Another five days had passed.
North of Long Island Harbor, Albany City in the middle reaches of the Hartson River. This was also the capital of Buffalo, the base camp of the ghouls.
In the corner of the ravaged and scorched street.
"Open fire!"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Accompanied by the sound of lead bullets tearing through flesh and the howls of the wild beasts, the dozen or so ghouls that had been forced into a corner of the street could only gather together and charge toward the firearms formation with bloodshot eyes, ready to fight to the death.
"Get out of the way!"
The three neat rows of musketeers immediately split to the sides.
A black-robed wizard whose spine and limbs had been transformed into mechanical constructs stepped forward. It was the evil alchemist Samuel who had joined Elvin's side the earliest.
The mechanical right arm that had been upgraded several times quickly unfolded and turned into an alchemy cannon that shone with a cold light.
Unable to change his nature, he smiled ferociously.
Kaboom!
With a loud bang, a group of ghouls that were charging forward in a group was immediately blasted into pieces. The few that still had the ability to move were surrounded and separated.
Only a rank 2 ghoul that was equivalent to an official Knight used the cover of its companions and was about to escape the siege of the soldiers. Although its body was charred and heavily injured, its face showed the joy of surviving a disaster.
As long as it escaped the siege, it would not be difficult to hide in the complicated city.
However.
It was also at this moment that a slightly short soldier suddenly shot out from the side like a bolt of lightning.
The half-sword at his waist was suddenly unsheathed.
Clang!
There were faint flashes of lightning.
[Rapid Thunder Swordsmanship, Instant Flash]
"Ugh …"
Blood spurted out from its neck and the ghoul's eyes gradually dimmed. This rank 2 ghoul with low HP was decapitated by the extremely fast sword light.
"Bach, good job!"
"So strong, maybe it won't take long for him to become an official Knight?"
The one who had decapitated the ghoul was Elvin's new fifth disciple, Kvarina Bach.
Because his talent was different from the other disciples, Elvin's training method for Bach was also different. After teaching him the basics of swordsmanship and meditation, he directly threw him into the battlefield.
From plundering overseas, to the Cumberland Defense Line, to Buffalo, he was everywhere there was a battle.
With the protection of the lamprey, the young man's "adventurer's blood" had begun to boil. He could also maximize his ability to constantly improve himself through battle.
[Rapid Thunder Swordsmanship], which focused on the balance of physical, strength, and agility, was simply tailor-made for him. Not counting the days he spent alone on the island, he had already reached the Proficient level in just four months after entering the sect.
Although the war in Buffalo was progressing smoothly.
However, Robert and William, who had pushed their command center to Albany, scratched their heads as they looked at the map of Buffalo that Beth had given them.
Limited by the degree of development of the colony, the main cities were concentrated on the banks of the Hartson River in the east. The western region was the Abayache Plateau, which was also the northernmost part of the Abayache Mountain Range, occupying about half of the territory.
On the surface, it seemed to reduce the difficulty of their work.
But Buffalo was bordered by Lake Eyre to the west, Sparkling Lake to the northeast, and between them was the Niagara River with a drop of 99 meters. The north bank of the river was the Manchak Swamp where the High Totem God "Lady Crow" resided.
Then, south of the territory was the Royal Colony, Kabushil, and north of the territory was the Pine family's Ford. But just the open shorelines of the two lakes, plus the Niagara River, had a border of 660 kilometers. At least 66 sentry posts were needed to defend against the "spirit wave".
If they were to deploy troops according to the current standards of the kingdom's colonies, they would need a total of 6600 people. Such a large amount of manpower, financial, and material expenditure was no joke.
How many people were there in the entire Buffalo population?
This was what gave the two commanders a headache. They expected that the ghouls in the second half of the battle would flee at the mere sight of them. It shouldn't be too difficult to take down Buffalo, but it was almost impossible to completely defend against the attacks of the "ghosts".
"So, what should we do?"
The two of them looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
At the same time.
North of the Niagara River, Manchak Swamp.
A guy with a mouth and eyes, a white body with a gorgeous red and yellow canopy, like a human-shaped mushroom, floated in the air, looking in the direction of Buffalo.
On the ground under his feet, there was an ugly "Bugman" with two legs and four arms, with a chitin shell.
This unconventional and unique style also indicated their identity. It was the "School of Pestilence" that spread the [Super Cyst Fungus] more than two years ago, causing chaos on the coast of the Golden Sea.
They were also the only two members left: the "Mushroom Man" that was completely composed of fungi, and the "Bugman" whose body was replaced by a head louse.
From the position of the two now, it was obvious that they had completely surrendered to the "Lady Crow".
This situation was not surprising. The "Sorcerer School" was an organization that gathered people. Who had seen a Sorcerer School that was so low that there were only two people?
Elvin: "Cough cough …"
However, no matter what, although the "School of Life" was once more down and out than them, at least the system from Level 1 Apprentice to Level 4 Crown Sorcerer had been completely established by their ancestors.
The "School of Pestilence" was just created by the four of them, and they did not even have the knowledge to advance to Level 3 Great Sorcerer.
At this moment.
Looking at the place where the guns and cannons roared in the distance, a strong negative emotion that seemed to make the air stagnate surrounded the "Mushroom Man".
Crackle crackle …
After being suppressed to the extreme, there was a faint golden electric light in the air that constantly flashed.
No matter what, he was a senior official Sorcerer who had studied the second volume of the "Flesh Sacrifice" [Flesh Puppet].
With the perception ability of a senior official Sorcerer, he could clearly feel that in the army that was wantonly killing ghouls, "ghosts", and natural spirits in Buffalo, the guards wrapped in heavy steel armor were clearly real [Flesh Puppets].
Many of the soldiers and officers were wearing dark green combat uniforms of varying strengths, and even had the research results of his "School of Pestilence" [Pathogen – Parasitic Modification] mixed in!
Two years ago, more than half of the senior members of the school were killed, the Naika Crystal Cave that was filled with germs was taken away, and he himself almost died, once again appeared in front of the "Mushroom Man's" eyes, vivid and unforgettable.
The main culprit that caused the destruction of the "School of Pestilence" was definitely related to a certain existence behind these people in front of him!
"I can still recognize the military uniform of Faletis. Just you wait, although we no longer have the autonomy now, we are no longer without anyone to rely on! "
The emotions of the "Mushroom Man" kept surging in the [Spore Cloud Telepathy], unable to calm down for a long time.
The "Bugman" on the ground that looked like a large louse also said in a gloomy and hateful voice.
"Isn't that" Wild Bull God "Belo, who just joined the Goddess, upstream of the Hartson River? Even a Level 3 Great Shaman is no match for him, maybe we can …? "
The "Mushroom Man" nodded lightly, he already had an idea in his heart.
.....
The mainland of the Kingdom of Faletis, Portsmouth Royal Navy Shipyard located south of New Haven.
Other than Queen Isabella, Crown Prince Levina, Princeton Principal, and a few elite attendants, everyone here was completely evacuated.
Looking at the time, Elvin gestured to the Queen and stepped forward.
Snap!
He snapped his fingers.
Accompanied by the emergence of green clouds, a huge ship with a unique design slowly appeared on the surface of the sea in front of them.
It was the "Star God Eyarendil's ship [Birch]" that had been turned from a blueprint into a physical object. The curved ship still looked like a crescent moon that fell on the sea, but the silver ridge of the ship had turned into an emerald color, which was more suitable for Anita's power.
Anita and Olivia, who had changed into their military uniforms, worked together to get the ship moving. It took them more than ten minutes to get the ship to a proper position in front of the port so that the people standing at the port could get a good look at it.
Elvin covered his face as he looked at it.
Using up the extraordinary ship material "Treasured Tree" and a large number of precious materials such as gems, sea monster leather, and so on, the ship's maneuverability was really difficult to explain.
If it were not for the [Symbols] that covered the entire ship, Elvin felt that the most suitable place for this beautiful crescent moon ship would be an inland lake.
Even Anita, the Great Knight, would not be able to operate it alone. Olivia, the senior official wizard, would also be needed to help. If it were to enter the battlefield in this state, there would be no other outcome other than being a live target.
Now, he could only hope that the power of the Holy Angel could truly transform it.
Under the burning gaze of the Queen and the others, Elvin raised his left hand that was branded with the "Black Iron Cross Stigmata" high above his head.
Whoosh!
A pure white beam of light emerged from the stigmata and shot straight into the sky.
In the sky … the clouds suddenly moved.
His identity as a "Holy Disciple" was actually just a title, but he did not have the corresponding divine power. Other than the [Divine Protection] that prevented him from being killed for no reason and the [Blessing] that was symbolic of a clergyman, he could not even use the simplest divine spell.
There was only the [Heavenly Messenger] in front of him.
Effect: Ignore all obstacles of the demigod level and below. Communicate with the Goddess' messenger "Angel". Whether or not the messenger responds depends on the mood of the communication target. It was somewhat like the upgraded version of the "Spirit Realm Messenger". The effect could be very weak or very strong.
And this time.
Based on the previous agreement, Holy Angel Bellenus' response speed was very fast.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Amidst the loud bell that filled the sky, a golden beam of light suddenly descended from the sky and enveloped the crescent-shaped warship. Countless small light balls with wings danced around the warship like little angels.
Onlookers might only feel that they were bathing in the warm and gentle sunlight.
Anita and Olivia, on the other hand, had experienced the strange and unexplainable changes that had occurred to them.
The huge battleship, which was built without using a single nail, was dyed pure gold by the pillar of light.
Then.
On the lonely mast in the middle of the ship's deck, the sail made from the skin of a giant sea monster was the first to turn into a ball of light that was between illusion and reality. Then the mast, the deck, the hull, the oars …
Ten minutes later, the entire warship had completely turned into a pure "Ship of Light".
Do you believe in light?
Yes!
Neigh!
Suddenly, a loud neigh of a horse sounded. A horse's head that seemed to be cast in gold grew out of the sharp bow of the warship. It also snorted like a living creature.
The "Ship Spirit" with the horse's head opened its mouth and spat out a golden ring. It fell into Anita's open palm surrounded by a ball of golden light.
With a stroke of luck, the girl put the ring on her left index finger and said softly, "Don't worry about it.
"Pegasus, [Legendary Warship — Jade Corona], activate!"
The "Ship Spirit" with the horse's head neighed softly.
Whoosh!
Four gigantic flaming pegasus phantoms flashed in front of the battleship. Then, the entire legendary battleship shone brightly and turned into a vast golden-green sun. A golden corona surrounded the sun.
Under the disbelieving gazes of the onlookers.
This huge battleship soared into the sky like the rising sun.
Whoosh!
