Chapter 307: Behind the Scenes
Thousands of civilians, armed with homemade knives, guns and clubs, frantically shouted slogans and stormed a church. The wooden doors of the church could not stop the frantic crowd, and the broken windows became a shortcut for civilians to rush into the church.
Although the priest in the church is not a full-time fighter, he also fights back with a variety of lethal magic techniques.
As time went on, casualties on both sides increased, and tensions between civilians and priests intensified, making the fighting even more intense.
The civilians in the rear suddenly became violently chaotic, and the loud cries made the civilians who rushed to the front a little stunned.
"What's going on behind the scenes?" a slightly chubby man with slightly narrowed eyes yelled in a fierce tone, "Whoever dares to fight against the water, he will do it!"
The people behind fell one after another in the cry, and the man saw the cause of the chaos. A squad of well-armed holy warriors is waging a frenzied massacre of civilians! Civilians armed with rudimentary weapons are unlikely to confront the warriors who have been quietly cultivated by the Church, and are cut to the ground like wheat cut by the holy warriors.
"them! As long as this church is captured, all the wealth in it will be ours! We can live a prosperous life!" Although there was a trace of fear in the man's eyes, the expression on his face became even more frenzied, and he tried his best to incite the civilians around him, "If you give up resistance, you will die faster, and if you are captured, you will also be burned at the stake!
No one is stupid, and since they have chosen the path of rioting, they are naturally well aware of the dangers involved. Even without the man's incitement, some of them would have rushed to fend off the holy warriors, stalling for a possible victory. Wise beings are lucky, and they don't think they'll be killed easily in a confrontation with a holy warrior. Perhaps after a very short period of time, victory will be theirs.
It's just that the ordinary sword is like a rotten branch in the face of the weapon blessed by the Holy Liliang, and it is immediately cut in two under the slash of the holy warrior. And those civilians who use rudimentary weapons. Naturally, it was also divided into two halves under the weapon of the holy warrior.
True dreadnought. There are only chances of victory and great benefits. Or there is no hope at all, and there is still a time to protect the most precious things in your heart.
In the face of the slaughter of the holy warriors, the rioting civilians will have no chance. And the church's subsequent investigation also cut off the possibility of them giving up resistance. Under the butcher's knife of the holy warrior. The desperation of civilians can only be transformed into fearless courage, allowing them to gain the life that may exist. It's just that the first reaction of the civilians is not to unite with others to defend against the holy warriors, but to choose a direction that they think is the safest to burrow into some small alleys and escape.
The man who had rushed to the front and frantically incited the riots against the holy warriors also began to evacuate with the chaotic flow of people.
The pressure on the priests in the retreating churches suddenly decreased. The exhaustion that they had tried so hard to suppress began to hit their consciousness. The number of priests is too small compared to the civilians who rioted, and they can only block the onslaught of civilians with a high frequency of counterattacks. Casting magic is also very laborious, and the long battle also makes the priest's mental power on the verge of exhaustion.
The rioting civilians dispersed, and the holy warriors were left with only half of the Liliang to defend the church, while the rest continued the pursuit. If they don't kill or capture the rioting civilians immediately, they will soon hide among ordinary creatures, making it difficult to find out. You must know that although civilians are not very good at fighting, they are not much worse than professional armies in terms of escape and concealment.
"Weishenme doesn't have a bishop-level figure? Could it be that Jihua has an accident?"
In the distance, on a tall tower, a shrewd old man with a mustache shaved his beard with his thumb and looked in the direction of the church. A slight analysis of the situation. He commanded behind him in a deep voice, "Send someone to kill those holy warriors at once, and gather those despicable civilians together." Storm the church again!"
As soon as the old man gave the order, a group of disheveled warriors charged the holy warrior. These warriors were not as strong as the Holy Warriors, and their weapons were not sophisticated, but they outnumbered the Holy Warriors by a large number. And they don't pay attention to anything in battle, they just cut off their heads, and they don't even care about their own injuries.
Under the method of exchanging injuries for injuries, the holy warriors who were inferior in numbers obviously suffered a loss, and were gradually suppressed by this group of warriors. In addition, the holy warriors had already killed a large number of civilians, and they had consumed part of their physical strength before the battle, and their combat power was even lower.
Watching one holy warrior after another fall, the scattered civilians seemed to see the endless riches again, and they all stopped fleeing.
The chubby man who had disappeared also seemed to be in full condition, and once again stood in the forefront of the rioting civilians. He glanced at the holy warriors and the mysterious team who were still fighting, and raised his voice and shouted: "The holy warriors were dragged by them, and we went to rob the church!"
After shouting, the crowd didn't change much, and he himself didn't seem to feel tempted enough, so he shouted again: "There is a god statue forged from energy ore, and it is priceless!"
Because the energy ore can assist in cultivation, it can also forge weapons, and it can also arrange formations. Therefore, in the entire main material plane, the ore containing free energy is considered a scarce commodity, and it is hard currency everywhere! Although these civilians have never owned energy ore, they also clearly know the value of energy ore from the mouth of the troubadour.
A statue of a god is all forged with energy ores, so how much wealth does it have to be exchanged for?
The wealth of the Church was the consensus of all plebeians, and all nobles "donated" large sums of money to the Church every year. Therefore, the chubby man's words aroused the speculation and covetousness of all the common people about the wealth of the church. Of course, all of us will unconsciously exaggerate the wealth of the church in our hearts to give ourselves the opportunity to get more.
Under the great temptation, civilians who already had a history of rioting naturally would no longer estimate the pursuit of the church. And now that the holy warriors are all being dragged down, isn't it their best chance to storm the church and seize their belongings?!
"Bold!"
Just as the rioting civilians gathered around the church again, a shout seemed to burst out of thin air, resounding throughout the city. After the shouting, a violent divine light enveloped the entire church, bathing all the priests and holy warriors in it.
"Inform those fellows of the Ghosn family that the Bishop has arrived!" the old man in the tower looked at the glorious church in surprise, quickly ordered the attendants behind him, and then looked forward to the benefits he could get with some pride. Thinking of the happy place, he slowly shaved his mustache, and his face became more and more ruddy. (To be continued.) )
