While there was chaos around the Paladin team, no one noticed that a figure quietly approached Glory's city gate.
He placed his hand gently on the closed door.
At that moment, it was as if a strong wind carrying moisture rolled up, passed through the gap in the door, penetrated behind the door, and slowly pushed the door bolt that sealed the door. The Paladins who were responsible for guarding the gate below were also blown away. Coupled with the movement above their heads, they had no time to care about the city gate.
Just like that, driven by the strong wind, the door that had been closed for nearly half a month slowly opened with a loud creaking sound.
Following this, people's attention shifted from the revolving waterfall at the top of the city to the suddenly opened city gate.
"That is… "
Everyone was stunned.
"The real His Majesty has appeared in Changhe Town, gathering the brave men from all over the world to fight against the church that has occupied the palace. People of Glory, look at what the church has done? The city gate has been opened, and the choice is in your hands! "
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the sky and echoed in Glory.
I saw Benjamin flying in mid-air, and countless papers spilled from his bag, covering the streets and alleys of Glory. People picked it up with a look of astonishment and saw that the content on the paper was very simple, just line after line of words, recording slogans such as the ones he just shouted.
—This is the weapon that Benjamin asked the king to prepare for the public opinion war. Many copies have been printed, so it is just right to use it now.
While the guard was being held down by thousands of water-shaped birds, he flew back and forth over the city, letting his voice spread to every corner of Glory.
Soon, riots broke out among Glory's crowd.
Many people ran out of their homes carrying baggage and weapons, and rushed towards the open city gate in groups - they were obviously well prepared. The church has been closed for too long. Many people have left their hearts and have packed their luggage, waiting for an opportunity like today.
Not only that, Benjamin also noticed that some people rushed out of the dark alley, with their faces covered and carrying knives, and they even rushed directly to the palace in the center of Glory.
And looking at the number of people, there were quite a few masked people who suddenly appeared, there seemed to be hundreds of them.
These must be the rebels within Glory, right
Thinking of this, Benjamin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
It's really courageous to be able to rush out under such circumstances. It's a pity that if the palace can be captured so easily, then Benjamin can't help but be busy here.
He glanced in the direction of the palace.
"Are you coming out?"
At that moment, he suddenly turned around while flying in the sky, accelerated, and flew out from above Glory.
The church's people were about to move out, so he didn't hesitate and fled the scene, leaving the people and paladin guards below behind. Thousands of birds that were constantly bombarding the city also stopped at this time, all turned their heads, and chased Benjamin's figure, like overwhelming falcons worshiping their phoenix.
Such a scene made the people who kept running away a little stunned.
"Are these...all magic?"
Before people could stand still for a few seconds, the troops near the kingdom surged out like a tide. Suddenly, the people fleeing panicked and stepped up their pace to rush out.
at the same time.
"You sinful guy... Do you really think that Glory is a place where you can come and leave whenever you want?" A voice blessed by divine magic came from far away from the direction of the palace.
Suddenly, a ray of holy light fell from the sky, completely drowning the group of masked men rushing towards the palace. Then, a large group of priests appeared out of nowhere and flew into the sky. The number was extremely spectacular.
The leader, Bishop Cameron, had a stern look on his face. As soon as he appeared, he chased after Benjamin.
Benjamin turned his head and glanced at Bishop Cameron.
"Goodbye, I'll challenge you next time."
He smiled and waved his hand, and the thousands of water-shaped birds following him turned around again and swarmed towards the bishop.
Upon seeing this, the bishop immediately summoned a shield of holy light to block in front of him.
However, the indomitable vitality of thousands of flying birds cannot be underestimated. Even the simplest attack method of turning into water and impacting, after a few rounds, the bishop's figure can be submerged in it, blocking his pursuit.
In this short period of time, the bishop could not do anything else except keep summoning shields.
As for Benjamin, he took advantage of this opportunity to fly further. The group of priests who flew over to chase him were also completely thrown away at this moment.
Soon, his figure disappeared from the sight of the priests. The flying birds also turned around and flew away in a swish. However, looking at the direction Asuka was going, many priests showed signs of reluctance.
"Your Majesty Bishop, we..."
"Stop chasing." Being constantly besieged by thousands of birds, the bishop looked a little embarrassed. He shook his head and said, "Stabilize Glory's situation first, and then deal with this guy slowly in the future."
Benjamin's speed and strength made them feel a little desperate. If he chased him alone, he even suspected that he might be killed by design.
Therefore, he could only forcefully swallow this breath.
The priests heard this and understood this truth. They turned and looked at Glory. The capital city in front of them was a complete mess. Countless people were running out. The guards near the city gate had recovered somewhat, but they alone could never suppress such an out-of-control crowd.
In fact, the situation had reached such a point that it was somewhat beyond their control. However, Glory is already their biggest remaining bargaining chip. Without Glory, the entire Carrites would be beyond their control.
-They must suppress these mobs, even if they have to use extreme force and bloodshed.
Therefore, the priests nodded, turned around and flew back into the chaotic Glory.
Bishop Cameron also hurriedly flew back to the palace.
"We can't continue like this, we must call for help."
He muttered to himself as he quickly walked towards the room where the palace was. He took out a book-like magic tool from a drawer, opened a page, and prepared to use it to deliver new news to the Horli Kingdom.
However, just then!
"Do you know how much time you wasted on me just to wait until you were alone?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind the bishop, scaring the bishop who was about to speak into a cold sweat.
He took out the cross from his pocket and crushed it. He turned around and saw a dark shadow flashing past the palace room.
At that moment, the bishop felt a chill in his throat.
"How, how come... I can't stop..."
Then, his vision gradually blurred, and the world in front of him quickly faded away. He fell to the ground weakly, as if something was spraying out of his throat. The little bit of consciousness that was left completely disappeared before he could see the other party's appearance clearly.
The palace was as silent as a cemetery. The servants and guards did not know where to go, and no one discovered the death of the bishop.
Miles looked at the corpse calmly, leaned down, and wiped the blood on the dagger with the bishop's robe. Then, he turned around, walked slowly through the silent corridors of the palace, and disappeared from this place without a trace.
