Chapter 23 Short Combat I
In the first encounter, the mage's side had a slight advantage, although the knights narrowed the distance between the mages and the warriors, but they successfully forced out the gods hidden in the knights, and consumed part of the knights' living forces. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Dozens of units of knights, it sounds like an insignificant number, but if you add the suffix knight, it will be a heavy blow to any force.
Even a behemoth like the Church of the True God cannot turn a blind eye to such losses.
However, for the mages, these few advantages can not help them much. After all, the mages were at an absolute disadvantage on an overall level, and killing twenty or thirty knights would not help the battle situation at all. Moreover, the most terrifying thing about the Knights is far from being revealed.
It's a charge.
An army of steel is strong enough to tear through any flesh and blood, and there is no army on the continent that can withstand the charge of the Knights. At least, before the Demon Abyss begins to fully encroach on this side of the world.
The mages of the Avengers will only know better than Monia the horror of the Knights, and in the Second Age, the Knights of the various churches have destroyed many mage schools. As a mage organization that takes the church as the object of revenge, many of its members are lucky survivors under the iron hooves of the knights, and the first imaginary enemy of the defense line they build is the knights of the church.
Now, they're finally here.
One by one, the defensive circles were activated, and layers of coats of arms that shone with wonderful brilliance appeared above the complex, and then formed a ring of protective barriers, indifferently rejecting all material entry.
"I declare that the blade of God will cut through everything, and there is no rival before us."
The mantra of the Divine Favor resounded throughout the battlefield again, and the rules were rewritten once more, only this time, everyone could hear a little weakness in his voice. Obviously, the continuous unleashing of battlefield-level mantras and the forcible break free time stop was not a small drain on him.
As his words fell, the tips of the knights' spears shone with a brilliant divine light, and the weapons of all the knights of the Order were blessed by the gods. As long as the mantra can last, there is no obstacle in the world that they cannot break, not even the defensive spells of the mages.
However, the results clearly exceeded the expectations of the clergy and knights. Just collided with the defensive barrier that encountered the mage, and there was not even a stalemate for a while, and the tip of the spear blessed by the gods directly pierced through the outermost hard shell of the barrier, and then submerged into a strange layer of space within the barrier.
There, it's hard to move an inch.
This is......
The knights in the first row felt as if they were pressing against a mountain, and their movements slowed down unconsciously. Like them, there were their mounts, also panting heavily, struggling to move forward.
"Be careful!"
The knights in the back row didn't know why the speed of their comrades in the front row had plummeted in an instant, but in this strange environment, he had reason to deduce that it was a trap for the mages - the mages knew the Knights, and as the main force to suppress the mages, they naturally knew something about the mages.
"Slow down! It's a mage's trick! ”
He roared, and the knights in the back row began to slow down, but no matter how fast his reaction was, he couldn't save the knights in the first two rows who crashed into each other because of the difference in speed. Judging by the speed at which they are currently charging, it is clear that they have no hope of survival.
With an unprecedented heavy heart, the knights walked forward on the bones of their comrades.
On the other side, the mages watched with satisfaction the results of the defensive lines they had laid out. From the beginning, the mages didn't expect the defensive ramparts to stop the knights. Countless bloody lessons have taught the surviving mages that the clergy have many ways to turn the mage's proud defenses into useless ornaments. So, what the mages are thinking about is not blocking, but slowing down.
Why are the Knights invincible?
Because of their invincible military might.
Why do the Knights have such an invincible army?
Because they're fast enough and hard enough. They were fast enough that the mages could only prepare a wave of spells, and the archers only had time to shoot a rain of arrows; They are hard enough, the bright silver armor is all equipped with magic skills that increase spell resistance, and the material itself is good enough to resist the next round of spell shots.
The mages didn't have a good idea of how to reduce the Knights' resistance, and they turned their attention to another powerful reason for the Knights: speed. Speed allows the Order to dodge a large number of spells, and it also makes the Order's charge terrifying. But on the other hand, once the knights lose their speed, can they still crush the mage's resistance like a rotten wood?
Apparently not.
So, the mages designed this defensive circle with the mud foot deep as the core.
The effect was obviously beyond the expectations of their creators, not only achieving the intended goal, but also unexpectedly inflicting some damage on the Knights. In normal times, mages might be tempted to cheer for the great results, but now is not the time to let their guard down.
"Great Tonatiu, you are the light of the light, you are the king of hosts, please grant your believers the authority of victory!" In the Knights, a voice came from a different voice from the Divine Favor just now, it was obvious that he was a believer in Tonatiu, another top-level combat power in addition to the Divine Favor, a Divine Side level priest!
The side of the gods, that is, on the side of the gods, is the highest level that the clergy can reach by hard work and sweat.
As his voice fell, the sky obscured by the heraldic light was suddenly torn apart, and an incomparably bright, incomparably pure light shot down from the sky, and the magic circle carefully designed by the mages, the almost extreme heraldic circle in the world was pierced by this unimaginable power in an instant, and the ruthless and endless light sprinkled towards the position of the knights, so that the knights were bathed in a holy light, and all laws were not harmed.
The knights' somewhat worn armor under the spell bombardment was re-immaculately immaculate under the bath of divine light, and their tired bodies were filled with power in an instant. In the light of the Light, they are fearless! Unbeatable!
"For Tonatiu!"
They roared, rode their horses again, and whipped up!
"It's just cheating." Monia looked at all this and couldn't help but sigh. The Avengers had obviously made a lot of preparations for this day, but their careful preparations were broken through layer by layer in the way of the clergy's near-scoundrels. Whether it was the Truth Word Divine Technique, or the spell that had just destroyed the mage's defensive circle, it was essentially a projection of the power of the gods.
"It's time for a close battle, and it's only a matter of time before the rest of the circle is broken through by them."
Yurami spoke, and there was no objection from the mage. In the beginning, everyone foresaw this, for in the Second Age there was only one true ruler, and that was the gods. No matter how arrogant the mages were, they couldn't avoid this fact.
"Hurry up, when the speed of the knights increases, I'm afraid we won't have to fight."
The mages began to enter the battlefield under the organization of the high-level mages, and Erikent, as one of the high-level mages, did not organize ordinary mages to participate in the battle, but also followed behind Yurami with several high-level mages, flew above the knights, and then landed.
"Really, is it such a big move? The gods have come out. ”
Yurami said with a slight complaint, one person blocking the direction of the entire Knights.
"Your evil deeds are beyond the limits of what the gods can endure, and I condemn you on behalf of the gods!" The Knights were ordered to stop, and a middle-aged man in a white robe stepped up the void steps, looking down condescendingly at Yurami and several high-ranking mages.
Monia didn't like the way he looked, the look of superiority. But there is no way, she is just a low-level mage, even if Erickent, she is only a high-level mage. In this kind of battle close to the realm of legends, she can't even be cannon fodder.
"Then speak with your fists, and don't let me know that you're really talking about it."
The archmage punned, then stretched out his hand and swept the Divine Favor into a spatial vortex, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them appeared above the attic to which Monia had been invited before.
"Huh, that's what you're relying on?" The Divine Favor did not panic, and responded with a cold snort, "I will judge your sins!" ”
"You clergymen rely on that mouth, but I'll shut you up," a circle covering the entire Avengers base centered in the attic blessed him, and the old man added lightly, "forever." ”
Monia doesn't know what happened after that, and she has her own battle.
"Blood Mage Errickent?"
Ten knights walked out of the phalanx and stood away one by one, and the man at the end of them asked.
"It's me." Monia didn't answer, it was Erikent who answered.
"I like your title very much, so, today you are my prey." The knight's armor was black and red, and it was only a glance that it was an ominous armor, "My name is Roga, 'Calamity Red' Roga, please remember this name, for I am destined to take your life." ”
"Hmph." Erikent didn't answer, just let out a deep nasal voice, and then Monia regained control of her body, and almost at the same time, one of the seven knights in front of her immediately turned into a blood-colored light and attacked her.
Fortunately, Monia was prepared, and Erikent's eyes had also been modified by him with alchemy, so that he could keep up with the movements of the high-ranking warriors. The moment Calamity Red rose to her feet, she spat out a spell that summoned a huge palm to meet the onrushing knight.
"Hah!" The knight let out a loud shout, and the strong current exploded, and he stepped into a sonic boom in the void, abruptly changing the direction of his progress, just in time to avoid the aether's hand, which was a little dull compared to him, and slashed at Monia with both hands clenched the hideous blood-red greatsword.
The world was divided in two in her eyes.
This sword seems to have split the heavens and the earth and cut through the chaos!
There is no escape! There is no way to avoid it!
