Chapter 643: Who Did It?
The "Viper Cross" army in the city was quickly defeated by the army led by Rubens due to the withdrawal of the "Shadow Blade" and several elders, and was driven out and retreated. www.biquge.info Many of the soldiers who witnessed Roddy's terrifying lethality on the city wall were demoralized, and they all shouted the news that "the enemy chief is dead" to the bottom of the wall.
And just when they thought that Roddy would stop after Elvis flew away, they saw him turn around and suddenly run towards the city wall twenty meters away.
The short sword was inserted back into the scabbard, the keel bone bow was stepped over his shoulder, and after Luo Di approached the city wall, he "climbed and climbed" three steps up, seeing that he was only about to fall half the height of the city wall, but his hands seemed to be sticky as if he grabbed the city wall, and he continued to climb up - the enemy needed a ladder to climb the city wall for a few minutes to climb up, and it only took three seconds for Roddy to climb to the head under Roddy's "climbing" skill.
After climbing the city wall, he didn't pay attention to the soldiers around him, but stepped on the city wall to "snap" two steps and then started the "leap", and the whole person jumped out of the city!
The temple guards on the city wall looked confused, they couldn't understand why Roddy ran up the city wall and jumped down, but as soon as this thought came to their minds, they felt that there was a wind behind them—the swooping duck almost flew past the heads of these soldiers, and the violent air currents even blew down several city defense soldiers who were unstable in their center of gravity.
Roddy, who jumped up from the city wall, stretched out his hand, just grabbed the hind legs of the duck, flipped up with the help of his arm strength, skillfully climbed onto the saddle on his back, looked into the distance, locked on Elvis's figure and flew away!
By the time the soldiers on the city wall reacted, Roddy was already five hundred meters away. The high-ranking Da Duck first climbed more than 100 meters, and then began to sprint with all his might. Roddy sat in the saddle and was not in a hurry, poured the potion to restore the magic power and turned on the "awakening", and then unhurriedly began to create energy arrows...
It had only been three minutes between Roddy's sudden attack and his leap from the city wall, and the knights of the "Holy Cult" who were ready to run behind them did not understand what was happening, and some of them were still shouting garbled slogans. However, as soon as they approached the city gate, they saw Zach and the others running back with a ghostly expression on their faces - they asked loudly what was going on, but they only heard one message from these people:
Claude is dead!
Dean is dead!
Elvis escaped!
"What the hell is going on!?
But in the end, the answer they got was confusing - some said that an "invincible knight" killed several commanders one by one, some said that there were ambushed spies in the team to assassinate at the same time, and even more exaggeratedly, a terrifying monster appeared and devoured everyone alive... This kind of thing sounds ridiculous, but it is normal in this chaotic era of cold weapons. And the result caused by this also made the "Holy Sect Army" who had originally rushed over hesitate and slowed down.
When they saw the "Rosicrucian" soldiers fighting desperately on the walls of the "Temple" from afar, and the gates that were finally forcibly closed by Rubens and his people, no one could think of entering the city and plundering...
At this time, the sky was getting darker, and it was about to get dark. But at this time, the knights of the "Holy Cult Army" found that there was no one around them to give them any hints or leaders, and they looked around one by one, not knowing what to do when they connected - in order to fill their stomachs, they could only return to the nearest village to eat, but this retreat... I don't know how many people chose to leave quietly.
After all, the purpose of hiring knights to fight wars is to make money, and the owners are dead, so what are you doing here?
Inside the "Temple", Rubens, who had finally quelled the battle, did not rest at all, he walked in front with a serious face, followed by Benjamin and the Temple guards from the diocese of Bogdor, pushed open the bloodstained inner city gates, and stepped into the center of power that he had only left this morning...
The blood on the ground was not wiped at all, because the cultists and even the priests in charge of these things in the city had been killed in the daytime battles. Rubens could see the corpses on the side of the square, including three cardinals in red robes...
The eight cardinals who had been named by the Pope to be sent to the outer city survived, but they were all exhausted during the battle, and these old fellows wanted to follow, but were persuaded by Rubens's "kindness".
In short, when Rubens walked into the church, the first thing he saw was the remaining twelve cardinals who were described as embarrassed and badly wounded. Most of them were political enemies who had suppressed Rubens before, but at this time, they looked at him one by one, but they couldn't speak at all...
On the one hand, the "Temple" was almost lost because of the light enemy, and at this moment the inner city was full of soldiers brought by Benjamin, which was the fundamental reason why they did not dare to speak out.
Why did Rubens's troops come so strangely? Why did he suddenly leave before the enemy attacked, and the enemy came in and killed the world, but he "coincidentally" rushed into the city with so many troops?
It is not possible to take such an army from the diocese of Bogdor in two or three steps, and even if the bishop of Benjamin gives the order, it will be done at least three or five days in advance - but these doubts are no longer important, because the power struggle is always about the result, and no one cares about the process...
The so-called "process" does not matter if it is explained with any lame excuse after the dust has settled.
Because they all understand that the power structure of the "Rosicrucifix" will be completely changed from now on.
Rubens greeted them calmly, and then continued on his feet, all the way through the familiar hallway to the Pope's hut. The chamberlain who had spoken for him in the morning had been killed, and now only a priest with blood on his face was standing outside the house. When he saw Rubens, his lips trembled a little and he wanted to speak, but Rubens raised his hand to stop him.
"I'll look at His Majesty the Pope. ”
There was no longer any "communication", and Rubens pushed the door straight in, leaving behind the priest with a stiff face who wanted to stop him.
He knew that being a fool at such a time was the best option.
The badly injured Pope's face turned pale, but not so severe that he was bedridden. He sat in a modest armchair in front of the window, looked at Rubens with a dull gaze, and listened quietly as he briefly recounted the process of recovering the "Temple", without showing the slightest dissatisfaction with Rubens's entry without the words of his chamberlain.
"You mean....The two elders of the 'Viper Cross' were killed on the spot?
The Pope felt that things were more complicated than he thought, because he couldn't think of anyone who could kill the opposing commander and general in such a situation - but Rubens's answer made him breathless...
"It's the Prime Minister of the Efta Cabinet, Roddy. (To be continued.) )
