Garrison Officer Ansela's room was on the left side of the Holy Light Chapel's training camp. It was a simple wooden hut.
When Grimm was led into the hut by Toti, Garrison Officer Ansela was fighting hard against the pile of documents on his desk that almost reached the ceiling. Hearing the sound of someone entering, Ansela raised his head and stared blankly at the two. After a long while, his eyes regained focus.
He was a Grade 2 Silver Knight!
Although his physique had deteriorated due to his long hours of work and he had a big belly, the holy light radiating from his body was a real Grade 2 Knight.
"Report! Respected Garrison Officer Ansela, Apprentice Knight Toti has been ordered to … "The young knight stood at attention and reported loudly.
Unfortunately, he was interrupted by the impatient Garrison Officer before he could finish his sentence.
"Alright, alright … Toti, you have to come here at least three times a day. You may not be tired of these boring honorifics, but I'm tired of it. Also, remember to praise the Holy Light before you speak next time! "
"Yes, Garrison Officer!"
"Alright, you may return to your post. I will personally receive this Holy Light brother."
"Yes, Garrison Officer!"
After standing at attention again, Toti turned around and left the hut.
The Garrison Officer Anselm also couldn't help but look at Grim.
"May the light be with us! Respected Garrison Officer, how do you do? My name is … "
Grimm did not dare to be careless and immediately reported to Ansela according to the Holy Knight's etiquette. Of course, his words were the same as before. In this foreign world where the flow of information was not complete, Grimm was not worried that his' lies' would be seen through by the enemy.
Moreover, with Soden's Divine Ring, Grimm could easily convert his elemental energy into pure light elements. As long as he did not make a move, it would not be a problem to hide from these Holy Knights.
To be honest, none of the Holy Knights would have thought that a wizard from another world would be able to sneak into their ranks. After all, the Holy Light was a product of the power of faith, and it was one of the powers that wizards hated the most!
The Garrison Officer was naturally happy to see this young knight who came from afar and was willing to give his all for the Holy Light. Although in a few days, the legendary Adde? Lord Kalle would soon arrive, but before that, Hesath City was still in great danger.
It was said that Hakans City, the core city of the northern part of the empire, had been destroyed by a wizard invasion.
Two Tier 3 Sorcerers, a man and a woman, had invaded Hakans City and started a fight. They had even summoned a large number of terrifying flaming creatures. Even with the protection of a powerful Tier 3 Golden Knight, Harkanth City still fell to the enemy.
With the death of the Grade 3 Knight, Hakans City was reduced to rubble.
In this battle alone, close to two hundred Holy Knights perished in the sea of fire, their souls returning to the embrace of the Holy Light.
The entire Holy Knight's Northern Division was heavily damaged. Without hundreds of years of recuperation, it would be difficult for it to recover to its original scale and quality. And the shock it brought to the Zambis Empire was no less than the first invasion of the evil witches a hundred years ago.
With Hakans City as an example, no Holy Knight dared to say that the Chapel of Light was absolutely safe. Especially when the witches and the materials for the spell formation were transported to Hesath City, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Worried that Hesath City would suffer the same fate as Hakans City, the Holy Light Commander and the garrison officers all sent out a call to the surrounding chapels, calling for them to come and protect the land of glory of the Holy Light.
In just a short time, the Hesath Chapel of Light was overcrowded with people!
After briefly explaining the situation here to Grimm, Ansela apologetically asked him to temporarily stay in a hotel near the Chapel of Light. All the accommodation and food expenses would be paid for by the Chapel.
Of course, Grimm understood such a rude 'request' and happily agreed.
And so, under the protection of two guards sent by Ansela, Grimm successfully moved into a large hotel that was only two streets away from the Chapel of Light. Here, Grimm met with the Paladins from the cities around Seaath.
Of course, they were all Tier 1 Black Iron Knights.
Even if the living facilities in the Chapel of Light were insufficient, it was still possible to squeeze some space for the Tier 2 Silver Knights. Therefore, almost all the Black Iron Knights were assigned to the outside of the Chapel of Light.
If this was any other country, the Holy Knights would have long been dissatisfied with the difference in treatment. However, these Holy Knights were true believers of the Holy Light. None of them cared about the difference in treatment. Instead, they gathered together and discussed the possible evil sorcerer.
When all kinds of Black Iron Knights gathered together, there would always be some who were especially well-informed.
Therefore, many people would gather around them to listen to them talk about the stories that happened in the northern part of the Empire.
Balrog … Fire Giant … Mechanical Witch … Fire Creature … Giant Dragon …
Any one of the bizarre 'story' elements could make these black iron knights feel a sense of danger, not to mention that they converged in the same place at the same time.
No matter how great a city was, no matter how many Holy Knights were guarding it, if they were to encounter such a powerful evil sorcerer, they would inevitably become a sacrificial offering. Unless they had a guardian like a Tier 4 Holy Knight, the Holy Knights would have to pay an unimaginable sacrifice if they wanted to defeat such an evil sorcerer.
While they were chatting, Grimm inadvertently obtained an extremely valuable piece of information.
A Tier 4 Holy Knight was rushing here from the north. It was estimated that he would arrive in Hasath City in seven to eight days.
This piece of information was spread by the high-ranking knights of the Holy Light Chapel to reassure the Black Iron Knights. However, they never imagined that the terrifying fire sorcerer would infiltrate their ranks and obtain this extremely valuable piece of strategic information.
With Grimm's strength, could he fight against a Tier 4 Holy Knight?
What a joke!
If the news said that the Tier 4 Holy Knight would arrive in Hasath City tomorrow, then Grimm would definitely leave tonight without any hesitation. Coming to Envik Plane was only to complete a mission. Grimm didn't want to risk his precious life for it.
The reason why Grimm was so unrestrained and devoted to the battle in Hasath City was because there was no one there that could threaten his life. Even if he was besieged by several Tier 3 Holy Knights, Grimm was confident that he could escape with his own strength.
It was precisely because of this confidence that he chose to put everything on the line in order to obtain the most benefits in the short term!
After hearing so much fragmented information today, Grimm pieced it all together and came to a conclusion that made him feel slightly afraid.
That Tier 4 Holy Knight had suddenly appeared in the north. It was very likely that he had come to kill Shi Feng.
However, after he left Hasath City, he was chased by a group of Wizard Hunters. In order to avoid being hunted down, Grimm suddenly thought of escaping for a thousand miles, which coincidentally allowed him to avoid the blade of the Tier 4 Holy Knight.
He wondered if those fellows who were chasing him were still in the north. If they had hesitated for even a moment and remained there, they might have run into that Tier 4 Paladin.
Although wizards had always looked down on warriors and knights, they still had to pay a certain amount of respect to high-grade warriors. Otherwise, they wouldn't even know how they died!
The situation in Hasath City had already been investigated. The person who had fallen into the hands of the Holy Knights was none other than Witch Rena, who had entrusted him to protect. As for the materials needed to repair the teleportation spell formation, they had also fallen into the hands of the Holy Knights.
Faced with such a situation, even Grimm could not help but scratch his head.
He had to save her! However, how and who to save was a matter of great importance!
If he could only choose between the two, Grimm would undoubtedly choose to snatch the materials for the teleportation spell formation.
Only by sending the materials and resources to the Witch Tower and having them repair the teleportation spell formation would he have a chance to return to the Magus World. As for Rena, if he was lucky, he would save her. If the risk was too great, he would just treat it as if she was already dead!
Therefore, the most important thing now was to understand the situation inside the Holy Light Chapel, where Rena was being held and where the materials were stored. Before obtaining detailed information, Grimm could only choose to lie low and silently gather information.
However, passively waiting was never in Grimm's character!
Before the Holy Knight appeared in Hasath City, he had to carry out a rescue operation. Otherwise, once the Holy Knight arrived, the higher-ups of Hasath City would definitely hand over the materials to him for safekeeping. At that time, no matter how bold Grimm was, he would not dare to rob a Grade 4 Holy Knight!
Time was of the essence, and he did not have the luxury of slowly infiltrating the Holy Light Chapel. As such, Grimm had already begun his operation on the outskirts of Hasath City the night he arrived.
Before entering the city, Remy, the Plague Spirit, was left alone by Grim!
The current Plague Poison Spirit was completely different from before. With his Grade 3 strength, he had the power to protect himself. The resonance between their souls allowed him to maintain a mysterious and subtle soul connection with Grimm, even though he was thousands of miles away.
Therefore, Grimm, who was in Hasath City, only needed to use his soul to send an order to Remy, who was hiding outside the city.
And so, a sudden plague swept through the outskirts of Hesath City!
