Realm of Power

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

The bell rang loudly in the direction of the Sky Temple branch. The people from Porto Erault who were playing outside raised their heads in shock and saw a black shadow falling from the heights of the temple at high speed. On the way, it encountered the external decoration of the temple. It was not even decorated. They were all smashed into pieces and hit the wide square in front of the temple. Only at this moment did everyone see clearly what had fallen. The object turned out to be a middle-aged priest wearing a ceremonial robe. This middle-aged man who fell from a height had a steady face, but his whole body hit the hard ground. His face had been deformed, but it was vaguely The original appearance can still be seen, with a large amount of blood coming out of the mouth of the middle-aged priest. "Quick,...temple"

The middle-aged priest opened his mouth and raised his head to say something, but except for the blood bubbles coming out of his mouth, nothing could be said. "Oh my God, it's Priest Amway. He treated my child yesterday! He's a "Good man, what's going on?" A thin woman shouted, "It's really the Amway priest!" Many people came running around. , many of them know Priest Amway. As a resident doctor at the temple branch, many people have seen Priest Amway. He is a good man with superb medical skills. He also takes special care of the poor and has treated the poor many times. Reduction of medical expenses. Seeing such a good person suddenly fall from a height and fall like this, everyone immediately thought of Priest Amway should have made a mistake when he was ringing the bell. Such a good person should not have suffered such a fate. Just when everyone was feeling sorry for themselves, the door in front of the temple was suddenly opened from the inside, and a man wearing a quilt was The young man in the temple robes stained red with blood ran out, stumbling, shouting "Hurry up" as he ran. "There is a murderer in the temple, go and call the city guards!" Just as the young priest's voice fell, a cold light shot into his body from the open door. The young priest who escaped fell down in response, and followed the death of the corpse. Falling down, the hilt of a dagger that was still trembling slightly was revealed behind him. At the end of the hilt of the dagger was a black skull symbol.

"Killing! Someone is attacking the temple!"

There was chaos at the entrance of the temple. People who were playing on the square were running around in confusion. Amidst the shouts, the Port of Hérault seemed to be shaking slightly at this moment, "Go to the temple quickly!"

The chaos attracted a group of imperial soldiers who were patrolling nearby and quickly ran towards the temple. Although there were no guard soldiers outside the temple, today was the Incense Festival. In order to maintain the order of the festival, the Sixth Squadron of the Second Flag Regiment was in charge of the temple. The security of the area, and these imperial soldiers running towards the temple belong to the Sixth Squadron

The officer leading the team was called Assoud, a veteran who had experienced many wars. Then he stepped into the temple branch hall in front of him. The tragic scene inside made him take a breath of air. The floor of the prayer hall The corpses of the temple priests were lying in various places. Among them, there were seven or eight corpses stacked near the door. They were all piled up. Blood overflowed, dyeing everything around him red.

"Damn it! Didn't you say that there is no imperial team nearby? Why did it come so fast!"

At the other end of the hall, three masked men wearing black light armor were checking the bodies lying on the ground, seemingly looking for something. When they saw the imperial soldiers coming so quickly, one of them, who was obviously the leader, looked over. It was An Yin who frowned slightly on his covered face. Didn't it mean that there were no Imperial Guards guarding the temple branch? What's in front of you? The Council of Presbyterians specifically asked not to alarm the imperial government as much as possible. Everything was going smoothly, but who knew that there would be a priest hiding in the corpse and pretending to be dead. While everyone was looking for the target, he suddenly ran towards the bell tower. And just when everyone was chasing after them, there was actually There was a fish that slipped through the net and rushed out. Although it was killed by one of his subordinates with a dagger, it was obviously exposed. If you were quick enough, it was not impossible to evacuate, but the target was not found yet. How could you be willing to just evacuate like this? It was such a brief hesitation that caused the imperial soldiers to bump into each other.

After realizing that the imperial soldiers who rushed in were only a small group, Miyin looked grim, looked back from the imperial soldiers, raised his finger towards Assold, and said coldly to the subordinates behind him, "Go and kill them alone." , others continue to look for targets!”

"I'll do it." A strong man next to him, whose armor had been stained red with human blood, lifted up the heavy ax in his hand. There was still blood and minced meat on the heavy axe. At first glance, it looked like a heavy weapon that could easily break through armor.

"I have killed so many people, but this is the first time I have killed an emperor. Today I will see if the blood of the so-called First Army of the Mainland is also red." The strong man smiled ferociously, and stretched out his tongue to lick it with a ferocious expression. Take a look at the blood on the ax head

"Burchier, you self-righteous fool, if you hadn't checked carefully enough, how could that priest who pretended to be dead run away and still have the nerve to say such things now!" Another thin masked man said with disdain. He curled his lips, played with a dagger with cold light in his hand, and had a pair of inverted triangular eyes, looking at people like a poisonous snake. As assassins with outstanding personal strength, they did not regard the group of more than ten people in front of them. An imperial soldier is placed in front of you

"That's enough, a quick victory! We don't have much time!" He snorted with anger, "It's already this time, and you are still fighting among yourself! After all, this is the center of Port Hérault. Since it's already Exposed, a large number of imperial troops must be coming here, and it will be very troublesome once they are entangled."

"Since the Lord said so, let's compare it to see who kills more. The loser will take away the other person's reward. Do you dare to bet?" He spoke secretly, and the strong man smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth and mentioned With the heavy ax in his hand, he walked towards the imperial soldiers from the right.

"Just bet!" Another skinny assassin said angrily. The dagger in his hand turned into two, three, or four swords in the air like magic. Soldiers are like prey in their eyes

"Crossbow shooters prepare, others line up!"

Assold let out a low roar and his eyes were red. The Sky Temple is the state religion in the empire. So many temple priests were massacred in the Port Héro temple. If they let the other party escape, the empire would lose face. Where else to put it, the other party is a master, but his side is not a sheep to be slaughtered. His subordinates have also seen blood, and have participated in battles with thousands of troops, even when faced with the charge of a cavalry group. Fighting and cooperation have become their instinct. Following his order, five of the crossbow shooters quickly raised their crossbows and aimed forward. Four soldiers holding heavy shields rushed forward as forwards, and six The imperial heavy gunners guard the flanks of the heavy shield infantry. A simplified version of the Imperial Army Formation appears in front of An Yin. The opponent is so powerful that two people want to attack the Imperial Army Formation. Isn't this a joke! "Go to hell!" The strong man in heavy armor rushed over with murderous intent on his face, and hit the heavy shield in front with a powerful and heavy blow. The huge force directly hit the arm of the imperial soldier behind him. He was numb, but at the same time, three imperial spears stabbed fiercely with the sound of wind. The strong man looked very heavy, but he just dodged them all with a slight tilt of his body.

At this moment, two rays of cold light flashed past, and the strong man let out a muffled groan, and blood exploded on his shoulder. "Birch!" The strong man was injured, and the expression of An Yin behind him also changed. "Asshole, what is this!"

The strong man bit his painful teeth and hit the shield again with the heavy ax in his hand. With the force of the shock, his body stopped moving forward and retreated suddenly. The one who hit him was an imperial crossbow. As a perennial The special forces within the religious sect are themselves invisible to the outside world. They have insufficient understanding of the power of the imperial crossbow. If it is a normal bow and arrow, even if it is shot in his The armor didn't matter, but he happened to encounter the imperial crossbow, a lethal weapon in the army, and it was an imperial crossbowman equipped with heavy armor-piercing arrows. At such a distance, even heavy armored cavalry would be penetrated, let alone him. The heavy armor on his body was not as good as the defensive power of the heavy armored cavalry. There was no possibility of evasion. He was immediately shot through the shoulders and waist by two crossbows. "Ah"

Just as the strong man retreated, screams came from the other side. The thin shadow knight was directly hit by three imperial crossbows. A cloud of blood exploded behind him. Before his body could push away, Three imperial spears have quickly With lightning speed, he stabbed through his body at the same time and lifted his whole body up. Blood flowed down the barrel of the spear. As the spear was pulled out with blood, the body fell heavily to the ground, dead. Can't die anymore! "What's going on!"

This situation made An Yin, who was originally confident, feel a little stupid. The situation has changed a lot. The script shouldn't be like this!

Although these two subordinates are not very outstanding, one is good at frontal attacks and the other is good at assassination. Under normal circumstances, with the cooperation of the two, it is no problem to fight against five or six Templars, and a Templar The knight's combat power is equivalent to about seven or eight ordinary soldiers. There are only a dozen imperial soldiers in front of him. How could it become like this? Almost as soon as they touched, one died and the other was injured! The only possibility is that these dozen imperial soldiers are not ordinary soldiers, but real soldiers who have experienced great wars. Such soldiers are not terrible in their own combat power, but once they are united, they can often perform unimaginable feats. Combat power! "Sir, we have searched here but we haven't found the target!" A masked subordinate came in from the side door and happened to see the body lying on the ground. He said with an ugly expression.

"We've searched all over and there's no target? Bastard, we were fooled by that woman!" An Yin's face was so gloomy that he wanted to shed water. His eyes paused on the imperial soldier opposite, and his whole face turned black with anger. Well, if there wasn't something wrong with the intelligence, or it was a deliberate trap set up by that woman Putamia!

The Imperial Army has gone through countless battles in the south and north. Once the dozen or so soldiers in front of me are arrayed in formation, they may not be able to escape unless three or four of them are killed. After all, the characteristics of the assassins themselves It is not suitable for frontal attacks, and Birchier, who is specifically responsible for frontal attacks, was also injured. , the woman Putamia led her here to go on a killing spree, undoubtedly to offend the empire and get out of the current unfavorable situation. She must have killed so many Sky Temple priests this time. A major event that shook the entire empire. If you don’t leave now, are you really waiting to die?

"Sir, these emperors..." a subordinate said hesitantly

"What do you care about the emperor? Since Potamia is not here, why should we fight with the emperor! There was a hint of self-mockery on his face, and he looked at the subordinates who were surrounding him. "This is a trap, bring it with you. All our bodies must be evacuated immediately! "Several hidden knights walked towards the body of the skinny attacker on the ground and dragged the body away

"You can't escape. Surrender immediately and you can still survive! Asoud shouted loudly, but he only had a dozen subordinates, and he could only form an array to block the door. He could only watch helplessly as the opponent would The body was taken away, and soon all the attackers disappeared from his sight just as they came.

There were rumbling sounds from the direction outside the hall door, and a large number of imperial soldiers poured in.

Although it was already the fastest speed, when the imperial army arrived, they searched the entire temple. Except for the corpses of more than thirty temple priests, no trace of the attackers was found.

"Sir, my subordinates discovered a secret door in the kitchen in the basement of the temple. The murderer probably escaped from there!" An imperial officer reported to Varisien with a respectful expression.

"Were you the first to arrive here? What was the situation at that time?" Varisien looked at Assaud in front of him, his riding boots stepping on the solidified blood,

"We heard chaotic sounds, and then entered here..." Assold stood at attention and told what happened. "You said that the other party was searching for a certain target person, right?" Varisien looked slightly. "Narrow it into a thin line" Yes, what my subordinate heard is true So! "Fortunately, your heroic performance is worthy of your status as an imperial soldier. From today on, you will be promoted to squadron leader!" Varisien reached out and patted Assaud on the shoulder with a solemn expression. Scanning the tragic and bloody scene in the hall, I took a deep breath, it was so dangerous! Fortunately, today is the Incense Festival, and Palstina was not in the temple branch. Otherwise, she would have been accidentally killed by the attackers. As the governor of the empire, it would have been the end. As for these dead temple priests, they can go with peace of mind. Well, His Majesty the Emperor will avenge you! "My lord, the envoy of His Highness Pudamia wants to see you." An imperial official came in from outside and said to Varisien.

In a room of a high-rise building in Port Hérault, a Templar wearing a cross robe hurriedly opened the door of the room and reported to a graceful white figure standing in front of the window, "Your Highness, our The people have arrived at the location and have notified the Emperor's side. The Emperor has surrounded the Longlan Chamber of Commerce. I believe that at this moment, the other party must have hidden in the secret passage of the Longlan Chamber of Commerce."

"In that case, let's light a fire. In such a cold day, let them warm their bodies so that they can run faster, right?" Putamia picked up the tea cup in her hand and took a sip, her pretty face cold. Turning around in front of the window, the Emperor should have arrived at Luowu Mountain at this moment! I'm going back to China, and I don't know if it's possible to meet again!
