But the expected final battle did not happen.

One person walked up to the samurai and pressed the hilt of her sword.

All backed up.His voice was not high, but clear and powerful. Alessia noticed that the other party was one of the group who was still in a well-organized order. He wore the commander's emblem on his arm armor, and the Divine Punishment Army was coming.

She turned her head and a group of tall warriors came out from the north gate not far away. They were wearing bright armor, reflecting a silver luster under the influence of the rain, with a red cloak behind them, and their weapons in their hands were different.

Some hold shields and swords, while others hold sickles or iron axes.

After crossing the suspension bridge, they did not reorganize the team, but scattered and faced the evil beast that was rushing towards them.

What kind of tactic is this? It's simply nonsense!

Facing a mixed evil beast whose strength and speed are far greater than that of humans, only by maintaining the formation and gathering everyone's strength to fight can they win. Is their current situation arguing that they want to fight alone?

Moreover, let the Divine Punishment Army fight alone, and watch by yourself?

We have to support them!

No, the man shook his head and his face was a little gloomy. We just looked at it. If we rashly went up, it would only drag them down.

drag?

Alessia glared at the other party in anger. Could it be that she had read it wrong? This person is just a greedy person who is afraid of death?

She held the hilt of the sword tightly, ready to bypass him and join the battle. Although she was confused about the future of the New Holy City, facing the enemy at this moment, all she could do was to die in the battlefield.

Before taking two steps, the female warrior saw an incredible scene.

A flying alien swooped down from the sky. Its appearance was as terrifying as a hell messenger, with huge wings covered with gray feathers, and could reach twelve feet when fully opened.

The head is like a bird, but it has a pair of sheep's horns, and the barbs on both claws are enough to cut into the samurai's breastplate.

Falling vertically from high altitude is their usual attack method, which is concealed and extremely difficult to defend against.

Even if you hold a heavy shield with both hands, it will be knocked down by it. The huge impact force will shatter the bones of the shield's arm and the chest cavity will be flattened, which will be almost a situation of death without death.

The only way to deal with it is to roll out when the alien is about to pounce on the ground, so that it is possible to avoid this dangerous attack.

But the Divine Punishment Army did not dodge. A silver-armored warrior took a pose to face the enemy head-on. At the moment when the alien pounced on him, he stretched out his hands and pressed his palm against the opponent's claw pad. The impact was so strong that he made a sound like a thunderous sound of the snow-ray bucket.

A cloud of mist rose from him and the monster, and the armor made a creaking twist.

His right foot was bent, his left foot was straight, and his body stretched into a straight line pointing to the sky. The alien species could not crush him for a moment.

Another warrior aimed at the stalemate flying alien and threw a short javelin. The speed was so fast that Ereshia only saw a flash of silver light passing by, and the javelin accurately penetrated the monster's head, smashing it to pieces.

The silver-armored warrior threw the alien corpse still twitching on the ground. His arm was bent abnormally. It was obvious that the attack just now was not unharmed, and the bones of his arm had been broken.

But he pulled out the axe from his waist as if nothing had happened and killed other evil beasts.

Aleshia could not believe her eyes by relying solely on human power to fight against these monsters. Hundreds of Divine Punishment Warriors rushed into the swarm of evil beasts. The red cloak was like a torrent of blood, blocking the enemy's progress.

She now understands what the leader said about drag. These warriors have the ability to fight ten. Each of them has the power, agility and reaction speed that is comparable to that of a mixed evil beast, or even stronger.

Ordinary evil beasts had almost no power to fight back in front of them.

It's so awesome!Aleshia felt a sincere joy. With these brave and powerful warriors, the Cathedral of Hermes could not fall.

Ah, by the way, I haven't asked about your name yet, my name is Aleshia Quinn, the judgement army captain.You seem to have known the combat capabilities of the Divine Punishment Army for a long time?

The other party glanced at her, his eyes as warm as ice rain. He did not report his name, but said in a deep voice: My brother is a Divine Punishment Army.

*******************

It seems that he won, Bishop Mayn held the lookout glass on the top floor of the cathedral.

This is the highest point of the New Holy City. Using the Fjord Maritime Businessmen's telescope, you can overlook most of the battlefield.

Let the catapult stop, the God-Punishment Army is about to attack the top of the city.

Isn’t victory an expected event?Another spoke.

He was wearing the same golden bishop's uniform as Mayn, but his voice was much older. The key was that the army of the four kingdoms was all over.

That's right, their border defense line was useless, and the last person said that she seemed the youngest among the three, about her early thirties, and the only woman among the three major bishops.

More than 5,000 well-equipped and well-trained standing troops and nearly 1,000 knights will take four to five years to replenish them immediately.Well... She moaned and smacked her lips. It was such a wonderful trick.

But in order to achieve this goal, we have also lost many judges, who are the backbone of the church. Mayn sighed. If this plan was not for the quickest achievement, I really didn't want to throw them into this purgatory.

The old man stroked his beard and said: We have no other choice. The wasteland beast has appeared, just like the records in the holy book, and there is not much time left.If we cannot unify the entire continent and concentrate our strength, we will only welcome destruction.

There is nothing wrong with destruction. The woman smiled frivolously, saying that humans are greedy, vicious, profit-oriented, and doing things that are more terrible than evil beasts under the banner of righteousness. Maybe the devils in hell are much kinder than us.

Heather!The old man was so angry that his beard shook. Your remarks were simply rebellious. Do you want to go against God’s will?

You don't need to worry about this, Lord Tefron, Heather shrugged, his face full of disapproval, I am the one in charge of the arbitration tribunal, not you.Besides, does God ask us to survive?How do you know that he won’t care more about the devil?

you……!

Enough!Tyfren, Heather!Mayn said unhappily, "To this end today, I will report the situation to the Pope later. You guys can do their own things."

……

After the two left, Mayn stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking behind the broken entrance of the northern Desperate Mountains, where the land of eternal winter was covered with ice and snow. Going westward, it was the wilderness.There is the beginning of it all.

He knew that Bishop Tavern was right. It was too rare for God to punish the warriors. It was necessary for those who were loyal to the Holy See and had strong willpower to transform. After nearly a hundred years of accumulation, the church has accumulated a team of less than a thousand people.

If you want to fight against evil devils, the number of people is far from enough.

But the entire north can only provide so many divine punishment troops. If you want more warriors, you have no choice but to unify the continent.

Of course, Bishop Heather said equally correctly, she served as the church arbitrator, with tens of thousands of evil men and witches who judged.

Whether it is the evildoers or the witches, the most brutal ones are not as cruel as they were deliberately staged today.

The higher the status in the church, the clearer it is to feel that God has no good or evil, nor good or evil.

How do you know that he won’t care more about the devil?

Thinking of Heather's words, Mayn couldn't help laughing out loud. I'm afraid that only she would be so angry that Lord Tyfren had nothing to say.

He thought, but God neither protects the world nor cares for the devil.

It only loves the winning side.
