Chapter 904 The cross at the church door
looks at the actual situation.
The church suffered almost no damage at the beginning of the war.
As a religious organization with a wide range of influence, the church enjoys a good reputation and reputation in both Entrod and Grid. Therefore, damage can be largely avoided in such extreme situations.
But this is war after all.
No matter how safe a place is, it will become unsafe over time.
That's what Ronald saw at the moment.
In front of the well-built church, a group of people dressed in different styles, who were obviously rebels, blocked the door. Some of them pointed their weapons in front of them in an extremely dangerous posture.
The reason why this group of people who were already quite excited did not move on was the girl standing at the door of the church.
What a coincidence, this is Ronald's old acquaintance - Audlett.
This makes sense when you think about it.
The supervisory nun received the order and came to Entrod to support the work of cleaning up the summoned creatures. Ronald also had a brief encounter with her during the Arctic expedition.
After the other party's work in the North Pole is completed, they will naturally return to the nearest Waterfall City Church to start other work again.
I just didn't expect that after Ronald returned to Waterfall City, he would see each other again under such circumstances.
"..."
"Mr. Ronald?"
At this time, Ronald felt the corner of his clothes being pulled.
He looked back and saw Phil looking at him nervously.
"What should I do? It seems like it's not safe here anymore."
From Phil's perspective, this is indeed the case.
But Ronald saw things differently.
With Ronald's keen perception, he could confirm that the rebels surrounding the church were all ordinary people. Even though they had serious expressions and obvious threats, Ronald did not feel anything other than the guns in their hands. It contains any traces of the caster.
——Look at the church.
Ronald knew this Audlett's ability.
He didn't think that the group of rebels surrounding the church could pose any threat to the church under the protection of Audlett.
"Let's take a look at the situation over there. It should be over soon."
"..."
Ronald comforted Phil in a low voice, and then continued to move closer with the little girl.
At the same time, the two groups of people at the door of the church were very nervous, so they failed to notice Ronald and Phil approaching in the dark.
"Sister, you'd better get out of the way!"
"We are chasing a group of government lackeys. Do you want to stand on the church's side and choose to help those hateful guys?"
The captain of the resistance team was quite calm.
Although he stared at Audlett in front of him with angry eyes, he did not launch a direct and decisive attack, but scolded him from his own position:
"We are an army representing the people of Entrod!"
"I advise you. You'd better think carefully about whether you want to continue standing here to stop us!"
Audlett did not waver at this scolding.
The nun stood at the door of the church with her hands stretched out, her whole body standing motionless like a cross:
"The church does not act with any political stance." "
As long as they are innocent people with good intentions, no matter which party they belong to, as long as they come to seek Asylum, we will treat everyone equally."
What Audlett said was neither arrogant nor humble.
At the same time, it also expresses the church's consistent neutral stance.
But when these words came to the commander of the resistance army, they naturally turned into naked resistance:
"So - you have acquiesced that you are harboring the government's lackeys?" "
And now you want to stop us from going inside and uncovering those abominable people. Guy!"
While speaking, the leader of the resistance army had already approached Audlett.
However, the nun still did not waver and said in the same tone as before:
"It is my duty to protect the church and the people who come here to take refuge."
"I won't let you in."
Bang!
Faced with Audlett's refusal to cooperate, the leader of the resistance took action without hesitation.
However, despite taking action, the rebel leader still exercised restraint.
Instead of raising the gun and pulling the trigger at the nun in front of him, he swung the other end of the gun butt and smashed it into Audlett's face.
...
This time it hit Audlett hard on the face.
The nun's head was immediately swung in the opposite direction by the resistance commander's powerful swing.
But soon, Audlett unswervingly returned to her posture.
But at this moment, a very obvious mark was left on the nun's originally beautiful face, and blood flowed from the wound on her face. come out.
"..."
Ronald, who saw this scene on the other side, widened his eyes.
He couldn't understand the current situation at all - why didn't Audlett resist?
If the time had been set four or five months ago, then it would have made sense for Audlett to act this way due to the mysterious confidentiality principle.
But at this time, with the destruction of the wizards of Barrier Mountain, this rule is no longer important. Even if you think about it carefully, these resistance forces also have signs of wizards helping activities.
So when faced with such a person...
Audlett didn't fight back?
This makes absolutely no sense!
The supervisory nun in Ronald's memory was a specialized person in a huge organization like the church who specialized in combat. She would even be responsible for fighting against the holders of the original code.
Compare Greed's combat capabilities.
Even if the elite investigators are in a head-on battle, they are definitely no match for Audlett!
However, he is such a powerful magician.
When faced with an ordinary person who only held a gun, he actually chose to be beaten passively?
"Sister, get out of the way!"
"Do you really want to die here?"
At this time, the expression of the rebel commander could not be calm anymore.
What he wanted to do was to find out the government lackeys in the church behind the other party. His original intention was not to endanger Audlett's life in front of him. Otherwise, just now, he would not have chosen the butt of the gun, but would have just shot and finished!
It is a pity that Audlett still did not give in.
The nun stood at the door of the church with her arms open, letting the blood on her face drip onto the black nun's uniform on her chest, her expression showing no change.
"I'm sorry, I won't get out of the way."
"Okay! Since you insist on seeking death, then I will help you, you idiot!"
At this point, there is almost no possibility of negotiation between the two parties.
The leader of the resistance took a few steps back, then pointed the gun in his hand at Audlett's head.
"I only count three times!"
"One, two,..."
"Stop!"
At this critical moment, Ronald finally couldn't hold himself back, so he walked out from the other side.
It was just different from the picture he originally expected.
Just before Ronald spoke, someone on the other side spoke to stop the rebel leader.
