Release that Witch

Tucktor climbed the thick wall of the new holy city and slowly walked to the mottled wall.

This is probably the most peaceful month of the demon after the establishment of the fortress city.

In order to resist the attack of the evil beast, no matter how big the snow is in the past, some people will clean and de-ice, so the city wall always maintains its characteristic blue-gray, which is particularly eye-catching in the background of white. But now, he left a series of footprints in the flat snow.

There were no slabs of stone and no stains on the slabs, and all the traces of the battle were buried in the snow, as if nothing had happened. This was absolutely unbelievable in the past.

It’s just that there have been so many recent changes, so that this incredible is not so interesting.

It was thought that the holy city of Hermes would be stepped on the ground before the wave of evil beasts, and all the believers were prepared to coexist with the cathedral, but did not expect that there were very few enemies in the snowfield. I didn’t even mean to climb the wall.

Before everyone could celebrate, the gods showed its impermanence in a very cruel way.

Since the scavenging of the Grey Fortress consumed too much power in the church, their primary task after the winter was to re-elect the three bishops and the corresponding senior staff. In order to stabilize the order of the Holy City and at the same time to restore the believers' faith in the gods, many young believers have become the backbone. He also became one of the temporary bishops because of the identity of the original presiding judge.

However, just as the situation improved slightly, the cathedral suddenly collapsed on a windless night, and even a group of high-rises fell into the deep pits of the earth, instantly crushing the feelings of the rest of the people. And he happened to have escaped the disaster because of the patrol camp.

No one knows how it happened, even though it has been heard that there has been a fire in the core area of ​​the church underground, and it has been invaded by evil spirits, but without the permission of the pope, they cannot enter the sect of the sect, even if acting as the Pope. The same is true of the whereabouts of Lun’s adults.

It can be said that the collapse of the Cathedral of Hermes is even more serious than the defeat of the army. The failure of the army can be the reason of the command. It can also be attributed to the enemy being too cunning, but the tower of the sky that represents the unyielding will is the spirit of the church. The symbol of its captivity is equivalent to the fact that the gods have abandoned the church.

In the case of a floating heart and a situation in which the situation is in jeopardy, it has almost become the last straw to overwhelm the horse, even if he blocked the scene for the first time. The inhabitants of the Holy City began to flee Hermes. First, a small number of merchants and peripheral businessmen whose beliefs were not so firm, followed by the outer city and the inner city... The fear spread like a plague, but there was no God-given antidote to contain it.

He organized all the trials and priests and held a pious prayer on the wall, hoping that the gods would once again look at the last bastion of mankind, and not let the thousands of souls behind them be swallowed up by evil **** forces, but always Did not get any response.

Tucktor also remembers that Pope Mein’s teachings wanted to fight against evil. The only strength that he could rely on was that in addition to praying to God, he could not think of other ways to stop the broken beliefs.

"The bishop is... you are here," a woman’s voice suddenly sounded behind her. "The troops chasing the fugitives are back, but..."

"There are a few scattered, right?" He turned back and said softly.

The reporter was the surviving judge of the trial, and replaced Farina, who was on her own mission. In her face, Tucker saw a few familiar shadows. After thinking about it, he recalled the predecessor camp warrior who dedicated himself to the church. Eleania was a rare female trial warrior. They all had the same determination. Character, one can still persist in fighting when the teammates die and wounded, and the evil beast approaches the wall of the cathedral; one takes over the burden of commanding the trial army when the church is crumbling, and tries to maintain the collapsed state on the controllable edge. .

"Yes," Farina groaned angrily. "The group of recruits who are temporarily joined cannot be used at all. There are more than 20 people when they go out. Only one or two of them will be neglected in training. It may have been killed by the fugitives. If you find me, they must be good-looking these traitors!"

"It's inevitable," Tucker sighed. "How many people are there in the Judges?"

"The 564 people, now guarding the inner wall of the holy city, should be able to stop the escape of the inner city residents."

In addition, the hundred-year-old gods who have not been crushed in the ruins of the church are the last elite of the church... He knows clearly that it is impossible for people to block the devil's attack. It is a foregone conclusion. .

Regarding this extremely powerful enemy, he had learned from Meien’s mouth. All the efforts made by the church are to preserve humanity when the war of the last days comes, so that the continuation of the fire will not be extinguished, so there will be such a powerful warrior as the Prisoner. But this is not enough. Before the advent of this war, the church must unite the four kingdoms and integrate the power of all mankind to hope to win.

Since the hope is no longer there, what is the significance of everyone sticking to this plateau fortress?

What he can do next is really little, but for these more than 500 people, it may be a relief.

"Go to the east," Tucker said. "Whether it’s going to the winter or the wolf, as close as possible to the coast, we can build a new holy city there."

So even if the devil breaks into the four kingdoms, you can take a boat from the port and escape to a farther place. If you are lucky, you can spend this life safely before the humanity is destroyed.

"Leaving Hermes?" Farina was stunned. "But adults... Who are going to resist the evil beast when we are gone?"

"If the evil beast enters the hinterland of the mainland from the big gap, it is also the crime committed by the gray castle. The imperative task of the church is to preserve the power. If the cathedral is gone, it can be rebuilt, but the believers cannot afford to lose, wait until the evil beast is in the four major When the kingdom is flooded, people will remember our strength again."

It doesn't matter what the evil beasts are. They are not real enemies. The deadly threat comes from the depths of hell, and you can't do anything about it. The last thing I can do is to keep you away from the battlefield as much as possible to protect humanity. You have done enough.

Farina wrinkled her eyebrows. "The ones who are determined to stay here are the devout who are willing to live together with the Holy City. They may not promise to abandon Hermes."

"The place where you are is the holy city, the children. They will promise, as long as you persuade." Tucker paused. "And this is also the order of the Pope to save himself, continue the church, understand?"

How much can be walked, the fugitives will soon spread these news, and by then, the king of the Grey Fort is probably going to be eager to move.

"I know, adults... no, kneel down." Farina bit her lip and finally clenched her fists in her chest and bent over.

At this moment, the gray sky suddenly had a touch of dimness. He turned and saw a gap in the clouds. The orange-red sunset slowly reflected the figure and cast the road to the white snowfield.

"This is... the end of the evil month?" Farina revealed a hint of joy.

"Well, it will take a long time for the snow to melt, so let's tell everyone. If you start to prepare, you can start two or three weeks later."

"Yes, then I will retire first!" She nodded and ran towards the inner city.

At this moment, the prayer bells that announced the dusk also came from the holy city. The nine bells and clocks have both the meaning of timekeeping and the moment when the believers bowed their eyes to the gods.

But Tucktor did not pray.

Because the gods have not heard it.

He took off his crown and placed it on the wall, then climbed the wall and looked into the distant sunset.

If you want these people to completely abandon Hermes, he still has one thing to do.

But Tuck doesn't mind, because he can stay with the companions who have fought side by side.

This twilight is not only the sunset of the church, but also the sundial of all mankind.

He closed his eyes and dumped his body.

......

Farina heard a slight collision behind her, like something slipping into the valley.

She turned her head back and saw that there was no one on the wall.

Twilight clock is finished
