Chapter 543: Iron-Boned and Resolute

Longshan City, a city located on the border of the Magic Republic. Although remote, it was not backward; on the contrary, it was once one of the largest cities in the Magic Republic.

Because the surrounding mineral energy reserves were excellent, it was once the industrial city of the Magic Republic and also had the reputation of being the City of Wealth.

Even in the current apocalyptic environment, this powerful city had not been destroyed by Calamity Beasts, and it had become an apocalyptic fortress city similar to the capital, Pan Duola.

Even thanks to the powerful and complete industrial foundation in the city, Longshan City had lived even more comfortably than Pan Duola City in recent years. There were incomparably towering high city walls rising from the earth. These city walls, over a hundred meters high and dozens of meters thick, made people feel full of security just looking at them, and the various basic facilities in the city were very perfect, much better than the simple temporary resettlement housing like tombstones in the Pan Duola satellite city.

It was a pity that this was the apocalypse after all, and it was impossible to let you live comfortably and moistly forever. The prosperity of this fortress city eventually attracted a great enemy to the door.

"Lord Meredith, do we really have hope of winning next?"

"Yeah, yeah, this Mountain-Carrying Dragon Turtle is really ridiculously large. The weapons of the mortals in the city really can't cause any effective damage to it."

"Yeah, my lord, I think we should ask for help."

"It's a bit late to ask for help now. Why don't we take people and retreat?"

On the towering city walls of Longshan City, several Angel Witches with red wings on their backs were using magic to watch the huge Calamity Beast slowly but firmly advancing toward them. Then, several four-winged Angel Witches withdrew their gazes and advised the eight-winged Angel Witch who was the leader.

But Meredith's face was a bit gloomy.

"Shut up, have you forgotten the glory of the Saint Blood Bearers we carry? Do you think you are worthy of the red wings behind you, worthy of the God King's expectations?"

She scolded the several subordinate sisters around her with a dark face.

However...

"Forget it, Meredith. You're still indulging in your house-playing setting at this time. We've been good sisters for many years. It's fine to play with you at ordinary times, but I hope you can be normal in such a big matter."

"And red wings, red wings are the status symbol of the Pope faction's direct line. Have you forgotten that our red wings are just dyed?"

"Alright, Little Mei, I know you can't lose face to ask the Prime Minister for help, but this Calamity Beast is not a matter of our face. Once Longshan City falls, the billions of mortals in this city will not be able to escape. At that time, the God King will truly punish us."

The several Angel Witches who had been very respectful to Meredith before, calling her "my lord" one by one, suddenly turned against her. Someone even directly reached out and plucked a feather from the six-winged angel lady's wing, which made the president of the Saint Blood Nun Society subconsciously wince in pain.

However, looking at the feather in the little sister's hand that was red on the surface but faintly white at the root, she fell silent.

Red wings were a status symbol within the God King Sect because the God King's wings were twelve red wings that looked like burning flames.

But ordinary Angel Witches used normal angels as evolution templates, so they naturally possessed the most common white wings of angels. Only the Pope, who was the Academy Principal, or the former Saintess Filia, who had the God King's blood flowing in her body, could naturally possess red wings like flames.

Fortunately, the authority of the God King Sect had been declining day by day in recent years and was no longer as covering the sky with one hand as before. Otherwise, their behavior of dyeing their wings red would have been enough for the sect's Heresy Tribunal to come to their door and invite them to drink tea.

But even so, Meredith and the others' approach was still somewhat unorthodox in the eyes of traditional Angel Witches. People looked at them as if they saw non-mainstream bad little girls.

Of course, Meredith had never cared much about other people's views. She just felt that she was very cool, and she wasn't alone. She had always had such a group of good sisters around her willing to accompany her in making trouble. Meredith had always kept this in mind.

But obviously, this time the sisters did not support her as they did in the past.

After all, the Saint Blood Nun Society could become one of the top ten societies in the academy, even if it was at the bottom, it still couldn't be underestimated. This group of bad Angel Witches didn't rely on the family's relationship; their current ranking was all fought out by the sisters with their fists and feet.

Therefore, they were naturally not brainless fools. Even if Meredith, the leader, was sometimes easy to get carried away, other sisters would find ways to persuade her not to be impulsive.

And now, Meredith's external anti-impulse system obviously played a role again.

Okay, actually she also knew that what the sisters said was right. That Mountain-Carrying Dragon Turtle was far from what the few of them could stop. It was a rational decision to ask for help or retreat now, but this was a task given to me by the God King. I should complete it well no matter what.

After the president's meeting that day, after being severely humiliated by the eldest lady as a chicken to scare the monkeys, Meredith was annoyed, but she didn't go to take humiliation again, and she had more important things to do, which was to find the God King and then work for her.

As a fanatic of the God King, being able to see her own god with her own eyes and then work for her was Meredith's lifelong pursuit. However, she herself had little hope of realizing this pursuit. After all, the God King hadn't appeared for a long time. Even the peak or even the sages wanted to see the God King, which wasn't easy, let alone a witch student like her who hadn't graduated yet.

But this Witch Night gave her a chance. When she learned that the background of this Witch Night was the God King's Rise War, her ecstasy was simply beyond words.

If you asked what was more joyful than a fanatic having a chance to see the god she served, it was undoubtedly that she had the opportunity to witness the rise of her own god.

At that time, Meredith had already thought of the script. She would find the weak God King and accompany her as a loyal guard until the end of this Witch Night.

However, the gap between reality and her ideal was too great. She didn't even have the qualifications to participate in the first act of the Witch Night, so naturally, she didn't have the opportunity to get to know the God King in her humble beginnings.

And what made her even more crazy was that her script seemed to have been taken away by someone else. Other witches easily did things she couldn't do, and even some things she didn't dare to think about, that witch also did.

"Damn eldest lady, how did she become the God King's sister? How dare she?"

Whenever she thought of this, Meredith was envious and jealous to the point of being unrecognizable. The limit of her imagination was just to be a guard for the God King. As for further plans, she didn't dare to think about it, for fear of blaspheming the supreme god in her heart.

But, still that sentence, how dare the eldest lady? What kind of ability does she have to claim to be the God King's sister? She doesn't even look at whether she is worthy.

What is her status? What is the God King's status? She is not afraid of being punished by heaven for such an overstepping act.

And what made Meredith even more painful was that when she finally saw the God King in the inconspicuous little church in Pan Duola City after much difficulty, at first the God King was very polite and friendly to her.

But when she very straightforwardly upheld the principle that Saint Blood Nuns have no secrets, ignored the eldest lady's final warning to her, and directly said that the hateful eldest lady actually claimed to be the God King's sister, everything changed.

"Dorothy is my sister, this is a fact whether it is now, in the past, or in the future. Do you have any opinions on this? Or are you teaching me how to do things?"

The God King, who was originally as friendly as a shepherd village girl seen everywhere, frowned slightly. Her temperament also changed from a village girl to a majestic, powerful, and domineering incarnation of heaven.

Under that pressure like the collapse of heaven, Meredith opened her mouth wide but couldn't say a word.

At this moment, she finally understood what a true god was. In the past, she had wishfully thought that as long as she was pious to the God King, she would eventually be able to move the god, but now she knew.

The Lord doesn't care. Her faith and even her existence are irrelevant to the God King.

She is nothing.

And then, and then she was casually sent by the God King to this Longshan City on the border of the Republic, directly out of sight and out of mind.

Hmm, good news, her dream came true. She did see the God King and got the opportunity to work for the God King.

And the bad news, the god is not as beautiful as she imagined. Even now, whenever she thinks of the terrifying pressure the God King put on her when she frowned, she still trembles uncontrollably.

However, it's not a trembling of fear, but a trembling of excitement.

That feeling is really great, this is right. My pattern was small before. If a god as great as the God King still needs to care about other people's faith, that would be wrong. A true god should be so casual, so willful. Human nature should not be used to speculate on divinity.

Meredith thought with a flushed face.

Hmm, anyway, her faith in the God King became more pious.

And guarding Longshan City is also a task given to her by the God King. She wants to complete this task no matter what. She will not let the God King down a second time, even if she has to bow to that hateful eldest lady for this.

*Tsk*, damn it.

Thinking of the eldest lady who is now the Prime Minister of the Republic and can work with the God King every day, Meredith curled her lips.

Hmph, it's just a dream. I'm not envious or jealous at all.

"Fine, fine, asking for help is asking for help, that's fine. And you guys don't underestimate me too much. I'll go ask for help myself, I don't need you to pass it on."

Looking at these good sisters who opposed her going her own way, Meredith spat unhappily.

Hmph, don't think I don't know what you guys are thinking. I've seen the portraits and books of the eldest lady you secretly hid in your rooms.

Damn it, a group of plastic sisters who forget friends for beauty.

Looking at these sisters who grew up together, whose bodies were by her side but whose hearts followed the eldest lady, Meredith felt even more stifled.

But when she turned her head to look at the lights of thousands of homes in this huge city behind her, she finally sighed, and then took out her magic net terminal.

She was a young person after all. Even if she was born in a cold-blooded place like the Angel Kingdom, she had been rebellious since she was a child, and her blood was not yet cold. She didn't want to see this city she had guarded for many days turn into ruins.

Although it's a bit shy to say so, she actually quite likes this city and the people in the city.

However, when Meredith finally made up her mind and was about to dial a number, the terminal in her hand rang first.

*Uh*...

Meredith, who was startled, scrambled to catch the terminal and then looked at the caller ID.

"Yin Weite? What is this traitor looking for me for?"

The bad angel lady was a bit puzzled. She had no intersection with this Vice President in the past, but after hesitating again and again, she still connected the call.

Thus, a small projection popped up on the small terminal, showing the scene of thirteen inquisitorial witches sitting around the campfire on the opposite side.

*Uh*, isn't this the thirteen inquisitors who are very popular in the magic net live broadcast during this time?

Seeing this scene, Meredith was a bit surprised, but then she suddenly reacted.

Wait, that is to say, this guy Yin Weite is one of the thirteen inquisitors?

Just as she thought of this, a force seemed to want to reverse her cognition and make her forget this fact, but Meredith frowned.

"Crawl, don't think about tampering with my consciousness."

The power of pious faith formed a protection in her mind, resisting the tampering of that force.

But this also made the inquisitor wearing a clown mask sitting by the campfire in the projection look up and look at her side with some surprise.

And as soon as she saw this clown mask, Meredith felt a bit panicked for no reason.

From the difference in the style of the battle robes between this inquisitor and others, she recognized that this was a Grand Inquisitor, and the Grand Inquisitor who took people to ransack the God King Cathedral not long ago was this person.

But the bad angel had always been tough. If she lost, she wouldn't lose her stance. If she wasn't convinced, she wasn't convinced. Who cares who you are?

"What are you looking at?"

She asked with her head held high.

"Looking at you, so what..."

Dorothy replied subconsciously, but she coughed twice and then changed her words.

"*Cough cough*... I mean we are still missing the last hunting target, and the Mountain-Carrying Dragon Turtle is a good choice, so do you want a helper?"

"Yes."

Meredith's answer was also short and powerful.

... The bad dyed-wing angel is iron-boned and resolute... ===== CHAPTER 544 =====
