Heroes of Silver Moon Chapter 405

"What is the holy order?" Simon's throat was a little dry.

The presiding judge glanced at him: "A collective divine technique that can purify the entire city of evil at once."

Simon nodded thoughtfully, and at this moment the crown prince asked in due course: "What are the consequences of casting the holy order?"

The presiding judge sighed softly, and said: "After the investigation by the jury, it was found that most of the people in the Acropolis were branded by the Necromancer."

"Once the necromancer activates these marks through the ritual, all the people who have been branded will be transformed into necromantic creatures, and the holy order can destroy all these marks!"

The crown prince nodded clearly, and said, "Isn't this very good?"

Simon gave the crown prince a blank look. Is this person stupid? If it were so simple, would the presiding judge let the two of us make a decision?

The presiding judge shook his head and said expressionlessly: "The brand of the dead spirit is imposed on the soul. If it is forcibly purified, the person who is branded will die directly!"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly stagnated, and Simon and the crown prince were both stunned in place.

Forcibly purifying the branded people will also die? But the presiding judge seemed to have said before that most of the people in Acropolis were branded like this!

Doesn't that mean... Simon and the Crown Prince's breathing gradually became short of breath.

"You want to massacre the city!" The crown prince trembled from anger.

The presiding judge said with a cold expression: "You can think so too!"

Simon also asked anxiously at this time: "Is there no other way?"

Killing most of the people in the Acropolis at once made Simon and the Crown Prince somewhat unacceptable.

The presiding judge shook his head expressionlessly: "There is a way, but there is not enough time. After the jury's speculation, it should be within a few days that those people will be branded and transformed into undead creatures."

The Crown Prince's expression was a bit ferocious, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "You said there is a way, but there is not enough time, what is the way you said?"

Simon also looked expectantly at the presiding judge, hoping to find another solution.

The presiding judge stared at the two men: "Master-level priests can remove the undead brand of several people every day, but the manpower we have now is far from enough, and there is only two or three days at most."

After hearing this, Simon and the crown prince were ashamed.

There are only more than one hundred master priests in the church, half of them are distributed all over the kingdom, and half of them stay in the capital, that is, those of the jury.

Even if everyone took action, within two or three days, at most hundreds of people could be rescued, but the entire royal capital Acropolis had a full 20,000 people!

After a long silence, both Simon and the Crown Prince looked very ugly.

Simon's complexion kept changing, he had been fighting repeatedly, and he finally gritted his teeth: "In this case, I agree to implement the Holy Judgment!"

The crown prince's pupils shrank instantly, and he looked at Simon in disbelief: "You are crazy, that's 20,000 people!"

The presiding judge glanced at the heirs of the royal family and the church, looked at Simon with a little more approval, and looked at the Crown Prince with disappointment.

The heir to the royal family is really not as courageous as the old king!

The face under Simon's mask was ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not crazy. This is the best solution at the moment. Unless you can come up with other solutions, shouldn't we just do this?"

"You!" The crown prince was furious instantly, looking at Simon with disgust.

This kind of **** who cares nothing about human life can actually become the holy son of the church? This is 20,000 lives!

The presiding judge glanced at the crown prince indifferently: "His Royal Highness, please remain calm. If you can't come up with other solutions, then our church will execute the holy order!"

The crown prince rushed up in an instant and grabbed the presiding judge by the collar: "Bastard, this is 20,000 people! Is your church so inhumane?"

Simon quickly went up to dissuade him: "This is indeed 20,000 people, but have you ever thought about it, Your Royal Highness, there are only 20,000 people in the Acropolis, and there are nearly 4 million people in the Silver Moon Kingdom! If you let this person go now With 20,000 people, how many people will die in the Silver Moon Kingdom when the undead natural disaster breaks out in the future!"

Hearing Simon's dissuasion, the crown prince calmed down a little, let go of the presiding judge's collar, staggered back a few steps with a pale face, and murmured: "Is there no other way?"

The presiding judge straightened his clothes, shook his head helplessly, and was not angry at the crown prince's rude behavior.

The Crown Prince turned around and looked outside the house, and then at the city wall in front of the camp, feeling bitter in his heart.

As Simon said, there are only 20,000 people inside the city wall, but there are nearly 4 million people outside the city wall.

No matter from which angle you look at it, perhaps it is best to nip the danger in the bud now!

The crown prince's expression was full of sadness, and his heart was filled with a sense of powerlessness. Facing an imminent massacre, as the crown prince of this country, he had nothing to do.

The presiding judge looked with pity, of course he could feel the grief in the crown prince's heart, but they are just mere mortals, there are always some things that they can't do anything about!

Faced with these powerless things, they can only try their best to minimize the loss.

It took a long time before the Crown Prince recovered his strength, and said in a deep voice, "Don't we still have a few days? Let those priests do their best to save people! As much as they can be saved!"

"No!" Simon and the presiding judge sharply objected at the same time.

Simon and the presiding judge looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

"What? Isn't there still two or three days left? Why can't those priests be allowed to save people!" The crown prince's eyes flashed with anger.

Being unable to stop an imminent massacre already made him very sad, but the **** of these two churches refused to let him save even a few people!

Simon and the presiding judge looked at each other. After a short silence, Simon took the lead and asked, "May I ask His Royal Highness, who are you going to save in the remaining time?"

The Crown Prince was silent for a moment, and then replied: "Let's rescue those nobles first!"

Simon's eyes were fixed, and he asked again in a deep voice: "If you save the nobles, wouldn't it be unfair to those commoners?"

The crown prince frowned, not knowing how to refute, if there were some surviving quotas, wouldn't it be better to give them to the nobles who had power, money and power?

Simon went on to say: "His Royal Highness, I hope you will remember your departure. The royal family you represent is the future king of the Silver Moon Kingdom. Are you an aristocrat?"

"This!" The crown prince was at a loss for words, and seemed a little confused. Aren't nobles more important than commoners?

Simon added: "The people are the cornerstone of a country, and the nobles are just a banner held up by the people. If there are no people, where can the nobles come from?"

"The relationship between the two is roughly equivalent to bread and butter. A country is like a person. You can eat without butter, but you must not live without bread."

The crown prince frowned, looking thoughtful: "Then according to what you said, we should save civilians?"

Simon shook his head again: "There are a total of 20,000 people in the Acropolis, and we can only save a few hundred people at most. No matter who we save, it is unfair to others!"

The crown prince thought for a moment again, and his eyes gradually became strict: "You mean? Even if we have the ability to rescue some people, we still have to watch them die!"

"That's right!" Simon nodded firmly.

"Ridiculous!" The crown prince sneered, and then stopped talking to Simon, he really couldn't understand Simon's thoughts.

Simon sighed secretly in his heart, but he didn't continue to persuade. He gave hope to the desperate people, but he couldn't give hope to everyone. In the end, it would only evolve into a riot.

It has been a while since the Acropolis has been closed, and the people in the Acropolis are in panic. If they find out at this time that the priest is purifying a small number of people, they will definitely have imaginations.

If the two mysterious people hiding in the dark took the opportunity to fan the flames and tell the truth to the people, then the people in the city would definitely storm the city gate in droves.

And once these people with the imprint of the undead escape from the Acropolis, the natural disaster of the undead will expand in an instant, making it impossible for the church and the royal family to stop it. This is a disaster for the Silver Moon Kingdom.

"Your Excellency the judge, do you think so too?" The crown prince looked at the judge again.

The presiding judge had a look of astonishment on his face, obviously shocked by Simon's speech just now.

But after hearing the crown prince's question, he shook his head quickly and said, "No, the preparation for the holy ceremony is very complicated, and it needs to be prepared in advance. The priests of the jury don't have time to do other things!"

"You! You!" The crown prince was so angry that he couldn't speak: "Do as you like!"

Simon and the presiding judge shrugged helplessly, and then the crown prince left sullenly. He is not a high-ranking member of the church. If the presiding judge and the holy son Simon don't speak, he can't order those priests at all.

 …

Three days later, in an underground secret room somewhere in the Acropolis, two people were standing in a room full of blood. The walls of the room were covered with **** runes, and there was a blood-stained altar in the center of the room.

"Hehe, the ceremony is finally ready, it's time to teach Silvermoon Kingdom a lesson!"

"Yeah! I don't know what those people from the Moonlight Church are doing, but they haven't responded at all until now. What a bunch of trash!"

"Heh, this group of hypocrites from the orthodox church is like this. They shout about love and grace all day long, but in fact it's useless at all. They're just being played around by us!"

"Okay, nights are long and dreams are many, let's start the ceremony quickly, and then use the teleportation array to leave immediately, don't overturn the car at the last moment!"

"Hey, by the way, you are really decisive! Are you no longer nostalgic for your identity? The dean of Silver Moon Comprehensive Magic Academy, Your Excellency Gansel!"

The burnt man stared at the masked man teasingly, and the masked man slowly took off the mask, his eyes were completely blank, it was Gansel who was peeping at the secret of Simon.

Before, in order to find out the secrets of Simon, he collected several materials of the incantation in the black market, and planned to search Simon for the secrets.

But due to various accidents, Ganssel has not been able to catch Simon.

The souls of mages who practice necromancy will inevitably be eroded by evil gods, and master mages like Ganssel are no exception.

As time went by, Gansel degenerated step by step into the lackey of the evil **** and began to work for the evil god.

This time, the matter of Wangdu and Wangdu Acropolis was caused by the joint efforts of him and another disciple of the evil god, code-named [Archbishop] under the orders of the evil god!

Gansel glanced at [Archbishop] coldly: "There's so much nonsense, hurry up and hold the ceremony!"

[Archbishop] snorted coldly, stopped arguing, and began to recite obscure prayers in the evil underground chamber.

On the city wall, there was a priest at every other section of the city wall, and the church's jury stood evenly on the city wall, looking down at the Acropolis below in an enclosed shape.

The holy light sphere condensed in front of a priest's staff gradually became extremely black. The priest's face remained unchanged, and he quickly reported the matter to the presiding judge.

"They started, let's start too!" the presiding judge ordered to the surrounding priests.

"Yes!" All the priests responded one after another, and then used their holy power to communicate with other priests on the city wall.

Simon was wearing the robe of the Son of God, a fox mask on his face, and a hexagram-shaped magic circle under his feet. A priest stood at each corner of the magic circle, and he stood in the center of the magic circle.

After receiving the order from the presiding judge, the six priests around Simon began to chant prayers, and then the other priests on the city wall also began to chant prayers.

Simon stood in the center of the magical array, full of anxiety. When the Pope asked him to come here, he didn't say that he should be a medium to carry the power of the Holy Judgment!

That's right, Simon's position should have been the presiding judge's position. The person standing in this position should act as a medium to communicate with the gods, and carry and release the power of the holy order.

Originally, Simon actually refused. He is a middle-level mage to carry the holy power of the gods. Isn't this a joke? It's not too bad to change to the presiding judge, a master-level priest!

But the presiding judge told him that whether he could carry the holy power had nothing to do with his strength, it all depended on his affinity with the gods.

Among all church personnel, apart from the Pope, the Holy Son has a higher affinity with the gods, and Simon, the Holy Son, doesn't have to do anything, just stand in the center of the magic array.

The presiding judge has talked about this, what can Simon do, he can only agree with doubts!

As the priests chanted, a mighty divine power began to pervade, and as long as the conscious creatures in the Acropolis were frightened, they crawled on the ground and did not dare to move.

Simon felt this divine power curiously, his eyes quietly turned into extremely bright golden pupils in the blink of an eye, and then his whole body slowly floated up.

The golden holy power surged on his body, and Simon stared at the Acropolis blankly.

Do not! Or the goddess of moonlight, staring at the Acropolis blankly!

The majestic power that enveloped the Acropolis became stronger and stronger. Simon's eyes turned slightly, and he spotted two heretics who were performing a sacrificial ceremony in the underground secret room at a glance.

In the underground secret room, the two people who were performing the sacrificial ceremony suddenly felt heart palpitations, and the **** runes on the ground and walls suddenly poured into the altar spontaneously.

Almost in an instant, the sacrificial ceremony, which was only halfway through, ended spontaneously, and waves of evil divine power poured out from the altar.

The evil divine power suddenly dissipated, spreading to the entire Acropolis in an instant.

Most of the people in the Acropolis, as well as some city guards and nobles, after merging with these evil powers, their eyes became dull, their complexions became fierce, and their normal canine teeth became sharp.

Human beings who originally possessed rationality began to transform into monsters step by step.

In the cemetery, and under the ground where the bones were buried, the ground began to shake slightly, as if the bones, which were already quiet, were about to return to the world as undead.

What happened in the Acropolis, Simon just glanced at it, and didn't take any action to stop it. He kept his eyes on the two cultists in the secret room.

Looking at what happened in the sacrificial ceremony in the underground secret room, both Gansel and the [Archbishop] felt something was wrong.

What happened just now is as if the thief who was stealing hastily accelerated the pace of theft because of the sudden return of the owner of the house.

The corner of Gansel's mouth twitched, and he said in a deep voice: "No matter what the situation is, since the sacrificial ceremony has been successful, the acropolis must have started to have a natural disaster of undead, so let's use the teleportation array to leave as soon as possible!"

"Hmm!" Sensing that something was wrong, the [Archbishop] didn't quarrel with Gansel, and hurried to another part of the secret room, and started chanting spells to activate the teleportation array.

"Well, what's going on?" [Archbishop] seemed a little flustered.

"What's wrong?" Gansel asked behind the 【Archbishop】.

"The teleportation array can't be used anymore!" [Archbishop] replied with trembling lips.

Gansel's pupils shrank instantly, and then he began to communicate with the evil **** he believed in, but what responded to him was only endless silence.

"This!" The eyes of both of them were full of fear. What kind of existence could make the evil **** directly disconnect from them.

"Have you played enough?" A majestic voice sounded, and the sacred golden light illuminated the darkness in the secret room, and also caused billowing white smoke to rise from both Gansel's bodies, as if they were being burned by the scorching sun.

Simon's figure emerged from the light, frightening the two of them with his majestic golden pupils.

"Goddess of Moonlight, Your Majesty!" Gansel said tremblingly.

【Archbishop】Being coerced and intimidated, he was speechless.

They never imagined that it was actually the Moonlight Goddess descending her incarnation.

"Hmph, I thought your master was going to come to incarnate, but it seems their courage is nothing more than that!" Simon's figure was illuminated by the bright light, making it difficult for others to see his face clearly, and his tone was full of disdain.

Gansel and the [Archbishop] looked at each other with bitterness in their eyes. What can they do with an orthodox deity who is no match for evil gods?

"Since your master has given up on you, then you go hang on the wall of sighs!"

Simon in the light gently raised his hand, and the souls of Gansel and the [Archbishop] were shot out, and they were directly sent by the goddess of moonlight to the kingdom of the **** of life and death.

There, the two will hang on the Wall of Sighs, to be tortured for eternity, a punishment reserved for blasphemers.

After finishing these two people, Simon floated to the altar in the secret room, and said disdainfully: "Oh, you two can die to your heart's content! If you annoy my old lady again, no one will be able to save you then!"

After speaking, the altar exploded, the light in the secret room dissipated, and Simon's figure appeared above the Acropolis again.

In the Acropolis, the people who had already mutated, as well as the corpses that had just crawled out of the ground, were all suppressed by the divine power and could not move.

Simon glanced at it indifferently, and then the souls and vitality of these undead creatures directly turned into starlight, and quickly gathered in Simon's hands.

The soul and vitality condensed into a ball, Simon looked at it and muttered: "It's not a loss!"

Immediately, ripples began to appear in the void in front of him, and Simon threw out the light ball in his hand. This light ball, condensed by the vitality and soul of the people in the whole city, was sent to the divine kingdom of the goddess of moonlight through the ripples.

Inside the Acropolis, the monsters that lost their souls and vitality immediately turned into fly ash and drifted away in the wind, and the entire Acropolis became empty!

Returning to the center of the magic circle, all the priests on the city wall bowed down to Simon, and the presiding judge was no exception.

The person kneeling here is not the son of Simon, but the presence of the goddess of moonlight!

Nodding to these priests, Simon's figure gradually descended, and when his feet touched the ground again~www.mtlnovel.com~ the golden pupil dissipated, and in the blink of an eye, Simon regained his original consciousness.

"Eh?" Seeing the priests bowing down to him, many question marks popped up on Simon's forehead.

What are these people doing? Wasn't it still singing just now? Why did they all kneel on the ground in a blink of an eye?

The presiding judge got up slowly, walked to Simon very calmly, and said, "Okay, Your Highness, the matter has been settled, let's go back!"

Simon: Meow meow?

 …

Somewhere in the magical sea, two wills are communicating.

"Damn it, not only didn't I get anything this time, but I also used my divine power in vain!"

"Hehe, you should be glad that you didn't descend into the incarnation, otherwise you will lose even more!"

"Made, this group of orthodox church members are benevolent and moral all day long, but it was really Nima who was ruthless and ruthless when he attacked the 20,000 people in the Acropolis without blinking an eye."

"Hmph, circumstances are always determined by strength. If people in the orthodox church were really so talkative, we evil gods wouldn't be kicked out and run around the world."

"Do you want to continue?"

"Continue, hehe, didn't you hear the warning from the Moonlight Goddess? If we continue to do things in her ranch, I'm afraid she will really come along the sea of ​​magic power."

"No way! Is the goddess of moonlight so violent?"

"It's not a bad temper, it's pure indifference. As a **** who was born when the world first opened, a natural deity like the Moonlight Goddess has accumulated a lot of cards in her hands. In her eyes, demigods like us are just It's just bigger bugs, you can kill them with a single hand!”

"Hey, let's be quiet first!"
