Alien Knights

Chapter 618: Martyr City (22)

The dragon spit out dragon flames, turning a corner of Taylor City into a sea of ​​fire, and the light of the fire illuminated the sky, even if it was visible from a few kilometers away.

Looking at the bright "scenery" in the distant city, standing at the entrance of the camp of the Expeditionary Force Command, Cumberland touched the silver beard on his chin and asked the knight beside him: "Why is your majesty here?"

Alfonso removed the parasite limbs from his forehead and shook his head.

Cumberland pondered for a moment and said to himself: "Maybe there will be an answer soon."

At this time in Taylor City, a black robe, a throat bone with light blue light particles all over, stood at the top of the Great Sanctuary, looked at the dragon in the distance, and said softly: "Finally here."

Miles stared at the throat bone and whispered, "Your body is crumbling."

The throat bone raised his right hand and placed it in front of his eyes.

Thousands of tiny holes are now covered in the palm of the hand that was originally dry, and light blue light particles are ejected from each of the holes.

The throat bone stared at the hole, and each light blue light particle had the original appearance of the living beings. Listening carefully, you can still hear their screams of pain.

Soon, the palm of the right hand of the throat bone collapsed from between the fingers. The black flesh and bones seemed to have been weathered for thousands of years, slowly drifting into the air with the wind, and more and more light blue light particles escaped from the collapse. , Disappeared into the air.

"The burial of parasites allows me to imprison the soul of the dead in my body. However, how to use this power and how to preserve it is a big trouble for me."

The throat bone put down his right hand, letting the light blue light particles gush out from the body.

As the light blue light particles accelerated away from his body, the beginning of the collapse of the right hand of the throat bone gradually slowed down and finally stopped.

"My body is too fragile to save so many souls. Forcibly leaving them will only speed up my body's disappearance."

The right hand and right forearm of the throat bone were finally annihilated to ashes.

He patted the dust on his body and said quietly: "I need a new body, a new container, to store and use the power of the soul."

Miles frowned and said, "Where can I find such a body?"

The throat bone raised his head to look at the dragon in the distance, and slowly smiled at the corner of his mouth: "You don't need me to find him, he will find me by himself."

Watching the throat bone leave the roof of the Great Sanctuary, Myris casts his gaze into the distance, slowly spitting out a person's name, and his tone is full of helplessness and confusion.

"Todd Fischer..."

Evie, the silver-haired Valkyrie, rode a griffin, walked through the flames and smoke, and came to the dragon's head.

"I brought people!"

The dragon turned his head to look at the visitor, and Randall on the back of Griffon made him squint.

Stretching out the dragon's claws, sweeping the collapsed buildings on the ground, the dragon pointed to the empty space and said, "Come down, I have something to ask him."

Evie directed the Griffin to slowly fall to the ground and motioned for Randall to come forward.

Scarred and embarrassed, Randall didn't have the slightest fear in the face of tens of thousands of parasitic corpses, but when faced with the huge dragon that covered the sky, his legs were shaking involuntarily.

"Where is your companion?"

This deafening question made Randall tremble.

"Me, Barbara, Carroll, and Aldenan are still alive, but Bourville and Kellogg died..."

The dragon lowered its head, the dark golden dragon pupils stared at Randall, and asked: "I mean Karin Foreman."

Karin Foreman?

Randall was startled.

"She...she left to cover us and went to the back alone...I don't know she is now..."

Randall's incoherent speech caused the dragon to raise its head in dissatisfaction, and the latter, impatient, placed the dragon's claws on the former's head and began to read related memories.

After a while, the dragon lowered its claws.

Randall, who had read his memory, was sweating and fell to the ground unsteadily.

Evie walked to the dragon and asked softly, "Todd, do you know where she went?"

Todd turned his head towards the center of the city, and said in a deep voice, "The last place she appeared was the commercial district...but I can't contact her in the soul space."

Evie thought for a while and asked: "Her soul has not returned, which means she is not dead; but you can't contact her, which means...?"

"This means that behind this chaos, there is the existence I least want to see." Todd stared at the city burning in the fire, and said slowly: "This is also the reason why I came here."

Evie suggested: "Perhaps I can let the sisters spread out and search the city."

Todd shook his head.

"The black plague has spread throughout the city. Nearly a million residents in the city will soon become the kind of parasitic corpses you see. At this time, searching the city will only cause unnecessary casualties."

Evie said again: "On the way here, I noticed that the large crowds of corpses that gathered have all dispersed. This may mean that the people who control them have already left here. Maybe we can bit by bit. Clean up the city..."

Todd denied again: "The risk is too great."

Evie turned around and patted the griffon on the head. While calming the emotions of the mount, she asked, "Then what shall we do now?"

"Get out of here."

"Everyone?"

"Everyone."

Evie nodded, rolled over and rode on the Griffin.

Half an hour later, the expeditionary force headquarters outside Taylor City.

The nearly one hundred square meter camp was packed with commanders of all sizes. Cumberland and a group of staff officers stood in front of the sand table, discussing the situation in the city.

And the leaders of the various species of the Crusade Army gathered together separately and whispered about something.

After a while, Ackerman, the commander of the Holy Order Army, who was nominated by the species leaders, brought a pair of Snake Sisters to Cumberland's side and said, "Your Majesty is in the city."

Cumberland didn't lift his head either: "I know."

"I heard the Valkyrie say that there are immortal monsters everywhere in the city."

"I know."

"Should we not do something now?"

Cumberland moved his gaze away from the sand table: "Before the arrival of the new order, everyone will suspend the siege and stand by.",

Ackerman rolled his eyes helplessly: "You are the most official, you have the final say."

Just as the members of the Crusade Army expressed their dissatisfaction, a Valkyrie landed outside the gate of the camp.

Cumberland watched the Valkyrie walk in front of him, UU reading www.uukanshu.com did not wait for the other person to speak, and directly asked: "I guess, your Majesty wants us to go home?"

The Valkyrie was a little surprised, and then nodded and said: "The Dragon God ordered that everyone retreat."

Ackerman widened his eyes: "Retreat? Are you sure? We will be able to capture this city in just another half day."

Cumberland threw the branch on the sand table and said to Ackerman: "Facing the unknown, always being vigilant and fearful are the qualities that a good commander should have."

Then he said to everyone: "Everyone, since your majesty has made the decree, everyone is ready to pack, it's time to go home."

Alfonso, standing behind Cumberland, said softly: "The history of Tyrol City is over."

Cumberland walked to the door of the camp, looked at the capital of the Papal State in the distant fire, and listened to the crying and shouting in the air, and slowly said: "It's not just this city, it has continued for thousands of Years, the era of belonging to the church is also over."
