“It’s so hot…”
Jonah took off his armor, revealing his well-trained upper body.
He looked towards the dome hall and saw that the torch's flame had gone out.
Under the blazing sun, neither the Eternal Night nor the Plague could get close to the Black Castle.
Under the unprecedented triple demonic tide attack, Black Castle actually survived extremely easily.
Of course, there are problems.
The radiation range of the [Small-scale Natural Disaster Generator] is not large, and it can only surround the Black Castle and some nearby small fortresses. In other places in the entire Black Forest, the battle to resist the magic tide is still going on, and judging from the news received from Jonah, it is not optimistic.
Secondly, this scorching sun is also a natural disaster.
The dry earth and the deadly high temperature. If the mages had not collectively prayed for cooling spells and barriers after midnight last night, the soldiers of the Black Castle would probably have been killed by the sun sooner than by the monsters.
It is now late at night on the third day since the arrival of the Blood Moon, and the duration of the Demonic Tide is almost over, or rather, people expect it to be over soon.
Although the frost has faded, the plague and the eternal night are still very difficult to deal with. All the major fortresses have engaged in a tug-of-war to prevent the eternal night and the plague from infiltrating the fortress's defenses.
"You should be thankful that you don't have to deal with winter wolves."
Beside Jonah, another wizard sighed.
Without the Winter Wolves' frontal attack and direct damage to the fortress buildings, the damage that the Plague and Eternal Night could cause was limited. However, many fortresses had already been damaged by previous Winter Wolves' attacks, giving the two an opportunity to take advantage.
"Grey Tower has already prepared a response. They will use the Eternal Blazing Sun's saturation attack on the severely affected areas, hoping to slow down the advance of the demonic tide. According to estimates, we will lose one-fifth of our land this time."
Jonah said in a deep voice.
Eternal Blazing Sun also requires the life of the mage to release it, similar to the Torch, but in the current situation, the key is to minimize the advancement of Eternal Night and Plague.
"What about him?"
The wizard asked Jonah, and he was naturally referring to Lu Ban.
"I don't know, maybe he's eating."
Jonah thought about it and walked towards the dining area.
Sure enough, he saw a group of people surrounding Lu Ban.
The hero who defeated the Lord of the Demonic Tide was eating the food in the bowl with big mouthfuls. He did not look like a big shot at all. Instead, he looked like a starving ghost who died of starvation in his previous life.
"Are you really that hungry?"
Seeing this, Jonah couldn't help but ask.
"I need to replenish my nutrition, do you understand?"
Lu Ban ate the bread and felt the nutrients in the food being quickly converted into his own energy. This feeling was extremely wonderful.
When the crowd dispersed, Lu Ban stood up.
"How is it going?"
He asked Jonah.
"It's still the same. A war of attrition. We just hope that this demonic tide will only last three days."
Jonah felt helpless.
"It will only last three days."
Lu Ban said firmly.
He did not tell Jonah that the system countdown he saw was three days, and now there were less than a few hours left until the end of the magic tide, so the wizard just thought that Lu Ban was comforting himself.
"How are you?"
Jonah looked at Lu Ban. The serious injuries from yesterday were no longer visible. He checked Lu Ban's wounds. Those wounds were wrapped by some special plants and healed very quickly. Jonah had never seen such a recovery speed before.
In his understanding, only the chosen ones, that is, those who are born under the watchful eyes of God, can receive such a gift and gain extraordinary power.
As for the specifics, Jonah did not ask. When others asked him about it, Jonah simply regarded it as a miracle.
For today's soldiers, instead of questioning Lu Ban's secret and causing anxiety, it would be more effective to leave everything to the high and mighty gods and create an atmosphere of miracle.
"It's all right now."
Lu Ban patted his chest with his hands.
"By the way, regarding the strategy to fight the demonic tide, I think we can perhaps make some improvements."
He said again.
"Improvement?"
Jonah didn't quite understand.
"Although the Eternal Blazing Sun is very effective, it has too much loss. If we miniaturize the Eternal Blazing Sun, or use some method to create light similar to the sun, and use it as ammunition to launch it into the demonic tide, would it be more effective?"
Lu Ban gestured.
What he said was not just wishful thinking, but knowledge gained through the Pale Heart of the Winter Wolf.
If an ordinary person comes into contact with this thing, his brain will be overwhelmed by the amount of knowledge and be seriously polluted.
But there is nothing wrong with Lu Ban.
Although the mumbling had not yet finished and was still nagging in his ears like an old mother, Lu Ban found it acceptable.
From these mumblings, Lu Ban roughly understood a few things.
The cause of the demonic tide is indeed the blood moon. Only when the blood moon descends do these monsters have the power to descend on the Kingdom of Night. And the blood moon is the result of pollution by a certain great being.
The reason why monsters are afraid of sunlight is also related to the blood moon. When the light of the blood moon is obscured by other stronger lights, the monsters will quickly lose their vitality and become very vulnerable.
The effects of the Spirit Torch and the Eternal Blazing Sun are actually similar. They both create strong light to weaken the blood moon's light to fight monsters.
The last and most important point.
That great being was sealed on the moon of the Kingdom of Night.
Unlike the Earth, due to the relationship between the Earth and the Moon's revolution and rotation, the Moon always faces the Earth with one side, and people can only see one side of the Moon.
But here in the Kingdom of Night, due to various conditions, the other side of the moon will rotate to face the side of the Kingdom of Night under certain circumstances.
And that side is the sealed body of that great being.
The red moon was dyed red by His blood.
These monsters were all created by the evil god who was half asleep and half awake after the great being was sealed.
Originally, these evil gods attacked each other and rejected each other's existence, so only one demonic tide would appear.
But as the will of that great being gradually revived, these wills gradually merged, leading to the emergence of the triple demonic tide.
In the end, perhaps the remaining eleven demonic waves would attack the Country of Darkness at the same time.
"…So, when facing monsters, preventing the light of the blood moon from shining on them is the most important thing."
Lu Ban was suddenly inspired.
"Or, if you can do it, you can also create a huge barrier to completely block out the moon. If the moonlight cannot reach the ground, the revival of those monsters will become extremely slow."
He said.
"Block the moon?"
Jonah thought about it and felt that Lu Ban might really have something wrong with his brain.
"Either we build a giant cage and cover the entire planet, and then we can completely avoid seeing the moon."
Lu Ban suggested again.
"...I will tell Huita what you said."
Jonah couldn't imagine such a situation, and he remembered something else.
"By the way, Birmingham wants to see you. He seems to be standing guard in the watchtower."
