The petals covered the ground, the sun shone in the hall, and on both sides stood nobles and soldiers in splendid costumes, soldiers in armor, choir children sang songs, and Adenos entered the hall in full costume with the holy song and the eyes of the noble adults, and beside the throne in front of him, the saint Pete, dressed in a red robe embroidered with sun stripes, held a crown and waited for him.

The light was cast in front of Ardnos's footsteps, and as Ardnos stepped on the petals step by step, Ardenos's body was sprinkled with gold, full of divine majesty, but the corners of Ardnos's mouth couldn't help but curl up with a hint of mockery.

Amid the cheers, applause, and flattery, everyone seemed to fall into a carnival, as if Adenos was the king they expected, and Adenos ascended the high platform, bowed his head to the saint Pete, and kissed his palm.

Pete looked at Adenos with complicated eyes, chanted a prayer aloud, and finally gently placed the crown on Ardnos's head: "As Cardinal Cardinal of the Church of Light, in the name of God, I canonize Ardnos Monal as the king of the kingdom of Mara. ”

Wearing the crown and listening to the tsunami-like sound of the mountains below, Adenos sat on the throne, and the sun shone down with the high windows, crisscrossing the main hall, and the people in the hall looked at him with false smiles, making Adenos feel that his life was like a dream, and he was just playing an illusory game.

---------------

At this time, there was chaos outside the city, a large number of people continued to rush into the city of Babs, caravans, ships continued to pour into the city, there was a panic at the city gate, the bridge was constantly pushed and shrugged, from time to time you can see people falling into the water, they violently drove the camel beasts, and the goods were scattered and trampled on the ground.

Because there was a large number of cavalry shadows in the distance, it was not a cavalry team, the crowd of people and the silver armor in the sky reflected the light in the sun, so that people can clearly know that this is a large army of cavalry, scattered mightily, the army is approaching, everyone can not recognize the origin and belonging of these cavalry, what do you want to do here, but so many cavalry arrived in Babs City, it is definitely not to take a stroll, everyone panicked, and constantly crowded towards the city.

"Cavalry! It's cavalry! ”

"What's going on, how can there be an army here, this is the city of Babus, if the enemy army enters, why didn't the cities along the way sound the alarm?"

"Where the hell did they come from, and why is there no trace of them at all?"

"Don't get in the way, I'm going to go into the city, into the city!"

"Get out of the way, let me go in first, you pariahs, don't get in the way, I'm Baron Edri, get out of the way."

Under the noise and shouting, a farce was staged at the foot of the city gate, the gate was lowered, the drawbridge was pulled up, with the tall walls and moats, when the city of Babs was established, it took into account the situation of being besieged during the war, even if there were only thousands of city guards plus a thousand king's guards, even if the other party had 100,000 troops besieging the city, it was enough to hold on for more than a few months, and in less than half a month, the garrisons and lords of the Mara Kingdom were enough to gather a huge army to defeat the enemy.

Of course, without the support of the garrisons and nobles in various places, it is pointless to defend the city alone and hold on for a long time, and the royal family of the Mara Kingdom and the nobles from all over the world have also established the Mara Kingdom by virtue of such contracts and alliances, and they are in a situation of watching and helping each other in more sense.

"The enemy is attacking the city!"

"The army, the army, a lot of cavalry, it's going to be a battle!"

The army outside the city approached the city, but the alarm bell was unexpectedly not ringing, the soldiers boarded the city and waited solemnly, but the atmosphere was not that imminent and panicked, but the ordinary civilians in the city did not know, one by one panicked to rush home, the streets and alleys, the civilians and traders who were originally in the celebration of the festival, hurried home one by one.

In the midst of the pushing, people were constantly pushed to the ground, girls and women dressed in fancy clothes let out screams, clean and beautiful skirts were imprinted with footprints, and the hats or turbans on their heads disappeared with the continuous movement of the crowd.

"Urgent notice, no one is allowed to walk around the streets."

"Go home immediately, and you are not allowed to walk around the streets until you are notified, and the offenders will be arrested as rebels."

"Everyone go home at once, emergency notice ......"

The city guards also added fuel to the fire, and at this time they made an urgent sortie, as if they had been rehearsed a long time ago, and quickly dispersed to all parts of the city to evacuate the crowd, announcing that the city was beginning to prohibit movement, and the city guards began to march through the streets and alleys in groups, starting to act according to the predetermined position, and arranging every point in the city.

The fear of war is deeply engraved in the depths of everyone's heart, looking at the soldiers who are constantly passing through the city, the sound of shields and armor staggering, the staggered figures of people, and as the crack in the door passes into the house, you can see a pair of panicked eyes.

A soldier in the city was stationed at the main entrance and exit of an underground sewer, and many of the entrances and exits in the hidden corners have been sealed one after another in the past few days, and the rest are because they are related to the lives of the people in the city or because they are too big and the time is too short to be concealed.

As they sealed the hidden entrances and exits of the underground sewers little by little, patients infected with ghoul corpse poison were constantly gathered to observe and cure, and during this time, the number of missing cases in the city continued to decrease, and the monster murders that appeared in them did not happen for several days.

At the entrance to an underground sewer near the center of the city, near the central square, a large number of city guards surrounded the water, this is an important entrance to the underground waterway, and it is also a direct access to the central hub space, according to Edward's speculation and last exploration, this is the largest hiding place for ghouls, their lair.

According to the drawings of the Babs underground waterway, the entire underground waterway network is a real underground palace, and under their feet, at the bottom of the central square, there is a huge hollow, divided into several layers, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people to move freely in it, and these ghouls are constantly haunting the city of Babs with this complex and huge network of waterways, dragging a living person into it.

The huge sealing stone, using more than a dozen horses and dozens of people together, with tools and pulleys, took out the sealing stone that blocked the largest entrance, and a huge deep hole appeared below, the whole body was made of stones, the further down, the larger the space, you can see those ancient stone bricks and protruding stones surrounded by a circle of patterns.

Since the completion of Babs City, this huge underground cavern has never been opened, and at this moment, the long-lost light shines through the cavity, immediately alarming the monsters below, and a large number of roars are transmitted.

Hurried footsteps and climbing sounds came from below, accompanied by the sound of beasts, and a large number of dense roars kept coming towards this place, and it seemed that they were gathering here.

"The oil is poured, everyone is ready, everywhere is ready, not a single is allowed!"

The city guards were on standby, and no one had any intention of going down, nor did they intend to look down, and the wagons were dragging the canisters of fire oil down, and the oil flowed down the walls, causing many ghouls who were climbing out of the walls to slide down, or be drenched in the oil all over them.

Cartload after cart, a large amount of oil was poured down as if it didn't cost money, and a knight stood at the entrance of the cave with a torch and looked down, and at this time he had already seen the hideous faces of a large number of ghouls, roaring towards them, like four-legged monsters, climbing up frantically along the bulge of the wall, and his eyes flashed blood-red, and he wanted to devour them completely.

Below, more shadows flickering in the darkness, roaring and rushing upwards, and the moment the ghouls at the forefront rushed out of the darkness and appeared in the sunlight, the knight threw down the torches, and everyone lit the oil on the walls.

"Ignition."

The flames quickly ignited, and the flames spread rapidly down the stone wall, and soon the entire cave turned into a sea of fire, and the ghouls covered in fire oil were ignited at the same time as the clothes and hair on their bodies, turning into balls of fire, and falling down in a miserable wail.
