The Holy Knights of Hakans City had fallen into despair.
No matter how they resisted, no matter how much they struggled, they could not resist the attacks of the metal monster in front of them. Just as they were using their lives and flesh to delay the enemy's advance, an even larger and more terrifying flame giant rushed forward.
Fireballs exploded in the middle of the crowd, forming huge fireballs and ring-shaped shockwaves that burned the Holy Knights black and blue, leaving them with cuts and bruises all over their bodies. Taking advantage of the chaos in their formation, the metal monster roared and charged in.
The Holy Knights' line of defense finally collapsed!
Grimm walked into the Chapel of Holy Light by stepping on the bodies of the Paladins.
As he advanced, Grimm sprinkled out scarlet flames, incinerating the bodies of the Holy Knights that died along the way. As for the milky white rays of holy light, they seemed to be attracted to the fist-sized transparent crystal on Grimm's waist as though they were attracted by a magnet.
The two gates of the Chapel of Light were magnificent and elegant, with some poems praising the Holy Light engraved on them as well as exquisite decorative patterns. Such a gate was obviously not good at defense!
Thus, the elemental magic machine only needed to lightly ram into it before the gate collapsed, crushing some of the Holy Knights underneath. Amidst the loud noise and flying dust, a few Holy Knights charged out with their swords raised high, their bodies covered in blood.
Unfortunately, their meager strength was nothing in the face of the berserk elemental magic machinery, even if they had more Divine Halos!
The Elemental Magic Machine stepped in and raised its two thick metal arms high up, shooting out a string of Ice Lances, or throwing out a violent energy web, or spewing out a thick stream of high-temperature flames, or flying out tornadoes …
Although the magic energy was not as strong as the spells of the Magi, it was endless, and the quantity was astonishing. Thus, with its absolute numbers, it swept away a large number of the stubborn Holy Knights. Occasionally, some Holy Knights raised their shields and charged in front of the elemental magic machine, but before they could display their exquisite combat skills, they were sent flying by the simple iron fists of the elemental magic machine.
In the face of absolute power, techniques were so weak that there was almost no room for them to display their skills!
Behind the gate was a huge training ground. It was obvious that this was where the Holy Knights trained. Around the training ground were spacious corridors that led to different areas.
Among them, the tallest and most majestic chapel was located right in front of the training ground.
It was also the place where the Holy Knights meditated and communicated with the great Holy Light. Usually, it was only open to believers on Sundays, allowing them to pay homage to the warriors who had sacrificed their lives for the sacred cause of the Empire.
On the left side of the training ground were rows of tall wooden houses of the same style. At first glance, it was obvious that these were the living quarters of the Holy Knights. There was also a large library and dining hall inside. The right side of the training ground was where the armory, armory, prison, and other large military buildings were located.
Apart from the two to three hundred Holy Knights, there were also more than two hundred apprentice Knights selected from all over the empire stationed in this huge Chapel of Holy Light. In addition to all kinds of odd-job workers and craftsmen, there were at least a thousand people.
However, when the elemental equipment and Grimm, who had turned into a huge flaming man, rushed into the chapel one after another. Under the cover of the light red flame barrier, ordinary mortals did not even have the chance to make a sound before they were instantly turned into ashes. Only the powerful Holy Knights could barely resist the burning magic flames with the help of the Holy Light.
However, with their strength, how long could they last in the flame barrier?
Hence, as Grimm moved forward, the residences and houses he passed would explode with flames, followed by pieces of flying ash. There was no space for ordinary mortals to survive.
The Holy Knights who ran out of the various buildings in groups shouted and rushed forward, but they were all smashed to the ground by the elemental equipment. Occasionally, there were too many people for the elemental equipment to handle. Grimm, who was leisurely following behind, threw a violent fireball at them, and the whole world instantly became quiet!
The difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Even if they were valiant and determined to fight, they could not stop Grimm's footsteps.
In just a quarter of an hour, the elemental equipment broke through the last group of Holy Knights in front of the chapel and smoothly entered the cathedral. There were dozens of injured Holy Knights lying on the ground. All of them were riddled with injuries and on the verge of death. Most of them had broken limbs and were seriously injured. One look and it was obvious that they were seriously injured and could not be saved.
Apart from these injured Holy Knights, there were also hundreds of mortals hiding in the corners of the cathedral. Looking at the huge metal giants and the terrifying flaming man that looked like the God of Destruction, they all hugged each other and shivered.
Resist? The power of these invaders from another world was something they could never imagine. Not to mention resisting, they did not even have the power to stand in front of Grimm.
Looking at the pale red barrier pressing down on them, everyone's eyes were filled with despair and fear. Some women, children, and the elderly hugged their heads and cried bitterly. The young men and women also clenched their teeth and waited for the arrival of death.
"Wait a minute …"
Just when the final fate was about to come, a young Holy Knight wearing exquisite half-body armor suddenly stood up and pulled out a greatsword that was almost as tall as herself. She pointed it at Grimm and shouted, "Demon, you want us, not these mortals. As long as you let these mortals go, we … we are willing to give up resistance! "
The young Holy Knight's voice was clear and loud, with a hint of a young girl's voice that had not faded.
As she gently took off the mask on her face, a young and tender face was revealed. It was filled with determination and pain.
A little Apprentice Knight …
Although she had gathered her courage to stand in front of the elemental equipment and Grimm, her greatsword was slightly trembling, showing that she was not calm.
With Grimm's six-meter-tall body, no matter how big the cathedral was, it would not be easy for him to enter and exit.
Therefore, Grimm's body was covered in flames, and a huge human-shaped passage was formed on the side of the cathedral. Only then did he take large strides in.
At this moment, looking at the little Apprentice Knight blocking in front of him, Grimm could not help but chuckle. He slightly lowered his body, and the flames in his eyes condensed. A stream of crimson flames struck the greatsword that the girl held high, and in an instant, only a short section of it was left.
The girl cried out in surprise, and the bright red sword in her hand fell to the ground. The wooden floor beneath her feet was scorched, and black smoke was coming out of it.
Facing the terrifying flaming man in front of her, the girl's frail body trembled slightly. Because she was too close to him, she could even feel the strange sensation of the flames on the giant's body licking her hair and armor. In such an environment, every time the girl breathed, what she inhaled was no longer sweet air, but a stream of high temperature that could corrode bones and corrode flesh.
Her nose was on fire, and her chest was burning. Her entire body could feel the intense burning sensation. The girl's face was flushed red, and she could barely breathe.
Looking at the situation in the cathedral again, Grimm stopped in his tracks, and began to slowly retract the overflowing flame energy in his body. The temperature within ten meters of him immediately dropped from a terrifying 3000 degrees to 1200 degrees. Although it had dropped a lot, it was still fatal to mortals who lacked protection.
"Life should not be wasted like this!" Grimm said in a low voice, "You can leave with these mortals! Anyone below Iron-rank can leave. I'll only give you three minutes … "
Grimm spoke in the common language of Zambis, and the mortals hiding in the corner stopped crying when they heard him. Their faces were once again filled with hope.
"Three minutes … You only have three minutes! Once the time is up, everyone here must die! "
Hearing the roar of the Flame Giant again, the odd-job workers, craftsmen, and ordinary people in the corner looked at each other. They did not know if they should believe the words of this demon from another world.
Finally, a middle-aged man plucked up his courage and carefully bypassed Lord Gao. He did not start running until he had walked out of the cathedral.
With this, the rest of the people finally remembered that time was pressing. They supported each other and clustered around each other. They walked past Grimm in fear and escaped from the cathedral.
It was only after Grimm withdrew his flame barrier and restrained the overflowing flame energy in his body that they were able to escape. Otherwise, with the power of a Grade 3 Fire Wizard, he could kill everyone in the cathedral with just his overflowing energy without using any spells.
Grimm was not a bloodthirsty person. The reason why he slaughtered the Holy Knights was for the strange Holy Light that they condensed after their deaths. As long as those mortals did not hinder him, there was no need for him to kill them.
It was the same reason why he let those guys below Black Iron Knight leave.
These guys had not leveled up yet, so it was impossible for their bodies to produce enough Holy Light energy. Therefore, Grimm would not gain anything by killing them, so he did not mind letting them go.
As for whether or not the other party would continue to oppose him after escaping, Grimm had never considered this.
In front of him, even a Grade 3 Golden Knight would have to suffer a grievance. What harm would a bunch of little fellows who hadn't even reached Grade 1 bring to him if they were dead or alive?
"No, I will not leave …" Although she was trembling in fear, the girl still persisted. "My life belongs to the Holy Light. I am willing to sacrifice myself for it!"
