Volume 2: Empire Chapter 215 The Final Mission
The first Holy Scripture Theresa was defeated?
The angels surrounding the duel arena and supporting the protective barrier all showed incredible expressions. Just now, Theresa and the elf Qingkong were evenly matched, and even on the scene, Theresa seemed to have the advantage in the air.
But Theresa suddenly became like a headless fly, running around in the air, and finally crashed into the ground barrier of the duel arena.
What happened?
The angels were all confused.
The royal family, nobles, ministers, and citizens who were watching the battle from the palace were also confused. As an angel born with the ability to fly, she actually fell from the air. The reversal was too exaggerated.
But no matter whether the angel Theresa got dizzy in the sky or was hit by some kind of spell, Miss Clear Sky won anyway.
In the entire Saint Lun City, no one regards Qingkong as a foreigner. Although she holds the title of Queen of the Moonlight Court, she is also a professor at the Imperial Oulu College and a senator of the Raging Waves City.
She is our national goddess... Miss Clear Sky!
After a period of silence, a bunch of magical fireworks rose into the sky and exploded, bringing the city of Saint Lun into a fireworks celebration.
"Ms. Clear Sky won! She defeated the Holy Angel Theresa, the first Holy Scripture, in the Imperial Palace. She was an angel who had participated in the ancient war, but she was still defeated by our Miss Clear Sky...
Beautiful Miss Qingkong, her strength is as unrivaled as her beauty!"
The news of Qingkong's victory over Theresa spread throughout the entire city of Saint Lun along with circles of expanding magic fireworks.
Humans like angels, and they like the news that Miss Clear Sky defeated the angels even more.
Miss Qingkong lives beside him, and she is teaching her students what she has learned. If you can become Miss Qingkong's student, you will definitely gain the power to defeat the angels in the future...
The impact of this war is gradually fermenting.
Qingkong walked to the fallen Theresa, she released the "Time Reversal" and stretched out her hand to Theresa: "You fought well, you are the strongest opponent I have ever met."
The time limit for awakening has not yet arrived, so Qingkong decides to play freely and expand his acting range.
Theresa, who had regained her sense of direction, did not appreciate Qingkong's kindness. She flew up to avoid Qingkong's outstretched hand, and then hovered in the air.
Theresa looked up at the clear starry sky, then said unconvincedly: "The time and location of the duel are both in your favor. This is not a fair duel."
“Isn’t this a fair duel?” Qingkong said as she walked forward step by step. Ice steps formed under her feet. She walked in front of Theresa and continued to move forward step by step: “Before the duel started, you probably didn’t think so.”
Theresa flew backwards: "I admit that you are very strong and can even use time and space skills proficiently, but... I was just careless for a moment. If... if..."
Qingkong pressed on: "What if? If you don't accept it, we can make another appointment. You decide the time and place... If you don't accept it, I will beat you until you accept it!"
Theresa no longer had the arrogance and momentum she had when she first appeared. She retreated under the pressure of the clear sky, which meant that she no longer had the confidence that she could win in one more fight.
But even during the most difficult times of ancient wars, he never flinched in the face of any powerful enemy.
Theresa stopped retreating. She looked into the clear sky and said, "Okay, let's fight again. I'll decide the time and place!"
Qingkong and Theresa looked at each other: "I'm always here for you!"
The spiritual orb floating on Qingkong's shoulder and the sacred book floating on Theresa's shoulder sent out electric chains to protest to each other.
Inside the heavily protected palace hall, Queen Christina and Princess Agatha stared at the magic projection in front of them. In the circle formed by many angels , Qingkong stood on an ice platform and confronted Theresa who was floating in the air.
"The duel just now was really exciting!" After a long silence, Queen Christina slowly exhaled a long breath: "Miss Qingkong is more powerful than we thought. I am afraid that their fight will tear down the palace."
Agatha stared at the magic projection, and her heart was also very excited: "Fortunately, Miss Qingkong is on our side. When the news of this battle spreads, our opponents will have to carefully calculate the cost of being our enemy."
"Yes, fortunately Miss Qingkong is on our side. But we only have one Miss Qingkong..."
After Queen Christina finished speaking, Agatha fell into deep thought.
Since the invasion of angels, the Imperial Court and the Secret Service have been actively formulating countermeasures.
The long-term solution is to increase investment in research on powerful individuals and create warriors and weapons that can fight against angels.
The short-term solution is to ask the strong men scattered throughout the empire to come to the imperial capital to deal with the emergencies caused by this group of descending angels.
But strong men like Dean Wilred all have their own things to do and cannot stay in the imperial capital for a long time. If nothing happens, these strong men will be idle, which will be an immeasurable loss to the empire.
Although Miss Clear Sky defeated Theresa this time, Theresa is not the strongest angel. Miss Clear Sky's fighting power is a ceiling that is difficult to reach in the secular world.
After waiting for a long time, the angels above the palace followed Theresa away, and Agatha said: "The war in the north against the Art County Alliance and the war in the south against the Tedega Hills must be ended as soon as possible, and the empire's strategy needs to be significantly adjusted.
The arrival of the angels is just the beginning. In the last ancient war, humans were just bystanders and victims. This time... a new civilization collision is about to come. As we are standing at the table for the first time, we must be fully prepared. "
Queen Christina looked at Agatha and said, “I think that when Meteorite returns from Tedega Hill this time, he will definitely bring us good news.
Besides… Whether I continue to be the regent or become the first empress of the empire, I am just a transition. If the empire wants to be strong in stability and participate in new civilization wars, the future emperor of the empire must have the bloodline of Augustine and obtain the unreserved support of the City of Raging Waves.
You should understand what I mean."
"I..." Agatha certainly understood what Queen Christina meant, and she also thought of what her father said to her before he died. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "I understand!"
Queen Christina continued to look at Agatha, with an indescribable look in her eyes: "This is our helplessness. Since we are born in such a family, everyone's destiny is not under our control.
I envy you very much, at least you have a good impression of him, he is a person worthy of trust."
Agatha's thoughts wandered, and she couldn't help but look at the clear sky in the magic projection: "But he is not someone we can control."
The sacred mountain of Tedega Hills.
After dawn, there was a knock on Luke's door.
The one who came was the Storm Barbarian Nachhar, holding a beautifully wrapped gift box in both hands, followed by a team of fully armed barbarian warriors armed with long-handled battle axes.
"Mr. Luke, good morning!" Storm Nachhar was very respectful to Luke. He presented the gift box and said, "This is the Duke's crown given to you by the Duke of Celtic. The Duke ordered me to lead a team of elite armored barbarians to escort you out of the Holy Mountain."
Luke took the gift box and said to Storm Nachihar, "I still have to go back to Fekechik's house. Mr. Fekechik asked me to take something to Raging Waves City."
Storm Naqihar made way for the door: "No matter where you go, sir, we will protect you."
"Let's go!"
Luke left the Duke's Castle under the escort of a team of armored barbarians. There were fewer barbarian warriors in the castle. Along the way, the city militia had already blocked the road early, and all the citizens were ordered to stay at home.
A tense atmosphere permeated the entire holy mountain.
The newly formed human race Grey Wolf Battalion was also called out this time, and all members participated in the task of martial law in the city. Moreover, Baron Sergei did not abide by the agreement with Count Rammutu. All the soldiers of the Grey Wolf Battalion wore new armor and pulled out all the war weapons that they were not familiar with.
Facing the barbarians, the human soldiers were no longer as cowardly as before. They were all in high spirits, as if they were the ones who won the strongman championship in the Duke's Castle last night.
When these human militiamen saw their inspector general and idol, they immediately sent out a team of a hundred people to escort Luke to Fecochik's home.
Mrs. Fecochek, who had known the news long ago, turned her home into a fortress. She wore the heaviest armor, the thickest makeup, and stood at the highest point of the main building with two battle axes in her hands.
Those stubborn stone barbarians who had been eating and drinking here for a long time were also wearing armor and holding weapons to guard various key points, ready to fight the invaders to the death.
Several Storm Barbarians gathered together as a reserve force to provide support at any time.
The barbarians demonstrated their excellent talents in warfare. Even though these young men had never been on a real battlefield, they were still able to keenly understand what they should do on the battlefield.
The armored barbarians and human militia brought by Luke once again strengthened the defense of the Fechochik family.
When Mrs. Fecochik heard that Luke had returned, she immediately came down from the rooftop to greet him and asked with concern: "There's news from the Duke's Castle that the Duke has blocked the Holy Mountain and surrounded the Abyss Temple. Did you hear any news at the Duke's Castle last night?"
Are you going to go to war with the Abyss Temple?"
Luke asked all irrelevant people to leave the room. When it was only him and Mrs. Fecochik, he replied, "The Abyss Temple is about to usher in the Abyss Descent. The Abyss energy has the potential to spread and pollute the entire Holy Mountain. Duke Celtic should order the Abyss Temple to stop the Abyss Descent now, but I don't think the Abyss Temple will give up easily."
Speaking of the Abyss Temple, Mrs. Fecochik showed a look of contempt: "I don't like the Abyss Temple. I went in once and it was as depressing as a tomb. What do you mean by the Abyss energy and the pollution of the Holy Mountain?"
"Abyssal energy is the energy that seeps out from the abyss. It can easily turn people into monsters. Madam, have you seen the eye in front of the door of the Abyss Temple?"
"I have. I was so sick that I couldn't eat for a whole day."
"That's what an Abyss Mage becomes after being contaminated by Abyss energy."
"What?" Mrs. Fickechick was shocked. "You said that disgusting eye was once a person?"
"Yes, there are still many such monsters in the Abyss Temple. If the Abyss really descends, the energy of the Abyss will spread to the entire Holy Mountain, and the consequences will be disastrous."
Mrs. Ficochik could already imagine what it would be like. She swallowed hard and said, "We've bought so many stores. Won't they all be worth anything?"
Mrs. Fecochek was indeed Mrs. Fecochek. Luke immediately said, "Yes, once the residents of the Holy Mountain are transformed into monsters, who will our store sell things to?"
"The abyss must be stopped."
"Yes, the abyss must be stopped."
"But how can we stop it?"
Luke said, "I have a friend who used to be a wizard in the Abyss Temple. He knows a secret passage that can lead to the Abyss Temple.
Now that the power in the Abyss Temple is under the control of His Excellency the Duke, the internal defense force must be extremely weak.
I took Coconut and Storm Cato and sneaked into the Abyss Temple. I found the location where the Abyss descended and destroyed it. But I don't want the Duke to know what I did. "
“I understand…” Mrs. Fecochek nodded in understanding: “For the sake of our shop, you can go without worry. I won’t tell anyone that you left here.
There is a secret passage leading to the outside, you can go out through it."
"Okay, I'll be back soon!"
Coconut and Storm Cato were called in, and the three of them, under the cover of Mrs. Fecochek, went into the tunnel leading to the outside.
Then he carefully avoided the city militia that blocked the road and arrived at the Black Magic Potion Shop.
The Black Magic Pharmacy has now been occupied by imperial spies.
"Sir!" The leader of the spies was a human dressed as a craftsman wearing a black mask. He didn't know Luke's identity, but he knew that this person had a higher position in the Secret Service than himself. He led Luke and the other two along the corridor and reported, "The wizard is inside. The guards in the prison are indeed sparse. We took advantage of the abyss wizard's mutation and madness to rescue the wizard. The entrance to the cave has been sealed and will not be discovered in the short term.
There are twelve spies here, ready to be deployed at your will."
Hearing the word "spy", Coconut, who was following Luke, couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Spy! You, you are the imperial spies? Mr. Luke, who are you?"
Luke walked forward quickly and said to Coconut, "I will tell you who I am after we leave the Tedega Hills. The imperial spies lurking in the Holy Mountain are working for me now, and we are about to carry out a mission to protect the Holy Mountain. I will tell you the details after we go in."
Stormcato didn't ask anything, but just followed Luke closely.
Entering the pharmacy, the small room was filled with imperial spies of various sizes. They all wore masks to hide their faces, waiting for the mission to be completed so that they could continue to hide.
The man with the pimple face sat nervously on a tattered chair, surrounded by imperial spies, making him worry about his own safety.
The wizard sat next to him. His imprisonment made him look very weak, and his face full of stubble made it difficult to tell his actual age.
Luke took out the steel wing with blazing feathers, and it instantly turned into a two-handed sword. Holy light lit up on the sword from the inside out, making everyone in the room feel the warmth rising from the bottom of their hearts.
Luke placed the spine of the sword on the wizard's shoulder, and the transfer of holy energy made the wizard feel much better.
"Wizard, I need you to lead us into the Temple of the Abyss and stop the coming of the Abyss."
