Under Chen Yaxi's sickle, screams rang out one after another.
As Li Tianxiu and others joined in one after another, these knights who had been slack for a long time were no match at all and soon fell into defeat.
“Oh… God…”
Watching them fighting, Arnold suddenly felt greatly encouraged.
The ones fighting against them are God’s messengers, but aren’t these people from other worlds also God’s messengers?
These strange gods' messengers are the hope to save their world that is about to collapse!
At this moment, Arnold became more religious.
"Tie up the living ones, and then gather up the wounded."
Fifteen minutes later, all the Templar Knights present had lost their combat effectiveness.
The dead were cleared away, and the living were tied up.
Faced with the harsh interrogation, they looked panicked and frightened.
but……
But no one dared to betray his god.
Zhang Mu's interrogation failed.
"No, I don't have the ability to read memories directly. But the threatening and inducing questioning methods seem to have been blocked by the will of that false god." He explained.
"It seems that the false god's desire for control is really strong."
Li Tianxiu sat on a chair in the tavern, turned to look at the rescued woman, and said, "Ask her."
"Not yet. She can't speak yet."
Zhao Miaomiao used healing techniques to help the woman recover from her external injuries, but she currently had no way to treat injuries such as limb disability.
Unless alchemy is used.
"It should be okay to let her write, right?" Li Tianxiu shrugged.
"This is too cruel. She hasn't recovered yet." Zhao Miaomiao frowned.
When the woman beside her saw this, she hid behind her in panic.
At this moment, Reinhardt walked in from outside, looked at the woman with terrified eyes, and frowned: "Are you... from the Strong family, Joanna?"
Hearing someone calling her name, the woman's body trembled suddenly and she turned her head in disbelief.
She tried hard to identify it for a long time, and seemed to remember him. She nodded and tears of excitement welled up in her eyes.
"what……"
Reinhardt glanced at Joanna, then subconsciously looked at Li Tianxiu. Suddenly, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and he walked forward and hugged Joanna.
"Wow!!!"
The armor was very cold, but it became Joanna's last straw.
She clutched Reinhardt's cloak tightly and cried with all her might, as if she was afraid that when she opened her eyes, she would find herself still in that nightmare.
Reinhardt was speechless and could only hug him gently.
"Do you know her?" Li Tianxiu asked.
"Well, I went to the Strong's when she was little... She must have been in the group that came three years ago."
Reinhardt answered, suddenly gritting his teeth.
"I'll give you ten minutes to do some psychological work. There are some things I want to ask her before we leave."
Li Tianxiu winked at everyone, then stood up and walked out of the pub.
"Okay, it's okay."
Reinhardt touched Joanna's head, his eyes revealing a look of heartache.
He knew that people who came here might die, but death would only last for a while. If it could be exchanged for the peace of the evil land, this exchange would be worth it.
But seeing Joanna like this now...
"Listen, Joanna."
Reinhardt stepped back, held up Joanna's face, and his eyes became serious: "If we want to leave here, we must kill all the bad guys here, so we need your help.
Once this is settled, we will go home.”
"go home……"
Hearing this word that she had long dared not think of, Joanna's tears, which had just stopped, began to fall again.
……
"In this battle, we killed 98 enemies in total, captured 27, and the death toll on our side was... 18." Char reported the battle losses with a frown.
"so much?"
This number made Li Tianxiu frown.
Although this record was already terrifying, the city's military strength was at least a thousand, and their numbers were already at a disadvantage. Losing one-fifth of their troops at once was quite disadvantageous to them.
Not to mention, the injured are not included here.
"That chain has a great impact on ordinary soldiers, and... we are not completely immune to the divine punishment of the secret agent." Arnold said.
Although he escaped the instant death effect of the spell, he still suffered internal injuries.
And the reality is that the time to break free will not stop. If you move too slowly, you will be killed by the enemy with one blow.
This is also the reason why they had such a high death toll even though they had a great victory.
"is that so……"
Li Tianxiu recalled the battle situation and frowned, "Then after we enter the cathedral, you will stay outside."
"what?"
Arnold's heart skipped a beat.
Is this being abandoned?
"Don't get me wrong, this is a combat deployment. We also need someone to support us to ensure our retreat." Li Tianxiu saw through his thoughts.
"Oh……"
Recalling the battle just now, Arnold had no choice but to grit his teeth and accept the arrangement.
Although he had been a general and was very skilled in command and dispatch, he was much weaker than the Reincarnationists in terms of vision and strength.
There are still many secret envoys in the holy city, and forcing ourselves to do anything will only increase casualties.
"Also, Zhao Miaomiao, stop."
Li Tianxiu suddenly raised his voice and said loudly to Zhao Miaomiao who was treating him, "Those who were rescued will not die for the time being. Don't treat them yet. Just open the pharmacy here."
"But……"
Zhao Miaomiao's eyes wandered.
There were many slaves like Joanna, who suffered from fractures and weakness to varying degrees. As a doctor, she could not sit idly by.
"There's nothing good about it."
Li Tianxiu rejected her expressionlessly and said, "A battle could break out here at any time. We only have eighty soldiers. If they need help during the battle and you run out of energy, our support will be reduced by one point.
So if you can't sit still, give priority to treating those who are able to fight, while ensuring that you have enough mental energy.
Only if we win can they survive.”
"I……"
Zhao Miaomiao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "I understand."
Chapter 292 Justice from Heaven
"Don't be afraid, child."
In the shabby tavern, the Bishop and Joanna sat at opposite ends of a table, with the tailless cat and Reinhardt beside them respectively.
Although the bishop looked younger than Joanna, he gave people an inexplicable sense of security.
Gradually, Joanna's nervous mood calmed down.
"We are the baptized people of this year. We want to put an end to this cruel custom and save the victims completely. So, can you help us?" the bishop asked gently.
"help……"
Joanna seemed to have thought of something and immediately shook her head tremblingly.
In her impression, the esoteric cults are omnipotent and there is no force that can contend with them.
She just wanted to leave here and had no intention of resisting.
“If we don’t defeat them first, they will send their army after us, and we will have to deal with the polluted people of the Bad Land along the way. There will be no way to escape.
The only way to end this nightmare is to fight it."
The bishop explained without changing his expression, then looked into Joanna's doubtful eyes and asked the first question: "Please tell me what you saw at the baptism three years ago."
When she heard the word baptism, Joanna's body began to tremble violently.
But eventually, she picked up a pen and paper.
……
“Is there a second screening?”
Li Tianxiu was a little surprised when he heard the result from the bishop.
There are one batch every three years, with 100 people in each batch, and they will undergo a second screening.
As a follower of an evil god, isn't this appetite a little too small?
"The information we got from the survivors is this: the false god likes corrupted and twisted souls, so he tortures them until they are filled with despair before performing the sacrificial ceremony..."
The bishop leaned against the windowsill on the second floor of the clinic, looking sideways downward at Joanna, who was wrapped in a blanket and in a daze with lifeless eyes in the tavern opposite.
She was just an illegitimate daughter of a noble family and was not selected because her bloodline was not strong enough.
But because of this, she suffered torture worse than death.
The group of "believers" trapped in the holy city did not regard these non-believers as human beings.
Beatings, assaults, tongue cutting, teeth extraction, dismemberment, and the list goes on.
All the evil he could see made him feel extremely angry.
At this point, it no longer mattered whether there was a trial or not. The only thing left in the bishop's heart was the belief in fighting.
The culprits behind this must all be eliminated!
"So, how do you summon the evil god?"
Li Tianxiu frowned and stood on the windowsill side by side with him.
Caroline was leading a crusade team to clean up the nearby streets, and had rescued more than a hundred nonbelievers.
"If they need sacrifices, they can use their own believers as the materials," the bishop replied.
"Does it also need torture?" Li Tianxiu pondered.
He was angry, but he felt disgusted by what these people did to the unbelievers. He might feel happy at first, but after a while...
"It won't take much time." The bishop raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
It seems that he is quite interested in this idea.
"Then let's take down the cathedral first, and we will advance step by step." Li Tianxiu nodded.
After arriving in the Holy City, the main storyline of the mission was updated, but there was no time limit.
If possible, they should try to avoid continuous fighting.
"Ah."
After realizing the pros and cons, the bishop suppressed his anger and his expression calmed down again.
