The Pope would not believe that the Saint, the Son of God, would betray the God of Light without hesitation and join the Holy Dragon City camp.
Of course, in fact, Claire has always been in the Holy Dragon City camp, and there is no betrayal. She is a unit recruited by Jia Zhengjin, and is not a saint who truly belongs to this world.
One hundred thousand troops marched along the cement road in mighty force, and everyone felt heavy.
Although they believe that the light will win, their enemy is the God-killer Keen, or even the savior, and they have no choice.
Apart from the sound of footsteps along the way, the army of one hundred thousand light forces was very quiet and could not hear any conversation.
Arriving at the edge of the Warcraft Forest and seeing the fortress set up by Holy Dragon City in the distance, the Pope ordered the army to temporarily stop and wait.
After a while, the scout returned and brought surprising news: "The fortress is empty, there is not a single Holy Dragon City soldier!"
This made the Pope very confused, how could this happen?
The elders of the Church of Light and the leading generals of the Otto Empire were summoned to discuss whether it was a trap by Holy Dragon City.
Naturally, there was no result from the discussion. Finally, the general of the Otto Empire proposed to lead troops to investigate first and ask the Pope and other members of the light forces to wait for a while.
This is of course the best.
The Pope immediately ordered the camp to be set up where it was.
The Otto Empire general led the imperial cavalry on horseback and rushed into the fortress with an extremely nervous mood.
After checking around, we found that there was no enemy, not even pedestrians passing by.
There is nothing suspicious at all, it is definitely not a trap.
Are they all retreating to the Holy Dragon City, hoping to protect the city from the dangers of the Warcraft Forest?
The general of the Otto Empire immediately led the cavalry through the fortress and rushed along the cement road until they reached the Holy Dragon City.
"What's going on?" When I arrived at Holy Dragon City, I found that the city gate was wide open, and there was still no one inside.
"Report to the general, all the gates on all four sides of Holy Dragon City are open, and there is no movement inside!" The cavalry who went to conduct reconnaissance returned, "There is not a single monster around!"
"Why is this happening?" The general of the Otto Empire was puzzled, so he looked up at the floating city hanging in the sky, "Is it hiding up there?"
"Isn't it possible? With so many people in Holy Dragon City, it's impossible to cram them all into a small floating city." The cavalry captain next to him replied.
"You have to take a look to find out," the Otto Empire general jumped off his horse, "Bring my blue-winged bird over here!"
"General, don't take risks!" the cavalry captain hurriedly stopped, "Just shoot anyone and go. If you encounter the enemy, as the commander, you can't make any mistakes!"
The general thought for a while and agreed.
Although he felt that Holy Dragon City had a good relationship with the Otto Empire, he had come here several times to meet Lord Keen, and they were very friendly with each other.
But now it's different from the past, the two sides are in a war stage.
There's no guarantee that Lord Keen won't take action directly, as he simply can't resist it with his own strength.
So he randomly sent a cavalryman to reconnoiter the floating city in a blue-winged bird.
After a while, the cavalry returned: "Report to the general! There is no one in the city, and the entire Shenglong City is empty!"
Upon hearing the news, the general of the Otto Empire was stunned: "How could this happen? Where are the people? Where have all the people gone?"
"General, could it be that Shenglong City got the news and knew that our army was coming, and was afraid of escaping early?" the cavalry captain asked in a low voice.
"Stupid!" the general scolded with a frown, "That's the God Killer, Keen, the savior who defeated the Dragon of Darkness. How could he run away out of fear!"
"Then...maybe it's a trap?"
"Is there anything unusual in the city?" The general frowned, "Forget it, let's go in and do some reconnaissance."
"General, just in case..."
"Are you afraid of death?" The general was angry, "Now that you are here, you have no choice. Or are you ready to flee back in despair and tell His Majesty the Pope that because Holy Dragon City is empty and there is not an enemy in sight, we were
Are you so scared that you can only retreat and not even dare to enter the empty city?"
"This..." The cavalry all looked ashamed.
It would be a lie to say that they were not afraid, but when the general said this, everyone felt embarrassed.
"Follow me into the city for reconnaissance!" The general mounted his horse and rushed directly to the city gate.
The cavalry captain immediately led the Otto Empire cavalry and followed the general into the city.
At the same time, the airspace above Shenglong City.
"Lord Keen, do you want to launch an attack to destroy them?" Wolf King walked over and looked at the cavalry on the screen and asked.
"It's not necessary!" Jia Zhengjin shook his head, "Our purpose is to avoid disputes and wait for the arrival of the God of Light. If we fight with the forces below, unnecessary losses will be caused. At this stage, ensuring the safety of our people is the most important thing.
You also know that my wife Christina is a believer in the light. Once the war starts, death is inevitable. How will she face me after the war? The battle with the God of Light is already helpless. If there are more innocent souls of the light forces,
The relationship between us as husband and wife is even more difficult to ease!"
"Yes!" Wolf lowered his head, "Then we just watch like this?"
"Yes, just look at it like this!"
"But, if the enemy discovers us..."
"You are thinking too much!" Jia Zhengjin replied calmly, "The Nuwa uses optical stealth technology, which makes it difficult to be discovered. Even if it is really discovered, you can directly use the teleportation device to move to other places before the opponent attacks. To avoid
It's very simple to start a battle with them."
"It's easy to avoid fighting, but if the enemy destroys our city..."
"Don't worry! I don't want to fight, and the Pope must be the same way, just because the oracle has to come." Jia Zhengjin was relieved, "Since it is an empty city below, I believe they will not destroy it without authorization. First of all, my previous relationship with them
We are relatively harmonious, and we have some affection for each other. Secondly, when faced with the destruction of the empty city, they will also have to bear my anger. I believe that as long as they have some brains, they will not act impulsively, and they will definitely restrain their subordinates."
Sure enough, as Jia Zhengjin said, the generals of the Otto Empire led troops into the Holy Dragon City for reconnaissance, and restrained all the cavalry. During the reconnaissance period, they were not allowed to destroy any buildings or furniture.
As for valuable things, people had already prepared them when boarding the ship and took them with them!
Of course, even if they were not taken away, they would probably not dare to plunder in front of these cavalry. Otherwise, how could an ordinary person stop the God-Slayer when he was angry?
After searching the whole city, no one was found, and there were no traps. It was definitely an empty city.
With endless doubts, General Otto led his cavalry back on horseback and ran all the way to the Pope: "Report to His Majesty the Pope that the Holy Dragon City has been deserted and there is not a single living person in sight!"
"Where have they gone?" the Pope asked with a frown.
"No way of knowing!" the Otto Empire general replied, "What should we do next?"
"Could it be that Keen knew that our army was coming and retreated with the people of Holy Dragon City in advance?" The Pope lowered his head and muttered, "But... where can they retreat to? Moreover, how can so many people retreat in a short time?
Evacuate silently?"
"Could they all be hiding inside the Warcraft Forest?" An elder came over and said, "After all, there is a giant dragon as a backing..."
"There is also such a possibility!" The Pope nodded.
"Then let's..."
"No matter what, let's go to the city first!" the Pope ordered, "restrict everyone and do not destroy any plants or trees at will after entering the city!"
