Chapter 231: Temple Raid
In the London Temple in the real world, Wang, the assistant left behind by Doctor Strange, also noticed the abnormal movement in the mirror space, and anxiously wanted to gather a large army into the mirror space to clear the few assassins in Doctor Strange's mouth.

However, the "magic" used by the other party was so mysterious that even the most knowledgeable magicians in the London Temple were puzzled, and the two worlds of reality and mirror image were completely isolated, neither entering nor leaving, leaving a large group of powerful magicians staring dryly in the real world, looking in vain at the fierce battle between their compatriots and Chen Lu and his party in the mirror space.
However, this situation of nothing to do was soon broken, and a mysterious fog came from the outside world to cover the London Temple, and everyone's vision suddenly became blurred. Such an abnormal climate immediately aroused the vigilance of all magicians, but no one could tell what kind of magic was the effect.
And then, something even more terrifying happened. In the underground passage of the temple, the swarming corpse tide broke through the ground one after another, and among the endless ordinary zombies, there were also a large number of pursuers armed with various high-tech weapons, and on the side of the strongest gate, there were huge desperate thunder beasts roaring and charging over.
At this moment, the London Temple suddenly turned from a cultivation holy place to a purgatory on earth, and a large number of zombies completely ignored the deadly spells shooting at them, and rushed towards the temple regardless of casualties. The Desperate Thunderbeast roared and spread its massive claws, tearing the main entrance of the temple open, leading the hordes of pursuers towards the mages.
"We are under attack!"
"Which world is this?"
"They've broken through the gates!"
"Fill the gap!"

The shouts of the mages rang out everywhere, and with Doctor Strange trapped in mirror space, the mages in the temple were suddenly in a predicament of being leaderless. Ever since Doctor Strange took control of the power of the Time Stone, there have been very few battles that require these mages to actually be involved. This sudden large-scale attack made them, who lacked actual combat experience, not know what to do, and could only resist the attack of the enemy in front of them on their own.
Doctor Strange's assistant Wang naturally assumed the position of commander-in-chief, but his reputation was not enough to tame all the magicians, so he had to gather an elite army to rescue the emergency first, and very reluctantly fortified the defense of the London Temple.
However, the king looked at the zombies that came from outside the temple like a tide, and the mages who were fighting bravely were all slightly tired. Mana is not an energy that can be easily regenerated, and every time a powerful magic is used, it is a huge burden on the mental power of a spirit mage. It might be easier to cast mana in mirror space, but in the real world, the power of moving mountains and seas is not so easy to appear.
Most mages can only do simple magic weapon projection or small-scale energy release, and the main way to fight is weapon enchantment or arcane missiles, these moves are about the same power as human heavy firepower weapons, which can easily penetrate the subcutaneous bone shell of ordinary zombies and inflict fatal damage on it. It's a pity that these single damage attacks are just a drop in the bucket compared to the terrifying number of corpses, and the magic power of the magicians is being consumed dramatically, while the scale of the zombie sea has not decreased.
An elite mage shot a mana beam through the crown of a desperate thunderbeast, and then moved the beam up and down to split the beast vertically. But after unleashing this powerful magic, he was exhausted and half-crouched on his limp arm, and in front of him, three desperate thunderbeasts were charging furiously.
In the next second, the mage was trampled into meat sauce by the giant hooves of the Desperate Thunder Beast. The novice magicians who were guarded behind him couldn't resist the gunfire of the pursuers, and they also died after pulling hundreds of ordinary zombies to accompany them to the funeral.
Such a fight at any cost is a disaster for the magicians, but for Chen Lu, it is just a few days of zombie production, and if it continues to be consumed like this, it is definitely the mages of the London Temple who collapse.
Naturally, Wang also realized this, and hurriedly sent a signal for help to other temple magic organizations, with the appeal of Doctor Strange, the Supreme Mage, this kind of request must have been answered. It's just that the recent international situation is really chaotic, and the rebellion of mutants has made the magicians who are usually not very astringent also mistaken by the government for the mutant group, and when they are criticized by the parties, it is also much more difficult to assemble troops.
It's hard to say how many reinforcements can be called, but whether they can hold out until the arrival of the army of mages is a bigger question.
At least a few sporadic magicians had responded to the king's request and had rushed from all over the world using spell portals to immediately plunge into the battle for the defense of the London Temple. Although the zombie army was still encroaching on the periphery of the temple step by step, the speed of the advance was slowly slowing down.
"Stop them from entering the inner sanctum!" Standing under the tower where Doctor Strange reversed in the mirrored space, Wang shouted to the magicians who were struggling to resist the zombie invasion below: "As long as you hold on until the Supreme Mage returns, he will use the power of the Eye of Agamotto to recall all the heroic souls who died in this battle, please don't feel sorry for the death of your comrades, no one will really die in this temple!" ”
With the king's promise, the magicians will certainly be able to free their hands and feet, and fight with the same fearlessness as the zombie army. With the power of the Time Stone, the mages of the dead can be resurrected perfectly after victory. Knowing this, they were able to concentrate wholeheartedly on resisting the enemy, and if necessary, they could trade their lives for their lives.
The fierce fighting style allowed the magicians to temporarily gain the upper hand in the confrontation with the zombies, and even the king, who was originally in charge of the Chinese army, took out a glass-like transparent blade from his hand and threw himself into the fierce battle on the front line. These weapons with magical power all have the characteristics of sharpening iron like clay, and even the desperate thunder god who prides himself on his defensive power is also drilled into the crotch by the king and then disemboweled.
Outside the fog, the London police forces were quickly gathering to try to get into the fog, but when they got closer to the temple, they saw that the policemen with small pistols did not know what to do.
The military is dealing with mutant resistance movements around the world, showing that it can't spare extra troops to deal with zombies of such a terrifying scale, and at this moment, the British government comes out and hopes that this group of magicians can successfully solve the problem, so it can only consider committing suicide with a nuclear bomb like the United States.
