Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 69: Persistence is Victory (1)
"Heaven's Gate"? The two golden gates in the air, about four meters high and three meters wide, could they really be the gates to the abode of the gods of light - "Heaven"? The five cardinals in white worked together to perform it. Could it be that this was the same prop that the Holy Heaven used in the last group semi-finals, another group "pseudo-artifact"? What was its function? Could it be that one or even several higher-level angels would fly out from it?
Witnessing the two tightly closed golden doors that stretched above the enemy camp, a series of questions suddenly arose in my mind. The unknown is the most worrying, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but I didn't dare to relax at all. I had already used the "Pet Summoning" twice, first summoning Taotao and Shaman, and then immediately used the "Blood Transformation" ability to summon two terrifying dragon knights. One stayed in the sky with Taotao, and the other fell to the ground and stayed by my side.
I didn't summon the strongest Wu Ma and Qi Te Lei first because I needed the help of the Terror Dragon Knight to replenish my mental strength. Although I can also forcibly absorb it from the opponent by activating the "Touch of Death", and the power of the artifacts has been enhanced to a certain extent, it should be easier than before, but the opponent will still try his best to resist, affecting my absorption speed. In this decisive battle moment where every second counts, I don't have so much time to entangle with them, it is faster to replenish from my subordinates - a Terror Dragon Knight in good condition can at least meet my current needs of four "Undead Summonings".
Just as I activated the "Touch of Death" to entangle the Horror Winged Dragon Knight and began to absorb its spiritual power, the Glory on the opposite side also completed their pre-war preparations. In addition to the five white cardinals who jointly cast the "Heaven's Gate", the remaining seven Light Sky Knights and eight White Cardinals have summoned their respective pets and angels. As the data obtained from the investigation, three four-winged light angels descended, four of which were possessed, and the remaining eight were all two-winged archangels, but they did not seem to be in a hurry to attack, but just adjusted their formation, with the seven Sky Knights responsible for vigilance at the front, and the eight descended angels lined up in front of the "Heaven's Gate", as if waiting for something.
In just a moment, the golden light emitted by the "Gate of Heaven" became softer and more indifferent, and more and more like a real existence. In an instant, with a loud bang, the two tightly closed doors quickly opened to the outside, and the singing that was originally only faintly heard suddenly became louder, but what appeared before our eyes was a dazzling white light, making it impossible to see what was hidden behind the "Gate of Heaven".
The answer to the mystery is about to be revealed. My heartbeat can't help but speed up a bit. What will fly out of the "Gate of Heaven"? A level nine six-winged seraph, one or several? Can they only last for ten minutes like a "pseudo-artifact"? If there are not many and there is a time limit, we may still have room to fight back. Otherwise, it will be difficult to buy enough time.
What? My eyes widened again, and I almost slowed down the speed of absorbing spiritual power. No angels of any level flew out of the "Gate of Heaven". Instead, the four-winged light angel who had already descended to the human world and was at the head of the team rushed straight in. The moment he passed the gate, he disappeared in the dazzling white light. Then there was another "boom", and the two doors that had just opened quickly closed again. In an instant, the white light disappeared, the singing stopped, and everything seemed to return to the scene before the gate opened.
What is this doing? What is the purpose of "recycling" the summoned angels back to "heaven"? What is the purpose? Before I could think about it, the closed door suddenly opened again, and the four-winged light angel that had just rushed in flew out of the white light again. No, it should be different from a moment ago. Although it still has four wings and has not grown another pair of wings, the light angel who was originally wearing a white robe and bare-handed now has two more weapons in his hands - a white round shield with a radius of about one foot in his left hand, and a long sword about one meter long and glowing with white light in his right hand, which makes him look even more powerful.
A shield and a sword, an angel with weapons, doesn't that mean they have stronger attack and defense power? According to common sense, their strength should be at least one or two levels higher than before. Last time, it was a half-possessed Light Wing Knight. No wonder so many cardinals in white were sent out this time. The original main force of attack was replaced by the descended angel. The strongest four-winged light angel at the head of the team should belong to the Holy Heaven. His original strength was estimated to be the eighth middle level. Now he has two more weapons, which is at least not lower than the eighth upper level, and may even reach the ninth lower level. There are seven more behind. If they can further enhance their strength through the "Heaven's Gate", the situation will be quite dangerous.
It was indeed so. The two light angels and five archangels followed in order and entered the "Heaven's Gate" one by one. They stayed for a while and then flew out again with two weapons. Although we knew and were worried about the opponent's means, there were seven light knights, including the Supreme Honor and Angels in the World, who were on guard in front of the battle. There were also several angels with weapons in the sky to assist in defense. The main force was twelve heavy-armored warriors. They were determined to defend. They had no ability to harass and destroy the five white-robed cardinals who were protected by the "Angel Robes" of Holy Heaven in the rear. In addition to reminding each other to be more careful, we could only helplessly watch the angels who came in and out of the "Heaven's Gate" continuously. The opponent's strength was getting stronger and stronger.
The first few were completed smoothly, but when it was the turn of the last archangel , before it rushed to the door, the "Heaven's Gate" that had just opened suddenly closed again, and then shook, and the golden light suddenly became bright, and the originally clear image instantly began to become blurred. At the same time, the bodies of the five white-robed cardinals who were half-kneeling and praying below were also shaking violently, as if they were too damaged and could no longer maintain their strength. And a moment later, the bodies of the five people suddenly exploded at the same time, emitting a dazzling white light, which quickly and completely covered their figures. After the instantaneous flash of light, the "Heaven's Gate" in the sky, which had become very blurred, and the white light on the ground all disappeared at the same time, but along with them, the five white-robed cardinals who had jointly cast the spell also disappeared without a trace - according to the system prompt, they have died and withdrawn from the game.
The enemy has lost five members before the battle officially started. I should have been happy, but instead of feeling relieved, I felt a greater sense of crisis - Glory dared to spend such a huge price to get a few angels to hold weapons, they will definitely be able to play a greater role and have a greater chance of defeating us. It seems that the previous guess was wrong. The angels' weapons will definitely not last only ten minutes. It is very likely that they will fight to the death or be taken back by the user. Chu Bawang, Afeng and others will need to hold on for a longer time and continue to withstand more fierce attacks.
Three four-winged light angels with weapons, four two-winged archangels, and the cardinal in white who is qualified to play in the finals are naturally very strong. Even if they only summoned archangels, they should have the strength of the seventh upper level. Now they are probably at least above the eighth lower level and may have reached the eighth middle level. The last archangel who didn't have time to bless the weapon is probably the weakest one. At least there is one left, which is a little comfort for us. However, the situation at hand is not only dangerous, but also precarious. Can they withstand the crazy attack of glory and successfully achieve a reversal? I don't know either. As the saying goes, perseverance is victory!
