Chapter 39: The Demon God Ruins

Arthur cursed, but only glanced out of the church, and then withdrew his hand from the hilt of the sword.

As was the case with the caravan last time we searched, there was a full squad of knights outside.

The Knights of the Church of Light are organized, and the most basic level is the team, with twelve knights as a team, and one chief and one deputy chief knight. The minimum level requirement for a knight is a third-level warrior, and the knight chief is generally a fourth- or fifth-level captain.

These Church Knights are not the scattered Wind Bandits, the Church Knights are well trained and far superior to the regular army of the kingdom, and their devout faith is the backbone of their unrelenting battle. If Arthur dared to resist, he would never have escaped the roundup.

"Can you come in and search, see if there's anyone you want to arrest?" The bearded man turned sideways and opened the door, and when he turned around, he gave Arthur a special look, and his eyes were inquiring.

Arthur only pretended not to see.

The young knight leader who led the team glared at the bearded man with a grim gaze, but he stood still and did not move, nor did the knight behind him.

The people in the church did not dare to go out for a while, and the scene was strangely frozen for a while.

Just when the people in the church were full of doubts, three more rode outside the church. The leader was a white-robed and slightly chubby priest of light, and the two behind him were halberd-wielding warriors in black armor.

The bearded man's face began to become solemn, the Church of Light actually dispatched the Priest of Light, the Warrior of Light and a team of Punishment Knights at one time, what kind of person made the Church so aggressive!

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Arthur again, only to find that Arthur was looking out the door with curiosity, and there was no nervousness or anxiety on his face at all.

Arthur's expression was not pretentious at all, this was the first time he had seen the priests and warriors of the church, completely unaware of what their presence meant?

The chief knight bowed slightly to the priest, apparently the other party's identity was still above his own.

"That's right, right here, I already feel the breath of dark magic!" the priest looked a little excited, and walked straight to the church.

The priest's gaze swept over the faces of the people in the church, paused slightly as he passed Arthur, then swept over, and finally came to rest on the broken idol in the middle of the church.

"Azasia! that's the demon god Azasia!" the priest suddenly shouted, pointing to the broken idol.

Everyone in the church is still at a loss, except for the people in the Church of Light, I'm afraid no one knows what the demon god is?

Priest Bright shouted excitedly, "I know why that remnant is hiding here, this was their stronghold back then! Which bastard did it? After eradicating those demon cubs, he didn't completely burn this place down. ”

The Knight's gaze still scanned back and forth over the faces of the people in the church, "What about these people? There doesn't seem to be the boy we want to arrest here?"

"Take everyone back and interrogate them one by one!"

The chief knight hesitated for a moment, then reconfirmed to the priest, "You mean to bring them all back?"

The priest said slowly in an unquestioning tone: "Although the dark mage found in the above information is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, who can guarantee that he has no allies or handed over the dark magic to others?

When the pastor said this, he did not shy away from those present.

Dark magic is only revealed when it is cast, and no one can tell if it is not used, so the church has not completely eliminated the dark mage for thousands of years, which has also led to the church of light gradually forming a domineering habit of preferring to kill by mistake rather than let go.

The bearded man secretly exchanged glances with a few companions behind him, and the seven or eight people who had gathered on the left side knelt directly on the ground in fright, and some even began to cry.

The Religious Correctional Facility was almost hellish in the eyes of the civilians, and it seemed that no one had ever been caught alive and made it out.

Arthur was stunned at this time, he finally knew who the church was looking for, it turned out to be a dark mage on the continent who was rumored to be extinct. The Church of Light considers them demonic believers and sees them as the greatest threat to the Church, and has not stopped paying them for thousands of years.

The family in the church was obviously much calmer, and the middle-aged man dressed as a scribe took a few steps forward and bowed slightly to the priest, "I think there is some misunderstanding here, we are from the Grand Duke's Mansion of Palmer, and we are just passing by here to take shelter from the rain." ”

The fat priest raised his eyelids and glanced at the middle-aged scribe, "Is it a misunderstanding, and it will be found out when you get to the punishment center, if it really doesn't matter, I will let you go back." ”

Unexpectedly, he was scolded back with a word, and the middle-aged scribe's brows furrowed.

A warrior entourage behind him stepped in front of the priest in a few steps, glaring angrily at the fat priest, "I'm afraid your correctional center can't take care of the affairs of our Grand Duke's Mansion!"

"The whole world is under the grace of the God of Light, and all beings in the world belong to the gods, do you still want to disobey the will of the God of Light?"

The attendant spat on the ground disdainfully, "Not everyone is afraid of your church, I think who dares to take our master away?"

"I declare you blasphemous, and the wrath of God will come upon your sinful flesh!" the fat priest roared.

As the priest's words fell, the two Punishment Knights behind him pounced on the retinue with swords.

"Don't do anything!" the middle-aged scribe shouted anxiously.

In the event of a head-on conflict with the religious correctional center, things will become unmanageable.

The attendant apparently hesitated when he heard the shout, but the two knights of punishment would not listen to the scribe's orders, and at the moment when the attendant hesitated, a sword stabbed him in the thigh.

The attendant roared in pain, fought back angrily, and struck the Knight of Punishment in the front breastplate with a fierce punch, knocking him staggering and falling backwards.

As soon as the attendant resisted, the other knight of punishment, who was also armed with a sword and was about to stab him in the leg, lifted the tip of his sword upward, and the blade of the sword stabbed the whole into the lower abdomen.

As soon as the sword was drawn, blood spurted out.

The attendant fell to the ground, his hands clutching his abdomen, his body convulsing, and he saw that he would not survive.

No one expected these punishment knights to say that they would do it! The little boy behind the scribe burst into tears.

"You, you ......" the middle-aged scribe angrily pointed at the church, he didn't expect that he would kill his followers with a single sentence.

"Take it all. The fat priest said coldly.

The retributive knight behind him rushed up with a sword and rope in hand, and was about to tie up all the people in the church and take them away.

The first to be caught was the nearest middle-aged scribe, who was kicked to the ground by a punishment knight, leaned over and began to tie up.

The few remaining retinues behind the scribe began to resist in the face of the punishing knights who pounced on them, and the old man who looked like an older butler was obviously superior to these retribution knights.

Perhaps because his master was arrested and his companion died tragically, the old man did not have any scruples, and his attack was extremely ruthless, and after deflecting the sword stabbed by the punishing knight with his pipe, he punched the knight in the throat and directly shattered his throat bone. Then he turned and kicked the knight who had pounced on the Ling's side into the air.

The chief knight took two knights, and the three of them attacked at the same time to resist the attack of the old butler.

On the other side, the bearded man and several of his companions also began to resist.

These rangers are people who are not bound by the law and discipline, and once they decide to use force, they have no scruples, and they are desperate to make a move.

The bearded ranger turned out to be a fifth-level war captain, and a big sword wrapped in fighting spirit in his hand swung it, forcing the three punishment knights to retreat again and again.

The three companions behind him were also ruthless, one wielding an axe and one wielding a sword, and one wielding a double-headed chain the size of a human head, each of whom was stronger than a single punishment knight.

The violent onslaught of several people forced the punishment knight to retreat to the door of the church.

Seeing this, the two light warriors behind the priest greeted them with their halberds, and the halberds stabbed and shot fiercely before forcing several rangers back.

The whole church was in a mess.

In the melee, no one paid attention to the fact that a black mist was slowly rising from the ground......
