Chapter 50: Conflict

The healing room of the cathedral was very quiet, Pope Austin Stephen was lying on the bed, the ground was a complex self-healing circle shining with a faint light, and several priests were sitting in the circle with their eyes slightly closed to maintain the formation. An old man outside the circle sat on a chair and watched the Pope in a daze, because the old eyelids were loose as if they hadn't opened them, but because of the light of the circle, he could see the reflection in the gaps.

Christina slowly walked behind the old man and bowed slightly to the Pope, who was lying unconscious on the bed, and then stood there without speaking, as if she had forgotten the purpose of her coming.

"Let's go out and talk, let Austin be quiet, he's too tired" The old man seemed to have guessed, and stood up slowly, Christina hurriedly helped each other out of the healing room, and the dazzling sunlight outside made the old man raise his hand to block it, and he still looked like he hadn't woken up, "What's going on?" there seemed to be deep helplessness in the old man's tone.

"Patriarch, we have received information that the City Lord of Broken Wings may join forces with the Abyss Sect to attack us," Christina whispered behind the old man.

"It's really impressive, does the current Cathedral of Light still need people to join forces to deal with it" The old man smiled when he heard Christina's words, as if he didn't take it seriously at all, "Okay, I know, little Christina, you go and get busy with you, the cathedral can't fall yet"

Looking at the trembling old man walking forward, Christina sighed softly, if she didn't really have no choice, how could she bear to let such an old man lift the sky.

"Lord City Lord, Zhou Liang is missing," said a servant in the dimly lit room as he walked up behind the middle-aged man sitting in a chair and bowed.

"It's just missing, isn't it dead?" the middle-aged man was clearly dissatisfied with the answer.

"Yes, my lord, the news has been confirmed from the cathedral, and it is said that the person who followed Zhou Liang at the beginning is fine, only he is missing"

"A vanguard army and a stronghold of the Abyss Sect didn't kill him, they just disappeared," said the middle-aged man here, and shook his head, "Forget it, it's already this time, it doesn't matter if he lives or not, is everything that should be prepared?"

"It's all ready, and the Broken Wings Legion is already hiding outside the city, but don't you really need to inform the Abyss Sect about it?" the servant asked cautiously.

"No need, they are no longer needed, just a few old, weak, sick and disabled, they are here but troublesome, since they are ready, let's start tomorrow" The middle-aged man slowly walked to the window and looked out the window at the city that had just calmed down, tomorrow there may be chaos here again, but for him, as long as he can complete the purpose, everything is not important.

The next day, while Christina was still dealing with daily things, thinking about whether there was a good way to get through this crisis, suddenly a panicked knock on the door rang out, and without waiting for her to say yes, a knight walked in, "My lord, there are a lot of people from the Broken Wings Legion outside the city, saying that they want to enter the city."

Since the Broken Wings Legion went to the border, the city was garrisoned by the Bright Cathedral, and it was supposed to return the defense to the Broken Wings Legion, and it could also alleviate the current shortage of manpower in the Knights, but after getting yesterday's information, the city defense could never be handed over, you must know that the Broken Wings City has a city array, and if the Abyss Sect did not directly cause chaos from the city but forcibly attacked it outside, they would not be able to enter several times more manpower.

If the defense is returned to the Broken Wings at this time, they suddenly rebel, and the Cathedral of Light will really be finished, "Don't let them in now, I'll go over" Christina hurriedly ran out without waiting for Christina to finish speaking.

Rushing towards the city wall, the knights of light along the way were in a hurry to salute Christina, the noise outside the city was already very loud, the city gate had long been closed, the civilians did not dare to approach the city of broken wings at all, and even the streets of the city could not see anyone now, only a flash of eyes could be seen in the closed windows of the house on the side of the road, it was obvious that the confrontation between the Broken Wings Legion and the Cathedral of Light had made the civilians who had been very sensitive recently feel something, and Christina, who had just walked on the street, could even hear the cries of children in some houses。

"Hank, what do you want," Christina shouted as she climbed the wall to the Severed Wings Legion Commander outside the city.

"What do we want to do? Christina, don't you blush when you ask this, why can't the Broken Wings Legion enter their own city now" Hank saw Christina on the city wall and sneered, there is no reason for the Light Cathedral to stop them from standing, as long as they don't do it first, the Knights of Light must let them go, you must know that many people in the Broken Wings Legion are from the City of Broken Wings, and there is no reason why the Light Cathedral can't let people go home.

"It's a mess of the remnants of the Abyss Sect that are still being captured in the city, so in order to prevent them from escaping, the Broken Wings Legion should wait," Christina said stubbornly.

"Captain Christina, don't you think you're joking, such a lame reason is said, so that our people can't even go home, isn't this too much, what do you want to do in the Cathedral of Light" Suddenly a voice sounded behind Christina, Christina suddenly looked back, only to see the city lord of Broken Wings slowly walking over with an indescribable smile on her face.

"Lord Anthony, what the hell do you want to do," Christina said through gritted teeth.

"Does it matter what I want to do, it seems that what you want to do in the Cathedral of Light, doesn't it seem too much to keep the troops and children of our own city out of the city," Anthony City Lord looked at Christina with a smile on his face.

With the words of the city lord, the shouts of the Broken Wings Legion outside became louder, and even the eyes of the civilians in the city who looked at the Bright Knight changed a little, many of the Broken Wings Legion outside the city were their relatives, and now the people of the Bright Knights, what does it mean not to let their relatives enter the city.

"Christina's affairs are out of the way, let the Brokenwings come in," Mike walked in from a distance with two priests, shouting in Christina's direction as he walked.

"But Bishop Mack......" Christina was about to say something when Mike suddenly raised his hand and interrupted her.

"That's what the Patriarch meant, when I came out, he told me that we can lose, we can die, but faith can't, and if the people of Broken Wings are disappointed in their faith in the light, then we are sinners" Mike said this not at Christina but at Lord Anthony.

Lord Anthony looked deeply at Mike, and the smile on his face disappeared a little.
