"Ambush —"
The sound of the two Templar Guards unsheathing their swords was unusually crisp. Although they were not too mentally prepared for an attack on the Monastery, they were still level-15 soldiers after all. Their ability to adapt to the situation was not bad at all.
In contrast, Booker and the rest who had no combat experience appeared dull and slow. Clayon, who was full of praises, was still in a daze. He had no idea what was going on.
The arrow on the ground was still quivering. Brook turned his stiff gaze to the crowd in the distance, but he did not see the archer with the bow and arrow. Other than the pedestrians on the street, there was only the three-storey mansion in front of him. Looking at it from afar, it was impossible to see where the archer who shot the arrow was hiding.
"Get out of the way! Don't just stand there! "
The temple guards were rather dutiful. They rushed forward and pulled Booker, Chrissy, and the others back with their large hands. They were clad in armor and appeared to be much broader than the average person. Although there were only two of them, they were quite intimidating as they stood in front of the monastery.
Lionel only realized what had happened after he was dragged back a few steps. His left hand's "OK" gesture seemed to have been maintained due to the shock. At this moment, it looked as laughable as if he had contracted polio. However, when these young men looked past the guards to the front, none of them could laugh out loud …
More than ten meters away, the bard who was holding the Vielletta raised his hand and took out a pitch-black crossbow from his backpack. He pointed it directly at the group's back.
* Whoosh! *
An arrow flew through the gap between the group's heads and headed straight for the retreating Sally.
The arrow brushed past Clayon's scalp and froze him in place as if he was frozen. Sally, who was behind him, dodged in time and was not hit. The arrow hit the stone wall of the cathedral with a loud crack. The sound of wood shattering made the nuns and friars break out in cold sweat.
The Temple Guard did not expect such a situation to occur, and he shouted:
"It's an assassin!"
"Stop them!"
In front of the temple guards, the assassin who was dressed as a believer was about to give up on the assassination. However, because of the sudden arrow, all his plans were disrupted. He could have entered the monastery without anyone noticing and killed Sally in front of the church. However, his comrade had taken out his crossbow and caused the situation to become irreversible. At this point, he could only bite the bullet and make a choice that he had no other choice but to do …
"Do it!"
He gritted his teeth and gave the order to carry out the assassination, and this made the Holy Sanctum Guards aware of the severity of the situation, they raised their swords in a defensive stance, and shouted "Stop", "What are you doing" and other similar words.
Of course, such a question would not get a reliable answer, and the reason he shouted it out was to give himself a reason to attack. Until now, the Temple Guards had no idea how many assassins were attacking the monastery, and they did not even know the purpose of the assassins ….
Obviously, even if they had the upper hand because of the arrow, the temple guards were still at a disadvantage.
At this time, the assassin dressed as a believer had approached the two guards. After deciding to continue the assassination, he pulled out a long sword from under his robe and slashed it vertically!
The guards swung their swords to block, and the sound of weapons clashing could be heard.
Seven or eight meters away, the assassin disguised as a bard threw away the crossbow and pulled out a dagger from the head of the Vielle. He stepped forward and was ready to join the battle. But before he could take a few steps, the two men who rushed up from the side also pulled out a machete and an axe from under their robes, and stopped him!
The assassin was shocked. He raised his hand to block and retreated. When he looked carefully, he realized that the two people who blocked him were actually soldiers disguised as commoners.
The two mercenaries that Sally had sent to guard the monastery were finally put to use. Although they were not as strong as the temple guards, they could still block the assassin with their teamwork. For a moment, two one-on-two battles took place in front of the monastery. Angry shouts and screams filled the entire street …
At the same time, Booker and the others who were standing behind the two monastery guards seemed to have forgotten what they were supposed to do. They just stood there stupidly until a beam of light fell on Leon's body. Only then did the young monk, who seemed to have been petrified, return to his senses.
Sally's voice came from afar. "Stay away! Don't just stand there! Use your divine spells! "
As soon as her voice trailed off, a '+ 5 Strength' Lion King's Strength 'divine spell fell on one of the temple guards. She stood in front of the church and chanted prayers. She stood behind the stone pillar in the hall and released a series of divine spells!
The light that fell on Clayon's body just now was Sally's "Light of Agility". Although it was only Level 1 and the effect was only "+ 5 agility", she had used her actions to wake Clayon and the others up.
Everyone practiced and prayed almost the same. But it was at this moment that people could see the personality and ability of the people in the monastery. Booker and Lane, who used to advocate 'war', 'killing' and 'passion', were acting like idiots. On the contrary, Sally, who was always quiet and quiet, found a way to deal with the situation and immediately made a decision!
"Booker! Lane! Get back! "
"Chris! Go to the back and find the bishop! "
"Alice! Pull them back! "
For a period of time, Sally had secretly arranged for her subordinates to carry out various activities outside the monastery. As they were completely isolated, all the decisions had to be made and handled by her alone. On top of that, she had experienced trials and tribulations together with Rody. As a result, this kind of assassination did not make her feel too flustered.
At this moment, Sally did not say much. She just gave orders like 'go here' and 'go there', and it immediately brought the panic under control. The monks immediately responded. They cast all the divine spells they could on the temple guards. A few nuns were ordered to go to the back to find the bishop and the bishop. They jogged towards the church with Sally.
At the same time, a golden light flashed at the entrance of the monastery. Amidst the golden light, there was an offensive Divine Spell of Punishment. It seemed that the young monks of the monastery were working together to help the temple guards defeat the assassin, and with seven to eight of them against one, it seemed like victory was within their grasp.
However, what happened next was beyond the imagination of these young people.
"Ha!"
With an angry roar, the believer assassin abruptly parried the guard's attack. A powerful shockwave erupted from his body, and with a "ka" sound, he actually knocked away the longsword of the temple guard!
This was the advanced profession 'Rogue Swordsman's' skill – 'Forced Disarm'!
At this point, the Assassin had fully displayed his formidable strength. He had advanced to level 5, so his strength was completely above the two guards of the Monastery. Even though the temple guards were buffed by more than three to four low-level divine spells, they still could not withstand the advanced skill 'Forced Disarm', and instantly lost their ability to fight!
Raising his leg, he kicked the other temple guard away. The assassin with explosive power directly broke through the defense and rushed towards the church. The monk in front of him was casually hit in the head with the hilt of his sword, and he did not even have the chance to make a sound before he fainted. After taking a few steps, he suddenly remembered the arrow that ruined his plan. He immediately turned around and looked at the building in the distance.
In the previous battle, the reason why he waited for a long time to finish off the two guards who were much weaker than him was because he was waiting for a sneak attack from behind. However, he didn't expect that the other party would actually remain silent after the arrow was shot … This made him feel irritated that he had wasted his time. Looking at the empty balcony and the crowd that was scattering in fear, he coldly snorted and shouted to his companions: "Be careful, there are arrows in the dark, quickly finish them off!"
After saying that, he rushed towards Sally who had already run into the front hall of the church.
Behind the leader of the assassins, the bard dressed assassin had already gained the upper hand in the battle against the two mercenaries with his swordsmanship and level advantage. Upon hearing the leader's words, the assassin replied, "Immediately!" His gaze swept across the street and the balcony. After confirming that there was no one shooting arrows, he suddenly changed his stance and forced the two mercenaries to retreat to the side of the guards in front of the Monastery's entrance ….
Before the disarmed temple guard could get up, the other guard noticed the situation and instinctively raised his sword to help. But just as he took two steps forward and was about to join the battle, the gaudy dressed assassin shouted: "Now!"
A strange smile appeared on the assassin's face, and the surrounding mercenaries and temple guards were stunned. But after a muffled sound, the two mercenaries immediately turned their heads. They saw that the temple guard who came to help had suddenly been pierced through the right chest by a long sword!
The attacker was the fat merchant who had a harmless smile on his face that no one had noticed before.
However, Fatty's face didn't show any signs of complacency after his successful attack. Instead, he kicked the guard who had lost the ability to fight to the side and scrambled towards the back of the monastery's main entrance to hide …
At this moment, the two mercenaries who were standing there saw a long arrow nailed to the ground beside the fallen temple guard!
"Damn it!"
"There is an arrow in the dark!"
