Chapter 430 Spear of Destiny
Holy Spear of Longinus!
The legendary Spear of Destiny with infinite power!
The faces of the knights and cavalry were full of disbelief.
Pagan converts like Derem who didn't understand the legend quickly asked what it was.
Over the years, there have been too many true and false legends circulating in the Holy Land. Today someone discovered a holy relic, and tomorrow someone claimed to have discovered a holy shroud - almost every slightly wealthy pilgrim, in When leaving the Holy Land, more or less one or two "holy weapons" are carried on the body.
But besides the holy spear, what other weapon can have such mysterious and peculiar patterns and exude such a breathtaking sacred aura?
"The Holy Spear is in the hands of the Marquis. This is the will of Heavenly Father! It is destined that we will follow the Marquis today and drive these damn infidels out of the Holy Land."
"Can the Marquis still lie?"
The cavalry around Lothar started shouting. They believed more than anyone else that Lothar was the reincarnation of the Holy Son and the human spokesperson of the Father's will.
"Think of the sacred tree of New Habsburg, think of the holy tower that stood up overnight in Ella Port, think of the city walls of Jorgesburg - is there anything worthy of the miracle that happened to the Marquis? Do you doubt it?"
"There is no doubt that Lord Marquis is the legendary 'Miracle Worker', and he has been favored by God."
A noble knight shouted: "I have never doubted the divine favor of the Marquis, but I heard that the Holy Lance is stored in St. Peter's Basilica in the Papal City - before I came to the Holy Land, I happened to see the Holy Lance there. box."
"Idiot, don't you know that the Holy Spear has been broken into three pieces? Just like the fragments of the True Cross."
The fragments of the True Cross were hidden in the Crusader camp. The chariot carrying the huge gilded cross was guarded by a group of armed monks. It was the instrument of torture used by the imperial soldiers to crucify Jesus. Don't expect it to be very gorgeous.
"But how could the holy spear break?"
"You can ask St. Longinus (after Longinus pierced Jesus, his almost blind eyes were stained with the blood of Jesus, and regained sight, so he was converted. Later, he devoted himself to spreading Christianity in Asia Minor and was beheaded, so he was sealed. Saint).”
The explosive news that the Holy Spear was in Lothar's hands even made the Crusader cavalry forget about the flying dragon flying overhead.
If it is a real holy spear, do we still need to be afraid of the dragon?
But Lothar didn't forget.
He raised his tone: "This is the will of Heavenly Father. He gave me the holy spear to destroy this evil dragon born by Satan. Soldiers who fight for God, I swear to let this monster from hell return to it." The place to be.”
"Yes, there is nothing to be afraid of. Don't forget that the lord we are loyal to is the legendary dragon slayer. Now that he has obtained the holy spear, it will be easier to destroy the dragon."
"According to legend, the person holding the Holy Spear will become the greatest monarch. Does this mean that the Marquis will become the King of Europe?"
Lothar's eyes were fixed on the demon dragon above his head. In full view of everyone, the golden holy flame ignited from Lothar's arm, and then burned all over half of his body. From a distance, it looked like he was being tortured by fire. .
The eclipse under his crotch whinned uneasily.
As a hell creature, it is afraid of holy fire.
But it soon realized that this flame seemed to be alive and could actually identify ourselves and the enemy. Even if it was close at hand, it still did not feel the burning sensation, and then it became quiet.
"Behold, the Marquis has withstood the test of fire that the ascetic Peter failed to withstand."
"A miracle, this is a miracle!"
The Grand Master of the Knights Hospitaller, Roger of Maureen, had his lips trembling. He kept crossing himself on his chest: "Gerard, have you seen it? Not only is the Marquis Lothar not in cahoots with evil spirits, The evil wizard. I even suspect that he is the new Holy Son."
Gerald, the grand leader of the Knights Templar, looked a little ugly. He murmured in a low voice: "This may be a cover-up trick used by Lothar with the help of some kind of magic. He didn't see the armor on his body and the mount under his crotch was not ignited. ?"
"That's probably not a flame at all!"
But no matter what, Gerrard would not choose to announce this dark thought to the public at this time.
The most urgent task is to deal with the dragon driven by the evil pagan.
The dragon is getting closer.
But it did not launch an attack immediately, but kept hovering in the sky - Lothar knew that this was because the dragon needed to dive when breathing, and this was also when the dragon's flexibility was reduced to the minimum.
It's discreet.
"In the name of God!"
The holy spear in Lothar's hand was like a shriveled sponge. The power in his body flowed towards the holy spear like a bursting torrent. In the blink of an eye, it rose up with scorching holy flames and became more dazzling.
On the dragon saddle.
Master Shemeier looked thoughtful.
The discussion below, even though they were so far apart, still couldn't escape his ears.
"Holy Spear of Longinus?"
"An artifact!"
This kind of artifact full of sacred power obviously has very powerful evil-destroying power. It does look like an artifact produced by the Orthodox Church. It is completely different from the aura of the totem gods that I have destroyed before.
Therefore, it seems that these so-called Christian religions of the Franks really have two brushes.
"Is this your trump card?"
The artifact was indeed difficult to deal with, but Shermail felt relieved. The swords and arrows hidden in the dark were the most terrifying. For a spellcaster of his level, it was definitely not that he had never seen artifacts before.
To put it bluntly, this thing is an ordinary artifact contaminated with divinity. He has destroyed many totem gods and tribal gods. The sacrificial artifacts left behind by them can be regarded as artifacts. To Shemaier, the holy spear in Lothar's hand is nothing more than It’s just that the divinity is more contaminated.
But the calmness on his face quickly disappeared.
Because he clearly sensed that the energy intensity of the weapon in the hands of the man holding the holy spear below was soaring. In just the blink of an eye, it had reached a level that could threaten his life, and it was still soaring wildly like a runaway wild horse.
Lothar had jumped off the horse at this time, and his whole body was like a big open bow. As the holy spear in his hand became a huge pillar of light in people's sight, he suddenly exerted his strength and threw it out. .
"Quick, get out of the way!"
Schemel urged anxiously.
The golden light came so quickly, but the fire dragon, which had been prepared for a long time, showed terrifying agility that was not matched by its huge body. With just a flexible deflection, the golden holy spear grazed its wings. The edge flew into the sky.
"Missed?"
"It actually missed!"
The faces of the Crusader cavalry, who were still full of expectations, were replaced by strong disappointment.
"How can it be!"
"That's the legendary holy spear."
“Have we lost God’s favor?”
The Saracen cavalry on the opposite side cheered as if they had won a battle.
"Your gods have abandoned you."
"This is the will of the Holy Fire!"
Lothar returned to the horse. He looked at everyone's confused eyes, raised his uninjured arm, and shouted: "If God's will is not willing to make this shot fail, then this shot will be A sure shot!"
The next second.
Golden light flashed from the sky.
Like a shooting star across the night sky.
The great sun falling into the sky.
Master Shemeier, who was sitting on the dragon's saddle, was so shocked by the sudden blazing light that he turned around and had no time to react.
boom--
Golden light penetrated the fire dragon's body from top to bottom, and the blood like rain ignited into clusters of flames the moment it fell into the sky.
The cheers of the Saracen cavalry died away.
Instead, there were the deafening shouts of the Crusader cavalry: "This is the will of Heavenly Father. Heavenly Father wants this shot to hit the evil dragon, and the evil dragon will be pierced by the holy spear!"
At this moment, no one doubted that the holy spear in Lothar's hand was the legendary Spear of Longinus.
Even Gerald jumped off his horse in a hurry, knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly.
Roger, who was beside him and had a good personal relationship with him, just whispered: "Repent, I will not tell anyone about your previous blasphemy, but you need to explain your unreasonable suspicions." And repent.”
