After waking up

Without the use of magic, the physical strength of normal extraordinary beings is limited, but the existence of the Silent Knights breaks the rules. They cannot use magic power themselves, but their physical explosive power far exceeds that of ordinary extraordinary beings.

Don't underestimate this slight difference. Misjudgment due to poor information allows the Silent Knight to become a terrifying assassin.

The magic pattern on Phoenix's sword dimmed, and he put it back into the sheath on his back. He held down the mink man's head with one hand to prevent him from falling off. He held his back with the other hand and gently laid him down on the ground. Only then did the man's head detach from his body, and a large amount of blood spurted out.

While the man was lying down, the mink velvet coat was already in Phoenix's hands.

"The Death Mage didn't arrange suitable guards. The upper echelons of the Ilhan Kingdom will be very angry."

Alvin also came over and looked at the body on the ground.

"The moment we actually take action, we must be prepared for everything. The nature of this war has changed. Mullan is right. It's time for them to wake up."

At the Shirkin City Hall, the last living corpse on the periphery fell under Renault's knife.

"Bang" "bang" "bang".

The sound of gunfire suddenly came, and support from the peripheral rebels who did not know the reason arrived, and they shot Renault the moment they saw him.

Renault directly blocked two bullets with his knife, and then moved quickly like a ghost, dodging on the surrounding buildings.

More and more rebels arrived, all opening fire on Reno.

"Stop—" "Don't stop—"

The Workers' Party and the rebels in the city hall had only been waiting for the situation before, and it was not that they had not observed the situation outside. Now when they saw Renault being attacked, they all rushed out.

Under everyone's loud shouting, the gunfire finally subsided, and Renault also jumped from the roof of a building.

However, a large number of rebels' guns were still subconsciously aimed at him, and some people even whispered among the crowd.

"Did you just see his movements?" "It was too fast to see clearly."

Renault was expressionless. He checked the two snake-shaped swords that had been hit by bullets. After confirming that there was no problem, he inserted the two swords into the scabbards behind his back. He walked out step by step, ignoring the moving muzzles around him.

The leaders of the Workers' Party were also extremely nervous at the moment. Although Renault rescued them, it was difficult for them to be calm because this incredibly powerful stranger had unknown intentions.

Polly was the first to step forward.

"I am Poli Basso, the leader of this uprising. Thank you for your help."

"Reno."

Renault simply said his name, stretched out his hand and shook Polly's hand.

"I know you must have questions, but someone will answer them later. Well, they are here."

As Renault's words fell, there seemed to be some commotion among the rebels outside. Ivan and Phoenix were walking from outside, and Renault quickly walked to Ivan.

"Put down the guns!"

Polly scolded the people around him, and then paid attention to Ivan and others like everyone else. Ivan walked up to the leader of the Workers' Party and simply gave a heart-grabbing salute.

"Hello, this is the first time we meet. We are not your enemies and have no intention of harming you. We are just watching you as observers."

"Your struggle allows us to see the flame of justice and makes us realize that you may help us in the future, so when you are in danger, we take decisive action."

"What's the meaning?"

"Why were those corpses resurrected just now? What do you want us to do?"

Someone asked, and Alvin shook his head.

"Your current strength is not able to help us. We just don't want the flame of justice to go out. This matter is not as simple as you think. If you don't mind, let's go in and talk. It's still quite cold here."

Who is Alvin? He was originally one of the most promising young priests in the church. He was a person who received the highest standards of bathing. He had to deal with various believers and naturally had good language skills.

After entering the city hall, what Ivan simply expressed was that it is impossible to reach an agreement with the kingdom through an uprising. Even if it is reached, it is not credible. Naiveness will ruin their efforts. What happened tonight is an omen. .

"You mean, the kingdom will send troops to fight, as well as wizards who can use magic, and even various monsters?"

"Is this possible?" "Don't they want Sirkin's project?"

"We can destroy the industrial area at any time!"

In the conference room, many workers' parties were filled with indignation and could not hide their fear.

Alvin shook his head.

"The Kingdom of Ilhan thinks that you can't make any waves. As long as they take it seriously, you will be completely destroyed. The truth may not be as easy as they think, but you are indeed unable to survive alone, if we don't intervene."

The conference room was now full of people, and the corridor outside was also full of people. Someone in the crowd asked.

"Then why do you want to intervene? We are fighting for our own survival, and why are you going against the kingdom?"

Ivan was silent for a few seconds and smiled.

"We see more things and our sights are farther, but in the final analysis, we are also trying to survive. I said that you may help us in the future. Even if there is no such future, I personally do not want you to fail."

"Maybe you can't trust us yet, but our people will still choose to help you. I believe you will realize that we are friends soon, when Mr. Moore arrives."

"teacher?"

"The teacher is coming?"

"Where is he?"

"He should be on the ship now, and our companions are escorting him here."

Alvin said and stood up.

"Cherish your achievements, cherish your own strength, and stop having naive illusions. Either rush out of the night by yourself, or light a fire. After tonight, be prepared to fight."

Ai Wen continued after a pause.

"Our people are concentrating here, and we will do our best to help you overcome your own fears. As long as you can overcome your fears, even the monsters in your eyes are not invincible. Please don't let us down."

After speaking, Ivan saluted into the conference room, and then left with Phoenix and Renault. They were here, making everyone nervous.

Doubt, confusion, doubt, belief.

No matter what the rebels think, choice is sometimes not an active act, because reality will force them to act.

On the third day after the rebels occupied the city hall, Ivan told them bad news.

Reinforcements from the Kingdom of Ilhan were arriving in the direction of Shirkin. There were regular troops from all directions, and even steam tanks and airships. Within the next day, the rebel army also confirmed this through its own reconnaissance. .

On the evening of the fifth day, leaflets fell from the sky. They were dropped by airships at high altitudes.

The content of the leaflet is very simple. All workers' parties will be sentenced to death, and ordinary workers who "participate in riots" will be innocent as long as they catch the workers' party, and will be given more favorable treatment than before.

On a rooftop, Phoenix grabbed the flyer and crushed it into pieces.

"The upper echelons of the Ilhan Kingdom are not all idiots. People's hearts are unpredictable. Even if they fail to achieve the expected goals, they can still sow seeds of suspicion."

Alvin shook his head and took a deep breath.

"Dealing with such a complicated matter is really energy-consuming. Mulan didn't know how much pressure he was on alone before. No wonder he has been suffering from insomnia."

"Lord Alvin, what should we do?"

Alvin tore up the flyer in his hand.

"I'm afraid Xilkin can't stand it. Many people here still have illusions, but we can't back down and at least try our best to keep some fire."

Alvin looked up at the sky.

“That thing above my head is kind of annoying.”

While Ivan was speaking, a raven had already flown to the side of the airship and landed in the cabin, and more and more crows had appeared in the surrounding air.

"Ah~ah~" "Ah~"

On the airship, someone accidentally saw a dark area on one side.

"what?"

"bird?"

"Oh no no no, they're coming!"

"Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta."

Someone opened fire on the airship, but the dense crowd of crows had already rushed towards the three airships above the city, and the raven messenger also turned into a human form at this moment, waving the whip of death on one of the airships.

"Boom~" "Boom~"

There was fire in the sky, and three airships staggered and fell in different directions.

At a sentry point outside Shirkin, a general held a telescope and watched the airship crash.

"It seems that there are indeed external forces interfering. Otherwise, how could the untouchables have the courage to rebel and start attacking immediately? If they are afraid, they will naturally know how to choose."

"yes!"

After the general issued the order, the Ilhan Kingdom Army, which was the first to arrive, directly launched an attack on the area occupied by the rebels.

"Woo~" "Woo~" "Woo~"

"Boom——" "Boom——"

The rebel army's own simple position could not withstand the roar of artillery fire. When the royal army rushed towards them, there were not many people who could fight back immediately.

"Coo, coo, coo, coo, coo."

Steam tanks kept approaching amidst the roar, and machine guns fired non-stop. The rebels were suppressed and unable to raise their heads.

Some royal troops even rushed into the fortifications and fought with some rebels. Due to training factors, even if the royal army was not elite compared to the armies of powerful countries, it was enough to deal with these workers with a bayonet.

For a time, the peripheral defense was in danger.

Dawn members disguised as rebels mobilized instantly and moved through the fortifications with rapid movement.

"Bang~" "Bang~" "Bang~"

Three Kingdoms soldiers were shot in the head, and then they killed the rest with cold weapons. Another Dawn member also stood up with a roar.

"We have to resist, otherwise we will just be killed——"

"Da da da da."

Machine guns fired, and the fire penetrated the body of the Royal Army and extended to the outside.

"With cannonballs—"

"Suppress these tanks—"

"Bang~" "Bang~"

The cannons high up in the city unleashed their power, and the shells fell on the path of the Royal Army's charge. The fire exploded a large amount of sand, and even the shells directly hit the steam tank, turning the huge steel monster into a fireball instantly.

The rebels regained some courage, raised their heads and fired continuously into the dust. Occasional screams proved that the royal troops who rushed nearby were hit.

"Don't save bullets, don't save bullets, we have plenty of ammunition!"

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

"boom--"

After all, the rebel army blocked the first wave of attacks and did not collapse at the first touch.
