Chapter 39: Glory Assault

Fireballs explode, light and shadow shatter.

The power of the Triple Flame Burst burst suddenly, the scorching heat filling the sewers with a scorched smell, and the power of the explosion caused a small hurricane to blow in the pipes. The skeletons that had just emerged a hundred meters away were hit head-on, and they collapsed in large pieces under the powerful impact, and a large number of bones were bounced off their original bodies by the impact force, scattered all over the pipe. The ultra-high temperature of the explosion caused the skeletons that were attacked head-on to quickly carbonize and shatter, and the ashes were raised by the hurricane caused by the impact, making the passage feel like a rain of ashes.

Only then did everyone see the true appearance of the skeleton in front of them. These are not human bones, but goblins. The skeleton is only one meter two or three in height, with slightly slender bones, a slightly longer cervical vertebrae than humans, a smaller skull than humans, somewhat flattened, and a slightly protruding skull at the front end, all of which have goblin characteristics. Even if a large number of skeletons fell, the skeletons behind them still poured out in a steady stream, whether it was the walking path on both sides or the eight-meter-wide ditch at the bottom, they were all crowded with skeletons.

What's even more painful is that just now, in addition to the dozens of skeletons that have turned into ashes and the dozen or so skeletons that have been severely fractured by the impact force, those arm bones, leg bones and ribs that have only been bounced off have been pulled by the power of the soul, and in the blink of an eye, they automatically returned to the main body of the skeleton and became complete again.

Everything in front of them made the faces of the two adventurers extremely ugly. Nelly's adventures have also fought with the undead in previous adventures, and they are no strangers to skeletons and ghosts. But there is one of the most critical problems, the previous combat effectiveness, a few people were only besieged by more than six hundred skeletons at most at one time, and there was also the existence of Lina, the nemesis of the undead, so the battle seemed to be risk-free, which also made Catherine and Vivian have a kind of contempt for the undead in their hearts, thinking that the threat of the undead was not as big as the puppet behind them.

But when they saw the white sea of bones in front of them, both of them knew that they were wrong. The horrors of the undead that have been handed down more than a hundred years ago are not exaggerated, and when the undead who are not afraid of death come in groups, especially when the number is still exaggerated, no adjective is enough to describe their deterrent power.

A large number of skeletons formed a white carpet in the sewers. Although the pace was chaotic, they were wrapped around each other, and the neat line swarmed in.

"Sister, I really can't handle the mobile battle. Vivien said abruptly, "Their ranks are too thick, and I really can't be sure to cut through them." In case of rushing halfway into the encirclement, it is estimated that people will really die, and the only way now is to stop and fight positional battles. ”

"Then positional warfare, who made us underestimate the strength of skeletons, as adventurers, there is always a price to pay for making mistakes. Fortunately, you only have to deal with the skeletons on our side, and you don't have to worry about the ones below and on the other side, there should still be a chance, so you can find a way to deal with them. Catherine turned her head, having recovered her composure from the shock, and stared at the giant puppet that was unhurriedly chasing in the distance. said softly: "You concentrate on cleaning the road ahead, and I will drag it back, the faster you open the road ahead, the more likely I am to survive, so everything is up to you." By the way, don't die. ”

"Haha, how is it possible, I was destined to die in a hospital bed because of my illness, how could I die here?" Vivien smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth. staring coldly at the sea of skeletons: "It's you, eldest sister, that thing is too powerful, it's true that you don't want to die." If you die here. Neither Lina nor I will forgive you, not for the rest of our lives. ”

"What are you kidding, after this battle, I'm going to go home to pay off my debts, and a puppet wants me to die here? Catherine took another bottle of advanced healing potion from Vivien. He put it in his pocket with the shockproof box, and the sword and shield exchanged slashes on his chest and made a crisp interson: "Look, I will soon return victorious." ”

With that, Catherine rushed out, facing the puppet that was slowly chasing her, and ran towards the formidable enemy.

"Glory. Catherine's sword was raised diagonally, and the cold blade glowed with a chilling glow under the fluorescent glow. After she shouted, countless shadows faintly appeared behind her, like countless knights driving horses, launching a decisive charge against the powerful enemy.

"Assault. Catherine gritted her teeth, and the long sword swung down violently, changing from diagonal to flat, and her body turned into a silver line, setting off a piercing sonic boom, and rushed towards the giant puppet without flinching. The countless knight phantoms behind Catherine also accelerated with Catherine at the same time, but the illusory shadows seemed to make a substantial iron hoof rumble, and they surrounded Catherine who was the leader and attacked quickly.

The few seconds of the Glory Assault seemed to have become extraordinarily long in Catherine's consciousness. In this moment, Catherine was in a trance and remembered the dream she had had on the last night on the ground, and the figure who was still persistent and fearless in the face of the impact of hundreds of millions of skeletons. It seemed to be the same knight, it seemed to be the same glory assault, Catherine suddenly realized who she was seeing, that was the figure she admired, that was the figure she believed, that was the model of all knights. In this moment, the same glory assault seemed to break the boundary between life and death, seemed to connect the past and the present, Catherine could even feel in a trance that the person's gaze seemed to cross time and space from the glory hall of the afterlife, projected behind herself, and she seemed to launch this unwinnable impact with the support and encouragement of that person.

"For victory. The fighting energy on Catherine's body burned to the peak, and although the nearly materialized fighting qi was tightly confined to Catherine's body, it was richer and stronger than ever before: "Glory!

At the last moment, Catherine shouted the last slogan to boost morale, and the sword and shield seemed to form a huge battering ram, and the body was the handle of the hammer, and the legs of the metal golem slammed violently. Immediately after, the phantoms behind him, and the puppets that Catherine bumped into without hesitation, were obviously just welcome, but they had an impact that seemed to be substantial.

Under the continuous impact of huge forces, the metal golem finally failed to maintain its balance once again and fell to the ground with a bang. The joints of its legs were still undamaged, but they had been scarred by Catherine's attack. Theoretically, as long as you can leave a scar, you can do the desired damage after enough repeated attacks from the same location. But reality and theory once again went in the opposite direction, because after the blow worked, Catherine flew out upside down for the fourth time at about the same speed as when she rushed over, flying higher, faster and farther than the previous three times, tumbling in the air, until she flew more than a hundred meters before falling to the ground, and then rolled quickly on the ground for another thirty or forty meters before finally stopping, just stopping at Vivien's side.

During this period, Vivien was not idle, first using magic to lay a large amount of inclined ice on the ground more than 100 meters between herself and the skeleton, so that as many skeletons as possible slipped and even fell into the underground canal, thus effectively reducing the advance speed of the Skeleton Sea. Taking advantage of the time she had earned, Vivien manipulated four carving knives at the same time, carving a large number of magic circles with different images on the hard ground. And the maid sisters were also busy under Vivien's command, carefully pouring all kinds of strange potions designated by Vivien along the nicks of the circle, so that all the nicks of the circle were filled with liquid. Fortunately, when Catherine rolled over, she stopped outside the range of the circle and did not destroy the circle, otherwise the three of them would have to work hard to repair it.

"Victorious returns? Sure enough, it was very fast. Vivien didn't raise her head, and said a word seemingly indifferently, the four carving knives did not tremble at all, and the speed of the carving did not change at all, but the trembling muscles of her face still exposed her clenched teeth and her unsettled heart. However, professional adventurers know that in this kind of crisis, doing their job well and opening the way in time is the best and only correct support for teammates who are under great pressure, and only novices who don't know anything will put aside their tasks to check on their teammates' injuries, which will only lead to everyone dying here.

That's a good question. Catherine struggled to her feet again, her face and hands covered with numerous abrasions, and she looked bloody and bloody, but in fact it was not too serious. The really serious damage was in the body, and the heavy impact not only caused a little trouble to the puppet, but at the same time, the reaction force was also fed back to Catherine herself, causing blood to continue to spill from the corners of Catherine's mouth. Catherine wiped the corners of her mouth, gritted her teeth and poured down another bottle of advanced healing potion, stared at the puppet that was slowly getting up with red eyes, and did not forget to say: "You also learned badly from Pannis, you really deserve to be my good sister." ”

"It's fine. Vivien's portrayal was still steady, and even the carving knives changed from four to five: "Go early and come back early, I still have two bottles of high-grade healing potions here." ”

"Enough. After taking the medicine, Catherine's internal and external injuries are obviously improving, and although the scars on her face are still there, they are no longer bleeding, and even slowly scabbed. Catherine twisted her neck, regretfully dropped the broken one-handed sword that had been with her for several years, picked up another magic steel shield from the fire elemental creature, and rushed forward again before the puppet could fully get up.

"Alright, done. Vivien's always serious face finally showed a smile, and she snapped her fingers lightly: "Now, it's my Vivian's time." (To be continued.) )
