223: The emperor issued an edict

After a moment of dizziness, Ice Heart Queen finally adjusted her state.

With her Mental Energy, she could indeed support tens of thousands of Professionals.

It was just that Qin Yang suddenly summoned so many units, which caught her off guard.

“Hoo—”

Ice Heart Queen let out a long breath and said to the Pope, “This Qin Yang is truly wicked. I’ve never seen such a powerful Summoner as him.”

The Pope frowned and said, “In terms of summoning, can he be stronger than you? Your Undead Sea has no limit on quantity.”

“It’s not a matter of quantity.”

Ice Heart Queen shook her head and said,

“Generally speaking, Summoners only have two directions.”

“One is to go the quality route, summoning powerful combat units, but the number will be limited to 1 to 3.”

“The other route is the quantity route, like a Necromancer, where the quality of individual summoned units is very poor, but they can win by relying on a huge number.”

Speaking of this, Ice Heart Queen looked at the Pope and said, “Qin Yang’s summoned creatures not only have high individual quality, but their number has also reached several thousands. This completely goes against the mechanism of Summoners…”

“So what?”

The Pope said in a deep voice, “You’re not afraid of a junior, are you?”

Ice Heart Queen glared at the Pope and said, “You don’t need to use such a low-level taunt against me. I can tell you clearly that as a Summoner, Qin Yang’s potential is above mine.”

“To gain the approval of you, Ice Heart Queen, should be enough for Qin Yang to boast about for a lifetime, right?”

The Pope said sarcastically.

Ice Heart Queen’s words, which boosted others’ morale, made him feel very uncertain.

“Boast?”

Ice Heart Queen sneered, “He also has to get out of the Throne of Bones first.”

Just then, waves of thunderous cheers, like a tsunami, came.

“By the Imperial Edict of the Supreme Emperor—”

“The Pope has betrayed Holy Light and is currently performing an evil sacrifice here.”

“The so-called simulated Secret Realm is actually Ice Heart Queen’s exclusive Domain, the Throne of Bones.”

“In this place, once a Professional is defeated, their Soul will be captured.”

“These Souls will all be used as sacrifices by the Pope and offered to an evil god!”

“I command you to immediately stop fighting and gather towards me!”

The 3,000 Imperial Guards shouted in unison, their voices amplified and spread to every corner of the Throne of Bones.

Hearing these words, all the Professionals were stunned.

Leaving aside why the other party called himself an Emperor.

Just the news of the Pope betraying Holy Light was absolutely explosive.

The gravity of this news was no less than a world-destroying forbidden curse detonating in the center of the Holy City.

The Pope!

He was the spiritual figure of the Western World.

Daring to disrespect him would lead to imprisonment.

In severe cases, one might even be treated as a heretic and tied to a stake.

And this person, who called himself “Supreme Emperor,” dared to say that the Pope had betrayed Holy Light and was performing an evil sacrifice?

If this person wasn't crazy,

Then he was speaking the truth that others dared not speak!

For a time, everyone’s expressions turned ugly.

They looked at each other, seemingly trying to find an answer in each other’s eyes.

“Supreme… isn’t that Qin Yang’s profession name?”

“It seems so, I heard he can summon Golden Armor Warriors infinitely.”

“It really is infinite summoning! I thought the Jiuzhou Federation was just bragging before…”

“What do you all say? Are his words credible?”

The Professionals, who were just fighting fiercely, began to discuss animatedly.

The Pope betraying Holy Light was indeed unbelievable.

But Qin Yang, as a legendary Professional, daring to openly expose this, didn’t seem like simple rumor-mongering or slander.

The Pope betrayed Holy Light, or Qin Yang slandered the Pope.

One of them must be crazy.

For a time, most people were in a dilemma, not knowing who to believe.

But one thing was certain—

With Qin Yang’s interruption,

No one was in the mood to continue the competition.

With someone disrupting the competition, it was highly likely to be called off, and continuing to fight was meaningless.

Now, it was best to wait and see the outcome.

As for Qin Yang’s call to gather towards him, quite a few people responded.

The remaining people who didn’t move,

Were mostly Professionals from the Western World.

They also had concerns.

If they followed Qin Yang’s words now,

Wouldn’t that be equivalent to endorsing his statements?

This was disrespect to the Pope, and before things were clear, they certainly wouldn’t blindly follow unconditionally.

“Good effect.”

Qin Yang watched as about half of the Professionals moved towards his direction, feeling very satisfied.

As long as these people gathered within a certain range, he could let them enter the Human Emperor Domain, and then use the xuanyuan sword to cleave space and escape the Throne of Bones.

Without these sacrifice Materials, the Pope’s goal of summoning an evil god would not be achieved.

However, this was just an ideal state.

Qin Yang didn’t hold too much hope for it.

Ice Heart Queen and the Pope were still in the Throne of Bones.

They wouldn’t just stand by and watch him take away the sacrifices without doing anything.

At the same time.

Outside, the light curtain in the sky had disappeared.

Everyone still watching the battle was puzzled.

“What’s going on? I just saw a golden light descend and wanted to see who it was, but why was the camera cut?”

“What was that golden light?”

“It feels like someone invaded the simulated Secret Realm?”

“I think so too, something is going to happen to the competition.”

The audience outside discussed animatedly,

A strong sense of unease spread throughout the city.

In the square in front of the Holy Light Tower, more than a thousand Physical Bodies of contestants were still standing.

If something went wrong with the Secret Realm, preventing those Souls from returning to their Physical Bodies, it would be a major accident.

Those who made it to the finals were not ordinary people.

All contestants had a professional strength of transcendent level or above.

Such potential, in any country, would make them favored by heaven.

If they were all wiped out due to an accident, the consequences would truly be unimaginable!

The more everyone thought about it, the more flustered they became, starting to look around, only to see large groups of Professionals surrounding the entire Holy Light Tower..

And the two Emperors, who had been floating in the air, had entered the Holy Light Tower.

“Why are they surrounding the Holy Light Tower?”

“The key is that the two Emperors also went in, the situation doesn’t look good.”

“My Holy Light, something really didn’t go wrong, did it!”

“I feel like we are about to witness the biggest accident in history.”

“Witness my ass! This is a place of trouble, not suitable to stay long, retreat!”

Looking at the situation before them, everyone became even more panicked.

Some people jumped off the viewing platform and ran in the direction away from the Holy Light Tower.

However.

The most panicked person was still the Pope in the Throne of Bones.

He never expected that Qin Yang would use the unified shouts of 3,000 Golden Armor Warriors to convey the truth of the sacrifice to all Professionals in the Throne of Bones in a short time.

Now, everyone was speculating about the motive of this competition, who would still continue to fight?

The plan had reached this point, and it was completely out of control.

He could only go all out and kill everyone in the Throne of Bones.

But this also meant that he had no retreat.

At this moment, the Pope was covered in sweat.

The panic in his eyes could no longer be hidden.

And Ice Heart Queen, who was beside him, smiled and asked, “Qin Yang has torn up your script, can we make our move now?”
