Chapter 245: Hidden Mysterious Information

"How did Kassandra fall?"

Nadia couldn't believe that fact anyway, knowing that they had been sent here after receiving a distress letter from Kassandra. Although Casalans is not far from the Eagle Plateau, each church under the Templar Order has its own parish, and if it is not something that they really can't handle, they will not let other dioceses interfere. Kassandra, on the other hand, is the diocese of the Sun God Amunla, and is not the same as the Diocese of the Great Mother on the Eagle Plateau. Therefore, at the beginning of the outbreak of the plague, Casalans did not ask the church in the Eagle Plateau for help, until he found that they could no longer control the situation, so he sent an urgent letter asking for help, and because he did not know the situation inside, and the undead walking in the sun mentioned in the letter were very similar to those in the Golden City (of course, Jenn knew that it was not the same thing at all), so the Templar Order wanted to send someone to check on it first, which is why Jenn and the others came here.

But now, Calvin says that Kassandra has fallen?

"Actually, I've only heard about ..............."

Looking at Nadia's appearance, Calvin was a little frightened, but he still honestly explained everything he had heard to everyone.

Calvin certainly didn't know what was going on with Kassandra, but there were a lot of rumors about Kassandra in the stronghold. In fact, the plague spread from Kassandra to the surrounding areas in the first place, and after that, in order to prevent the plague from spreading further, the Church ordered the members of the Orders stationed in various places to isolate their places of residence to avoid further spread of the plague. And this gathering place where Calvin is located is no exception. At first, it was quite orderly, after all, the Templar Order still has a lot of authority in the hearts of ordinary people. And Casalans itself issued martial law. So everyone obediently hid at home, waiting for this difficult time to pass.

But then things changed. I don't know when the various settlements lost contact with Kassandra, and this stronghold was no different. Among them, many rumors began to circulate, and the church members stationed in various places were also arguing with each other, some believed that this indicated that the epidemic was spreading and should be evacuated as much as possible, while others believed that the situation was unclear and that they should hold their ground.

In this case. The stronghold is also starting to get chaotic. Soon, news of Kassandra's loss of contact spread among the general public. After hearing this news, the already panicked people were even more panicked, although they said that they had great confidence in the Templar Order, but no matter how confident they were, they would not completely surrender their lives to the other party. Therefore, for a while, many people wanted to sneak out of here and sneak out of the stronghold. Of course, they were all stopped by the garrison and members of the Order without exception.

However, the situation deteriorated far faster than everyone imagined, and it didn't take long for news of the outbreak of the plague to come from inside the stronghold. Many people were infected, and those who were not were even more panicked, and they tried to leave the stronghold almost insanely. But the commander of the garrison here was also resolute, and he directly sealed off the entire stronghold. Locked everyone inside!!

What follows is endless chaos and carnage.

The desperate populace began to raise their weapons and attack the garrison. Sooner or later, it's all about death, and the difference is just whether you are killed by the plague or by someone. In contrast, being killed is at least a little neater, and it doesn't suffer so much. So quickly. The colony was in chaos and frenzy, both the garrison and the civilians seemed to be red-eyed, and with the monsters who had been resurrected by the plague, the colony was soon completely destroyed -- and there was no need to say what it would be like in the end.

Calvin and the others were the lucky ones who escaped early, and these street thugs had some secret passages of their own, so when the riot broke out, they immediately sneaked out of the stronghold through the guò underground waterway, but even so, they suffered heavy losses, and now only the three of them are left.

"No one knows exactly how the plague spread."

Speaking of this, Calvin also looked depressed.

"It seemed to happen suddenly, the priest had exhausted all his methods, and even the aristocratic lords who were afraid of death had closed their manors, but it was useless, and the terrible and damned plague still spread. We don't even know what went wrong, not only the stronghold, but also the surrounding forests, many animals have been infected with the plague and become fierce and dangerous, in fact, most of the people who escaped with us were captured and eaten by those monsters........."

"More than ten days ago?"

Hearing this, Jenn raised his eyebrows.

"Do you know the exact time?"

"I don't know......... My lord, I also heard from a paladin on his deathbed, he is really a good man........."

That's all I could hear from Calvin, but it was enough for Jenn. Nadia seemed to be a little surprised by the news of Kassandra's fall, but at the moment Jenn was whispering to Enoa and Elise.

"Did you think of anything?"

"Do you mean the City of Gold? Master? ”

Hearing Jenn's inquiry, Elise was stunned for a moment, and then she quickly reacted to Jenn's inquiry.

"That's right, Calvin said he heard it from a paladin before he died, when Kassandra had been in the fall for more than ten days........." Jenn paused, then he smiled coldly and reached out to push his glasses. But how long has it been since then? We can't tell the exact date, but Bishop Howard got the news fifteen days ago......... Wouldn't there be any problems in this, do you think? ”

"So ........."

Looking at Enoa and Elise in front of him, Jenn smiled slightly.

"I think there's going on a good show right now in Kassandra."

Darkness shrouded the temple.

In the center of the vast hall, the statue of the sun god Amunla, which had been placed there, had been smashed to pieces, only a pair of severed feet could still be seen on the pedestal, and the sacred statue that was originally five meters tall had now long since been separated, and the broken fragments and limbs were randomly placed under the altar smeared with stinking blood, and the bloody heads and bones were piled together, and the original divine majesty displayed on it was gone, replaced by darkness and filth.

The time has come.

The old bishop looked up at the worshippers in the hall of the temple, who were wrapped in black cloth and kneeling there, they were still praying, but not to the god who had once given them light and hope, but to a strange stone statue that had been erected on a wooden plank.

"It's time!!"

The old bishop opened his mouth and roared again loudly, his voice as loud as when he had led the faithful to worship together, and at the hearing of his voice, the faithful began to tremble, and they raised their heads and looked at the old bishop in front of them with terrified eyes, like a herd of lambs to the slaughter looking at a butcher sharpening his knives. Feeling their eyes, the old bishop closed his eyes, and a smile of intoxication and fanaticism was evident on his face. Then he raised his hands in the air, muttering that he didn't know what he was saying, and then the old bishop opened his eyes, looked at the crowd in front of him, and then stretched out his hand, pointing in a direction.

"No!!"

The man pointed out by the old bishop jumped, and she turned and tried to escape. But before she could make a move, two knights in armor strode forward, held the thin girl down, and pulled her onto the altar. The girl struggled frantically, trying to break free from the iron hands of the two knights. But unfortunately this qiē was in vain, the old bishop reached out and tore off the black robe from the girl's body, revealing the naked body inside, and then he raised the dagger in his hand. Seeing this, the girl became more and more frightened, and she writhed desperately like a fish, trying to avoid the coming nightmare. But the knight next to her just gave her a punch, and immediately stopped the girl who was struggling, he reached out and grabbed the girl's hair to make her raise her head, and then the next moment, the dagger in the old bishop's hand pierced the girl's throat like this.

"Gurg......... Gurg............! ”

The pain caused the girl to struggle again, but the old bishop was unmoved, and he was engrossed in the dagger in his hand and slashed downward. The sharp dagger tore through the throat, cutting a vertical line through the girl's chest to the lower abdomen, and the flesh that had been cut turned on both sides, and the internal organs began to flow slowly out of it.

"Roar......... Drink......... Drink ..............."

The girl opened her mouth and tried to scream, but all she could do was bubbles mixed with blood, and her body began to jerk and jerk, and her legs curled and bounced like frogs, and bounced, and bounced, and bounced and bounced -- and then fell limply to the ground, and there was no more movement.

The old bishop didn't care about the dead girl, he stretched out his hand and reached into the girl's body, and then grabbed it hard, and when his hand was withdrawn again, in the center of the old bishop's palm, there was already an extra heart. Then I saw the old man open his mouth like this, bite it hard, and then began to suck desperately, and in just a moment, the heart was eaten by the old bishop. It was only then that he raised his head and looked at the crowd again. And at this moment, in front of him, the believers who were still with frightened eyes stared at the corpse of the girl who had been cut open by the paladin, with bright eyes, revealing a look of excitement and greed.

"Praise be to death!"

"Praise Death!!"

Accompanied by the call of the old bishop, the faithful raised their hands and called out loudly.

And at this moment, the flames in the temple have finally reached their peak. (To be continued......)
