Chapter 0478: Hurry to Prepare for Battle

The sudden encounter clearly caught both sides off guard.

The two thieves reacted flexibly, their expressions still sluggish and surprised, but the black iron dagger in their hands had already slashed through the ghost's body with a fierce wind.

There was a muffled sound of "poof", but the extremely sharp dagger seemed to be pierced into the soft jelly, and it was weak and powerless.

"Oops, it's the Ghost's physical damage reduction!" The two thieves were shocked, and immediately understood that the few blows just now did not really hurt each other.

The frightened and attacked ghost's vague face suddenly erupted, and it was obvious that its signature piercing scream would resound through the world in the next moment. At this terrifying moment, a brilliant white light lit up on the ghost.

This glorious aura with a hint of divine meaning had just shrouded the ghost, and the ghost's ethereal and vague figure dissolved at an extremely fast speed like a boiling soup pouring snow. This kind of divine damage is not something that the avatar body can dodge at all.

"Blessing Technique", a first-order divine technique, can comprehensively improve the body quality of the recipient, but for the undead, it is a terrible torture comparable to holy water.

Although Ethorn is a knight of the Guardians, he can basically achieve instantaneous attacks on this kind of first-order divine art, so at the critical moment, he almost didn't think twice about flicking the aura of the "Blessing Technique" divine magic to the undead.

"Let's go...... Let's go......"

The three of them were well-informed, and they didn't care about hiding their figures, so they rushed out of the illusion barrier and ran into the distance.

Their judgment was extremely wise, and almost as soon as the glorious divine aura took effect within the illusion barrier, the castle of the undead in the distance boiled.

In the area where the undead are entrenched, there is a fluctuation of divine spells, which is not hesitant to pour a scoop of water into the anthole, and the nest is blown up immediately!

The low-level undead who were working the castle of the dead were still looking around in confusion, while the ghosts, ghosts, and resentful spirits who had a keen sense had already begun to cry out angrily. Several cold and evil spiritual fluctuations quickly swept across the entire sky and earth, and began to trace the source of the divine spell fluctuations just now.

Soon, these mental fluctuations locked onto a space near the edge of the illusion barrier. There are not only the slightest fluctuations of the divine spell that have not completely subsided, but also the remnants of soul ashes after the ghost has been extinguished.

In an instant, the castle of the dead screamed, and the ghosts and resentful spirits flying in the air seemed to have received orders, and under the leadership of a high-ranking banshee who rushed out of the castle, they pursued in a certain direction. And a terrifying corpse witch in a black burqa also appeared silently in a bush, taking a strange eyeball-shaped alchemical object from the ground and examining it silently in front of him.

……

Looking at the ugly corpse witch's face that almost completely occupied the light screen in front of him, Grand Priest couldn't help but lean back slightly. Then, in the gloomy sneer of the corpse witch, the light screen was so steep that it dimmed, exploded into a sky of light and shadow, and slowly disappeared into the air.

After half a cup of tea, no one in the tent spoke, still looking blankly at the already empty air, silently silent.

In the end, it was a knight with an extremely tall body, short hair, and an angular face who stepped forward and whispered, "My lord, why don't you let me bring a few people to pick it up?" ”

Judging by the style of the armor and insignia on his body, it is clear that he is a fellow of the same order as Knight Etthorn.

Grand Priest shook his head gloomily, and turned to his side, "Did you pass on the image just now?" ”

A priest dressed as a clerk bowed and said, "It's been passed on." I guess by this time, the nearest church in Pluto has already received our message! ”

"Hmm!" Grand Priest answered in a low voice, turned to the other side of the tent and asked, "When will the space marker be set up?" ”

An elder who looked like a scholar stroked his chest and responded, "Thirteen hours, Your Excellency! ”

Grand Priest sighed in an inaudible voice, it seemed that the night was going to be extremely difficult. But soon he regained his spirits, and immediately summoned several knight chiefs and began to arrange the defense behind him.

Unlike the teleportation circles that mages are good at, the Church forces prefer to use magic circles guided by spatial signs. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own merits.

Once the teleportation circle is built, as long as the hedron supply is available, it can be used almost unlimitedly, but the consumption of magic crystals is staggering. Except for a large organization with an astonishing resource reserve like the Mage Guild, which dares to use the teleportation circle as a conventional means to transfer personnel and materials, other organizations and forces, even a few big churches, dare not be so extravagant.

The space road marker is much simpler.

There is a magic circle built inside each church and church, and as long as a spatial signpost with a guiding effect is built here, it can teleport some personnel and materials in the form of a simple teleportation array. However, the establishment of space landmarks needs to be combined with the local spatial and dimensional structure at that time, and needs to go through a large number of calculations, as well as profound plane and space knowledge, so it can only be completed by knowledgeable scholars.

Therefore, although the establishment of space road markers consumes less resources, it can have extremely high requirements for construction personnel and consume more time. It's a pity that the space marker can only be built on a fixed ground, otherwise they can take a boat to the ocean and run a few miles away to set up a space marker on the ship.

But at this juncture, there is no time to complain.

Now that the enemy has been alarmed, it is inevitable that the enemy will come out to search, and then the newly established camp will face the onslaught of the enemy.

It takes 13 hours to set up the space sign, and they only need to hold on until it is built, and Archbishop Van Crees, who remains in the Puruto Church, can teleport directly to Half Moon Island through the Guò Divine Circle. As a level 20 Saint-Order Archbishop, sweeping away these undead must be a breeze in the ploughing court.

However, if this space landmark is destroyed during construction, then Archbishop Van Creis will have to travel here by boat, and it will take at least 11 days. It is estimated that at that time, their bones were completely weathered!

With a firm conviction, the knight cathars, priests and missionaries in the camp gathered one after another, and helped the temporarily hired mercenaries to begin to fortify the camp, and a small fortified fortress was temporarily arranged along the tip of the crescent.

Large quantities of supplies were brought down from hired merchant ships, heavy wooden crates were transported to the front line as barracks, and various special armor with the brand of the church was distributed one by one, and every combatant was armed. The priests and priests began to gather in the center of the camp to make a large prayer of holy water, and distribute it to the knights who were on the front line one by one.

This improvised holy water, although not as effective as the holy water obtained during the prayer service in the church, is superior to the large amount, and is the best way to deal with the large crowd of the dead.

When they had finished their preparations, the last rays of the distant sky had vanished beneath the surface of the sea, and the entire camp was plunged into a dark shadow.

In order to delay the undead from discovering them, all campfires were extinguished, and all combatants were fully prepared for battle. Even the priests, who had always preferred light and soft robes, put on sturdy chain mail, took up heavy shields, maces, and flails, and formed a second line of defense with the knights.

There was hardly a glimmer of light in the dark sky, only the sound of the sea tide blowing in the breeze in the distance, rippling and rippling. 300 meters away is the dense and gloomy jungle, where only the shadows of the black holes are floating and swaying, and nothing can be seen clearly.

An hour passed...... There was no movement around

Two hours passed...... There was still no movement around

Three hours passed...... In the distance, deep in the jungle, the ghost's signature eerie grin loomed

The crowd waited in silence.

The shadows of the jungle in front of me were shaking and stretching. Under the dark sky, the entire jungle seemed to suddenly come to life, stretching its body with teeth and claws, intending to choose people to devour.

The air that drifted through the sea breeze was filled with a rotten, evil aura, a signal of the gathering of the undead, and a sign of an imminent attack by the undead.

"Raise the Fire ......"

The firm and deep voice of the High Priest of suddenly sounded, and in response to the sound of more than a dozen bonfires that had already been prepared in various parts of the camp.

When fighting, the undead can not need any light, and even have an extreme aversion to bright light, but the sorcerers, church knights, and mercenaries who are human beings need light. This is not only the need for them to fight, but also the need for their hearts!

More than a dozen deflagrating flames that rose into the sky instantly illuminated the world, and also reflected countless shadows of pupils and ghosts in front of the camp.

It's a huge army with no end in sight, made up of tens of thousands of corpses that should have rotted underground. They staggered in the direction of the camp with a slow, but uninterrupted pace, accompanied by skeletons.

At this time, the people waiting in the camp were not only shocked by the number of undead creatures, but also glad that the camp location was chosen correctly. This is where the crescent moon of Half Moon Island is located, where the terrain narrows, and the path is covered with loose sands and strangely shaped reefs, forming a natural barrier.

The swarming zombie skeletons were forced to huddle together here, flocking along the narrow passage less than 100 meters wide towards the heavily guarded camp. Along the way, zombie skeletons are constantly squeezed off the beach by their companions and planted in the undulating tides, which does not wash away, but also greatly slows them down.

Although it is impossible for zombie skeletons to drown, as low-level undead creatures, they are still naturally afraid of water, which is good news for the lonely camp defenders.

This time, the High Priest of came with all the forces of the Righteous Church gathered in the nearby sea, although the strength is not the same, but it is still not to be underestimated. Before the war, the Grand Priest of also made a statistic: a total of 7 priests, 25 priests, 11 missionaries, 41 church knights, 63 mercenaries, and the rest were a few scholars and servants.

As for the merchant ships, which were not the property of the Church, they unloaded their supplies and set sail again, waiting for their summons in the nearby seas. Of course, if the next day they were still there!

This kind of strength is not too small, and it should be more than enough to deal with an evil undead force hiding on an isolated island overseas! It is a pity that the previous cultist incident caused such a great alarm, and it is conceivable that the enemy is not only the one I have seen today. Therefore, as to whether he can hold out until tomorrow's dawn, Grand Priest is still worried.
