Chapter 223: When the City is Broken
The towering walls were no longer guarded by soldiers, and a group of women took their place, looking out over the gently rolling hillsides and fields.
Miria ...... The Lajuana team are all newcomers, and the captain is not there, will it be too reluctant to let them go? Sometimes experience is more reliable than strength. Jane, who exuded a neutral beauty, worried about the group of warriors not far away.
"Jane, I trust them." Miriya maintained a strong and confident posture, and replied in a low voice, "When they were in the north, you also saw when they fought Annabelle, although Annabelle deliberately released water, they also accumulated experience in fighting the Awakened. In addition, the combined attacks of Judith and the Jyoti sisters, and the heavy attacks of Vyven are all good swordsmanship, plus they are fighters of the same class, and their comprehensive strength will not be lower than that of Team Cynthia or Team Belonica. β
"What about Team Flora? When Yuma goes to help the soldiers, there are only three left, and their opponent is the Upper Awakened. β
"Are you worried?" Miria asked rhetorically, "There will be deaths of comrades in this battle, or a large number of casualties. β
"Of course, I'm worried." Jane sighed rarely, "Although I know that there is always danger in battle...... If Lahuana hadn't gone south, or if Li Fang had left equipment on one of us, this battle would have been much easier. β
"Things don't always go their way." Miria was comforted and quipped, "Maybe that day Flora can save Galadia and we can have a lot easier, right?" β
"Well, at least you don't have to face three awakened people in a team of four." After all, Jane was a single-digit sword, and quickly let go of her worries and replied with a smile.
"I heard that." Flora walked over alone, "Jane, Jonny's kid has been making rapid progress recently, and like Claire of Wendini's team, if you want to rank, you must already have the strength of the upper sword, I think Miria also knows this, so she arranged it like this." β
And Galadia ...... Let's hope she's safe. β
Miria and Jane shared the same concerns, and what Galadia said that day really made them worry about the purpose of her purpose in rushing back to the organization.
β¦β¦
"Have all the residents settled?" A calm male voice rang out in the empty streets.
"It's barely settled, it's a big mess." Xue Du let out a big sigh and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "But don't worry, I have also visited your fiancΓ©e, Miss Minian, who is preparing a lot of food with her servants, saying that she wants to help the church share the pressure." Everyone is very busy. β
"Well, that's good."
Gegu's tall figure stood straight, and behind him were more than a hundred heavily armed and staring soldiers, as well as four great swords who had been ordered to come to the rescue.
"Although the other paths are blocked, there is no guarantee that there will be no demons that will be missed, can you go to the residents alone?" His eyes were on the four blonde women with silver eyes.
"What a joke! In the worst-case scenario, you'll have to keep more than 60 demons at bay here! Deanna, who ranked No.44, looked back angrily, "We are not high-ranking captains, even with your assistance, it is very reluctant for four people to deal with so many demons!" β
"Even if we try our best to attract all the demons with this body, as long as one demon slips through, we don't know how many people will die, after all, the nobles' guards don't protect the commoners." Xue Du and a dozen other soldiers were dressed in light leather armor, and they were all good at hand-to-hand combat or agility.
Of course, they are all guys who are not afraid of death.
"I think this should also be taken into account, after all, our priority now is not to destroy the demons, but to protect the inhabitants of Rapoll, who live here and have accepted us." Magirta, who ranked No.41, smiled.
"You ...... Forget it, who's going? Deanna gave up and said.
In the rear, it will definitely be safer than here.
"Let Miss Yuma go, she is the highest ranked among us, and I believe that she can be the fastest to kill in the face of the demon who has slipped through the net." Yuliana, who ranked No.43, said.
"Huh?" Yuma, who ranked No.40, pointed at herself weakly and unconfidently, looking incredulous.
β¦β¦
"There it is!" On the city walls, Monica reminded in a condensed voice, but this time it was not perception, but the enemy that could be seen just by sight.
From a distance, they look short in stature, but when you compare the environment, you will find that the awakened people, who are very large, are emerging from the side of the distant hillside. The ant-like swarm of demons also followed suit.
"Each team selects a target, waits for the awakened to enter the city and is preliminarily divided by the street, and then dispatches to lure and intercept!" Miria shouted the last order before the battle.
"Understood!
"I want the tallest one!" Carrying two large swords, Wendini, who was strong and strong, was the first to choose one.
"Then leave the other Superior Awakened to us." Flora is just as confident, even if she only has two team members around her, Jonny and Bamela.
"Hold them back, our side will solve it as soon as possible and come to support." Jane's tone was flat, but her concern could be heard.
The captains standing on the city walls quickly selected the targets of their squads, and waited for the Awakened to grow in size in an atmosphere of increasing tension, excitement, and worry.
Rumble!
The walls of more than ten meters high were vulnerable in front of monsters of almost equal height.
The avalanche-like scene was visible to all of Rapoll, the wind kicking up a large amount of smoke and dust, and the cracked and rolling pieces rumbled and overwhelmed the dozen or so houses nearby.
Then the terrifying figure of the monster appeared in front of everyone, and let out a pleasant and high-pitched chirp......
Rumble!
Before they could recover from the horror of the monster at the collapse of the wall, the people hiding behind were horrified to see that a stocky monster had knocked a hole in the wall from the side.
Other, slightly smaller Awokens stepped in from behind them, and at their feet there was a large group of demons eager to move quickly......
"Can they fight off such a terrible monster?"
It was mainly the clergy who gathered in the room, and the atmosphere was just as tense, and Candace stared out the window at the northeast scene.
"This is God's test for us, child. Now their job is to fight, and we're trying to make them feel at ease to focus on fighting, and if there's anything else they want to do, pray for them. Archbishop Gamori stood by the window in a neat and upright manner, with a calm expression and no panic.
"If I haven't already...... None of them are worth worrying about. β
"What?" Candace looked at her friend she had brought in, a female painter who was already quite famous in the Holy Capital.
"Nothing." Ophelia turned her head away, resting her hand lightly on the humanoid sculpture beside her. 8)
