Chapter 247: Xingluo joins the Holy See of Light

After Xingluo came back, he immediately announced the expansion of the territory and the fact that it had become a marquisate. He also gave everyone a long vacation to conduct a post-war summary and gave generous rewards to the families of the mercenaries who died in the battle. Although this was not the main battlefield, the Abyss Legion had been blocked in the Earl's territory and had not reached the mercenary group's base at all.

The private army of Count Starfall finally came in handy and fought the first large-scale battle. Caroline had put a lot of effort into the defense of the territory. This victory also meant that the opponent was very capable. Irene had been promoted to a high-level magician at a young age and played an important role in this battle. When the mercenary group rushed back, the private armed forces of the Starfall nobles had already repelled those abyss creatures.

After Xingluo was promoted to the title of Lord, in order to reward Caroline, Xingluo decided to let her lead more private armed forces. Caroline wanted to refuse, but after Xingluo's persuasion, Caroline finally nodded. She was afraid that she could not manage it well. After all, she was just a high-level knight. The private armed forces of the earldom were okay, but for the marquis, at least the earth knights had to take on this important task. However, after Xingluo talked to her privately for a few words, Caroline blushed slightly, gritted her teeth, nodded, and finally agreed. This scene happened to be seen by Tiffany who hurried over.

Tiffany ran over and said in an unhappy tone: "What are you talking about?"

Caroline didn't dare to speak when she saw Tiffany coming over. After all, Tiffany was a veteran of the mercenary group and had a close relationship with Xingluo.

Xingluo saw Tiffany running over: "Are you okay, Tiffany? Thanks to you this time. I want to get to know the pastor better. Do you have time? Let's talk."

Tiffany was also stunned. She didn't expect Xingluo to want to know more about her. For a moment, she didn't know how to answer. Xingluo continued, "It just so happens that we have time now. Why don't we just start?"

"Here?" Tiffany said.

"Then where do you say it is?" Xingluo said.

Caroline, who had reacted at this time, had quietly left, and Tiffany blushed and said, "Xingluo, how do you want to get to know me better?"

"Of course you used the priest skills on me, and then I defended." Xingluo said with some confusion.

"Really? Is that what you mean?" Tiffany didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xingluo was even more confused and added, "Otherwise what's the point. You can use the same skill more times."

Tiffany was inexplicably angry and stomped her feet, releasing a large number of light magic spells. Xingluo was overwhelmed to deal with them, especially those involving magic spells, which were not simply light magic. This gave him a deeper understanding of amplification magic. Tiffany released many skills in one breath, her body trembling slightly, and sweat running down her neck.

Xingluo saw Tiffany's look and said, "If you are tired, take a rest. There is no need to be so anxious."

Tiffany got even angrier after hearing this, and released a lot of anger, which made Xingluo smile bitterly. For a moment, she didn't know whether she should continue talking.

When Xingluo released the Light Magic at Tiffany's side, he began to use all his mental power to decompose the magic. Nine star arrays appeared behind him. "It's still magic in essence, but mixed with some other things. These things can amplify the power of magic. It seems that these things have strengthened the magic."

Xingluo stared at Tiffany as he spoke, causing her face to turn red and she lowered her head, but she continued to silently release magic spells one after another. As Xingluo analyzed these magic spells, he thought, "Now that my magic has been blessed by the Dragon Language, its power has been greatly enhanced. If I can use some other methods to increase the power of my magic, I can even use the magic of a great magician to confront a mage."

"A method to increase the power of magic. After several years of research, I already have a model. Today I saw the difference between divine arts and light magic, as well as how to connect the original magic and the amplification array. Although I don't have the blessing of the God of Light, I can replace the part of the God of Light that amplifies magic with the magic amplification array that I have studied." Xingluo thought as he did it.

With Pastor Tiffany as a reference, his research this time was no longer just talk, but he started to practice directly. After studying the divine art, he used an amplification array instead, which directly made the released space blade more powerful. If he used dragon language to release magic, the power would be increased again.

Tiffany was slightly stunned when she saw the Space Blade which had become much more powerful. She didn't expect that the other party was so talented that he could amplify the power of the original magic just by reading the divine spell hundreds of times. Doesn't this mean that if the other party became a devout believer of the God of Light and used the amplification array, the power would be astonishingly great. Tiffany wanted to win over Xingluo and bring him into the arms of the God of Light even more.

In the square of Luoshen City, the cardinal is holding a large-scale light purification ceremony.

"Night fell, darkness covered the earth,"

"Power of light, awaken in me."

"Hand of light, please lend me your light,"

"Purify the darkness, burn the evil, and dispel the haze."

"The sacred fire ignites my soul,

"The light of the Holy Light shines in my palms."

At this time, the melodious sounds of the entire Luoshen City rang out, like the sound of nature, and a mysterious and solemn ceremony unfolded. With the purification of the Holy See of Light, the resentment of these dead people finally dissipated.

"Join the Church of Light, and you will feel the glory and warmth of the Lord." The cardinal did not forget to attract a group of people from Luoshen City to join the Church of Light, and he also sent a letter directly to Tiffany, asking her to make sure to bring Xingluo into the arms of the Church of Light.

Xingluo was also slightly hesitant. It was not that he did not want to join one of the largest forces on this continent, but he had too many secrets. What if he was discovered one day? However, he also understood the principle that the darkest place is under the lamp. How could he surpass the other party if he did not understand the other party? Only by truly understanding the magic of light can he truly surpass the other party.

Moreover, the rewards offered by the Church of Light were so tempting that sometimes Xingluo wondered whether it was the devil or the Church of Light who liked to tempt people. The Church of Light promised that if he could join this time, he would be granted a very high status and be responsible for managing the entire Church of Light forces in the Luoshen Empire, and be directly promoted to a cardinal, which was a very high status. After all, there were only four cardinals in the entire Church of Light who managed one of the four empires. Obviously, the Church of Light also saw Xingluo's potential and made a heavy bet directly. The appearance of the abyss made the Church of Light feel a sense of crisis. After all, if the abyss really descended on the main material plane, the first thing to be destroyed would be the Church of Light. Even the magic attributes of the two sides were destined to not coexist peacefully.

"Okay, since you are so sincere, it's fine for me to join you. But I have a request. I can join, but my subjects and mercenaries will not join. After all, many of them are foreign races. Elves believe in elven gods, dragons believe in dragon gods, and dwarves also have their own beliefs."

Tiffany was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, the Holy See of Light will not preach in the territory of the Marquisate of Starfall."

Xing Luo breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, his real thoughts were more than that, but since this reason was enough, he didn't say anything more.
