Chapter 128: Go Wild

The relationship between the Holy See and the Gospel of Steam is somewhat similar to the relationship between the central court and local vassal states. He does not have the ability to let the local vassal states overthrow the central court and replace it, but the cost and risk of letting the central court eliminate the local vassal states are too high, so it has become the current relationship.

In terms of the power system of Taoism, the Gospel of Steam has three immortals, a patriarch, a cardinal, and a dean of a monastery. Under normal circumstances, there are only two immortals stationed in the North Continent, which is the same as the Western Daomen in the South Continent. Although there are still ancient gods in the South Continent, the Holy See also has apostles. When the Holy See just came to the New World, the apostles fought a divine war with the local ancient gods and won a great victory. The realm of all things competing is still in front of us, and the ancient gods live in the kingdom of God, so it is difficult to directly intervene in the struggle among the human world, which is not a concern.

However, this does not mean that after the outbreak of a full-scale war, the Gospel of Steam will be isolated and helpless, and the Holy See will definitely come to help. There is indeed a contradiction between the Holy See and the Steam Gospel. The two sides have also had conflicts in order to compete for the dominance of the Northern Continent. In the end, the Steam Gospel won. The Gospel Department and the Judgment Department became enemies, but the Steam Gospel did not drive out the Holy See. There were more changes in the top management. The Western Continent and the Northern Continent are still in close contact, and the Holy See still has huge interests in the New Continent.

But if the Western Daomen and Tawanting seize the New Continent, there will be no interests. In any case, the Steam Gospel is also the Holy See. No matter how you fight, no matter who falls into the hands, the Northern Continent is still named "Holy" and is still under the glory of the Supreme Will. If it is replaced by the Western Daomen, then the surname will be changed, and it will become the glory of the Supreme Daozu, so the Holy See will certainly not be indifferent.

Under normal circumstances, the two sides are evenly matched, and the Western Daomen cannot raid Saint York.

It's just that things are changing. Long before the outbreak of the Fenglinzhou war, the situation in the Netherlands, Ibia, and Rune was tense. After a few years of delay, the war finally broke out. With the support of the Austrian Parliament and the Steam Gospel, the Kingdom of Rune has taken the upper hand. The king of Rune has always been resistant to the Holy See. In order to maintain the balance and prevent Rune from being the only one, the Holy See must either directly support the other two or force a ceasefire. Because of the existence of the Dao Sect, the Pope had to choose the second way. The pastor of the Steam Gospel must support Rune, so he naturally cannot be absent from this cardinal meeting.

This finally led to the temporary defense vacuum in the northern continent.

The original plan of the Western Dao Sect was not to attack Saint York, but Saint Francesco. However, after learning that the Patriarch had left, Huangfu Ji temporarily changed the plan. Of course, he had to listen to the advice of the old man Gong and leave after one strike. He could not stay for long, but changed his goal and went straight to Saint York.

In short, under various changes, many people in Saint Francesco escaped, some escaped the cleansing of the Gospel Department, and some escaped the raid of the Western Dao Sect.

The only one injured was Saint York.

In fact, Qi Xuansu also inadvertently helped Huangfu Ji, that is, to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

The top leaders of Steam Gospel can ignore the explosion in the lower city, because there are rats in the sewers there. As long as the overall situation is not affected, the factories in the lower city are not affected, and production is not affected, it doesn't matter. Steam Gospel can also ignore the crash of the airship at sea, because it is the city council's business. As long as the city council does not take the initiative to ask for help, it can also pretend not to know. ….

But this time, we can't be indifferent.

The crashed airship belongs to the Gospel Department, and the dead are also from the Gospel Department. They are all our own people.

This is a slap in the face of Steam Gospel, and there must be an explanation.

So after the accident, the cardinal left St. York and came to the scene of the incident in person.

If Qi Xuansu had been a step later, he would have been blocked by the cardinal.

This is also one of the reasons why Qi Xuansu killed people directly. It was a bit risky to talk a few nonsense words, and there was no time to search the soul or take the person away.

This invisibly created an opportunity for Huangfu Ji, and to some extent played the role of making a feint to the east and attacking the west.

Since it is a one-shot move, the target chosen is very important.

Huangfu Ji had no interest in the Lower City District, where there were all those pathetic slaves. He had not fallen to the point of showing off his martial arts by killing slaves. He was also not very interested in the Middle City District, where there were still many civilians, for the same reason.

If you want to do something, do it big.

Huangfu Ji was very interested in the Upper City District. He happened to be carrying a "Phoenix Eye Armor II".

In theory, the "Phoenix Eye Armor II" was strictly controlled, and even Qi Xuansu was not qualified to use it. However, a long time ago, the Dao Sect supported a batch of "Dragon Eyes" and "Phoenix Eyes" from some strategic considerations.

As for how the Western Dao Sect would use it, it was up to the Western Dao Sect to decide.

Because Saint York was not a special city like Yujing and the Holy Seat, nor was it an old and powerful city like Dijing, it was established a short time ago and did not have a large-scale covering array, so the "Dividing Water and Opening the Earth Shuttle" appeared directly and unimpeded over Saint York.

Almost at the same time, the Upper City District responded immediately. Although St. York did not have an overall defense system, each floating island had its own defense means, which was a bit like sweeping the snow in front of each door.

The "Divine Shuttle of Dividing Water and Opening the Earth" hovered, and the people of the West Dao Gate, led by Huangfu Ji, appeared one after another.

The rocks below many floating islands opened dense hidden gun ports, and machine guns were protruding from them, firing fiercely at the group.

The people of the West Dao Gate had been prepared for a long time, and they scattered and destroyed these machine guns.

Huangfu Ji had already chosen the target, which was the floating island where the Gospel Department was located, which was also the place where Dennis and Sun Zhongnu left by airship.

It was also the Gospel Department that was unlucky. Usually, the place was heavily guarded, but today the situation was special. First, Dennis and Sun Zhongnu took a group of people away, and then Dennis and Sun Zhongnu had an accident. Another group of people followed the cardinal to the scene of the airship crash. Now only Milton and a few people were left. I have to say that Qi Xuansu really helped a lot.

At this time, the floating island had opened the defense barrier, like a light blue transparent eggshell wrapping the floating island.

Huangfu Ji smiled coldly, stretched out his hand and took out a half-person-high black longbow. Looking closely, the two ends of the longbow were surrounded by two blood-colored auras. As for the bowstring, it was even more peculiar. I don’t know what material it was made of. It was about the thickness of a baby’s little finger, hollow inside, and seemed to have blood flowing.

Then Huangfu Ji drew his bow and put an arrow. This arrow was not an ordinary arrow, but a martial arts fist.

Huangfu Ji was a pseudo-immortal martial artist.

The veins on Huangfu Ji's arms bulged, like tiny dragons unwilling to lie dormant, and seemed to be able to break free and fly away at any time. ….

At the same time, the blood and qi in Huangfu Ji's body were no longer restrained, and suddenly burst out. The blood and qi in his body flowed like a big river, and the sound of the flow was clearly audible. It also dissipated through the hair, making the body full of visible blood and qi. The temperature around him continued to rise, and the air was distorted. He looked like a bloody sun.

This big bow was pulled to perfection.

Although there was no arrow visible to the naked eye, the soaring fist intent was very real.

The so-called frightened bird, even if it is drawn but not fired, the ferocious fist intent alone is enough to make the weak people's liver and gallbladder break and die of fear.

The invisible arrow directly pierced through the defense barrier of the floating island. Although it failed to completely destroy the barrier, it opened a huge hole with a diameter of about 100 meters.

For Huangfu Ji, it was enough.

Huangfu Ji flew straight into the hole.

At the same time, Milton finally showed up.

Huangfu Ji shot another arrow without a word.

This arrow was not only powerful, but also extremely fast and difficult to dodge. Although Milton barely dodged it, he was still pierced in the lower abdomen, and a fist-sized hole appeared. There was no flesh and blood in it, but a scene of space disillusionment, like a deep starry sky, like a dead void, pitch black, and at the same time, there was a wonderful scene like glass shattering.

On the line of the arrow, there was not only blood-red blood gas residue, forming a tail mark, but also a distorted scene that was constantly shaking.

It was the application of the human immortal inheritance to break the void realm, which was to shatter a line of vacuum.

It is not necessary to punch, archery is also an extension of punching.

In terms of the control of the martial arts inheritance, Qi Xuansu is not as good as Huangfu Ji.

Although there is no such thing as a paper-made warrior, Qi Xuansu is too mixed and inevitably not skilled, while Huangfu Ji is a natural warrior, a pure warrior. He is only one step away from the realm of human immortals before he has lived for more than a hundred years. In a sense, his qualifications are not inferior to those of exiled immortals. He is a natural human immortal genius. Moreover, the human immortal inheritance of the Western Dao Sect is more complete than that of the Dao Sect, which has always respected the two immortals of heaven and earth.

Milton, as a cardinal priest, is naturally not to be underestimated, but even he, when suddenly faced with such a terrifying arrow, he just barely avoided the vital points in a hurry and was not shot through the heart, but the impact caused is still not to be ignored. Not only can the wound not heal, but a lot of blood also gushed out of the mouth and nose, which is very scary.

Huangfu Ji then put away the bow and stepped forward.

Milton practiced divine arts intensively, relying on the advantage of the terrain, when the divine power was full to the extreme, he directly raised the nail hammer in his hand and used the legendary divine art.

The light of judgment

A huge beam of light, with an extreme brightness that does not allow for the existence of anything else, descended from the sky.

This beam of light is bright and blazing, like a flame that burns to the extreme and emits white light; it is even more ruthless, high above, not allowing any objection, no impurities, no opposition, as if it is the spear of judgment cast by the goddess from heaven to the world, fiercely stabbing Huangfu Ji.

Moreover, the coverage of the entire beam of light is extremely large, almost covering the entire floating island. Milton, as a believer in light, has partial exemptions and is not afraid at all, but Huangfu Ji has no way to avoid it, no way to hide, unless he leaves the range of the floating island.

However, Huangfu Ji did not want to hide, he looked up at the sky, and pushed his right palm upwards, which was somewhat similar to the "fearless seal", but not exactly the same.
