It was impossible for the people downstairs to not notice what was going on upstairs.
"Teresa! What's going on? What happened? " When Suria arrived, she saw the sorceress lying in a pool of blood and the corpse of the Ratman Assassin with his head smashed open.
A green Dimension Stone dagger had been plunged deep into Teresa's chest. Teresa had killed the Ratman Assassin in the nick of time, but she was also badly injured. The Dimension Stone dagger had pierced through her chest, and blood was flowing out of the wound.
"Teresa?" Suria hurriedly signaled for her maid, Sylvia, to come up. The female knight took out the best medicine and checked that the dagger did not affect the heart. She then carefully pulled the dagger out of Teresa's body to stop the bleeding. She then applied the medicine specially made by the Lake God to the wound. "Damn it, how did this happen?"
Sylvia pulled the dagger out of the sorceress's shoulder and applied the medicine. The dagger had pierced deep into the sorceress's chest. Fortunately, Teresa had managed to move her body at the last moment, and the Ratman Assassin's dagger did not pierce her heart.
"Oh, no!" Teresa's face was already pale, and it was even worse after the dagger was removed. She groaned in pain. "Oh no, the Frostrampart … I can't maintain the Frostrampart any longer."
"Frostrampart? That's not important right now. Hurry, take Miss Teresa to the room downstairs! " The female knight immediately shook her head, her expression turning cold and serious. "Laing has entrusted you and Miss Veronica to me. I can't let anything happen to you!"
"But, without the Frostrampart, the Ratman …" Teresa wanted to say something, but Suria had already signaled for the servants to come up. Marchioness Winford and Countess Glamorgan were now acting like great nobles. The servants lifted the sorceress onto the wooden plank.
The church was huge. Suria knew it would be difficult to hide from everyone, but she could not care less now.
After two minutes, the injured Theresa was placed on the bed in the small room in the church. It was the bed where Veronica had rested before. The sorceress was in a terrible condition. The Dimension Stone was very poisonous. Theresa's right arm was already injured when she broke through the city wall. Now that she was assassinated by the Ratman, she had almost completely lost all her combat strength after pulling out the dagger.
"Teresa, how long can your Frostrampart?"
"Fifteen minutes at most."
"I'll take care of the Ratman! You should rest quickly. "After Sulia said a few words, she immediately left with the servants.
"Aiyoyo, little princess Jialan, how did you end up like this? Look at you! Do you still look like a proud peacock? " Veronica sat in front of the wooden table. She did not look well either. Glancing at the sorceress's injured state, Garland sneered. "You broke your wing before you even took off?"
"I don't want to argue with you. It won't make me feel better, Veronica!" Teresa felt a piercing pain in her chest. The sorceress was in so much pain that she curled up like a prawn on the bed. She kept praying that she was not poisoned, but Teresa knew it was impossible. How could the cunning Skaven Ratman not poison his dagger?
Veronica was not in a good condition either. Her internal organs were injured, and her magic was exhausted in the previous battle. She had only recovered a little. While she was mocking Teresa, her hands were quickly concocting a potion.
Soon, a green potion was concocted in her hands. Veronica poured the clear green liquid into a glass bottle and placed it in front of Teresa. "You're right. Arguing with me won't make you feel better, but this will. This is my special healing potion. Drink it quickly, or you won't last more than three days."
Teresa, who was already in a daze, glared at Veronica. She reluctantly reached out her left hand and took the glass bottle. She drank the green liquid in a few gulps.
The healing potion's effect was extraordinary. Within a minute, the sorceress felt her head clear. The pain in her wounds was relieved, and the poison in her body was suppressed.
"I owe you. I'll pay you back later." Teresa knew that ordinary healing potions could not have such an effect. Veronica must have used some special and precious medicine to concoct this potion.
"Oh, if you really want to repay me, swear that you won't see Laing again." Veronica squinted at her. "That's the most sincere thing you can do. Can you do it?"
"…" Teresa did not want to talk anymore.
"We're now two patients on the same bed." Veronica sighed. "My swordsmanship is not so weak. Without magic, I'm nothing. As for you, it's better if you don't go out with your injuries."
"Leave everything to Madam Suria and Laing. Laing … he will never let us down."
"Okay."
…
Outside the room, Suria tried her best to keep everyone calm. The female knight frowned and looked at the situation in the church.
After a night of fierce fighting, the human soldiers were very tired. Sulia gave the order to abandon the position of the stairs at the entrance of the church. Everyone retreated into the church and prepared to defend the last line of defense.
The Rat Men also stopped their attack. They seemed to be waiting for something. Suria knew what the Rat Men were waiting for. The female knight's face was as cold as ice, showing her stunning beauty.
She asked the two Rick guards, the captain of the Empire, Huber, and the demon hunter Abel to come over for a meeting.
"What's going on, Madam Suria? What happened? I heard from the soldiers that Miss Teresa is injured? "The Rick guard Rudolph and Wagner had fought for a night. Both of them had dark circles under their eyes.
"The Rat Men sent assassins. Miss Teresa is injured. The ice wall is about to fail. We have to face the full attack of the Rat Men," the female knight said calmly. "Tell all the soldiers to prepare for battle. The last moment is coming. Hold on, hold on. The emperor knows about Helmgard's situation. We've been holding on for a day and a night."
"We should rush out and face the enemy head-on. I will ride on my mount and welcome a glorious death." Rudolph was the first to suggest. This Rick guard recruit was optimistic. He said loudly, "I am a glorious Rick guard. If I want to die, I want to die on the charge."
"Death is not scary. I only have battles in my life. From the last battle to the next, my soul will rise to heaven and continue to fight with Emperor Charlemagne." The demon hunter Abel raised the sword in his hand.
"Alright, damn the Rat Men. Let's fight it out with them!"
"We can't rush out." Sulia shook her head calmly. The female knight then turned her gaze to the panicking refugees in the hall.
Everyone was silent. Yes, if these people rushed out, who would protect the refugees?
"The only choice is to stay in this church and fight to the last moment."
Outside the church, the bell rang. The Rat Men had found that the ice wall was melting. The Skaven Warlord, Ossaid Abyss, had finally decided to launch an all-out attack.
It was already early in the morning. If they waited until the sun rose, it would be too late!
The Rat Men's battering ram was hitting the door.
With a dull thud, the bolt of the church's door was deformed. The soldiers raised tables and chairs to block it. "Hold it!"
Thud! The soldiers screamed and flew out, but they quickly got up and blocked the door.
But it was useless. The ceiling, the dome, the windows, and the basement were all filled with the Rat Men's chatter.
"They! They're coming in! Wuwuwuwu! "
"It's over!"
"Merciful God of Justice! Please give us salvation! "
The refugees in Helmgat heard the dull thud of the church's door.
It was the Skaven Rat Men's battering ram hitting the door.
The end was here.
Sulia drew the Sword of Lyonassi from her waist. The sword was burning with flames. The female knight raised the sword in her hand, then turned around and stood in front of the refugees without hesitation. "Everyone who is willing to fight for the last time! Please follow me! "
As soon as she finished speaking, the church's door collapsed. Countless Storm Rats and several Rat Trolls rushed in from the door. "Humans! Hairless things! Diedie！”
Many Rat Men fell from the ceiling, the basement of the church, the windows, and the walls. More and more Rat Men poured into the church from all directions!
Suria was the first to rush in. The female knight's figure was like a goddess descending to earth. She killed dozens of Skaven Rat Men in an instant. The elite Storm Rats were torn apart by her sword like rags.
In two rounds, the Rat Men's frontline commander was killed by the female knight.
The refugees hesitated for a while. They didn't know where the hot blood came from, but they raised their weapons. These refugees who had lost their families and belongings shouted and followed Suria into the battlefield.
"Kill! Kill these bastards! The Emperor's reinforcements will be here soon! " Two Rik Guards fought fiercely. Rudolph rushed up alone to block a dozen Rat Men. "Citizens of the Empire! Hold the line! "
"Hold the line!" The last remaining soldiers of Helmgard swarmed forward and engaged in a fierce battle with the Rat Men.
The last musketeers tilted their bullets at the Rat Men. When the barrels overheated, they threw away the muskets and pulled out the swords at their waists to fight the Rat Men. The great swordsmen clenched their swords with both hands and shouted the name of the Empire and Charlemagne. Behind them were the severely untrained militia, especially the spearmen and the swordsmen. These soldiers were a little shaken by the Rat Men, but they still joined the battle. They had no choice.
“die！ Die! "The Skaven Rat Men's faces became so disgusting.
"Kill! Kill! "The human faces in front of the Rat Men also became disgusting. The end of hairless things had arrived!
The Rat Men almost drowned all the humans in the church. Even the refugees picked up their weapons and fought with the Rat Men. The paladins sang hymns and joined the battle. The battle priests felt their hearts were shrouded by fear. They believed that the end had come. These battle priests chanted divine spells and rushed into the battlefield to kill the enemy bravely, ready to welcome their home.
The bravery of the humans greatly reduced the speed of the Rat Men's spread. There were strong human warriors falling every minute and every second, but no one regretted it. They knew that they had no way to escape.
Either victory or death.
The church turned into a slaughterhouse of flesh and blood. The flesh of humans and Rat Men were piled up together. It seemed that everything had disappeared, and only the enemies in front of them were left.
A few old men grabbed benches and smashed them in the Rat Men's faces. They were immediately pierced by spears.
Children used stones and candlesticks to fight the Rat Men.
However, there were too many Skaven Rat Men. The human defense line was collapsing.
Suria fought in the Rat Men. The female knight's armor was stained with blood, and her long golden curly hair was stained with minced meat. Although Suria's equipment was very powerful, and the Sword of Lyonasai could cut through iron like mud and destroy all magic blessings, the female knight's figure was gradually swallowed by the Rat Men. The servants she brought from home died one after another in the battle. Only her old butler, Henderson, and her maid, Sylvia, were left by her side.
When Suria finally killed a wave of Rat Men, she found that she was surrounded. Five Rat Men surrounded her in the middle. Obviously, the Rat Men had discovered her existence.
The female knight felt her heart pounding. She gripped the hilt of the Sword of Lyonasai tightly and chanted the name of the Goddess of the Lake. She wanted to draw power for herself.
This was the first time she had fought alone.
In Suria's life, she first fought with her father, then followed her brother, and then followed her husband.
She knew that she could not fail. She knew the responsibility on her shoulders. For the first time, Suria understood the importance of being a commander. Her safety represented the morale of the army. Her every action would determine the direction of the war.
Then come at me! Suria held the sword with both hands and rushed toward the first Rat Man on her left. "In the name of the Goddess! Judge you! "
"Roar!" The Rat Man released a terrifying roar. It landed on all fours and rushed toward Suria!
"Die!" Suria's sea blue eyes were filled with the anger of the Goddess of the Lake. She flipped the Sword of Lyonasai in her hand and jumped lightly onto the Rat Man's back. Then, she pierced the Rat Man's shoulder from behind.
"Get up!" Sulia raised her sword, and the Rat Troll felt the pain and hurriedly got up. The remaining four Rat Troll Troll crashed into its body. The female knight's sword fell, and the Rat Troll Troll's head fell to the ground. The monster created by the Rat Men kept twitching, and gradually stopped breathing.
"For the Goddess!" Soon, the second Rat Troll fell to the ground under Sulia's sword. The tip of the female knight's sword pierced through the Rat Troll's right leg, causing blood to spurt out. The Rat Troll fell to the ground powerlessly. It reached out to attack the female knight, but it hit the Rat Troll beside it, causing it to fall as well.
The Sword of Lyonasai then pierced through the back of the second Rat Man's head.
The remaining three Rat Men looked at each other and rushed toward the female knight. "Golden-Furred thing! Killkill！”
Suria moved to the side. She swung her sword and cut off the arm of a Rat Man. The female knight was about to finish it off when she felt a huge force coming from her shoulder. She groaned and was sent flying by a Rat Man sneakily attacking her from the side. The Rat Man slammed her into a bookcase.
The bookcase collapsed, and Suria was drowned by the books on the ground.
The female knight quickly got up from the ground and blocked the Rat Man's attack with her sword. Then, she stabbed the Rat Man's face with her sword. The Blessing of the Goddess of the Lake was released on the sword, and the Rat Man's head was instantly charred black. The third Rat Man fell.
Before Suria could pull out the Sword of Lyonasai, she was hit in the back. Her Vibranium Plate Armor shook, but it managed to withstand the powerful attack. Suria immediately turned around and pulled out a long halberd from the corpse of a Rat Man. She stabbed the halberd into the Rat Man's heart.
"Ow! Roar! "The halberd pierced through the Giant Rat Demon's body. The female knight gripped the halberd tightly. The Giant Rat Demon gripped the halberd tightly, trying to pull it out.
"Die!" Sulia brought the judgment of the Lake God. She used the last of her strength to stab the halberd into the filthy heart of the Rat Troll. The struggling Rat Troll's strength gradually weakened. The female knight then pulled out the Sword of Lyonnesse with one hand and chopped off the monster's head with one strike.
This was the fourth Rat Man.
The female knight felt a dull pain all over her body. She barely managed to push away the monster's corpse that was on top of her. Sulia had to thank Ryan's father for the gift. If it wasn't for the golden double-headed eagle wedding ring and the extremely sturdy protection of the plate armor, the female knight might have died long ago.
She stood up. Behind her, the last Rat Man was leading the Storm Rats toward the human's last line of defense. It seemed to be very surprised that the golden-haired thing was still alive. The Rat Man looked around Suria and didn't dare to go forward.
The female knight stood proudly among the thousands of rats like a Valkyrie on the battlefield. The four Rat Men's bodies showed the result.
The rats began to waver again. As usual, they showed signs of defeat again and were in a mess.
"Toot!" At this moment, outside the church, a loud horn sounded, crossing the burning Helmgard.
"Toot!"
The humans who were in the midst of a bitter battle suddenly heard the loud sound of a horn. Sulia subconsciously looked out of the window.
The bright sun shone through the window and lit up the interior of the church.
The sky was bright.
The Rat Man army was suddenly in chaos. A tall human figure rushed in from outside the church. He destroyed the Rat Man's attack with his own strength and then took his wife into his arms. "Suria, I'm here! Reinforcements are here! "
…
Outside the Church of Justice, 200 Brunswick Royal Griffin Knights, 200 Brunswick Praetorian Guards, 1,000 Empire Knights, and 3,000 great swordsmen were sweeping the Rat Man army like a hurricane. Emperor Karl-franz of the Empire was riding on the Griffin Death Claw. He was watching Helmgard burn. Then, the emperor raised his war hammer, Gail Maraz!
"Forward! For the Empire! For Charlemagne! For glory! "
