Pellegrini was certain that the mysterious " Son of God " before him was definitely not from his faction, but he dared not openly resist him and had to give Sun Fei face. Otherwise, the consequences of offending a " Son of God " and the power behind him were something even a red-robed deacon of the Judgment Division could not bear, considering that the Judgment Department of the Northern Region Church Judgment Division had hundreds of red-robed deacons, while the " Son of God " had less than four.
He was intimidated by Sun Fei's feigned mystery, unaware of which faction was behind this " Son of God," or what this faction was plotting by making Sun Fei the King of a first-level imperial vassal state. Perhaps it was related to the soon-to-be-opened " Gate of Gods and Demons," but the cunning Pellegrini refused to ask. The more he knew, the more dangerous it would be, and he didn't want to become a victim of factional infighting.
"There are churches and temples of the Church in the city. You can go there to resupply and rest, but..." Sun Fei nodded in agreement, but the next moment, he looked at the few divine knights and said aggressively, "These people have blasphemed God's glory, misinterpreted God's will, and wantonly harmed God's people. I believe they should pay the price for their cruel act of blaspheming God the Father."
Upon hearing this, the knights turned pale with fright.
They knew all too well the cruelty of punishments and tortures within the Holy Church. Even steel statues were tortured and destroyed until they could speak. If this high and mighty [ Son of God ] really wanted to deal with them, it would be no different from crushing a few chicks. And without a doubt, they would die a very, very miserable death.
"Your Highness, why be angry? These knights were simply overworked these past few days and lost control, making a mistake in a moment. God says forgiveness is a virtue, and we should forgive these sheep who have strayed and returned to the right path. Let each of these knights who erred pay 100 gold coins to these wounded soldiers as an apology, and then repent under God's watchful eye. What do you think?" Pellegrini bowed and, supported by several priests, suggested with a smile, "Each of them came here with the heavy responsibility of eliminating the evil Necromancer Hasselbaink."
Necromancer Hasselbaink?
Upon hearing this, Sun Fei's heart stirred; he had heard of this name before.
The Necromancer Hasselbaink is mentioned in many ancient texts and the poems of bards. He is described as an extremely evil and terrifying demon. He is said to be one of the few remaining elders of the Mages' Union [ Undead Temple ], which was destroyed many years ago. He is extremely powerful and possesses the Undead Magic power of the Great Sun Class. There are even rumors that he can Summon an evil and invincible necromancer bone dragon. This combination of man and dragon possesses incomparably powerful evil power. Wherever he goes, flowers wither, the earth cracks, forests die, rivers dry up, and the living turn into skeletons. Everything becomes a world of death.
But wasn't this person rumored to have been killed by a paladin-level expert sent by the Church? How could he be nearby? And with the strength of these thirty people, how could they possibly be a match for this evil duo? They dare to boast about hunting them down and annihilating them? The other party could crush this whole group with a single finger.
Or rather... Hasselbaink is just a front; what else are these people here for?
Considering the increasing number of mysterious and powerful figures appearing in the vicinity recently, Sun Fei was puzzled, but he didn't press the matter. He coldly snorted, adopting a very impatient posture, and waved his hand, which was a reluctant agreement to Pellegrini's proposal.
Although he was quite annoyed, Sun Fei's aggressive attitude only made the red-robed deacon Pellegrini more certain that the man before him was indeed the " Son of God." He turned around and gave a wink, and the few knights who had been trembling with fear were relieved. They quickly took out gold coins from their bags and politely handed them to the completely bewildered soldiers. They didn't dare to look at Sun Fei again and obediently hid at the back of the caravan.
Pellegrini smiled and thanked him, then turned and got into the carriage. Just as he was about to enter, a sinister glint flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes, gone in an instant. He then got into the carriage, shoved the members of the Divine Judgment Squad, and sped off towards the direction of the Twin Flag City Church and Temple in the distance.
Sun Fei looked at the spot where the group had disappeared, a barely perceptible smile appearing on his face.
He certainly saw the old fox's fleeting, seemingly perfectly concealed gaze, and sensed a hidden killing intent. But so what? Since entering Twin Flag City, Sun Fei had already devised numerous ways to deal with him. With his [ Necro-Sorceress Mode ], Sun Fei was practically a natural nemesis to the Church's priests. Even though this red-robed deacon's strength far surpassed that of Baresi, the priest beside Kaká, Sun Fei's power had also increased during this time, hadn't it?
"My lord, thank you so much for saving my life."
As the Church entourage disappeared into the vast darkness of the night, the soldiers below the city gates knelt down in unison. The situation they had just witnessed was extremely dangerous, akin to walking through the arms of death. The Holy Church had done far too many things that treated human life lightly; killing them was as easy as killing a maggot.
It's no exaggeration to say that Sun Fei saved their lives.
They looked at Sun Fei as if he were a god in the sky, filled with fanatical worship and faith. Indeed, the fact that the Legion Commander was willing to rebuke those high and mighty divine masters and knights for their sake, and that the people of the Church trembled before him like lambs before a demon wolf, overturned the soldiers' inherent thinking and gradually led to the deification of the Legion Commander.
Even the Six-Star Class expert Shevchenko was barely able to suppress the shock in his heart.
He was defeated by Sun Fei in the Imperial Martial Combat Competition, and at that time he was already very impressed with Sun Fei. Later, on the Imperial Martial Saint Mountain, he saw Sun Fei fight against the Eindhoven general Costacurta, who had the strength of Moon Class warrior. He was completely impressed by this suddenly emerging vassal King. That's why he rejected the enticements of many noble groups in the capital and wholeheartedly followed Sun Fei to join the [ Wolf Fang Legion ]. During this time, he had been shocked by Sun Fei too many times. Every time he thought he had seen all of Sun Fei's trump cards, but every time he would soon find out how wrong he was. And what just happened completely overturned the definition that Shevchenko had made for His King.
Shevchenko found himself increasingly unable to see King of Chambord Alexander clearly.
"Chaos has arrived, and the empire doesn't know if it can survive this calamity. Many are beginning to seek new paths for themselves, and it's time for me to make a choice... King of Chambord Alexander, I never imagined you could even command the people of the Holy Church. Are you really the kind of man I would be worthy of my loyalty?"
Shevchenko thought to himself, and quietly clenched his fist.
Although he has a dual personality and often appears mature, steady, and even a bit dull and slow-witted, this does not mean that Shevchenko is stupid. On the contrary, it is because of his habit of observing more and speaking less that slow-witted people are often able to make the wisest choices.
"Send men to keep an eye on all the passages between the Church and the temple, and report their movements to me at any time. I want to see if they really came here to strangle Hasselbaink, or if they have some other motive." Sun Fei turned and walked towards the city wall, giving the order with a cold smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Shevchenko replied respectfully, as if he had made up his mind.
"Hmm?" Sun Fei clearly noticed the change in how the deputy commander of the Wolf Fang Legion addressed him. He paused, turned around, and carefully examined Shevchenko. His gaze swept over the strong man like Daozi, finally revealing a smile. He nodded and said, "Good."
After arranging the city defenses, Sun Fei returned to the city lord's mansion to check on Angela and Elena. He then personally fed the two beautiful women, who were in a deep sleep, some porridge, spent some time with them, and talked with the blonde little Loli Jima. After inspecting the city lord's mansion, Sun Fei returned to the main hall of the west gate watchtower with peace of mind.
It was already late at night.
Inside the main hall of the western gate's watchtower, the victory banquet had ended. Most soldiers wisely maintained their composure and did not become drunk as Sun Fei had envisioned. By the time Sun Fei arrived, they had already evacuated the hall; some had returned to their Barracks to rest, while others had even taken up arms to participate in the city patrol. Sun Fei's personal influence and charisma were once again fully demonstrated in this incident. With the legion commander setting an example, the army's morale and atmosphere were higher than ever before.
Drogba, Pierce, Hulk, and Kanute, the four great warriors, were dispatched by Sun Fei to guard the city lord's mansion. Only Torres, the King's close advisor, was on standby at the west gate's watchtower and main hall.
Sun Fei entered the main hall, calculated the time, and realized that the new game time had arrived. He immediately opened the Teleport, entered the Diablo World, and continued to kill monsters, level up, and improve his strength.
Buzz buzz buzz!
With a soft thud from the Teleport, Sun Fei felt the scenery before him change instantly.
To King Majesty's slight surprise, he did not come to the Diablo World this time. Instead, he was greeted by a long-awaited large screen displaying the class selection options. It was like a deep universe, boundless and limitless. A huge projection screen appeared before him, displaying seven projections of Sun Fei with completely different temperaments and equipment. These were the images of the seven classes in the Diablo World.
The Barbarian class, wielding the [ Bul-Kathos' Children ] set and wearing the [ Bul-Kathos's Comprehended Cage Divine Armor] on both shoulders, exudes the most imposing presence, radiating a powerful aura.
"Just as I expected, after completing the [ Normal Difficulty Version using the Barbarian character, some differences appeared when I re-entered the Diablo world..." After a moment's thought, Sun Fei chose [ Barbarian Mode ] to enter the Diablo World again.
Crimson flames flickered before my eyes, but instead of immediately entering the Diablo World, two lines of text appeared on the light screen—
" Normal Difficulty Version."
Nightmare Difficulty Version.
First update.
