[Chapter 458: The Temple is Destroyed in a Chat]

After a short truce, the Winter Army launched another attack on the Temple.

Compared with the previous time, the Winter Army’s offensive this time was more fierce, and the Megatron also joined the battle, continuously firing in the sky to support the Winter Army below.

Since the God of Magic had fallen, the priests of the Temple found that they could not contact the God of Magic through the magic circle, and naturally there was no way to summon the huge projection of the God of Magic to block the attack of the Winter Army. What caught the

mages of the Temple off guard was that the mages found that the magic they were used to became difficult to use – after the God of Magic used various means to limit the magic power, in addition to the upper limit of magic and various restrictions on spellcasting, it was not without any benefits.

That is, the arcane energy and magic that were strictly restricted became easier to learn and master.

In other words, as long as you are willing to believe in the God of Magic, then even if your spellcasting talent is slightly lower, you can still step into the door of magic and become a qualified mage.

However, after the death of the God of Magic, the framework and constraints were all removed. It became more difficult to mobilize arcane energy and cast magic than before. Many mages were unprepared and did not adapt to this change, and suffered backlash.

“There is also an unexpected gain!”

Through the holographic image, David saw that many magicians in the temple failed to successfully release magic. In the mildest case, the backlash caused the magic power in their bodies to run wild, and it took some time to calm down; in the most serious case, they were directly blown up and seriously injured or even killed. In

the temple area, because a lot of mages lost control of their magic power, the arcane energy in the entire area fell into a state of chaos.

In this environment, the probability of spells going out of control increased again, and more and more mages got into trouble, and the arcane energy became more and more chaotic.

For a time, the mages on the side of the temple fell into a vicious cycle, but the winter army was not affected at all.

Although the Tilan Knights have trained many rangers and hunters who use arcane energy, the arcane energy they use to cast spells is mobilized from their own bodies, and they do not mobilize the energy in the surrounding environment. Relatively speaking, they are less affected by the environment when releasing skills.

Even this chaotic environment indirectly strengthened the combat effectiveness of the Tilan Knights. When a Tilan Knight used arcane shooting, the power was much greater than usual, and it could even cause a chain reaction. If he was lucky, he could not only kill several mages, but also cause nearby mages to fail in casting spells.

So all the knights of the Tilan Knights who knew arcane shooting began to use arcane shooting as their main means of attack. For a time, the battlefield was full of arcane blue-purple brilliance, and occasionally golden holy light flashed.

Boom!

Boom! Bang!

Bang! Bang!

Explosions and gunshots came one after another. Without the protection of the God of Magic, other gods including the God of Light and the God of Shadow did not respond.

The priests of the temple found that not only was there a problem with magic, but even the divine arts given by other gods became difficult to release or even impossible to use.

David realized at this time that the divine arts used by the temple were all based on the casting system created by the God of Magic, but outsiders did not know this.

Now that the God of Magic has fallen and the original spellcasting system has completely collapsed, the most relied-upon power of the Temple has been completely destroyed. The few remaining Templar Knights and Temple Guards are simply unable to stop the attack of the Winter Legion.

Until the main hall of the Temple was captured and turned into ruins under the joint bombing of three Apocalypses, the Archbishop of the Temple still couldn’t figure out how he and the Temple lost?

Why? Why did the Temple lose to Winter City so easily?

Why did the gods they believed in suddenly ignore their devout believers after issuing an oracle?

Why does Winter City have such terrible power?

Why…

The Archbishop was full of doubts in his heart, but there was one thing he was sure of: he and everyone in the Temple would not survive today.

Even if he had never met the ruler of Winter City and had no conversation with him, he knew that the other party would not allow him and others to continue to live in this world.

So he did not beg for mercy, surrender, or plead for countless believers.

The archbishop stood in the main temple, looking up at the tall statues that had cost countless money and manpower and had been properly maintained and preserved. Together with these statues, they turned into dust under the joint bombing of the Tiran Knights and the Megatron…

Sophia watched palaces and buildings being blown into ruins one after another. Even under the command of Sutton-Stewart, not even the broken walls were left, and they would not stop until all the buildings were bombed into powder.

As for all the information and knowledge left in the temple, anything that could be found would be destroyed immediately. From this posture, it was clear that Sutton wanted to completely wipe out the organization of the temple physically.

In fact, Sutton did not need to do it so thoroughly.

With the fall of the God of Magic, the God of Light and the God of Shadow who controlled Belon behind the scenes would sooner or later be pulled out and killed by David.

As for the remaining gods, there was no specific Sakhan to control them. They were all temporarily responsible by the staff on duty at the time. The power of several of the gods was either provided by the God of Magic or by the Sakhan through special equipment.

Now that the Sakhan in the outpost are all controlled by David the Lightforged and Belorn has not responded, the Temple has lost its most important support.

Even if there are believers and priests left, they can’t return to their former strength.

But David didn’t stop Sutton’s behavior. After all, the Temple and Sutton and the Tilan Royal Family have a blood feud. No matter what Sutton does, it’s the Temple’s own fault.

“After this battle, will the Winter Legion continue to sweep all over the Holy Gaunt Kingdom?”

“Yes.”

Although the Holy Gaunt Kingdom is a country controlled by the Temple, each region is still managed by a lord. These lords have soldiers and horses in their hands. With their piety to the Temple, they will definitely persist in resisting.

They will definitely not be the opponent of the Winter Army, so the next period of time will be the best opportunity for Sylvanas Windrunner to accumulate military merits.

“Wait until the war is over, let Sylvanas take over as the leader of the Tilan Knights.” Sophia, who has truly seen how cruel the war is, does not yearn for the battlefield. It is meaningless to occupy the position of the leader of the Tilan Knights.

She has “personally” helped the Tilan Royal Family to avenge their hatred, and she only needs to do things that she is more interested in in the future.

For example, follow David to travel to other worlds, see various scenery, and taste various delicacies.

“Since you don’t want to continue to be the leader, then don’t be one!”

David would not persuade Sophia to just be a figurehead, nor would he reject this proposal in order to deliberately slow down Sylvanas’ promotion.

Strictly speaking, this Tilan Knights was brought up by Sylvanas herself, and the training and personal strength standards were also carried out in accordance with the standards set by Sylvanas.

In a way, Sylvanas is the most suitable person to be the leader of the Tilan Knights. Sutton-Stewart is essentially a commander in the transition period, and Sutton himself should have realized this!

After completely destroying the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt, the Tilan Knights will have a period of rest and recuperation. Sylvanas will definitely take advantage of this time to conduct the final stage of training and let all members of the Tilan Knights become ranger hunters, making it the second unit after the Winter Knights to master mysterious powers.

This is not only an improvement in combat power, but also a symbol of status.

As for fame?

After the war with the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt, the names of the Knights of Tilan and Sylvanas will definitely be known throughout the Brunnia continent – even earlier than the Knights of Winter.

Because the west side of the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt is the so-called Lost Land, which is what the Evernight Empire calls the Fallen Land.

The Evernight Empire will pay attention to the dark elves in this area, and naturally know the situation in the surrounding areas.

The neighbors who have been together for a long time have been destroyed. The dark elves in this area will definitely pay proper attention, and the Evernight Empire will also receive the news.

David is not sure whether it will attract the attention of the dark elves. It is best to continue to believe that his own technology is leading the world and not take the barbaric and backward human kingdom to heart. In

that case, when the Winter Empire moves westward, it can give the Evernight Empire a big surprise – according to David’s plan, when he began to attack the west of the continent, the eastern part of the continent had already fallen into his hands, and his kingdom was likely to have been renamed the Winter Empire.

“When will we go back to Winterfell?”

“Do you want to go back?”

“Yeah!” Sophia had been out for quite a while, and she was a little homesick: “I heard that Glamorgan Castle was demolished?”

“Yes, although the construction speed of the Diggers is amazing, it will take some time to build a new house.”

The point is not the external structure, but the fact that it takes a long time to complete the interior decoration of such a large new house, so even if the exterior is almost built, it will still take some time to actually move in.

“Aren’t you homeless during this period?” Sophia didn’t think there was any problem, and it was okay to live with her parents.

But David didn’t know how to spend this time? Continue to live on the Megatron?

“I have a lot of choices… Do you want to live in another world together for a while?”

Next, he didn’t need to follow him to sweep the entire territory of the Holy Gaunt Kingdom. Weatherby was also responsible for sending officials to take over the place. David just needed to ask about the progress from time to time.

As for which world to go to?

He had a lot of choices, and during this period of time, he vaguely felt that his abilities seemed to have changed a little, so he could take advantage of this time to test them.
