The atmosphere in the square froze for an instant.
No one expected that this battle would suddenly take such a turn, that the well-prepared "Viper Cross" would be completely calculated by the "Rose Cross" because of a traitor... Such a thing is indeed a bit dramatic.
Gallup, who was originally complacent, was stunned, and then the angry roar resounded throughout the square—"Akasha, you traitor!"
Akasha in the crowd didn't face Gallup's question directly at this time, her eyes flickered aside, and she, who was not a strong character in the first place, took two steps back slightly because of Gallup's roar... Soft, she made such a decision entirely because she couldn't bear the tremendous pressure of "Viper Cross", but she never thought that Rubens would directly name her at this time - obviously this would not leave her any way out .
Jiang is still old and hot. Although she made what she thinks is the right choice, she is still too tender in front of these old politicians with no experience in fighting... After being exposed in this way, the initiative was completely held by Ruben Akasha in Si's hands will inevitably become the enemy of "Viper Cross". In other words, she must live under the protection of "Rose Cross" from now on, and there is no other way to choose
But no matter how Akasha feels at this time, the fact that she betrayed the "Viper Cross" and leaked all her plans to the "Rose Cross" cannot be changed—Gallup pointed at her angrily, and suddenly said He couldn't say anything else, but Rubens still had that indifferent look. The feeling that everything was under control made him take a step forward confidently, and asked in a tone like a "general" in a chess game: "So... I've accepted your gift, and the gift I gave you, do you want to accept it?"
"Did you really think I only had two teams of soldiers to deal with everything?"
After saying these words, Gallup's expression changed instantly. He immediately looked around. Outside the noisy crowd, there seemed to be the faint sound of rumbling horseshoes.
"Damn the Templars"
With a violent swing of his staff, the shadow priest immediately cast the blessing spell of "Hand of Shadow" for the helpers beside him, forcibly adding shadow magic damage to their weapons, and then waved his hand resolutely, towards Rubens With one finger, he shouted angrily, "Kill him and don't care about anything else."
This is the only way out. Gallup's decisive choice of "burning jade and stone together" did not exceed Rubens' expectations. As the scepter radiated another ray of light, the city square that had just calmed down once again set off a more intense turmoil. , more bloody fighting
The nobles who had always been bystanders arrived at this time and finally made up their minds. Although many people had already retreated far away under the cover of their retainers, they learned that "everything is under the control of Bishop Rubens" After the news, they stopped immediately, and in order to restore their image just now, they stood at the tail of the noble team again to show that they were fearless—but among them, there was only one noble who stood still in the team people…
That is Count Francis.
Surrounded by eight guards, he was always looking in the direction of Archbishop Rubens. The distance between the two sides was only about 50 meters, but at this moment, he seemed to be in two completely different worlds... There were many hidden people among the scattered people. After entering the halls and shops on both sides, he gradually came out at this time, and he could even hear someone shouting slogans such as "punish these heretics".
"Sorry, my lord."
Francis looked at the old man who thought he was in control of the whole situation in the distance, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, then turned his head, and asked Willy, who was always by his side, "Is everyone ready?"
"The four teams of templar knights have our people on the only way they must pass, and they can stop them for at least five minutes."
Willie scanned the surroundings, and quickly found the mercenaries hiding behind the huge flower pots on the side of the square in the crowd. The mercenaries were dressed in civilian clothes, their disguise was impeccable, and they even squatted empty-handed not far away. Looking around here.
"Then next," Francis slightly held the saber by his side that was originally used for decoration, and whispered: "It's time for us to play."
Willie nodded immediately after hearing this, raised his hand in a seemingly random gesture, but actually signaled to the mercenaries not far away—and Francis shouted at the same time: "Kill These Heretics"
He waved his hand, as if he was going to let his retainers go up to help siege Gallup and others. For a while, he completely lost the previous tight protection around him.
"click"
The next moment, the flower bed not far away made a loud noise when it was crushed, causing the nobles who were closest to turn their heads. But what happened next made it really hard for them to figure out what happened...
A group of guys in various costumes rushed to the flower bed, and started picking up the pottery shards. Just when others thought there was something "good" in the flower bed, one of them held something in his hand and turned around. Come on.
A military crossbow much larger than the "hand crossbow" was in front of him. When the nearest noble retainer realized what it was...the guy pointed at Francis who was not far away and pulled the trigger.
"Whoosh—"
Francis, who lost the cover of his retainers, couldn't dodge the attack from more than 30 to 40 meters away. The crossbow directly shot Francis' arm. I lost my balance and fell directly to the ground...
"Assassination"
"Protect Young Master"
"It's an assassin—"
A few guards who had just walked out immediately noticed the situation here, and rushed up to protect Francis, and then the guy holding the crossbow at the flower bed saw that he missed a hit, and immediately held the crossbow with seven or eight companions behind him. The weapons rushed up, and the two waves of people "ping-ping-pong-pong" fought together...
And on the second-floor platform forty meters away, Rody, who was always watching all this while hiding in the shadows, squinted his eyes, and the long arrow that had been aimed at Francis' head moved down slowly, and then opened into a full moon. The bowstring returned to its original shape.
He was ready for the assassination, and he was confident that he could kill him with one blow, but the scene where Francis showed his flaws and was shot made Rody immediately notice something was wrong—ordinary people may not be able to see the abnormality, but he flew from the crossbow. A strange fact is judged from the trajectory: the crossbow bolt has no arrow
Who would shoot a man with a crossbow without an arrow
Because of the wide field of vision, he immediately saw more than twenty people rushing out of the crowd on the other side, and directly rushed towards the team of monks and nuns in the monastery.
"Damn it, you still have a 'bitter trick,'? You really have it..."
Roddy immediately understood what Francis was thinking—he was planning to play an "assassination" scene to clear his suspicions, and then blatantly send someone here to assassinate Sally
At this time, there are many choices before Rody, he can continue to choose to kill Francis, or he can choose to help Sally who is being attacked - and the other choice...
Roddy looked at Gallup and the others who were madly attacking Rubens and Benjamin. After analyzing the situation in an instant, he took a step back slowly and disappeared in this film with the "stealth technique". Behind an unobtrusive window sill.
Rubens liked this feeling of being in control of the whole situation. To some extent, his "desire for control" has reached an extreme level, so that it can be called a eccentricity.
Every detail of the layout, every manpower arrangement, he has an extremely meticulous plan, and it can even be said to be outrageously accurate—for example, the formation of the soldiers' defense before, and the gap left when raising the shield, these are all in accordance with Ruben's plan. It was done by the order of the Bishop himself.
Seeing Gallup go crazy and attack him with all his strength, his face remains unchanged, but the satisfaction in his heart is indescribably refreshing... because according to his arrangement, there are five more seconds to charge from the corner of the street. The Templars who come out will directly chop the heretics in front of them into pieces
Looking at the helpless Akasha in the distance, Rubens felt a little disdain for her—this woman is not suitable for power struggle at all, she is too weak, too independent, just for a few childish ideas Then he can sell the information that "Mad Viper Cross" wants to assassinate him, huh... what does she want? Just want to get out of that damn cult
How can a person's background be cleared up so easily... Huh, when the matter is over, let her be a nun for the rest of her life.
Thinking this way in his heart, Benjamin next to him frowned after casting a "Holy Light Restoration" and asked, "My lord, the Templars should be here by this time, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, three consecutive "Shadow Arrows" exploded on the shield in front of Rubens. The bishop waved his scepter to bless the soldiers with a new shield, and then replied calmly. : "It shouldn't be bad. The Cavaliers who lead the team have followed me for many years, and he knows what I value most."
Severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and strict concept of time are Rubens' personal habits, and all those who follow him know this.
But Benjamin looked at the corner of the street where there was no movement, but only saw those believers who were timidly hiding behind the wall and watching this way. When I wanted to say something, I heard Gallup's crazy mantra chanting - "Shadows give me strength, I give shadows life..."
Many corpses have been piled up on the ground, and the scene of blood flowing into rivers has an unimaginable impact on ordinary people, but standing behind the soldiers who are frantically fighting, this "Snake Tooth" bishop released the "Shadow Priest" "A powerful spell that can only be learned at level 2: "Shadow Guard".
