Chapter 1297: cathedral
Lu’an’s Cathedral is located in the elliptical square in the heart of the city. This wide square is covered with neat white slabs and there are 22 avenues extending around it, as if the mains of the spider web lead to all corners of the city, as a The typical city of the country, the cathedral is also the administrative center of Luan, so it is the only large building in the center of the city. Within a few kilometers near the square, even in the whole city, there is no second place to be The church is comparable to the building. Now, this once magnificent and magnificent spire church is like the rest of the city, covered by the shadow of darkness and chaos, gradually sinking.
Numerous walking dead figures appeared on the avenue, and they were shadowy and strange. They were the citizens of Luan, the poor, the nobility, and even the monks and the Knights of the City Guard. They were stiff and blind. Moving forward toward the cathedral step by step in the darkness is like the eternal soul and shadow of the legendary country of death.
Even if this scene is far from wait and see, it is creepy, not to mention walking in the vicinity, and seeing it outside the door. Rao is a well-informed person like Hao Ren. At this moment, he can’t help but feel the feeling of cold skin. And some of the people in the Sanctuary investigation team are even more nervous. Carrasius painted a sacred symbol on his chest: "The evil forces in chaos must have distorted these innocent citizens... they have lost themselves."
A church knight took out a long sword, but after scolding the sword, he only felt helpless: "You can't let them tarnish the sacred cathedral... but they are too much!"
Yes, too many people on the scene can see that the goal of these walking dead is the sacred cathedral. Preventing them is the first thought of everyone. However, the surging figures on the street are not one or two, but Thousands! It may even be hundreds of thousands! Even if they have no resistance, each of them can't stop the power of several knights and monks.
Hao Ren’s eyes gazed heavily at the cathedral in the middle of the square. He knew that it was impossible to block such a wave of “zombie waves” with the power of these people. There is only one way to get into the cathedral at those moments. I stopped it before, and that was a fortune to solve the millennium. It was blown up before the church fell, but if there is such a problem, there is a problem, that is, Caracius may be crazy...
Just when Hao Ren was grinding the feasibility of a thousand guns, the corner of his eyes suddenly saw a "walking corpse" on the square shaking a few times, and then it turned into a black. The smoke disappeared.
Then, the second, third... more and more walking dead after being close to the scope of the cathedral seems to have been purified by invisible forces, instantly turned into black smoke, broken in the air. This process made Hao Ren couldn't help but think of the chaotic monsters that were killed. Those monsters were also turned into smoke and disappeared quickly after being killed by the order power.
"They don't seem to be within 100 meters of the church." Lily noticed the scene and whispered.
Karasius showed a trace of peace of mind: "The power of the great goddess remains in the Holy Land, and the church is still sheltered by God."
More and more walking corpses are purified by the invisible sacred power around the church like a moth. Not long after, the black shadows on the square are reduced by a large part, and the surrounding vision is empty. At this moment, Hao Ren Yuguang had a glimmer of light. He saw something in the glass window on the side of the cathedral that seemed to be shaking. It seemed to be a personal shadow.
"There are people in the cathedral!" he immediately reminded him.
“In the church?” Karasius and an assistant bishop looked at each other. “Under the protection of the goddess, perhaps still keep the mind!”
The crowd immediately ran to the church. They crossed the sparse walking dead in the square. The latter is still swaying forward, seemingly unaware of the people who ran around, and did not show any attack. Will, Hao Ren and Caracius and his party came to the church door without any hindrance. But just a few meters away from the gate, a white light suddenly came out of a narrow window beside the gate, warningly blasting in front of Caratius.
At the same time, a vigilant voice sounded out of nowhere: "No further stay!"
"We are high-ranking priests from the city of the gods!" Karasius immediately stood up and shouted. "We are not malicious. We just want to find a place to stay, and ask some things by the way!"
"The city of the gods?" The voice in the church hesitated. Obviously, this reply was both surprised and doubtful. Soon he asked, "Before the goddess' sanctuary, lies will bring ten times the punishment! Are you really from the city of gods?"
Caracius is somewhat inexplicable: "Is there anything wrong with the city of the gods? I am the high-ranking bishop of Calais, the carat of the iconic palace. If you don't believe it, you can check the list of high-ranking priests stored in your library. I will Standing here, you can compare the portraits on the list!"
The voice in the church hesitated again and became more severe: "The city of the gods has long been... How can there be any high-ranking priests coming out from there at this time!"
"What happened to the city of God?!" Karasius was shocked. He heard the news of his own creeps from the other words. "What do you mean?!"
The people in the church did not answer, but instead questioned: "You don't even know this? Then your identity is even more suspicious."
"No, we did come from the city of gods, but we have been there for more than a month," Karasius knew that the situation might be beyond his expectations, and quickly explained, "We followed the orders of the Pope, more than a month ago. From the city of the gods to the investigation team of the mainland of Ansu, our trip has a record, the investigation team encountered an accident in the mainland of Ansu, so that it returns today..."
“The investigation team?” The people in the church seem to have finally believed a little. “It seems that there is indeed this... but it is said that the investigation team encountered a storm when it had not arrived in the mainland of Ansu, the last news received by the sanctuary. It’s their emergency communications. Have you escaped?”
It seems that the Sanctuary investigation group is not a secret here, and the people in the church are also the priests who have a certain status in the church system. He even knows these news.
"The goddess blessed," Karasius couldn't help but mourn. "We got the help of a local leader. We were lucky enough to survive the chaotic storm, but we lost the hammer of the Light, and we broke off with the sanctuary. Unable to send back the rescued message."
The people in the church were silent for a while. They seemed to be thinking. After a while, they said, "You don't look like a nightmare. Wait a minute, I will inform the bishop, you should not be acquainted with the church's indiscriminate defense. Intrusion will be attacked."
Then the voice was quiet, and Hao Ren and his team waited patiently outside. After a few minutes, they heard footsteps coming from behind the gate.
There was a slight shimmer on the church door, and the defensive array covering the entire building opened a gap, the door opened, and a middle-aged man wearing a white robe and a wide face appeared at the door.
The middle-aged man looked at a few people standing at the door. He noticed that several of the men under the leadership of Caracius were wearing the costumes of the Sanctuary priests and combatants, but the armor was damaged, which was in line with the other side. No. Description of the crash, but Hao Ren, Li Li, and Yan, who are standing next to Karasius, are a bit puzzled.
They don't say that they are different from the sanctuary. Even the secular kingdom can be a strange costume. The cloak and hood of the cockroach are slightly better, but throwing it on the street is also a typical example of easy alarm.
"They are from the mainland of Ansu," and the situation is unclear. Even if these survivors hiding in the church are not necessarily fully trustworthy, even if they can trust, there is no guarantee that there are no dark claws near the church. Sisman carefully considered what should be revealed. "The messenger of the Kingdom of Talos, I can guarantee their reliability. Can we go in now?"
The middle-aged man let a road open, revealing the dimly lit meeting hall: "Come in, the second nightmare hasn't started yet."
Everyone stepped into the church, and Caracius frowned at the groggy hall, where the believers and the priests prayed. The lights were bright all the year round, and the sacred sounds were lingering, but now all the lights seem to have been withdrawn. Even the magical array at the top of the church remained silent, and the faint Mithril lines were intertwined into obscure patterns on the vaults of the hall, making the entire assembly hall look gloomy and depressed.
Between the rows of benches, the high-ranking monks saw many curled figures.
Survivors hiding in the church seem to be expected to be more unexpected?
“Why don’t you light up?” Hao Ren felt that a refuge was so dim and very different, so he asked casually.
The middle-aged man with the road sighed: "The light in the dark will attract those unclean things, and our sacred crystal reserves are limited and cannot withstand too much consumption."
Carrasius looked at the middle-aged monk: "What position do you hold in this church?"
"The archivist who is in charge of the cathedral of Lun, who is under the authority of God, is now the official priest," the middle-aged man replied. "You can call me Bernstein."
“Where is the regional bishop?”
"Hozman Bishop and other asylum seekers in the underground palace, the adults were rebellious when they last resisted the nightmare. Now they need to be rested. The affairs on the ground are temporarily responsible. Of course, you can go see him."
Caratius nodded slightly and stopped talking.
All doubts, you can know when you see the principals here. (To be continued.)
