Chapter 860 I Fight the Crusaders? !

"I have set up a temporary arcane barrier array here, and it needs to be recharged every half an hour to maintain it."

"If the barrier is impacted, its effective time will be shorter, so you need to pay attention to this!"

"You can roughly tell its current state through the light effect."

Seeing the knowledge seekers arrive here one after another through the [Summoning Ceremony], Countess Ceylon breathed a sigh of relief.

Quickly inform everyone of the things that need to be paid attention to in the array, and immediately there are volunteered mage believers:

"I'll do it, I know this!"

The task of recharging the array is actually a hard work for the mage.

There is not much technical content.

Enter the meditative state, guide the arcane energy in the magic network to replenish the array, and maintain the normal operation of the magic.

Usually, this work can be replaced by magic crystals.

This is also the operating principle of various arrays in the mage tower.

But the current conditions are tight, and there is no time to transfer enough magic crystals to maintain the long-term stable operation of the magic circle. They can only use the most primitive "human crystal" first, and use the magician as a magic crystal.

With this barrier to provide shelter, they can provide a relatively safe place to welcome the continuous arrival of help.

"Where is the ritual to be destroyed in the mission? Where are the cultists!"

Brandon looked around aggressively, trying to find the exact target of the [Stop the Ritual] mission they received.

He has already grasped the weapon in his hand, and he looks like he will rush over and beat the opponent up and chop him into minced meat as soon as he finds the target.

When it comes to dealing with cultists, Brandon is now quite experienced.

There is no point in fighting the monsters summoned by the cultists, or the followers who are bewitched and controlled by them.

These things are simply "consumables", and the cultists don't care about their casualties at all!

Anyway, the monsters can be summoned again after they die. As long as there are enough sacrifices, they can summon as many as they want;

As for those bewitched followers, their original fate was to be pushed to sacrifice after being used up and squeezed out of their final value. Now it is nothing more than using their "value" in another way.

The best way to really deal a heavy blow to the cultists is to carry out a decapitation operation!

Kill the leader and the guy who presides over the ceremony;

Without the blessing and influence of the evil god's power, these guys who take the crooked path will become very fragile!

…

The Countess of Ceylon raised her hand with an ugly face and pointed to the golden light column that penetrated the sky not far away.

"That's it."

"What the hell?!!"

Brandon almost gasped and passed out.

The exclamation was a little out of tune.

In his imagination.

Shouldn't the ceremony performed by the "cultists" be like the one in the Blood Roulette Stronghold, or the one performed by the "envoy" in the stone fortress.

It looked extremely evil at first glance. The area was full of corpses and dried blood left by sacrifices, and there were strange cultists lurking around.

But the so-called golden light column in front of him was clearly emitting an extremely sacred aura, like a reassuring dawn and hope in this bloody world.

Now he was told that this thing was a ritual performed by cultists?

It didn't look like it at all!

Countess Ceylon confirmed solemnly:

"There is one thing we got wrong."

"Although it is hard to believe, the church ceremony that the oracle asked us to stop this time was not promoted by cultists."

"It was... presided over by Archbishop Harris Eugene of the Glorious God!"

Everyone present.

Every one of them.

They were stunned.

"Gudong."

Brandon swallowed hard:

"Are you... sure?"

Countess Ceylon nodded: "Re-read your mission instructions, the target is very clear."

"Impossible!?"

The second person to scream in shock was Miranda, who had just been summoned and couldn't even stand.

For others, the fact that the ceremony was presided over by the Archbishop of the Glowing God was a shock to them, but for Miranda, it was like another heavy blow to her worldview, which had already been greatly impacted!

She was completely stunned.

Not everyone in the Glowing God would be so devout in observing the doctrine, not everyone could perform their duties well, and even dereliction of duty and betray their beliefs.

Miranda already understood and felt this.

But the person who took the lead in abandoning the Glowing God was Archbishop Harris Eugene? !

A large number of Crusaders on the border defense line were also willing to obey his orders, and together caused this disaster that caused the [Past Glory] barrier to disappear? !

Miranda couldn't believe it.

She had seen Harris Eugene in person more than a month ago. He looked so sacred and majestic at that time, and he didn't look like someone who would do such a thing at all!

After a moment's reaction, she subconsciously tried to make up for it:

"Could it be that the ritual was tampered with and something went wrong!"

"We have to find a way to stop the ritual from going on and rescue the Archbishop and the others!"

The person who answered this question was Gail.

His voice also became a little heavy.

"I'm afraid... not."

"The instructions for the mission have been updated, Mimi, you can take a look again."

[Mission: Stop the Ritual]

[Description: Harris Eugene, the honorable cardinal from the Glorious God Church, the head of the Cardinals, found a way to suppress the divine barrier through rituals for their plans and goals. Countless ordinary people have lost the greatest shelter they rely on for survival, and they are facing the threat of slaughter by monsters at any time! ]

[Stop them before this disaster deteriorates to a point where it is completely irreversible! ]

[Goal: Defeat Harris Eugene, stop the "Protocol No. 3 Ritual" from proceeding, and restore the former glorious barrier! ]

[Task Reward: None]

[Warning: Participating in this mission will lead to hostile reputation of the Glorious God Church! ]

Tasks without rewards may even have negative effects.

Although in order to complete Norwen's instructions, for the elite personnel among the knowledge-seeking believers who came to the scene, they would not pick up knives and chop people for a mere reward and kill innocent people.

There are rewards for eliminating cultists, which is icing on the cake!

If you have the ability and the cultists have affected your life, then they have already found a way to die!

This time the situation is completely different!

The opponent they are facing has become the Crusaders on the border defense line!

It has become the Glorious God Cult that has always been active in the front line of resisting monsters!

Moreover, if we only look at this ceremony from the "appearance", it has absolutely nothing to do with the so-called "evil ceremony"!

On the contrary, those guys who are trying to destroy the ceremony look like the villains!

They seem to be the ones who really intend to destroy the [Past Glory] barrier!

"We fight the Crusaders?!"

"Really?!"
