Chapter 262: Crossing the Dangerous Land (3)
Glori and Hans were hiding from their sentry posts and approaching the City of Miracles, but the sky was overcast and foggy.
Although Glori knew the fog was unusual, Glori didn't care. He understood that dim vision would make things easier, so he didn't hesitate because of the injury. He endured the pain and Hans came to the south gate of the City of Miracles. However, the gates remained closed.
"We're going to have to flip in. The gates were closed, and it must have been Silver's men. ”
Despite what Hans said, he looked up and regretted it. He looked at the tall brick wall, and gradually put grimness on his face. "O god of light, this is a difficult road that almost makes me forget about the wall. He said tangledly.
Then, Hans frowned and looked around.
"Are you looking for rope? But we don't have time for that, and no one wants us to throw a rope with a hook on it up the wall. A city that has just been attacked must be heavily guarded. And those who guarded it, it was still Silver's people. ”
After Glori finished speaking, he gasped. He found that the walls were riddled with pits, as well as half-draped ladders from the walls. So, with the help of the pits, he climbed the city walls, trying to grab the ladder but frowned. After that, he grabbed an empty spot and was caught by Hans.
Hearing Glori's muffled sound, Hans groped under the wall of rocks, arrows, and the dead. He tossed around for a moment with his hands covered in black dust and blood. Luckily, Hans found a rope with several buckles attached to it. He brought the rope to Glori's side and smiled.
"Look, I found it. It's not just that I can't jump over the walls, but neither can you—you're so injured that you can't use your magic to climb the walls. We all have to rely on ropes. ”
With that, Hans tugged on the rope and tried his tenacity. He wanted to find another hook or something, but Glori pulled him to the wall.
"Be careful, there are sentry posts. Wait a minute......"
After Glori booed, he pressed his left hand against the wall and pressed his right hand on Hans's shoulder. He took a look at what he was stepping on. And Hans saw it too—a great sword that had been broken in half.
"Throw this thing up there and do this in broad daylight?" Hans was disappointed again, and had to look at Glori. He wanted to enlist Glori's help.
Glori looked up his left shoulder and saw that the patrolling soldier had turned around—the soldier was heading east.
"Alright. I'll have to go up, you go to the woods to the west and wait for me and the Knights of Merit to appear." If the gate opens, you let them drag you onto the horse. Glori said.
Then Glori closed his eyes. He was physically tired, so he wanted to use magic. After that, a ball of blue flame enveloped Glori's body. With the help of his magic power, Glori lifted the great sword, which had lost its upper half. He took a few steps back until he could throw his greatsword at the wall.
After taking a deep breath, Glori sent out his greatsword. Despite the use of his magic, he muffled in pain. He pulled the rope down and found it hanging up, so he took a few quick breaths.
"Don't be caught by them, let yourself hide!"
Glori told Hans and grabbed the rope and climbed up. He knew he couldn't hesitate, because it was daylight. Even though the fog is still there, who knows when it will dissipate?
At this point, the guard was wondering from the banging sound and looked around. When the guard turned and walked over to the greatsword hanging from the wall and looked down, he saw Glori clutching a rope and climbing on a ladder.
The guard was about to shout when Glori dangled the rope around his neck.
"I'm sorry, but you've got to get me up. Otherwise, you'll have to be pulled by me with a rope. Fall down, or let me go up? You've got to pick one. ”
Glori whispered as he sped up his movements, and just like that, he hurried up for a while. And the guard was quite capable of tossing, shaking vigorously.
Still, Glori climbed the wall and tied up the guard who had spotted him—Glori had never tied a rope like this, mainly because the guard was too dishonest.
There's no laugh at tying up a guard...... For this, Glori just shrugged his shoulders. He took advantage of the high place to glance into the city, and saw the lights in the distance.
The lights were in a big circle, and Glori guessed that Silver's men were besieging the Knights of Merit, and that it was still before the statue of the first Divine Knight in the square.
And the screams were clear, and Glori heard everything clearly. He knew that one of the shouts was Walker's.
So, Glori leaped down the slope and dodged the next guard. He wrapped his cloak and walked as close to the ruined walls as he could.
Everything was so familiar, and the memories came flooding back like the sea, that Glori's heart tugged at him. With every step you take, you see something familiar.
By this time, everything was clearly visible, but the fog was still there, but it was so tormenting that every street, even every building, appeared in a thrilling way before Glori's eyes.
With each step, Glori's heartstrings tugged, and he began to feel cold.
Gradually, Glori shivered from the cold. He forcibly restrained himself from being affected by what he saw. Still, it can't stop the rush of memories. Then, these memories led to Glori's grief, which was even eating away at Glori's body, like the stinging and cold of the cold wind.
When his eyes began to darken, Glori gritted his teeth, then focused. Knowing that he needed to stay awake, he reached into the bucket of floating ice, took it out, and wiped his face.
"This is Lord Bard's Meritorious Knights, I can't fail here!"
Glori admonished himself, and drew his sword.
Now, Glori hides inside a dilapidated house facing the statue to the north, and the besieged Knights of Merit are halfway between the house and the spring. He counted the Resurrection soldiers and knights who surrounded the Order of Meritorious.
"One, two, three...... Thirty...... No, wait......"
Glori saw Wooder lead another team of Snow King Knights from the east to the north of the spring in the center of the square. When he saw Wooder glance at the statue on this side, he lowered his head under the ledge, and then heard Wooder speak.
"Look, they're all here!" said Wolfer, as if announcing who was here to make the count.
Wolfer looked up at the statue of the Divine Knight on the water of the spring, and then looked at the Knights of Merit who were surrounded. He found Susan in it.
"Look, our dear Miss Susan is in there. Brothers, are you surprised, she was rescued by Walker from Mochizuki and left in our hands—a girl who loves to help Glori, and I am disgusted. I really want to tie her to the execution table and show the blue stars. ”
Wolfer blew his nose, took out a handkerchief, wiped it, and threw it into the spring.
"This damn weather, this damn fog, I'm cold," Wofver said, turning back to the residents to the north, "we need to have a big bonfire ball, both to ward off the cold and for me to dance with Miss Susan." Think about it? A dance before the execution, you guys who think you live in the city of miracles and think it's amazing!"
Susan wanted to humiliate Wolfer when Wooder said this, but she couldn't. She wasn't good at doing such vulgar things, so she could only grab the phoenix feather bow. Still, Walker could see it.
"Miss, that guy must be annoying you, but I'd like to beat him up even more. It's just that we're surrounded now...... So, I'm too lazy to take it seriously. Walker explained to Susan behind her.
Susan just pouted. She thought that it would be the best thing to do to go up and beat up Wolfer, but it seemed so far, but the idea of getting out of here was much better than making the trouble worse.
When Walker tried to turn his head to look at Wolfer, he spotted the blue starlight of the houses to the south. It was only a little light, but Walker saw it. Who else but Glori's magic?, he thought.
Just as Walker was about to explain to Susan, he was caught by Martin, who was besieging the queue.
Martin knocked out Walker's sword and pointed it at Walker.
"I recognize your necklace, where did you get it?"
Martin gave Walker a push and made him stand in front of the spring. He forcibly ripped off Walker's necklace and took a closer look. The entire necklace is bronze, and the pendant is a badge. The badge is in the shape of a leaf and is also engraved with the word "fire".
"It's a rune church thing, how could you have this?" Martin added.
"What's wrong with this chain?" Walker wondered. He said this deliberately, in fact, looking for a way to retrieve the sword. He turned his head and looked again at the window where Starlight had appeared, and saw that Glori was gone.
Martin, on the other hand, laughed out loud at the sight of the inscription on the back of the pendant. "Gibbons, I can't think of anything else that would match your name, and match your name. The guys from the Rune Church really dare to do anything, and I'm used to it. I think you're a thief. He said.
Just as Walker's face turned pale, Martin pointed his sword at him and put it around Walker's neck. Martin was going to take Walker's sacrificial sword first.
Suddenly, the horses neighed and burst into the square. There was only one reason why the horses were let loose and that was when Glori released them.
At that time, Walker jumped on a brown horse. He tries to save Susan, but is picked off by Martin with a sword.
Then the scene was chaotic.
"Catch them! don't let them slip away!" Wuver ordered. He walked up to the crowd and snatched the torch from an adult man. When he turned, he saw Glori's figure coming from the stables to the northeast into the square, and then disappearing into the fog. Only then did he understand why all this was happening.
Wolfer dodges the galloping horses and asks the soldiers to bring Susan to him. He pulled Susan and said, "Look, who have I found?
"Glori, Carlos, I know you're here, get out of here!" Wuver added.
