Chapter 208 Expedition!(2/3)
The horse, with its eyes glowing red, must not be an ordinary horse.
In short, the place exudes a busy and solemn atmosphere, like a military base.
Neo turned the car to the right, got off the road, and drove on the beach for a while before finally stopping in front of a very high rock.
"get off."
Karen followed Neo out of the car and saw Neo climbing up the rock, so Karen climbed up with him.
Finally, the two of them reached the top of the reef. When Karen poked his head out, he saw a huge hole on the shore in front of him. The height of the hole was the same as the St. Tor Building, a landmark building in downtown Vienna.
At this time, a trembling sound came from the dark cave entrance, and Karen could feel the tremor even though he was so far away.
After a while, an army formation marching in neat steps appeared from the entrance of the cave. Each infantryman was wearing black armor, holding a huge black shield, and had a knife at his waist.
The sun shone on their bodies, reflecting a frightening cold light.
Behind them, another military formation armed with crossbows appeared. Each man held a black longbow in his hand and carried three bags of arrows on his back. Although the armor on their bodies was also black, it was obviously light and thin.
a lot of.
After that, there were what looked like catapults.
Following closely behind was a phalanx of horse-drawn carriages, which looked very much like chariots, but not because each carriage carried a black coffin stacked one on top of another.
Karen was fascinated by what he saw. He turned around and found that the captain was holding a telescope made of crystal.
As if feeling the gaze from Karen, the captain reached out and broke the telescope with a click, and handed half of it to Karen.
"Thank you, captain."
"It's okay, crystals are cheap, lenses are expensive, just put some spirituality into it."
Karen pointed one eye at the telescope and input spiritual power. In an instant, an immersive feeling appeared. It not only has the ability to see far away, but also seems to be able to converge light and shadow, allowing you to
Focus on the area you want to observe as much as possible.
Shield, knife, armor, long bow, arrows...
Karen matched the prices of their equipment in the coupon shop one by one, and couldn't help but sigh, this is definitely an army built with a large number of coupons.
Of course, considering that these are forged by the internal workshops of the Cult of Kosmos, its actual manufacturing cost will definitely be much lower than those sold outside.
Although the armies of all countries have now entered the era of hot weapons, Karen has seen the ironclad ships of the Venn Empire Navy more than once at the York City Port, but this army that is moving out of the cave is enough to make any army of any country feel...
despair.
Although they still use cold weapons, the weapons in their hands cannot be distinguished by "hot and cold" weapons.
The intermediate order shield in the hands of the shield soldiers has a formation engraved inside it. Even if a cannon is fired at it, the shells can only be bounced away and cannot cause any damage to the shield. The longbows and arrows in the hands of the archers,
It can shoot an unknown number of times further than a bullet, and can also carry out specific targeted strikes.
Those catapults are even more terrifying. They can project "plague", "disaster", "bloodthirsty" and "brutal", and hit the enemy's position with one shot. If the opponent is just an ordinary army, a group of people will soon become
A madman-like existence kills his comrades, and these negative attributes can also be contagious.
However, Karen noticed the badge marks on the armor of these soldiers, and he recognized them as the Third Knights.
This is the active knights. The reserve garrison is retired from each legion, so the armor they wear will be retained when they are assigned. There will be a situation where each knight is in a reserve garrison camp, but this will not happen with the active knights.
.
"Why is there a coffin too?" Karen couldn't help but ask.
In the information he had read before, only the First Knights were formed after the "resurrection of the dead" and were known as the most powerful knights.
"Each knighthood will have a portion of its quota, which is used to perform tasks with high mortality rates, such as exploration, formation charging, and rearguard action."
"Suicide Squad?"
"Oh, it's the death team."
"Yes, the captain is right."
"I see that there is no flagpole on the carriage. It is a sacred weapon of our religion. These corpses have been processed and the spiritual power in the body has been sorted out. When the commander orders 'wake up', the flagpole will burn to help the caster transfer."
The price of waking up."
"Oh, so that's it."
"But the cost of awakening is still very high. The higher the realm and the more powerful you are in life, the greater the cost of awakening. It is said that there are still many bones of temple elders in the First Knight Order."
"This, it's scary to think about it."
"Oh, I feel terrible as a person myself, let alone other churches. The power of the Cult of Kosmos lies in its fists. The dead can become combatants, and the living people can quickly become combatants after they die in battle.
.
Even by using some special means, the killed enemies can be used as combat power.
Who would be willing to face such an opponent, and who would dare to face such an opponent?"
"It would be fine if it didn't develop, but now that it has developed, it's really terrible."
"Do you know what my teaching relies on to develop?" Neo asked.
"It depends on... light."
In the era of the rise of Order, the Cult of Kosmos was almost a knife in the hands of the Religion of Light. When the Light wanted to punish someone, the Cult of Kosmos was always the first to respond and immediately launched a war of conquest instead of shouting to build momentum.
, but really.
In the last era, the God of Order killed and suppressed many gods, many of whom were "evil gods" certified by the God of Light.
In short, that was the period when light and order were most closely related.
However, after the decline of the Guangming Cult, they can no longer grasp this increasingly sharp knife, and may even be hurt by this knife.
Many records have been deleted, but the traces of deletion are a kind of evidence. If the order did not do anything when the light died, why did it deliberately erase the relationship between the order and the light later?
There must be more than just the reason why the light is declining and dying and is not worthy of order, because order can completely inherit the "light legal system" and more legitimately dominate the church world, but the Cult of Order has not chosen to do this.
Neo smiled and said: "Order needs the guidance of light, but once the order grows, any existence that dares to override the order will be the target of being broken."
"This is the first time I have seen such a large-scale knights." Karen said with emotion.
"The knight hasn't come out yet."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
A low and suppressed neighing sound came from both sides of the cave entrance, and cavalry rushed out.
These knights are holding long spears and wearing sabers on their waists. They look mighty and tall. At the same time, the mounts on their crotches are also wearing armor, but the composition of the war horses is different. Many are not in the shape of war horses, but more like some kind of demon that was deliberately cultivated.
Beasts, and more than half of the mounts inside have a strange other color in their eyes. They are dead mounts, or mounts that have been transformed.
Not by waking them up, but by using their skeletons to transform them.
Many of them are lizards, which are the raw materials for the barbecue that the captain likes to eat. It is said that lizards have the blood of ancient dragons.
When these cavalry appeared, Karen felt that nothing in the world could stop them.
"You didn't expect that the Cult of Kosmos still has this side?"
"Yes, captain, I have only read some records before, so I can only be considered aware of it, but this is the first time I have seen it."
"Same as our Whip of Order team is composed of 12 people, the 12 Knights of Order are also derived from the 12 Knights of Order. According to legend, each of the first 12 Knights has personally served as the leader of a knight order.
The 12 Knights and their subordinate garrison troops have no interaction with us. Even the bishop of the region cannot mobilize any of them without an order from the Senate.
Strictly speaking, the establishment and development of the Whip of Order is also based on this reason. The daily work of the church requires violent means to maintain, but the church's legion cannot be mobilized, and can only be constantly enriched and enriched in the name of the Whip of Order.
The power available to you.”
"Do other orthodox churches also have such legions?"
"There must be some. In this era, the gods will not emerge. Without the outbreak of the divine war, the church's legions will definitely shrink and decay. The divine war is not just about the gods."
"So, Captain, where are we?"
Karen looked at himself and then at the captain;
The captain is a traitor, and coincidentally, he seems to be a traitor too;
The two traitors were lying in this position, holding special binoculars in their hands to observe the army. This looked like what spies should do.
The captain specially brought himself as a spy?
But... Karen suddenly thought that the captain had asked him to get out of the car before, but he took the initiative to stay in the car.
"Aren't you curious?" Neo asked.
"curious?"
"I'm curious why the cage space collapsed? You should have entered the communication room with the Son of God. Did you see his reporting process?"
"Yes, I saw it. I saw him reporting to the Master of Pamires that there were spies in the formation maintenance team."
"Well, just like that, the cage space actually collapsed."
"So I think there's a traitor here..."
"So, who do you think the traitor will be?"
To be continued...
