Chapter 82 - 67: Assault_1
Well, that’s assuming the other party is ordinary.
“BOOM!!!”
The massive heavy wooden doors shattered open under the fierce impact, and even the trucks and wooden boxes piled behind it were sent flying out, landing heavily on several unsuspecting unfortunate souls. This sudden change greatly surprised the Chaos Believers who were on guard. They quickly turned their heads to look towards the direction of the doors. At the same time, they saw a huge figure rushing out from the smoke, like an enraged bull charging towards them.
“ARGHHHH!!!”
Duanmu Huai smashed down with his hammer, sending the Chaos Believer in front of him tumbling to the ground. Following that, he kicked out and the next moment, the body of the Chaos Believer flew back like a piece of rag, hitting the wall and falling down, motionless.
“We’re under attack!!”
At this point, the other Chaos Believers responded, hastily raising their weapons and launching an attack on Duanmu Huai. However, Duanmu Huai didn’t even give them a glance. He swung his giant hammer, sending these people flying like bowling pins. At the same time, Ogis and Lorena also rushed in with Duanmu Huai, beginning to engage with the other Chaos Believers.
Of course, there was no need to mention Ogis. With her strength, all the Chaos Believers who dared to get in her way would be chopped up like steak in a matter of seconds. As for Lorena, she fought diligently. Before the battle, Duanmu Huai had already informed Lorena that the minds and souls of these Chaos Believers had fallen into Chaos and was completely twisted – there was no chance of saving them. Killing them was the only way, so she shouldn’t show them any sympathy.
At this moment, Lorena demonstrated her powerful combat abilities. Quite a few Chaos Believers who thought her easy to bully tried to cause her trouble, only for Lorena to swing her Sacred Book at them and knock them down within moments.
It’s noteworthy that Lorena’s way of fighting was rather peculiar. She basically engaged in close-quarter combat, but did not fight unarmed. Instead, she used the hefty Sacred Book in her hand to pummel people. According to Duanmu Huai, Lorena’s way of fighting should be categorised as “brick-style”. He had once been curious as to why Lorena chose this way of fighting. After all, the Sacred Book was both heavy and inconvenient – didn’t it hinder her during a fight?
In response, Lorena explained that the Sacred Book was not only a weapon, but also a holy artifact that purified those evil souls. It could purify their filthy souls and let them fall into tranquillity.
Good heavens, she had the whole package of extermination and purifying, sending you straight to heaven – truly, a Holy Priest…
Just like now, a low-ranking believer with a double-handed giant axe rushed towards Lorena, raising his axe high, trying to deal a deadly blow to the girl in front of him. Yet at the same time as his axe swung down, Lorena let out a yell, her right hand clutching the Sacred Book and she struck hard against the giant axe. The next moment, with a “thud”, the giant axe in his hand was sent flying, and he stumbled backward a few steps. Before the low-ranking believer recovered, he saw Lorena’s petite figure dash towards him, her left fist striking out and sending him onto his knees.
As the low-ranking believer raised his head again, what he saw was the girl holding the Sacred Book above her head, smashing it down onto his forehead — the last thing he ever saw.
“THUD—————!!”
The Chaos Believer fell face first onto the ground, his body jerking and then going still. At the same time, on a platform high in the distance, another low-ranking believer holding a bow and arrow was aiming at Lorena, getting ready to ambush her.
“BANG!!!”
But before he could let go of the arrow, with the sound of a gunshot, the next moment his head exploded like a watermelon. The headless body, spurting blood, twitched a few times before collapsing.
In the meantime, several hundred meters away on the roof, Merlot reached out her hand, forcefully pulling the bolt of her rifle. Then, she moved the muzzle again, aiming at her next target and pulled the trigger.
“BANG!!!”
The echo of the gunshot resounded in the city sky and lingered for some time.
“Who would’ve thought they were capable of this.”
Hearing the gunshots, the Imperial Captain couldn’t help but murmur. All the Chaos Believers who were originally guarding the back door of the temple had already mostly left, with only a few people standing still in their posts. Seeing this, a glint of light flashed in the Imperial Captain’s eyes, and then he spoke in a soft voice.
“Should we wait a bit longer…..”
But before the Imperial Captain could finish his sentence, a crossbow arrow shot out, piercing straight through the neck of a Chaos Believer not far away. The believer opened his mouth as if to say something, but fell to the ground before he could. At the same time, the Witch Hunter and his order, who had been hiding in the shadows of the ruins nearby, leapt out and rushed towards the temple. Seeing them spring into action, the Combat Nuns also tightened their grips on their war hammers and trailed after them.
