Chapter 1441: Chapter 903: The Indestructible Divine Shield
"What kind of tactic is the Eternal Church using?"
On the walls of the Chosen City, as the decisive battle mission commenced, Ye Ye, who also chose to return, looked at the Judgement Knights charging from below with a bit of surprise.
To this day, he was no longer the novice he was when he first entered the game, having participated in countless large and small war missions, he had a good understanding of the "Elf Kingdom’s" siege tactics.
For such majestic walls as those of the Chosen City, although temporarily rigged by players, they could still be considered formidable fortifications.
Faced with such walls, direct charges were undoubtedly suicidal.
The normal approach should be to use various heavy siege equipment to first break open a section of the wall and then launch an attack...
"Are they crazy?"
This was Ye Ye’s first thought.
"Did they run into a bug?"
This was the thought of many players witnessing the scene.
For a moment, the players cast bewildered and astonished looks at the Judgement Army below the walls, unsure of what madness had overtaken the Eternal Church.
However, what happened next surpassed everyone’s expectations, leaving many players who were waiting to see the Eternal Church stumble wide-eyed in shock.
The horns sounded, and the army pressed forward.
The Judgement Knights charged forth, shouting like a tidal wave as they rushed toward the Chosen City.
As they charged, a platinum glow gradually emanated from their bodies, spreading until it covered the entire battlefield outside the Chosen City.
In an instant, it seemed as if the whole battlefield had turned into a platinum ocean...
It was an incredibly dense force of faith, so dense it almost became tangible, causing players who also played as priests to gape in amazement.
The density... far exceeded that of ordinary divine arts or divine favor.
With the power of faith enveloping them, the Judgement Knights looked like platinum light beings.
And when they reached the Oak Guardians outside the city walls, the battle erupted instantly.
Outside the Chosen City, the massive oaks rooted in the ground transformed into Tree-man forms, roaring as they wielded their huge roots and branches to strike at the Judgement Knights...
These Oak Guardians were temporarily empowered by Eve to assist the players in battle.
With Eve’s steadily increasing power and divine force, empowering these Oak Guardians was now a negligible cost.
Previously, due to the sensitivity of their identity, Eve couldn’t deploy the Oak Guardians in battle, but now it was different.
Now that the World Tree’s identity was known to all, they could be used without worry.
The Oak Guardians were powerful, each with at least the strength of a Lower Gold level. They were immensely strong and had the abilities of war priests, but their defensive power far exceeded that of the average player.
Moreover, as long as they weren’t killed outright, they could instantly regenerate under the glow of the Life Divine Skill.
These Oak Guardians could certainly serve as the first line of defense in this defensive war.
The players on the walls were even ready for the Judgement Army’s vanguard to be tangled with by the Oak Guardians, while they seized the opportunity to use various long-range attacks to cut down the Eternal Church.
However, the idea was beautiful, but the scene that followed left everyone stupefied.
Just as these Oak Guardians were about to strike the Judgement Knights, the platinum glow quickly spread over their bodies.
Then, the glow suddenly transformed into blazing Holy Fire, engulfing the Oak Guardians...
In just a moment, the first line of defense formed by the Oak Guardians was engulfed in flames.
The Oak Guardians let out cries of agony as they struggled, attempting various purification spells, but the platinum flames seemed imperishable, unable to be extinguished, burning continuously over them.
In just a moment, the powerful Oak Guardians turned to ashes in the mysterious platinum flames.
Only those who sensed something amiss, reacted quickly, and were strong enough to retreat to the back of the walls managed to escape.
The Judgement Knights, however, crossed the first defensive line formed by the Oak Guardians, continuing their furious charge towards the walls of the Chosen City.
Unscathed.
Seeing this, the players’ expressions turned solemn.
"What fire is this? Even if it’s the Holy Fire of the Eternal Lord, this is too outrageous..."
On the walls, watching as the Oak Guardians’ defense line turned to ash in the flames, Moonlight Jasmine, who also returned to the Chosen City upon receiving the mission, couldn’t help but speak.
"It’s indeed Holy Fire, but much, much stronger. I felt the dense power of faith within; it’s already comparable to ordinary divine favor."
On the walls, Berserker broke off a burning branch and tossed it to the ground, speaking in a heavy voice.
"Divine Favor?"
On the other side, hearing Berserker’s words, Little Xian Miao, who was preparing to cast the Nine-Ring Burst Magic, paused her actions, staring wide-eyed in disbelief at the Judgement Army outside the city walls.
Divine Favor...
Could it be that each of these Judgement Knights from the Eternal Church was equivalent to a Divine Favored?!
This... just how much power of faith would that consume!
