Perimeter of the temple
"Listen, I'll go back to the port after I get you up, and I'll signal you when you want to come back. ”
Kakun said as he took out three flare guns, one for Barn, the second for me, and the last for the captain of the duchy supply team.
"If you're controlled, I'll leave you alone. ”
He said angrily, but it sounded like he was actually scared of Lotus's mind control.
The Heavenly Veil Behemoth was not too far from the Arad Continent, and it was seen in less than five minutes as soon as it went out to sea. During the day, the Sky Veil Behemoth was indeed a huge whale, with a lot of stone-like things on its blue-black skin, as well as mountains, and even floating clouds on its back.
Last night I said that the Celestial Behemoth had two eyes on one side, and I mistook Donnier for eyes. But actually, it has three eyes on one side!
It was already broad daylight, and I leaned against the railing, not to enjoy the scenery in the sky, nor to listen to the song of the seagulls, but to observe the direction of the giant beast in the sky, whether there was Dornier to intercept it.
However, there was no sign of the enemy along the way, and it seemed that those Dorniers had indeed come to pursue Ophelia, but they happened to see us, and in the middle of the night, they could not distinguish between Dornier and Magadha, so they launched an attack on us.
After twenty minutes, the surrounding area has become the land on the back of the Heavenly Veil Beast, and the endless "land" makes people not feel that this is in the sky.
However, the clouds floating around us still tell us that this is indeed a thousand feet in the sky.
Then Magadha floated on the back of the celestial beast, and Kakun lowered the ladder again, and when we all went down, he drove away from Magadha.
In front of us, there was a ruined wall and a dilapidated stone arch that could be passed through at will, and the door was of little significance.
"Judging by the map Ophelia brought......" Barn pulled out a scroll out of nowhere and unfolded it vertically, "We are now on the ancient ruins of the Heavenly Veil Behemoth, which is the outer perimeter of the GBL Cult Temple. ”
We leaned over and looked at the map, and saw a bird's-eye view of the whale drawn on it, with the head on top (because there were eyes on the side above), the tail below, and near the head, several stone buildings were drawn, and near the tail, where Barne was pointing, was drawn a forest, and a few stone pillars.
In other words, we are now close to the tail of the Heavenly Veil Behemoth, and the building near the head and in the middle is the temple of the GBL Sect.
The Principality Army has begun to set up tents and light fires, and we are discussing battle plans with the Imperial Army.
"Hyde, you command the men to patrol the area and see if there are any other paths to the temple. ”
"Wouldn't it be okay to just go ahead?"
"The main thing is to defend against enemy attacks, and once the camp is discovered, we will cooperate with the Duchy army to defend. ”
"So how many people does the head of the regiment plan to take to the front?"
"I?ha, of course I'm alone!"
"Huh?"
Barn pointed at us and shouted, "Aren't there adventurers with us?"
I was stunned, I didn't expect the leader of the Imperial Iron Wolf Knights to act with us.
Danio looked very happy.
As for Logan, he didn't say a word and followed behind me.
"Then let's go through the forest!" Lilou offered to take another path, pointing in a direction where she could only see green trees, which she intended to pass through.
So, the three of us taking Bath along the road ahead?
"Without further ado, we're off!" announced Barn, and swaggered forward, the first to pass through the stone gate.
Isn't he afraid of being mind-controlled by Lotus?
"Don't worry, Ophelia speculates that you will only be mind-controlled if you are close to the rearmost temple, the temple located in the second spine, as long as you don't get close to it, you should be fine. ”
yes, why don't I think it's that simple?
So we followed Bath, walked through the stone gate, and continued onward.
The stone pillars on both sides are getting closer and closer, and the road is getting narrower.
There are no figures along the way, shuttling between the ancient ruins, which inexplicably makes people feel comfortable.
Until the sharp-eyed Barn noticed that there was a person wearing the same mask as Ophelia in the distance in front of him, it should be a believer of the GBL Sect.
He stopped suddenly, also stretched out his hand to stop us, and said, "Be careful, although this is not the area of influence of mind control, this person ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the man moved slowly towards us, his hands clasped in his sleeves, and he didn't know what was hidden inside.
"Who are you?" I asked, but received no answer.
Until the man got close enough, and suddenly, he reached out, and saw him with a dagger in his hand, and then threw it at us with all his might!
"Not good!"
After swinging his sword and flicking the flying knife, Barn said, "This guy is an enemy!"
"Hehehehehe, hahahahaha!" The masked male believer suddenly let out a hysterical laugh and shouted, "It's an intruder!"
The voice was like a signal, and more than a dozen people wearing the same clothes appeared from all directions!
Some came out of the stone houses on the side of the passage, some jumped out from behind the ruins, and some approached from behind us!
We were surrounded in an instant!
I immediately removed the staff from my back: "Magic Shield!"
The others also instantly entered the battle posture and prepared to meet the enemy!
"Anyone who gets in the way of Lord Lotus must die!"
These words were like a battle horn, and those GBL cultists in cloaks rushed up and attacked with knives in hand!
"I'll stay behind!" said Danio, who had already summoned the Remnant Kaija, and then slashed the first GBL cultist to fly away!
And in front, Barn was also a sword, and he took down two disciples at once.
Rogan and I are one left and one right. The enemy on the left rushed towards me, and I cast an ice wall to block it, but I never used any other spells.
"Hey, what are you doing in a daze? Attack!" Barn looked back at me and shouted, "Where's your magic?"
"But they're human after all!"
The three GBL disciples in front of them have been attacking the ice wall with their knives, and they have already chiseled several dents, and they are about to break through the ice wall!
"They're already under the control of Lotus! kill them now and give them relief!"
!!
I remembered Lilou's words again.
"They're going to kill you first!"
I don't care if they're monsters or people, just monsters!
The ice wall collapsed in an instant, and the three believers were about to continue walking towards me, but they felt a heat under their feet, and they subconsciously looked down!
Boom!
The pillar of fire that soared into the sky blew the three of them several meters high, and they were already motionless after they landed.
I turned to look at the situation of the others, Barn's side had all been resolved, Logan was holding the ice sword to fight one-two, Danio was good, Frost Saya froze the five cultists into ice, and then there was an explosion, the ice shattered, and the man also flew out of the formation in the explosion, and there was no movement.
"Huh, I thought it was so difficult, it's just the level of ordinary people. Barn teased as he looked at the dozen or so corpses lying on the ground.
I shook my head and said, "Go ahead." ”
"What else to go, you look ahead. ”
What's ahead?
I looked beyond Barn and into the distance, and saw another group of cultists coming!
No, there is something else besides the cultists!
A few black octopus monsters crawled on the ground, and a few cultists came over each pushing a cannon with a cannon head decorated like a dragon's head.
The two disciples in the lead are dressed differently from the others, their robes are white and black, although their movements are the same as those of other disciples, they are all shrunk together, hiding their bodies in the robes, but at first glance, their status is different from the others!
"Isn't that the legendary ancient weapon dragon cannon, and the GBL Sect still has an army?" Barn's tone was both surprised and delighted.
"Fire!"
Under the order of the white-robed disciple, a blue light faintly shone in front of several dragon cannons!
I don't know what kind of bullet it will fire, but I have to block it!
"Magic Shield!"
Obviously, this trick is useless, but I saw that the dragon head cannon shot a laser!
"Ahh
Why am I so unlucky?
At this time, I was only behind me, watching the others rush up in unison and start to fight back!
I saw that the two disciples, one black and one white, were blocking the front, and the dragon head cannon behind was ready to move, and the octopus monster and the fangs and claws on the ground crawled over!
"I'll go and get the dragon cannon in the back, and you two will deal with them!"
After Barn finished speaking, he jumped over the heads of the two people, and then used three consecutive slashes to break through the block of the octopus monster in front of him, and came to the side of the dragon head cannon, and fought with the group of disciples who controlled the dragon head cannon!
I got up and prepared to support Logan and Danio, but Logan actually teleported to the front, and now Danio is one against two!
My addition just split the goals of the two.
"I'm the High Priest of the GBL Church!" the black-clad man came at me.
"You are the high priest, what about the other one?" I blurted out, not expecting him to answer me.
"I am the Archbishop of the GBL Church. ”
As a result, although the man in white confronted Danio, he also "took the time" to answer my question personally.
"How dare you trespass into Lord Rotus's territory. The high priest sneered, "Anyone who gets in the way of Lord Lotus must die!"
This sentence seems to have been said by the first ordinary believer I met just now.
And at this time, the white archbishop also shouted:
"Today, you will all die here!"
