Chapter 217 The Holy See Of Light Sets Out For Battle, The Battle Of The Five Armies
Until the Gate of Holy Light disappeared.
The worshippers kneeling in the grand hall stood up.
"Unbelievable!"
"In my lifetime, I can actually see the noble Angelic Spirit!"
"I have been praying for the descent of the Angelic Spirit, and she actually appeared! It must be the great Lord of Holy Light hearing my prayers and sending the angel to show her divine presence!"
"For so many years..."
"The miracles under the Goddess of Light's crown have never manifested."
"I never expected that the Supreme Creator would actually descend!"
"The world is about to be enveloped in holiness and light. We must dedicate everything to the great Lord of Holy Light and make all the wise races of this world become followers of the Holy Light!"
"Praise the merciful and great Lord!"
The worshippers were all excited.
When they first learned that the Pope of Light was not a follower of the Holy Light, they were shocked beyond belief.
But now, they understood the reason behind it.
The reason was that the "miracles" had never manifested.
Coupled with the desire for supreme power, the faith of generation after generation of Popes of Light was corrupted.
On the contrary, the faith of the lower-level worshippers remained steadfast.
At the moment of death, Wallace must have regretted deeply!"
"If he had a chance to start over, I believe he would be a steadfast follower of the Holy Light."
"Don't mention that false believer anymore. He is a disgrace to our Holy See! If it weren't for the mercy of the Holy Envoy, we would all be implicated by him."
"Praise the Holy Envoy!"
The worshippers were filled with both sorrow and gratitude.
They were grateful for their unwavering faith.
Otherwise, they would either be burned to ashes by the Angelic Flame or be judged by the Holy Sword.
A bishop said, "We should send the Holy Crusaders to cleanse Wallace's family. He needs to pay the price for blaspheming the Supreme Creator!"
"The group of sanctioned false believers should be treated the same way."
"They have done all sorts of evil deeds using the faith of the worshippers in the Creator to satisfy their own desires."
"They must atone for this!"
Upon hearing this, the other bishops nodded in agreement.
Blaspheming the Supreme Creator was the most unforgivable sin.
The traces of these false believers must be eradicated by the cruelest means.
Only then could their Holy See offer the most pure faith to the great Lord of Holy Light.
"Now that Wallace is dead."
"The papal throne is vacant. Should we elect a new Pope?"
A bishop raised this question.
Immediately, another bishop responded, "The great Lord of Holy Light has already descended upon Dark Forest. Even if we are to elect a new Pope, we should seek the approval of our Lord!"
"What we need to do now..."
"Is to obey the orders of the Holy Envoy, eliminate the heretics of the Kingdom of Kilias, including the evil believers hidden in the darkness. We must quickly envelop the entire Bountiful Great Lands with light!"
"We must welcome the great Lord of Holy Light's descent upon the Cloud City with the most sacred ceremony, the highest respect, and the purest faith!"
Upon hearing this, the bishops in the grand hall, the temple knights, and other worshippers were filled with fervent anticipation.
Just the thought of the great Lord of Holy Light descending upon the Cloud City made them extremely excited.
This would be the greatest glory for their Holy See, recorded in the [Scriptures] and passed down for generations.
Soon, orders were conveyed one after another.
For a moment, all the renowned forces of the Holy See, such as the [Holy Crusaders], [Order of the Holy Knights], [Legion of Fanatical Believers], [Temple Knights], [Golden Gryphon Legion], etc., were mobilized.
At the same time.
Within the two human kingdoms under the control of the Holy See.
All the worshippers of the Church of Light quickly began to gather, including the Light Knights, Light Priests, Cardinal Bishops, monks, and so on.
Not a single one was left out, and they all sounded the horn of war.
During this process, High-Level Bishops appeared in the capitals of these two human kingdoms and conveyed the orders from the Holy Envoy to the high-ranking officials of the two kingdoms.
Initially, some of the high-ranking officials expressed opposition.
Because they believed that behind the Kingdom of Kilias, there was the Dragon's Nest that ruled over the Thirty-Six Islands.
Once the war starts, their kingdom will surely suffer heavy losses.
For so many years, the Radiant Holy See has been unable to rule over the Bountiful Great Lands, and that is precisely the reason.
As for these opponents...
The Radiant Holy See's approach is to use force to eliminate them.
After eliminating the opponents, what remains are the war faction and the obedient faction.
Soon after, the two human kingdoms also began to mobilize troops, assembling one large human army after another, with the Radiant Holy See's army as the main force, marching towards the Kingdom of Kilias.
This war came too quickly, too suddenly.
There were no signs at all.
The high-ranking officials of the Kingdom of Kilias had no reaction at all.
It wasn't until the heavily fortified border city came under attack that they realized the war had broken out.
They urgently mobilized the kingdom's army, advanced to the border, and formed a defensive line.
At the same time, they contacted the Radiant Holy See and the high-ranking officials of the two human kingdoms, hoping to sit down and have a proper talk.
In response to the Kingdom of Kilias' request for peace talks, the Radiant Holy See, which is leading this war, only replied with one sentence: surrender and believe in the great Lord of Holy Light.
The Kingdom of Kilias will definitely not agree to this demand.
The negotiations collapsed.
Three kingdoms, plus the Radiant Holy See, erupted into full-scale war.
Meanwhile, the Kingdom of Kilias urgently sought help from the Dragon's Nest, which rules over the Thirty-Six Islands.
Soon after, the Dragon's Nest also joined the war.
Countless massive dragons appeared on the battlefield.
And this war came to be known as the "Battle of the Five Armies" in later generations.
...
Of course, that is a story for later.
On the side of Paradise Town,
Using the Gate of Holy Light, Angelia, along with Radiant Saintess Tiffany and two hundred alchemists and priests of the Radiant Holy See, teleported back to Paradise Town.
As soon as they entered the town, these followers of the Radiant Holy See were stunned.
Inside the town, there was an extremely dense aura of holiness and radiant magic.
Outside the town, countless "Holy Envoys" were fighting against the undead army.
Above the town, there was even a massive white giant city floating.
What they saw and heard left them in awe.
"Holy Light above all!"
"Is that the City of Angels recorded in the scriptures?"
"Oh my god!"
What shocked them the most was that in the northeast area of the town, three more City of Angels were under construction.
Angelia said indifferently, "Go to the Alchemist Guild and the Clinic on your own. Without special orders, you are not allowed to leave."
"Yes, Your Holiness!"
The followers quickly and respectfully obeyed.
Then, with excitement on their faces, they hurried to their workplaces.
The Holy Envoys did not deceive them.
As soon as they entered the territory, they felt a connection to the belief in the Lord of Holy Light.
The great Lord of Holy Light had truly descended!
They could serve the Lord and even have the opportunity to meet the great Lord, which was the greatest honor of their lives.
"The Lord manifests, faith is eternal!"
"Under the protection of the Creator, we will all attain eternal life!"
"Praise the great Lord!"
...
"Your Holiness!"
Radiant Saintess Tiffany asked cautiously, "What about me?"
Angelia said calmly, "You are already a Saint Rank professional, so you don't need to participate in the battle for now. Find a wooden house for yourself and go to meet the Lord of Holy Light tomorrow morning."
"Yes, Your Holiness!"
Radiant Saintess Tiffany felt a bit regretful.
But she obediently followed the order and found an empty wooden house to stay in.
This night, Tiffany was destined to have a hard time falling asleep.
