The design of the city gate of the royal capital is very complicated. Not only does it require a dozen soldiers to push the winch to open it, but it is also very slow.

Even if someone cuts the emergency rope halfway, it will return to its original position in an instant.

Everything is designed to prevent someone from opening the city gate secretly. As long as the general guarding the city gate is loyal, there will be no problems.

As for forcing the city gate open, a city gate made entirely of pig iron will tell you what it means to be indestructible.

Parker was still chatting with Bishop Kazim and did not notice that several soldiers quietly approached him.

It was impossible for the church to completely control the city guards. Even slightly important positions were closely watched by the king.

But controlling some low-level soldiers is not difficult.

Bishop Kazim chatted with General Parker very calmly, occasionally showing a hint of anxiety.

However, the thought that there were devout believers outside the city waiting for him to perform his last prayers would not arouse suspicion.

Besides, the battle on the front line is going smoothly, and there are still 10,000 city guards guarding the royal capital, so how can there be any surprises?

It took a long time before the city gate was fully opened.

In fact, if someone goes out occasionally, you only need to open part of it.

But out of respect for the bishop, Parker did not stop the soldiers.

Since you're selling favors, let's sell them completely.

After seeing the city gate fully open, General Parker, who had been trying to get close, stopped talking nonsense at the right time.

He knew when enough was enough.

Bending slightly, General Parker said: "Your Excellency, I will not waste your time, please leave the city."

"Thank you very much." Bishop Kazim's voice was still so gentle.

"The Lord will remember your contribution. Now... I have something to tell you. I wonder if General Parker is interested in listening to my nonsense?"

Parker raised his head strangely. Isn't there something urgent?

He thought while making a gesture of listening.

"His Majesty the King will never show mercy to traitors.

What do you think he would think if he knew it was you who opened the city gate? "

General Parker's eyes widened, and he felt chills in his heart when he saw Bishop Kazim's smile.

Looking around again, I don't know when several soldiers approached with expressionless faces.

Of course, most soldiers still knew nothing and waited for orders honestly.

A soldier's keen intuition made him realize something was wrong, but he didn't want to admit it.

"Hey...Your Excellency, Bishop...what are you talking about?"

"Don't run away from this. This is your mission, General Parker.

Make the right decision! "

Bishop Kazim's voice remained the same, but Parker could no longer hear the gentle feeling.

It is true that if he shouts loudly now, the surrounding soldiers will definitely capture Bishop Kazim and his party.

But the traitors around him can also put him in danger.

The most helpless thing is that this kind of thing cannot be initiated by a bishop.

Will the church give itself a chance if this behemoth takes action?

The city gate has been opened. It's time to save it and see if the king will be merciful and forgive him.

Or simply accept your fate and take a gamble that the church will win.

Bishop Kazim just looked at him with a smile. Time is always on the side of the church. As long as Parker hesitates long enough, it will be the same as deciding to betray him.

Parker was caught in a decision. In the dark night, he could not see the wilderness beyond the range of the torch.

No one knows what is in the dark night.

In fact, it didn't take long for General Parker to sigh.

His loyalty to the king was evident, but now he had no choice.

Death is not something that happens alone.

General Parker drew out his gun and threw it on the ground to show his attitude.

"Wise choice, General Parker."

Bishop Kazim smiled. Even if Parker resisted, he had a plan to deal with it, but it would be better if he cooperated.

About a quarter of an hour later, chaotic footsteps came from outside the city.

The soldiers who were already feeling strange looked at Bishop Kazim and others in horror.

There was even an officer whose expression changed drastically, and he instinctively pulled out his pistol and shouted, "General Parker, what are you going to do?"

It was obvious that they thought Parker was the mastermind behind all this.

Bang bang! ! !

Several gunshots were fired, and the flames on the roof near the city gate flickered for a few times, and a few unlucky guys who reacted violently fell to the ground.

General Parker's face turned even more ugly, but he had to take the initiative to restrain his men: "Don't resist, it's important to save your life."

The soldiers were in chaos. The orders and responsibilities of their immediate superiors conflicted, and it would not be so easy to make a decision for a while.

Taking advantage of this moment, the church troops entering the city had begun to collect weapons and occupy the vicinity of the city gate.

Several priests in black robes walked quickly to Bishop Kazim.

"All the best, Kazim, you're the first one this time."

“It’s all for the Lord.”

Bishop Kazim looked enthusiastic. This would be the first step, and soon the Kingdom of the Lord would come to earth again.

"Yes, mortals have stolen the glory of the initiative, and now it is time to be judged."

General Parker said nothing. It was too late to regret at this time.

Fortunately, Bishop Kazim did not forget him and introduced him in time: "This is General Parker. He woke up in time and helped the Lord's army enter the city smoothly. I believe General Parker can help with the next few questions."

The black-robed priests didn't think much about it. They would accept believers who were willing to change their ways anyway.

Meanwhile, the sound of gunfire has attracted some people's attention.

Fortunately, there were only a few shots, so most people pretended not to hear them.

There are many nobles in the capital, and naturally there are more with guns.

It is not uncommon for some nobles to fire a few shots when they are in a mood.

The officer on duty of the city guards cursed and sent out a team of soldiers. As long as they found the approximate location of the shooting and registered it, it would be fine.

However, it was not a good mood to go on a mission at night.

"I don't know which young master did this bastard thing again, and we have to run around at night."

The leading officer cursed and asked about the general direction, and found that it was near the city gate.

"Is there any noble living there?"

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out, so he had to take a look.

As for whether something happened to the brothers guarding the city gate, he never thought about it.

There are hundreds of people, even a group of pigs, it is not so easy to be slaughtered.

Those with guns in their hands will not be able to resist a few gunshots.

When the patrol team of the city guards staggered to the place, they saw teams of people emerging from the darkness.

They were silent, carrying rifles and holding torches every ten steps.

The cross symbol of the church was very conspicuous, and some black-robed priests shuttled among them.

Even the low-ranking officers with little knowledge realized that something was wrong.

Before they could react, the other side also discovered them, and a bunch of guns were pointed at them, and no one dared to speak.
