"Next, the Vatican!"
The Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the French Army gave an order, and the [-] main force marched away, starting the journey for a great victory.
This time, the Vatican also did not adopt conservative tactics, and initiated a knight order of 10,000 people, claiming to launch a "Crusade" to gather the army and the outskirts of Rome.The pope didn't intend to defend the city, he had to fight hard to the end.
A decisive battle to determine the centrality of the Christian world has already been brewing.
Chapter 346 Holy War in the Vatican
Dark clouds overwhelm the city, and the sun cannot be seen.Birds fly in fright, beasts prostrate.
There are still some snowflakes flying in the winter, covering the majestic city of Rome. Ai Hayasaka visited once in the autumn thousands of years ago. Today, it is really beautiful and spectacular to take a look at the winter snow scene from a distance.
It's just that someone offered a scepter to welcome King Arthur into the city of Rome.This time, it was the [-] crusaders who were waiting for Joan of Arc in the Vatican.
At this time, a Crusader soldier ran between the two armies.
"The Pope of the Vatican, the protector of the Christian world, the patron of God's gift, the archbishop of Italy, Pius VII pays tribute, and sincerely invites Jeanne Darc, the first ruler of the French Republic, to discuss state affairs!"
"We will notify His Excellency the Consul."
A total of 70,000 people occupied the fields as far as the eye could see, and the messengers had to work hard to facilitate the conversation.
When the two armies are at war, the ceremony is followed by the soldiers.
After all, the whole world is paying attention to this epic super war. The conflict between France and the Vatican is the outbreak of the wave of the times, and no one is shocked by it.Even if they are far away from Rome, believers will remember the majesty of the Holy See.
Every move that is happening here will concern everyone's heartstrings. Even after a hundred years of Sanghai Sangtian, the history books will be written in large numbers:
At that moment, time stopped, the world was suffocated, and the [-] iron cavalry led by the first ruler came to the Vatican, just like Attila, the whip of God, pointed at the Western Roman Empire.
In this way, the greatest power in Europa is about to reach a meeting with the Christian Pope.
The pope and the surrounding bishops and paladins lined up. They each wore a gorgeous cross with a missionary aura, mysterious and solemn.
Pius VII was already a gray-haired old man, but his resolute face could not conceal his long-term ambition. Although he was very nervous, he longed for a grand confrontation. He only hoped that the metal melody of the clash of swords would be enough to comfort St. Peter's Basilica of the Holy Spirit.
Joan of Arc rode forward slowly on a strong horse.She kept the white robe and silver armor she had worn since she left for the war. The girl's blond hair was blown and fluttered by the strong wind, and her slightly narrowed blue eyes pointed sharply at the enemy.When Joan of Arc came to the front of the battle, the French soldiers were in a commotion, and even the Pope and his party on the opposite side were deeply moved.
The majestic power is boundless, and the figure with awe-inspiring aura has been honed through thousands of trials, and it really lives up to its reputation.
Asuna was one body behind, and the military uniform of the chestnut-haired girl had an even more battlefield atmosphere.Her figure is holy and her temperament is bloody and strong, as if walking slowly from the colorful religious paintings of myths and epics.
"Jeanne Darc, as the first ruler of France, don't you have eyesight?" The pope said angrily, trying to overwhelm others, "We stand on the moral side of the gods and are the embodiment of redemption."
"Withdrawing troops now, there is still room for detours in everything, don't be obsessed with obsession."
Joan responded with a sarcastic laugh at this arrogant statement.
"Absurd! Could it be that you have forgiven the blood debt owed by the Holy See? You keep talking about redemption, but you are just looking for psychological comfort for your own evil."
"The Crusades, the Atonement Scrolls, and witch hunts. There is no need for a decadent church in this progressive age. The French Republic is a secular country. We fully respect religious freedom. We will not punish heresies, launch jihads, or It will make the church a tool for making money. And all of you will be swept into the dustbin of history."
The pope's face darkened.
He thought in his heart that the first ruler was more sanctimonious than himself, and he opened his mouth to attack the black history, specifically attacking the dirtiest scandals.
However, the French Republic has just been established, and either has no black history or it is too late. There is no way to fight back directly in this regard, so we can only think of other angles:
"The spiritual life of church supporters who accept fate, educate the people, social welfare, and establish funds are all the grace of God."
"That's right." Joan nodded.
If you want to defeat the opponent verbally, you can't blindly oppose it. Expressing approval is also a strategy.
As the saying goes, it is convenient to stab the knife around the back.
"However, your church should not meddle in politics. You have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of any country in the Europa continent. Social welfare can but cannot be a tool for the church to interfere with freedom."
"Know: Give to God what is God's, and to Caesar what is Caesar's."
The pope was momentarily at a loss for words.
Over the years, the monarchs have long been displeased with the divine right of kings. They hate the church more than they hate French ideology. Once they seize the opportunity, they will definitely chase after it. The French army marching into the Holy See chose to ignore it, and even incited it.
After a series of debates between the Axiom of the Church and major European newspapers last time, the trend of public opinion was also unfavorable to the Church.
It turned out to be the Vatican that was isolated.
"Let's go to war, Joan!"
In an instant, ten thousand crusaders lit up with white brilliance, and none of them were purely living people but shadows of the undead from the past!
The Holy See has already placed its final card. The [-] crusaders summoned by the holy skeletal cloth have incomparably powerful combat power. They came from the distant battlefields of the Eastern Expedition, and brought the Vatican's accumulated faith for thousands of years. , with one as ten, the momentum is like a rainbow!
Ai Hayasaka frowned.
She saw that these people were different from the undead warriors of the barbarians and the heroic warriors of King Arthur's Noble Phantasm. The crusaders were human beings who had been strengthened by possession. Although their bodies were ordinary, they were more adaptable.
"Charge, the jihad has begun!" The pope raised the banner of the holy relics, and the crusaders came galloping.
Hayasaka Ai was about to order, but was stopped by Asuna, the chestnut-haired girl smiled sweetly:
"Leave it to me here."
Noble Phantasm Liberation - The Sword of Joyeuse! ! !
Asuna waved her hand to release the dazzling brilliance of fusion, the sword turned into a meteor and escaped into the sky, an aurora across the battlefield pulled out a fortress, and stalagmites rising from the ground intertwined like a city wall, making the charging crusaders turn their backs.Asuna exerted the power of nature represented by the title of "Sword of the Earth", and immediately propped up a seismic belt in the anti-city treasure, and the rolling waves actually drew a line and pierced through the walls of Rome!
The Crusaders immediately lost thousands of people, but they still collided with the French vanguard unabated, and the formation of the vanguard was suddenly critical!
The chestnut-haired girl raised her hand calmly, and the crystal clear branches sprinkled thousands of green raindrops from the sky.Everyone who was exposed to the rain and dew exclaimed, the wounds on their bodies healed quickly, and even fatigue disappeared.
Ai Hayasaka was dumbfounded.
I am a good guy, the Fountain of Youth is simply an artifact in team battles!What kind of cheating nurse is this!
No.5, it really is not easy to deal with.
Chapter 347 Summoning the Saint Heroic Spirit
With a wave of Asuna's hands, healed up to a hundred people, and more importantly, the elimination of abnormal states. These soldiers have high morale and fighting power when they get up.The place where the rain and dew touched was like a fortress, forcibly blocking the fierce offensive of the Crusaders.
What's more, with the bombardment of the sword of Joyeuse in front, the [-] French troops and the [-] crusaders' souls barely tied, and the pope's face was already ashen.
Could it be that the power of Shengkebu must be overdrawn this time!
"Stiacia, is there no limit to your Noble Phantasm, the Fountain of Youth?" Joan of Arc seemed to inadvertently ask.
"Of course, everything is exchanged at equal value." Asuna confessed without thinking, "The fountain of youth cannot be used first, there must be a treasure to arouse its power. Unable to activate other Noble Phantasms."
"But, didn't you take it out the first time you treated me!"
The chestnut-haired girl smiled triumphantly.
"The flashing light of my precious treasure has been wandering in the sky of Paris, and I can barely maintain the activation to pave the way for the fountain of youth to be used at any time, so my magic power was so weak that even assassins could not beat it. But this is to ensure that I can return to perfection at any time Status, in the game...cough, it’s usually like this!”
Hayasaka nodded understandingly. She obtained key information about No.5, at least she knew that the Fountain of Youth was not invincible.
Suppose, how can Artoria's character card win against Stacia?Although I don't know the star rating of Asuna's character card, but I think No. 5 must be no less than three stars, and it is quite a strong opponent.
To plan ahead, it is necessary to collect intelligence on top players.
"Another point is that the Fountain of Youth has very limited healing effects on people other than me. For example, the effect of Jeanna's complete recovery from the near-death state is only once a day. Therefore, even if they are slightly injured, these soldiers must be treated in time. If they have been injured The Fountain of Youth only has one chance for them."
"As for myself, although the healing of Master by the Fountain of Youth is accompanied by the pain of a curse, as long as I endure it, there is no limit to the number of times after all." Asuna laughed.
She took the most tragic way of clearing her personal plot in one stroke, using the Fountain of Youth to heal hundreds of times repeatedly, fighting the evil dragon Nidhogg with bare hands, biting each other in the double pain of injury and healing, tearing off the last piece of flesh and blood until victory .
The battle of the Valkyrie is tragic, and the role of Stacia is infused with the essence of the girl's soul, which is the eulogy of Yuki Asuna's self-life.
It's a pity that I still lost to Ragnarok in [Epic Mode] in the end, which only added embarrassment.
I just hope that there will be no regrets in the plot of Europa Universalis...
"Stiacia, you don't need to use the Fountain of Youth on yourself with me." Joan nodded solemnly.
Asuna's heart warmed, she smiled and said, "Jeanna, you also have to be careful not to leave the 500 meters coverage of the treasure, so that you can be healed by the fountain of youth at any time."
"I'm going to find the Pope. If I can catch him and grab the holy relic, this war will be over."
Joan of Arc stood up directly from the horseback, turned into a crimson shooting star and rushed towards the rear of the Crusaders, like a phoenix flying high.
The treasure of the Red Lotus Saintess is like a fighter jet when she is on the road. With the roar of the sonic boom, it smashes through the arc-shaped atmospheric barrier, rumbles across the battlefield like thunder, and leaves the reach of the green rain and dew in the blink of an eye.
Asuna watched from afar, and murmured:
"Jianna, I told you not to stay so far away...Forget it, your strength is enough to protect yourself."
The pope started to retreat from the moment he announced the charge. He was not the type who would fight with the army. Facing the battlefield of swords, lights and swords, he rushed towards the inner city of the Vatican immediately, and left in embarrassment under the escort of a group of knights. However, the commander of the Crusaders, who had just started, behaved like a defeated general.
When he saw a meteor coming from the sky, he was almost frightened and ran even faster.
However, how can the speed of the horse escape the supersonic speed!
"Get out of the way!"
Suddenly, the knight next to the Pope pushed him away, and then a ball of flames hit the ground fiercely. The heat and pressure from the pavement made the Pope keep curling the holy relic cloth as a shield for defense.This energy is so terrifying, a face-to-face creates a two-meter-deep crater on the ground, and the bottom layer only has traces of magma burning.
The horse's corpse smelled of burning, and the knight's body and metal armor were melted into one, and the protective armor became a veritable iron coffin, making a squeak.
Holding a sword in one hand and a battle flag in the other, the blond girl paced forward from the flames and looked at the Pope with a bird's-eye view:
"Hehe, I didn't expect the dignified pope to run away. It's ironic."
"Hmph, I'm different from your warriors."
The old man propped himself up, straightened his back, and his gaze was like a torch. At this moment, he did have the aura of a superior, like a religious leader who shocked the Christian world.
"I have all the same black spots as those corrupt missionaries you satirize, but I am also a believer, with the responsibility of the Pope on my shoulders so I have something I can't back down. The Vatican - can't fall!"
Pius VII pulled back the shroud, and a silhouette of a human figure was slightly reflected on it, which looked like the face of a man.
Ai Hayasaka's face was stern, she had witnessed the world-renowned sacred object that was also famous in reality.
Shroud of Turin!
The linen cloth is about 4 meters long and 1 meter wide. The front and back imprints show a tall man with a beard. His hands and feet are injured and there are traces of blood seepage. The clear outline comes from Jesus thousands of years ago. According to the records of the Bible, Jesus suffered The last body was collected by a good man named Joseph, wrapped in sackcloth and placed in a stone tomb. It is this famous and controversial Shroud of Turin!
"Jeanne Darc, don't underestimate the accumulation of the Catholic Church over the past thousand years. An upstart in Orleans is still far behind!"
Pius VII's hand pinch technique, with the help of the holy relic cloth to activate the power!
Summoning!
