Chapter 573

Mount Michel is actually divided into three parts.The earliest and oldest hilltop building, the Tombstone Church, the Gothic tower and the Saint-Michel prayer hall enshrining the skull of Bishop Auber; the La Mervière (meaning "miracle") monastery on the mid-level terrace Buildings.

Finally, in order to escape the attack of the Vikings, the local residents who sought refuge in Mont Saint-Michel established a small town at the foot of the mountain.And according to the news provided by the expelled servants, trainee monks, and believers; the army of the Holy Kingdom mainly occupies this part.

Therefore, for Jiang Tian, ​​since it is unrealistic to besiege with an upright army, he should use a small but fine special attack knight and guard company; launch a variety of module/mode capabilities by himself, and parachute to Saint-Michel with people and boats. On the top of the mountain; it is enough to carry out a surprise attack that echoes inside and outside.

As for Solas, the deputy head of the St. Loma branch of the Coldstream Knights, one of the four major knight orders in the Britannia Territory, it was an out-and-out disaster.In fact, things were getting out of hand when he managed to put on his armor with the help of his page and rushed out of the chapel.

Not only did the soldiers gathered in the towns at the foot of the holy mountain continue to disperse in the chaos; even the knights who were arranged in churches and monasteries in the middle of the mountain were suppressed and slaughtered in their own battles.These enemies that appeared out of thin air occupied all geographical advantages.

Whenever knights of the Holy Kingdom rush out of the hiding building and want to join together or counterattack; they will be blocked and disturbed by these enemies who are also knights; and then they will be separated on the narrow mountain road , or blocked on the ramparts of the ramparts and fortresses.

This situation was not temporarily changed until Solas inspired the "violent bear power" of the great knight's blood.I saw him holding a huge shield as a weapon, swinging and slapping it lightly, easily smashing or breaking the enemy's slashing weapon, forcing them back again and again,

And Solas's heroic deeds also greatly inspired the knights of the Holy Kingdom who were scattered and blocked in various places, and were struggling one after another; Like a flying needle flying around, it connected the scattered knights together.

In the end, it converged into a raging torrent, penetrating, expelling, and forcing back one after another. The enemies entrenched in dangerous places; top of the ladder.Until the enemy around the corner suddenly disappeared.

Afterwards, Solas, who was standing at the bottom of the stairs, looked up, and saw that the intersection was blocked by two unusually tall knights above; and what these two knights were holding was not an ordinary weapon, but a small black cannon. , and aimed directly at Solas who appeared at the corner of the steps.

"Careful!" Solas hadn't finished his startled words, but the same roar rang out; in an instant, he was holding the wave-patterned iron-clad shield in front of him, and was sunk in by the bombardment of huge force , broke apart again, and suddenly pushed him back two steps.

In an instant, Solas only felt that the arm holding the shield had been shocked to the point of losing consciousness; and something burst open in his chest, and a rusty smell escaped from his mouth and nose.Immediately afterwards there was another roar, and the iron ball flew tens of meters away, hitting Solas who was powerless to dodge.

The explosion visible to the naked eye shattered, and his arm, which was trying to block, slammed into the thickest breastplate; Among the knights, they were caught off guard and overwhelmed several people.

While these jaw-dropping knights tried to rescue and support the deputy head who was bleeding from seven orifices, and launched an upward attack again; the two heavy-armored special attack knights on the upper steps had stepped aside, revealing the On the edge of the platform, several box-shaped long-barreled weapons are ready to be launched.

In an instant, dense bullet trails shot out from these ignited box-shaped long tubes, sweeping away like a storm that was close at hand. These knights of the Holy Kingdom who were attacking upward; Screaming again and again, he retreated non-stop, pushing out the steps one after another.

Amidst the screams and the dull impact of the footsteps, they tumbled and fell down the steep mountain wall next to the stairs, and finally turned into bloody and sporadic corpses scattered on the intertwined reefs washed by the tide.Immediately afterwards, there were explosive bombs and kerosene bombs, which were projected into the Cavaliers' rear.

All kinds of explosions and flames burned among these knights who couldn't hide; more people were knocked over and rolled out of the range of the stairs; They fell under the mountain wall; in the end, only a dozen knights escaped in a hurry.

Along with Solas and several other great knights, the scene of the destruction of fifty or sixty mid-level and high-ranking knights also revived the momentum at the foot of the mountain, and gathered a crowd to attack again under the order of the officer. Soldier of the Holy Kingdom; the shock and uproar on the spot collapsed beyond control.

This kind of chaos and disorder lasted for several hours before anyone thought of sending out a signal to ask for help from the other side, but it was too late... Surrounded by a group of monks full of awe and respect, Jiang Tian came to the In front of an outbuilding of the Abbey of La Mervière on the back hill.

Here is a gray-black prayer hall inlaid under a huge slate shale, with a plum-shaped vault, arched windows, and a Roman-style column porch.In the outer corridors and arched windows, armed warriors in leather armor and nail armor, holding iron rods, maces, and pickaxes were already standing.

There are even some people holding light hand crossbows, waiting for vigilance and guarding against something.Therefore, the moment they saw outsiders, they almost shouted: "This is the resting place of the pious, no matter who it is, no offense is allowed..."

"Stop, I ask you to stop and get out of the way in the name of the monks who are always on duty to lead the prayer." Brother Francischester immediately raised his hands and walked out of the crowd, shouting to them: " Brother Sturt, Brother Clement, I urgently need to enter the underground altar."

"Prayer Francie, have you ever been threatened and held hostage?" One of the armed warrior leaders who was called also poked his head out from the outer corridor and looked at the few unfamiliar faces surrounded by it. Asked back: "In the name of God, we will definitely..."

"You are wrong, Brother Clement!" However, Brother Francischester continued to lead the way without hesitation, and said loudly and decisively: "No one can shake my faith and piety, even The Holy Kingdom, or someone else! What's more, the current conflict has nothing to do with us! Now, I want to accompany a holy and noble lord into the underground sanctuary; if you continue to block me, Just do it! I am ready to dedicate myself to return to the Holy Light at any time; but I hope you will think about how to face the consequences and costs..."

"Okay, I will follow your advice..." These armed monks guarding the outside couldn't help but stare and focus on a short, thick, brown-armored monk with a fleshy face; After hesitating again and again, he finally muttered and voluntarily backed away.

However, as the door of the prayer hall opened, the three-story altar with candles and oil lamps was revealed.Unexpectedly, several plate armored knights in black cloaks rushed out from behind. The leading knight not only had a large sable tail pattern embroidered on the chest of his cloak, but also had a brown and black horse mane fluttering on his head.

"Invaders!" The mane-helmed knight in the lead almost roared: he swung his long-handled broadsword and huge gauntlet saber at the same time, cooperating tacitly from multiple directions with lightning speed. Slashed towards Brother Francis Chester, who was the first to bear the brunt.

At the moment when the sharp blade reflected his stunned eyes, Jiang Tian suddenly waved his hand lightly, and these plate armor knights were swept away like mosquitoes and flies caught by an invisible giant swatter, and they slammed into the wall on one side On the other side, it slid down against the wall with a bang, but passed out and never moved again.

Only the mane-helmed knight in the lead suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and smoke was evident from his body; he actually stood up again with his long-handled broadsword, and slashed again with a few blows of air. wave.In an instant, it pierced through Jiang Tian's figure, interlaced and split on the wall.

Then, the mane-helmed knight's roar and roar stopped abruptly; because he had already been pinched by the neck by Jiang Tian's hands in the void, and he was lifted up out of thin air.Amidst the tooth-piercing sound of metal twisting and friction, the beautifully patterned steel neck guard was deformed and dented.

The next moment, the knight in the mane helmet, who was clutching his neck and suffocating, suddenly twitched all over his body, allowing a large piece of warm and smelly liquid to flow down from the gap in the armor; he was slightly disgusted by Jiang Tian Toss aside like throwing a rag.

"God is above!" "God..." Clement and Lister, the leaders of the armored warriors who came in after hearing the sound, couldn't help but swallowed their saliva at the same time, and kissed their chests one after another. He made a gesture of the cross.But Brother Francis Chester's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Brother Lister, Brother Clement," the next moment he asked loudly and unceremoniously: "Why are these armed men hidden in the hermitage sanctuary that only members of the official order can enter? From the beginning of time, the vows of monastic oaths are broken."

After a while, after clearing the last obstruction of the river, he chiseled along the rock wall and descended the stairs, leading to the lower level of the prayer hall that is almost integrated with the slate; there are still ancient Celtic symbols on the wall. Creepers and whirlpools, twisted snakes, in a large rock wall cavity.

And in the passageway extending from the hollow in the rock wall to the outer edge of the cliff, many small, rather hidden rooms were opened; afterward, Brother Francis Chester once again faced a man sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff. The old monk with weedy hair and wrinkled face said:

"Elder Cecily, please tell this lord whether the unnamed guests who were personally placed here by the abbot a few months ago, as well as those who accompanied them, are still there.":
