Chapter 174: Arrival

Just then, the captain led the knights over here with a fierce momentum.

Though they were only thirty people, they valued quality over quantity.

The captain is of the seventh-tier, and the knights are mid-level Professionals of the fourth, fifth, and sixth tiers.

"That is…" The captain looked at the distant Netherworld Flower, his pupils shrinking, "Indeed, it’s the Church of the Lord of Eternity. Damn it, these vermin from the shadows are still active."

"Captain, is this the Netherworld Flower in its full form, or is it still growing?" one knight asked; "Monsters coming out of the dungeon, being incomplete? "

"Hmph, this must be the enemy’s plot!" the captain gritted his teeth, "They must have seen the Archbishop as too strong, so they had to release this Netherworld Flower."

"There’s another possibility that this is part of the enemy’s ritual, these summoning rituals often end in failure, and it’s unclear where these cultists find the courage to keep trying to call upon the gods."

Creating the BOSS was Karoso’s way of optimizing the situation he faced at the beginning.

The more monsters there are, the more variables there are.

Even if this Netherworld Flower absorbs Poisoner to the eighth level, it is still a living target and won’t pose any harm in the short term, it will just keep absorbing the Poisoner.

As for who will solve it, that has nothing to do with Honey Karoso.

"Captain, what should we do first, deal with this Netherworld Flower or…" the knight asked.

"First, go help the Archbishop. Facing an eighth-tier cultist and a large group of monsters, even the Archbishop may not last long," the captain ordered. "All Pastors, remember to help the Archbishop recover his magic power."

"Yes!"

The knights and the accompanying Pastors radiated golden light, like a beacon, rushing towards the Government Affairs Hall.

……

"Sure enough, people from the Knights Templar have also arrived," Teresa’s face lit up, no longer wanting to ask if Karoso was being stupid.

Nobody’s perfect. After Karoso miscalculated, Teresa felt a bit less pressure. Otherwise, Karoso had been too precise with everything.

Little did she know, this was all part of the plan.

While some plans carried great risks, they were still within Karoso’s control.

"Everyone, slowly move towards the direction of the town hall," Teresa commanded. "Try to use sniper rifles to injure the enemy as much as possible, shoot and move, focus on guerrilla tactics, and avoid direct confrontation with the enemy!"

……

Jenny and Sophia saw the whole situation had become chaotic, and couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

"Miss, it seems like we can leave now," Jenny said, looking at the scene in front of her with a happy expression.

All the Poisoners below have run away, and the ghouls are in chaos, but no one is paying attention here at the moment.

"Let’s run away now."

After Sophia finished speaking, she said to Jenny, "You go down first."

"No, Miss, you first. I’ll cover our backs," Jenny quickly said.

"They will definitely send people over, we can’t stay in the bathroom for too long," Sophia said anxiously. "You go first…"

"Oh no!"

Jenny grabbed Sophia and aimed at the wall, with a large cross appearing in her hand.

Bang!

With the cross, she knocked a big hole in the wall, then picked up Sophia and leaped outside.

Bang, bang, bang…

The loud knocking sound began.

"What’s going on inside, Miss Sophia?"

The cultists who thought this place was safe before, considering the large number of Poisoners and ghouls outside, had guards inside and out, thought they were safe as houses.

But now, things were different. With the arrival of the Templars and the summoning of the Netherworld Flower to call the Poisoners, everything happened too suddenly. Frank didn’t have time to react.

Frank was in the office, staring fixedly outside.

Half of his face had started to decay, but he paid no attention to it at all. Instead, he felt a powerful magic surging through his body.

New cards inexplicably appeared in his deck one by one, and now he had become a standard cultist, possessing the power bestowed by the Lord of Eternity.

"Where is the backup? Where is it?"

Frank answered a call in the office and shouted loudly across to the other side.

"Support can’t pass now…"

The image displayed on the communication device was very blurry.

In the scene, a boy and a girl, a pair of twins, were skillfully using various occupational skills.

They were battling against a strong man standing at three meters high, wielding a Sword Shield and roaring.

The strong man, as if going crazy, was trying to rush towards the government, but was being firmly held back by the two.

"Don’t you have servants there?" Frank yelled.

"We do, but they also have reinforcements!" the person on the other end of the call chuckled bitterly.

Several teams in the image were surrounding Null and『』in combat, helping the two defend against ghoul Poisoner and other creatures like skeletons.

"Go save Sophia!" 『』 suddenly shouted, "Her role is even bigger than we imagined!"

"Okay!"

A young knight, upon hearing this, led his mercenaries in the direction of the Government Affairs Hall.

If netizens see this, they will understand that the freedom movement has reached a crucial moment!

In the entire freedom movement, both Null and 『』 and Sophia’s storylines are the main focus. Whether it’s Celica or the other squads, they are all operating around these two main threads. Apart from Russell, Karoso has always been operating outside of the main story.

Currently, netizens are seeing things from Karoso’s point of view, which helps fill in many details of this plot.

"Damn it, our reinforcements haven’t arrived but theirs are on the way?" Frank’s expression changed, "I request to join the battle, I want to serve the main cause faithfully!"

"Keep an eye on Sophia, she’s more important than anyone. Our ritual has reached a critical moment. If we hold on for one more day, she can bring about the arrival of the main one!"

Before the person could finish speaking, there was a loud bang as a shell came down from the sky, turning him to dust.

Before the communication ended, Frank saw the final scene.

Suddenly, countless steel warships appeared in his view.

"They… are here." The Magic Stone in Frank’s hand dropped to the ground. "Do we have to hold on for one more day?"

……

Red lowered the telescope and loudly commanded, "Fire at all the ghouls on the shore!"

Boom! Boom!

Countless shells rained down on the shore, causing the visible reduction of ghoul Poisoners and skeletons.

"President Null, President 『』!" Red shouted through a military megaphone. "Try to evacuate more civilians and those resisting the ghouls."

Null and 『』 looked at the large fleet approaching in the distance, their heads buzzing.

Look at the flag above…

Canglang Province, Presea Kingdom?

Are they sending troops?

"Are Karoso and Teresa okay?" yelled Reed.

As long as Null and 『』 say that Karoso and Teresa are dead…

The carrier bombers will be deployed to cover the entire City of Freedom with artillery fire!
