In the middle of the ruins after the fire, on the battlefield at the crossroads of Mount Ariel, a tragic positional offensive and defensive battle is being staged...

The formations of orc warriors and Imperial soldiers collided with each other, shouting and screaming, screaming, roaring, and the interplay of weapons and armor mixed together to play the music of death;

Magicians, priests, and other magic classes poured out their brilliant spells, some protecting friendly warriors, while others harvested the lives of their enemies.

"Boom"

In mid-air, the rolling stones thrown by the trebuchets of both sides carried a long line of smoke and smashed into the position's magic shield, exploding beautiful and deadly sparks.

On the front line of the northern center of the crossroads line, where the fighting was most intense, Pedi was fighting alone at the front line, and at his feet, at least ten orc soldiers had fallen.

At this moment, Pedi was already surrounded by orc troops, and the nearest imperial army column was at least ten meters away, he was too aggressive!

However, the orcs also paid a lot of price for the siege of Pedi, and even their mid-lane formation was disrupted, causing heavy casualties to the orc warriors who were facing the Imperial soldiers head-on.

"Roar"

"When"

The orc army suddenly set out with a roar, and the trajectory of the war hammer in Pedi's hand was forcibly blocked, and in the moment when Pedi was stunned, the orcs around him instinctively felt the fighters, and the years of training made these warriors subconsciously wave their tomahawks and slash at the vital parts of Pedi's body.

But Pedi didn't look at these seemingly ferocious attacks, he didn't even use his holy power, his eyes were staring at an orc berserker who was full of red 'rage'.

And the berserker's eyes with murderous intent were also staring at Pedi, his attack was a beat slower than that of a normal orc warrior, but faster than any ordinary orc warrior...

I only heard a "bang", and a pitch-black big sword in the hand of the orc berserker was picked up from the bottom up, using the other orc battle axes as a cover, and picked the ring armor under Pedi's shoulder armor, if Pedi didn't react again, then, he was likely to be pierced by the orc berserker's big sword in the next second, and the ring armor was pierced through the ribs,

At this moment, Pedi moved.

"Bang"

"Click"

A dull thud accompanied by the sound of a broken sternum,

Pedi chose to hedge with brute force, and his body seemed to turn into a golden flash of light at the most dangerous moment and rushed towards the orc berserker, and the thick and hard shoulder armor slammed directly into the orc berserker's chest, causing the opponent to fly upside down and knock down a large number of orc pawns who were besieging him.

"Quick, go around. The orc officer shouted in beast language.

And Pedi, who had just stabilized his figure, was a hammer on the backhand of the orc pawns who surrounded him.

"Hula"

"Ahh

"Bang..."

First of all, it is a tooth-softening sound like a leather rubbing iron that pierces the air.

Immediately afterwards, the miserable screams and the muffled sound of the war hammer hit sounded at the same time, but I saw that several orc soldiers who took advantage of the situation to besiege were smashed in the chest on the spot by a backhand sweep from Pedi!

On the other side, the orc berserker took advantage of this gap to stand up leisurely, and when Pedi's eyes were about to fall on the orc berserker, the orc ordinary soldiers around him immediately surrounded him and blocked Pedi's sight, they wanted to use their flesh and blood to block Pedi's attack.

"Phew" Pedi's eyes flickered slightly, and then he let out a long breath, and for a moment he regarded these ordinary orcs as his official opponents, because their courage and determination had earned Pedi's respect.

"The power is with me!" Pei Di prayed silently in his heart, and then in the next moment, as the orc pawns rushed up again, the holy power around his body doubled and his body flashed...

A beautiful 'tactical dash'!

Almost in the blink of an eye, the orcs blocking Pedi's path were cleared...

On the ground, more than six orcs were dismembered on either side of a deep straight ditch, and crimson blood poured out like a torrential rain as Pedi stabilized his body.

"Click"

The silver-white two-handed hammer smashed into the orc berserker's left shoulder, and the anger that the other party had just gathered disappeared without a trace as Pedi's hammer fell.

"Burst"

"Burst"

At the moment when the orc berserker fell, a strange sound reached Pedi's ears, and then, Pedi instinctively sensed a hint of danger, a danger that could hurt him.

Without thinking much about it, and before he had time to think about it, Pei Di pushed away the orc soldiers who rushed up, and jumped towards the direction of the Empire-Army Formation... And at the moment when his body jumped, near the area he was in just now, one after another thorns with a green and cold light rose from the ground.

However, Pedi is not out of danger, on the contrary, it is even more dangerous!

A "whoosh" sound sounded behind Pei Di,

I saw that a spear carved with silver-white runes all over its body shot straight at Pedi's back from the rear of the orc army.

It's surprisingly fast with a spear, and it carries this very special energy.

Judging from the trajectory of Pei Di's landing at this moment, he could not avoid this blow.

This is a blow that has been gathering momentum for a long time!

Pedi's battle instinct made him aware of this extremely dangerous blow, and the shield of the 'Holy Shield Technique' gathered around his body for the first time, although it was too late, Pedi still turned around and tried to raise the war hammer to resist.

However, at the moment when Pedi turned around, the strange silver spear was less than half a meter away from his chest!

This was indeed a desperate blow, but Pei Di did not despair, the golden holy power around him suddenly turned extremely white at this moment, and the shield of the 'Holy Shield Technique' was also transforming from an energy body to a substance at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In addition, at this moment, a strong earthy smell entered Pedi's nostrils, and in the blink of an eye, an earthy yellow magic shield appeared on Pedi's side.

"Ding"

"Click"

A few undetectable sparks disappeared in a flash, the magic shield was broken almost instantly, and the 'Holy Shield Technique' that was not fully formed by Pedi only dissipated in the blink of an eye.

However, this is enough,

Because of the inertia of the landing, Pedi had already dodged the vital part of the spear attack.

"Ahh

The spear changed course after a spark rubbed against the shoulder armor made of Pedy's steel, and an Imperial soldier was unfortunately pierced through the right shoulder, which was a penetrating injury, but it did not hurt the vital point, so it was not life-threatening.

Pei Di, who fell to the ground, subconsciously turned his head to look at a scratch the size of a little finger on his shoulder armor, and his palms couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and secretly said: It's dangerous.

Immediately, Pedi turned his head sharply to look at a high slope behind the orcs, where an orc general in thorny armor was also staring at him coldly.

"Are you alright?" Collier walked over from the group of magicians in the rear, and at the same time, he was surrounded by his own soldiers.

At this moment, on the frontal battlefield in the middle lane, the Imperial soldiers are counter-charging the orcs, and it is the order of the front-line commander Burkton, who makes good use of the brief chaos that Pedi has created in the middle of the orcs.

"I'm fine. Pedi lifted his visor and breathed heavily, "It's just a little off-the-beaten." ”

"Your Excellency, you were like a knight just now..."

"I know what you're trying to say. Peddy interrupted Cowlier, "But my soldiers need courage, the courage to fight against several times the enemy. ”

"Now, your soldiers have regained their courage and determination. ”

"Alright, my friend, what you should do now is get back to your team, the soldiers need your spell support. Pedi put down his armor and patted Cowlier on the shoulder vigorously, and then strode towards the front of the formation.

The battle continues...

This time, Pedi did not continue to advance, but also fought in the forefront position,

'In a disadvantaged battle, the soldiers need to feel the presence of the commander at all times, so that they will fight without sparing!' is what Pedi's knight instructor has repeatedly taught Pedi.

...

In the endless battle,

It was getting dark, and soon it was completely dark, and the Cutay Overseers did not choose to continue their attack at night.

The first day of fighting is over,

The total casualties on both sides amounted to more than 2,000.

In the command post of the stronghold at the Crossroads of the Empires, Pedi was dressed in a regular military uniform, sitting and resting next to the fire, chewing a piece of hard jerky in his mouth, and occasionally taking a sip of the stream with a little smell of blood, and beside him, Hu Congeden was carefully wiping and cleaning his equipment and weapons.

"It's already raining lightly outside. Count Anse walked in through the door, he took off his cloak and sat down beside Pedy, "It's been a very cold night tonight, and it's almost winter. ”

"None of the soldiers have any problems, right?" asked Pedy.

"Don't worry. "Count Anse took off his gloves, "We should be worried about tomorrow's battle now, if it continues to rain tomorrow, then, the orc priests will become terrible." ”

Peidi was stunned when he heard this, and then remembered the ability of the orc priests, they use elemental power like magicians, but the methods used are different, the sacrifice is the control and use of existing energy, such as water, fire, earth, etc., and the magician likes to use the composite magic composed of basic spells.

Hearing the conversation between the two commanders, the Tamil Chief of Staff also approached and said: "We may be able to ask for help from the Brill Heights, I heard that almost all the magicians in Klan City are in the Brill Heights, and with their help, the orc priests are not a problem at all." ”

"Brill Heights?" Pedi whispered, "I remember who reminded me that Duke Ron was going to send reinforcements from Brill Heights?"

"It's me. "Tamil is taking a step closer again," Duke Ron meant to use the long-range strike capabilities of the Twak light cavalry to carry out a large-scale surprise attack. ”

"When?" asked Pedy.

"I don't think it's going to be tonight. "Lord Ron's intentions are obvious, he doesn't want to have a tough battle with the orcs in Brill Heights..."

"Are you saying that Duke Ron wants to deliberately expose the encirclement at some point in a certain period of time, so that the orc army can break through? Pedi quickly thought of the key and unwittingly interrupted Earl Anse's words.

Tamil shrugged, "A great note, isn't it?"

"But it will increase the pressure on the Seventh Combined Legion. Pei Di frowned, this time the battle plan had been made public at the top of the legions on the 29th, after all, there was no need to hide it at this time.

"So, you need to wait for a perfect time. Earl Anse added.

Tamir looked out of the command post, "But I'm afraid that this rain will continue to fall, and at that time, the muddy road will limit the power of the cavalry of the Twak Command, so I suggest asking Duke Ron directly for the assistance of the mage troops and the paladin troops." ”

Pedi frowned and looked at Count Anse.

"There will be no big war at all in the current Brill Heights, and Duke Ron will not refuse our reasonable requests. Count Anse said.

Pedi lowered his head and thought for a few seconds, then took a bite of a piece of jerky and said, "Since the Brill Heights can't fight, then, it should be reasonable for me to have both their mage troops and the help of the Twak Light Cavalry?"
