Release that Witch

66. Chapter 66 The Battle of Hermes (Part 1)

……

    The ice and the rain fluttered, and the bloody atmosphere in Holy City was diluted. Alicia was stationed in a big sword and gasped fiercely.

    She is not the first to participate in the Hermes line of defense, but she never thought that the new Holy City may also have a day of loss.

    The wall was completely finished.

    Alicia has never seen such a terrible monster. The huge worm-like mixed beast is pulled out from the ground, and the body is attached to the glacier cliff. The bone claws are embedded in the wall like barbs, step by step on the top of the wall, and its body. Not completely exposed to the ground.

    If it was just a huge body, but everyone did not expect it, the monster opened a big mouth, spit out a large pile of Evil Beast Hybrid from the mouth, the wall suddenly blasted.

    The well-organized team was attacked by Evil Beast, and Alicia’s Judgement Army advance camp was also split. She watched as one of her comrades was Evil Beast absorb, but could do nothing. The warm human blood mixes with the monster’s black blood and flows along the gap in the stone slab.

    With the horn of the retreat, the trebuchet placed in the Holy City was also started. The half-high granite stone descended from the sky, and there were still many people and kingdom troops in the city.

    Alicia only remember a giant stone hit the guard himself on the side of the Ducateau captain, he climbed up from the ground, see he has been together with the armor, was embedded in the cracked stone slab, the body as the same full of folds of parchment, intestines from the cracks in the abdomen, The blood under the steaming of his body integrates a puddle.

    If she is not jumping before the stone falls, I am afraid that the end will be the same as him, she thought.

    As for how he finally got out of the encirclement and retreated under the wall, Alicia could not remember clearly. There were screams and curses everywhere, everyone waving the weapon and slashing them, and they didn’t know if they were fighting Evil Beast or being killed with their companions.

    A team of more than 100 people, the Judgement Army, survived, including himself, only twelve people.

    “What to do next, Captain!”

    “Alicia Captain !”

    Alicia is so eager to come back, yes, according to the Judgement Army regulations, if Captain is killed in battle, Deputy Captain should take over Captain and lead the team to continue fighting.

    She clenched her lips until a sizzling smell filled her mouth. “Let’s go to the North Gate of Holy City. Evil Beast wants to break into the new Holy City and must pass there.”This order means that the residential area between the city wall and the inner city is handed over, but she has no choice but no place to be more important than the Church Center, Hermes Cathedral.

    And there is still a sentence she did not say, the glacier cliffs can not stop this group of monsters, and the role of themselves and the remaining eleven, can play?

    Perhaps today is the day of her dedication to heaven. May you be kind, she prays in her heart and shouts, “Judgement Army never gives up! We set off ! ”

    “Judgement Army never give up!”Other people shouted in unison.

    Twelve people lined up as a column to sprint all the way to the north gate. The killing sound of the city wall area gradually weakened and eventually disappeared into the wind and rain.

    Upon arriving at the North Gate, Alicia saw a lot of Judgement Army gathered in front of the suspension bridge. It seemed that everyone thought about the same thought, which made her feel a little better.

    However, in this crisis, the suspension bridge was put down. Alicia frowned and walked up to a handsome warrior in the red dress of the presiding judge. He clenched his fist and said: “Judge the grown-up, I am the fourth team of the first camp, Captain, Alicia Quinn!”

    “I am Tucker Thor, head of defense at the North Gate. It’s hard for you,” the man nodded. “We have set up a first aid facility behind the north gate. If you have a wounded person in your team, you can send it. ”

    “Adult, I don’t understand, why not raise the suspension bridge at this time? The Evil Beast on the wall may be swarming at any time, and we must ensure that the inner city is not lost. ”

    “Calm, Captain, I know that you and your team members are not afraid of sacrifice, but the unnecessary sacrifice is meaningless, and Church is far from the last moment,” he said, rubbing his hand on the forehead, “to the assembly,” If the chilling pill is used up, remember to ask the military officer.”

    When the presiding judge said this, Alicia found that she was freezing so badly that after she got out of the battlefield, her sweat and cold rain mixed together, almost freezing her body in the ice. The biting cold wind blew up and she couldn’t help but scream.

    Pulling out the sheepskin bag in the underwear pocket, shaking into the palm of his hand, but only a little thick liquid. It seems that she accidentally crushed the pill during the battle. She sighed and raised the head, but found a maroon-hot cold pill handed over to her.

    “First eat me,” Tucker Thor smiled at her. “I will be will then be will be alright.”

    Alicia was not polite. She took the ball and bit it and swallowed it. “There may be no chance that we will eat this thing again.”

    “Yeah, that’s pretty good,” Tucker nodded and agreed. “It’s too hard to eat.”

    Voice just fell, a strong fishy from the Alicia stomach, even the battlefield of the body everywhere, will not spread so disgusting taste, she felt that she ate not pills, but the regiment decay has been a long time of flesh and blood mixture, unbearable acid hemp constantly from the abdomen into the body, the chill suddenly fade away, Then the hot warm currents flow along the veins. The body temperature gradually recovered, and the already frozen sweat began to fall again. There was a burst of white air on her head, and the numb toes regained consciousness.

    “But not today,” she saw her eating the cold pills, and the presiding judge waved. “The God Punishment Army is coming from the cathedral, and Evil Beast can’t pass the North Gate.” Take your people, go to the assembly area, remember to check their pills. Don’t be like you, you don’t find it until you use it. ”

    God Punishment Army, the most elite force in the hands of Church! Alicia has heard it for a long time, but has never seen it before. BUT…Even if the God Punishment Army is as powerful as the rumors, it is human. Thanks to this body, how to train, and easy to easily defeat the large group Evil Beast Hybrid.

    But since the presiding judge said so, she had to leave the North Gate with eleven members and move closer to the gathering place in the west.

    There have been hundreds of Judgement Army retreating here, standing in the rain in twos and threes, letting rain flow over the cheeks, and some even sitting directly on the ground, a listless look. Only a small number of people are still lined up neatly, waiting for enemies that may appear at any time.

    If it was a few days ago, Alicia would stand up and yell at them, but now she is also in vain. In order to build this new Holy City, countless compatriots have been buried here. It can be said that the blood of the believers and the Judgement Army is condensed in every brick and tile here. The bishop often said that occupying Hermes is equivalent to having the Kingdom of God on the ground.

    Today, however, Kingdom of God seems to be falling into Devil’s minions.

    “Evil Beast is here!”Someone shouted, “Ready to meet the enemy!”

    Alicia lifted his spirits, raised a giant sword, stared at the shadow of the sky, and shouted: “For Hermes!”

    “–for the new Holy City!”
