Fang Zheng had anticipated many situations, but he had to admit that he had never anticipated the current situation - the scepter that seemed to be suspended in the air was as if fixed there. Even if Fang Zheng used all his strength, he could not make it move, and instead he was left hanging in the air.
This is very embarrassing.
Fortunately, Fang Zheng is not completely helpless.
"Nymph!"
"Master? What do you want?"
"This thing is fixed in mid-air. I can't get it down at all. Do you have any way to fix it?"
"Is there such a thing?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Nymph was stunned for a moment, then she was silent for a moment before giving another answer.
"Master, I have investigated. That magic item has completely become the pillar of the two worlds. It seems to have been branded by a very powerful existence. I need to spend time blocking the other party's bottom-level permissions and then shut it down completely. In this way, Master, you can take the magic item. But..."
"but?"
"During this period, no one can interfere or disturb me. However, once I start to crack it, the magical protection and alarm there will be immediately alerted... So when I start to act, Master, you must guard there and don't let anything else get close to or touch the magic item."
“How long will it take?”
Hearing Nymph's answer, Fang Zheng frowned.
"Ten minutes! It will take at least ten minutes!"
"Can I open the seal and wrap it up?"
This was Fang Zheng's first thought. Since he didn't want others to notice his actions, he would naturally activate Feng Jueshen and do it without anyone noticing. However, when hearing Fang Zheng's question, Nymph hesitated for a moment and then gave a negative answer.
"I know what you mean, Master, but I suggest you not do this, because we are currently in a half-dimensional space that is artificially created and supported, and your seal is also creating a similar space. There is already a layer of plane projection superimposed on it. If another layer is superimposed, there is a high risk of plane collapse due to the unbearable load..."
"Okay, I'll give you ten minutes! By the way, let Hecate send Nunnally and the others back to the ship first and protect the others."
If it was before, Fang Zheng would have hesitated for a while, after all, there were only him and Tilia here, and there were tens of thousands of undead spirits on the other side. But now, since the system had issued the task, Fang Zheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it.
Not to mention, he is not completely without chance!
But before that, Fang Zheng asked Hecate to send the others back to the ship first to avoid any accidents. Although he didn't know what would happen after taking the scepter, if there was any problem, those powerless girls would only cause trouble if they stayed here.
"Okay, Master, I'm starting the invasion!"
“——!!”
Before Nymph's voice faded from Fang Zheng's ears, Fang Zheng felt the scepter he was holding tremble suddenly. Then an invisible wave spread in all directions. At the same time, he didn't know if it was Fang Zheng's illusion, but he felt that the knocking and shouting sounds that he could still hear in the distance seemed to stop suddenly at this moment, and then...
“Wuwuwu——wuwu——!!”
The horn sounded.
Here we come!!
Seeing the dots of light in the distance swarming like a swarm of fireflies, flying towards the square where he was, Fang Zheng felt a little nervous, but he did not back down. He loosened his right hand and it fell to the ground. The next moment, the Holy Sword Duankong appeared in Fang Zheng's hand. This sword was more powerful than a vampire against undead creatures.
But this was not the end. Soon, Fang Zheng held the sword in his right hand and waved his left hand forward. Then, a golden summoning array appeared in front of him, and then a huge humanoid creature with golden wings all over his body emerged from it. He was wearing a simple robe and exuded abundant divine light.
It actually worked!
Looking at the angel that appeared in front of him, Fang Zheng heaved a sigh of relief. This was the first time he had actually used the summoning spell he learned in the main world - Oath of Binding. Now it seems that his luck is not bad.
"Holy Sword Yakong, I need your help!"
Seeing the angel he summoned looking at him, Fang Zheng immediately gave him an order.
"I hope you can help me resist the attacks of these undead creatures. I need to remove the barrier here, but it will take time!!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's order, the Yakong angel nodded without saying anything, then crossed his hands in front of his chest, and the next moment Fang Zheng saw his two arms suddenly transformed into two long, flaming blades. Then Yakong Tiankong flapped his wings and turned into a barrier to block Fang Zheng's side.
But Fang Zheng was not finished yet. He kept moving his hands and soon summoned a mastiff-headed Archangel. Its body was much smaller than that of the Holy Sword Archangel, basically the same size as a human. The difference from the Holy Sword Archangel was that the mastiff-headed Archangel had a dog's head and used a giant sword as a weapon.
You said that if you were Anubis, I wouldn't be afraid of anything, right?
Fang Zheng looked helplessly at the Mastiff Yakong he summoned and had to ask for its help again. Fortunately, for the angels, the undead creatures would always be their mortal enemies, so the Mastiff Yakong did not care about Fang Zheng's attitude and quickly agreed to his request.
At the same time, the undead creatures finally rushed into the square.
"They are the ones who want to seize the artifact!!"
“Kill them!!”
To Fang Zheng's surprise, these undead creatures were not as mindless as he had thought. On the contrary, except for their appearance, they behaved like ordinary people. After seeing Fang Zheng and the two angels surrounding him, these undead sailors roared and rushed over, brandishing their weapons. Seeing these undead creatures, the two angels summoned by Fang Zheng naturally rushed over immediately.
Although from the perspective of numbers, two angels are obviously no match for many undead creatures. However, as the nemesis of undead creatures, the angels are naturally not to be trifled with. Their bodies are filled with abundant threatening auras. Any evil creature that enters their aura range will be terrified and tremble because of the divine power. Some weak undead creatures even don't need to wait for the angels to take action, and will be directly burned to ashes by the divine aura.
In addition, the Archons are combat experts, so dealing with these weak undead creatures is naturally not a problem for them. It's just like a level 80 player with max-level equipment soloing Stratholme. The only question is whether you are tired, not whether you will die.
And these undead creatures that rushed over first were obviously not that powerful. Although Fang Zheng did not sense the breath of death from these undead creatures, these undead creatures immediately began to burn and catch fire after entering the spiritual energy range of the two angels - this shows that the scepter may have blocked the breath of death in their bodies, but it could not change the nature of these undead creatures.
Under the two angels' attack, Fang Zheng only saw the undead sailors coming from the front falling down like wheat in large numbers, but these undead sailors were still not afraid. They were obviously not fools. After finding that the two angels were difficult to deal with, they immediately tried to bypass the two angels and directly attack Fang Zheng who was standing under the scepter.
And at this moment, Tilia, who had been waiting in the back, finally took action!
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!!!”
Beams of light whizzed through the air, forming a dense firepower net, knocking down the undead creatures that climbed onto the roof from both sides, along with the burning house. Holding an umbrella, Tilia seemed to have turned into a human turret, building a firepower barrier on all sides of the square. Anything that dared to approach would be blown to pieces under Tilia's ruthless bombardment.
At the same time, Fang Zheng was not idle either. He quickly cast a series of protective spells to protect himself as much as possible. Because Fang Zheng knew very well that this mission might not be so easy to complete.
A minute passed.
Two minutes passed...
On the surface, everything seemed to be going smoothly, but Fang Zheng was watching his surroundings with vigilance. Tilia's bombardment was not unlimited, and although the two Archon Angels looked very powerful, they were only summoned by him after all. And unlike the Soul Stone, the creatures summoned by the Otherworldly Oath had a time limit, and would immediately return to their own planes after being seriously injured. So now Fang Zheng could only pray that these two could hold out for a little longer... at least, for ten minutes!
But unfortunately, the other party is not a fool either.
Just when the angels once again blocked the attacks of the undead sailors, Fang Zheng suddenly saw a series of fire bursting out in the distance. The next moment, he saw dozens of shells burning with green flames falling from the sky like meteors and shooting towards them!
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!”
In just a blink of an eye, the entire square was immediately shrouded in smoke. It seemed that the opponent knew very well that the scepter could not be destroyed by such an attack, so he did not care at all.
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Even Fang Zheng coughed a few times in embarrassment before hastily retreating. He looked ahead and saw that although the two angels did not seem to have suffered any harm, their originally abundant spiritual energy now seemed to have dimmed a lot.
It looks like things are getting a little troublesome.
