Chapter 227: Another Battle with the Deer-Shou Spirit

The golden light flashed and disappeared, and the room fell into darkness again.

Outside the room, Watt just arrived at the door.

He rubbed his eyes hard. The golden light shining in the room gave him the feeling of walking from a dark room into the sunshine.

Strange, is it an illusion after waking up? Watt muttered and stood at the door. The bishop said that he would participate in the night watch, so of course he had to accompany him.

The dimness did not cause any trouble to Crown. His vision was still as bright as day and he could see everything in the room.

The brief vision was caught by him, and he summoned a wall of gold.

[Golden Light Mantra: 40006/100000; Level 2]

He discovered that his proficiency in the Golden Light Mantra had exceeded 40,000 points. Unknowingly, the progress of this skill had exceeded 40%.

Although he did not receive any prompt about acquiring new skills, he still noticed the difference at this time.

A warm current emanated from his dantian. As the blood flowed throughout his body, he felt his body was full of strength, and every cell in his body was cheering.

This feeling seemed familiar. He recalled carefully and finally remembered when and where this familiar feeling came from.

In Zak Town, he once had a fierce battle with Nick in order to advance his basic hammer skills.

By the end of the battle, he was already somewhat exhausted.

At that time, he only had the strength of a first-level transcendent, and his physical fitness was far inferior to that of the priest who was already a second-level transcendent.

At the last moment, he also felt a warm current coming out from his dantian, which quickly restored his physical strength and greatly reduced his fatigue.

He closed his eyes and carefully felt the warm current.

The warm current is endless, nourishing every inch of his muscles like a mother's hand gently soothing her child.

Does this count as a doubling of physical strength out of thin air? For a soldier, increased physical strength means being able to sustain high-intensity combat for a longer period of time, greatly improving his endurance.

What's more, releasing Fire Spirit Transformation and Source Armor requires a lot of physical strength. More physical strength can be directly converted into instant combat power for the Fire Fighter.

Clenching his fists, Crown showed two rows of white teeth in the darkness.

He walked out of the room, nodded to Watt who was waiting outside, and said, "Sorry for the wait. Let's go up to the city wall."

His keen spiritual perception detected the other party as soon as he arrived at the door. Even though he was visualizing, he still used part of his spiritual perception to be alert to the surrounding environment.

This kind of vigilance has become his instinct. In times of crisis, the person you can rely on most is yourself, at least for him.

Every church in Sanctuary has a towering spire engraved with a holy fire array, which is responsible for dispersing the gray fog.

The tower of the central cathedral is built against the cliff, is a hundred meters high, and is equipped with a special Fresnel lens that can cover the entire parish under the light source.

Fresnel lenses were originally used in navigation lighthouses. After the gray fog fell, the church also purchased a large number of lenses and installed them on high towers.

Because the power of the holy fire array in the central tower is too great, it is not currently activated.

The population of the new parish is too small now, and the church can barely obtain enough energy to maintain the operation of the Holy Fire Array. The situation will improve in the winter, when residents will begin to migrate.

Fukin grabbed Buster and took off into the air, circling above his master's head.

Crown and his companion came to the steps of the city wall, rode on the war horses that had been prepared long ago, stepped onto the city wall, and began their first patrol of the night.

The city wall is very long and it would be a waste of time to walk it.

"Da, da, da"

The rhythmic sound of horse hooves stepping on bricks and stones has a unique charm.

After the city walls were built, night watch became much safer, as most wild animals were simply unable to climb over the walls.

Now their main concern is the deer-headed monster that often comes to harass them, otherwise this monster may climb up the city wall, invade the sanctuary, kill people and then leave.

Night watch and patrol can still bring a certain deterrent effect to the Deer-Headed Demon, but it is hard to say when the monster really realizes that there is no threat in the short term.

This is also the reason why Fanny plans to get rid of the Deer-Headed Monster. Leaving a powerful and vengeful monster alone is always a big hidden danger.

On top of the city wall, there is a lookout tower built every forty meters, on which a holy fire array is buried. However, due to insufficient energy reserves in each sanctuary, only a small number of them have the array activated.

Most of the watchtowers were hung with large oil lamps to dispel the fog and provide light.

Watt recounted the night patrol: "Sir, if the night watch soldiers find the Deer-Headed Spirit, they will immediately light torches.

We used this method to tell the monster that it had been discovered, but the Deer-Headed Demon became more and more bold and would often rush under the city walls.

It plants seeds and then accelerates the growth of plants. It seems that it wants to destroy our walls in this way."

“Are its tactics effective?”

"It has a certain effect. Some stones will be corroded by plants. We need to send craftsmen to repair them the next day."

Clown frowned slightly. This deer-headed demon was obviously determined to confront them. It was so unyielding that it was obviously seeking its own death.

The two men rode their horses at a rapid speed. After a while, Fu Jin, who was flying in the air, quacked and flew behind them.

Crown stopped his horse and looked back. He saw several torches lit up not far away and soldiers shouting, "Be alert! We have found our target. Be alert!"

He also heard a laugh similar to that of an owl, and even detected a mocking tone in it.

"Sir, the Deer-Headed Spirit has appeared."

"Let's go back."

When Crown rushed back, he found that Fu Jin was flying high, croaking non-stop, and dropping a lump of soft matter from time to time.

The deer-headed demon howled angrily, pulled out a gray bone spur from behind, and threw it out with all his might.

"Bang", the bone spur was hit by a bullet very close to the crow.

It was Crown who noticed the monster's movements and came to the rescue in time. If he hadn't taken action, Fujin would have become a dead bird.

He stood on the battlement and symbolically aimed at the Deer-Headed Demon.

He did not continue shooting because he knew that the kinetic energy of the bullet was not enough to penetrate the Deer-Headed Demon's defense.

The eyes of this monster are not a weakness, and they are covered by spiritual light, so there is no point in aiming at the eyes.

Normally, the Deer-Headed Spirit's weakness is its heart, but for the Deer-Headed Spirit that has the ability to resurrect, this weakness is no longer a weakness.

Fu Jin was startled and flew back quickly.

It landed on its owner's shoulder and continued to quack, as if it was cursing at him.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Buster also jumped onto his owner's shoulder to join in the fun, making a low "meow" growl.

The deer-headed spirit took a look at the appearing Clown, then twisted its deer head and looked around, as if looking for something.

It observed vigilantly for a while, then slowly walked towards the city wall.

Clown understood the purpose of the monster's observation just now. It was looking for the murderer who was killed that day.

When the Deer-Headed Demon was surrounded and killed that day, four people were involved.

Now that only one person appeared, the monster did not feel afraid, so it walked forward.

Klauen immediately summoned the Fire Cube, and a metal clone appeared beside him.

The clone was wrapped in a layer of silver-gray metal essence. He held a round iron shield the size of a millstone in his left hand, and a huge bronze sword appeared in his right hand. This outfit was exactly the same as the night he killed the Deer-Headed Demon.

There was also a bronze sword in Clown's hand, and he released the golden armor technique.

The metal clone, the pet, and even Watt beside him all had a faint golden glow on their bodies.

“Stand back,” he ordered.

Watt did not try to be brave but immediately retreated to the back. He knew that facing this monster, his role was extremely limited and it would be considered a merit if he could not cause trouble to the bishop.

Buster also obediently moved to the rear. It had no qualifications to participate in the battle, so it had to stay there obediently.

Fukin flapped his wings and flew high. He didn't believe that this monster would have time to greet him while fighting with its master.

It can sense the strength of a living organism's life magnetic field. Through this method of judging strength, it discovers that the monster's strength is not as good as its master's.

The deer-headed spirit stopped ten meters away from the city wall, inserted a magic totem into the ground, then stretched its head forward and let out a provocative roar.

Oh, here comes new equipment.

Klauen laughed, and his metal clone jumped down.

"Bang!"

The shaking of the earth was transmitted to the city wall, and an obvious depression appeared on the ground.

The metal clone currently weighs more than two thousand pounds. If this mass can hit the Deer-Headed Spirit, it can directly break it into pieces.

The deer-headed beast retreated fiercely, raising its head nervously to look at the city wall. It instinctively felt that it had fallen into a trap.

Even if it can be resurrected, the feeling of death is not good.

Finding that no more enemies appeared, the Deer-Headed Demon pulled out the magic totem, retreated more than ten meters, and slammed the magic totem on the ground again.

The metal clone rushed forward, but this time Crown did not give him bullet time, so his speed was slower than last time.

As he charged, vines that looked like twisted tree roots emerged from the ground, like the devil's hands reaching out from the earth.

Although these vines failed to trip him, they successfully slowed him down again.

By the time he rushed to the Deer-Headed Spirit, the acceleration of the charge had disappeared.

The metal clone fought with the monster, more and more vines entangled him, his movements became slower and slower, and gradually, he became the one being beaten.

Clown narrowed his eyes. When his clone was fighting the Deer-Headed Demon alone, he truly realized how difficult this kind of monster was to deal with.

At that time, four people attacked together, and the monster's vines had to deal with four people. The scattered vines greatly reduced the threat to the third-level extraordinary person.

Now the monster only needs to face one enemy, and its powerful ability to control the situation can be fully utilized.

Klauen released the Source Armor, the Heart Purification Spell, the Golden Light Body Protection and the Bullet Time in turn, and then performed the Giant Bear Breathing Technique.

He gently waved the bronze sword in his hand and jumped down from the city wall.

In fact, he could use Yangyan Jutsu to deal with the Deer-Headed Spirit, but that would be a waste.

In his eyes, what the Sun Flame Technique threw out were drops of sun essence.

There is one more update, probably around 11 o'clock.
