Chapter 768: Stay Here
If the cavalry of the Knights of Light, numbering at two thousand, were in the plains, this would definitely be an elite force with a very strong impact. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After all, in order to build this army, Alfonso has made a bloody investment, and he originally planned to use this descendant army to carve out a career.
However, with the defeat of the Imperial Civil War, Rhaegar was forced to return to the Holy City in embarrassment, and he only had this only descendant to mobilize in the Holy City.
This time, in order to quickly end the adverse consequences of Griff's strategic missteps, he decisively chose to take the initiative and went to Shadow City to attack.
As long as he succeeds in killing the kid who came thousands of miles from the far east of the empire, it will be at the cost of the sacrifice of the entire Knights of Light.
Alfonso also thought it was worth it, because only then could he wreak havoc on the Dark See, strangling them in the cradle.
After all, once the Dark Holy See rises, it will shake the foundation of the entire Church, and the chain reaction will not be something that he can bear as a cardinal.
Inside the Holy City of Light, Alfonso stood on the clock tower and looked at the tower to the north, which was so far away under normal circumstances.
The Tower of Darkness shouldn't have been seen, but because of the power of faith and the presence of the blazing black fire at the top of the tower, the Tower of Darkness could be presented to everyone in the land, Alfonso clenched his fists, he was usually standing here with Austin.
"Austin, you are my confidant, I have high hopes for you, you must remember your mission, complete your mission, and don't let me down, as long as the dark fire is extinguished, then our church can still rule this land. ”
"No one can pose a threat to us, and I will once again be greatly promoted in the Holy City because of this merit, but if I fail, although there is still no one who can affect my status for the time being, the Church of Light will be in a very difficult situation. ”
"These parasites sleeping in the darkness are just shivering in fear, and it's disgusting to have to run out and make waves, and that kid, he stays honestly in the Empire, whether as his Duke of the Far East or as the Emperor of the Empire. ”
"We don't have river water in the well, even if that guy Gregor does something stupid, it's his personal action, as long as you don't come to the western continent, we won't move people to the empire, at least ...... Not in the last ten years, but you're going to come here to die!"
Alfonso watched with hatred at the tall tower that had appeared, and below the bell tower, there was already a steady stream of soldiers in silver armor gathering.
The dense crowd of soldiers gathered together into a torrent, and they began to transport the huge logs and boulders to the top of the castle tower by zipline.
The appearance of the Dark Tower gave them a sense of crisis, even if there was still the possibility that Austin would defeat Shadowcity and successfully kill the Children of Darkness.
But they also had to prepare for the worst, the Holy City of Light, a city that had not been conquered in hundreds of years.
Beginning to prepare for a new war, the storm that is about to burn the prairie is imminent, and this is a catastrophe that no one can avoid.
At the same time, in Shadow City, the cavalry of the 2,000-strong Knights of Light divided into four groups and began to search for Lin Ye's whereabouts.
Even if you can't find him as the culprit, at least you have to find someone else to find out the news, there is not much time left for them, and this matter must be closed in the shortest possible time, no matter what the cost, after all, the enemy's cavalry is already in the process of galloping on horseback.
Once the Far Eastern cavalry under Lancelot arrived, the Knights of Light would be at a disadvantage in terms of combat power and numbers.
"Damn, how does this thousand-mile raid look like he is killing himself? Did Chief Austin think about this, or did he deliberately do this because he knew that it was an act of seeking death? As a commander, he has to think about the life and death of our subordinates!"
Okafor, one of Austin's henchmen, led five hundred cavalry to search the right side of Shadowtown, and he was very unhappy on the way.
They had been in the royal capital of the empire, not to mention how happy they were, and with Rhaegar ascending to the throne, the future was bright.
After all, they all grew up on the land of the empire, and they were also trained by soldiers recruited from the believers of the empire.
They didn't have a strong sense of belonging to the Bright Holy City, especially during the period when Alfonso was defeated and retreated from the Holy City, they were fed up with white eyes.
In this case, Austin reassured them more than once, telling them that there would be a day when they would make a comeback, and that such days would pass.
However, what was in front of them this time was a situation in which they were left alone, and no matter whether the task was successfully carried out or not, they could not escape the situation of death.
How could Okafor and the others accept this? This feeling of anger and uneasiness was directly reflected in his face, and he sped up his speed.
"This Shadow City is really huge, is it really possible to find a person in such a big city? And why didn't anyone see it? There was a figure just now, but now...... Hmm? Is the road ahead blocked again? Turn around and go back. ”
Okafor gallops through the wide streets, lined with neatly laid out two- to four-story buildings with few gaps.
Just when he chased to the end, he found that not only was there nothing, but the road ahead was also full of roadblocks, and there was no way to move forward.
He could only order to turn around and go back to pursue somewhere else, for in such a huge city, five hundred men was too insignificant.
"Since you're here, don't think about leaving, otherwise it will seem that we are too inhospitable, sorry, such imposing words are not from me, but from the Duke's original words, so you all stay here, don't even think about leaving, intercept them all!"
Just as Okafor turned his horse's head to leave, dozens of ropes suddenly pulled up on both sides of the street, causing them to turn on their backs.
"Who's it? all of them come out for me, huh? is this...... Oops, did you fall into the trap, damn it, what should I do now?"
Okafor was angry, and a large number of people in black robes suddenly appeared on the houses on both sides of the street, and these people Okafor was not afraid.
What terrified him was that these people were all armed with bows and arrows, and there were thousands of archers in a dense crowd, at least twice as many as them!
With them blocked in the alley and unable to break through at either end, they simply became a live target for these archers.
The same scene was playing out in different parts of Shadow City, and the divided Knights of Light were all subdued by the black-robed believers!
