Chapter 2028 Opening
Two members of the Holy Court rushed forward and reported to Seno, "Reporting to the City Lord, Commander Guranqi has sent a message for help. A large number of zombie creatures have been discovered in the outer area of the Lost Forest and are heading towards Bright Wood City. Due to the large number of zombie teams, the army is unable to resist completely. We must prepare for battle in advance."
Seno was in his early seventies and had sharp features. He frowned and asked, "How much longer?"
"Commander Guranqi will try his best to delay the zombie team. He will arrive in half an hour and join us to deal with the zombies."
"Humph!"
Seno snorted heavily and turned to look at Chu Yan who had just walked over.
"Chu Yan, how is the construction of the teleportation passage going?"
"Sir, the teleportation passage is already in the final test. It will soon enter the first phase of the test. City Lord, the construction of the teleportation device has always been in a rush. The possibility of errors and leaks has greatly increased. Before using it, it must be tested once. Otherwise, it is very easy for a huge malfunction to occur and destroy the entire passage structure. At that time, it will only be more troublesome to repair."
"There's no time to wait. Ten minutes. I'll give you ten minutes to check the key areas of the portal. After that, activate the portal immediately. The elite reinforcements of the Holy Court are already waiting in Duncha. They will immediately enter Chiboreya to provide support after the portal is activated!"
Seno made prompt arrangements and turned to his assistant, saying, "You lead the reinforcements over there, make sure to stop them! Buy us more time!"
"Understood!"
The assistant immediately gathered his men and rushed out of the city with a group of subordinates to provide support.
Fang Heng stood at the entrance of the teleportation area and saw Chu Yan shaking his head gently from a distance. He immediately understood most of what was happening.
It seemed like he had failed.
Chu Yan did not trick Seno into leaving the city.
There were still some hiccups but it was not a big problem.
Seeing that the first phase of the plan had failed, Fang Heng calmly stayed in place, glancing at the game hints that were refreshing at a rate of several pages per second.
The situation with the zombie clones on the front line was excellent!
After his vampire bloodline had been strengthened, the zombie team received substantial improvements, providing a significant margin of error for his plan.
Fang Heng simply turned off the regular information alerts and patiently waited for the teleportation passage to open.
Soon, the central teleportation passage was charged and repaired.
"Prepare to activate!"
The machinery maintenance supervisor of Bright Wood City shouted.
As the energy was rapidly injected, the space tearing device continued to release intense energy fluctuations and emitted a slight tremble.
"Buzz..."
A dark golden light screen rose from the center of the teleportation passage and slowly spread out, forming a spatial membrane.
City Lord Seno stared at the teleportation passage and asked, "Can we teleport now?"
"Please wait a moment. We need to confirm the location with the other side. The passage has just been established, and we still need to conduct some tests."
The City Lord could not wait any longer. He waved his hand and said directly, "There's no time! There's no need for any tests. Immediately open the teleportation passage!"
"Understood!"
Chu Yan said as he nodded at the players on his right.
"Send the teleportation reception signal!"
Everyone stayed where they were and stared at the teleportation passage quietly. A moment later, the dark golden light of the teleportation passage showed a weak fluctuation.
A young man dressed in Holy Paladin armor walked out of the teleportation passage. He glanced around and clasped his fists towards Seno, saying, "I am Captain Hornasan of the 7th Legion from the Holy Court! Are you Lord Seno of Bright Wood City?"
"That's right. Bright Wood City is facing a huge crisis. Gather your team and immediately head out of the city outskirts for reinforcement and intercept the undead creatures!"
Hornassan had a sharp look in his eyes, and a hint of excitement showed between his eyebrows. He replied in a deep voice, "Yes! Understood!"
Duncha was one of the few game worlds with the best comprehensive strength in the mid-level game, and its strength was generally higher. Apart from that, Duncha World was now completely in the hands of the Holy Court.
In this world, there was only one path that could be taken.
Similarly, because there were no enemies, the Duncha World had been peaceful for too long, and it was difficult to earn merit points.
Now, the opportunity had finally come!
"Follow me! Support the front line of the Holy Court team!"
The soldiers from Duncha's Holy Court poured out through the teleportation passage. After Hornasan's team gathered, they headed towards the outskirt of Bright Wood City to provide reinforcement
Outside of Bright Wood City, the zombie crowd slowly approached the city. Its speed was not fast yet it exerted an intangible psychological pressure.
Guranqi had tried all the methods he could think of, but he still couldn't stop the zombie team.
The defensive line formed by the entire Holy Court retreated step by step.
The good news was that as more and more teams came to support them, their efficiency in dealing with the zombie team was slowly increasing.
Although facing the seemingly endless horde of zombie teams, the marginal increase in output efficiency was like a drop in the bucket...
At least it was a good sign, right?
"Look!"
One of the players who was fighting against the undead army suddenly noticed something and looked behind him.
At this moment, the city gates of Bright Wood City slowly opened. A well-equipped team of the Holy Court came out in a single file and quickly approached them.
"Reinforcements! Our reinforcements have arrived!"
"It's reinforcements from Duncha! The teleportation passage has been successfully activated!"
"Stabilize the formation! Be careful!"
The Holy Court's side instantly became more imposing.
Duncha's elite team was much stronger than the ordinary team from the Holy Court!
Coincidentally, at this moment, the commander of the army, Eloda, arrived from the right with his knights.
Looking at the zombie team in front of him, Eloda was surprised.
There were actually so many of them?
The mountain of undead corpses used to be a joke, but seeing the current situation, Eloda suddenly felt a significant increase in pressure.
He had guessed that the situation in the Lost Forest might be very bad, but he did not expect it to be so bad!
"Follow me! Charge!!!"
Eloda led his team and charged towards the zombie team!
Every Holy Paladin in the party was enveloped in a layer of holy light. The charging knights were like sharp swords, cutting a path through the zombie team!
At the back of the main battlefield, the players were excited when they saw Eloda bringing reinforcements like a god descending from the heavens.
Their hard work was not in vain!
They finally managed to delay the zombie team until the portal was opened!
New forces kept joining the battlefield, and with the Holy Court teams coming from various parts of the Empire for reinforcement, the advance of the zombie horde was significantly slowed down.
Eloda heard the cheers from the main army not far away, but he was not happy at all. Instead, he frowned.
The overall strength of the zombie horde had significantly increased compared to the previous encounter!
It was getting harder and harder to deal with!
