Chapter 737 Premeditation
……
When the Pingtian Master pushed the Pope to the corridor, the dense evil spirits had already collided with the garrison. As long as you look down from the fence, you will find that the number of spirits is difficult to estimate, almost filling the walls of the entire patio.
The Salvation Church has an absolute advantage in terrain, which is also their reliance on holding on - the sunlight in the sky is not bright, but it can still illuminate the entire wellhead and penetrate into the well for about twenty floors. In this area, the movement of the spirits will be greatly delayed, and then they will become targets for crossbows, thunder stones and various magic.
But this time, the scale of the evil spirits' harassment seems to be much larger than in the past.
"Ahem..." Wuyi coughed weakly twice, "What's the situation now?"
"My lord, it's hard to say." The Qitian Reverend who took over the command replied truthfully, "The enemies seem numerous, but they are all small demons. The garrison can still resist. But according to past rules, the intensity of the harassment will gradually increase. If this is only the first wave of offensive, then the situation later... I'm afraid it will be quite dangerous."
"You mean there will be a big demon?"
"I think there may be more than one."
When the demon turns into a demon, the damage of many conventional attacks will become negligible. Such enemies must be dealt with by high-grade alchemists alone. The strongest fighting force of the Salvation Church is the Reverend. Now there are still two Reverends who have not returned to other countries. The Reverend Hun Tian and the Reverend Sheng Tian have lost their traces. There are only three people in the base camp who can fight. It is not optimistic for the Salvation Church.
"Where are the people who stayed behind from the Jinxia envoys?" Wuyi suddenly changed the subject, "Why can't I see them? I remember there is Yuyi from the Privy Council in the envoys?"
"This... I sent someone to notify them, but they didn't respond." Venerable Qitian hesitated, "According to the rules, the other party is an envoy after all-"
"Is it time to care about identity now!" Wuyi suddenly interrupted him in a harsh voice, "There has never been an accident in the Ningjing period, why did this happen as soon as they came? I said before that they are an opportunity, but it doesn't mean that I have completely trusted them! Yaowu!"
"I'm here." Venerable Pingtian bowed.
"Go to the envoys' residence and control the people from Jinxia. Among them are Yuyi and Qingjian. If they resist, I allow you to use coercive means." Wuyi said in a deep voice.
"I obey!"
Venerable Pingtian raised the corner of his mouth, waved to call a team of alchemists, and then turned and walked towards the envoys' residence.
It is true that Yuyi is not easy to deal with, but she has no intention of confronting them head-on.
The alliance is both fragile and important to both sides. It is naturally ineffective to use it as a balance of power. Before the situation is clear, the other party may be forced to give up resistance and surrender for the sake of the overall situation. In that case, she will have many opportunities to infect their souls and turn them into unconscious chess pieces.
If the other party resists, the team she leads will most likely suffer heavy casualties. Let alone cooperation between the two sides, the blood feud alone may not be settled.
Although she didn't know why Prince Yong reacted so strongly to the news from the listener, His Majesty always had his own considerations. Since the order had been issued, her identity, which had been hidden for nearly a hundred years, was no longer important. As long as the trust between the two sides was destroyed and the patio was captured, her mission would be completed.
Arriving at the door of the residence, Yao Wu nodded to her subordinates, "You guard the entrance and exit and wait for my order." Then she pushed open the door and asked sternly, "What is your intention? We treat you with courtesy, but you deliberately attract evil spirits and disrupt the foundation of my religion-"
Halfway through, she suddenly froze in place.
There was no one in the room!
What happened?
Ping Tian Zun grabbed the guard who was responsible for monitoring the delegation, "Where are the people living here?"
"Sir, I don't know--" the latter stammered, "They saw off Her Royal Highness the Princess before, and they never came out again after returning to their residence!"
"Never came out?" Ping Tian Zun felt his forehead throbbing, "Come here, seal this floor, and then search it carefully for me, don't miss any corner!"
She didn't expect this to be the case.
The Jinxia delegation did not fall into her hands, and the two sides did not fight because of the conflict.
The other party disappeared without a trace under her nose as if they had planned it in advance.
...
A special train was moving quickly towards the outside of Baiyao Mountain, and the people on the train were Qian, Olina and others.
"I didn't expect that it would be just as Xia Fan expected. An accident happened just as we went deep into the courtyard..." Yuyi looked at the direction of the courtyard with a solemn face, "I don't know how the people in the well are doing..."
"Is it okay for us to leave without saying goodbye like this?" Shanhui was a little uneasy. In his opinion, this emergency plan was a bit exaggerated. On the night before departure, Xia Fan and the princess gathered everyone and explained the possible situations. One of them was that once the well and the well lost contact, the people in charge should leave the courtyard area immediately and must not stay here.
Ning Wanjun's idea went a step further. She believed that the strength of the delegation and the Salvation Church was not equal. If there was an enemy interfering, it would be easy to fall into a passive position. Therefore, the best countermeasure was to contact the Jinxia Army stationed in Baili Town as soon as possible and lead the army into the courtyard area. In this way, whether it was evil spirits or someone with bad intentions, the Jinxia side could deal with it more calmly and rescue the trapped people more vigorously.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess's judgment is correct." Qian said decisively, "If this accident is caused by the enemy, there must be a backup plan. If we leave first, we may not be able to come out again. On the other hand, if this is the case, It was just an accident. We also need reliable power to rescue His Highness. It makes sense both emotionally and logically. At most, the alliance with the Salvation Cult has failed. Jinxia City can live without the Salvation Cult, but it cannot live without the Princess and Xia Fan. , so notifying the military to intervene as early as possible is the way to take the initiative.”
In fact, they did not all return to their residences after seeing off the vanguard.
The past few days have been enough for everyone to get a thorough understanding of the Salvation Cult's guard team - most of the patrollers in the living area are non-qi sensitive, while the alchemists basically gather in the corridor area, mainly responsible for monitoring the movements of evil spirits. Only in important areas such as food distribution areas and water sources are separate guards of Qi sensers at the level of asking and testing fronts. This allowed the illusion talisman drawn by Li to easily deceive the guards who led them, and they arrived at the special train stop without being noticed by anyone.
When the siren sounded, Qian almost didn't hesitate at all. He immediately knocked out the two warlocks stationed at the entrance of the special train and controlled the passage out of Baiyao Mountain. At this point, the Salvation Cult was no longer able to stop the mission and the others.
The Jinxia Army, which had already received instructions to prepare for war, had already assembled and lined up in Baili Town, just waiting for the official order to enter the Baiyao Mountains.
