The heavy sword fell, bypassing the girl's head and instead hovering above her shoulder on one side.

This heavy sword was made from refined steel, with exceptional hardness and sharpness;

An ordinary sword could not be compared to this specialized weapon used by the Crusaders.

Therefore, anyone associated with the Church, except for the one who had already hidden, had no doubt:

When this sword struck, the girl would undoubtedly be mercilessly split in half at the shoulder;

Even if the queen of their own country were present, that important person would not bother to form a deep hatred with the Church of the Supreme God for just a commoner;

Even if the girl unquestionably died, it would only be a worthless and pitiful death, devoid of any value!

Those associated with the Church clearly had three misconceptions in their minds.

First:

If something were to happen to the girl, the queen herself would undoubtedly wage a desperate war against the Church, along with the entire Holy Empire.

Regardless of which soul resided in that body, whether Liu Caihua or Isabella, it would not change the fact that the two sides had established an unending blood feud.

Second:

If something were to really happen to the girl, even if the queen did not intervene, no one from the group of the Cardinal in red and others could hope to leave this place alive;

The direct gazes from the corners were quite dangerous;

Based on the user's emotions, the fan and the inverted cross could transform from decorative items to deadly weapons.

Third:

The girl would absolutely not die, as even from the next scene, it was easy to see:

Not to mention death, not even the slightest scratch could appear on her body!

Clang~~

As the sword's edge fell upon the girl's shoulder, it neatly snapped at the moment of contact, breaking from the hilt!

Similar to an egg colliding with a rock and the metal sword body bouncing back up, creating intricate patterns in midair, just like a cracked eggshell.

At the beginning, this knight had "kindly" reminded the girl to leave on her own...

Unfortunately, the girl did not need his reminder.

"Why are so many people I encounter so hot-headed?"

At the moment when the sword attacking her was destroyed, the girl reached out her right hand and patted the knight's chest in front of her, trying to calm him down.

Due to the heavy armor he was wearing, her palm naturally landed on the surface of his breastplate.

It seemed like an unintentional action.

When her palm landed, the emotionless knight suddenly felt something was wrong with his body.

Signs emerged on the surface of his chest, countless small cracks enveloping the metal in patches, rapidly spreading throughout the armor;

The upper half of the Crusader's body involuntarily leaned backward in the next instant, as if bowing before the girl.

However, in the span of a single breath, the armor that encased the knight shattered with a loud noise, and he was sent flying towards his waiting companions behind him.

The Crusaders in the back row, grouping together several individuals as one row, raised their shields in unison;

The shields were tightly packed next to each other, forming a massive "shield wall".

Thud~~

The knight flying backwards, not long after, crashed heavily onto the "shield wall," and in an instant, a more powerful force of recoil erupted.

A row of exhausted Crusaders, despite their best efforts, failed to rely on their defense to block their companions. On the contrary, they were affected by the force of the impact and fell heavily to the ground in a row.

This phenomenon of "one falls, a large area falls" finally completely removed the force of retreat after continuously knocking down seven rows of defense lines.

In the blink of an eye, the Crusaders brought by the red-robed bishop fell nearly half in number, and their formation was completely disrupted!
