As if it sounded like this, Roland thought to himself, Ash had said that the difference between the Divine Punishment Army and the Transcendent was not in strength and reflexes, but in wisdom. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIf a Divine Punisher has the mind of a witch and has an uninterrupted life, the combat experience accumulated over hundreds of years will be terrifyingly rich, and such a warrior will be even more powerful than the Transcendent.

If he was fighting against a complete version of the Divine Punishment Army in the Cold Wind Ridge, there was a good chance that the outcome would be reversed. As long as the church breaks the army into pieces, divides it into many squads, infiltrates the hinterland of the Grey Castle, and harasses and fights everywhere, it will definitely make him unguardable.

In this way, the long adaptation time is no longer the focus, as long as the soul can continue to transfer, choosing to retain the powerful veteran has become an inevitable choice.

The only problem is, how many Divine Punishment Warriors can Akaris accumulate before the Red Moon? A body with great strength is also more tolerant than ordinary people, and the age limit is about 100 years old, and if he participates in the transformation ritual at the age of 20, he can use it for about 70 or 80 years. Even without counting the conversion and soul transfer failure rates, a witch can only create two shells, which directly limits the maximum number of troops to be had. If you want to build an army of thousands of divine punishments, in the four hundred years of inheritance, the number of witches consumed is probably an extremely terrifying number.

After he asked the question, Phyllis bit her lip and replied, "All of them." ”

Roland was stunned, and for a moment suspected that he had misheard, "What?"

"In addition to the transcendental, she plans to transform all witches into a divine punishment army to ward off the eventual apocalypse. She repeated.

"Wait, how can this be done? If you want to overpower a high-level devil in terms of ability, you must be a long-trained Divine Punishment Warrior, but if you want to get such a warrior, don't you have to reserve enough bodies to transfer your soul?"

"Yes, but there's another way to save the soul, and that's to transfer it to another container first. ”

"Other...... Containers?"

"We call it hibernation," Phyllis's words sent Roland shudder, "during this time, the dormant does not need any consumption and loses all sentient until it is reawakened - otherwise how do you think we survived the most difficult beginnings? After breaking with Falling Star City, we didn't have a single usable Divine Punisher body, and we survived by hibernation." Except, of course, some witches...... For example, Pasha-sama. ”

"What's wrong with her?"

"You'll understand when you see her. Phyllis didn't elaborate, "In short, Lord Akalis intends to train skilled Divine Punishment Warriors in a hundred years, and then let the soul sleep to save the consumption of the body. In this way, Falling Star City will have the ability to continuously transform the Divine Punishment Army, and when the Red Moon comes, it will awaken all the souls at once, making the number of Divine Punishment Warriors greatly exceed the limit that the witch group can bear. ”

This means that every witch alive on the eve of the decisive battle will become conversion material.

Wendy, Sylvie and Leaf all had unbearable expressions on their faces, and although they couldn't see the nightingale's expression, Roland knew that her face must be very gloomy at the moment.

"What about Akaris...... Is she going to be involved in the soul transfer as well?"

"No," Phyllis sighed, "I heard that from Mistress Pasha later. The Starfall Queen and her followers had no intention of continuing their lives from the start, and they intended to devote the rest of their lives to the reforging of the new order in order to keep the Divine Punishment Project on track. Only when she is above the extraordinary can she have the strength and prestige to lead the Federation...... Only that flaming red hair symbolizes that the will of Falling Star City will never be extinguished. ”

Speaking of this, there was an extremely complex light in her eyes, with fear, sighs, and respect.

Roland could vaguely understand what she was thinking - obviously with different intentions, but still shocked by the spirit of the other party, in order to defeat the devil and let the witch race continue, even if the price was great, the Starfall Queen could still move forward without hesitation, such a person is still worthy of respect even if it is an opponent.

The fragmented historical record has finally been filled, perhaps because the full version of the Divine Punishment Army is too cruel, and when something is discovered in the ruins, and the Divine Punishment Army plan is no longer the only viable solution against the devil, the rupture becomes inevitable. Later, the split federation was devastated, and the witches of Starfall evolved into a church, and gradually deviated from the queen's original intentions after Akaris's death.

"Are the containers, soul transfers, and the Chosen One all related to what was found in the ruins?" he asked.

Phyllis adjusted her mood and replied, "So to speak. ”

"So you can't even reveal it now?"

"Only Mistress Pasha can make this decision. ”

"How can the Chosen One defeat the Devil?" Roland raised an eyebrow, "I can't agree with you without knowing anything. ”

"I don't know about that, and I'm in charge of research...... The man of the instrument is Céline. "We can find the Chosen One first, and then we can talk about the rest of the matter, but if we are sure of the candidates, there is no harm to the witches of Neverwinter." And Tachira will definitely not fight the devil by harming his own kind, otherwise everyone would not follow Lord Nataya to the end. ”

"How?"

"It's simple, just let each member of the Alliance cast their abilities once," Phyllis held up the ring in her hand, "through it, I can see the witches who have the talent of the Chosen One." ”

Nightingale had briefly described the strange pillars of light that the magic stone could reflect to him, and Roland thought for a moment, "After finding the Chosen One, can the Pasha you mentioned come to Neverwinter immediately?"

"Mistress Pasha can't leave the underground labyrinth, but she'll get through...... Some magical means speak directly to you. Phyllis replied, "When she smashes this multicolored magic stone, she can sense my location instantly. So I have to find the Chosen One before I can call her. ”

"I see," Roland finally nodded, "in the afternoon in the castle garden, you will be able to meet all the witches of Neverwinter." ”

Probably with his approval, Phyllis's expression was noticeably softened, and she stroked her chest again, bowed her head, and said, "Thank you for your promise, when the devil is defeated, your name will be sung along with Tachira." ”

However, Roland didn't care how long his name would last, and he agreed to the other party's offer, not only because of his strong curiosity about the Chosen One and what was found in the ruins, but also because of Agatha's trust in him, and since she wanted to help the survivors, he didn't mind reaching out.
