I came to this world to enlighten the gods

Chapter 569 Blasphemy of the Goddess
"According to the order of the lord, from September 9 to 9 in the 23th year of the natural calendar, we will conduct military exercises for 29 consecutive days to sweep away the monsters in the foggy forest. In addition, all buildings outside the city gate will be moved out, and then the internal affairs officer will notify separately."

Not only were notices posted in Nanlin Town, there were also soldiers riding horses on the street to publicize the news.

The latest decree of Lord Viscount is being discussed in every corner of the city, and various speculations are also being circulated.

Jack's Tavern.

"Hey, what are you talking about, Master Viscount? My house is just outside the city, and it will be troublesome to return to the city after moving out."

Some leaders drank the wine in one gulp, and then threw it heavily on the table.

Someone next to him laughed and said, "Is there any other reason? The Viscount Lord is restless. The other two Viscount Lords built the city independently."

"You said that Master Viscount also plans to build a city. Nanlin Town is only [-] miles away from Natural City, isn't it too close?"

"Who knows? Don't nobles pay attention to decency, don't you only drink a copper coin and a big glass of rum at home?"

The tavern is bustling with people, and it is common to quarrel and fight without saying a few words. Of course, the tavern will stop it in time.

The two thin mercenaries in the corner looked at each other, quietly checked out and left, and quickly disappeared into the street.

In Nanlin Town, Natural City, and even the surrounding manors, there are such information collectors everywhere. All kinds of information are collected in Natural City, and then sent out.

Among them, Nanlin Town, because of Li Qing's loose management, has almost become the spy base of the Church of the Gods of Nature, and many dark elves who are good at spying on news are hidden there.

On September 9, 9th year of the natural calendar, the Nanlin Knights held a grand sacrificial ceremony, prayed to the God of Nature and received the blessing of Bishop Connie, and then officially set off.

There were 50 knights, 500 trainee knights, 28 druids, 10 mages, and 10 chaplains in the army out of the city, a total of 560 people.

There are no redundant auxiliary soldiers, all elite and professional, such a force is completely enough to compete with Panshi City.

It's a pity, because Li Qing, the Viscount of Nanlin, has a "famous reputation", not many people take this power to heart.

Just like that, such a mighty army disappeared silently in front of countless spies without anyone noticing.

In the misty forest, nearly 600 people were walking day and night. There were scouting rangers in front of them, and scouting druid giant eagles in the sky. Anyone who encountered them would avoid them in advance. No one noticed until three miles outside Xinya City.

Going further is the side entrance of the New Sprout City. The New Sprout City is not big, and the city wall around it is not many miles away from the Earl's Castle.

"My lord Viscount, if you sneak three miles ahead, you will reach the city wall. Shall we sprint directly or lie a little further away?" Knight Kerry asked cautiously, looking at the guards ahead.

After marching hurriedly for half a month, he found that the wise and wise man of God had returned, and his attitude towards Li Qing became more and more respectful.

Li Qing stared at the front thoughtfully, and said in a deep voice, "Continue to sneak, and charge forward when the opponent finds out."

After finishing speaking, he said to the two seventh-level druids and ten mages accompanying the army: "Follow me, let's mix around the city gate first."

After speaking, he led people away from the large army, showed his figure in front of the city gate, and swaggered towards the city gate.

Sporadic caravans passed by on the suspension bridge, and the city knew nothing about the danger it was about to face.

Inside the Central Cathedral of the Goddess of Sprout, believers come in and out from time to time, and every believer has a calm and calm face.

The church organization of Sienlia is quite loose, and there is no strict division of the priesthood.Her followers are stewards of nature, dedicated to growing and nurturing plants, maintaining the weather, and healing sick and injured creatures.

Not only do they tend to the creatures of the forest (although that is indeed their primary concern), they also share their faith and favor with the non-evil creatures that dwell in (or happen to visit) the forest.

Due to doctrinal reasons, the Sprout Church rarely has a fixed place of prayer, and most of her believers are farmers, druids, gardeners, and newlyweds.

The believers of His Highness are not worried about the afterlife. The goddess is neutral and kind. Even superficial believers can enter the kingdom of God after death.

The atmosphere of Sprout City is quiet and peaceful, especially in Sprout Cathedral.

At this moment, the holy figure in the church suddenly emitted holy light, and the pastor in the church changed his face wildly, and quickly threw him out of the church.

"There are enemies attacking the city"

"Quick...notify the defenders quickly"

Hundreds of priests left the church, some notified the nobles, knights, and magistrates in the city, and some went to various city gates to help defend the city.

The looseness of the organization is undoubtedly revealed at this moment, unable to gather strength in the first place, and instead go their own way.

When the guards at the city gate got the news and started to move, Li Qing and others who were circling outside the city gate immediately cut off the iron cables of the suspension bridge.

The spells that had been prepared a long time ago were thrown out in a row, especially with the big bug of Li Qing, there was no limit on spell slots, as long as the mental power was sufficient, spells could be cast without limit.

Countless spells erupted on the city gate, like gorgeous fireworks blooming one by one.

Outside the city, Kerry led the Knights to charge faster, and the last mile was almost instantaneous.

"kill"

The gate of the city was controlled by the mages led by Li Qing. They almost encountered no resistance and rushed into the city without any pressure.

While the defenders were still in a daze, 50 knights led 500 trainee knights and started slaughtering.

Most of the forces of the Sprout Church are wandering in the forest, and there are very few forces in the city, and most of them are defended by the people themselves.

Yes, there is no way to fight back in front of the established army, and the road is almost unimpeded to the Central Cathedral.

As for the Earl of New Sprout City, they are just nobles in name only. They are devout followers of the Sprout Goddess. Most of them do not manage government affairs, but yearn for life in the misty forest.

"Surround the church and don't let a priest go"

Riding a pure-blooded horse and carrying a knight's spear, the Kerry knight is majestic and majestic without anger.

The knights surrounded the church and did not attack the church. Attacking the church was a sacrilegious act, and even if it was done, it must have a good reputation.

For example, after several attempts to persuade them to surrender failed!
"Master Viscount, what should we do next?" Kerry got off his horse and asked.

Li Qing thought for a while, then sneered, "Don't go in, I'll just go in alone."

"grown ups"

The others were shocked, and entered the church alone at this time, not to mention the paladins inside, even the priest Pope is not something ordinary people can deal with.

Unexpectedly, Li Qing ignored the dissuasion of the people around him, walked into the church resolutely, and walked towards the holy figure in front of him with sonorous steps.

"Bold, you dare to blaspheme the gods"

There was a priest standing in front of Li Qing, trembling with anger, and the paladin was even more furious, if he hadn't got the Pope's order, he would have killed him long ago.

The thought of blaspheming the goddess in the presence of the most devout servants of the church filled them with grief.
