Chapter 707 The Road to the Starfall Queen

It does sound like this, Roland thought to himself, Ashes once said that the difference between the God's Punishment Army and the Transcendents does not lie in strength and reaction, but in wisdom. If a God's Punishment Army has the mind of a witch and has uninterrupted life, the combat experience accumulated over hundreds of years will be enriched to a terrifying degree, and such fighters will even be stronger than superhumans.

If he had fought against the full version of God's Punishment Army in Cold Wind Ridge, the outcome would have been reversed in all likelihood. As long as the church breaks up the army into pieces, divides it into many small groups to sneak into the hinterland of Graycastle, and harass and fight everywhere, it will definitely make him hard to defend.

From this point of view, the long adaptation time is no longer the key point. As long as the soul can continue to be transferred, choosing to retain powerful veterans becomes an inevitable choice.

The only question is, how many God's Punishment Warriors can Acarice accumulate before the Red Moon? A body with powerful strength is also more durable than ordinary people. The age of aging is about a hundred years old. If you participate in the transformation ceremony at the age of twenty, you can use it for seven or eighty years. Even without calculating the failure rate of transformation and soul transfer, a witch can only create two bodies, which directly limits the upper limit of the number of troops. If one wanted to build a God's Punishment army of thousands of people, the number of witches consumed in the four hundred years of succession would probably be an extremely terrifying number.

After he asked this question, Phyllis bit her lips and replied, "All of them."

Roland was startled, and for a moment suspected that he had heard it wrong, "What?"

"Except for Transcendent, she plans to transform all witches into God's Punishment Army to resist the final doomsday." She repeated.

"Wait, how can this be done? If you want to overwhelm high-level devils in ability, you must be a well-trained God's Punishment Warrior, but if you want to get such a warrior, don't you have to reserve enough bodies to transfer Soul?"

"That's right, but there is another way to preserve the soul, which is to transfer it to other containers first."

"Other... containers?"

"We call it dormancy," Phyllis's words made Roland shudder, "During this period, the dormant person does not need any consumption, and loses all perception until they are awakened again—otherwise, how do you think we survived the most difficult time?" After the break with Fallen Star City, we didn’t have a usable God’s Punishment Army body at all, and we survived only by dormancy. Of course, except for some witches... such as Lady Pasha.”

"What's up with her?"

"You'll understand when you see her." Phyllis didn't go into details, "In short, Lord Akaris intends to train a God's Punishment Warrior with complete skills in a hundred-year cycle, and then let the soul go dormant to save the energy of the body. Consumption. In this way, Falling Star City will have the ability to continuously transform the God's Punishment Army, and when the red moon falls, all souls will be awakened at once, making the number of God's Punishment Warriors greatly exceed the limit that the witch group can bear."

This means that every witch alive on the eve of the final battle will become transformation material.

Wendy, Sylvie, and Ye Zi all showed unbearable expressions on their faces. Although they couldn't see Nightingale's expression, Roland knew that her face must be very gloomy at the moment.

"Where is Akaris herself... Is she planning to participate in the transfer of souls?"

"No," Phyllis sighed, "I heard this from Master Pasha later. Queen Starfall and her followers never wanted to extend their lives from the beginning, they planned to devote the rest of their lives to To the recasting of the new order, to ensure that the God's Punishment Army plan does not deviate from the predetermined track. Only when she is extraordinary, can she have the strength and prestige to lead the Federation... and only the flaming red hair, It symbolizes that the will of Falling Star City will never be extinguished."

Speaking of this, there was an extremely complex light in her eyes, with fear, sigh, and respect.

Roland could vaguely understand what was going on in her heart—even though she had the opposite intention, she was still shocked by the other party's spirit. In order to defeat the devil and allow the witch group to continue, no matter how high the price was, the Starfall Queen could still move forward without hesitation. At present, even if such a person is an opponent, he still deserves respect.

The incomplete historical records have finally been filled, perhaps because the full version of the God's Punishment Army is too cruel. When something is discovered in the ruins and the plan of the God's Punishment Army is no longer the only feasible solution to fight against the devil, a breakup will come. became an inevitable outcome. Afterwards, the splintered Union was seriously injured, and the Witch of Fallen Star City evolved into a church, and gradually deviated from the Queen's original intention after the death of Acharis.

"Are the containers, soul transfers, and the chosen ones all related to what was found in the ruins?" he asked.

After adjusting her emotions, Phyllis replied, "You can say that."

"So you can't reveal it now?"

"Only Lord Pasha can make this decision."

"How can the chosen one defeat the devil?" Roland raised his brows, "I can't reach an agreement with you without knowing anything."

"I don't know about this. The person who is in charge of researching... the instrument is Celine." She said slowly, "We can find out the chosen one first, and then we can talk about the next thing. If we just confirm the candidate, don't worry. The witches of Winterfell do no harm. Moreover, Taquila will definitely not fight against the devil by harming the same kind, otherwise everyone would not follow Lord Natalya to the end."

"How to do?"

"It's very simple, just let each member of the alliance cast their ability once." Phyllis raised the ring in her hand, "Through it, I can see those witches who have the talent of the chosen one."

Nightingale had already briefly described the strange beam of light reflected by the magic stone. Roland thought about it for a while, "After finding the Chosen One, can the Pasha you mentioned come to Neverwinter immediately?"

"Miss Pasha can't leave the underground labyrinth, but she will talk to you directly through... some magic means." Felice replied, "After breaking this five-colored magic stone, she can instantly sense my location .So I have to find the Chosen before I can call her."

"I see," Roland finally nodded, "In the castle garden in the afternoon, you can meet all the witches in Neverwinter."

Probably because of his approval, Felice's expression obviously eased a lot, she stroked her chest again, bowed her head and said, "Thank you for your promise, after defeating the devil, your name will be chanted along with Taquila. "

However, Roland didn't care at all how long his name could last. He agreed to the other party's proposal. Apart from his strong curiosity about the Chosen One and the things found in the ruins, the rest was because of Agatha's trust in him— —Since she wanted to help these survivors, he didn't mind lending a helping hand.
