Chapter 119 Don't Be Superstitious
Hulan Province, Ya'an City.

This medium-sized town is located near the border of Hulan Province, and further ahead is Jinmai City of Jinyan Province.

Not long after Grand Duke Fanxing ordered a campaign against the Shining Rebels, a large number of troops entered the town.

The impending storm made the once bustling town exceptionally deserted.

Walking on the street, there was not a single pedestrian in sight except for the soldiers hurrying by.

City Lord's Mansion, meeting room.

More than ten people sat opposite each other.

Sitting at the top was Count Nolay, Marquis Hulan's confidant and the commander of the vanguard army.

On the left are his generals, each of them holding the title of Viscount or Baron.

As a result, Baron Bodman, the ruler of Ya'an City, could only sit at the end of the table with a cautious and flattering smile on his face.

Sitting on the right side were a group of people wearing dark blue robes.

Without exception, their robes were embellished with brilliant star maps and a flame emblem painted on their chests.

Anyone who sees their attire can guess their identity - followers of the Spark Cult!

The leader was none other than Jensen Rosario, the chief priest of the Spark Cult.

His eyes slowly swept across the nobles opposite him, finally landing on Count Nolay.

"Count Nolay, when do you plan to send out your troops?"

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Earl Nolay's eyes at Jensen's calling him by his name, but considering the other party's identity, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and said with a fake smile:

"It will take a few days to mobilize the supplies. Priest Jensen, please be patient. Once the supplies arrive, we will dispatch troops immediately."

“That’s not necessary.”

Jensen frowned slightly.

"As far as I know, the Shining Territory seems to have placed its main force in Mengguang City. Judging from their plans, they are obviously preparing to concentrate their forces to capture the Soman Province and Zizhu Province first. There are not many troops stationed in Jinmai City. Although I don't understand military affairs, I also know that this is a good opportunity. If we send troops now, we can capture Jinmai City in a few days. Less supplies will not affect the overall situation."

"That's not what he said."

Before Count Nolay opened his mouth, a viscount took over the conversation with a serious look.

"The strength of the Flash Territory is obvious to all. Both the Golem Legion and the Black Rock Cavalry Regiment are the most powerful armies on the continent today. Although there are not many troops in Jinmai City, we are not sure whether these two legions are there. It is better to send spies to investigate more carefully, so that we can wait for the arrival of supplies."

"Yes, it's better to play it safe."

"After all, the opponent is that shining leader."

"War is not a game. You can't just rush in when you're hot-headed. You'll be doomed sooner or later."

A group of nobles echoed.

Seeing Yansen's dark face and silence, Count Nolai coughed and said slowly: "Master Yansen, we are just like you. We want to wipe out the rebels as soon as possible, but we still have to proceed step by step. You don't want us to end up like Marquis Jinyan, right?"

When mentioning Marquis Jinyan, Yansen's eyes flickered slightly.

It was during that war that the Shining Territory displayed its extremely powerful military might to all the nobles, which still makes people secretly shudder when thinking about it.

Taking a deep breath, Yansen calmed down his inner impatience and his face returned to calm.

"I am overstepping my authority. The war should be left to an experienced commander like Count Nolay. I have also heard of your great reputation on the battlefield."

Count Nolay smiled and waved his hand: "Master Jensen, you are too kind. That is all in the past."

After a pause, he smiled slightly and turned serious. "I'll have to trouble Master Yansen with the protection. You should have heard about the disastrous defeat of Count Storm. If Sunan is allowed to sneak in among us, the consequences will be disastrous."

The name Sunan seemed to have some kind of magic, causing the faces of the nobles present to become extremely solemn.

Those who are familiar with the past achievements of the Shining Leader are well aware of how important a role Sunan played in them and how mysterious and powerful his power is.

If Su Nan really gets close to them, they won't be sure they can resist him.

If the commanders were wiped out before the war began, there would be no need to fight.

"Everyone, don't worry."

The corners of Jensen's mouth curled up slightly, a confident smile on his face.

"I have arranged enough manpower. If Sunan really comes, I will make sure he never returns!"

Yansen's powerful words made the nobles feel much more relaxed.

Count Nolay glanced at the Spark Cult members sitting on his right, and felt relieved to see that each of them looked confident or calm.

"Then I'll leave it to Priest Jensen."

Before he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard outside.

The sound seemed distant, as if it came from far away, as deep and deafening as thunder.

"what sound?"

"What happened?"

"Where are the guards? Go check them out!"

Such a noise suddenly occurred at such a sensitive moment, and the nobles present were suddenly in an uproar.

"Quiet!"

Count Nolay shouted in a deep voice, quickly suppressing everyone's voices.

"Someone, go see what happened?"

"Yes, Lord Count."

Soon the guards took the order and left.

Not long after, the guard ran back, entered the hall, knelt on one knee, and reported:

"My Lord Earl, a large number of stone monsters suddenly appeared in the military camp, killing and injuring many soldiers. Lord Viscount Bair is leading his troops to encircle and suppress those monsters."

"In addition, a large number of similar stone monsters appeared at the city gate and are fighting with the defenders!"

Stone monster?

Everyone looked at each other.

Yan Sen reacted immediately and said in a deep voice:
"It's a stone golem, a puppet created by a wizard."

"Sunan is here!"

Everyone was shocked, and many nobles even stood up subconsciously.

"Officiant Jensen." Count Nolay looked at Jensen with a serious expression.

The latter shook his head slightly: "Count Nolai, my mission is to protect you, so I can't leave your side easily. There are only some stone golems around, and the army inside and outside the city is enough to deal with it."

"What if Sunan also takes action?" said an aristocrat.

Yan Sen smiled grimly: "Isn't that better? Can't we just mobilize a large army to surround and kill him? No matter how powerful he is, can he withstand thousands of troops?"

Everyone thought the same and said no more.

To be honest, they didn't want the people from the Spark Cult to leave their side.

It is better to have some ordinary soldiers killed or injured than to put yourself in danger.

Just then, an old man next to Yansen suddenly spoke.

"Someone sneaked in!"

The old man stretched out his palm, and a golden beetle was lying in the palm of his hand. At this time, the beetle's wings were flapping rapidly, making a buzzing sound.

Hearing this, Yansen opened the book in his hand without hesitation, placed his palm lightly on the pages, and muttered something.

The next second, an invisible wave suddenly spread out, sweeping through everyone in the hall without hindrance, but it seemed to hit something when passing through the door, and it was distorted. It was as if an invisible curtain was suddenly lifted, and a figure appeared out of thin air at the door of the hall.

"Sunan!"

"It's really you!"

After seeing the figure of the person coming clearly, Yansen narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

This person is Su Nan? !
Everyone stared at the young man at the door with wide eyes, their expressions full of surprise and confusion.

Although they had heard that Sunan was the younger brother of the Marquis of Shining and was only in his twenties, everyone still felt dazed when they saw his extremely young face with their own eyes.

The extremely mysterious and powerful wizard in the legend turned out to be such a gentle-looking young man!

Without paying attention to the gazes of the crowd, Sunan looked with interest at the book in Yansen's hand and the golden beetle in the old man's palm.

"Is this what Red Heart said was the artifact in the hands of the Spark Cult?"

A book that can break the invisibility effect on a large scale.

A beetle that can sense the fluctuations of soul breath or energy particles.

"But its effect is far inferior to that of a true divine weapon. It is even inferior to a holy weapon of a lower level. It can only be considered a holy object at best."

Artifacts are objects forged by the hands of gods themselves.

Sacred vessels are objects made by believers and endowed with divine grace by the gods.

Holy objects are made by believers and placed in front of statues of gods. Through years of day and night prayers by believers, they gradually become imbued with a hint of divine grace.

There is a huge difference in power between items of different levels.

If the two believers in front of him were holding real artifacts, Sunan would definitely turn around and leave without saying a word.

If it is a holy weapon, then he should also consider whether to retreat.

But if it is just a holy object, then with many trump cards in hand, we can just fight first and see.

Furthermore, now that the gods have disappeared, it remains to be seen whether the sacred objects of the Xinghuo Cult are genuine.

"Since you are here today, don't even think about leaving."

Seeing that Sunan seemed to be ignoring him, Yansen was secretly annoyed and winked at his companion.

A group of Spark Cult members drew their weapons, spread out in a semicircle and surrounded Sunan.

Without exception, these people all had a dazzling glow of fighting spirit.

In addition, including Jensen, there are four other people with elemental power surging in their bodies.

Seeing this, Su Nan couldn't help but smile playfully.

"Four legendary knights and twelve great knights, it's quite a big event."

Seeing Su Nan's expression, Yan Sen frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.

They studied Sunan's past record and made detailed calculations of his strength before finally sending out this lineup.

Four legendary knights, twelve great knights and the holy relics in their hands are more than enough to deal with a third-level wizard apprentice.

Thinking of this, Yansen no longer hesitated and acted decisively.

In an instant, an invisible wave spread out, sweeping across the entire hall in an instant.

Su Nan only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he came to his senses, he found himself in a vast starry sky.

There are countless stars scattered all around, and a brilliant Milky Way stretches across the universe above the head, which is magnificent and incomparable.

"Half-dimensional space?"

Su Nan raised his brows and tried to sense something, but found that he had completely lost contact with the hidden dragon outside.

This situation will only occur when the master and the pet are in different planes or dimensions.

"kill him!"

Following a low shout from Jensen, a group of Spark Cultists rushed over, waving their swords.

Sunan did not dodge or evade, but released the magic missile that he had prepared long ago.

But what surprised him was that the seven magic missiles actually passed through the bodies of the Spark Cultists, as if these people's bodies did not exist in this space.

But then, their weapons all hit Sunan, but were blocked by the invisible force field around him.

"It's useless. This is the power bestowed upon believers by the great Star God!"

"You can't hurt us here!"

Yansen sneered, his face full of confidence.

Wizards are no different.

You will only be beaten in front of the holy objects!
".It's just a temporary virtualization, it's so weird."

Su Nan shook his head speechlessly.

Is he the kind of wizard apprentice who has never seen the world?

The so-called virtualization is similar to the hidden dragon's ability to convert between reality and virtuality, which transforms the body and all items on the body into a virtual state, making it immune to all physical attacks.

But in the virtual state, it cannot attack the enemy.

However, the group of Spark Cultists in front of him were able to attack him, which meant that they were not continuously incarnated. They just transformed their bodies into virtual bodies at the moment of being attacked, thus avoiding the attack.

That is temporary virtualization.

Su Nan guessed that this should be an ability that comes with this semi-dimensional space.

In addition, he could clearly feel that his physical and mental strength were slowly draining away. Apparently, this semi-dimensional space also had the effect of absorbing the enemy's energy.

But that's it.

If it were an ordinary person, they might be shocked and panicked by the methods of the Spark Cult.

But in Sunan's opinion, it was just child's play.

In the wizarding world, there are many abilities that are stranger and more difficult to deal with than this.

Real virtualization is still a bit tricky, but temporary virtualization is much easier to deal with.

Su Nan sneered, and a silver light suddenly flashed in front of his chest. The next moment, countless silver metal liquids flew out of his body, flying around him, and quickly condensed into sharp cones that shone with cold light.

After a slight pause, densely packed spikes suddenly shot out!

In an instant, the area within a hundred meters in radius, centered on Sunan, was shrouded in a violent metal storm!

Chi Chi Chi!
The piercing sound of explosions breaking through the air continued to ring in the ears!
Almost at the moment when the silver light struck, the Spark Cultists present sensed something was wrong and entered the virtual state without hesitation.

But just as Sunan guessed, their virtuality could not last long.

After just four or five seconds, the group had to transform back into physical form.

In an instant, the dull sounds of the sharp blade cutting through flesh and blood could be heard one after another.

The twelve Spark Cultists at the level of Grand Knights didn't even have time to utter a scream before they were instantly shredded into a bloody mist by the metal storm, leaving no trace of their bodies!

Only four legendary knights are still struggling to hold on.

All four of them were shrouded in a layer of faint starlight.

It is precisely relying on this layer of starlight that they can hold on.

Otherwise, with the power of the Level 2 Magic Pattern Core, the four of them would have followed in the footsteps of their companions long ago.

Yansen looked at Sunan with horror. The confidence he had shown on his face was gone, replaced by shock and disbelief.
