Chapter 278: Decisive Battle (Part 2)
"Now is the time when Galle Castle is empty. We must send troops immediately and occupy there!" Romon and others who were in the meeting soon received the news that the demon army began to attack the castle. Romon's heart was moved. At this moment, the opportunity he had been looking forward to finally came!
So, at his command, the team quickly gathered, and some of them stayed, commanded by Lulun, Nick and others to protect the village, and the rest, led by Romon himself, left the city.
Shortly after Romon took his men away, a group of people wearing white priest robes came to the small mine village.
"Have Romon gone? He went to attack Galle Castle?" After receiving the news from Nick, Miss Alini, who led the team, raised her eyebrows and said no more, but led the priests out of the city.
Standing on a high slope and looking at the direction of Galle Castle, a black resentment that only a priest can see continues to rise from the castle, hovering over the castle for a long time, refusing to dissipate.
This is the resentment of people after death, because they die too miserably or have too much unwillingness to leave a dark aura where they die.
If this situation lasts for a long time, it will become the kind of ghost that appears in the mining area. Now the time is still short, so you can only see resentment. But it is this huge resentment that attracts these priests.
They came over to help Romon recover Galle Castle, but as a result, they had already taken the lead after one step later.
Miss Alini looked at the cloud of resentment like ink, looked for a while, then turned to the priests behind her and said, "It's time to need us. I heard that there are countless killed humans in Galle Castle. Even if some of them are absorbed by demons, some of their souls are not liberated because of resentment. Let us enter the castle with Lord Romon's team and use our strength to send them to where they should go."
As he said that, he took the priests to chase Romon.
Besides, Romon, he took the warriors all the way, and occasionally found several little demons who were left behind, all of whom were killed by them. When they arrived at Galle Castle, they found that the city gate was closed and several little demons were patrolling the city.
Since the here was captured by several big demons, the nearby little demons have surrendered to him one after another. Now, because the large army has rushed to Aps City, there are very few demons left here.
"Sir, the city gate is very strong. Unless you attack from above, you need to fight hard." said a newly promoted senior warrior.
Romon nodded: "You are right. You are led here. I will open the channels for you in the air, and then you will rush in."
As he said that, he whistled towards the sky, and a big eagle suddenly fell from the sky, and it was the lightning of the magic pet that would always be with him.
He rode lightning to the sky and looked down from a high place. The situation in the castle suddenly came into his eyes. He curled his lips gently, and then threw a fireball downwards.
Suddenly, the flames burst into flames, and the demon's screams plunged into his ears, but he was unmoved.
"It's too weak, there are only five hundred little demons, and there is only one big demon. With such strength, I can destroy it with the remaining fireball scroll alone." Romon thought.
Teams of knights and cavalry surrounded the city that was once owned by Baron Galle but has now been given to Romon. The gate was closed at this time, and a huge eagle kept hovering in the air, and Romon bombed the gate.
"Boom!" Another shot fell, and there was a loud bang, and dozens of little demons were killed. The door that had been broken and untouched during the demon attack was shaking. Although it had not exploded, it was already close.
Just as the cavalry was ecstatic, Vavik was about to issue an attack order.
The sun was instantly blocked by dark clouds, and it seemed that it had fallen into endless darkness in an instant.
However, the sudden dimming of this light will not affect Romon's actions. His eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people. Even in this kind of weather, he can still see everything in front of him clearly.
Romon changed color slightly and quickly targeted the big demon. He found that the big demon actually killed a group of small demons, causing the dark altar to restart again, and some small demons attacked.
The cavalry under the city began to feel a little uneasy, after all, this situation was very unfavorable.
"Go to die!" Riding on the body of lightning, Romon continued to attack the ground, with three fireball techniques inside, bombing the great demon. The great demon in the sacrifice could not avoid it, and screamed and drowned in the flames.
If the great demon chooses to fight, he may be able to escape or at least kill a group of soldiers, but now, he cannot leave the altar during sacrifice and becomes a target.
This is the easiest big demon that Romon killed.
After killing the great demon, the operation of the dark altar gradually stopped and the light shone again.
"Boom!" Continue bombing. In his space, there are many magic scrolls that have not been used up recently, so he never has to worry about not having enough attack spells, just attack as much as possible.
Moreover, as long as you can enter the castle with the lowest loss, what do you want? Do you still need to care about a little money? As long as there are people, there is everything!
However, the demons left behind were not completely unprepared. At this time, there were several respectful crossbows placed on the top of the city. They were used by Galle soldiers in the past for air defense. As a result, they are now used by the little demons.
Several heavy crossbows that can fire crossbow arrows were aimed at Romon at the same time and continued to attack. Perhaps because the demons had just learned how to fire, they were much worse than the real gunners. These fired crossbow arrows did not cause substantial damage to Romon, and were all avoided by Romon one by one.
But even if their attacks are not accurate, this kind of attack method may still cause a blind cat to hit a dead mouse. Romon naturally would not put himself in danger. He quickly threw out a lightning magic scroll, and with a fire magic scroll, blowing off the heavy crossbows one by one. The demon in charge of the heavy crossbow control was like the heavy crossbow of the small cannon, and soon turned into pieces.
There were still more than a dozen little demons who wanted to continue to resist, and Romon's eyes suddenly narrowed: "You all go back to hell!"
With this low and silence, a dazzling lightning shot towards the little demons on the ground. More than a dozen little demons were instantly swept by lightning, and their powerful power instantly turned into virtual powder.
When the wind blew, nothing was gone. When the other little demons saw it, they immediately shouted and fled in scattered. For a moment, the outer defense of the castle was completely lost.
"Lightning, go down." Romon gently patted Lightning's neck.
The clever lightning suddenly understood what the master meant. As soon as it spread its wings, it flew down from the air and fell steadily. Romon was lazy to care about the demons who had escaped all over the place, and came to the city gate. Several thunder magic scrolls exploded the door. At the same time, it cut off the rope of the suspension bridge outside, and the suspension bridge fell immediately.
"Master Baron!" the knight and the cavalry shouted, and at the same time urged the horse to board the suspension bridge and rushed in.
Along the way, the little demons who fled everywhere became the knights' ghosts under the sword and the soul under the sword. The human knights simply passed by without stopping, rushing in, while reaping the lives of the demons.
Where does the little devil have the usual majesty at this time?
"Sir!" At this time, Romon was riding on the lightning and flying low. He did not use spells anymore, but like those cavalrymen, he also drew out his own sword and kept reaping the lives of the demons.
When he finally jumped off the lightning, the human cavalry behind had already rushed into the castle, constantly searching for the remaining demons. The senior warrior Du Vanda, who was temporarily leading the infantry team, came to Romon's side and asked: "Sir! The castle is probably a bit too dirt. Please wait here."
What he mentioned refers to the scene after humans were massacred by demons and the strong evil spirits that were born.
The humans in this Galle Castle have been slaughtered by the demons, and there will definitely be no less corpses and bones. Romon is a baron at this time, so these warriors naturally don't want this lord to take risks. In their minds, Romon is their spiritual pillar. If this noble lord is injured by these evil spirits, it would be bad.
This senior warrior Du Vanda once had an intersection with Romon, but for Romon, it was just a slaughter of his own, but for Du Vanda, it was a big deal to save his family.
How could Romon not understand the care of these warriors? But he had never experienced anything before? He had seen all the bloodier and crueler scenes than this, how could he retreat at this time?
"It's okay, I'll go in with you." As he said, he slapped lightning and let it patrol the air to check the surroundings, while Romon walked towards the castle.
The senior warrior Du Fanda opened his mouth, but closed it tactfully, and followed closely with the horse.
The battle to clear out the demons in the castle was soon over. There were no many demons left in this city. Except for hundreds of little demons, there was not even a big demon in charge. It was indeed very empty in defense. Once the gate was broken, the human cavalry after entering would be like tigers going down the mountain, killing these small demons like sheep, without any resistance.
"Sir, the little demon in the city has been cleaned up." Du Fanda, who had just received this news, walked to Romon and said.
"Okay, let the soldiers rest, but you can't take it lightly. You have to send someone to patrol." Romon reminded him as he walked in.
"Sir, please rest assured, my subordinates have already made arrangements." Du Fanda smiled.
Romon looked back at him and suddenly asked, "Will your son leave now?"
"Yes, sir! My sons are all running away now, haha." When Du Fanda mentioned his beloved son, he immediately smiled.
During the month of Romon's guerrilla warfare, Du Fanda's family of three had been rescued in a small village.
Now, this man at the third level has already reached a complete level 4 level, so he has become the captain of the infantry. Although he may not be able to cross the level 5 threshold in his lifetime, his loyalty Romon has no doubts.
While Romon secretly sighed in his heart that time was passing by, he continued to walk into the castle. As they went deeper and deeper, the scene inside became more and more miserable and creepy.
Piles of white bones were scattered on the ground, and the walls were covered with blood. Some of the white bones were intact, but they were struggling or climbing. It was not difficult to see how much pain the owners of these white bones had suffered at the moment of death.
Even Romon couldn't help but squint his eyes and secretly regretted that miserable scene.
"Sir, don't go in here! Wait until we clean up, you're going in." Several soldiers walked out of a courtyard and said something in Du Fanda's ear. Du Fanda immediately stopped him.
"It's okay." The more they did, the more Romon wanted to go in and see. He pulled away the warrior in front of him and walked in with great strides.
As soon as he entered the yard, he smelled a pungent rotten smell and frowned secretly. Romon pushed open the luxurious door and walked in. As soon as he entered, the scene in front of him shocked him.
This is a very large room, with a total of more than 400 square meters. It is supposed to be the place where the banquet is held in the castle. At this moment, hundreds of "people" were nailed to the wall, and their flesh and blood were still there, but their skin and internal organs were gone. Looking at the bloody appearance, the skin from head to toe was completely peeled off. It is hard to see who is who, and their stomachs were cut open by sharp tools, and there is nothing inside. From their twisted expressions, it is not difficult to imagine that these people should have been peeled and dug their hearts alive.
In the middle of the hall, a tall table is made of several tables. On the top of the table, there are red pools of red internal organs and human skins, which are placed here.
"This... is this the banquet for the abyss nobles?" Romon looked up at everything in front of him, and he didn't even notice that the high-level warrior walked to him.
"Sir, someone is coming outside." Du Fanda looked at Romon with some concern and said.
Romon reluctantly said, "Who is it?"
"It's the priest of the Temple of the Goddess of Earth. They said that the castle is full of resentment and they need to purify it." Du Fanda replied.
Looking at this room, Romon did not doubt the priests' judgment at all, and nodded: "Let them come in."
"yes."
Soon, the temple priest led by Elini entered the castle. As we walked along the way, we would not feel very happy when we saw this scene like hell on earth.
Now, the work of these pastors is mainly about purification, so after Alini and others come in, they don’t talk nonsense and purify the dead along the way.
There were constantly transparent human figures, after their prayers, they rose from the blood on the bones or the walls, and then bowed to them and then walked towards the sky.
Alini was in a particularly heavy mood. Looking at the strong resentment in the castle, she had no other thoughts at this time, just hoping that her ability would be greater and could help more people.
"My child, as you wish..." Maybe it was accumulating strength, or it was a natural result. Just when this simple belief was remembered, a kind voice seemed to be sounding in her ears, and it seemed to be murmuring softly in a distant place.
In just a moment, Elini felt her body sinking, as if all the power generated after praying was squeezed towards her body. Then, her body lightened again, and all the pores seemed to open. The holy light from the divine was emitted from countless pores in an instant, dissipating towards the entire castle with her body as the center, and in a moment, it enveloped the entire venue.
Under the light, the evil aura quickly dissipated, and only the statue of the demon god on the dark altar remained unmoved. However, in addition, all areas were penetrated by holy light, countless transparent villains rose up, and then headed towards the direction of heaven... and Alini's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.
At the same time, Romon inside sensitively sensed this energy fluctuation, and then he couldn't help but reveal a hint of shock: "It's a level 5 priest, she was actually promoted at this time..."
When the sacred holy light passed by, the space of the Shennongjiao in Romon was silent for a moment, and it seemed that it did not exist.
When the holy light gradually disappeared, all the priests present bowed to Alini: "Sir Aline!"
The fifth-level priest, after one step, was already in the position of a quasi-bishop. At the sixth level, in most cases, he would always wear the bishop's hat. At the seventh level, unless it was a very special situation, it would definitely be.
When you reach the position of the bishop, you will no longer be a temple, but an area temple. This is a qualitative progress.
Romon also had spiritual vision. When he realized that the divine grace had purified the castle in a moment. Although the corpses were still there, the evil aura had been lost on it.
After a moment, the footsteps were heard, and Elini came in, her eyes swept across the hall, and also changed color slightly.
"Mr. Aline!" Romon said politely, this is to celebrate Aline's arrival at level 5 and becoming the prospective bishop.
"Master Baron!" This was Elini's celebration. After taking the castle, Romon was automatically promoted to Baron.
As the two smiled, Romon said, "Elini, I want to build a cemetery near the castle to bury these victims and the soldiers who died in the future, so that they can rest in peace."
"Don't worry, Romon, we have no choice but to do this."
"Also, the town under the city has been completely destroyed and it needs purification. Can I invite the glory of the goddess of earth to stay in this town?"
This is the church that invites the Goddess of Earth to take over the new baron.
Alini immediately showed a hint of joy: "Sir Baron, this is our honor."
There was no need for two people to do the following. They came to the balcony, under the tall castle, staring down, and there was a vast territory of hundreds of miles below.
From today on, Romon is the owner of this place.
Looking at the city from afar, there is a fierce war going on!
Chapter completed!
