Chapter 450: The Poison of the Plague
By the time the Knights of the Holy Judgment arrived in the Paris Empire, the Iga ninja in charge of monitoring had already sent the news back to Pritz City. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Under the dual effect of Feng Xifan's internal force recuperation and Mage Merlin's healing magic, Leo has barely recovered his mobility, but due to the damage of his meridians, he can't fight with people for a while.
Although Sidney and most of the Rose Knights escaped successfully, almost all of them were injured in the process of breaking through, and even some knights were unable to hold out to Pritz City because of their injuries, so it can be said that the Rose Knights were also severely injured in this battle and could not join the battle to defend Pritz for the time being.
Time is of the essence for Pritz. In Pritz City, construction is underway to repair buildings, and countless goblins are constantly raising the walls, preparing stones and arrows to defend the city. And Leo's heart is also silently waiting for the secret hands he arranged to play their role.
On a hill not far from the Knights of the Holy Judgment's residence, two dark shadows snuck in the bushes, observing the situation in the camp in the distance.
"I said dude, it seems that this Knights of the Holy Judgment is really inferior to the Knights of Light! From the outside, those Knights of Judgment are all equipped with gorgeous and mighty equipment, but the camp defense arrangement is much worse than that of the Knights of Light. It's convenient for us!" Swift, the grey-cloaked necromancer, grinned at his skeletal mouth, smiling in recklessness.
Baodong Cregs turned his head to look at Swift and did not answer, but the usual sad look on his face was slightly lessened, and it was obvious that Baodong Cregs was also pleased with the laxity of the Knights of the Holy Judgment.
However, Swift did not shut up because of the silence of the cave scum, and Swift, who had regained his mana, was obviously in a very good mood, and kept saying to the gourd-like Baodong scum: "I have put the plague poison in some wells and waterholes along the surrounding roads, and these divine judgment knights specialize in the light spells of the judgment and judgment, and lack the ability to detoxify, and the plague poison is estimated to have some effect." ”
"Also, let's say it first, we're just sneak attacking, retreat as soon as we are defeated, don't be stupid to fight with these guys, they believe in the god of light and are stupid, and their heads are full of muscles. We are noble mages, and as long as we have a small life, we can come back at any time to find their bad luck. ”
Because he has been dealing with the Church of Light for many years, and he is constantly in a cycle between provoking the Church of Light and being chased by the Church of Light, Swift thinks about how to escape if he fails before he starts, so he finds a way out in advance.
After saying so much, Baodong scumbags just glanced at it and nodded, and this dull temperament made Swift roll his eyes. However, the necromancer, who always deals with all kinds of skeletons and zombies, has long learned the skill of talking to himself and being unrepresented, and even if no one responds at all, Swift himself is quite energetic.
After Harold and Owen returned, the Knights of the Holy Judgment packed up and prepared for the march. Swift slapped his bare thigh bones excitedly, smiling smirked, as if he had seen the doglegs of the Church of Light suffer.
However, Swift didn't know that His Majesty Owen, one of the three cardinals of the dignified Church of Light, had come with the Knights of the Holy Judgment. If he had known, he would not have dared to make a move against the Knights of the Holy Judgment, and he would have run as fast as a rabbit.
Commander Larry Harold was anxious to capture Pritz as soon as possible, but the march did not go as smoothly as he had imagined.
As a family of priests within the Cult of Light, Larry Harold can be said to have been born with a golden spoon in his mouth. Especially after Harold showed extraordinary talent, he was immediately sent to the church to receive elite training, coupled with his family's many efforts, he finally squeezed out all the competitors at the age of less than thirty years old and ascended to the position of head of the Knights of Holy Judgment.
Harold, who got carried away after climbing to a high position, really offended a lot of high-ranking people in the Bright Sect, and he made many mistakes at a young age, and he couldn't even protect his family. If Cardinal Owen hadn't been anxious to establish his own power within the church and control a military force of his own, I am afraid that Harold would have been trampled into the mud by his opponents.
The Order of the Holy Judgment is a new order of Knights formed by His Majesty St. Francisco, the current Pope, assembled by many gifted knights of the Church, with the mission of chasing down the powerful evil mages and all those who dare to oppose the Church of Light.
Due to the short time of establishment and the fact that the head of the regiment, Harold, is also an inexperienced rookie, many details are far from the Knights of Light, which also leads to the reason why Harold looks at Captain Ian quite unpleasantly and opposes him everywhere.
Now, for example, it was noon, and after the heavy rain, it was the hottest time, and the blazing sun was scorching the ground with impunity, and Harold asked the knights to march. In addition, out of the problem of face, the war horses equipped by the Knights of the Holy Judgment are all high-headed horses, which belong to the horse breed with strong impact and explosive power but poor endurance. So the whole Order had barely walked a few miles before Harold realized his stupidity.
Not to mention the others, even Cardinal Owen, who was not familiar with military affairs, sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked Harold to stop the march and re-encamp, and set off after escaping the summer heat.
Foxes are the same.
The first thing the knights did when they set up camp was to find a nearby water source, and there was nothing more refreshing on a hot day than a cool and sweet spring. When the Adjudicator Knights pulled the water cart and carried the buckets of spring water back to the camp, Swift, who was far behind them, smiled like a fox who had stolen a chicken.
The Plague Poison is a very rapidly spreading toxin newly developed by the Gray Bone Sect in recent years by combining herbal alchemy and undead curse science. It has both the concealment of alchemical poison and the powerful effect of the curse of the undead. Even the Judgment Knights were unaware of the presence of the toxin after casting the Divine Verification spell.
As knights, it is very natural to take care of their companion horses, so the knights not only enjoyed the sweet spring water themselves, but even fed the spring water to their horses, which also made the poison of the plague spread more rapidly in the barracks.
