National Games: Hang up from the zombie apocalypse

Chapter 3344 Choice

"Lord Hel! Quickly!"

Hel's pupils contracted sharply as he looked at the protective barrier right in front of him. He used all his strength to completely shatter the sacred barrier outside his body, which was already on the verge of collapse!

"broken!"

"boom!!"

The sudden burst of holy light illuminated a five-meter radius around them, revealing the true forms of two Nether Hunters hidden in the shadows. They were immediately repelled by the focused fire of the Oracles within the protective barrier.

Hel, having lost the barrier's protection, was exposed to the high concentration of death energy from the underworld. He stumbled and flew toward the sacred barrier with all his might, while the surrounding death energy continued to frantically penetrate his body.

boom!

Hel fell inside the barrier.

"Quickly! Heal him!" Bishop Maxim shouted. "Activate the portal! Return immediately!"

Caleb was utterly terrified.

Hel's face was deathly pale, and an aura of death emanated from his body. Several Oracles gathered around him, continuously casting holy spells to alleviate his injuries.

Even the tenth-tier Oracle Herl has turned into this state?

Caleb thought that Adam's matter had been successfully reported to the kingdom and that the sky over the city of the Holy Eagle would finally clear up. But when he turned around, it was even darker.

"Bang! Bang bang bang!!!"

what! ?

Caleb was lost in thought when he suddenly heard a loud crash. Startled, he looked up and his eyes widened in terror.

Outside the sacred barrier, countless Netherworld Hunters emerged from the shadows, launching inverted cross-shaped attacks around the barrier.

The sacred barrier trembles violently every time it is attacked.

Inside the barrier, the backs of the city church oracles were already soaked with cold sweat.

Judging from the current attack frequency, there are at least one or two hundred Nether Hunters lurking in the shadows surrounding the Sacred Barrier!

No one spoke; the surroundings were eerily quiet. The only sounds within the barrier were heavy breathing and the priests' synchronized incantations.

Caleb sensed something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "It's been three minutes already, why hasn't the Reversal Descent finished yet?"

"Insufficient energy in the barrier channel."

In the silence, a priest responded, "At this rate, we have at most two minutes left."

Caleb breathed a slight sigh of relief; at least he could get out of this hellhole in five more minutes.

"In two minutes, the sacred barrier will completely give way."

"what!?"

Caleb's expression changed drastically.

What do you mean?

Are they all going to die here?!

“Meaningless resistance,”

Looking up, Caleb noticed Adam slowly approaching them from outside the sacred barrier.

Adam's gaze swept over the bishops, his tone tinged with pity, "The God of Shadows is willing to give you a chance to pledge your allegiance. Are you willing to accept it?"

"Fool! What God of Shadows! Adam! You've been corrupted by the power of the Underworld!"

An oracle shouted sternly, "Wake up!"

"Corruption? Ha, it is you who are corrupted by the so-called god." Adam looked coldly at the crowd. "I will count to three. Anyone who wants to live should accept the blessing of the god of shadow and step out of the barrier."

crazy?

Step outside the barrier? Or expose yourself to the aura of death?

Even if they weren't torn to pieces by the Netherworld Hunters outside, they would definitely die in the raging Netherworld aura.

The church members looked at Fang Heng, their faces turning deathly pale.

"Adam, stop! Even if you kill us all, what then? With the city church bishop dead, all the regional churches will come to investigate thoroughly. Can you kill the people of the regional churches? Can you kill a member of the divine race?"

"one."

Adam looked at them coldly and began counting on his own.

"Crack!"

As Adam began to count, the surrounding darkness surged toward the sacred barrier, causing cracks to appear on it and a series of soft cracking sounds to emanate from it.

Everyone's expression changed drastically.

not good!

Adam was able to control the power of death in the underworld!

"two……"

The cracks in the barrier spread rapidly, almost covering the entire outer barrier, as if it could shatter at any moment.

Everyone stared intently at Adam.

No one can be sure how much of Adam's words are true and how much are false.

But one thing is certain.

Adam really has the ability to kill them all here!

"No! I don't want to die!"

Unable to withstand the terrifying mental pressure, one of the oracles gritted his teeth, shouted, and stepped out from behind the sacred barrier.

what! ?

Caleb's pupils contracted as he was shocked to discover that the Oracle, who had left the barrier, was unharmed and exposed to the underworld environment.

The intense aura of death seemed to be emanating from him?

not dead! ?

Caleb felt a surge of hope and immediately ran towards the outside of the sacred barrier. At the same time, more than a dozen other oracles, unable to withstand the pressure of death, fled from within the barrier.

"three."

"boom!!!!"

Caleb heard a sound of a defensive barrier shattering behind him.

Looking back, the violent aura of death instantly shattered the sacred barrier, raging towards the church members within it. At the same time, a dense swarm of Nether Hunters emerged from the dense aura of death, frantically attacking and devouring the church members.

In less than half a minute, there was complete silence behind him.

Caleb felt his heart pounding wildly, and he forced himself to turn his head away, refusing to look at the horrifying scene behind him.

“Very good, you have made the right choice. No matter what happened before, from now on, I hope you will be the most loyal followers of the God of Shadow.”

"Don't even think about betraying the God of Shadows, or you'll suffer worse than death," Adam said calmly. "Now, I need a letter of recommendation from the bishop himself."

……

three days later.

Since the city lord of the Holy Eagle City fell seriously ill, Bishop Maxim of the city church also announced that he was going into seclusion and handed over his affairs to a subordinate priest.

There were rumors circulating in the city that something was going on within the church.

But soon, the rumors vanished overnight.

Meanwhile, Adam had already arrived in Naxi, the capital city of the empire, carrying a letter of recommendation from Bishop Maxim.

The largest capital city of the Eastern Empire.

Fang Heng and Zane attached themselves to Adam.

The development of the underworld has temporarily reached a bottleneck.

Simply relying on sheer numbers, level 8-9 battle spirits are finding it difficult to defeat the vast number of high-level underworld creatures, thus limiting the expansion of the Netherworld Fusion Channel.

In addition, the spiritual world has recently encountered several oracles who came to investigate.

Although Fang Heng's vampires swiftly destroyed his spirit with ruthless methods, Fang Heng had already sensed unease.

We are getting closer and closer to exposing the risks to our mental well-being.

We need to speed things up.

After taking control of the entire Holy Eagle City, Fang Heng immediately ordered Yaqian to come to Naxi City, hoping to find a breakthrough there. (End of Chapter)
