Chapter 304 Second chance
"traitor!"
After another loud roar, Knight Jijingen, who was completely passively defensive, was finally beaten to the ground and lost his balance, kneeling down on one knee.
Pastor Grünewald could no longer see anything other than the Sickingen knight in his eyes. He put all his strength into the mace in his hand and slammed it down.
Sickingen struggled to raise his sword to resist Grünewald's blow. This blow full of anger and violence was called the strongest blow in the life of Pastor Grünewald. Knight Sickingen's
The sword was shattered.
However, this blow was also the last blow in Pastor Grünewald's life.
Destroying Sickingen's long sword was the limit of Pastor Grünewald. He raised his front line step by step during the fierce attack. Although the Bann warriors who were squeezed by a large number of Austrian troops could indeed be considered elite, they could not
Protected him.
Boss Sirica's dagger quickly inserted into the gap between Grünewald's helmet and breastplate, severing Pastor Ben's spine with a slight force.
This was the way Pastor Grunewald chose to die. It was not that he did not know the consequences of the fierce attack, but he just hoped to show the final dignity of Ben's followers.
After his death, other Bane warriors also fought to the end. In this face-to-face contest, Bane's elite warriors did not give up. Except for a few who were captured after exhaustion, most of them died in the battle.
The performance of those mercenaries was much worse. Ladislaus captured more than five hundred mercenaries. Their lives could be saved. If they could pay the fine, they would even be freed quickly. If they could not pay, they would have to move.
It has been bricked for several years.
The resistance in the city hall was much weaker than expected, and the Austrian army suffered very few casualties. However, in the process of attacking the Bann believers who were causing damage in the Dark Sun Cathedral, they suffered more casualties.
Although these fanatical believers who feared death had no armor or at least some short weapons, they resisted desperately in every room and did not hesitate to exchange their lives for lives. Several Austrian soldiers who thought these people were not a threat died inexplicably. In the end, Casa
Knight Noir and Boss Sirica decided to take the lead in breaking down the doors of rooms one by one to clean them.
"There is no need to go to such trouble. These heretics do not respect the true God. There is nothing we can do if they stubbornly resist and light a fire in His Majesty the Dark Sun's temple." Ladislaus ruthlessly judged the fate of these people.
In order to show its majesty, there was a large open space around the cathedral, which allowed the Austrians to quickly clear the fire zone and then set fire to this centuries-old cathedral, which was considered quite majestic in the entire Holy Roman Empire.
Although these Bane believers were old and young, Ladislaus had no sympathy in his heart. It was here that these Bane believers brutally killed hundreds of Sirik's followers. This was a ruthless but fair result.
The entire Austrian army entered the city before noon and took control of all key points in the city.
Ladislaus just watched it burn in front of the cathedral and did not receive any local nobles who asked for an audience.
After laying down layers of defenses around them to ensure vigilance, Ladislaus and Sazastan walked into the church together. The temperature in the church was still very high. Sazastan cast a "Resist Elemental Damage" on Ladislaus.
, he himself is not afraid of the heat.
But this is not necessary.
While calling Barbarossa's holy name in his heart, Ladislaus separated the arm that was connected to the "invitation to the feast" and let his own blood drip. Although it was only a few drops of blood, it made the entire burned
The church was filled with the smell of blood.
Following this bloody smell, scattered sparks were extinguished, and the church that was still on fire soon became a cool place in the summer.
In fact, the fire burned not long ago. Many of Ben's followers blocked the gaps in the room with soaked cloth strips and were not suffocated to death for the time being. However, this bloody smell is not a mortal flame. It can chase the breath of life.
After being "checked" again by this force, there are no survivors.
Ladislaus received special attention and gifts from the true God. At least his arms were no longer mortal flesh, and the blood flowing out was not mortal blood.
After experiencing this sacrifice, Ladislas's "Feast Invitation" was also able to activate the immunity to instant death effect. This is a protective effect that all monarchs need.
Of course, Sazastan strongly supported Ladislaus in burning down the Dark Sun Cathedral. This was a very happy decision for Cassus. He was guessing what Ladislaus meant by taking him to enjoy the Red Feast, and
Don't speak.
About an hour later, after all the corpses in the ruins had been transformed into continuations in the Pond of Ambition, Ladislaus said: "What a pity. There is such a wonderful history between this church and the Devil's Bridge.
It’s really unbearable to destroy it.”
"Indeed. But what is more important than history is the present." Sazastan understood that Ladislaus was affirming the alliance between Cassus and Barbarossa. "This time the Lord of Fire and the Knight of Vision will be satisfied."
"That is indeed my hope. Although this land must still be returned to the Church of the Dark Sun. However, destroying the Church of the Dark Sun is a good opportunity for His Majesty the Lord of Fire." Ladislaus's words were both temptation and temptation.
"Missionary affairs are only under the control of Her Royal Highness Anna. I am just a minister serving Austria." Sazastan did not accept the offer, but he still reciprocated a certain amount of goodwill. "His Majesty the Lord of Fire believes that the restoration of Bohemia
You should not enter other areas before you have a dominant position."
Ladislaus nodded. Since Cassus didn't want this territory, he should find a way to let the faith of the Knights of Vision penetrate.
"No matter how much loot I get from Regensburg, you will get one-third." Ladislaus stretched out his hand to stop Sazastan's humility, "This is what you deserve, and please give in to me."
The Knight of the Golden Root and the Reverend Odd Kessler are here to see me."
Oder Kessler felt refreshed as soon as he entered the burned church, while Knight Sickingen felt very uncomfortable after entering the ruins of the church.
Not only was the smell of blood sometimes very weak, sometimes very strong, but the crumbling state of the entire church after the fire also worried him. The once beautiful ceiling now looked very dangerous.
But Ladislaus and Ode Kessler were not worried at all, because they knew that Barbarossa had temporarily protected the place and the suspended ceiling would not fall.
"Knight Sickingen, few people in life can really get a second chance." Ladislaus's voice completely drew Knight Sickingen's attention. Since a member of the Habsburg family
He is not afraid of the building collapsing, so what is he afraid of? "You are lucky, this is your second chance."
"Villain..." Knight Sickingen ignored the scorched ground and the strange slurry, and knelt down to thank him.
Ladislaus did not stop him from kneeling down, but did not let him speak: "Neither my lord, His Majesty the Knight of Vision nor I care about those nonsense, His Majesty the Knight of Vision is watching here, and time is precious."
"No matter what happened in the past, you have done a great job in opening the door of Regensburg for me this time. As a reward, I provided a large number of sacrifices to His Majesty the Knight of Vision and asked him to let you become a priest. .”
"This is really my greatest honor." The knight level of Sickingen Knight has already entered the bottleneck period. Being able to add even the first level of priest level is a leap forward in his career.
