"Down with the Paladin!"

"Down with the Paladin!"

"Down with the Paladin......

In the crowd, slogans sounded sporadically. However, there doesn't seem to be much of a response. Everyone was still stunned by Shelley's sudden transformation into a banshee.

In desperation, Andrew had no choice but to change his tone and shout: "Down with the paladin!

"Down with the Paladin!

"Hit the Paladin!"

"Give me back the new deal!"

The crowd responded, and some of them rushed forward and began to charge the lines formed by the soldiers.

On the balcony, the members of the White City gang looked at Shelley, who had turned into a banshee, and they were all speechless in shock, not even noticing the drastic changes that were taking place in the situation.

Shelley stared blankly at Gray, tears pouring down her eyes.

"I ...... Gray, I, I'm really not a demon. I don't know why it ......"

"I know, it's the potion. Gray turned his face sideways, let go of his senses, and began to search the crowd for his target.

At the same time, Gray walked up to Shelley's side under everyone's surprised eyes, reached out and took Shelley's palm, which had become like an eagle's claw, and then whispered, "Don't be afraid, there is me." ”

Shelley stared blankly at Gray. Gray was wearing a mask, and no one could see his expression. But Shelley could feel the firmness in his grip on his hand.

All of a sudden, the people in the square were in an uproar.

"The paladin was really bewitched by the devil......"

"He's standing with the devil?"

"Does he want to protect that demon?"

"Burn her!"

Andrew smiled slightly and lowered his head, covering his head tightly with his hood.

The Knights of the Silver Moon and the ordinary soldiers formed a formation, desperately holding back civilians who tried to rush towards the church.

Suddenly, a hand reached out from the crowd and pressed onto the mask of one of the Silver Moon Knights. Fortunately, the Silver Moon Knight reacted quickly, let out a scream, and quickly took a step back and dodged away.

The hand quickly retracted again. In the confusion, they couldn't even figure out whose hand it was.

"Oh no. Carl whispered in Gray's ear.

"I know. Gray remained motionless, continuing to sweep through the crowd with his senses.

Gray's voice sounded in the minds of all the Silver Moon Knights: "Retreat, form a formation, and let the other soldiers take over!"

"Yes!"

All the Silvermoon Knights retreated in unison, and the ordinary soldiers behind them quickly took their place and continued to block the civilian rush.

The mercenaries lurking in the crowd couldn't reach the Silver Moon Knight, and they were helpless.

Without the Silver Moon Knight, the entire line of defense crumbled suddenly. Of course, the most important thing is that no one has a weapon on it. After making sure that Gray didn't intend to let them "see blood", the civilians seemed to be inspired and rushed forward even more frantically.

"Rush in! Kill the demon who bewitched the paladin!

"Rush!"

"Burn the demon!"

Everyone seemed to be going crazy.

The authors of "A Knight's Guide to Becoming a Talent" were all pushed to the back, standing in a daze, not knowing what to do.

......

In the small room, Dean, as a bishop, fidgeted and listened to the commotion outside.

"What's going on?"

The mercenary on the side dipped the blade of the dagger with his hand and said softly: "Just stay here, there is still a place where you need to be used later." ”

"What to do with me?" Dean was confused, a little flustered.

......

In the midst of the crowd, Gray finally locked on a target.

Andrew seemed to notice it too, slowly raised his head, looked at Gray from afar, and smiled.

Benedict II next to him was so frightened that he wanted to run, but he was still dragged by Andrew.

"Hello, Necromancer Paladin, I'm Andrew, the Chief Archmage of the Mage Alliance, and it's a great honor to meet you. The provocative words were transmitted directly to Gray's mind.

"Can I beat him?" asked Vivien.

"Blood Elf Mage, two hundred and ten years old. Vivien replied quietly.

"Then I can't beat him?"

"No, you can beat it. Lichs are purely magical creatures, and their magical perception is much stronger than that of blood elves, not to mention that you don't need to rest. However, with the mana already distributed among a hundred undead knights, it will be difficult for you to win. ”

"But you can still win, right?"

"I guess so. Well, there are always accidents in this kind of thing. If you're willing to borrow my power, there will be no surprises. I can fight so much that I don't even recognize it. ”

Gray didn't answer.

Seeing that Gray did not act immediately, but just looked at himself quietly, Andrew grabbed Benedict II's hand and passed another sentence to Gray's mind.

"You guessed it right, it's the curse I put on your fiancée. If you can defeat me, I can tell you how to break the spell. ”

Gray's hand was on the hilt of the sword.

The black cat hurriedly screamed, "Don't let him cheat!

"Why?"

"He wants to use civilians as shields!"

In an instant, Gray understood.

Yes, if there were soldiers like an ocean below, as if he had been besieged by Benedict II before, Gray would have pounced without hesitation. But if it's civilians......

Let Gray pounce, that's what the other party wants to see. This is a poisonous plan that has been prepared for a long time. With this step, there was no turning back for Gray.

Gray slowly let go of the hand holding the sword, turned his face sideways, looked at Shelley, and said, "Shelley, I have wronged you." I promise you, I'll help you lift the curse. ”

Shelley stared blankly at Gray.

Before everyone could react, Gray had already shouted loudly, "Tenedas ——!"

In the distance, Tenedas leapt to his feet, and the scattered soldiers from the rear of the line quickly galloped towards the position directly below the balcony.

Turning around, Gray turned to Irene, Count Grugru, and the others, "As long as Shelley and I are not here, they have no reason to storm the church." ”

With that, he picked up Shelley, jumped straight off the balcony, and landed firmly on Tenadas's horse.

Everyone in the square was stunned, even Andrew was stunned.

Jones and Dora hurriedly jumped off the balcony together.

Gray hugged Shelley tightly, quickly turned his horse's head, and rushed into the main entrance of the church. The soldiers scattered along the way hurriedly dodged.

Irene, Bob, Count Grugru, and the others all lay on the balcony of the main church building, watching in horror.

The front door has been completely fenced off, and there is only one way to leave. That's the back door.

Gray rode along the main road of the church, and as he passed the main hall, he stopped, bowed his head, and reverently drew a cross on his chest with his hand.

"Merciful Lord, if this were your test, I would not give up. I'm ready to fight the mistakes for a long time, and the victory belongs to the brave, not the coward!"

Shelley, who was held in Gray's arms, was stunned, because she seemed to feel that the gods were slowly rolling their eyes. They were all looking at Gray.

Not just the statue of God, but the gloomy, only the occasional moonlight left in the Pierce Cathedral, all of them were looking at Gray.

The frescoes, the past, even the burned saint Abstild was looking at Gray. As in the past 10,000 years, this is another period of turmoil, but this time, the dominance has fallen to a Lich Knight.

In the blink of an eye, they had rushed out the back door of the church. Defensive lines have also been deployed here, but only sporadic civilians.

......

"Duke Beshir, and you. Carl looked around at the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on Bob, he touched Bob's head, and said softly, "Especially His Royal Highness the Prince." I am ordered by the Paladin to protect you from the Lion King's Capital. We need to evacuate immediately, but we will be back. ”

Irene who finally came to her senses asked in a daze, "When did he give you the order?"

"Just now. ”

Under the command of the Silver Moon Knight, the human soldiers who formed the defense line quickly made out one gap after another, formed their own formations, and moved outward.

All of a sudden, the civilians who had just repeatedly attacked were at a loss. One by one, they were stunned on the spot.

"He actually gave up the Lion King Capital, would he rather give up the Lion King Capital than give in?" Andrew gritted his teeth and widened his eyes.

"He gave up the lion king......? Then I can take back the throne?"

Benedict II next to him was also stunned. It's just that between him and Andrew, one is angry, the other is happy, and there is a world of difference.

"Do you want to leave without bloodshed?" Andrew turned his face sideways, and shouted loudly, "Chase!

These words were addressed to the mercenaries scattered everywhere, and they were accurately transmitted to the minds of the mercenaries.

The mercenaries, dressed in various costumes and disguised as various people, immediately tore off their disguises and moved when they heard the news.

......

Zeda and Tavia watched silently.

......

Along the long street, Gray ran wildly, and the scattered pedestrians scrambled to dodge. Jones and Dora rode horses and followed closely behind.

"Why...... You believe me so much?" asked Shelley, choking up.

"I said I would save you even if it was the Holy Spirit that surrounded you. The Paladin's promise is unquestionable. Gray replied firmly.

Yes, Shelley thought it was a love story, but it wasn't.

Gray hugged Shelley, who had become demonized. Shelley hugged him tightly, crying and laughing.

As he galloped, the wind whistled and Shelley's long hair fluttered in the wind. Light and shadow circulate around them, like years passing in a hurry.

Ran all the way out of the Lion King's Capital, ran past the farmstead, and rushed into the woods.

Greller stopped his horse, picked Shelley off his horse, and commanded Jones and Dora, who were following them, "Protect Shelley." ”

"Yes!"

As he spoke, he turned around and hugged Shelley again, hugged him tightly, and whispered in Shelley's ear: "I'll teach a few bad guys a lesson, and I'll be back to pick you up soon." ”

Shelley hugged Gray tightly for a moment before letting go. Blinking his eyes full of tears, he choked up and said, "I'll wait for you." ”
