Chapter 430: Communication and Assassination
Mitchell says that no one in the Church of the Earth Goddess will touch her, to which Green is skeptical.
Perhaps the church leadership did not intend to completely turn the face with Green out of all considerations, but from those who gave speeches in the "anti-demon" clan, Green saw full of hostility, and said behind his back that without the acquiescence of the church leadership, Green absolutely did not believe it! But in any case, it is not in vain to be able to determine the attitude of the high-level of the Earth Goddess.
By the time Green and Mitchell communicated, the last rays of sunlight had disappeared in Yod. In the middle of the night, dark clouds suddenly obscured the scarlet moon, which symbolized the ominous nature, and a light rain fell from the sky, making it look like a rain of blood, giving people an indescribable sense of unease.
"It's unfortunate that it's raining."
The sheriff wore a raincoat and led the squad members to patrol the streets. The rain of blood in the sky makes people feel irritated and restless, and the rain full of ominous magic will not only increase the mana value of the ground, but also make the probability of monsters appearing higher. Just then, suddenly there was a piercing scream from an alley!
After hearing the screams, the sheriff's expression froze: "Everyone, follow me!" ”
The sheriff led the group, and a group of people rushed into the alley and came to the bottom of a three-story house.
By this time, the whole building had come to life – literally. I saw the building shaking, and I could vaguely see the image of a suspicious face in the building, and the whole building looked like a human face smiling evilly.
Looking at the "living" building in front of him, the sheriff who led the team couldn't help but take a breath of cold air: "Oh! Damn, what's going on? Why is such a big building becoming a monster? ”
"This monster is at least 'silver' level." A vigilante soldier nervously holds the weapon in his hand.
The guard behind the sheriff looked at the building in front of him, and his face turned a little pale: "Captain, what should I do now?" ”
Looking at the building in front of him, the sheriff gritted his silver teeth: "Demolish!" Directly demolished the entire building! ”
"But Captain, there's someone inside."
"So we're going to hurry! Tear down this building before all the people inside die! The sheriff looked back at the weapons in the hands of the crowd.
Usually, the weapons of the security team are mainly spears and swords, but today is a demonic night, and the enemies are mainly non-human species such as monsters and undead, so the weapons and equipment of the security team are mainly heavy hammers and shields. When dealing with humans, these weapons are a little clumsy, but when dealing with various monsters, undead and other inhuman creatures, the hammer is the royal weapon that crushes everything!
Under the orders of the vigilante chief, the guards took the weapons in their hands and slowly approached the house, and then ...... Smash!
"Bang! ~”
"Bang! ~”
……
The hammer slammed against the wall with a dull sound, but the house itself did not seem to be harmed, but rather annoyed.
"Smack~" A wardrobe was thrown out of the window of the house and flew towards the soldiers who smashed the wall.
"Be careful!" The sheriff who led the team pressed his shield and rushed forward, and a shield slammed into the wardrobe that had fallen from the sky.
"Bang! ~”
"Humph! ~" The sheriff snorted coldly and successfully blocked the bookcase.
The house seemed to be very unhappy, and the expression on its face became more and more hideous.
"Captain!" The soldiers exclaimed.
"Holy water! Keep smashing! The sheriff ordered, "This big guy is just a 'black iron' level monster with limited counterattack ability, don't be afraid!" Watch out for its attacks. ”
"Yes!"
On the orders of the sheriff, the soldiers smeared holy water on their hammers. Soon, the soldiers, armed with hammers that glowed with silver, smashed into the houses.
It was raining blood, and the building that had been attacked shook and looked very painful. The sheriff who led the team glanced up at the shaking building, holding a shield to protect the soldiers who smashed the wall from being hit by the counterattack of the house.
This house seems to be powerful, but the actual combat effectiveness is not strong.
At the same time, the problem of different levels of monster looting broke out in various areas of Yode City, which made the security team who maintained law and order instantly fall into a dilemma of insufficient manpower. As a last resort, the security forces had to turn to the city garrison.
In the city of Yod, the Paladin's station.
As night fell, the vast majority of paladins returned to camp except for a few paladins who were on night duty at the temple. However, since today is a demonic night, there is still a squad of paladins who have not rested and are on standby in the camp.
Inside the office, a paladin in armor and cloak stood at the window, watching the red rain outside.
On the couch in the office, the other fourteen paladins sat on the couch or on the floor in twos and threes, chatting, meditating, dazing, praying, dozing, maintaining weapons, and so on.
It's boring to be on call all night, so most people look a little sluggish.
"Ah......h ”
"If you're bored, I can play with you." A bear-like orc with black and white fur is sitting on the ground, sharpening his axe with a whetstone.
"Oh~ Forget it. It's so tiring to fight with you. The human paladin was lying on the couch like a dead fish, "I prefer to abuse vegetables rather than being abused." ”
The knight captain turned around and looked at his subordinates with different expressions below: "Pay attention to the image." If the security team comes in a while and sees you like this, what do you look like? ”
The knight laughed: "After this period of processing, all the unclean things in the city have been cleaned up, and there are still any monsters there." One or two in one night will be the sky! There are so many people in the security team, it won't be impossible to solve even one or two monsters, right? ”
As soon as the knight's words fell, there was a knock at the door.
"Knock knock~"
"Could it be that the supper is here?" A knight jumped up from the couch and hurried to open the door.
Outside the door was not a squire delivering supper, but a security guard soldier in a raincoat.
"Squad 7 of the Security Team, Orrick reports to the commanders!"
Looking at the soldiers of the security team, the knights looked confused. The expression on the knight's face that had just said, "There can't be a monster," was a little distorted.
The knight captain stood behind a desk in the office and looked at the soldier at the door: "Come in." ”
"Yes!" The vigilante soldier walked into the office.
Captain Knight: "Are the vigilantes in trouble?" ”
"Report to the sir, the number of monsters tonight is unusually large, and there are even monsters with a danger level of 'gold' among them."
"Gold-level monsters?" A paladin on the side had a puzzled look on his face, "Gold-level monsters don't just appear in a demonic night. The cursed items in the city have long been cleared, where are the gold-level monsters? ”
Soldier: "The captain suspects that someone is deliberately spreading demonized cursed items around the city. ”
"What!" The captain of the knights had a solemn expression on his face.
And at this moment, an explosion suddenly came from the direction of the temple outside the window!
"Boom! ~”
The captain of the knights looked out the window, and the expression on his face became solemn.
"Black and white bear, go to the dormitory and call everyone up and tell them to work overtime tonight!"
"Yes!" The black and white bear, who was tending to the axe, stood up from the ground, and its burly body three meters tall gave a strong sense of oppression.
Captain Knight: "Others, follow me to patrol the Labyrinth Temple!" ”
"What about us, sir?" The soldier of the security team hurriedly said, "There is a gold-level monster in the west of the city, if you don't deal with it, no one will be able to deal with it." ”
"We have to make sure that we don't have any problems with the maze first." The knight captain's expression was solemn, "If all this is man-made, then the Endless Labyrinth and the Main Temple are places where nothing can be done. Once we're sure there's nothing wrong with the labyrinth and the main shrine, we'll send people to support the other areas. ”
……
At this time, in the endless labyrinth. Because of the demonic night, the labyrinth is in an unstable state under the influence of the magic tides, giving people a feeling that the space is a little distorted, but the temple where Green is located does not have this phenomenon, and everything seems to be normal.
"The Earth Goddess Church advocates diligence and tolerance, personally, I appreciate the teachings of the Earth Goddess Church very much, and I am willing to get along with the Earth Goddess Church, but such teachings are not suitable for promotion in our country." Sitting in the gazebo, Green was discussing the topic of religious introduction with Mitchell.
Green's uncompromising attitude on religious issues made Mitchell feel a little unhappy: "Although I am a saint of the Earth Goddess Church, the church is not made up of me alone. If you completely reject the belief in the six gods, you will inevitably be hostile to the majority of believers. Although I have rejected the following request for 'jihad' several times, if I continue like this, sooner or later I will not be able to suppress it. ”
"On religious issues, we will not compromise. So on the topic of religious beliefs, let's stop here. Green stubbornly refused, "I love peace and am willing to cooperate with any force to achieve a win-win situation, but please also respect our beliefs." ”
Green will not compromise on religious matters! A good **** form of government, causing other religions is asking for trouble.
If the internal thinking is unified, even if a holy war breaks out with the Church of the Six Gods, you can find a way to resist; But if the internal thinking is not unified, once the Church of the Six Gods tears off its disguise and launches a holy war, the Mona Kingdom with inconsistent internal thinking may split before the war starts!
At this moment, Green suddenly felt a burning sensation on the back of his hand.
Lilith is dead.
Green's expression couldn't help but become solemn. Green arranged for Lilith the succubus to act as a guard outside, preventing herself from being surrounded by people without knowing it. Now that Lilith has been killed, that means ......
Green stared at the woman in front of him.
Mitchell looked indifferent, as if nothing had happened.
Feign! Feign! If it weren't for Green's manpower outside, I'm afraid he wouldn't know that the other party was deploying manpower to surround him.
"Are you looking for someone to surround me and assassinate me?" Green stared at Mitchell's expression.
Hearing Green's words, the expression on Mitchell's face changed slightly: "I don't quite understand what you're talking about. ”
"Well...... Green's eyes narrowed slightly, "then ask the person in the know." ”
Green tries to summon Lilith, but soon, Green notices something unusual. In this space, Lilith cannot be summoned!
There's an enchantment in this space? Green's face finally changed.
Green didn't hesitate to stand up and slammed a punch into Mitchell's face: "Space Collapse Punch!" ”
"The earth is with me." Mitchell held the emblem on her chest with both hands. In the next instant, Mitchell appeared at the door of the temple hundreds of meters away from Grimm.
The space collapse punch slammed into the air.
"Click! ~" With a soft sound, the space collapsed, but what appeared was not the starry sky, but the scenery outside the endless labyrinth.
Scarlet moonlight shone through the cracks into the labyrinth plane, causing the air in the labyrinth to ripple.
Green didn't bother to chase after Mitchell, and without hesitation, he rushed into the rift and escaped from the labyrinth plane.
Mitchell steadied herself and watched Green flee.
Outside the gate of the labyrinth, in the temple, a squad of paladins was checking around the temple after killing the succubus hiding in the corner.
"Double-check! There can't be just one demon here. ”
With holy lights on their heads and weapons in hand, the paladins murderously inspect every corner of the temple to make sure nothing is hidden inside the temple.
However, at this moment, a hole suddenly opened on the gate of the labyrinth, and a halo appeared on the gate of the labyrinth out of thin air. In the middle of the halo was a distorted space, inside was a gazebo and farmland full of melons and fruits, and a man and a woman rushed out of the pavilion inside the halo.
"Space magic?" The paladins watched in amazement as Green and Chikage suddenly appeared.
"Enemy attack!" The paladin at the head roared angrily and raised the hammer in his hand and threw it directly at the sudden appearance of Green and his party, "There are gangsters who want to destroy the labyrinth!" ”
The hammer, glowing with golden light, slammed into Green's face like a missile.
"Be careful!" Faced with the hammer that smashed over, Chikage grabbed Grimm's arm without hesitation and pulled Grimm aside.
The hammer glowing with golden light flew over and smashed directly into the aura of distorted space.
"Boom! ~”
Like a missile, the hammer smashed directly on the gazebo, and the gazebo in the space instantly turned into a pile of ruins.
"Master, go this way!" Chikage took Green and did not hesitate to break through in the direction of no one.
The paladins were stunned for a moment, but they also reacted, and chased after Grimm and his party with their weapons.
"The second group stays and guards the labyrinth!" After leaving a group of members to guard the labyrinth, the knight captain took the remaining nine team members and chased Green murderously and rushed out of the temple.
