"There's a sniper!"
Seeing their comrade's head suddenly explode, someone in the Holy Court team immediately shouted.
The priests carefully looked around.
But it was useless!
Hiding in the dark, Fang Heng reloaded the magazine and aimed at another priest who was purifying the ghouls.
"Bang!!"
Another gunshot rang out, and another priest of the Holy Court was shot in the head.
"D*mn it! He's here again!"
"Quickly think of something!"
In an extremely tense battle and faced with a ghostly sniper, the morale of the entire Holy Court team plummeted. They were unable to concentrate on dealing with a large number of Lickers when there were so many things happening.
After two shots, Shelley had a clear perception of Fang Heng's location.
She looked at the hiding place of Fang Heng not far away.
Although Shelley had already seen Fang Heng, she could not do anything to him!
The distance between them was too far, so she could not attack the opponent.
If the holy cast knights were to go over and capture the opponent, it was uncertain whether they would succeed. The entire team formation would be torn apart first. At that time, the church priests at the rear would have no one to protect them, they would be completely exposed to the sharp claws of the ghouls...
Bang! Bang Bang!!
Every 30 seconds or so, there would be a gunshot. It was like the bell of death where the life of the priest was taken away.
The atmosphere on the side of the Holy Court was extremely heavy.
They had already vaguely sensed that the sniper's target was the priest who was dispelling and purifying the ghouls!
In the dark, Fang Heng's expression was calm.
The Holy Court was truly extraordinary.
Even under such circumstances, the strong sense of conviction and mission allowed the priests of the Holy Court to maintain an extraordinary dispelling and purification stance.
The advantage was it was easy to aim at them. The priest who carried out the cleansing stood still and he could easily kill him with a headshot every time.
The disadvantage was that the number of Lickers was still slowly decreasing.
Bang!
[Hint: You have killed the priest of the Holy Church. You have received 10 contribution points for the mission, 12 vampire reputation points, 32 survival points, and Tier 1 evolution crystal*1.]
After killing the twelfth priest, who was performing the purification, with one shot, Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
The drop rate was so high!
The drop rate of a priest's Tier 1 evolution crystal was over 50%!
It greatly increased the efficiency of leveling!
This was good news.
Fang Heng was a little happy, but he calmed his mind and continued to aim.
Let's waste it together!
Fang Heng expressed that he was not panicking.
As the number of priests decreased, the Holy Court's originally slow purification speed became even slower. Even the holy light armor that replenished the holy cast knights in front of them was stretched to the limit.
Shelley was extremely anxious.
She also realized that if this continued, it would be a slow death for them.
But she had no other way.
Shelley's heart gradually sank to the bottom.
Was she going to die here today?
"Judge, don't give up. We still have a chance. Follow us later. We will do our best to make a gap to escort you out of here."
Shelley turned around and glared at the team captain of the holy cast knights. "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you asking me to give up on my companions?"
The holy cast knights could escort her out by force, but what about the priests behind her who were moving slowly?
Their movement speed was too slow. It was impossible for them to escape.
It was equivalent to abandoning all of them!
The team captain, Captain Wall, slashed the Licker that was attacking him with his sword and moved closer to Shelley's side, he said in a deep voice, "Judge, we have to let the bishop know what happened here. One of us has to leave! You are the best choice! Your life is worth more than ours!"
The two priests of the Holy Court beside him also shouted, "Judge, don't worry about us. Please make our sacrifice meaningful!"
Shelley frowned.
She knew that Wall was right!
If they fought with their lives on the line, there was still a chance to escape from here.
If they delayed any longer, they would all be wiped out!
"Protect Judge Shelley and evacuate. Let's go!"
Wall directly made the decision on behalf of Shelley. He ordered the holy cast knights to charge forward!
In an instant, the formation that they had maintained was broken!
Almost at the same time, the Lickers charged into the rear of the priest team and started killing.
[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a priest of the Holy Church. You have obtained 10 mission contribution points. You have obtained 12 vampire reputation points. You have obtained 32 survival points. You have obtained a Tier 1 evolution crystal*1.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a priest of the Holy Church...]
For a moment, Fang Heng's vision was flooded with a large amount of information.
"Big win! Big win!"
Seeing the Holy Court knights launch their final counterattack and run for their lives, Fang Heng put away his sniper rifle and sneered.
"You want to run now? It's a little too late."
He didn't control the Lickers. Instead, he asked them to speed up the hunt for the abandoned priests of the Holy Church.
On the other side, after breaking through the encirclement of the Lickers, Shelley suddenly felt a sense of hope.
Not many!
The number of ghouls on the periphery was really not that many.
In addition, most of the ghouls were attracted by the priests at the back, so they did not chase after them.
"Let's go!!"
Wall saw hope and shouted. He used his big shield to push away the ghouls in front of him, using his battered body to open a path to escort Shelley away.
Listening to the screams of the abandoned priest team, Shelley's heart was bleeding.
This was a team that she had spent more than ten years nurturing!
And today, she had no choice but to abandon them all!
Shelley gritted her teeth and followed the holy cast knight team in front. "I will avenge you... In the name of the Holy Light..."
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks.
The group of holy cast knights in front of them slowly stopped.
What was going on? They were almost at the exit, why did they stop moving?
"Wall! What happened!"
Wall stood in front of the group, his face pale and he did not say a word.
Shelley walked forward.
Her eyes revealed astonishment.
Zombies!
They were zombies of the undead!
It was unknown when, but a dense horde of zombies appeared in front of them!
The horde of zombies was blocking the entrance of the exhibition hall!
Zombies were not as difficult to deal with as Lickers, but with such a large number of zombies blocking the entrance, it was impossible to break through in a short period of time.
"Chi Chi Chi..."
Just as they were hesitating, the sound of 'Chi Chi Chi' came from the back of the team.
After the Lickers devoured the priests behind them, they chased after them again!
What should they do?
Shelley's face was ashen.
In the distance, Fang Heng stood in the shadows far away. He put away his sniper rifle and made a gesture.
"Chi Chi Chi!!"
The zombie team and the Lickers swarmed toward the Holy Court!
Shelley and the last batch of knights were instantly engulfed by the zombie clones...
