Chapter 671: Lure the tiger away from the mountain!

"What Edward said is so refreshing! Haha!"

"Although that killer is a bit hateful, I will forgive him this time as long as he can destroy the arrogance of these orcs!"

When Edward and other city lords left, only a group of young people were left in the entire banquet hall.

As melodious music sounded in the hall, the atmosphere of the banquet was officially restored.

And Laci immediately told Gervis how he felt.

He had thought that he would be the most dazzling guy in the audience tonight, but he didn't expect that the orc named Duola had a killer move and actually took out a weapon of legendary quality.

So he, the person who originally gave the most expensive gift, was pinned to the ground and rubbed the hardest.

What’s even more infuriating is that Doro actually arrogantly proposed to Adela, and they could only watch.

Fortunately, the appearance of the God of Death prevented all this, and he slammed Duo Luo's arrogance into pieces.

Although he saw Adela's happy expression after receiving the gift from the God of Killer, the limelight was still stolen by the God of Killer, but overall it was better than letting that ugly Dolo be proud.

So now Laci has a love-hate relationship with this god of death.

"Haha! Let's go! The party has begun!"

After hearing what Laci said, Gervis shook his head helplessly. He naturally knew what Laci was thinking at the moment, and he had nothing to say.

I just don’t know what Laqi will think when he finds out that I am the God of Death.

Next, Gervis began to finish the delicious food. As for chatting up the noble lady, she had no interest in it and probably thought that the noble lady might not like him.

Those who can enter this hall are basically descendants of high status in the family. In fact, this aristocratic world is very realistic and pays attention to matching each other.

With Harry's identity, even if he had a handsome face, it would probably be of no use, so he might as well have a good meal.

Because something unexpected happened in the middle of the banquet and Duke Edward and others left, Adela did not go down to dance the first dance of the banquet tonight. Instead, she walked to the soft chair on the side of the hall and chatted gently with several noble ladies. Even the girl Lolita was beside Adela at this time.

Gervis felt that Lolita was probably trying to trick Adela into talking, because the current God of Death was not only her archenemy, but also a clue about the potion.

…

While eating, Gervis turned his attention to the orcs. At this time, the orcs had calmed down a lot after the previous gift-giving incident. They did not continue to provoke the human youths, but just kept eating the delicacies on the long table.

These orcs were not able to dance gracefully like humans, and because the human food was exquisite and delicious, many of them had never eaten it before, so they naturally did not want to miss the opportunity.

However, the orc princess kept sitting in her seat drinking her drink and did not eat as much as the other orcs.

Many young men from the human race were still secretly looking at her at this moment, wanting to go up and flirt with her, but when they saw those burly orcs, they didn't have the courage to approach her.

…

More than half an hour later, a group of holy city lords rushed to the outside of the city. From more than two miles away, everyone saw the flames rising into the sky ahead.

At this time, their group of more than 300 people included not only the lords of various holy cities, but also the dean of the academy and several elders.

Although on normal days there are always some gaps between the various forces due to conflicts of interest.

But the New Temple is everyone's number one enemy, and everyone will temporarily put aside their differences and work together to deal with it.

Because the New Temple has betrayed the human race, and even the entire Holy Continent, they are committed to overthrowing the control of all races in the Holy Continent and want the undead creatures from more than two hundred years ago to dominate the world.

Everyone is still haunted by the catastrophe that happened more than two hundred years ago. If one is not careful, all races on the Holy Continent will be destroyed. That is why people are united in their hatred of the New Temple.

"It's the people from the New Temple! They actually sent out hundreds of people. What do they want to do?"

As the crowd got closer and closer to the camp with flames rising to the sky, they finally saw hundreds of people attacking the camp, and behind the crowd there were several flags of the New Temple flying.

"Kill them all, don't let them run away!"

A group of holy city lords held weapons in their hands, their bodies shining with fighting spirit, and rushed towards the battlefield ahead like meteors.

"Their reinforcements are coming! Let's retreat!"

The menacing scene here was immediately discovered by the personnel of the New Temple. Several shouts were heard from among the four to five hundred people of the New Temple, and then all the members of the New Temple actually fled in all directions.

Seeing such a scene, the lords of the holy city who were rushing forward frowned.

Today's New Temple members are too timid. In the past, New Temple members would not collapse so easily. Even if they did not fight to the death, they would only flee after losing more than half of their losses.

However, even though they frowned, the city lords continued to chase and kill for more than ten minutes, killing dozens of slow-running New Temple members before returning to the Golden Shield Family camp, which had been burned into ruins by the fire.

"Your Majesty the Duke!"

When Hulton and a group of city lords arrived in front of the still burning camp, a team leader immediately came to report.

At this time, there were many corpses lying in the camp, at least more than two hundred people.

Most of them were elite soldiers of the Golden Shield Family, and many of them were hacked to death before they could even put on their armor.

"What are the casualties? Why did the cultists from the New Temple suddenly appear?!"

Hulton looked very unhappy and spoke in a deep voice.

"Your Excellency, these cultists from the New Temple suddenly appeared after dark. It was dinner time at the camp. They first drove several large monsters to break through the camp gate under the cover of darkness, and then four or five hundred people rushed into the camp, setting fire and killing people everywhere."

"And there are quite a few strong ones among them, including several white and black flag knights. Fortunately, many soldiers did not take off their armor, so we were not defeated!"

"According to the rough statistics just now, a total of more than 150 of our soldiers were killed in the sneak attack by the cultists of the New Temple!"

The captain who came to report immediately informed Houston of the general situation.

"New Temple!"

When Hulton heard the loss of more than 150 people, he gritted his teeth.

You have to know that these elite soldiers are at least as strong as Golden Knights. Losing more than a hundred people at once would be painful even for the Golden Shield Family.

"You just said that the New Temple broke through the camp at the beginning, and there were several White Flag Knights and Black Flag Knights among the four or five hundred people?"

At this moment, Edward suddenly asked a question.

"Yes, your Excellency the Duke!"

When the captain heard Edward's question, he first looked at Hulton, and when he found that Hulton did not respond, he immediately responded carefully.

“It will take at least half an hour to get from here to the City of Hope for help. The people from the New Temple had enough time to set fire to the camp, yet there were only so few casualties!”

Edward's face immediately darkened when he heard the captain's answer.

"Duke Edward, what do you mean?"

When Hulton heard that Edward was dissatisfied with the small number of casualties, he immediately asked back in a deep and angry voice.

"If the New Temple continues to be fearless and fearless in the past, your camp will lose at least half of its troops! After all, gathering four or five hundred people to attack your camp is a big move by the New Temple!"

Edward was not disturbed by Hulton's angry tone, but continued to answer in a calm and low voice.

The Lords of the Holy City present were certainly not fools. After listening to Edward's words, they all nodded, and their faces turned ugly.

The cultists of the New Temple were like rats crossing the street that everyone wanted to kill in the Holy Alliance. Even if they took actions in the past, they only acted in groups of a few or dozens.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Because having fewer people can reduce the risk of being discovered, but if there are too many people and they are discovered, they will definitely be wiped out.

But tonight, these four or five hundred people from the New Temple acted together, but only killed a mere hundred or so soldiers from the Golden Shield Family. This is totally unacceptable. What on earth were they trying to achieve?

"Are you trying to lure us away?"

Suddenly, Dean Palmer, who had been silent, spoke.

"Let's go back to the City of Hope first!"

Edward remembered that his granddaughter was holding a birthday party today and he dared not neglect it anymore. He immediately exerted his fighting spirit to the extreme and headed towards the City of Hope.

…

In the cold jade manor in the city of hope.

"Lord Waddington, something bad has happened. One of the guests' intermediate-level magical beast mounts has gone mad and has injured several servants. Please go and take a look!"

At this time, Waddington was still standing at the door of the banquet hall, but suddenly a steward of the Leng Feicui Manor ran towards him in a hurry, with a look of anxiety on his face.

"Intermediate level magical beast? Take me to see it!"

After hearing this, Waddington nodded slightly and said something to the steward.

Before leaving, Waddington said to the four men standing at the door.

"Watch here. If the lady comes out, you must follow her."

"Yes, sir!"

Then, Waddington followed the butler to the place where the mounts were parked in the manor.

Roar! Roar!

After Waddington followed the steward for a few minutes, he indeed heard two roars of monsters coming from not far away.

However, as he was walking, after hearing these two roars, Waddington suddenly stopped.

"Lord Waddington, what's the matter?"

The steward saw Waddington stop and spoke out of curiosity!

"That monster is screaming loudly, but that's its dying cry, right?"

Waddington, who often dealt with griffins, immediately detected the fear in the cry.

"Haha! I didn't expect Lord Waddington to have such a skill!"

The steward smiled slightly when he heard what Waddington said and praised him.

clang!

"Who are you!"

Waddington drew his weapon and began to move back slightly, asking as he moved back.

Of course, he was not afraid of the manager in front of him, but he knew that these people had deceived him and might have some plan.

But Waddington took two steps back and suddenly stopped.

Because there was another person behind him.

Waddington frowned slightly and looked at the man behind him, because this man behind him made him feel a little threatened.

"Natali! The new Temple Master!"

Waddington's heart sank instantly. It turned out to be someone from the New Temple.

Wherever they appear, there will be blood and gore, because they have no humanity at all. They can and dare to kill anyone to achieve their goals!

"Haha, Hulton, please stay here for a while! We'll leave after we finish the things over there!"

This Netali is the middle-aged man who talked with Kinnear in the courtyard of the outer city today. He is one of the masters of the new temple.

"Then let's see if you have the life to stop me!"

"kill!"

When Waddington knew that it was someone from the New Temple, he didn't dare to delay any longer. He circulated his fighting spirit to the extreme and immediately swung his sword with endless murderous intent to kill Kinnear.

And Natali immediately stopped smiling, because Waddington was at the peak of Black Flag, and although he was also at the peak of Black Flag, he was still half a point weaker than Waddington, so he did not dare to neglect him at all.

However, he was not the only one present. After Waddington and Natali fought together, the steward who had led the way began to chant a spell, preparing to release magic.
