After waking up

The three bishops of the church had obviously put in a lot of effort, spending their holy power to pray non-stop, and even prayed for Mulan, thus giving him a very good night's sleep.

At dawn, when Mulan inspected the camp, many soldiers had regained their spirits and started training in the camp.

More than one steam tank had armored soldiers holding paint cans and painting something on it. One steam tank had more than a dozen simple wolf heads painted on the side, and the painting was still going on.

"Oh, they killed a lot. How many were there?"

Hearing someone ask this, the armored soldier who smoked smeared his cigarette and bit the butt of his cigarette while answering.

"Hey, there are about thirty of them. Many people behind us dragged the werewolves over and let our chariots crush them. It was a lot of fun. I can't count the exact number. I'm going to draw thirty wolf heads."

Mulan smiled.

"sharp!"

The armored man turned his head.

"Of course, uh, legion commander!"

Seeing that it was Mulan who was speaking, the armored soldier immediately put down the can and stood at attention to salute. Mulan solemnly returned the salute.

"Go ahead, soldier, draw not one of the thirty wolf heads."

"Yes, legion commander!"

Mullan took Patton and the guards away together. The armored soldiers suddenly became excited and shouted to the surroundings.

"Did you see that the legion commander recognized our record, thirty kills!"

"Hahahahaha"

Outside the camp, many soldiers boldly walked to the outside to check out the piled corpses. Some soldiers discovered that the werewolf corpses were missing, and they were all naked humans.

"What's going on? Where's the werewolf?"

"Oh my God, what they said is true. Werewolves are really transformed from humans and will change back after death! I thought those soldiers in black were joking!"

The soldiers in black specifically refer to the students of the Black Castle who wear black uniforms.

A soldier holding iron tongs full of remorse.

"Damn # , if I had known this, even if I was exhausted last night, I would still have to climb out and get two teeth before I go to sleep. It's fine now, there's no chance!"

"Hahahaha, you brat, you must have miscalculated. After I killed the last werewolf yesterday, I just pried it off with a gun. Look, I haven't changed back!"

A soldier took out his trophy, which was two terrifying fangs as long as his index fingers. The bloodshot eyes and stains had been cleaned up by him.

"give me one?"

"What a beautiful thought!"

Mulan was also nearby, smiling and pointing forward.

"There is no need to be impatient. Facing a country controlled by evil, we have plenty of opportunities to obtain suitable trophies!"

"Legion Commander!" "Legion Commander is here!"

"The legion commander is right!"

"Yes, I won't miss the opportunity next time."

"Me too!"

There are definitely not a few soldiers like them. Many of them show off their wolf fangs in the camp, and even more are regretful.

Even the students at Black Castle, many of whom had not thought of having their teeth removed, looked at the veterans with envy. Then some people went directly to the veterans to buy them. With enough money, some veterans actually gave up on them.

The look of this regiment has taken on a new look, and the atmosphere among all soldiers has become harmonious.

In the sky, several Dilga airships flew from behind and were already hovering high above the camp. These were also the follow-up troops of the advancing legion.

Supplies are also constantly being delivered from the border.

After two days of rest, the Special Advance Corps set out again. All the hundreds of wounded whose injuries were serious enough to hinder combat operations have been sent back to the rear, and the regiment has been fully replenished.

Dilga indeed only dispatched one legion, but the response speed of replenishing the loss of soldiers and logistical supplies was the fastest.

And the number of people is not fixed at 20,000. At least the number of steam tanks has been supplemented to a full 100 after the previous battles and the reliability of various data and performance have been tested.

There are also some carriages carrying large black wooden boxes that have been coming from behind in the past two days.

Loraint, a city in the north of Kingspea, is known as the Northern Pearl of Kingspea. It is the economic center of Kingspea and the transportation hub and transit station of the Kingdom of Kingspea. Even the towns and villages along the way are... Far more prosperous than other places.

However, as Dilga's special advance army advanced towards Loringte, the towns and villages they passed along the way were all silent. Not even a single resident was seen, let alone the defenders.

There are scouts ahead and airships high in the sky.

Dilga's army marched forward in an orderly manner. The tanks were divided into several squares, deployed in the front and rear areas and sides of the legion, and were followed by coordinated infantry.

Ahead is a relatively large town. The legion is divided into three groups, two groups going around the town from left to right, and one group passing through the town from the middle.

There was still no movement inside the town. The soldiers looked at everything in the town as they advanced.

Among the white houses on the edge of the town, the white walls of many buildings were covered with corpses. These corpses had stones hanging on their legs and their hands were tied and hung in the air.

On the white wall above the heads of these corpses, words such as "heretic", "coward", "blasphemer" and "spy" were written in red paint.

Later, the soldiers discovered that such corpses were not only found outside the city. Going inside the town, such hanged people could be seen everywhere in many conspicuous locations.

As for the locations of some sacrificial sites, there are certainly many people whose health has been extracted and died due to cult rituals.

A steam tank painted with thirty wolf heads moved slowly. Even the street slabs were cracked where the tracks passed. Two armored soldiers opened the top cover and poked their heads out, wiping their sweaty faces with towels. Like the surrounding collaborative infantrymen, they looked at the corpses around them with their mouths slightly open.

"Are all the normal Kingspear people dead?"

"No, I don't know."

There was a sudden "click" from the edge of the roof not far away. The two tank armor soldiers instantly retracted into the tank and closed the top with a "bang". The surrounding Dilga soldiers also immediately became vigilant.

Whoosh~

Two black shadows flashed past the Dilga soldiers. In just a few seconds, Handel and Upton had reached the location where the sound came from, which was a falling tile.

Handel took a deep breath through his nose, looked up at the roof of the building, and then gestured left and right to the soldiers who were quietly following around.

Suddenly, the soldiers spread out to the left and right and pointed their guns at the building. The main gun of the tank in the distance also slowly turned over amidst the sound of gears.

Handel nodded slightly to Upton, who jumped to the roof with a slight jump and found the half-open skylight on the roof. Handel punched the front door of the house directly.

"Boom~"

The door was directly blown to pieces, and the remaining parts fell inside.

"Ah - don't kill me, don't kill me -"

There was a scream in the room and a teenage boy was hiding behind the table.

"Ah~~go away, go away——"

There were also screams from the roof, the sound was obviously more childish, and then Upton jumped down with a little boy in his arms.

"We are Dilga's advancing army. We are here to punish the Life Cult and the Kingspia royal family who are complicit in the cult. We will not attack civilians who are not a threat."

The two children's struggles weakened.

"Dilga people?"

When they heard that it was Dilga's legion, their faces showed joy, and they looked at the soldiers around them, and then at the tanks with red light and steam in the distance.

"Really the Dilga people?" "They must be the Dilga people. Those guys don't have such steel monsters!"

"Can we go to Dilga?" "Can we eliminate those bad guys?"

"Are you here to protect us?"

The two children kept asking excitedly, making the surrounding soldiers look at each other in confusion. Facing the intruders, the two Kingspea children seemed to see a savior.

This incident reached Mullan's ears, and he just calmly ordered a safe passage to be opened for Kingspea, and then ordered to continue moving forward.

In the last few hours, hundreds of civilians from Kingspea, old and young, men and women, came out one after another from various hiding corners of the town. Many people's faces were full of joy, and all of them had disaster on their faces. Fortunately for the rest of their lives, some people even cried with joy, and some burst into tears.

When walking out of this town, Dilga's special advance army had some more Ginsbia people. Whenever they passed through some small towns or even villages, the common language with a strong Ginsbia dialect accent would come from these people. Shout out.

This Dilga army is here to destroy the cult and protect them.

Escape, flee to the direction of Dilga, where you can survive!

The advancing legion is getting closer and closer to Lorint, and the shadow of war hangs over this pearl of Kingspea.

Even though it was known that Dilga did not send many troops, and even though a hundred thousand of what Ginspea considered himself to be an elite army had gathered on Lolingte's defense line, the atmosphere in Lolingte City was extremely depressing.

There were not many people walking around on the streets during the day, let alone at night. The ones who walked the most were soldiers and fanatical believers of the Life Cult.

Even the ordinary believers of the Life God Religion stayed at home and did not dare to wander around, because they heard that werewolves could occasionally be seen running past on the streets, and the residents who were not believers did not dare to go out, and had to tremble to pretend to be believers.

A young man with a cloth bag in his hand ran quickly across a street, hid under the eaves and waited for a while. Then he immediately climbed up the pillar to the second floor, then threw the big bag over first, and then jumped over the narrow path above. He jumped to the corridor of the opposite building, then moved little by little against the clothes drying pole, flipped over the roof, jogged along the roof ridge for a while, then slipped off a diagonally supported log, and ran from the narrow alley to the end of a remote place. warehouse side window.

After entering the warehouse, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, and then whistled a few times in a low voice.

Soon there were other noises in the warehouse filled with goods, and people were poking their heads out of the goods one after another, many of them carrying guns.

There were quite a few people here, dozens in total, and they quickly sat in a circle around the young man.

"How's it going? What's the news?"

The young man said excitedly in a low voice as he took out the bread from his pocket and distributed it to everyone.

"There are more troops in the city. The number is exaggerated. The soldiers are also extremely nervous. Now I know the reason. Our previous judgment was wrong. It was not that we were going to hold a terrifying large-scale sacrifice, but that the Dilga Empire was asking us , no, declared war on the cults and bastard nobles of Kingspea!"

"Dilga Empire?"

"Really? They're coming?"

"How far is it?" "When will we arrive at Luolingte?"

These people grabbed the bread and didn't bother to eat it. They asked excitedly one by one, and the young people also answered quickly.

"It's coming soon, it's coming soon. I heard that we are almost reaching Luolingte. The defenders in all the towns in the north have all failed. Many people have fled back from the north, all with disabilities, and they are eager to find sacrifices to bless them." Well, many people were arrested just like that.”

The leader clenched his gun excitedly.

"Great! We must help the Dilga people win the battle of Lolingte and let Lolingte escape from this purgatory-like environment!"

"Yes, we must win!" "I've had enough of this kind of life!"

"Me too!"
