It wasn't until a minute and a half later that Miles reappeared on the street below in a new outfit.

"No one recognized me just now......"

He rubbed his eyes, which were still a little uncomfortable from the bright light, and muttered to himself, looking out.

By this time, Benjamin had already flown from above to the north of the town, and the barrier was intact. A large amount of muddy water piled up outside the rune defense array, surrounding the entire town, but it no longer had the surging momentum it had at the beginning. The northern slopes of the hill no longer poured down the mudslide, and they seemed to have survived the offensive.

Further north, Miles even discovered that the Kingdom Army had emerged in another path. They were standing on a high slope, but they were just looking at Crewe from afar, motionless - it was clear that because the rune defense array had not been blown up, and the mudslide had not damaged the Black Nightmare in the slightest, their plan had failed completely, and their strategy had to be rethought.

Miles was also secretly relieved when he saw this.

It was his mistake not to investigate the mudslide that rushed to the city, but fortunately he just made up for it and saved the whole town. Pity...... In order to preserve the reputation of his legendary mercenary, he must not claim the title of "hero".

"Hey, are you alright?"

However, as soon as Miles arrived north of town, Benjamin spotted him and was able to fly down from the sky, frowning and asking.

“...... What?" he had to play dumb.

"You saved Crewe, and you saved the Nightmares. Benjamin completely ignored his pretense of stupidity, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Your actions just turned the whole situation around, I don't know how to express my gratitude! Don't worry, you just scrapped your clothes under fire, I'm sure someone will make you exactly the same!"

“......”

Miles felt like he was doing it on purpose.

He hurriedly diverted the topic: "That...... How's it going out there?"

When Benjamin heard this, he turned his head to look at the Wang Guojun in the distance, and finally let Miles go, and replied seriously: "It's better than I imagined." The mudslide did not break the barrier, but piled up outside the barrier, and the kingdom army had no way to charge if they wanted to. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the muddy water that had piled up outside the barrier.

Water, mud, stones...... The mess was piled up several meters high outside, and it was even growing under the influence of the rain. There is no doubt that this has become the natural wall of Crewe Town, and the Kingdom Army should not try to approach them unless they come by boat.

Seeing this, Miles couldn't help but nod in surprise.

"And what are you going to do now?"

"Drag. Benjamin took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "Elizabeth has just heard the news that the Wood army has just successfully rendezvous, and they are only a few kilometers away from Hywinley. As long as we drag on here, the church is tantamount to a slow death. ”

"The church won't let you drag it out. ”

"I know. ”

Benjamin nodded, got up suddenly, and flew into the air again.

Under the heavy rain, he stopped in mid-air, looking at the Kingdom Army in the distance. Although everything was blurry, he couldn't see who was who, but he could feel Grant's angry gaze staring at him through a long distance.

Therefore, he suddenly lifted his chin and made a defiant movement.

Bite!

Sure enough, in the next second, an extreme light filament rushed towards him, but in the end, it was blocked by the rune defense array, and it did not hurt Benjamin in the slightest.

Benjamin also looked thoughtful.

At this moment, Grant must be in a very irrational state. Therefore, he can distract his opponents by provocation and make them less quick to come up with a new strategy, but ...... This approach does not affect the overall situation. No matter how much he dragged it, the church's cannon was still hidden in the mountains, ready for the next round of bombardment.

Myers was right, the church would never let them drag on.

“...... Maybe we should take the initiative?"

"Come on. The system immediately popped up, "Now that the barrier is outside the quagmire, how can you take the initiative to attack?"

"I mean wait for the quagmire to disappear. Benjamin shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart, "The army of the church was forcibly put together, and the cohesion is very poor, if we can find a way to rebel against them, we don't need to be a shrinking turtle here!"

"How do you make a rebellion?"

"I'm still thinking. ”

"Cut ——!"

Benjamin ignored the system's disdain and touched his chin and fell into deep thought. If you think about it carefully, the rebellion does have a certain feasibility, at least according to some information he has learned, many people were reluctantly arrested and enlisted in the army.

But it doesn't seem to be so easy to implement, the key is...... They had no access to the Kingdom Army. It's impossible for Benjamin to wave his hand in the air and shout some slogans at them with a loudspeaker, and they will wake up in an instant and turn against the church, right?

Gotta think of something......

In this way, under the stalemate between the two sides, the night passed little by little. The people of Crewe had barely slept and were terrified that a mudslide might fall from the sky or a barrage of artillery would raze the place. But in the end, nothing happened, and it wasn't until the east came back to light that people knew it was already the next morning.

The rain had stopped, and the mudslides that had piled up outside the barrier had evaporated and dried up little by little with the sun...... In the end, it became a low and fragile dirt slope, piled up outside the town, and no longer an obstacle to the attack of the Kingdom army.

So, they also launched an attack at that moment.

"All the troops are attacking!"

Grant shouted, and all the soldiers rushed towards Crewe, and the priests rose into the air in droves. Accompanied by dozens of cannonballs of holy light rising from the mountain, Grant and the bishops flew to the front, trying to defeat the rune defense array under the first wave of charge.

- Crewe is just a town after all, it has no walls. As long as the barrier is broken, the kingdom army will drive straight in, drowning everyone in the sea of people.

In the face of all this, within the enchantment, about 300 mages flew up, came to the same height as Grant and the priest's team, and began to cast spells across the enchantment. Runes flashed in their eyes, and with it, a dense network of wind blades and ice arrows appeared above the barrier.

"Hmph...... It's just a dying struggle. Grant didn't care about this, and he and the priest began to cast spells during the flight.

The Holy Light condensed in their hands, turning into one cross after another, and then, as if they had made an appointment, the crosses in everyone's hands took off at the same time, floating forward like dandelions, facing the magical attacks created by the mages, and finally, turning into a huge banner composed purely of Holy Light.

As soon as all attacks hit the Holy Light Banner, they were instantly wiped out.

A sneer also appeared at the corner of Grant's mouth.

However, at this moment, there was a slight movement in the Kingdom army below, and even the shouts of killing suddenly became chaotic.

The priests above suddenly looked down, only to see that some of the soldiers who had rushed ahead had somehow stopped and stood in place, and some even began to retreat. Because of this, the entire charging team was in chaos in an instant, and many people shouted words such as "who is going to help them fight", so loud that they could even hear it in the sky.

"What's going on......"

Grant was amazed. However, when he looked into the barrier below, he saw about a dozen strange people standing inside, their eyes closed, and strange and powerful fluctuations emanated, piercing the barrier and falling on those soldiers.
