Chapter 49 The Vatican's Ideas
Chapter 49 The Vatican's Ideas
Unless the two sides completely break off relations, there is still a possibility that they can each take a step back.
Before long, Karl discovered that many ducal leaders were coming to the Kingdom of Skywind to visit, all with the purpose of buying magic crystals.
Moreover, these people are quite straightforward when negotiating prices; they'll discuss anything as long as a price is quoted.
When the matter was reported up from below, Karl knew that this was most likely the work of the Dark Church.
"I don't know if they're trying to lull me into a false sense of security, or if they've really given up on their plans."
To say that they would give up completely is not impossible, after all, they have already lost two Saints.
However, many veteran Saint Realm experts have lived for two or three thousand years. Over the long years, very few people have opposed them. This has led to many veteran Saint Realm experts having a self-centered mentality, and they cannot tolerate others refuting them.
"Luo."
Karl's voice rang in Luo's mind. Luo, who was still in his own mansion, was startled when he heard the voice. Realizing that it was his king, he quickly tidied himself up and ran towards the palace.
When Luo ran over, panting, Carl had already been waiting for a while.
"Give the order: those who want to buy magic crystals, there are no restrictions on low-grade ones, but not too many mid-grade ones, and as for top-grade magic crystals, either limit their purchases or don't sell them at all," Karl said to Luo.
From low-grade to high-grade magic crystals, their energy intensity is only between level three and level six, so their power is naturally limited. Only level seven magic crystals can easily kill level seven powerhouses when used as an energy source, and a dozen magic crystal cannons can even kill level eight powerhouses.
Previously, others were unaware of this, so Karl never sold those top-grade magic crystals. But now that the Dark Church knows, it won't be long before everyone in the entire Yulan Continent knows.
After giving his instructions, Karl left the palace immediately. After several days of delay, Karl was already quite impatient.
Stepping through that door, Karl's figure returned to the small, less than ten-square-meter secret room.
"This time, we'll strive to reach the level of 100,000 in the Mysteries of Wind."
Karl glanced at his cultivation progress, which was over 80,000.
Immersed in his reflections, Karl discovered that he was improving by more than ten points every day, and sometimes even more than twenty points.
However, such rapid improvements are becoming less and less frequent. Previously, it was common to maintain more than 20 points per day, but now it may not even happen once a month.
"Perhaps it will take longer and longer to grasp the concepts later on."
Karl naturally knew the reason for this; he was currently at the Saint-level mental power, but that was all.
If we consider the diameter of the area covered by mental energy as the quantity of mental energy, then whether it is clear to see within this area is the quality of the mental energy.
The elemental energy in Karl's current location is almost visible to the naked eye, and one can even sense the power of the laws inherent in these elemental energies. However, once Karl's understanding of the wind element reaches a certain level, a situation similar to the one he is in now will occur.
It's a feeling where you can clearly see the road ahead, but when you actually want to take that step, you find it somewhat uncertain.
While Karl was in seclusion, a sense of unease and panic arose within the Chaotic Realm.
The news of a magic crystal mine worth tens of trillions was initially met with disbelief by those who heard it. However, once they learned that the source of the news was the Dark Church, its credibility increased.
In the territory of the Dark Church within the Chaotic Realm, there are many statues of the God of Darkness, and near these statues, many people constantly offer their faith.
Below a statue, several hundred meters away, is a conference room.
The three men, Rashev and his companions, were still in the meeting room, but none of them looked well.
"His Holiness the Pope just sent word that what we did this time was incredibly stupid," Rashev said, his face ashen.
"What can we do? Should we take action?" Mite's expression was clearly not much better.
On the Chaotic Territory side, the Dark Church's force consists of seven Saint-level experts. Each of them has their own duties. Some are responsible for fighting. Although Saint-level experts do not easily intervene in mortal wars, it is still common for them to act as commanders. With their powerful mental strength, they are like celestial eyes and satellites. As soon as the enemy makes a move, they know the specific arrangements.
The concepts of using stillness to control movement and striking later to arrive first are all capable of disrupting the enemy's battlefield deployment.
Similarly, some people were responsible for spreading the faith, such as Ulamigil.
The statue of the God of Darkness is something that even if a holy domain repairs, it cannot communicate with the god. Only these angels can communicate with the god.
Angels are gifts from God, so while Ulamijir may seem to care about nothing, he actually has to give his approval for the final decisions.
This time, however, things were clearly messed up, resulting in the loss of two Saints, but the Pope only reprimanded them.
This is not something that can be accomplished simply by saying a few words. Since angels crossed planes to preach here when the Church first spread its faith, there are some things in the Church that only god-level powerhouses have the opportunity to obtain.
These things have long been completely consumed, but as long as we can continue to provide the God with a large amount of faith, the God will also reward us with many good things.
Rashev, Mit, and others also hoped that these things could help them advance further.
"Now that things have come to this, let's see how to resolve this first," Ulamijir said.
"Since we won't easily intervene at the Saint-level, let the people below fight for it," Rashev said.
"Okay." Neither of them had any objections.
Soon, under the operation of the Dark Church, the forces belonging to the Dark Church in the Chaotic Territory began to mobilize their troops.
Some cities can only offer one or two thousand, while others can only offer three or five thousand.
However, even if each city can provide very few soldiers, as long as there are enough cities, it is still possible to form a super-large army.
"Oh no! Oh no!"
An urgent dispatch from Chiyang City, 800 li away.
A pale-faced messenger, his sweat dried up from the long journey, stammered as he delivered the message to Luo.
"My lord, there is a large number of troops gathering in Kairo City. They are a huge force, and you can't even tell how many there are."
"How could this be!" Luo was completely flustered.
"Call Kevin and the others over here, quickly!" Luo shouted loudly at the guards beside him.
Soon, Kevin and his group arrived quickly. Even a level nine expert had to be careful when facing such an endless army.
"What exactly is the situation now? Does nobody have accurate information?"
