Chapter 261 Elzam’s survival strategy

the next day.

Lich Elzam Malcolm came out of the mage tower where he had just built a base and looked at the dense airships in the sky and the floating city in the center of the airship array.

"They came so fast this time." Elzam muttered. "Last time I assembled such a large army, the Crusaders waited for almost a year before they came. The power of mankind is indeed getting stronger and stronger. .”

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and all the standing stone statues around him came to life, flapping their wings and flying into the sky.

There are also a large number of small flying undead creatures mixed in the gargoyles - they are all resurrected bird corpses. Compared with the gargoyles, they are extremely weak, but they are better than the huge number.

The undead creatures that covered the sky rushed towards the group of airships in the sky.

The large airship at the front bore the brunt and was surrounded by flying undead creatures in the blink of an eye.The next moment, holy light enveloped the airship.

Weak birds and undead creatures were purified in the blink of an eye, and the appearance of the gargoyles instantly ignited with blue-white flames.

A gargoyle rushed into the cabin of the airship carrying the flames, but was knocked out the next second, and its head was smashed.

It should be the work of the priest on the airship.

Other airships fired dense rain of arrows, and the corpses of undead creatures continued to fall like goose feathers in heavy snow.

Elzam was stunned: "These airships... are more troublesome than imagined."

After all, this was something he hadn't dealt with the last time he gathered an army.In fact, his flying troops were purely prepared to fight against the floating city.

New orders were given, and the undead creatures in the sky began to hit the airship with their bodies to test the airship's weaknesses.

Soon the height of an airship with a deflated hull slowly decreased.

Erzam looked at the airship and said to himself: "Why did that airship lower its altitude? Did I destroy the flying magic on it?"

Until now, Elzam thought that these airships relied on the flying technique that was constantly on them to fly.

Just when Elzam was about to continue commanding the flying troops to "test" the airship, the huge floating city came to his head at a slow but unstoppable pace.

The next moment the earth trembled, and it turned out that the bottom of the floating city hit the ground.

Most of Qianshui City is on soft mud next to the shallows, and only a small part of the city is located on solid rock formations.The stone houses of the nobles were built in these rock formations, and Elzam's mage tower was located here.

The solid granite bottom of the floating city collided with the rock floor paved with stone bricks. Even a slight touch caused the earth to shake.

As soon as Elzam stood firm, he looked up and saw the paladin and priest jumping down like rain.

"Hmph," it sneered and teleported away with a gesture.

The death knight who had been following him drew his sword with both hands, and the red light in his eye sockets was like burning flames.

Wang was standing on the edge of the floating island at this time.

Ms. Teresa was not far away, calling out the unit number like counting.The team whose number was called tore up the Feather Falling Technique scroll, and then jumped down resolutely.

Elizabeth sighed at the king's side: "These people are so brave, there are thousands of undead creatures below."

Flint: "They are Lancelot's paladins and priests. They are like the natural enemies of the undead. Of course, it is admirable to regard death as home. As for those adventurers, they drank free drinks at my place yesterday until they fell into pieces. , I filled a full pot before leaving today."

The fact that the Caerin Temple provides free high-quality spirits has long been spread among the Crusaders, and some Lancelot priests will secretly pay "locals" to drink.The paladins could only stare at him. Lancelot's paladins could not drink. Drinking would break the precept.

Many paladins become paladins after being "inspired" along the way. Many people drink wine before becoming paladins and know the beauty of wine.

So this became Lancelot's trial for the paladins.

Wang: "So with so many free drinks, has Kailin's followers increased?"

The dwarf shrugged: "Probably, after all, I can't tell whether people are here to pray or to drink. Most of them will start talking when they are drunk, and most of them will cry and regret. I can't tell whether they are repenting or repenting. Simply drunk."

Wang: “Maybe both?”

Rosalie teased: "Another point is that everyone who leaves the Kailin Temple feels a lot more relaxed. It has the same effect as going to Lancelot's Temple to worship and listen to sermons."

Marika followed: "That's not true. Everyone who leaves the Kailin Temple is as happy as a god. It's just that they can't walk in a straight line."

Nini: "I tried drinking, but I didn't feel happy. I just felt dizzy and wanted to sleep. The sleep aid effect is really good."

The dwarf laughed loudly: "So you guys with long ears can't understand the beauty of wine! You can only drink fruit wine that looks like fruit juice!"

Nini frowned: "It's good that I can drink our fruit wine, but..."

Just as he was talking, a gargoyle fell in front of everyone, with two crossbow arrows stuck in its body. The crossbow arrows shattered the stone shell of the gargoyle, and the jagged arrowheads did not penetrate the gargoyle's body.

But this guy can still move, so he just gets up and attacks.

Flint pulled out the five-headed flail and shouted to Gotrick: "Don't touch my feet! I'll deal with it!"

I originally wanted to use the dwarves as weapons to attack the barbarians, but I gave up the idea.

The dwarf waved the five-headed flail, rushed forward, and one of them smashed the gargoyle's body into pieces.The moment it lost its "life", the gargoyle collapsed and turned into a pile of sand on the ground.

Rosalie poked her head out from behind the king: "Is it over? You guys are just chatting here as usual. I almost forgot that we are in a war now."

Wang: "We have mobilized so much force. If Erzam is still killed by us, it would be shameful. I guess nothing will happen to us until the battle is over."

Marika: "I don't know how the ground is going, but I saw at least two Nine Ring Priests."

Wang: "Elzam is not good at fighting. All the masters of the religious order were beaten to their skulls in one fell swoop. Two nine-ring priests are enough to send him away."

At this moment, a messenger came and saluted the king: "Your Excellency, City Lord, Your Majesty the Cardinal, please go to the big tent."

Wang frowned slightly: "Is this still our business?"

Messenger: "Aren't you going to go?"

Wang: "I'll go right away. I just expressed my inner doubts."

**
As soon as the king entered the tent, he saw Cardinal Pietro frowning and asked, "What happened?"

After asking, I felt it was inappropriate and added: "Your Excellency?"

Pietro: "The lich Elzam Malcolm disappeared, so I asked the Lord of the City to come and ask where it would go. After all, the Lord of the City is very familiar with it, isn't it?"
