Talos had lived on the Afaron plane for four years, and in addition to collecting faith, he had spent the rest of his time training martial arts and pleasures, and had already mastered the scimitar as a weapon of specialization.
Combat Specialty: Dual-weapon combat and the sharpness of the Froststeel Scimitar itself make Talos look at it with ease under siege by zombies and skeletons, often slicing a zombie's body open in a single turn, or breaking a skeleton into a pile of bones, but that's about it.
Because there were so many undead creatures coming in from all directions, according to Talos's eyesight, their number had exceeded three hundred, and there were many more pouring in from outside.
The closer Talos got to the Mother Undead Tree, the more undead creatures rushed towards him.
Not far away, on another battlefield in the dungeon, the vampire used the amplification of the Mother Tree of the Undead to block the combined attack of the Naga Witch and the Mermaid Warlock, and a series of spell aura and magic power fields shot and collided in the seawater, stirring the originally calm sea water into a turbulent current.
Throughout, however, the area where the Mother Tree of the Dead is located is protected by a force of vampires.
A skeleton pounced from a distance, clinging to Talos's tail, and more zombies and skeletons pounced on him, trying to kill him in this way.
Talos cursed, and the well-developed muscles of his tail contracted and twisted, helping his master swim upwards for nearly 30 feet in an instant, and by the way, he escaped the ensuing siege.
At the same time, Naga's thick tail shook off in the sea and slammed into the other skeleton, and the strength of the second-order bloodline knight and the furious tail strike caused the two skeletons to become a pile of white bones the moment they collided.
Just as Talos was about to adopt another tactic, a dead light mixed with divine aura shot from outside the cavern and landed in the dungeon.
All the undead creatures that were hit by this light immediately froze in place, and then fell like dominoes.
"Hell!"
Talos heard the vampire curse, and this was the first time he had seen a similar panic on the vampire's fish.
"Sure enough, it's here!"
A delighted but suppressed angry voice came from the door of the dungeon, and then three humans swam into the palace.
Through their different attire and atmosphere, Talos preliminarily judged that their professions were Priest, Paladin, and Bloodline Knight, among which the human priest wore gray robes, held a scepter, and had a holy emblem pinned to his chest, on which was a cross-giant scythe pattern of two handles made of white bone.
The emblem emits a faint glow that helps the human priest gain the ability to breathe underwater for a short time.
The other two were dressed in light armor that made it easy to move around the seabed, and each held a two-handed heavy sword and a scythe.
Talos finally understood why the vampire had suddenly cursed, because the three humans who made up a standard church adventure party were Death Temple clergy, and none of them had low class ranks, and they all seemed to be at a high level.
- It is difficult for low-level professionals to move in the deep sea or under the sea, let alone fight, even with the help of magic items.
The Temple of the Dead has always been the main force in the eradication of the Spider Cult, and the Grim Reaper has even written this into his teachings, urging every priest and believer to destroy every necromancer and every undead creature they see.
The Grim Reaper is a very ancient god, and it is even rumored that he is a god who survived the primeval era from the two major god systems of dragons and Titans, but the official Death Temple has never made any response to this statement, and he holds the two priesthoods of [Death] and [Sleep], and has powerful divine powers.
The Spider Cult is incompatible with the gods because it blasphemes its soul and touches the root of faith.
From the god of order and knights, the god of agriculture and harvest, and the goddess of love in the human camp, the goddess of the moon and the goddess of hunting in the elven camp, to the steppe father and the lord of war in the orc camp, there is only one attitude towards the spider sect, and that is to exterminate them all.
For the Grim Reaper, the Spider Cult's crime is not just as simple as giving birth to a third belonging to the soul (becoming an undead creature), but more importantly, the Spider Cult's crazy worship of the [Death] personification of the "Death Spider Queen" directly touched the Grim Reaper's priesthood realm!
The priesthood is the foundation of the gods, and there is no room for a second person to touch it.
In the world of Sainz, a deity can have multiple priesthoods, but a priesthood can only correspond to one deity.
Overlapping priesthoods mean an inevitable divine war, which will continue until one side falls.
Death has always been the realm of Oliver's priesthood, and once other gods show interest in the priesthood of [Death] and are ready to extend the realm to death, they will instantly provoke a frenzied attack by an ancient god with powerful divine power.
"Heretics, meet the punishment of death!"
The human bishop swept his eyes and had already seen the situation in the dungeon clearly, not to mention that the aura of the water dragon, one of the six primordial gods, was very obvious, and there was no doubt that they were in the same camp when facing the spider sect and the undead creatures.
A sacred and bright light source emerged from the top of the Death Temple's Bishop's Scepter, and together with an aura of serenity, enveloped the entire dungeon.
Under the illumination of this light, most of the undead creatures in the dungeon, including the zombies that were still violently surrounding Talos from all directions in the last second, all went limp and reverted to corpses.
The High Divine Technique of the Temple of Death - Soul Rest!
At the same time, the Templars and Paladins each charged at the vampire with a terrifying scythe over seven feet in length and a two-handed heavy sword.
"The ocean, it's my domain!"
The vampire screamed, and the necromantic impact mixed with the sea created a large tumbling current, disrupting the progress of the two knights of the Death Temple.
"Ridiculous! The ocean is my lord's domain!"
Dolores sneered and muttered a prayer, followed by a stream of icy power pouring down from the void.
"Dyson, you're in charge of destroying that evil tree. ”
Due to the fact that the Templars could move far faster than vampires in the sea, and their combat power was greatly reduced, the Human Bishop ordered the Templars to disengage from the battle, while he and the Paladins stood at a distance to carry out ranged attacks.
The addition of the Bishop and the Paladin immediately forced the vampire to deal with the attacks of four professionals of the same rank at the same time, and at first he was able to spare his energy to release several powerful necromancy spells to fight back, and as time went on, his spells switched from offensive to defensive spells such as bone shields, and even the power that had been guarding the Mother Tree of the Undead since the beginning of the battle gradually disappeared until it disappeared completely.
The Templar waved his arms at Talos and the others, and said in a loud voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is an evil product of the Spider Sect, and it must not remain in the world, please join me to destroy it completely." ”
"Eradicating undead creatures is the unshirkable responsibility of every professional. Talos replied with righteous words, and by the way, he was given a chance to get close to the Mother Tree of the Dead.
"No, you can't ruin her, she's—" The vampire became agitated at the sight of the Templars, Talos, and the fish-man mercenaries who had survived the zombie and skeleton siege less than fifteen years ago.
Distraction is always taboo in battle, and it is even more fatal when under siege!
Dolores used the ubiquitous sea water to create huge ice prisms that slammed into the vampire, and the paladin seized the opportunity to emit a dark light.
The high-level magic of the Temple of Death, the wailing of Hades!
The vampire wailed—the Cry of Hades would not cause any physical damage to the target, but would only cause them a pain, a very intense pain—and the pain and torture would make him mentally weakened, severed his spiritual connection with the Mother Tree of the Undead, and his strength fell to its original level.
"Wait, what's that? vampires have other helpers?"
On the other side, when the group approached the flowerbed less than ten feet, a bluefish man suddenly pointed at the flowerbed and screamed in horror.
He can't be blamed for this, since entering the dungeon, the things they have encountered have become stranger and stranger, the mother tree of the undead that actively digests the corpse to grow, the fruit in the shape of a baby, and the companion who suddenly goes crazy because of eating the fruit by mistake, and has a special desire for flesh and blood, the white fishman vampire......
So the bluefish people instinctively shouted at the slightest occurrence, but thankfully, it wasn't the vampire's helper.
"Like a rift?"
Talos looked at the place where the bluefish man was pointing, and saw that it was something about half a foot long, which could be roughly defined as a rift, located on the surface of the flower bed, through which the sea water continued to disappear, gradually forming a slender whirlpool.
Both Talos and the Templar Knights had a habit of familiarizing themselves with the environment before entering an unfamiliar area, and Talos was very sure that when they entered the dungeon just now, there was absolutely no such rift on the flower bed, and there was no reason why he could not see such a conspicuous vortex.
"That's ...... Spatial Rift!"
After breaking the link to the Mother Tree of the Undead, the vampire could no longer resist the siege of four professionals of the same rank at the same time, and was soon killed by the Bishop of the Temple of Death, who followed Dolores at a glance to recognize the nature of the rift.
"Yes, it's a spatial rift!" the human bishop said, nodding.
"Why is the spatial rift here?" Talos asked curiously.
Space does not appear casually, space shattering is a very scary thing, and one of the legendary spells of the space faction spell is to use space shattering to cut the target into flesh foam scattered all over the universe.
"I don't know. The Human Bishop replied crisply, "But I know it's time to destroy this evil thing." ”
However, as soon as the words fell, the sea water in front of the flower bed quickly parted, and a few bubbles appeared, and more spatial cracks appeared, and they were connected into one piece, like a spider web.
