Chapter 354 The Dust Settles

Five days later.

The morning sun dispelled the gray fog, and Clown faced the rising sun and visualized the Golden Light Mantra.

The golden and silver spiritual light on his body alternated, shining in the sun. From a distance, it looked like a bright mirror reflecting the light.

With the stimulation of the visualization method, the life energy, which was sometimes cool and sometimes warm, spontaneously flowed through the body along a specific trajectory.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the golden and silver spheres shone brightly. When it shone silver, the surfaces of the two spirits flashed with light to echo it. At this moment, the joyful mood of the spirits could be sensed.

The spirits preferred the silver light, and their activity was much lower under the golden light.

According to Clown's understanding, the golden light represented the visualization of the red sun, which was equivalent to putting the spirit into the forging furnace for smelting, removing the dross and retaining the essence, which was a torment for the spirit.

Although this can slowly increase the upper limit of the spirit control, the two of them feel too bad. The spirit control is transformed from evil spirits and belongs to the Yin attribute. It is impossible for them to feel comfortable after being tempered by the power of the scorching sun.

The situation is different when the silver light shines. At that time, he was visualizing the full moon, and the sea of ​​consciousness was filled with the Yin spirit power that nourishes the soul, which is an excellent tonic for the spirit control.

Clown understood that it was the tempering of the Yin and Yang power brought by the visualization that made the two spirit control masters advance much faster than other spirit control masters. It was not only because he often used the spirit control ability, but also because of this tempering.

He didn't notice it before when the Golden Light Mantra was still at a relatively low level. After the Golden Light Mantra advanced to the fourth level, this feeling became more obvious.

In the past few days, the order in the city has been restored, and the blood stains in St. Peter's Cathedral have been lightly washed by many extraordinary people.

Due to the tragic deaths of many high-level extraordinary people, resentment is like substance, and many evil spirits have bred in the church.

Clown took the trouble to "clean" the place again with golden light, and his proficiency in the Golden Light Mantra increased a lot.

Although his proficiency increased a lot, his mood was very complicated. It was not his intention to improve himself with the souls of the slaughtered believers.

However, thinking that he could avenge these wronged souls in the future, he gradually felt at ease.

The roar of the airship passing by sounded in the sky, and Clown ended the visualization cycle and summoned the golden wall.

[Golden Light Mantra: 167638/300000; fourth level]

[Flame Dragon Breath: 75276/120000; first level]

[Healing Wind: 3154/8000; third level]

Perhaps there was too much killing here, and the spirituality in the air became dark and heavy, but it provided a more suitable environment for the Golden Light Mantra to perform, and the proficiency increased by visualization was much more than usual.

Clown treated a large number of wounded people again, and the Healing Wind also made great progress.

There was no time to practice the Breath of the Flame Dragon, mainly because he was worried that the Dragon Soul's might would affect the wounded, so he relied on the Golden Light Mantra to increase his passive ability to drive the growth.

The gold in his eyes faded, he walked out of the room and looked up at the sky.

Three huge airships were hovering low in the suburbs, apparently looking for a place to land.

The parking lot in Bly City was deliberately destroyed, and now the troops in the city are mainly engaged in rescue work and have no energy to clean up there.

Clown noticed that the royal emblem was painted on the skin of the airship, and he knew in his heart that the people of the Saxon family had arrived.

He narrowed his eyes, spread his rose-gold wings behind him, and the whole person was like an angel descending to the mortal world.

He bent his legs slightly and then suddenly straightened them. There was a flash of golden light, and his whole person was like a rocket taking off, leaving a golden and colorful road in the sky.

On the airship, Arthur looked down at the city through the viewing window. He came back only a few times a year, and most of the time he stayed in Fellstone City.

His eyes were solemn, and his thick beard was also a bit serious, shaking with every strand.

Lero stood behind him, speaking with a bit of sigh:

"This is the seat of the Lord's Church and the capital of the Kingdom of Farouk. It is really a pity that it has been destroyed like this."

About half of the city was charred, obviously seriously burned.

Fortunately, St. Peter's Cathedral was not affected, retaining the last bit of dignity of the Church of the Lord of Fire.

There were only two silver-level people from the Saxon family who came this time. Lexis and Prince Sean stayed in Felstone. They were worried that coming here would conflict with the surviving silver-level extraordinary people in the church. After all, there was a fifth-level extraordinary person among the imaginary enemies.

In case of any accident to them, the royal family could also leave a spark.

After summarizing the news sent back by the intelligence personnel, they learned that the current situation in Bly City had stabilized overall.

In this way, the church has regained control of the city, but half of the city has been burned to ruins by the fire. Everything needs to be rebuilt. It is a good opportunity for them to expand the influence of the royal family.

As if noticing Arthur's solemnity, Leroy said:

"Your Majesty, no matter what, Osman, as the Pope, must bear the main responsibility for this incident. It is reasonable for us to come here this time."

Arthur closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly opened his eyes:

"These words are actually meaningless, they just make both sides look better. In the end, it still depends on force. What I am most worried about is the attitude of Crown Moya.

If he has the ambition to become the Pope, I don't know how many archbishops are willing to follow him.

We have never had direct contact with each other. This meeting is very important for our future layout."

According to intelligence, Osman has not appeared in public for several days. It is not known whether he was injured or for other reasons.

They privately judged that the Pope might be seriously injured and it was irreversible. Otherwise, it would be good for the church to launch a substitute to act.

The intelligence they had about Crown was the appearance of the other party to the outside world. Arthur never expected to judge a person's temperament based on intelligence alone.

What he was worried about was a direct conflict with the remaining forces of the church. In that case, no matter who won, it would not be a good thing for the Kingdom of Farouk.

The threat of the evil god reduced a lot of disputes among the churches on the continent, but if a church (country) suddenly weakened, those treaties that had been signed would be a piece of waste paper.

If there is anyone who least wants the kingdom to decline, it must be Arthur Saxon.

"I think this time"

Before Leroy finished speaking, he saw a touch of gold filling his vision. He saw a man with golden armor and wings on his back staying outside the window. The other person's eyes were as deep as the abyss. He had an illusion that he was seen through his soul.

Arthur saw the figure that suddenly appeared and immediately knew the origin of the target.

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, tried to show a peaceful smile, and waved to the other party. Clown bowed slightly as a return gesture.

The airship slowly landed, and Leroy exhaled: "The target appeared. It seems that he is very wary of our arrival. What should we do?"

Their airship met the target before it landed. He always felt that the other party was declaring something to them in the manner of the master.

"Let it be, we will proceed as planned. The primary purpose of coming here today is to let the people see the attitude of the Saxon family. As long as he does not stop us from doing so, everything can be discussed."

Before coming, they made a plan and anticipated various situations. If the archbishops of the church stopped them from helping the city, it means that these archbishops have completely broken with them.

The airship shook suddenly and landed on a flatter grass.

When the king stepped out of the hatch of the airship, Crown was already waiting outside. He bowed slightly:

"Claune Moya, Bishop of Rhine City, greets His Majesty the King."

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he dug out a pile of golden shields under the stove after crossing into this world, and the golden shields were printed with the king's profile portrait.

Now comparing the person in front of him, he only had one feeling, it was really fucking similar.

Arthur's slightly tense expression immediately relaxed. He did not feel any malice from the other party, and the other party did not deliberately cause a conflict. He felt that he must have thought:

"Bishop Clown's reputation has spread throughout the continent, but I have never met him. Now I have achieved my wish, which is gratifying.

The church and the kingdom can have such a great talent as you, so why worry about not being able to prosper."

His words were full of temptation. If the other party did not refute his last sentence, it would largely show that he had no intention of opposing the Saxon family.

Clown heard the deep meaning in the other party's words. He just smiled slightly and said:

"The prosperity of the church and the kingdom depends on everyone's concerted efforts. Unless a person advances to the stigma gold, his influence will be limited.

Your Majesty is a descendant of the Lord of Fire, and he should unite all the forces that can be united and contribute to the prosperity of the church."

"Haha, well said, prosperity depends on everyone's efforts."

Arthur's mood improved greatly. At least he heard the goodwill conveyed by the other party from the language.

He paused and continued:

"I brought a lot of relief supplies and a large number of elite troops this time. What is the current situation in the city?"

"It has been settled. Archbishop Flanders is leading everyone to rebuild."

Arthur asked tentatively: "Where is the Pope? With the current situation in the city, it is most important for him to come out and calm people's hearts."

Crown did not answer this question, but smiled:

"Your Majesty must be tired after the journey. How about we talk about it in detail after the dinner?"

Arthur's eyes fixed, and he nodded: "Okay."

The main members of the king's entourage were arranged in the guest rooms of the church. Outside the guest rooms, an elite team accompanying them was responsible for security work.

Leroy looked at the sunset outside the window and said gloomily:

"Are they putting us under house arrest?"

"Not necessarily," Arthur sat on a high-back chair, leisurely poured a glass of red wine, took a sip, "Good wine."

He changed to a more comfortable posture and said:

"There are few people in the church, even if they want to put us under house arrest, it is impossible.

In addition, I felt a bright and hot law power in the church that is different from the holy power, and this law power is everywhere.

Obviously, someone is using the power of these laws to cover up something. I guess this church must have experienced something dark and bloody in the past few days.

If such a tragic thing happened here, I have a hunch that Osman is unlikely to be alive. "

As the Pope, the center of the Holy See was attacked by the enemy, which shows how bad the situation was at that time.

The only thing he didn't understand was that the Pope was injured in the presence of so many silver bishops.

Could it be that there were serious disagreements within the church, and the forces loyal to the Pope were forced to fight alone?

Arthur stood up suddenly. He was very excited about this speculation in his heart. If this was the case, the possibility of the Saxon family wanting to re-enter St. Peter's Cathedral would increase further.

Leroy saw the deep smile on the king's face, and a big question mark rose in his mind. He said in a vague way:

"What did you think of?"

After releasing the healing wind, Crown patted Drag on the back and smiled:

"Your injuries recovered quickly, and there is no serious problem. "

"Thank you, sir. Even the spells cast by specially trained healing priests are not as effective as your healing wind."

Drag's words were not a compliment. Every time he received a round of treatment, he felt deeply tired. That was the sequelae of the source of life being stimulated. Those healing priests cast the same spells, which could not stimulate his own self-healing power at all.

"You're welcome. Remember to pay me the bill for the water of life in the future. And you, Leo, you two share the cost. Five hundred gold spirit coins each. Isn't it too much?"

For the sake of being colleagues, the treatment of the wounded can be free of charge, but the spiritual objects used cannot be free of charge.

Leo showed an honest smile: "Not too much, not at all. I will also give you a generous gift to thank you for your generosity. "

"Me too," Drag echoed. The matter of the gold spirit coin was a small matter, but the grace of saving lives was a big one.

If they hadn't had the water of life to keep them alive, they would have probably died. At that time, the church couldn't even find a healing priest.

Flanders clapped his hands and said:

"We'll calculate the cost of saving lives later. Now that the Saxon family is here, I want to ask everyone's opinions."

Crown was unwilling to serve as the Pope. It would be difficult for any of them to compete with the royal family for the position of Pope. They were willing to surrender, but they were worried about the royal family's liquidation in the future.

It is safest to hold your destiny in your own hands.

Leo weighed his words and slowly said:

"Your Excellency Crown is unwilling to serve as the Pope, but the power controlled by us is relatively scattered. It is really difficult to compete with the Saxon family.

I think we can form an alliance, and we can advance and retreat together in any situation in the future.

The threat of the evil god is getting closer and closer, and the attention of the Saxon family will be slowly diverted, and then they will have to rely on us. "

Ivan nodded gently:

"This is a good idea. We can ask to be the cardinal of the adjacent area, so that we can take care of each other."

Crown nodded: "I agree."

For him, fighting for power with the Saxon family is the least cost-effective thing, and it is far less promising than staying in one place and developing rapidly.

If the situation in Farouk stabilizes, he can go to the neighboring area and promote the rapid progress of the Golden Light Spell by purifying the polluted areas of the star creatures.

As long as the strength belongs to himself, he is not afraid of any storms in the outside world.
