At the same time(?), inside the church’s “underground shelter”.
This shelter, which resembles an ancient ruin, is actually lit by electricity, and the electricity was originally enough to make the entire shelter translucent. But now during the war, in order to use the electricity elsewhere, the shelter is in "power saving mode"
"The electricity used for lighting has been transferred to other systems, which is why the interior of the shelter is so deep.
Four guards patrolled a deep corridor.
As they walked, a series of vibrations began to come from the ceiling above their heads, and the lighting in the corridor began to become unstable, flickering on and off.
"Is the battle not over yet?" One of the guards complained: "They are just French troops. With the strength of the church today, wouldn't it be as easy to deal with them as crushing ants on the ground? Why does it take so long? Why do we have to fight for so long?
It affects the normal operation of the shelter. I don’t know what the people above are thinking."
"The Pope naturally has his own ideas, so we don't need to worry about it," another guard replied.
Another soldier also said: "What are you complaining about, Feriz? Even within the Papal Knights, only a few people know about the existence of this underground shelter. You can safely serve as a guard in the shelter."
, it’s already good that we don’t have to fight those pagan lunatics outside.”
"Ha, I'm not afraid! They're just heretics, watch me kill them all!" The guard who complained at the beginning boasted: "The people above must be jealous of my talent, and they actually let me do this kind of thing."
Serve as a guard in a safe and risk-free place. If you let me participate in this city defense battle, maybe I can achieve a lot of military exploits!"
His companions began to pour cold water on him: "You're bragging again. You can't even defeat that clumsy Gruz, and you were beaten up by Fatty in training yesterday. How come you still want to make military achievements? Can you survive the battlefield?"
It’s already very good."
"Nonsense! I was just, well, not in good condition yesterday!" The guard named Feriz defended himself: "Tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow! When my abdominal pain gets better, I will definitely be able to defeat Gruz."
"
As they were talking, they happened to pass by a certain room and passed by two guards holding spears in front of the room.
The others were chatting and laughing and didn't care about anything, but Feriz took one more look at the two guards and suddenly stopped: "Wait, you------"
One of the two guards guarding the door of the room trembled slightly. The other replied in a deep voice: "Is there any problem, sir?"
"You...what are you two guarding in a place like this?" Feriz asked curiously: "Isn't it just a room for storing sundries?"
The other party paused for a moment: "No, sir. The room was changed to another use. It was an order given by the Pope himself. I'm sorry that I can't tell you the details."
"Really?" Feriz also paused, thinking about what other uses this room could be used for. Maybe it is true. But is it possible for the Pope to make such a strange decision during such a war-torn period?
"What are you doing, Feriz? Don't disturb the guards at work." The other three guards walking in front urged: "Follow up quickly, otherwise the patrol route will be disrupted."
"Hmm..." Ferry Capital didn't plan to let it go, but at this moment the ceiling shook violently again, and the lighting in the corridor flickered on and off, and suddenly it became extremely bright for a moment.
.Then he saw something strange about the two guards at the door.
"Wait a minute...what's going on with the armor you're wearing? It looks like it's been burnt." Felici noticed something strange and moved closer to the two guards to take a closer look.
When he saw the fatter one of the two guards wearing a burnt black armor, with his excessively fair thigh meat exposed under the armor, he suddenly exclaimed: "Wow, what's going on with you? This guy?"
Wouldn't it be better to just put on the armor without wearing pants?"
"Huh, sorry, I was just half asleep when I was suddenly called on duty, just, just..." the fat guard replied hesitantly.
"Sleeping during the day? You were originally on night shift? Which branch are you from? I don't think I've ever seen you before?"
"I'm new, new here, from Captain Marcus's second branch..." the fat guard replied.
"Captain Marcus..." Feriz looked at the armor of the fat guard, and with the help of the dim light in the corridor, he observed the carvings on the chest of the armor: "Okay. It is indeed ---
---"
Halfway through pretending to be stupid, he suddenly pulled out his long sword and put it against the fat guard's neck: "Who are you kidding!? This is obviously the equipment of the third branch! The scratches on the breastplate are from my actual battle with Gruz yesterday.
It was left behind. I know the sword I gave him best!"
"Uh, uh!" The other party panicked.
"Who are you?! Why are you wearing Gruz's armor? What did you do to him?!" Feriz shouted, and several other guards also drew their weapons alertly.
"...Reno." The fat doorman replied in a low voice.
"Your name is Renault? I don't think I've ever heard of a newcomer named Renault?"
"No." The fat doorman replied: "His name is Renault."
"Roar!!------" Before the guards could react, a male lion had already fallen from the sky, crushed one of the guards with a slap, and turned the man into ashes the moment he crushed the guard.
!
"What?!" Feriz exclaimed and was about to press the sword blade against the fat guard's neck to threaten the man, but he received a heavy kick in the abdomen and was kicked backwards. Not only was he unable to
He put the sword blade against the fat guard's neck and flew towards the lion!
The platinum lion had just killed the three guards in front of him one by one, when the last guard flew towards him. He was delighted to see it and hit his opponent with a backhand shot against the wall! The man named Feriz
The unlucky guy received a heavy slap from the Platinum Lion on the chest. He was already vomiting blood when he hit the wall. Before he could make the next move, the Platinum Lion's palm had already pressed down on his face violently.
Electricity instantly coursed through his body, and the guard turned into ashes within seconds, leaving only a set of burnt-black metal armor that was smoking and falling down!
"Again, another innocent person was killed..." Elaine sighed in a low voice.
"It's not our fault." Goff had just kicked his opponent away and saved Elaine's life, and then he took his foot back. "The only fault is that they are too sharp. They can obviously pass by the god of death, but they still take the initiative.
court death."
"But he is a good, good guard, that Mr. Feriz." Elaine sighed: "He actually saw our disguise in this environment."
"There are always a few people with outstanding vision among the elites of the church." Goff replied. He himself was once an elite with outstanding vision in the Holy See Crusaders. He was just "unlucky" and was betrayed by the church.
"The blow just now was dangerous enough," Goff said again: "If I hadn't kicked that guy away in time, or if his sword-wielding skills were any better, his sword blade would have cut your throat. I was just
We planned to use their equipment to deceive others and hide from them for the time being. But now this method of trying to confuse people has gone too far. The guards seem not as stupid as they thought, and they can reveal our disguise in an instant. Are you sure that every time
Are you going to use this method to deceive yourself when you encounter an enemy? It is obviously easier and more effective to let Master Renault destroy the guards directly."
"I, I don't want to kill too many people." Elaine said awkwardly, subconsciously touching her neck: "Just try to avoid fighting as much as possible. If you can fool us..."
"That's not what your body says..." Goff looked at Elaine's trembling legs. The fat white man didn't wear pants, he was just wearing the metal armor on his body. When he was trembling
Naturally, the sound of metal colliding and rubbing cannot be covered up even if you want to.
"I, I'm fine..." Elaine replied.
He knew very well that in this world, he was just a human with a little bit of succubus blood, but still very ordinary.
This body is different from his original white bear body and does not have strong self-healing ability. If he is fatally injured, he will 100% die. In addition, he is in the Holy Land without the help of Master Merlin, and he cannot escape the moment before death.
This body escapes. In this case, if he dies in this world, he will never be able to return to the original world.
Therefore, no matter how much he boasted, his body was still very honest. Facing this immediate threat of death, it was subconsciously afraid and trembling.
Despite this, he still wants to show off his strength and still does not want to implicate innocent people. Elaine came to this different world nine hundred years later to help King Arthur find Queen Greenville. The ultimate goal is to let Greenville
The queen helped save Leoport. But Elaine felt bad about killing a large number of innocent people in order to save one person. Even though these "innocent" people were not good people, and they might threaten Elaine's life.
life.
Very contradictory.
"Understood." Gove sighed: "I know that even if I advise you to use a more reliable method to complete this matter, you will not listen. So if there is no other way, just do what you say. Situation
I will take responsibility to protect you when things get out of hand."
"Hug, sorry..." Elaine apologized.
"No, I promised to protect you. No matter how willful and unreasonable your request is, I will carry out what I decide to do. In short, leave everything to me." Goff patted Elaine on the shoulder: "Speaking of which
How long do we have to go around to see Joan of Arc? I still hope Lord Renault can take us around all the guards and avoid conflicts to the greatest extent------"
"Ouch!" The Holy Spirit Platinum Lion roared, appearing very dissatisfied. He did have a way to sense the enemies around him, but his ability to sense was also limited by distance and was not omnipotent. The series of unreasonable requests made by these two humans only added to his confusion.
, it just made it more difficult for him to act, so he was quite angry.
"Hug, sorry..." Elaine apologized to the Platinum Lion again.
The big lion shook his head dissatisfied, led the two humans towards the end of the corridor, and calculated the next route.
Rumble, rumble, rumble------! The entire underground shelter also shook violently at this time, as if something in the underground shelter had awakened.
...No, it was the shelter itself that woke up! Elaine felt a downward pressure, and she knew that it was the acceleration of gravity caused by the ground moving upward, just like rising up in an elevator.
Is this shelter entirely "alive" and is it carrying everyone in it, moving upward?! (To be continued)
