"Hold them off."
When Linger paid attention to Celia in the distance, there was a commotion nearby.
He retracted his gaze and looked to the front right, where the defense line was being attacked by a group of resurrected corpses.
Lin Ge's eyes narrowed slightly and he saw a familiar figure among them.
The adventurer who drank in the bar the day before yesterday, Hoss.
At this time, Hoth has become a member of the undead army as he wished, turning into a ferocious-looking corpse, and looks far more powerful than the same kind around him.
Without the skeleton mages controlling his mind, he was full of desire to fight, wanting to break Castalon and take revenge on the nobles in the city.
The Skeleton Mage sensed his strong hatred and gave him a powerful boost. While giving him strength, he became even crazier.
The steel knife in his hand was stained with blood, and exuded an evil aura that had almost turned into substance. Those who were chopped down by him would immediately get up with a roar, and charge after him.
The outer defense line of the barrier was torn open by the crazy ghouls, who rushed into the barrier like wolves into a flock of sheep. The mages who stayed in the barrier fled in panic, and chaos quickly spread.
"Why are they not affected by the barrier? Has the sacred barrier failed?" Someone exclaimed in the chaos.
Lanya and Dilu Ke were so frightened by the crazy corpses that their faces turned pale, and they hid behind Linge together.
"Linge, let's run away quickly." Lanya tugged on Linge's cloak.
Linge took out the Moga Staff, which was shaped like a long stick, and had no intention of escaping, at least until Celia came back.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." He comforted the two of them.
The corpses that broke through the barrier did not continue to move forward, but spread out to both sides. It seemed that they wanted to cut off the retreat of the warriors outside the barrier.
Chaos quickly spread.
Ringer saw the crazy Hoss running in the direction of him, and Hoss also saw him. He was obviously stunned for a moment, and the madness in his eyes subsided slightly. Then he shouted, bypassed Ringer, and ran past him. .
Ringer's grip on the staff was slightly loose. If Hoss completely lost his mind and planned to swing a knife at him, he wouldn't mind giving him a blow on the head.
However, some ghouls who are not very clear-minded are not so smart.
Some of them have broken heads, no wonder they can't see the situation clearly.
If their brains are complete enough, they should know that it is best not to mess with people who even the leader wants to avoid.
But now they only knew how to seek the breath of a living person, so they pounced on Linge, and then even the remaining head was blown away, leaving a dazed body that was knocked down and trampled by their companions.
"Follow me."
Linge used his staff to open a path and moved outside the barrier, preparing to meet Celia.
…
Outside the boundary.
"Ghoulies have rushed into the barrier. They are trying to cut off our retreat."
"Retreat quickly, destroy the enemies in the rear first, don't be surrounded."
The commotion in the rear quickly attracted the attention of the frontline soldiers, and they began to rush back. However, corpses and skeletons kept coming from behind, including a large number of familiar faces, blocking their way back.
Taxi looked at the skeletons and corpses pouring in around him. His companions fell one after another and became enemies when they got up again, and he began to feel desperate.
Is this the end of my road? she thinks.
At this time, she noticed a man holding a red stick and two girls who looked like wizards, opening a path among the undead and heading towards her direction.
Hey, that guy is...
On the other side, Ringer swept away the eyeless skeletons and corpses. As he advanced, he also noticed the female paladin in front of him.
"Isn't that the female knight who followed me in the city a few days ago?"
The other party's condition didn't look very good. The gorgeous white armor was stained with blood. Of course, it wasn't the skeletons' blood, but the blood of his companions, including injured companions and companions who had turned into corpses.
Do you want to save her? She seems to be looking at me strangely. Does she mean to ask me for help?
Ringer would move in this direction just because Celia was in this direction. In other words, he was just passing by and did not come to save this group of people.
However, after reuniting with Celia, when returning to the city, he could take them back to break out of the siege.
Just as he was thinking this, a blue figure passed through the sky. He raised his head and saw the dazzling cross sword light falling, clearing away the undead in the area in front of him and opening up a path.
The figure fell.
Lin Ge judged from the back that it was a woman. The back was tall and slender, but the weapon was an exaggerated sword.
The big sword stuck beside her was almost as tall as her, and the sword's edge reflected the sunlight, making it dazzling.
"You guys come back to the barrier quickly, I will block the enemies in front."
A pleasant female voice passed through the crowd and reached Ringer's ears. It was indeed a woman, and her voice sounded very young.
In the crowd, Taxi stared at the blue figure in front of him, with a strange light shining in his eyes.
Great Sword Klein, the youngest Holy Knight of the Holy Light Religion, became a Holy Knight at the age of seventeen. Currently, there are only fourteen Holy Knights in the Holy Light Religion, so she is regarded as the youngest legend.
Unexpectedly, she came to Castalon. Did she come through the teleportation array in the church?
Looking at that confident figure, the despair in Taxi's heart was swept away. Although there was only Klein in front of her, it made her feel more at ease than thousands of troops.
As she retreated, she glanced in the direction of Linger. Linger pretended not to notice and continued to move forward, passing through the retreating crowd.
"Are you here to save them too? Sorry, I seem to have been the first." The figure next to the sword turned around and smiled.
Her appearance was more childish than Linge expected. She looked almost like Lanya, with a childish look on her face. But the body wrapped in Canglan's light clothes is much more mature than Lanya.
"Haha, people who meet me for the first time always have this expression, but I am already twenty years old."
Seemingly sensing Ringer's surprise, Klein laughed twice, casually pulled out the sword beside him, swung forward, and swept away the undead that came up again, leaving a ten-meter clearing in front of him.
The body of the undead swept by the sword light turned into powder and could no longer be reorganized.
"No, I'm here to see my friends."
"Really? Then your friends must still be in front. There are still some people surrounded in front. I'm about to save them. You can follow me."
Ringer smiled.
"Thank you for your kindness, but no need to bother." Linge didn't want to run around behind her, he just wanted to go directly to Celia.
Moreover, there is a necromancer following him. The bones she summoned are absorbing the souls on the battlefield, and the other person seems to be full of righteousness. If she discovers him, he may cause unnecessary trouble.
So he thought it was better to act alone.
Lin Ge's reply shocked Klein.
Hey, doesn’t this man know who I am?
