After listening to Du Yuqi's analysis, Xi nodded, and it seemed that she agreed with his judgment.
In fact, Du Yuqi had a third reason that he didn't say. That was that according to the information revealed by the Joker, the information about the extremely powerful artifact was also in Kantwin within the territory of the Delos Empire. Needless to say, the significance of a magic weapon to him was not only a powerful weapon, but also a terrible trump card. So as long as Du Yuqi had the chance, he would definitely take it.
At that time in the Iron Fortress, Du Yuqi returned directly to Earth after the battle with the Joker. He didn't know what happened afterwards. Now he had time to talk to Xi about what happened later.
Xi told Du Yuqi that after they were forced to separate, they suffered continuous attacks from the enemies controlled by the Messenger of Night, Kamaka. They were suppressed to the point where they could not raise their heads. But at this time, perhaps because of the sudden intrusion of the imperial army, or perhaps because of Du Yuqi's tossing over there, the energy supply failed, and the tightly closed steel gate opened after the power outage, and a group of people rushed in.
On the way to the passage, Lin was seriously injured. His magic power was exhausted, so he and Mingxi withdrew from the battle. But at this time, the imperial army rushed up, one after another, and attacked fearlessly. It can be said that Xi was frightened. In the end, Kamaka tried to escape but failed. At the critical moment, his life capsule was shot down by Xi's mind cannon, and then he fought with Xi angrily.
Kamaka is also extremely powerful. He can transform himself and move freely in the darkness. The speed of his attack comes with curses and blindness effects. Xi was once caught in a tough battle. What's more terrifying is that he has the ability to launch a move instantly and deprive both the enemy and us of our vision. In the end, Kamaka was exhausted and died at the hands of Xi.
Having said that, Xi glanced at Du Yuqi and said with a smile:
"You seem to have a Third Class Order of Honor?"
Then she opened her palm, and immediately saw a golden badge shining there, with the words "First Class Medal of Glory" written on it. Du Yuqi sighed, and suddenly felt speechless. Can we still have a pleasant conversation with my sister? Is this the end of our friendship?
Then Xi said:
"Why did the mysterious organization choose to frame me? Now that I think about it, there is a reason. Some of Kamaka's relics also fell into my hands, such as this chip. These people searched my room thoroughly, and they must be looking for this."
As she spoke, she took out another thing, which looked black and inconspicuous, only the size of a fingernail. However, Du Yuqi knew that this thing must contain many secrets and must be decoded with a special machine.
However, what really shocked Du Yuqi was that Xi then revealed a huge secret with a solemn expression! That is, the collapse of the Minsk Cathedral was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster! !
The entire cathedral was not destroyed in the earthquake, but was looted and destroyed after being forcibly attacked! Even Archbishop Rizalius died in that battle. After the Iron Fortress crashed, Xi personally went to see the ruins.
Rizalius turned into a stone statue, with a look of shock and anger on his face, blocking the front of the Minsk Cathedral. There was a hole the size of a bowl on his chest, and the edge of the wound was as smooth as a mirror! The holy object on the Minsk Cathedral, the Holy Silver Cross of Grantis, was looted.
After hearing Xi's words, Du Yuqi was also extremely shocked, because he had joined the Minsk Cathedral and of course knew the background here. It was no exaggeration to say that this was one of the bases of the clergy. Although it seemed to be in a state of disgrace and in a rather embarrassing state, it should never have fallen completely.
Xi shook his head and said:
"It was too late when I went there. I estimate that the Minsk Cathedral was attacked when we entered the Iron Fortress. Do you remember one thing the old Count of the Ratnes family emphasized? He said there were five major reasons why we should choose to save his son, but he couldn't tell us one of them at the time. We found out later."
Du Yuqi nodded and said:
"Yes, the old man did say that. Could he be referring to this incident? If we were still in the Minsk Cathedral at that time... when the nest is overturned, all the eggs will be broken!"
As soon as Du Yuqi thought of this, cold sweat broke out on his back, and he couldn't help but say:
"What means did the other party use to break in?"
Xi said seriously:
"After I arrived at the scene, I also met a seriously injured and dying person. I got a crucial clue from him. But before that, I want to ask your opinion. Who is the backbone of the force guarding the Minsk Cathedral? Is it the archbishop and a group of priests, or the middle and low-level clergy and paladins?"
Du Yuqi immediately said affirmatively:
"Of course it's the lower-level paladins and clergy. The entire Minsk Cathedral is like a big tree, and the bishops and priests are like the treetops above, with lush green leaves that attract attention. But in fact, what really determines the life and death of the tree are the millions of inconspicuous roots buried deep in the soil. If the treetops are cut off, the roots are still there, and there is still a day for the dead tree to revive. But if the roots are rotten, then the tree is doomed to die!"
Xi nodded and said:
"Yes, the other party should have realized this, and they targeted the weaknesses of those low-level Paladins and Clerics!"
Du Yuqi was surprised:
"This group of people should be the largest. How do we start?"
Evening Road:
"The dying paladin revealed that when the enemy attacked, for some reason, the mechanical gloves worn by most of them malfunctioned!"
"Ah?" Du Yuqi said in surprise.
When he first entered the continent of Arad, Du Yuqi came into contact with a crystal-driven mechanical glove, which could increase the strength of the human body to a considerable extent, but at the expense of the accuracy of the attack. So Du Yuqi had used it before, but gave up.
However, for the entire continent of Arad, the crystal-driven mechanical gloves are a groundbreaking invention. Apart from their usual civilian applications, they have directly led to a sharp increase in the number of professionals, mainly berserkers and clergymen.
Why? Because these two professions have a very fatal hard requirement, that is, the strength must reach a certain level, to be able to wield a giant sword and hold a giant soldier. Otherwise, no matter how good the other talents are, it will be useless.
A person who cannot use a weapon with ease cannot become a corresponding professional. This is common sense that even a three-year-old child knows.
The emergence of crystal-driven mechanical gloves made up for the shortcomings of these people. As for its disadvantage of inaccuracy, it was directly ignored. The attacks of these two professions were originally large-scale and mainly range attacks.
Later on, almost everyone had one of these auxiliary equipment, the crystal-driven mechanical gloves, and they created an amazing level of dependence. People with insufficient innate strength would certainly wear them, but people with sufficient innate strength would also wear them - the reason was simple, no one would mind if their own power was greater.
Only those who have improved themselves to a certain level, at least reaching the fourth level, will begin to take it seriously, because at this time they must pursue the accuracy of their shots. Under such circumstances, the cost-effectiveness of crystal-driven mechanical gloves will plummet and be completely eliminated.
However, it is said that with the development of technology, a super version of crystal-driven mechanical gloves has already appeared, but it has not been popularized. The impact of the super version of crystal-driven mechanical gloves on accuracy is minimal.
So, getting back to the point, when the enemy attacked the Minsk Cathedral, the sudden failure of most people's crystal-driven mechanical gloves was a very fatal thing, because all the clergy would use giant soldiers to fight, which meant that the combat strength below the fourth level in the Minsk Cathedral was reduced by at least 60% to 70%, and it happened suddenly, leaving no time for any countermeasures!
Even Du Yuqi could imagine this situation. It was like a dam that seemed very solid, standing still in the face of a raging flood. But when the flood really hit, the dam suddenly collapsed from the inside with more than half of its strength surging! !
The result would be the instant destruction of the dam and the death of people. In the face of such explosive destructive power, even the emergency measures that were prepared were useless. Du Yuqi's mind was much more meticulous than the others. If you think deeply, the mysterious organization originally mastered this weapon of mass destruction, but they had been forbearing and did not use it until the temporary ally Bantu tribe suffered heavy casualties and could not bear the damage and withdrew, and then they entered the field leisurely and attacked and destroyed it in one go! !
In this way, not only the Bantu tribe was weakened, but also the combat effectiveness of the Minsk Temple was greatly reduced, which also played an effective paralyzing role. In the end, all the profits from the attack on the Minsk Temple were pocketed by the enemy. It is creepy to think about killing three birds with one stone.
"Oh, right." Du Yuqi remembered something and couldn't help asking, "Where did Duize go? Is he okay?"
Evening Road:
"After Lin was seriously injured, Duize was also seriously injured. This guy said that he had already lived up to the reward given to him by the Ratness family, so he also retreated. However, I saw that the direction he retreated seemed to be the armory of the Iron Fortress. It seemed that he was planning to make a fortune before leaving."
At this point, Xi frowned and said:
"This guy is so mysterious. He seems to be unable to open up to anyone. There are many suspicious points about him."
