nPreston.
n
n
nThe Sun was setting.
n
n
n
n
nThe Moon was beginning to show.
n
n
nThe whole of Preston seemed eerie under the alternation of the Sun and the Moon.
n
n
nAt the foot of the city, a group of Werewolves stared at the Holy Knights on the city wall with their green eyes.
n
n
nThe Holy Knights did not seem to have noticed them, and ignored them.
n
n
n
n
nAs Cardinal Monn said before he left work, they had to finish the task of repairing the city wall of Preston.
n
n
nNow they had no time to deal with the Werewolves.
n
n
nAt the foot of the city, the Werewolves looked at one another.
n
n
nThey thought that the Holy Knights would look like they were facing a formidable enemy when they saw them.
n
n
n
n
nBut they didn’t even look at them.
n
n
nThey were confused by this situation.
n
n
nOne of the Werewolves approached Zach for instructions, “Lord Zach, look, these Holy Knights don’t seem to care about us at all!”
n
n
nZach heard this and glanced at him quietly.
n
n
nThe city wall was only that high.
n
n
nHow could they not see?
n
n
n
n
nLooking at the Holy Knights, he was also a little annoyed.
n
n
nWhy did the Holy Knights suddenly look down on the Werewolves?
n
n
nHe frowned and ordered, “Go and challenge them.”
n
n
nThe Werewolf blinked and bowed his head.
n
n
nThen he walked towards Preston’s city gate.
n
n
nAs soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw Elendil standing quietly in front of the city gate.
n
n
nOf course, when they arrived, they had already seen the blazing divine sword that was especially dazzling under the dusk.
n
n
nBecause of this, even if the city gate was wide open, not a single Werewolf dared to take a step forward.
n
n
n
n
nThinking of Preston’s attack, this divine sword had brought back too many unpleaseant memories.
n
n
nAt the same time, they all knew that with this divine sword, it would be impossible for them to cross Preston’s city gate.
n
n
nHe looked at the divine sword fearfully.
n
n
nA trace of fear flashed in his eyes as he looked at the burning flames.
n
n
nHowever, he calmed himself down and shouted at the Holy Knights on the city walls, “Listen! We werewolves are going to reclaim Preston’s territory! Come out and die! !”
n
n
nThe Werewolf’s voice carried his own magical power.
n
n
nHis words spread throughout Preston.
n
n
nThe residents who had resumed their normal lives in the city were shocked.
n
n
nThey shouted, “The Werewolves are here! The Werewolves are here again!!”
n
n
nAt once, the commotion started.
n
n
nFortunately, the Kingdom’s soldiers were patrolling the city.
n
n
nSeeing this scene, they began to appease the residents. “Everyone, don’t panic! Since the Werewolves have already been beaten by us, it’s impossible for them to attack again! Please be rest assured!!”
n
n
nHearing the soldiers’ words, the residents finally calmed down.
n
n
n
n
nThey couldn’t help but still feel a little afraid.
n
n
nHowever, the soldiers were right.
n
n
nSince the Werewolves had already been beaten back, it proved that the Orthodox Church and the Kingdom had the strength.
n
n
nThis time, it would be impossible for them to attack easily again.
n
n
nHowever, they hadn’t expected it.
n
n
nIn fact, the Werewolves hadn’t been beaten back at all. Instead, it was the Werewolves who were afraid of the Devil they had summoned and hurriedly ran away.
n
n
nThis gave the Orthodox Church and the King a chance to reclaim Preston.
n
n
nOf course, the soldiers said this to appease the crowd, to keep them from panicking and created unnecessary turmoil.
n
n
nBut they were also confident that the Werewolves would not attack again.
n
n
nIt was not just because of the reinforcements from St. Servant.
n
n
nThe main reason was because of the powerful and admirable Cardinal Monn from Orthodox Church.
n
n
nThis was the source of their confidence.
n
n
nOn the walls of Preston, the Holy Knights who were repairing the walls heard the Werewolves.
n
n
nThey finally had a reaction.
n
n
nThey looked up and quietly looked at the Werewolves.
n
n
nThe Werewolves below saw this and were delighted.
n
n
nThey thought that the Holy Knights were finally going to fight.
n
n
nThe Werewolves’ thoughts were very simple.
n
n
nSince they had no way to rush in, why not let the people of Preston come out by themselves?
n
n
nThey were ready to call for a battle, to get a General from Preston to come out and fight with the Werewolves in front of the gate.
n
n
nOf course, this was only a plan in their minds.
n
n
nWhen the General was killed by them, it would definitely arouse the anger of the Holy Knights.
n
n
nWhen the time came, they would mock the Holy Knights, and they did not believe that this group of Holy Knights could stand their mockery.
n
n
nJust as they were indulging in their imagination.
n
n
nThe group of Holy Knights on the city wall only glanced at them quietly. In the end, they retreated again.
n
n
nThey continued to complete the task of repairing the city wall.
n
n
nThis situation made them stunned.
n
n
nOn the city wall, among the Holy Knights who were busy working, someone suddenly asked, “Commander Philip, are we really going to let this group of Werewolves be arrogant?”
n
n
nPhilip didn’t even raise his head when he heard that.
n
n
nHe continued to busy himself with his work.
n
n
nHe said faintly, “At night, the Werewolves have the help of the moonlight, so they have a natural advantage in fighting at night. If we go now and fight them, wouldn’t that be crazy?”
n
n
nAfter the Holy Knight who asked the question heard that, he scratched his head awkwardly.
n
n
nHe just felt that these Werewolves were really too arrogant.
n
n
nListening to their noisy voices, it made him a little annoyed.
n
n
nPhilip still didn’t raise his head.
n
n
nHe pressed a stone on the empty spot on the city wall.
n
n
nHe wiped the sweat off his head and said, “Don’t worry, no matter how noisy it is, it will only last one night.”
n
n
nWith that, Philip stood up.
n
n
nHe looked at the countless Werewolves in front of him.
n
n
nA cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly, “Tomorrow during day time will be the day of their death.”
n
n
n“Uh…”
n
n
nThe Holy Knight looked at his leader in a daze, and he had an indescribable feeling.
n
n
nWhy did he feel that his leader was being pretentious?
n
n
nMoreover, he seemed to be deliberately imitating Lord Cardinal Monn, which felt improper.
n
n
nAt the thought of this, the Holy Knight had a strange expression.
n
n
nHe could not help but ask, “Commander, are you really imitating Lord Cardinal Monn?”
n
n
nThis sentence made Philip, who felt that he was an influential person, stagger.
n
n
nDamn it! Mine was the temperament of an important man.
n
n
nPhilip was dissatisfied with this Holy Knight who did not know how to speak well.
n
n
nHe felt that he should arrange him to clean the toilet tomorrow.
n
n
nHowever, he had only started to behave in this manner after seeing the aura that Lord Cardinal Monn was exuding.
n
n
nIt was true to say that he had imitated Lord Cardinal Monn.
n
n
nBut how could he lose face after being directly pointed out by someone?
n
n
nHe glanced at the stunned Holy Knight indifferently and had decided his fate in his heart.
n
n
nTomorrow he will have a place in the toilet.
