The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 796: Divine power and royal power

(Today's chapter involves too many follow-up world patterns, so it is extremely difficult to write. Once again, thank An An quietly guarding you and Yixianguang for the big red envelope)

The death of the mind-slayer is clearly messing up the ambush team.

The remaining spirit-absorbent monster is not a brave person. Seeing that the situation was not good, he greeted several soul servants to block the rapid attacks of the two convicted knights and secretly slipped away.

Due to the rush of walking, it couldn't even take away its spiritual slave.

It is conceivable that even if this guy escapes to the ethnic group, he will become a soft-footed crab because of his great loss of strength. It should be known that before the spirit-absorbed monster grows into a mind-slayer, a large part of its strength depends on these spiritual slaves with powerful combat powers and reasonable occupations. Once there is nothing, its voice in the ethnic group will unprecedentedly fall, and it can only be reduced to the lowest stepping stone.

Now that the mind-slayer is dead and the spirit-absorbent monsters have also fled, the remaining underground creatures have become headless flies, and there is no previous bravery and unity. Without the psychic powers of the flayer, these powerful creatures collected from all parts of the underground world can fight together, and how can they work together to resist the battlefield charge of the convicted knight!

The tree fell apart.

These subterranean creatures that have escaped from the shackles of the soul because of the death of the host have dispersed for the most part. Only the spiritual slaves who remain from the spirit sucker continue to attack the human knight under the influence of the spiritual hint. But the real powerful guys were all killed in the battle just now, and the remaining crooked melons are really nothing.

So in half a quarter of an hour, the fighting in this sparse forest area is over.

When the casualties were counted after the war, the Countess Winryle who led the team couldn't help but feel sad.

The Ansjabah local army brought by himself injured more than 170 people.

Obviously this is a big win.

There are nearly a hundred underground creatures killed, and the war damage ratio of humans and underground creatures is even lower than 2: 1. But Winriel knew that this was because the convicted Cavaliers squad independently blocked the record of another group of more ferocious underground creatures.

If there is no conviction Cavaliers team to follow in this battle, I am afraid to fill in the entire Ansi Jiabao local legion, and it will only lead to a defeated defeat.

The fierceness of the underground creatures and the insidious and terrifying group of mind-slayers are enough to make her previous careful thoughts disappear.

Although the theocracy's persecution of the kingship made her resentful, but she really lost her powerful church power. Whether the kingdom of Hilarg can continue to stand on the mainland of Klein only with worldly power will become a huge unknown.

Thinking of the temple altars in cities and towns, villages and towns, the greedy bishops and priests full of intestines, and the scene of Her Majesty the King kneeling down in front of the Pope to pray for blessings, she could not help but ignite an unwilling anger.

But Zema walked on the horrible battlefield of corpses, listening to the painful wailing of the wounded soldiers. Wen Lier was always heavy in his heart, not knowing how to choose his own path.

As a temporarily formed local legion, this unit does not have its own priest group. It just spent a large sum of money to hire two low-level priests from the resident Ansja Fort. After such a battle, the wounded soldiers have nearly three figures, and how can two low-level priests of three or four levels be enough.

Only one-fifth of the wounded were cured, and the magical skills of the two priests were exhausted. The remaining wounded can only rely on the army doctor to deal with the bandage. For those who were crushed by the minotaur and bear gnomes, the sternal bone was broken, and the serious wounds in the belly were leaked.

The priest who convicted the cavalier squad may have a lot of magic skills left. But she is a member of the Knights of the Church, and all the magical powers need to be retained to cope with unexpected needs. Therefore, it is also impossible to help, and can only avoid the invisible for a long time.

While sending people to thoroughly clean the battlefield, while leaving the remaining cavalry squad out to chase down the underground creatures that escaped, Wenlier, as the commander, was too busy to deal with. Fortunately, several convicted knights did not work hard, except that the head of the devil was included in the bag, and the rest was given to the countess.

This can't help but make Wen Lier's mood more complicated!

Hurry and hurry, and finally arrived before night, this unit was able to enter the city of Cohen.

After arriving in Cohen City, Wenlier met several local troops in the same way as his Ansjaburg local legion. They all suffered heavy casualties and simply fled into Cohen City. All the soldiers of the militia brought wounds, and the wounded with bandages on their bodies filled the streets of Cohen City. The sound of pain and howling was unbearable.

Compared with the huge sacrifice, they have achieved very few results.

Except for a few individual troops that brought back the bodies of some drow elves and hawks, most of them were found nothing. The Kushui County Mint Group vaguely became the leader of the Minds Group, because they brought back 3 minotaur bodies.

Of course, this does not mean that other groups did not gain anything when they were attacked by underground creatures. However, when it is impossible to achieve the final victory, it can only barely cross the blockade of the wicked squad, even if they kill no more underground creatures on the battlefield, it is impossible to bring them all out.

The Kushui County Civil Corps was able to **** the bodies of three minotaurs in the chaos, which is enough to show that their troops were not disarmed by the enemy and lost their armor. This has proved their strength from the side.

It was only when the leader of the Citizen Regiment was waiting in the square in front of the City Hall that the Lord of the City would receive him, the Ansjaburg Local Army was late. When the Countess Wenlier stepped into the square with her men, all the civil groups couldn't help but noticed the ceremony, and naturally retreated to both sides, giving way to the central avenue.

For nothing else, walking in the small wooden cage raised by the corps soldiers in front of the Countess Winryl, the shocking head was so dazzling.

To be honest, when I saw the terrible octopus head of the spirit sucker again, the leader of the civil corps on the scene seemed to return to the previous fierce fight again. They were all blushing, their bodies trembling, and even some guys screamed in fright, apparently frightened by spirit suckers.

A middle-aged man looked at Wen Lier and his party with a complicated look.

This man has a bold face, a messy beard on his chin, a tall and generous body, and a set of thick silver body armor. In the wild, he also carries a touch of pride unique to the nobility.

"Geddes, it turns out that you have come! Is this a smooth journey?" Wen Lier obviously knew the brutal guy. And from her speech and deeds, it can be seen that this majestic guy like a knight turned out to be her status, and he was also an earl with real power.

You know, the kingdom of Hilalg has experienced a peaceful life for thousands of years, and few of the real power nobles can really cross the horse to fight. In this religious country where the state and church are united, the royal family is indisputably in absolute weakness in the looming power struggle between the Chenguang Church and the state royal family.

In the kingdom where tritheism is in power, the change of kingdom regime depends entirely on the will of the pope. Even if a king is on the throne, if he does not get the Pope ’s approval and baptism, then his position will always be unstable, and sooner or later he will step down from office for various reasons.

In the face of the majestic and sacred morning light church, every majesty of the king bowed down and kneeled down before the pope ’s knees to pray for blessings, and voluntarily became a people of God.

The Temple of Morning Light, built in major cities across the country, has become a vampire that nobles secretly hate. Nearly 40% of the fiscal revenue will be collected by the temple every year as a "dedication" to maintain the temple's daily expenses.

As for the believers of the people who believe in Luoshanda, the **** of the morning light, as long as the faith reaches the level of piety, they will automatically become the people of God. They no longer have to pay any taxes, and they no longer have to bow down when they see the nobility, and they have become "nobles" without a title.

For convenience and vanity, many businessmen even bribed the bishops of the local temples to earn themselves the qualifications of "pious and faithful disciples," thus becoming a "big man" on a par with local nobles.

Regarding such acts of ordering God, which greatly disturbed the origin and order of the nobles, nobles, big and small, dare to complain in secret, but never dare to question God's will in public.

But what made the nobles of the kingdom most intolerable was the invasion of the secular regime by the power of the temple. The Temple of Morning Light always used the name of God to interfere in local government affairs, publicly favored the people of God in various commercial and economic disputes, and even publicly opposed the decrees of local nobles for this purpose.

As a result, in those large and medium-sized cities, the most abundant oil and water, and the most critical positions of power are occupied by the people selected by the temple. Some nobles at the bottom want to have enough food and clothing, but also want to breathe in the nose of the temple bishops, pat their horses, and walk their way.

Therefore, under the calm and serene surface of the Hilalge Kingdom, the suppression of the kingship by the theocracy has also reached a point that makes the nobles unbearable.

But the three knights of the Temple of Light in the morning light add up to 5,000. There are also tens of thousands of different ranks of the magicians, plus the **** of the morning light, which is high and high. The king wanted to fight against it. It was like ants shaking the big tree. Not only would it not damage Chenguang Church, but it would also crush itself.

It is not uncommon for the king to be against the Morning Light Church in history. The church does not even need to mobilize the church to arm, just need to be issued by the Pope to accuse the king as a "pseudo-king", there will naturally be countless fanatics and devouts in the kingdom gathered in the capital and launched riots to persecute. " "Pseudo King" stepped down.

After experiencing numerous “frictions” between the royal power and the theocratic power, the Hilalg royal family finally admitted to the reality, and honestly acted as a puppet king, and everything followed the instructions of the archbishop of the church. In order to show his piety to the Pope, the last King Blarg even ordered that the future heirs of the kingdom want to reign as king, they must first concentrate on the morning light temple for three years and become qualified devotees before they are eligible to inherit the throne.

This is undoubtedly another great compromise of the royal power.
