While the Salvation Squad was leisurely farming, the number of crusaders on the island was increasing at an alarming rate.

The entire east side of the floating island, the circle around the church, was densely packed with crusader tents, and the St. George's cross flag almost blocked the morning sun.

Rosalie worries every day that the Order's gang won't leave, because if they don't leave, it seems that there is no good way for the Salvation Team to get them away.

But the king was unimpressed: "This is Lancelot's Order. With the arrival of the main force of the Crusaders, along with a large number of merchants and adventurers, the whole world will immediately know that if the Order does something that has ruined its reputation.

"There are personified gods in this plane, so don't worry about that. I look at the records of people in the tower going to other planes to adventure, many gods are just some kind of concept, or there is no god at all, the order is all black, all evil, basically wolves in sheep's clothing.

"But it's different here, Lancelot is a good man, and he has appeared himself, and the Order doesn't dare to make a mistake."

Rosalie did not refute Wang's claim, after all, the Order did keep its promise and brought a large number of daily necessities to the floating island, and the lives of the nearly 2,000 "aborigines" on the island were greatly improved.

As the Crusaders assembled, there was movement on the side of the undead, and on September 20, the island's lookout post saw the gargoyle for the first time.

A total of four gargoyles flew around the island, probably afraid of the bed crossbows set up by the Crusaders, and did not come closer.

On September 21, the number of gargoyles on the spot increased to 20, and even began to test the firepower of the Crusaders.

On 22 September, Cardinal Pietro, the supreme leader of the Crusaders, invited the king to the Great Horde.

And the king went with the whole salvation party.

As soon as he entered the tent, he found that there were three more people attending the meeting on the Order's side than the Salvation Squad!

Pietro was making some arrangements on the map, when he heard the movement and raised his head, and immediately showed a smile as bright as his gods: "Oh, it's all the Salvation Squad!" You're here! ”

The king glanced at the holy warriors, and found that there was a red armor in the white-clothed and white-armored men, and then there were two adventurers in leather armor mixed in the group of armored men, so he asked curiously, "Who are these people?" ”

Petro: "This is the centurion of the various detachments of my army, and the leader of the Flaming Fists mercenary group hired by the Order. As for these two, they are representatives of the adventurers we have hired. ”

One of the leathermen spoke, "We represent the eleven squads of adventurers. We are mainly responsible for reconnaissance missions that the knights are not good at. ”

Wang: "And what did you find?" ”

"They are mainly responsible for placing the small altar of our lord, through which they can sense the general direction of the lich," Pietro replied in place of the mercenaries, "as long as the altar is placed in different places, and then the line is drawn to the position of the lich, and all the intersecting lines are where the lich is at this time." ”

Rosalie: "Destroy the Lich Immortal Army and you'll be wiped out, right?" ”

Wang Baobai said: "Generally speaking, this is true. But now that there are so many undead, even if the lich is destroyed, the land will continue to produce undead, and those who die in this area will gradually get up. ”

Pietro added: "In this case, the lich is decapitated, the higher undead will gain free will, and the casters will begin to transform into lichs, and when they have mastered the art of crafting lifeboxes, and have completed the crafting of lifeboxes, they will become new lichs."

"It's something we want to avoid, so it's not just about destroying the lich, but also about killing spellcasters like the Witch.

"Powerful undead creatures like the Death Knight are not at risk of transforming into lichs, but they can't be left to wander around."

Rosalie nodded, "Understood." ”

Pietro continued: "Now that the undead army has detected us, if it weren't for the advance base in the sky, it is estimated that they would have attacked. Now that we've completed the build-up, we can take the initiative. We hope that Your Excellency will land the floating island on the shoal in front of Repulse City. ”

Wang: "Are you ready to attack?" ”

Petro: "Of course. The army has been assembled, and not attacking will only be a waste of food and gold. So, what is your intention? ”

Wang: "No problem, I'll land the floating island on the shallows, which is about this location." ”

Wang tapped on the map on the table.

"Last time we landed here, we saved a lot of survivors." The king paused, "But how are you going to get ashore?" The shallows were all muddy, and the knights' armor was so heavy that they all sank to the bottom as soon as they got out of the water. ”

Petro: "Do you have any good advice on this?" ”

Wang: "You haven't thought of a way?" ”

Petro: "That's why we have a meeting, if we have a way, we can just ask you directly." ”

Wang touched the stubble on his chin: "You have to get through the muddy talk quickly...... I don't think so, haven't you already determined the location of the lich? ”

Petro: "We've identified the locations of the Lich's and Necro's lair, the two main targets for raids. ”

Wang: "So, every ten-man crusader should have someone who can tear the scroll, right?" ”

Petro looked at Teresa, who nodded: "Yes, it's standard." Each also brought four Fireball scrolls. ”

Wang: "Equip each of them with the featherfall technique, and let them jump directly down from the floating island." ”

Petro: "Jump down?" ”

Wang: "Yes, air assault! Don't you have airships, haven't you ever tried them? ”

Teresa: "The Sissel Republic has done experiments, and finally found that jumping down from an airship with a feather drop technique, when you land, you can't quickly form a formation, and if you are caught, it will be miserable." Especially the classes like Mages and Warlocks in the team. Mages are okay and have the ability to protect themselves, but warlocks don't necessarily have protective spells, and they will be unlucky. ”

Wang: "But what you throw down is canned food, the paladin is canned, the priest is also canned food, there is no such thin skin and big stuffing, the Sissel Republic can't vote, you can." ”

Teresa was stunned: "Hey, that seems to be the case." ”

Pietro withdrew his gaze from Teresa and looked at the king, "So what do you mean?" ”

The king poked his hand at the largest skeleton mark on the map: "I drove the floating island here, lowered the height to the bottom and almost touched the ground, and then you jumped down and struck by storm." ”

Teresa: "I want to see the total height of the floating island...... Oh, no problem at all, the fall won't take too long, and even if you are attacked by a gargoyle, the damage will be within the expected range. ”

Wang: "Speaking of which, do you have a way to dominate the air?" Why don't you borrow some griffon knights from Monrovia? ”

Pietro: "We borrowed it, but the griffon knights suffered great losses from the previous orc invasion, and they refused the church's request. ”

As he spoke, the cardinal glanced at Rosalie.

Rosalie: "After all, there has just been a big blood change in China, and my father probably wants to save a little hole card in his hand to deal with accidents." ”

Xiaobai: "Why don't you ask Midori for a little druid?" ”

Teresa was surprised and said, "Is Green Field actually willing?" I thought the druids were more independent. ”

Xiaobai: "Yes, I just suggest you ask, there is no guarantee that you will be able to borrow a druid." ”

Nini: "The elven horned eagle can also deal with gargoyles. ”

Petro: "It's very troublesome to negotiate with the elven kingdom diplomatically, and by the time we get the troops, the undead army has already spread across the entire river region.

"Don't worry about air supremacy, today our air supremacy will arrive. The time should be fast. ”

Wang frowned: "It's almost there?" ”

Xiaobai's ears suddenly turned to the sky, and Nini also turned her head - her ears were not as flexible as Xiaobai, so she had to match her head movements to align with the direction the sound came from.

Wang: "What's wrong?" ”

Xiaobai: "The sky is rumbling!" Like a low rolling thunder. ”

At this time, a herald opened the curtain of the big tent and came in: "Report! Your Excellency, the Crusader Headquarters has arrived. ”

At this time, the king heard a low roar in the sky.

Sounds like an engine.

He didn't wait for everyone to react, he took three steps and two steps out of the big tent, and looked up—

In the morning light of the rising sun, six huge airships, surrounded by dozens of small airships, flew from the south, and the roar of the engines made the earth tremble slightly.

Petro also made a big tent: "This is our air supremacy. Each airship was equipped with a bed crossbow and spears to stab approaching gargoyles, as well as an electrical discharge. ”

Wang was speechless: "Where did this industrialized army come from?" ”

Petro: "It's the volunteer army provided by the Sissel Republic. ”

Wang: "The Sissel Republic that broke out in the revolution?" Sure enough, their industry has developed to this point. The economic base determines the superstructure, and my uncle didn't lie to me. ”
