Outside Wushan Town, a powerful cavalry squadron is stationed here.

Logically speaking, it is very "rude" to allow an ace cavalry squadron to be stationed outside such a backward town for a long time, and not even allow them to enter the town.

But this order comes from Lin Lei, the "first contemporary magic genius in Magnolia Continent" who the Holy See of Light is trying to recruit, so it is naturally reasonable.

Even though this order made some knights think that Lin Lei was a bit arrogant when he got his ambitions, it is normal for the continent's number one magic genius to be arrogant.

In the Baruch family mansion in Wushan Town, Hogg is carving carefully.

When sculpted, in addition to possessing amazing strength, speed and durability, Hogg is more like a pure artist than a warrior.

Giving stone sculptures the spirituality of life.

Lin Lei was also watching carefully, feeling the rhythm of life as his father carved stone sculptures, which also touched him.

Lin Lei, who has not experienced that trial, although his background is deeper, is still a little bit behind the master level in stone carving skills.

The content of Hogg’s sculptures is actually very simple.

An extremely holy angel carrying two pairs of wings of light was nailed to a stone pillar with a spear, and blood flowed from the wound.

The one who attacked the angel was an ordinary-looking warrior, and a tattered iron sword pierced the angel's chest.

The structure of the entire stone sculpture is not said to be very ordinary, but it can only be said to be nothing new.

But this stone sculpture as a whole gives people a very strong will impact, which is a spiritual manifestation full of rebellion and resistance.

Lin Lei somewhat understood that his old father not only planned to "teach a lesson" to the Holy See of Light, but also planned to blackmail the Holy See of Light.

This made him feel a little funny.

More than half a month passed, and the Holy See of Light also sent people several times to urge Lin Lei to return to the Holy City to serve.

Lin Lei postponed it because he was "accompanying his father in carving". Even for this reason, the captain of the ace squadron of the Holy See of Light had some objections.

He even "persuaded" Hogg alone not to delay Linley.

Then, Hogg politely invited him out.

Finally, when the stone sculpture "Angel Falls" was almost completed, the patience of the Holy See of Light was almost worn out.

But the three "big shots" came together.

"Gustav", the leader of the Radiant Knights, one of the eight ace knights.

Cardinal "Gilmer";

There is also an ascetic "Xiu" who is dressed in rags but no one dares to look down upon.

Regarding their identities, Lin Lei was very respectful on the surface.

Of course, they are also very friendly to Lin Lei...with the exception of the ascetic "Xiu", who hardly speaks and always has a cold face.

Although they recruited Lin Lei back to Fenlai City to take up a post in a somewhat coercive manner, they actually used the reason to visit "Master Stone Sculptor" Hogg.

It is of course the right thing for a big figure from the Holy See of Light to visit the stone carving master of the Holy Alliance

Genius is just genius.

Before he formally joined various forces and held an official position, Lin Lei's social status was actually not as good as that of a master stone carver like Hogg.

Of course, this is a "hidden rule on the surface". In reality, all parties obviously pay more attention to geniuses like Lin Lei.

And Hogg... is too lazy to make concessions with this group of people.

Outside the room, three powerful figures from the Holy See of Light were waiting slowly.

Although they couldn't even see "Master Hogg" in person, which made them very unhappy, Lin Lei said that his father was in the final stage of a statue, and if it was completed, it would probably be a grandmaster-level statue.

This reason is very powerful, and the three of them can only wait patiently, and even have some expectations.

In the room where Hogg used to carve, under the influence of the invisible Qi machine, not a single sound could be heard.

A stone sculpture, depicting a life-and-death struggle between angels and humans, is placed in the center of the room. However, the stone sculpture has been completed, and there is even dust on the surface of the stone sculpture. It has obviously been completed for a long time.

In the room, Hogg did not give any advice on Lin Lei's stone carving skills, but instead discussed the next plan.

"Haha, it seems that the information of the Light Holy See is not as powerful as I thought. The Dark Holy See should have guessed that I killed their fallen angels in the Holy Realm, but the Light Holy See has no idea at all...otherwise it would be given to them.

It has been nearly a month, but not even one from the Holy Land has been sent."

"Father, why don't we just leave." Lin Lei was still a little worried, "With your strength, the three of them can't stop us."

"The three of them can't stop them, but if I read it correctly, the red archbishop should have a way to contact the Temple of Light at any time... I will take you away, and the people from the Holy See of Light will kill you in the next moment."

"If you and I were not here, the people here in Wushan Town would be in trouble." Hogg said with a helpless tone.

There are also many residents in Wushan Town, thousands of them. Hogg has no choice and no reason to let them follow him to the O'Brien Empire.

But the Baruch family has been the lords of Wushan Town for so many years, and they are all Hogg's subjects. How can the friendship be so easily torn apart?

Hogg was not sure whether the Holy See of Light would "vent its anger" on these townspeople if he left.

Hogg never dared to have any kind of expectations for the moral standards of religious people - especially if they really have gods above them.

The more reliable method he can think of is deterrence.

Fight with the Holy See of the Holy See of Light, and even kill the existence of the Holy See, creating a deterrent.

If the Holy See of Light treats him as a weak party, it may be unscrupulous.

But if the Holy See of Light knew that Hogg was not someone to be trifled with, would they still take revenge on the residents of Wushan Town?

If so, Hogg wouldn't mind destroying hundreds of churches as equivalent revenge.

"But father, if there is a sanctuary-level battle breaking out here in Wushan Town - then we Wushan Town may not be able to bear it." Lin Lei checked and filled in the gaps.

His words were silent, but the meaning was clear.

A war at the sanctuary level can be called a natural disaster for a small town.

"Don't worry, I won't let them enter Wushan Town." Hogg pondered for a while, "In this way, I will first burst out the aura of the holy realm, and then take you to the other side of Wushan. Haha, when you were a child, you wished

Uncle Man also told you that the ultimate warrior can destroy Wushan in the blink of an eye, but in fact the holy warrior cannot do it."

"At least Wushan can withstand the aftermath of the move and reduce the impact."

Linley seemed to understand but not quite.

"Lin Lei, what level have you reached in warrior training now? I mean the level of moves?"

"Well, I have recently figured out the concept of 'lifting a weight as if it were light', but I still don't understand the realm of 'inciting the power of heaven and earth'." Lin Lei didn't know what his father meant by suddenly asking this.

"Having realized that 'heavy weights are easy', you should be able to protect yourself after transformation. When the time comes, you should also take a closer look at the battles at the sanctuary level. This will be very useful for your cultivation."

"Okay, Father!"

After a while, an astonishing and majestic momentum like a mountain and an ocean erupted.

Ordinary town residents may not understand it yet, but the faces of the three "guests" sitting in the Baruch family mansion changed drastically.

"This is the breath of the sanctuary."

The red archbishop was horrified, but he immediately tore up a scroll and sent a message to the Temple of Light.

The message is very short, no more than a few words.
Chapter completed!
