……

The ice and rain drifted away, diluting the bloody smell in the holy city. Aleshia was standing on the sword and gasping violently.

It was not the first time she participated in the Hermes defense battle, but she never thought that the New Holy City might have a day of loss.

The city wall is completely finished.

Aleshia had never seen such a terrible monster. The huge insect-shaped mixed beast rushed out from the ground, its body against the glacier cliffs, its bones and claws embedded in the wall like barbs, climbing to the top of the city wall step by step, and its body was not completely exposed to the ground.

It would be fine if it was just a huge body, but no one expected that the monster would open his bloody mouth and spit out a large number of mixed evil beasts from his mouth, and the city wall suddenly exploded.

The originally orderly team was hit by the evil beasts, and the advance battalion of the Judgment Army where Alexia was located was also divided. She watched her comrades swallowed by the evil beasts, but she could do nothing.

The warm human blood mixed with the monsters' black blood and flowed along the cracks on the stone floor.

With the sound of retreating horns, the catapults placed in the holy city were also activated, and the half-man-high granite fell from the sky, completely ignoring that there were still many people on the top of the city and the King's team.

Alessia only remembered that a huge rock happened to hit Captain Dikato, who was guarding him. After he got up from the ground, he saw that he had been embedded in a cracked and concave stone slab with his armor. His body was like a piece of wrinkled parchment, and his intestines flowed out from the crack in his abdomen, and a small puddle was formed under him with steaming blood.

If she didn't jump before the stone landed, she was afraid that the outcome would be the same as him, she thought.

As for how he finally broke through the siege and retreated under the city wall, Ereshia could not remember it very clearly.

Screams and curses were everywhere around, and everyone was waving their weapons to slash and killing wildly. I don’t know whether they were fighting against evil beasts or fighting with their companions.

There were only twelve people living in a team of more than 100 judges, including himself.

What to do next, Captain!

Captain Aleshia!

Alessia suddenly came to her senses. Yes, according to the regulations of the Judgment Army, if the captain died in battle, the deputy captain should take over the position of captain and lead the team to continue fighting.

She bit her lips until a smell of iron fills her mouth. When we go to the north gate of the Holy City, the evil beast must pass there if it wants to attack the new Holy City.This order means giving up all the residential areas between the walls and the inner city, but she has no choice but to have no place to be more important than the Cathedral of Hermes, the church's center.

And there was another sentence she didn't say, and even the glaciers and cliffs couldn't stop these monsters. What role could she and the remaining eleven people play?

Perhaps today is the day for her to devote herself to heaven. May you be kind, she prayed in her heart and shouted, The Judgment Army will never give up!Let's set off!

The judge will never give up!The others shouted in unison.

The twelve men lined up in a column and trotted all the way to the north gate. The sound of fighting in the city wall gradually weakened, and finally disappeared into the sound of wind and rain.

After arriving at the north gate, Aleshia saw that many judges had gathered in front of the suspension bridge. It seemed that everyone was thinking about the same thoughts, which made her feel a little better.

However, at this critical moment, the suspension bridge was put down.

Aleshia frowned, walked to a handsome warrior wearing the red robe of the presiding judge, clenched his fists and said: Mr. Judge, I am the captain of the fourth team of the advance battalion, Aleshia Quinn!

I am Taktor, the head of North Gate Defense.Thank you for your hard work, the man nodded and said, we have set up an emergency center behind the North Gate. If there are wounded people in your team, you can send them over.

Sir, I don’t understand why not raise the suspension bridge at this time?Evil beasts on the city wall may swarm at any time, and we must ensure that the inner city remains unreal.

Calm down, captain, I know you and your team members are not afraid of sacrifice, but meaningless sacrifice is meaningless. The church is far from the last moment. He reached out to wipe the rain on his forehead and stood by the gathering place. If the cold-relief pills are used up, remember to ask the qualifier for it.

After the presiding judge said this, Aleshia realized that she was very cold. After she got out of the battlefield, the sweat and the cold rain mixed together, almost making her whole body frozen in the ice.

The biting cold wind blew towards her, and she couldn't help but tremble.

He took out the sheepskin bag from his underwear pocket and shook it into his palm, but only some sticky liquid flowed out.

It seemed that she accidentally crushed the pill during the battle. She sighed and raised her head, but found a brown-red cold-repelling pill handed to her.

Let's eat mine first, Taktor smiled at her, and I'll just return it to me when the time comes.

Aleshia was not polite. She took the ball and bit it and swallowed it in one bite. Maybe we wouldn't have a chance to eat this again.

It's Ah, that's pretty good, Tucker actually nodded in agreement. This thing is really too unpalatable.

As soon as she finished speaking, a strong smell of fishyness surged from Aleshia's stomach. Even the battlefield where corpses were everywhere would not emit such a disgusting smell. She felt that what she had eaten was not a pill, but a long-rotten mixture of flesh and blood. The unbearable sourness continued to flow from her abdomen to her whole body. The chill suddenly faded away, and then a burning warm current flowed down her blood vessels.

The body temperature gradually recovered, and the frozen sweat began to slide down again. A burst of white air appeared on her head, and her numb toes regained their consciousness again.

But not today, seeing her taking the cold-relieving pill, the presiding judge waved his hand and said, "The Divine Punishment Army is coming from the cathedral, and the evil beast cannot pass the north gate."Take your people to the assembly ground and remember to check their pills.Don't be like you, you don't realize it's gone until you use it.

God's Punishment Army, the most elite force in the hands of the church!

Aleshia has heard of it for a long time, but she has never seen it with her own eyes.

But... even if the Divine Punishment Army is as powerful as the rumor, it is still a human being after all.

With this body alone, no matter how much training is, it is impossible to easily defeat a large group of mixed evil beasts Ah.

But since the presiding judge said so, she had to take eleven team members away from the north gate and move closer to the gathering ground to the west.

Hundreds of retreating judges have gathered here. They stood in the rain in groups of three or three, allowing the rain to flow through their cheeks, and some even sat directly on the ground, looking listless.

Only a small number of people were still lined up in an orderly manner, waiting for enemies that could appear at any time.

If it were a few days ago, Ereshia would definitely stand up and scold them, but now, she is also confused.

In order to build this new holy city, countless compatriots were buried here. It can be said that every brick here is filled with the blood of believers and the judge army.

The bishop often said that occupying Hermes is equivalent to owning the kingdom of God on earth.

However, today, the Kingdom of God seems to be about to fall into the hands of the devil's minions.

The evil beast is here!Someone shouted, prepare to face the enemy!

Aleshia cheered up, raised her giant sword, stared at the shadows that were approaching rapidly in the sky, and shouted loudly: For Hermes!

For the New Holy City!
