Chapter 2042 Crossfire
When moving in this fortress, Alyssa would not show too much aggression, mainly because she found that there were actually people living here, and there were quite a few of them.

If we meet some indigenous people with whom we can communicate, perhaps we can get some information from them.

But Alyssa knew very well that she couldn't be polite to the cultists.

Even though Alyssa doesn't have any true God's attention, there are still religions, and there are quite a few evil cults that cheat people out of their money.

It's nonsense to reason with them. Physical elimination is always the most reliable method.

So when Alyssa learned that this group of people were cultists and were opening boxes that might contain treasures, she immediately decided to launch a surprise attack.

The sound of energy weapons is very faint. Only the slight whistling of the charging coil can be heard at the moment of firing. The speed of the bullet is basically equal to the speed of light. As long as you aim, it is impossible to dodge.

Laser beams, ion beams, plasma balls, and energy beams of various colors hit him directly on the head.

They had totally unprepared for the sneak attack, and the group of cultists were surrounding the pulpit and taking turns using crowbars to pry open the boxes, which was equivalent to turning their backs to Alyssa and the others and exposing their weaknesses so they could attack them at will.

A row of cultists fell to the ground on the spot. After hearing screams, the rest of the cultists realized that they were attacked. Turning around, in addition to seeing densely intertwined energy beams, they also saw Benben's three-meter-tall golem walk in from the gate in two clangs.

"Go ahead, stupid guy, use shrapnel!"

Sanafia, who was still lying on Benben's back, waved her little fist, and the slide rail on Benben's shoulder began to move. Two quadruple rocket launchers were lifted onto his shoulders, and then fine white smoke came out.

A series of explosions then struck the dazed cultists, knocking them to the ground.

Shrapnel is different from high-explosive shells. The difference is that there are steel balls inside...

The steel balls blown apart by the explosion spread in all directions at the speed of sound, followed by a series of crackling sounds, and layers of sparks appeared on the nearby metal floors and walls.

Looking at this description, it seems that there would be no survivors after a round of firepower, but this is not the case.

The smoke dispersed slightly, and the first thing that could be seen was a clear line of magical light. Many people seemed to be wrapped in a soft, glowing 'eggshell'.

The raid and the rocket fire did not seem to cause as much damage as expected. Alyssa took a quick glance and saw less than twenty people lying on the floor. Not all of them died on the spot. Some of them were struggling to cast some spells, apparently trying to heal their injuries.

This seemed quite unscientific to the people on Alyssa's side. Didn't they see what kind of protective clothing they were wearing? Besides, even if they were wearing protective clothing, there should be no survivors under the attack of the personnel-killing bomb. How could flesh and blood be able to withstand hot weapons?

For matters related to magic, we need to seek help from experts. Aldea was also watching the situation over there. She said:

"It's the Entropy Shield. Sure enough, a demon has granted them divine power."

Alyssa had never heard of such a thing as entropy shield, but one thing was certain.

Cult members are also human beings, and if they are killed, they will die.

Although they withstood a round of attacks, it does not mean that Alyssa and her team's attacks were useless.

"Keep firing!"

In that case, increase the output.

The lethality of individual energy weapons is actually relatively low. Unless facing a completely unarmored target or a continuous attack, it is generally not fatal. The biggest feature of this weapon is that it does not ricochet, so it is suitable for use in narrow areas and ships.

The magic defense used by the cultists could actually withstand the steel balls scattered by the explosive bombs, but Alyssa and the others immediately discovered that the shield had no resistance to energy weapons.

So magic is confusing. It can stop a steel ball traveling at the speed of sound, but it cannot stop a laser beam.

This is actually determined by the characteristics of the spell. Most defensive spells focus on defending against physical attacks, while defense against energy attacks uses special protection against energy damage. The distinction between the two is very clear, unlike the protective suit worn by Alyssa, which has a protective effect against both physical and energy.

So Alyssa immediately changed her attack strategy from strafing to concentrated fire attack. In just a few seconds, several more people were lying down.

And these few seconds gave the cultists time to react.

They immediately slid under a large area of ​​metal seats nearby. Energy weapons had poor penetrating power and could not penetrate the thin layer of metal seats.

"Aim at the enemies trying to get close and concentrate your fire. Be careful of counterattacks!"

These guys are quite agile and can use spells to protect themselves, and of course they can also use spells to fight back.

Alyssa immediately saw energy beams of different colors coming back from the cultists. Although they were scattered and had not formed a large scale, she still needed to be careful.

"The scorching rays are not a big problem. Your protective suits are capable of defending against them. But be careful of the green ones. They are probably strong acid arrows. Are your protective suits resistant to strong acid?"

"of course not!"

After all, the people who designed the protective clothing would not have thought that someone would wear it to face the acid, and this is not a situation that can be encountered frequently on the battlefield or in the void.

Alday was on the communications channel when she spoke, letting everyone know that the green thing flying over was not to be touched.

The distance between the two sides at the beginning was actually quite far, which was beyond the range of spells. Since the opponent was able to counterattack, it meant that it had advanced to a distance of nearly 30 meters, which is a distance that most spells can reach.

They moved quickly and nimbly, using metal seats as cover as they moved closer, and seemed to have found a way to defend themselves against laser beams.

Alyssa noticed that when some of the cultists on the move were hit by laser beams, a translucent shield-like object would appear. It felt more like the laser beam was absorbed than blocked.

"It's protection against fire damage."

The killing power of laser beams is actually high temperature. Of course, it can be blocked by the spell of protection against fire damage. Even weaker spell of endurance elemental damage can be effective.

Alyssa didn't want to engage in close combat with these guys. God knows what weird abilities these cultists have.

So Alyssa ordered a change in the attack method. Everyone raised their guns and a row of rifle grenades were fired out with muffled sounds.

The shrapnel and shock waves of the explosion would be blocked by the entropy shield, and the purpose of the rifle grenades was to blow up the rows of metal benches that the cultists used as cover.

The cultists who were blown up had no time to move before they were immediately targeted by fire again. Their protection against fire damage also had a limit, and would automatically collapse when the damage absorbed reached a certain threshold. After a round of concentrated fire, several cultists were beaten into sieves.

But this does not make people feel at ease, because the number of the opponent is still more than twice that of Alyssa and her team.
