Chapter Seventy-Seven: Facing the Enemy

Norvi City, which is the eastern hub of Fasenel, has a large number of mercenary groups and caravans coming in and out every day. Norvi City has only two gates, east and west, but each gate is extraordinarily spacious. The gate is 70 meters wide, and there are 20 passages for travelers to enter and exit, each of which is 3 meters wide. In addition, there were 100 city guards on each side of the inner and outer gates to maintain law and order.

Early in the morning, the prosecutor signaled the city guards to open the city gates, as usual. With the sound of the gears turning, the heavy metal gate made a sonorous sound, and then slowly fell.

The yawning inspector looked at the slowly falling city gate, and couldn't help but feel a little startled when he thought that there were a lot of pedestrians and goods that needed to be inspected.

However, as the scene outside the city gates slowly revealed, the inquisitor, who was not yet fully awake, began to suspect that he was still asleep.

There was only one mercenary group outside the city gate, a total of five people, all of whom were wounded. And these five people are clearly the barrel mercenary group that just left the city from their place yesterday afternoon.

"What's the matter, just a few of you? Old Monchi, have you drunk too much, and you only left the city yesterday afternoon, and now you're back?"

An old mercenary with a somewhat fat figure glanced at the inspector and said in a low voice: "The official road was blocked by a group of people, and there was a fight, but I didn't win." We're back early, and it's time for everyone else to come back. Those who don't come back may never come back. ”

In an instant, the inquisitor's body turned cold.

Castle Lord's Mansion.

"Still doesn't work?"

"Well, the interference is too strong, and the communication circle can't send a message at all. ”

Hogg looked at Weifeng with some guilt, in his opinion, it was because his strength as a city lord was too weak that the current situation occurred.

"Wait and see, I don't believe they can keep Norvi City cut off from the outside world like this. ”

The two walked out of the communication room with some heaviness.

"No, no, Lord Hogg. A reporter yelled at Hogg with a panicked look, apparently having been waiting outside the comms room for a long time.

"What's wrong?"

"Just now, the news from the security team has revealed that Mr. Luther's mansion has just been destroyed by an unknown Holy Order, and the entire mansion seems to have disappeared out of thin air. ”

In an instant, Weifeng's face turned pale, and he walked quickly to the notekeeper, grabbed him by the collar and asked eagerly.

"What about Mr. Cole, did you spot Mr. Cole at the scene?"

The notekeeper was visibly frightened by the wind, and replied with some trepidation.

"Cole, Mr. Cole is fine, we found him locked up in a basement while searching the scene, and we've sent him to the lounge in the backyard. By the way, Mr. Cole was found along with a dozen other slave girls. ”

Weifeng gasped heavily, his hanging heart finally relaxed, and his hands that were gripping the collar of the chronicler were loosened. If something happens to Cole, Weifeng really doesn't know how to explain it to Mino.

Is it because the magic fluctuations are sealed by the Demon Sealing Thorn Pattern, so it is ignored......

"Also, there's one more thing. Since just now, people from caravans and mercenary groups have been coming to report that someone has blocked the official road out of Norvi City, and those who left the city yesterday have been forced to return to the city, and now there are rumors in the city, and it has become a mess. ”

The worst fears came true.

"Have you been in contact with the mercenary union, and is there any action on the security team's side?"

"I did, the mercenary union didn't know what was going on, and Mr. Cole wasn't there, they were already trying their best to pacify the mercenary groups, and the security team was trying their best to maintain order. ”

"Okay, you go and tell the security team that in extraordinary times, there are those who dare to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, and they can be suppressed by force. Also, if there is new news, report immediately. ”

"Yes, Master Hogg. ”

The Chronicler took the order and walked away quickly, but Hogg still looked worried.

"Would you like to see Mr. Cole?"

"No need, please send someone to take Mr. Cole's wife to the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"Okay, Your Highness Weifeng. However, you should get up and leave Norvi City at once, and I can organize a team of guards here. ”

Weifeng didn't immediately respond to Hogg's request, but closed his eyes and calmed down the state of mind that had just been messed up because of Cole.

"Do you think they're going to let me leave Norvi even if they've done that?"

Hogg looked at Weifeng with a calm face, and there was some grief in his heart.

"Your Highness, I, Hogg, will definitely escort you out of the city if I fight for this old life. ”

"This was the first contest between Fassener and the Holy See since Serena succeeded to the throne. Even if I were able to escape Norvi City, the forces that had supported Serena would inevitably be shaken by this. Serena is in a difficult situation right now, and I can't afford to trouble her anymore. ”

"But a cardinal from the Ermang Realm, plus Albert, who has the title of the first person of the younger generation of the Holy See, we really don't have any chance of winning......

"You don't need to win, the outside world must have noticed the anomaly in Norvi City. The news of my presence in Norvi City is still known. I'm sure someone will come before dark. ”

"But ......"

Just when Hogg wanted to persuade the wind again, a sudden change occurred.

A huge ball of light appeared directly above Norvi City, and the white light was so intense that ordinary people didn't dare to look directly at the light with their eyes. Panic quickly spread, and all kinds of rumors began to spread among the crowd, and the whole city of Norvi was about to be plunged into unprecedented chaos.

Weifeng and Hogg's faces turned pale.

This is a blatant provocation.

"Mr. Hogg, I ask you, as the thirty-eighth descendant of the Callegi family, to join me in the battle for the glory of St. Fassen. ”

Hogg looked at the resolute expression on the face of the young prince, and then looked up at the vague figure in the sky. For some reason, a strange feeling began to creep through Hogg's mind, both familiar and strange.

That's what I used to feel when I was younger.

"I am willing to fight with His Royal Highness the Prince, and I would rather die than retreat!"

"Good!"

A black light rose from the ground and rushed towards the white light in the sky in an almost brutal manner.

The entire city of Norvi was drawn to the black trail.

"Khooth!"

The black sword slashed at a large spherical barrier, making a sound like metal clashing.

Time seemed to stand still for a second, and everyone held their breath.

In the next second, a huge white ball of light was like a crystal ball broken by a child, and dense cracks spread out from the collision, and the entire enchantment shattered. The shattered barrier turned into streamers and fell vertically, gradually dissipating.

Finally, people saw the white light for what it was.

A huge four-winged statue of the Holy Family.
