Taktor climbed the thick walls of the New Holy City and slowly walked to the mottled walls.
This is probably the quietest demonic moon that has been spent after the establishment of the fortress city.
In order to resist the attacks of evil beasts, in the past, no matter how heavy the snow was, people would clean and deicate it. Therefore, the city wall always maintained its unique blue-gray color, which was particularly eye-catching against the white background.
But now, he left a series of footprints in the flat snow.
There were no potholes and bumpy stone pavement, nor were there blood stains that were immersed in the gaps. All traces of battle were buried by snowflakes, as if nothing had happened. This was definitely an incredible scene before.
But there are so many drastic changes recently that this incredible thing is not that concerning.
It was thought that the Holy City of Hermes would be stepped onto the ground in front of the tide of evil beasts that swarmed in. All the believers were ready to live and die with the cathedral, but they did not expect that there were very few enemies in the snowy field, and they did not even mean to climb up the city wall.
Before everyone could celebrate, the gods showed its impermanence in an extremely cruel way.
Because the conquest of Graycastle consumed too much power from the church, their primary task after the beginning of winter was to reselect the three major bishops and corresponding senior officials.
In order to stabilize the order of the holy city and to restore the believers' faith in the gods, many young believers became backbones, and because of his identity as the former presiding judge, he became one of the temporary bishops.
However, just as the situation improved slightly, the cathedral suddenly collapsed on a windless night, and a group of high-level buildings fell into a deep pit underground, instantly crushing everyone's sense of surviving the disaster.
And he happened to escape the disaster by chance because of inspecting the camp.
No one knew how it happened. Although they had heard of a fire in the core area underground of the church and were invaded by evil beasts, they could not enter the secret organ without permission, even if the whereabouts of the acting pope, the whereabouts of the acting pope Lord Tefron were unknown.
It can be said that the collapse of Hermes Cathedral has an impact on the church even more severe than the defeat of the army. The failure of the army can be caused by command, or it can be attributed to the enemy being too cunning, but the Tower of Heaven, which represents unyielding will, is a symbol of the spirit of the church. Its overturn is equivalent to the gods abandoning the church.
Such an accident occurred when people were in a state of turmoil and the situation was in danger, almost becoming the last straw that overwhelmed the horse. Even if he blocked the scene at the first time, it would be useless.
The residents of the Holy City began to flee Hermes, first a small number of craftsmen and peripheral merchants with less firm beliefs, then the outer city and inner city... Fear spread like an evil epidemic, but there was no antidote given by God to curb.
He had organized all the judges and priests and held a pious prayer on the city wall, hoping that the gods would once again look at this last fortress of mankind and not let the thousands of creatures behind him be swallowed by the evil hell power, but he never received any response.
Taktor still remembers that Pope Mayn's teachings wanted to fight evil, and he could only rely on powerful strength. But besides praying to God, he could no longer think of other ways to stop the disintegrated faith.
Master Bishop... It turns out that you are here, and the voice of a woman suddenly sounded behind you. The troops pursuing the fugitives have returned, but...
A few of them have dispersed, right?He turned around and said softly.
The reporter was Falina, who was now the surviving Judicial Army commander, who took over her mission.
On her face, Tucker saw a familiar shadow. After thinking about it, he recalled the advance camp warrior who dedicated himself to the church. As one of the few female judges, Aleshia has the same resolute character. One can still fight when his teammates are more than half of his injuries and evil beasts approach the wall of the cathedral; the other takes over the burden of commanding the judges army when the church is shaking, and strives to maintain the collapse on the brink of control.
Yes, Falina stomped her feet in annoyance. The group of recruits who joined temporarily were useless. There were more than 20 people when they went out. Only one or two people came back. No matter how neglected the training, they could not have been killed by the fugitive.If I were asked to find them, these traitors would definitely be beautiful!
What is inevitable, Tucker sighed, How many people are left in the trial army?
Five hundred and sixty-four people are now guarding the inner wall of the Holy City, which should be able to stop the residents of the inner city from escaping.
In addition to the hundreds of God's Punishment Army who were not crushed in the ruins of the church, this is also the last elite left in the church... He knew in his heart that this little man alone could no longer block the devil's attack, and the destruction of mankind was a foregone conclusion.
He had known about this extremely powerful enemy from Maynian.
All efforts made by the church are to protect mankind when the war of doomsday comes, so that the fire of continuation will not be extinguished, so that there are powerful warriors like the Divine Punishment Army.
But that is not enough. Before this war comes, the church must unify the four kingdoms and integrate the power of all mankind to have hope of winning.
Since hope no longer exists, what is the significance of everyone sticking to this plateau fortress?
There was really little left to do next, but for these more than 500 people, it might be a relief.
Go east, Tucker said, whether it is to go to Yongdong or Langxin, as close as possible to the coast, we can build a new holy city there.
In this way, even if the devil attacks the four kingdoms, you can still take a boat from the port to escape further away. If you are lucky, you can spend your life safely before the destruction of mankind.
Leaving Hermes?Falina was stunned, but sir... If we leave, who will resist the evil beast?
If the evil beast enters the hinterland of the continent from the Great Break, it is also a crime committed by Gray Castle.The church’s top priority is to preserve its strength. The cathedral can still be rebuilt when it is gone, but believers cannot withstand the loss. Only when evil beasts are flooded in the four kingdoms will people remember our strength again.
Evil beasts and other things are simply irrelevant. They are not real enemies. The deadly threat comes from the depths of hell, and you can do nothing 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.
Falina frowned and said, "Those who are determined to stay here are the devouts who are willing to live and die with the Holy City. They may not agree to abandon Hermes."
Where you are is the Holy City, children.They will agree, as long as you persuade them.Tucker paused for a moment, and this was also the order of the agent of the pope to preserve himself and continue the church. Do you understand?
The escaped people will soon spread the news, and then the King of Graycastle may be ready to move again.
I understand, sir... no, I'm the crown prince.Falina bit her lip, and finally clenched her fist on her chest, bent down to salute.
At this moment, the gray sky suddenly became dim. He turned around and saw gaps blooming in the clouds. The orange-red sunset was slowly revealing its figure, casting the rays of light on the white snowfield.
Is this...the evil moon over?Falina showed a hint of joy.
Well, the heavy snow will melt soon, so let me tell you.If you start preparing now, you will be able to set off in two or three weeks.
Yes, then I'll take it back first!She nodded and ran towards the inner city.
At this moment, the prayer bell that declares dusk also came from the holy city. The nine bells were both aroused by the time, and it was also a time for believers to close their eyes to pray to the gods.
But Taktor did not pray.
Because the gods can no longer hear it.
He took off the crown from his head and placed it on the battlements, then climbed up the city wall and looked at the afterglow of the setting sun in the distance.
He still has one more thing to do if he wants these people to give up Hermes completely.
But Tucker didn't mind, because in this way, he could stay with his companions who had fought side by side.
This dusk is not only the sunset of the church, but also the sunset of all mankind.
He closed his eyes and fell down.
……
Falina heard a slight collision sound behind her, as if something had slipped into the valley.
She turned around and saw that there was no one on the wall.
This is probably the quietest demonic moon that has been spent after the establishment of the fortress city.
