In the silence of the night, the entire inhabitants of the Lion King Capital were asleep. The streets were quiet and empty. Only ghosts that are invisible to ordinary people are wandering.

There are only two knights of the Knights of the Silver Moon standing in front of the doors of Pierce Cathedral. In fact, there are only two guards in the entire Pierce Cathedral. There are only a hundred knights in the Silver Moon Knights, and they are sprinkled in the entire Lion King Capital, just like grabbing a handful of sand and throwing it into the sea, which is pitiful.

Gray rode his horse all the way through the empty streets, all the way to the front of Pierce Cathedral, and even went straight up the steps to the platform.

The two knights of the Silver Moon Knights who acted as guards were stunned.

Dismounted, Gray immediately said, "Gather everyone, and in an hour I have a great decree to announce." ”

"Everyone?"

"I mean, everyone in the entire Lion King Capital. ”

"Paladin-sama...... It's midnight. Everyone is sleeping. ”

"Wake them up, then!" replied Gray without thinking.

The two knights of the Silver Moon Knights were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly tapped their breastplates heavily and replied, "Yes!"

......

The bells of Pierce Cathedral rang.

The knights of the Knights of the Silver Moon galloped through the streets, shouting, "Assemble everyone! Assemble everyone! Assemble all at the gates of Pierce Cathedral! Paladins summon everyone! An important decree has been announced!"

"What is this for?"

"...... in the middle of the night"

"Can there be enough people in front of the Pierce Cathedral to stand in front of the entire Lion King's Capital?"

The residents of the Lion King Capital, who were sleeping in a daze, were talking.

Even the author, who stayed up late to write a novel and was just about to go to bed, pushed open the window: "Tut-tut, this paladin has a lot to do." But forget it, forgive him for his sake of making my book sell well. ”

......

Andrew gently opened the curtain through a gap, looked at the knights of the Knights of the Silver Moon galloping past the door, and with a flick of his hand, a ray of green light popped out and hit the ghost who had just floated into the room next to him. In an instant, the ghost dissipated.

However, none of the others could see the ghost, so no one knew what he had done.

"Is there anything going on with everyone gathering so late? Can't we wait until tomorrow morning to issue the decree?"

Shelley behind him sat on the sofa, covering his chest with his hands, looking uncomfortable: "What did you give me to drink, and who are you?"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. If I want to kill you, I have an easier way. There is no need to waste precious potions. As he spoke, Andrew drew a pattern in the air with his fingers. Shelley's eyes immediately darkened and she fainted.

"Let's go, let's wait to see the show. ”

With that, Andrew prepared to open the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the balcony.

At this moment, there was a sound of iron armor crashing, and he quickly retracted his hand. Hold one's breath.

Three members of the Knights of the Silver Moon had already arrived downstairs.

"Count Grugru!" they knocked on the door and shouted, "Count Grugru, sorry to disturb you so late! We ask you and Miss Shelley to make a trip to Pierce's Cathedral at once on the orders of the Paladin. ”

Immediately afterwards, the sound of the servant in the mansion opening the door.

"It's a bit of a hassle. Andrew said coldly.

The three mercenaries behind him looked at each other and hurriedly showed their weapons.

......

"Are you crazy? you're going to end all decrees?" Irene looked at Gray dumbfounded.

"Yes, immediate termination. The new decree has already had bad results, and it's my fault. I shouldn't be so aggressive. Gray suddenly remembered the painting in the church, which showed the burnt saint - Abselde. He is also radical.

Probably this is a common problem of all fanatics. The fanaticism for the sacred faith makes them ignore the ugliness of human nature.

"Have you thought about the consequences of doing this?" Irene said helplessly, holding her forehead, "You will let your reputation fall to the bottom." If you have not given them such good governance, it is enough, and if you give it, you have to take it back...... Do you think they'll accept it?"

"Whether they can accept it or not, I have to do it. It was a mistake I made and I had to make amends. ”

"But...... In doing so, you will lose the support of the people, and you will lose the upper hand in the struggle with the Holy See. Have you ever thought about this?"

Gray was stunned for a moment, then said, "You're right, but I don't think I should deceive them if I really didn't do a good job, and then get the so-called support." Irene that winning or losing doesn't matter that much. I'll do my best to pursue what I believe in, but if I'm really wrong, I should be allowed to lose. Instead of using bad means to steal a victory that shouldn't belong to me. ”

"Beautifully said. Vivien whispered, "What do you think? Hypocritical Miss Angel." ”

"Do you think you're going to win? You won't. In any case, Gray is unlikely to go in the direction you want. Even if we have an argument, it is on the basis of how to achieve the divine faith, and it has nothing to do with your dark faith. Catherine sneered.

"I don't even know what you've been happy about?" the black cat chimed in, "You win every time you fight, but when did Gray listen to your descent into darkness?"

"You, I'm going to be angry!" Vivien yelled in Gray's head.

Walking up to Irene, Gray said seriously: "This matter may be very troublesome, from now on, you have to protect yourself." ”

Irene nodded slightly, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say. However, this is indeed the Gray she knew. Gray who is neither black nor white.

......

The two knights of the Silver Moon Knights had already arrived at the door of Shelley's room and knocked lightly on the door: "Miss Shelley, we are here to pick you up on the orders of the Holy Knights. Are you there?"

Downstairs, there was also a knight of the Silver Moon Knights standing downstairs. It happened to be right on the balcony of Shelley's room.

"What to do, we can't seem to escape...... one of the mercenaries said nervously.

"Stupid, don't talk!"

Unfortunately, the hearing of the undead is significantly better than that of humans. Especially the Undead Knights. They've heard it.

The two knights of the Silver Moon Knights outside the door were stunned for a moment, and drew their swords with a "bang".

......

Gray, who was in Pierce Cathedral, jerked his head back and looked in the direction of Shelley's mansion.

Almost at the same time, the Silver Moon Knights scattered across the streets of the Lion King's Capital also looked in the same direction.

In the next moment, the entire Silver Moon Knights, including Gray, took a step forward and sprinted in the direction of Shelley's mansion.

Everyone around them, including Irene, looked confused.

......

With a "bang", the door was directly slammed open.

Count Grugru, who was tidying up in the room downstairs, looked up in the direction of the sound, and was stunned for a moment. The guards in the courtyard were also stunned one by one.

The two Silver Moon Knights who rushed into the room saw Shelley on the couch, Andrew standing on the balcony, and the three mercenaries holding their weapons and looking vicious. Instantly understand what happened.

Andrew sniffled and said, "Kill them." ”

Immediately, the three mercenaries rushed towards the two Silver Moon Knights.

The mercenaries under Archmage Andrew are naturally not comparable to ordinary mercenaries.

In the small room, the five of them quickly fought fiercely.

One of the mercenaries and a knight of the Silver Moon tangled together, slashing sword after sword, the surrounding furniture crumbling under their blades.

It was clear that the Silver Moon Knight had a strength advantage, while the mercenaries on the opposite side had a technical advantage. For a time, it was up and down.

The Silvermoon Knight on the other side was not so lucky.

One of the mercenaries leaps high, and from top to bottom is a sword.

The Silver Moon Knight hurriedly raised his hand to block with his sword.

At the same time, the other mercenary bent down and stepped forward, taking advantage of the flaws in the Silvermoon Knight's hand, the scimitar in his hand slashed directly through the armor on the Silvermoon Knight's waist.

The knife was very sharp, and the thick armor was broken by him in one fell swoop.

However, to their horror, something happened. Wounds, no blood.

There was a huge wound, and there was not a drop of blood. The wounded Silver Moon Knight acted as if nothing had happened, and with a heavy backhand blow, he directly knocked the mercenary beside him away.

Immediately afterward, the two Silver Moon Knights did not stop doing anything, and directly launched a charge, deliberately letting the opponent's sword stab on their body, getting stuck, and then crashing into it before the other party could react, and at close range, quickly piercing the opponent's hands and feet. All of a sudden, the two mercenaries lost their combat effectiveness and fell in a pool of blood.

The mercenary who was knocked away finally got up from the ground, and just saw the scene in front of him, and he was dumbfounded. Turn around and want to run. It's a pity that the Silvermoon Knight's flying sword skills are not bad. One of them pulled out his opponent's sword stuck on him and threw it, hitting him right in the thigh. The mercenary went straight down from the balcony.

The two mercenaries who fell to the ground were already dying and fainted.

It's just a matter of a moment, and in just an instant, the three elite mercenaries have all been solved.

Andrew held his wand and watched it all incredulously.

"You ...... You're not human!"

The two Silver Moon Knights didn't speak, they just grabbed their swords and rushed towards him.

At the same time, the third Silver Moon Knight, who was originally guarding the first floor, had already jumped onto the balcony on the second floor, also approaching Andrew.

......

"There's an accident on the second floor! it's Miss Shelley's room!"

In the mansion, Count Grugru's guards were climbing up the stairs quickly.

The Silver Moon Knights of the entire Lion King Capital are sprinting towards here.

As the head of the Knights of the Silver Moon, Gray has also left Pierce Cathedral.

......

In desperation, Andrew could only use his wand to release a cloud of green energy with one hand, locking the two Silver Moon Knights who were rushing towards him. With a pinch of his other hand, he quickly recited a short series of incantations.

A green glow struck out of his palm, and the third Silver Moon Knight was charging towards him in the direction of the balcony in the middle of the balcony. The Silver Moon Knight slammed back, and his helmet flew away.

Through the silver moonlight peeping through the window, Andrew clearly saw a bare skull......

The Silver Moon Knight struggled to pick up his helmet and put it back on.

"Undead Knight?" Suddenly, Andrew's eyes widened and he laughed slowly: "Hehehehehe, I see. I said how can there be a necromancer who is idle and has nothing to do all day to revive ghosts, so that's the case! A paladin who rules the lion king's capital by ghosts! Hahahaha! It's getting more and more interesting! In this way, it won't be wronged you!"
