Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 470: Ancient Calamity 2
"Stand up straight, and show the archbishop the spirit of a Nomudan warrior!" The officer at the front yelled loudly as he walked past the crowd.

All the soldiers—in fact, not just soldiers, uninjured young and middle-aged men were pulled out—were lined up in a long line, standing in this wilderness, almost like a military parade.

The musketeers were of course also in the queue.Their positions were at the back, and Zhang Chengcheng stood beside Captain Alexei.

At the end of the field of vision, a man in a golden red robe could be seen coming along with a few followers.Whenever he saw someone, he would ask that person to come out and join the team he followed.

This should be the legendary archbishop—to be honest, this outfit reminds me of the European aristocrats in the Middle Ages on Earth, typical of flamboyant and ostentatious.

It was easy to see that the archbishop had chosen only those who seemed the strongest and most burly.

He didn't walk fast, and from time to time one of his followers would come up and do things like pat the soldier on the back, tap his helmet, or kick his leg.This is to check the physical fitness of soldiers.This group of people came slowly along the road.

"Don't worry, Zhang Cheng," Captain Alexei whispered to Zhang Cheng beside him. "They shouldn't choose you."

Zhang Cheng's appearance was really inconspicuous in the crowd, he was young, and his body was not considered tall, and he could even be said to be a bit thin.

"Is the chosen person going to deal with Kangnibal, the binge eater?" Zhang Cheng asked quietly.

"There is hardly any doubt," Captain Alexei replied. "It's like going to death. Those battles are not for ordinary people like us to participate in. At least you have to be a hero. Don't hold your head high, bow your head a little, but don't be too low."

"What's above the hero rank?" Zhang Cheng asked suddenly.

"Beyond heroes, of course, are legends. Above legends, there are holy ranks. If they go higher, they may be demigods who condense divinity...you...why don't you even know this?"

"Hey, I've heard of it, but I've been in a daze." Zhang Cheng said.At the beginning, he didn't dare to ask anything, but now that he has been with them for a long time, especially when he clearly feels the kindness of these people, he can ask some questions now, at most he just pretends to be an ignorant person.

Anyway, there is no compulsory education in this kind of society. It is normal for a person to be ignorant, but knowledgeable people are rare.

"What the hell is Cornibal the Mad Eater?" Zhang Cheng asked again.

"You better know nothing. But if you have to ask, all I can say is that that sort of thing is generally called an 'ancient woe.'"

"Are there many ancient disasters?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"There are quite a few," Alexei replied. "I heard that one of the important missions of the church is to hunt down ancient disasters."

Zhang Cheng understood that this ancient calamity was probably something like a sin or a void creature.Or simply another name for abomination or void creature?Probably not, because judging from the current situation, these guys are not very powerful.

In the world of Dog Rong, when dealing with gods or void creatures, it is the gods and great spirits who take action, and at the very least they have to be at the human level to be used as combat power.Normal people have no value at all in these kinds of fights.

Corresponding to the evaluation criteria of this world... Apart from gods, one should have a holy rank or a demigod to be suitable for dealing with gods, right?

Just as he was thinking about this question, he saw that the archbishop and his party had already arrived in front of them.

From a close distance, the archbishop is not very old, a middle-aged man in his thirties and 40s, his eyes are firm, but his eyes are slightly dark circles due to staying up late, but his expression still looks energetic.They came before the musketeers.The archbishop was followed by five or six followers of various colors.One of them was wearing a long, floor-sweeping cloak, hiding his features in the shadow of a hood.

The archbishop's eyes fell on Alexei who was beside Zhang Cheng.

The musketeers all looked old, weak, sick, and crooked—after all, in this world, muskets have not been on the stage of history for a long time, and their ease of use and power have been partially affirmed, but they are only That's all.In the army, usually only the poorest soldiers are selected as musketeers.This is actually true. Compared with other weapons, musketeers do not pick soldiers.

Among such a team of musketeers, Alexei was the most eye-catching.Although he was a little older, he looked strong and healthy. In addition, his actions and demeanor also showed that he had rich combat experience.

This is already the last part of the queue, perhaps because of this reason, the archbishop stayed a little longer.

The mysterious attendant in the cloak suddenly raised his head.She took off the hood with her hands, shook her head, brushed off her hair and tidied it up.Others around whispered a few times, even Zhang Cheng was slightly surprised.

This is none other than the female elf I saw last night.

The female elf's eyes were down, with a hint of non-human fireworks, and her fair and delicate face was as cold as a stern goddess. The distance was so close that Zhang Cheng even smelled a faint fragrance.

She showed a rare smile at Zhang Cheng.It's not a polite but icy professional smile, it's much more complicated.

Zhang Cheng looked down at Xiao Huihui at his feet.Xiao Huihui noticed the master's gaze, raised her head, looked at Zhang Cheng with innocent eyes, and made a slight "wow" sound from her throat, as if expressing doubts.

The archbishop walked past the team, and the matter seemed to be over without any wind or waves.But the problem is that one of the archbishop's followers suddenly looked back at Zhang Cheng and Alexei. "You two." He pointed at the two of them.

Alexei looked at Zhang Cheng beside him, walked out of the line without a word, and followed behind the team.Zhang Cheng had no choice but to follow behind.

The refugees moved on, but the chosen ones stayed.

Now, there are fifty or sixty people here.

Zhang Cheng quietly took out the card and blessed himself with an arcane vision.

This magic can also work in this world, but what he sees in his eyes is not the magical aura he is familiar with in the dog world.The magical aura here is much more mottled and mixed, and quite strange.These people are clearly divided into two groups, the real fighters and the cannon fodder to divert their prey.The body of the cannon fodder is clean without any magical aura, while the real combatants, including the female elf, have more or less magical auras on their bodies.But this actually doesn't mean much, anyway, Zhang Cheng can't see what magic is on them.It seems that there are many magics, but there seems to be only one, and it is impossible to judge
Zhang Cheng is now assigned to the cannon fodder team.

The archbishop made a simple mobilization in front of the cannon fodder group. Unfortunately, these morale-boosting mobilization words had no meaning at all to the planeswalker, so Zhang Cheng had time to chat with Alexei beside him.

"Captain, who is that?"

"That? You mean that boy? He is the son of the baron, named Kim, and a summoner." Alexey did not hide it.Don't think this question is stupid, but after all, Zhang Cheng doesn't live in a castle, so it's normal not to know people.

Oh, that's him?Zhang Cheng knew that it was Kim who summoned Ao Guang... although it was a coincidence.

Next to Kim was Alicia, his sister, and the middle-aged man with the two of them... should be the baron.This family of three is relatively close.In addition to some of the baron's personal guards, there are two people who are obviously magicians.

A total of fifteen or six is ​​the baron's high-end combat power.

The archbishop's staff is much smaller, except for the female elf, there are four other people.Two are dressed as knights, and the other two are apparently also priests.While Zhang Cheng was looking at it, Alicia was having a heated discussion with the archbishop.It seemed that she wanted something, and the people on the church side were unwilling.The two sides stalemate for a while.

"What are they talking about?"

"Miss Alicia hopes to give the baron a lay on treatment from the archbishop." Alexey could see it. "He was injured in the fight with the Spider-Man earlier."

"Is the baron also a hero?"

"Yes. However, everyone said that the baron may not have the chance to reach the legendary rank." Alexei shook his head.

"This holy treatment... should be able to heal the Baron's injury..." Zhang Cheng asked.The term made him feel a little new. "But isn't it their duty?"

If there is a healing ability, it must be used to heal the wounded, and restore the life value to the highest level before the battle begins-whether it is in reality or in the game, this is the setting.This is also an unquestionable strategy.

"Lay on Hands is a miraculous ability, but everyone only has one chance per day." Alexey said. "The archbishop is no exception. So they want to keep the lay on hands ability just in case..."

What, it turns out that the clergy in this world only have one chance to heal others every day?Zhang Cheng understood.What is the rationale behind this?Is it because the power of the gods is limited?Or is it because of the rules of the world itself?Or... He raised his eyes and looked at the mottled and chaotic magical aura on those people.The reason for the magic tide instead of the magic net?
But even if it can only be once a day...why do I think it doesn't take the Baron's side as an ally at all?

These low-level soldiers are really cannon fodder, and it is normal to be reluctant to give them lay on hands.But the baron is not cannon fodder here.

But the dispute came to an end, and at last a priest went to heal the Baron.Zhang Cheng noticed that the magical aura flickered during the casting process.Don't look at the mottled magic aura, but some things can still be seen.

For example, the baron's injury has not really healed.

This healing ability is probably between Zhang Cheng's "treating serious injuries" and "treating moderate injuries".It can be seen that this is not the priest's deliberate intention - because it is meaningless - but that this lay on hand is just like that.

Zhang Cheng looked at the crowd again.He began to feel a little strange, why do these people have a stable magic aura?
Based on Zhang Cheng's habit that he learned in the Dog Rong world, he will give his companions various buffs and protection spells before the battle begins.Because the duration of all magic is limited.

If the baron's family of three carried some magical equipment, it would make sense.But it would be unreasonable to say that each of the following personal guards has magic equipment.

It's really weird.Could it be that "Arcane Vision" is not acclimatized in this world?

However, for the time being, it seems impossible to find out what happened.All I can say is to put this question in the bottom of my heart first.

In order to cope with future battles, Zhang Cheng has already made preparations.All the cards are in place.Whether it is spells or weapons, they can be used at any time.In addition, his current strongest cards, Little Bear and Yanbi, have all been summoned.

Yan Bi has the ability to sneak in the shadows. I didn't realize it before, but now I find that this trick is surprisingly easy to use, because Yan Bi can lurk in Zhang Cheng's shadow.

As for the bear, the musketeer carried cumbersome ammunition pouches in which the bear could have shrunk to hide.Because of the little bear, Xiao Huihui subconsciously didn't dare to get too close.

These are Zhang Cheng's two strongest cards so far.Zhang Cheng believed that with the protection of the two of them, even if he was in danger in this situation, the danger was small enough to be ignored.

The following is to patiently look at the high-end combat power in this world, that is, what kind of abilities does Connibal have.

At the end of the field of vision, a cloud of smoke suddenly appeared, and a trembling roar came from the depths of the distant forest.

Something is coming.

In the depths of the dark forest, a beast with a strange appearance is galloping through the barriers of trees and trees.He roared loudly.

In front of it, there is an elf running at full speed - his clothes are very similar to the elf a little far away from Zhang Cheng.

The elf's movements were extremely flexible, and his speed was as fast as a gust of wind.Although the beast is also fast, it is too big and is hindered by the surrounding trees, so it can't catch up with the elf.

"Here we come!" No need to ask, everyone already knew that the one who came was the so-called Blizzard Connibal.

In arcane vision, it can be seen that the creature is wrapped in a strong magical aura.And this aura is different from others, it is more like the scene seen in the dog Rong world.Purer and stronger.

Hey, didn't you say that this crazy eater Connibal woke up from his deep sleep, and was driven by his appetite to attack this fragile human refugee team?But the current scene... Zhang Cheng felt that it seemed that the elves deliberately attracted this creature here!
But at this time, there was no time to think too much, because Cornibal, the binge eater, had already rushed out of the forest.Don't think it can't catch up in the forest, but once there are no trees in the way, its speed is obviously faster than the elf in front.
