Adam shouted out loud!
The sword light fell!
Seeing this scene, Lauri's heart almost came up to her throat.
Just one hit!
Just one more hit!
Once Martha's skull was split, the battle would be over!
However, Martha unexpectedly used the single horn on her head to rub the silver sword.
Although it only hindered for a moment, it gave Martha enough time to react.
She raised her arm and swung it at Adam, who, from the beginning, had the idea of risking his life if he could not succeed and never intended to dodge.
'Plop!'
'Boom!'
The silver cross sword, following the angle of the single horn, cut into Martha's shoulder, deeply into the bone!
And Martha's fist heavily hit Adam's abdomen.
Adam's figure flew backward, smashed a stall on the side of the road, and rolled to the ground.
Martha staggered back two steps and knelt on one knee on the ground.
In this instant exchange, both were injured!
This unexpected situation stunned Lauri for a moment, but the other two knights, Belu and Aidi, did not relax at all.
Taking advantage of their illness, they were determined to take their lives, not sparing any mercy for demons!
The two heroic knights took a strong step and almost simultaneously appeared in front of Martha, their sword lights flashing like lightning!
However, in this instant, two huge bulges suddenly appeared on Martha's back, spraying black blood from the packages. What extended along with the blood turned out to be a pair of wings!
'Clang clang~'
Two large swords fell on those wings, without causing any damage!
Martha's wings trembled slightly, and then... suddenly burst!
The two knights were actually directly bounced away!
'Swish!'
The two silver-armored knights landed on the ground and quickly retreated to the front of the holy carriage, while Adam also got up at this time with his battered armor.
Fortunately, he was not injured.
Lauri breathed a sigh of relief.
At least with the three heroic knights here, even if they couldn't defeat Demon Martha, they could entangle her so that she wouldn't have time to attack herself.
At this point, Lauri showed a truly relaxed smile.
No matter what, the victory was already in hand!
Because, in the distance of the street, two figures shining with golden light were rushing over!
Everyone present noticed these two golden flashes.
Not counting the only Divine Punishment Knight in Glory City.
The eight Guardian Knights were the most powerful fighters in the entire Glory City!
Others also saw this scene! The faces of the people and soldiers showed joy.
"Guardian Knights are here!"
"Long live the Guardian Knights!"
"Kill the devil!!"
The shouting caused the entire area in front of the west city gate to become noisy.
But at this time... Martha, who sensed that the situation was not good, suddenly spread her wings and flew up!
She pulled out the silver sword from her shoulder and looked down at Lauri.
Lauri's gaze did not show any weakness.
Martha slowly opened her mouth, and made a gesture with her lips.
'Someday, I will kill you!'
Lauri also raised her long sword without showing any weakness.
With a calm smile, she pointed it at Martha.
She responded in the same way with her lips.
'Bring it on!'
However, obviously, Martha did not dare to approach her at the moment, and seeing that the golden light in the distance was getting closer and closer, she did not dare to stay any longer.
With a pair of wings like those of a bat, she quickly left the range of Glory City.Watching the gradually disappearing figure of the demon Martha in the sky, reduced to only a small black dot, Lauri finally felt a sense of relief in her tense heart.
"Guardian Knight Hilda!"
"Guardian Knight Narr!"
"Greetings, Saintess Lauri!"
A man and a woman, both Guardian Knights, approached Lauri.
"My knights, please rise."
Hilda stood up and looked at Lauri with a hint of guilt in her eyes.
"Saintess Lauri, I am truly sorry for coming late and causing you distress."
Narr, on the other hand, looked at the three slightly exhausted brave knights who had been fighting.
"May I ask what happened here? Why were the Saintess's powers used? Could it be that the demon army has invaded?"
Lauri shook her head, having just relaxed and not in the mood to explain everything. She just wanted to rest for a while.
"These matters will be answered by Knight Adam. Hilda, please take me back to the temple."
"As you wish."
Hilda nodded, leaped onto the carriage, grabbed the reins, and carefully asked:
"Saintess Lauri, please have a seat."
Lauri nodded, stepped back, and was about to return to the carriage.
Suddenly, a chill rose from behind, making her feel as if she was being watched by a venomous snake. The shivering sensation made her subconsciously look back.
But… there was nothing there.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Hilda obviously didn't feel anything strange and asked in confusion.
Lauri carefully inspected the area but found nothing out of the ordinary, so she shook her head and returned to the carriage.
"Go!"
With a gentle shout, the holy carriage slowly started moving towards the temple.
What Lauri didn't know was that in a dark corner near the city wall, a silver-armored knight quietly raised his head, watching the departing holy carriage and murmuring to himself.
"Martha has failed. It seems it's time for me to take action. I must report the situation to Lord Zuka as soon as possible."
With that, the figure slowly disappeared into the crowd.
On the other side, inside the moving holy carriage.
Lauri put the Sword of Fidelity back into its sheath, along with the Moon Banner, and both were placed into the storage space. The exhaustion from surviving the ordeal made her collapse weakly onto the bed.
Only at this moment did she realize that her back was completely soaked.
Clothes clinging to her body, a breeze came in from the window, bringing a slight chill.
The young girl knew that this was only the beginning.
This world was too unfriendly to her and all women.
Although she had escaped danger for now, it was only temporary.
The real danger was still outside the city in the endless demon army.
She vaguely remembered that this time, the demon army was led by just one demon general.
Lauri looked at the distant sky. As her special class skill ended, the sky returned to daylight, and white clouds floated above the blue sky.
Her feelings were mixed.
All these changes had caught her off guard, but she had managed to barely pull through.
Sitting on the bed, she finally had the time to look at herself.
Standing up, she went to the mirror. This holy carriage was protected by magic circles, so it wouldn't shake on any bumpy roads.
Her reflection appeared in the mirror.
Silver-white hair, a pure gold crown on her head, and the white Saintess robe with silver edges trailing on the ground behind her.
Glancing back, the robe's train didn't pick up any dust due to the divine enchantments covering it.To some extent, it can avoid harm and doesn't require cleaning. After searching his memory, Lauri couldn't help but sigh helplessly. This adorable Saintess, she actually only has three identical sets of clothes, and doesn't even have a decent set of armor. To put it bluntly, she is just a mascot, only needing to be placed in the temple and receive the worship and admiration of the people. But this is not Disneyland! Lauri couldn't help but clench his fist, firming up his own beliefs: "I, Lauri, will never give in!"
