Chapter 358: Heterogeneous Alliance
The other bishops were afraid to speak, this was a struggle at the highest level of the Holy See, and the 6 paladins and 12 cardinals had never dealt with each other, fighting for their own interests.
The 4 knights were angry, and Cardinal Garriff obviously didn't want them to get the Holy Weapon to add a paladin.
Garif said leisurely: "I naturally believe in the belief of the White Gard Paladin in my lord, otherwise you would not be able to obtain the approval of the holy weapon, but, Bai Jiade, I don't care if you want it or not, but I am the commander of this operation, you must follow my orders, this is the Pope's will." Do you want to disobey the will of the Pope, who represents my Lord?"
Bai Jiade was short of breath, and it took a long time before he burst out with a sentence: "Don't dare!"
"Then I command you, then, to gather all your men, and keep the church under strict guard," said Garriff, "and if any heretic or alien alliance comes to commit it, judge them mercilessly in the glory of my lord, and my lord will bless you!"
In the face of Garif's ruthless gaze, Bai Jiade could only nod and obey, but he was extremely angry in his heart, he only brought 4 knights this time, counting their knight squires, they were only 50 people, and the number of warriors in the Japanese Kingdom alone was more than that, not counting the manpower of the Heterogeneous Alliance.
That night, the cold moon poured down, and all corners of St. Paul's Cathedral were guarded by the Holy See, and White Gard patrolled everywhere.
In the early hours of the morning, Bai Jiade walked to the small square inside the church, saw the knight Durant practicing his sword, and asked, "Is there anything unusual?"
Durant put away his sword: "No anomalies found!"
Bai Jiade nodded: "Be on guard." It won't be stable for a few days. The enemy will definitely come and sabotage. You won't watch us perform a ritual on the Hallow!"
Duran nodded, and it was at this time that something happened that happened.
Countless black bats suddenly swooped down from the sky, and countless black shadows brought up afterimages one after another, overwhelmingly slaughtering them.
Suddenly, several knight squires were knocked down in the screams, and each knight squire was bitten in the neck by several bats, and then it could be seen that a thick evil black gas came out of their wounds. In a few moments, several of the knight's squires were reduced to dried corpses drained of blood.
"It's an alien alliance!"
Durant's face changed greatly, the long sword in his hand was already out of the sheath, slashing out, the sharp sword qi slashed into the pile of bats, and a terrible scream came, and then he saw two bats fall to the ground, flutter for a while, die, and dissipate into a puff of smoke.
The other bats took on human forms as they approached inside. All of them were pale, and their royal blue eyes shone wildly. Staring fearfully at the sword in Durant's hand, it was a weapon baptized by the Pope to restrain the dark creatures.
"Evil Bloodline!" Durant said.
Suddenly, a loud chant was heard: "In the name of my Lord, cast out all evil, and the glory of my Lord will be overshadowed!"
Suddenly, a thick milky white light shot out from a certain room, and then spread, more than a dozen blood clans screamed, black mist rose all over their bodies, and hurriedly recovered the bats to escape, however, this milky white light was too powerful, and before they could fly out of the range of the light, they turned into dust particles and dissipated invisibly.
In the church, a large number of knight attendants poured out from all corners, and the other three knights also heard the news and saw the scene just now.
"The light magic of the 6 cardinals, the divine blessing, the Holy See, it seems that this time the Holy See has really made a lot of money!" A cold and hoarse voice came, "However, since we have come to London, we old friends will be unhappy if we don't leave anything behind!" What do you say, White Gard Paladin?"
A dozen or so guys shrouded in black robes slowly walked out of some dark corner of the square, led by a middle-aged man, still pale, with a cruel smile on his face, who could only continue, "Cardinal Califf, don't you have to go into hiding, and come to London and not come out to meet your old friends?
Suddenly, more than a dozen black-robed men behind him laughed, and the cold voice made the knights present change color, and their faces were full of anger, as long as Lord Bai Jiade gave an order, as believers in God, they would definitely expel these aliens.
However, Bai Jiade gritted his teeth and did not speak, staring at the middle-aged man led by him, Philip, known as the youngest marquis of the blood clan, with unpredictable magical powers, he had fought with him twice, and he was not sure that he could deal with him.
At this moment, the door directly east of the square was pushed open, and Garif in a white robe walked out, followed by six cardinals with solemn faces.
"Philip, has the Alien Alliance sent you out this time, it seems that you are destined to be judged by my Lord here tonight!" said Galiff's voice unhurriedly.
"300 years ago, your Holy See listed me as the number one wanted trial, but it seems that you goddamn believers can't do anything with me!" said the middle-aged man at the head, Marquis Philip, who was also known as Marquis Philip in Gallif's mouth, chuckled.
"This time, you can't escape!" said Galiff heavily.
"Yes, just you people? Oh, I'll count, the paladin White Gard, 4 knights, and 6 cardinals. I want you to stay for good, giggles, don't you know that London is the stronghold of our alien alliance?" said the Marquis Philip.
As he spoke, many black shadows appeared around the square, and it seemed that this time the Alien Alliance had indeed made a lot of determination to concentrate on the Holy See, who made them bold to come to the base camp of the Alien Alliance.
Europe, especially the United Kingdom, has always been an active region for heterogeneous alliances, perhaps for historical reasons, where there is always a suitable soil for heterogeneous alliances to take root and survive.
Many knight squires silently stood up and confronted the creatures of darkness.
Bai Jiade smiled bitterly, this time, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult, he really can't figure out why the Pope would give such an order to let the precious holy artifact hold a ceremony to recognize the Lord in London, the base camp of the Heterogeneous Alliance, and only then did he send himself and Garif over, this is not a sheep's mouth.
The Alien Alliance is not so easy to talk about, since before the Middle Ages, the two sides have been at odds, and countless dark creatures have died at the hands of the Holy See.
"Gariff, although I don't know where you got your confidence, but I advise you to give up that holy weapon, we don't want to go to war, after all, war means more death, we just want to survive well, but that holy weapon threatens our existence, you already have 6 paladins, you can't have one more. Hand over that artifact, otherwise, we will not hesitate to declare war on the Holy See and resume the war!"
A cold voice came from the darkness, only to see a dozen handsome men and women with pale faces and slightly baring their fangs appearing in the square, Durant and other clergy were all shocked, these men and women were wearing golden robes, representing that they belonged to the oldest and most noble blood family, the Sullivan family, known as the royal family of the blood family.
"Vic, good, good, even you show up!" Gallif laughed.
"Vic, what nonsense with these lackeys, the moonlight is good tonight, and my blood is already boiling!" said Marquis Philip.
The atmosphere in the square was tense, and at this moment, a dazzling beam of light suddenly came from under the night sky, and then there was a roar, and everyone looked up to see six helicopters flying in the distance.
"Damn it, it's a human weapon!" said Philip, furious.
Although he was proud and claimed to be the youngest marquis of the Blood Clan, he did not dare to say that he could withstand the Vulcan heavy machine gun of the human race.
"Withdraw!"
Philip fell off and flew away as a golden bat, and all of a sudden, the other Bloods left.
Soon, the dark shadows looming in the square also receded like a tide, and the clergy of the Holy See saw that there were not only blood clans, but also dozens of high-level werewolves, all carrying maces, as well as strange dark wizards.
All the clergy breathed a sigh of relief, even the paladin Bai Jiade wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, if the battle really broke out just now, I was afraid that it would be a question whether St. Paul's Cathedral could stand in the sun tomorrow.
Only Garif was still calm, looked at everyone, and said, "Everyone has returned to their posts, your performance is very good tonight, and my lord will not forget your bravery!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving only a dark shadow for everyone.
Soon, the helicopter flew to the square of St. Paul's Cathedral, and dozens of armed soldiers descended from the soft ladder, and Bai Jiade learned that they were all British royal guards, and they had been ordered to protect the church and the clergy.
The soldiers stayed, and the six helicopters quickly left.
Bai Jiade looked funny, if it weren't for the deterrence of the large-caliber heavy machine guns on the helicopter, these soldiers alone would not be able to make the people of the alien alliance retreat.
However, since the British/National/Government/Government was so enthusiastic, Bai Jiade could not refute the face of others, so he cooperated with a captain to arrange their guard work.
The soldiers were in charge of the sentry and the knightly squires of the Holy See were in charge of the sentry, and Bai Jiade believed that the battle that did not break out tonight would come sooner or later, just as the Marquis of Vic had said, and they would not allow another paladin to appear in the Holy See. With two days left before the Sacred Artifact Confession Ceremony, is it true that the Pope does not plan to send any more reinforcements?
The sun slowly rose in the early morning, bathed in warm sunlight again, and all the clergy felt how happy they were at the moment. (To be continued......)
