I will go now.

Chin Doofing felt a little apprehensive and immediately agreed.

Chinlu was his grandfather and the person he feared the most since childhood.

This stern, somewhat harsh, and violent old man never showed him smile.

Even though he was his biological grandfather to Chin Dofung, Chinlu was merely an authority figure who demanded absolute obedience from him.

Although he had briefly zoned out and Henti grasped the full context, Chin Doofing understood that Chinlu's change in attitude was undoubtedly related to Linia.

The stronghold Lina was going to support was located on the eastern flank of the Third Regiment stronghold.

The current wave of demon counterattacks was particularly fierce.

Even with a significant number of priests supporting the Third Regiment, they still faced considerable pressure.

Fortunately, the situation at the Alliance's stronghold on the eastern flank wasn't much better than that of the Third Regiment.

In fact, the pressure on the Alliance side was even greater.

The Archbishops had previously decided to abandon the Third Regiment stronghold after assessing that if the Alliance's stronghold fell, most of the pressure would inevitably shift to the Third Regiment.

So, since it was like this, why not just give up on this troublesome stronghold altogether? Therefore, their earlier decision was to abandon that stronghold.

Now, wanting to hold on to that stronghold undoubtedly stemmed from Lena.

Despite Shin Lou's hostility toward Linia, it didn't mean he was truly indifferent to the impact Lena brought.

With Lena's involvement, the pressure on the alliance's eastern flank stronghold would undoubtedly drop significantly.

It was highly likely that they could successfully repel this wave of abyssal demon attacks.

So if the church withdrew, the alliance could smoothly take over the abandoned stronghold, directly linking the three strongholds together and achieving widespread control.

If a new settlement were developed in this area in the future, the church would have no say here.

Thus, after deliberation, these archbishops decided to grit their teeth and hold onto this place.

They even went so far as to enlist the help of the Mad God Guild.

Rest assured, if necessary, I will personally go to assist you and manifest my presence on the battlefield.

" Chinlu said, noticing Chin Doofing<unk>s troubled expression, thinking he was scared, and thus tried to reassure him.

Chin Doofing bowed deeply and said understood, "I will go now.

" After saying this, he turned to leave.

Yet, his thoughts were very complicated.

In this situation, what Chinlu and the others were considering was indeed perplexing.

To be honest, although the third regiment was under significant pressure, it wasn't to the point of being unable to hold on immediately if Chinlu had been willing.

Sending Chin Doofing with the priest team to assist the alliance's eastern flank stronghold would have certainly reduced casualties among the alliance's troops.

And at the same time, holding the eastern flank stronghold could alleviate the pressure on the Third Regiment stronghold.

However, Chinlu did not choose to do so.

Instead, seeing the situation was unfavorable, he directly retreated, ruthlessly stabbing the Alliance in the back.

Now, seeing that the Alliance troops might be able to hold the Eastern Flank stronghold, he ordered the Third Regiment to defend their own stronghold at all costs.

Although, from the church's perspective, this was merely a choice made based on self-interest.

It left Chin Doofing increasingly unsettled.

Chapter 219.

the battlefield of level 219 frantically boosting attributes about 30 miles outside the boundary of the deep city settlement.

There's a rare plane.

What makes this place particularly unique is that it is adjacent to the largest freshwater source in the southern provinces.

Setting up a transit station here would greatly facilitate transportation between Deep City and the surrounding settlements.

It can be said that this area is extremely important.

Many years ago, this used to be a fairly large city, but after the abyss descended, it became a wasteland infested with monsters.

Subsequently, it was controlled by various followers of demon gods, becoming a core stronghold for many demon beings.

Recently, the holy day's radiance instantly turned the minions of the demon gods that occupied this area into ashes.

The area originally controlled by the demon gods finally had its defenses opened and it was divided into three sections by the Alliance and the church.

Although it is not the entire region, starting from these areas and gradually reclaiming the old lands will eventually allow for the complete recovery of this territory.

However, the counterattack from the monsters is particularly fierce.

If it weren't for the demon gods being unable to easily manifest their power in the human world, they would likely have descended in their true forms.

They certainly cannot allow humans to reclaim such an important piece of land.

Therefore, after the holy day retreated, many lurking demon beings in the human world were immediately dispatched to this area, attempting to take back the territory.

Additionally, they continuously sent more monsters to try to overwhelm the human practitioners.

In the ensuing bloody battles, the human army indeed suffered heavy casualties with numerous losses.

It can be said that everything is under the control of the demon gods.

If this continues, the situation will inevitably tilt in favor of the demon gods, and it is basically only a matter of time before the humans can no longer hold their ground.

However, the appearance of one person changed the current situation.

If it were just him alone, altering the battle situation in a small area would not change the overall dynamics of the battlefield at all.

However, this person brought along many more individuals.

This is what the demon gods had not anticipated.

When Lin Yi returned to the battlefield with hundreds of peak state warriors, it instantly boosted the morale of all the warriors present.

This was undoubtedly a terrifying development.

It allowed the humans to repel this wave of monster attacks and gain a brief moment of respit.

Lini, I didn't expect you to come here.

Yun, the lord of Deep City and the Alliance's overall commander in the south, was somewhat excited.

He truly did not expect Lini to be willing to appear on the battlefield.

Although Lin's relationship with the church is indeed somewhat delicate, it had not yet reached the point of open hostility.

The church possesses many resources for holy light practitioners which Lini needs.

Therefore, regardless of how much Lini opposes the church, he likely wound T confront them openly.

However, with Lini leading a team to support the Alliance army, coupled with his words on the plaza in Deep City, it could be said that he directly declared his opposing stance against the church.

Although most ordinary people and even some practitioners might not notice these things, the relationship between Lini and the church had undoubtedly reached an irreparable state of opposition after Lya's statement.

This was what surprised Yin Sun the most.

He never expected Lini to be so straightforward and publicly confrontational with the church.

But this made Yen Sunun completely re-evaluate Leni, not to mention Holy Light practitioners, even the Alliance and some top guilds.

after being disgusted by the church for so many years could only endure.

After all, although the church is repulsive in many ways, there are places where they are essential.

For instance, right now, if the church were willing to lend a hand, the difficulty of the Alliance army holding the stronghold would undoubtedly decrease significantly.

Unfortunately, the challenge of defending the stronghold is still quite great.

Yans sighed, knowing just how difficult it was.

The surrounding spatial rifts are at level 80.

Although this also means that the monsters attacking here are at most around level 80.

It limits the high-end combat power that the alliance can deploy.

This is a kind of contract, a rule established after human strongmen compromised with the demon gods.

Human practitioners are not allowed to appear around spatial rifts lower than their own level.

And if this rule is violated, the demon gods will dispatch higher level forces to respond.

As for what level the battle will escalate to in the end, it is hard to say.

In any case, the demon god side would love for humans to violate this rule because considering the overall combat power of humans right now, if they violate this level limit rule, they would definitely not be an advantage.

Thus, no matter how difficult the current situation is, the human army can only deploy up to level 80, absolutely not daring to exceed that.

Therefore, this battle is particularly challenging.

Hey, I just happen to be able to join the fight.

Leong Ho Yun, who had come with Lini, spoke up at this moment.

Yanson looked at this somewhat roguish holy night with a pleased expression.

I never expected you, Night Leang, to be willing to fight.

He exclaimed excitedly.

This was a big surprise brought by Lingi.

Others may not recognize Leang Ho Yun.

But how could Yin Sun not know him? This knight commander of the Holy Temple Knight Corps, born from one of the 12 noble families, actually went to the Alliance's University to be an admissions teacher, which is quite a rarity.

The key point is that Leong Ho Yun is exceptionally powerful.

The Alliance had tried every means to win him over with emotional appeals and benefits, but failed, only able to watch Leong Ho Yun languish in his position as an admissions teacher.

Yet now he unexpectedly chose to follow Lini to support the Alliance army.

This is truly a pleasant surprise.

However, for the church, this is likely a great humiliation.
