The appearance of the Dragon Eagle Knight was an omen, indicating that the crusade was not far away from them.

After Safuri gave the order, a deacon raised his staff and fired a signal magic into the sky. A red raven shadow bloomed in the sky above Odo Village like fireworks.

The red light and shadow illuminated Odo Village, and even though it was not dark at this time, it was still very eye-catching.

In an instant, the totem poles in the eight directions of Odo Village began to emit black light, soaring into the sky, forming a gray dome light curtain hundreds of meters above Odo Village, covering the entire Odo Village.

Zong Shen had seen these totem poles when he sneaked into Odo Village. At that time, he only glanced at them from a distance and thought that these totem poles were just decorations. In fact, this was also one of the means deployed by the Calamity Raven Church. .

The black-gray light curtain called the Raven Dome supported by these totem poles is actually a kind of protective magic. It has a similar effect to the [Mobile Magical Energy Array] that Zong Shen obtained on the island in the middle of the lake. It can form a light shield that can withstand damage.

However, there are still some differences between the two in the intensity of the photomask.

The intensity of the light curtain formed by these totem poles is obviously much higher than that of the magic energy array.

A rune magic circle was placed under each totem pole. Not only did it contain a large number of magic crystals, but also many raven bones. Obviously this was another mysterious method of the Calamity Raven Church.

After the Raven Dome is formed, the Dragon Eagle Knights will no longer be able to peek into anything from the air.

The captain of the Dragon Eagle Knight named Denise frowned as she looked at the Odo Village covered by the raven dome below. She quickly controlled the Dragon Eagle Beast to rise to an altitude of three or four thousand meters, and then stopped. .

The remaining eleven dragon eagle warriors in the team also came to her side. The dragon eagle beast flapped its wings and maintained a suspended posture.

"These cunning heretics discovered us almost immediately."

"Those restless flocks of ravens are probably attracted by the famous Raven Tower."

"Lord Quinnir is right, these guys are obviously well prepared."

"Yom, you immediately return along the way you came from and report this situation to Master Quinnier in advance."

"He should make his own judgment on this. He must not charge blindly this time, otherwise he may suffer a loss."

Denise, the female captain of the Dragon Eagle Knights, analyzed very calmly and named a Dragon Eagle Knight and asked him to report the news to Quinnir.

After the dragon eagle knight accepted the order, he controlled the dragon eagle beast on his crotch to leave the queue and fly towards the east.

At the same place, Denise also flew towards the east of Odo Village with the remaining Dragon Eagle Knights, preparing to temporarily station about a hundred kilometers away from Odo Village, waiting for the arrival of the large army.

Below, Raven Saint Safuri suddenly smiled, her eyes shining with wisdom.

"Everything is pretty much as expected."

"That idiot from the Avalon royal family actually rejected the Archbishop's conditions."

"Those who reject the Raven God will only be greeted by decline and destruction."

"It's time to teach them a lesson."

"As long as the Raven Spirit is successfully summoned, the strength of the church will be greatly improved."

Raven Saint Safori said leisurely that the church had actually planned this action.

The reason why we chose to start here is that we have done a lot of preparation work and intelligence work. At the same time, this is also related to the attitude of the upper echelons of the Kingdom of Avalon.

In this continent, especially among the human race, there are many churches. The strength of these churches varies. Some have been inherited for tens of thousands of years, and some have only emerged in the last few thousand years. Some churches are strong and some have declined. Each has its own power and scope of development.

If a church wants to maintain a strong inheritance, the most important thing is that it needs a large amount of faith and support from believers. If it can get the support of the kingdom's forces, it will be like taking a shortcut.

However, few kingdoms would agree to allow church forces to settle in and let the divine power influence the royal power. Those who are clear in their minds would not agree, especially those members of the royal family and aristocratic groups with vested interests, would not agree to such a thing.

That’s why most churches are called heretics. The Disaster Raven Church is not weak in strength. It has two giant city-level strongholds, one is Jackdaw Valley and the other is Disaster Island. Its overall strength belongs to the second-rate church. It can't compete with the kingdom head-on, but if it uses all its strength, it is fully capable of taking down a huge city.

Previously, the archbishop of the Calamity Raven Church had approached a powerful prince in the Avalon royal family, hoping to use the Calamity Raven Church's support for him in exchange for his acquiescence in the church's development of believers in the kingdom and the spread of the faith. .

However, it ultimately failed due to the competing interests of many parties within the kingdom, so the Calamity Raven Church placed this action to summon the spirit of the raven here.

Firstly, it is because there is a burial ground here, and the ancient souls of great demons in the burial ground just meet the requirements.

The second reason is to give the Kingdom of Avalon a show of strength. This operation has been planned and prepared for several months in advance. They are not planning to fight a protracted war here. They are just planning to summon the Raven Spirit and then eliminate Rentat. The crusade in Siju City disgusted the kingdom's senior officials and let them know that the Church of Calamity Raven was not a cattle and sheep to be slaughtered, but a ferocious lion.

This is a grudge between the two sides. However, the size of the Calamity Raven Church cannot be compared with that of the Kingdom. A battle of this level can only be regarded as a small friction at best. What is truly tragic is the Kingdom's all-out war. Large areas of cities and villages are destroyed. Will turn into scorched earth.

The nobles of both sides would lead troops to invade the other's kingdom territory, either dispersed or combined, and carry out bloody massacres and population plundering of some cities and villages encountered along the way.

They will even gather a large number of troops to attack the opponent's giant city. Various powerful siege equipment and magic energy equipment will be used one after another. It will definitely be a bloody and tragic situation.

However, there has been no all-out war between kingdoms in the entire continent and for hundreds of years. During these hundreds of years, all the kingdoms and forces in the entire continent have been cultivating their health and recuperating. The kingdoms have accumulated a large amount of wealth through continuous development. The wealth is scattered among the major states and cities, and most of it belongs to the private property of the nobles.

In addition, due to the peaceful environment of the kingdom, a large number of new nobles have risen. In short, after hundreds of years of peaceful development, the indigenous people of the mainland kingdom have become much richer.

From some aspects, this accumulated wealth seems to have a deeper meaning, especially now that the lords have arrived, and the development trajectory of the aborigines seems to echo the arrival of the lords.

However, even this small friction is no less than an earth-shattering battle to the current lords. There are hundreds of warriors on both sides, and they are all existences that the current lords need to look up to.

After Raven Saint Safuri gave some instructions, she left Odo Village and rushed towards the Bone Burial Ground.

The circling ravens in the sky divided into thousands and gathered above her head, forming a "dark cloud" that covered the clouds back and forth over Odo Village.

Raven Saint Safuri put on a hood, and her figure began to fade. In the end, only blurred light and shadow could be seen. Her hood actually had a sneaking effect.

As for the magic array deployed in the Bone Burial Ground, it also has a covering effect, ensuring that no clues can be found from the sky.

In Zong Shen's territory, after searching in the [Market].

After the second and third wolf cavalry teams completed digging the trench, they were asked to take those dirty coats to the stream and wash them thoroughly after fetching water.

The outer defenses of the territory were quickly completed. The kobolds and warriors who had no special missions returned to the territory. After a simple dinner, they entered the houses to rest.

Zong Shen put the [Mobile Magical Energy Array (Broken)] that had been placed in the lord's courtyard into the storage compartment. This thing can produce a circular magic energy shield with a radius of 200 meters and needs to be used. The magic crystal charges it.

The more magic energy is charged, the higher the solidity value will be. However, after each use, the durability of this magic energy circle will be reduced a lot. I have not had much chance to use it these days, but it may come in handy tomorrow. .

All the other defense towers have been installed. The [Thunder Tower] is all light blue, with a striking yellow thunder rune on the top and a huge blue orb the size of a millstone. Just above the orb there are a series of The arc is flashing continuously.

[Moon Blade Tower] is dark purple in color, with a launch port at the top. A giant three-edged moon blade with a diameter of one meter is gathering momentum in the launch port.

The appearance of the [Giant Crossbow Tower] is as simple and crude as a spaceship. The upper part of the tower-shaped base is a giant conjoined crossbow machine. The crossbow machine can rotate 360 ​​degrees on a flat surface, and it also has a maximum of four The elevation angle is five degrees, but the depression angle is relatively low. If the enemy is close to a certain distance below the [Giant Crossbow Tower], it will be unable to attack the opponent.

At the same time, there is something like a long-tube periscope on the crossbow.

Zong Shen came to the [Giant Crossbow Tower] and chose to enter [Sniper Mode]. His perspective suddenly changed. Now his perspective is the perspective of the crossbow machine on the top of the tower.

And as his perspective turned, the crossbow machine on the top of the giant crossbow tower also began to rotate. With a thought in his mind, he looked into the distance, and his perspective could continue to zoom in, and he could see the situation four kilometers away relatively clearly.

This thing can not only be used as a defense tower with an ultra-long range, but can also be used as a telescope.

The [Sniper Mode] of the [Giant Crossbow Tower], combined with the [Gunner Mode] of the [Giant Gun Tower], can form a comprehensive insight into the surrounding areas of the territory.

[Giant Crossbow Tower] has a range of 4,000 meters, and [Giant Gun Tower] has a range of 3,500 meters. It seems that these two defensive towers are really suitable for use together.

After bombarding with the magic cannon, use the giant crossbow to strike accurately.

Zong Shen had more ideas in his mind about the matching of defensive buildings.

He exited [Sniper Mode] and came to the side of [Holy Light Tower] again.

[Holy Light Tower] is shaped like an upright light bulb, and ripples of holy light will ripple out every once in a while.

Those crypt demons seemed to hate this, and were cautious even when passing around the Holy Light Tower.

Other than that, Zong Shen didn't feel much. When the holy light rippled on his body, it was almost like ordinary sunlight, with only a slight warmth.

For ordinary creatures, these holy lights can have a healing effect and restore their health.

But for those undead souls, that is proper damage.

Finally, the [Dead Soul Tower] is left. The entire [Dead Soul Tower] is black and gray. It is shaped like a crater with a depression in the middle. In the depression, there is a huge prismatic gem, looming. It seems disembodied.

Lines of undead death energy are emerging from it. If there are no enemies nearby, the effect of the undead tower will not be activated, so Zong Shen cannot yet see how good it is at summoning skeletons.

Zong Shen walked around these defense towers to become more familiar with their characteristics.

As time goes by, it is now evening, the sky is extremely dark, and those clouds show no sign of dissipating. As night falls, the earth becomes dark, and neither the moonlight nor the starlight can penetrate the clouds and shine. Come down.

Zong Shen has not gone to rest for a long time. He is waiting for Mariel to return. At this time, more than three hours have passed since Mariel set off, so it stands to reason that she should be back.

Mariel shouldered the mission of purchasing supplies this time, which was related to the opportunity for the next challenge, which made Zong Shen feel a little worried. Only when the supplies were gathered in the territory as soon as possible could he feel at ease.

Just when Zong Shen was feeling worried, from the east gate of the territory, Colby led a team of Wolf Cavalry to clear the way ahead, followed by two fully loaded loader mechas.

Mariel and the others are finally back!

Everyone gathered at the entrance of the small courtyard, and two loader mechas also stopped in the open space.

The cargo hold at the back was piled high. The two loader mechas only carried part of the supplies, and some of them were placed in the storage compartment by Mariel.

The cargo hold of one of the loader mechas is filled with various leather jackets, hundreds of them, as well as a large box of wool sweaters and hundreds of wool blankets. In addition, Mariel also After acquiring the sheepskins, there happens to be a tailor named Alanna in the territory. She can sew these sheepskins into sheepskin jackets.

These alone occupy the entire cargo hold of a heavy-duty mecha.

As for the other loader mecha, it was full of all kinds of food.

These included eight large barrels of hard bread, one large barrel of sausages and dried meat, as well as four or five baskets of apples, two baskets of blueberries, and four or five baskets of eggs.
