Chapter 297 The Bad Omen
Wang: "We have more time to prepare. On the one hand, we must find a way to crush the conspiracy of the slanderers and destroy all the beacons. On the other hand, we must complete the floating island as soon as possible and prepare for the worst."

Franka intervened: "Wait a minute, you have a floating island? Isn't that a masterpiece of the Cyclops Empire that perished long ago? Have you mastered a lost technology?"

Wang: "No, we found a newly built floating island of the Cyclops Empire. The empire was destroyed before it could take off. Then in the long river of time, it was only regarded as an ordinary relic. It was only recently discovered by us. start up."

Elizabeth corrected her seriously: "You activated it."

Wang curled his lips: "Yes, it was activated by me. In short, our next goal is to grab it with both hands, both hands must be strong, burning the beacon while preparing for the worst."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone felt the ground tremble.

Elizabeth looked up at the ceiling and stared at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling: "The chandelier was shaking. It wasn't my imagination just now. The whole room was indeed shaking."

Nini said: "But now that the shaking has stopped, what happened, teacher?"

Flint: "It's probably because the blazing glue we left in the training room exploded. Kailin's horns, these things are really powerful."

Wang Interface said: "The instant explosion after full mixing is like this. While the enemy is attracted there, quickly continue to search the study, more information, or the secret treasure collected by the Lord, everything can be found quickly, Then we withdraw."

Elizabeth's eyes widened in surprise: "Withdraw? Aren't we going to fight this mind flayer?"

Wang: "Fight, otherwise he will soon accumulate enough strength through indiscriminate slaughter to restore this 'beacon'. But we have to find a way to sneak attack, so we have to retreat first, leaving clues for this heart-stealing The demon is tracking us, and once he leaves this castle, we will be more likely to attack it by surprise."

Xiaobai: "Can the Mind Flayer be attacked by surprise? Can't he feel us?"

Marika and Flint, both underground creatures, spoke at the same time:
"do not worry……"

"Relax!"

They both stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and then the dwarf made a "please" gesture: "I live mostly on the ground, and I only know a little bit about the underground situation as a matter of knowledge."

Marika nodded and continued what she just said: "The mind flayer alone does not have that strong vigilance ability, so it can be attacked by sneak attacks. However, fighting the mind flayer is very dangerous, because it will always confuse all participants, and someone may be killed at any time. Turn back and become someone on the Mind Flayer’s side.”

Xiaobai: "Bewitched at the same time?"

"Yes," Marika nodded, "and there is no casting action. Of course, the effect of this kind of bewitchment is not as immediate as the charm control spell. The mind flayer will slowly but surely gain your trust. So when fighting the mind flayer You must not talk to him and treat everything he says as fart."

Xiaobai: "What if I can't do this? What will happen?"

Marika: "You will begin to feel that the mind flayer is right. You will gradually sympathize with it, identify with it, and even love it, until you end up turning against your former teammates."

Xiaobai shrank his neck: "It's really scary."

Wang: "Okay, search the room quickly, leave clues and escape."

Almost at the same time, Qianshui City was rebuilt.

Cardinal Pietro is now the de facto controller of Shallow Water City and has to deal with a large number of government affairs every day.

That morning, several low-level priests asked to see Pietro worriedly, saying that they had extremely unusual situations to report.

Pietro thought about it and decided to take some time to meet these priests.So these priests were led into Pietro's office by a paladin.

Pietro: "Tell me, what did you find? Keep it short."

Several priests looked at each other, and it seemed like the leader took a step forward: "Your Excellency, please allow us to use the scroll to summon a first-level undead creature."

Pietro frowned slightly, but still nodded and agreed to the request.

The leader of the low-level priests quickly took out the scroll and died, and a skeleton soldier appeared out of thin air.

This is a conjuration spell to summon undead creatures, so the skeletons appear out of thin air and do not consume corpses.

Pietro waited for these low-level priests to continue their performance, but unexpectedly the leader said: "Please wait patiently for 5 minutes before observing this skeleton soldier."

Pietro frowned even more tightly: "I'm very busy. There are countless things waiting for me to deal with in the entire Qianshui City!"

The leader was reluctant: "Believe us, this is very important! It has something to do with the rescue team and their mission!"

Pietro pursed his lips and looked at the skeleton soldier patiently.

At this time, he, who was experienced, noticed something unusual: "Wait a minute, did any of you release the Dispel Undead on this skeleton soldier?"

Several low-level priests shook their heads. Pietro looked at the high-level priests and paladins who were already in the executive room, and they all shook their heads too.

Pietro: "What's going on? This skeleton soldier has obviously been illuminated by the Holy Light. Although it has not been destroyed, I can see it!"

The leader of the low-level priests said respectfully: "This is what we want to report to you. The undead creatures continue to be attacked by positive energy from unknown sources. Although this kind of attack cannot even destroy the weakest skeleton soldiers, The activity of skeleton soldiers has been greatly reduced."

Pietro stepped forward and examined the skeleton carefully.

"There is fine powder on his bones." Pietro rubbed the skeleton soldier's ribs with his hand. "This is an inevitable phenomenon for skeletons that have been illuminated by the Holy Spirit. But the amount of powder is very small, indicating that the Holy Spirit The light shines only briefly. But no one in this room summons the Light."

Low-level priest leader: "That's right, sir. This skeleton was summoned by me tearing up the scroll on the spot, so there is no possibility of shining the holy light on you in advance to deceive you."

Pietro touched his chin and murmured to himself: "I remember that among the stages of world annihilation mentioned by the Salvation Team, there was one stage where high-level undead creatures began to stand up to help the living fight against the crisis. Could it be... that it was because of the undead? Is the survival of living things also threatened?”

Although the combination of "undead" and "survival" is very strange, no one pointed it out at this time.

Everyone looked solemn.

Pietro: "We need to inform the rescue team of this news. Where are they now?"

A judge from the tribunal immediately replied: "According to the information witnessed by merchant ships, they were still heading towards the border between the Grand Duchy and Yi Songzuo a few days ago."

Pietro: "Immediately send a boat up the river, find the floating island where the rescue team and his party are, and report the situation to them."
