Chapter Thirty-Six: The Night Is Dark and the Wind is High

Out of the door of the prayer room, Luo Lan cautiously touched the front door of the church.

It was impossible for him to go back to the underground passage at the back door, after all, there was such a big commotion in the cemetery, maybe someone was already squatting there, and he would not be caught as soon as he went out?

There were no dangers along the way, but they didn't meet anyone unexpectedly, even the knights who were originally guarding the door of the church didn't see any of them, Luo Lan estimated that it was very likely that they were all sent to investigate the situation of the previous earthquake, or go to the central square to guard the imminent execution of the burning.

After sneaking out of the church, Luo Lan dodged and hid in an alley, and her tense nerves finally relaxed a little at this moment.

Walking along the alley towards the central square, while thinking about the battle that might take place, Luo Lan estimated that there would not be many guards in the square, but there would not be few either, and to save those Orientals, I am afraid that in addition to attacking, the only way to attract the attention of those knights and transfer a group of them away!

How can I transfer a group of knights who are guarding?

Luo Lan stopped in a tangled way, thinking intently, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind!

"There it is!"

Looking back at the towering church behind him, it seemed that the structure of the church was mostly wooden, and it was the tallest building in the entire town, and once something happened here, the central square should be visible at a glance!

After checking the things in the storage space, some of the torches and oil and other things that I bought before were still there, the corners of Luo Lan's mouth glanced slightly, and a sharp glint flashed in her eyes.

"Don't blame me, at least no one should die like this!"

At this time, a gust of sea breeze blew in the face, and a large number of clouds slowly shrouded the originally bright starry sky in the sky.

The wind is blowing!!

Luo Lan looked up at the sky in surprise and sighed: "It seems that today's luck is indeed good!" ”

With a slight smile, he turned and ran quickly towards the church......

……

Town center square

A large number of people whispered around a high platform built in the square.

A group of tall knights, their swords unsheathed, vigilantly kept the populace out of a certain range.

On the high platform stood several wooden pillars, on which were bound several Oriental men who were almost completely wrapped in robes, and under the pillars a large amount of wood was piled up, which was shiny and shiny, apparently drenched with a layer of fire oil.

"Lord Karl!"

A knight went up to the high platform, came to Karl who was standing in the other corner, and after making a knightly salute, he said:

"Your Excellency Bishop has sent an edict ordering you to begin the execution."

"I see."

Waving his hand for the knight to leave, Karl looked around with some uneasy.

It doesn't seem that there are any suspicious characters nearby, and the pagans who were worried about it haven't slipped through the net have not appeared, could it be that I am too careful?

However, what about the faint uneasiness in my heart?

Suddenly!

The sudden passage in the cemetery flashed through Carl's mind!

Cemetery? An underground passage to the church? Church......?

Suddenly thinking of something, as if he had a heart in his heart, Carl raised his head sharply and looked in the direction of the church, just at this moment in the church, a large flickering flame light came from afar, and the flame seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, with the help of the surrounding sea breeze, almost instantly dyed half of the sky red!

"That's ......!? Church!! ”

Carl's eyes looked at the burning spire of the church, and his face suddenly changed!

"It's on fire~~!"

"The church is on fire ~!!"

"Come and put out the fire~!!"

Some of the people who were originally gathered in the square also discovered the situation of the church, and the whole square was in chaos in an instant!

"Your Excellency!!" Several knights ran to Karl's side in a panic.

"You hurry up and take someone back to the church, and you must put out the fire as soon as possible!!" Karl pointed to a knight and commanded in a thunderous voice!

"Yes!!"

The knight replied with a serious expression, and then gathered a large number of knights to follow him and hurried in the direction of the church!

Looking at the few knights who were guarding around him in an instant, a cold light suddenly flashed in Karl's eyes, and he muttered to himself:

"Your purpose has been accomplished! So, let me see - who the hell are you!! ”

……

It was naturally Luo Lan who set fire to the church.

With the help of Aurora and Nicole, who can fly, Luo Lan easily ignited many parts of the church at the same time, and the wind fueled the fire, and it didn't take long for the raging fire to start burning all over the church.

Moreover, there were originally a large number of forbidden magic arrays near the church, and it was impossible for ordinary low-level elemental mages to release magic here, not to mention that Luo Lan had been here for several days, and the mages had never seen any of them, at most they had only heard some rumors;

Looking at the fire in front of him, it is estimated that without the help of the mage water magic, this fire will not be so easy to extinguish for a while, Luo Lan's eyebrows raised slightly, and he turned around and hurried down the alley towards the central square!

In a short time he reached the vicinity of the square,

Hiding at the exit of an alley, he looked at the situation in the square,

There are now far fewer people here, and most of the people still present have uneasy looks on their faces.

On a high platform in the middle, Luo Lan saw at a glance the orientals he was trying to save.

"It's fine! The stake hasn't started yet! ”

Luo Lan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked carefully around again, Luo Lan roughly counted, there were no more than 5 guardian knights around the high platform around the entire square, and it looked like almost all of them should be good hands above bronze.

On the high platform, there was a guy who looked obviously different, his majestic and tall figure, coupled with a beautiful full-body armor, and the powerful aura of the silver rank faintly emanated, made Luo Lan feel extremely dangerous!

"That guy is probably the head of these knights!" Luo Lan's eyes narrowed slightly.

As if feeling the snooping gaze of Luo Lan in the dark, Carl turned around sharply and looked in the direction of Luo Lan, but Luo Lan had already dodged and hid in a dark corner.

"It seems that we need to increase our combat effectiveness, otherwise we will hit that guy's defense head-on, absolutely not!"

Frowning, Luo Lan directly exhaled out the attribute panel, and used up all those skill points in one go.

In an instant, there are several more skills:

[Consumes 1 skill, increases Shadow Swordsmanship by 1/5, proficiency E-, unlocks Condensation]

"Condensation, you can freely change direction in the air during the jump."

[Consumes 5 skills, increases Shadow Swordsmanship by 1/6, proficiency E, Whirlwind Slash unlocks]

"Whirlwind Slash, unleash 1 area slash at enemies within 10 meters, causing them to take physical damage from the Shadow attribute, and have a chance to make the hit enemy enter a bleeding state."

[Consume 6 skills, increase Shadow Swordsmanship by 1/7, proficiency E+, lore unlocked]

"Lore, attacks the enemy and stuns the target, increases attack speed when skill level increases, and has a great chance to deal lethal damage when the local health is less than 10%"

After completing all the skills, Luo Lan took a deep breath, dodged out of the alley, blended into the nearby crowd, and squeezed towards the vicinity of the high platform.

He approached a guard knight with his head bowed, and when he came within a few meters,

'Whoosh! ’

Luo Lan directly turned into a ball of light, and rushed behind the knight in an instant, without waiting for him to react.

'Knock~! ’

A hard elbow hit the back of the knight's head, and without saying a word, the guy rolled his eyes and fainted!

The next moment!

Without waiting for those knights' companions to react, Luo Lan's eyes froze, his body flickered, and his skills were continuously activated!

[Clone! Launch!

In an instant, the figure split into four, turning into four phantoms, teleporting, and almost simultaneously appeared beside the knights who had just drawn their long swords!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

Four more heavy blows in a row, and all the knights were all knocked to the ground in the blink of an eye!

Only then did the entire population around the square know what had happened! In an instant, the screams scattered in all directions, and in the blink of an eye, they ran away.

'Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ’

There was a crisp applause from the high platform behind him, and the sound was still clearly audible in the chaos around him.

Luo Lan looked up at the high platform fiercely, and saw that the knight leader was looking at him calmly.

"Pretty good!" Carl looked at Luo Lan opposite and praised him sincerely.

In fact, with his strength at the peak of the silver mid-rank, he reacted when Luo Lan had just knocked down his first subordinate,

However, it seems that Luo Lan does not seem to have killing intent, and the rank only seems to be the bronze first rank, so he is not in a hurry to intercept it, in his mind, his remaining bronze high-level subordinates are enough to deal with the kid.

But who knows, in the next moment, Luo Lan directly separated several clones, and almost in the blink of an eye, he put down all his remaining subordinates at the same time!

At this time, he was really taken aback, because this kind of skill, it was the first time he had seen it!

A bronze beginner guy put down 5 bronze high-level knights with a wave of his hand, and Carl couldn't help but glance at Luo Lan in front of him.

"Kid from the East, your skills are very powerful!"

Carl slowly walked down from the high platform, the knight's long sword at his waist had reached his hand at some point, and he waved the long sword a few times with one hand, bringing a terrifying whistling sound, Carl said in a deep voice:

"However, I will let you know that after the strength gap reaches a certain level, no matter how powerful the skill is, it will not be able to reverse the situation!"

"Really!?" Luo Lan's eyebrows raised slightly, and with the same wave of his hand, the sword of sealing appeared in his hand, holding a sword flower in one hand, and slowly raising the long sword, the tip of the sword pointed directly at Carl,

"Then I'm going to- give it a try!"

As soon as the words fell, the figures of the two disappeared in place almost at the same time,

"When! While! While! ”

I saw that the two figures kept flashing and disappearing, and sparks burst in the air, and a series of continuous golden and iron sounds sounded......
