Aphex's expression was solemn, "This is very much in line with the Church's methods. On the surface, these guys love the people, but they often do such things secretly."
"During this period of time, hide in the military camp. I don't believe that God's Punishment Squad would dare to attack the Royal Knights."
He took this matter very seriously, and he had to. After all, the Holy Church was very powerful in the entire kingdom, and it seriously affected the normal operation of the kingdom.
However, the Holy Church had always been very loyal to the king, at least on the surface.
As a King, there are some things that His Majesty can't do personally, so he can only let the Royal Knights suppress them.
This was also the reason why Aphex dared to make a move.
"Thank you."
Chen Deng cupped his hands in gratitude.
Aphex left in a hurry. He still had a lot of important things to deal with. During this period of time, thanks to the Falcon's Eye potion, their tracking work had made great progress.
Although he didn't know the exact location of the Demon King's Army.
However, the general hiding spot was almost obvious.
After Aphex left, Chen Deng immediately stood up. The mana in his body surged, and a human figure gradually appeared on his bed. There was even snoring.
"Energy Puppet, completed."
It was a small trick. Unless one personally touched it, one would not be able to discover its flaws.
He set up another circle of runes around the tent.
If someone came in, he would sense it immediately.
"Shadow completed, conceal."
After that, he hid in the darkness and left the Royal Knights.
This group of God's Punishment Squad actually dared to ambush him. How could Chen Deng tolerate it with his personality?
A gentleman's revenge is never done overnight.
...
In Rose City, the God's Punishment Squad was very surprised after their sneak attack failed, "This guy is really vigilant. He's even surrounded by potions near his residence."
"The Sage's request must be completed. The Church needs a Sage Healer."
As they continued to track the traces Chen Deng left behind, they soon discovered Chen Deng had actually escaped into the Royal Knights.
The few members of God's Punishment Squad frowned. They had always been at odds with the Royal Knights and had secretly competed with them countless times.
Now, they actually encountered these guys again. They were really difficult to deal with.
Just as they were thinking about how to deal with Chen Deng…
A surge of dark magic suddenly appeared and then disappeared in an instant.
However, the God's Punishment Squad sensed it.
The few of them looked at each other, their faces solemn, "Rose City actually has such powerful dark magic."
They quickly headed toward the place where the dark magic was emitted.
Although they were not on good terms with the Royal Knights, they only had one attitude towards the Demon King Army. They would kill all of them without mercy.
The God's Punishment Squad quickly entered the underground warehouse.
This was the source of the dark magic.
"Dark Puppet? It's the armor of the city guards. I heard that a small team of city guards went missing for no reason. It seems that they were trained into dark puppets by someone else."
"God above, please let these brave warriors rest in peace, God's Light of Punishment."
A thick holy light quickly spread throughout the entire basement.
The dark puppet let out a tragic wail.
"Ah, so painful." "Kill me and set me free!" "I won't dare to do it again. Please spare us!"
A series of mournful wails entered the ears of God's Punishment Squad.
Within the dense holy light, dark puppets rushed out one after another. Their bodies were extremely smelly, emitting a dense corpse stench.
They carried an extremely dense hatred as they headed toward God's Punishment Squad.
Why not give them a quick death? Why torture them?
The faces of God's Punishment Squad turned extremely ugly. They were horrified to discover these dark puppets were all extraordinarily powerful and were almost immune to holy light.
This at least meant one thing, and that was that the person who refined these dark puppets had a much higher level of dark magic than them.
This also meant that this place might be extremely dangerous, and there might even be an unimaginable expert hidden in the dark.
"What should we do? Let's retreat first! The level of power these puppet possess is far too high. They are very difficult to kill."
"I'm afraid you can't retreat. Look around."
Behind them, Chen Deng slowly walked out. He had already set up a dark fog here, making it difficult for ordinary people to walk out.
"You're Nicholas Ben. You're from the Demon King's Army."
The God's Punishment Squad was extremely shocked. They had discovered a shocking fact.
Chen Deng smiled and greeted them, "Long time no see, everyone."
"I forgot to greet you guys earlier. I'm the black-haired Chen Deng, the new Demon King. Greetings."
The God's Punishment Squad was in despair. If it was just the Demon King Army, they would still have a chance of survival. However, now that they had encountered a new Demon King, they were completely finished.
An hour later, the city guards surrounded the underground warehouse.
"Who are you? Why did you barge into the underground treasury of Rose City?"
A few members of God's Punishment Squad walked out and threw a token over, "Humph, you don't even recognize us? This place has the aura of dark magic. Have you city guards always been so useless? The Demon King Army was hiding here, but they couldn't even find it."
The city guard's face changed, and they immediately smiled, "Oh my, it's the God's Punishment Squad of the Holy Church. I'm sorry."
"Hurry up and make way for the lords."
Their Castellan had always been close to the Holy Church.
No one noticed that the faces of the members of the God's Punishment Squad were stiff, and their eyes were dull. They were the dark puppets that Chen Deng had made.
...
Griffin Knight Legion.
"Sage, the God's Punishment Squad has replied. The target has fled and entered the encampment of the Royal Knights. It's not easy for our people to make a move."
Dennis Snow rubbed her eyebrows, "I know. It seems that I have to do it myself."
In fact, she was not afraid of the pharmacist competition. She was a genius and had her own unique understanding of pharmaceutics.
However, she was the Sage Healer after all. It was intolerable for a newbie pharmacist to provoke her.
Nicholas was very lucky to be able to get close to the Royal Knights.
"Speed up to Rose City."
...
Three days later, the Pharmacists Guild in Rose City was already packed with people.
"The Sage Healer is coming today. I wonder if she can win this challenge."
"After all, she is a sage. Her strength should be unquestionable."
"Look, it's the Griffin Knight Legion. The Holy Church is really generous!"
"What beautiful griffins. I want one too."
"Heh, these Griffin Knights are the elites of the Holy Church. Not just anyone can enter."
"Who are you scolding?"
Looking at the chaotic scene below, Dennis frowned.
