Chapter 69 Persistence

For the Battle Sisters, they have purified the entire temple as much as possible, and there is still the last step...

"That is to say, you want me to put this clock back on?"

Standing on the top of the bell tower, looking at the big clock in front of him, Duanmu Huai asked. Hearing his inquiry, the Battle Sister nodded.

"That's right, the next thing we have to do is to let the bell ring again throughout Mordheim, and let Sigma's shelter return to this cursed city. Now that the bell has been purified, the only thing to do next is Just hang it back up, but..."

It was no wonder that the fighting nuns would look for Duanmu Huai. Although this thing was not as big as the monk who beat the clock for a day in the temple, it was not something ordinary people could easily move. Only Duanmuhuai could lift it up and hang it up again.

For Duanmuhuai, this is of course easy, but... Should I do it?

Duanmuhuai glanced at the others, the battle nuns were waiting, and the captain of the empire just looked at him with a smile.

"Please, Iron Knight, I think this should not be difficult for you."

... A fool.

Duanmuhuai directly ignored the speech of the captain of the empire, and turned his gaze to the witch hunter. The latter noticed Duanmuhuai's gaze, froze for a moment, and then nodded silently.

"Okay, leave it to me."

Duanmuhuai didn't say anything more, just stretched out his hand, hugged the bronze bell in front of him, lifted it vigorously and hung it on the bell tower.

Then, three battle nuns came to the bell, knelt on the ground in a circle, and began to pray in low voices. Along with their prayers, the clock gradually began to emit a slight golden radiance. Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai took a step back while grabbing the hammer in his hand. He also saw the witch hunter lowered his hands and placed them by the hilt of his waist, staring unblinkingly at the battle nun in front of him.

Only the captain of the empire didn't seem to notice the small movements of the two of them at all, and just stared nervously at the scene in front of him.

Finally, amidst the prayers of the fighting nuns, the huge bronze bell became more and more dazzling, and then...

"clang---!"

The thick bell rang, echoing over the entire city of Mordheim. For a moment, everyone seemed to see a circle of golden ripples emerging from the body of the clock, spreading like ripples. At the same time, even the originally dark and gloomy atmosphere around him seemed to be reduced a lot.

"clang----!"

The bell rang again, louder than before, and at the same time, I saw that the rotten sarcoma and those weird chaotic things that originally covered the outer wall of the temple also retreated quietly under the ringing of the bell, as if melting under the sun The white snow disappeared without a trace.

"clang-----!"

With the third ringing of the bell, even the thick clouds that had been covering the sky above Mordheim trembled, and a ray of sunlight pierced through the clouds like a sharp sword and shone on the temple. Although it only lasted for a moment, everyone can feel that the temple at this moment is completely different from before.

It wasn't until the ceremony was over that everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the captain of the empire hurriedly sent someone to report the matter to General Pastor who was behind. After hearing the news, General Pastor also heaved a sigh of relief. After all, they will have a protracted battle in this cursed city. Without the protection of the gods, this operation may fail before it even begins. up.

But now, the temple has been taken back, and the glory of Sigmar shines on it again. It can be said that this is already a start worthy of celebration.

However, it is not time to open champagne yet. The reappearance of the Temple of Sigma will inevitably attract the attention of other hidden forces in the city of Mordheim. It can even be said that the Temple of Sigma, which is activated again now, is like It's a piece of cheese in a mouse's nest, and everyone wants to come up and take a bite.

So Pastor immediately sent someone to be in charge of opening the road connecting the Sigma Temple, so that more soldiers could enter the temple for rest and defense. shrine.

In fact, others would, without his telling.

Although Sigma's blessing looks very good and powerful, but such a big movement, anyone who is not blind can see it. And for the forces currently in the city of Mordheim, the recovery of the Temple of Sigmar is definitely the last thing they want to see. So it is conceivable that they will definitely launch another attack on the Temple of Sigmar to completely eliminate this threat.

The Chaos Cultists have just been defeated, and there should be no more manpower in a short time. Necromancers and vampires are naturally restrained by Sigma, and they dare not come rashly. But this does not mean that there are no tough guys who come up to die. For example, some like to dig holes, have the same reproductive ability as cockroaches, and are treacherous and disgusting ratmen who are not afraid of losing their hands at all.

"I've had enough of these goddamn rats!"

Duanmuhuai raised the hammer and swung it down vigorously, smashing dozens of ratmen in front of him into pieces, but this was not enough at all. Not long after the Sigma Temple was revived, these damned rats seemed to smell something fishy General drilled over and launched an attack on the Sigma Temple frantically.

Soon, the battle group responsible for guarding the temple immediately fell into a dilemma.

The towering city walls can't stop the Ratman's attack at all, and these rats are good at climbing over walls and picking at doors. Not to mention that in the previous attack, Duanmu Huai smashed all the defensive gates "boldly" into pieces. I didn't expect the world's news to come so fast...In the blink of an eye, the attack and defense were switched, and the turn Now that they have realized the miserable situation of the Chaos believers before.

Sigma's blessing doesn't have much effect on the Ratmen. What's more, these Ratmen like to play tricks. They always hide in the ruins around the temple, and attack when Duanmuhuai and others are not paying attention. ——I have to say, these damn rats are really annoying.

It seems that some strong medicine will not work.

After successfully smashing the Ratman in front of him into a meat paste again, Duanmuhuai stepped back. At this moment, his body was already dripping with blood, and the power armor was covered with the flesh and blood of the Ratman, while Lorena was fighting with the Ratman. He also suffered a little injury during the battle, and is now cooperating with the defense under the cover of Augis. Melody stood on the roof of the temple, killing the Ratmen one after another, but after all, she was holding a sniper rifle instead of a Gatling, so it was useless against the Ratman's numerical advantage.

Only Fia is happily killing in front of her at this moment, she is like a ghost walking through the crowd of rats, and wherever she goes, a large number of rats fall to the ground——Anyway, she is not afraid of death, more death Don't drop it, just kill it.

But this is not enough.

The other two battle groups are still fighting hard at this moment. Although under the blessing of Sigma, everyone does not feel particularly tired, but if this continues, it is obviously only a matter of time before they follow in the footsteps of the followers of Chaos.

If so, don't blame me for being rude.

Seeing these annoying mice, Duanmuhuai also became ruthless. He swung his hammer and quickly opened the communication.

"Mia, can you hear me?"

"Yes, master, what are your orders?"

Soon, Miya's leisurely voice sounded from Duanmuhuai's ear.

"Load Hell Strike missiles, prepare air cover, and blow up these beasts for me!"

"Understood~~!"
