My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 354 The dust has settled
Five days later.
The early morning sun dispersed the gray fog, and Croun faced the rising sun and meditated on the golden light spell.
The golden and silver auras on his body circulated in turns, shining brightly in the sunlight. From a distance, it looked like a bright mirror reflecting light.
With the stimulation of the visualization method, the energy of life that is sometimes cool and sometimes warm flows spontaneously throughout the body along a specific trajectory.
In the sea of consciousness, the gold and silver sphere shines brightly. When it shines with silver light, the surfaces of the two driving spirits flash brightly in response. At this moment, the joyful emotions of the driving spirits can be felt.
Yuling prefers silver light, and its activity is much lower under golden light.
According to Crown's understanding, when the golden light shines, it means visualizing the red sun, which is equivalent to putting the spirit into a forge to smelt it, removing the waste and retaining the essence, which is a kind of torture for the spirit.
Although this can slowly increase the upper limit of the spirit control, the two of them feel too bad. The spirit control is transformed from an evil spirit. It belongs to the yin attribute and is tempered by the power of the blazing sun. Only ghosts can feel comfortable.
The situation is different when the silver glow shines. At that time, you are imagining the full moon shining silently, and the sea of consciousness is filled with the power of the Yin spirit that nourishes the soul, which is an excellent tonic for controlling the spirit.
Crown understood that it was the tempering of the power of yin and yang brought about by the visualization that allowed the two spirit masters to advance much faster than other spirit masters. It was not just that he often used the spirit control ability, but also this The merit of tempering is greater.
He hadn't noticed it before when the Golden Light Curse was still relatively low-level, but this feeling became much more obvious after the Golden Light Curse advanced to the fourth level.
In the past few days, order in the city has been restored, and the blood stains in St. Peter's Cathedral have been washed away by many extraordinary beings.
Due to the tragic deaths of many high-level transcendent beings, resentment has become a reality, and many evil spirits have spawned in the church.
Crown worked tirelessly to "wash" the place again with golden light, and his proficiency in the golden light spell increased a lot.
Although his proficiency has increased a lot, his mood is very complicated. It is not his original intention to use the souls of the slaughtered church members to improve himself.
But thinking that he could avenge these wronged souls in the future, he gradually felt calmer.
The roar of the airship passing by resounded in the sky, and Crown ended the visualization cycle and summoned the golden wall.
[Golden Light Spell: 167638/300000; Level 4]
[Breath of the Flame Dragon: 75276/120000; Level 1]
[Healing Wind: 3154/8000; Level 3]
Perhaps there is too much killing here, and the spirituality in the air has become dark and heavy, but it has brought a more suitable environment for the golden light spell to be used, and the proficiency increased through visualization is much more than usual.
Kroon treated a large number of wounded again, and the healing wind also made great progress.
Breath of the Flame Dragon didn't have time to practice, mainly because he was worried that the dragon power of the dragon soul would affect the wounded, so he relied entirely on the golden light spell to increase his passive power.
The golden color in his eyes faded, he walked out of the room and looked up at the sky.
Three huge airships were hovering at low altitude on the outskirts of the city, seemingly looking for a place to land.
The parking lot in Bly City was deliberately damaged. Now the troops in the city are mainly engaged in rescue work and cannot spare the energy to clean up there.
Crown noticed that the royal emblem was painted on the skin of the airship, and he knew that the Saxon family had arrived.
He narrowed his eyes and spread out his rose-gold wings behind him, making him look like an angel descending into the mortal world.
He bent his legs slightly and then straightened up suddenly. There was a flash of golden light, and his whole body was like a rocket taking off, leaving a golden path in the sky.
On the airship, Arthur overlooked the city through the viewing window. He came back only a handful of times every year, and spent most of his time in Firestone City.
His eyes were solemn, and his thick king's beard also trembled with a bit of seriousness.
Lerol stood behind him, with a bit of sadness in his words:
"This is the seat of our lord's Holy See and the capital of the Farouk Kingdom. But now it has been destroyed like this. It is really a pity."
About half of the city was scorched black, and the fire was obviously serious.
Fortunately, St. Peter's Basilica was not affected, retaining the last trace of dignity of the Flame Lord Church.
They were the only two people from the Saxon family who came this time of Silver rank. Lexis and Prince Thain stayed in Firestone. They were worried that coming here would cause a conflict with the surviving Silver rank transcendents of the church. After all, they were imaginary enemies. There is a fifth-level transcendent.
In case something bad happens to them, the royal family can also leave a spark of fire.
After summarizing the information sent back by intelligence personnel, they learned that the current situation in Bly City had generally stabilized.
In this way, the church has regained control of the city, but half of the city has been burned to ruins by fire, and everything is in ruins. This is a great opportunity for them to expand the influence of the royal family.
Seemingly noticing Arthur's solemnity, Lerol said:
"Your Majesty, no matter what, Osman, as the Pope, must bear the main responsibility for this incident. It is reasonable for us to come here this time."
Arthur closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly opened his eyes:
"These words are actually meaningless, they just make both sides look better. In the end, force has to be used to speak. What I am most worried about is the attitude of Croun Moya.
If he has the ambition to become the pope, I don’t know how many archbishops are willing to follow him.
We have never had direct contact with each other, and this meeting is very important for our future plans. "
According to intelligence, Osman has not been seen in public for several days. It is not known whether he was injured or for other reasons.
They privately judged that the Pope was probably seriously injured and had reached an irreversible point, otherwise it would be a good idea for the church to introduce a stand-in.
The information they had about Crown was how the other party presented it to the outside world. Arthur never expected to judge a person's temperament based solely on information.
What he is worried about is a direct conflict with the remaining forces of the church. In that case, no matter who wins, it will not be a good thing for the Faruk Kingdom.
The threat of evil gods has greatly reduced the disputes among churches in the mainland, but if a church (state) suddenly weakens, those treaties that were once signed will be a piece of waste paper.
If there was anyone who least wanted the kingdom to decline, it was Arthur Saxon.
“I think this time”
Before Lerol could finish his words, he saw a touch of gold filling his field of vision. He saw a man with golden armor and wings on his back standing outside the window. The eyes exposed by the other person were as deep as abyss. He felt like he was being seen through. The illusion of the soul.
Arthur saw the sudden appearance of the figure and immediately knew the origin of the target.
He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, tried his best to smile peacefully, and waved to the other party, and Croun bowed slightly in return.
The airship landed slowly, and Lerol exhaled: "The target has appeared. It seems that he is very wary of our arrival. What should we do?"
Their airship met the target before it landed, and he always felt that the other party was announcing something to them as a master.
"Let nature take its course. We will proceed as planned. The primary purpose of coming today is to let the public see the Saxon family's stance. As long as he does not prevent us from doing so, everything will be negotiable."
Before coming, they had made plans and envisioned various situations. If the archbishops of the church stopped them from helping the city, it meant that these archbishops had completely broken with them.
The airship shook suddenly and landed on a flatter patch of grass.
When the king stepped out of the airship's hatch, Crown was already waiting outside. He bowed slightly:
"The Bishop of Rhine City, Crown Moya, has met His Majesty the King."
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he dug out a pile of gold shields under the stove after traveling to this world. The king's profile portrait was printed on the gold shield.
Now when he compared the person in front of him, he only had one feeling, it was so similar.
Arthur's slightly tense expression immediately relaxed. He felt no malice from the other party, and the other party did not deliberately conflict. He felt that in his heart:
"Bishop Crown's reputation has spread throughout the continent, but I have never been able to see him. Now that I have achieved my wish, I am very happy.
If the church and the kingdom can have great talents like you, why worry about not being able to prosper. "
His words are full of temptations. If the other party does not refute his last sentence, it largely means that he has no intention of going against the Saxon family.
Kroun heard the deep meaning in the other party's words. He just smiled slightly and said:
"The prosperity of the church and the kingdom relies on everyone's concerted efforts. Unless a person advances to Stigma Gold, his influence will be limited after all.
His Majesty the King is a descendant of the Lord of Fire, so he should unite all forces that can be united to do his part for the prosperity of the church. "
"Haha, that's right. Prosperity depends on everyone's efforts."
Arthur's mood improved greatly, at least he could hear the kindness conveyed by the other party in the language.
He paused and continued:
"I came here this time and brought a lot of relief supplies and a large number of elite troops. What is the current situation in the city?"
"It has settled down, and Archbishop Flanders is leading everyone in the reconstruction work."
Arthur asked tentatively: "Where is His Majesty the Pope? With the current situation in the city, it is most important for him to come out and calm people's hearts."
Crown didn't answer the question and said with a smile:
"Your Majesty must be feeling tired after a long journey. How about we discuss it in detail after the dinner?"
Arthur's eyes narrowed, and he nodded: "That's fine."
The main members of the king's party were arranged in the guest room of the church. Outside the guest room, an elite team accompanying them was responsible for security work.
Lerol looked at the sunset outside the window and said with a gloomy look:
"Are they putting us under house arrest?"
"Not necessarily," Arthur sat on a high-backed armchair, leisurely poured a glass of red wine and took a sip, "Good wine."
He changed to a more comfortable position and said:
“There are so few people in the church that even if we wanted to put us under house arrest, it would be impossible.
In addition, I felt a bright and fiery power of law in the church that was different from the holy power. This power of law was everywhere.
Obviously, someone is using the power of these laws to cover up something. I guess that this church must have experienced something dark and bloody in the past few days.
If something tragic like that happened here, I have a hunch that there is little chance that Osman would still be alive. "
As the Pope, the center of the Holy See was actually attacked by enemies, which showed how bad the situation would be at that time.
The only thing he didn't understand was that the Pope could be hurt in the presence of so many Silver Bishops.
Could it be that there were serious divisions within the church, and forces loyal to the pope were forced to fight alone?
Arthur stood up suddenly, feeling extremely excited about this speculation in his heart. If this was true, the possibility that the Saxon family would want to re-enter St. Peter's Cathedral would further increase.
Lerol saw the deep smile on the king's face, and a big question mark arose in his mind. He said without remembering:
"What did you think of?"
After Crown released the healing wind, he patted Drago on the back and said with a smile:
"Your injuries recovered quickly and are no longer serious."
"Thank you, Your Excellency. Even the spells released by specially trained healing priests are not as effective as your healing wind."
Drago's words were not a compliment. Every time he received a round of treatment, he felt deeply tired. This was the sequelae of the source of life being stimulated. The same spells released by the healing priests were completely unable to stimulate his own energy. Self-healing power.
"You're welcome. Remember to pay me the bill for the Water of Life in the future. And you, Leo, you two share the cost. Five hundred gold spirit coins per person, isn't that excessive?"
In view of the fact that they are colleagues, there is no charge for treating the wounded, but the spiritual objects used cannot be free of charge.
Leo showed an honest smile: "Not too much, not at all. I will also give you generous gifts to thank you for your generosity."
"Me too," Drago echoed. The gold spirit coin is a small thing, but the kindness of saving a life is a big thing.
If there was no water of life at that time, they would probably have died. At that time, there was not even a healing priest in the church.
Flanders clapped his hands and said:
"The cost of saving lives will be calculated later. Now that the Saxon family is here, I want to ask everyone for their opinions."
Crown was unwilling to serve as pope. It would be difficult for any of them to compete with the royal family for the papacy. They were willing to surrender, but were worried about the liquidation of the royal family in the future.
The safest thing is to hold your destiny in your own hands.
Leo considered his words and spoke slowly:
"Your Excellency Crown is not willing to be the pope, but the forces we control are relatively scattered. It is really difficult to compete with the Saxon family.
I think we can form an alliance and we can advance and retreat together in any situation in the future.
The threat of the evil god is getting closer and closer, and the Saxon family's attention will slowly be drawn away, and then they will have to rely on us. "
Ivan nodded slightly:
"This is a good idea. We can ask to serve as cardinal archbishops in adjacent areas, so that we can take care of each other."
Crown nodded: "I agree."
For him, fighting for power and profit with the Saxon family is the most cost-effective thing, and it is far less promising than growing rapidly in one place.
If Farouk's situation stabilizes, he can travel to neighboring areas to promote the rapid progress of the Golden Light Spell by purifying contaminated areas of starry creatures.
As long as the strength belongs to himself, he is not afraid of any wind and rain from the outside world.
