Chapter 2308 "Thugs"

The bell tower of St. Lumodi Church is 97 meters high. According to the free fall formula h=1/2gt2, and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s, it takes about 4 seconds and less than 5 seconds for a person to not fall from the top of the tower. It looks much faster than it takes half an hour to climb up.

Of course, most people will not choose this "landing" method. However, it takes at least 5 minutes to go down the stairs in the tower without stepping in the air. This time is enough for Garuda to dive from a high altitude. Come down and smash on the tower.

It would turn into a flame before dying, and in any case Georgiana regarded it as a kind of bomb. Although the bell tower had solid stone walls, she was not sure whether it would hold up, not to mention the hastily sealed top of the tower. The ones are bricks, which can easily be bombed open.

She didn't have time to explain, so she dragged Bonaparte down and rushed down. Not long after, there was another person behind them. It was Liffin Bowens, one of the "Knights" she canonized today, who was regarded as a Belgian "Knight". Prometheus", who stole "tinder" from the British - textile technology and machinery, he wants to build a factory in Ghent, but not only machines without workers, St. Catherine helps the knights to help widows and orphans, Exactly what he needed.

   Being able to escape the heavy blockade by the British and transport the equipment back to China shows that he is extraordinary. Now that the situation is not good, he is the first to follow.

   Not long after, there were scattered footsteps upstairs, and she was a little worried about Archbishop Roqueello.

   "Go down yourself!" said Georgiana to Bonaparte, wanting to go back by mistake.

   "Their target is us, go!" he roared and ordered.

   She was frightened by the deafening sound, turned her head and continued to run downstairs. Through the window on the tower, she saw the crowd downstairs screaming, and there were signs of running away.

She reassured herself that when it was all over and the Oblivion Curse, these people would soon forget what happened, but the burn from the magical flames could cause irreparable damage to the tower, and that wasn't something that a Restoration Curse could fix. .

   There was a sudden "boom", and she felt the vibration, and then a flame rushed in through the downstairs window, and shot up due to the "chimney effect".

   She quickly raised her wand, cut a path through the flames, and continued down the steps in the scorching hot air.

   "What about the International Statute of Secrecy? They are not afraid of being seen!" Bonaparte cursed in a low voice from behind.

   "That's for people like me." Georgiana said without looking back, "When the group of people outside catch us, they will sell it for a good price."

   He stopped talking.

   She didn't explain more, she still saved some energy and went downstairs, and at least there was room to use when she was on the ground.

   "Come out, witch!" Maria shouted from outside.

   "It seems that their target is me..." Before Georgiana finished speaking, she found a person not far away, holding a meteor hammer in his hand, looking very unfriendly.

   "Get out of the way." Bonaparte pulled her behind him and drew his sword out.

   She wanted to say that she could use magic against a Muggle, but when she looked back at Bowens, he had drawn his saber too.

   "Belgium doesn't need a king," said the man who used the meteor hammer, then smashed it at Bonaparte.

   Bonaparte crouched down, dodging the blow, and the meteor hammer slammed into the pillar.

   "The Batavia Corps," shouted Bowens. "They want Belgium to be a United States like America."

   This was really new, but Georgiana didn't want to worry about it anymore, she turned around and ran upstairs again, and on the way she met the people who were descending, and they were surprised to see her coming back.

   "Someone stopped downstairs," said Georgiana.

  The bell suddenly rang. The bell was heard in the distance, and it was deafening when you heard it inside the clock tower, but the strange bird that was entrenched outside flew farther because of the loud noise.

   "Downstairs..."

   "What?" Georgiana saw the other's mouth opening and closing, but couldn't hear what he said.

   "Who is the man downstairs?"

   It took a while for Georgiana to regain her hearing, but just after hearing those words, the bell upstairs rang again.

   "The Batavia Corps," said Georgiana after a while.

   The other party showed a surprised expression.

   "Is it Pishkel?"

  Georgiana knew who Pishkeru was, one of the most radical royalists, but how could he have anything to do with the Batavia Legion that supported the founding of the United States?

   "How many people?" the other party asked.

   "Just one," said Georgiana.

   He walked around to the front, listened to the movement downstairs, then turned to her and said, "It doesn't sound like a person."

   "The Guards are here, they can't run away." Someone looked downstairs through the window.

   "We can't let the first ruler face the assassins alone." The "Knights" drew their swords and shouted "Go!"

   Then Georgiana watched them "rescue".

   For a while, she didn't know whether she should go up or down. Maria outside was still clamoring for her to go out to fight. The key was how did she get out?

   At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds again, blocking the sunlight that had just fallen from the clouds, and there was also the sound of muffled thunder.

   Then the thunder became more and more intense, and there were flashes of lightning.

  The strange birds noticed the abnormality and began to run away screaming strangely. At this time, Maria sang a song, and the Garuda quickly became quiet, and then began to approach the tower again.

   The bell tower made a loud noise again, but the birds didn't fly away anymore.

   Just when she was at a loss, she found some bricks left by the previous workers, she floated them, and then used "10,000 bullets" to aim at the birds.

  Two birds were unsuspecting and were hit, they fell to the ground, but the other birds flew away.

   At this time, she could hear the sound of fighting downstairs even upstairs.

  After a brief silence, the heavy rain fell, and a flash of lightning suddenly fell, smashing the strange bird like a silver tree.

  Maybe because she was too close, the hairs on her body stood up.

   Then two more lightning bolts fell, Maria scolded "Witch, you are a coward", and then left.

   Soon the movement downstairs also quieted down, she did not rush downstairs, but sat on the steps.

   After a while, Bonaparte and Augereau came up together, and their expressions looked as if they were going to arrest her.

   "Where have you been the night before?" Bonaparte asked again.

   "Walk." She said blankly, "I didn't tell anyone your next whereabouts."

   He looked at her silently.

   "I'm angry because you can't accept me."

   "I've seen you turned into a monster." He growled angrily.

   "It's not the same, I'm that kind of person." She said angrily, "I'm not as dignified and elegant as you think."

   He didn't seem to understand what she was talking about.

   "Are you trying to say that I'm in that line of work?"

   "I just told you, don't do that in public!" He growled, "You pick up the wine in other men's hands and drink it, you used to..."

   "I don't think I have anything to do here." The first French swordsman turned his head and left.

   "How was I? Say it!" she asked aggressively.

  He thought she was unreasonable, turned his head and followed Augero downstairs.

   She sat there alone.

   Muggles do not have the magic power of wizards to make objects float, but they invented propulsion systems, which can be used on rockets to launch space shuttles to explore space, and on missiles, which can be used to destroy targets, war and killing,

  When Newton discovered the law of universal gravitation, did he think there would be such a day?

   She felt sad and tired, so she fell asleep against the wall.

   "Go to sleep, when you wake up, everything will be fine."

   She seemed to hear Albus saying, this kind of thing is like Santa Claus, only children can believe it, she won't believe it.

   But if you don't wake up, you will still face the same bad world when you wake up, so what's the use of falling asleep? It's better to open your eyes and solve the problem.

   So she stood up again, slowly leaning against the wall, and came downstairs.

   When she arrived, the guards were checking the people on the ground to see if there were any living victims.

   "They all took poison," Figel said. "They never thought about leaving alive."

  Georgianna listened in shock.

   "Do it quickly, and don't let their blood stain the holy place," said Bonaparte grimly.

   She felt that she could not bear it, not because she saw death, she also participated in the war.

   So she passed out, hoping she wouldn't wake up in a place like the tower.
