Chapter 136: Reclaim Preston

“Lord Cardinal Monn! Philip has brought the Holy Knights of St. Servant to support us!!”

The voice was like a bronze bell.

It was extremely loud.

Cardinal Monn looked at the expressions of the others.

He knew in his hearts that these people were probably not just here to support them.

They were probably also here to show off.

Although Cardinal Monn understood it in his heart, he did not say anything.

The Holy Knights’ eyes lit up.

They were looking forward to Lord Cardinal Monn giving them some orders, so that they could show off their valor and strength in front of the Holy Knights of Preston.

After all, their St. Servant City hadn’t been breached, and they even repulsed the Werewolves, which is worth bragging.

In addition, Preston often fought against St. Servant.

They also wanted to get back at them in this aspect.

Cardinal Monn looked at them indifferently and instantly understood their thoughts.

“You want a mission?” Cardinal Monn asked softly.

Philip hurriedly nodded.

Even the Holy Knights standing behind him could not wait.

They all wanted to show off their strength in front of Preston’s Holy Knights.

Cardinal Monn understood and said, “Alright.”

Philip immediately nodded, upon hearing Cardinal Monn’s words.

The Holy Knights behind him also had looks of anticipation.

They waited for Cardinal Monn to give the order.

Seeing this, Cardinal Monn said softly, “Since that’s the case, then you guys can clean up the battlefield with Preston’s Holy Knights. This way, it’ll be faster.”

Philip and the Holy Knights behind him nodded in unison.

They only reacted after Cardinal Monn turned around and left.

They could not help but ask, “Clean up the battlefield?”

Some of them actually questioned the order.

Even Philip was stunned.

He felt that he had misheard.

He hurriedly rushed up and asked, “Cardinal Monn, you mean cleaning up the battlefield?”

Monn looked at him indifferently as he walked and said, “Why? Didn’t you guys want a mission? The mission now is to clean up the battlefield.”

Philip scratched his head and said, “But we’re here to support Preston and repulse the Werewolves.”

He was thinking of launching an irresistible attack on the Werewolves in front of Preston.

But now…

Lord Cardinal Monn actually asked them to clean up the battlefield.

Weren’t we overqualified for this mission?

Seeing through his thoughts, Cardinal Monn asked, “What are your thoughts?”

Philip hurriedly nodded.

Cardinal Monn continued, “Do you see any Werewolves now?”

Philip observed for a moment and shook his head.

He felt a little strange. On the way here, he had heard that a large portion of Preston had already been occupied by Werewolves.

But now, he couldn’t even see any Werewolves.

“Since there are no Werewolves, of course you have to do something else. Now, it’s time to clean up the battlefield.”

Hearing this, Philip immediately felt discouraged.

Although he did not know where the Werewolves went, there would always be an opportunity in the future.

If he cleaned up the battlefield now, he might be able to kill the Werewolves after cleaning up the battlefield?

Thinking of this, he was filled with renewed energy.

Then, he hurriedly ordered the Holy Knights to clean up the battlefield.

Although the Holy Knights were puzzled as to why they did not kill the Werewolves.

But since it was an order, of course they had to carry it out.

So they all began to clean up the battlefield obediently.

But Philip, who was still thinking about the Werewolves, asked the Holy Knights of Preston, “Brother, why are there no Werewolves here?”

According to his intelligence, this should be the place where the Werewolves and humans were confronting each other in Preston.

Otherwise, his Holy Knights wouldn’t have rushed here.

But the fact that there wasn’t a single Werewolf here made him wonder if his information was wrong.

The Holy Knight that he spoke to revealed a strange expression and said, “Werewolves, they must have been scared away, right?”

Hearing this, Philip didn’t believe it at all.

When they were in St. Servant, it was as difficult as it could be.

But it turned out that you, Preston, were better.

The Werewolves were scared away?

Philip thought that this guy was joking with him.

But there wasn’t a single Werewolf here, which couldn’t be explained.

Could it be that Lord Cardinal Monn had scared them away?

After thinking about it, this was the only outcome he could think of.

But it shouldn’t be.

When they were in St. Servant, why would those werewolves be afraid of a Holy Rank?

Just as he couldn’t figure it out.

Cardinal Monn’s voice sounded.

“After cleaning up the battlefield, gather as quickly as possible. Take advantage of the time when the Werewolves have left Preston and take back Preston as soon as possible.”

Cardinal Monn’s calm voice rang out in everyone’s hearts.

Philip was stunned.

The Werewolves had left Preston?

This made him even more doubtful in his heart.

With this doubt, he led the Holy Knights and followed Cardinal Monn’s footsteps.

Ten minutes later, Cardinal Monn led the Holy Knights to the outer wall of Preston.

The entire Preston city gate had been destroyed beyond recognition.

No one could tell what it looked like before.

Cardinal Monn frowned and shook the rubble off the ground.

He climbed the ladder to the top of the wall.

The Holy Knights divided their work and began Preston’s recovery.

It was all thanks to the work of the Devil.

He had scared the entire Werewolf army out of Preston’s territory.

Otherwise, Cardinal Monn and the others wouldn’t have been able to reclaim Preston easily.

And the Werewolves left in a hurry, so they didn’t take any of the humans they captured with them.

This pleasantly surprised Cardinal Monn and the others.

After all, to be able to save one more human was more than enough to make them happy.

But the whole situation in Preston made Philip and his Holy Knights even more confused.

This was Preston that had been attacked by the Werewolves, and yet there was not a single Werewolf hair that could be seen.

On the other hand, Elton’s face was full of joy.

He didn’t expect his Preston to be taken back so quickly.

Of course, Elton also knew very well that for him to take back Preston so quickly, a huge part was due to luck.

If the Werewolves hadn’t summoned the Devil.

The Werewolves wouldn’t have been scared out of Preston by the Devil.

However, Cardinal Monn’s credit shouldn’t be erased.

After all, Preston had become better and better after Cardinal Monn arrived.

This was undeniable.

At the same time, if Cardinal Monn was not there, what awaited for them would definitely be destruction when the Werewolves summoned the Devil.

Because no one could resist a Devil that had reached the Demi-God Rank.

Only Cardinal Monn, the angel who was sent by the Lord to the lower realm to carry out a secret mission!

Elton rejoiced in his heart.

Of course, no one knew what he was thinking.

If Cardinal Monn knew what he was thinking, he would definitely feel strange.
