I really can't control myself.

Chapter 557 Attack

The city of Marnefera is located in the western part of the desert, and it is one of the more important cities in the western part of the empire. The size of the city is not very large. After all, the climate is really not suitable for farming. The resources in the city are basically obtained through trading, so Commerce is very important in this city. If the commercial roads are closed, the city will quickly lose its food supply.

However, the city of Maenfera looked a little weird at this time. It was obviously daytime, but the city gate was closed, and the gate was full of guards, and they were obviously on alert, as if they would attack anyone who approached.Seeing this situation, the merchants who were planning to enter the city to do business also had to choose to leave and turn to other nearby cities for trade. It was obvious that something urgent happened in the city, and they didn't want to get into such trouble.

At this time, a light flashed in the sky, and Linton and the others landed on the gate not far from the city along with a ray of light.Linton disliked the long flight time. The flying speed of his peers was actually very fast, even faster than Linton using the Susanoo, but it still took a lot of time to get here.

Of course, except for Linton, the others seemed quite excited, because they had a rare experience of flying, which can only be experienced by those who have been promoted to the holy level, even though they were in the light of Linton , but this feeling is indeed too wonderful.

"My lord, is this the power of the sealed book?" Arnaide said.

"Yes, the magic power in the form of a sealed card can also be understood as a kind of magic scroll." Linton explained briefly, "Just now I used the companion skill, which can let the user and those around him The person comes to the designated place or to the side of the person."

"Sure enough, it is a powerful divine power." Naturally, the few people had never heard of this kind of magic, and their expressions were all fanatical.

"No, the forces of darkness are gathering in the city." Linton frowned, as if he had sensed something, "It seems that the summoning ceremony is about to succeed, and it may be too late now, and the people in the city must be notified immediately to evacuate gone."

"My lord, the city seems to be locked down." At this time, Arnaide also noticed that there were many soldiers standing at the gate of the city not far away, and the gate of the city was also closed. Judging from this situation, it was obvious that the city was locked down.

"It's not right, go over and ask." Linton waved his hand and said.

Soon a few people came to the gate of the city, and the soldiers immediately picked up their weapons and aimed at them when they saw them, obviously on guard.Linton thought for a while, then walked up and asked, "What happened here?"

"The city lord has an order to close the city gate and not allow anyone to enter the city." A person who looked like a small captain came out and replied, "Who are you?"

"We are the support sent by the Church of Light." Linton said directly, "Master Melissa, the priest of our church, should have arrived here, right?"

"It turns out to be the adults of the Church of Light." The team leader suddenly changed his face, and then said with a smile, "Yes, Lord Melissa is already in the city, and she is now in the city lord's mansion. Come."

While talking, the team leader here slightly moved out of the way, signaling Linton and the others to pass.Linton nodded and walked directly towards the gate of the city.But as soon as he took a step forward, Ellie behind her whispered to Linton, "Master Linton, something is wrong."

"Yes, ready to do it." Linton said directly.

They were also former mercenaries after all, and Linton could still understand what they said, so they secretly prepared immediately.It is true that the soldiers in front behaved too strangely. They heard that some people claimed to be members of the church, but they did not question Linton carefully to confirm his identity. They were obviously not wearing the clothes of the Illuminati Church at all. Of course, the most important thing was What's more, the city gate here has no intention of opening at all. If they were to take them to find Melissa, they should be ready to open the city gate now, so it is obvious that these people just want to call Linton and the others over. Then kill them.

Linton is not very clear about what is going on in the city. I heard that people from the Illuminati Church were assassinated before, but now it seems that it is not as simple as an assassination. These city guards are obviously the people of the city lord, which means at least the city lord It has also participated in the assassination of the Church of Light.

While thinking, Linton and the others were already approaching the city gate, and the guard at the gate stepped aside, but Linton was always paying attention to the actions of the captain, and he secretly gestured to the people behind him, Although the movement was very subtle, it was still detected by knowledge. At this time, Linton also saw a few people on the city wall above the city gate watching them secretly. They all hid behind the wall and waited.

"My lord..." At this time, the distance between the two sides was very close, and the captain also approached Linton, and Linton obviously found that the opponent's hand was gently placed on the hilt of his waist Come on, it means that you are going to hold yourself down first.

"Do it!" Linton yelled directly, and the people behind him immediately drew their weapons and rushed towards the surrounding soldiers.The team leader here was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shouted: "Kill them!"

All the soldiers reacted immediately and prepared to step forward to surround them, and a row of archers appeared on the city wall, aiming directly at Linton and the others.Linton looked up at the soldiers on the city wall, and said to Ellie and others behind him, "Leave the above to me."

'Yes, my lord. "Several people also directly separated and started to fight, and Linton directly raised his right foot and kicked it on the ground: "Tudun. Tulong Gun. "

With a "boom", a large pile of soil thorns suddenly appeared on the city wall. The archer above was either directly stabbed to death by the soil thorns, or was hit by a huge impact and fell directly to the city wall, and of course fell into a puddle. .

The archers were wiped out almost instantly, and Linton looked around. It was very easy for Arnold and the others to deal with these ordinary soldiers. The soldiers were killed back and forth, and most of the soldiers were instantly killed in one round.

At this time, Linton also saw the captain who wanted to take advantage of the chaos and leave. At first, he thought that Linton and the others were unprepared and wanted to restrain Linton first, but when he saw Linton's magic, he immediately killed all the archers. Why did he dare to come up, he quickly turned around and ran away.

"Wanxiang Tianyin." However, it was obvious that he couldn't run away, and Linton raised his hand directly, and the captain was sucked into his hand.At this time, the other soldiers were running to death and were basically killed, and Ellie and others also returned to Linton's side.

"Tell me, what's the situation?" Linton said while holding the captain.

"..." The team leader was obviously a little scared, but he still gritted his teeth, as if I would not say anything.

"Look at me." Linton thought for a while, a red light flashed in his eyes, and Sharingan activated, directly controlling the team leader.

"I am a follower of the Church of Cthulhu. I was ordered by the city lord not to allow anyone to enter the city, and to kill members of the Church of Light who tried to hinder us." The team leader said.Of course, he is not a member of the Cthulhu Church at all, but now he has been controlled by Linton's illusion, letting him say whatever he wants.

The few people in the back saw the situation of the captain, and knew that Linton used some kind of magic to control the captain. Of course, the few people who were brainwashed would never think that Linton was still making up the background settings here.

"Is it really the Church of Cthulhu? Since the captain of the guard is a member of the church, could it be said that the power of the church has..."

"Could it be that the city lord is also a member of the Cthulhu Church?" Linton asked directly.

"Yes, the Lord City Lord is our leader." The captain said directly.

"Sure enough." Linton nodded. "I didn't expect that even the city lord has been infiltrated. Sure enough, the Cthulhu Cult is pervasive."

The people behind them also nodded.

"In this way, the chief envoy who wants to summon Cthulhu's servants is the city lord. The people who attacked the Church of Light may have discovered the actions of the city lord. Now that the attack has escalated, it also shows that they The ceremony should be almost successful, so don't worry about it." Linton said.

"My lord, what shall we do?" Arnaide asked.

"Where are the people from the Church of Light?" Linton asked the captain.

"The people sent by the church we attacked the night before, but the assassination failed. Their people fled into the city to hide, so the city lord closed the city, and now they are searching for them. According to the current situation, they should be hiding in the north of the city. In the slums, it’s more chaotic and suitable for hiding.” The team leader here replied that this was the truth, and it wasn’t Linton who controlled him.

"It seems that Melissa and the others won't be able to hide for long." Linton said, "Go to the north of the city to find Melissa and the others immediately, and explain the situation to them. I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion to see if I can find the ceremony." The location, maybe there is still time to organize it. After you meet with the people from the church, come immediately, understand?"

"Yes, my lord." Several people nodded immediately.

Then Linton inquired about the location of the City Lord's Mansion, and then directly with his right hand, he dealt with the captain. Anyway, he had already said what he should say, and he could kill people to silence him.

At this time, another group of people came to the city, obviously coming towards them. It should be that the patrol team in the city noticed the movement here and came to check the situation.Linton waved his hand and said, "Leave it to me, and hurry up to join the church."

"Yes, my lord." Linton's Saint-level strength didn't need them to worry at all. They also nodded and ran towards the north of the city.

So Linton and the others separated into two teams and started to act.
