Looking out from the observation port, you can't see anything at all.
Because what came first was the dark mist.
Large bonfires deliberately left outside the barn were swallowed up in an instant, as if they had been swallowed into the belly of a monster.
This is by no means an ability possessed by ordinary mist, but the darkness formed by magic.
Ordinary people who don't know much about vampires think that this kind of fog is an ability that all vampires have.
Those holy warriors knew that this was not the case.
Although vampires have the ability to transform into mist, they will never go anywhere without a dark mist covering such a wide area.
This should be a unique ability of drow vampires.
Because adult drow elves are born with the spell-like ability to cast dark spells.
When they become dark beings, their abilities in this area are likely to be deeply strengthened, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the situation in front of them will arise.
Just an ordinary drow vampire can form a dark fog that envelopes a village.
The legendary drow vampire lord who is still in a sealed state has a legend that shrouds a city or half a country in fog, which seems worthy of belief.
The dark mist moved in a very determined direction, which was the direction of the barn, without even looking at the church.
First, the difficulty of breaking into this kind of sacred residence is far more difficult than that of a barn, especially when it shines with the unique luster of the holy residence, and the dark mist does not dare to get too close.
Yes, the effect is additive.
Second, compared to the chapel, the barn is obviously several times larger and can accommodate more people.
When the dark fog encroached outside the barn, a huge crash followed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every impact was made with all his strength. Even the impactor couldn't help but howl and roar in pain, but after a slight distance, he would hit again without hesitation.
They can't help themselves either.
Stand up gun!
Following Copperfield's order.
A long spear protruded diagonally from the round holes in the lower row of the barn door.
Not to mention experienced paladins, even without them, Copperfield estimated that the vampires would probably drive other creatures to attack the barn tonight, so he naturally prepared elaborate defense measures.
The barn door was further thickened and reinforced, and holes the size of wine glasses were also cut out.
Doing so will certainly weaken the strength of the barn door, but when dozens of round wooden sticks with sharpened heads protrude from inside.
It immediately turned into a super giant defensive thorn wall.
The attackers who had just finished a round of collision did not expect this to happen.
He ran into the gun forest abruptly.
The force of their collision is terrifying, and the damage suffered from them is also huge.
Puff!
The sound of a spear entering the body and cutting through flesh and blood.
Bang bang!
This was the sound of the spear breaking due to the huge impact and force of the impact.
Ah!
Behind the barn door, several militiamen screamed as they failed to hold their spears on the ground and were thrown away. One unlucky child was hit in the nose by the tail of a spear that bounced off, causing blood to flow out on the spot.
Separated by a door, located at the small end of the lever, they are still like this.
You can imagine how miserable those impactors on the other side, the attack end, with the most leverage are.
Even a wooden tip can easily penetrate their fur and penetrate deep into their bodies.
A large amount of blood flowed in along the unbroken spears.
Two of the most ferocious Cormanzo tigers collided and died on the spot.
One of them limped back with a broken spear. Most of the broken spear was still exposed. It would be fine if it didn't collide in the next round. Once it collided, the broken spear would probably be pushed directly into it.
Deep inside the body, it kills it.
There is an owlbear hanging outside the barn door. It is injured but not dead. It is taking in less air and outgoing more air. Without treatment, it is estimated that it will not survive tonight.
After this counterattack, the attack outside obviously stopped.
Although these monsters were driven here temporarily, even if they are exhausted, those vampires will not feel bad.
However, the quantity is limited after all. The battle has just begun and cannot be used up in front of the barn door.
It is estimated that those vampires are circling the barn, looking for new breakthroughs.
They are destined to be disappointed.
The barn is one of the most important buildings in villages and towns without castles.
Not only because it usually stores food that is crucial to the villagers, but also because it is the last refuge for the villagers. Once they find that an enemy is too powerful to attack and the village cannot defend it, they will often choose to hide.
Enter the barn and make a final stand.
This point has been brought to the extreme in Tessel, where the warlords have been fighting for many years.
After these refugees fled to the valley, they still maintained this good custom of building fixed settlements and building large barns first.
This barn is a semi-bunker structure. Most of it is built on a small ridge, and the second half goes directly into the depths of the mountain.
Compared to other places, a frontal attack is the only option.
Soon the barn door banged again.
Only this time, the gun formation had little effect.
Because the ones who hit the barn door were no longer the Cormanzo tiger and the owlbear, but the orangutan who tore down the villagers' wooden doors and used them as shields.
These orangutans appear to be suffering from albinism, with pale hair all over their bodies. They are surprisingly large. Even if they are hunched over, they are more than two and a half meters tall. The most eye-catching thing is their four arms, two on each side.
Only.
The upper pair is obviously much stronger than the lower pair. When walking, the thinner and lower pair of arms touch the ground to help maintain balance while walking, making them look like they are from a distance.
Like a half-horse ape.
With the wooden door shield, the killing effect of those spears was greatly reduced. After just a few rounds of impact, they were already crumbling.
"Retreat!" Copperfield waved his hand heavily and led the soldiers to abandon the gate and retreat to the depths of the barn like a tide.
From the beginning, the barn door was doomed to be untenable.
Not only do the vampires need it to be unable to defend it, but Gavin and the others also need it to be unable to defend it.
It was just a disguise before, taking the opportunity to eliminate a wave of vampires.
Click!
The barn door groaned one last time and crashed to the ground.
Ouch!
Two four-armed orangutans rushed in and threw the wooden bed in their hands. The excited people stood up and beat their chests with their four arms.
Following closely behind them were two four-armed orangutans, three Cormanzo tigers and three owl bears.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Throw the spear, throw it!"
The two four-armed orangutans were a little too excited.
There are new attacks waiting for them.
Bows, arrows and spears were fired at them like rain.
The sharp arrows were fast and accurate, all aimed at weak points such as their eyes.
Although the accuracy of the spear is a little off, it is thick, long and powerful. Once it is shot, it will definitely be unpleasant.
After just one round, they all lost.
The four-armed orangutans were either roaring and trying to pick up the wooden door again, or trying to pull up the barn door to use it as their own cover.
The armless tigers and owlbears curled up into a ball as much as possible.
He neither charged forward to kill nor refused to retreat, as if he was guarding something.
Because that weird black mist, no matter how twisted and clawed its teeth, seemed to have an invisible barrier standing at the door, keeping them out just like it kept their owners out.
What stops the vampires is never the physical gate, but the sacred laws descended by the gods.
Even if the door is wide open, the vampire cannot step in without the owner's invitation.
Deep in the black mist, there was a swaying, thin figure walking out, revealing a pale, thin face.
"Don't shoot arrows, don't throw spears, don't hurt her. She is Mandy. Mandy disappeared a long time ago. Hurry, go and rescue her."
"Stop, you are crazy. In this case, do you think Mandy escaped?"
"Fire arrows, keep firing arrows, kill her, kill her quickly, she has been controlled by those vampires, she will open the door for those vampires."
"You are all crazy, how could you do this?"
Inside the barn, there was a commotion when the little girl appeared.
This little girl is one of their missing villagers.
Those militiamen with a strong sense of justice wanted to rush out to rescue the little girl, but they were held down by the people next to them.
After seeing clearly that the person holding them down was a paladin, his somewhat passionate mind finally cooled down.
When it comes to justice, no one has a better sense of justice than the Paladins. They still insist on shooting arrows, which shows that there is something wrong with the little girl named Mandy.
The arrow-throwing spear took off again.
Whether it was the four-armed orangutan, the Cormanzo tiger, or the owlbear, they all stood up in front of the little girl and protected her safety with their lives.
Rules are dead, people are alive.
Even if it is the sacred rules prescribed by the gods, vampires have found corresponding ways to break them.
That is to use the power of charm to control those people, open the door of your own home, and invite them in.
Especially for collective buildings like barns, it is easier to open the door. All it takes is someone from the village or town to open the door.
This person named Mandy is their door opener.
Under the protection of those ferocious beasts and monsters, who were not afraid of death, the thin and frail Mandy made a gesture of pulling the door open in front of the barn door.
Obviously she did it to the air.
An invisible barrier was pulled open by her forcefully, and the black mist that was originally shut out poured into the barn like a monster, laughing wildly.
The remaining beasts and monsters roared wildly and no longer stood there.
They rushed towards the enemy with great force, causing them endless pain.
The black mist followed closely behind them, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed in front of Copperfield and the others who were waiting for them.
"It's now." Darnell shouted, and four other paladins jumped out from behind with their bodies illuminated with blazing white light, a war hammer in one hand and a war shield in the other.
Buzz!
The holy light cut through the sky and fell into the barn, entangled with the smoke inside, forming a holy white mist that instantly enveloped the entire barn.
Holy residence.
All the preparatory work for this holy residence has been prepared and is just waiting for the final step to take shape.
The reason why I waited until now was to get the vampires into the urn.
If the holy residence is deployed early, the opponent will be very cautious in attacking the barn and will not even set foot in it easily.
There are two types of anti-evil arrays: external and internal.
Externally, it forms a protective circle to resist the entry of evil creatures, especially those summoned evil creatures.
Internally, it also forms a prison, imprisoning those evil creatures and unable to escape. If combined with the last elemental anchor, it is an excellent trap for dealing with summoned demons and devils.
As a native evil existence, vampires cannot be imprisoned like summoned creatures. It still takes a lot of effort to get through and leave, at least for a few seconds - and that is when there is no distraction.
It would be extremely stupid to try when there are enemies, especially powerful enemies, because if you are not careful, you could get yourself involved.
