Chapter 512 The Pope and the Pope
"Little guy, why do you think these people do all kinds of evil?"
Looking at the dark army of dark knights in the distance and the devil-like patterns that gathered in the sky because of their negative emotions, the Pope of Light asked.
"You want to discuss this kind of philosophical issue with me again?" Su Yian said speechlessly, but then he also expressed his opinion: "This is how nature is."
"Huh? Nature? Doesn't your Daqin have a saying that in the beginning of man's nature, his nature is good?"
"Yes, I really hope this sentence is true, but judging from some examples, this sentence is not completely correct. Some people still look like evil people no matter how educated they are." Su Yian said: "The members of the Dark Vatican People are just pursuing what they think is right.”
"But everything they did was wrong." The Pope of Light said: "Indiscriminate killing of innocent people, robbery and arson..."
"Yes." Su Yian did not deny it.
"There are two types of people in the world, one is those who can control their desires and turn them into motivation, and the other is those who can't control their desires and fall into hell like them." The Pope of Light said slowly: " When the human race is about to survive, these people will only defect, so they cannot stay!”
Su Yian frowned, glanced at the Pope of Light and said nothing. It was not that he opposed the Pope of Light, but he felt that the Pope of Light was very murderous today.
The Dark Holy See landed on the Holy Island.
Also a worldwide organization, the Dark Knights, the armed force of the Dark Holy See, has a total of about 30,000 people. With the addition of some believers who believe in the Dark Holy See, the number reaches 50,000.
The 50,000 dark knights are led by six cardinals. At this level of power, they are completely inferior to the Holy See of Light, less than half!
But the six cardinals of the Dark Holy See stood at the front without fear, looking calmly at the twelve cardinals of the Light Holy See on the steps of the Temple of Light.
"There are really only six left..." Raftel sighed with emotion. When Su Yian told them that the Great Magister of the Dark Church suffered heavy casualties, they still didn't believe it and found it unbelievable, but now, it is a fact.
But they didn't dare to be careless at all, because——
In the sky, darkness surged, as if a vortex capable of swallowing everything emerged, and majestic and astonishing energy overflowed from it. Just the power alone made the cardinals of the Holy See of Light feel great pressure.
The gap between the sage magician and the great magician is separated by several natural chasms!
This is the reason why the Dark Holy See dares to attack the Holy Island in a large scale, because their Pope is here, but the Pope of Light is no longer there!
"pope!"
"pope!"
"pope!"
The dark knights of the Dark Holy See may not be loyal to the Dark Holy See, but at this moment, this is the best way to gather morale. For a time, the momentum is like a rainbow.
On the other hand, in the Holy See of Light, except for a few Steklov and others who knew that the Pope of Light was there, the faces of the other cardinals and archbishops were extremely solemn. Although the gathered Knights of Light were not afraid, their expressions were far from calm. to describe.
From the whirlpool in the sky, Dark Pope Blanks Lucio stepped out step by step, and the majesty of the king looking down upon the world was clearly visible.
Lucio, who had his hands behind his back, looked at Steklov. This most powerful mage should be in charge now.
"I heard that there is a powerful barrier on the Sacred Island. Once it is activated, it can resist all foreign enemies. Why not activate it?" Lucio asked lightly. Before Steklov could speak, he answered to himself: "I Come to think of it, without Ortiz, you wouldn’t be able to activate this barrier..."
"Look at me, after all, the Dark Holy See also came out of the Holy Island. I almost forgot this setting." Lucio looked annoyed: "But fortunately I remembered it. Since you have lost such reliance, why Why don’t you escape from the Sacred Island? If one of you becomes a sage one day, it’s okay to come back for revenge!”
"Swear to live and die with the Holy Island? Or do you believe that your respected Pope is not dead?"
In the bell tower, Su Yian stared at the Pope of Light, who looked uncomfortable: "Why are you looking at me? Is there a flower on my face?"
"I've never known the Dark Pope, but I didn't expect him to talk so much nonsense? Does your Holy Church have a tradition of talkative people?"
"What are you talking about! We don't recognize the orthodox status of the Dark Holy See. What he said is nonsense. How can it be the same as what I said?"
"It's just as annoying." Su Yian said lightly, looking at the Dark Pope, he felt that the Dark Pope no longer had the domineering power of a sage.
"This is not the tradition of the Holy Church, absolutely not!" the Pope of Light said emphatically.
The Dark Pope spoke for a long time, stopped and seemed to rest for a while, then waved his hand: "Enough said, let's attack."
Following the Dark Pope's order, the Dark Knights, led by six great magisters, launched a general attack towards the Temple of Light.
As for the Dark Pope, he raised his hand and when the magic was unfolding, terrifying power was released.
His magic was aimed at the Temple of Light, as if a vortex from hell was falling from the sky, trying to swallow up the entire Temple of Light. The intensity of the twelfth level could be clearly felt by everyone.
Steklov and others looked serious, but did not take action. What they needed to resist was the attack of the Dark Knights from directly ahead.
Just when the vortex was about to touch the Temple of Light, the golden light suddenly lit up, and the sacred light magic power was released from the bell tower on the top of the Temple of Light, expanding from a point to form an indestructible magic formula, resisting the pressure from the vortex.
The Dark Pope raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his eyes, and looked at the bell tower of the Temple of Light, where a figure appeared at some point.
The knights of the Dark Knights seemed not to see this person, and still rushed forward excitedly, only one person showed disbelief.
"Ortiz, he is not dead? He actually escaped from the cracks in the space, how is this possible?"
Zhou Shuoran murmured, and the body hidden in the Dark Knights stopped. If the Pope of Light is still alive, is there any meaning in this battle?
In the home court of the Holy See of Light, can the Dark Pope defeat the Pope of Light?
Just as he was guessing this in his heart, the Dark Pope's figure flashed and disappeared in the air, and the Pope of Light also disappeared from the original place, and the two disappeared.
Su Yian looked up at the deep sky. In the clouds, the Pope of Light and the Pope of Darkness were facing each other not far away.
"You don't look surprised." The Pope of Light broke the calm.
"Do you want me to be surprised?" The Pope of Darkness sneered: "I have been against you for so many years. I can still feel whether you are okay."
"Who saved you?" The Pope of Darkness asked: "There is a residual space magic formula on the Pamidy Plateau. Your escape is related to that space magic formula, right? Who has such ability and is proficient in space magic?"
"I tell you, and then you turn around and tell those people in the [Holy Land]?" The Pope of Light sneered: "Then take people to kill the hope of mankind?"
Hearing this, the Pope of Darkness narrowed his eyes: "Ortiz, Ortiz, I always thought I thought highly of you, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated you. Even the [Holy Land] knows about it. How did you know it? I am very curious!"
"Defeat me and let those bastards in the [Holy Land] check my spiritual world. Maybe you will know everything." Ortiz said indifferently.
"Haha, defeat you? Just as you wish!" The Dark Pope took a step forward, releasing his aura: "Even if you can escape from the cracks in space, your magic power and your injuries will definitely not recover. Space power is not something that can be easily resisted!"
The rich dark magic power swept out from the Dark Pope's body. Ortiz raised his eyebrows slightly. Unlike the magic power he had used in the past duels with him, the Dark Pope's magic power contained an energy that made him both unfamiliar and familiar.
Dark energy!
Because he had killed strange beasts, Ortiz could sense this energy, but the energy in Lucio's magic power was slightly different from the dark energy, like a weakened version of the dark energy.
Yes, dark energy and magic power are two completely opposite energies, and it is impossible for them to coexist, so Lucio might have merged this energy as a second choice.
"Are you scared?" Lucio sneered: "The power from the [Holy Land] is simply not something that humans can resist, even you can't, unless you have the [Morning Star Mark], but this star mark is not here in the Church of Light!"
"It's strange, don't you call yourself disciples of the God of Light? Why doesn't the God of Light protect you? You can't even get a star mark. If there was a star mark, the Holy Church wouldn't have split in the first place."
"You talk too much nonsense!" Ortiz interrupted Lucio's voice: "We are fighting a life-and-death battle... Watch the sword!"
Lucio's eyes were stern, but Ortiz did not attack, but quickly retreated.
"Cunning thing!" Lucio cursed and quickly chased after him, but he also confirmed his inner guess-
Ortiz was not in peak condition, otherwise he would not be like this.
...
The confrontation in the sky was noticed by Steklov and others, but now they had to deal with the army of the Dark Church.
Originally, the cardinals were six to twelve, and the Church of Light was sure to win. However, when both sides were about to launch an offensive, six cardinals of the Church of Darkness used a magic.
Dead Spirit Ritual!
The four cardinals of the Church of Darkness, including Crook, who had been killed before, actually appeared from the magic ritual, but now, they were completely inhuman, like zombies!
Su Yian looked down at this side, turning the bodies of the four great magicians into dead spirits, this trick from the [Holy Land] has been mastered by the Church of Darkness.
"Go!"
The one who issued the attack order was Cardinal Rubinstein of the Church of Darkness. This cardinal was famous for often contradicting the Pope of Darkness. It was said that he had coveted the position of the Pope of Darkness for a long time, and often made extraordinary moves, but even so, the Pope of Darkness did not kill him or expel him.
Outsiders didn't know the reason. The Dark Pope was not there at the time. Rubinstein, as the strongest, began to command the Knights of the Dark Church, and he himself rushed towards Steklov.
The six cardinals of the Dark Church, plus four dead souls, the number of great mages has been much smaller than that of the Light Church, and the dead souls do not know pain, and they have no scruples when they are ruthless, so ten to twelve, it was a draw.
The Dark Knights dispersed under the leadership of each captain. The total number of the Light Knights far exceeded that of the Dark Knights, but the territory of the Holy Island was limited, so the Light Knights transferred were only the most elite part. They began to lure the enemy deep into the sky according to the plan they had made long ago, trying to divide and annihilate them.
The Dark Son hid in the Dark Knights, glanced at the cardinals and archbishops fighting in various places in the sky, and walked leisurely towards the Temple of Light. He stepped onto the steps and came to the stone pillar at the entrance of the temple, and then stopped.
Because there was a figure in front of him, a figure wearing a smiley mask.
Also wearing a mask, the Dark Son raised his eyebrows slightly, and then saw the clothes worn by the figure opposite, and then suddenly realized.
"You are the chosen Son of Light, Gal? Marbles? Garinan? Livingston? Lopez?"
The five names mentioned by the Dark Son are the names of the five candidates for the Son of Light. Obviously, he has enough knowledge of the Holy See of Light, and even knows the five candidates who have been decided recently.
"Guess." Su Yian said to the defeated opponent in a different voice.
The Dark Son listened to this strange voice and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Daqin people?"
He knew that the five candidates were all authentic Westerners who could not be more authentic. They were brought up by the Holy See of Light since childhood and they did not know any other language except the language of the Holy British Empire.
And the guy in front of him, wearing the Holy Son's robe, spoke authentic and fluent Mandarin, which could not be spoken by non-Daqin natives.
"If the Dark Son can be a Daqin person, can't the Light Son be one?" Su Yian said lightly.
The Dark Son laughed: "I don't know if the Holy See of Light has discovered any secrets of mine, but it is too naive to find an Oriental person to compete with me!"
"Then come on, let's see if I am just a casual person." Su Yian raised his right arm and waved to the Dark Son provocatively.
The Dark Saint sneered, and the dark magic power in his body swept through. At the same moment when he raised his right hand, the magic formula was already unfolding, but——
The Dark Saint found that the Light Saint had disappeared in front of him, and when he saw the Light Saint again, he was already close at hand!
The Dark Saint's face changed drastically. The Light Saint had already grasped his wrist and pressed it down hard. Then the Light Saint's left hand, like a blade, slashed, and the Dark Saint's mask was split in two, revealing his true appearance.
