Chapter 209: Notre Dame Cathedral
"yes, I said something was wrong." Fluttershy's words remind the sea of clouds that, indeed, there are very few troops on the ground, and a small castle should not be able to hold so many soldiers, so where will they be?
The sea of clouds, which was puzzled, couldn't help but lie on the railing, looking at the city of Paris in the twilight, in which the silver dragon of Akali was still wildly spraying the dragon's breath like a blizzard into the windows of the castle, gilding the dark castle with a layer of silver white.
"It seems that the castle will be captured soon......" Yun Hai nodded secretly, his eyes turned to the street near the castle, and suddenly found that a sneaky soldier suddenly opened a cover leading to the ground, and then got in!
"That's ...... sewer?"
Yunhai has long heard of the sewer system in Paris, it is said that the sewer system under the city of Paris extends in all directions, covering thousands of kilometers, not so much a sewer, but an underground city, with the same complexity as Paris on the ground.
A bolt of lightning swept through the minds of the sea of clouds, could it be that the defenders of Paris were lying in ambush in the sewers, waiting for us to be carried away by victory, and to catch us off guard?
As soon as he thought of this, the sea of clouds did not stop at his feet, he directly turned over and jumped off the city wall, summoned a thunderbolt in mid-air, and a streamer flew directly in the direction of Akali!
"Yunhai, what are you going to do!" Alma shouted.
"He must have thought of something, let's hurry up with him!"
With that, Fluttershy rolls over and jumps off the wall, following the sea of clouds.
"Why are these two guys sudden?" Alma didn't know why, but she kicked her feet and followed.
"Akali, how are you doing here?" Yunhai rode onto Xiaoguang and flew directly to Akali's side, at this time she had finished the battle outside the castle and was about to go in to clean up the remnants of the enemy.
"There are still some stubborn enemies in the castle, Caterina has already rushed in, I am about to keep up, you have done it quickly enough, very good!" Akali looked very happy, in the beginning of the siege to now, everything is going according to the plan, now only half an hour later, the huge city of Paris, the amount of armed force that can be seen has been almost wiped out, and its own casualties are not much, only four or five hundred people, it seems that it is possible to ensure that there are 10,000 troops to resist Trist's counterattack.
"Don't rejoice too soon, I have just noticed that the actual number of enemy troops is far from what we intended, and I have observed them and feel that they are most likely ambushed in the sewers of Paris, and they must be waiting for our opportunity to slack off, and then strike back!" warned.
"I've found out that I'm missing someone, and you're robbing me of the credit......" Fluttershy purses her lips unhappily, muttering in displeasure.
"What?!" Akali doesn't hear Fluttershy's broken thoughts, as her attention is completely shocked by the sea of clouds' words. "No wonder I always felt something was wrong...... White!"
"Your Royal Highness, Princess?" White, who was about to enter the castle to support Katarina, immediately ran over.
"Yunhai suspects that there are a large number of enemy troops ambushed in the sewers, you now give me an order, let the soldiers who are not involved in cleaning up the remnants of the enemy army ride their war horses, patrol closely around the major important places in Paris, strictly prevent the enemy's sneak attack, and then let all the commanders come here to gather!"
"Yes, Your Highness Princess, but Chris has encountered difficulties in the attack on Notre Dame Cathedral, and the priests and nuns inside are resisting stubbornly, and the casualties of the assault will be very large, which will not be conducive to our next battle, do you want to support it?" White reported.
"In this way, you don't have to look for someone, stay here and be responsible for contacting Katarina, Alma, you go to find Eve, the three of us go to support Chris, and you will come over as soon as possible after the mission is completed!"
With that, Akali jumps aboard the giant silver dragon and flies in the direction of Notre Dame Cathedral, followed by Clouds and Fluttershy.
Notre-Dame de Paris.
The Notre Dame Cathedral in the twilight was stained with a color from sin by the smoke and blood, which was so dazzling, and Chris was watching helplessly inside at the gate, resisting all kinds of Holy Spirit spells that flew out from time to time, and Chris was also afraid to attack because of the rat trap, after all, the combat effectiveness of these priests and nuns was much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, and it would definitely be a loss to break through.
The giant red dragon lay quietly on its side in the street, occasionally wagging its tail twice from a running warhorse.
"Chris, what's going on here?" Akali ordered Silver Dragon to guard the back door of Notre Dame Cathedral, and Yunhai ordered Xiaoguang to patrol the sky, completely turning this place into a desperate city.
"There is no room for optimism, the resistance of these clergy is very strong, we have no idea where to start, we don't know how many people will be lost by storming the road, if we let the red dragon go up, then Notre Dame Cathedral will be razed to the ground. Chris stared hatefully at the sacred hall in front of him.
"Is that so......" Akali muttered, "I'll come when I go, wait for me." ”
After that, without waiting for others to stop her, she raised the Seagod Shield and the Mo Evil Divine Sword and walked towards the depths of the Notre Dame.
"Your Highness Princess, it's dangerous!" Chris exclaimed, stunned.
There was no need to be so alarmed, she knew what she was doing. Yunhai calmed down and grabbed Chris. "She must be trying to persuade the people inside, we just need to hold this place and not affect her plans. ”
Yunhai knows very well how much pressure Paris will face in the subsequent counterattack of Trist, and enlisting the help of the clergy in Notre Dame Cathedral is the best means to reduce casualties and preserve combat effectiveness to the greatest extent, after all, this time Akali only brought Eve a doctor, how many people can he save?
"The devil, the devil who destroys our homeland!"
"War maniac, executioner, you are not welcome at the holy Notre Dame Cathedral!"
"God's mortal enemies will perish, including you and your invaders!"
Along the way, countless priests and nuns cursed Akali while calling her all kinds of Holy Spirit spells, but Akali just resisted these spells, without a trace of counterattack, if someone stood in the way, she flew directly over, just like that, without attacking anyone, she killed all the way to the chapel of Notre Dame Cathedral, dozens of meters high golden cross flashed dim light, and below it, there were dozens of monks who were praying, led by a gray-haired old man, after he heard the voice behind him, he slowly stood up, staring at Akali expressionlessly, but the cross in his hand, but trembling slightly.
"Lord Severus?" Akali asked tentatively.
"Your Highness, it has been three years since you last visited here, but now that you have a weapon in your hand, we can't welcome you anyway. Severus's voice was inaudible to joy or anger.
Akali naturally knows the old man in front of him very well, Archbishop Severus of Notre Dame de Paris, became a clergyman at a young age, after a legendary life, to now, finally become one of the greatest priests on the European continent, he also maintains friendship with the Kingdom of Lucas, and has a very good relationship with Akali, Akali clearly remembers that he has not yet become a warrior during the time, and he has come here several times to play, at that time, Archbishop Severus prepared a lot of snacks and sweets for her, and told her various stories in the Bible, so to speak, is also one of the leaders of her firm faith, and now the two, but had to face each other with swords here.
"So, is that okay?"
As she spoke, Akali suddenly threw down the Seagod Shield and the Mo Evil Divine Sword in her hand, and with a "snap", it shook the surrounding clergy.
"You ......" Severus understood that although Akali broke into here alone, it was impossible without the help of weapons and shields, and now that she was disarmed, no matter how strong she was, she could not resist the indiscriminate bombardment of dozens of people alone, and she, in such a situation, disarmed herself, did she really trust herself to such a point?
"Lord Severus, I have never forgotten the taste of the cookies you baked for me when I was a child. Akali began to use her excellent eloquence again, and this time, she chose to start with emotion. "At that time, the time was carefree, everything was so beautiful, but now it is different, my father's throne was usurped by Trist, and the whole of Europe finally ushered in peace, but it fell into darkness again, I regret it, why didn't I come back to my hometown earlier, come back here, if this is the case, I don't know how many people who shouldn't die will be able to save their lives, I don't know how many families should be complete and happy, and won't fall apart......"
Akali said emotionally, and in the whole chapel, all the clergy looked at each other, they didn't believe that a war maniac, an executioner, could say such a thing, even the people who had stopped Akali in the passage, were behind the oak door and listened to her words with bated breath, and before they knew it, the whole corridor was already full of people.
"Perhaps, you are just blinded, perhaps, you just want to save this fallen world by your own means, but I believe that if you do not destroy Trist, the embodiment of brutality, there will be no light in Europe!"
Facing the huge cross, Akali said slowly, "You know, Trist not only executed cruel rule throughout Europe, suppressing all those who threatened his throne, but for his ambitions, he also lifted the ban on life magic, and countless notorious necromancers and lichs flocked to Rome, and the recent earthquake in Athens was one of their masterpieces. ”
