Early the next morning, Kells met with the returning officers of the Holy Cult, and to his surprise, the other party was dressed like a soldier in the slightest.

Standing in front of Kells was a middle-aged man with a stubbled beard, his face covered in scars, and he didn't look like a good person at all. Kells didn't understand how such a criminal-looking man had managed to infiltrate the Holy Army, and when the Holy Army had become such a mixed army.

However, the other party didn't care about Kells's contemptuous look at him at all, and he nodded at Kells and said, "Yo, it turned out to be Lord Kells, I really didn't expect you to come here." ”

Kells didn't expect the other party to know him, and his heart suddenly felt a little more comfortable, and the coldness on his face eased slightly. Kells nodded and said, "I led the troops to rest here temporarily, may I ask you are the ...... of the Holy Sect Army"

"Ah, I'm just a secret agent, you probably haven't heard of me, so call me Sesti. The other party said very cheerfully.

"It turned out to be an intelligence spy of the Holy Cult Army. Kells thought to himself, "It seems that the agents of the Holy Cult Army have infiltrated many places, and even such a remote town has become their stronghold. ”

Seth asked, "I heard Colt say that the adults are looking for me, and I don't know what it is?"

Kells froze, and then said, "I heard that the Holy Cult Army has set up a teleportation well here, and wants to transfer all the residents here to the south of Big 6, is it true?"

Sesti said unabashedly, "Yes, we are indeed moving all the locals to the south. ”

Seeing that the other party had no scruples, Kells immediately became angry, he forcibly did not let himself explode, and asked word by word: "May I ask Lord Sesti, did you get Correa's permission to do this, and if you transferred people without permission, would it be too much to do so?"

Seeing that Kells's facial features were a little distorted, Sesti deliberately pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and said, "Oh, so the adults are talking about this. Correa will allow us people to know, but I know one thing, the Dark Devils of the North are wreaking havoc at the moment, and if these people are not transferred, they will be taken captive sooner or later. At that time, not only will the population be greatly reduced, but the number of the Dark Devils will also increase, so I guess my lord knows better than I do about the power of the Dark Devils, right?"

Kells couldn't help but be even more annoyed when he saw him poking his sore spots, but the other party's words couldn't refute it, if even Correa was not the opponent of the Dark Devils, and the others might not be able to, the only way at this time was to avoid fighting with the Dark Devils as much as possible. From this point of view, the Holy Army's approach may be the wisest, but it does make Correa very uncomfortable.

However, Kells would not admit to his face that the other party was reasonable, and he said strongly: "Your actions have seriously damaged our Correa, I hope you will stop this operation immediately and wait for our King to officially give orders before dealing with it!"

"Hehe, that's not going to work. I'm not your subordinate, so there's no reason to listen to your orders, and besides, you're not the lord here, only the local lord has such power. Sesti sneered.

"You ......" The furious Kells stretched out his hand to draw the sword at his waist, when suddenly someone hurried to the two of them and said, "Lord Sesti!

"What! chased after him so quickly!" Kells was taken aback, he thought he had escaped the pursuit of the Dark Devils, but he didn't expect to chase after him again in a day's time.

At this time, Kells really had a feeling of exhaustion, with the current state of the troops, it was obviously impossible to escape out of the city, but it seemed difficult to hold on to staying in this small city, not to mention that there must be a premise for defending the city, that is, there must be reinforcements, otherwise it will be difficult to hold on.

Sesti was calm, and he said to the messenger, "Keep an eye on the Dark Devils, and if they come to Marel, let me know at once!"

Sesti turned to Kells and said, "Lord Kells, now that the enemy is approaching, what are your plans?"

Beads of sweat were already on Kells' forehead, he forced himself to calm down, thought for a while and said, "The best way at the moment is to refuse the city and hold on, and at the same time send people to ask for help, I don't know how much food is in the city?"

Sesti shook his head and said, "You can't hold it, this city is not strong, and the food in the city can't last long, the best way is to move immediately." ”

Kells looked embarrassed and said, "Our troops are very tired, and I am afraid that if we leave now, we will ......"

"I didn't mean that, I hope your troops will move with us. Of course, we still have to find a way to defend Marel before we do that. Sesti said.

Kells didn't expect that the other party would let his army move with them, which was completely unexpected, and he hurriedly weighed the advantages and disadvantages. Seeing Kells' hesitation, Sesti said: "If the adults are unwilling, then I will not force it, the adults can act according to their own wishes, but there is not much food in the city, and the adults can only find their own way to provide military rations." ”

After saying that, Sesti was about to turn around and leave, but Kells was anxious and blurted out, "Wait!

Sesti couldn't help but be a little surprised that Kells agreed so happily, he thought that this Lord Kells would hesitate, but he didn't expect him to agree so quickly. In fact, don't say that Sesti didn't expect it, even Kells was a little surprised by his decision, he didn't think much about it at the time, but instinctively felt that if he rejected the other party, he might be very disadvantageous to himself and the army.

"Well, since the adults have agreed, then I have a few things that I hope the adults will understand. Sesti said very seriously.

"Please. Kells said.

"First, please ask your army's army to help us defend the city, and second, we must let the civilians move first, and the army must be the last to go, this is our principle, I hope your lordship can explain this to your subordinates. Sesti said.

Kells nodded without hesitation, "I see, I will order the troops to comply with these." ”

"Well, I'll talk about how to defend the city...... Sesti said.

News of the Dark Devil's impending attack soon spread through the city, and panicked people rushed to the place where the teleportation well was located, the mansion where the city lord had lived. The soldiers of the Holy Cult Army were in charge of guarding the place, and when they saw the people rushing in like a tide, they were shocked and hurriedly closed the gate.

Those who were desperate to flee for their lives banged on the gate with their hands, and the wails of crying and grabbing the ground resounded throughout the town. There were only two or three hundred soldiers left here by the Holy Sect Army, and they had to guard several city gates separately, so there were only a few dozen people guarding the city lord's mansion. They were also panicked when they saw this, and they saw that the people were about to push the gate, and some soldiers were ready to flee over the wall.

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves, and a cavalry team appeared in the street, rushing towards the city lord's mansion like a torrent. The surrounding people had never seen such a battle, and they were so frightened that they fled to both sides of the street. When the cavalry came to the gate, a man who looked like an officer shouted: "Listen, everyone! Everyone has the opportunity to move, but they must obey the order, and if anyone dares to mess around, he will be punished as a rebellion and killed on the spot!"

Under the intimidation of the army, the people did not dare to make any more noise, and hurriedly lined up outside the city lord's mansion, waiting to be teleported.

With Correa's help, the city quickly settled, and the teleportation shafts began to send the people away non-stop, while Sesti and Kells organized their soldiers to carry all sorts of fire-burning objects up the walls in preparation for the incoming Dark Devils.

In the evening, spies from outside the city rushed back to report that the Dark Devils were heading towards the small city of Marel, and it was estimated that they would arrive in two or three hours. After listening to the report, Sesti said to Kells: "We must hurry, the only thing that can resist the Dark Devils entering the city is the flames, we must get more firewood and grass, otherwise it will not burn for a long time." ”

Kells thought for a moment and said, "It seems that I have to pick up the house." ”
