Chapter 546: Heresy "Knights......"
When the village chief greeted the knights of light, before he could finish a sentence, he was casually pushed away by the knights of light who had dismounted, and when he saw the wildebeest tied to the outside of the small hall, all explanations had become weak.
With the sound of swords unsheathed, the knights kicked open the door of the small hall, and when they saw the untidy and drunk Dark Knights, and the bride who had been stripped to only her underwear and was struggling, the Knights of Light led by him coldly spat out a word.
"Kill!"
It didn't take any elaborate orders or justifications, and everything in front of them was enough for the Knights of Light to wave their swords at those enemies without hesitation.
The drunken Dark Knight's resistance was almost zero, and their bodies were pierced by the sword as they struggled to draw their swords.
The splatters of blood and screams lasted only for a brief moment, and by the time the bewildered villagers came to their senses, a knight of light had helped the curtained bride out.
The groom, who had been held by the villagers, broke free at this time and rushed to take the bride, and the villagers also let out cheers for his rescue.
However, just as the villagers escaped with joy, the leader of the previous Light Knight slowly walked up to the village chief and pointed the long sword in his hand at the village chief, and the villagers looked at this scene with their mouths wide open in cheers, and then the words of the Light Knight made the villagers feel like they had fallen into an ice cave again.
"An hour ago, you told me that no Dark Knights had passed through here, but now these Dark Knights are in your village and drunk, and if you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I will punish you according to the laws of the Kingdom of Light, and those who harbor the dark people in time of war will be hanged."
The Knight of Light looked at the village chief with cold eyes and said, his words made all the villagers feel extremely desperate.
The people of both the Dark Realm and the Bright Realm are extremely dangerous to them, and the villages in the cracks of this kind of war, if they want to survive, they must have both ends of the snake and the rat.
"My lord, we can't help it, when those guys from the dark kingdom fled to the village, they forced us with their swords, if we don't help them, then we will be killed, even the gods of light have never asked us to give up our lives easily, I swear, our hearts have always been towards the light!"
The village chief looked extremely sad at this time, he raised his hand and swore that he was completely persecuted, as the same light believer, he also wanted to kill those dark knights, but in front of the lives of everyone in the village, he had to be aggrieved.
After hearing the village chief's words, the Knight of Light showed a contemplative look, although the village chief had indeed deceived them before, but if it was according to what the village chief said, it was indeed excusable.
And as the Knights of Light, their duty is to protect the people of Light, and these villagers are threatened by the Dark Knights, and they have their own responsibilities.
If they had been able to catch up with the fleeing Dark Knights as soon as possible, this would not have happened, and thinking of this, the anger in the hearts of the Light Knights present had subsided a lot.
"What happened, is it really what you said?"
The Knight of Light confirmed to the village chief.
"My lord, I swear by my faith that every winter I will make a pilgrimage to the temple in the neighboring county and fast, and the gods can prove the firmness of my faith!"
The village chief swore to the Knight of Light.
"Okay, I believe you, I'm sorry, I didn't catch those villains as soon as possible to make you wronged, and it is really unfair to deal with this matter harshly with the law.
Well, let's treat it as if it didn't happen, and you continue to prepare for your wedding celebrations, while we return with the corpses of the Dark Knights.
After saying that, the Knight of Light commanded his companions to tie the dead Dark Knight to their horned horses, and then the wildebeests were slowly led by the Knight of Light out of the village.
This was supposed to be the end of the matter, but a kind Knight of Light, when he saw the frightened bride and groom, raised his hand and unleashed a wide range of tranquil spells on them.
The scope of the good-hearted Light Knight's magic includes almost all the villagers who saw them off at the entrance of the village, and this kind of low-level magic that has no harm but allows people to get rid of fear and calm their minds should not have caused any bad effects.
But what no one expected was that when the magic shrouded the heads of those villagers, a black light appeared on half of the villagers' bodies, and at the same time, the expressions of these villagers became extremely painful.
"Heresy!"
The Knights of Light yelled in annoyance, and before the panicked villagers could flee, they were struck down by the Knights of Light with their unsheathed swords.
The Knights of Light then sealed the exit of the village, and then they captured all the villagers in the square in the center of the village, and tested them one by one for their faith.
After the results of the appraisal came out, the Light Knights were extremely angry, and in the village of more than 200 people, half of the villagers believed in the Dark Demon God, and this level of belief could no longer be said to be mixed in with the spies, it can be said that this village was openly allowing the villagers of the same village to believe in the evil Demon God.
What makes the Light Knights even more intolerable is that many believers of the Gods of Light have chosen to combine with the believers of the Dark Demon God, and this naked heretical behavior is constantly challenging the limits of the Light Knights' rationality.
"There is no need for any more trials for such heretical villages, it would be nice to burn them all along with these heretics."
In the square, the words of the Knight of Light made all the villagers terrified, and many villagers rushed into the encirclement of the Knight of Light, and loudly begged for mercy from the leader of the Knight of Light.
"My lord, we are just here to survive, we have never hurt others!"
The villagers didn't feel that there was anything wrong with them, they did it purely to survive when either side of the light or darkness occupied the vicinity, and of course the village later began to use their advantage to resell and smuggle back and forth between the light and dark countries, but they never did any harm to the people of light or darkness.
However, these arguments of the villagers could not impress the angry Knights of Light, who had been deceived twice in a row in one day, and it was absolutely impossible for them to give each other a third chance.
No matter how the villagers argued, it was undeniable that there were a large number of dark believers among them, and the statues of the dark demon gods that were found in the villagers' rooms made the Light Knights want to burn the village down immediately.
The wailing villagers couldn't stop the powerful Light Knights, these knights who were protected by the power of the gods of light could not be matched even by professionals of the same level, these ordinary people were tied up in the village by the Light Knights, and everything that could be ignited in the village was doused with fire oil by the Light Knights.
Amid a terrible cry, the stake to cleanse the evil was ready, and the leader of the Knights of Light personally took up the torch and prepared to be the first to execute.
"I am the guardian of the light on the earth, and we bear all the sins of killing.
Sinners make a final confession for your blasphemy against the light, and perhaps you will have a chance to be redeemed by our Lord after death.
The Knight of Light said coldly to the village chief, who was tied to the cross, and then he threw the torch in his hand at the pile of wood and hay under the village chief.
The firewood and hay that had been left for the whole winter immediately burst into flames when they saw the fire, and the village chief, who had already burst into tears, closed his eyes in despair at this time.
Just as the village chief began to feel the burning pain in his body, a young woman's voice suddenly came from the sky.

"Listen to the Knight of Light below!
You have violated the humanitarian conventions of war!
Stop your actions now, or we will impose force sanctions on you!
"A steel battleship with a length of forty meters appeared in the sky, and the slender silver-white battleship was full of sci-fi beauty.
However, no one can ignore the deterrent power of this battleship, and the muzzles of the energy cannons protruding from the belly of the battleship are already shining and dancing with the light of arcs as they are fully charged.
As the hatches on both sides of the battleship opened, twenty soldiers wearing power armor that the Knight of Light had never seen before jumped directly from a height of hundreds of meters, and just as they slammed to the ground, a girl with gorgeous and dazzling long golden hair appeared in the middle of the village at some point.
When the girl came to the ground, she threw a water bomb to extinguish the flames under the village chief, and then the girl stopped paying attention to the villagers and went straight to the knights of light.
"Imperials, this is the Land of Light, and what you are saving is a shameful heresy!"
The Knight of Light said angrily, but the pressure brought to him by that battleship was very huge, for the sake of his companions' lives and the Kingdom of Light, it was impossible for him to easily clash with the Imperials, and against a warship that could fly in the sky, it was enough to make anyone feel hopeless.
"First of all, according to the laws of the Empire, the Empire has never claimed to have renounced any territory on the Dragon Sleep Continent, so the village we are currently in is more of a disputed territory than the territory of the Bright Realm!
Secondly, the War Humanitarian Pact is a treaty signed by the Empire and the Land of Light and the Kingdom of Darkness four years ago to protect humanity who disagrees with the doctrines of Light and Darkness, so our action this time is completely in line with the terms of the Convention, and it is useless for you to report to your Pope.
Last but not least, even if you disagree with the Bright Realm, it's useless, and if you dare to stop me from carrying out my mission, I'll let you die as clean as those unlucky people over there!
” The girl in the skirt with a metal chest guard was coherent but brutal towards the Light Knights, and when she pointed her finger at the corpses of the Dark Knights, the Light Knights' faces became as ugly as dead people.
