(Note: Lin Chen didn’t know about Daphne’s Skeleton Army during its heyday)
In short, Lin Chen has no intention of being a cannon fodder on this kind of battlefield.
"There are four elders in total."
"Two elders were sent to ambush me, and they are currently starving."
"And with the strength of the legion commander, it shouldn't be a problem for him to survive against two elders."
"If the high-level combat forces are confronting each other, then this city cannot be conquered in a short period of time."
Lin Chen watched coldly. According to the battlefield experience of the Blue Water Star, generally speaking, the outcome of a battle is determined by the high-level combat forces. As long as the high-level combat forces are not defeated or killed, they will only fall into an endless meat grinder.
Lin Chen slapped the dragon's head, and the [Pterosaur] continued to fly towards the holy city.
He has already understood the situation on the battlefield, and the key is to reach the holy city as soon as possible.
"The Holy City must have run into trouble. Apart from ordinary soldiers and masters of my level, no real elders have come to support us."
"Only the commander of the garrison corps is holding on here."
This is definitely abnormal, a sharp light flashed in Lin Chen's eyes.
Chapter 160: Entering the Holy City
"We have finally arrived at the Holy City!" Lin Chen rode on the [Pterosaur] and looked into the distance at the majestic city with tall walls that stretched for dozens of miles.
"It's worthy of being a holy city. It's incredible." Lin Chen sighed sincerely.
In his previous life, Lin Chen had seen cities with a population of tens of millions.
In this life, Lin Chen has also seen the city floating in the sky.
The former is the power of science and technology, and the latter is the achievement of high-level powerful people on the Blue Water Star.
For the Black Mist World, with its scarce supplies and barely-there extraordinary inheritance, the Holy City is definitely a huge project.
The holy city is surrounded by a wall more than 20 meters high and a clear river that flows from the holy city to the gathering point.
This is the river of life for the entire Black Mist human race.
After hundreds of years of painstaking efforts by the Church of Hope, the Holy City, as the core area of the Black Mist human race, has a population of one million, which is almost comparable to the sum of San Lorenzo and many gathering points.
Lin Chen could even look at the farmlands surrounding the holy city. The protective light of the holy city was enough to extend to the vicinity of San Lorenzo. Within this range, the rivers were clear and the land was fertile.
Any black fog monster that steps into it will be suppressed. This is one of the reasons why Wuming Post City can survive the black fog monster army. The protective light of the holy city is absolutely indispensable.
Lin Chen rode the [Bipedal Pterosaur] and landed in an uninhabited place outside the holy city.
"Thank you for your hard work, bipedal pterosaur."
"come back!"
The flying ability of [Bipedal Pterosaur] allowed him to easily pass through the meat grinder-like battlefield and avoid the ambush of the Black Mist Elder.
He didn't think that Wuming Post City would let him go easily, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Lin Chen walked slowly along the official road. He was well prepared and found a large number of clothes of ordinary residents from the ruins of San Lorenzo.
"Quick! Quick!"
"The front line is still waiting for our support!"
A group of church soldiers were pushing a trailer and moving frantically, and it seemed that they were coming from the holy city.
Lin Chen decisively hid beside the road. Although he had changed his clothes, a young and handsome boy was wandering in the suburbs in a suspicious manner.
No matter how you look at it, there is a problem. Lin Chen believes that the information about the black-robed man - the human traitor - has already been transmitted back to the Holy City.
He didn't want to be arrested and tortured because of a misunderstanding.
Soon, hundreds of soldiers carrying supplies passed by where Lin Chen was hiding.
"has a problem!"
Lin Chen touched his chin and stuck his head out.
Lin Chen sighed: "These soldiers are too weak."
"For the battlefield on the front line, it is meaningless except for increasing consumables."
In Lin Chen's perception, no one except the captain has the ability to kill the [Hunting Deer] alone.
The rest of the companies could not even maintain their formation. Judging from their vitality, they seemed like ordinary people who had temporarily joined the army from the public, and were at most a little stronger.
It is a question whether they can defeat the [Spiky Rat] if three of them attack together.
"Where are those masters? It's not like the Holy City has no spare strength at all."
Lin Chen suppressed his doubts and looked at the majestic city gate in the distance.
A group of elite soldiers surrounded the city gate tightly, and everyone who entered had to be checked.
"Trouble!"
"How do I get in?"
Lin Chen walked around the holy city but couldn't find the gap.
Because of the war, there are elite soldiers patrolling every section of the city wall.
According to the intelligence Lin Chen had gathered, this was the most elite army unit in the Holy City - Hope.
The Legion of Hope is responsible for protecting the saints, the Church of Hope, and the Holy City. Its predecessor was the pioneering legion of Saint Nicholas, the Son of Hope, more than 200 years ago.
After the end of the pioneer war, it was renamed the Hope Legion. Even when the front line was so dangerous, the Hope Church did not transfer it away.
With Lin Chen's strength, they would kill him if he dared to force his way in.
"We can't just wait until the bipedal pterosaur cools down tomorrow and fly in on it!"
“That’s too arrogant.”
Lin Chen was quite helpless. He suddenly found that his stealth and camouflage skills were also very poor. He had to rely on the [Night Cloak] to make a living.
"There's no other way. I can only rely on charm."
---------
In the holy city, the bloody sun sets and night falls.
Thousands of farmers returned in small numbers. They were the providers of the holy city, providing precious food for this city of one million people.
Of course, these grains are only supplied to the Hope Corps, the top leaders of the Hope Church, and the wealthy...
There is only so much food. Let alone hope for a church, no doctrine will work. It is destined to be a luxury that only a few people can eat.
The law of the jungle is the underlying logic of countless worlds.
The Holy City has been around for 800 years, and class stratification has obviously reached a limit. We just hope that the Church and the Black Mist can still put pressure on these masters and not restrict the upper class too much.
However, no matter how panicked they were, even if even San Lorenzo fell, the masters must not miss out on their enjoyment.
Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
"hurry up!"
"You peasants, come back here!"
Every group of 2-3 soldiers drove the peasants back with whips.
If you walked a little slower, the soldiers would whip you and blood would flow from your body.
They are responsible for maintaining order. Now the black fog monsters outside are attacking fiercely and are about to reach the holy city.
The farmers naturally did not want to go out to farm. After all, with the black fog monster coming, it was unclear whether the holy city would be destroyed, but the farmers who farmed outside would definitely die.
Moreover, they work hard to grow crops, but the food tastes nothing like what they eat.
Therefore, the Lord of the Holy City specially sent soldiers to "protect" them.
We have to farm this land, it concerns the future of mankind. If we don't farm this land, millions of people in the city will starve to death.
Snapped!
A whip hit Lin Chen hard.
"Are you going to die? You're walking so slowly!"
"And what are you looking at?"
Lin Chen was very annoyed. Damn it, he was clearly walking honestly, neither fast nor slow. This was the best behavior pattern he had obtained after careful observation.
By [obeying orders], Lin Chen successfully mixed into the peasant group and replaced a boy who looked similar to him.
These soldiers just wanted to recruit people. Although everyone had to risk their lives to leave the city, the soldiers were clearly of higher status than the peasants.
People become evil for no reason at all.
Even if it is just a little bit of power, there must be hierarchy.
They just wanted to get pleasure by torturing honest people like Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was whipped several more times and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Damn it, when I fought the cult elder, I wasn't beaten like a grandson."
"Bullying the honest people, huh?"
While people around aren't paying attention.
Lin Chen and two soldiers fell behind, and Lin Chen exploded immediately.
His right hand grasped the throat of the soldier who tried to whip him.
"What are you doing, untouchable!"
The two soldiers felt that the farmer in front of them was particularly strange. Where was the honest man before?
The soldier whose neck was being strangled had three parts of resentment, three parts of ferocity, and four parts of regret in his eyes.
"save..."
Lin Chen threw it into the field like garbage and directly cut his throat.
"Obey what you say!"
Another soldier was charged.
"From now on, I am your colleague. You must pay any price to protect me as I enter the city."
Lin Chen stripped off the dead soldier's clothes.
From now on, he is a soldier-Lin Chen, a farmer-Lin Chen is too miserable.
Lin Chen and another soldier began to drive away the other farmers.
Soon, with Lin Chen's hard work, all these farmers moved into the city.
Lin Chen sighed: "Finally got in!"
Every farmer had to be inspected and often severely beaten. Some even gave bribes to avoid being labeled as accomplices of the black-robed man.
As a soldier, Lin Chen did not need to be checked. After all, two people were in a group and they supervised each other, so it was unlikely that something would go wrong.
With the help of obedient soldiers, Lin Chen did nothing and even got some money...
In this way, Lin Chen successfully sneaked into the Holy City.
Chapter 161 The Foundation of the Church of Hope
Holy City, headquarters of the Church of Hope, the Pope's Palace.
20 knights led 200 elite soldiers, standing solemnly on both sides, guarding very strictly.
Although Lin Chen believed that there were super high-level demons lurking in the black fog world, he could not understand the black fog that covered the entire world at all, and the upper limit of the world was extremely high.
However, the Black Mist people’s extraordinary heritage is quite scarce.
In the Church of Hope, one can obtain the title of knight after breaking through the first level, and reaching the top of the first level is enough to rule a region.
The second level is the real big shot. This is the result of the Son of Hope’s preaching. In the era of the Son of Hope, anyone who is at the second level can be considered the strongest in the church.
Back then, Saint Nicolas was at the first level at the age of 10, and at the second level at the age of 15, he was the strongest in the world. Before his death, his strength had reached an unprecedented third level, and he even touched the threshold of the fourth level. He alone pushed the upper limit of the entire Black Mist race, and his talent was ridiculously high. If he hadn't died early, he would have been able to reach the fourth level.
