Chapter 67 The eve of the battle


    As the Imperial Captain said, this place is simply hell.


    Everyone is walking along the way. What you see are shocking and tragic scenes, with weird flesh and blood clinging to the walls and the ground. In addition, you can also see hanging corpses and corpses in cages... The whole city looks like A disgusting execution ground with no boundaries.


    No one spoke, and it seemed that even if one spoke a word here, one would breathe poisonous and almost filthy air. Lorena had already folded her hands and murmured a prayer. Meludi next to her was also carrying a rifle, scanning the surroundings with obvious disgust and vigilance. Although they had learned about the situation in this world from Duanmu Huai, they only discovered this after seeing it with their own eyes. The darkness the world has encountered far exceeds their imagination.


    ?Only Fia was walking behind, her eyes sparkling, looking around excitedly like a mouse in a rice vat. It seemed that for her, all of this was filled with some particularly strong stimulation... although maybe that was indeed the case.


    Soon, the group arrived at the destination and met the members of the Sisters there. Joining them were three battle nuns. They were wearing nun uniforms and holding warhammers and shields in their hands - well, they looked very... Looks like he can fight.


    “If you hadn’t come, we might have to reconsider our next steps.”


    Looking at Duanmu Huai, the leading battle nun looked at the imperial captain and said.


    “How is the situation in the temple now?”


    “Very bad.”


    The nuns shook their heads.


    “At the beginning, the Skaven occupied this temple, and they tried to recreate the evil of the Great Disaster by building the Bell of Disaster here.”


    Hearing this, everyone''s expressions changed. The Bell of Disaster was the big bell that appeared in the legend of the birth of the Rat Man. At that time, the big bell rang thirteen times, bringing about the plague disaster and the comet. The Bell of Disaster seems to come from this legend. It is also a powerful and terrifying weapon of the rat people. If such a blasphemous Bell of Disaster is built in the temple of Sigmar, what will happen... It is simply unimaginable.


    “But soon, the Chaos Warriors attacked this temple and drove out the Ratmen. But they planned to open a portal here and summon Chaos Demons..."


    …………”


    At this time, everyone''s faces were as cold as ice. It was obvious that the temple was now in a very dangerous situation. Whether it is used by the Skaven to ring bells or used by Chaos Warriors to build portals, it is not what they expected. After all, if the Chaos Warriors really succeed in building the portal here, then the army of the Chaos Evil God can pass through here to wreak havoc within the empire, and the consequences will be simply unimaginable.


    After the Chaos Warriors captured the temple, they sealed the gate of the temple and placed heavy guards around it. It was obviously impossible for three battle sisters to break through their defense.


    But it’s not that easy to break in.


    The Temple of Sigmar itself also has towering walls and gates. It is basically equivalent to a small fortress inside the city, and it has not been damaged. In this case, it is too difficult to force a breakthrough. The only option is to go around from behind, but the guards there are very tight. According to the Battle Sisters, the Chaos Warriors have even summoned several demons...


    “Then leave it to me.”


    ?At this moment, Duanmuhuai stepped forward and spoke.


    "you?"


    Hearing Duanmu Huai’s words, the battle nun glanced at him doubtfully.


    “What are you going to do?”


    "My battle group is responsible for the frontal attack to attract the attention of the Chaos believers, while you sneak in from the rear while their attention is distracted by me. How about it? It''s a very simple plan."


    “This is very simple, but...are you okay?”


    The battle nuns have no doubts about Duanmu Huai''s fighting ability. After all, he looks like he can fight very well. However, the girls following Duanmu Huai make the battle nuns somewhat doubtful - after all, they don''t dress very much. He is a person who often fights.


    “No problem, leave it to us.”


    “That’s it.”


    The Battle Sister briefly discussed with the Imperial Captain and decided to follow Duanmu Huai''s suggestion. After all, there is really no other way now. Although Duanmu Huai''s suggestion is simple, it is really the most suitable for now.


    The premise is that they can attract each other''s attention.


    Soon, after confirming the plan, the two sides separated. The Battle Sisters led the other two battle groups to the rear alley, while Duanmu Huai was in front preparing to attack.


    Looking at the people''s retreating figures, Duanmu Huai''s eyes narrowed slightly, then he lightly snapped his fingers, and soon there was a slight movement in the air, and several invisible [Murderous Dolls] followed the people quietly. behind.


    Although we are all companions for the time being, Duanmu Huai never forgets to be wary of these locals. For an inquisitor, when he comes to a planet, everyone on the planet except himself, regardless of men, women, old or young, are potential targets of trial. Anyone may be a minions and spy of Chaos. .


    ?For example, these battle nuns of the Sisters may have already changed their sect and become servants of some Chaos Evil God.


    ??Or maybe there are people in the imperial army who are secretly colluding with those heretical demons.


    ?Hence, Duanmu Huai never forgets to keep these people in reserve, especially after having the [Murderous Doll], he would rather spend his spiritual energy to summon several [Murderous Dolls] to monitor the opponent, hoping to gain the initiative.


    "Okay." 　　　Withdrawing his gaze, Duanmu Huai looked at the girls behind him.


    “This will be your first battle in this world, are you nervous?”


    “More, more or less, my lord knight.”


    Lorena also seemed a little uneasy at the moment, but she still clenched her fists.


    “However, I will try my best.”


    “Well, don’t worry so much, most of the enemies here are not your opponents.”


    To be honest, just the power of [Lorena''s Iron Fist] can defeat most of the enemies here, even if the high-level demons come, they are not afraid.


    “What am I going to do?”


    ?Meludi seemed calmer, perhaps because she was born in the military and quickly got used to this kind of scene.


    “Find a high place and snipe down the Chaos believers on those high platforms as we rush forward.”


    Duanmuhuai pointed at the Chaos believers patrolling with bows and arrows on the platform above the temple.


    “Of course, you also have to be careful. As you just heard, there are many complex forces lurking in this city. Maybe something will come over and give you a knife when you are not prepared, so...”


    After saying this, Duanmuhuai looked at Feiya.


    “Fia, I want you to bring a few murderous dolls here to protect Meludi and prevent her from being harmed.”


    "Why?"


    Hearing Duanmuhuai’s order, Feiya was obviously quite dissatisfied.


    “Can’t I go up and kill them, Master? I want to kill them all! Everyone, no one left!”


    “You will still have enemies to kill if you stay here, but if I find out that you left your post without authorization, you will never have the chance to come out again.”


    ? Duanmu Huai had to admit that the mental problem of this puppet killer was really serious, but fortunately, as long as she was obedient, she could still be used as a tool.


    Fortunately, Duanmuhuai is not a pure judge, otherwise he would have dealt with Fiya long ago. In fact, almost any player can be considered a member of the radical faction. This also profoundly affects the war pattern in the later stages of the game...well, it''s a little too early to say that now.


    ?After teaching Feiya a lesson, Duanmuhuai turned to Ogis.


    “Ogis, are you coming with me… Ogis?”


    However, this time the doll girl did not respond to Duanmuhuai''s words as usual. On the contrary, her eyes were wandering, as if she was thinking about something. It was not until Duanmuhuai called her name again that Ogis came back to her senses.


    "Ah, Master, I''m so sorry, I...I don''t know what happened to me..."


    “No, it’s nothing, it’s normal.”


    Of course Duanmuhuai knew what Ojis was troubled about. In the previous battle in the Holy City, Qiowei madly pounced on the nun at the last moment, preventing her from further action, allowing Duanmuhuai to successfully destroy the temple. But Qianwei was also involved in the big explosion after that and turned into fragments. In the end, Ogis only found half of Qianwei''s head.


    At that time, Duanmuhuai saw Ogis holding the half of her head and staring at it for a long time, and didn’t know what she was thinking. Finally, the two gathered the remains of Qiuwei, burned them on fire, and buried them.


    ??Although the two people have not been in contact for a long time, strictly speaking, Qiu Wei is indeed Ogis''s sister. It is normal for the doll girl to be troubled by this. In other words, this is what Duanmu Huai wants to see, because only beings with souls and hearts can have feelings. This also shows that Ogis''s heart has indeed grown during the time she followed him. On the contrary, if Ogis shows that nothing is wrong, Duanmuhuai will have to reflect on whether there is something wrong with his strategy.


    "I will have a good talk with you later. Now focus on the battle. You will cooperate with me to storm the temple and attract the attention of Chaos believers. Is there any problem?"


    ?This time, faced with Duanmuhuai’s question, Ogis shook her head without hesitation.


    “No, Master.”


    "very good."


    ?Hearing Ogis''s answer, Duanmu Huai nodded, and then he tightened his grip on the war hammer.


    “Then, get ready to take action!”
