Chapter 145: All-out Invasion
The Wizard Guild in Blue Bay is not large, only two stories high, and with the defensive magic array of the association itself, it is relatively simple to defend, but with the increase of monsters, the situation begins to take a sharp turn for the worse.
Half a magic hour ago, screams and cries for help could be heard from the streets outside, but then it fell silent, and the world seemed to fall silent suddenly, except for the sound of monsters crawling over the road.
D'Ardarion disorganized the rest of the people and redivided them into two groups, the magician and melee classes, using a rotation system, mainly defending doors and windows, etc., he arranged all this and pulled the female magician in charge of communication aside and asked, "Can you get in touch with the outside?"
The sorceress nodded, "The suppressor has been removed, and we have restored contact with the outside world half a magic hour ago, but I heard that more than a dozen seaside towns have also been attacked tonight in addition to Emerald Bay, and in addition, the remaining monsters have also moved, except for the Little Beaver, no one else can spare manpower to support us." The sorceress paused, looking worried, "President, I'm afraid this attack is not simple, just a rough count of hundreds of thousands of monsters involved, and this number is still increasing. ”
"This is a full-scale invasion. D'Ardarion said lightly, "There must be cracks somewhere we don't know, and the estimated scale is not small...... Leave these things to President Lilith to worry about first, and leave support alone. D'Ardarion pulled out a broken fragment, "Tell Lilith the lines on it, and see if she can find someone to crack the location." ”
"What is this?"
"Merlin modified the magic pattern of the teleportation array, and also added an explosion trap, but after all, it is a gadget made in a hurry, the power is enough, but the trigger time is not optimal, I protected the core part, but the current situation should not give me time to study. ”
As soon as D'Addarion finished speaking, the wall on the west side of the first floor suddenly collapsed, and the culprit, a sphinx, rushed in from the outside.
This fifth-order monster just rushed into the house, and before he could see the enemy in front of him, he was chopped off by a group of masters, but it was like a drop of oil falling into the water, and immediately brought a series of chain reactions, but in the blink of an eye, there were no less than a dozen monsters near the kung fu who noticed the movement here, they were like ants smelling the aroma of honey, scrambling to pounce, if you look down from the sky above the blue bay, you can clearly see that the movement of the monster in the city has changed.
With the Wizards' Association as the center, a black vortex was formed that continued to spread outward, and countless monsters began to rush towards the eye of the wind.
Some magicians tried to fill the hole with magic, but the newly formed wall of earth only lasted a few breaths before it shattered, and this time there were eight monsters rushing in.
The battle was about to break out, but D'Ardarion didn't say any more, pulling out the moon chant on his waist.
The situation is more critical now than on the beach, and the surviving adventurers and magicians have plummeted to more than forty people, although they have a certain geographical advantage, but it also means that they have no way out, and their few manpower is too small compared to the monsters that fill the city.
D'Ardarion had contacted the alchemy airship two and a half magical hours ago, but he wasn't sure when it would arrive, so all they could do now was hold out as long as they could, because the longer they held out, the better their hopes of being rescued.
............
Merlin followed the address given to him by Hastings to the outskirts, an abandoned church.
Since the fall of the clergy, most of the churches around the world are now in a state of abandonment, but this one is different, as early as twelve years ago, there was a fire that burned most of this church, there was a choir and three priests in it, and only one of them escaped, and soon after the old priest went mad, and the church was abandoned after that.
Twelve years later, the place now looks gloomy.
Merlin was not in the mood to explore the story behind this, so he walked through a mottled iron gate and walked down the stone path directly in front of the church.
He looked up, and could vaguely recognize that it was a church building, with black crows perched on the half-cut spire, starlight falling to the ground through the non-existent ceiling, and grass and bird droppings everywhere as far as the eye could see.
"Well, in a sense, the atmosphere here is an unexpected match with the theme of the end times. Merlin took off his hat, found a bench that hadn't completely rotted away, and sat down on it, "Now, can anyone tell me what's going to happen next for this game?"
His voice echoed through the empty hall, and a figure stood up from the pulpit a moment later.
Merlin was a little surprised, he didn't observe the surroundings when he came in, but he turned a blind eye to this big living person in front of him, but then he sighed softly, because he found that the other party was actually just an ordinary old man, wearing tattered clothes, looking like a scavenger everywhere, he was curled up before, lying on the ground, perfectly blended with the surrounding environment, no wonder Merlin didn't notice him when he came in.
Merlin remembered the legend about this place before, and couldn't help but wonder if this old man was the only survivor of the fire twelve years ago?
However, the other party obviously did not intend to talk to him, and the old man got up and walked to the pulpit on his own, and moved away from the latter, revealing a dark entrance below.
"Hey, hey, that's not what we said at the time. Merlin dissatisfied, "Why do you want me to drill the tunnels, what if there is an ambush down there?"
The old man was expressionless and silent, and after opening the entrance to the tunnel, he lay back on the ground, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with him.
Merlin frowned, the other party was so clear that he couldn't communicate, so now the question was pushed back in front of him, he had to make a judgment on whether to take this risk or not, although the thing that occupied the body of Black Listings in the basement had agreed to his request, but no one knew better than Merlin that the promises of those things were simply unreliable.
"Forget it, it's all here, you can't give up halfway. Merlin rubbed his nose and walked down the dark tunnel.
