Chapter 86 Race Against Time

too slow.

Standing on the altar, looking at the busy cultists below, with a gloomy face in the black robe, he stretched out his hand and looked at the flickering flames in his palm, as if it was a portrayal of his mood at the moment. In general, the dark red radiance between the palms of the hand gradually became brighter.

According to the plan, the idiot should have brought the captives to this ruined city now, why is there no trace of it until now? Could it be that something happened to him? Or was there any trouble that was delayed? Shouldn't it be? That guy keeps his communication skills. If he encounters any problems, he should contact him as soon as possible...

Of course, the Destruction Mage did not know that the bald Mage Charles naturally wanted to contact him, but the problem was that his brain was locked by Nimf, so that he could not use any magic means at all. That's why, until now, the Destruction Mage has no idea what's going on in the camp.

However, it is almost time to reach the limit.

"Snapped."

The Destruction Mage stood up and snapped his fingers. Soon, he saw a little demon hovering in the sky flying up and kneeling respectfully in front of the Destruction Mage.

"You go see what happened to that idiot."

Hearing the order of the Destruction Mage, the little demon let out a low cry, and then it spread its wings and flew into the air. After turning around, he turned around and flew towards the mountains.

"It's troublesome."

At the same time, Fang Zheng also got the news over there through Nimf's report.

"The other party seems to have become suspicious, and they sent a little demon to check the situation in the camp."

"It's not easy to delay for so long... What should I do, do you want me to send someone to intercept that little demon?"

"You better not do it."

Stone's voice just fell, and the thin old man in the bishop's robe shook his head with a gloomy face.

"The little monster is summoned by the summoner, and there is telepathy between them. Once you make a move, even if you kill the little monster. As long as it is noticed by the destroyer, then everything we do will fall short."

"Then what?"

Hearing the old man's answer, Stone frowned.

"I can't just let it investigate, that little demon discovered the camp..."

"give it to me."

However, before Stone could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the old man.

"I'll deal with that little demon, which should buy us some time, but..."

Having said this, the old man glanced at the sky.

"If the reinforcements haven't appeared by the time the Star of Guidance appears, then we will have to do it. Once the Destruction Mage realizes that something is wrong, things will become more complicated..."

"All right."

Hearing the old man's answer, Stone thought for a while, and finally nodded helplessly.

"That's all there is to it, please be careful."

"Do not worry."

Facing Stone's words, a gloomy smile appeared on the cold face of the old man.

"I've lived longer than you, this kind of thing couldn't be easier for me."

"Shh!"

I saw behind the old man, a pair of dark, bat-like wings suddenly grew. At the same time, the old man's tall and thin body like an air-dried specimen began to swell, and his white hair began to turn black. In the blink of an eye, the old man who looked tall and thin before, who was almost dying, turned into a handsome and handsome man, and the expression on his face at this moment did not have the icy refusal that he had before. The appearance of thousands of miles away, but with a gentle and elegant smile that makes people feel like a spring breeze.

I saw the "old" bishop smiled and nodded at Fangzheng, and then he spread his wings and rushed into the sky like a bolt of lightning.

what the hell? !

Fang Zheng stared at the "old" Bishop's figure in a stunned manner, his mouth wide open and he didn't know what to say. He blinked, then looked at Stone beside him.

Obviously, he needs an answer.

"Surprise."

Shi Dong obviously enjoyed Fang Zheng's reaction, and at this moment he looked at Fang Zheng with a smile, and then answered.

"Don't look at the seriousness and rigidity of Bishop Carl, but he is a vampire count, and he is a devout believer in the temple."

"...There are still vampires in the temple?"

Fang Zheng only felt that all the novels he had read before were fake novels.

"certainly."

Facing Fang Zheng's question, Stone nodded.

"The Temple of Order maintains order, and we welcome all like-minded members to join us in protecting the order. Regardless of race, occupation, or background. As long as you are willing to protect order and fight chaos, that's ours. friend."

"But... aren't vampires supposed to suck blood?"

Fangzheng was completely unable to understand at this moment.

"Of course, ordinary vampires need blood, but a devout believer like Bishop Karl has been able to gain enough power from the Holy Light, so unless it's a critical moment, he doesn't need blood."

"That means, there are many vampires in the temple?"

Wow, this temple is really big.

"of course not."

Facing Fang Zheng's question, Stone shook his head.

"In fact, only a very small number of vampires can resist the temptation of blood to join the temple and become one of us. Most of them cannot leave the power and happiness that blood brings to them, and they cannot abandon this evil behavior. So we just accept vampires who are like us and who are willing to abandon this bad habit as our companions."

"Then...Aren't you worried that they will say one thing and do another?"

"Of course not. When these vampires gain power through holy light, they also make sacred oaths. Once they break their oath, the holy light in their bodies will turn into flames and burn these oath-breakers to ashes. Of course. , it's not just limited to vampires."

"I see……"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng nodded, and he finally understood what Stone meant. That said, if vampires are like addicts, the temple is more like a drug rehab center. If there are vampires who want to get rid of this "drug addiction", the temple will help them and become their companions. Of course, this is only limited to those vampires (Stone) who are willing to actively accept the guidance of the Holy Light of Order. As for those vampires who are still immersed in blood and power, they are also their targets.

"And what about the lich?"

"Liches are different."

When it came to this topic, Stone's expression suddenly became serious.

"Vampires can be forgiven, because many of them are forced to become vampires, but the lich is different. They voluntarily gave up their lives and transformed into undead existences. The lich played with the souls of mortals and made them No peace, this is absolutely not allowed, so necromancers and liches have always been our targets."

"I see………"

Hearing this, Fangzheng finally had a clear understanding of the temple's attitude. It was obvious that the temple judged who was their enemy, not simply by their background, but more by their behavior. Just like the lich and the necromancer, the reason why the temple destroys them is not because of their status, but because of their sinful behavior of playing with the sleeping dead... Well, thinking of this, Fangzheng decided to kill Malthael and Arthas The soul stone is hidden a little deeper... It seems that in the main world, these two can never be used anymore.

The vampire bishop's movements were obviously fast, and it didn't take long for Fang Zheng and Stone to see him return again. But the difference from before is that this time, behind the old bishop, there was a little demon. But at this moment, this little demon is completely no longer the cunning and ferocious look that Fang Zheng had seen before. Instead, his eyes were dull, and he looked like a puppet—well, considering that the old bishop was a vampire, Fang Zheng felt that he had already guessed. What did he do to that little monster.

The crisis is temporarily lifted, but the situation has not improved.

Time passed minute by minute, until nightfall, when the reinforcements finally arrived before the last moment.

However, they brought an even more surprising news to everyone.

The Fortress of Order is in danger!
