Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

Chapter 321: Full-scale Attack of Demons (9)

It only took less than half an hour from the time when five Chaos Ships were discovered in the Mage Tower of the Eternal City, to the explosion and demonic attacks on the city, to the time when other countries received news of the request for help and sent reinforcements.

But in this short period of less than half an hour, the devil's side not only successfully obtained the treasure but also escaped smoothly. Nine legends who came to help from various countries and churches, two legendary angels sent by the God of Light, and more than twenty master-level humans and celestial beings could only watch the demon escape without being able to pursue it.

They must destroy the remaining demons as quickly as possible to reduce their own casualties and the loss of the Eternal City. Besides, it would be useless even if they catch up. The strength of the two sides is not particularly different, and it is impossible to stop the big devil who wants to escape.

The headquarters of the Church of the God of Light is located in the aristocratic district of the inner city, and the people living around it are either rich or noble. Although these aristocratic residences are guarded, there are only a dozen or so guards at most, not just a few. After all, this is the capital of a country. There are mage towers scanning and city guards patrolling, so there is no need to worry about safety.

Unexpectedly, a disaster came from the sky. More than 80 big demons and more than 2,000 elite little demons "paralleled" directly into this area. These big demons were at least six levels and up to eight levels, but from the beginning they were not expected to come back alive, so they naturally couldn't send real elites to die. But the little devil is the best of the best. He is a real elite equipped with metal weapons and armor, and his combat effectiveness is very impressive.

As soon as these demons landed, they rushed into the nearest house. How could the guards resist it? Then the demons started killing the people inside. Many little devils grabbed people on the spot and started biting them. The delicious soul was an irresistible temptation for them. The killings were followed by arson. The houses of the nobles were made of wood and stone, and contained a large number of fur and cloth decorations, which could easily be set on fire.

By the time the rescue soldiers entered the noble area, more than a dozen fires had been ignited, and there were cries for help, cries, and screams everywhere. These demons were not fools. When they saw the human professionals and soldiers coming, they would rush in and kill those who could defeat them. Those who could not be defeated would turn around and run away. For a while, the entire inner city was filled with demons.

This forced the human reinforcements to give up chasing the escaped demon legends and masters, and went all over the city to eliminate these murderous demons. It was not until dawn that the city was completely wiped out.

After counting the losses after the war, six master-level professionals, 14 high-level professionals, more than 200 middle- and low-level professionals including priests, nearly 1,000 soldiers, nobles and their families, servants, and guards were killed. Nearly a thousand people were waiting.

Most of those pastors were staff with official duties at the church headquarters, and the lowest noble was an honorary baron. This caused heavy losses to both the Church of the God of Light and the Apennine Kingdom.

Hundreds of houses were destroyed, some were destroyed by fire, and most were destroyed in the fighting. The devil had no scruples after the fight. Because the residents were all nobles, and each house had several valuable works of art, the financial losses were even greater.

Including the "Apocalypse", the stolen artifacts, pseudo-artifacts, legendary items, etc. are not all of the Church of Light, but they can be said to be the essence. In addition, the destruction of the Papal Hall resulted in the destruction of a large number of precious classics in the war, which was an irreparable loss.

At this moment, Pope Stephen of the Church of the God of Light was sitting in an unspoilt palace, listening to the cardinal's report with a livid face. These post-war losses were like daggers stabbing into his heart.

Since the establishment of the Church of the God of Light, the headquarters has never allowed evil to take a single step, let alone the direct destruction of the Pope's Hall by demons. The shame and humiliation are not enough to describe it. Because the incident happened during the term of Pope Stephen, it can be said that he has been nailed to the pillar of shame and will be despised by everyone even thousands of years later.

The only good news, and thankfully, is that the main temple enshrining the magnificent statue of the great God of Light was not destroyed, otherwise Pope Stephen would be blamed for his death.

After slaying the demons, he immediately went to the main hall to confess to the great God of Light. God is forgiving and did not punish him, but Pope Stephen could not forgive himself. The reason why he didn't commit suicide on the spot to thank the gods was because he had to take revenge and make the devil pay a huge price.

A priest came in and reported: "His Majesty the Pope, His Majesty the King has arrived."

"please."

After a while, King Emmanuel of the Apennine Kingdom, accompanied by a legendary knight and a legendary mage, entered the palace, and Pope Stephen stood up to greet him.

"His Majesty the Pope."

Although King Emmanuel is of the holy bloodline of the God of Light, the Pope is God’s representative on earth, so he saluted first.

"Your Majesty the King."

Pope Stephen returned the greeting politely.

The royal palace and the church headquarters are far apart from each other across the noble district. Although the royal palace opened the protective circle immediately when the demon attacked last night, the light of the magic released when the two sides fought was still clearly visible, and after the building was set on fire, sky-high flames. There were even a few little devils that had run near the palace. Although they were killed by the guards, it was impossible to say that King Emmanuel was not worried.

After daybreak, he hurried to the church headquarters regardless of the possibility of some demons slipping through the net.

As a believer of the sacred blood and the great God of Light, seeing this situation at this moment, the only suggestion King Emmanuel could make was revenge. He said: "Your Majesty, the demon attacked the Eternal City and caused huge damage. Casualties and losses, this matter will never be let go, we must take revenge on the devil!"

Pope Stephen gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty the King, you are right, the devil must pay the price for this!"

After a short discussion, the two decided on the spot to jointly sign an invitation to major churches, kingdoms, principalities, and guild organizations, asking them to send people to the Eternal City to discuss the attack on Sardinia.

The demon armies in the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of Iberia suddenly left because of the legends and masters among them, causing the attack to turn into a rout. Under the pursuit of the human defenders, half of the demons fled back to Sardinia, and the other half Most of the demons and all the little demons were wiped out. Although a small number of them escaped in all directions, it was difficult for them to survive. It was only a matter of time before they were wiped out.

Now there are no large groups of demons on the continent. Although there are still demons crossing the sea and landing somewhere every day, because of the perfect flying scout system, they will be eliminated soon. It can be said that nothing can be changed.
