Chapter 260
"They seem to have stopped assembling construction machinery. Are they planning to come over and persuade them to surrender?"
Zhang Qi used a telescope passed down from his mother and equipped with anti-laser polarizing plates to observe every move of the soldiers below the castle.
"Normally, their clergy have a process to persuade us to surrender, but since we will be executed by the church whether we surrender, they are too lazy to go through this process now."
Hufflepuff said.
"It seems that our enemy wants to go through the process. Do any of you know the other party's general or bishop?"
Zhang Qi frowned, and then continued to observe the fat man on the horse.
"The other side's bishop is notorious and likes to beat people who disobey him into wizards and then send them to the stake."
"But because he is a relative of the Pope, he has great power, and even the church does not dare to deal with him."
"What about the knight following him? I feel like he can fight very well."
Zhang Qi frowned when he saw the knight behind him.
This knight is a full 1 meters tall, and his whole body is wrapped in armor made of mithril.
On his exposed neck, Zhang Qi could see very strong muscles and blood vessels.
"He is Favaro Leo, one of the three divine punishment knights of the Holy See. He has undergone some kind of alchemical transformation. Even very vicious black magic cannot harm his body unless he is attacked with a sword like a Muggle. combat".
"But alchemy gave him a physique far beyond that of ordinary people. Godric once fought with him, but almost died in his hands."
"The scene at that time was really dangerous. My previous weapon was a spear that I snatched from the hands of the Judgment Knight, but he bent the barrel of the gun for me with one punch."
Gryffindor interjected from the side.
"Then kill the bishop first. If he dies first, then the priests will lose their military morale, and the magic pressure you face will be reduced a lot."
Zhang Qi said softly.
"You have a way to kill him at this distance"?
Slytherin asked with some confusion.
"Not right now, we need to wait until he gets closer."
Zhang Qi put the telescope back into his bag, then put his eyes in front of the optical sight, and began to gently estimate the wind speed and recall the contents on the shooting table.

"My Lord Bishop, I think it would be fine if you read the Pope's words from this position. It would be dangerous if you go any closer."
Favaro said tactfully towards the bishop.
"No, no, no, even if an alchemy microphone is used in this position, they can't hear clearly at all. The Pope's rebuke must be conveyed to the ears of the rebels."
The fat bishop waved his hand, and the horse under his crotch also quickened its pace slightly.
"It's really nonsense"!
Favaro muttered something anxiously, but he didn't want to object to the clergy's words, so he could only follow the bishop.
"The terrain here is rugged, but the high ground ahead is extremely flat. Let's go there."
The bishop complained about the difficulty of the road here while walking towards a flat plain ahead.
"Ah, it turns out that the devil's lair is in the center of the lake. This is blasphemy against God!"
An accompanying priest picked up the Bible in his hand and tapped the ground with the wooden ceremonial staff he carried.
The tip of the gold-encrusted staff began to emit a sacred light, and then, a majestic but slightly dilapidated castle appeared in front of several people.
The castle is located on the island in the middle of the lake. It looks like it has been weathered, but Favaro knows very well that this castle will definitely be very difficult to attack when attacking.
"Your Majesty, please read the Pope's instructions"!
Several priests on the side said with great respect.
“God loves the world, God is merciful, and God wants to use fire to purify the sins of the world”…
The bishop shook his drunken mind, and then spoke in a very loud tongue.
"At this distance, even the bed crossbow we have blessed with alchemy will have a hard time hitting it. It is most likely safe. Let's just let this fool read there first."
Favaro shook his head irritably, then turned around and planned to sit on the stone next to him for a while.
“God gives light to the world”…
The bishop was still thinking about something. Unfortunately, at the moment Farrault sat down on the big stone next to him, a glimmer of light flashed on the wall of the castle in the distance, and then an obvious flower rose up. But the fire is not too obvious.
"puff"!
With a sound like a watermelon being hit by a hammer, a little warm liquid splashed onto Favaro's face.
The best Divine Punishment Knight touched the liquid on his face with some confusion, and then put his hand within his sight.
There was a bright red color on the finger, and the liquid was warm and slightly viscous to the touch.
On the grass less than two meters away from him, the fat bishop lowered his head in disbelief and looked at his chest, his eyes full of confusion.
Just now, a 7.62mm bullet pierced the skin one inch below his left shoulder with great accuracy, and then penetrated the tough but extremely fragile muscles underneath, and then it was like a rapidly rotating drill. Drilled into the heart.
The heart was broken into countless pieces by the cavity effect, and the lungs on the side were also affected, and a small piece of half-baked lung lobe was also torn off.
The bullet then broke the back half of the ribs, and then he lost his balance slightly, opening a fist-sized hole in his back.
Bone residue and internal organ fragments were splashed on the green grass like rain, and a small part hit Knight Commander Favaro in the face.
"Target hit, kill confirmed."
Zhang Qi pulled the bolt of the gun, ejected the hot bullet casing from the chamber, picked it up with his hand and put it aside.
"boom"!
There was another thunderous sound, and the priest who had just raised his ceremonial staff let out a scream.
The second bullet hit his hip bone and tore off half of his leg!
"Iron bullet"!
The knights who reacted next to him immediately raised their shields, protecting the knight captain inside.
"Very talented, but what's the use?"
Zhang Qi once again pulled the bolt of the SSG300. This Swiss-made high-precision sniper rifle contained steel-core armor-piercing bullets in its magazine, which could penetrate ordinary bulletproof cars at a distance of 1000 meters.
To him, the shields raised by the knights were no different from paper shells.
