"Whether we can save these people and how many we can save will probably affect the support the Savior Army will receive in the future. Make a decision quickly!"
Wang: "Let Master Li Guang go down and kill the invading monsters one by one. Assign an airship to Master Li Guang for maneuvering."
There was silence on the sound stone for a few seconds, and Rosalie replied, "It has been executed. But this is only a temporary solution, not a permanent one. It is also unrealistic to transport all the people gathered in the safe zone to the floating island. We don't have that much transportation capacity."
Wang: “I’m thinking.”
Rosalie: "We need more conventional forces! The enemy's tactics are aimed at our lack of conventional forces!"
Wang: "Don't make a noise, I'm thinking... Wait, I got it! Legion! Didn't I just order to identify the Catalan Legion? There are resistance forces in the Catalan Legion who are dissatisfied with their actions! I'll contact them!"
Rosalie: "Eh? You came to contact me? This..."
Wang cut off the communication and patted Xiao Bai's neck: "Go back to the position of the resistance centurion you just saw."
Xiaobai turned around immediately.
Relying on the animals' sensitivity to positions, Wang soon saw the "Catalan troops" flying different flags.
Xiaobai lowered the altitude, and Wang shouted: "Everyone, we need your help!"
The people on the ground looked up and saw a Catalan general dressed as a centurion striding out of the army formation and standing in the middle of an open space.
Wang patted Xiaobai's neck and said, "Land."
The griffin swooped down and landed in front of the general. The strong wind from the griffin's powerful wings swept across the general's cheek, but the general did not move at all.
Wang: "We have established a safe zone on the Pilgrimage Avenue through Holy Light. But now we need professional troops to protect the safe zone. Our conventional forces are not enough."
General: "We are not from Isonzo. Give us a reason to fight for the Isonzo people."
Wang: "What are you talking about? The world is in danger. When the evil star falls, soldiers all over the world will fight bloody battles."
The thousand-man commander looked back at the centurions, then asked solemnly, "What evil star has come?"
The king pointed to the sky and said, "We have interpreted the logs of the Blasphemers and determined that their actions are intended to guide the ancient evil god named Ragnora to fall from the sky, literally. Our current mission is to gather the army and wait for it to land before killing it."
The centurion frowned: "Are you sure it can be killed? Isn't it the god mentioned by the state religion?"
Wang: "Of course it can be killed. In fact, every time it returns to the main material plane, it will keep repeating the process of invading a crystal wall system and then landing, until it is destroyed by the heroes of the crystal wall system and sent back to nothingness. Then it will take five hundred years to return to the main material plane."
Lily added, "Actually, I think there should be a way to kill it completely, but it escaped before the heroes found the way - or before the heroes successfully killed it. Do you feel full of courage to fight the evil star when I say this?"
The captain: "Indeed. But before that, we must first liberate our homeland which is controlled by the evil demon king. Look at what Isonzo looks like now, we don't want Catalai to become like this."
Wang turned his head and looked at the street littered with the corpses of monsters killed by this resistance force, looking at the innocent people who were caught up in the battle.
The centurion continued, "In addition, we have another practical difficulty. The damn emperor withheld our supplies. We have been fighting until now relying on the supplies donated by patriots. Now we have run out of fireball scrolls and acid arrow scrolls."
After the general finished speaking, a wizard-like person behind him said, "And our own spells have already been exhausted. If we encounter monsters next time, the soldiers still have some fire glue on hand. We will have to use the fire glue to throw monsters next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier shouted: "Monster!"
The next moment, a monster that had devoured many people and had grown to an extremely huge size climbed over the building on the side of the street and rushed towards the Catalan army with a strange cry.
Before the king could respond, Elizabeth shouted, "Petrification ray!"
A ray hit the monster, just one spot at first, but in the blink of an eye the petrification symptoms spread to the entire body of the monster.
The monster's tentacles struggled a bit, but became completely motionless after two seconds.
The king turned to the captain and said, "Why are you still standing there? Smash the statue quickly. The cult's magicians may be able to remove the petrification."
The centurion waved his hand and said, "Go!"
Wang Ze took out the voice stone and said, "Rosalie, we have a thousand-man team here that needs supplies. Send the airship over! I'll send a signal right away. Let your lookout keep an eye on it!"
"You send it!" Rosalie responded.
Wang immediately took out a signal tube from his dimensional bag, pointed the side without the rope at the sky, and then pulled the rope hard.
A flare shot into the sky, exploding red.
Chapter 389 Searching for the Legion Commander
The supply ship arrived soon and sent down scrolls, food and fresh water supplies via ropes.
And of course, there’s liquor.
Now that healing spells cannot be used, strong liquor has become the guarantee for the wounded to stay alive - although strong liquor is useless for serious injuries, disinfection is always good, at least it can ensure that the wounded will not turn into monsters.
Wang: "Just eat while moving. We need you to guard the safe zone."
The captain said: "If the safe zone is the entire pilgrimage route, then our thousand people are not enough. I suggest you go find the legion commander. Our legion commander just doesn't want to become a traitor because of his family's loyalty to the royal family. But seeing the current situation, his mind will change."
Wang: "Then I will go find him. Please leave immediately. Right now, there is only one monk defending the entire safe zone."
"A high monk?" The centurion frowned. "A high monk defending?"
Wang: "He is a senior monk who has mastered the Penetration Power. He can kill these monsters with just one palm strike. You will know when he gets there."
"Got it, we'll set off now." The captain saluted and turned to give his orders to his men, "Alright, we'll eat on the way, now assemble and set off!"
The Catalan legion was well-trained and it only took them a minute to assemble, and then the rest of the thousand-man team set off.
The captain saluted the king again, then mounted his horse and followed the team.
Lily: "Where should we go to find this legion commander? From the fortress? We have already bombed the fortress. Maybe this legion commander has something against us."
Wang: "A good general stays with his troops. This legion commander seems to have a good relationship with his soldiers. I guess he is not in the fortress."
Elizabeth: "How do I find it?"
Wang: "Have you forgotten that I am a wizard from the School of Prophecy?"
As he spoke, Wang took out a wooden stick and performed the most basic spell to find someone.
After he finished chanting the spell, the stick pointed directly to the southwest.
Although it seems that Wang, the man holding the wooden stick, is pointing directly to the southwest, this is actually the effect of a spell to find people. During the spell's effectiveness, as long as Wang relaxes his hand holding the wooden stick, the stick will automatically point in the direction of the person he is looking for.
Wang: "Xiaobai, take off!"
Xiaobai: "Gah!"
Elizabeth was surprised. "Xiao Bai didn't speak for so long. I'm a little surprised. She's so good. Give her some jerky."
Elizabeth said as she took out some jerky from her dimensional bag and leaned forward to stuff it into Xiaobai's mouth.
As a result, this action caused her front armored bulletproof exterior to press tightly against Lily's back.
Lily: "Did you do this on purpose?"
Elizabeth: "?"
Xiaobai was crunching the dried meat and was in a very good mood. He even flew much faster.
In the next few minutes, Xiaobai passed through a city that seemed like hell on earth, with rampant monsters and the cries of innocent people everywhere.
Elizabeth tried her best to shoot the monsters at first, but soon her magic power ran out.
The king shouted "To the Pilgrimage Road" and fired holy light to burn the monster.
Lily chose to save her own spells, preparing to deal with the high-end combat power of the cult that might appear later. She expressed envy at the king's seemingly endless holy light: "Is the Holy Knight so good? It's a perpetual motion machine of holy light!"
King: "I am borrowing the power of the gods. Once we become planeswalkers ourselves, we will be able to use almost endless spells to destroy the enemy."
Planeswalkers are mages and need to abide by the limitations of spell slots, but they jump out of the timeline. As long as there is no other planeswalker to restrict their free entry and exit of the timeline, planeswalkers have endless spells to fight against the enemy - I have used up all my spells today, guess what, I will have them again tomorrow!
Of course, this thing also has side effects. The planeswalker has his own independent timeline. No matter how he cuts into other timelines, his own timeline is fixed.
For example, now, assuming that Lily is already a planeswalker, she casts spells today and leaves, and comes back tomorrow. If Lily casts spells here for a whole year, she will have to run to this time point to cast spells for the rest of the year.
Incidentally, in her own timeline, she had no spells to cast for the rest of the day.
Of course, planeswalkers can run around and hide anywhere in the multiverse. They just need to find a place to hide and pass the time without spells.
In short, the power of the planeswalker comes at a price, and the gods can output unlimited power as long as the mortals who serve as carriers can bear it.
After Wang gave a brief explanation, Lily nodded and said, "Sure enough, write this as your paper this year. It will definitely get a high score. Let me sign my name on it!"
Wang: "You only care about your signature! Look at the people of Yisongzuo who are still suffering. Can't you care about them a little more?"
"I care, I care! I can help you record your perspective from a bystander's perspective. I'm good at writing this kind of report. Putting it in your paper can increase its credibility and improve your score. But I want my name on it."
Wang: "...Okay, I'll give you my name. You'll be in charge of the statistics in the future!"
"it is good!"
Elizabeth: "Can I also take part in this? I don't know what you are going to do..."
Lily: "Forget it, just wait for the king to help you upgrade."
Wang: "No, I haven't decided to upgrade her yet."
Lily: "That's Rosalie? After I help her upgrade, I can always keep her by my side as a housekeeper. How great! She's so capable and everything is in order. Or Xiaobai will be fine too. She'll have a mount wherever she goes."
Wang was about to reply, but Lily changed the subject: "Now that you have experienced the true power of God, isn't that enough for you to understand the power of God as mighty as a mountain?"
Wang: "Are you kidding me? I haven't even mastered the Sixth Ring yet, how can I understand the Nineth Ring's divine power?"
"That's not certain. Look, you used holy light to kill 80% of the monsters in one go. The scene below would have been ten times worse if it weren't for you. You have already thought beyond common sense, okay? What's wrong with comprehending the nine-ring magic in advance?" Lily said confidently.
Wang shook his head: "Don't make trouble. Jumping directly to the ninth ring is too outrageous."
As he was speaking, the wooden stick in Wang's hand suddenly sank and pointed at the ground.
Wang: "Right down there! Let's land!"
Xiaobai dived down immediately and pulled himself up once he reached the ground.
Then they saw the monsters wantonly ravaging the remnants of the legion.
A gorgeously decorated military flag was lying on the ground, stained with blood.
Wang was shocked: "It's over, we are too late. The commander of the corps is probably dead..."
Lily: "Whether he's dead or not, we can just catch one and ask him."
Necromancer Lily said so.
Chapter 390 No, I failed again.
Lily immediately began to cast a spell.
