Chapter 208: Orcs Attack
The Southern Diocese, which belongs to the Holy See, does not refer to a single region or city, but covers several frontier towns.
The three cities, including the outpost of the Kingdom of Locke, the Salen Frontier City of the Duchy of Lottel, and the capital of the Duchy of Sadido, are all in the southern diocese's sphere of influence, and these three cities are also the most populous and concentrated towns, and there are also many villages located near the transportation arteries of the three cities.
The headquarters of the southern diocese is located in the Holy Light Castle, a hundred miles south of the capital of the Principality of Sadido.
The Holy See has six dioceses, including the southeast, northwest, southwest, southwest, and northeastern dioceses.
Each diocese is staffed by two cardinal archbishops, a total of 12 people.
The cardinal archbishops of the southern diocese are Lando and Lorenzo.
In addition to the two cardinal archbishops who have reached the level of Magister, there are dozens of Temple Paladins and Holy Light Priests stationed in the Temple.
In addition to these high-end combat forces, the Holy Light Guardian Army also has more than 400 people, including dozens of fighters who have mastered the fighting spirit, in addition, there are as many as 1,000 believers in the fort, responsible for daily supply and development of the downline, as well as brainwashing other villagers.
Nearly 2,000 people maintain the headquarters of the southern diocese, and are also responsible for dozens of small parishes and tens of thousands of faithful in the surrounding cities.
The Holy Light Castle, which was extremely prosperous in the past, was shrouded in a black fog at this time, and outside the walls of the Holy Light Castle that was thousands of meters long, there were hundreds of stumps and severed arms of the Holy Light Guardian Army.
The battlefield was filled with an eerie silence, and the lifeless corpses seemed to prove how tragic the battle had just been, in addition to the Holy Light Guardians, there were also some Beamon orc corpses with beast bodies or characteristics, but the number was very small, only dozens.
Not far from the main gate of the Holy Light Castle, a huge stone monument filled with the power of a shaman was erected.
The pitch-black stele is engraved with runes of the shamanic brilliance characteristic of Beamon, each representing an elemental power.
With the huge stone monument as the center, there is a shaman battle flag every nearly a kilometer, a full seven battle flags, and three shaman wizards stand in the middle of each battle flag, just surrounding the Holy Light Castle in a circle.
On the gate of the Holy Light Castle, the red-clothed Great Sect Master Lando was like a gambler with red eyes at this time, staring at the Beamon Legion hundreds of meters away from the city gate with blood-red eyes, and kept yelling: "Rush out, you must rush out of the blockade circle, these damn beasts, rush out and report to the Holy Mountain, you must warn the Holy Mountain, and let the Locke Border Army and the Second Legion of Lotel rush to support!! ”
Seeing the cardinal's gaze as if he was about to kill, the surrounding priests of the Holy Light Department secretly took two steps back, fearing that Lando would let him die again, and at this time, walking out of the Holy Light Castle would definitely be ten deaths.
Just now, the three Holy Light priests were helpless, ready to join forces to break through the elemental blockade of the Beamon Legion and try to restart the portal, who knew that Beamon's side had already prepared, and the three Holy Light priests who had just stepped into the portal were directly teleported to the center of the Beamon Legion's assembly place, and were hacked to death on the spot.
This group of Beamon shamans is very vicious, not only sealing the nearby magic elements, but also forcibly changing the magic coordinates to their military camp, and the three unlucky ghosts just entered the teleportation array, and the next second they were hacked to death with a knife.
The teleportation array was two-way, and everyone in the Holy Light Castle was terrified that the teleportation array in the temple would rush out of a large group of Beamon orcs, so they had no choice but to close the teleportation array.
Ronningt, the chief temple paladin of the southern diocese, hurriedly walked to Lando's side, shook his head and said, "Beamon gave up attacking the main city gate and switched to attacking the two side gates in the southwest, where the defense is weak and is about to be unable to hold it. ”
Lando clenched his fists, looked at a mangled corpse not far away, and finally sighed.
Lonningt followed his gaze and was filled with emotion for a moment.
That corpse was another cardinal archbishop, who had also cultivated to reach the Holy Light Magister Archbishop Murphy.
Thinking back to what happened last night, Lonnett still feels like a dream.
Everything happened too fast, too fast, without warning, without warning.
The people of the Holy Light Castle, which had fallen into the darkness of the night, had already fallen asleep, but who knew that suddenly, a huge shamanic power suddenly appeared from outside the Holy Light Castle, and then one after another teleportation gates appeared out of thin air.
One by one, the shamans walked out of the portal, and before everyone in the Holy Light Castle could react, dozens of shamans joined forces to cast spells to fix all the magical elements in the Holy Light Castle in the space.
By the time everyone reacted, the Holy Light Castle had become an isolated city, and the portal had lost elemental contact with the Holy Mountain and several other dioceses.
Immediately after that, out of the teleportation gate, a group of Beamon orcs, Pigs, Bell Bears, and the Lion and Tiger Guards surrounding the Beamon Imperial City, etc., are all the main battle races of the Beamon Orcs, and there are also some Harpies soaring in the air to investigate the situation.
These powerful Beamon warriors, from the moment they stepped out of the portal, began to charge towards the main gate of the Holy Light Castle.
In a panic, the two archbishops ordered the Guardians of the Light to respond to the enemy, but unfortunately one came prepared, and the other hurriedly responded to the enemy in a panic.
One is the body of a beast, and the other is the body of a human race.
After most of the night's fighting, the Holy Light Guardians were wiped out.
If it weren't for Archbishop Murphy leading the Temple Paladins to support in time, perhaps the main city gate would have been breached by the Lion and Tiger Praetorian Guards, after all, most of the Holy Light Castle except for the Temple Paladins were some godly disciples who were powerless.
Even so, Archbishop Murphy was surrounded by the Tyrant Guard, and eventually died of his wounds.
For some reason, the Beamon orcs did not expand their results, and seeing that the Temple Paladins under the command of Lonningt were about to be wiped out, the Lion and Tiger Praetorian Guard actually began to retreat, but they still scattered the major legions and surrounded the Holy Light Castle.
The portal was closed, the griffin knight could not fly out of the siege network of the Beamon orcs, and most of the priests of the Holy Light system were damaged, and now the Holy Light Castle was completely an isolated city, and it was only a matter of time before it was breached.
"Damn! Damn it! Lando didn't seem to be able to suffer such a blow, and scolded incoherently: "These damned beasts, and those damned barbarians, all deserve to die." ”
Lonnett shook his head and smiled wryly, knowing what Lando meant.
But no, the southern diocese, which has countless elites, should not have been so passive or even defeated.
If it weren't for the Bloodhoof Tribe's battle, which resulted in heavy losses in the southern diocese, the Holy Light Castle would not have been in such a mess.
In addition to the battle of the Bloodhoof Tribe, counting the fingers and counting, there were three high-level magicians who died at the hands of the Bloodhoof Tribe, as well as a magician and a magician.
Not to mention the Holy Light Priest who has cultivated to reach the level of a high-level magician, at least ten of them have broken their legs to the Bloodhoof Chieftain, and they are all still lying on their stomachs on the bed.
And the Iron Cavalry Legion, which is closest to the southern diocese and is stationed here, has long since made the Bloodhoof Tribe lose its number, and the Iron Cavalry Legion has now become history, not to mention the legion commander Sokas who has returned to the arms of the Holy Father, the most elite Holy Armored Crossbow Squad has long been disrupted and sent to other small dioceses, none of the fighting warriors in the Iron Cavalry Legion have come back alive from the Great Wasteland, and the other infantrymen who surrendered and did not suffer much injuries were also the most basic infantrymen, who were stripped of their armor and weapons, It's basically the same as an ordinary person.
And the three ascetics with the highest cultivation in the legion were two dead and one disabled.
Looking at Beamon's army hundreds of meters away, Lonningt suddenly regretted his crusade against the Bloodhoof camp.
The barbarians of the Bloodhoof tribe have not reached any point of deep enmity with the Holy See in any case.
There are less than 100,000 people in the Great Wilderness, and the poor are all superb.
At the beginning, Lando didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and when he heard the ascetic say that since the barbarians had cultivated their fighting spirit, they directly led all the elites to rush to help.
As soon as he passed, he was beaten by a large group of giants and the Dark Wizard led by the Bloodhoof Chieftain and couldn't find the north.
Although the barbarians live in the great wilderness and do not believe in the Holy Father, at least they are still human, and there is nothing unfathomable about being at peace with the human race for hundreds of years, and if you take 10,000 steps back, the barbarians also belong to the human race, but the barbarians themselves do not recognize it.
Secondly, let's talk about the undead archesis Conslet, no matter how people say it, they were also born in the Holy See, and they were also excluded by the previous generation of popes at that time, and they didn't do anything angry and resentful, but they just practiced dark magic, and they didn't eat your rice or steal your eggs, and they shouted and killed people every day.
Remembering that Constant's fart summoned two god-name weapons in a big effort, Lonningt is still a little behind, and sometimes he doesn't dare to sleep soundly at night, for fear that one day people will take advantage of the dark moon and high wind, and directly make hundreds of undead skeletons to be slaughtered in the Holy Light Castle.
Looking at Lando's mad dog-like face, Ronning secretly felt to himself: You don't weigh yourself a few pounds and a few taels, the undead great demon guide was not ready to meddle in the Great Wasteland at the beginning, if it weren't for your self-defeating blind coercion and hatred, can people directly shoot you with a god-name weapon, you are really a cheap mother, now it's okay, completely push such an extreme powerhouse to the opposite side.
It wasn't that Ronningt could have such thoughts, not that he wasn't religious enough to the Holy Father or that his faith was shaken, but that the barbarians, the Bloodhoof camp, or the Great Demon Guide of the Undead, after all, they all looked up and didn't look down with the Terrans, so they were neighbors.
But the Beamon orcs are different, they are behemoths that dominate the continent north of St. Cassis, even if the population base is not as good as that of humans, but the people are united, unlike the Holy See, although it is the first force in the continent, but after all, it cannot directly command dozens of human countries like a plate of scattered sand.
Everyone is on guard against each other, and there is no way to share the same hatred.
Well, now, the Beamon beast tribe's large-scale invasion of the southern diocese is probably the first horn of the Third World War, but the first unlucky ones are the southern dioceses instead of the barbarians.
In the past, thousands of years ago, the Bhamon orcs still set foot on the Great Wasteland first, and the barbarians were beaten first, which happened to prepare time for the human race and coordinate the battle deployment.
Well, now that people have crossed the Great Wilderness directly, they have also started to play with high technology.
