Chapter 217: The Mysterious Necromancer

When the Orthodox Church’s Holy Knights left, countless people were chasing at the back of them along the city walls of Sapphire City.

They only wanted to catch one more glimpse of those holy and brave Holy Knights.

“What a pity! They left right after they arrived.”

“The legendary Pontiff Monn is indeed as handsome, elegant, noble, and holy as the legends in the Imperial City. It’s just a pity that I haven’t had a good look at the Pontiff Monn!”

“And Her Highness the Saintess and those Holy Knights. They are really as yearning as for the Orthodox Church!”

“I just want to take another look at that Pontiff Monn!”

“I heard that even the royal princess of the kingdom couldn’t resist the charisma of Pontiff Monn. He’s really too handsome! Pontiff Monn who leads tens of thousands of Holy Knights is simply too noble to look straight at!”

“I wonder when Pontiff Monn will come to our Sapphire City again. I only hope that he won’t leave in a hurry the next time!”

“Really looking forward to it!”

Castellan Komuk and the others looked at the excited people who were chasing after the Holy Knights, they had black look on their faces.

“Even when the Golden Griffin Army of the kingdom came, I’ve never seen them so excited!”

“They are all low-level civilians. I can forgive them.”

“There are many nobles among them! Viscount Luke, I saw your son running, crying, and chasing after those holy and noble Holy Knights just now.”

Viscount Luke, “…”

“I’ll break his legs when we get back!”

“That’s a great idea!”

“…”

Castellan Komuk asked the president of Mercenary Union beside him, “President Zangger, where do you think Pontiff Monn is planning to take his Holy Knights to?”

The president replied, “There aren’t any cities in our kingdom in that direction. There are only some small towns and the territories of the nobles.”

Castellan Komuk said, “I believe that Pontiff Monn of the Orthodox Church will not harm our Sapphire City.”

“Then…”

The president of the Mercenary Union said, “There is only one possibility. They will go to the Ash Mountain Range, the burial place of that ghost of the giant dragon!”

Castellan Komuk was puzzled. “What is His Holiness Pontiff Monn doing there? It seems that there isn’t anything in the Ash Mountain Range that is worth the fight of the Orthodox Church.”

The president of the Mage Union by the side suddenly smiled.

“I think Miss Vivian of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce should know His Holiness’s purpose.”

Suddenly, everyone turned their eyes to Vivian who did not follow the pontiff to the Ash Mountain Range.

Vivian said calmly, “Unfortunately, I don’t know. Although I have had contact with Pontiff Monn of the Orthodox Church.”

With that, she turned around and left with the people of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce.

Such a move was obviously not the etiquette of the nobles, and it was also disrespectful to the bigwigs present.

However, Castellan Komuk and the others were not angry.

Instead, they smiled bitterly.

It could not be helped. After all, Miss Vivian’s father was a marquis with outstanding military achievements.

Castellan Komuk, who had the highest rank, was only a count. He had to bow respectfully when he saw the Marquis of Bauhinia.

Just as they were about to return to the city…

On the other side…

Monn was leading his Holy Knight Army towards the Ash Mountain Range.

Along the way, they passed by many small towns and the territories of the nobles.

However, no force dared to attack the Orthodox Church.

After all, everyone could clearly see the flag that was raised high in the front.

It was the divine religion that the Kingdom of Kate believed in.

It was the symbol of the Orthodox Church.

Just this flag alone was enough to frighten the gangster, thieves and rascals.

On the contrary, many humans appeared around them.

They looked at the Holy Knights from afar with shocked and amazed gazes.

Some even closed their eyes and made a praying gesture.

Their faces were pure and holy.

Monn and Ace were walking in front.

They accepted these gazes very calmly.

Even the Holy Knights didn’t feel uncomfortable at all.

In the entire continent…

As long as the Orthodox Church appeared…

This kind of scene would inevitably appear.

So even if they felt uncomfortable…

After getting used to it, they would feel nothing.

As they had experienced this scene too frequent and they had to get used to it.

The Ash Mountain Range was a mountain range which continuously spanned nearly 100 kilometers.

One side was the territory of the Kingdom of Kate Kingdom, which was one of the three great kingdoms of mankind.

After passing through the Ash Mountain Range, further away was the savanna, which was ruled by the orcs.

Of course, with the area of the Ash Mountain Range, it was still far from crossing the border of the Kingdom of Kate.

It could only be said that the Ash Mountain Range was right between the Kingdom of Kate and the orcs.

Many years ago, the Ash Mountain Range was still the territory of the orcs.

Many orc tribes settled here.

Whenever there was a bumper harvest, the orcs of the Ash Mountain Range would form various cavalry and leave the Ash Mountain Range to plunder the food of the human world.

This was how the ferocious beast cavalry was born.

Until one day…

An adult dragon appeared here and burned everything in the Ash Mountain Range with blazing dragon flames. Whether it was the trees or the beast tribes in the mountains, they were all turned into ashes overnight.

The Beast Royal Court was very angry.

They sent a few golden behemoths to the Ash Mountain Range and finally killed the dragon.

However, from that moment onwards…

The Ash Mountain Range also fell silent.

Very few beasts appeared here.

Part of the reason was the existence of the dragon’s breath, which caused the Ash Mountain Range to become barren, with bare rocks everywhere.

Without the dense forest blocking them, the Golden Griffin Knights from the Kingdom of Kate could easily kill them.

Another reason was that after the death of the giant dragon, the dragon’s soul didn’t return to the arms of the Dragon God. Instead, due to resentment, it became the immortal ghost of the giant dragon.

The ghost of the giant dragon shuttled through every corner of the Ash mountain Range.

This had made neither the beast clan nor the human mercenaries dare to set foot here easily.

But at this time…

Two people appeared in the Ash Mountain Range.

Their bodies were hidden under the black robes, and their faces couldn’t be seen clearly.

But it could be told from their figures.

One of them was an old man, and the other was a petite woman.

In the old man’s hand, he was holding a bone-made magic staff, and his entire body was emitting the aura of a dead spirit.

His steps were staggering, as if he was about to die.

The woman followed the old man’s steps and was carefully supporting his arms.
