Chapter 1,310 The Shameless Flame High Priest(1/2)

Just as Nalant finished speaking, a swift eagle flapped its wings and landed from the sky.
Little Shirley immediately held the Swift Eagle in front of her.
Following Swift Eagle's report, Shirley's eyes widened immediately: "Sir, you are really right. Those legions of gods have already begun their fierce attack on the Holy City of Flame."
"And all the legions of gods launched a fierce attack at the same time."
"And because the soldiers on the Acropolis don't have enough to eat, and without the command of those commanders, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers on the Acropolis has weakened a lot, which makes the defense of the Holy City even more difficult!"
"Has it started? That's good. It's almost time for us to take action!" Nalant nodded.
At that moment, he called Quick directly, and then ordered the army to start pulling out the camp.
After packing up the camp, Nalant led the army straight to the Holy City of Flame.
Only after arriving two or three miles away from the Holy City of Flame did Nalant set up camp again.
The defenders on the city wall were shocked when they saw Nalant's team.
After all, several other city walls are now being attacked by the legions of gods, but there are no enemies on the south side. This also allows the defenders of the Flame Holy City to breathe a sigh of relief.
But if Nalant also joins the battle, the defense of the Flame Holy City will become more difficult.
Fortunately, although Nalant set up camp outside the city, he had no intention of attacking immediately.
After setting up the camp, they did nothing else except release a large number of scouts, which also made the high priest of fire and the city guard commander in the city breathe a huge sigh of relief.
Of course, even if Nalant did not join the battle, the other four legions of gods would continue to attack.
Just three or four days later, the Flame Holy City was on the verge of collapse.
Because many city guard soldiers could not bear the fierce fighting, they even began to secretly leave their posts and hide in the city.
Although the commander of the city guard also strictly arrests deserters, they will be killed if found.
But it still couldn't change the situation.
After all, the soldiers of the City Guards are from middle- and upper-class noble families, and it is okay to show off their power in front of believers and civilians.
But when faced with a truly bloody battle, a small number of people will still feel fear.
And the more this happens, the more unstable the military morale in the city becomes.
"Your Majesty the High Priest, more than a hundred deserters were caught today!"
The commander of the city guard will come to the temple to report every afternoon.
These days, the high-spirited spirit that day because of the suppression of several Acropolis commanders has long since disappeared.
Whether it was the commander of the city guard or the high priest of the flames, the worry on his face became obvious.
They all know that once the city wall is breached, they and others will suffer the consequences.
"They must be allowed to hold on, not only for the sake of our holy city, but also for their families."
"Tell them not to think that they can survive by hiding. If those divine invaders break through the city wall, they will also die by then!"
The Flame High Priest looked gloomy. He didn't expect the city guards to be so useless.
Some time ago, because there were soldiers from the Acropolis holding it up, it was not obvious that the situation was serious.
But as the soldiers of the Acropolis fell silent, the situation of the city guards was immediately highlighted.
The current Flame High Priest even slightly regrets why he had to deal with those Acropolis Commanders.
If I had known earlier, I would have waited until the war was over before dealing with them.
Of course, there is no regret in taking medicine in this world, and the Flame High Priest at that time did not know that these low-level soldiers who he usually looked down upon were so powerful.
In addition, even if he realizes the situation now, the Flame High Priest will not make changes.
Because even if he releases those commanders, he still needs to worry about whether these Acropolis commanders will bite him back.
"Yes, Your Excellency the High Priest!"
"Well, in addition, you also tell them that if they don't fight well, their family will also be implicated."
"Now is an extraordinary period, and extraordinary measures should be used!"
"Yes, Your Excellency the High Priest!"
Faced with the arrangement of the Flame High Priest, the city guard commanders all obeyed obediently.
Immediately, when the city guard commander retreated, the Flame High Priest fell into deep thought again.
At this moment, he had already expected that the Holy City would be destroyed.
Whether it is because the city guards cannot be reused, or the food in the city is about to be exhausted.
This all means that the Flame Holy City cannot last long.
In fact, if it had been before, if the Holy City of Flame really couldn't be defended, he would have changed his appearance and pretended to be an ordinary civilian to avoid this disaster.
But now, with the blasphemy on his back, it may be difficult to escape.
After all, the former high priest was dispensable to the gods. He was still just an ant. What they wanted was the holy city and the temple.
But it's different now. He has become an equally important existence in the holy city and the temple.
Those soldiers of the legion of gods will definitely congratulate him for catching him, the high priest of fire, as the highest honor.
"No, I have to find a way!"
The eyes of the Flame High Priest began to flicker, and then he seemed to have made some important decision.
So he first spread out the letter paper on the table beside him, and then started writing on it.
After the writing was completed, he found several of his most confidants.
"Lord High Priest!"
Several attendants knelt on the ground respectfully.
"Get up, I have an extremely important thing here that needs you to go and do!"
"Then let the four of you send these envelopes to several god legion camps respectively!"
"Remember, apart from the four of you, no fifth person can know about this mission!"
The High Priest of Flame spoke solemnly.
These attendants can also be regarded as dead warriors, whom he deliberately cultivated after becoming the high priest.
He also has hundreds of such attendants.
Although his strength is not particularly high, he is loyal enough to kneel down.
"Yes, Lord High Priest!"
When several people heard that they were going to deliver a message to several legions of gods, they did not show any strange expressions on their faces, but responded respectfully.
Obviously, they are truly obedient to the orders of the Flame High Priest and will not consider anything else.
"Very good, go now, remember that this letter must be handed over to their gods with your own hands!"
Immediately, the Flame High Priest led several people to the back of the temple.
Behind the He Temple is a cliff with a height of four to five hundred meters.
However, the Flame High Priest had already made arrangements here and prepared a rope long enough.
In this way, the attendants who were responsible for delivering the message were all lowered into the hanging basket along the ropes.
It was almost late at night, and several messengers arrived near the legions of gods one after another.
Of course, their whereabouts were quickly discovered by the scouts of these gods' legions.
"who!"
When the scout saw the attendant appearing alone outside the city, he immediately drew his sword and questioned him.
"I come from the Flame Holy City Temple, and I have a letter here that I want to give to your god!" The attendant also received an explanation, so he responded to his purpose in a cooperative manner.
Of course, in order to ensure the safety of the Flame High Priest, these attendants will not reveal the identity of the Flame High Priest until they meet the gods.
In this way, he only said that he came from the temple, and this identity was enough to attract the other party's attention.
"Want to see the gods?"
To be continued...
