Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

Angela's eyes widened with anger, staring at the so-called chancellor of the empire in front of her, gritting her teeth and saying:

"It's you, Melozi! I didn't expect you to actually join the cult! Are you worthy of the oath you swore? Is this how you protect the royal family of the Stephen Empire?"

Her voice was filled with anger and disappointment, as if she was deeply hurt by Merlot's betrayal.

Meluozi sneered: "I have not betrayed my oath. Everything I have done is to find out the truth, so that I and the Stephen Empire can receive the blessing of the true God."

Bard had exhausted his magic power in the previous battle, and now he was obviously no match for Melozi with only Angela.

Angela said: "You go first, I will hold him back and pass on the evidence."

Meluozi said: "It's useless, neither of you can escape." After that, a black light flashed in his hand and he attacked Angela and Bud.

The two were unable to dodge and fainted on the ground. When they woke up again, they didn't know how much time had passed.

The sunlight is blindingly bright. Is it the afternoon of the second day, or some other time?

Bud tried to move his body, but found that he was trapped by chains and the two were locked in a cage. There was more than one cage around.

"Are you awake? Look at the people around you. They are about to die because of you. It's all your fault for destroying the device. I need to find extra souls to sacrifice."

Bud discovered that the people imprisoned in the cages were dressed in gorgeous clothes. They did not look like ordinary people and were obviously of noble status.

“Then the sacrifice begins.”

Mo Luozi threw the talisman papers in his hand, and they landed accurately on the cages except for the two of them, Bud.

The talisman papers seemed to be on fire, emitting strange light, and the people in the cages wailed in pain. Their bodies began to twist and deform, and finally turned into wisps of black mist and were sucked into the ancient device.

As the black mist continued to be sucked into the ancient device, the patterns on the surface of the flesh gradually lit up, emitting a mysterious light, and began to grow again.

The ancient device, which was originally more than ten meters high, grew into a 50-meter-high mountain of flesh after absorbing a huge amount of souls. The ancient and evil runes on it emitted brighter colors.

Mo Luozi said: "It is your honor to witness this moment. Five days later, your soul will become the first flame of the [Soul Devouring Furnace]"

Angela and Bud watched this scene in horror. They realized that Meloch was preparing an extremely evil plan, but they were powerless to do anything. Now they could only put their hopes on Red. Although his new mortal country might have to bear unimaginable casualties, this was the last resort.

The two looked at each other, then smashed the magic stone. Now their mission was completed.

..........

After receiving the message from the magic trumpet stone, the entire Dawn City Council Hall instantly became busy and tense. Everyone was talking about it.

Bill was the first to step forward and ask, "Your Highness, do you mean for us to rush straight over?" His tone was full of doubt and worry, because this was tantamount to declaring war.

Reid nodded without hesitation. He pointed at the map and said firmly, "That's right. Move the First Army to the north and cooperate with the Third Army to break through the border defenses of the Stephen Empire and go straight to the Stephen Imperial Capital - Laileya."

Reid took a deep breath and continued:

"I know you may have many questions about this, but the situation is very urgent now, and I don't have time to explain one by one. But please believe me, the cultists have infiltrated the Stephen Empire. This operation is related to the life and death of the entire human race. I hope that all departments can fully cooperate with the Nirvana Army to complete this arduous task together!"

After hearing the word "cultists", everyone gasped. The last battle with the cultists resulted in extremely heavy casualties.

As soon as the voice fell, Pearl was the first to stand up, her eyes revealing a firm determination:

"I understand, Your Highness. The City Hall will do its utmost to coordinate the allocation of all funds and materials to ensure the smooth progress of this operation." Her voice was resolute and firm, as if telling everyone that she would support this decision without hesitation.

At this time, Bill also understood the urgency of the situation. He wanted to lead the Nirvana Army to avenge the previous humiliation:

"The Nirvana Army will complete the mission without hesitation, and any enemy standing in the way will be crushed."

"Kant has received an order that the food for the advance troops will be prepared within one day, and sufficient supplies will be guaranteed in the future."

Scott, Conrad: "Equipment and ammunition supply will also be completed at the same time, Your Highness, please rest assured."

Baird also stood up and said, "Your Highness, the West Bay Federation, the Church, and the Dart Empire are also preparing a joint army. Do you want to cooperate with them?"

"No need," Red waved his hand and said, "By the time their army is ready, the cultists' plan will have been completed."

Abe also came to the meeting:

"Your Highness, according to a radio message from the Stephen Empire, some unknown object seems to have appeared in the imperial capital of Laileya. A magician said that a magic barrier has covered the entire city. Now everyone is in a panic. I have a suggestion for this."

"Tell me"

"If we want to ensure the safety of the supply line, we must divide our forces to maintain the occupied areas. As far as I know, Eva, the general defending Feike City, seems to have been dissatisfied with the current empire for a long time. If we can win her over, we can let her help us maintain the supply line, which will save manpower."

"How confident are you that you can win her over?"

"70%"

"Okay, but you only have a day and a half. In a day and a half, the First Army and the Third Army will arrive outside Feike City. Time waits for no one."

Eva Agnes has been stationed in Feike City since she was eighteen years old. When the goblins invaded at the age of nineteen, she was responsible for the new section of the Great Wall around here to prevent the monsters from invading.

She could have had a bright future at such a young age, but with the arrival of the fifth prince Rodney, she was gradually marginalized, and basically all military operations were replaced by Enoch.

Later, Enoch disappeared, and Rodney returned to the imperial capital not long after the new general took office, and the situation evolved into this.

Eva is already 28 years old this year. A 28-year-old Grand Knight is considered extremely intelligent. The next level up is a Paladin, or he may accomplish some feat and become a legendary figure, but that is no longer possible.

This is the border, and I originally came here just to gain experience. However, since the disastrous failure in the first reconnaissance, Rodney no longer had a good impression of me. Later, I was about to be transferred, but suddenly a locust attack came and I was left behind again.

Afterwards, she disobeyed orders and led troops and civilians to break out. Fortunately, her father was not demoted, but at least they left the border.

Later, the civil war broke out, but she did not want to participate in it. Many people on the opposite side were her childhood friends or partners. Because of her inactive performance, she was sent to Feike City again.

She was afraid that she would have to spend her whole life here, and she didn't like Rodney. This man didn't care about the common people and only cared about himself. He was very selfish and was not suitable to be an emperor at all!

"General Eva, someone is looking for you"

"Who is it? Let him in."
