The Dark King
chapter-657

Looking at Ernorin and the paladins behind him, the chiefs of staff on both sides of the conference table suddenly became restless. They nervously retreated to the side of Saint Lorenz.

Saint Lorenz’s face was gloomy. He walked out of the crowd and pulled out his greatsword from the weapon rack beside him.

Ernorin looked down at Saint Lorenz and said, “Commander, prepare to surrender…”

Just as he said this, Saint Lorenz suddenly rushed toward him with a sword in his hand. His speed was as fast as a white dove, and the sword hummed in the air.

Ernorin’s expression changed. He hurriedly retreated and called the Holy Knights on his left and right to stop him.

With a few bangs, Saint Lorenz raised his hand and slapped out. The Holy Knights who were rushing toward him flew backward at an even faster speed and crashed into the Holy Knights behind him. They immediately fell to the ground.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ernorlin hurriedly turned around and fled.

Bang Bang Bang!

Seven or eight paladins were thrown out of the hall and smashed into the indoor bonsai outside the hall.

Saint Lorenza stood at the entrance of the hall with a sword in one hand and looked coldly at the numerous paladins outside. His silver hair fluttered in the wind and his aura completely covered the hundreds of light paladins.

Ernorlin looked at him in shock and anger. He did not expect that the already old Saint Lorenza would still have such a strong strength.

Bang! Bang!

In the cloister beside them, Richelieu and the beggar fought fiercely, tearing the cloister into pieces.

Richelieu heard the commotion beside him and looked out of the corner of his eyes. He immediately saw Saint Lorencia standing proudly at the entrance of the hall with a greatsword in hand. A large number of Holy Knights had fallen in front of him. At the same time, outside the building behind them.., faint sounds of fighting could be heard. It was as if the army outside had come back to surround them.

“We can’t drag this on any longer.”His gaze was slightly cold. He raised his hand to block the beggar’s pounce and leaped backward. He knew that the battle between the army led by Pulo and the Army of the military region would be difficult to determine the victor in a short while, however, the army of the military region could take the opportunity to send a portion of their troops to reinforce this place. The longer they dragged this on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. It might even lead to the failure of the mission.

He took a deep breath and suddenly exerted his strength, shooting toward the beggar’s figure like an arrow.

The beggar’s figure was shocked. He growled as bone spikes protruded from his arm, and he grabbed at Li Ceriu.

With a clang, the sword light in Li Ceriu’s hand flashed, and he pushed away the beggar’s arm. His body suddenly shook, and three Li Ceriu appeared in an instant, stabbing at him from three different directions.

The Beggar’s face was filled with shock as he hurriedly retreated out of the range of the sword light.

Richelieu took advantage of his victory to pursue. The sword light was like the wind and every move was fatal, forcing the beggar’s figure to retreat step by step.

“Die!”Richelieu shouted in a low voice. The veins on his arm bulged and the long sword suddenly slashed down.

The beggar’s figure raised his hand to block as before. However, the moment he touched the long sword, he felt that something was wrong. By the time he wanted to withdraw his hand, it was already too late. With a Kacha Sound, the sword light cut open the bone spur on his arm and followed the momentum, the sharp tip of the sword stabbed straight at his chest, leaving a huge bloody scar and fresh blood spurted out.

Richelieu raised his foot and kicked his stomach, chasing after him again.

At the entrance of the hall, Saint Lorenz was dealing with the Holy Knights who were pouncing on him while paying attention to the battle on the side. However, when he saw that Richelieu was actually suppressing the ghost dragon, he could not help but be shocked. One must know that.., this ghost dragon was a high-level limiter in the inner wall. Even in the inner wall, which was filled with experts, he was considered the number one expert. How could he lose to Richelieu at this moment?

Ernorin also saw the change in the situation. He immediately ordered the paladins to stop Saint Lorenz in case he rushed over to help.

Not long after, a miserable cry sounded. Richelieu rushed out from the broken corridor with a long sword covered in blood. He charged straight towards Saint Lorenz.

Saint Lorencia was shocked. He glanced at the ruins where Richelieu was rushing towards, but there was no movement inside. His heart sank immediately. He swung his sword to cut a paladin and shouted at Richelieu, “Are you really going to do this? !”

Richelieu’s sharp sword came straight at him in response.

Saint Lorencia’s face was full of anger. He returned the sword to block. Just as the sword touched Richelieu’s sword, he felt a huge force coming from it. It shook his thumb and thumb, and he almost let go of the sword.

Richelieu landed on the ground and turned his body. Like a ghost, he circled around Saint Lorenza’s back. He used his arm to lock Saint Lorenza’s throat and controlled his upper body. At the same time, his knee pressed against the spine on his back, with just a little force, his body could be broken.

“You lost. Stop,”Richelieu said in a low voice.

Saint Lorenza gritted his teeth and wanted to swing his sword to cut back. However, the arm holding the huge sword was numb. The huge sword, which was originally as light as nothing, was now incomparably heavy. He knew that the situation was over, and he was filled with grief and indignation, he said, “Aren’t you afraid of stirring up Chaos? If you want to rule our military region, have you asked the military of the inner wall region? Will they agree to it? !”

Richelieu was indifferent and said, “Pass down the order immediately. Tell your men to stop fighting and surrender. If you lose, don’t create more killings and sacrifices.”

Saint Lorenz was so angry that he laughed, “Killings? Sacrifices? Haven’t you created enough of these? Do you really think that you can control the thousands of iron-blooded soldiers of our military by controlling me? They will not surrender. They will never lower their heads like you! !”

Richelieu said coldly, “Then don’t blame me.”After saying that, he grabbed his shoulder and twisted it violently. With a crack, his arm was broken. Then, he dragged his body and turned to walk into the hall.

Ernorin led the other paladins and quickly entered the hall. They occupied all parts of the hall and killed all the servants who tried to resist, leaving only the chief of staff and a few honorary generals behind the conference table.

“Take off his clothes.”Richelieu suddenly pointed at an honorary general.

Ernorin immediately sent people to take him down and take off his coat.

“Get Someone to change into it. Immediately pass the order to stop the war and surrender!”Richelieu said coldly.

Ernorin came to his senses and could not help but look at Richelieu. He did not expect that he, who had always been kind, would actually think of such a strange method.

Saint Lorenz and the other chief of staff were shocked and angry when they heard this. Saint Lorenz said angrily, “Old Pope, you are too despicable!”

“You forced me to do this.”Richelieu looked at him coldly.

Soon, a Holy Knight put on the armor of an honorary general and ran out of the building. Not long after, the sounds of fighting outside gradually weakened.

Saint Lorenz heard the change and closed his eyes in pain. Although he could not see the battle outside, his hearing was very sensitive. As the sounds of fighting weakened, he also heard waves of cheers that became stronger and stronger, the content of the cheers was “Long live the Pope”. Obviously the Knights of the church had won.

The other chiefs of Staff had ugly expressions on their faces. They were angry as if they had eaten a coal ball. They knew that the hearts of the generals and soldiers who had stopped fighting outside were probably even more broken than them.

A carriage with the flag of the Cardinal of the Holy See was running at full speed on the street. The pedestrians on the street saw the flag on the carriage and were scared away. They didn’t dare to stop it. A moment later, the carriage came to the military headquarters. The wheels stopped. Dudian opened the door and got off. He looked up at the high wall of the courtyard. The coldness in his eyes faded.

“Young master, it seems very quiet inside.”Sergei who was the coachman jumped down and looked at dudian.

“Quiet is good news.”Dudian held Aisha’s hand and walked in big steps.

After entering the compound’s wall, there was a vast grassland plain. In front of the plain, there were a few rampart-like buildings scattered around. There were sentry towers, Arrow Towers, training grounds and camps.

After walking for a while, Dudian saw a large number of corpses and blood that dyed the plain red.

Sergei followed behind Dudian and nervously looked around. Although he was accompanied by Dudian, he was still a bit nervous. After all, this was the headquarters of the military region. He was imprisoned in the Thorn Flower Prison, he was arrested by the military. He had the same natural fear of the military as the others.
