Hail the King Chapter 1195

Chapter 1195: The Corruption of the Holy Church (Part One)

The change of owners.h.i.+p of the City of Allianz had an unmeasurable impact on the situation of the continent.

In the Southern Region, the Holy Church and the Northern Region Empire faced off each other. Many people saw this as the first official battle between these two giant forces on the continent, and they expected this to last a long time. Especially with the appearance of the Human Emperor of the North and Deputy Pope Platini, the hype around this matter reached the climax.

It was rumored that Platini came to the Southern Region with many masters of the Holy Church and hidden cards to ambush and kill the Human Emperor of the North.

However, in the Battle at the City of Allianz, all the known masters of the Holy Church were killed, yet Platini didn't show himself.

Although rumors stated that Platini was dead, and they were pa.s.sed around in the City of Allianz, demoralizing the troops of the Holy Church, many people believed that Platini wasn't dead.

Also, since the Human Emperor of the North didn't appear, people wanted to believe that the battle between these two magnates wasn't over, and they didn't appear due to the fact that they were in a stalemate.

People were wondering about where this battlefield between the two was, and they waited for the result of the battle.

To some degree, the change of owners.h.i.+p of the City of Allianz wasn't that significant. The thing that would truly determine the fate of the Southern Region was the battle between the Human Emperor of the North and Deputy Pope Platini. A G.o.dly king could block millions upon millions of elite soldiers.

While most people were looking at the Southern Region, shocking changes occurred at the Strait of Naples, the border between the Northern Region and the Central Region as well as the battlefield between the Northern Regional Empire and the Holy Church.

No one expected this!

The little over a dozen ancient empires of the Eastern Region such as Sunderland and Everton suddenly switched sides! These empires' elite troops got to the Strait of Naples a day ago, and they declared that they would never make peace with the Northern Region Empire. However, they suddenly attacked the troops of the Holy Church, Barcelona, and Juventus.

This was clearly a trap set up by the Northern Region Empire.

The Holy Church and its two affiliated empires didn't antic.i.p.ate this at all. They were taken by surprise. Under the joint attack of the troops of the Northern Region Empire and the alliance troops of the Eastern Region, they lost millions of soldiers and had to back away for tens of thousands of kilometers.

In this battle, the G.o.dly Execution Knight Legion that was once invincible got crushed. The silver-haired and grey-eyed Legion Commander Atkinson got nailed into the ground by [Golden Lion] Lampard, dying in the battle.

Close to 10,000 core G.o.dly execution knights died in the battle, and more than 50,000 soldiers were captured. The legion was destroyed and obliterated.

At the same time, Head Commander Quagliarella of Juventus also died on the frontline.

Head Commander Pique of Barcelona was severely injured and fainted, and his subordinates risked their lives and dragged him out. It was unknown whether he was still alive or not.

After this battle, the Northern Region Empire took complete control of the Strait of Naples, and its reach extended into the Central Region. Then, it unleashed a series of raids, and the Holy Church, Barcelona, and Juventus couldn't defend at all.

In just four days, a large stretch of the land in the Central Region was lost to the Northern Region Empire, and more than half of the territory of the former Inter Milan Empire got claimed.

The Northern Region Empire won the battle beautifully.

The core to the victory was the sudden change of att.i.tude of the alliance troops of the Eastern Region.

Under the accusations of some people on the side of the Holy Church, the alliance troops of the Eastern Region revealed the truth to the continent.

Chapter 1195: The Corruption of the Holy Church (Part Two)

People like Johnson and Fellaini who the Holy Church said were killed by the Northern Region Empire suddenly appeared, and they clarified what had happened to them.

They stated that in reality, it was the Holy Church that tried to kill them, and the Northern Region Empire, which was the murderer in the Holy Church's story, was the savior that dragged them out of death.

With physical evidence and witnesses, all the mysteries were solved.

The entire continent was shocked.

No one expected that the Holy Church which promoted generosity, justice, and fairness was so despicable. It presented itself as the representative of the G.o.ds, yet it was so vicious.

The denouncement took the Holy Church by surprise.

For a moment, all forces on the continent were accusing the Holy Church of wrongdoings, and it was bearing a ton of pressure.

Under some forces' intentional and unintentional instigations, there were many cases where people smashed the churches and kicked out members of the Holy Church from the Eastern Region, the Western Region, and the Northern Region. The priests who were once welcomed by low-level civilians were hated, and the G.o.dly knights who were looked up to by many hot-blooded and pa.s.sionate young people got pushed off their pedestals.

In comparison, the fame and reputation of the Northern Region Empire and the Human Emperor of the North continued to rise.

Such a huge change completely messed up the power dynamics on the continent.

As time pa.s.sed by, the result of the battle between the Human Emperor of the North and Deputy Pope Platini, which many people looked forward to hearing, still didn't get officially announced. No one in public knew where these two magnates who could change the fate of the continent went. It seemed like they disappeared.

Surprising to most people, the Holy Church tried to clear its name and s.h.i.+ft the blame in the beginning, but it gradually gave up on that. Instead of aggressively counterattacking the Northern Region Empire, the Holy Church started to pull back and tighten its current influence and control of territories.

Soon, many rumors appeared. It was heard that internal conflicts broke out inside the Holy Church, and many shrines fought with each other to obtain more power. Fights were taking place in the Holy Church's headquarters, Sicily Island, and blood formed rivers.

These turns of events stunned numerous people.

No one expected that this giant force that dominated the continent for more than 1,000 years would decay at such a speed. Under the pressure of the Northern Region Empire, the new rising star, it started to collapse and fade away.

During this time, the Northern Region Empire gradually stopped all its military operations against the Holy Church.

The Southern Region of Azeroth became the focus of the Northern Region Empire.

With the flow of time, many troops of the Northern Region Empire moved into the Southern Region and battled the goblins, obtaining the advantage.

After organizing a few threatening counterattacks, the goblins fell into an unstoppable downward momentum. Also, for some unknown reason, the population of the goblins gradually stopped increasing.

When the war reached the three-month mark, the number of goblins started to decrease, and these murderous creatures' proud goblin-seattack stopped being effective.

With the additional help from the powerful empires in the Eastern Region, the situation in the Southern Region started to look good for humans. The goblins were defeated repeatedly, and they had to retreat and lose their territories.

In the end, tens of millions of goblins were pushed back onto the highland that was the southernmost point of the continent.
