Chapter 71 Toward the Enemy Camp
[The Key to the Hyaltin Ruins (3/3)]
-The key that restored its original form.
– I feel the divine power.
– Leads to Hyaltin Remains.
Items I have.
I took it out of the treasure bag, but there was no response.
Unfortunately, this doesn’t look like a ruin.
I was scratching my head.
Does the tower have its own world view?
The more I looked around, the more traces left by the villagers.
[Bael priest’s slate]
– Ice and fire. We were originally one.
[Fragment of the church secretary’s record]
-If Magneta, the sword of the kingdom, had come a little earlier, the kingdom might not have been divided.
[Manifesto of an unknown believer]
-Where is Hugo, the shield of the kingdom! Do you stand by and watch your homeland be trampled on? Where the hell is he!
Sentences that must have been few by those who had turned into undead now.
I guess that’s it.
“Isn’t that what happened when the church split?”
The winner is the Church of Fire. The loser is the Order of Ice.
In a way, it’s a common story.
Fighting while being divided is something that happens a lot in real life.
Let’s skip that part and think about why we showed this.
A guardian attacking the village and the undead blocking it.
A quest that occurred on the side of the undead. The answer came out.
“This time, you probably want to protect the village.”
I don’t know what it means to reproduce the situation at that time in a yard that has already collapsed.
That’s not for me to judge.
I don’t know if it’s important to someone.
Was my judgment correct?
The information of the hidden quest, which had been hidden for a while, was revealed.
[You have entered the center of the village.]
[Quest information will be revealed.]
-Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh -gugugugugu
The collapsed stone
statue glowed and the surrounding debris floated into the air.
At the same time, the statue of the Goddess of the Church of Ice began to take shape.
The village that had been destroyed began to take on its original appearance in an instant.
As if time had gone back to the past.
“Wow.”
I was genuinely amazed.
The sight of buildings, roads, farmhouses, and warehouses reviving after the flames were extinguished was literally a realm of mystery.
-Ah ah ah ah ah!
The change did not stop there.
The Undead, who were struggling against the Guardians, began to use their strength.
It was to the point where I wondered if the guys who had been mercilessly pushed under the influence of divine power would be right.
The cause was before me.
[Ice Goddess. Prelia’s protection is with you.]
The stone statue of the goddess who regained her original form radiated powerful divine power, and surprisingly, the undead absorbed that power.
Undead with divine power. It is an unheard-of sight.
“uh?”
Did you see something in vain?
I closed and opened my eyes.
wee. It was less than a second, but I saw it.
The human form overlapped with the undead, whose skin melted and even their bones withered away, and then disappeared.
Although now it has returned to the form of zombies and skeleton pulse positions.
There was a change.
The Undead, who had been moving instinctively, each pulled out their weapons and started fighting.
“This crazy.”
I was astonished at the information coming in through the Authority.
Definitely 1 star. At best, the 2-star undead all upgraded their specs together.
[Skeleton Warrior]
-2 star monster.
-Don’t think of it as a conventional skeleton. He’s a warrior.
[Skeleton Archer]
-2 star monster.
-When in a hurry, you can pull out the ribs and shoot.
[Ghoul]
-2-star monster.
– High compatibility of zombies.
[Angle]
-2-star monster.
-Be careful not to get eaten.
Skeletons evolved into specialized occupations and zombies evolved into higher entities.
More than half of them evolved to 2-stars, and what’s even more surprising is...
“There are even 3-stars.”
[Skeleton Knight]
-3 star monster.
– A knight’s will doesn’t care about appearance.
[Dummy Zombie]
-3 star monster.
– Horrible and powerful monsters created by merging dozens of zombies.
A Skeleton Knight riding a horse made of bones and a dummy zombie boasting a height of 4 meters.
Although the number was small, it was true that the power had increased beyond comparison with the previous one.
It’s an unbelievable sight even up to this point.
[Pulse Witch receives divine power and changes its appearance.]
[Creature Priest]
-4-star monster.
– An unclean monster that was resurrected based on its past as a priest.
– This object is accompanied by the protection of Prelia, the goddess of ice.
The pulse witch, who was the leader of the undead, became a 4-star monster.
A battle that lasted for hours.
While zombies and skeletons buy time, higher species give significant damage.
Skeleton Knight, a 3-star monster, hacked the Guardian and broke the core, and the dummy zombie threw his whole body to tank.
Even so, the undead army continued to be pushed back.
If he moved tactically, he could have stopped 400 Guardians, but he couldn’t.
“That guy has a problem.”
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and cast his gaze away.
Normal guardians are not a problem. Because the higher level Undead can move organically and block it.
I also defeated over 30 Guardians.
The problem is the guardian’s head purification agent.
The number of undead killed by that guy was in double digits.
Among them were Skeleton Knights and Dummy Zombies, so the core strength of the Undead Corps had to continue retreating.
I also need to catch him. If I fall in, will these guys be able to stop the Guardian?
I’ve calculated it, but I’m not sure. That’s how dire the situation is.
“Kihiiik.”
Then the Creature Priest, who was commanding the battlefield, flew to me.
The place was burnt by fire.
“Kiyi.”
He pointed to the agent of purification.
I know that there is no answer as it is.
I want to go too. I want to go, but I don’t know how long it will take to get there, and I don’t know if the undead will hold out until I catch him.
After all, the quest was to protect the village. It’s not about defeating the enemy’s chief.
“Am I frustrated too?”
“Kiyi.”
Whether or not he understood my words, the Creature Priest joined his hands and began to pray.
Divine power and light bursting out.
[Blessing of the Unclean Priest]
– The energy of the ice goddess Prelia protects the body.
The Creature Priest gave a blessing.
this feels weird
Get a buff from a monster.
It was a heterogeneous sensation, but the effect was certain.
Ambient temperature drastically lowered.
My condition recovered and my body became lighter.
“To that.”
The same goes for Deokchun.
The appearance of suffering from the heat disappeared and showed a lively appearance.
The Creature Priest, who confirmed that the blessing had been entered, summoned the higher species.
“Tattak. Right.”
“Geuuuu.”
One Skeleton Knight. One dummy zombie.
3 Skeleton Warriors and 3 Archers each. Two ghouls and two anglers.
“Kiyi.”
Creature Priest pointed to the battlefield again.
The finger points to the agent of purification.
The Creature Priest, who used enormous divine power, had a pale complexion, but his eyes were intense.
He knows that too. That there is no chance of winning.
That if I can’t defeat the enemy’s leader, I will be defeated.
A detached squad made up of 12 undead.
It was the last resort the Undead Legion could take.
“I know what you mean. Leave it to me. Deokchun is also preparing.”
“Ahhhh.”
At the same time, it was the only way I could clear the quest.
He kicked his feet without delay.
Even at this moment, the undead are being crushed by the inferiority of the enemy.
– Kaga gak gak!
The guys who escorted me also sped up.
Skeleton Knights with good mobility are in the forefront.
Hits the guardian and clears the path while pulling off aggro.
“catch!”
The balance of the battlefield collapses.
At my command, Ghouls and Preta capture the Guardians.
The Skeleton Archer fires support from the rear, and the Skeleton Warrior helps the Skeleton Knight not to be captured.
Lastly, which dummy zombie can overwhelm the Guardian with just one size?
“Goooooooooooo!”
The Skeleton Knight blocked the Guardian who was running to block the pierced path.
“Crack. mow!”
The Skeleton Knight, who swept through the enemy camp and returned, gave me a hand.
means tar.
I took his hand and climbed onto the horse.
It was hard to describe the feel of his hands made of bones, but I could see his will to win.
“let’s go.”
I ran forward leaving behind the undead of the detached squad dying at the Guardian.
The remains of fallen guardians everywhere.
Skeleton bone fragments mixed with each other.
A part of a zombie’s body that emits a stench when its entire body is crushed and exploded.
-Kiaaaaaa!
A Creature Priest’s scream that pours out buffs and recovery blessings as if burning the soul.
Everything was dyed black in the flames of the Guardian.
– Kwaaaaang!
The agent of divine weapon purification, which overturned all of that, was declaring the end of the village by striking down a huge hammer.
About 3 kilometers to reach him.
There are approximately 200 Guardians left.
Less than 50 undead holding out.
It’s breaking through faster than you think.
How long can the undead last?
2 hours? Or 1 hour?
To be honest, I wonder if it will stop for 30 minutes.
That’s what I mean...
“I have to defeat him in there.”
Skeleton Knight drove the horse roughly.
The guy gets closer.
