Chapter 902: Restarting the War
In addition, there were rows of knights in silver armor lined up neatly, not far from the castle. They did not take action at this moment, they just stood there quietly, looking at the two men beside them. The red archbishop displayed his skills there, and his companions kept chanting.
The most eye-catching thing is not these two groups, but a group of black-robed monks on the left. Each one is extremely low-pitched, but gives people an unfathomable feeling. They do not say a word. The bright red cross exudes a strange atmosphere in the center of the crowd. light.
"Nima!"
Jiang Bai was really in trouble at this time.
He came to Markuz's house as a guest. Although this guy asked him a favor and he agreed to it, in theory he was considered a partner, but in fact the two people had a very ordinary relationship.
I didn't expect that I would be blocked in this old castle now.
Jiang Bai knew very well what kind of character Markuz was. He was a half-human, half-ghost old guy who had lived for four hundred years, the leader of the necromancers in the world, and a member of the Parliament.
Jiang Bai doesn't know much about the parliament, but Jiang Bai knows very well what kind of urinary person this necromancer is, and he also understands his relationship with the guys from the Holy Church outside.
Regardless of the fact that this is a new era, the decline of the Holy See is not as good as before, and secular forces have risen, but that is only a superficial phenomenon.
Who dares to say behind the scenes that the Holy See is in trouble?
Who dares to stop what they are going to do?
What's more, what they do is just to eliminate demons and defend the law. Markuz next to him is really not a good thing in the strict sense.
They were engaged in the business of digging graves and cultivating living people. In the West, if they were in China, people from the Holy See would not have to do anything. Jiang Bai would kill him.
When people come to your door, they are only doing harm to the people.
Originally, Jiang Bai would not be so depressed. The key is that he also understands the pissing behavior of the people outside. He stands with Markuz and is a guest in his castle. According to the rules of the Middle Ages, the whole family will be burned at the stake. Frame.
Even if he doesn't use it now, he can't even think about retreating safely.
As long as these fanatics see themselves, they are afraid that they will be classified as heretics.
In fact, the situation was exactly as Jiang Bai thought. When Jiang Bai stood on the top of the city, someone had already seen Jiang Bai: "Your Excellency, deputy chief judge, you see... Markuz is indeed there on the castle. , and there is actually another person beside him? He looks like an Eastern heretic?"
"No matter where the heretic is, as long as he is a heretic, we must not let him live to harm the world. This is our responsibility and obligation!"
The deputy presiding judge, who was hidden in a black robe, said solemnly.
If Jiang Bai heard this, he didn't know what he would think.
In fact, he had already had some thoughts, his eyes kept moving, and after a moment he stood next to Markuz and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, Congressman, we have a saying in the East that there is no such thing as a good feast, and it is indeed true! "
"I'm having a meal at your place, and your castle, which has not fallen for four hundred years, is already being attacked. Am I just unlucky, or is someone deliberately dragging me into this?"
When he said this, Jiang Bai's face looked ugly. No wonder he had such thoughts. It was just that what happened in front of him was too sudden and too coincidental.
Markuz has lived in this castle for so long, and no one has come to trouble him, which shows that this place is quite hidden and safe.
They have been fine for four hundred years. Just after he came in and stayed for a few hours, a large number of people had already arrived. There was no room for Jiang Bai to doubt this matter.
His face changed several times, and Markuz also heard the hidden meaning of Jiang Bai's words, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Jiang, I feel very sorry about this incident, but... you shouldn't think so, about this matter It was definitely not arranged by me!"
"Actually, I'm not that stupid!"
"There are at least a hundred knights of the Knights Templar outside, as well as a hundred priests of the Holy See, a hundred judges of the Inquisition, as well as two red archbishops, a deputy head of the Knights Templar, and A deputy presiding judge of the Inquisition!”
"I don't think I need to explain too much about my relationship with them. You should also understand! If you use them to plot against you, I will be the first to die!"
"And... to be honest, I don't have the ability to face the attacks of five masters who are equal to me."
"Their cultivation system inherently restrains me. It doesn't take much. A deputy presiding judge or a red archbishop can make me exhausted, let alone so many people?"
Speaking of this, Markuz's face showed some fluctuations. Looking at the crowd outside the castle, he felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle, with all kinds of mixed flavors in his heart.
Jiang Bai vaguely saw a trace of worry and fear from the depths of the other party's pupils.
This is definitely not common in such an old monster.
This made Jiang Bai believe the words of the guy in front of him seven or eight times.
What he said was reasonable. Even if he wanted to involve himself in their fight, he didn't have to risk his own life to be buried with him.
According to him, the opponent has five existences equivalent to heavenly status. With such existences, Markuz and Jiang Bai have no guarantee of victory.
The opponent has an absolute advantage. A shrewd person like Markuz would not do such a stupid thing even if he wanted to drag himself into trouble, because it would probably involve him.
"Sir, what should we do now?" An undead archmage next to Markuz asked Markuz in a panic.
He had not seen such a scene and such a lineup in front of him for many years.
"What should we do? What else can we do? How many years has it been since the Holy Vatican has done this? Fifty years or eighty years? Or longer? We have never seen their lineup since entering modern society!"
"What are they doing! Do they want to tear up the peace agreement and restart the war?"
"Sir, I think we should call for help immediately and issue a war warning to the Parliament, telling them that the Holy See is going to war against us!"
Not everyone was helpless at this time. Another undead archmage next to Marku stood up at this time and said in a deep voice, with a somewhat tough attitude.
It seems that he means to stand firm and wait for help.
The power of the Parliament is no weaker than that of the Holy See. Although it is suppressed by them, it is not completely powerless to fight back. In the dark Middle Ages, it was even able to compete with the Holy See.
The two have been fighting for thousands of years, and they reached a tacit understanding when they fought against China more than a hundred years ago. The parliament restrained its behavior, and the Holy See no longer fought with them!
Originally this was just a temporary ceasefire agreement, but the losses of both sides were too great that time, beyond imagination, and naturally they were unable to fight each other. The ceasefire agreement became a tacit understanding between each other and has been preserved to this day.
