In fact, before today, riots of various sizes had occurred many times in the city.

However, their leader did not have strong personal combat power, and was quickly killed by the royal family and church troops, and all the followers were suppressed.

Now the situation was reversed. As soon as the royal and church armies appeared, the leaders were killed.

Some were even ambushed and assassinated on their way to lead their troops to support them.

These people who were assassinated were all adventurers Qi Yun let out to play freely.

Their assassination methods are even more varied.

Those who drugged, those who dug holes, those who set up snagging ropes...

In short, there is nothing you can do.

Neither bright nor aboveboard.

But they are not knights and do not need to abide by the knight's code.

No matter what he does, as long as it works.

One man even sneaked into the church headquarters and attempted to assassinate the Pope.

Of course he didn't succeed. How could he contend with the defense around the Pope?

The assassin was pierced through the heart by a chaotic sword, and only a wisp of his soul was left to fly back to find Qi Yun.

With the injury like this, I will have to lie in the painting for at least a year.

But the injured person was very optimistic. He even felt incredible that he was still alive.

"Master, this is great! If you have us, it is equivalent to having a group of immortal legions! As long as the painting is not destroyed, we will never die. No matter how injured we are, we will return to the painting. As long as you give us enough time, we can always recover!"

The wounded man's words opened Qi Yun's mind.

Infinite resurrection, isn't this equivalent to the fourth natural disaster?

That is, if they are fatally injured, it will take a long time to recover.

Qi Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Is there any way to speed up his recovery?"

Barbara said: "Master, it's up to me."

Her hands glowed with light as she treated the injured.

Her abilities seem to be greatly enhanced in the painting and are very effective in healing spirits.

But outside, she could only soothe people with her singing.

Qi Yun felt that she needed to re-examine the role of this castle painting.

Below, the rebel army led by Kaia and others broke into the church headquarters, while the rebel army led by Dadalia broke into the palace.

At first, there were still seriously injured painting spirits flying back into the painting, but after the civilians in the city gathered under their command, the damage to the painting spirits was greatly reduced.

It's all the natives who are taking the lead.

Kaia tried to direct them to reduce casualties, but they were completely disobedient.

Everyone was frantically attacking the church and royal armies.

Diluc frowned slightly and came to Kaia's side, "Something is wrong."

As soon as these words were spoken, the door of the church was broken open, and the refugees rushed into the gorgeous and holy building like locusts. An unexpected scene appeared.

Those refugee rebels who broke into the church, after entering the gorgeous church, killed men when they saw them, lusted after women when they saw them, and snatched good things when they saw them. They did almost all kinds of evil!

After all, they were just a group of ragtag people who temporarily gathered behind Kaiya and the others without any training.

After breaking through the church's defense, the situation immediately got out of control.

A normal king would let these refugees loot, burn, and kill to vent their emotions, and then come over to tie up the mess and appease people's hearts.

But Kaia and the others are not kings, they are knights.

Kaia frowned and asked his men to stop the refugees from committing crimes, but they couldn't stop them at all.

There are only three thousand of them, but there are dozens or millions of refugee rebels!

He held down this side and let go of that side. It was completely powerless.

Later, the refugee rebels were angered by Kaiya's forced restraint order, and they turned to attack Kaiya and the others!

Dadalia is also facing the same problem.

Several painting spirits around him were sent back to the paintings by the refugee rebels, and he himself was even besieged.

Even though he has superior combat power, he has just experienced a continuous war. Now he is facing the siege of countless people, and this fighting madman is also trapped in a situation where he is left to his own devices.

Qi Yun was floating in the sky, looking down at the completely chaotic battle below.

"how so?"

Little Leisen couldn't understand this scene, "These people are obviously the ones who just fought with them!"

Qi Yun looked calm, "This is war, this is human nature."

Leisen looked at Kaia and others who were trapped in a bitter battle and surrounded, "Master, why don't we go down and help?"

Qi Yun smiled lightly and said, "There's no rush."

From the perspective of the sky, you can see that the city defense troops stationed near the city gate are forming up in order to support them.

And the rebel army composed of refugees is still attacking Kaiya and others, killing, burning and looting everywhere.

Little did they know that danger was coming.

More and more painting spirits flew back to Qi Yun. They did not die at the hands of the church soldiers in Guangming City, but were seriously injured by the refugee rebels who were friendly forces at the beginning.

What an irony.

When these injured painting spirits saw Qi Yun, they all lowered their heads in shame.

Qi Yun didn't say anything, she just put them all into the painting and asked Barbara to treat them.

The city defense army finally arrived. They were overwhelming and killed the improvised rebel army formed by the refugees.

When the rebel army was retreating steadily, they finally knew they were afraid.

Some people fled in panic, some knelt down and begged for mercy, and some pointed out that Kaia and the others were the leaders.

Those who knelt down and begged for mercy were directly killed by the city defense troops.

In their eyes, these filthy rats don't deserve to live.

At that time, Kaia and Diluc reunited the remaining troops, and there were only more than a thousand people left around them.

Failure is still secondary. What is important is that this battle brought a huge impact to their spirits and hearts.

They thought that the world was originally beautiful, and the people were kind and innocent, but they were evil. The royal family and the Holy See that enslaved them had changed the quality of this beautiful world.

They risk their lives to become heroes and save innocent people.

But at this moment, they realized that the people were not all kind.

Everything is the naive and ignorant fantasy of young men who are not familiar with the world.

Human nature is never unique and fixed.

People are complex, fickle, and full of contradictions. It is impossible to simply define good and bad, good and evil, black and white for them.

No matter how bad a person is, he has done good deeds, and no matter how good a person is, it is impossible for him to never have evil thoughts.

Reality hit them head-on, leaving them in confusion.

But reality will not pamper them as the protagonists of the movie. It will not give people time to slowly undergo ideological transformation. The city defense army rushed over.

The painting spirits rushed to fight, but the outcome was already determined.

The painting spirits sent out returned to Qi Yun's side, including Kaiya and other generals.

There is still doubt about life on their faces.

"Do you feel disappointed?"

Kaiya and others looked at Qi Yun.

"Reality is not the Mondstadt that is full of beauty and freedom."

"The cause that you are willing to sacrifice your life for may not even be able to receive a sincere gratitude."

"This is the huge gap between reality and ideals."

Kaia and others fell into deep thought.

Little Leisen asked: "Master, have we failed? Do we want to leave here?"

Qi Yun smiled: "Why are you leaving?"

This war has continued until now, and it is already evening. Fog has appeared on the ground at some point. The fog is getting thicker and thicker and soon covers the entire city.

Red thorn vines have been growing and spreading in the city since the beginning of the war, and no one noticed anything unusual.

Blood and resentment are the best nutrients for the growth of ruby.

By the time people realized something was wrong, blood-red vines had covered the entire city.

Thorny thorny vines bound the soldiers' feet, tripping them to the ground. The battle had just ended, and the people who were preparing to clean up the mess let out screams of terror.
