Chapter 414 The surprise attack of the Holy See and the defeated defenders

At midnight, Mist led the 50,000 Imperial Crusade Army and arrived at the city gates quietly under the cover of the legendary magic - the Realm of Illusion.

"It seems that these wizards are really capable!" Joshua looked at the towering city wall in front of him and whispered to himself.

The last time they came, there was only a low wall of less than three meters in this small border town, but now what appeared in front of them was a solid wall of seven meters high.

It took the wizards only half a day to complete such a miracle with magic!

On the city wall, a bonfire was burning, and more than 1,500 guards could be vaguely seen stationed on the city wall. It seemed that no trace of them had been found yet.

The number of guards was much smaller than Joshua expected. However, considering that in the previous battle, the musketeers also suffered heavy casualties, most of them should be recovering from injuries and receiving treatment, plus those guarding the rest of the city and those stationed in the city.

Musketeers, the number is not much different.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Joshua's lips. Those wizards probably could not have imagined that after only ten hours, they would restore the strength of the imperial guards and launch a surprise attack overnight.

"Your Majesty Lucia, Lord Judge, do you want to launch an attack now?" Sirid asked respectfully.

The distance of seven hundred meters is already the limit. If they get closer, even if they are in the realm of illusion, they will be noticed that something is wrong!

As for the lava fire dragon, Sirid let it stay ten miles away, waiting for the moment when the war started to fly over, otherwise it would be sensed by the wizards.

The importance of kerosene is self-evident. It has played a great role in the wars against barbarians and dealing with strange demons in recent years, reducing a large number of casualties.

But the timing was so coincidental, just fifteen minutes before they arrived.

"These wizards must want to seize or destroy the empire's war weapons!" Sirid said with an indignant look.

Before they even shouted, this ray of fluorescence expanded rapidly and then exploded!

Boom, boom, deafening explosions resounded throughout the castle. The tall walls were shattered by the impact of the powerful explosion. The city gate was blown open, and rubble flew, forming a mist like mist all over the sky.

So weird that it’s terrifying!

"What on earth is going on?" Sirid was confused and really couldn't figure out the situation.

Because the wizards launched this counterattack, the first goal should be to regain the lost territory of the kingdom. This can be proved by the fact that the other two legions have been stranded in the kingdom before.

"It's kerosene!" Joshua's expression was very solemn. After searching the memories of some prisoners before, he had some doubts about this.

"My Lord Bishop, I surrender...I surrender! Please forgive me for my sins. It was those damn wizards who cast a spell on us and forced us to help them guard this town..."

"That's enough!" Joshua interrupted the man's defense and asked coldly. "Tell me, where are those wizards?"

"You mean they have escaped?" Joshua frowned slightly and said in surprise.

Lucia stretched out her right hand, and the boundless divine light gathered in the palm of her hand, contracted into a ball the size of a thumb, and then flew straight towards the towering city wall 700 meters away.

While everyone was wondering, a group of brave God's Punishment Knights captured the leaders of the guards.

Where are their enemies? Where are the wizards?

"Is there anything to the north?" Lucia asked doubtfully.

It was a middle-aged man in his thirties with a slightly thin body and fat cheeks. He knelt down on the ground with a look of fear, kowtowed repeatedly, and said in a trembling voice.

The legion they encountered was the only exception. It broke into the empire on its own initiative, and its target was the Mist Territory. It was probably for the kerosene.

Lucia shook her head, not agreeing with Sirid's guess.

The moment Lucia took action, the [Field - Realm of Illusion] was instantly broken. Thousands of divine punishment knights shouted "For the glory of the Lord!" and rushed into the city gate that was opened from the hole.

Scimitars and long swords cut down the guards in the city to the ground!

Perhaps the timing of their attack was too sudden and the enemies had not yet reacted, or perhaps the morale of such people had been shattered in the midday battle and they had not yet recovered. During this assault, they did not encounter any

Without any obstacles, the Holy See's crusade has already entered the city!

The whole city was 'quiet', except for the frightened shouts of the guards fleeing in all directions.

Their luck can only be described as terrible!

"Do you know which direction those wizards went?" Lucia suddenly asked.

It went so well... Joshua felt deeply uneasy. After entering the city, they found a torch placed on every street and many guards posted. However, they did not encounter any

Effective blocking!

No rows of musketry, no cannons, and no wizards!

This is not impossible. After all, the power of the empire and the Holy See is far beyond what these demon minions can match. The wizards have just experienced a defeat and brought many wounded soldiers with them. It is normal for them to flee.

As soon as this was said, the bishops present looked shocked, because the kingdom was to the west of them!

If you want to evacuate, you can't fly north anyway!

Dozens of patrolling guards on the city wall were knocked to the ground by the aftermath of the explosion, blood splattered everywhere, and screams and wails could be heard continuously...

The soldiers on the city wall could only see a bright firefly floating towards this side in the dim night. The speed was extremely fast, and the distance of 700 meters could be said to be reached in an instant!

"Yes... it's the north!" the middle-aged man replied hesitantly.

"They... they left fifteen minutes ago on a kind of flying house." The thin middle-aged man replied timidly.

Although kerosene is useful, it is not enough compared to the artillery that the wizards have.

"It should be that the Wizards' Council found other uses for kerosene." Lucia guessed.

In the last battle against the kingdom, the Griffin Knights led by Avedel brought a lot of kerosene, and most likely they were captured.

Those wizards must have discovered some secret after doing some research on this thing, so they were very eager to get it. They even thought that it could affect the outcome of the war to a certain extent, so they suddenly came forward at such a critical moment.

Go find kerosene...
