Volume 2 Memories of the Dream Chapter 162 Reinforcements

The warm morning sun shines through the glass of the church dome, shining on the devotional maiden.

On the wall opposite the Maiden, there are no statues of gods, only murals symbolizing the struggle of the French people for freedom.

The frescoes have the story of Jolchos, a hero of the Roman Empire, who killed a poisonous dragon with a holy sword and rescued the people......

There is the story of Queen Mary of France who single-handedly reduced the royal family's expenses to help the poor......

There is a story of Napoleon leading the people to establish the First French Empire, countering the invasion of foreign enemies and defending France's free will......

There is also the story of the establishment of the Paris Commune by the French people in modern times in their struggle for freedom and democracy......

It seems that there is a written record that began to take place in this land, and all the good virtues of yearning for freedom, benevolence, democracy, and hope are recorded in these frescoes.

The girl's eyes were closed, and her long golden hair shimmered with wisps of light, and a faint golden glow kept converging on her skin.

Under the sunlight, her whole body exudes layers of halos, like the most holy goddess who has come out of mythology.

The soft light is projected on the mural, outlining a figure in the painting, and the lines of the characters seem to emit wisps of golden light, and the expressions of the heroes, soldiers, and people in the painting become vivid and natural, as if they come to life.

The firm will to fight for freedom, ideals and justice seems to penetrate through the mural.

"Crunch!"

The doors of the church were pushed open, and a middle-aged knight walked in, the door closing behind him.

Looking at the girl praying in the morning light, his eyes revealed an unconcealable fanaticism, that look was like facing a god of faith, and in this fanaticism, there was a trace of imperceptible admiration.

He walked behind the girl and knelt down on one knee: "Your Highness, the Knights have split, the pro-sect knights led by Tobin have publicly declared their acceptance of the leadership of the Holy See, and the First Knight Roland has launched a crusade against them afterwards. ”

When the maiden had finished praying, she stood up and turned to face the knight, but her closed eyes remained unopened.

As she got up, the glittering light on the mural vanished, and she fell into peace.

The term "Holy Virgin" is used all over the world, but in France, it represents only one person, and that is Joan of Arc.

"Jill." The girl spoke, and her voice was like a beautiful note: "Gather the Holy Sisters and the Holy Guard, and be ready for emergencies at all times, and the safety of the French people must be the first priority." ”

"Your Highness, are you going to launch a crusade against Tobin too?"

The blonde girl shook her head: "The dispute of the Knights is an internal matter of the Knights, as long as Tobin's actions do not threaten the people, we are inconvenient to intervene, I believe that Roland will deal with everything, our real threat comes from the outside." ”

The middle-aged knight raised his head and looked at the holy girl: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, you mean that there will be external forces to intervene in this civil strife of the Knights. ”

"I also hope my guess is wrong, however, this is something that will happen." The girl remained calm, as if there would be no mood swings in her: "Go and prepare, Jill." ”

The middle-aged knight lowered his head:

"Follow your will, Your Highness!"

............

"The whole army assembles and organizes the defensive line!" Roland roared.

He looked up, his otherwise luster blonde hair soaked with sweat against his handsome face, and the equally embarrassed Leonard and Oliver rode beside him.

The remnants of the knights quickly rallied behind him, all covered in mud and smoke.

Under the attack of Salomon and Tobin, Roland's army suffered heavy losses, and when Roland was pinned down by Tobin, Oliver and Leonard desperately destroyed the opponent's chariot equipped with psychic cannons, and then gathered the scattered army and retreated to Paris.

Although more than half of the knights under their command were dissolved, most of the knights survived, and they were not without the strength to fight in the face of the pursuing enemy.

"This is less than thirty miles away from Paris, and if the rebels enter Paris, our country will not know what fate it will experience, and we will have no way back!" Roland said to the knight behind him: "For the sake of the people, for the sake of France, it's time to fulfill the oath we took when we became knights!" ”

"For the people!"

"For France!"

"For the Knight's Oath!"

All the knights raised their swords and let out a roar, their wills condensed like never before.

The pursuing enemy did not pause in the slightest, and they still used the mutated demonic beasts as the vanguard, and rushed towards Roland's knights like a tide.

"Prepare to charge!"

The knights pulled down their armors, tightened their reins, and waited for the commander's order to launch a decisive charge, and in the face of impending death, none of them chose to flinch.

Roland stood with his knights, his palms drenched in the holy sword Bran Dahl drenched in sweat, his eyes fixed on Tobin rushing at the front, the only enemy he needed to deal with was this man called the archbishop.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

At this moment, in the rear of the Roland Legion, the endless artillery roared, and one after another rockets dragged up long smoke tails and blasted into the group of demonic beasts, and the flames of the explosion continued to form a patch.

This was in an instant, and the artillery caused an indiscriminate covering attack on the front position, and the demonic beasts below the third order immediately suffered heavy losses, and the powerful demonic beasts above the third order also received varying degrees of damage.

The indomitable momentum of the charging monsters was instantly frustrated, and Tobin controlled his legion to stop, otherwise, they would immediately be counter-charged by the knights under Roland's command, and the scattered military formation that had just encountered the heavy fire attack would be chiseled through in an instant, and then the charging knights would use the terrifying mobility and impact to divide and annihilate.

At this moment, Tobin encountered Roland's previous embarrassment, he couldn't intercept these fire attacks, and when his qi machine locked on Roland, Roland's qi machine was also locked on his body at all times.

A huge roar came behind Roland, and hundreds of rocket artillery fighting vehicles, armored vehicles, and tanks appeared behind them, and among these large numbers of modern equipment, there were also two or three hundred knights and knights on war horses, which seemed a little out of place.

There was a sound of wings vibrating, and two handsome eagles appeared in the sky above the Roland Army formation.

Astolfo and the Maiden Knight control the phantom beast and slowly descend.

As soon as he landed, he rushed to Roland, his face full of eagerness:

"Roland, are you alright?"
