Chapter 75: The Siege
The Holy Shield City was filled with gunsmoke at this time, and they had just repelled an attack by the Dark Curia by summoning shadow creatures to attack the city.
There was still a smell of gunsmoke and blood in the night, and there were suppressed cries in some places from time to time.
Butler, as the lord of the city, was sinking like water at this time.
Bartley looked at his brother's expression and sighed in his heart: "Brother, look away." We've done our best, these vile people of the Dark Church. If it weren't for the cooperation of the nobles in the city who were confused by their brains, how could such a tragedy happen. He comforted Butler.
Butler shook his head: "There is no other them and there is another them. And this is not aimed at our Holy Shield City alone, I'm afraid that the cities in the nearby area are in chaos. He sighed, and at the same time his words changed: "Did the attack start to pass on what happened here to the people of the Church of Light?" β
"Passed it on." Bartley nodded: "That Holy Favor is probably not coming, not to mention, thanks to him not coming." We've got all the chapels hereβ" he smiled bitterly.
"It was our negligence, and it is not surprising that they chose to attack the church in the first place." Butler, as the lord of the city, sighed softly.
The Holy Shield City has always been good at defending and lacking attack, and the shield guards and warriors, and the priests and doctors have almost made the defense of a small city with a population of only a few hundred thousand comparable to the defense of a large city with an eighth-level professional garrison.
Or maybe it was so stable that they all made such a fatal oversight, but now they regret it. It's too late.
The two looked at the night sky worriedly. Without the quick recovery treatment of the priest, it is almost equivalent to breaking an arm. Even if someone with a physician sequence can support it, the fact that the physician can't achieve the effect of instantly resurrecting the dead also means that the option of quickly recovering combat strength has been erased from the Holy Shield City.
At this moment a commotion came from the city, and shouts and fires were heard again.
"Looks like there's a hidden shadow creature." Butler stood up and prepared to take the lead, but his brother stopped him.
Bartley shook his head: "You are our last barrier, don't waste your energy, just let me go." So saying, he hurried over,
Butler sat down silently.
............
"This is the church, right?" Shadow walked out of the secret room at this time, only to find that it was all destroyed buildings, and he looked confused.
"It's obvious." Berial spoke at this point.
Shadow stared blankly in his heart: "Yo, ma'am, can you speak now?" "If it weren't for the 'guilty perception' left by the Book of Guilt, the existence of shadow creatures would have overturned. So Shadow began to fight back in accordance with the "friendly and harmonious exchange".
"Asleep." In the mental fluctuations of the film's contempt, Berial didn't even bother to make up excuses.
The shadow smiled in his heart, but he didn't take it to heart, which means that Berial, the arrogant angel lady, still has enough "motivation".
Life is so wonderful.
"What kind of attack has Aegis City encountered? Even the church was completely destroyed. Shadow pondered, and a bad thought appeared in her heart.
At the same time, a scream pierced the night sky.
"It's those monsters!"
"Run!"
"Don't come, don't come!"
Several humanoid creatures identical to the previous one fell on the innocent and bit at them, they could only let out a bitter wail but could not do anything, and the silent night sky was filled with chaos at this time.
Shadow didn't think about it, and in either case, he didn't have a reason to let these creatures run wild.
"Holy Light Technique..."
"Holy Light Technique!"
One after another holy light spells accurately hit the shadow creatures, and the shadow also understood that this creature is not strong in attack, but the speed of movement is not high, but the alertness to danger itself is not high, and most of the time these monsters do not hunt by sight.
In other words, if you keep a certain distance or if the monster doesn't find a shadow, it's like a live target.
When the Light Technique was thrown at the shadow creatures, they let out a piercing scream, like a scream.
Shadow kicks away the shadow creatures that have fallen on the townspeople, causing the flames of light to burn on their own.
He glanced at the person who was already out of breath and out of breath and out of breath in a pool of blood, and shook his head: "It's hopeless." Shadow sighed, if he had the strength of Archbishop Joseph, he might be able to save it, but this fatal wound and the blood loss was too much to do about it.
And this scene is a little weird.
The panicked citizens found that the originally terrible monster was killed by a priest in an instant, and he stood next to the person who was about to die, bowed his head, shook his head, sighed, and muttered to himself, inexplicably feeling that this person seemed to be a little more terrifying than the monster...
Seeing the panicked looks of the people, their shoulders moved slightly, and when they were about to go to find someone to ask about the specific situation, they found that a person in the distance quickly arrived.
"What a speed!" Shadow's heart was surprised, and in the darkness of the night, only a vague outline could be seen in the distance, but it did not prevent the man from approaching quickly in a few jumps on the house.
Dalton was in a hurry at this time, this area of the Holy Shield City was originally maintained by the people of the Church of Light, but after all the people of the church were attacked and killed, it was empty.
Coupled with the repeated siege of the shadow creatures summoned by those people of the Dark Church, the security in the city has been extremely empty, and the area in charge of the Church of Light has not yet arranged for someone to be responsible for maintenance.
Who would have thought that there were still those damn shadow creatures lurking here! When Dalton relied on his professional advantage to arrive at a blistering speed. only to find that the place that was already bloody did not happen at this time.
There were only three shadow creatures that had fallen to the ground, burned by the flames, and the dead and wounded citizens, and...
A teenager in a priest's robe! He wondered in his heart, hadn't all the church personnel been wiped out, where did this person come from?
Dalton's last one stood like a cat on a building where the incident occurred, and his pupils narrowed with his excellent eyesight: "Arbitrator? Then he took a closer look and revealed disbelief: "Priest-level arbitrator members?!" His mind was disconnected.
Shadow looked up at the man, his expression was also in sight, and he lifted his breath and said, "I am a special priest from St. Peter's Basilica, and I came from the teleportation array, but I immediately found that there was a shadow creature here, and I killed it. Ying paused: "For special reasons, I wonder if I can get the clergy of the Light Church in the Holy Shield City to contact me?" Ying said tentatively, wanting to confirm the specific situation here.
Hearing Shadow's words, Dalton's face was strange: "St. Peter's Basilica in the Seventh Province? β
"Yes"
Dalton's expression became even more weird: "You just arrived?" β
"That's right." Ying frowned slightly, as if some of his bad premonitions were about to come true.
Dalton's thoughts came to him, but he suppressed his thoughts first, and said in a heavy tone: "The personnel of the Church of Light stationed here have all died in their duties. He was silent for a moment: "It's here that they all died." Including the only bishop. β
Shadow's face was stunned.
The heart is under the groove.
