Chapter 511 Attacking the Sacred Island
"It's not right to let him wear the Holy Son robe before he is elected?"
The speaker was Saint Vegasola, the former cardinal of the Eastern Province. He looked at Steklov with dissatisfaction in his tone.
This dissatisfaction was not only from the perspective of the Holy See of Light, but also from his personal perspective.
Because Gal, one of the candidates for the Holy Son, was his grandson.
Steklov smiled slightly: "It's only a matter of time."
Hearing this, Su Yian rolled his eyes immediately. This old guy definitely said this on purpose.
Sure enough, as soon as Steklov said this, the cardinals who didn't know the inside story talked about it, and the moods of the five candidates also changed subtly.
Saint Vegasola stared at Steklov: "Are you sure? Don't let that happen..."
He didn't say absolutely, because Steklov was the strongest among them, and he had a close relationship with His Holiness the Pope, and he didn't want their relationship to become strained.
"If he disappoints me, I won't bring him here, right?" Steklov looked at Su Yian with a smile, as if to say if you dare not perform well, I will tell you your identity and shut everyone up.
Su Yian curled his lips, then looked at the five people and said lightly: "Let's do it together."
"Arrogant!" The young man in the middle shouted in a low voice. They didn't have any bad feelings towards Su Yian. At most, they felt that there was another competitor. It was just that the seven cardinals directly confirmed that he was the Son of Light. Isn't it too contemptuous of their efforts all along?
At this moment, I heard that this pre-selected Son of Light was so arrogant, and I was immediately furious!
"Let me experience it first!" It was still the young man in the middle, named Chris Gall.
I saw that the light magic power was surging around him, and the magic power of the light element talent was undoubtedly revealed. While rushing towards Su Yian, a golden spear condensed in the palm of his right hand.
The strength of the five candidates was at the level of high-level 3, and they were outstanding young people trained within the Church of Light.
Facing the young man rushing over, Su Yian was too lazy to do anything, and directly mobilized magic power and a trace of source energy to form a protective light shield, and then Gal could not break his defense.
Levis looked at the light shield around Su Yian: "Magic power, and other powers, what are they?"
He asked Steklov, who shook his head: "I don't know, it's a magical power, although it's not stronger than magic power, but because it's unknown, it's mysterious..."
In the field, the sound of bang bang bang was endless. Gal had used a lot of magic, but without exception, let alone breaking the defense, even a crack was difficult to create.
It's not that Su Yian is conceited. There are very few people who can be his opponent at the same level. Although the candidate in front of him is a talent trained by the Holy See of Light, Su Yian can see at a glance that his magic is systematic. Talents trained according to a fixed template are limited in their strength.
"I said it all together."
Su Yian took a step forward lightly, and the magic power was agitated, directly shocking Gal out.
The cardinals were in doubt, and the five candidates looked solemn. Gar couldn't even break the opponent's defense. How could they fight?
"Can you stop being a coward!" Gar said angrily, "It's meaningless!"
Su Yian said "tsk", not in the mood to argue with him. He looked at the other four candidates, raised his right hand, and waved provocatively: "Come on."
The other two light element talents looked at each other, and then said to the others: "Come together, don't waste time."
Gar did not object to this. For a while, the five people rushed towards Su Yian in a horn.
Gar was still the main attacker, and the others were assists, but at some point, the five people became four people, and the remaining young man didn't know where he went.
"Using light to hide his tracks is somewhat similar to [Harmony with Light and Dust]!"
Su Yian did not ignore the disappeared young man, because he had a high opinion of this young man from the beginning.
In comparison, the four candidates who tried to break his defense were too orthodox.
This orthodoxy not only refers to the orthodoxy of their character, but also the orthodoxy of their coincidental playing style.
Su Yian found that the traces of the Church of Light on these four people were too heavy!
The Church of Light, as its name suggests, is upright and aboveboard. The outstanding young people it has cultivated also like to face head-on. It cannot be said that this style of play is bad, but there are also many flaws. For example, the four people in front of him are actually more talented in other styles of play, but they are cultivated by the Church of Light according to a fixed template.
At this moment, Su Yian understood why the Pope of Light had been reluctant to choose the Son of Light.
The true character of the Pope of Light is just as he showed on that island. How could such a jumpy and talkative character like this Son of Light cultivated according to a fixed template?
These Sons of Light may be very polite, understand the "Bible of Light", and understand the self-cultivation of a good person, but that is not enough!
The Son of Light that the Church of Light wants is not a good person, because good people cannot bear the responsibility!
Sitting in the position of Pope, there are too many things to consider and too many relationships to deal with, and good people often suffer in this regard!
These four people can become cardinals in the future, but they cannot become popes.
Thinking of this, Su Yian revealed a flaw, and at this moment, the disappeared young man suddenly rushed out and headed towards the flaw.
"Good!" Raftel praised: "Good grasp!"
"Although it was a deliberate flaw." Levis whispered.
The young man who seized the opportunity was named Sebastian Lopez. He punched out, and the light magic swept out, directly blasting open the flaw in the light shield that Su Yian deliberately exposed.
Lopez continued to move forward, changing his fist into a palm, and as the magic surged around him, he opened the hero realm.
In an instant, Su Yian felt the extremely sharp sword energy filling the surroundings.
In the palm of Lopez's palm, the lightsaber condensed by magic quickly stabbed out. Su Yian had no doubt that when it was fully stabbed out, the tip of the sword would pierce his throat.
"This is the strength that a candidate for the Son of God should have."
Su Yian's eyes were bright, and he took a step back. The same surging light magic surged out, directly knocking the four candidates away, and then he jumped back and pulled away.
But——
On the ground where he was about to land, a magic formula unfolded, and countless golden beams of light were like tough spider silk, tightly wrapping around Su Yian's feet the moment he landed.
A sword energy surged around Lopez. His hero domain was called [Sword Decides the World], a very domineering name, and the domain was equally domineering!
Swish!
Lopez turned into a long sword, carrying an indomitable momentum and rushing towards Su Yian. In the unfolding hero domain, countless lightsabers surged, and thousands of swords were fired at the same time!
Levi's eyes lit up: "Lopez has made great progress."
Steklov nodded, and then said: "But it's still a little bit."
Facing Lopez's indomitable offensive, Su Yian's face did not change, and then he raised his right hand and the magic formula quickly unfolded.
"This magic formula..." Steklov was a little surprised. Isn't this the magic formula of [Holy Heaven]? Lopez is so close, is there time to perform it?
Then, he knew the answer.
Because Su Yian did not use [Holy Heaven], but a weakened version of Holy Heaven.
Holy Heaven itself is a tenth-level magic, but this is not the full appearance of this magic. As the founder of this magic, Master Dongfang knows the power limit of this magic best.
At this moment, it is most appropriate to use the weakened version of [Holy Heaven].
What appeared in front of Lopez was an angel holding a holy spear, as if it were a real body, stabbing Lopez who looked like a long sword!
In an instant, the collision of light and light burst out a strong light, which was almost blinding everyone's eyes, but this degree did not hinder the great magician. They watched this scene and watched Su Yian break free from the beam on his feet and appear behind Lopez.
Lopez's reaction was not slow. He turned around quickly when he noticed it, and the hero field unfolded to try to cover Su Yian.
But... it was too slow!
Lopez only felt that Su Yian in front of him shook, and he had already appeared in front of him, slapping his chest with one palm.
Lopez's face changed slightly, not panic, but joy.
On the ground in front of him, the magic formula was quickly unfolded, but--
Crack--
The magic formula broke when Su Yian stepped on it with his right foot, and it failed directly.
Lopez widened his eyes and looked at this scene in disbelief. Why didn't the magic start?
"The formula collapsed..." Steklov murmured, and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "How many people in the world can use such powerful magic as well as the Lord of Destruction?"
Su Yian's right hand was imprinted on Lopez's chest, and the energy surged, knocking Lopez away.
At this point, no one said anything.
...
"What do you think?"
Seeing the Pope of Light again, the Pope of Light spoke first, and the seven cardinals also looked at Su Yian.
"Very bad." Su Yian said bluntly: "Your church's way of training people is too bad, it's better to throw them into school to train."
"Especially those four guys of Gar, their attack routines are exactly the same, I even doubt whether you cardinals are the same?"
As soon as Su Yian said this, the three cardinals blushed and turned their heads to look at the wall embarrassedly.
"And they are too shameless!" Su Yian said directly: "Your Majesty, if your subordinates were half as shameless as you, the Holy See would definitely be stronger!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The Pope of Light glared at Su Yian: "When did I lose my face? Don't talk nonsense!"
"Hehe." Su Yian smiled and continued: "And they have too little practical experience. These five people are even more ivory tower than ivory tower. Are you so afraid that they will have accidents and have been nurturing them to grow?"
Steklov said: "You have to know that light magicians are rare, and light element talents are even rarer. This kind of talent cannot be cultivated by resources."
Elemental talents have a unique advantage in their own magic attributes. This talent is innate, and there is more than one elemental talent.
Because there is more than one, various countries or families have tried to cultivate artificial talents, but there has been no successful case so far.
"But whether it's your Church, the country, or the noble family, what you need is not flowers grown in a greenhouse." Su Yian said to Steklov: "Although the world is relatively peaceful today, danger is everywhere, especially now that you are fighting against the Dark Church. If you all die, who can take over the Light Church?"
"In the era before the magic age, the pope only needed to have a deep knowledge base, great reputation and a heart to save the world, but now, powerful sages are indispensable, otherwise the Holy See of Light cannot be independent of the country now!"
"Even if you are sure to train a candidate to become the pope, shouldn't the strength of this pope be questioned?"
"A pope who can't support the Holy See can only be swallowed up by the country and the family. There are so many people eyeing this sacred island, and this is just because the outside world has heard about your death." Su Yian looked at the Pope of Light: "What should we do after the war with the Dark Church?"
"You make me feel like I'm going to die." The Pope of Light said to Su Yian: "I won't die. As long as I don't die, there is still enough time."
"You are the pope, this is something you should consider." Su Yian said, and he was a little helpless about himself. Why did he say so much for no reason?
"You are also the Holy Son of Light of the Church now." The Pope of Light said with a smile: "What you said is what you should consider."
"I don't have time!" Su Yian said.
At this moment, Steklov raised his eyebrows slightly, and then reported to the Pope of Light: "The Dark Church is attacking."
The people present were not surprised, but relieved, because they had expected this moment to come, and now that it has really come, they can rest assured.
"How did you come? How many came?" Raftel asked.
"All." Steklov said: "With the ability of a sage, it is not difficult to pave a road on the sea."
"Okay, prepare for battle." The Pope of Light stood up and said, then looked at Su Yian: "You come with me."
Following the Pope of Light, Su Yian asked: "How much have you recovered?"
"It will surprise Lucio." The Pope of Light's tone was a little sentimental, as if he was sentimental for his old enemy.
Su Yian stopped talking and followed the Pope of Light to the bell tower at the highest point of the temple.
This is the central area of the Holy Island. From here, a dark mass of people stand on the surface of the West Sea in the distance. The sky is also rendered black by their power, which looks extremely dark.
The Pope of Light looked at this scene and took a deep breath: "Little guy, why do you think these people do so many evil things?"
