Chapter 187: Indiscriminate Killing of Innocents

In fact, Allen's speculation is completely correct, in order to use the horse bandits as an excuse to prevent the saint from leaving, Bishop Dennis has not taken the matter of arresting the horse bandits to heart, and even once prevented the head of the guard Dejero from rescuing Lawson and others, but by mistake, the saint still left Lua City, so there is no need to continue to retain the existence of these so-called horse bandits, it is time to close the net, so as to show the strength of the Lua Church to control the situation. However, the real horse bandits have long disappeared and even the shadow is gone, and Bishop Dennis doesn't want to spend too much effort to search for them, that should be General Camp and General Stephen, all he has to do is to give an explanation to the believers, so just catch a few stand-ins to mean it, but the identity of this stand-in can not be too low, it is difficult to convince the public to get a few street beggars, just in time to catch up with the destruction of the Statue of the Bright Gods, in the course of the investigation, Viscount Benne, who had appeared in the square that day, entered the sight of the investigation team, which made Bishop Dennis moved, using this little nobleman to memorize two things at the same time is simply a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. So he took the opportunity to call the lord of Lua City and General Camp to investigate the background of Viscount Benn.

The city lord told Bishop Dennis that although the Benn family was a hereditary nobleman, the family had long since declined, and even if he was executed immediately, there was no adverse effect except for making other nobles feel sad and sad, but General Camp told Bishop Dennis an important news, although Viscount Benn's influence was limited, his wife's maiden family was a very high-status family in the Higg Empire, especially in the military. General Camp thought that his news would embarrass Bishop Dennis, but Bishop Dennis only frowned and thought for a moment, and then did not be surprised, and arranged for the newly arrived head of the guard to take charge of the matter himself.

It was against this background that Simmons, the new head of the guard, came to Viscount Ben's manor with orders from three parties, and prepared to arrest the Viscount with arrogance.

Viscount Benn trembled and picked up the two parchment rolls that Simmons had thrown at him, his face became more and more pale, and his hands trembled more and more, and finally, before he could see it, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his eyes closed, and the whole person fell backwards, and his wife and servants hurriedly pounced on him to hold him, only to find that he had fainted.

"Take it!"

Simmons looked at everything that was happening in front of him, not surprised at all, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he commanded coldly. As the words fell, a group of guards from the Holy See had already swarmed up.

"Blasting them out, this is our home, who allowed you to go wild here!"

Several guards stepped forward indiscriminately, kicked away a few of the guards blocking the road, and then forced the lady and children to one place with their long swords. The Viscountess held her unconscious husband in her arms, and her young son stood up and shouted to the guards next to her.

"No one can lift a finger of His Excellency the Viscount. ”

Seeing that his master was humiliated, the captain of the guard of Viscount Benn stepped forward and stopped in front of the church guards with several guards.

"Church law enforcement, those who dare to resist, will be killed!"

Simmons continued to give cold orders.

"Whoosh!ahh

A bowstring twitch was accompanied by a scream, and the captain of the viscount's guard stepped forward to block it with his sword, and the two sides fought for two rounds, and suddenly an arrow flew from behind and hit him in the neck, and the force of the arrow was so great that the whole arrow was almost completely shot in, and the cluster of arrows penetrated his neck and came out from behind, and the blood flowed down the shaft of the arrow, and finally slipped to the ground along the three-sided notch of the arrow cluster.

"Gollum!"

The captain of the clan guard who fell to the ground convulsed, his face turned purple, and a strange sound came out of his throat, as if he was gasping for breath, but it turned out to be blood.

"Those who dare to obstruct the Church's law enforcement will be punished on the spot. ”

The family guards who had already come up to protect their masters, saw the leading captain being shot by the church's crossbowmen in one shot, and they immediately trembled with fear, although they had the responsibility of protecting the head of the family, but after all, their own lives were more important, and the key was that they did not have the strength to challenge the church's guards at all. Viscount Ben's children were even more frightened, but they were even more powerless to resist, so they could only hug their mother and weep.

"Put down your sword and don't rebel in vain, for all rebellion on the surface of God is only adding to your own sin. ”

Simmons is issuing the last wanted warrant.

"Dang!"

Finally, one of the family guards threw down his sword in front of the murderous church guards, giving up useless resistance, and the others followed suit, and the church guards took the opportunity to kill the unconscious Viscount Benn and his family.

"Killing innocents, is that what Bishop Dennis usually teaches you?"

Just when the people of the Benn family gave up their resistance and were about to be left to the disposal of the church guards, suddenly a woman's beautiful voice sounded, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone followed the voice, only to see a girl in a white robe with an angry face walking out of the small building.

The appearance of the girl surprised the people of the Benn family, they did not understand why this woman had such courage to wade through this troubled water, but the temperament exuded by the girl at this time made them not question, but obediently made way for the girl, let her go all the way to the front of the Holy See guards.

"Who are you?"

Simmons was also very surprised, he looked at the girl, and then turned his head to look at the ladies on the other side, as if to confirm whether the girl's identity was Earl Ben's family, so he asked.

"It doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is your identity, as the head of the Holy See's escort group stationed in the church in Lua City, your duty is to protect the safety of the church in Lua City, how did you come here to do anything?"

The girl ignored the knight's answer, and asked angrily.

"Viscount Benn and his family intend to be detrimental to the Church and are suspected of threatening the safety of the Church, and of course the Church's Guardians have the power to do so. ”

The girl's words made Simmons realize that the girl's identity was not simple, otherwise it would be impossible to be so clear about the affairs of the church, but he did not avoid the question, but replied confidently.

"Is there any evidence that Viscount Benn intended to be detrimental to the church?"

The girl who came out was hiding behind the door with Eren to observe the situation, and she was also shocked to hear that the statue of the gods of light, which had just been built in the central square of Lua, had been destroyed. She had seen the idols, knew its scale and beauty, and knew its symbolism. The fact that the idol group was able to be destroyed during the celebration is also amazing, and there may be some secret hidden behind it, if it was really Viscount Ben En who did it, then no one could save him. But the real person responsible for this incident is Allen, and he has confessed to the girl. Now seeing what the Holy See Guard Corps has done, it is clear that it is deliberately framing and killing innocents in order to find a scapegoat, the girl is so angry that her beautiful eyes are wide and her delicate body trembles, especially when she sees the crossbowmen of the church shooting the captain of the Benn family in public, she can no longer bear it, and she doesn't even say hello to Allen, so she rushes out and prepares to do justice for Viscount Benn.
