Chapter 290: The Undead Army Invades

Thank you Datang Xiaomin for 1 monthly pass!

……………………

At this time, in the Temple of Light in Aston City, all the paladins and soldiers affiliated with the Temple of Light were neatly arranged in several teams.

"The number of undead is beyond my imagination, and the Templar's reinforcements have not yet arrived, so today we must cooperate with Brumman's soldiers to protect the city from the destruction of the undead."

Old Bishop Brown glanced around at the soldiers lined up below and said in a deep voice.

He had received feedback from the patrols that a large number of undead were gathering outside of Aster.

As long as you're not stupid, you'll know what those guys are aiming for.

That's right, it's the capital of Bruman: Aston City.

But the bad thing is that at this time, the Bright Temple headquarters is in some trouble, and it can't spare the strength to take care of this place for the time being.

In other words, they must rely on the forces of the city to resist the undead creatures who are attacking.

That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?

The undead strike, and then the Temple headquarters is in eerie trouble.

It can't be a coincidence, it must be those guys who show their tails and secretly carry out that terrible plan.

Beneath the light, there is still terrible darkness.

Thinking of this, Old Bishop Brown's face couldn't help but become even more gloomy.

The Reverend Roland, who he took out of the city today, should be fine, after all, they were staying in that church.

"Delvin, it's up to you to fend off the undead! As for the others, pick a few and go out with me to get rid of the necromancers who manipulate the undead. ”

Old Bishop Brown groaned and said to a paladin beside him.

This is the only way. The number of those undead is too much, and if they rely on the established forces, it is still unknown whether they can be defended.

But if he can find the source of the manipulation of the undead, this problem will be solved.

"But...... Bishop Brown, there's ............"

When the others heard this, they couldn't help but gasp.

They all knew what was going on outside the city right now. Plunging headlong into the army of the undead is simply an act of seeking death.

"In order to save the inhabitants of Aston, it is necessary to pay some price, do you feel the fear?"

But before they could finish their sentences, they were abruptly interrupted by the old Bishop Brown, and ushered in those deep blue pupils.

As soon as the words fell, there was a deathly silence all around, and no one wanted to speak first.

"I see, fear of death. That's a very normal thing. ”

Old Bishop Brown groaned, and was about to turn away: "In that case...... Then let me go alone. ”

"No, I will follow Bishop Brown, and the Light will bless and shelter us. But are you willing to huddle here and watch your loved ones be devoured by the undead and then turned into a cold corpse?

No, I don't want to see that! ”

Before Old Brown had taken two steps, a bloody roar sounded in his ears.

The sound made him stop in his tracks. And look back.

When he turned his head, he saw the paladin who had been standing beside him standing out. He yelled at the rest of the paladins with excitement.

Most of the paladins in this branch of the Light Sanctuary were dead locals, so when they heard this roar, they immediately became excited, as if even an abyssal demon could destroy it when it came.

"No, I'm willing to follow Bishop Brown on that mission."

Accompanied by some influential voices emerging. The echo of the harmony gradually resounded in the crowd. Their group of paladins are also human, and once their morale rises, the fear in their hearts will dissipate a lot.

"No, I only need a few people, too much is not good. Others are here to protect the city and protect their families.

The defense of Aston City cannot be without you. ”

A smile appeared on Old Brown's face, and he waved his hand at the group of paladins and said.

Although these guys moved him a little, he hadn't lost his mind yet, thousands of paladins seemed like a lot, but in front of the army of the undead, it was like a drop in the ocean, and it would be swallowed up in an instant.

And what follows is the assassination operation, and too many people will reveal their whereabouts instead.

"Yes, Bishop Brown!"

"Those of you who hear the names below, please stand up, and you will follow Bishop Brown on this sacred mission."

"Alec ............"

After some selection, it was decided that ten men would follow Bishop Brown Sr.

This is already the maximum, and if it goes any further, the team will look a little bloated.

"Go, children, and dispel the darkness with your light."

A glint flashed in Old Bishop Brown's eyes, and he said lightly, and then slowly walked towards the outside of the temple gate with ten paladins.

At the same time, the defending forces of the Bloomman capital are constantly mobilizing.

The messenger pigeons, carrying all kinds of information, also rose to the sky and flew in all directions.

As for the soldiers of Aston City, who have woken up from a long dream of peace and rushed to the huge walls on all sides with their weapons, there are many little ones ready for their first battle.

However, this strange change immediately caught the attention of the residents of Aston City.

After all, they are not blind, anyone who sees this scene will immediately realize: war has come!

As a result, the atmosphere in the city has become eerie, and the once lively streets have become extremely depressed, except for a few figures hurrying by from time to time.

………………

"Is that weird?"

Roland looked at the empty streets outside the carriage, and the doubts in his heart became more and more solemn.

When he arrived at the Sun Chamber of Commerce, he was told that Carol and Erin had left the city a few days ago to go to Van Doreen, the land of magic.

Is it really a coincidence?

Could it be that Old Carol already knew that the army of the undead was coming, so he left a few days ago.

If that's the case, then the more you think about it, the more difficult it becomes.

"Lord Baron, are we going back to Alfred Manor now?"

At this time. The chief maid in the carriage asked him in a low voice.

"Well, let's go back first."

Roland nodded and said.

Now he has no clue, so he can only go back to the manor and wait for news.

Grunting, the wheels of the carriage constantly hitting the hard stone floor, like some kind of melodic singing.

What's going on?

Roland looked out the carriage window at the huge palace. I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

But just as he was thinking about it, the voice of the thief Sass came to mind:

"Lord Roland, I have heard a very important news, a message about the third prince Lorenzo."

From Saas's voice, he could be heard running at high speed, presumably evading some patrolling guards.

"News about Lorenzo? Sasse, speak up and listen. ”

Roland was shocked and hurriedly asked in a low voice.

This is very important news at a time like this. As long as Lorenzo's intentions are understood, a large step will be taken.

Of course...... This premise is that Lorenzo is ready to rebel.

To be honest, Roland was not optimistic that Lorenzo would directly choose to rebel at this time, but took other methods, such as assassinating other heirs to the throne or something.

Because this is a good time to rebel, and it is a terrible time.

You don't know if the army of the undead will be able to breach the walls of Aston, and if they do, even if you take the throne. The same will fall into the situation of death.

"Well, I heard it from Lorenzo's conversation with an old man. Prince Lorenzo is working with Karen's forces, but now there are some surprises in this cooperation. ”

There was silence for a while, and then a small voice slowly sounded.

Lorenzo and Karen are working together, this is something that has been known for a long time.

But...... What happened between them?

Hearing this, Roland couldn't help but feel some doubts and curiosity in his heart.

But Roland didn't immediately urge Saas, because he knew that Sass was hiding from Lorenzo's guards.

It didn't take long. Sas's voice rang out again, and this time he didn't just shuff it out, but finished it all at once.

"Well, there was some surprise, Karen and those guys were hiding the army in the forest outside the city. But they are being attacked by a large number of undead today. According to their descriptions, the number of undead is simply overwhelming.

And their negotiation this time is for this undead attack.

Mr. Roland, what they said next really shocked me!

Because the old man's mention is: open a large teleportation array, let Karen's army destroy those undead creatures, and then take care of the old king by the way, and let Lorenzo ascend to the throne. ”

"He agreed?"

Roland was shocked and couldn't help but hurriedly ask.

If Lorenzo had agreed, it would have been the stupidest decision, because that guy would have sold the whole of Bruman.

After Karen's group of arrogant guys took over the capital of Brumandi, would they really give the throne to Lorenzo?

The answer is: no!

This is simply a very dangerous move to seek the skin of a tiger.

"Well, Mr. Roland, he's a stupid guy who has already agreed to this and is heading to the underground abandoned large teleportation array in Xicheng District."

"Damn it, Saas, hurry back to Alfred Manor."

Roland scolded secretly, then said a word to Sass and closed the call between the two.

Isn't that Lorenzo smart? How did he become so confused this time to make such a decision.

No, definitely going to stop that guy.

It's just that before he can head to the old large teleportation array, he must return to Alfred Manor and receive Alam and the others into the Ouroboros Ring.

Even if the undead broke through the city wall, he didn't have anything to worry about, and directly used the [World Map] to leave here.

As for the power of the royal family, he definitely can't draw it up, after all, the entire Aston City guard force is now preparing to defend against the invasion of the undead.

So to sabotage Lorenzo's stupid plan, Roland can only be left alone.

"Mary, now return to Alfred Manor as fast as you can, as much as you can......"

"Yes, Lord Baron."

Although the head maid Mary was surprised, she did not ask anything more, but tried to make the carriage under her feet as fast as the young baron requested.

As time passed, the carriage soon returned to the small aristocratic manor.

"Alam, bring your sister here, and the others as well, all gathered in the courtyard."

Roland jumped out of the carriage and yelled at the manor.

"Baron Roland, has something happened?"

"No, it's nothing, I just want you to move to a safe place, go get your sister with you."

At Roland's urging, the servants and the two brothers and sisters gathered in the courtyard of the noble manor, and even Saas rushed back from outside.

"Don't be surprised by what you see, it's going to be very safe, and I'll bring you back here when this is over."

Roland stood in front of everyone, looked around, and then said.

There was no objection to his decision, so Roland also proceeded very smoothly, and after a while, everyone was included in the Ouroboros Ring.

Now that the matter is settled, it is time to start trying to stop Lorenzo's plot.

Merely...... Until then, the Shadow Legionnaires who are staying in Maple Town must be brought here.

"It's the first time you've used that teleportation array...... Let's hope there aren't any surprises. ”

Roland sighed, took out the blue elite card of [World Map], and said softly.

Now he had to return to Maple Leaf Town, then turn on the teleportation array, and then drop the soldiers directly into the west city of Aston.

This is the quickest way and the only way at this point.

"Teleport, target, Maple Town."

As Roland's voice fell, with a buzz, his figure disappeared into the silver spatial portal.

But Roland didn't notice that after he left, a maid walked out of the corner of the manor, which should have been empty.

If Roland was still here, he would immediately recognize the maid as the one he bumped into when he interrogated Lorenzo's spies that day, and there would be no mistake because her plump chest was very impressive.

The maid came to the point where the portal had disappeared and whispered a few words thoughtfully, as if to confirm something.

"Looks like this Baron is really preparing something, and perhaps I should go with him...... Forget it, let's tell Her Royal Highness Princess SΓΉ about these things first. ”

The maid groaned, a strange smile on her face.

She took an abrupt step forward, and then her entire body dissolved into nothingness, vanishing into the void.
