Chapter 266: Eager for quick success

\u003e Paladins capture men trapped in nets that cannot move. ． After COM confirmed that there was no living person in this land, with their indifferent to cruel expressions, they left the dead city they had created with their own hands. They all flocked to the holy city in the center and handed it over to other clones to create armor armies.

There was a great battle in the holy city of Kasiri, the sky and the earth were darkened, there was lightning and thunder. Then the surrounding towns and villages turned into a dead city, except for the rotten bones of women and children, and no trace of flesh and blood could be seen. Such a piece of news immediately spread across the entire continent in a short period of time!

And when all the countries on the mainland were shocked and turned their attention to the Holy See, they learned that His Majesty Pope Gregory III sacrificed himself to fulfill the guardian's duty against the invading enemy forces of the Night Owl Society. Vocational duty. After the unanimous vote of eleven cardinals, Paladin, the head of the newly established Sword of Dawn, was strangely unanimously elected as the new pope of the Holy See! His Majesty Pope Urban II!

Of course, these are all things for later. At this moment, Oxwell, who led the executive officers and a large number of Hospital Knights, had no idea that the Holy City had completely become Paladin's puppet. He just faithfully fulfilled the order issued by Gregory III and led the army to annihilate this heretical Night Owl Society who was trying to provoke chaos across the continent.

At this moment, on the plain outside Ye Xiaohui Forest, a forest of marching tents blocked the sky and the sun. The land as far as the eye could see was covered with a sea of ​​people. The one passing by was not an executive wearing a gray-white divine robe and carrying a sword of judgment on his back. He is a hospital knight wearing robes and armor with a white cross on a black background. Everyone is gearing up, because these hospital knights feel honored to be able to participate in such a task of exterminating heretics. If their leader hadn't been discussing matters with the director of the tribunal, they would have been so impatient that they would have secretly broken into the forest filled with black mist. Give all these night owl black wizards who do not know life and death the most just trial!

Among such endless tents, there is a large tent in the center. The three extremely high flags are so high that everyone can see them. In the center, naturally, is the coat of arms representing the Holy See’s Key to Heaven. The coat of arms of the Hanged Martyr on the left symbolizes the Inquisition, and the coat of arms of the Knights Hospitaller with a white cross on a black background on the right. Let all the knights who have important matters to see the person in charge know accurately.

I saw Oxwell frowning in the tent, stroking his beard, and looking at the parchment map on the table in deep thought. Suddenly, he was brought back to reality by a call: "Your Majesty, Cardinal Archbishop. We are already here. We have been waiting for nearly half a month. The nearby principalities have taken full responsibility for food supplies. The five legions of the Engelland Empire, with 100,000 troops, have also approached the forest from the north. Why don't we take advantage of this moment to strike hard? Wait for those evil ones Things won’t be so easy when the elves arrive with their armies.”

Oxwell looked up and saw a man wearing full black plate armor. The big man with an old beard wearing a black robe with a white cross outside looked a little depressed. This man is called Curry, and he is the leader of the Knights Hospitallers. Obeying the orders of the Ninth Cardinal Archbishop in charge of him, as well as the orders of the Pope.

There has never been much contact between the Knights of the Holy See and the Inquisition. Curry, who looked down on these executioners, still acted respectfully. Because no matter what. This Oxwell is at the same level as his boss, a cardinal. It's not something he can offend at will.

"Kuri, you are too impatient. Although our and the empire's troops are ready, but with the despicable character of the opponent, most of them will not start a war with us. They will run. Run desperately. Before we besiege, we must first Surround the forest. Encircle and suppress these dirty guys with all your strength."…,

Oxwell came like this without raising his head. Suddenly he stretched out his finger and pointed at the yellowed parchment, which showed a canyon outside the Ye Xiaohui Forest, and then said: "You should also understand this deeply. In the encirclement and annihilation, a gap must be left open for the attempt." The fleeing enemies have a way out. In this way, they will not fight to the death if they are not in a completely desperate situation. Of course, once they run to this only gap and enter the canyon, a large number of them will be waiting for them. Crossbow bolts of blessing and holy water and blessing.”

Hearing this, Curry curled his lips secretly and didn't care. This sounds nice, but when the war actually breaks out, the situation is ever-changing, and there may be no room for improvement in front-line operations. Curry, who didn't care much, just gave a perfunctory answer. A somewhat dissatisfied Oxwell just raised his head and looked at the leader, and said: "You are one of the three major knights, the leader of the Hospital Knights. What you have to do is to do everything you can to eliminate heretics and maintain the Holy See on the mainland. The position of superior divine power. Maintain the faith of the true god Enos. You don’t need and don’t need to worry about the rest.”

Oxwell, who was giving a dissatisfied lecture, suddenly saw the curtain in front of the door flutter, and a knight wearing elite full-body plate armor and a stag on his chest suddenly walked in carelessly. Seeing Oxwell looking at him, he immediately bent slightly and said symbolically: "The Marquis asked me to send a message to you, Your Excellency the Cardinal Archbishop. They, the siege network has been completed, lest the evil elves step into this area. Land, I hope you can take the lead in sending out troops to attack the Night Owl Association. If you hesitate, the Marquis will take other imperial warriors and retreat three hundred miles to face those elves."

"Hey... I understand, you go down first. I'm very tired all the way here, go drink some red wine and relax." A helpless Oxwell waved his hand, and the latter, who was obviously a knight with a title, immediately He bent over and said perfunctorily: "Thank you for your kindness." Then he turned around and left. Only a brooding Oxwell and a secretly gloating Curry were left.

"Forget it, let's start the war. After all, we don't have much time. We don't know when those elves will come, so it would be good to start the war earlier." Oakswell answered as he shook his head and slumped in his chair. Curry immediately responded with a snicker, grabbed his sword and strode out of the tent with his head held high, and began to order the army to pack up, put on armor and supplies, and march towards the forest filled with black mist.

In the empty big tent, only Oxwell was left slumped in a chair. He looked at the cross on the table in confusion, and said with a lot of worry: "Because of the cruel methods of the Night Owl Society, you guys Are you all angry? Do you wish you could capture Ye Xiaohui in one go? Hey, eyes blurred by tears can never see the future." (To be continued...)
