Alien Paradise.

Chapter 186 True Faith

At the gate of the holy church, Xue Quan was guiding the residents who had fled here into the resting place under the command.

Although these people were not allowed to enter the sanctuary, Chaoyang did not drive them away like a plague, but set up a temporary shelter outside the sanctuary—hundreds of tents were lined up from the square at the entrance to Fafu Street At both ends, the blazing bonfires drove away the night completely, and the citizens who took refuge here could not only drink boiled water, but also use coins to buy bread and other food.

As for the injured, they will be sorted by the nuns and sent to the church.

For a while, this place became the noisiest area in Brilliant Fort.

In fact, the sanctuary's military strength is quite limited. Currently, there are only 35 guards trained. They can only fight with long spears and cannot deal with evil things at all.But when the people who fled in the dark saw the bright bonfire and many of the same kind, they would spontaneously feel at ease, even if no one else comforted them, they would take the initiative to comfort themselves.

This is what containment means.

But not all are good citizens who follow the rules.

In particular, a large part of Nancheng District belongs to the territory of homeless people and gang members. They are afraid of cultists, but they are not afraid of ordinary residents and church militia.

They even robbed the asylum in front of Xue Quan.

"Hand over all your valuables, hurry up! The city guards don't care about you now!" I saw a man with tattoos on his face leading a dozen menacing thugs to surround a tent , threatened loudly.Seeing that the other party refused to agree, he even leaned in and pulled out a seven or eight-year-old child, and put a sharp knife directly on the child's face, "I'll give you three seconds, or your child's face will have a few more bruises." There are patterns!"

"Stop!" Xue Quan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Try to move him!"

"Idiots, you are just using money to do things. Do you have to work for those nuns?" The other party ignored the security personnel of the temple at all, "Why don't you follow the blue-faced ghost gang and rush in later?" In the church, those nuns can let you have enough fun! Isn't this better than receiving wages in a low voice?"

Xue Quan sighed imperceptibly.

Sometimes the poor law and order in the city is not a good thing. Although you can act without any taboos, people who adapt to this set of rules will ignore the law more and more, such as the gangster man in front of you.In his eyes, even if the guards hired by the temple didn't want to join forces with gangs, there was a high probability that they would not clash with a large group of armed men for a small robbery.

He didn't say any more, pulled out the pistol at his waist, and shot the man in the forehead.

Within a distance of three meters, even a short gun is difficult to miss.

With a crisp bang, a bloody arrow splashed out from the forehead of the tattooed man, and his body went limp.

Then Xue Quan took a big step forward and pulled the frightened boy into his arms.

"They killed Brother Locke!"

"Revenge for big brother!"

The other party exploded in an instant, holding machetes and long swords one after another, and came to kill Xue Quan and others.Although the total number of guards was dominant, most of them were scattered all over Fave Street, and there were only three people around him.

Fifteen against three, even a hooligan can squeeze out a little courage.

The surrounding refugees screamed and ran away, for fear that the killing would affect themselves.

"Guards, set up your guns!" Xue Quan shouted, and then fired five shots in a row, killing the two criminals who rushed to the front.

The training over the past few days has paid off. Facing an enemy several times larger than their own, the team members who were originally miners did not follow their instincts to escape and beg for mercy, but trembled and stabbed forward with their spears.

The advantage of length was brought into full play here. The gangsters in front wanted to avoid it, but the gangsters behind were still pushing, and their fronts changed in an instant. One of them was pinned to the ground, and the others scattered.

This gave Xue Quan the space to continue shooting.

But at this moment, a gangster set his sights on the tent that he had robbed before.He tore off the tarpaulin with his hands, revealing a terrified man and woman inside.Then he gave Xue Quan a cold look, raised his hatchet and struck at the head!
Xue Quan's heart sank, it was already too late to turn the gun!
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you!" Suddenly there was a long howl, and a Triton woman jumped towards the gangster, her speed was even faster than running with her legs!The moment the voice fell to the ground, she also arrived in front of the pair of refugees, not only smashed the ax that the gangster had chopped down, but also cut off half of the other's head.

The splash of blood caused people around to scream, and also deterred the gang hooligans in the siege.

No matter in terms of skill, strength or skill, this woman is obviously of a high standard, and no matter how many hooligans there are, it is difficult to beat a real fighter.

What's more, there is a huge group of people behind her!

Then the situation turned to the side of the church in an instant, and the guards didn't take much effort to capture all the remaining gangsters, and tied them up one by one.

Only then did Xue Quan free himself, and warmly shook hands with the other party, "Thank you for your help. Why is the Brotherhood also visiting the church? Are any of you injured?"

Those who came were Haiqi, Lovisia and others.

"Our people are doing very well, and the wounded are basically healed by the nuns... No, I'm here to inquire about crimes! Where's Mr. Chao?" Hai Qi puffed up his cheeks and said, "Why would the city guards know about us? He dug and detonated the hive in the sewer? Did he tell the city guard the secret?"

"I heard him mention this... Do you have any losses?"

"There are no personnel, but the holes we have dug with great difficulty have been covered with cement!"

"It was actually asked by Paradise," Xue Quan said decisively, "I'm afraid of being used by cultists. Look, isn't there a big problem today? Fortunately, we are one step faster. In addition, Mr. Chao is leading a team to support City Guard, I don't know exactly where he is now. Why don't you go to the north and look for it?"

"Forget it, I'll wait for him here."

Xue Quan raised his brows, and said in surprise, "It's possible, but both I and the nun are quite busy, I'm afraid I can't greet everyone..."

"Just say it straight, what are you trying to hide there." Lovisia said with a smile, "Mr. Xue, we came here to help the church. Whether it is to protect the safety of the people, or to help the nuns You can do odd jobs. Although Hai Qi only has 100 people, this is already all the people the fraternity can mobilize."

100 people... For the sanctuary that is short of manpower, it is definitely great news!
But Xue Quan didn't understand, "Why do you want to help the Holy Church?"

"Help if you want, are there so many reasons?" Hai Qi pouted.

She scratched her head until she was glared at by Lovisia, "Okay, okay... When the explosion happened in the southern city, I noticed something strange in the city, and after I sneaked into the city, I realized that it was the cultists who were doing evil. At that time, I happened to see that the reinforcements with the banner of the Gate of Destiny were leading the people to evacuate, even though most of them were penniless and poor, I thought... this is what the superior should do... Oh, can you stop talking? Anyway, that's it!"

"Let me finish it for her." Lovisia raised the corner of her mouth, "She thinks this is the right thing, and it's something that has never happened before, so she decided to let the Brotherhood join in. Mr. Xue, what do you think how?"

Memories of the past surfaced and overlapped with reality, making Xue Quan slightly dazed.

But he quickly brought his thoughts back.

He is no stranger to this kind of experience, but it is the first time in another world.After a slight smile, Xue Quan made a gesture of invitation, "Of course it couldn't be better. Come on, the paradise welcomes you."
