The bright red flag with golden patterns of the sun fell to the ground. Corpses were everywhere under the city of Attica. A large number of corpses had died horribly and horribly. Their eyes were wide open, and their mouths were agape. All of them had died horribly, and they looked up at the sky in despair. Their empty eyes seemed to be blaming God for choosing such a painful death for them, or perhaps they were expressing their yearning for heaven.
The corpses stretched from the foot of the hill all the way to Attica, including the top of the city wall. Some died under swords, some died under witchcraft, and most of them died under Levis's plague spell. Levis's sudden attack and self-destruction had instantly enveloped the entire church army and Attica.
The corpses were piled up like a mountain, and it was as terrifying as hell on earth. The stench of such a large area of corpses was emitted, but not a single rat or crow appeared. It was as if they were also afraid of the terrifying aura emitted by this hell on earth. The whole world was so quiet that it made people panic, and not a single sound could be heard.
On top of the city wall stood a large number of members of the Owl Knights. They were surrounded by layers of members of the Owl Knights. Levis was wearing armor, and he stood with several other people in black robes. Two of them were injured. One had lost his arms, and the other had lost his legs. They could only sit in a wheelchair.
On top of the city wall, there were traces of explosions and bombardment everywhere. These were the traces of witchcraft and divine spells. One could see flames burning and dissociation spells bombarding a large area. This was especially true for the eastern wall of Attica. It had directly collapsed, as if half of it had been smashed by a giant's fist.
Henry was also a member of the Wizard Tower. He used to be Levis's follower, and he was the son of a court musician. Although he wasn't as talented as Levis, he was still one of the stronger level-1 wizards. When Levis found him and explained his ideas, Henry didn't say anything and just followed Levis.
Levis patted Henry's shoulder and said, "Henry, you've worked hard. Don't worry, I'll use limb regeneration to help you recover your legs."
Although Henry was in so much pain that he was sweating profusely, he was still strong and energetic. This kind of injury was basically fatal to a normal person, but it was nothing to a wizard.
Harry sat on the city wall and looked down at the corpses on the ground. "This is nothing, but I didn't expect the so-called Saints of the Church of Light to be so strong. Such a powerful extraordinary ability, what is the principle behind it? Our witchcraft was actually forcibly erased by their divine magic. This is really terrifying."
Levis nodded. Saint Martin, who they had met before, had been able to use his divine spells to resist Levis and the two apprentices' attacks without being at a disadvantage. At the end, he had used his full strength to cast the Judgment of Holy Light, which had caused the two wizards to be seriously injured. If Levis hadn't predicted in advance and flown into the sky, he would have been seriously injured as well.
After taking over Attica, even the 50,000-strong army of the church did not participate in this battle. Levis did not think that everything would go so smoothly. Everything went according to plan, and everything went smoothly. This made Levis become arrogant and arrogant.
Levis stood on the city wall of Attica and looked at St. Sarl City in the distance. He suddenly became ambitious and said, "The Holy City of the Church of Light, the holy land that countless believers yearn for. This time, I will take you down."
A wizard next to him immediately said, "Levis, this doesn't seem to be in line with our plan. We only need to pose a strong threat to the Church of Light and occupy the Moore Province. As long as we can delay the power of the Church of Light, all the kingdoms of the human world will start working together, and the power of the Church of Light will completely collapse."
"We don't need to be so radical. Once the power of the Church of Light collapses, we can unite with the other human kingdoms and lock the Church of Light within the Kingdom of Light. The aristocratic parliament of the Crete Empire will also quickly work together. When that time comes, the Kingdom of Light will be surrounded by us, and there will be no chance of a comeback."
Henry immediately said, "But we didn't expect the Church of Light to be so weak. If that's the case, why can't we take over the entire Kingdom of Light in one fell swoop?"
Henry's words struck a chord with Levis. Levis said in high spirits, "That's right, we don't just want the so-called Duchy of Creville. We want to establish a kingdom that belongs to the wizards in the entire world."
"That's right. Even if the other cardinals of the Church of Light receive the news, they won't be able to make it back in time. Not to mention that the other kingdoms are still dragging them down. There are only the Pope and the Saintess in the city. As long as we take over St. Sarl City, we can start our first step in conquering the world. The era of the Church of Light is now a thing of the past, and the era of the wizards has arrived."
Levis made up his mind. The entire Owl Knights and the other eight members of the Wizard Alliance immediately began to prepare. Their original plan to set up camp was immediately abandoned. Everyone was ready to set off for St. Sarl City.
Victory had come so easily that they had forgotten their fear of God and the Church. They had forgotten that there were more saints and the strongest Knights of Light waiting for them in the Church, as well as the legendary Saintess who wielded a divine artifact.
Beneath the city of Attica, the two sides fought. Blood flowed like a river. The fifty thousand troops of the Church had all died in Attica. Even the purple-robed cardinal deacon had been killed in Attica. Their corpses were exposed on top of the city walls. It was a gruesome sight to behold.
In the Temple of Light in St. Sarl City, Pope Hodap received the news in the middle of the night that the army of the Church had been wiped out. He was stunned. He couldn't believe it. The elite army of the Church, with fifty thousand against three thousand, had been completely annihilated. Moreover, the enemy was now rushing towards St. Sarl City. St. Sarl City was in danger, and the entire Church of Light was in a precarious situation.
Pope Hodap didn't sleep for the entire night. He had been paying attention to the situation in Attica, but he didn't expect them to be defeated so quickly. Just who was this person who called himself a wizard? How could he have such great power? A mere Duchy of Crever could gather 20,000 soldiers? It was already a feat that they had used up all of their strength.
Only the existence that claimed to be a wizard, the members of the Wizard Alliance, and the Owl Knights led by their leader, Leves. As early as a few days ago, Hodap had already found out about the Wizard Alliance organization that suddenly emerged, and some of their information, as well as their relationship with the Aristocratic Council.
The so-called Owl Knights were an army made up of Bloodline Knights. Even in the Knights of Light, only the squad leaders were Bloodline Knights who had awakened their bloodlines. The rest were just ordinary knights who had trained their bodies to the limit.
Three thousand Bloodline Knights were extremely powerful. Even the fifty thousand troops of the Church couldn't resist them for a moment. Thinking of this, Hodap felt a chill in his heart. He immediately got up and said to the priest beside him, "Go to the Great Temple. I want to see the Saintess."
