Chapter 45: The Raid

"Shine forever, my lord......... Basking in your radiance, we long for a moment of peace and guidance that you will lead our souls to the Promised Land. ”

Raising his head and looking at the emblem that radiated a warm light in front of him, Alex prayed in a low voice. He clenched the scepter in his hands with both hands, closed his eyes, and felt the will and brilliance of the gods mixed with the warmth. After a few moments, the light faded, and it was only then that Alex slowly stood up, opened his eyes, and made a gesture of thanks before putting down his scepter and sitting down in the chair next to him.

As a priest, Alex has been serving the Holy Lord for forty years, and he is one of the most prestigious bishops in the Northlands, and it is even rumored that after a while, when the previous archbishop is called by the Lord, he can take this place and become the new archbishop. Alex was not very happy about this, and he dedicated all his qiē to the Northland. Rather than sitting in a glorious church preaching the Scriptures, he would rather walk in the wilderness and bring the Gospel of the Lord to those who are living in pain, to relieve their suffering and to appease their anger.

Moreover, Alex was also quite worried by the noise of the outside world, and since rumors of his possible succession to the position of archbishop, he had been approached under various pretexts. Alex felt extremely irritable with these people, but he had to smile -- to be honest, for Alex, he would rather go to the battlefield and fight the devil with this old bone than with those big-bellied businessmen and politicians who always have devilish ideas.

So when Alex received the Templar call-up order, he immediately nodded his head and agreed, and ended up in this wild land, the dark land.

Alex didn't know why he and the others were here, he had only heard from the top that it seemed that the Holy Lord had given them guidance to come here to eliminate a potential threat that would probably cause serious consequences to the entire Crane 6. And that threat is in the Shadows, so weed it out before it grows.

As for what the threat was, Alex didn't know, and he suspected that even the upper echelons didn't know. The prophecies of the Lord are always so vague that they need to rely on their wisdom to find hidden clues. This is also a test for believers, wisdom and courage, fairness and justice, strength and faith, all are indispensable.

Originally, as Alex, he was supposed to be in charge of fighting on the front line, but because he was too old. In the end, the Order put him in charge of the rear station. This place is also quite important for the Templar Order, after all, from this point on, it is the bridgehead of the Order against the Dark Regions, and it must have a person of high moral standing and strength to be able to defend this place. As for his duties, Alex is also conscientious and has never taken it lightly. Although he is almost sixty years old, he still personally checks the situation around the supply station every day in case something happens.

But today things are a little different, and since waking up, Alex has been feeling restless, as if something bad is about to happen. In order to avoid accidents, he has doubled the security around the perimeter. Then he prayed in front of the emblem, hoping that the Lord would give him some revelation.

But unfortunately, I don't know if it's because the distance between the dark area and the surface is so far that the holy words that could have been heard clearly have become blurred at this moment, but the uneasiness in the depths of my heart has become more and more solemn, and I almost can't breathe. He wanted to call back the main force outside, but he was a little worried about whether he was making a big fuss. After all, there are more than 50 people stationed in this stronghold, and even if there is any attack, it will be able to resist it for a while.........

"Ahh!!h

But before Alex could think anything more, a sharp scream was heard outside. Hearing this scream, Alex had no heart to let go, and suddenly pinched.

There is an enemy attack!!

The sword flashed.

Verna weaved through the shadows, her body only slightly sideways, dodging the three bolts fired by the warrior in front of her. The next moment, before Verna could make any movements, a thick fog that was so dark that even light could not penetrate suddenly enveloped the warrior's perimeter, plunging him into pitch black. Before the unlucky fellow could make any more moves, Verna had already burrowed into his side like a poisonous snake, and the thin sword in her hand quickly pierced into the opponent's eye socket, then jerked it and then quickly pulled back, and the next moment, the warrior had fallen to the ground, and there was no more sound.

"Kill them all, and leave not a single one."

Jenn walked slowly, dressed exactly the same as he had been when the gray dwarves had slaying the goblins, dressed like a nobleman inside, wrapped in a cape, and holding a pitch-black cane in his white-gloved right hand. For the aggressive enemy in front of him, Jenn didn't seem to pay attention to it at all, and it was as leisurely as taking a walk after dinner.

Naturally, his attire also attracted the attention of the defenders in the garrison, and it was not long before four or five archers were seen raising their crossbows and aiming at Jenn. Then I heard a few soft "whoosh" sounds, and the silver arrow flashed brightly, shooting towards Jenn.

"Boom Boom ............!!"

But before those arrows could reach Jenn's body, with the roar of thunder, the dazzling thunder unfolded around Jenn, and countless thunderbolts crackled and scattered in the void, forming a dense net, only to see those silver-white crossbow arrows wrapped in thunder, and completely melted in a moment, and there was no longer any threat at all.

“a1inetbsp; Elise's movements were also very fast, perhaps because she had vented all the anger of not being able to eat and sleep well these days on this group of humans, just as Enoa had just built the power grid, she also immediately chanted a spell, and her slender ten fingers danced quickly in the air, and the power of magic gathered in the girl's fingertips, and the next moment it condensed into several meteors that pierced the sky and shot at the warriors holding bows and crossbows in the distance. With a few "bangs", the bursting meteor spread out like fireworks, and in the blink of an eye, the scattered flames completely enveloped the enemy.

"Uh-huh!!"

The demon flame, which is completely composed of negative energy, is naturally not something that everyone can withstand, and several soldiers who were haunted by the demon flame suddenly screamed in pain and rolled on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies, but unfortunately the demon flames are not ordinary flames after all, these soldiers rolled a few times, not only did they not extinguish the flames, on the contrary, the demon flames became more and more vigorous, and even the steel armor on their bodies melted together, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

"Guard!!"

And at this moment, suddenly, with an angry shout, I saw a golden light suddenly fall from the sky and fall on the bodies of those soldiers. Where the golden light shone brightly, the originally blazing demonic flames suddenly died down, and in an instant disappeared like small flames extinguished by the rainstorm.

"It's ...............!"

Seeing this scene, Elise was also slightly shocked. As a collection of negative energy, the Demon Flame is a great threat to all living beings, but it is not invincible in the world. In addition to the undead creatures that are also driven by negative energy, only the Holy Light with abundant positive energy can restrain the damage of the Demon Flame. Elise was born in the Dark Regions, where even if there is a priest, he believes in the Demon King, and it is impossible to have any positive energy magic at all. But she was not ignorant of this, after all, with this rare ability, her father had repeatedly warned herself about how strong the surface priest's magic was to restrain the demon flames. It's just that when I saw it at this moment, it still surprised Elise. After all, although Enoa was immune to her own magic flame before, it was only immune after all, but now the magic flame that she was proud of would be restrained so badly, it was still beyond Elise's expectations.

"Hammer of Judgment!!"

But before Elise could react again, she heard another roar, and countless dazzling lights instantly condensed in the air, forming a war hammer the size of a man, roaring towards Elise. Seeing this war hammer, Elise's face changed greatly, she hurriedly raised her hands, and the roaring demonic flames reappeared, quickly forming one barrier after another in front of the girl, trying to protect the safety of her master.

But to Elise's surprise, the usually impregnable protective barrier seemed to have turned into paper paste at the moment. I saw that the golden war hammer was roaring all the way, but the guard he had laid down was broken head-on, and he couldn't even block it. In the blink of an eye, the golden warhammer had already arrived in front of Elise, and with a single blow, it was enough to smash Elise into meat sauce.

If you change to other mages, I'm afraid you will only have to close your eyes and wait for death. However, Elise is a half-vampire, and her physique is naturally different from that of ordinary people. Seeing that things were not good, she also shook her figure, and quickly retreated back with a series of afterimages. But the golden hammer did not give up, and followed closely. Elise shifted positions several times, but was unable to dodge Warhammer's attack.

Seeing that Elise was about to be hit by the golden war hammer, at this moment, suddenly a black shadow appeared beside the girl and pulled her into her arms.

"Lord of the city?"

Seeing Jenn standing behind her, Elise cried out in surprise. In the face of Elise's call, Jenn's expression remained unchanged, looking at the golden warhammer that was getting closer and closer, he even stretched out his hand and raised his glasses quite leisurely, only then did he raise his right hand and snap his fingers lightly.

In just an instant, the heavens and the earth changed color.
