Infinite Doomsday Start Draws Luodu Mechanic
Chapter 339 The Church Collapses
It took only a few minutes for the most core and solid building in the monastery, the Blind Eye Cathedral, to collapse so easily.
This speed and efficiency far exceeded Sarah's initial expectations, causing her to blush and shout excitedly, "Okay, okay, keep going! Don't stop!"
"Keep blasting the floor!"
"Got it! Stay calm." Tia, who was operating the artillery, now showed the style of a master.
After sending the Sturmtiger to reload again, she immediately corrected the trajectory of the four Grizzlies and blasted towards the group of monsters in the ruins.
Of course, things were not as simple as Sarah shouted when she was excited.
If you want to continue to blast the floor of the cathedral, you must first clean up the broken bricks, tiles and wood that have just collapsed on the ground.
Otherwise, these messy broken parts are equivalent to a layer of composite armor laid on the ground, which can best absorb the energy of the explosion shock wave.
But the biggest obstacle to cleaning up these broken parts is still the huge number of monsters.
Now that the cathedral has collapsed, the monsters that use it as their home will gradually lose strength.
But so far, they are still nightmare-level.
Letting so many monsters attack the battle formation formed by the rogues is still very risky.
So without saying anything, Tia began to use heavy artillery to eliminate the monsters that gathered together.
The Blind Eye Monastery is very large, and the total area is probably thousands of hectares.
In China, it is also the scale of a new industrial park in a third-tier city.
This means that even if the length and width of this area are similar, it takes three or four kilometers to walk from east to west, or from south to north.
This is not to say how much wealth the Blind Eye Sisters could have plundered.
It is mainly because they built the monastery on the famous East Gate Fortress.
According to the history of this world, the two island continents facing each other across the sea, the East Continent once organized an invasion of the West Island.
In the name of the Church of Zakarum.
It sounds like a magical modification of the Crusades, but the prototype behind this history is more of the Norman invasion.
It is the family of the Norman Duke who first surrendered to West Frank and then invaded Britain to truly unify the seven countries in England for the first time.
In the history of this continent, the invaders from the East Continent also suffered two disastrous defeats in the north and the east.
The corresponding ones are probably Scotland and Wales that were not conquered.
Apart from this, all other areas of the West Continent were conquered.
The East Gate Fortress is an offensive and defensive war fortress built by the conquerors of the East Continent in the Taymor Mountains during this conquest.
Because of this, the monastery here was built in such a rugged area that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it covers a large area.
Even this cathedral was the Holy Light Cathedral built by the Lakis Conquest Army of the Kejistan Kingdom of the East Continent, which originally used Zakarum as its state religion.
After a series of means including but not limited to war, marriage, and conspiracy, the general Lakis from the East Continent finally conquered the West Continent and established the Kingdom of Westmarch in 1060 of the local calendar.
As we all know, the Norman Conquest took place in 1066 AD.
Similarly, during the period of the Seven Kingdoms of England, there was a Kingdom of Mercia roughly located in the center.
Mercia is the Latinization of the Old English-Anglo-Saxon language, which means men of march, people on expeditions, or a country established by expeditioners.
March comes from French, meaning expedition.
The meaning of Mercia is also very clear, that is, the two Germanic tribes, the Anglo-Saxons, started from the periphery of the Saxon Forest, traveled a long distance, migrated and expeditioned, entered the British Isles, killed or robbed and drove away the local indigenous people (Celts), and occupied other people's territories to establish a country.
The name of the country WestMarch has a bit of double entendre black humor.
French-speaking expeditioners coming from the west.
Well, it makes sense.
The East Gate Fortress was originally designed to facilitate the Kekistan Conquest Army of Lakis to transport supplies from the east of the sea to the western continental port city of Lugoin, and then from Lugoin all the way west through the Taimo Mountains to support the war in the front.
But after the conquest of Rakkis, the so-called front line had become the independent Kingdom of Westmarch, and the relationship with the former sovereign, Kehjistan, was somewhat ambiguous. The East Gate Fortress, a central fortress that could attack and defend from east to west, had no value.
It was abandoned naturally until a hundred years ago, when a group of mercenaries who had drifted here settled here, namely the Blind Eye Sisters and the Rogues.
Before the Cataclysm, with the Taymor Mountains as the core, to the west, including the Dark Forest to the Stone Plains to the Blood Wasteland Rogue Camp, and even as far as Tristram in the west, and to the east, across the mountains into a considerable part of the desert area, this area was already the territory of the Kingdom of Khanduras.
To be precise, it is probably the complete territory of the so-called Kingdom of Khanduras.
This kingdom is an ally of Westmarch in the west, but it is also controlled or canonized by the Kingdom of Kehjistan (Empire) and the Church of Zakarum across the ocean.
The warrior hero of the original first generation, the dark wanderer controlled by Diablo in the second generation, and the biological father of Tia's mother Leah - Aidan, is the prince of the Kingdom of Khanduras.
His father is the corrupted and fallen Mad King in his lifetime and the Skeleton King after his death, King Leoric.
This King Leoric was originally a member of the royal family of Tranvikan in the East Continent, a devout believer of Zakarum, and was canonized as the Kingdom of Khanduras.
By the way, during the Western Expedition of Rakis and the process of King Leoric accepting the canonization, some of his followers were paladins of the Church of Zakarum.
These people, plus some adventurers from the East Continent, are almost the entire source of the paladins in the town of Rogue.
In short, from the fact that the area near the East Gate Fortress has become the territory of the Kingdom of Khanduras, it can be seen that after the founding of Westmarch, this part of the area was regarded as an intermediate buffer zone with the original suzerain state of the East Continent.
Then it is understandable that the East Gate Fortress was abandoned.
In short, the reason why the Blind Eye Monastery of Rogues was so difficult to capture after being occupied by monsters was related to the fact that its predecessor was actually the East Gate Fortress built during the conquest of Rakis before the founding of Westmarch.
The difficulty that the East Gate Fortress caused to Sarah's Rogue troops was not limited to its easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain, large area, and solid buildings.
Because this place was once a war fortress during a protracted war of conquest, it was used as the core church of the fortress cathedral by the Zakarum Church, so there is such a large underground tomb under it.
That is why countless corpses are buried there.
