Chapter 353 Overture
The silver moon was high in the sky, and Nylis on the stage looked a little cooler under the moonlight. The soft music spread throughout the mansion hall through magic, making the audience intoxicated.
The concert had lasted for two full hours, but no one seemed impatient. It had to be said that Nelise's singing voice had incredible charm.
On the other side of Brahma City, the area around Starlight Trading Company has been blocked by the Holy See, and several Knights of the Round Table are leading the Paladins to be on high alert.
"Open the barrier. We must completely eradicate the Black Heaven tonight." Lanster said to his priests.
"Yes, Lord Lanster!"
The priests who had been prepared began to chant spells, and a huge magic barrier slowly rose up, enveloping the people of the Holy See and the Starlight Trading Company.
Starlight Trading Company is the pillar of the human kingdom's economic system, so there are some things that ordinary people cannot know. The Holy See announced this action to help Starlight Trading Company improve its defense system.
As the saying goes, it is better to strike first and gain the upper hand. Javini is not stupid enough to wait for "Black Heaven" to take action before taking passive action. Now that she has enough evidence, she will have a real fight. The Holy See is not afraid of any challenge.
Augustus stood on the rooftop of the Starlight Trading Company, looking at the slowly rising magic barrier and nodded gently: "As expected of the most outstanding saint, you are really courageous, but why do you want to serve the Holy See..."
"Very good. With the future of the human kingdom at stake, the prelude to the end has begun."
……
"Luo Qiu, that is..."
In the Fancheng Mansion, Mengli sensed an unusual fluctuation of magical power and his face became a little solemn.
"Don't worry, it won't affect us here. We can just enjoy Nylis's concert."
"Uh-huh."
After getting Luo Qiu's affirmation, Meng Li felt relieved and no longer cared about the messy magical fluctuations in the outside world.
However, Meng Li didn't know that it was Luo Qiu's "contract clone" that quietly left the mansion and came to the vicinity of Xingguang Trading Company.
Luo Qiu's clone did not break into the magic circle set up by the Holy See, but sat quietly in a corner, watching quietly.
The commotion this time might be no smaller than the incident in the imperial capital some time ago. Luo Qiu estimated that he might need to clean up the mess himself in the end, so he sent out his clone early to wait here and also see how things develop.
A faint light flashed in the eyes of Luo Qiu's clone. This time, the clone used the effect of the "Eye of Living Beings" and retained some characteristics.
There were six Knights of the Round Table, more than thirty Paladins, and more than thirty priests. All the people of the Holy See added up to less than a hundred.
Never underestimate these people. They are all elites trained by the Holy See. The weakest of them has the strength of a nearly gold-level adventurer. Such a lineup is enough to kill a small country.
"As expected of the Holy See, it actually has so many powerful people." Luo Qiu smiled. Only the Holy See could come up with such a lineup. Then he glanced at the Starlight Trading Company with an inexplicable light flashing in its eyes. He touched his chin and said to himself, "But it's still a little insufficient."
The opponent is not only 'Black Heaven', but also 'Starlight Trading Company'.
In comparison, Starlight Trading Company is more difficult to deal with. After all, it is an organization that controls the economic lifeline of the human kingdom.
Once the Starlight Trading Company disappears, the economies of many places will collapse. Such a blow to the human kingdom will be immeasurable.
"Are you ready? The commotion this time might be a bit big." Luo Qiu's clone glanced at the people of the Holy See and muttered to himself.
……
Genos gathered all his fighting spirit and shouted, "Augustus, why don't you show up at this time?"
"Knight Wuque, I once had high hopes for you. It's a pity that as a prince of a duchy, you also joined the Holy See. It's really regrettable." A sighing voice was heard, and a figure floated down from the building of Starlight Commercial Bank.
It was Augustus!
Augustus actually showed up alone in such a grand manner, without any of his men.
"Augustus, are you planning to surrender?"
The Knight of the Round Table, Lanster, stepped forward, his hand still on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw his sword at any time.
"Surrender?" Augustus smiled and said, "You have many strong men, but it is far from enough to make me surrender. It would be better if you could bring that 'Lord Luo Qiu' or 'Nether Bone Dragon Knight' here."
"We don't need those big guys to take action to deal with you." Genos drew out the cross sword and slashed out.
Golden sword energy burst out and slashed towards Augustus.
Augustus moved his feet and easily dodged the attack.
"He's a bit impulsive. He's still a young man after all." Augustus shook his head.
"Everyone from the Holy See, I have something interesting here. Would you like to take a look?"
Augustus lightly tapped his finger, and three huge screens were projected on the Starlight Trading Company building, attracting everyone's attention.
"That is…"
A priest's face changed, and he pointed at a projection and said palely: "The sealed place of Tagore Forest!"
Soon, two other locations were also identified.
"The sealed place of the Black Water River!"
"The sealed place of the desolate plains!"
The so-called sealed land is where the Holy See of all generations encountered unsolvable disasters in a certain era, and ultimately could only use the power bestowed by angels to seal the source of the disaster.
Just like the three fallen angels who were unsealed by Bernie and Mantu some time ago.
"Augustus, are you crazy? The sealed disaster is simply not something that humans can solve. Those guys have caused countless disasters. Do you want to destroy the entire human kingdom?"
The faces of the Knights of the Round Table turned ugly. The Holy See paid a huge price to seal the disaster, and even the Knights of the Round Table from past generations had made sacrifices. They didn't expect that Augustus would unseal three of them at once.
The emergence of the three major sources of disasters will definitely be a huge disaster for the human kingdom.
"Don't make it sound so serious. There are more than a dozen sealed places in the human kingdom. These three places are carefully selected by me. Take a close look." Augustus said with a smile.
"The center of these three is the Principality of Saint Gamma. It turns out that your target is the entire principality!"
"Oh, you are worthy of being the third seat at the round table. You are quite smart." Augustus nodded and said, "I didn't have this idea originally. After losing the Holy See, humans only have three major kingdoms left to resist the aliens. If the principality is destroyed, the remaining kingdoms and empires will not be able to stop the aliens. But it doesn't matter now. With an invincible strong man here, the aliens dare not act rashly. Let's completely eliminate the cancer."
Augustus no longer tried to hide himself, his voice gradually becoming colder.
"After eradicating the Holy See and the Principality of Saint Gamma, leaving behind a pure human kingdom, this is the long-cherished wish of the First Apostle of 'Black Heaven'."
