Chapter 269 - The Battle of the Capital City

After several days of marching, Deucalion's allied forces came outside the capital of the Principality of Yalu.

Standing on the city wall and watching the Deucalion coalition building camps and siege weapons outside the city, several bishops of the Evil Spirit Church fell into panic.

At this moment, they had no hostages to command [Pan], and the army in the city was not strong enough to resist Deucalion.

If you want to abandon the capital and run away from the allied forces of Deucalion, you will face the armies of Tartarus and Styx head-on.

The dilemma caused the church of evil spirits to fall into chaos and split into two factions.One faction advocated staying in the capital, relying on the city walls protected by the magic circle to fight against Deucalion's coalition forces.Moreover, most of the Deucalion coalition forces are heavy cavalry, and they are not good at siege warfare.The almost [-] miscellaneous troops in the capital can already resist Deucalion's coalition forces until the Aifa Empire invades.As long as the time is delayed until then, the three duchies of Erebus, Tartarus, and Styx will naturally retreat.

The other faction believes that they should now be divided into dozens of teams, starting from the capital, and fleeing in all directions.Using a scattered strategy, using a small number of people as bait, most people escaped from Carcosa.In this way, even if some people will be massacred, the church of evil spirits can be preserved.Thus rising again in Carcosa.

Although most believers of the Evil Spirit Church chose the latter and wanted to escape, letting Synchrony become a bait to attract the firepower of Deucalion's coalition forces.However, in the end, the bishops of the Evil Spirit Church chose the former, and most of them chose to stay and fight against the Deucalion coalition.

For this reason, they also specially mobilized a miscellaneous army in the capital, so that it would be best not to abuse themselves according to the teachings of the evil spirit church these days.Get ready for the battle ahead.

Some of the soldiers had doubts about the Evil Spirit Church because of this order.

Because self-abuse and torturing others are the teachings of the church of evil spirits, and now you want us believers to give up the teachings and fight for you in order to survive yourself, why is that?Even on the battlefield, the Guangming Church has never made believers give up their teachings.

Obviously, these so-called believers did not clearly distinguish the difference between the regular church and the cult they believed in.

But no matter what, the first city defense battle began in the evening.

The total number of Deucalion coalition forces outside the city is more than 5000, while the city itself has 7000 people.Although these 7000 people are all motley crews, they can't compare with [Pan] who was sent out before to beat Deucalion's coalition forces with heavy losses.But relying on the strong city walls, countless arrows, and things like boiling oil, these miscellaneous troops are still very confident in this battle.

"Everyone, get your bows and arrows ready!" "Priest, get ready!" "From the logistics department, hurry up and bring the arrows over!"

Hearing the yelling of several low-level troops, the miscellaneous army, who became believers in the cult of the Evil Spirit Church, immediately took action, drawing their bows one after another, preparing to give the Deucalion coalition army who was about to attack the city a big and a half lesson. teach.

However, Deucalion's allied forces did a very strange thing.Before starting the war, the Allied forces of Deucalion chose to send about 100 people to shake something out of the range of the bow and arrow.

Seeing this, the cultists and miscellaneous troops of the Evil Spirit Church couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what Deucalion was doing.

Many people were still discussing what the Deucalion allied forces were doing.

"What the hell are they doing?"

"Maybe it's prayer?"

"Pray to their god of light?"

"I don't know. But it looks like he's praying."

"Then shall we also pray?"

"Stupid! The gods we believe in will not accept our prayers! Our gods will only give us strength when we torture others or self-torture!"

"Stop arguing, you guys! Look at those people at Deucalion's side!"

"God! Is that the gun of light?"

While the soldiers of the motley army were talking, the more than 100 people from Deucalion's coalition suddenly had a handful of throwing spears emitting strong white light in their hands.

And when those miscellaneous troops and people from the Evil Spirit Church were shocked by those guns of light, those from the Allied Army of Deucalion threw their guns of light in their direction.
"not good!"

"Look for cover!"

"Run!"

With the firing of the gun of light, the motley army and the people of the evil spirit church fell into chaos.

The city wall is protected by a magic circle, but they don't.

So when the people of Deucalion's coalition threw the spear of light, a desire called 'survival' kept telling in their ears: "Live."

Such an army was already in disarray just when Deucalion's coalition army projected the spear of light for the first time.

Compared with these people, the people of Deucalion's coalition army seemed very calm. The first round of the gun of light was thrown, but before it fell, the second round of the gun of light was once again thrown by those people. Voted!

The gun of light fell from high in the sky, without any explanation, it fell directly on the heads of these miscellaneous soldiers, killing many of them in an instant.

Many people were blown up after being hit by the gun of light.Minced meat, blood plasma, brains, and pieces of internal organs were splashed everywhere.What's more, many soldiers of the miscellaneous army also saw a fleeing soldier, whose head was blown to pieces by the attack of the gun of light, and then ran for more than ten meters before falling heavily. die.

Although such an attack was nothing to the mob army and the Evil Spirit Church's own people, such an attack caused great damage to their morale.

It can be said that the priests of Deucalion's allied army exhausted their spiritual power and could not kill all the people on the city wall.But Deucalion's coalition forces were able to use those priests to undermine their morale.Moreover, at this moment, many places on the city wall have fallen into chaos.If Deucalion's coalition forces officially attack the city at this time, it will be an extremely fatal thing for the Church of Evil Spirits!

However, for the Allied forces of Deucalion, it was very foolish to use cavalry to attack the city.So Deucalion's allied forces did not launch an attack at this perfect time, but chose to continue to project a few more rounds of the gun of light, and then changed to the home field of the catapult.

The catapults of Deucalion's allied forces did not project a huge single stone, but a large number of small stones.

In doing so, even if the catapults did zero damage to the city wall, they could kill and injure people from the Evil Spirit Church and those who obeyed the orders of the Evil Spirit Church's miscellaneous army on a large scale.

It can be said that from the beginning of the battle to the present, the Allied forces of Deucalion have never lost a single person!

But the church of evil spirits has been dying!

Knowing that this would not work, the Church of Evil Spirits sent several death squads to forcibly destroy the catapults of Deucalion's allied forces.

It's a pity that the death squads of the Church of Evil Spirits didn't even touch the side of the catapult, and they were all killed by the knights of Deucalion's coalition army.

In desperation, the members of the Church of Evil Spirits could only provide the soldiers on the city wall with the special large shield that [Pan] did not take away, so that they could rely on this to survive and prepare for the next battle.

However, doing so also made many members of the Evil Spirit Church feel dissatisfied.Because in their opinion, those large shields are what they use to save their lives and should not be given to those worthless motley crews.

For this reason, internal strife almost broke out within the Church of Evil Spirits, causing the bishops a great headache.
-
Sitting in the conference room of the Grand Duke's mansion, which was originally the Grand Duke of the Yalu Principality, the bishops of the Evil Spirit Church are having a meeting, discussing what to do next, so that the time can be delayed until early summer, when the Aifa Empire invaded Mirakai When Sa, let the Allied forces of Deucalion retreat without a fight.

"Everyone! Now our Church of Evil Spirits is facing a crisis of extinction. Therefore, I, Malka Aztez, the archbishop of the Church of Evil Spirits, hereby beg everyone to temporarily abandon your prejudice against each other and serve the entire Church of Evil Spirits. In the future, let's come up with a solution together!" Sitting in the seat where the Grand Duke should have been seated, Archbishop Marka of the Evil Spirit Church said to all the bishops of the Evil Spirit Church present.

As soon as he finished speaking, a masked bishop among the bishops stood up and said to everyone: "I believe you all know the current situation. The headquarters of our Church of Evil Spirits is in this city, so we must not This city cannot be abandoned. But it is impossible to block the strong attack of Erebos only by relying on those ordinary troops. Therefore, I, Tertiz Morta, think that we need reinforcements to be able to defend this city! "

"So, does Bishop Morta have any good allies?" Some of the bishops of the Evil Spirit Church looked at the previous bishop curiously.

Bishop Morta raised his head proudly, and said with a smile: "Before the arrival of Erebus's army, I had already contacted several forces who were willing to help us. Except for Aifa on this continent, Dak Aifa, In addition to Tortis, the country of the dark dwarves, there are also people from other continents or other worlds such as Little Lund, the Capital of Sin, and the Psalm Group who are willing to support us."

Hearing this, the only young man among the bishops stood up and said to Bishop Morta: "Let's not talk about whether these forces have evil intentions, just the fact that they can't support us is enough for us to give up on them. !"

"Perhaps countries such as Aifa, Dak Aifa, and Tortis are unable to support us in time, but relying on the magic circle blueprint left by His Royal Highness Amani, we are fully capable of bringing Little Londe and the capital of crimes, Holy The choir members are summoned!"

Hearing Bishop Morta's words, the young bishop immediately retorted: "Then, what if these three parties betray us? Besides, they are not believers of our Evil Spirit Church. What should I do if I refuse to obey the orders of our evil spirit church?"

After Bishop Morta heard the young bishop's questioning, instead of being angry, he laughed out loud and said, "Hahahaha Bishop Verona Kazila, what you said is really interesting! You actually asked them about their betrayal?" Let us know what we should do!"

As he said that, Bishop Morta's expression suddenly became very gloomy.He smiled coldly and said, "What we need now are cannon fodder, not soldiers!"

Upon hearing this, all the bishops of the Church of Evil Spirits present fell into silence, thinking in their hearts whether it was worthwhile or not.In the end, everyone unanimously decided to use the method of summoning to summon a large amount of cannon fodder based on Bishop Morta's idea to delay time.

However, when these evil spirit church bishops came out of the conference room, several bishops followed Bishop Morta. Only the bishop, like Bishop Kazira, who had some concerns about summoning cannon fodder, did not join. Their little circle.

However, since the matter of summoning cannon fodder has been decided, they will not stop or destroy this plan.

I just don't know why, Bishop Kazila always felt a little uneasy, and it was this uneasiness that made him meet a person, or a ghost!
After coming out of the conference room, Bishop Kazila went straight back to his room, ready to take a good night's sleep, and then go to face everything tomorrow when he has enough energy.Whether that's good or bad.

However, just as he returned to his room, he saw a blue, transparent man standing in his room, looking at him coldly.

"My name is 'Vellore', and I am a ghost." The ghost said to Bishop Kazila in a cold voice.

Hearing that, Kazila couldn't help but be surprised, 'Vellore' was a great man who developed the Church of Evil Spirits from a small cult more than 20 years ago. Although his death method is a bit suspicious, he is no matter what Saints of the Church of Evil Spirits.Even now, many people worship this great man.

However, Bishop Kazila did not expect that Vellore's next sentence would be: "I hope you quit the church of evil spirits."

"Why?" Bishop Kazila looked at Vellore in disbelief. He couldn't believe that this great man who made the church of evil spirits grow would say such a thing.

"The Church of Evil Spirits now is completely different from the Church of Evil Spirits I had back then. It has changed from an organization that protects the country from the oppression of the Church of Light and the Council of Wolves to a bloodsucking worm that gnaws at the motherland. This is not me and What the sages of the Evil Spirit Church wanted to see!"

"." Vellore's words made Bishop Kazila fall into silence.

At this time, Vellore said immediately: "The reason why I hope you can withdraw from the Church of Evil Spirits is because you are different from those old stubborn people who have been brainwashed by Evenes! You know doubts, doubts about Evenes and The words of Amani, the two members of the royal family! This point is very important! Because the Church of Evil Spirits was turned into a monster by these two bastards!"

"But."

"Listen to my child, you have the ability to serve the country, and you should give up the decayed church of evil spirits. You should not be burned to the ground with the church of evil spirits. Now Deucalion and Yugosoutu of the Principality of Erebus Si and the undead are just outside the city, and [Pan], led by the little prince, is heading here. Even if you can summon cannon fodder, how can you guarantee that the cannon fodder can sustain you until the Aifa invasion begins? "

"."

"Son, it is an unchangeable fact that the capital city was destroyed by fire. You should leave here now and go to Carcosa."

Looking at the ghost of Vellore, the great man of the Evil Spirit Church, Kazila struggled in his heart.On the one hand, it is the teachings of the sages, and on the other hand, it is the belief of more than ten years. It is difficult for Kazila to give up on both sides.
But in the end, he made up his mind
