Chapter 381 The Holy City Of The Light Wing Empire, The Holy Icon Of Lucifer Seraph!
"When was the last time you contacted Little Saintess?" Chen Yu turned to Sophia and asked.
"Three months ago," Sophia replied, "it was a messenger sent by the Radiant Wing Empire for help."
"At that time, the route the messenger took was the same one we are currently on."
"The collapse of the world passage should have happened within these three months."
In a world, there is not just one world passage.
The larger the world, the more world passages there are.
The Radiant Wing Empire, a large small world, has nine world passages leading to different worlds.
"Do you know which demons invaded this world?" Chen Yu asked the demon kneeling on the ground.
"Sir, I know Lord Clavides and Bloodthorn Grand Lord," the demon quickly replied, "I followed Lord Clavides to this world."
"Bloodthorn Grand Lord?" Sophia's expression changed.
"You know?" Chen Yu looked at Sophia.
"The demons refer to beings above the Saint Rank as lords, and the title of Grand Lord represents a true Abyss Lord," Sophia replied.
Abyss Lord, also known as Rank Eight Golden Boss.
"With an Abyss Lord involved, the Radiant Wing Empire might have been destroyed, right?" Chen Yu's face looked grim.
If the Radiant Wing Empire was gone, in such a large small world, where would he find Little Saintess?
"Not so soon," Sophia said, "there are also lord-level beings within the Radiant Wing Empire, and even the Pope himself is a lord-level powerhouse under the crown."
"They should only be retreating and giving up most of the areas."
"Do you know where the remaining forces of the Radiant Wing Empire are?" Chen Yu continued to ask the demon.
"The Radiant Wing Empire?" The demon looked confused, obviously not familiar with the name Radiant Wing Empire.
This was just a rare Rank Four demon, accompanied by a few hundred fallen ones, very weak.
It was like a stray dog squatting on the ground, unable to even drink soup, only picking up bones.
It was normal not to know the names of Daoist forces without being summoned by a demon lord.
"Clean them up."
Chen Yu summoned a Bloodthirsty Heart Demon and said lightly.
The Bloodthirsty Heart Demon released countless tiny seeds with a wave of its hand.
After a moment, not even ashes were left of the demons and fallen ones.
"Master, the Radiant Wing Empire can give up any area, but they will definitely not give up the Holy City," Sophia said.
"The Holy City is a symbol of the Church and the last stronghold. As long as we move towards the direction of the Holy City, we will definitely find the remaining forces of the Radiant Wing Empire."
"Alright, lead the way."
...
Guided by Sophia, Chen Yu quickly traversed the Abyss-corroded area.
Before long, Chen Yu noticed a familiar terrain.
It was the town where he first completed the potential mission and saved Little Saintess.
By now, the town had been abandoned, with only broken buildings and white bones left.
After Chen Yu's first departure, the Radiant Wing Empire should have reclaimed this area.
Now it had been reoccupied by the Abyss.
The traces of Abyss corruption were still faint, even weaker than during the first trial mission.
This also indicated that the demons had not taken control of this area for long.
Two hours later, Chen Yu and Sophia had already left the Abyss-corroded area, still in a desolate and dilapidated scene.
This time, the footsteps of the demons were faster than Abyss.
By evening, the number of demons and fallen ones gradually increased.
After advancing for hundreds of kilometers, Chen Yu finally discovered a human city surrounded by numerous Abyss creatures.
It was a magnificent fortress, with war weapons densely covering the city walls.
On the ground near the city walls, blood gathered into rivers and corpses piled up like mountains.
Every moment, demons and fallen ones would rush towards the city, only to be killed by the human army.
"Has Rosenburg already suffered such a level of attack? It seems that the Radiant Wing Empire is truly in dire straits," Sofia said with a serious expression.
"Is Rosenburg highly regarded?" Chen Yu asked.
"Rosenburg is one of the seven fortresses guarding the Holy City," Sofia said, "The seven fortresses are also the Sacred Land of the Holy See, and each one is presided over by a cardinal of the Holy See."
"The position of a cardinal in the Holy See is even higher than the Pope of other worlds, second only to the Archbishop and on par with the Saintess."
"The area within the seven fortresses is the heart of the Radiant Wing Empire."
The demon's attack seemed fierce, but in reality, the intensity was not high, with very few demons above Rank Five participating.
Chen Yu had no intention of helping and directly led Sofia to bypass the fortress.
As they crossed the defense line, the density of demons and fallen ones suddenly decreased.
Between hills and plains, there were well-preserved human cities scattered everywhere.
Each city had a large number of armored soldiers patrolling, vigilant against possible infiltrations by Abyss raiders.
Late at night, Chen Yu and Sofia finally arrived at the Holy City of the Radiant Wing Empire.
It was simply an artificial natural barrier.
On the hundred-meter-high city walls, the traces seemed to tell the stories of the past.
A strong sacred aura was constantly emanating.
Even in the dark night, the city was as bright as day.
Standing outside the city, one could see a huge angel sculpture standing among the clouds in the city.
The angel sculpture held a sword in one hand and an open book in the other.
With a smile on its lips, it looked down upon all living beings.
Behind it were six pairs of spread white wings, almost enveloping the entire holy city.
Beams of light shone down from the wings.
"That is the symbol of the Holy City of the Radiant Wing Empire, the Lucifer Archangel Holy Image," Sofia introduced.
"This angel is called Lucifer?" Chen Yu raised an eyebrow.
For believers in the God of Earth, this was not a good name.
"No, Lucifer is a category of angels, symbolizing light and hope," Sofia explained.
"In the legend of the Holy See, the Supreme Creator created heaven, the world, and the celestial bodies beyond."
"The angels born from the sun are called Lucifer, and they spread their light to the mortal world."
"In addition to the symbolic angel of the sun, Lucifer, there are six other categories: the star Uriel, the moon Sariel, the death Gabriel, the life Raphael, the guardian Michael, and the authority Raguel."
"The Radiant Wing Empire is the follower of Lucifer, which is also the origin of the empire's name."
"I see," Chen Yu nodded.
From the introduction of the Potential Trial mission, the little Saintess should be a Lucifer, and she is also the leader among the Lucifers.
The Holy See of the Radiant Wing Empire is the highest ruler among the Holy See forces in this world, and they happen to worship Lucifer.
From this, it can be inferred that the little Saintess reincarnated into this world with a purpose, not by chance.
It is very likely that she wants to use the faith of this world to achieve a certain goal.
So, is the large-scale invasion of the Abyss also because of her?
