Chapter Twenty-Four: Divine Impact
() What locust tree, Sophia doesn't know, so she's not in the mood to care about what locust tree is in front of now, these guys have made her unable to be distracted
Come with me, Joika wielded the sword in her right hand and clubbed Sophia with the elbow of her left hand
Sophia knew that the two worked closely together, one after the other in the sea of zombies with difficulty, Joika opened the way in front, he was under most of the pressure, his long sword swam repeatedly among the zombies that kept appearing in front of him, one zombie after another fell at his feet, he approached his target step by step like a ship breaking through the ice, and Sophia, although she didn't know where Joika was going, she had already given all her trust to the man behind her, and she also gave him the greatest support behind her back, and the two short swords resisted the attacks from behind again and again
The two backs had never been separated, and Joyka stepped forward, and Sophia followed suit, taking a step back, and the movements of the two of them were so tacitly that they were as if they were one
After a hard fight, Joyka finally stopped his progress, and by this time Sophia was exhausted, and of course Joyka's situation was not much better
Hurry in and go in at once, Joyka turned over and swapped places with Sophia while admonishing her
Sophia turned around and realized that Joyka had really found a good place
It was two twin locust trees, and the gap between the two trees was only space for one person, and behind the tree was a large rock, just blocking the exit of the other end of the two locust trees, and Sophia understood Joika's intention, he wanted her to enter the narrow space between the two trees, and block herself out, so that she would have enough time to cast large-scale light magic
It's a kind of idea that only a ghost like Joika can think of, because these two trees are so ordinary that no one has noticed them beforehand, but over the years as a bounty hunter, Joika has developed a knack for accurately spotting and taking advantage of the favorable environment in her neighborhood
The priestess immediately jumped between the two locust trees, and she removed the silver cross that hung around her neck and held it tightly in her hand
Give me two minutes, and Sophia asks Joika, who is blocking in front of her
The latter turned his back to her and nodded, as a promise to her, fearlessly facing the surging zombies, even though he knew he would be under the heaviest pressure for the next two minutes
Joyka bravely killed, wounded, and bled in front, while Sophia chanted a hymn to divine impact, a magic of light that casts mass killing casualties, in the relative safety of space
As the minutes passed, Joyka felt more and more powerless, the holy light blessed on his long sword had completely disappeared, but he knew that the light of the cross in the hand of the girl behind him was getting brighter and brighter as time passed......
Finally, as the last syllable of Sophia's mouth ended, the cross was lifted alof, and circle after circle of shockwaves spread outward from between the two locust trees, and the entire forest, including countless woods and the equally countless zombie legions, were all bathed in silver-white light
Uncle McLeck, did you notice, Julian pointed into the woods south of the castle?
Someone cast a 'divine impact', who has such a strong magical power of light, Mylek endured the pain from the wounds in both shoulders
At the same time, the three enemies in front of them also noticed the silver light that covered the woods, and the three-on-two battle on the castle tower had been one-sided due to the presence of the High Light Priest, but with the sudden injury of the High Priest and the appearance of a new enemy, the balance of victory was once again tipped in favor of the necromancer, and yet the silver-white light appeared without warning in the woods not far away, which brought a new shock to the necromancers who had thought they had won the victory— As long as it is a necromancer, no one does not know the terrible magic that can wipe out a large number of legions of mid- and low-level undead creatures in an instant, even high-level undead creatures and the necromancer himself will suffer permanent trauma that is difficult to recover as long as they are directly hit by this magic
No one knows why anyone would cast a Holy Shock from so far away, but the necromancer present is restless because it means another powerful priest will join the battlefield
Ray, who had just been released from the curse of fatigue, didn't pay attention to what those white lights were, he only knew that the opportunity was not to be missed, and the golden light flashed, only to see a crimson lightning rush straight towards Raqilu, the curse master, which made Ray suffer too much loss and became the primary target of the crimson spear, Raqilu saw the danger, he immediately retreated to dodge, but how could the wizard's reaction speed compare to the warrior, and the target of Ray's attack was not the necromancer himself, but the skeleton in his hand that could speed up the casting of the curse
The skeleton was shattered with a snap, and although Raqilu himself staggered the direct blow of the spear, the sharp head of the spear still scratched his magic robe, and a wisp of black blood floated into the air
Griston was about to come to his aid, but found Julian charging at him with two knightly swords, and Griston hurriedly swung the long whip he had just received from Lattic, and whipped down the corpses of the four soldiers in front of him - these four corpses were too close to him, so they were not used by Griston to explode the corpses, and after being whipped with the long whip, he suddenly stood up in front of Julian and Ray, who was chasing Raqi
Ray and Julian took a challenge, but they reacted very quickly, spears and swords pierced into the corpses of the two resurrected soldiers, however, these two bodies did not fall, and the appearance of the other two bodies that were not attacked changed dramatically, Ray and Julian looked at each other, and for fear of possible unknown danger, they drew their respective weapons from the corpses and jumped back a few steps
In front of everyone's eyes, the corpses have completed the process of metamorphosis: except for the ghouls, there are still some broken clothes left on their bodies, I believe no one will recognize these monsters with fangs and claws, they were still humans a few seconds ago, and they can actually turn human corpses into ghouls, which are much more useful than the original long whip that can only manipulate ghouls, and Griston strokes his newly acquired magic weapon
Raqilu, Griston, let me harvest their lives, you don't get in the way, a neglected enemy, the female elf corpse standing on the city wall made a hoarse voice
Raqilu and Griston immediately understood, they retreated to a relatively safe place, and stood side by side, Raqilu took out a magic scroll from his bosom, and at the same time forcibly tore it in half, and a spatial portal immediately appeared in front of them
The Magic Scroll is a special magic item on Olopa, which is a one-time consumable magician, priest, necromancer, Druids and even warriors who practice both magic and martial arts can make magic scrolls, the principle is very simple, the maker first casts a certain magic when making the magic scroll, and seals its effect and power on the sheepskin or paper with a certain pattern or text, and sets the conditions for touching, the magic scroll is born, as long as the magic is touched under certain conditions, the magic that is sealed in it will be released, and the magic scrolls made by people who cultivate different magic are also differentThere are also some single-line magic practitioners who will carry other types of magic scrolls on their bodies, just in case, just like the magic scroll that was just consumed by Raqilu, it seals the space magic in the qi system, and Raqi, as a pure dark magic practitioner, can only rely on the scroll to use space magic
The conditions for touching a scroll to release magic vary depending on the wishes, habits, and importance of the magic, and some scrolls have a secret language that requires the user to pronounce the secret language correctly to release magic, some require the user to sign a contract, some require the blood of certain people, and some require some kind of designated item...... However, in general, for ease of use and simplicity, most scrolls are set by the maker to trigger magic as soon as they are torn apart
Seeing that the two necromancers were about to escape, Ray and Julian rushed up at the same time, but the four ghouls stood in the way of the two, delaying the escape of the two necromancers, and seeing Raqilu walk directly into the spatial portal, Griston stepped forward, turned back to the banshee on the city wall and said: It's up to you, and then stepped into the other foot
After dealing with the four ghouls, Julian and Ray caught only a wisp of qi elemental fluctuations where Raqilu and Griston were standing, and the two necromancers actually ran away so fast, and we still haven't won the battle yet, the two of them thought unwillingly
At this time, they focused their attention on the banshee on the city wall, who had not intervened in the battle just now
The zombies scattered all over the mountains have been reduced to ashes, and Holy Shock is the high-level magic of the order system in the light system, which is the same as the fatigue curse that is cast at the same time not far away, and the chanting time is quite long, but the advantage is that it is extremely wide, this kind of magic, also known as tactical magic, is usually used when the two armies are fighting
Joyka sat down wearily next to the locust tree, his body covered in blood - zombies don't bleed, so this blood was shed by himself, as an agile warrior, he played the role of a hunter most of the time, and rarely got so beaten and couldn't walk away, but it didn't matter, because Sophia would help him heal his wounds, and more importantly, ...... The feeling of warmth and coaxing in my heart when I fought with Sophia back-to-back just now returned
Looking at the pink face that was focused on treating himself, I really felt the urge to kiss it......
What are you doing, and a vigilant rebuke interrupts Joika's imminent transgression
Nothing, your hair is messed up, Joyka made up a lie while his hand touched Sophia's head
Oh, I see, Sophia dodged Joika's hand on the side of her head and used her own hand to straighten out the long, indeed somewhat messy head
Joy Canu was a little self-deprecating, and the atmosphere between the two was very awkward
By the way, the necromancer, Joika deliberately diverted the topic to ease the awkward atmosphere, and was killed by your trick
Sophia shook her head: Vladimir was just a half-necromancer, and the Holy Shock couldn't kill him directly, but he was definitely not lightly injured
By the way, why did he come to snatch our spar, as if he called it 'Star Secret Key', and as he spoke, Joyka touched his waist, and suddenly his face changed and he panicked, and he touched his body, and the spar that was given to me by Mr. Tismu was gone
Ah, hearing Joyka shout like this, Sophia also nervously searched for herself, and my spar seemed to be missing
Could it be that Vladimir snatched it, Joeyka raised his concerns
That's too bad, Sophia can't believe when he is......
Don't worry so much, we just need to find Vladimir to know if he took it or not, he was hit by my arrow, and now he has left clues on him that can be traced, and he put the fingers of his left middle and ring fingers to his mouth - whistling
After a while, the tulip bee, which had long since flown away, flew back again
Vladimir spat black blood from his mouth, he stumbled and fled in the woods, this necromancer known as the Soulbound Messenger did not expect how the priestess would perform the Holy Impact that required a long chanting time to cast, and the unprepared Vladimir was hit head-on by the Holy Impact and was seriously injured, but this is still secondary, the key is that the zombie army that was carefully collected by the master only fought one battle and was wiped out, and after returning home, the master must have been furious
Fortunately, the Infinite Road was able to pick up two Star Keys on the ground before leaving, probably the female priest and the bounty hunter accidentally fell to the ground during the fight with the zombies - hehe, it seems that Lady Luck is still more attached to me
However, at this time, Vladimir had a big problem, his spatial teleportation ring could only be used once in 24 hours, he had already used it once when he came to this woods from his master's bone throne to set up an ambush, and now he has not recovered himself, as a pure magic practitioner, he is not fast running, and he is injured, I am afraid that he will soon be caught up by the bounty hunter who is good at tracking
At this time, Vladimir suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a noble castle nearby, and remembered that the master had mentioned Raqilu and Griston, so he hid in this castle, and he might as well go to them first and ask for help
Vladimir then changed his escape route and fled in the direction of Viscount Gveeva's castle, but as he approached the castle, Vladimir found that the three Star Keys in his hand were flashing at a very high frequency
Could it be that there are two other 'Star Keys' stored in the vicinity, and Vladimir thought ecstatically.
