Chapter 854: 547. Iron-boned and sonorous

Dragon Mountain City, a city located at the border of the Magic Republic. Although remote, it is not backward. On the contrary, it was once one of the largest cities within the Magic Republic.

Due to the excellent mineral energy reserves surrounding it, this place was once the industrial city of the Magic Republic and was also reputed as the city of wealth.

Even in today’s post-apocalyptic environnt, this strong city has not been destroyed by calamity beasts, becoming a doomsday fortress city similar to the capital, Pandora.

In fact, thanks to the strong and complete industrial base within the city, Dragon Mountain City has been even more comfortable than Pandora City in recent years, with incredibly tall and massive city walls rising from the ground. These walls, hundreds of ters tall and dozens of ters thick, provide a great sense of security. The city’s various basic facilities are also very well-equipped, much better than the rudintary temporary housing conditions in Pandora Satellite City.

Unfortunately, this is still the apocalypse. You can’t live comfortably forever. The prosperity of this fortress city ultimately attracted formidable enemies to its door.

“Lord redith, do we really have a chance to win next?”

“Yeah, yeah, this Mountain-Bearing Dragon Tortoise is just too ridiculously huge. The weapons the mortals in the city have now just can’t inflict any effective damage on it.”

“Yeah, Lord, I think we should call for reinforcents.”

“It might be too late to call for help now. How about we retreat with the people?”

…….

On the towering walls of Dragon Mountain City, several Angel Witches with red wings on their backs were using spells to observe the giant calamity beast slowly but steadily advancing toward them. Then, the Angel Witches with only four wings withdrew their gaze and advised the leader Angel Witch with eight wings.

But redith’s expression was sowhat grim.

“Shut up. Have you forgotten the honor we bear as Holy Blood Bearers? How can you face your red wings behind you, and how can you live up to the expectations of the God King?”

She scolded her subordinate sisters harshly, her face dark.

However….

“Co on, redith, at a ti like this, you’re still indulging in your role-playing fantasies? We’ve been good sisters for so many years and played along with you normally, but we hope you can be reasonable when it cos to serious matters.”

“And the red wings, red wings are the symbol of identity exclusively for the direct lineage of the Holy Pope. Don’t you forget our red wings are just dyed.”

“Alright, Little redith, I know you don’t want to lose face by asking the Pri Minister for help, but this calamity beast is not about our dignity. If Dragon Mountain City falls, the billions of mortals in the city won’t make it, and the God King would truly punish us then.”

Previously, the Angel Witches were quite respectful toward redith, always addressing her as ‘Lord,’ but suddenly, they turned their attitude. One even directly plucked a feather from the six-winged Angel Lady, causing the president of the Holy Blood Sisterhood Society to wince in pain.

However, seeing the feather with a red surface but a faintly white root in her sister’s hand, she fell silent.

The red wings within the God King Sect are a symbol of identity because the God King’s wings are twelve fiery red wings.

But generally, Angel Witches use the evolution template of normal Angels, naturally possessing the most common white wings. Only the Holy Pope as the Academy Head or the forr Saintess Phoenix, those with the God King’s bloodline, could possibly be born with fiery red wings.

Fortunately, the authority of the God King Sect has waned over the years and no longer dominates as it used to. Otherwise, simply dyeing their wings red would have been enough for the Heretic Tribunal to summon them for a tea session.

Even so, redith and her actions are seen as sowhat unconventional in the eyes of more traditional Angel Witches, with their gazes akin to looking at non-mainstream delinquent girls.

Of course, redith never really cared about others’ opinions. She thought she looked cool this way, and besides, she wasn’t alone. There was always a bunch of good sisters willing to ss around with her, which she always kept in mind.

But clearly, this ti the sisters did not support her as they usually did.

After all, for the Holy Blood Sisterhood to beco one of the Academy’s top ten societies, even if they were at the bottom, they didn’t rely on familial connections. Their current ranking was earned through the sisters’ hard work and effort.

Thus, they were obviously no fools. Even if redith, their leader, often got carried away, the other sisters would find ways to counsel her against being impulsive.

And now, redith’s external anti-impulse system had obviously kicked into action again.

Fine, she knew her sisters were right. That Mountain-Bearing Dragon Tortoise was far beyond what a few witches could handle. Seeking reinforcents or retreating was the rational decision. However, this was a task given to her by the God King. No matter what, she should complete it properly.
