"Why are you in such a hurry? If you're so capable, keep arguing with the old man."
Ginnell put the card box away, put his hands together, and began to pray.
"The Holy Light protects us."
Holy prayer hymn!
Holy Hymn!
Two golden rays with different ripples covered the entire camp, forming two light shields, one large and one small.
The injured adventurers looked up, and Graeme immediately recognized Ginnell.
"It's him!"
"The companion next to Graeme, who was sharpening his sword, asked."
"Greem, is this someone you know?"
'
Gram struggled to speak for a long time, but in the end, he could only manage to utter the sentence that he was acquainted with the elders in the tribe.
Even if Graham wasn't very bright, he knew that it was completely unbelievable to say that Ginell knew his ancestors.
The power of sacred prayers can block the strange noises emitted by the insectoids, and the effects of sacred hymns can slowly heal injuries and dispel the undead aura emanating from the insectoids and beasts.
Ginnar maintained the gesture of prayer, continuously communicating with the power of the Holy Light.
The good news is that the camp isn't very large, so the amount of holy light consumed is negligible for him; he just needs to keep praying.
The bad news is that he can only ensure the balance of the Holy Light's flow when communicating with it.
Mavis only glanced at him a few times before immediately understanding Ginell's current state.
As someone who had been on the battlefield, he knew very well what kind of state Ginell was in.
Mavis pointed to one of his squire knights.
"You, go find that orc named Graeme, and together we'll protect Ginnar!"
'
"Now that insectoids and insectoid beasts have appeared, who knows if some kind of monster like an insectoid archer will appear."
"Remember, you absolutely must not let the monsters interrupt Ginnell's current state!"
""
The squire knight obeyed and left, taking with him the burly Graeme, who stood to either side of Ginnell, their eyes scanning the surroundings warily.
"Ginnell, hang in there!"
Graham said gruffly.
"The distress signal has been sent to Silver Star City; they'll be there soon!"
Ginnell's mouth moved slightly.
Very good, Mavis knows what she's doing.
One was his own squire knight, and the other was Graeme; at least his safety was somewhat guaranteed.
Graham needs no introduction. The title of "squire knight" is simply a job title; in essence, he is someone close to Mavis, comparable to a loyal old butler.
If someone were to stab them in the back, these two would definitely have a level of trust that is above average.
With them there, the remaining time was enough for Ginnell to end his prayer state.
The followers of the Holy Light held the base of the camp, and the adventurers below, who had been shocked by the power of the insect people and insect beasts, immediately changed their expressions.
The roles of offense and defense have now shifted.
Let's get them!
With the healing spring, the adventurers became much bolder in their attacks. Several thieves and assassins even teamed up to use chains and nets to trap an insectoid and drag it into the camp.
Their intentions were good, but the result was that after the insectoids were dragged in, they made a violent noise and were all turned to ashes under the holy light.
Enraged by the insectoid's scream, one of the assassins kicked the ashes away, thinking that he hadn't been injured when capturing it, but instead got ambushed like this on the way back to camp.
However, this also confirms one thing: the Holy Light's effect on monsters still applies to the insectoids.
If you want to conduct research, you absolutely must not do so in places where there is holy light.
Reinforcements from Silver Star City arrived, but this time they weren't led by adventurer teams; instead, they were armed and well-equipped Silver Star City officials.
Behind this formation was a small team of adventurers whose weapons and clothing were not uniform.
The official henchmen are responsible for the frontal assault, while the adventurer squads are responsible for the flanking battles, or simply cleaning up the battlefield and doing some cleanup work.
The Church of Holy Light also came.
A troop of elite knights, their weapons and armor appearing to be even better than those in Silver Star City.
Not only are there no visible signs of forced forging and splicing on the exterior, but it also shines with a golden luster even in a dark and damp place like a dense forest.
Upon seeing the holy light in the camp, the leading priest of the Church of Holy Light immediately understood and ran to Ginnell's side in a few steps.
"Good job, brother."
The pastor thanked Gianna earnestly.
"Leave the rest to me."
,
As soon as he finished speaking, the pastor also made a prayer gesture, communicating that the Holy Light had descended with power.
A sacred and valiant poem!
If prayers and hymns serve a protective and restorative function, then hymns of valor are genuine offensive support.
The blazing holy light wrapped around everyone's weapons, like torches that could burn monsters to ashes.
The Holy Valor Poem's auxiliary bonus not only increases the damage of the Holy Light attribute, but also does not affect the battle aura damage of other players, making it quite useful.
Of course, the price for its effectiveness is that this move is very costly, not to mention that the priest also buffed everyone inside and outside the camp.
There was no sweat on his forehead, and he still had a smile on his face.
At least Gianna can't do it that easily right now.
After finishing his prayer, Ginnell couldn't help but glance at the pastor beside him a few more times.
To put it in high emotional intelligence terms, this is a powerful figure who keeps a low profile, and is definitely on par with that powerful nun.
To put it bluntly, this guy is a complete idiot, and his attire is that of an ordinary Holy Light Priest.
Let alone a support player dominating the entire match, even if you let the opponent use the power of holy light to condense a holy sword and start a fight, the opponent probably wouldn't even need to roll up their sleeves.
The pastor smiled and looked at Genelec, and said.
"Brother Genelec, Sister Eve asked me to pass on a message to you."
"You have received a revelation from the Holy Light, so you can go to church today."
Ginnell was taken aback for a moment, then a happy expression appeared on her face.
The meaning is simple: Ginnell has achieved the maximum score and met the mission objective, and the reward the nun promised him is finally coming!
"Thanks, brother."
Ginnell and the priest exchanged a blessing, wishing each other the protection of the Holy Light, and then, with Graeme and Mavis's squires, they went to find another place.
Graham scratched his head.
"Ginnell, should we ignore him?"
'
"There's no need to take care of him," Ginell said. "If something were to appear that would make him stop praying, he'd be better off taking care of the rest of us."
It's a pity, Silver Star City clearly had a contingency plan for the changes in the Dark Forest.
The moment the distress call was sent out, it was as if they knew what level of monster had appeared. They immediately dispatched an official team of fighters to fight, with a high priest from the Holy Light Church also in charge.
If I want to test the effects of the cards I just got, I'll have to find another opportunity.
