Chapter 273: The Whole City
The imperial capital, somewhere in a mansion.
Under the old oak trees that sprinkled the green shade of the garden like a large umbrella, Gerdas snuggled into the arms of Yin, and was coldly watching the two hounds that were jumping around in the garden. Arthur stood respectfully, not daring to make a sound.
I don't know how long it took, dozens of waves of court mages riding griffons flew over the garden, and Gerdas sighed heavily: "The Punishment Knights, now they have become so unbearable?
Arthur cautiously showed a wry smile and bowed to Gerdath with great caution.
"Not only did they not catch it, but the Knights of Punishment also lost nearly a thousand people, and those priests also lost hundreds. ”
Gerdas narrowed his eyes, and a fierce cold light flashed in his purple eyes: "Knights of Punishment, have the Knights of Punishment who once made the whole world tremble like this? They have also corrupted? Fallen? ...... I think they should be burned at the stake!"
Arthur didn't say a word, and there was no sound, only the muffled shouts of Gerdath echoed through the garden.
But that's the way it is, today's Knights of Punishment are indeed inferior to those terrible weapons in history that make all the forces on the continent tremble. During the Dark Calendar, the Knights of Punishment were the sharpest sword of the Church, and they fought all sorts of heretics almost daily. It took countless bloody battles to quench such an incomparably sharp butcher knife.
After entering the Resurrection Calendar, the overall environment of the Western Continent has become stable, those heretics have been killed in the Dark Calendar, and the Knights of Punishment have not encountered any difficult enemies for many years. During the Hundred Years of Land Island War, the Knights of Punishment also fought dozens of vicious battles, and fought hundreds of times with those religious maniacs of the Odin Temple, and the Knights of Punishment at that time still maintained a strong combat effectiveness.
But thirty years after the war, just as the Gallic Empire was in trouble, so was the Church.
Now punish the main force of the Knights. All were young people born thirty years after the war. The power of the Church on the continent is unshakable, the glory of the Church shines on the entire continent, and the Punishment Order is a terrifying existence. Although these young warriors have great personal combat power, they don't have any real combat experience!
A combat drill at the Imperial Army Academy in Gaul could make the Gallic Emperor vomit blood in anger. It is conceivable that the Knights of Punishment, who are in sympathy with the army of the Gallic Empire, can still maintain some combat effectiveness.
Two thousand punishment knights were defeated and lost by a group of ruffians in the street battle, and Gao Shang, the leader of the punishment knights, who already had the peak strength of the heavenly position, and was even qualified to impact the holy realm, was deprived of all his combat power by a bucket of dung, and his head was easily taken away with a knife.
This is a disgrace to the whole church!
As one of the most famous gods in history, the King of the Broken Army, Gerdas, was trembling with anger when he received the news. If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't gotten the huge power he once possessed, he would have taken it upon himself to transfer all the clergy of the entire Holy Radiance Cathedral, including the presiding sanctuary of the Holy Radiance Cathedral. The noble cardinal, the cardinal Archbishop of the Crown, was burned at the stake.
With a heavy breath, Gerdath clapped his hands gently.
A golden light poured out from him, and a man in silver leather armor, shrouded in armor with no skin exposed, stepped out of the golden light and fell to one knee in front of Gerdas. Glancing at the man who was respectfully kneeling in front of him, Gerdas waved his hand lightly: "Order." Let the Punishment Temple directly send someone to take over this matter! That Lin Qi must be captured alive. ”
Glancing at Arthur, Geldas said indifferently: "This is what I promised you, so naturally I have to do it!"
Squinting his eyes, Gerdas said in a cold voice: "Pass the Basilica of the Holy Radiance, and put pressure directly on Saint Louis XIII." Let the Gallic Empire blockade Berelli, and if Lin Qi is not caught for a day, the blockade cannot be undone for a day. Either he will take Linzi and give us an errand, or ...... By the origin of the dead ghosts of Elham. It's okay to start a religious war. ”
Arthur lowered his head and smiled smugly. Gerdas directly intervened in this matter, and Lin Qi would never be able to escape. According to Arthur's plan, he must make Lin Qi worse than dead, and he must let Lin Qi die slowly in boundless despair. Of course, Arthur had other plans in mind, but these things were not to be known to Gerdas.
As soon as Lin Qi is caught, Arthur will personally torture him.
He also heard Gerdas say: "An ultimatum to the Gallic Empire from the Temple of Punishment, and the Knights of Punishment from all the countries bordering the Gallic Empire will be mobilized to march to the borders of the Gallic Empire." If the Gallic Empire cooperates and teaches us Lin Qi, then let them pay a sum of money. ”
His eyes narrowed into a thin line, and Gerdas laughed gloomily: "If they don't cooperate well, then the Knights of Punishment also need a war to exercise well! Using the Gallic Empire as a whetstone, it should be possible to temper the brilliance of the Knights of Punishment, right?"
Arthur bowed his head respectfully, and he smiled with great joy: "This is certain, the army of the Gallic Empire is still very strong!"
Gerdas nodded slowly, then closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep. Although he has incomparably powerful divine soul power, his ** is only a few months old baby after all, and he can not be awake much time every day. Only when his body is strengthened enough to contain all of his divine soul can he truly gain his full strength.
Belongs to the king of the broken army, Gerdas, the power to break the army by killing millions of coalition troops by himself.
Gerdas is the original descendant of the God of Punishment, in other words, he is the ancestor of the Divine Descendant of the Temple of Punishment. His will is the supreme oracle for all the clergy of the Temple of Discipline. Unless the God of Punishment awakens from eternal sleep, the commands of Gerdas are no different from those of God.
His will was executed perfectly, and in just half an hour, the magic array of the Tongguò Church was densely spread throughout the continent, and the Punishment Knights in all the neighboring countries of the Gallic Empire, scattered in various large and small churches, marched towards the Gallic Empire according to the orders of the Punishment Temple.
The total number of Punishment Knights distributed in the countries of the Western Continent exceeded 200,000, and the number of Punishment Knights in the neighboring countries of the Gallic Empire was 100,000. With the power of these elite Punishment Knights, they were able to gather on the borders of the Gallic Empire in three days.
The main force of the Knights of Punishment under the direct jurisdiction of the Punishment Temple Headquarters also left the Holy Land of the Church and began to move closer to the border of the Gallic Empire. Unlike those Punishment Knights who are distributed in the countries of the Western Continent to monitor and punish heretics, the main force of the Punishment Knights directly under the Punishment Temple is composed of those elites who have experienced a hundred years of land and island wars.
The average age of these knights is between fifty and seventy years old, and they have entered old age compared to ordinary humans. However, compared to the Punishment Knights, who basically possessed the strength of the middle rank or above, they were now in the prime of life. Whether it is combat effectiveness or combat experience, these punishment knights between the ages of fifty and seventy, they are at the golden peak of their lives.
The main force of this Punishment Knights is the core elite force that the Church really uses to deter the entire continent! In this Punishment Knights Order, which has a total number of about 200,000 people, there are nearly a thousand Heavenly Rank Knights alone!
This official document of the Qiē Punishment Temple was conveyed to the Gallic Empire.
When the Emperor received the equivalent of an ultimatum, it was exactly an hour after Gerdas had given these orders.
In just an hour, the order of Gerdas was transmitted back to the headquarters of the Church, to the Temple of Correction, and then quickly to the branches of the Knights of Punishment in the countries of the continent, and then to the Templar bishops of the Temple of Punishment to sign an official document and return to the Gallic Empire through the official channels of the Guò Church. It only took an hour!
When he received the official document, the Emperor was standing with Archbishop Tulu in the room that originally belonged to Master Kocha.
It's clean, no dust left, and it's as clean as a thousand dogs licking it. The emperor and the many civil and military ministers who accompanied him were stunned, what was going on? Shouldn't Master Kocha be here to constantly prepare all kinds of wonderful secret medicines for the empire?
Archbishop Tulu's face had already turned red with excitement - it was great that Kocha had said goodbye without saying goodbye, which just confirmed his crime!
To tell the truth, whether Master Kocha is a remnant of the revelation of the gods, Archbishop Tulu really doesn't know, it's just a crime.
Deduct a heavy black cauldron for Master Kocha, and then deduct Lin Qi from this black cauldron by the way, and it's done. Anyway, Gerdas's target is Linzi, and Master Kocha is an unlucky person who is implicated. At that time, Lin Qi was sent to the Divine Prison of the Punishment Temple, Master Kocha, just burn it on the stake with a fire.
Countless innocent people have been burned to death at the stake, and it doesn't matter if Master Duokocha is alone!
Since Master Kocha is the remnant of the Revelation of the Gods, then Lin Qi has served him for three years, and Lin Qi is also the remnant of the Revelation of the Gods, isn't it a logical thing?
"Look, he's fled!" Archbishop Tulu looked at the emperor with a blue face and a strange look: "He fled, he must be the remnant of the Revelation of the Gods!"
The emperor looked at the ultimatum from the Temple of Punishment in his hand, and then looked at the clean room that had been washed with water, and finally sighed heavily.
"Stein, mobilize all the manpower, search every corner of the imperial capital, and Lin Qi must be found!"
