My Liver Experience in the World of Cthulhu
Chapter 476: Shattrath attacked
In Shattrath City, the bright moonlight and the silver light of the Moon Spirit Light Array blended seamlessly.
On this quiet night, most people who had been busy all day had fallen asleep. The cold wind blew, and yellow leaves swirled and fell.
Several patrolling soldiers rubbed their hands and stamped their feet, hiding in a corner to be lazy.
"It's so cold before the snow falls. This winter must be very hard to endure."
"Yeah." A soldier echoed, "For those of us who are originally residents of Hammers City, it's okay. It's cold and we can just light the fire in the fireplace.
There have been refugees fleeing here these days. They can only squeeze into temporary wooden houses, which is even harder to endure."
"Hehe, you are wrong. Those who can escape here are not refugees. The real refugees may have become food for evil creatures.
In the past few years, when the gray fog had not yet descended, it was very difficult for ordinary people to take an airship, and it was even more impossible to have a place to escape."
Another soldier interrupted and said, "That makes sense. Hey, how come the world has changed in the blink of an eye? I heard that."
He lowered his voice and continued:
"I heard that the Holy See no longer exists!"
"How is that possible, Haru, have you drunk too much?
If you slander the church, you will be dragged out and flogged!"
James' eyes suddenly widened. He was a devout believer of the Lord of Fire, and the Holy See was the holy mountain in his heart.
Now someone told him that the sacred place collapsed, and his first reaction was that the other party was talking nonsense.
Haru blushed: "Old James, how dare I lie about such a thing!
I have a relative who works with the Good Luck Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce. It is said that he passed by the city of Bly a few days ago on an airship and saw with his own eyes that the area had become a ruin, as if it was pressed down by some powerful force. The ruins of the city turned into an obvious deep pit, and a piece of broken rubble seemed to have been burned.
And there are a large number of evil creatures entrenched there, including a monster with green or black and red flames burning all over the body, and a humanoid creature that looks like a beast."
James couldn't hear what Haru was saying. He just felt dizzy and his head was buzzing.
The other party was right. It was impossible and dared not to make rumors about such a thing.
In the minds of believers, St. Peter's Basilica has a very special meaning. It is the residence of gods on earth and the place where gods return.
Believers believe that no matter how dark the world is, the advent of gods will surely turn the world around and cleanse the universe.
Now, the place where his soul was placed was gone, and James felt as if the sky had fallen.
"Haru, be careful! How can you talk about such things?"
The captain of the team said:
"The situation in the kingdom is unstable now, and all kinds of rumors are spreading. After verification, they are all spread by some people who have been bewitched by the evil god.
It is not our turn to worry about the general environment. That is the business of the Pope, the Duke and the cardinals.
We just need to do our part and get a salary to support our families. Why worry so much?"
The captain sighed slightly in his heart. No matter what the situation is, they can only go with the flow. Instead of worrying extra, it is better to live a simpler life.
He was the first resident of Hamers City. At this time, he was very grateful for the decision at that time. He witnessed the gradual prosperity of this place from desolate to prosperous, and witnessed the transformation of this place from Hamers Parish to the territory of the Duke of the North.
Overall, he is very satisfied with his current life. The Duke has strong strength, and the combat effectiveness of the Silver Dawn Guard is also considerable. If the sky falls, there are tall people to support it.
"That's right, Captain," Haru immediately agreed, and at this moment he felt a little regretful.
This was said by my cousin when he was drunk. He also said that there was a gag order in the city of Bly and that he couldn't mention it to anyone. If the news spread, he would be punished.
As soon as he finished speaking, he found that half of the sky behind him suddenly darkened. He turned his head and saw a dark cloud that came from nowhere and covered the sky above the city.
The dark cloud rolled and turned into a monster covered with tentacles.
The monster opened its mouth, and gray-white phantoms flew out of it, swooping down in an overwhelming manner, and the crazy howling resounded through the sky.
"No, enemy attack!"
The captain reacted and realized that the gray-white phantoms in the sky were evil spirits!
He hurriedly took out the flare from his body and tremblingly loaded it into the gun.
This usually extremely simple action was delayed. He glanced at the sky and saw the evil spirit hit a layer of light shield like a bright moon.
It was like standing in a glass house and looking up at the heavy rain pouring down overhead, with the faint traces spreading like water waves.
The light shield vibrated, and the amplitude became larger and larger, as if it would break in the next moment.
The hearts of those who were awake under the light shield were up and down as the light shield shook.
A golden beam of light rose from the center of the city, and the beam of light connected to the light shield, which became golden and colorful, and suddenly stabilized.
One by one, signal flares rose slowly, like red fireworks blooming, lighting up the night sky of the city.
"Captain, what kind of enemy is outside? How dare they attack our territory."
Haru stuttered, he felt his thighs shaking, and his voice was trembling.
"Don't worry, the territory's defense is very strong, nothing will happen!"
The captain comforted, his face regained calmness, but his heart was still uneasy.
The attack that can trigger the city's defense array is at least at the sixth level. Such an enemy only needs one finger to destroy the area where the team is located.
In Moya Castle, all the core members of the territory gathered together. Janice's eyes were sharp and she said loudly:
"Everyone, the Duke and the Lady are not in the territory. No one can enter the central control room of the defense array. I just tried to send a message to the Duke, but got no response.
Let's discuss what to do next.
One thing I can tell you is that from the momentum of the attack, the enemy outside must be a sixth-level supernatural creature."
She was attacked by a sixth-level enemy before. The intensity of the attack on the city now is stronger than when she was attacked through the defense array. She guessed in her heart that the enemy may have crossed the silver level and reached the level of gods.
She didn't dare to tell everyone about this guess, fearing that it would cause unnecessary panic.
Several core members looked at each other. They were all promoted later and had no relevant experience.
"Wait a little longer. Bishop Nick and Bishop Fanny will arrive soon. They should have a solution."
Janice glanced at everyone and shook her head imperceptibly.
These people, like her, are combat talents. They are not as good at dealing with emergencies as they are. After all, their experience is not up to par.
At this time, she couldn't help but start to worry about her father. Del failed to break through the silver level and was seriously injured. She has been with him all the time.
She is on duty today. Now there is such a big commotion outside. She is worried that her father's already bad spirit will be frightened again.
A few minutes later, Janice heard the neighing of horses outside and realized that Nick and his wife must have arrived.
It is strictly forbidden to ride horses in the castle. Unless it is an emergency, riding horses will be whipped.
Sure enough, a burst of hurried footsteps came closer and closer. Nick pushed open the door of the conference hall, followed by him.
"I'm sorry, everyone, I'm late."
Janice responded immediately: "Bishop Nick lives in Hamers City. It's great that he can come so quickly. Please take a seat. We are discussing how to protect the territory."
After Nick and his wife sat down, she asked:
"Bishop, you are experienced. What should we do next?"
Nick and his wife looked at each other and shook their heads gently:
"Wait."
"Wait? Just wait like this?"
"Yes, I believe you have also felt the power of the enemy's attack. We can only rely on the magic circle to defend."
Nick coughed and said:
"If there is no secret method to integrate everyone's power, we will only be defeated one by one if we want to attack."
Staying in the magic circle, although I can't help, it won't hurt.
Fanny added:
"The Duke once said that the magic arrays in Shattrath City have all been connected together. Now there are a total of twelve Moon Soul Spirit Light Arrays and three Sun and Moon Altars.
He also said that as long as the Sun Fire Liquid and Moon Dew in the altars have not dried up, Shattrath City will never fall.
When I came up just now, I deliberately observed the "water level" in the altar for a while. With the enemy's current attack strength, it is not a problem to support more than half a month of uninterrupted attacks.
By then, the Duke should have returned."
"Don't our magic arrays need to be manually adjusted in power?"
Janice asked in surprise. The protective magic array in Lorente Town needs to be manually adjusted in defense strength, and the control center room must have people on standby 24 hours a day.
Fanny smiled and shook her head, saying gently: "No, the magic circle in the city has been transformed by the Duke and can be activated automatically. The Sun and Moon Altar maintains energy supply, so the enemy will not suddenly increase the intensity of the attack and the magic circle will not be able to support it.
I heard from the Duke that in order to break the magic circle, it takes seven or eight sixth-level extraordinary people to attack continuously for several months, and it is only possible when the Sun Flame Liquid and Moon Dew in the Sun and Moon Altar increase involuntarily.
So, no matter how loud the outside momentum is, we just need to appease the people.
Before we came, we had notified the priests to carry out propaganda in the Hammers city area."
"I see, I'm relieved."
Janice's heart was also relieved. The Duke did not tell everyone what to do after leaving the territory, but informed them of the deadline for returning, which was at least ten days and at most half a month.
She pointed outside the door and asked:
"What kind of creature is the enemy outside? Bishop Nick and Bishop Fanny, please help us solve the puzzle."
"We just discussed it. Judging from the image formed by the black fog, there are two possibilities.
The first one is an evil god that I encountered when I was on a mission before. It looks like a bloated piece of meat with tentacles, goat limbs and eyes.
The second one is a subordinate of the sea evil god Cthulhu.
The minions of Cthulhu have been attacking the city for a few days. We think the second one is more likely."
"The ghost is lingering. The Endless Sea is a long way from Farouk. The evil god has repeatedly sent his subordinates here. It seems that he is against us."
Jennis frowned. This is not a good sign. The evil god has not fully revived yet. When Cthulhu wakes up completely, Shattrath City will inevitably face a fierce battle.
Nick was silent. When he learned that the Duke killed Dagon, he had this premonition.
The evil god will definitely retaliate. At that time, it will depend on who is stronger.
Fanny noticed the depressed mood in the room and chuckled and said:
"Everyone, it will take a long time for the evil god to revive. Judging from the Duke's past growth rate, he may have the strength to fight against the evil god in the future.
I have witnessed the Duke's growth from a second-level extraordinary person to today. His growth trajectory makes everyone ashamed, including the gods before they achieved the rank of gods."
"Yes, when I first met the Duke, he seemed to have just entered the extraordinary level not long ago."
Janice clenched her fists and waved them a few times, then stood up and said:
"I will send soldiers to spread the word so that the residents don't have to panic."
Nick and his wife also stood up:
"We both say goodbye, and we must keep a close eye on the Hammers District to prevent some deeply hidden enemies from taking advantage of the situation. Goodbye, everyone!"
Janice waved goodbye:
"Goodbye, I will contact the Duke once every morning, noon, and evening, and I hope the Duke can come back soon."
In the river outside Shattrath, two god-level deep divers from the Endless Sea took turns to try to break through the city's defenses.
After leaving R'lyeh, they entered the mainland at the mouth of the Hinterlands, followed the breath of Fizz and sneaked along the river, and finally arrived outside Shattrath.
Here, they clearly felt the breath left by Hydra and Fizz when they fell, so they attacked without saying anything.
In their eyes, the opponent was a human who seemed to be at the level of a god, but they had also reached this level, two against one, and the advantage was on their side.
After a fierce attack, they found that they could not break through the city's defensive array, and they were shocked. You know, it is easy for gods to destroy low-level arrays, and they realized the extraordinaryness of the array.
"Ibanez, what should we do now?"
"Continue to attack. Such a magic circle will consume a lot of energy when running.
As long as we maintain the current attack intensity, the enemy's magic circle will inevitably collapse. At that time, all the humans in the city will be our food.
But the enemy is not weak, we can't take it lightly. You should pay attention to hiding. If the enemy is forced out, seize the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow."
"Haha, good. Sneak attack, I'm good at it!"
A mutant deep diver sank to the bottom of the river. He used secret methods to minimize his presence, and then closed his eyes, motionless like a stone statue.
After a night, the light shield above the city was still stable, but Ibanez, who kept casting spells, felt a little tired.
"This turtle shell is really hard. I have to rest for a while before continuing to attack."
As he was talking, he caught a glimpse of a golden glow flying in the distance.
