158. Army

After listening to Yusaku Kamekura's report, the prime minister was silent for a long time and asked, "Do you mean that you want me to use special authority to mobilize the Self-Defense Forces to encircle and suppress the druids?"

Kamekura Yusaku did not expect the prime minister to pick out his words so clearly, so he had to say, "I am also a cultivator, so I will not make such a request." However, if these druids are allowed to leave safely, what is Japan's international prestige, the international status we want, and the powerful image we want, will it all be in vain? Whether or not the army is used, this time, the reputation of the Japanese spiritual world has been completely ruined, and as for other matters, please ask the Prime Minister to decide. ”

Although Kamekura Yusaku was a powerful agitator, he was still very saddened by the huge casualties of these cultivators he had gathered. However, the druids did not press in, and after destroying all 360 people in the Demon Dance Gathering Circle and more than 30 ninjas lurking around, the druids did not pursue the cultivators who hurriedly retreated from the side paths. Instead, they occupied the temple and destroyed the traces left by the previous practitioners to commemorate the predecessors who died in the siege of the druids, and then, they scattered their hands and set up defenses around, looking at their appearance, it seemed that they wanted to break through this evil formation made of the blood sacrifice of more than a thousand cultivators.

Almost alone, Sophocles destroyed the entire Demon Dance Spirit Gathering Array. But when Sophocles calmed down from the agitated emotions, he was also a little afraid, he had at least 120 abilities just now, but it was precisely because his strength was too strong that the extra 20 became the last big straw that broke the camel's back. Sophocles apologized to Bernard and Sun Digui repeatedly, saying that he had just been reckless. But everyone just smiled and patted him on the shoulder. Sophocles's real age is quite not young, but now he is still the bloody young druid who was less than 30 years old in his mentality. In front of such veteran druids as Bernard and Sun Digui, he humbly admitted his mistakes.

"Hmm...... Drink saliva, wait a moment to break the formation, the spell is too long for me to stand it. And now you're the only one who can lead this super spell, so don't drain your saliva for the sake of apology. Sun Digui casually threw a jar of black tea to Sophocles and said lightly.

In front of them was an even more sinister formation, an evil formation that had been in operation for many years. A kilometer away from the temple, it was almost the area of effect of the formation. Compared to this formation, the Demon Dance Spirit Gathering Array just now was a joke.

Although the Demon Dance Spirit Gathering Array is hung with two names that seem to be a combination of Xuan He's names, "Demon Dance" and "Spirit Gathering", it is actually a formation that gathers spiritual energy to provide for ghosts to attack. Although the power is not small, due to the lack of a magic weapon of the level of blood relics to purify and activate energy, it is a little weaker after all. Originally, the three magic weapons that were originally planned to be released on the second line to assist the operation of the Cloud Spirit Mountain Breaking Array. Since the difference in strength is too far, I am afraid that it will not be able to cause any trouble to the druids. Kamekura's idea of removing the formation and asking the military to intervene is correct at this level.

But the formation in front of him was different. No matter what it was called back then, after so many years of operation, the formation itself has been integrated with the surrounding mountains and rivers, and what rises from the ground is not water vapor, but a faint blood mist, and the wisps of dust clouds floating in the air are all formed by the convergence of resentful spirits and broken souls. Under the training of resentful spirits and yin energy, the creatures that originally lived in this land survived tenaciously, but they were transformed into another species. The negative emotions that have accumulated in their bodies are amplified hundreds of times, and struggle and contention become the main themes of their lives, and bloody killings abound. Strange and ferocious animals such as squirrels with tusks and a meter long, two-headed poisonous snakes, three-eyed forest vultures and so on fill the land. They cannot survive without the nourishment of the aura that is entangled with the ground, so this small square of land constitutes a special magical realm of evil. The result is a unique ecology. Even the trees had been altered by the poisonous aura for too long, their bark had turned leaden gray, and their natural mottling had become a strange pattern, as if each tree had become a totem pole marked with spells.

The circle has become like this, which makes everyone feel a little chilled. To put it simply, this is the land that has been cursed, forsaken, and tainted by evil. In Europe, when the Holy See stormed Transylvania Castle, it suffered heavy losses in a similar environment. And now, not only this land, but also in this land infected by the power of the formation, there are several nodes that continuously exude evil energy to promote the continuous operation of the formation.

"Sophocles, the Great Rejuvenation Technique is up to you. In any case, at least 30% of the strength left is ready to deal with the battle that follows. Sun Digui ran around the vast formation, carefully studied the arrangement of the formation, and then instructed Sophocles. The formation is not without flaws, and the formation nodes in the southwest seem to be showing signs of loosening. So, they chose this place as the breakthrough point.

Sophocles looked into the distance. Although the second line of formation was withdrawn, the Japanese cultivators were still watching the situation here from the top of a mountain peak that was quite far away, with the current strength of the Japanese cultivators, they could not pose a threat to the druids at all, but they were afraid that they would come out and make trouble when the formation was broken. Sophocles thought that Sun Digui was referring to such a situation, and nodded.

Sun Digui set up the Soul Chaser Scepter and stood less than 100 meters away from the power range of the formation. And Sophocles was right behind him. Several melee druids such as Murray and Pauletta guarded Sun and Sophocles, and several other druids, including Anwen "Pine", gave the two of them at a certain distance, and also guarded against the counterattack of those Japanese practitioners who had retreated. It will take them quite a long time to open the gap in this formation.

The Great Rejuvenation Technique is a spell that is used to inject a certain amount of natural power into the body, so that the body can rejuvenate its original vitality. This is a spell that is usually used to heal minor injuries, but when it is used here, to awaken the hearts of those trees, so that they can become green and vibrant again, it also destroys the combination of formation and geography, and basically, the effect is equivalent to splashing holy water to purify the land. Speaking of holy water, Sun Digui had prepared some in advance, but he was unable to purify such a large piece of land, at most, it was used for the final stage of the charge when he finally approached the formation node. As long as one formation node is destroyed, even if the entire formation cannot be dissolved, at least the system of the formation is destroyed in one direction, and then it is not too difficult to break through to the core of the formation by other methods and rescue those druids.

Letting Sun Digui stand in front with the Soul Chaser Scepter to resist all the formation attacks was not the situation that Bernard liked the most, Sun Digui has probably recovered his strength in 6 to 7 battles now, and he is far from being in the best condition. But he is the only one who can freely use shamanic spells to extend the Soul Attack Immunity, the Soul Chasing Scepter, to those he wants to shelter. Only in this way could Sophocles concentrate on using the Great Rejuvenation Technique to purify such a vast mountain forest, and the few people standing in front of them could concentrate on sniping the demonized animals and advancing little by little.

After Bernard blessed Sophocles and Sun Digui with an activation spell each, their formation breaking operation began. As Sophocles' powerful chant rang out, circles of energy fluctuations that were almost visible to the naked eye surged towards the formation like a tide. If it weren't for Sun Digui's reminder to keep a little more, the powerful Sophocles might have had a stronger performance. The force of nature is like a stream of clean water, washing by, and the trees that have been contaminated with evil breath are shaking and trembling when they come into contact with the power of nature, but the places that have come into contact with the force of nature are slowly transformed into the normal bark of the trees. One, two until a small forest. In the hands of other druids, the Great Rejuvenation Technique may be a gentle and silent spell, but in the hands of Sophocles, it adds a bit of power. At this moment, Sophocles is like a natural king, condemning these people who have been tempted by evil and betrayed and betrayed, but he also gives them forgiveness, giving them the opportunity and strength to live again.

A demonized giant squirrel jumped out and was crushed by Pauletta. Compared to plants, which can only be baptized in situ by the forces of nature, these animals have full freedom. The demonized animals seem to have little interest in reverting to their original form, from the sizeable demonized wolves and demonized foxes to the negligible marching ants, which are almost negligible in size, and these animals have attacked the druids against the turbulence of the forces of nature.

Gerald "Pangolin" and "Frog" Reis immediately transformed and replenished, using their unique abilities to deal with those insects. Pauletta and Murray are also deformed, which allows them to swing and bite with quicker movements and more powerful swings and bites to keep Sun and Sophocles from being directly attacked. Sun Digui, on the other hand, fully demonstrated the sophistication of a veteran druid and healer, and almost at the same time, everyone around him was encased in a spirit armor spell and a shamanic spell, Necromancy Expulsion Technique. The Soul Chaser Scepter also seemed to feel the evil breath and the sound of the soul cry, and although there was no wind in the mountains and forests, it still opened its beetle and hunted. Strands of fragmented souls were detained, absorbed, and transformed into pure soul energy power and transmitted to Sun Digui.

Although it was not overwhelming, at least the druids' first steps to break the formation were extremely successful and solid.

The sound of the propellers cutting through the air caught everyone's attention, and four gunships flew in this direction. And the Japanese cultivators who had retreated to the back of the valley also seemed to be ready to move. The Japanese cultivators actually asked the military to intervene? Bernard frowned, looked at the people who were still concentrating on breaking the formation, and took out his phone to send a message that had been prepared a long time ago, to two people in different places.
