vs 28 Accidental magic
"Boom!"
The sound of a violent explosion was accompanied by a shaking of the drawbridge, and the pungent smell of gunpowder filled the castle gates after the explosion.
The familiar voice of "Zizi" and the flickering sparks appeared in the ranks of the noble rebels!
"It's dynamite, goblin dynamite!"
The archers of the watchtowers on the walls shouted at the top of their voices.
"Magician!"
"We need a magician!"
"Earthen wall defense... earthen wall defense..."
"Hold up the shield!"
Eden, who was at the front line of the city gates, his ears were buzzing with the sudden explosion, and the fighting instinct put up his shield and hid behind the horse.
The crisp sound of "click" was particularly obvious in the "whirring" in his ears, and a heavy earthy smell also came, and at the same time, a constantly rising earthen wall instantly flooded Eden's sight.
"Boom... Boom..."Before Eden could react, a violent explosion followed, and the huge blasting force shook the newly raised earthen wall.
When the dust completely settled on Eden, he realized how dangerous he was just now!
"Sir, Colonel Abner has an order, let's retreat!" the adjutant shouted in Eden's ear, patting Eden on the cheek vigorously to bring him to his senses.
"Retreat?" Eden only heard these two words, and he subconsciously retorted, "Where else can we retreat?" His eyes were red from the battle just now, and his thoughts were filled with Her Majesty's order to 'hold the city gates'.
The adjutant had no choice but to break Eden's head and make him look in the direction of the school yard inside the gate...
The earthen wall erected by the magician at the gate of the castle collapsed with a series of uninterrupted violent explosions, and after the smoke and dust cleared, there was no garrison at the gate. The guards on the walls were busy fending off arrows and turning their heavy crossbows and light head catapults.
"My lord, success is just around the corner!" in the temporary command post of the noble rebels, the nobles shouted excitedly to Weiz Burst, "soon, the glory of the ancestors will return to us." ”
"Is it true that the castle guards only have five squadrons?" Weisz-Burst's heart was more excited than anyone else, but he suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked everyone around him rigorously.
"There's nothing to worry about, even the king to whom they are loyal now doesn't know whether it's life or death. ”
"We just killed so many people, didn't we just rush in, how can you hesitate?"
"If you don't dare to go in, we'll go in first!"
"You can go in and try it. Weiz Burst glanced disdainfully at the family representatives gathered around him, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Merrot Tyrester in the corner, "Could there be a problem?"
"The information from Elok is too vague, and we..."
"The vague information shows that they can't control the situation, and that's exactly what we want, we need to create more chaos in the chaos!" Someone interrupted Merrot, the old man who was no longer as prestigious as he had been before his exile.
"Opportunity is right now, my lord... As long as you cross this gate and successfully form a council of nobles, you will be able to rule over all the nobles in Crewe, and your family will once again be the most dazzling presence in Crewe. ”
"So many people have died, hesitate!"
Weiz Berg was inclined to go straight to the castle, and his inquiry was only the result of the innate fear of royal power in his heart, and the incendiary language of these people around him made his heart beat rapidly, and his mind could not help but fantasize about his posture of presiding over a meeting of nobles.
"You can try to attack first..."Merrot Terest, looking at the excited expressions of the people around her, looked at the army that was about to pass on the drawbridge in front of her, and said: "But our rear road must not be cut off, we must first order the troops to block the attack of the garrison." ”
"Rest assured, Lord Merlot, we are only half an hour away from victory. ”
"Our flanks are safe, and while the Handle Corps looks well equipped, most of them are new recruits, and our warriors are the most elite in Crewe. ”
"Then attack!" Weiz Burster shouted excitedly.
"Hum... Hum..."
The sound of trumpets also sounded in the ranks of the noble rebels after the defensive line at the gate of the city gate had broken up.
"Rush over!"
"Charge!"
The order to charge was given to the commander of each squad in front of him at the same time as the horn sounded.
The clamor of shouts and killings accompanied by the brilliant magic that fell on the city walls spread over the area near the city gates, dense but rhythmic footsteps crossed the drawbridge, and groups of noble rebels rushed into the city gate while defending against the attack of arrows with shields, some of them rushed towards the city walls, and some of them rushed towards the school grounds.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The sound of musket fire echoed as the noble rebels stormed the castle gates, but the noble rebels were prepared, and they successfully fended off two rounds of fire with their magically covered shields.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
But the musket fire did not stop after two rounds of fire, and the sound of the fire never stopped, forcing the noble rebels who stormed the castle gates to stop.
"Don't be afraid, charge!"
"Close the distance, close the distance with your shields!"
The aristocratic rebel front commander shouted hard and personally pushed forward with his shield against his shield to encourage the others. Soon, the halted column continued to advance in a steady state.
At the top of the tower of the castle school knights' station, Erin Fei'er was wearing a castle standard light armor, staring coldly at the noble rebels who were rampage at the city gate, and said to Colonel Abner, the acting commander of the castle knights beside him: "Are the castle mage towers ready?"
"The news came five minutes ago that everything was ready. Abner replied respectfully.
"Let this farce end as soon as possible. Erin Phier replied indifferently, stretched out her hand to look into the space next to her, and a magic wand that shone with a blue cold light appeared in her hand after the space shook.
"Ignorance is the biggest mistake!" said Eileenfier, whispering softly, her staff drawing a dizzyingly complex circle in the space ahead.
Not long after, as the circle in front of her took shape, the magical pillar of light of the castle mage tower flashed with a blue light that everyone couldn't help but look up.
The light was dazzling, and in an instant, it engulfed all the buildings in front of the castle.
Abner, who was closest to the queen, felt as if the temperature around him had plummeted suddenly, to an unbearable level. The blinding light over the castle made him instinctively raise his head, and the next moment he... He had a look of disbelief on his face, as did everyone around him.
I saw that in the sky that shone with a dazzling blue light, an unimaginably huge magic circle connected to the magic circle in front of the queen, and connected with the huge pillar of light emitted by the castle mage tower.
The already cold weather became even colder in this instant.
As if in the blink of an eye, and as if a long time had passed, an unbearable cold descended on the castle gates...
The smooth spears and steel swords in the hands of the soldiers froze at a speed visible to the naked eye, the originally bare gravel pavement at the city gate formed a layer of ice that shimmered with cold light, and at the same time, the advancing aristocratic rebels suddenly found that their feet had become as heavy as a thousand catties, and when they lowered their heads, they found that their feet were inlaid in a thick layer of ice at some point.
"Dangdang" everyone subconsciously hit the ice with the weapons in their hands.
"Raise your shield!
"Magician... We need a magician here..."
"Leave the ice alone and watch out for musket fire. ”
The rebel front-line commander wanted to stop his subordinates' stupidity at the moment, but it didn't help... As he shouted, there was a flurry of gunfire.
Hot blood was thrown on top of the transparent ice, and the white ice was soon infected with a striking red!
"Magician, we need a magician..."
The rebel front-line commander continued to shout at his flag bearer, but before he could finish his words, he was crushed by a bullet...
The gunfire continues, and the plummeting temperature continues to drop...
It was as if the ice that appeared out of thin air was thickening at a speed visible to the flesh, and in the midst of the gunfire, the cold quickly covered all the areas near the city gate, and all the noble rebels near the castle gate were frozen in it without exception.
Under the astonished and frightened gazes of the castle knights and guards, the unbridled cold snap continued to spread in all directions after attacking the rebels...
Erin Fei'er looked at the frozen noble rebels at the gate of the city with indifferent eyes, and said to Abner beside him: "The knights can't just watch the show, there are at least two thousand rebels outside the city walls. ”
"They will be crushed in two hours, and the body of Weiz Burstt will be nailed to the most conspicuous part of the city wall. Abner came to his senses, and he looked into the queen's eyes in awe.
"My ramparts don't hold the corpse of a filthy man like Weiz Burst, and he doesn't even deserve to be hung on that old mulberry tree outside the city. Eileen Field's performance at this moment was not at all as weak and gentle as she had shown before, and her cold tone was more piercing than the plummeting temperature, "He only deserves to stay in the stinky ditch outside the city with rats and insects!"
...
Inside the makeshift command post in front of the drawbridge, everyone, including Weiz Burst, was visibly unresponsive to what was happening near the castle gates.
The dazzling pillar of magic light above the castle still existed, and it did not mean to fade in the slightest, and the frost visible to the naked eye was slowly spreading around the ice, and the terrible ice layer of "Ka Ka Ka" also spread to the front of the drawbridge with the spreading cold air.
"Foot!"
"Look at our feet!"
The exclamation made Weiz Brew subconsciously lower his head, the brilliant magic light curtain covered a complex magic circle, and when the image of the magic circle appeared in Weiz Burst's eyes, a piercing chill that made him soft ran from his spine to the top of his head, this was fear... Fear from the heart.
"Why is there here... There would be—" Weiz-Brew seemed to have forgotten what he wanted to say, he tried hard to express it but couldn't, and his body subconsciously retreated.
"It's not a pre-programmed magic trap. A nobleman who studied magic had a serious face, and he looked at the huge magic circle floating in the sky, feeling the rules of magic that he had never felt before, "This is a spell that has been recorded in any book. As he spoke, he cast a magic barrier to dispel the circle on the soles of his feet, "Don't get too much hope out of me, I can only dispel it briefly." ”
"Retreat as soon as possible... We didn't fail!" Merrot-Terretus didn't seem to panic, and after the circle was dispersed, he shouted, "With the power in our hands, we can completely control the seventh block, if Your Majesty is really seriously injured in the assassination or... Well, neither the Prime Minister's Government nor the Ministers of the National Intelligence Office would want any turmoil in Crewe at this time, and they would certainly negotiate with us. ”
The old man said these words quickly, so fast that he himself was a little out of breath.
"That's it!" Weiz Burst, who was overwhelmed by failure, seemed to grasp at a life-saving straw.
"Now the men who command us to retreat. Merrot looked at the chaotic situation outside, extremely disappointed with Weiz Burst's performance at the moment, he looked at a calm middle-aged nobleman beside the young viscount, and said, "Tell our warriors that we have not failed, and stabilize the battle line and exit the square..." ”
Merrot looked directly at Weiz Burst, although he was a little disappointed by the other party's performance, but he was more puzzled why such a person would be elected by the nobles to become a leader...
The old man's calm demeanor was contagious to the others around him, and most of the people in the command post had been involved in many wars, and they were not as flustered and overwhelmed as the young Weiz Burst.
Under Merlot's gaze, Weiz Brew was first escorted out of the command post by the two nobles, and then the calm middle-aged man beside Weiz Brewster issued several military orders to the herald beside him in succession.
"We need someone to stay behind and hold off the pursuit from the castle side. After giving a few orders, the middle-aged man looked at Weiz Burst and said, "My name is Terrence, I used to be the lieutenant of the Marquis of Pombo, and now I am a retired veteran, I am sorry to introduce myself in such an environment. ”
Merrot's whole face was full of wrinkles when he listened to the middle-aged man's words, and when the middle-aged man's words landed, the wrinkles on his face stretched out while his eyes narrowed, "Without such an environment, maybe we will never be able to know each other." He suddenly showed a humorous smile, "So... Lord Terrence, do you want to cut off those who stay?"
"Would you like to?"
"It's my pleasure. ”
