Chapter 377 A last-ditch battle
"What?" Lin Tianlang couldn't believe his ears. Unexpectedly, the Elf King actually wanted something from him.
"Right now, Crescent City is encountering the biggest disaster in history. The leader who leads the monsters to attack the city is Augustus of the demon clan." Aitras said seriously: "And his goal is the life crystal. ."
Atlas had already said these words to Alana and Asta just now, and now he repeated them to Sirius and Sherry.
"So it's the demons who are behind this again?" Lin Tianlang clenched his fists.
"Well, that's right. The orcs also came together, and they were obviously instigated by the demons." Aitras nodded and said, "There are too many enemies. Only with the power of our Crescent City , there is no way to stop them."
"Father..." Alana pursed her lips and gently grabbed Atras's arm. Next to her, Queen Estha also had a sad face.
"I have asked Nelvi to go outside the city to ask for help in person, but we don't know when the reinforcements will return, and we don't know if we can hold on until then." Atras sighed softly. As the king, he is the backbone of everyone, and he is trying his best not to show a pessimistic expression. But reality is like this, and we have to face it.
"My dear, is there no other way?" Asta asked softly.
"Yes, we still have one last hope." Atlas raised his head.
"What is it?"
"Holy Bell Tower, Your Majesty, do you want to talk about Holy Bell Tower?" Sherry couldn't help but ask.
"That's right, Crescent City and even the patron saint tower of Crescent Forest, the Holy Bell Tower. If we can activate it, we have the power to change the situation." Atlas looked at Sheris and nodded. explain.
"Once the holy bell rings, the power of the entire forest will be awakened. As long as we have the help of the forest, we will not be afraid no matter how many monsters there are."
"In that case, father, what are we waiting for?" Alana said anxiously.
"It is not that easy to activate the Holy Bell Tower. The energy required to activate the Holy Bell is very huge..." Aitra paused: "According to the records, the key to activating the Holy Bell is the life crystal."
"What? Father, if that's the case, then we..." Alana bit her lip, but was interrupted before she could finish her words.
"No!" Atras said in an extremely serious tone: "There are monsters everywhere in the Crescent City now, and August's goal is the life crystal. If he rashly takes the crystal to the Holy Bell Tower, if he is attacked by August on the way, If you volley, it's all over!"
Atlas's tone was unprecedentedly solemn.
"Your Majesty, I can take the crystal to the Holy Bell Tower!" Sheris stood up and said firmly.
"Neither can you." Atlas shook his head: "I don't know if August has any way to detect the location of the life crystal. We don't have the capital to gamble. No matter who carries the crystal out of the Crescent Temple Outside the protective circle, if you encounter August, you will be doomed. In the Crescent City, none of us can be August's opponent." Aitras said.
"So, we can't go to the Holy Bell Tower with the Life Crystal."
"But father... didn't you say that the Life Crystal... is the key to activating the Holy Bell?" Alana gritted her teeth gently and asked.
"Yes, and no. Besides the life crystal, there is actually another way." Atlas sighed, and at this time, he turned his attention to Lin Sirius next to him.
"The reason why the Life Crystal can activate the Holy Bell Tower is because the crystal contains enough energy to activate the Holy Bell. But in fact, as long as there is an energy supply of similar intensity, the Holy Bell can be activated even if it is not a Life Crystal."
Since just now, Lin Tianlang has been listening by the side. Although he didn't speak, he knew exactly what Aitras wanted to express.
The life crystal needs protection, and now that the crystal is the target of the demons, it is too obvious, and it is really not appropriate to take it with you rashly. So, to be able to have the majestic energy similar to the life crystal, but not attract too much attention for the time being... isn't that a reference to the rainbow gemstone on his body?
That day, at the hunting ground, Lin Sirius personally felt the power of the Life Crystal. Although it felt completely different from the Rainbow Gem, the two were similar in energy intensity. Although the life crystal is called a crystal, it is actually just a type of gem. Lin Sirius thinks that there won't be much problem even if it is called a life gem, it's just a different name.
"I understand, Your Majesty." Lin Tianlang said, "If this is your request, I accept it."
There was no need for Atras to explain specifically, Lin Tianlang already understood what his request was. It's nothing more than letting yourself take the rainbow gem to the Holy Bell Tower and activate the Holy Bell.
"What?" Sheris was a little confused.
"I can use the rainbow gems on my body instead of the life crystal to activate the Holy Bell." Lin Sirius glanced at the blond girl next to him and said.
"You have rainbow gems on your body?" Alana asked with her eyes wide open and her face full of surprise.
"Let's not talk about this now. I will explain it to you when I have the opportunity." Lin Tianlang replied.
"So what I have to do now is to take the rainbow gem to the Holy Bell Tower and activate the Holy Bell, is that right?" Lin Sirius looked at Atras next to him and asked.
"That's right." Aitras nodded, and then sighed: "But, Lin Sirius, can you really accept it?" Aitras looked into Lin Sirius's eyes, but he was a little concerned. Can't bear it.
"I accept, Your Majesty." Lin Tianlang nodded firmly.
"It's really dangerous because you have to go alone," Atras said.
"No, Your Majesty, I'll go with him!!" Sherry said anxiously next to her.
"No!" Atlas categorically rejected Sheris: "You are an elf. Compared with humans, the characteristics of elves are much more conspicuous. And you are a woman. Now those orcs are pretending to be powerful, using the prestige of the demons They are robbing our people everywhere..."
When saying this, Atlas clenched his fists tightly: "If you go with Lin Tianlang, it is very likely that you will attract unnecessary attention and cause more unnecessary trouble. Lin Tian Wolf, a human race acting alone, may actually be safer."
"Haha, yes, and Sherry, you need to be even more eye-catching. It would be bad if all the orcs are attracted." Lin Sirius said with a smile.
"B-but..." Sherry bit her lip and clenched her little fists tightly. She looked at Lin Sirius with worry on her face.
"It's okay, don't worry, trust me." Lin Tianlang said.
"Child, listen, I didn't mean to take advantage of you, and it is indeed dangerous. So I can't order you to do this. It is your choice whether to accept this request or not." Aitras said.
"I accept this commission. Your Majesty, since you said this is the only way to break the situation at present, then we must fight for it. It is better than sitting here and waiting to die. So, please leave it to me!" Lin Tianlang patted his chest. explain.
"Well. At present, the main focus of the demons is still on snatching the life crystal. So next, the Crescent Temple will soon become the target of attack. We will try our best to contain more for you and drag them here to avoid They influence your actions," Atras said.
"Well, I understand." Lin Tianlang nodded and replied.
"Then please."
"Don't worry, I won't let you down. Time waits for no one, so I'll leave now." Lin Tianlang said, then turned around and prepared to leave. But before he took a step forward, the blond girl called him from behind: "Classmate Lin Tianlang!"
"What's wrong?" Lin Tianlang turned around and looked at the beautiful but worried face of the blonde girl.
"Be careful and come back safely!"
"Well, don't worry!!"
Lin Tianlang grinned and left quickly.
"Soldiers!! Reinforcements will arrive soon. We must hold on here as much as possible!! In order to protect the Life Crystal and our home!!" Etras looked at his guards and shouted loudly road.
"Protect to the death!!!" the guards stood up and shouted, boosting their morale. The protective array of the Crescent Temple is the last line of defense and the last fortress. There is no way out from now on, everyone is ready for a last-ditch fight.
"Alana, the safety of you and the crystal is the most important thing. I don't know how long the soldiers and I can resist the temple, so you must hide in the underground holy spring." Aitras looked at Alana , said, and then looked at Sherry next to her.
"Sheris, you come with Alana. Please, please help me take care of her."
"Your Majesty, please don't worry." Sherry nodded and said.
"Father……"
"Let's go, Your Highness Princess." Sheris said to Alana.
"it is good."
The two people ran back into the hall, then activated the mechanism to enter the underground holy spring, and hid in the underground holy spring.
"Queen, as for you..." Atras looked at his wife Esta. This queen has no intention of backing down.
"I'm not going anywhere, I want to be with you." Esta shook her hair, took off the crown on her head, and took out the elf bow at the same time: "Don't forget who I used to be. ."
"Okay." Atras smiled, then took out his Elf Blade, turned around, and faced the front. Not far away, a billowing smoke was coming towards the temple.
"Crescent Temple is right in front, come up!" Augustus sneered lightly, and then shouted loudly.
"Ouch!!" "Hohohoho!!"
Hundreds of monsters rushed toward the Crescent Temple, forming a black torrent.
"Everyone!! Kill me!!!"
“Drink ah ah ah ah!!!”
Holding the sword in his hand high, Atras and his men bravely faced him.
