When he saw the black dot in the distance, the cardinal couldn't help but be shocked, the gray pupils in his eyes suddenly constricted into a small dot, and he secretly said in his heart: Not good~!

The number of enemies far exceeded his expectations.

"This ...... How is this possible?" the cardinal's right hand, holding the staff, trembled.

How is it possible that the enemy still has so many war bastions?

The Holy See's spies lurking on the front line were clearly detected, and after a series of battles and bombardment by lightning squadrons, the undead should now have only a war fortress in their early 100s on their hands.

These forces are capable of holding back the air power of the Maple Leaf Danlin.

And according to the pre-war deduction, those war fortresses will definitely go to attack the Maple Leaf Danlin, even if they know that they can't fight it, they have to go.

Although the people of Maple Leaf Danlin are all damned intellectuals and arrogant mages, they are extremely belligerent in their bones, and they will be retribution, and they will be slashed back with a knife when they are glared at, and there is never a lack of offensive spirits.

Even if they pee, they have to go as far away as possible. This alone can know what kind of virtue they are.

If the undead don't take the initiative to attack the Maple Leaf Danlin, they will contain the power of the Maple Leaf Danlin. Then Maple Leaf Danlin will take the initiative to attack and stage another good show of bombing Ryder City.

Although Maple Leaf Danlin Academy does not have its own intelligence system, they use the intelligence system of the Flying Eagle Group.

Those puppies don't eat dry food, they all have hands and eyes to the sky, and they are well-informed. Even the high priest found out who he summoned every day.

Once the demon clan reveals a flaw, the Maple Leaf Danlin people will definitely seize the opportunity without hesitation, pounce on it and give the undead clan another blow. And it will definitely be more ruthless than the last bombardment.

Therefore, even if the undead knew that the Maple Leaf Danlin was a flesh-devouring war millstone, they would have to jump into it.

In addition, the undead must leave enough air defense forces in Ryder City to defend against Lorraine's flying wing, so it counts. The High Priest of the Dead should not have spare any extra war fortresses to support the Semitic army.

According to the estimates of the Holy See's Templar Legion, even if the enemy can get reinforcements from the war fortress, it will be in the single digits, and the clergy of the Holy See should be able to deal with it.

But the number of war fortresses that suddenly appeared in front of them greatly exceeded everyone's expectations.

In the war that swept the continent a thousand years ago, the undead clan was full of battles, and there were only about thirty war fortresses.

At that time, that number alone was enough to make humanity despair.

In the early days of the war. The undead only need to use a few war fortresses, which is enough to make hundreds of thousands of human armies helpless, and they will be driven away like rabbits on the battlefield.

It wasn't until the mage and the priest risked their lives to join forces that things got a little better.

"More than I expected...... cardinal," the cardinal smiled bitterly.

Looking at the dense figure of the sky war fortress. They formed a dark cloud in mid-air, looking down on the entire city of Rotgaron.

The cardinal looked at it briefly, and there were about a hundred.

The powerful force in front of him was probably enough to wipe out any city on the continent.

He couldn't help but sigh: The high priest really looks down on me. Rather risk being raided in the rear, than attack my line.

At this time, a chief priest stepped forward with a panicked expression and said in a trembling voice, "Great ...... My lord, the enemy's power is too large, should we hide for the time being......"

The cardinal stared at him coldly.

The chief priest suddenly felt a chill in his heart. The rest of the words could not be said again. At that moment, he almost thought that if he said one more word, the cardinal would kill him on the spot.

At this time, the cardinal god was relieved, then smiled bitterly, and said, "My dear chief priest. Where else can we escape?"

He gestured helplessly to the Templars of the Holy See, who were chasing the enemy outside the city. "Do you want us to leave them behind?" ”

The chief priest froze suddenly, speechless.

Running away is a felony.

The Holy See is not an army, and it usually turns a blind eye to the clergy's corruption, bribery, and doing things that are very pornographic, violent, and rarely inappropriate. However, on the issue of right and wrong, there has never been ambiguity.

What is blasphemous, spreading paganism, fleeing from battle...... It has always been handed over to the Inquisition.

Those bitches are a bunch of perverts. He has always been more ruthless to his own people than to his enemies.

I went in, first what kind of chili water tiger chair, iron virgin, Manchu ten tortures or something, to serve people comfortably, and then put on the cross. Set it on fire and make it a fragrant barbecue.

Therefore, inspired by the murderous weapon of the Inquisition, the clergy priests were all unusually clear-headed. Although he is usually greedy, bribed, and molesting a woman or a man, he can always stand firm and unwavering on issues related to major issues of right and wrong.

Dare to shake it and try, the underworld forces of those guys in the Inquisition are also pervasive throughout the Holy See.

Seeing that the chief priest stopped talking, the cardinal couldn't help but take a deep breath, calm down, and then looked back at the group of priests and priests dressed in white behind him, and raised his voice: "We are God's servants, we are the propagators of light, today is the time to prove our faith in God, this is our battlefield."

For the light~!"

"For the light~!" the clergy behind him immediately raised their right hands and shouted loudly.

Behind the cardinal, all the clergy from several nearby dioceses gathered, numbering in the thousands, mostly from the local temple.

And in the Holy See, the lower the clergy, the stronger their faith.

In the face of the undead clan's overwhelming Xing's advantage, these priests did not flinch, and the first thing they thought of was the battle.

Even a heroic death in battle with the dark Ones is the highest glory for them.

"For the light~!" thousands of clergy shouted in unison.

Their loud voices seemed to have a magical power, instantly boosting the morale of the defenders in the city.

The loud voice pierced through the hustle and bustle of the battlefield and clearly reached the ears of the knights in front.

When the knights saw the war fortress in the sky, they were also a little shaken at first, but when they heard the loud shout, their eyes suddenly shone with determination.

The first rule of the knightly code is to fear God and defend the light with life and blood.

If you are faced with a strong enemy. Don't dare to fight, then they are not worthy of being called knights.

The glorious and noble Holy See is defended by the blood of the knights.

The ancestors of the past had proved their loyalty with their blood, and now, finally, it was their turn.

Dying on the battlefield is the best destination for a knight.

Therefore, they also raised their weapons one after another and shouted: "For the light~!"

Even if darkness would cover the earth today. But tomorrow the light will come.

Just like the war a thousand years ago, in the future, poetry about them will inevitably be sung by countless people.

"For the light~!"

"For the light~!"

“......”

The shouts came together. It resounded through the heavens and the earth like the raging waves of the sea.

In the midst of that shout, a sharp and piercing voice came from mid-air: "Then it will be done for you~!"

A black figure hovered in the sky opposite the cardinal, a cold ghostly fire flickering in the white bone skull.

The lich waved his hand down vigorously and screamed, "Kill, kill, kill them all~!"

Like wasps rushing out of the hive, a steady stream of dark mages flew out from hundreds of war fortresses above Rotgaron's head, screaming and rushing towards the priesthood on the ground.

As two professions that are as strong as fire and water. Dark mages and clerics hate each other's tastes from the bottom of their bones.

The Undead War Fortress changed direction, turning around and flying towards the Holy Protector Legion who were pursuing the enemy outside the city.

"Holy Light~!"

"Purification~!"

"Heaven Guardian~!"

“......”

The cries of the clergy were endless.

Dazzling holy spells rose from the ground and collided with the dark mages falling from the sky, and the two energies, one black and one white, clashed fiercely above Rothgaron's head.

The brilliant light was transmitted dozens of miles away.

xxxxx

The city of Delong, 700 miles away from Rothgaron.

Ram, Cardinal Sandos wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, looked at the black muddy water flowing on the back of his hand, and sighed helplessly.

I secretly said in my heart: I must be very wolf now. Why is it still so hot in October?

Cardinal Sandos tightened his reins, took a large gulp of water from his saddle, and watched the legions of the Knights of the Templar Pass pass by him.

They marched in two rows along the avenue with neat steps, and strode towards the west, guided by the banner of the Golden Sè Cross.

These papal knights had dark faces, rough skin, and their clothes were covered with dust.

The Templar's burqa in white sè has also turned gray sè. It seems that they are dusty, and at a glance, they can tell that they have been on the road for a long time.

The roadside was crowded with onlookers who looked in amazement at this group of mighty soldiers.

Someone asked, "What are you going to do?"

The soldiers would reply loudly: "Let's go fight the demons~!"

"Go kick the undead High Priest's ass~!"

“......”

Whenever this happens, soldiers will merrily sing their own songs, satirizing and laughing at the undead and the undead high priest.

Every now and then, there is always a burst of hearty laughter.

Although all the way from the Bair area of the Great Rear. Walked thousands of miles, slept in the open air,

It was raining and the conditions were difficult, but the morale of the soldiers of the Holy See under his command was still high.

This made Cardinal Sandos very satisfied, and let the world see that these were soldiers he had trained, and all of them were Jing Rui.

After the Almohads' conquest of Haddou, Sandos, a shining star in the Holy See, immediately became the target of Vatino's key training.

Although there is no way to compare with Shilmelia, the daughter of the gods, she is promoted to cardinal at the age of thirty, which is rare in history.

Moreover, at the same time, he was also ordered to be responsible for the collection and organization of a regular army of 100,000 men in the Bayer area, with him as commander. Cope with the coming big war.

Cardinal Sandos has become a close confidant of Pope Neodos, and he is covered by Lord Lorraine, which can be described as a triumphant style.

And Sandos is also determined to repay the kindness of His Majesty the Pope.

Without Sylmeria's support during this critical period, he might not have been able to withstand the tremendous pressure. became a deserter like a coward, and then spent his life in the jokes of everyone with a body of infamy.

The thought of that situation sent shudders to Santos.

After receiving the order, Cardinal Sandos threw himself into his work with full enthusiasm, eating, lodging and training in the barracks, mingling with the soldiers. It's undressing and pushing food again, and it's shushing the cold and asking for warmth. Anyway, how disgusting it is. Finally won the respect and love of all the soldiers.

One of the regiments he had originally led was dismantled and distributed to additional troops, and the whole army was trained in the way of veterans leading new recruits.

Having fought wars, especially after so many defeats, Cardinal Sandos has a deep understanding of war.

Knowing that fighting a war is not enough by bravery and enthusiasm alone. War is a very professional matter that involves all aspects.

The recruiting, marshalling, training, feeding of the soldiers, giving them suitable clothes and armor, the training and plain zhì of the officers.

How to improve logistics, if you get intelligence about the enemy...... Waiting for these things outside of combat is just as important as directing the battle.

Even the camping and drinking water have a lot of professional knowledge.

After more than half a year of training. He succeeded in turning these Templars into qualified soldiers, rather than a group of knights from all sides, a rabble.

The Templars themselves have a good foundation, no matter how they say it, they are regular knights who have obtained certificates after several years of assessment, and in order to ensure their combat effectiveness, the Holy See also trains and assesses them every year.

Hence it. The task of Sandos and the officers was quite simple, just to teach them how to fight together like soldiers, unlike the dead civilians who came from Lazhuang Dingla, it took a month just to turn left and right.

Therefore, judging from the appearance of the Bayer legionnaires and the marching ranks, the Bayer legion that Santos is now commanding should be among the top few among the Templars of the Holy See.

It's not that Cardinal Sandos is modest. The Holy See is so big, there are many people in it, and there are many capable and related people.

The Archbishop of Sè Sali, Delphi, Cardinal of Kalambaka, was also a man of military talent. The skills are much more powerful than those of him, who is a halfway monk.

Sandos dared to say that the army of the Sè Sally district must not be worse than him.

Looking at the steady stream of soldiers driving in front of him, Sandos smiled with satisfaction and said loudly, "Brothers, work harder, Cardinal Evari is waiting for our support. ”

"Yes~!" the officer beside him shouted, "Brothers, get up, the first person to arrive in Delong will have a bed to sleep." ”

The soldiers who had been sleeping in the open for more than half a month were shocked when they heard this, and they threw off their strides and walked forward, Delong was in front of them, of course, their 100,000 soldiers could not all live in Delong City, and they couldn't fit so many people.

Only a lucky few can get a comfortable bed in the city, not to mention more than just a bed.

Being in town means being able to grab a drink in a pub, go to a restaurant for a good meal, or ...... Wander around the city's red light district.

Of course, those who can only be stationed outside the city do not have this treatment.

The eager soldiers even ran briskly past their companions, causing a shout of scolding from those around them.

Several legions in front scrambled towards Delon.

Sandos smiled slightly, kicked the horse's belly and was about to move forward, when a team of wolf-bèi knights rushed towards him.

Their armor is painted with a striking gold cross, indicating that they are also Templars of the Holy See.

But each of these people was wounded, and their heads, arms, and legs were wrapped in gauze. The armor was covered with slashes from sharp blades, and stains of dark red blood.

There was also a man behind him who was fastened to the horse's back with a rope, apparently unconscious, with two feathered arrows on his back.

At a glance, these people have all experienced fierce battles, and even the war horses are bloodstained.

The officer of the Baier Legion, who led them over, stepped forward and saluted, "Your Excellency, they have asked to see your Excellency." ”

A middle-aged knight led by him came to the front and slowly raised his injured arm, and said, "We are the captain of the Kino Brigade of the 63rd Regiment in the Rothgaron District, may I ask, are you the lord?"

The scars on the knights' bodies were shocking, and Sandos chuckled in his heart, this is not a good sign, and he said in a deep voice, "I am the commander of the Bayer Legion. Rotgalon ...... What happened?"

"It turned out to be Santos-sama. Kino bowed down on his horse, his tone was a little excited, and said, "Rotgaron, Rotgaron is gone." ”

"What~!" Santos blurted out in surprise and said in a loud voice: "How is it possible?"

Keno had a sad expression on his face and said, "The demons have gathered hundreds of war fortresses, and we ...... them."

Sandos muttered: "Hundreds, shouldn't there be so many~!"

Intelligence doesn't mean they only have a hundred left. ”

Kino affirmed, "My lord, this is what we saw with our own eyes. ”

Sandos anxiously asked, "Where is Cardinal Evari, my lord?" and what are the hundreds of thousands of people in Rothgaron?"

"My lord, I should have ......" Kino glanced back at the West and said bitterly, "Martyred." The last time we see the adult, he is surrounded by a group of dark mages.

In the entire Rothgaron Legion, there may only be a few of us left. ”

Sandos's mind went blank in an instant, more than 100,000 people in the diocese of Rotgalon were actually wiped out, and the Vatino also thought that without a fortress of war, it was impossible for the enemy to break through Rotgalon lightly, plus the 100,000 people of the Bayer Legion, it should be no problem to block the enemy thousands of miles away from the Vatino.

Now it seems that their estimates are too optimistic.

"What to do, what to do?" Sandos asked himself repeatedly in his mind, his brain was in a mess at the moment, and he couldn't think of anything.

"Your Excellency, your Excellency. The guard next to him carefully pushed Santos, and the soldiers next to him also stopped, looking at their commander in surprise and uneasiness.

Santos was suddenly shocked, came to his senses, and said hurriedly: "How far is the enemy from us?"

"The war fortress is ready to arrive at any time," Kino said with a worried expression, "Demon army, two days, three days at most." ”

Sandos turned his head and stared at Delon's city walls, feeling quite strange about his actions for a moment.

But in the next moment, he suddenly understood: now~!here~!This is the last line of defense before the Vatino.

And he and his Bayer legion are the only papal forces blocking between the Vatino and the demon army~!

Thinking of this, Sandos shuddered, his mind suddenly flashed, and he said loudly: "Find the nearest telegraph station and send a letter to the Vatino~!"

The strikers doubled their forces and reconnoitred forward. The army immediately entered the city.

Order the whole army, the demons are about to be killed, no matter what, we must defend Delong City and buy time for Vatino~!"
