Chapter 536: Red Dragon Appears in the Battle Order

The towering church collapsed with a loud bang, shocking everyone. The smoke and dust raised once again obscured the sun that briefly appeared in the sky, as if foreshadowing that something bad was about to happen.

Rundstedt looked back in horror. The collapse of the church blocked the entrance to the underground river, which would make it much easier for him. Because even if the soldiers of the Templar Armored Division broke through his defense, they would not be unable to catch up with Tilan for a while.

But he had just clearly seen that Césaire seemed to be still in the church!
At the moment when Rundstedt was stunned, a Prometheus rushed towards him wielding a chain sword.

These Prometheans are much higher than the similar machines that challenged the status of Seraph half a century ago. Strictly speaking, they are second-generation machines. They will only be more violent and more advanced than those decades ago.

The attempt of the Yenisei Kingdom was not completely useless. When Prometheus first appeared, the Papal States understood the value of this large armor. The battlefield may not be suitable for it, but it is suitable for dealing with certain large mechanical life forms, such as Omega.

Regarding the Omega issue, the Templar Armored Division is undoubtedly the most professional, and they have dealt with many holy disasters. There are golden lines on the fuselage of Prometheus 2, which are not decorations, but the result of Omega's golden blood sticking to it.

As for the fight between armored knights, Prometheus's knights believe that they will not lose to anyone, even if the opponent is the Knight King.

Half a century ago, the newly-born Prometheus was equipped with a holy sword by the Knight King, and the victory was decided with just one strike. At that time, the armor was the Seraph, and the armored knight was the Knight King.

Today, the traitorous Knight King still wears the Seraph and holds the holy sword armor. However, Prometheus is no longer the Prometheus of half a century ago.

While Seraph is still standing still, the performance of Prometheus 2 has improved by 170% compared to the prototype half a century ago, which may not even have an official model.

And the knights of Prometheus 2 are not the useless knights like Prometheus who were defeated when they met the King of Knights half a century ago.

On the other hand, the Knight King's armor was not in good condition, and there was even a bloody wound on his lower abdomen. He was exhausted from the repeated battles and injuries, not to mention the absolute suppression of his equipment.

The struggle between Prometheus and Seraphim half a century ago also affected the current knights. The Templar Armored Division is a secret force belonging to the Holy See, and their existence is even more secretive than that of the Seraphim, which has continued to this day for a hundred years.

They have no way of announcing their existence to the world and can only watch as the old Seraphs occupy the title of "King of Knights".

But today, the high and mighty Knight King actually betrayed his country. He killed his teammates and mechanics, hijacked the most precious and dangerous Omega of the Papal State, and sent himself into an abyss from which there was no escape.

When they learned that one of the targets was a traitorous Knight King, all the Knights of the Templar Armored Division were excited. Killing a Seraph Knight King with one's own hands was probably the ultimate goal of all Prometheus Knights.

Rundstedt paid a heavy price for his distraction just now. The Seraph fell heavily on the ruins of the church, and the blood flowing from his abdomen dyed half of the wall bricks red.

"Knight King, do you know? Each of us wants to be proud of killing you." The knight of Prometheus said, "Originally, this was just a thought. After all, we all serve the Holy See, and there may be no chance for us to fight with swords. But who would have thought that you would actually give us such a chance."

The battle on campus continued, the remaining Prometheans completely cut the Midgard Serpent Train apart, and the holy disasters in golden armor poured out. The Prometheans skillfully held down and dismembered one by one, and golden blood was sprinkled on their bodies again.

There were four Holy Disasters that emerged, and the other three took advantage of this gap to disperse. One of them fought with a Prometheus and entered the church, and was now buried under the ruins, probably dead.

The other two had drilled into the school building. The Prometheans were bombarding the school buildings with the smoothbore cannons on their shoulders, trying to destroy this centuries-old school along with those sacred monsters.

They did not suffer no losses either. Some soldiers who were responsible for support on the ground were cut in half by these sacred monsters as they fled. Some soldiers had their masks knocked off during the battle. They knelt on the ground devoutly, praising the glory of God loudly, and then died.

This strange way of death made Rundstedt feel creepy. He knew that there were fanatics in the Messiah Church who would do anything to defend the glory of God. But even the most crazy fanatics would not do such an incredible thing when they were dying.

Rundstedt looked at the soldiers who were still kneeling in a pious posture, their eyes had already dried up because they saw those sacred monsters without any protection.

But despite this, these Prometheans seemed to be so at ease. The knight in front of him had no intention of worrying about his companions under the ruins, and seemed to be willing to perish together with the sacred monster, which was a worthy death.

Rundstedt was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You made a mistake."

"What is that?" The knight of Prometheus heard his laughter and was a little confused as to how he could laugh in such a nearly desperate situation.

"My title of Knight King was actually given to me because the person who originally gave it to me didn't want it anymore," Rundstedt added quietly, "And it just so happens that he's here, and you guys have succeeded in angering him."

Prometheus stood in front of the Seraphim, put one hand on Rundstedt to prevent him from escaping, and held the chain sword in the other hand, wanting to cut the Seraphim open like he was cutting open the sacred monster.

Severe injuries, fatigue and energy shortage have left the once-invincible Knight King without the strength to even lift his sword.

"It doesn't matter, I will find him and kill him, just like I killed you." The Knight of Prometheus decided not to waste any more words.

If there is still such a Knight King, then let's kill him together. The era of Seraphim is over, and Prometheus will gather their own Knight King!
"That's great, he's here," Rundstedt said, releasing the sword in his hand.

The Prometheus knights were stunned. The holy sword that had killed the Prometheus prototype in an instant was the only thing on Rundstedt that made them feel afraid. But now, he let go of the sword, as if he had given up resistance.

...Or, return the sword to the person to whom it originally belonged.

"Red Dragon appears in your battle sequence! Red Dragon appears in your battle sequence! Red Dragon..." A reminder sounded in his ears that seemed to be repeated endlessly. Rundstedt looked at the Prometheus in front of him, flying backwards like a beaten wild dog. A large armor flew out from under the ruins and hit it heavily. It was another Prometheus buried under the ruins.

Xizel took the sword left by Rundstedt and said softly: "There is an entrance in the ruins of the church that you can leave. Remember to destroy the entrance after entering. There are new energy packs inside, enough to support you to escape."

"You're going to let me go?" Rundstedt was a little surprised, but not surprised.

"Finish what I couldn't do." Xizel said softly, "The witch may not be able to save your fiancée, but for the devil, it is an easy task. He plans to go to the East, and you will probably meet him."

Devil? Rundstedt, who didn't understand what he was talking about, stood up and wanted to see what this former rival and friend, now "accomplice", looked like after putting on the Seraph armor again.

Then, he froze.

The scarlet armor was worthy of the name of a red dragon, but the steel wings extending backwards and the structure on the head that looked like horns and a crown were very different from the Seraph armor he knew.

Especially those golden eyes that looked like flowing magma, with tear marks extending from the corners of the eyes running through the entire visor. It seemed to indicate that this was a vengeful knight who had returned from hell and would make all those who had shamed him pay the price.

"Go back." César pushed Rundstedt to the entrance of the ruins. "It's you who shouldn't step into this dirty world again..."

It was not until then that Rundstedt discovered that in César's other hand, he was holding a golden corpse.

Just like he easily knocked a Prometheus away, killing a sacred monster that required the cooperation of multiple Prometheus was not a difficult task for him now.

After completely blocking the ruins of the church, César threw away the Omega corpse in his hand and crushed the gorgeous armor that was so gorgeous that it didn't seem like it could be found on earth.

"Just like the devil said, it's really easy to deal with..." He said softly, and stabbed the holy sword into the chest of Prometheus who was struggling to stand up.

The front of the dug-open Earthly Python once again emitted a shrill alarm and a blinding red light. Everyone who heard the alarm, whether inside or outside the sanctuary, was stunned.

There are also different levels of divine disasters. The four Omegas that were about to kill a thousand people and destroy the world caused an A-level divine disaster. And now, the alarm level has been raised again, and the piercing alarm sounded as if it wanted everyone in the world to know that an S-level divine disaster has broken out!

The alarm sounded again, affecting the other Prometheans who were shooting at the school building. Their leader turned around and looked at the red one in surprise. It looked more like a knight born for revenge than a seraph.

"Ground troops, stop him!" He gave the order quickly. The true form of the fifth sacred disaster looked so strange.

However, this was an S-level holy disaster, which originally existed only in concept. According to the original author of the "Religious Secret Law", this level of holy disaster would require the coordinated efforts of the Templar Armored Division and the Seraph Knights to repel it.

Note that this is to repel, not kill. In the description of the S-level holy disaster, its true form is almost impossible to kill!

But now the Templar Armored Division has lost personnel and is no longer in its prime. And where can the Blazing Knights come from now? The Blazing Knights made the mass-produced armor that the Papal State was proud of suffer an unprecedented defeat on the battlefield outside the city.

The Knight King of Seraph destroyed his Knights himself, half of them were burned to ashes by him when he defected, and the remaining half were sleeping under the ruins of the church, and the Knight King himself was on the run.

...Moreover, the real person who caused this second divine disaster also looks like a Seraph.

Countless bullets drowned Xizel. The soldiers of the Templar Armored Division understood what the S-level holy disaster represented, which was almost invincible. However, the following strange scene made them understand how the so-called "invincibility" was manifested.

The red bullet stopped in front of the Seraph, and a golden light flashed in the latter's eyes. He ordered the metal to return to its original position. Explosions rang out, and countless muskets exploded at the same time. The soldiers of the Templar Armored Division fell to the ground howling.

César ignored those who followed orders, as he knew that his rage of revenge should be directed at those people.

"Everyone, pay attention. Target the newly emerged Holy Disaster Entity. Fire!" Prometheus' commander gave the order again.

If he had seen why all the soldiers on the ground had lost their fighting power, he should not have used firearms to deal with this unknown Seraph. But the cockpit of Prometheus was too high, and he, who was used to being high up, could not see the lower positions at all.

Explosions sounded again, and all of Prometheus' shoulder-mounted smoothbore cannons exploded.

This almost incomprehensible scene made the commander stunned, and suddenly he understood the meaning of the invincibility of the S-level holy disaster. Such an existence could not be stopped even by the Blazing Knights!

A golden figure flew out of the ruined school building and attacked the strange Seraph. The headless head transformed into a lion's head, and the hatred in its eyes seemed to be determined to destroy the filth in front of it at all costs.

Prometheus' commander was stunned. The entity that caused the divine disaster was fighting among itself?
Then he suddenly remembered that some of them had secretly speculated on the true identity of Omega. Someone had said that this might be a type of Seraph, because they were too similar.

There was no time to think about why they were in turmoil. This was a good opportunity for the commander. He ordered all Prometheus to cover themselves and quickly evacuate from the sanctuary. The S-level sacred disaster was invincible. This was no longer an event they could solve!
The golden corpse was thrown away, and the leader of Prometheus discovered in despair that the Omega, who was extremely difficult to deal with in their hands, could not even last ten seconds in the opponent's hands.

What was even worse was that the true form of the S-rank Holy Disaster, after defeating all of his men, flew towards him... just like the angel that rained down fire from the sky during the Great Judgment!
