Synthesis Wizard
Chapter 124: Eternal Life Society
August, 1254th year of the Starlight Calendar.
Marquis Hulan was killed in the Marquis's mansion.
The entire family was destroyed overnight.
When the news came out, the upper echelons of the Principality of Stars were in an uproar.
The nobles of the royal family were in danger, fearing that they would be killed by Sunan in the middle of the night.
The Hulan Province also fell into a situation of being leaderless because of the death of Marquis Hulan and the extinction of all his heirs.
Taking this opportunity, Baron Starley, who was stationed in Jinmai City, led his troops northward and captured four towns including Ya'an City in just half a month, with an unstoppable momentum.
If most of the troops of the Flash Territory were not in the other two provinces, Baron Starley would have had a small army under his command, and I'm afraid he would have been enough to take down the entire Hulan Province.
In the same year, the month of harvest (September).
The Flash Army captured Soman City, the central city of Soman Province, and the new Marquis Soman was captured.
At this point, the entire Soman Province fell into the hands of the Shining Territory.
After three days of rest, the Shining Marquis led his army to set out, heading straight for the Zizhu Province, and together with Baron Jodon stationed in Mengguang City, they besieged the Zizhu Province. In less than a month, they captured more than two-thirds of the territory of the Zizhu Province.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the fall of the Zizhu Province was a foregone conclusion.
On the other hand, the royal family, the Red Leaf Province army is still fighting with the White Tower Marquis. Although it has the upper hand, there is still no sign that it can take over the White Tower Province in a short time.
As for the Ranshuang Province, it is still under reconstruction and its military strength can be ignored.
At this point, the direction of the war has been completely reversed.
Many people who were optimistic about the royal family and mocked the Shining Territory for being stupid have lost their voices.
Instead, the Shining Territory's remarks on subverting the royal family are becoming more and more rampant.
In the tavern, in the room.
Sunan stared at the golden light slowly swirling in his palm, with a happy smile on his face.
[Divine energy, 12 standard units, completely purified pure energy, can be converted into any form of energy. ]
"Success!"
"Completely unpolluted pure energy!"
After draining all the divine grace of the holy objects, Sunan finally synthesized 12 standard units of pure divine energy.
Without hesitation, he twisted his fingers on the spot and wrapped the golden light around his fingers, and then pressed it on the center of his eyebrows.
Under the traction of the invisible mental power, the golden light slowly sank into the center of his eyebrows and disappeared.
A familiar feeling of sublimation suddenly surged from the depths of his mind!
This is the feeling brought by the substantial increase in mental power in a short period of time.
Sunan closed his eyes tightly and patiently converted the divine energy into mental power bit by bit.
After an unknown period of time, the last trace of divine energy was finally exhausted. Sunan opened his eyes and opened the panel immediately.
[Spirit 41.26]
"Not bad, an increase of 3.02!"
Sunan smiled with satisfaction.
The divine energy did not disappoint him.
If a new star ring is not built, it will take at least three or four years of meditation to increase this much mental power if it is practiced normally.
In addition, the growth of mental power can also increase the speed of proficiency growth of the star ring meditation method.
"The specific growth rate needs to be practiced to know."
"But there is no rush for this, let's deal with the affairs of the Spark Church first."
Sunan stood up and walked to the window, opened the window and looked at the street below.
After killing Ovijiu and Marquis Hulan, he went to Ju Nan City in Hongye Province without stopping.
This is also the headquarters of the Spark Church.
After Grand Duke Fanxing designated the Spark Church as the state religion, Ju Nan City has actually become the territory of the Spark Church.
The entire city has actually been controlled by the Spark Church, and even the city guards have been replaced by the so-called Holy Church of the Spark Church.
The warriors wearing armor and star map cloaks that Sunan saw at the Marquis Hulan's mansion that night were members of the Holy Church.
Sunan originally thought that after Ovijiu's death, Junan City should be under martial law, and the guards would become more strict.
But when he arrived in Junan City, he found that the actual situation was completely different from what he expected.
The city was still peaceful, and people were coming and going on the streets, just like a normal town.
On the contrary, the soldiers of the Holy Order stationed at the city gate looked a little worried and absent-minded.
Listening to the discussion of the guests in the tavern, it seems that the people of the Holy Order are rarely seen patrolling the streets these days.
The worship ceremony held every three days by the Star Fire Church has also been stopped several times.
From various clues, the upper echelons of the Star Fire Church seem to have fallen into chaos, which has affected the people below.
Sunan felt a little strange.
Even if Ovijiu died, the Star Fire Church would not be so panicked.
It was only the high priest who died, not the Pope.
Shaking his head, Sunan activated the invisible robe, jumped out of the window, and walked towards the headquarters of the Star Fire Church.
Anyway, let's finish with the Spark Church today.
Let's see if we can harvest another wave of holy objects.
The Spark Church headquarters is located in the center of Ju Nan City. It was originally the residence of the lord of Ju Nan City, but now it has been converted into the church headquarters.
When Sunan arrived there, he unexpectedly found that there was no guard at the door.
The door was open, and there was a dead silence inside.
Sunan vaguely felt that something was wrong.
This didn't look like a trap.
Originally, he wanted to use the same trick again, using the golem puppet to attack the Spark Church headquarters, forcing out all the power of the Spark Church and then waiting for an opportunity to act, but now he changed his mind and rushed in directly.
Walking through the gate and the corridor, we came to a wide courtyard.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Sunan saw the dense skeletons scattered on the ground.
There were no less than a hundred pale skeletons lying on the ground.
If you look closely, you can see the fine bite marks on the bones, which seem to be left by some small creatures.
There are still many broken pieces of cloth on the ground around, and it can be vaguely seen that it is the star map cloak unique to the Star Fire Religion.
".It seems that I was beaten to it."
Su Nan's eyes flashed with doubt.
Besides him, who else has such a big hatred with the Star Fire Religion that he would not hesitate to attack the headquarters of the Star Fire Religion?
Although he was confused, Sunan did not slow down and walked inside quickly.
Along the way, various pale skeletons can be seen. Judging from the traces of battle around, the invaders are extremely powerful, and the Star Fire Religionists have almost no power to resist. It is a one-sided massacre.
After entering the backyard, Sunan finally heard the sound of fighting in front of him.
He slowed down his pace and walked forward silently.
A fierce battle was taking place in the wide atrium.
On one side of the battle were hundreds of Spark Cultists, who formed a semicircular defensive formation with their backs against the building.
On the other side, to Sunan's surprise, there were a group of insects.
They looked a bit like bees, but their heads were round mouthparts covered with dense sharp teeth, which looked a bit creepy.
Although these insects were not big, only the size of eggs, they moved very quickly, and their teeth were extremely sharp. They could bite a conspicuous gap in the armor of the Spark Cultists with one bite.
Sunan understood where the bite marks on the bones he had seen before came from.
Those people were eaten alive by these insects in front of him, including their skin and flesh.
"Wizard apprentice?"
Sunan narrowed his eyes slightly.
These insects looked like the work of wizard apprentices.
At this moment, a buzzing sound suddenly came, and another group of insects flew out from another entrance of the atrium.
Seeing this scene, the Spark Cultists showed despair.
They were already about to collapse, and now there was another group of terrible insects, which was simply adding insult to injury.
But the scene that happened immediately afterwards surprised them.
The group of insects did not fly towards them, but rushed towards another entrance of the atrium with great momentum.
"We've been discovered!"
Sunan frowned, opened his mouth directly, and suddenly emitted a huge sound wave from his mouth.
Crushing sound wave!
A group of visible twists and turns roared out, hitting the insect swarm like a cannonball, and a large number of insects were instantly torn and shattered.
The originally dense insect swarm seemed to have been dug out a large piece, and a blank space appeared out of thin air.
Sunan then waved his hand, and a large piece of flame surged out, burning the remaining insects completely.
At the moment of attack, Sunan left the invisible state and revealed his figure.
The Spark Cultists not far away were dumbfounded.
The insect swarm that they had tried their best to barely resist was easily wiped out by the mysterious man in front of them. This scene made them feel like they were dreaming.
A person in the crowd who seemed to be of high status quickly recognized Sunan's appearance and exclaimed:
"Sunan!"
The believers were shocked and their eyes changed when they looked at Sunan.
Is this person Sunan?
The wizard who defeated the military deployment of Hulan Province with his own strength and killed the high priest of Ovijiu?
A group of people suddenly groaned inwardly.
The enemy in front of them was already difficult to deal with, and now there is another terrible and powerful enemy. It seems that they will not be able to escape today.
Ignoring the reactions of the Spark Cultists, Sunan turned his head and looked at the entrance of the atrium diagonally opposite.
"Come out, don't hide."
A low laugh sounded, and a gray-robed man walked out from the corner.
Sunan couldn't help but frowned slightly when his eyes fell on the man's face.
It was because the man's appearance was too abstract.
It looked like a mixture of a human and an insect's face, ferocious and disgusting. In one word, it was a bit sanity-depleting.
The gray-white skin exposed outside bulged and twisted from time to time, as if something was wriggling underneath.
"A wizard apprentice with the blood of some insect beast?"
Sunan understood slightly.
"As expected of a wizard apprentice who could kill Ovijiu, he really has some skills."
The gray-robed man stared at Sunan with his eyes like insect compound eyes.
"You are here for the God's bones, too."
God's bones?
Sunan's expression moved.
Is this the reason behind the Spark Cult's possession of God's blood and holy objects?
But where did this person come from, and why did he know the secrets of the Spark Cult?
Thinking rapidly in his mind, Su Nan remained calm and said lightly: "So what?"
The gray-robed man grinned in a terrifying arc, revealing a weird smile.
"It's a pity that you have to give up. The remains of the Spark Cult, we, the Eternal Life Society, must get them."
The Eternal Life Society?
The wizard apprentice organization?
If that's the case, listening to the name, these wizard apprentices seem to have great ambitions.
"You want to pick peaches?" Su Nan sneered.
It can be said that he almost defeated the Spark Cult alone. This so-called wizard apprentice of the Eternal Life Society did nothing, but jumped out to pick peaches at the last moment. How could he tolerate such a thing?
"So you don't plan to give up?" The gray-robed man laughed.
Sunan didn't waste any words and fired a spell missile directly.
Seven spell missiles whizzed and hit the gray-robed man, but the latter's body exploded with a bang, turning into a sky full of insects and flying away, rushing out of the courtyard, leaving only a cold word.
"You will regret it!"
Sunan was slightly startled. He didn't expect the gray-robed man to speak so arrogantly, but he ran away so decisively.
This is inconsistent with his words and deeds!
After confirming that the gray-robed man really left, Sunan shook his head and turned his eyes to the group of Spark Cult members.
As the gray-robed man left, the insects also flew away one after another. The surviving Spark Cult members collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, looking at Sunan with fear.
One evil spirit left, but there is another one in front of him.
Sunan looked at the old man who recognized him at the first time and asked, "Who was that man just now?"
"I, I don't know too much." The old man answered with some fear, "That man had sneaked into the church headquarters once before, but was repelled by Archbishop Oviju."
When Archbishop Oviju was mentioned, the old man looked at the man in front of him with more fear.
After all, Archbishop Oviju was said to have died at the hands of the man in front of him.
Sunan also reacted at this time. It turned out that the gray-robed man knew that he couldn't beat him, so he left without any delay.
Was he going back to get help?
However, the gray-robed man was at least quite strong among the third-level wizard apprentices because he could escape from Oviju's hands.
It seems that the Eternal Life Society is not a second-rate force. I have to ask other people at the next gathering.
"Where is the God's Remains?" Sunan asked again.
"I don't know what God's Remains are." The old man looked confused.
Sunan frowned, threw a charm human, and asked again, but got the same answer.
Others were also unaware.
After thinking for a while, Sunan asked again: "Where is your pope?"
"The pope is still in seclusion." The old man glanced at the building behind him.
Obviously, that was the place where the pope of the Spark Church was in seclusion.
Sunan sneered: "Such a big thing happened, and your pope still has the mind to retreat. He is quite calm."
Below the pope, the Spark Church is the archpriest Oviju and the three archpriests Jensen, Yoris and Blake.
Now these four people have died at the hands of Sunan without exception, and the top leaders of the Spark Church can be said to have been wiped out.
It is really incomprehensible that their pope has not come out to take charge of the situation at this time and is still in seclusion.
No wonder the Spark Church is in chaos now, and even the headquarters was attacked and almost all the believers were killed.
"The secret room where the Pope is in seclusion is made of refined steel. Even a legendary knight cannot break it from the outside. The key to enter the secret room is only owned by Archbishop Oviju. We can't open the secret room at all, and we can't contact the Pope."
Key?
Sunan thought about it and shook his head.
When killing Oviju, he was a little heavy-handed. Except for the holy objects, Oviju and everything on his body were destroyed by him without leaving any residue. Even if there was a key, it would have been gone long ago.
It seems that I have to change this habit of being too heavy-handed in the future.
Concentrating his thoughts, Sunan looked at the building in front of him.
He is getting more and more curious now.
According to the descriptions of these believers, the Pope of the Spark Church rarely shows up, and Oviju presides over the affairs of the church most of the time.
Even Oviju is the only one who can see and contact the Pope.
This is undoubtedly very abnormal.
It is almost equivalent to that the Spark Church is completely controlled by Oviju alone, and the Pope is completely dispensable.
This is obviously not a normal church phenomenon.
