Even if they had already prepared for the worst in their hearts, Alysina and Neham did not expect the Befast Grand Guild to fall into its own accord, and like everyone else, they looked at the magical projection in the sky and were a little overwhelmed, while Francesca, as the high priest, reflexively turned back to the Hall of Glory. Before the high priest who followed him could say anything, he saw Francesca, who was usually gentle and showy, swelling with amazing divine power, and slammed straight into the metal clock that adorned the top of the dome.

The distant bell accompanied by the impact of divine power, spread outward, and after a while, the entire royal city heard the sound from the Dawn Headquarters, this bell with obvious awakening meaning, combined with the scene in the sky, made the whole city fall into an unprecedented panic, people packed their clothes and money, and some people didn't even care about their belongings, ran straight to the city gate, intending to escape from the royal city that became the next Grantham Fortress at some point.

Neam, who was finishing the investigation, heard the bell and hurried back to the main hall, and he asked Arisina with a panicked face for advice: What is the High Priest doing?

Before Alysina could speak, a corner of the hall suddenly heard the sound of creaking gears turning, and the candle-filled lampholder slowly sank, revealing a dark passage for only one person to enter and exit.

Neham, who was about to step forward to check, stopped his steps after seeing an old man emerge from the passage, wearing a simple white robe, although his face was thin and deformed, Neham still recognized it at a glance, it was the last great priest before Arisina ...... Didn't he already pass away? Back then, he also attended the funeral of the former high priest.

In the corners, in the columns, and in the candlesticks, hidden passages were opened one after another, and the people who walked out were getting older than the other, and some of them looked like dried corpses, and even one of them was completely ossified. Only a thin layer of dead black skin remained on top of the bone.

If it weren't for the Temple of Dawn, Neam would have wondered if he had stumbled into the Lich's lair.

From three to two, to dense, soon, the brightly lit hall was filled with dead bodies.

The knights standing guard in the hall retreated behind Neham with trepidation, looking at the walking corpses with a look of horror. Rao has been fighting the undead all year round, and they are also very scared. This scene was so strange that none of the people present dared to ask, and it was the high priest himself who finally broke the silence.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation has become so dire that I have to ask you to help. ”

Francesca folded her hands in her wide sleeves, bent slightly, and performed a standard dawn ritual towards the corpses gathered around her, which once again stunned, shocked, and questioned the already skeptical knights. The sounds of incomprehensible conversation came and went.

The earthly spokesperson of the dawn actually saluted the dead?!

After the initial stunned, Neam quickly reacted.

These dead men, unmarked and dressed in simple mourning robes, are supposed to be the top secret of the Dawn Cult - only the sages of the Dawn who have made extraordinary contributions and are deeply favored by the Dawn can be allowed to enter the burial ground. Since the fall of the Great Holy Hall, no one has seen the previous high priests and high priests who were originally enshrined in the burial ground, and it is rumored that they were flooded by the storm sea along with the Great Holy Hall, but they did not expect them to hide under the main hall that was enshrined as the altar of the morning sun. This hidden force. Its power is no less than that of the entire Dawn Regiment, and it is not a last resort. It will not be taken lightly.

Suppressing his doubts, Neham and Alysina saluted the sages. The former high priest and the high priest who were long dead, and only the souls attached to the body did not look at the group of people behind them, only staring at Francesca.

"The Witch King's frost has infiltrated more than ever, and even this new capital in the rear has not escaped his control. The high priest's calm voice recounted the events of the night one by one: "The Archduke of Befast has been tempted to fall. The Silver Empire has lost hope of its final reformation, and the whereabouts of Link, the Child of Nature summoned by the Pillar from the Otherworld, are unknown, and I need your strength to defend humanity and the last barrier of life on this continent. ”

The dead could not speak, and the sages, who had long since died, bowed their heads slightly, and gave the high priest a sacrifice. Then. These corpses were like lit candles, one after another emitting a bright but not dazzling light, and the original candle-lit hall was as bright as its name, shining brightly, illuminating the new capital of Aiden, which was still late at night, as if it were day.

Suddenly, the magic transmission entrenched over the royal city was cut off, as warm as the warmth of the winter sun dispelled the fear in people's hearts, and Francesca's unhurried voice gave an answer to the frost's provocation - Grantham was lost, the Archduke of Befast had fallen, and the human front positions were lost, and from now on all humans retreated to the new capital, waiting for the next attack of the undead.

The proclamation makes no mention of the missing Link and the recently re-concluded anti-undead alliance, and the meaning is clear, this is a separate decision of the human race represented by Dawn for the time being.

Under the influence of the Dawn Divine Power, the restless people who had been bewitched by the magic transmission finally calmed down, and the gate guards also guarded the gate that had been attacked by civilians with the assistance of the reinforced Sect Knights, and the dawn finally declared the sleepless night over.

The huge divine power made the entire Radiant Hall like a furnace in summer, and Arisina and Neham, who were high-level disciples, couldn't stand the heat and retreated. The two looked at each other, both puzzled by the High Priest's approach.

The undead are not yet approaching, so why does Francesca have to sacrifice the last killer weapon so early? Isn't this tantamount to telling the world that mankind has only one last way left to defend the new capital?

Before they could figure it out, Francesca, who was still stranded in the Hall of Glory, suddenly called out the name of Neam.

"From now on, you will succeed you as Knight Master of the Knights of the Dawn, and once I die, you will be the new High Priest. ”

"Priest!" Alysina exclaimed, but there was no response in the hall except for the increasing divine power.

Neam silently accepted the appointment that had been known for many years in the eyes of the other members of the Order and the Cultists who had rushed to hear the news, and the corner of his eye swept the crowd, but he did not find Rams, the former Knight Master who had just been removed.

A thought suddenly flashed through my mind, could it ...... No, no matter how confused Rams is, he wouldn't do that.

However. Francesca's abrupt appointment forced him to consider that Rams might have done just that.

Since the establishment of the Dawn Cult, the positions of the priesthood have only been promoted and not demoted, and there is only one reason for the non-death dismissal - the loss of the divine favor. In these extraordinary times, the High Priest publicly appointed Neuham as the new Knight Chief, which was tantamount to acknowledging the loss of affirmation favor from the former Knight of the Dawn. Think deeper. He may have been the one who started this magical projection.

The soldiers who can hide from the changing of the guard and the knights who have been checked from the fixed can only be done by those who are very familiar with the operation of the sect, and Rams's identity and position are exactly in line with these two points. Neam was unwilling but unwilling to face the responsibility of personally removing himself as a swordsman, even if he lost the favor of the gods, the former head of the regiment had swordsmanship skills comparable to his own, and the others went to hunt him down only for nothing, not to mention, it was not certain whether he had turned to the blessing of the gods.

"The whole city is under martial law, and Rams Hutton is classified as a wanted person. Inform me immediately if there is news of him!" The first order after taking office was to hunt down the former regimental commander, and the newly baked current regimental commander pulled out a bitter smile that no one noticed, glanced at the bright hall that was as bright as a flame, and walked away quickly under the watchful eye of Arisina who wanted to say nothing and stopped.

On this night, the three Wilfredo, who were temporarily living in the Adventurers' Guild, also saw the magic transmission like the rest of the people in the royal city, and if Link's best friend, the fall of Befast was shocking, then the order of the High Priest from the Dawn Sect terrified them.

"I had a very bad premonition. "The one who said this is not a mage. It's a dwarf who has nothing to do with magic or foresight.

Wilfredo and Wengers didn't bother to tease Campano, and they paced back and forth in the room. A finger subconsciously clicked on the table, and he knew in his heart that such a big thing was such a big thing, and Aiden City was afraid that he would not be able to leave. Magic Shadow is a short-range spell, and even if it is made into a prop, it is still a short-range item, and it cannot be controlled thousands of miles away. The person who played the video was still in the city, and the Dawn Sect would never let the traitors under their noses go unpunished. The lockdown is only the first step, and the investigators will come soon, and Bridge's face and power are not big enough to be pardoned without telling the truth, especially ...... Wilfredo is still a wanted man on charges of treason with the enemy. Collusion with the undead.

"Let's go!"

Bridge pushed the door open, followed by two members of the Shadow Thorns.

"Lucas has agreed to protect you, as long as you enter the sphere of influence of the Thorn of Shadows, under Malik's protection, even the Cult of Dawn will not be able to detect you. ”

Wilfredo didn't move, just looked at Bridge.

I haven't seen him for many years, and my grandfather is much older than in the past, and he is a little different from the white fox in his memory.

"Hurry! When the order of martial law comes down from the whole city, you will not be able to leave. ”

After Wilfredo and his party entered the city, Bridge informed the Dawn Sect of their identities, and now that Link has disappeared, the alliance with the Dawn Sect is invalid, not to mention Link's subordinates, and now that the Archduke of Befast has fallen, even Link himself is suspected.

"The Dawn Sect knows that we are here with you, if we leave...... Wilfredo hesitated, these years, the adventurer's union has also been in the twilight of the empire, no longer glorious in the past, it is a big blow to the once high-spirited Bridge, finally improved, can no longer be dragged down by himself.

"President......" whispered to the man watching the wind downstairs.

The two assassins disappeared in an instant, Bridge's hand holding Wilfredo's hand suddenly tightened, he slowly turned around, followed the eyes of the three people in the room and looked behind him, and Neuham, dressed in gold armor, appeared outside the door, and read out Wilfredo's current identity with a solemn expression:

"Church of Nature Temple Samurai Wilfredo, I've been ordered to investigate the traitors lurking in the royal city, so come with me. (To be continued......)
