Watching the ten Valkyries take the children into the sky, Randall slowly closed his eyes and stayed there for a while.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a decisive expression in his eyes.

Back in the hall on the first floor of the clock tower, Randall avoided the remaining children, walked to his friends who were fighting side by side, and said softly: "We need to persist until their next arrival."

Kellogg shook his tail and said, "The tide of corpses has entered the slum, and we are running out of time."

Bourville squeezed the huge wooden pillar in his hand and said muffledly: "Standing here, I can even hear the howling of those corpses."

Carroll suggested: "Maybe I can be a bait again, so I can buy some time."

Randall immediately rejected the proposal: "The corpse tide is too large, and the decoy can't attract too many enemies."

"Then what can you do?"

Randall said: "We blocked all the doors and windows of the bell tower hall without making any sound or light, and then waited."

Carroll wondered: "Block all doors and windows?"

"Um."

"When the Valkyrie landed on the hills, how should we get out?"

Randall pointed to the top of his head: "If we don't go out, let's go up."

"Go up?"

Everyone looked in the direction that Randall pointed, a spiral staircase, along the cylindrical hall wall all the way up, and finally disappeared on the top of the tall tower.

"It won't be long before the tide of corpses will reach this hill. If we choose to use the flat ground outside the door as the landing place, there is no way for us like these to block such a large number of enemies."

"So, we can only choose another place for the Valkyrie to land. On the top of this tower, there is a small roof, which used to be used for bell ringing. Now the clock frame is broken, but the platform is still there. The Valkyrie can Landed there to pick us up."

Kellogg thought for a while and said, "There is a problem...The platform on the top of the building, I have visited. It is very narrow and can only stay at most one griffon at a time. This means that we need a lot of time to get up and down the lion. Buzzard."

Randall nodded: "You are right. This is why I blocked the doors and windows before. This will give us some time. If the tide of corpses breaks through the door, we can still fight and retreat, relying on the terraced terrain. The advantage retreats to the roof."

Carol thought about it and said, "This might work."

Seeing that the others had no more problems, Randall began to divide the work.

"Carroll, Aldenan, and Bourville, you and I are responsible for collecting the supplies and blocking the doors and windows."

"Barbara, you take all the children and tell them not to make any noises and go to the top of the building quietly."

"Kellogg, you also go to the top of the building. You have two tasks. One is to choose a suitable landing place, and the other is to send a signal to guide them to land on the rooftop when you find the Valkyrie is coming."

Soon, everyone started to get busy with their work.

Twenty minutes later, Aldenan's voice sounded in the hall of the clock tower.

"They are here."

Accompanied by a deafening howl, the ground trembled slightly.

Randall hid behind a raised table and made a concealed gesture to the players around him.

A huge shadow enveloped the entire bell tower, and the light from outside the doors and windows was blocked by the shaking figure.

Looking from the gap under the gate, countless feet wandered and wandered outside the bell tower, as if they were looking for something.

Carol lay on the ground and whispered to Randall, "I always find it strange."

"strangeness?"

"These resurrected corpses have no consciousness, but they seem to have a fixed purpose, like..."

Randall added in a low voice, "Puppet."

"Yes, they are puppets. These corpses are like a group of puppets manipulated by people. They first attack places with large populations and weak defenses. After they have grown to a certain level, they attack military buildings or aristocratic residences."

Randall shook his head and said, "If someone is behind these corpses, who is he?"

"No matter who it is, this is not a good thing."

Aldenan pricked up wolf ears and said suddenly, "Listen! It's a ringing arrow!"

Bulville grabbed the weapon in his hand: "Kellogg has seen the Valkyrie."

Randall mentioned the sword: "They came earlier than expected, everyone, get ready!"

Kellogg's signal not only attracted the attention of the Valkyrie, but also caused a complete commotion in the corpses near the clock tower.

Thousands of parasitic corpses screamed towards the gate of the bell tower, and a huge crash sounded across the sky.

Seeing the door that was blocked by the debris teetering, Randall nodded towards Carol beside him.

The two approached the gate, one on the left and the other on the right, and when the gate was smashed open, they chopped the first parasitic corpse into three pieces.

"Don't get corpse blood or minced meat!" Randall picked up the broken corpse with his toes, and then slammed the second parasitic corpse out with a shield.

Aldenan jumped onto the wall of the hall, lifted a half-person-high boulder from the ground, struggling to crush a parasitic corpse that entered through a broken window into meat patties.

Avoiding the black parasites running around on the ground, Aldenan said loudly, "Don't look at the gate!"

Bourville raised the wooden pole, stabbed the parasite corpse who had crawled into the window, and said in a deep voice, "I'm watching it."

Hearing the sound of griffin flapping its wings in the air, Randall lifted his spirits: "They saw the signal, and they will soon reach the platform of the tower!"

Before the words fell, the door that could no longer bear the impact suddenly collapsed. Dozens of parasitic corpses rushed into the hall like a tide, waving the limbs of the parasite and attacking any living creatures they saw.

Randall kicked a parasitic soldier and shouted at the others: "The hall can't be guarded! All retreat to the stairs!"

The group of people retreated while fighting, relying on the advantages of the spiral staircase to fight more with less, trying their best to delay time.

The cries of the griffon came one after another, and Randall knew that every minute of persistence would ensure that a Valkyrie would take away the two children safely.

Finally, Randall and the others retreated to the last step of the stairs, behind which was the small and dilapidated clock tower roof.

Barbara put the last child on the back of Griffin and shouted towards Randall's back: "All the children are gone, it's your turn!"

Kicking a parasite down the stairs, Randall shouted without looking back, "You go first!"

"If you don't leave, I won't leave either!"

Listening to the dialogue on the roof of the clock tower, the Valkyrie Ashley flying in the air exclaimed angrily: "Look down for yourself! It will be too late if you don't leave!"

Randall retreated to the edge of the roof with his shield and glanced down. The scene in front of him made him take a breath.

Looking around, within one kilometer of the bell tower, there are densely packed parasitic corpses everywhere.

They are building up human walls from all directions, looking like ants from a distance, one stepping on the other's shoulders, slowly climbing up the wall of the clock tower, and reaching the edge of the roof.

"Carol! Aldenan! Together with me, weed out the guys who climbed the wall!" Randall ran to the edge of the roof, kicked an enemy who had just climbed down, and then shouted to Barbara. : "Get on that griffin! Get out of here!"

Barbara glanced at Randall, gritted her teeth and rolled over to mount the Griffin.

The Griffin had just vacated, and the panic happened suddenly.

Bourville smashed the head of a parasite corpse, but accidentally splashed blood on his shoulders.

Feeling the black blood burrowing into his skin like a bug, the tauren roared loudly in pain.

He vigorously waved the weapon in his hand, swept across, knocking the enemies in front of him into the air, and then staggered to the ground one by one.

Kellogg was shocked and rushed to Bulville's side, drew out his dagger and wanted to gouge out the black blood.

"It's useless... I can feel those things get into my body..." Bourville panted hard, his eyes were bloodshot, he grabbed Kellogg's arm and said, "Help me A handful of..."

The always calm lizard man showed a flustered expression on his face for the first time: "Listen! You will be fine! Just take you back to the Holy Cleric Army, where there is the best doctor..."

Bourville tried his best to suppress the pain in his body, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Look at me! I can't go back! At least! At least let me go to the Dragon God with dignity!"

Kellogg stood there, and after a while, he whispered, "I understand."

Kellogg removed the previously discovered oil lamp from his waist, and poured all the oil in it on himself and Bourville.

More and more parasitic corpses rushed up from the stairs of the bell tower, screaming and roaring towards the rooftop.

Looking at the tide of enemies in front of him~lightnovelpub.net~ Kellogg first supported Bourville with his body and helped the latter to stand up, then he whispered, "Are you ready?"

Bulville looked down at Kellogg: "You don't need to be with me..."

Kellogg smiled and said, "The journey from here to heaven is long and difficult. You need a companion on the road..."

Bourville closed his eyes quietly and stopped talking.

Kellogg took the flint from his arms.

"For the glory of Dragon God!"

There was a crisp impact, a touch of brilliant red flames.

In the raging fire, the two rushed to the tide of corpses and blocked the exit of the stairs with their bodies. They turned their lives into the last light and completely isolated the darkness from this small high platform.
