"Call the Knights Templar immediately! Arrange the city defense!" High Priest Selina said in a sharp tone, leaving no room for doubt. She turned to look at the herald beside her, her eyes sharp as a blade, "Immediately! Immediately!" The herald did not dare to neglect it, bowed and received the order, and quickly retreated. The footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, gradually going farther and farther. Selina walked to the window, looked at the gradually brightening sky outside the window, took a deep breath, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes. A new day has come, and it will also be a day when the Holy City faces life and death.

Mark stood beside the high priest, frowning and saying nothing. Elvira's appearance made him feel deeply uneasy, but he knew that now was not the time to hesitate. He must cheer up, for the safety of the Holy City, for Lily's hatred, and for the belief in protection in his heart. He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, his knuckles made a crackling sound, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged.

High Priest Selina walked to the magic circle in the center of the Holy City, raised her scepter, and chanted something. The holy stone on the top of the scepter emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire Holy City. A powerful energy wave spread from the magic circle, reinforcing the walls of the Holy City. The runes on the walls flashed with light, like dragons, wandering on the walls, forming an indestructible defense barrier.

In the distance, black clouds rolled in, covering the sky and the sun, as if the end of the world was coming. The earth was shaking, and there was a suffocating sense of oppression in the air. The guards of the Holy City were on guard, holding weapons in their hands, and looking at the distance vigilantly.

Elvira's army of dark monsters swept in like a black tide. They were in various shapes, hideous and terrifying, and made deafening roars that resounded through the world. The earth trembled under their feet, trees were knocked down by them, and dust flew, covering the sky and the sun.

"Here they come!" a guard shouted loudly, with a hint of fear in his voice.

The Knights Templar warriors were ready, holding swords and shields, forming a steel defense line, quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy. There was no fear on their faces, only the determination to die.

The dark army of monsters rushed towards the holy city like a black torrent. They roared and roared like evil spirits from hell, with the madness of destroying everything.

"Attack!" Mark shouted loudly, and his voice echoed on the battlefield like thunder.

The Knights Templar warriors rushed towards the monster army like tigers descending from the mountain. Swords and shadows, blood and flesh flew. The tragic battle unfolded under the holy city, and the shouts and killing shook the earth.

Mark led the way, and the long sword in his hand shuttled through the monster army like a dragon, and every time he swung it, he took the lives of several monsters. He was dressed in silver armor, like a god descending from heaven, brave and invincible.

High Priest Selina stood on the city wall, holding up her scepter, continuously releasing energy to support the warriors on the front line.

Elvira was suspended in the air, watching the fierce battle with cold eyes. Her black wings fluttered gently, bringing gusts of cold wind, making her look more like a witch from hell.

"Just relying on you ants, you want to stop me?" Elvira sneered, her tone full of disdain.

Mark fought side by side with the Ice Shadow of the Ice Abyss Beast to resist the invasion of the Warcraft army. They cooperated tacitly, as if they were one body, every attack was just right, and every defense was watertight.

Mark waved the long sword in his hand, the sword light was sharp, cutting through the air, bringing a whistling wind. He was agile and shuttled freely among the Warcraft group, and every swing of the sword accurately hit the vital points of the Warcraft. Blood splattered, staining the ground red, and also staining Mark's silver armor red. He gritted his teeth, his eyes were sharp, like a hunting eagle, exuding a chilling murderous aura.

Bingying, a snow-white ice beast, let out a deafening roar. Its huge body was like a moving fortress, rushing forward and knocking away the monsters in front of it. Its sharp claws tore the monsters' flesh, leaving shocking wounds. Cold air gushed out of its mouth, instantly freezing the surrounding monsters into ice sculptures, and then shattered into countless ice chips, scattered all over the ground. On the battlefield, the cold air was pervasive, and ice chips were flying, as if in an ice and snow world.

"Don't overestimate your own abilities!" Avella smiled contemptuously and commanded several huge siege beasts to hit the gate of the holy city. "Bang!" With a loud bang, the siege beasts' impact caused the gate of the holy city to vibrate violently, making a tooth-grinding creaking sound. Obvious cracks appeared on the heavy wooden door, and wood chips flew everywhere. The guards fought desperately, holding up the gate with their bodies to prevent it from falling. Their faces were full of determination and resoluteness. Even when faced with a huge siege beast, they did not flinch.

"Damn it!" Seeing this, Mark frowned, and a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes. He ordered the Knights Templar to allocate part of their forces to stop the siege beast from hitting. "Paladin! Follow me!" He shouted loudly, his voice loud and powerful, clearly audible in the noisy battlefield. He waved the long sword in his hand and led the charge towards the siege beast. The paladins behind him followed closely, forming a steel defense line to meet the impact of the siege beast.

Selina stood on the city wall, holding the scepter tightly with both hands, her knuckles white. Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, her face was pale, and her lips were tightly pursed. She increased the energy output of the holy stone, and the runes on the city wall shone brightly, emitting a dazzling light, like a golden barrier, covering the entire holy city. The cracks on the city gate gradually healed and became as stable as before. Selina took a deep breath, resisting the discomfort caused by the rapid loss of energy in her body, and stared at the battlefield with a firm gaze. The holy stone has lost its energy, and the energy to maintain the barrier now depends entirely on the scepter made of altar branches. Selina knew that this would not last long.

Seeing that the attack failed, Elvira's eyes flashed with a hint of viciousness. She changed her strategy and commanded the flying monsters to attack Selina. "Go, kill that woman!" Her sharp voice echoed in the air like the cry of a night owl. Dozens of flying monsters of various shapes spread their huge wings and made piercing screams, like black clouds, covering the sky and the sun, swooping towards Selina.

Bingying roared and attacked the group of monsters in the air. Its huge body soared into the air, and its snow-white fur shone in the sun. It waved its sharp claws and shredded the approaching flying monsters into pieces. Ice chips and feathers flew all over the sky, like a heavy snowfall.

Mark also noticed the movements of the flying beasts, and he was extremely anxious. "Bingying, protect Lady Selina!" He shouted loudly, with a hint of anxiety in his voice. He swung his sword and killed several flying beasts approaching Selina, and then joined forces with Bingying to fight a fierce battle with the beasts in the air.

Mark and Bingying, the ice beast, cooperated tacitly, as if they were one. Bingying was responsible for blocking most of the attacks of flying beasts, while Mark was responsible for killing those that slipped through the net. Their figures intertwined, drawing beautiful arcs in the air. The sword light flashed, the cold air filled the air, and the bodies of the beasts fell to the ground like raindrops, making a dull sound.

Seeing that Mark and Bingying were so difficult to deal with, Elvira frowned. Her scarlet eyes flashed with dangerous light, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. "It seems that I have to do it myself." She whispered, with a hint of excitement in her voice. Black wings spread out behind her, like the wings of a demon, covering the sky and the sun, casting a huge shadow that enveloped the entire battlefield. She slowly rose into the air, like a queen descending, looking down at everything below.

After Elvira took off, her black wings gently flapped, bringing a gust of wind, blowing the soldiers on the ground to the ground. Her black robe rustled, revealing pale arms with black runes wrapped around them, flashing a strange light. She looked down at Mark below, her scarlet eyes full of contempt. "Humans who are overconfident dare to stop me."

Mark looked up at Elvira in the air, holding the long sword in his hand tightly, and the runes on the hilt emitted a faint blue light. "Elvira, I defeated you once in the future, and I can do it this time too!" He said firmly, without any fear. Bingying roared low, hovering around Mark, watching Elvira vigilantly. Bingying recognized the breath of Elvira's soul. Yes, this was Elvira whose soul was devoured by it.

"Hmph, what future has ever defeated me? Wishful thinking!" Elvira sneered, and pointed her slender finger at Mark, "Go, kill him."

Following Elvira's command, several huge flying monsters swooped down and pounced on Mark. These monsters were covered with black scales, shining with a metallic luster, and their sharp claws glowed coldly, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

Mark took a deep breath, his eyes like torches. He waved his sword, and the sword light was like a flash of lightning, cutting through the air and accurately hitting the wings of a flying monster. The monster let out a shrill scream, lost balance, and fell from the air.

"Ice Shadow!" Mark shouted.

Ice Shadow understood, and quickly flew under the falling monster, opened his bloody mouth, and swallowed the monster into his stomach. Its white fur was stained with the blood of the monster, making it look even more hideous and terrifying.

Selina on the wall saw this scene, her face was slightly pale, but she still firmly maintained the energy output of the scepter. The scepter emitted a soft white light, illuminating the entire city wall and Selina's resolute face. A Templar Knight ran to Selina's side, "Lady Selina, Lord Mark..." The knight's tone was filled with worry.

Selina shook her head slightly, her eyes firm, "Believe in him, he will definitely be able to do it."

Elvira saw that her magic beast was easily killed by Mark and Bingying, and a trace of anger flashed across her face. "Waste!" She cursed in a low voice, and then waved her arms again, commanding more flying magic beasts to attack Mark.

The dense flying magic beasts were like dark clouds, covering the sky and the sun and rushing towards Mark. Mark waved his long sword and cooperated with Bingying to resist the attack of the magic beasts, but the number of magic beasts was too large, and gradually, Mark began to feel powerless.
