Volume 4: People who challenge the light Chapter 23: Punishing the Evildoers
This is not the end. Several side doors around the hall suddenly opened, and dozens of level 5 NPCs rushed in and surrounded us. It seemed that they had already prepared for the attack and were on high alert. They would rush out in full force at the first sign of trouble. They did a great job of protecting the "surrenderers".
We did not dare to neglect it. We immediately stopped and turned to defense, and began to summon pets or undead creatures. I looked up at the roof at the first time. There was only a big hole left where the "holy disk" was originally located. I finally put my heart at ease. As long as I don't worry about death, I can exert the greatest combat power. First, I summoned Red Star, and then summoned Xiaobai and a dark knight, as well as dozens of taller devouring ghosts. In order to avoid being hurt by us, there were NPCs standing around the empty space in the middle of the night. With such dense defense, even if I wanted Red Star or Dark Knight to appear directly near him, there was no extra space. If I approached the enemy array rashly, it would bring danger to them, so I had to stay by their side honestly. However, this also made it convenient for Xiaobai to exert his power. He quietly approached them and used the "yinsha duopo" skill. A gloomy wind blew and a large area was destroyed.
If Xiaobai wants to launch an attack, he will lose his invisibility effect. Right now, the enemy is busy but not chaotic, so it is not a good time to launch a surprise attack. I let it hide in the empty sky in the middle of the night, waiting for orders. As for the other Devouring Ghosts, they are also floating in the sky above the hall, not participating in the attack for the time being, ready to cooperate with Xiaobai when the time comes. Qiushui Changtian and the other three undead wizards also summoned a dark knight and a black warrior respectively, and together with the three magic knights, they formed a circle to guard the outer layer. The four of us were in the middle to coordinate. This was also a strategy discussed in advance. If the enemy is prepared, we will use defense as offense to disrupt their deployment and look for opportunities in the chaos.
Although the enemy attacked fiercely, the number of people who could attack at the same time was limited . Long Xingtianxia and his men were all masters. Even the weaker black warriors were not inferior to the level 5 elite knights. With full defense, they were not at a disadvantage at all. Red Star took the initiative to attack, relying on its speed advantage to charge forward. It did not get entangled with the elite knights, but chased and killed the bishops of light everywhere, causing chaos in the rear of the enemy, making it difficult for them to cooperate well with the knights who were attacking us in front. The Sky Knight, who was originally guarding in the middle of the night, had no choice but to jump out to deal with Red Star. After a chase, Red Star killed three bishops, and then they fought together.
There were too many guardians around in the middle of the night, all staring at us nervously. Even if Long Xingtianxia and I activated our magic weapons to attack, as long as one person stood up to take the blame, our efforts would be in vain, and we would have wasted the opportunity to use the magic weapons.
Red Star was entangled by the Sky Knight, and there was also a Ground Knight with five or six elite knights watching closely on the side, so it couldn't get away at all. Without its interference, the enemy had stabilized its position, and the knights and priests assisted each other and had a clear plan of advance and retreat, which made us feel more pressured. At the same time, there were too many enemies besieging us. If we continued to stalemate like this, we would be the ones who suffered in the end.
We must find a way to disrupt the situation. I absorbed the mental power of a bishop and summoned Taotao out, letting it take over and withdraw the Dark Knight. I gathered my strength to launch a "Flash Assault". Only in this way can we disrupt the opponent's deployment. However, there are enemies everywhere outside. Once we rush out and are besieged, we cannot be sent back to the "Dead Space" at any time. Basically, we are in danger. It seems that it is not easy for Qiu Shui Changtian and others to subdue a Dark Knight. Everyone cherishes them very much and is unwilling to let them sacrifice easily unless necessary. The last time a Dark Knight died, Qiu Shui Changtian was heartbroken. Naturally, I, the "number one wizard responsibility.
The Dark Knight had fully charged, and I signaled Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Gui Husband to command their men to make way for him, and then I used the "Flash Assault" and rushed out suddenly. The knights blocking the front saw that a passage had been opened and thought there was a gap to exploit. After taking the first two steps, they were knocked down by the Dark Knight who rushed over, and his target was directly the lonely person in the middle of the night who was concentrating on praying.
Although he looked fierce, he was just bluffing. He could not pose any threat to Ye Ban Wu. He was guarded by the Cardinal in White and two Archbishops, who led more than 30 Level 5 professionals. As soon as the Dark Knight rushed out, the enemy had already reacted. The elite knights in the front row were equipped with many auxiliary skills and were ready to resist the impact with guns, while the Archbishops behind them launched "Holy Light Bullets" to attack. "Holy Light Bullets" was the most commonly used of the few direct attack magics of the Light Priests. Although it was only a Level 1 skill, it was very practical. The power would increase with the level of the user. It was not so easy to bear when released by a Level 5 Archbishop.
Once the Dark Knight stops charging, he will be surrounded by everyone. Not to mention hurting the no one in the middle of the night, I am afraid his life will be in danger. However, he is not the main force of my attack, just to distract the enemy. Taking advantage of the opportunity that the enemy is focused on the Dark Knight and has no time to look around, Xiaobai, who has been lurking in the sky for a long time, has quietly revealed his figure and began to accumulate power to perform "Yin Sha Duo Po". The dozens of Devouring Ghosts also slowly approached the two Sky Knights and Earth Knights . When Xiaobai launched the attack, they would also rush up to contain the enemy, allowing Red Star to escape and kill.
The Dark Knight broke through the interceptions of several elite knights and rushed into the enemy camp, but these NPCs were really fearless. Even the bishops used the "Holy Light Shield" to protect themselves and blocked the Dark Knight's attack until the momentum was over. He was unable to get close to the enemy in the middle of the night and was immediately attacked fiercely from all sides. The brave man could not withstand the large number of people and could no longer hold on.
The Dark Knight finally died tragically, but my goal had been achieved. Although his figure was revealed, no one noticed Xiaobai who was floating silently in the air. Before the enemy had time to adjust their formation, they were attacked by "Yin Sha Duo Po". The wind was howling and the tornado was rolling, which caused new panic in an instant.
However, the cardinal in white who had been guarding Ye Ban Wu Ren was indeed a boss-level figure who managed a cathedral. He was not panicked even in the cold wind. He quickly knelt in front of the altar with the two archbishops beside him and cast the "Holy Light Barrier" that had resisted the attack of the artifact. A thick white light column covered the three of them and Ye Ban Wu Ren together. Although the larger the range of protection, the weaker the defense ability, Xiao Bai's "Yin Sha Duo Po" could not be compared with the power of the artifact after all, but there was no way to attack it. Moreover, compared with the last time, the height of the light column was lowered, and it did not rush into the air, but just barely protected their bodies, which not only improved the defense ability, but also reduced the possibility of being attacked. This guy was really cunning. Before he could see the situation clearly, he first included himself and the target to be protected in the "turtle shell" that could even resist the artifact. Moreover, because he was worried about the attack of the artifact, he could obviously cover all the NPCs, but only protected the four of them. Safety first, the work was done without revealing a single drop of water.
The cardinals in white have such ability, but the ordinary NPCs outside the "Holy Light Barrier" cannot withstand the blowing of the cold wind. It would be better if the bishops cast "Purification" as it could slow down the loss of physical strength, but their thin bodies were swaying left and right with the tornado and they could not stand steadily. As for the fully armed knights, they were not too afraid of these miniature tornadoes, but their movements were slightly inconvenient. However, the bishops were taking care of themselves, and no one cast "Purification" on them. Their physical strength was constantly lost, and they could not escape the attack range of "Yin Sha Duo Po" due to their duties. They were panicked and fell into chaos.
At the same time, those dozens of tall body-devouring ghosts that originally belonged to Xiaobai's guards also quickly launched an attack. More than twenty of them entangled the Sky Knights, more than ten attacked the Earth Knights, and the remaining elite knights also arranged a few to take care of them, attracting their attacks, and finally allowing Red Star to break free. He charged back and forth several times, and cooperated with our counterattack to defeat the enemy in the front. The entire team maintained its formation and moved forward quickly, shortening the distance with the no one in the middle of the night.
The bishops who were under the attack of "Evil Soul Stealer" may have received some instructions, and they all looked up at Xiaobai in mid-air, struggling to use "Holy Light Bullet" to launch an attack, but they could not stand steadily under the interference of the tornado, so the accuracy was naturally greatly reduced, and the threat to Xiaobai was not very big. With the cover of Qiu Shui Changtian and Long Kong, Long Xingtianxia and I took advantage of the opportunity of the enemy's formation being in chaos, and each of us activated the artifact to attack the night no one.
These NPCs were really loyal to their duties. They could hardly protect themselves from the "Evil Soul Taking Away" and they even struggled to rush forward to resist the attack of the artifact. I could only helplessly absorb the mental power of an elite knight, and Long Xingtianxia's powerful attack only destroyed a bishop. The first wave of attacks was resolved by them.
My second attack was disrupted by a bishop again. Long Xingtianxia used the "Poison Dragon Spear" twice, but only killed two elite knights. Long Kong and others who were responsible for covering them could not hold on for too long under the enemy's crazy attack. And that Sky Knight used some skill, and a faint silver light appeared on his silver spear, and its power increased greatly. He killed a Devouring Ghost with just a few shots. It seemed that he would be able to escape soon and join in the siege of us. We could not delay any longer.
At this moment, a black figure suddenly rushed out past us and plunged straight into the dark wind. All the NPCs were knocked aside wherever they passed. It turned out to be another dark knight performing "Flash Assault". At the same time, Qiu Shui Chang Tian's voice came to my ears, "Seize the opportunity, act quickly!"
Because "Yin Sha Duo Po" blew away the enemy's formation, the obstacles they encountered were reduced a lot. The Dark Knight rushed all the way and actually broke through to the front of the "Holy Light Barrier". Although blocked by the light column, Long Xing Tian Xia and I took advantage of the path it opened to launch an attack. "Suck Essence and Devour Marrow" and "Poison Dragon Spear" followed closely and hit the "Holy Light Barrier".
After another struggle, the "Holy Light Barrier" was ultimately no match for the combined power of the two divine weapons. It broke layer by layer, and was finally dispersed. However, an archbishop stepped forward to block the remaining power of the "Poison|Dragon Spear", but such a good opportunity was still in vain. As long as we wait for a while, this passage will be blocked by the bodies of those NPCs. Even if we find another opportunity to use the artifact to attack, the white-robed cardinal and his men should have released the "Holy Light Barrier" to protect their bodies. It may not be so easy to kill Ye Ban Wu Ren with only the two divine weapons.
However, this is not our original intention. The main purpose of using the two artifacts is to shatter the "Holy Light Barrier" and break their defenses. The real fatal blow will be delivered by Red Star.
After opening the passage for us, Red Star took a few steps forward, stood still and began to accumulate power. Its "Flash Combo" was the final killer in our plan. At the same time as the "Holy Light Barrier" was broken, Red Star had already rushed out. "Flash Combo" was more powerful than "Flash Assault". It could change the direction and target of the attack at will, and specifically look for weak points in the enemy's defense to break through. The formation was originally scattered under the influence of "Yin Sha Duo Po", and some of the quick-reacting dark knights were busy besieging Qiu Shui Chang Tian's dark knight. They encountered almost no resistance and quickly approached the white-robed cardinal.
There was definitely no time to cast the "Holy Light Barrier". The white-robed cardinal and the two archbishops stood up at the same time and stood in front of the empty crowd in the middle of the night. They quickly cast the "Wall of Light". A layer of white light surrounded their bodies to protect them. At the same time, the magic wands of the two archbishops were placed on the white-robed cardinal's magic wand, and they shot a beam of white light at the rushing red star, which actually resisted the momentum of the red star and slowed down its attack speed.
However, the "Flash Combo" of the Terror Knight Red Star is not so easy to deal with, and its momentum is too fierce to be offset by a mere white light. After several consecutive changes of direction, it got rid of the interception of several NPCs and collided with the Archbishop who hurriedly stood in front of it. One collision broke his "Wall of Light" and knocked him into a rolling ball. The white-robed cardinal next to him had no time to stop it, as he had already rushed to an empty place in the middle of the night.
Ye Ban Wu Ren, who dared not move, died tragically under the knife of Hong Xing. If he moved and escaped, he would lose the qualification for job transfer. It was not a simple matter to reapply. It would take a long time to report and approve. During this period, he could no longer be protected by the church, and it was even more difficult to escape the punishment of the dark profession. Although he was given many auxiliary magics, he still could not hold on until the NPCs arrived to support him. At the same time that the Sky Knights who rushed over attacked Hong Xing, we had successfully killed Ye Ban Wu Ren and achieved the purpose of punishing the traitor. It would be best if he could escape. Even if we all died here, there would be no regrets.
