A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

However, those heroes are going to charge into the cathedral... Of course, the Rogues should bear the responsibility of covering their progress, they must charge closer, and they cannot let the warriors go forward alone.

Time was running out, and Kasha began to assign combat tasks to the Rogues.The youngest girls were only thirteen or fourteen years old, so they were not allowed to accompany the team this time, after all, the camp also needed guards; the rest of them formed a loose front in groups of five and charged towards the outer wall of the monastery.

Although the weapons in the hands of the girls are dominant, but the monastery is built on the mountain, and the other side is condescending, plus such and other demonic powers, it still hurts the ability of this side, so Kasha came up with it without a teacher. Skirmishers.

Their task is mainly to suppress firepower, to create the time and space for Jess and Cassia's team to break through the main gate; when the skeleton army that the Necromancer Zul feared the Rogues at first took shape, Rogue They quickly charged and occupied the towering courtyard wall of the monastery, taking advantage of the opportunity to attack the monsters in the courtyard with a depression angle.

The tactics here have been decided, and Jess and the others are about to set off there.

Deckard Kane is explaining the most important question to them: "Andariel, Queen of Pain, although her way of fighting is evil and tyrannical, in fact her greatest ability is 'poison'."

Of all those present, none knew the word better than Zur the Rathma.

He was thinking about the rune crystal that was hanging on Lakanishu in his hand, raised his head after hearing this, and asked cautiously: "What kind of poison?"

Deckard Kane, who knew this kind of thing clearly, immediately replied: "Generally speaking, it will be poisonous snake or scorpion-like venom, sprayed from the tip of her sharp tentacles... But you have to face She is a real demon king of hell, her "poison" is manifested in every aspect, even her words, her eyes, every attack of her may carry a deadly poison mist, making it difficult for you to guard against. However, we It's not impossible..."

As he spoke, he took out the "antidote" he got from Sister Akara and prepared by himself.

In this world, poisoning and detoxification are processes that can be summed up by magic. No matter what kind of poison, it will be cleaned up immediately in front of this kind of potion infused with a small amount of mana.

However, the shortcoming of this treatment method is also obvious... that is, the effect of the potion has no duration at all, and the spell will only work "once".After detoxification, it will still be poisoned again, what should I do then?Fill another bottle.

"A better way, of course, is not to be hurt by her." The necromancer took the antidote, weighed it in his hand, and finally said: "...I...have a new discovery."

Discovery, of course, came from Rakanishu, and what brought it back from the dead.

Of course, Zul didn't know how to make the medicine, and there was a raw material in it that was hard to get even in its place of origin... But he had already deciphered the changes that happened to the blue blade demon, and tried to use the spell taught by Rathma Simulated and reconstructed the effect of that potion.

general speaking……

"I can temporarily resurrect the slain monsters, become stronger, and obey my orders to destroy my enemies. But this spell is not permanent, they will also be injured and die, after the mana supporting their actions is exhausted And return to the embrace of death."

This transformation had previously been the province of demons, who would ravage their victims physically and mentally, eventually possessing them and transforming them into monsters fighting for hell.

That's how Dark Rogue came about, and Blood Umerina was also made to fall by Andariel himself; I don't know why the Queen of Pain, who is so familiar with this, saw the dead demon standing up again. What kind of expression do humans have on their faces when they fight?

Jess looked at his friends around him and smiled silently.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's kill that demon god..."

Chapter 53 The Holy Land

Inside the military barracks of the monastery, it was a messy scene at the moment.

The fallen monsters and dark monsters, who are small in size and not very intelligent, of course have no discipline at all. The barracks that were used to train and live for the Rogues have long since lost their orderly appearance in the past.The supply box was dug open, and the dry food, dried meat, and wine inside were scattered everywhere. Except for those that were swallowed immediately, they were all scattered on the ground left and right, making a paste with dried blood. group.

Not only that, attracted by the dark power pervading the monastery, but also those animals in the wilderness that preyed on passers-by, such as bristle mice, huge beasts, big spiders, etc., all entrenched in the dark underground. in the corner.

The once tidy monastery is now full of such filth, the stench of corpses, and different types of monsters shuttle through it.

But no matter how messy it is, there is no one who blindly goes to the "blacksmith".

A few fallen demons with not enough IQ dirtyed its anvil a little, and it smashed its neck and threw it into the fire; catching two bristle mice for a meal, snatching the soul from the hands of the big demon is even more important. It's commonplace, but even the Queen of Pain is acquiescing to it.

In the entire barracks, only its territory is somewhat "regular".

In normal times, it has been squatting in front of the fire, swinging the hammer that is said to be created by the ancient human mages, to forge weapons, armor and accessories for the Queen of Pain's legion.

The power of magic gathers in the red flames of the forge, and on the hammer it swings down. With its exquisite and accurate forging technology, it is injected into ordinary steel, and then becomes a weapon with various magical effects. .

There is a rumor among the great demons that this "blacksmith" is not a creature born in hell like them... Like the most powerful forge under the Throne of Terror, the Hephast Armormaker, it is Also once a true angel, made a prisoner of Hell in the Eternal War.

Huge iron chains passed through the flesh and blood of these angels, conveying the magic power of hell and endless pain; when their wings of light dimmed and their bodies gradually twisted, they became the thick and ferocious appearance before them today, and they gave up their faith .

At that time, they become the power of hell...their knowledge and technology will be used by hell.

Most of the prisoners are powerful fighters. Of course, these angels were sent to the front line after their fall and became the most hated enemy on the side of heaven; Those who contribute to the Legion, such as blacksmiths, such as Haifast armor makers.

Today's blacksmiths stood by the furnace as always, silently swinging their hammers and smashing the sword embryos on the anvil... Another batch of demons came from hell, probably because of the great riot in Tristram a few days ago The reason is that the Queen of Pain felt that it was necessary to strengthen her power and completely wipe out all the humans in this wasteland.

But this time it couldn't concentrate on its work... It didn't take long before it heard the screams of the fallen demons coming from the courtyard outside the barracks.

The depraved Rogues in the barracks seemed to sense something, raised their weapons and rushed out.

But they never came back, and the bang bang bang bang bang outside gradually got closer and closer.

Suddenly, the gate of the barracks, which was far away from his furnace, was slammed open, and all kinds of demons nearby surrounded him with all kinds of weapons, but there were only a few who waited. It was a small tin can that was dark and seemed to contain something.

Before they could figure it out, the iron can suddenly burst open, with a strong light and a loud sound erupting in an instant, making these flesh and blood monsters cover their eyes and ears and scream.

This is the suggestion given by Deckard Kane after discussing with Boss Xue... Now that the Storm Pulse Rifle is used, other types of weapons and equipment will naturally have to keep up.In modern warfare, flash bombs are very common weapons, and they are especially effective against these demons.

Because no matter what kind of demons, they are all "dark creatures"... Although this darkness is conceptual and symbolic, it is mostly used to describe their cruel and evil nature, but the conceptual connections in some mystic fields are also Let the vast majority of them produce anorexia.

It's not that these guys will be weakened during the day, this kind of "disgust" is mostly psychological, they prefer to stay in the dark and don't want to go under the sun.

However, this kind of ecology and habits doomed them to their fate when they encountered flash bombs... Even the rough-skinned and thick-skinned big devil completely lost the ability to fight at this moment.

After a few flash bombs exploded, Paladin Jess was the first to rush in holding his shield.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the companions who followed took out new weapons, something called a "thermal energy ray gun", easily cleared away the monsters blocking the entrance of the barracks, and rushed towards the depths.

Although it does not belong to the same system as the Storm Pulse Rifle, this thing is surprisingly more useful against demons.The ray can cut through the air and reach the enemy's body faster than any bullet; the air around the trajectory, the dust in the air, are scorched by the scorching ray, and there is a trace of blue smoke, but that is all.

Those enemies who wear armor and can defend against a certain degree of physical blows will suffer more serious damage from the rays... Not only will the hits be burned or even penetrated, but the melted metal will also flow to other parts of the body, more serious Whole limbs will be charred.

Of course...they'd probably be dead before then.

The monster's body fell to the ground in a plop, and Cassia put down the ray gun that needed to be buffered and recharged, and picked up another bow.Even the ordinary longbow seemed to have become some kind of magical weapon in her hands. The tip of the shot arrow suddenly lit up, and flew along a straight trajectory to the depths of the barracks, illuminating the scene along the way.

Around this corridor, more monsters are emerging from the darkness.

They have sharp claws, some are tall, some are grotesque, and some can be seen at a glance that they were once human beings but are now transformed into black-skinned demons—that is the fallen Rogue.

At the end of the corridor is the forge of the "blacksmith".

At this moment, this guy was standing there holding the magic hammer, looking at the few people rushing in at the door, with a grin on his face.

"There are still humans who dare to break into this place... Your souls will definitely make the furnace of hell burn more vigorously!"

"Hoho, I'm so scared." The witch Issandra replied with a sneer. This guy doesn't think that the people here are just a group of adventurers who broke in by mistake, right?

Right outside the door, the Rogues have already occupied the entire front yard, the front courtyard wall, and the outer corridors of the monastery. The gunfire stopped not because they were retreating...but because the battle was over and there was no breathing monster left outside. .Jingzi is currently helping Kasha to regroup at the door, using the drone to scan the other rooms connected by the corridor, and it will probably be cleaned up in a while.

But she can't explain so much to a monster, even if the monster outside is still there, it is impossible to stop the footsteps of several people.I'm going to say hello to the Queen of Pain now, which onion are you?Want to use my soul as firewood?

She just waved her hand, and a group of continuously rotating ice balls flew out, and ice bullets were continuously fired from the place where it was frictionally joined with the air. The surrounding monsters were about to pounce on them, but they were hit by the ice bullets. When he showed a shocked expression, he was frozen in place.

"... How many spells do you know?" The knowledgeable necromancer beside him cast a surprised look. Compared with the blacksmith who was already mostly dead, this witch was more unpredictable.

"Countless." The witch raised her head and said, even the elders in the mage guild couldn't compare with her in this respect.

"Hurry up and get rid of the enemies. We have to go back to the camp to let Charsi strengthen our weapons. Time is short." The paladin Jess next to him also said the same. He didn't take the blacksmith and the monsters around him seriously.

In the front yard of the monastery just now, several people have fully tested the power of various new weapons, including not only flash bombs, heat ray guns, etc., but also other things that are more "supernatural"...

For example, "holy water" blessed by a genuine priest from a world where the same monsters are rampant.

After the magical power was lost in another world, Cassia the Amazon didn't think this thing would be useful in Sanctuary, but the result was completely different from what she imagined. This thing is not only useful, but also very useful.

At this time, as the paladin's voice fell, Dosten took out a bunch of bottles from his arms.

The potions that the team members and the Rogues in the camp usually drank, and the remaining bottles were filled with the so-called "holy water". There were forty or fifty bottles. At this moment, he raised his hand and threw it forward.

The barbarian took a deep breath, drew out the sword behind his back, and with a whirlwind slash, just shattered the holy water bottle in the air, and the liquid inside splashed out in all directions along with the direction of the blade's rotation.

The monsters around didn't take it seriously at first, they thought it was something similar to rainwater, at worst it was venom!

But soon they found out that something was wrong, a strong burning sensation suddenly rose from the place where the liquid splashed, and upon closer inspection, the skin on their bodies had already begun to crumble, burn, smoke, and even melt away. .

The paladin stepped on a green aura rippling like a pool of water... Because he didn't need to deal with some monsters with resurrection characteristics, the aura he summoned was actually "faith".

The glory of justice and firm determination constitute the coercion of this aura, and enemies within a range will become vulnerable due to the aura... Maybe this is why the effect of the holy water is so outstanding.

The team stepped over the collapsing monsters and killed the stunned blacksmith.

Chapter 54 The Queen of Pain

In the monastery, Kasha had already kicked open the door of another room.

Facing the monsters standing up inside, who were once her sisters, without any hesitation, she directly raised the red bow withering string.

As her arrows shot out, the Rogues who followed her also pulled the triggers one after another, and the bullets knocked down a large number of enemies in an instant like a gust of wind passing through the wheat field.The storm pulse rifle with a super long range is used to fight in this kind of confined space. It is like frying fish in a bucket. I don't know if they still retain their sanity. The souls lamented from their bodies and quickly disappeared into the air.

"Rest in peace, sister..."

Kasha said in his heart.

She didn't dare to show such a weak expression in front of the Rogues under her command. Since this was the only solution, the rest of the people had to deal with them, turn around and move on.

At the door of the room on the other side of the corridor, Kyoko was concentrating on operating the aircraft called "drones", piercing the windows and dropping Molotov cocktails into the dark corners.

Such a small target would generally not attract the attention of the monsters. Most of those guys were still looking up to find the source of the humming sound, the flames had already jumped up from the incendiary bottle smashed on the ground, engulfing everything inside in an instant .

The flames of the Molotov cocktails come and go quickly, and of course the rooms connected by the outer corridors will also be burned.But just like the fate of Morena or "Blood Crow", if the evil entrenched here can only be washed away with killing and flames, then so be it!

Just when Rogues finished cleaning the outer corridor, the five-member team also came out of the barracks.

"Kyoko!"

Cassia yelled, "Fly up with a drone to see if there are other passages."

After killing the blacksmith next to the forge and getting back the hammer, several people discovered that the passage from the barracks directly to the inside of the monastery had been blocked.Stones, building fragments, and human corpses were blocked on both sides of the door. It would take at least a day to clean up, not to mention that the demons inside the monastery would not let them finish their work peacefully.

On the side of the outer corridor, before they rushed into the barracks, they had already discovered that all the roads had been blocked, and swarms of flies were buzzing around the pile of corpses blocking the road.The Queen of Pain may not have blocked all the passages on purpose, so the actions of the demons here would also be restricted; the wanton and chaotic actions of the monsters were the number one reason for this result, because other places in the monastery were also piled up Human corpses, waste picked up by fallen demons, dead beasts and all kinds of things smashed by demons.

It's just that no matter what the reason is, the team members can't make it through now.

Fortunately, besides the drone, Kasha is also here.

Commander Rogge, who was asked something important, quickly put away his disappointment, carefully found a place, and drew a rough structure of the monastery with a branch.

"Bounded by the barracks, the nuns' dormitory and the prayer room, the monastery is roughly divided into two parts, the outer corridor and the inner corridor. The terrain on the inner side is actually a lot higher than the outer side. This monastery is based on Built on a mountain, the cathedral is located at the highest position, so believers can see the most magnificent building in the monastery at a glance even on the way to worship here... Originally, there were more than a hundred steps in the middle of the outer corridor It leads directly to the interior, but now it has been blocked. If you want to get in, you have to go through the prison."

...The Blind Sisters are indeed a religious organization, but they have military camps, have their own army, and can even have an impact on the political situation in Candulas, so they are no longer a pure church.

It is not surprising that there is a prison under such an organization's residence...

Prisoners were people who committed crimes in and around the monastery, especially the ones who refused to repent and never reformed.At that time, the demons that only appeared occasionally, could speak human words or occupied the human body would also be thrown into prison, and the Rogues would torture them and ask them about their plans.

The process of torture is of course quite bloody and touches the bottom line of human endurance, which is not what a church should do; but the demons that appear in the world basically want to cause big things, such as massacres, blood sacrifices, and wars are very common Yes, if they can't get them to confess quickly, the consequences could be very troublesome.

Now who will those instruments of torture be used on...Kaxia didn't even dare to think.

For the purpose of making it easier for the guards to come in and out, of course the prison has an exit in the barracks, as well as the inner corridor.

After listening to Kasha's introduction and frowning while looking at the map, the paladin finally said, "Since the inside and outside of the monastery have been temporarily isolated except for the prison, Ms. Kasha...you and your subordinates Rogge is defending here temporarily. Issandra, can a teleportation point be set up here?"

The witch nodded, imitating the strange boss in that strange tavern, and made an "OK" gesture.

In fact, as an important building in this area, there should have been space nodes on the outside of the monastery, and what she needs to do now is at most to reactivate it.

With the teleportation point set up, the supplies and reserve troops of Rogge camp can arrive quickly, and it is completely possible to set up a battle position on the spot, and try to clear the original road while the five-member team advances inward through the prison.

[136. No. 136]

Moreover, Dosten was holding the magic hammer he snatched back from the blacksmith in his hand, and bringing it back to Chasi immediately should allow her to inject magic power into the weapons and equipment of several people.

After Deckard Kane explained the Queen of Pain's ability, Paladin Jess thought that instead of strengthening the weapon in such a short period of time, it is better to strengthen the armor brought from another world...to make it resistant to a certain extent Venom's abilities.

Fortunately, these armors from different worlds are very thin, even adding another layer under the normal armor of several people will not add much weight and affect their actions.

Kasha directed the Rogues to build bunkers and set up positions around the teleportation point.

But for some reason, no demons appeared in the barracks or in the underground prison, and Andariel seemed completely unaware of what happened in the outer corridor.

It wasn't until night fell that the evil atmosphere under the cathedral gradually woke up.

In the catacombs built for the nuns and the important people of Candulas, the huge body of Andariel, Queen of Pain, stood up from the coffin, shaking off the blood stained with the spiked spider feet all around.

Most of the nuns and Rogue in the monastery have fallen, but there are still some people who have persisted until now and have not given up their beliefs and beliefs... Those people are Andariel's favorite food. The pain they produced when they were tortured, To the Demon King, it is like the aroma of fine wine.

Drunk on the blood and tormented souls of the tortured, Andariel took a moment to open his eyes again.

It has been a long time since the dark wanderer went to the east, but he still hasn't felt the changes in the world.What on earth did those Horadrim mages do? Could it be that they really had the ability to seal Baal in a mortal body and escape Diablo's eyes and ears?

If it was her at a certain stage in the past, she would probably be unable to suppress her ambition now, and go to Bilie and the others to do something...

But not now.

Diablo didn't know where he saw the trajectory of fate. Before leaving here, he had solemnly explained many things to Andariel, who was also ranked among the Seven Great Demon Kings.

So, she decided to obey his orders anyway, at least until the Eternal War was won as he said it would be.According to the agreement, Tristram is now hers, and all the souls here are hers.

It's just that after staying in the monastery for a long time, gradually, even the blood of the nuns can no longer satisfy her endless desires.
