Working Prophet.

Chapter 349
When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on the top of the Lined City, an army with various flags also appeared on the road outside the city.

It is different from those new soldiers who are thin and have a disheveled face.

The soldiers in this army are generally thick-backed, wearing armor, wearing leather boots, and wearing shiny steel swords around their waists, among which cavalry accounted for as much as [-]%.

In addition, the siege equipment was prepared in advance. There were more than [-] catapults and giant crossbows alone, and seven siege towers of different sizes.

Once the townspeople filled the moat outside the city, these siege towers could be pushed against the walls to help the attackers inside take the top of the city.

The Skitarii is nominally commanded by High Priest Martina, fighting for the goddess, but since High Priest Martina does not know how to march and fight, the actual commander is Dordot from the Mariel family .

Dordot is the uncle of Judith, the head of the Mariel family. He graduated from the First Knights of the Royal Capital and served as the emperor's imperial bodyguard. He served the royal family for 20 years and participated in the relationship between the royal family and the Wetin family. war.

After returning to the Western Region, he was appointed as a military advisor by Judith, and then led an army to slay the dragon with Hers. Although he failed, it was not Dordot's fault.

Firstly, the black dragon's strength is very strong, far beyond ordinary people's cognition. Secondly, the commander-in-chief Hells didn't even think about fighting well at the time. Erdot couldn't use his strength.

And even though the coalition forces were defeated in that battle and Hells "died" on the spot, Dordot still managed to keep most of his troops and injured the dragon.

Speaking of which, Ilea and Shuangxiu Jiao were able to slay the dragon successfully, and he also had a small part of the credit.

Unfortunately, history only remembers the winners.

Dordot led the Skitarii to attack Multiscale City this time, just to avenge his shame.

However, the direction of things was a little different from what he had imagined. Dordot led his army all the way to the multi-scale city without seeing Herodotus' new army, and there was almost no obstruction on the way.

At first, Dordot thought that Herodotus also realized that the training of the new army was insufficient, and planned to rely on the strong city of Multi-scale City to fight the war of attrition with him.

Dordot was not surprised but happy, because he had already made a plan for this situation.

But what Dordot didn't expect was that before his army set up a camp outside the city, the gate of the multi-scale city had already opened one step ahead of time.

Then the emissary of the Raimondi family came out from inside.

The person who came claimed to be Shapiro, the second son of Sir Ed, the lord of the city, and shouted to see High Priest Martina as soon as he left the city.

Dordot didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Raimundi family, but he still invited the high priest Martina, and then sent two teams of elite soldiers to protect the high priest Martina. Safe, keep her away from Shapiro.

Shapiro protested a few times, but it didn't work. In the end, he could only stand ten steps away from High Priest Martina, and said with a loud voice.

"High Priest Martina, the Raimondi family has captured the gates of Scale City for you and the goddess!"

? ? ? !
Dordot wondered if there was something wrong with his ears. What does it mean that the Raimundi family has captured the gate of the multi-scale city for you and the goddess?

Just pull someone from the western region, they all know who the multi-scale city belongs to, and isn't it the Herodotus and Raimundi family who he brought troops from such a long distance to fight?

However, Shapiro's voice continued, "Before you left Multiscale City, you went to my father, hoping to use the power of the Raimondi family to fight against Herodotus and his secret armed forces. Father also I promise you.

"But I didn't expect Herodotus to take the lead and lead people to raid your residence. After my father found out, he led people to protect you at the first time, but it was still a step late. At that time, you had already left the city.

"Afterwards, Herodotus took control of the entire Holy See as quickly as possible. Almost all of the multi-scaled city were followers of Pithia, including the guards of the Raimundi family. Although my father was the lord of the city, he did not Law and Herodotus openly fell out.

"So I can only make false claims with him for the time being, and Herodotus has become more arrogant after forming a new army, and he has completely ignored my father. My father has limited troops, so he can only wait patiently in the mansion.

"I waited until last night, taking advantage of the internal instability of the new army, to suddenly attack and fight bloody for a long time, and then I took the city gate for you."

Shapiro's words were full of emotion.

But the audience on the side were all dumbfounded. They obviously didn't expect the Raimundi family to be so shameless. They first betrayed High Priest Martina to Herodotus, forcing High Priest Martina to leave overnight. Scale City.

Seeing that Herodotus' side was going nowhere, he jumped off the boat again and opened the gate of the Scaled City for High Priest Martina.

Dordot couldn't bear it after hearing this, and said, "My father is really loyal and unparalleled."

But Shapiro didn't seem to be able to hear the sarcasm in it, and said solemnly after hearing the words, "That's natural, father hates capricious villains the most."

High Priest Martina was a nobleman herself, well aware of the shamelessness of some of them, and didn't bother to entangle the previous things with the Raimondi family, so she said straight.

"Where is Herodotus now?"

After that, I saw Shapiro's face showing a look of embarrassment, "We haven't found it yet."

"But he's still in the city, right?" High Priest Martina frowned.

"This one……"

Seeing Shapiro's faltering look, High Priest Martina knew that Herodotus had probably run away, and sighed, "Forget it, let's go into the city."

…………

Winning without a fight, taking the Multi-scaled City should have been something worth celebrating, but after entering the city, High Priest Martina didn't have much joy on her face.

In addition to the fact that the culprit Herodotus was not caught, the main reason was that she was shocked by the scene in the city.

Obviously, when she left more than a month ago, the place was still lively and prosperous. When she came back, at least a quarter of the city had been turned into ruins.

The rest of the place is also horrible. Except for the nobles who are protected by guards, even if the other civilians in the city survived the trial of heretics by chance, they were not spared again in the looting that swept across the city last night.

The loss of property was second to none. Many people's wives and daughters were defiled by the robbers of the new army, and those who tried to stop them were directly killed by the new army who had already grabbed their attention.

Tens of thousands of people were ruined in this doomsday carnival, and those defeated troops are still raging in the city.
