Chapter 1897 - 1897 A Test
1897 A Test
“Hahaha, Commander Anthea, you were too cautious. Those undead only know how to hide in those places and do shady things. I think that’s all they can do. Don’t worry, the holy realm has already learned of this matter. They sent a powerful army to help us solve this problem.”
The people outside only knew that there was a teleportation passage connecting the fortresses to the high-tier world.
There was not just one.
There were two.
They were connected to two advanced game worlds.
The second teleportation passage was even more powerful, and it could teleport stronger teams from the Holy Court into the game world of Ciboreya to provide support.
It was just that the interval between uses was longer.
After the Holy Court heard about Fang Heng, they immediately deployed a team to capture him.
“Good! Then I’ll leave it all to everyone in the Holy Court.”
The imperial uncle felt that the matter had been mostly resolved and nodded happily.
At this moment, a soldier rushed over. “Reporting to the Great Commander, the undead creatures came out of the canyon! They are heading towards the fortresses. Commander, please make preparations!”
Undead creatures came out of the canyon?
What was going on?
Everyone was stunned.
Bishop Kotter’s face stiffened. He felt like he had been slapped in the face.
Just a moment ago, he had confidently said that there was no problem at all. In the blink of an eye, the undead creatures had run out of the canyon.
He felt depressed.
What was going on?
Why did the undead creatures come out?
“Alright!”
The imperial uncle was also stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud.
“They still dare to come out. Commander Anthea, the undead took advantage of the geographical advantage and ambushed us. Now that they’ve come out, let’s attack with all our might and defeat them in one fell swoop!”
The people of the Holy Court immediately became spirited when they understood this.
Of course, he hoped that the people of Jones Kingdom could enter the battlefield and help them deal with the undead!
Kotter was overjoyed. He nodded in agreement. “With the elites of Jones Kingdom and the help of the Holy Court, we will be able to defeat the undead in one strike!”
Anthea’s expression changed when she heard that. She quickly cupped her fists and replied, “Imperial Uncle, please be careful with this matter. The Jones Kingdom has already agreed with the Holy Court. It’s just a convenience. It lent the teleportation passage to the Holy Court’s army to pass through. It won’t participate in the battle itself…”
“Commander Anthea!”
The imperial uncle raised his voice and interrupted Anthea. His tone became a little unhappy.
Anthea had repeatedly questioned his decision. Wasn’t this indirectly saying that he didn’t understand?
“You have to understand that the situation outside isn’t about whether we should join the battle or not. The undead of the Enkama Empire are about to assault us! Do you think we can still be cowards on the spot?!”
“Or do you think that the brave warriors of the Jones Kingdom are afraid of these undead?”
The imperial uncle sensed that Anthea was being too careful.
“The military fortresses are filled with magical crystal cannons. Even if a large number of high-tier undead creatures attack, we can still block them! Why would you be afraid of these low-level zombies and ghouls?”
The imperial uncle inquired, “What’s going on?” Then, he turned his gaze towards Bishop Kotter of the Holy Court, asking, “Bishop Kotter, can the Holy Court assist us in dealing with this undead?”
At this juncture, how could Kotter claim that they were inferior to the undead?
The only one expressing reservations was Fang Heng.
However, Kotter had only heard of Fang Heng’s name and was unaware of Fang Heng’s true strength.
He believed that, no matter how formidable Fang Heng might be, he was just a player. How much power could he truly possess?
“Imperial Uncle, you must be joking. The undead in the canyon are indeed extraordinary, but we are already prepared. With the holy power enchantment, your country’s soldiers can inflict additional damage on undead creatures. I can assure you that we will not lose this battle!”
“Good!” The imperial uncle exclaimed, turning to Anthea. “Great Commander, you’ve understood it all. Is there anything else you wish to say?”
“But…” Anthea hesitated.
“Anthea!” The imperial uncle interjected sharply. “Have you considered the consequences if these undead creatures invade our Jones Kingdom? The lives of our citizens are about to be threatened! I command you now, go out of the city to confront the enemy! Prepare the magical crystal cannons! We must completely obliterate this group of undead!”
“Yes!” Anthea received a deep breath and responded resolutely, “Understood!”
…
Fang Heng led a substantial number of zombie clones out of the passage, using ordinary zombie clones as the vanguard. They surged toward the military fortresses in a dense formation.
“Disregarding other considerations. Let’s conduct a preliminary test!” Fang Heng thought.
Fang Heng also comprehended that, following the recent battle, as long as the people of the Holy Court weren’t foolish, they wouldn’t continue sending individuals into the canyon.
At most, they could simply circumvent the border plains, taking a bit more time to invade the heart of the Enkama Empire.
However, due to the mission’s time constraints, he had no time to waste!
It was better to charge directly!
In the worst-case scenario, all the zombie clones would be depleted, causing as much damage as possible.
Once exhausted, Fang Heng planned to devise a strategy elsewhere.
However, Fang Heng did not expect that the zombie clones would leave the canyon and gather outside the canyon, heading toward the military fortress.
Ahead of them, the gates of the Jones Kingdom’s military fortresses swung wide open!
The elite heavy-armored knights of Jones Kingdom formed a line, assembling at the entrance of a fortress on the right side of the inverted triangle.
Behind them stood the Holy Court’s Paladin and priest team.
Infused with holy skills, the knight commander’s spear gleamed with the radiance of Holy Power.
This group of elite heavy-armored knights represented years of wealth accumulation for the Jones Kingdom. Each knight was equipped with top-notch gear, a stark contrast to the cannon fodder sent out earlier.
As a precaution, almost the entire military force of Jones Kingdom concentrated along the border with the Enkama Empire.
Entering a battle-ready stance, Anthea dismissed her scattered thoughts and elevated her knight commander’s spear high.
“Behind us lies our home! For the protection of our families! For the glory of the knights! Follow me! Charge! Crush them!”
“Roar!”
The heavily armored knights spurred their warhorses, charging toward the multitude of undead creatures at the canyon entrance!
A plain of about seven to eight hundred meters stretched between the two forces.
The knights urged their warhorses to a frenzied pace, brandishing their spears as they charged forward!
Atop the city fortress, Jones Kingdom soldiers and players watched as sand soared and heavy-armored knights raced toward the undead. Nervous tension gripped them.
The zombie team rushing out of the valley ahead showed no intention of evasion.
Indeed, with their slow movement speed, they stood no chance of escaping the charging knights.
The heavy-armored knights lined up in a line and elevated their spears.
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two forces rapidly closed!
