Chapter 712： The end

"How long shall we stay in this place?"

A blood wolf knight kicked the wall with great force, and the iron skin wrapped in the front of the boot rubbed a few sparks on the wall. At the moment when the setting sun was half blank, it was particularly shining in the shadow behind the wall. Beside him, a companion sighed: "Stop complaining, Eric. Who doesn't want to go back here, we should protect such a kid, which really insults the reputation of the knight. But what can be done, this is Earl Reckard. The command."

"Maybe it's just the order of the Lanza." The knight called Eric slapped the wall with a slap on the wall: "He has allowed us to do enough shameful things, let alone kidnapping the sister of the former earl not long ago. .Just the day before yesterday, we wanted us to go to the village to rob women. What's the difference between this and robbers?"

"So I have to be patient for the time being. I didn't hear that Lord Glenn brought an army here. I think the matter here will be resolved soon, right?" The knight smiled, "In this case, you can get back more quickly. Hmm. It's been a long time since I saw the boys at home."

"Me too, I don't know how Alyssa is now." Eric sighed, suddenly the corner of his eyes was stung by light. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to block the block, and through his fingers, his eyes fell on the road in front of the white castle. At the other end of the road, a group of men and horses were approaching the castle. It was the armor on the opposing soldier that reflected the light of the setting sun and pierced his eyes.

"What's the matter?" The companion next to him also noticed something strange and rushed to the city.

From their position, it was enough to see the streets below. There were about a hundred people in that team, about twenty knights rushing in the front, and soldiers on foot in the back. Whether a knight or an infantryman, the armor on his body is silver-infiltrated white iron armor. There is a cross on the chest of these armors. The flag erected by the infantry in the rear is exactly the cross pattern of the sword of the Church’s “Crusade” of military force.

"It's the church?" Eric said nervously, "Go and inform Mr. Lanza, we are in trouble."

After his companions went, Eric summoned the remaining blood wolf knights. As for the soldiers, these guys from the Giles family can only make up the number, usually scaring the civilians. If you really want to fight, these people are simply unreliable. At this moment they were also mobilized to the guard wall of the castle, and the hand holding the musket was shaking constantly.

The White Castle is not a military castle, although at the beginning of the construction, Auban’s ancestors built it according to the scale of the castle. Although the White Fort also has defensive facilities such as guard walls, arrow towers, sentry towers, and city gates, everything has shrunk greatly. After all, if the castle is built too rigorously, it will not be conducive to the image of being close to the people created by the previous jazz. But now, from Eric's point of view, the defense provided by this castle is very limited, and it is better than the courtyard.

He looked around him, less than ten blood wolf knights, and twenty or so pale-faced soldiers. Once the opponent really launches an offense, Eric can already predict the outcome.

The Crusaders stopped a hundred or so meters away from the castle. The avenue led directly to the castle's gate, and this distance was enough for the opponent to initiate a charge. Eric stepped forward and shouted: "What are you doing! This is the White Castle, the castle of the noble Earl Giles. I ask you to leave immediately!"

The crusaders suddenly separated from the two sides. Whether the knight or the infantry, they moved in unison when they moved, and Eric's heart sank straight down. There is no doubt that this army is well-trained, and even if its number is small, its combat effectiveness cannot be ignored. From the separated stream, Vera and Father Miró walked forward. When Vera stopped, the priest still stepped forward and said to the castle: "In view of the filthy reputation of Count Giles and his cruel atrocities. Such a person has the virtue of losing the lord, and people want to support one. New lord. As for Lord Giles, we want him to abdicate automatically. So at this moment, please open the gates of the city."

"Joke, can the church replace the authority of the empire? Lord Giles' title is conferred by the empire. What power does the church have to remove!" Eric said loudly.

Father Miró smiled slightly and said: "Of course the church cannot replace the empire to remove Lord Giles from the title. As I said just now, the church only speaks to the people. Even if it is the empire, I think the emperor I respect will obey the public opinion. Right?"

Vera raised her hand and made a gesture, and the soldiers at the rear sent a group of red fireworks to the sky.

Then there were fireworks in every corner of Ark Harbor one by one, and Eric watched the fireworks all over the city, his heart beating faster. He knew that something was going to happen, and it wouldn't be long before he heard footsteps from all directions. Eric looked down and looked at the streets connected to the castle, and the black crowd came like a tide. They are in order, but they show a breath of suffocation.

I don’t know who is taking the lead, so I listened to a neat shout, "The lord has no virtue, abdicate and give power!"

The waves were higher than the waves, and Eric on the city wall seemed to be in a sea of ​​sounds, with slogans sounding in all directions. Don't talk about the soldiers at this time, even the blood wolf knight panicked. Things like this are extremely unlikely to happen in other cities, but now, the army in Ark Harbor is controlled by Rola, and Giles has no soldiers to use, and there is no suppression.

Only relying on a foreign knight like Eric, and twenty or so young family members who have never killed anyone before, can't disperse the gathering of thousands of people in the city. Seeing so many people, Eric began to worry about whether the oak door covered with copper skin of the castle would be too thin An orange firework rose into the sky. At this moment, the sunset is gone and the night is gone. Come. Therefore, as long as you look at the night sky, you can clearly see the exploding flame. When they saw this flame, everyone was quiet, terribly neat. At this time, Father Milo's voice sounded again: "Everyone in the city, you must have heard the voice of the people. Even the emperor knows that public opinion cannot be violated, so knights, please open the city gate."

Eric gritted his teeth and yelled, "I can't do it!"

Father Milo gave a helpless smile and glanced back. Willick, who was in his armor, caught his horse belly, and immediately left the crusaders, galloping on the highway, the goal couldn't be more obvious.

"Attack! Attack!" Eric shouted.

But there was no movement behind him. He looked back. The soldiers on both sides of the city wall looked at me and I looked at you. No one dared to shoot. The knight shouted angrily, grabbed a musket and pointed it at Willick. As soon as his finger hit the trigger, his pupils couldn't help but shrink. Just in the Crusades, a group of soldiers launched two Thor artillery, and the muzzle was aimed at the city wall. There is no doubt that as long as he dares to shoot, he will be bombarded immediately!
