Demon Lord

The joy of being rescued from a desperate situation made the city soldiers ignore whether the timing of this army's arrival was strange. They quickly made preparations to open the city gate. The team turned out to be from the diocese of Bogdo.

Open the city gate! Open it!

The Holy Shield in the inner city has been shattered, and these soldiers don't care about anything else, they just hope that the army that suddenly appeared in front of them can rescue the pope immediately!

After learning about the situation in the city, the 300 Templars who arrived first rushed towards the inner city, followed by 600 infantry troops led by Bishop Benjamin. A reserve team of 1,000 people entered the city to divide and surround the city, and a team of 500 people went straight to the west gate and the main gate to rescue the defenders.

Street fighting rarely occurred in the era of cold weapons, because the defenders often directly announced their surrender or gave up resistance after the city was breached. But the current situation is obviously different. One side has no intention of capturing and the other side has come from afar just to clear up the land, so the battle broke out outside the inner city walls immediately!

The elite Shadow Blade and Elder Dean of Viper's Cross had already entered the inner city at this time, and they were fighting the cardinal and the high-ranking temple guards. Therefore, the rest outside the inner city wall are the Viper Cross troops who are queuing up the ladder and preparing to enter the inner city.

They focused on the enemies on the inner city wall, but they never expected that two reinforcements of cavalry troops would suddenly rush out at this time. Before they could put up a defensive formation, they were killed and turned on their backs, screaming incessantly...

Less than 1,800 Viper Cross troops rushed into the city, and more than 400 of them stayed at the west gate to block the soldiers who were originally guarding the city and ensure control of the gate. The remaining 1,400 or so people are now separated and are attacking around the three gates of the inner city, and nearly half of them have rushed into the inner city.

Under such circumstances, the templar knight army that suddenly rushed into the city was completely equivalent to attacking from behind, killing the two troops outside the inner city wall to collapse in one face-to-face encounter. Elvis just rushed out of the church. Holding his scepter in his hand, he shouted at Dean and the others who were fighting fiercely: The Pope is dead! Long live the Viper's Cross!

These words made the hard-supporting cardinals feel as if they were struck by lightning, their morale collapsed and they retreated steadily. But they didn't know that this was the secret signal agreed by Elvis, Dean and others in advance. Seeing that the scepter had been obtained, Dean and the others were relieved. The palace guard shouted excitedly:

Reinforcements have arrived! The Knights Templar are here to support!

Dean and the others suddenly changed their colors... Elvis took two steps like a gecko and directly climbed up the city wall with the scepter in his hand, and directly stabbed the temple guard who had just shouted to death with the dagger in his hand.

Looking out, he gritted his teeth and shouted: Two teams of cavalry, six hundred infantry, what the hell is going on?!

At this moment, his mind was full of confusion, and he couldn't figure out where the two cavalry teams that suddenly appeared came from. Standing at this height, he could just see the infantry team running in the distance, Benjamin's white robes It was so conspicuous that it made his heart drop to the bottom.

Where did it go wrong? !

Anxious Elvis kicked the body next to him off the city wall. Dean's face below was gloomy. Although the group of cardinals in front of him was at a disadvantage, after all, these old guys were so powerful that they had only been Three people were killed and four were injured. When they heard the news that the reinforcements had arrived, their morale, which had been falling, suddenly picked up, which caused the Shadow Blade and the besieging soldiers a big headache.

It was meaningless to stay here and continue fighting. At this time, the gate of the inner city was finally opened. This was originally the time for the Viper Cross to launch an attack, but at this time, Dean, the leader of the team, had to order to retreat!

Elvis' judgment is not wrong, if they don't retreat now, I'm afraid everyone will be blocked here. At that time, it will not be them who encircle and suppress others, but will be encircled and suppressed by the reinforcements behind...

Breakout! Evacuate!

Dean gave the order decisively, and then cast spells continuously to suppress the counterattack of the cardinals. The group of old men didn't have the strength to pursue them at the moment. With hole cards such as potions and scrolls, self-protection is okay, but there is really no spare power for hunting.

So Dean led the team in the inner city to retreat, but the cardinal inside never caught up.

Once out of the inner city gate, the Shadow Blade immediately threw itself into the battle against the Templars. Dean and others glanced at Benjamin's team, and led the team to retreat without saying a word. Destroying the buildings on both sides of the road in order to hinder the pursuit of the cavalry, while Elvis, holding a scepter, walked cautiously in the team, and the scepter in his hand was wrapped in a teaching robe he grabbed at hand A few layers, and at this point it looks like a bland stick.

The scepter, which was originally bursting with energy fluctuations, was isolated from Kazera's animal skin, and Elvis deliberately carried the Talador Redemption necklace that specially enhanced mental resistance and two rings with similar functions. It was difficult to affect him, but the scepter was faintly struggling to jump out of Elvis' palm, but he frowned and pressed it down forcefully.

Seeing this scene, Dean took out the red crystal he was carrying and recited the spell. When the magic power fluctuation enveloped the scepter, the restlessness gradually subsided and he stopped struggling.

Get out of here, leave the rest to Claude!

The two reached a consensus and quickly withdrew through the gathered team. Because Dean's method of destroying the building did work, a group of people returned to the gate of the city soon after leaving the battle. People resist again. Dean rushed to the city gate and did not leave immediately, but asked loudly: How far is Claude's troops?!

The soldiers observing on the city wall immediately reported: It's just one kilometer away!

This news made Dean and Elvis very excited. Their original plan was to let the Crusaders rush into the city after taking away the scepter, so that these hired knights could cause more damage to the Temple.

This was done to pin the blame on Earl Mirno in the end, and any lack of military governance was enough to make him unable to make any excuses.

Even though the sudden appearance of the Rose Cross reinforcements almost disrupted the plan, Elder Claude obviously made a clever move, and the coming Crusaders cannot be stopped by these reinforcements at all!
