A soldier from the Army of God looked at the flesh on the ground that was gradually melting and disintegrating. There was also a strange fragrance coming from it. He looked up and said, "Captain, it seems like this Blood Sun Remnant took the initiative to sacrifice himself just now."
Lin Chu sneered and said, "I know, he wants to revive his god. Then let him try. Back then, the people from the Protectorate buried all the EsGods here. Even if they come back to life now, I can still beat them to death."
He turned to the side and said to the remaining people, "You guys split up and search first. Find all the divine robes that were left here for me. Don't miss a single one! If you encounter any accidents, send a signal. I will rush over as soon as possible. "
Although the divine robes could only be used by suitable people and looked the same, he knew that the divine robes of the four Marquises and the Army of God in the past were definitely not something ordinary divine robes could compare to. Not only did they have greater potential, but they could also immediately increase a person's combat strength.
With these divine robes in hand, he could form a personal army that belonged to him. At that time, it would be more worthy of his identity as the "Captain". In fact, in terms of succession, he felt that he was more legitimate than the current Captain and the four Marquises.
In the distance, a sword light flashed and flew above a temple.
Zhang Yu reached out and grabbed it. Although he could not fly, the flying sword that was infused with spirituality was not affected at all. With the help of this sword, he was able to witness the entire battle.
He originally thought that the person who could directly barge in from outside Azizama might be one of the four Marquises, or perhaps the Chief Marquis Zhu Que had come here personally.
However, he did not expect that it was actually someone he had never heard of before. Moreover, the other party's strength far exceeded most of the people he had seen before. It was very likely that the other party had reached the level of Xuan Shou.
However, he also observed that the other party's combat skills did not match the strength he possessed. There was even a hint of unfamiliarity. Moreover, the other party's mental state was too high.
It was just like how one's body and consciousness had yet to fully adjust to a sudden increase in strength.
In particular, the opponent's fighting style was somewhat similar to that of the Army of God's Vice Commandant Ying. This made him think that perhaps the Vice Commandant Ying's divine robe wasn't in this divine city at all. It was left outside, and this time it was found by the Army of God.
What exactly was going on was no longer important.
The Army of God was obviously here to collect the lost robes. If they could bring them back, the Army of God would become even stronger.
Since he was here, he had to stop the other party.
However, what kind of method would be needed to defeat such an enemy?
Hmm?
At this moment, he suddenly sensed something and looked up. He saw that the God of Blood Sun's talisman in the distance had suddenly lit up.
After thinking about it, he immediately understood. The death of more than a hundred people was equivalent to a sacrifice in this divine city. That old priest had sacrificed himself and all his subordinates to the God of Blood Sun.
However, just this bit of power was far from enough to awaken the God of Blood Sun. This EsGod was very powerful. If he wanted to revive him, he would need more spirituality and life force. There might be some hope if the number of sacrifices increased tenfold.
However, even if this EsGod could not be revived, this was his home ground after all. He might do something because of this.
However, just as he was thinking this, a force suddenly appeared above the talisman, and the light above was instantly suppressed.
In that glance, he had already seen it clearly.
It was a sword.
A sword formed by the light in his heart.
He looked at it for a moment. This should be the work of those cultivators. It seemed like there was no need to worry about these EsGods for the time being. Now, he had to consider how to deal with the Army of God.
With his current strength, he was still not strong enough to fight against the person who seemed to have inherited the divine robe.
He thought for a moment and said, "Seems like this is the only way." He immediately called out in his heart. As two rays of light flickered, Xuan Zhang and Hun Zhang appeared in front of him.
Honghe Pass.
Dou Chang and the others looked solemnly at the other side of the mountain pass. About two thousand Bloodfeather warriors were marching forward in an orderly manner. Although the cannons kept raining down, when the blood mist on their bodies condensed together, the cannonballs that had previously been successful were all shattered into pieces. They had no effect at all.
Ever since the battle sixty years ago, the remnants of the Blood Sun Ancient Kingdom had only organized a large-scale attack thirty years ago. At that time, the Profound Palace had yet to recover, and it was mainly thanks to the help of the Divine Guards that they were able to stop the attack.
It was also in that battle that the Army of God saw how weak Xuanfu was and began to expand day by day. However, at that time, there was still Governor Yang Xuan suppressing them, so they did not become unrestrained.
Due to that setback, the remnants of the Blood Sun Ancient Kingdom seemed to have realized that they could not break through head-on. After that, they gave up on large-scale attacks and had always used a small number of elites to launch surprise attacks. They had never mobilized so many Blood Feather Warriors again.
Dou Chang said in a deep voice, "The protectorate has a rough estimate. The remnants of the Blood Sun Ancient Kingdom have about four to five thousand Blood Feather Warriors. This time, at least half of them have been mobilized. This might not even be all of them. Junior Brothers, prepare for a tough battle."
Qi Wu, Fan Lan, and the others nodded.
Dou Chang looked at the camp of the Army of God in the distance.
Although they were here this time, and the three Marquises of the Army of God were also here, it did not seem difficult to stop the enemy's attack. However, he vaguely felt that the actions of the remnants of the Blood Sun Ancient Kingdom might be related to the Army of God.
He had to prepare for the worst.
With a wave of his hand, he summoned a servant and said, "Have you reported everything that happened here?"
The servant replied, "Yes, everything has been reported."
Dou Chang gestured, and the servant hurriedly produced a pen and paper. He took the paper and wrote down the current situation and his own views. Then, he handed it to the servant and said, "Use the fastest secret channel to transmit this."
At this time, he heard a series of orders, the sound of drums, and the sharp whistle of bone whistles. He waved his hand and dismissed the servant. Turning the edge of the city walls, he saw rows upon rows of soldiers forming up below.
These people were clad in full armor, with steel shields in front and steel spears at the side. A circular saber hung from their waists, and they wore red helmets. As they stood there, they exuded a cold and austere aura.
Gazing into the distance, he saw such soldiers forming up in the various forts. "Is the vanguard about to move out?"
The most elite of the protectorate's Commandant army was the five thousand vanguard soldiers clad in secret armor and wielding blood-piercing spears. Their armor and weapons were all made in Tianxia and could contend against the Blood Feather Warriors head-on.
Back then, the tens of thousands of soldiers of the protectorate army all wore the same armor, but this was all they could muster at present due to loss and damage.
These soldiers stood there silently, waiting to set out.
The Blood Feather Warriors hadn't crossed the river yet. Even with the priests following them, it wasn't so simple to smooth the turbulent river. And once they reached the river, it would be impossible to maintain a complete formation, and the cannons above would have room to vent. After this last round of attacks, they would choose an opportunity to attack.
On top of a fort some distance away from Xuanfu's group, three marquises of the Army of God were also watching the battle.
Qi Dian was exercising his fists. Seemingly bored, he said to Pang Gong and He Jiang, "When can I go up there and have a good fight?"
He Jiang looked back at him and said, "Marquis Qi, there will be places where you can use martial arts in the future. For now, please be patient."
Pang Gong echoed, "Yes, Brother Qi. Although I dream of becoming a charging and trapping warrior, I can only suppress the hot blood in my chest due to military orders. Please be patient."
Qi Dian snorted, crossed his arms, and sat down.
He Jiang turned back and continued to pay attention to the battlefield. After a long while, he seemed to have sensed something and turned to look in a certain direction. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "The Mad God is here."
Upon hearing this, Qi Dian stood up, his entire body brimming with fighting spirit. "Where?"
He Jiang didn't say anything and only stared in a certain direction.
Qi Dian followed his gaze and saw that a large area of the dense forest was collapsing, as if something had passed by and flattened it. Moreover, it was moving very quickly. When it reached the edge and was about to rush out of the dense forest, the movement suddenly stopped.
After a long while, a black light flashed, and with a loud boom, hundreds of giant trees exploded. A huge gap appeared at the edge of the forest, revealing a huge and strange body.
Its upper body was that of a human, and its lower body was that of a lion. However, apart from the head, the rest of the human body had all kinds of insect limbs, and its body was covered in feathers of various colors. Countless tiny insects crawled in and out of the feathers, and at its tail were poisonous snakes tearing at each other.
As soon as it appeared, it stared at the fort at the pass with ferocious eyes. It let out a series of crazy roars, and the light all over its body flickered. It seemed completely irrational.
He Jiang looked and said in a deep voice, "The Mad God is here. Marquis Qi, Marquis Pang, wait for Xuanfu's men to go up. We'll act according to the original plan!"
