Apocalypse Magician

The second day after the start of the Star Snow City defense battle, the Holy Mountain Church headquarters.

Outside the main church, Feng Moxing was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth with a very anxious look on his face.

During the journey to the isolated Night Breeze Forest for more than a month, who would have thought that the outside world has changed drastically.

After learning about the danger of Xingxue City and parting ways with Li Xingkong, Feng Moxing and Mo Xianwu used the space teleportation array between the church's cities to rush back to the Holy Mountain in just one day.

Then Mo Xianwu hurriedly went to find Mo Nantian. Feng Moxing had no right to get involved in the church's decision-making level due to position restrictions, so he had to wait for the result outside the main church.

A certain meeting hall in the main church is a small space, but it is one of the most luxurious places. It is also where the church makes high-level decisions. At this moment, apart from Mo Xianwu, there are only Mo Nantian, Ling Henian and Mo Qian. Three soldiers.

At this time, Mo Xianwu's eyes were full of doubts and surprise, and he seemed to be quite surprised by the church's final decision.

"The church originally represents justice and light, and promotes the glory of God." Mo Xianwu raised his head suddenly, and for the first time in his life he so strongly opposed his grandfather and father, whom he had always respected, "Sacrifice hundreds of thousands of lives in the city, this is not It’s our fault, it’s against the teachings!”

"Xianwu! What are you talking about?" Mo Qianjun interrupted his daughter first to prevent her from saying anything treacherous. "This is a war sweeping the entire continent. How many people die every day? It's not just... A small star snow city?"

"Father, how can this be the same?" Mo Xianwu unexpectedly did not flinch and continued to argue, "Others' sacrifices, whether they died in battle or to protect more people, are always valuable. And Xingxue As for the city, we vowed to send people to take over the defense, but now we have left it alone. Xingxue City has been abandoned, and their sacrifices are worthless!"

"Xianwu, you are still young, and you don't see some things very clearly." Mo Nantian stopped Mo Qianjun who was about to have another attack in time, and looked at Mo Xianwu with a kind face, "The fall of the capital city of the Sunset Empire happened a month ago. , think about it, are we discussing these issues just now when we get the news?"

"At the banquet that day, the continental united front was successfully concluded. Naturally, the Grand Alliance wanted to retaliate, so they used some hidden cards, including siege formations that could release god-level magic. The dragon knights of the Grand Dragon Chapter were all for the first time. Appeared on the mainland. It defeated the Sunset Empire with lightning speed. On our side, the Canglang Empire is located in a remote location. The army needs to bypass the vast Night Breeze Forest. It is still on the road at the moment, and the Qingtian Empire is unwilling to send troops. Supporting the Sunset Empire is just to deploy a heavy defense line on its own border." Mo Qianjun took over Mo Nantian's words and explained to Mo Xianwu in detail, "Although the knights of my church are powerful, they must be used in high-end battles. If Fighting against ordinary armies, they were consumed by their use of human sea tactics, and the gains outweighed the losses. Therefore, the first line of defense of the united front was behind Xingxue City, at the border of Qingtian Empire and in the area of ​​​​the magic crystal mineral veins. Those who achieve great things will sacrifice themselves wherever they are. It’s inevitable, so…”

"So, Xingxue City was abandoned from the very beginning, right?" Mo Xianwu lost consciousness for a while and staggered back.

At this moment, Mo Xianwu finally understood that she was still too young. She thought that the matter in Xingxue City was just a misunderstanding and that she would be able to resolve it smoothly if she came back to fight for it. Therefore, when she parted with Li Xingkong, she still swore to promise. The church will definitely be able to send troops to support it because it believes that the church always symbolizes justice and light.

But now facing the cruel reality, Mo Xianwu only felt mixed emotions and didn't know what to think. Perhaps only by severely punishing the culprit Ling Tian could he be able to comfort the hundreds of thousands of undead in Xingxue City. "What about Ling Tian? This is Tu..."

"Shut up!" Mo Qianjun decisively interrupted Mo Xianwu. What Mo Xianwu was going to say was very clear. Ordinary soldiers who escaped from the battle should be beheaded in public. What's more, Ling Tian, ​​as a general, was greedy for life and feared death. He ignored the lives of others and abandoned Xingxue. There are 200,000 lives in the city, and the nature is extremely bad. If it is a large scale, it is enough to be suspected of massacre, and according to law, the nine tribes should be implicated.

However, the Ling family has a great cause, and Ling Tian is the only descendant. If he is punished severely, it will inevitably arouse strong dissatisfaction from Ling Henian. The current situation of internal strife within the family will only benefit the leading alliance.

Therefore, Mo Qianjun could not allow Mo Xianwu to continue talking under any circumstances: "The matter in Xingxue City has been decided, so that's it for now. As for how to deal with Lingtian, Xianwu, you have just been promoted to bishop and have no right to interfere with this matter." A level decision.”

Mo Xianwu was about to retort when suddenly the door of the conference hall was pushed open, and then Ling Tian walked in.

Ling Tian was stunned when he saw Mo Xianwu and others, and swallowed back the words that were already on his lips.

"My subordinate Ling Tian has something to report. I accidentally obtained a large number of magic props, including the core part of the extremely precious small magic teleportation array. I don't know how to deal with it." Ling Tian adjusted his state instantly and changed his words to cover up his Awkward.

Lingtian escaped from Xingxue City that day, and after entering the Qingtian Empire, he thought he was safe, so he wandered around slowly before returning to the Holy Mountain Church.

Calculating the time, it has been a day or two since the Grand Alliance's troops arrived at Xingxue City. Ling Tian felt that he knew all the defensive measures of Xingxue City. In front of the Grand Alliance's army, with such a disparity in strength, Xingxue City could not even survive for an hour and a half. .

Once the city is defeated, there will be no proof. At that time, they will say that they have tried their best, but they are still defeated in the end. They luckily break out of the siege and use the space teleportation array between the cities to return.

With the Ling family's powerful position, it is very likely that this matter will be concluded as a defeat in the end, but no one in this world can guarantee invincibility, so a defeat is not a big deal.

However, Ling Tian also knew that he had actually done some unscrupulous things. The first thing he did after returning was to discuss the matter with Ling Henian. When he found out that Ling Henian was in the meeting hall of the main church, he directly I rushed in, and this was the scene now.

Although he did not know or expect that the news from Xingxue City would spread so quickly, Mo Xianwu would be able to take the lead in raising an army to investigate the crime. However, Ling Tian intuitively sensed that something was wrong, so he first mentioned the magic props and showed himself On the seemingly meritorious side, of course, he would not take the initiative to confess that these magic props were looted from Xingxue City.

"Little bastard, how dare you come back? Why didn't you die outside?" Seeing Ling Tian, ​​Ling Henian was the first to attack, slapping him away. The earth magic elements in the space condensed into the shape of a palm and slapped Ling Tian, "Get out!"

"I..." Ling Tian didn't understand the situation at all, so he was slapped away. He covered his swollen cheek and was about to stand up to explain something. Suddenly he saw Ling Henian's secret wink. He left the meeting hall angrily.

Ling Henian, who slapped Ling Tian, ​​looked at his leaving figure, his clenched palms soaked with sweat. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief until he could no longer hear Ling Tian's footsteps.
