Struggle in the Steam Age

Just when Nora retreated to the metal wall outside the tent, the dark elf priest who had smeared his own blood on the altar was sucked to the altar, and then the spiders carved from black stone on the wall came alive one by one. Come over and turn into smoke and fly to the location of the altar.

At the same time, the corpses on the ground, whether they were from dark elf priests or spider elves, all quickly weathered and turned into wisps of crimson smoke, which then floated into the sky and mixed with the smoke from the stone-carved spiders. They flew around the altar together.

Seeing this, Nora immediately commanded the long whips condensed from various lights to try to intercept the mist. It's a pity that this change is too fast, and the fog seems to be alive. So in the end, she only succeeded in intercepting a small part of the spiders that turned into mist.

Most of the black and red mist avoided Nora's interception and poured into the altar like a tide. At the same time, the blood of the sacrificed sacrifices on the ground also gathered there, covering the altar with a thick layer of fog. A thick barrier made of mist enveloped the entire altar and the priest beside it.

During this process, Nora used all kinds of magic to try to prevent the formation of this barrier. But because the barrier power comes from the altar, when facing a mid-level divine power, Nora also felt that it was difficult for her own power to break through the barrier of these powers.

"Boom—" When those long whips transformed into a drill bit and slammed heavily on the barrier made of mist, there was a sound like heavy objects colliding at the contact point of the two energies.

However, Nora could feel that this kind of magic, which could even deal a fatal blow to the young dragon, only wiped out less than 1/10 of the barrier's power.

Now this situation can be regarded as a blow to the other party, so it is very normal that it is difficult. Don't look at how Nora chopped melons and vegetables and cleared out almost all the enemies in this temporary church in a very short period of time.

But in fact, she used all the power she had mastered before, and then took advantage of the surprise attack to obtain the current results.

After all, Rose's church is located in a camp surrounded by an elite guard. There are also two spider elves who should be at the bronze peak or silver level, and a priest group headed by a master priest is stationed.

Under normal circumstances, a camp like this would require at least twice as many transcendents to capture it.

And if so many people are mobilized, whether it is prophecy magic or peripheral scouts, they can detect this sign in advance and notify the camp to make everyone ready.

The reason why Nora was able to gain such an advantage is purely because she caught this group of people by surprise, because under normal circumstances, no one would have thought that a legend would launch a random attack without warning, and could still carry a Hundreds of kilograms of enchanted weapons and explosives.

In this case, this group of unlucky guys naturally suffered heavy losses without any preparation. So that in a short period of time, only the master-level priest Rose who was severely cursed by the phantom power from La'lyeh remained.

And when he found that he couldn't fight and couldn't escape, and the camp was invaded by the enemy, it was impossible for anyone to come to support him in a short time. The pastor could only break the pot and choose to sacrifice everything in the church in exchange for the power of revenge from the gods.

Since the spider goddess Rose didn't always pay attention to her believers like some gods did, Nora felt that the priest's devotion only activated the divine power converted by the gods after these believers prayed.

Therefore, the current defensive power, as a tree without roots and water without a source, can theoretically be consumed by Nora's attacks again and again.

But it will take time to consume the power in the altar, but the problem now is that Nora can feel a special power slowly gathering in this barrier.

And with her current attack strength, she felt that it would be difficult for her to open this barrier before the power inside took shape.

After confirming this, Nora immediately stopped attacking and went to the door of the tent to take a look outside, only to find that the team that came earlier was fighting with a group of gray dwarves who seemed to be of extraordinary level. , obviously there is no way to support them for a while.

"If it doesn't work, you can withdraw now." Lawrence, who watched the little doll's movements through Nora's eyes, suggested to her.

"Just now, the headquarters has learned of the abnormal situation here, so it sent a second batch of elite teams as reinforcements. Your current mission can be said to have almost been completed."

"I understand, but I should be able to deal with this guy." At this time, Nora found that the energy reaction in the barrier in front of her stopped growing. After sensing the power in the barrier, she directly contacted him through the soul. said to Lawrence.

"After all, it's too close to the material transportation line below. I'm worried that if this enemy rushes out, it may cause some kind of irreversible damage to the transportation line."

"Well, I respect your opinion." After hearing Nora's words, Lawrence was silent for a few seconds, and then said in the tone of an old father seeing his daughter's future. "I believe in your judgment, but if the situation really changes, you should mainly save yourself—"

"Okay, I see, my lord brother." Nora said to Lawrence after taking another look at the team that was crushing the gray goblins, and then ended the communication. And in front of her, the black mist that formed the barrier was dissipating, and the things inside were about to come out.

In order to avoid being directly confused by the big move, Nora restrained all her aura when preparing for the battle, and then quietly hid behind a heavy solid wood cabinet.

Less than 20 seconds after she hid, the black mist dispersed in a flash, and then a wax-melting demon that looked like mud appeared in the tent.

With the appearance of the Waxing Demon, a mass of darkness completely enveloped the entire room. Then the melted wax demon changed from its original image of more than two meters tall, with a blood-red eyeball inlaid in its body, and eight whip-like tentacles writhing around it, like a completely crazy melting candle image into A large gas cloud column with a height of three meters and a diameter of one meter and five meters was formed.

At the same time, the breath of a great existence flickered on the altar. And with the disappearance of this aura, Nora felt that the volume of the gas cloud column transformed by the melting wax demon in front of her suddenly became larger.

Apparently, the priest just now managed to communicate with his god at last, but there was no projection of the god or the gaze of the god that Nora was most worried about. Instead, it just programmatically strengthened the power of the priest's last blow.

After the shape of the melting wax demon changed, the whole room immediately filled with a disgusting stench. Even this stench permeated the entire camp, making everyone in the camp feel extremely uncomfortable and have an urge to vomit.

"Strategic-level stinky cloud technique, drink No. 2 holy water and No. 3 antidote." Just after killing a gray dwarf with the pistol in his hand, the priest at the head of the team sensed the magic fluctuations coming from the temporary church and smelled it. On to the stink.

As a veteran who has fought against these guys on the battlefield for decades, he immediately ordered everyone to drink the corresponding magic potion. Fortunately, this kind of attack does not distinguish between enemy and friend, so they drank their own potion smoothly and went into battle again.

"I hope that Earl Sauer's puppet can last a while longer." Feeling the powerful magic wave from the church, the priest prayed silently for the puppet.
