"The queen has ordered no killing! Don't kill! These humans are all slaves of the Empire! "A reptilian herald with long tentacles, six arthropods running wildly across the rooftop.

One of its clustered eyepillars glanced down at random, then continued unconcernedly.

Underneath the house, a reptile with a huge mouth on half of its body hurriedly swallowed half of the human corpse in its mouth and ducked into the shadows......

The reptilian soldiers poured into the city like a tidal wave, with their strange appearances, slender knuckles and bristles, like monsters crawling out of the deepest nightmare! They smashed open the courtyard doors, broke into the house, and frantically plundered everything they had never seen before. And citizens who have never been on the city wall will even be frightened into a coma when they see this disgusting and terrifying creature for the first time!

The walls had fallen and Nasher was nowhere to be found, but some had not given up, and small forces of resistance were everywhere.

Crawles crowded the main thoroughfare connecting Neverwinter to several gates, slowly advancing towards the center of the city. And the follow-up soldiers can't wait to start the raid, and the reptilian soldiers who eat people and kill abound, but unless it is too serious, the commander of the reptile chooses to turn a blind eye.

The temporarily safe Neverwinter is also threatened to stay at home! But this is not necessarily lucky, just listen to the roar of those bugs, and you know that the future that awaits them is to become slaves completely!

People are almost desperate, Erebes, Waterdeep, the gods...... People don't know who to expect or who to pray to......

However, at this time, the small Heim Church, located on the edge of the central area of the city, suddenly emitted a faint white light from the inside out!

Although the light is not strong, it is especially conspicuous under the dark sky with rain, and some people have already seen it.

Although the church is still there, the Heim church has effectively abandoned it because of the events of the last time. And before the outbreak of the Great War, all the priests and paladins were evacuated, and there was nothing left except for a believer who insisted on cleaning.

So when the white light came on, only the praying believer in the church noticed it!

"Thank you, my lord Heim! Thank you! He got up from the ground in ecstasy, tears streaming down his face! The Old Believer stumbled to find the key, opened the portal to the bell tower, and rushed inside.

A few minutes later, "When—When—", the long chime echoed over Neverwinter.

"It's a sacred refuge! It's Heim! Thank you, Heim, for your greatness! Countless people dragged their families out of the house and ran with all their strength in the direction of Heim Church.

"Damn it!" Hearing the bell, the reptile queen jumped up from her throne and began to curse and smash everything in the room frantically! But she didn't dare to do anything, not even mention the divine name!

"Order them to speed up! Block all the entrances and exits of the church in advance! ”

The Holy Refuge is one of the rules of war in Faeron and many of the world.

When the Holy Sanctuary is opened, anyone who enters the Holy Sanctuary, whether believers or not, can accept the protection of this God! If you don't want to accept this rule and have to enter the Holy Sanctuary, you're at war with that god!

Heim even took the initiative to open the shelter, and the meaning was very clear - "Lao Tzu just can't look down on you ugly worm, and he won't accept the declaration of war!" ”

Queen of the Reptiles,......

Helpless, endure!

"Is it only Haim?"

"Only Heim."

*****

"When—when—"

The sound of the bell is the call of life.

By this time, everyone knew that the fall of the city was inevitable.

"Heim! Heim! "Countless people poured towards the Helm Church.

However, the area of the Heim Church is not large, and there are a large number of statues and sculptures inside, so the space is very limited. Although the sweepers opened all the doors of the church and the storehouse, only a few hundred people were finally squeezed in.

This is because the people who initially entered the church carried a lot of luggage and took up too much space. They had no ill intentions per se, but by the time people realized they should throw them out, the church was already crowded with no place to stand. In the end, even at the outermost part of the temple, there were people who had taken refuge on tiptoe against the wall, shrinking themselves into the white light as much as possible.

"Alright, Haim, show some more of your mercy." "Please, just send my baby in, she's still young, please!" "Heim ......"

Shouts and cries rang out in unison, and the crowd huddled beyond the white light prayed and called for Heim's name in despair. Some choose to leave, and many more are looking forward to greater miracles.

However, those ugly deeds did not appear here, the vast majority of people knew what kind of god Haim was, and the few who didn't know would be killed by the white light the moment they were evil thoughts!

But as the army of reptiles poured in this direction, the crowd became more and more desperate, and the number of people who became vicious out of despair was destined to increase......

At this moment, inside and outside the Temple of Heim, it is as if the faces of all beings condensed for thousands of years.

A half-grown child cowering in a corner, with a sword and shield in his arms, and a completely ill-fitting armor, was silently watching it all with wide eyes.

"Child, don't be afraid, child......" The middle-aged man next to him was obviously afraid of changing his voice, but he took the initiative to comfort the child. This armor, have they already started to put their children on the battlefield? The middle-aged man said indignantly. The middle-aged man had a new wound wrapped in a haphazard face and a spear in his hand, presumably one of the last survivors of the militia to be sent to the city walls.

"Father's, he died in battle." The child said.

"What about Mom?"

"It's also ......"

"I'm sorry, kid." The middle-aged man said apologetically, "They are brave warriors, they must be much braver than me...... I'm a runaway coward. He said self-deprecatingly. But we lost, but we weren't defeated. Trust me, because we still have Lord Erebes, Waterdeep, and Heim! Sooner or later, we'll be able to take home the garden! ”

The half-grown child did not speak, but his eyes turned to the statue of Heim, which stood in the middle of the temple and was half as tall as everyone else, and his gaze was reverent.

The shield he was holding in his arms, coated with a mess of grease on the surface, looked like an inferior shield. In fact, under the grease cover, there is a red dragon engraved vividly.

*****

When the bell rang in the Temple of Heim, the prayers in the Great Temple of Tyre stopped abruptly for a moment...... It's as quiet as death.

All church bells rang slightly, and these clergymen knew it was Haim's as soon as they heard it - when the bell rang, it meant that Haim was the first to open the Holy Sanctuary! They all knew that Heim had withdrawn from Neverwinter due to the events of the fake Priest Deszel and the posthumous Van Swijk, and that there was not a single member of the Church in the Assassin Church...... But the church has opened the Holy Sanctuary!

In contrast, all the remnants of the Church of Tyre, led by Archbishop Linton, had knelt in front of the statue of Tyre and prayed for a day and a night, but Tyre did not respond...... Our lord probably hates us and the city to the extreme, and wants to see them all destroyed.

But at this moment, Archbishop Linton, who was kneeling at the forefront, suddenly stood up, and looked so abrupt among the dozen or so people kneeling on the ground.

"Your Excellency, don't!" The priest kneeling behind him lunged forward, hugging his shin and pleading. Although Archbishop Linton has taken the wrong path in major matters, he is usually really kind to the people below him, and no one does not love him.

Archbishop Linton shook his head silently, pulled his leg out of the man's embrace, and stepped forward.

A dozen people behind him looked at his back in horror or shock, forgetting to continue praying, or even forgetting to stand up......

One step at a time, Archbishop Linton was already kneeling closest to the idol, and he only needed two steps to walk in front of the idol. "My lord, forgive me for being willful." Archbishop Linton was very affectionate with God, and he could clearly feel Tyr's anger at him for his disobedience again!

But when he had finished speaking, he did not hesitate to press his hand on the idol - a slight blasphemy......

Like every church, the statue on the central axis of the hall on the first floor is the hub of a temple and is not controlled by the gods alone. So when Archbishop Linton pressed his hand on it and poured his lifelong storage of holy power into it, there was an immediate reaction on the idol, and a bright white light glowed on its surface.

When the white light filled the idol, it began to spread to the left and right. White light infects the ground, infects the walls, infects the roof...... Eventually, the entire Great Temple of Tyre, like the Temple of Heim, became a glowing body on a rainy day!

"O great Tyr! Thank you for your protection! ”

The crowd who discovered this scene all let out a cry of surprise, and the ecstasy of salvation came like a tide. As the largest temple in the Northlands, the Great Temple of Tyre will hold a hundred times the number of people in the Temple of Heim!

Archbishop Linton turned to the pastor who had just hugged him and said, "I'll leave it to you to preside." Arrange for people to ring the bell, organize the order of refuge, don't let the people who come in bring too many things, it is better to bring only food......"

Archbishop Linton babbled on and on.

"Your Excellency, why!" The priest asked, choking up and interrupting Archbishop Linton.

He burst into tears as Archbishop Linton's body shattered little by little from his feet into a glowing white light.

This is a sacrifice of life, and Archbishop Linton is using his life to transform it into holy power to maintain the splendor of the church. But in this case, his soul will be dissipated when he dies! He's a legend!

Death, however, is the real end for him, not the beginning of another journey......

Linton sighed, then laughed again, finally letting go of everything.

"Because, I'm sorry for this city."

*****

"Tyr! Tyr! You said you would approve of me erasing it all! "The reptile queen is so angry that she wants to crush her fangs!

……

However, with Haim and Tyr taking the lead, all the temples of order or goodness in Neverwinter lit up one after the other. All the temples were opening their doors to accommodate the influx of refugees, and by the way, they were standing opposite the invaders.

The white light that rose from the temple was like rows of pillars leading to heaven.
