Chapter 377: Mission, Ongoing

In the dark clouds, a round of Kyaukjie struggled. However, April 28 has arrived.

There was no whirring, and Glori was a little uncomfortable. He shook Fiona awake, stepped past the drunkard lying on the wooden floor, and left the "small building".

As expected, in the woods north of Honor City, Glori and Fiona met some knights of the Church of Light. Glori, didn't have time to count the number of knights. The knights, all masked and not wearing armor. Glori looked at the knight hiding behind the tree.

The sword that hung from the waist was collected by the knights from somewhere, and it was poorly workmanlike, and it was simply the kind that was discarded. Some of the swords bloomed directly, and the left and right blades were all cracked, like the back of a cracked hand in an extremely cold place. Some swords, on the other hand, are rusty, and if you use force, they can break and are not even as strong as a wooden club.

No one wore a red cape, and no one wore muslin clothes. Linen shirts and hemp pants have become the regular attire of a knight order that defends the laws of the kingdom.

One of the knights pointed to the wide road.

Glori followed the guide and saw the Imperial Guards clearly, and also saw the people of the Runeterrine Church walking together. According to the plan, Fiona was the first person to come out of the woods.

So, Glori could only hold his heart and wait for Fiona's good news.

Fiona, who was braver than Glori. Carrying the folds of her skirt, she jumped out of the woods, and Fiona threw herself on the road. While crying and begging for help, Fiona acted decently.

"Wait, don't go! you need to help me!"

"How could a girl be in such a place? Don't you know that the forest you just walked out of was under a spell? The lord of the City of Honor has carefully arranged the surrounding places. Help you undo the curse, and you'll go home quickly, right?"

The one who speaks, not the one who leads. Because, the leading team took on the responsibility of clearing the road and took the lead. The person who spoke was nothing more than a guard in steel armor and holding a steel sword. Accompanying those who spoke were wagons pulling goods, and the believers of the Church of Rune.

Those believers, as if they had encountered something unclean, chanted mantras over and over again. Anyway, Glori didn't hear what the believers were reading, only to see the believers walking around Fiona in a circle.

There were twenty believers and twenty-five guards, and this was without counting the vanguard and followers. Just now, the leading team in the past, Glori, also counted the number of people - counting the Imperial Guards and two believers, there were roughly a hundred people.

As for the follow-up team, Glori has not yet seen a trace. The team marched from east to west, and the lead team was able to pull the cargo guard far away because of Fiona's presence. At the very least, it is impossible to catch up with the leader in a quarter of an hour.

However, Glori knew that the leading team would not be marching all the time and would definitely wait for the middle team to follow. So, what should the follow-up team do?

Following a slight footstep, Glori saw a knight coming from the shadows. The knight spoke, very politely.

"Hey, it's time for you guys to do it. The team behind has fallen into the 'ditch'. ”

Listening to the voice, Glori knew that the knights who passed behind him had a certain place in the Order. At the very least, he shouldn't be a mere messenger. The knight who delivered the message had a rough voice and a sharp eye, as if those who received the message should listen to him and not be able to refute it.

That's why Glori realized that the first battle of the Brave Wind Warband was just under the command of some people. Contrary to what was expected, it was not at all the responsibility of the Brave Wind Warband, or the Brave Wind Warband, Agatha and Leo as Glorry thought.

Agatha never appeared, and Leo was not seen. Glori didn't know what Agatha and Leo were doing, so he could only stare at the believers circling Fiona.

Beside Glori, someone made a gesture telling Glori to keep his posture down and not move for a while. However, Glori could see clearly that if she didn't go out now, Fiona would be in danger.

Those believers were not reciting some words to break the spell, but some kind of curse to control Fiona. The curse in the forest is like the curse of the coral port. As soon as he entered the woods, Glori felt it—oppressive, chest-tight. And the knights, unharmed.

Glori wasn't sure how the knights had overcome the curse of the woods. However, Glori had a bad premonition. Anyway, do you want to help Fiona first?

Feeling a little dizzy, Glori rushed out.

In the first sword, Glori stuns the guard who was talking to Fiona with the hilt of his sword. With the second sword, Glori swept out a wave of swords and dispersed the cultists surrounding Fiona. With the third sword, Glori confused the guards who had gathered around him - the blue flames were scorching, and no one wanted to be deflated.

Then Glori pulled Fiona up. Consistent with what has been observed, Fiona is in a groggy state. The curse in the forest has been deepened by the devotees with spells.

Before Glori could react, some people jumped out of the carriage. Those men simply lifted the sackcloth shed of the carriage. On the body, there was nothing but people who stood tall and showed a sinister gaze.

Yes, that's right!

Glori read that right, it wasn't the Empire's orderly, but the same humans as Glori—no green or red eyes among them!

Turning around, Glori accepted the siege from behind with a smile.

Those knights hiding in the woods turned out to be in a group with the escort party!

Glori, he didn't expect that a plan to attack a convoy turned out to be a trap. Reed bamboo forest

"So, where did the salt team go?"

Glori was convinced that the news from Master Javier and Agatha was true. Moreover, Lord Javier and Agatha are both loyal to the kingdom of Alex! even if they have an opinion of Glori, they will not use this method to bring Glori down.

"Where did you get all that salt? Agatha and Leo, where did you get them? Shouldn't they show up at this time?"

Asking questions one after another, Glori received no answer. Things have long been clear. In the Church of Light, there are traitors. And, now it's only fighting.

Grabbing Fiona's arm, Glori was relieved. If anyone wants to get close to a drowsy Fiona, they have to ask Glori about the sword in his hand.

Speaking of which, Glori hadn't given the sword in his hand a proper name. Only now, Glorry began to think. What kind of name would be suitable for a sword used to pursue hope?

The name has not yet been decided.

Glori knew he didn't need to give the person in front of him a way out. Because, the person in front of him did not intend to give Glori a reason to leave alive. Raising his hand and swinging his sword, Glori first caused the two believers who attacked Fiona to fall due to stabbing wounds in the legs.

"Get out of the way!"

A warning was Glorry's kindness.

Seeing that no one was out of the way, Glori followed with a second shout.

"You'd better get out of the way!"

No one got out of the way, as if no one dared to flee except for fear of Glori's sword. In particular, those traitors to the Church of Light had become Glori's worst enemies at the behest of the messenger he had just spoken.

The knight of the Church of Light, Glori has been taught in the Soaring Bluff of Noah's Jungle. Now, looking at the sword bush that shone with white light, Glori didn't dare to frown. Glori knew that if he frowned, it was a sign that he was about to meet the group fight. And now, with just one step forward, Glori can still make some people timid.

Glori pulled Fiona and took a step forward. In the first step, Glori saw three people retreat. In the second step, Glori saw some people retreating. In the third step, Glori saw that there were people retreating, but the number decreased, and there were even people moving forward.

Glori knew that if he didn't make a move, he would have to let his "momentum" turn into a stone pressing on his heart. With his hand, Glori drew a storm with his sword.

In the whistling, the blades face each other.

Some of the Knights of the Church of Light ran to Glori's right, while others ran to Glori's left. And those Imperial guards are coming from behind Glori.

Swing a blue flame breeze to the left, then use the light of the stars to knock back the guards behind you...... Turning to the right again, Glori was able to wound his right shoulder and scare the knight on his right back at the surging diagonal tornado.

The thing in front of me is not a big deal, isn't it an injury to the right shoulder? At least Fiona, who was protected by Glori on the left, was safe and sound. Dropping his sword, Glori made the whistling sound more and more arrogant.

The sand is flying and the trees are shaking. And the wind, coming from all directions, tore through the surroundings with Glori as the center. And just like that, Glori swung his sword.

Accompanied by the colorful light, the blue flame is like a wave, pushing away a wave of people, and then embracing the next wave of people. In a flurry of "thuds" and "whooshes", Glori ignited a path of blue flames.

Borrowing the light of the stars to protect himself and Fiona, Glori brings out the majesty of the Divine Knight. It wasn't until Glori swung his jet-black sword that the chasing men and orderly soldiers stopped.

No one wants to touch the pitch black flames. Unless, that person has enough magic to contend with it. But more often than not, the chasers saw Glori's determination. The Black Flame, on the other hand, is a kind of declaration: life or death!

It's a pity that Glori didn't kill the killer because of his kindness.

Perhaps, it is indeed time to leave a face for those who are greedy. Perhaps, those who embrace evil, all deserve to die!

Glori, of course, knows that life and death are common in war. But what can be exchanged for killing? some people's crying, some people's smiles, or rather, some people's despair, or some people's hope? In Ebel's world, maybe only killing can be exchanged for a future?

Perhaps, blood and fire are the only way to the future, just like when Alex's kingdom was established, just like when people fought for royal power for their own interests, just like people took away another person's job for a mouthful of food.

Only killing?

Only killing?

Never had Glori been naïve enough to think that the evil people who had been given a chance to live by him would give him anything good in return, nor was he naïve enough to think that those evil people would have a conscience of repentance after escaping a catastrophe.

Glori put away the sword in his hand, simply because he didn't want to see one man after another fall in the fight.

In the long-term inner entanglement, should we give some people hope or despair? This kind of thing is no longer something that can be solved by thinking about it, and this kind of thing is already challenging Glori's faith.
