Chapter 168: Surrounded and Besieged

Benjamin had never seen a bishop like that. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

It should be said that he had never seen a person in the church lose his temper to such an extent - he had not been against the church for a day or two, and many priests and paladins had died under his hands, including the priest who had been washed to death by the "drum washing machine" last time. Can...... Even the baptized priest didn't look like the bishop gaffe at the moment.

After that extraordinarily loud "bang", soon, there was a burst of hysterical scolding outside the iron gate blocking the entrance. And it was at this time that Benjamin had the opportunity to take a lesson in the world's swear words.

Therefore, he couldn't help but turn on the water elemental induction method, sensing the bishop whose mentality exploded outside.

In the midst of the blue world, he could feel that the entire left side of the bishop's face had begun to swell a little, and the other party's red priest's robe, which had been spotless, was now covered in mud. Coupled with messy hair and distorted expressions, the current bishop is a madman who has been locked up in a purification center for a long time.

He scolded like this, and stepped on the closed entrance with his foot, how could he still have the appearance of a high-ranking bishop.

It's miserable......

Fortunately, no one except Benjamin could see the bishop now, otherwise, the bishop probably wouldn't have the face to go now.

Of course, after Benjamin observed the bishop for a moment with the water elemental induction method, the bishop quickly sensed Benjamin's observation as well. Suddenly, he came back to his senses, and after looking at his embarrassed appearance, the expression on his face became extremely exciting.

He just squatted by the sealed entrance, with an expression like eating Xiang, and was silent for about half an hour, and finally took a deep breath, barely calmed down, and stood up.

He didn't leave, but tidied up his appearance and took off again. In the darkness of the night, he flew directly over the Krussard gate and the border of the kingdom, landing on the other side of the gate.

So he blocked the exit of the gate, carved a large stone nearby into a chair by divine magic, and sat there like this, and began to pray, ready to sit until he was old.

It was clear that after the initial emotional runaway, he regained his senses and was well aware that he could not break through the gates' defenses. Therefore, he retreated and chose to block the exit, so that the mage in the gate could not escape to Ikor.

"Your Excellency Benjamin...... Now, what are we going to do?"

After hearing about the bishop's actions, many mages inside the gate had worried looks on their faces.

"It's not early, let's go and rest first. Benjamin shook his head and said to them, "How can the Crussad gate be so easy to breach, since he wants to fight a protracted war with us, then we will consume them." ā€

He wanted to see if the bishops were comfortable in their chairs, or if they were comfortable in their beds.

In this way, although the mages' expressions were still a little worried, but under Benjamin's persuasion, they were at ease, found some better rooms in the gate, and went to sleep.

As for Benjamin, he squatted on the edge of the door again, observed the water elemental method for a while, and found that there was no movement, so he also went to rest.

In the cold moonlight, the quiet fortress and the bishop sitting next to it seem to become a still oil painting.

About another hour or so passed.

Eventually, the original defenders of the gate returned to Crewe in sparse form.

After the griffons ravaged them, their numbers were almost halved, and the remaining half appeared to be covered in bruises. When they returned, they rushed to the gate. Obviously, he wanted to go back inside the gate, back to his usual bed. But alas, they can't go back.

At present, the entrance and exit gates on both sides of the gate have been closed, and the entrance to the staircase at the top of the gate has also been closed, and the whole gate is in a completely sealed state. A few unconvinced priests also chanted intermediate divine arts, and several holy light giant swords slashed back and forth on the door, slashing their own spiritual power to the point that they were almost exhausted, but they failed to leave a trace on the door.

It was also at this time that they remembered that as long as all the entrances and exits were sealed, the Crusade Gate was almost impossible to break.

In this way, after the initial anger, the homeless soldiers and priests had no choice but to start camping in front of the Crussad Gate in the middle of the night, adopting the same tactics as the bishop.

Such a big movement naturally attracted many residents of the town. However, everyone did not dare to approach, so they could only hide from a distance, watch, and whisper to each other.

"What's going on? Is there going to be a war?"

"I don't know...... But do you see the line on the top of the gate before? I think the current situation must have something to do with that line of words. ā€

"I didn't see it, what words?"

"Oh, do you have to force me to say it, in case someone else hears it...... Forget it, you come closer, I'll whisper to you, it's the ......'The church is stupid!'"

"Oh, that's the 'church is stupid'!"

"That's it, it's 'the church is stupid'!"

ā€œ......ā€

They may not know what this is all about, but they have all seen the words spelled out by the flame before. As a result, the phrase "the church is stupid" that appeared on the top of the gate became the hottest buzzword in Crewe Town in private, and was repeated by all kinds of people I don't know how many times.

If the people in the church knew, they would not be far from being angry.

However, the current church, what the people of Crewe Town are saying, they probably don't have time to care. The Crussard Gate is the most important military fortress in the kingdom and is related to the safety of the entire country. And this inexplicable loss is definitely a major blow to the kingdom.

The news soon spread throughout the kingdom, and the king immediately sent a large army to the border. The paladins, who had been assembling towards the royal capital, also turned their horses around and rushed to Crewe. In addition to the bishop who stayed behind, all the other priests in the nearby church also set out, vowing to help the kingdom regain control of the Crussard Gate.

But...... Did they do it?

Not really.

As a military fortress that existed before the kingdom was founded, after the establishment of the kingdom, the gate was fortified once under the rule of each generation of popes. Coupled with the fact that each generation of popes would bless the gate with divine magic, and over the generations, the crusade gate has reached a level that no one can imagine.

At first, the church gathered hundreds of priests to chant divine magic in an attempt to force the door down, but in vain. Later, they brought in artillery and prepared to blast the gate open with the blessed cannonballs. However, under the bombardment of three guns, the gate remained unscathed. When the artillery battalion commander saw this scene, he almost turned his Mediterranean into a Wu Ke.

As a result, the whole scene was at an impasse.

The kingdom's forces are still moving this way, and there are more and more people in Crewe. Many soldiers climbed up to the top of the gate, climbed to the other side of the gate, and encamped with the bishop, and completely surrounded the gate......

But what if it was surrounded?

They were like facing a 10,000-year-old turtle shrunk into its shell, and they didn't know what to do at all, and when they looked back, this old turtle shell was fucking made by themselves.

Thinking of this, the bishop was almost so angry that he didn't fall asleep for days.

In this way, the people outside the gate racked their brains and thought about how to break through the gate. But this matter is too tricky, so time is dragged down day by day.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and they still haven't come up with any good solutions.

So, what about the people inside the gate?

"Hmm...... Sure enough, it was high-grade wheat, and the baked bread tasted good. There is also this beef, although it has been left for a long time, it is well preserved with ice cubes, and now I eat it, and it still feels very tender. ā€

At the end of another magic seminar, more than twenty mages, gathered in a small chapel that they had converted into a dining room, ate beef carefully preserved in the storeroom, and drank wine hidden under the general's bed.
