Chapter 305: Requiem for the Town of Light
Holy See, Eudora lifted the curtain, starry eyes looked at the sky, dark clouds rolling, red light appearing from time to time. It's a complete picture of a storm coming and a big war coming.
A warm white light erupted from her hand, soothing the restless bright unicorn. The mountains towering on either side of her front loomed into her sight.
At this moment, the front team stopped, and a Templar in golden armor rushed to her and knelt down on one knee, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the front is about to reach the destination valley, but there are traces of the activities of the dark elf black mage in front of the entrance, and His Majesty the Cardinal is appeasing the souls of the sacrificed Bright Blue students in front of him." ”
Hearing that the reason why the troops stopped was because of this, Eudora frowned silently and said, "I know, go and inform our crescent priest, the column will change into a square team, I have a hunch that there will be an ambush of the fallen ahead." ”
"Yes"
The Templars retreated respectfully, not forgetting to inform the team of priestesses behind them to speed up.
At this time, five hundred meters ahead, the Holy See team formed a circle, and nearly 200 Yaolan students were lying on the ground in the center, their robes soaked red with blood, and they couldn't see it...
Their souls, and even flesh and blood essences, were sacrificed entirely in this ritual, and were not even used to be taken away by the Cursed Sect.
When the surviving Yaolan students saw this scene, they either wept bitterly or sighed. The middle and low-class cadets, led by Toby and Joule, wanted to follow the Holy See forces for revenge, but more, led by Grover, still wanted to leave here.
'Mercy' cardinal clasped his hands together, his expression was reverent, his mouth was silently praying something, the holy white light radiated from him, and soon the white mist of souls visible to the naked eye appeared on the corpses of the students, they all had a little appearance before death, under the illumination of this white light, their expressions gradually changed from hideous resentment to calm, slowly rose into the sky, and gradually disappeared before touching the dark clouds.
The dead were finally laid to rest, and the old cardinal looked up at the sky, followed by a long sigh.
"Under the Cardinal's crown, the Silver Knights are ready to charge!" Scott, the chief paladin, walked up to him respectfully, bowing slightly.
The cardinal looked out into the wide valley ahead, and at the end of his line of sight, thousands of skeletal warriors and skeletal archers were waiting for them, and in a trance, there were many fallen elves behind them.
"Then purify them together," the cardinal looked up slowly, the white light scattered around him swaying on the paladin's resolute face.
"It is incumbent upon you to annihilate evil!"
......
More than 2,000 silver knights lined up in a sharp sword, and the Templar captain Scott took the lead with the sword, all of them dressed and solemn, facing the dense skeleton soldiers in front of them.
Behind them, more than five hundred priestesses wearing white veils wrapped in their heads and graceful figures also began to chant the magic of shining light, and hundreds of balls of light slowly rose and gradually became huge, taking the lead in shooting at the skeleton soldiers five hundred meters away. With a loud rumbling sound, like boiling water bubbling, the snow-white skeletons erupted with dazzling lights one after another.
The white bones flew in all directions, and scattered broken bones fell from the air like raindrops, and the cursed cultists behind the skeleton soldiers did not panic in the slightest, after all, this kind of low-level skeleton soldiers are used to consume the magic power of the opponent's sacrificial team, and when the cavalry breaks the formation, that is the real show...
The bombardment lasted for five rounds, and the number of skeleton warriors armed with various short weapons was less than half of the original, and most of the survivors had broken arms and legs, and only the skeleton archers who stood farther away were more neatly organized.
"Evil is ahead, piercing their sins and giving the slaughterers their rightful end. With Scott's passionate roar, the two thousand silver knights launched a formidable charge towards the skeletal warriors who were standing unsteadily.
The first thing to usher in was the dense white bone arrows in mid-air, like locusts, but the arrows shot by these low-level skeleton archers were like thin needles touching iron armor, and they were easily bounced away, and with the help of the powerful impact of the war horse, the distance between the human knight and the undead white bone was soon less than fifty meters.
'Light Judgment Slash'
With a low shout from Scott at the front, the white light sword on the long sword in his hand turned into a sword qi nearly ten meters long, like scissors breaking through the cloth, easily tearing a huge opening, and the sharp sword turned into by this team of cavalry pierced straight into the white bone skeleton herd along this opening, like a hungry wolf entering the flock of sheep, and soon broke through to the skeleton archers behind it.
Behind the archers, there were dark elves standing in a row, and a steady stream of undead magic, some of them unleashing more powerful 'bone spur' magic, and some of them summoned another new skeleton soldier to charge towards the knight who had just broken through the skeleton archer.
Scott, who was the first to stand out from the skeletal archers, looked at the cursed cultists not far away, a sneer appeared on his lips, and he raised his long sword, just about to launch the 'Holy Light Judgment Slash' again.
But the air next to him suddenly rippled, and a tall figure surrounded by black mist silently appeared on his side less than ten meters, and two inconspicuous small cold lights crossed and shot towards him.
It was only when he noticed so close that Scott's face changed slightly, and he swung the half-condensed 'Holy Light Judgment Slash' with his sword blade towards the pair of cold rays.
The three-meter-long Holy Light Slash came into contact with the one-meter-long cold light, and with a low roar, the Holy Light Slash of the Paladin-Chief turned into nothingness first, but the two cold lights also weakened because of this, and fell on the armor that was hastily applied by Scott with a layer of 'Holy Light Protection', and the effect was not painful.
"The talent is good, maybe if you grow up for a few more years, you will be a good opponent in the future. Shaperina shook the two daggers in her hand and said to the young paladin in a flirtatious tone. The latter saw that the person who came was a dark elf, and quickly judged in his heart that her strength might not be inferior to his own, and his expression was very solemn.
Breaking through the defense line of low-level skeletons and skeleton archers, the momentum of the Silver Knights' charge almost subsided, and they were fighting with the newly summoned skeletons of the Cursed Cultists, and both sides consciously left plenty of room for the two seventh-order powerhouses to fight.
The Templars at the rear of the Holy See were closely guarded by the team of Crescent Priestesses, and surrounded by the first two, the carriage of the Cardinal and the Holy See Maiden stepped into the place where the skeleton warriors had been.
The area was flanked by towering mountains and relatively small terrain, and if the battle took place in the open plains, their Silver Knights would have been able to use their great mobility to bypass the cannon fodder skeletons from both flanks and attack the fragile Cultists of the Damned.
As the signature force of this world, not to mention the Silver Knights, which are still subordinate to the backbone of the Holy See, the defense line of the new organization of undead creatures summoned by the Cursed Sect soon became crumbling again.
"It's time for you to make a move," Serma said to her colleague Angus. The latter shook his head.
"Wait... It was right away."
Standing behind her father, Angel looked at the approaching battle line in front of her, and inevitably felt a trace of discomfort in her heart, under the protection of the Silver Knights, the forcibly recruited Bright Blue Mages were also constantly releasing long-range support magic.
The Crescent Priestess paused her attacks due to a series of magical bombardments from the previous series, and stepped on the broken bones of the ground.
Suddenly, an extremely rich undead magic power suddenly appeared in the sky in the distance, gradually forming a huge gray seven-pointed star magic array, and thousands of white ghosts flew out heavily.
It was the seventh-order magic 'Undead Revival' released by Angus, and in the series of battles just now, even the most elite Silver Knights of the Holy See would inevitably suffer casualties, and more than a hundred knights who had already fallen shook their feet and slashed at their companions who were untouched by the long sword in their hands.
Not only that, the scattered white bones that had already been shattered were gradually combined under the action of this white ghost, and the fragile joints glowed with a strange silver luster, and the crescent priest and the Bright Blue Academy, who had already stepped into the white bone area, were surrounded by the newly formed skeleton army in an instant.
But this state of affairs did not last long, as the cardinal of the center of the Holy See stepped forward, holding aloft the scepter of 'mercy', and the gentle light burst out from the jewel at the top, like a warm sun shining on a white ghost fluttering in the air.
"God is forgiving and merciful, rebellious and blameless, lost sins, returning to the glorious embrace"
Seventh-Order Magic: 'Requiem for the Town of Light'
Like cotton in flames, under the light of this holy light, the white ghost that began to show its teeth and claws disappeared into the air in an instant, and the skeleton warrior who had just been condensed fell like a mountain of seas, as if laughing at the pitiful farce of the undead magic just now.
Angus's face was a little ugly, although both of them released seventh-order magic, but the magic of the Holy See obviously had a restraining relationship with him that could not be ignored, and Angel's mouth behind him moved, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing that his magic was so vulnerable, Serma in the rear snorted coldly, opened his hands widely, and regathered the undead magic pulled by Angus, and another seven-pointed star array gradually formed in the air, and the situation under the field was already in a state of anxiety, and the Silver Knights were about to break through the defense line.
But fortunately, the 600 Dark Elves who originally planned to outflank the crescent moon sacrifice in the rear of the Holy See troops found that they were closely followed by 100 Templars, and knew that the raid was fruitless, so they formed a new layer of defense under the leadership of the three sixth-order powerhouses they left. Behind them stood the four Sixth-Order 'Crime' sacrifices brought by the Cursed Sect, as well as the two thousand disciples under their command.
Eudora in the carriage looked at this scene, and her jade teeth opened slightly: "Catherina, it's time for us to make a move." ”
"It's finally my turn to make a move, let me see what's going on outside" The immature priestess was full of worry and curiosity about the situation outside, and the jade pendant on her body made a crisp and pleasant sound as she moved.
The two women left the white carriage one after another, and the Templars stood in a circle outside, and Morgan, the Templar commander at the peak of the sixth order, bowed to her.
"Under the crown of the Holy Maiden, this kind of scene with the crown of cardinals, and the power of four white bishops and three crescent high priests, can still eradicate those who have fallen. ”
"No need, we need to break through their defenses as soon as possible, I suspect that they have already sent some people to the Old Holy City to find the location of the 'garden'" Eudora said lightly, and the battlefield ahead suddenly changed in shock.
In mid-air, the original gray undead magic turned into blood red at some point, and the flesh and blood of the silver knight who fell on the battlefield turned into a beam of red light and immersed in the center of the magic circle, in these hundreds of red rays that flew into the sky, the magic array gradually turned dark red, and the seven-pointed star magic circle gradually evolved into a tumbling blood-colored dark cloud, and the biting cold wind carried the smell of rot, which was more frightening and depressing than the dark cloud red light shrouded in the sky.
Seventh Order Necromantic Magic: "Touch of the Sea of Blood"
"Hahaha, no one! can resist this wave" The originally gloomy Serma, when she saw that the magic was completed, suddenly appeared in her eyes with a touch of madness, and a piercing shrill smile came out of her mouth.
With his laughter, the rolling blood clouds in the sky suddenly surged like waves in a storm, and blood-colored tentacles poked out from the depths of the clouds, and these tentacles covered with hideous bone spurs and suckers were like optimus pillars, stretching out into the crowd of the Silver Knights, and in an instant, a sixth-order deputy head of the Silver Knights was dragged into the air.
The armor that had been blessed by the divine on the body did not play a single role, and in an instant, it was turned into a blurred mass of flesh and blood, and the blood suction cup absorbed most of it, spurting upwards along the internal blood vessels, and the gathering place turned out to be a beating heart in the blood cloud, and the sound of cooing was like the heartbeat of the demon king.
The flesh and blood of the sixth-order powerhouse seemed to provide sufficient nutrients for that heart, and more and more tentacles grew from the surroundings, in the face of this unstoppable power, even the silver knight with a pious belief would inevitably be stained with a layer of gray haze on his face.
