The knight in the abyss

Chapter 702 Statues
The guards joined Lancelow's team and marched towards the huge statue in the distance.On the way, they killed many demons and gnolls who were wreaking havoc, and rescued more townspeople who were originally besieged.However, these people fled quickly after thanking them hastily, and did not join the crowd going to the church.

The whole town is not big, although it was delayed by the sudden outbreak of fighting from time to time, everyone arrived in front of Zariel's statue after 5 minutes.The thirty-foot-high monumental cylinder of marble rests on a pedestal as high as Brutor's neck, with the inscription on it in Common Tongue: 'Zariel, Guardian of Adelgran .Pray to Lathander, and his light will protect you. '

Behind the statue is the Losander Church that the townspeople call.This two-storey stone temple is the largest building in the town, with engravings of the sun on the outer wall, the oak gate on the front is tightly closed, and the round windows on the wall are all covered with iron. The shutters are closed.

Lancelot doesn't know much about Lathander, but according to what Alamiel once introduced to him, this powerful divine power, also known as Lansander, has a series of positive aspects such as dawn, vitality, youth, and track and field sports. The priesthood is one of the mainstream beliefs of human beings in the material plane, especially revered by young nobles, and is almost as popular among the gods as mortals. close ally.

Lancelot's spiritual sense also reminded him that the statue of Zariel in front of him was actually a magical item, but he didn't have time to study its secrets for the time being - a lizard was commanding a team of four Berserkers. A team of demons knocked on the gate of the temple in turn. Unless there was a miracle, it was only a matter of time before the demons knocked the gate open.

Hearing the movement from the crowd, the snake demon turned around violently.Everyone exclaimed, but the reasons were different: the guards and the young woman were purely out of fear, while Lancelot and his companions were because of the image of the lizard—strictly speaking, except for the lower body. With a thick snake tail, this basilisk has almost nothing in common with the familiar Solem: what should have been a beautiful and alluring humanoid female head was replaced by an ugly wolf face, six elegant and deadly The arms also turned into long claws with black bristles like the jackals.Of course, each of its claws held a dangerous long sword, and the aura it exuded was not weaker than that of a real lizard.

The Berserkers who hit the church door also stopped. When there are living people, they will not spend their energy on the door without life.Like the Snake Demon, these Berserker Demons under Yeenoghu also have a completely different image. They are now like demonized giant wolves, with the original fine fangs in their mouths replaced by dagger-like canines, and the skin on the surface The unique sarcoma of this kind of toad was replaced by bone spurs protruding from the body. The overall feeling was not as disgusting as ordinary berserkers, but it was definitely countless times more vicious than before.

Lancelot took a few steps forward, and at the same time quickly made several gestures to his companions, signaling them to stay where they are and fight - he didn't want to reveal his strength too early, if the snake demon joined the battle with the Berserkers, the consequences Absolutely unimaginable.

"Kill all these resisters!" the Snake Demon ordered to its subordinates, its voice was hoarse and cold, but it never expected that these people on the opposite side could fully understand the language of the abyss, "Use their heads to meet the great Prince of Slaughter! "

"Ha, it's a lot of fun now." Brutus hammered his warhammer on the shield twice, "Come on! It doesn't matter if you are a toad or a giant wolf, don't even think about getting any cheap from your dwarf grandfather! Huh!!!"

The jackal-like Berserk howled like a wolf, and charged towards the crowd with all four limbs.What Lancelow was worried about didn't happen. The snake demon just stood there watching from a distance, and didn't join the battle immediately.The Berserker who rushed to the front jumped up fifteen feet away from the human knight, like a tiger pouncing on its prey, it had already begun to imagine that it would break the human's neck and suck food from the armor. The pleasure of flesh and blood.

However, before Lancelot could make a move, the huge angel statue attacked first.Dazzling light erupted from the statue, scorching all the incoming demons and blinding them all briefly.It doesn't last long, three heartbeats at most, but it's long enough for someone.

Except for Alamiel who stood at the back, no one in the audience saw Lancelow's movements clearly.His figure disappeared instantly, and when he reappeared, he had already stopped in front of a Berserker, with the long sword in his hand piercing the opponent's heart; before the Berserker realized his death, the human The knight had disappeared again, and with a flash of turquoise sword light, another Berserker was directly chopped off in the middle.

Lancelot's figure disappeared again, but this time he did not appear in Aramir's field of vision for a long time, until he heard a sharp sound of breaking wind in his ears.The elf priest raised his head and watched the human knight fall from the air, with the long sword pointing straight down—there was the berserker who rushed towards him at first, because of the missed attack and the sudden flash of light. Struggling in place.

In the next second, the long sword pierced through the Berserker Demon like an ice cone falling from the sky, while the body of the human knight swayed gently like a fallen leaf blown by the wind, and landed steadily on the ground not far away. superior.

"Beautiful!" Aramiel couldn't help applauding, "It's amazing that you didn't dirty your armor at all!"

"Thank you." Lancelot smiled at his partner, "The opportunity just now is too rare."

He exploded just now and directly killed three of the four Berserkers, and the only one left was Brutal's opponent—if he even snatched that one, the dwarf would definitely lose his temper, and Lancelot I'm sure Brutal can handle it.

The fact was exactly as he expected, Brutal also seized the opportunity of the enemy being blinded, and hit the wolf face of the Berserker Demon with a hammer.With the dwarf's current strength, it's not a joke to be hit by him with a warhammer. The berserker fell to the ground immediately, his limbs twitched uncontrollably. The series of heavy blows that came down quickly killed him under his hammer.

"Lord of Dawn..." The captain of the guard looked at the relaxed human knight in shock, "Who are you?"

"Mercenaries." The elf priest lowered his head and explained softly to the young widow who was limp in his arms, "But occasionally, we do some good things for free."
