As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 177 – Retreat to San Lorenzo

The Elf Forest.

The entire forest was silent.

There was not the slightest sound of birds or beasts.

Only the sound of leaves swaying in the breeze and the deep breathing of the people could be heard.

The elves' eyes were filled with shock as they looked at the remnants of the night feline monster that drifted away with the wind.

This terrifying spell was something they had never seen before.

In just an instant, the entire body of the night feline monster was crushed into powder.

Even the remnants of its body were blown away by the wind.

This terrifying scene caused a chill to rise in the hearts of the elves.

They imagined that if they were in the space within the range of that spell,

They would be..

Hiss —

They hurriedly shook their necks.

A layer of goosebumps rose all over their bodies.

Their scalps began to tingle.

They felt a chill in their hearts.

They quickly shook away the images in their minds.

Their eyes were filled with surprise.

They did not imagine that the seemingly harmless Pope Monn would be so terrifying.

This made them look at Pope Monn.

They could not help but hide behind the elf leader, Eiffel.

Their bodies began to tremble.

They were afraid of being noticed by the elf leader.

This scene made elf leader Eiffel speechless.

That was the Pope of the Orthodox Church.

He had a bright heart.

How could he do anything to you.

Of course, the strange spell of the elf leader was something that even Eiffel himself was a little scared of.

It was really too terrifying.

Not even a bit of residue was left.

At the thought of this,

His mouth involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Eiffel stopped the uneasiness in his heart.

On the other hand, Ace and the Paladins looked calm.

They had seen this scene countless times.

After recovering from the shock,

There was nothing special about it.

Instead, he brought back the two Paladins who were trembling and supporting each other as they walked back.

When Monn finished off the night feline monster.

A trace of pity flashed in Sylvia's eyes,

But she still suppressed her emotions and controlled her desire to save him.

They could no longer be considered her clansmen.

What stood in front of them was just a bunch of wild beasts.

Monn had just saved them from a lifetime of torture.

They would be grateful.

Sylvia could only comfort herself as much as she could,

Because she had no other way.

Besides, these night feline monsters were no longer real night feline monsters.

Their souls and consciousness had been corroded by the darkness.

They didn't have their own thoughts at all.

They might as well be freed, which was also a way to save them.

Thinking of this, Sylvia's eyes were clear.

She made up her mind,

Because she also knew,

That it was impossible for her clansmen to regain their consciousness.

Because their souls and consciousness had been completely corroded by the darkness.

Now, standing in front of them was only a body carrying the darkness.

It was like a walking corpse.

Staring at the appearance of her clansmen committing murder everywhere,

She was disgusted her even more.

So, she didn't have any objection to Monn turning her clansmen into ashes.

She even felt a little grateful.

She was grateful to Monn for helping her people get out of this miserable situation.

As the night feline monster turned into a pile of residue under everyone's eyes and was blown away by the wind,

Monn raised his eyebrows slightly.

His sharp senses detected countless eyes filled with malice.

Monn's saw that,

The entire Elf Forest became quieter and quieter.

On the verdant branches,.

Suddenly, countless blurry figures appeared.

Their eyes shone with a bloodthirsty red light.

They were filled with endless malice towards Monn.

Especially after Monn killed the night feline monster,

The malice in their eyes became even more intense.

Their terrifying gazes stared fixedly at Monn and the others.

The elves couldn't help but tighten their robes.

A chill suddenly surged in their hearts.

Their gazes were solemn as they looked at the countless black figures that had suddenly appeared.

Everyone already knew what they were.

The black figures on the treetops were definitely the members of the night feline monster clan.

After all, Monn and the others had long known that the outer area of the Elf Forest had long been occupied by the night feline monster clan.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but turn their gazes to Monn,

Waiting for Monn's decision.

Monn frowned and thought calmly.

The night feline monster was extremely fast.

Even Monn himself had to use an extremely tricky method to deal with this night feline monster.

If it were another person, the night feline monster would have easily dodged him.

Even if his strength was much stronger than the night feline monster,

The night feline monster's speed was not something that anyone could catch up to.

Therefore, once the battle began.

Although the Paladins led by Monn were very strong in terms of tactics.

They were completely suppressed in terms of speed.

Monn could not guarantee that the Paladins would be able to deal with them.

Even with the strength of Ace and that elf leader, Eiffel, who was of Holy Ranking

The speed of an Amethyst-Level Holy Rank night feline monster was still worrisome.

So this was what Monn was worried about.

It would be fine if the Paladins could build something.

But if it did not have any effect, it would be a waste of their power.

And once the battle started, there would be casualties.

This made Monn hesitate.

It was not that Monn did not want people to die like a war.

But he did not want the Paladins to make meaningless sacrifices.

So after thinking it over,,

Monn said, “Retreat to San Lorenzo first.”

The Paladins looked at the night feline monsters in a daze,

Then they nodded in obedience.

The elf leader, Eiffel, saw Monn and the others retreat.

He could not let his elves fight against the night feline monsters who had lost their minds.

That wasn't valor, that was suicide.

Eiffel knew this very well.

He said to the elves behind her, “Let's all return to San Lorenzo as well.”

The elves behind her nodded obediently.

They didn't dare to go deep into the Elf Forest.

After all, the seemingly terrifying atmosphere made them hesitate.

After listening to Eiffel's order,

They all heaved a sigh of relief.

If they could avoid it, they should avoid the war first.

Monn retreated and told the Holy Knights to retreat back to San Lorenzo.

Elf leader Eiffel walked to Monn's side.

He bowed slightly and said, “Hi, sorry to bother you, Pope Monn.”

Monn nodded slightly, indicating that there was no problem.

Then, he summoned a Holy Knight and informed Jerome about the situation of the night feline monsters outside the Elf Forest.

After all, no one knew whether the night feline monsters on the outskirts of the Elf Forest would suddenly attack San Lorenzo.

Be vigilant.
