Chapter 79 Raid
"These people...are pretending to be the Crusaders?!"
The first thought that popped up in Miss Miranda's mind made her alert immediately.
She gestured to her three companions, and they quickly found a pile of debris that was not easy to be discovered, hid behind it and observed secretly.
"Someone in the lower city dared to use the name of the Crusaders to threaten the citizens, openly break in, and even hurt people!"
"How dare they!"
In the doctrine of the Glorious God, the reputation of the Crusaders is sacred and inviolable.
This team has been trained to fight against the evil gods, not to participate in the struggle between the secular world, and will not interfere with the lives of ordinary people.
The reputation of the Crusaders has been accumulated slowly over a long period of time.
In any place where the Glorious Gospel spreads, when people see the team wearing silver armor and holding the battle flag with the emblem of the Glorious Blade, they are willing to take the initiative to provide them with clues and help, because everyone knows that this team is different from other armies, and their only target is the evil god.
Therefore, anything that could damage the reputation of the Crusaders is a serious crime in the Glorious God Church.
If someone reports this kind of behavior of pretending to be a Crusaders to do evil to the Glorious God Church, and it is verified to be true, the impostor will at least be arrested and sentenced to decades of hard labor as punishment.
In Miranda's mind, the Crusaders are also a symbol of holiness. The members risk their lives to fight against the evil gods. How can such a noble existence be impersonated at will!
Witnessing these impostors threatening others in the name of the Crusaders investigating the evil gods, Miranda said she couldn't stand it:
"This, this, this... blasphemy! It cannot be tolerated!"
Miranda secretly came to the lower city to investigate the clues of the divine warning. In order to preserve the exact evidence, she also brought a crystal provided by the Magic Hermitage to the Crusaders.
After the crystal is activated, it can record the nearby images for a certain period of time and save them in the crystal.
As long as the magic power is injected, it can be activated again and the recorded images can be projected.
Unexpectedly, she has not found the evidence about the evil god.
Instead, she saw a group of guys "pretending to be crusaders" first.
Miranda carefully activated the crystal and aimed it at Brandon from a distance, recording him wearing the disguised crusader armor and dragging the guards away from the Crimson Mercenary Base.
"Let's go! Let's go back to the Crusader base and tell them that someone is pretending to be a crusader in the lower city... Wait, wait, something seems wrong?!"
Just as Miranda was about to close the recording crystal, she immediately returned to the base to report the news.
The scene in front of her stunned her again:
After receiving Reina's signal, the other believers of the Seeking Knowledge Sect immediately appeared from their hiding places.
This was a premeditated surprise attack, so they had plenty of time to prepare various bonuses before the fight to minimize the losses.
After so many fights, the believers of Norwen also analyzed the characteristics of the Blood Fang Gang.
The evil god power received by the Blood Fang Gang is mainly to strengthen the body, which will significantly improve their ability to resist blows and powerless attacks.
Therefore, reducing the physical damage received has become a highly profitable countermeasure.
The priests, who had the smallest number of followers, were busy.
"Brilliant Radiance, Tough Shield, Attach!"
One after another, [Divine Word: Shield] was cast on warriors and stealth followers who needed to engage the enemy in close combat.
A small, rotating milky white light shield appeared around them.
This meant that they were being protected by the power of divine magic.
During the effective time of [Divine Word: Shield], if attacked, the light shield will automatically manifest to help offset a certain amount of damage.
Far away.
If confusion can be visualized as question marks, then Miranda's entire brain must be filled with question marks at this moment.
She naturally recognized the divine magic [Divine Word: Shield] at the first time.
This is a unique blessing for priests who believe in the God of Radiance!
Only one of a kind!
Only believers who are determined in their hearts and recognized by the great Lord of Radiance have the opportunity to obtain the qualification to use the "Divine Word" series of divine magic.
In Miranda's cognitive worldview.
Being able to cast this divine spell means that the other party is definitely an unquestionable loyal believer of the Radiance, and is willing to walk the world and spread the Lord's gospel.
This made her strongly doubt her previous judgment that "these guys pretended to be the Crusaders to threaten innocent citizens and hurt others."
"Did I misunderstand something?"
"Not sure, let's wait and see!"
...
Everything is ready before the fight.
Brandon still put on the light armor of the Crusaders that was hastily made, holding the crowbar that he was comfortable with, and tiptoed into the small building where the Blood Red Mercenaries were stationed.
Reina had already taken her companions in the stealth to get a rough idea of the layout of the building.
A two-story stone building.
On the first floor lived dozens of newcomers who were integrated into the Blood Fang Gang, and they were still asleep at this moment.
The second floor was the real backbone of the Blood Red Mercenaries, where the leader and several core members were.
"The raid plan is simple." Pete lowered his voice and assigned tasks to everyone.
"Leina, take the stealth fighters and clear the first floor first!"
"Kill as many as you can without causing any disturbance."
"If we are discovered, we will turn assassination into assault. Mages, start bombing and make a quick decision!"
"Brandon, take the fighters to block the stairs!"
"Before your defense line is breached, we will clean up all the ordinary members on the first floor, and then deal with their leader together!"
"Priests and friends are in the center to provide support, pay attention to everyone's health status, and be ready for treatment at any time."
"As for the rangers, protect your fellow priests and don't let anyone get close to them!"
Rena nodded and gave a gentle greeting, and the stalkers quickly entered the stealth state under the cover of shadow energy.
Due to the insufficiently bright lighting environment in the room, only their blurry outlines could be seen.
Slowly opening the door, Reina quickly glanced inside.
The six members of the Blood Red Mercenaries all have the word "sleep" in their status in the information provided by the [Mystery of All Things] magic.
Reina noticed that if you look carefully, these guys also have weird sarcomas on their necks similar to those of the Bloodtooth Gang leader Evan. However, they are not as obvious as Evan's. Currently they are only slightly bulging.
"laugh!"
The polished dagger was fairly sharp and sliced through the sarcoma, and what spewed out was no longer bright red blood, but gurgling yellow-brown pus!
The ichor exudes a disgusting rancid smell. Reina decisively increases her strength. The shadow energy attaches to the dagger and launches [Sneak Attack] to hit the target!
At the same time, several other fellow stalkers also killed their respective targets!
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
There is no need to be merciful when dealing with these guys who have been contaminated by the power of the evil god!
