It wasn't surprising that both of them were so surprised because at this moment, the cliff behind the coast had been shaved into layers of what looked like giant stairs. Montgomery didn't notice anything unusual earlier because he wasn't too familiar with Endless Port.
However, Angus was stationed here, after all. Previously, his attention was focused on the flattened buildings and only after he returned to his senses did he realize the abnormality behind him.
This place should have been a steep cliff, but now, a stair-like ravine had been dug out.
However, these 'stairs' were five to six meters tall and didn't seem like they were meant for humans to walk on at all.
As for the top part, it was even polished into a smooth slope.
Apart from that, little girls with dragonfly-like wings could be seen flying around in the air from time to time. They looked around and around as if they were busy building something.
What's going on?
Angus was sure that this place was still a cliff yesterday. In just one night, not only was Endless Port flattened, but this place also changed drastically?
How did these people do it?
However, this doubt only lingered in Angus' mind for a few moments. In his opinion, since this overlord could build a flying magic fortress, it wouldn't be surprising for him to build these things.
This wasn't the first time he heard that mages could move mountains and fill seas. Compared to the inconceivable rumors, this scene before him was still acceptable.
"Sir Overlord, what exactly is this …"
At this time, Montgomery also came to his senses, and could not help but look at Zayen with a puzzled expression.
He had to admit that this Great Knight Commander was a cunning one. Logically speaking, they were on the same side, so he should address Jenn as' Sir Bishop '.
However, Montgomery was obviously playing a trick on him. Judging from Jenn's series of actions, he might have his own beliefs, but he might not necessarily believe in the teachings of the nine saints.
Montgomery had seen his fair share of such people, so he might as well address him as' Sir Overlord '. This way, at least this temperamental young man wouldn't find trouble with him.
As the saying goes, don't slap a smiling face. Since he wanted Jenn to help him, he naturally had to be flexible.
"Oh, Great Knight Montgomery, please don't laugh at me. I'm just building a line of defense to block those annoying undead creatures."
Hearing Montgomery's question, Zayen answered with a smile.
To be honest, when Jenn first saw this Grand Knight, he was rather surprised.
Jenn had also heard of Grand Knight Montgomery's reputation. He was a hero in the Church of Holy Light.
He started out as a member of the Pegasus Knights at the age of 20, and rose to fame during the battle against the Church of the Mother of Chaos. Not only did he defeat the guardian army of the Church of the Mother of Chaos, but he even killed six of the Church of the Mother of Chaos by himself.
These Guardian Bishops weren't ordinary people. Even though none of them were Legendary powerhouses, the Order of the Mother of Chaos was a cult that worshiped the Evil Gods of foreign regions. They didn't use magic or divine spells. Instead, they used the Evil God Spells that were passed down from ancient times.
These Evil God Spells were so strange that even the demon kings in the underworld wouldn't dare to face them.
Even if it were Zayen, if he were to go up against these high-ranking clerics from the Ancient Cthulhuism Order, he would probably just backstab them instead of foolishly rushing up to fight them head-on.
For instance, when the Church of the Mother of Chaos cast a projection to devour the entire city, Jenn used the Shadow Blade to open up the Shadow Plane and lure the existence of the Shadow Plane to fight against Nicholas's stomach projection instead of attacking them himself.
What he was afraid of were the mysterious ancient Evil God Spells.
Although there seemed to be no difference in the effects of Evil God Spells and magic spells, in fact, there was a huge difference. It was just like how water and mercury looked similar, but drinking a mouthful of water and drinking a mouthful of mercury were completely different.
And these were the guys that Jenn didn't dare to face head-on, and could only stab them in the back. Yet, Montgomery actually fought against six of them and killed them all.
What was worse was that he was just an ordinary Holy Knight back then, and not a Divine Knight like a certain someone. This was simply heaven-defying.
And after that, Montgomery also fought in nearly a thousand battles, big and small, on the battlefield, and even his name was in many of the final battles against evil forces.
Therefore, Grand Knight Montgomery was considered a low-level existence in the underworld. Many Demons at least knew his name and knew who he had ruined.
But that was all. Compared to his cheap big brother, Klein, Montgomery was still far behind.
One had to know that Klein was the biggest natural enemy in the Demon Realm, so when he led his people to the underworld, the first reaction of the Demons was to turn around and run. It had to be known that it was the Lower Street, the natural home of Demons, and even angels wouldn't give a damn if they came.
In the end, in the face of Klein's million-strong army of Demons, they ran faster than rabbits, which was really surprising.
And because of this, after Klein fell and turned into Demons, the entire underworld was extremely happy, and they almost set off firecrackers for a hundred days to cheer.
From this, it could be seen that Klein's reputation in the underworld was very high, which was also why so many Demons were willing to work for him after he turned into Demons.
Compared to him, Montgomery was considered to be at the bottom of the class, but it was still better than being at the bottom.
If one only looked at this Holy Knight's battle record, it was easy to imagine him as a Holy Knight with a resolute face and a stubborn personality.
But the reality was not like this. This Grand Knight Montgomery was not at all as difficult to deal with as Jenn imagined. On the contrary, he looked more like a friendly businessman who always had a smile on his face.
If he was a little fatter and had a big belly, he would really look like a rich man.
In Zayen's opinion, this type of person was the most difficult to deal with. They were polite and well-mannered, and had a sense of propriety. They would not be like those fanatics who would kill an entire family just to show the firmness of their faith.
In fact, these people already had their own beliefs. They did not believe in the teachings of the Nine Saints, but what they thought was the Nine Saints' teachings.
In their opinion, the Church of Holy Light was only a representative of the Nine Saints' teachings, not the Nine Saints, nor did it represent the belief in the depths of their hearts.
Just like the sun, I don't say that the sun will cause drought, nor do I say that without the sun, there would be no life. Anyway, I only know that I feel comfortable basking in the sun, so I like it.
What you say about the sun is your own business, and it has nothing to do with me.
Just like now, the way Montgomery looked at him was not as strange as the other believers of the Church of Holy Light. Instead, it was very calm.
When other believers saw him, they would either be afraid, hateful, or impatient.
Only this Grand Knight Montgomery treated Zayen purely as a friend he was communicating with. Just this state of mind alone made Zayen feel that he was stronger than Klein.
Of course, this was not because he looked down on his cheap big brother.
"These lines of defense can stop the undead creatures?"
Montgomery did not know what Jenn was thinking. He curiously turned his head to take a closer look at the strange lines of defense. He frowned and thought for a moment, but in the end, he shook his head.
With his understanding of the undead creatures, this line of defense would not be of any use at all. As long as the undead creatures rushed over, they would be able to break through.
One had to know that the number of undead creatures was endless. If the first wave couldn't be wiped out, there would be a second wave, and if the second wave couldn't be wiped out, there would be a third wave.
In Montgomery's experience, the best way to deal with the undead creatures was to build high walls and use the geography to offset their advantage in numbers.
This was the only way, and it was also the reason why Frozen Fang was able to resist the Undead Army for so long.
However, they could only resist the undead creatures and couldn't eliminate them entirely. The leader of the Undead Army was too powerful, and even they couldn't annihilate him.
"Just because you guys can't stop them doesn't mean that I can't."
Hearing Montgomery's question, Zayen smiled and shrugged.
"But only I can stop them. Don't even think about it."
"You …!"
Upon hearing Zayen's words, the soldiers behind Montgomery immediately glared at him. This young man is too arrogant. He said that we can't stop the undead creatures, but he can. Isn't this the same as telling us that we will definitely lose when the undead creatures attack?
Because of this, when they heard Zayen's words, someone immediately wanted to refute him indignantly.
However, Montgomery gestured with his hand and stopped them.
He knitted his brows and asked.
"Sir Overlord, do you have any basis for saying that?"
Montgomery didn't ask casually because he had studied Jenn and knew that this young man's biggest characteristic was that he was resolute and wouldn't give up even when he was in the right.
Based on this, Montgomery could infer that there must be a reason for what he said, which was why he dared to ridicule you.
Because if you dared to refute him, he would play you to death.
And if you dared to attack him, he would slaughter your entire family.
This is what it means to travel the world with a reason …
"Of course I have a basis."
Hearing Montgomery's question, Zayen nodded.
He had intended to give Montgomery some pointers, and since this Great Knight agreed to it, he wouldn't hold back anymore.
Of course, the more trouble he could cause for that cheap brother of his, the better. If he could infuriate him to death, Jenn would surely throw a banquet for three days and three nights of celebration.
But it was a pity that the dead couldn't die from anger.
"Great Knight Montgomery, you must be familiar with the military rules of the Undead Army for so long, right?"
"Of course."
Montgomery was very proud of this. No matter what, he was the number one Holy Knight of the Holy Church, so he was very familiar with the Holy Church's military tactics. He was very good at it, and he also had his own unique points.
If not, how could he possibly sit in this position and be known as the commander of the allied forces?
"Sometimes, it's not a good thing to be too familiar with something …"
After saying that, Zayen smiled at Montgomery.
"Apologies, I have something to do. I'll take my leave first."
After saying this, Zayen clasped his hands behind his back, turned around, and left leisurely.
Looking at his back, Montgomery furrowed his brows and remained silent.
After a few moments, his expression changed abruptly.
"Let's go back!"
"Great Knight Montgomery?"
Upon hearing Montgomery's words, Angus was stunned for a moment. He also saw Montgomery's displeased expression.
Could it be that Zayen said something that made Grand Knight Montgomery unhappy?
However, Montgomery wasn't in the mood to explain. Instead, he lifted his head and bowed to Jenn.
"Thank you for your reminder, Sir Overlord!"
After saying this, Montgomery turned around and left without looking back.
