[Second Update]
There were many powerful figures in the Inquisition. Over the past thousand years, the number of people suppressed by the Inquisition was quite large. Only a small portion of these people were killed on the spot or executed in a hurry. Most of them were imprisoned in the Dark Prison and used as research materials.
The Divine Alchemists of the Inquisition had the most prisoners on the continent as test subjects. The Punisher was one of the more mature products. Inside the huge beast-like body was a semi-metallic guge. There were deformed organs, blood vessels, and muscles. The core was a mass of flesh that constantly expanded and contracted to provide power to the Punisher.
This mass of flesh was the heart of the Punisher and also the control center of the Punisher. The Punisher didn't have a brain. Inside the skull was a complex divine rune formation that could store and release many kinds of divine spells.
It was unknown how many souls were screaming in the Punisher's heart. The souls that were being controlled were constantly suffering from pain. Even though the pain wasn't intense, these souls knew that they would never be free. That was the source of their pain.
If possible, the Divine Alchemists didn't want these souls to suffer any pain, just like the Terminators. However, there were also differences in levels of Divine Alchemy. There were pitifully few Divine Alchemists who could create Terminators.
The strength, purity, and power of these souls weren't qualified to become the core of the Terminators. Therefore, they could only squeeze together and become the heart of the Punisher.
Even though there were only forty thousand soldiers, the power of each of the forty Punishers surpassed the Golden Sword Saints. Apart from not being able to fly, the products of the Divine Alchemists were almost flawless.
Especially since the Punisher was huge. It was far more useful in attacking cities and territories than fighting alone. The Vatican hadn't used the Punisher in the war with Qin Yin for a long time because they wanted to catch him off guard when attacking Sacred Rock City.
However, the magic disaster in Daliang City made the three young Inquisitors see a huge temptation. According to the records of the Inquisition, there was a war between humans and gods in Daliang City in ancient times. The war even attracted a large number of the most powerful beings. Tens of millions of gods died in that war.
Such records had always been considered exaggerated. To the Divine Alchemists, the gods shouldn't be the losing side, and it was even more impossible for so many gods to die in battle. However, in the process of excavating the ruins, the judge had found relevant evidence, and believed that there were ruins of an ancient battlefield beneath the city of Daliang, and the materials left behind were enough for the Church to create equipment that could conquer the entire continent.
Great Liang City.
The tense atmosphere in the city could not be relieved. The metal flying machines began their routine patrol, looking for targets in the areas near Great Liang City. Now, this metal flying machine had become even more useful, because it had become extremely difficult for both mages and mages to fly in the entire region.
The roar of the metal flying machine seemed to be able to make the army of Great Liang City relax a little. The magicians in the army all spoke out, all the soldiers knew that it was difficult for magicians to fly, and they had a lot more confidence in the power of their own equipment.
The metal flying devices were filled with small magic furnaces, which were not enough to support the Weave. Salin ordered the army to patrol. Although it consumed a lot of low-level magic cores, the effect was obvious. The soldiers gradually returned to the state they were in before the magic disaster. Although they were nervous, they were not in despair.
There was no need to worry about the food in Great Liang City. The cities of the Qinyin people had never been conquered because of a lack of food.
The magic towers and cannons under the city guarded the exit of the giant's graveyard. The three-meter-thick mud seal was very fragile to humans. There was no sound in the graveyard. The petrified gods seemed to have disappeared.
Rex ran back and forth, sending the metal Titan back to Metatlin City. Jason's reply to Salin made Salin feel a little helpless. According to the calculations of the mages on Seriger Island, it would take at least four months to set up the Weave in Great Liang City.
Two days later, Salin received intelligence from the metal flying machine. There was an army of the Holy See gathering a hundred and thirty miles away from the city. The metal flying machine did not dare to get too close. Some enemy mages flew up and tried to shoot down the metal flying machine. The metal flying machine turned around and fled. They only had time to record a blurry image with the alchemy telescope.
It was a camp that stretched for a few miles, with messy numbers. It seemed to be the army of the Holy See that had escaped a few days ago.
This was definitely a regrouping of the defeated soldiers, and the reason they could form a fighting force was because the enemy's follow-up army had arrived, and they had strong control abilities. Salin was very clear that the magic disaster he had created was a huge blow to the soldiers of Great Liang City, not to mention the allied army that had suffered the most.
Salin could only worry. Great Liang City was suspended at a height of five hundred meters. Other than the mages and sword saints, the ordinary soldiers in the city had to rely on ropes to leave. But so what if they left? The army of the Holy See had arrived. What was more frustrating was that the entire land controlled by Great Liang City was now controlled by the army of the Holy See.
If there was no giant's graveyard below, Salin would have led the metal flying machine to find trouble with the Holy See. But he could not leave. If the mud seal at the exit of the graveyard was destroyed, he would need the help of his thunder dragon spear to block it again.
If he really let those petrified gods out, he would not be able to send them back.
A week passed unknowingly, and Great Liang City finally returned to normal. At the four corners of the city, in the tall towers, large alchemy telescopes were set up. To the west of Great Liang City, the army of the Holy See was slowly approaching.
Salin got up and went to the top of the city with Rex and the others. His Elemental Eyes were still limited, but he could see further than the alchemy telescope.
"The vanguard of the Holy See has sent out five thousand people, and they are slowly approaching Great Liang City. The ground outside Great Liang City has sunk at least fifty meters, and some places have sunk more than a hundred meters. According to the calculation of the Holy See, there must be a lot of damage in Great Liang City. Maybe the city wall has completely collapsed.
At a distance of about twenty miles, the vanguard of the Holy See could vaguely see Great Liang City. They almost could not believe their eyes. What is that!
Compared to a mountain, the five hundred meters high Great Liang City was just a small hill. But the ground around it had collapsed, forming a plain, and the height of Great Liang City was very high. At a distance of twenty miles, the silhouette of Great Liang City could already be seen through the alchemy telescope.
At a distance of twenty miles, the magic cannons could not attack. Seeing that the enemy's army was slowly stopping, Salin called the mages in charge of the metal flying machines and ordered them to take off to throw the magic flame bombs.
Salin secretly ordered Gu Xin and Sue to take two metal flying machines respectively and participate in the attack.
Forty metal flying machines hurriedly took off, whistling as they flew toward the enemy's position. The metal flying machines were equipped for four people, and at least two people were needed to operate them. One of them was either a mid-level undead, or at least a high-level magic apprentice.
There were Winged Skeletons, and of course, the undead were the ones operating the metal flying machines. Gu Xin and Sue each sat on a flying machine, and it was very novel. The metal flying machines were extremely fast, and they did not feel stable when they flew. Plus, the loud roar forced the two to put on their helmets and close their bodies.
The soldiers on the metal flying machines laughed loudly, and controlled the flying machines to fly toward the enemy's position. Forty metal flying machines spread out and formed a straight line, and when they were two miles away from the enemy, they lowered their altitude to about five hundred meters.
The vanguard of the Holy See was the reorganized army of the defeated allied army. These army were originally used by the chief judge to test Great Liang City. Seeing the metal flying machines flying over, the officer commanding the vanguard immediately ordered the army to disperse.
It was somewhat difficult for an army of five thousand to disperse immediately. The metal flying machines arrived above them in the blink of an eye, and continuously threw down Magic Flame Bombs.
The Magic Flame Bombs did not have much effect on the Stone Element Holy Tribe, but it was a very brutal weapon when used to kill an ordinary army. The sputtering flames could burn anywhere it touched, and even water could not extinguish it. The forty metal flying machines had only thrown down half of their weapons, and the army of five thousand had completely collapsed.
Amidst the sea of fire, the pathetic cries traveled several miles. Only the cavalrymen who received the order to disperse the earliest were spared, but they could not save the soldiers, and could only watch as the infantry team was burned alive.
The cavalrymen were also equipped with hand crossbows, but their shooting range was only a few dozen meters, and they could not do anything to the metal flying machines. The metal flying machines circled in the sky. Once there were soldiers gathering, three of them would pounce forward and throw down Magic Flame Bombs.
The Magic Flame Bombs were indeed low-level equipment, but their cost was not low. In order to attack the Holy See, Salin did not care about the cost.
The forty metal flying machines still had half of their Magic Flame Bombs left, and they decided to fly into the distance. They only saw the second wave of the Holy See's army after advancing another ten miles. This time, the metal flying machines did not dare to dive down. Instead, they crazily threw down all the Magic Flame Bombs in the sky, and then turned to retreat.
Just as Salin had expected, two people from the army immediately flew up and chased after the metal flying machines.
These two people held scepters in their hands, and their black robes fluttered in the wind. They were two powerful Mages. The light on their scepters flickered and enveloped their entire bodies, providing them with the power to fly.
The weapons on the metal flying machines were Magic Flame Bombs and Alchemy Crossbows. But how could the Alchemy Crossbows in flight aim at the target? Although Salin had thought of installing the Spear of Huojinna on the metal flying machines, the problem was that the Spear of Huojinna could only be operated by a Great Sorcerer.
The Alchemy Crossbows on the metal flying machines shot wildly behind them, and the two Mages chased after them, not caring about the crossbows at all. These crossbows were also disappointing, and not even a single one hit the target by mistake.
The two metal flying machines came to an abrupt stop and descended. On the metal flying machines, Sue and Gusin flew up at the same time, and pounced at the Mages.
Among the Holy See's army on the ground, the experts with good eyesight all saw that the two Mages in the sky were directly cut in half by two figures, and fell to the ground. Everyone wanted to help, but it was too late. The two people fled in the air, and golden Sword Aura flashed all over their bodies. They were two Golden Sword Saints.
The two metal flying machines that fell to the ground made a deafening roar at a height of less than a hundred meters from the ground, and then abruptly pulled themselves up and flew back to Daliang City.
