Chapter 425: Masai

The crackle of the flames echoed throughout the church.

The upper body of the tall statue of the God of Judgment had been smashed into pieces by Kamal, leaving only two broken feet, and rubble scattered all over the ground.

"It seems like we can't get any useful information here."

Shaking his head, Lin Ze turned around and left the hall. As soon as he stepped into the square, his expression suddenly changed.

"It moves pretty fast."

Outside the church, the roads in all directions have been tightly blocked. Countless heavily armed soldiers have surrounded the entire church. The soldiers raised their swords, the archers raised their bows, and their sharp blades and sharp arrows were faintly aimed at the church door.

Behind the densely packed soldiers, there were five or six men wearing finely crafted noble light armor. The leader was a slightly fat, middle-aged man with some sagging skin and two mustaches above his lips.

"Lord Viscount, all entrances and roads have been blocked!"

The clanging sound of metal armor scraping together sounded, and a sturdy and burly knight in silver armor quickly came to the man, knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.

"Is no one out of the church yet?" The middle-aged man, Viscount Massai, frowned and looked at the silent church door, and asked in a deep voice.

"No." the knight in shining armor replied, paused and then asked, "Lord Viscount, do you need me to send someone to investigate further?"

"No need, if something unexpected happens to Bishop Hansen and His Excellency Kamal, even sending a team of 100 people in will be of no avail. We'd better just wait and see what happens." Viscount Massai pondered for a few breaths and shook his head.

The nobles surrounding him all showed solemn expressions upon hearing this.

Just a moment ago, they suddenly received a call for help from church members, saying that heretics had invaded the church and started killing people. The Judgment Knights and Warlocks who were left behind were unable to resist and were in urgent need of support.

When they first heard the news, a group of nobles thought that the messenger had gone crazy, but then they received a report that Viscount Pierre was kidnapped by heretics near the separation wall and taken to the church, and that Priest Gilles died on the spot.

, and this confirmed the authenticity of the news.

The Church of the God of Judgment has a pivotal position in the Robert Kingdom, and its branches in major cities do the same, not only because of the respect for the God of Judgment, but also because each church branch possesses extremely powerful power.

It can even fight against a city's army.

The invading heretics were able to force the church to seek help from the nobles. One can imagine how powerful it was.

Therefore, this news immediately attracted the attention of Viscount Massai and other nobles. While they mobilized the army to prepare for support, they also sent people to inquire for further information. Then they learned that an hour ago, a large number of Judgment Knights and Warlocks suddenly left the city.

At this time, the nobles secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the church was left with a lack of strength, and the heretics took advantage of it.

So they no longer hesitated, but immediately led the army to quickly support the church. Finally, they had the opportunity to make the church owe them a favor, and of course they would not let it go.

However, after arriving at the church, the nobles were shocked to find that the entire church was completely silent and there was no movement at all.

Surprised and uncertain, Viscount Massai had no choice but to send people in to investigate first. The soldiers who came back turned pale and reported that the corpses on the square were all the church's adjudication knights and warlocks.

At this time, the nobles were stunned. They didn't know what to do for a while, so they had to mobilize the army to surround the church first, and the stalemate continued until now.

As time passed, the nobles behind Viscount Massai gradually became restless and commotion.

"Damn it, haven't all the heretics in the city been cleared away? Why are there still more here?" A noble couldn't help complaining.

"These damn sewer rats can't be killed no matter how hard they are killed!"

"Looking at the scene in the church, I'm afraid the heresy is very strong this time."

"Not necessarily. Aren't there still Bishop Hansen and His Excellency Kamal in the church?"

"Didn't you say that many Judgment Knights and Warlocks left the city? What were they doing?"

"Quiet!"

Viscount Massai suddenly shouted, interrupting the discussion of the nobles. Everyone looked at him and found that the latter had a solemn expression and his eyes were fixed on the church door. There was a thump in their hearts, following Viscount Massai's words.

Looking around, I saw a figure slowly appearing from behind the door.

"With so many people, it's really a grand welcome ceremony."

A calm voice sounded, Lin Ze stepped out of the door, looked around, and finally landed on the heavily guarded Viscount Massai. After a pause, he raised his eyebrows and said:

"Are you Masai?"

"Bold! He actually called you Lord Viscount"

Before Viscount Massai could speak, the knight in shining armor who was standing by glared angrily and shouted in annoyance. Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, his whole body spontaneously ignited out of thin air and turned into ashes and disappeared in an instant.

The crowd around him was startled, and immediately heard a clanging sound of metal colliding, and countless blades and arrows were instantly aimed at Lin Ze.

Unfortunately, the next second, they lost Lin Ze's figure from their sight. At the same time, they heard a muffled groan in their ears. Following the sound, they were shocked to find that the enemy had arrived behind the heavy guard at some point, and held Ma Sai with one hand.

The viscount lifted him up by his neck.

"stop!"

"Be bold!"

"Damn it! Put down the Viscount!"

Seeing this scene, the nobles and generals nearby changed their expressions and shouted angrily, but they did not dare to step forward rashly for fear that the other party would hurt Viscount Massai.

Lin Ze turned a blind eye to everything around him and just stared at Viscount Massai with a calm expression.

"It's good that you showed up here, it saved me the trouble of looking for you."

"You, what do you want to do? Where are Bishop Hansen and His Excellency Kamal?" Viscount Massai asked with a blushing face, his eyes filled with incredible shock.

You must know that he himself is also a Dou Qi user who has mastered Dou Qi, but after being choked by the man in front of him, he felt that his whole body's strength was like being locked, and his body could not exert any strength at all. How could he not be extremely horrified in his heart.

"Both of them are dead."

"How is that possible?"

Not only Viscount Massai, but also the nobles and generals surrounding him who heard these words had expressions of disbelief.

Lin Ze shrugged and had no intention of explaining. Suddenly, his ears twitched and he turned to look at the end of the street.

A few seconds later, everyone present also heard the short and heavy sound of horse hooves, approaching at great speed.

"It seems that actions can help you understand your current situation better than words." Lin Ze's eyes suddenly flashed and he murmured to himself in a low voice.

As he finished speaking, a large number of figures on horses suddenly rushed out from the corner of the street. They were the Judgment Knights and Warlocks who had just left the city in the morning.
