The sudden change and the strange laughter of the female mage Joanna startled everyone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 As a result, the guards at the gate had no time to react at all, and could only let the fireball fly over, about to hit the chest of both of them.

However, unexpectedly, just as the flames of magic were about to turn them to ashes, the cross in their hands that was used to detect the mage suddenly shattered on its own, opening a shield of holy light to help them block the two fireballs.

"How could it be ......?"

Seeing this scene, the fireball and Joanna and Andy were stunned, and forgot to rush towards the gate.

Originally, in their expectations, these two fireballs should have killed these two guards directly. But what they didn't expect was that the cross in their hands was so versatile, even if they checked the mage, they could automatically help people block a blow.

This was something they hadn't expected before.

The shield blocked the fireball and then dissipated on its own, and at this time, the soldiers at the gate also reacted. They looked at a man and a woman not far away, looked at each other, and immediately turned around and were about to run, as if preparing to return to the gate for help.

However, just as they were about to run back, Wallis, the merchant who had just been negotiating a deal with them, suddenly lunged forward and firmly hugged the thighs of the two soldiers.

"Help, help! It's the mage! Save me, don't let them hurt me! I can't die!"

The soldier panicked and almost tripped and fell to the ground.

"What for...... You, you let go of me. ”

Wallis didn't look strong, but he had a lot of strength, clutching the legs of the two soldiers. The soldiers tried to kick Wallis away, but in this hurry, they couldn't kick them out.

Then, the few people pushing the grain cart behind Wallis also rushed up and crowded at the door of the Crusade gate. Originally, the entrance here was relatively spacious, but no matter how spacious it was, it couldn't hold seven or eight people, five or six carts, and a dozen large bags of grain squeezed together.

In this way, the entire doorway of the gate was jammed, everyone scuffled together, and the two soldiers were squeezed completely immobile.

"Let go of your hands! There's a mage coming, we need to close the door first!"

"Don't, don't squeeze! my waist!

"No, don't lock us out, we're going to die!"

"What are you touching? Stop touching it, take your hands off!"

"Ahh

“......”

The scene was very chaotic at one point.

Standing about ten meters away from the door, Joanna and Andy, even as the initiators of the entire attack, couldn't help but be a little confused as they looked at the scene in front of them.

"That...... Are we going to do it again?"

“...... It's going to hurt them by mistake, so I think we'd better wait and see for a while. ”

Soon, the other guards on duty at the gate were also attracted by the noisy situation. When they came here, they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the gate blocked by soldiers, Wallis, men pushing grain, sacks of grain, and a mess of carts.

It was probably the most chaotic scene they had ever seen in their lives.

After a brief moment of astonishment, they stepped forward and tried to save the two soldiers. However, they underestimate this group of people...... Oh no, how messy this thing is. They couldn't pull people out at all, and even put a new soldier in.

"What's going on? what the hell are you doing?" asked the soldier who hadn't been swept away.

"Yes, there's a mage attack, close the door!"

Hearing this, a soldier immediately walked over to a handle on the side of the aisle and tried to turn the handle to close the door. However, as soon as he crouched down, he immediately hesitated again.

"No, you've blocked the door. If you put the door down, you'll all be crushed to death. ”

After a short silence, someone in the chaotic crowd immediately replied, "Then pull us all in!"

However, when they heard this, all the soldiers stopped their movements at once, and no one closed the door or pulled anyone.

"What's wrong...... What are you doing there?"

The newly arrived soldiers looked at each other, and no one spoke.

Outsiders may not be able to understand their hesitation, but as the same group, several soldiers in the crowd suddenly understood.

They can't pull people in - that's their job. If they let people in without inspection, if the bishop or captain knew about it, they would definitely be punished.

However, now that there are mages attacking outside, if they don't close the door quickly, they will definitely be punished. Under the contradiction between the two, they are all the lowest soldiers, and they naturally become helpless.

"Divide one person and call the priest, and the others help pull us in! Hurry up! The mage from outside is about to come in! and then we will be completely finished!" said Wallis, who was huddled in the crowd, and suddenly spoke, imitating the voice of one of the soldiers.

The situation at the gate was already chaotic, crowded into a heap, and no one noticed who said this. The soldiers on the side didn't know what to do, and coupled with the huge pressure of "the mage is about to come in", therefore, the six gods and no master could only follow the advice of this sentence and act quickly.

At this point, all they need is an order.

And just like that, they all poured up, and with all their might, they were ready to pull in all the lumps of stuff that were blocking the doorway.

At the same time, the soldier closest to the side door of the aisle also hurriedly opened the side door and ran all the way in, intending to find the only priest who was left in the gate and let him come out to deal with the mage's attack.

After about five minutes of hard work, the strange pile of things blocking the door finally fell apart with a bang, and the soldiers, people, stuck carts, and a dozen large bags of grain that were huddled together fell into the aisle of the Crusade gate.

They fell to the ground, screaming in all sorts of pain, and for a time they could not even stand up.

Smack!

The soldier on the side turned the handle, and with it, the steel door blessed by various divine spells fell, and with a loud bang, the entire Crussad gate was sealed.

The priest was also notified and came here. He looked at the mess all over the ground, couldn't help frowning deeply, and asked:

"Can anyone explain to me what the hell is going on here?"

Immediately, a soldier replied: "There is a mage attack outside, there are two large fireballs, and two crosses have been destroyed!"

"I already know this. The priest, however, shook his head, pointed to the grain and the mess of people, and said, "What I ask is, what are these people, who are they, and why did you let them in?"

"This ......" The soldier suddenly staggered, not knowing how to explain it.

At that moment, Wallis patted the dust off his body. He got up from the ground, walked up to the priest, and bowed to him in some embarrassment.

"Let me explain. He took the priest's hand, gasped, and said with great sincerity, "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Wallis, the merchant of the town." You ordered this food from me, and we were just about to deliver it to you, when we ran into a mage attack at the door. Everyone panicked and wanted to run for their lives, and in the end it ended up like this, which is really embarrassing. ”

"Grain, Wallis?" said the priest, looking displeased, trying to pull his hand back. However, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and his face changed drastically, "You are, you are the ......"

Unfortunately, before he could finish the second half of his sentence, he was quickly interrupted by Wallis, who took the priest's words and said with a smile:

"That's right, I'm the mage. ”

And the priest was speechless at the moment.

Without anyone noticing, Wallis suddenly pulled out a dagger from his cuff. At the same time as the priest's face changed drastically, he took this smile and stabbed the dagger into the priest's chest before anyone could react.

It was as if time had stood still.

"Mistress Benjamin is right. Suddenly, in a daze, the priest heard Wallis's whisper, "As long as you use unenchanted weapons and attack at close range, you can avoid the automatic triggering of those life-saving crosses." ”

Hearing this, the priest opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something. It's a pity that he didn't say anything.

After saying that, Wallis also sent his hand away. Then, the priest, who was still high up just now, had fallen straight to the ground at this moment.

His eyes were wide open, and his expression was slightly stunned. It was as if even in the moment before he died, his consciousness had not yet come back to his senses, and he had not even had time to feel the shock before he had completely dissipated from this world.

Blood gushed from his dagger-pierced chest, like some kind of blood-red vine plant, and when the seeds hit the ground, they spread in all directions, full of life.
