Necromancers are frantically stationing troops in the apocalypse.

Chapter 952, Battle

Shannara Mansion.

As time went by, the wealthy and powerful merchants who stayed behind began to become suspicious and uneasy.

"After the Vatican arrives on the island, will we be considered accomplices here?"

"This is imprisonment, not protection at all."

"Shannala said she was protecting us, but I think she wants to drag us to be buried with her."

More and more people joined in the topic, and everyone in the room began to get anxious.

But there are still some people who remain quiet.

This is Shannara's mansion. There are delicious food and drinks here. Even if you go out, there are still skeletons everywhere, unless you can really leave this island.

Compared to staying here, they were more worried about what Shannara said: the Vatican had launched a holy war.

If... the Holy See really attacks this island, then everyone will die.

They hope that Treasure Island can persist.

But how is this possible!

"What are you arguing about? If the port is closed, no one can leave here." said one person.

The person who first called for action continued, "We can't just wait like this. We can find a way to save ourselves."

"The coastal area of ​​Treasure Island is not small. Maybe we can leave."

"Are you really planning to wait for the Vatican to come?"

More and more people were persuaded and shouted in a chaotic manner, "Shannala, let us go immediately."

The more people oppose, the more confident everyone becomes.

As they were talking, someone pushed the skeleton guarding the door, and was hit in the abdomen by the hilt of the skeleton warrior's sword. He curled up on the ground and cursed loudly.

……

Second floor area.

Shannara and the fifth elder, who had dark circles under his eyes, sat on chairs and talked about Treasure Island.

Noise and shouting came from downstairs. The fifth elder said, "What are you going to do next? You are so sure that Wu Heng will win, so it's okay to let them go."

"Letting them go will only lead to bad things." Shannella put down her teacup, and the porcelain made a crisp sound when it hit the sandalwood table. "This is Treasure Island. The panicked merchants may not even be able to wait for the Vatican to attack us."

The fifth elder smiled and said, "I've never seen you consider the wood elves so carefully."

Shannella said calmly, "Without Wu Heng, the Elder Council is still composed of five people. Compared to the Wood Elves, Treasure Island seems to have given me more power."

The room was quiet for a few seconds.

"That makes sense." The Fifth Elder did not deny it and continued, "I'm curious about your relationship. It seems to be better than I thought."

"It's like the love in the story, destined by heaven." Shannara said with a smile.

Wood elves are very similar to the elves, have avant-garde ideas, and pursue literature and romance.

"Shannala, are you sure we won't be in danger because Leader Lilith is also on the island? Once the Church declares it a holy war, it means it won't stop easily." The fifth elder brought the topic back and said, "Are you waiting for other people from the association?"

Shannella frowned subconsciously, and glanced at the stairs where the shouting and cursing came from, and said, "The elder is smart, everything has been arranged. It's nothing more than sitting down and negotiating in the end. How can heroes easily fight each other?"

The fifth elder smiled and said, "It's just as I thought. The methods the association has come up with are just a few."

The wood elves have placed their chips on the Treasure Island, so naturally they don't want anything to happen to Wu Heng.

I felt relieved when I heard Shannara say that the association would still mediate.

The holy war in the Vatican was a thing of a thousand years ago. Now that the association is in charge, how could it allow such a thing to happen?

Shannella sighed again, "But I can't reveal too much about those people down there, for fear that they might ruin our business."

The fifth elder smiled and said, "It's not difficult. I'll go talk to them."

Shannella's tone showed joy, "They might not listen."

"Don't worry, they are just ordinary businessmen, it's not difficult to deal with them." The fifth elder stood up, straightened his robe, and walked slowly downwards.

As I walked down the first floor, people immediately looked over.

"Fifth Elder, where is Shannara?" someone asked.

The fifth elder's expression became serious, "Shut up."

Everyone was stunned and looked at him in surprise.

Someone said, "Fifth Elder, the Church has come to the island. If we stay here, we will be in trouble. You still represent the wood elves, so you have to think it through."

The fifth elder sat aside with a calm expression, "Why are you panicking? As long as Shannara and I haven't left, it means everything is fine. There won't be a war. Look how scared you are."

The hall fell silent instantly.

"Can't fight? What information does the Fifth Elder have?" someone asked tentatively.

The fifth elder sat down at the side with a relaxed look, "You guys are arguing and leaving now. Aren't you afraid that Chief Wu Heng will come back to settle accounts with you after this is over?"

The people who stood up looked at each other, then sat back in their seats one after another.

……

dungeon!

On the damp stone wall, several wall lamps lengthened the human shadows.

The flag bearer Elinor's robe was stained with dust, and the chains rattled as he moved. "I have never done anything that would harm Treasure Island. If I have done anything, please show it to me. Don't take the pressure from the Church out on me."

"Why are you so excited? I never told you what you did." Andvier sat on a wooden chair outside the iron cage, with several upright skeletons behind her.

"Hmph, stop pretending. Isn't this what you meant when you mentioned the safety of Treasure Island in front of everyone in the association?" The flag bearer said angrily.

Andvier raised her eyebrows, but didn't say anything more. Instead, she picked up her phone and sat aside to watch.

The flag bearer narrowed his eyes slightly, "Aren't you suspicious of me? Ask whatever you want to ask."

Andvier glanced at him and said, "I'm not good at interrogation, so please wait here until the leader comes back."

The flag bearer glared, his chains stretched straight, "Nonsense."

……

Between the sea and the sky, a gilded figure stands in the air.

Six pairs of wings spread out, and a powerful aura swept across the heaven and earth.

If Xiaoxiao didn't get back into his body, he would definitely shout "Saiyan" or some other anime character that can merge.

And in an instant, Wu Heng's mind flashed through Lilith's suspicion that the Pope and the religious leader were the same person.

But then it was overturned directly.

When Lilith said this, she was referring to the previous Pope.

But the other party had already died in his own hands, and even his soul was absorbed by the ghost.

This may be a capability of the Vatican, or this pope may have a connection with a religious leader.

"Wu Heng, still level 20." Granda replied.

Still level 20?

But the aura emanating from the other party was several times stronger than that of the previous religious leaders and the Pope.

If heroes are the highest level in this world, then the Pope's fusion before him is also the pinnacle of heroes.

Even when he met the strongest hero, 'Dragon', he didn't feel so threatened.

"I've read in a book that he has wings and is a priest recorded in the Vatican." Granda's voice came to my ears.

Wu Heng nodded.

The most important thing is that the 'divine servant' in front of him actually grew wings.

A big part of the reason why I was able to suppress my opponent before was that I could fly freely in the air.

The opponent, even if he is a hero, only has a short period of flying ability. You can take advantage of the opponent's weakness of not being able to land and calculate the time difference to attack.

Now the other party also has the ability to fly, which is obviously more than his own wings.

"Death is your only salvation."

The divine servant spoke leisurely, his voice majestic and sacred. At this moment, he seemed to no longer be a human being, but a truly high and mighty god.

"Playing tricks!" Wu Heng sneered.

"Evil and rebellious!"

The angry roar of the divine servant was like thunder, directed at Wu Heng.

In an instant, the entire sky turned into a golden sword tomb. Tens of thousands of lightsabers locked onto Wu Heng with their clanging voices. The holy texts flowing on the swords illuminated the night sky as bright as day.

Wu Heng's eyes narrowed, and the spear in his hand also pointed forward.

"rise!"

With a loud shout, the inverted spectacle appeared, and countless water droplets rose from the sea. Each drop of water turned into a sharp water arrow and shot upwards.

boom! boom! boom!
An endless elemental storm exploded in the air, and the shock waves pressed depressions into the sea surface.

At the moment when light and darkness alternated, the figure of the divine servant suddenly became blurred, and his figure was accompanied by a strong wind. His figure remained in the same place, but his real body had already appeared beside Wu Heng.

Wu Heng's sense of danger allowed him to realize the other party's intention in advance, and he released the [Teleportation Technique] and disappeared.

Boom~!

The divine servant swung his sword down, instantly splitting the waves several meters high. Before the waves rose, the divine servant's pursuit had already arrived!

Wu Heng pointed casually, and the clothes on the divine servant immediately came to life. The collar embroidered with gold thread was twisted to the throat, the belt was wrapped around the ankles, and the trousers were tightened and raised up the crotch.

Skill [Animated Object] A spell that has no direct combat power but can interfere with the opponent in battle.

The Pope and religious leaders were combined, but the clothing was retained.

These are definitely not ordinary clothes.

At the same time, the flesh and blood on the divine servant's body quickly shriveled up, his skin wrinkled, but then quickly refilled, over and over again.

Chila~!

The divine servant pulled at his clothes, and the skeleton flashed like a cannonball from the side, with its broken horns pointed towards the divine servant.

Bang~!

With a kick, Shanshan flew out like a cannonball and fell into the sea.

Wu Heng released his [Explosive Potential] and [Keratin Outer Armor] at the same time, and his figure flashed in front of the opponent, chopping him down on the head with the spear in his hand.

Clang~!

The weapons collided, air waves exploded, and the halo on the holy sword shattered.

Wu Heng also felt a huge force rebounding from him, his entire right arm's flesh and blood exploded, and then quickly regenerated under the coverage of the [Keratin Armor].

The two figures kept colliding and separating like meteors.

Every time the holy sword was swung, the surface of the sea seemed to be split open by an invisible giant blade, revealing a gully dozens of meters deep that could not be closed for a long time.

Wu Heng's water magic turned into a water tornado all over the sky, colliding with the golden lightsaber in mid-air, exploding into circles of elemental storms.

The divine servant's long sword shattered the water arrow that was shot at his crotch, and a golden light flashed in his eyes.

A golden mirage appeared in the sky. Countless priests stood in the magnificent hall, forming a choir. The holy Buddhist sounds shook the space like a substance.

The bodies of the two attacking skeletons were blocked, and their soul fire flickered.

Buzz~!

Wu Heng felt as if his head was hit hard, and everything in front of his eyes turned white.

The divine servant approached like a ghost, with the sword raised above his head, radiating light.

Granda appeared instantly, pointed his finger at the divine servant's forehead, and tried to release an 'illusion'.

"Hmph." The Holy Sword of the Divine Servant deflected, and the golden flames slashed towards the ghost along the sword edge.

Glinda hastily disappeared into the void, but his soul fire was still dimmed by the burning.

The cold gilded palm grasped Wu Heng's throat, and the sacred fire flowed into his blood vessels through his five fingers.

The cervical vertebrae made crackling sounds, and the keratinous armor on the surface of the skin was regenerating and carbonizing frantically.

Wu Heng suddenly exerted force and forcibly pried open the hand that was strangling his neck. In the moment when the opponent was stunned, the bronze spear stabbed into the opponent's chest.

The divine servant swung his hand casually, and Wu Heng's body flew out like a cannonball and hit the reefs behind like a cannonball.

"Cough cough!" Wu Heng stood up from the rubble and quickly repaired his dislocated tibia.

Rays of sword light shot out and pierced the semicircular water curtain, causing ripples that were offset one by one.

The divine servant floated gracefully in the air, his skin constantly wrinkling and recovering.

"Blasphemer, you will receive the punishment you deserve." The voice of the divine servant suddenly became a double reverberation, "Divine punishment!"

The sky suddenly became as bright as day!

A giant sword of holy light that spanned a hundred meters pierced through the clouds. Before the sword arrived, the sea surface had automatically split into a deep abyss-like ravine.

This scene was even more terrifying than when the previous Pope used it. Densely packed holy texts flowed on the surface of the sword and were clearly visible.

……

In the distance, the association ships.

At the end of the blue sea, a golden sword of lights pierced through the sky and earth, tearing a golden crack in the dark night.

Even though they were dozens of miles apart, the majestic power still made the elite members of the association on the deck tremble in their hearts.

"what is that?"

"The golden giant sword... is the Pope's divine punishment."

On the association's ship, there were elite members of the association, including many scholars from the Hongwen Society. Even if I had never seen them in person, they were recorded in various books.

At this point, with just a quick glance, you can recognize it as the Pope's skill.

Has the fight started yet?
And the youngest human hero.

Bang~!

The cabin door flew open.

The dwarf leader rushed out first, walked to the bow and looked forward, a look of horror on his face.

Then, the Elf leader followed closely behind, also with shock in his eyes, "They are still fighting."

Perhaps, he could really catch up, but it also depended on whether Wu Heng could survive this attack.

The deck suddenly tilted violently!

The sailor on the watchtower suddenly screamed: "The wave is coming."

The boat was shaking violently and everyone grabbed anything around them to stabilize themselves.

The dwarf leader stood still as if rooted to the ground, and said, "I've been to Treasure Island. According to the itinerary, the battle is not yet at Treasure Island. They won't fight at sea, will they?"

The Elf Elder narrowed his eyes, "You mean to say that Wu Heng took the initiative to come out to meet us?"

"Is it that Lilith didn't leave?"

"How is that possible? Even if Lilith stays, she will only prevent the two sides from fighting." said the elf leader.

The dwarf frowned even more and said, "Is this guy crazy? He intercepted two heroes at sea?"

Then he looked at the mighty giant sword and said, "Remember our bet. You are not allowed to go back on your word."

Obviously, he didn't think Wu Heng could survive under this giant sword.

The elf leader ignored him and turned back to urge, "Sail at full speed! Faster."
