Chapter 344 Professional Robbery, Sapphire's Crisis 【Subscription】
I saw that the jar flashed with black light and trembled slightly, as if something had been put into the jar.
Zong Shen couldn't even think about why the remnant of the dreadlord Balnazar was in the jar.
Quickly put the jar and the rusted dagger stained with demon blood in the storage compartment.
At this time, the three saint elders sensed something was wrong, and turned sharply to look at the original position, only to find that the jar and the dagger were all gone.
"Block the entrance to the hall!"
They shouted in unison, but unfortunately they were a step late. The fourth-tier Avalon strong fencers had an advantage in dealing with these third-tier Jackdaw Euphorbia warriors.
In particular, these church warriors were not affected by the Raven Ritual and were still in a state of residual blood.
When Zong Shen ran past them, the three Avalon strong fencers had already beaten the four bloodless Jackdaw Euphorbia warriors into a coma and a near-death state.
The enemy in the dying state met the requirements of being captured. Zong Shen waved his hand and put it into the prisoner's space, and then quickly left the hall and entered the aisle.
The three saint elders and the other jackdaws tried to enter the aisle, but were blocked by the three Avalon strong fencers.
This set of operations was so smooth that it caught them by surprise. Outside the entrance of the aisle, there were three clones that looked almost exactly like Sapphire, standing there.
They could never have imagined that there was a team of heretical giant knights and a team of Calamity mages guarding them. How did these uninvited guests come down.
Zong Shenke doesn't have so many worries anymore, the things have been obtained, and now all he has to do is to quickly evacuate from here. , flying towards the top.
Flying in the air must be much faster than climbing. It only took half a minute for him to fly to the position near the ground. He did not rush to leave, but stopped and took out the guard sword. Cut off all the braided ropes.
It wasn't over yet, he took out three or four goblin detonators, and after they were all ignited, they silently counted for three seconds before letting them fall towards the well.
After the goblin detonator ignites, there is an eight-second ignition time, and after three seconds of waiting, that's five seconds.
In this way, the detonator can be detonated when it falls into the middle and lower section of the well.
After throwing the goblin detonator, Zong Shen immediately controlled his body and continued to lift into the air without turning his head.
At this time, he had ended the stealth state of the shadow clone, and when his body flew out of the mine, it attracted the attention of the soldiers of the church.
It's just that Zong Shen is still transformed into Sapphire, and the surrounding church warriors can only watch him fly into the sky.
We don't know, and we don't dare to ask!
Four or five seconds later, when Zong Shen had already flown to a position forty or fifty meters above the well.
There was an obvious explosion in the passage of the underground well.
The corner of Zong Shen's mouth twitched, and his figure continued to remain in the air. After another two seconds, the sound of explosions and vibrations came from the ground.
"Boom!"
The sound of the explosion and the air flow emanated from the wellhead.
Only then did the group of heretical giant knights and calamity mages who stayed on the ground noticed something was wrong.
They hurried to the mouth of the well and checked it, only to find that the explosion just now had blocked the passage of the well.
Especially in the second half, there was an obvious collapse, with a thickness of hundreds of meters.
Without the assistance of a magic drilling machine, it would take at least two days for manpower to re-dig this collapsed well.
When they checked the situation and suddenly raised their heads, Zong Shen had used the levitation technique to quickly fly away from the area, disappeared, and could not be traced.
He found a random direction and flew away from the Bone Burial Ground, detoured for a while, and after observing the situation, he returned to the previous position and landed on the ground.
Although the time-limitation of the transformation potion has not ended, he still directly released the effect of transformation and restored his original appearance.
As soon as he landed, he immediately rode on Bajie's back and waved to the wolf cavalry and the Immortal Lancers behind him.
"Let's go, we'll rush to Odo Village now."
From this position, the pale golden light emanating from the Raven Lady Sapphire can still be seen.
But at this moment, this pale golden light is far less brilliant and bright than before.
Obviously, Sapphire is almost unable to continue the Raven Ritual.
Zong Shen rode the Bajie pig at full speed to Odo Village, and after seven or eight minutes, they arrived at the north of Odo Village.
Zong Shen glanced at the village, the battle was still going on, but the momentum was much smaller.
Most of the buildings in the village have been destroyed. There are collapsed village houses and the ruins of various buildings everywhere. Many village houses have even been set on fire, and the fire is raging, illuminating the situation in the village.
Only about one-third of the soldiers of the Crusade Army were left, and all of them were injured, including the Blue Owl cavalry of that squadron. There were only forty or fifty cavalry left, and half of them had lost their horses.
And there were only thirty soldiers left on the side of the Church of Calamity Ravens.
Although they can activate their full potential under the Raven Ritual, they can even overdraw their own lives, thus possessing a short-lived undead body.
But it didn't mean that they wouldn't be bound. Some of the church warriors were nailed to the ground by lances, and some were bound by chains and scythes and hemp ropes.
In the battle, the Crusaders have found a way to deal with these church warriors, that is, to find a way to control them.
...
In addition to the protagonists of the warring parties, the vicinity of the Raven Tower was even more chaotic.
A large number of lords rushed into the village with their warriors. They tried to loot the warehouses in the village near the Raven's Tower, while taking away the farmers and captured warriors.
As a result, it was strongly blocked by the group of heretical giant knights who stayed under the Raven Tower.
In a single encounter, he used a lance charge to kill dozens of people on the lord's side.
At this moment, another group of uninvited guests rushed under the tower and started a crazy operation.
The number of these lords is too large. When they gather together, there are seven or eight hundred people, and these lords have a lot of bells and whistles.
They came to the surroundings of Odo Village more than ten minutes ago, and they have seen it all the time.
He also discovered how the Crusades could deal with these Calamity Raven Church warriors.
As a result, various control-type props greeted these heretical giant knights, bound them in place, and then quickly tied them with a hemp rope.
Because these heretical giant knights are in a special state and cannot be captured, these lords prepare to rush to the tower after subduing these heretical giant knights.
However, they found that an uninvited guest had arrived there first, and had already taken away a group of farmers.
There are dozens of people accompanying them, and they should also be the lords of a certain party.
I saw the one headed, carrying a longbow and a hood, and took out three crawler-type magic mechas with backhands. Dozens of people took action one after another, taking the farmers and soldiers prisoners into the cargo bucket one by one. .
Their movements were fast, and their postures were also rough. Each bucket was almost filled with seventy or eighty people, forming a crumbling mountain of people.
The whole process took less than half a minute, and the three load-bearing mechs drove away
This is not the end, among the remaining dozens of people, the stronger hands each carried a farmer, and the weaker also picked up a farmer and turned around and left.
When the crowd arrived, they had already left hundreds of meters. Some of the lords wanted to pursue them, but after seeing that there were four or five hundred farmers and prisoners left in the same place, they all began to snatch them in place.
Although the group of people just kidnapped a lot, there are more left in the place, and it is better to just start robbing them instead of chasing them.
As a result, the seventy or eighty lords were all snatched on the spot.
Outside the village, the communication crystal on Zong Shen's chest lit up, and Vereesa sent a communication request.
Zong Shen quickly chose to connect.
Vereesa's slightly panting voice came from the other end of the communication crystal.
"Huh...huh..."
"My lord, I have successfully led a team to abduct more than 300 farmers and captive soldiers from the village."
Zong Shen was overjoyed when he heard the words, it was impossible to eat alone in this chaos, and it was not bad to be able to get more than 300 farmers and captive soldiers.
All of this requires an excellent timing to enter the arena. Vereesa and the others have far exceeded Zong Shen's expectations.
"Well done, now return to the territory immediately!"
"At the same time, ask for the support of the territory, let Mariel take out the goblin airship, and two goblin pilots will drive the airship to meet you."
"I'll let the Wolf Riders and the Immortal Lancers come to support you."
"Disperse the personnel, and both the giant wolf and the war horse can carry an extra person."
Zong Shen hurriedly instructed that the most important task for Vereesa and the others now was to safely bring these farmers and captive warriors back to the territory.
"I understand my lord, I will contact Mariel and lead the team to the east."
Vereesa replied quickly, and then hung up the communication crystal.
"Cecilia, Colby, you immediately lead the team to the east."
"Escort Vereesa and the others back to the territory, and let those warriors without mounts ride with you."
"Remember, your mission is to bring those farmers and captive soldiers back to the territory as quickly as possible!"
Zong Shen commanded in a hasty tone, he had left Vereesa in the east of the village for this moment.
These farmers and captive warriors are the most scarce population resources in the current development of the territory, and they must not be lost.
After listening to Zong Shen's words, Colby and Cecilia nodded, understanding the importance of the matter, and without saying much, they led the soldiers to the east.
On the spot, Zong Shen watched Colby and the others leave in the east. He rode on Bajie like this, raised his head and continued to look into the village.
The radiance around the Raven Saint Sapphire has dimmed to the extreme, and it is really about to run out of fuel.
The lords under the tower were looting farmers and captive warriors, and some of them took it as soon as they saw it, and quickly left Odo Village with seven or eight farmers.
While some fought for more farmers, the scene became more and more chaotic.
It was at this time that the crusades also reached the vicinity of the tower.
At the top of the Raven Tower, Sapphire exhausted the last trace of her faith, and she even spent her own strength in order to maintain the Raven Ritual for a while longer.
Now she can no longer maintain the Raven Ceremony, the surrounding light has completely disappeared, and the whole person has fallen to the top of the Raven Tower.
Her face was pale and she was almost unsteady. The deacons behind her immediately surrounded her and helped her up.
Losing the support of the Raven Ritual, those church warriors who suffered countless injuries but never died, also ended their lives at this moment.
The crusade army is like a broken bamboo, and it is about to kill the tower of the raven.
This operation of the Church of Calamity Ravens ultimately failed.
The faces of the few deacons who stayed on the tower showed decisive expressions.
They all sat in place, opened their wrists with daggers, collected blood drop by drop on the ground in front of them, and then began to sing mysterious magic incantations.
A cloud of black light emerged from the blood, wrapped the weak Raven Saint Saffrey, and fell directly under the tower, and then wrapped her in the northeast direction outside the village, trying to escape into the northern hills.
Wu Guang's speed is not fast, only a little faster than the average grassland horse, but it is also Saffrey's only means of escape at present.
The crusade saw that Sapphire was swept away by the black light, and immediately divided into two parts. The blue owl knight and the infantry soldiers rushed to the Raven Tower.
And Quinnir took the remaining dragonborn knights to pursue Saint Sapphire.
Zong Shen narrowed his eyes, riding Bajie and chasing in the direction where Saintess Sapphire left.
The speed of that black light is only faster than that of ordinary grassland horses, but it is far less than that of the dragon-scale war horse under the crotch of the dragonborn knight. It is only a matter of time before it is caught up.
About twelve or thirteen kilometers northeast of the territory, after crossing the Bone Burial Ground, the Raven Saint Saffrey was caught up by the Dragonborn Knight.
A team of dragonborn knights took the lead in intercepting Sapphire with the advantage of speed.
The back was covered in blood, and Quinnir, whose armor was broken, also caught up with the remaining dragonborn knights of less than four teams, and directly surrounded the Raven Saint Sapphire.
A blood-stained lance all pointed at Sapphire's snow-white neck.
All the knights lifted their active masks, and their faces were all filled with expressions of resentment.
Now is Sapphire's real big crisis!
