The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 390 A Gift from Heaven

In the past, when the church held large-scale events, the most difficult problem was how to convey the information to more people.

Last time at the conference, with the resonance magic given by Li as a basis, it became very easy to spread the situation to the public.

Bishop-level clergy stood in specific positions, and everyone circulated magic power together. Powerful airflow immediately radiated in all directions at a specific frequency.

The king's voice was mixed in with the air currents, and a lion-like roar spread throughout the city.

"I am the supreme ruler of the kingdom. I am also the goddess's representative on earth. From today on, I will convey the goddess's will, and I will also realize the people's will!"

Everyone in the capital heard the king's bold words. At the same time, specially arranged officials were on the streets to inform the people that the king was to serve as Pope.

Loud cheers of celebration rang out on the streets, and everyone shouted "Long live the Pope!"

The nobles hiding in the dark did not expect that the king would actually accomplish this task.

They were horrified and wanted to increase their strength to stop it, but it was too late.

Outside the royal capital, the rebels organized by the nobles fought a life-and-death battle with the royal army.

After hearing the cheers of the king becoming Pope, the noble rebels who failed to break through the city gate turned their horses around and left.

Some of the surviving soldiers of the kingdom were crying, while others were laughing. They were happy for the king's victory, but also sad because they were killing each other.

"Alright! His Majesty the King has won the victory, and we have also held our own line of defense. Let's be happy! His Majesty the King will definitely reward us!"

"General, we should call you His Holiness from now on~"

The generals who are loyal to the king have very high leadership qualities.

Making jokes at critical moments can effectively change the mentality of soldiers.

Seeing that the soldiers had returned to normal, the general leading the team breathed a sigh of relief.

However, before the general could completely relax, his heart, which had just been put at ease, was lifted up again.

"Why is it dark..."

"What are those!"

The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with a large dark cloud.

Everyone looked up at the sky and saw that the sun had hidden behind the dark clouds, casting a large shadow on the earth.

Looking closely, the edges of these shadows are shaking slightly, just like a substandard computer that cannot load complex images.

The moving shadows on the ground forced people to look up at the sky again.

I saw that huge dark cloud floating over the royal capital and then stopped moving away.

If the dark clouds were blown by the wind, it would be impossible for them to suddenly hover over the royal capital.

"What kind of monsters are those!"

Some sharp-eyed people recognized the true identity of the dark cloud. They screamed in terror and were terrified by the scene they had never seen before.

"There are so many bats! Run!"

One moment everyone was immersed in the joy of the king becoming Pope, and the next moment, people on the street began to flee in panic.

In an era when science was not yet popular and faith dominated people's minds, the sky being covered by swarms of bats was a terrible disaster no matter how you looked at it.

Disaster has struck, if you don’t run now, when will you run?

The crowd fled in panic, overturning the cordons that blocked their way and the soldiers who tried to stop them.

Some people fell down and were run over by countless pairs of feet, never able to stand up again.

At the critical moment, the king's voice spread far and wide.

"People, don't be afraid. The strange phenomenon in the sky is just a trick of vampires! Those fallen aliens want to destroy the tranquility and peace of the kingdom, but as long as I am here, their evil plan will not succeed!"

The king's voice reduced the level of the commotion a little, and people raised their heads with hope and expectation, looking towards the heights of the temple.

At the top of the hill of the temple, a statue of the goddess stood there. At the foot of the statue were a few tiny human figures. Facing the dark bats in the sky, they did not retreat and showed no fear.

The next moment, the king joined forces with the bishops around him and condensed a divine light.

The light swept across the sky like a laser cannon, tearing a huge crack in the dark cloud formed by the bats.

The sunlight shines through the cracks, and the people illuminated by the light feel like they are bathed in the holy light of hope.

"Long live the Pope!"

People cried for joy and felt honored that the kingdom had such a great king.

Another huge beam of energy ripped the bats in the sky into pieces.

The cheers in the royal capital became louder and people's excitement reached its peak.

Everyone united in praising the king, which made it easier for the priests to cast divine spells against the bats.

As long as we continue to send a few more holy light shocks, the swarm of bats in the sky will be completely destroyed.

But are the vampires who created such a big scene really just coming out to scare people?

Another burst of holy light shot straight up into the sky, and a large number of bats made a sizzling sound and fell from the sky like raindrops.

People who were celebrating suddenly noticed something unusual.

Among the falling bats, there were also strange objects falling with them.

The falling object was clearly larger than the bat, and it was also stretching its limbs, changing its falling trajectory in mid-air.

Facing people's shocked gazes, an object that looked like a beast fell straight towards the goddess statue.

The next moment, the statue of the goddess was shrouded in smoke caused by the fall, and the citizens looking at it all had their hearts in their throats.

A magical wind blew away the dust that obscured the view, and the goddess statue was the first to reveal its head, followed by the monster.

Gaba!

As the beast fell, it bit the cardinal who was standing next to the king.

As soon as it showed its body, it bit down with its big mouth.

The splattering of blood, the screams of the dead, all these sudden changes were transmitted throughout the entire royal capital through the magic amplifying circle.

"Evil, devil! The devil is coming!"

The demon that descended from the sky awakened the human memory that had been buried for two hundred years.

It was these wolf-like and tiger-like demons that drove humans away from the southern continent.

Now, the devil has descended from the sky, bringing blood and fear to mankind again.

"The lingering demon, does it really have to exterminate us completely?!"

The people who were frightened by the devil cried and wailed. They welcomed the devil as they had welcomed the holy light before, but what they held in their hearts was not faith, but only fear.

The king, who was facing the devil head-on, did not expect to receive such a big gift from the vampire today.

The king wiped the blood that splattered on his face, forced himself to calm down, and then looked at the demon in front of him.

The demon has a head like a hungry wolf, and its sharp teeth gleam with metallic luster.

It has a metal shell all over its body, and its torso and joints are angular.

"Purgatory Wolf!"
