Chapter 316: The Beginning of the Bloody War (Text)

Hearing Li Qing's roar, the Amaterasu military reacted.

The fifty shield-wielding wrestlers who were responsible for protecting the five white-robed mages gathered in a panic, trying in vain to protect the corpses of the mages. A few more white-robed priests in gold-trimmed robes rushed out of the military formation under the protection of the warriors, and burrowed into the protective circle of the shield-wielding wrestlers to check on the situation of the five white-robed mages.

But all this is already too late. The five white-robed mages were already too dead to die, and no one could save the five white-robed mages unless there was a Holy Spirit priest in the Amaterasu Army who could perform the resurrection spell.

However, how could the Holy Spirit Priest, even if there were very few in the Holy Light Alliance, come here to fight? Moreover, the cost of performing the resurrection spell was too high to bear, and even if there was a Holy Spirit priest in the army, he would never save those five white-robed mages.

After determining that the five white-robed mages were all destroyed, Amaterasu was immediately furious.

The officers shouted angrily and ordered the cannons to be fired, and the thirty cannons lined up under the city wall fired at the same time, and thirty cannonballs roared wildly towards Li Qing, but Li Qing only covered his face with his hands and let those cannonballs bombard his body.

Boom Boom Boom ...... In the loud sound of hitting the bell, a series of more than ten cannonballs hit Li Qing squarely. But his body was as steady as Mount Tai, and when this round of shelling was over, he opened his bow and released the arrows again, and shot the remaining twenty-five carved heavy arrows in the quiver in one go!

In the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air, the sound of popping into the flesh sounded one after another. A full twenty-five gunners were shot in the eye by Li Qing and pierced through the skull. Some of the gunners died instantly, and a few of the slightly stronger ones did not die immediately, struggling to die and wailing wildly.

For a while, screams, wails, roars, and exclamations rang out noisily in the Amaterasu army. The Amaterasu gunners, who were not greeted by Li Qing, screamed and fled into the formation. The Amaterasu army was in chaos at once.

On the super battleship Amaterasu, the legendary mage Hopkins, who confronted Su Su Yao and restrained each other, also noticed the death of the five white-robed mages at this time.

"What's going on? Jon: They're all dead! Hopkins' bearded eyebrows twitched a few times, shocked and heartbroken.

There were five mid-level mages, all of whom had a spell-casting ability of level 10 or above, and they were all mages from the Holy Light Alliance, each of whom was from a noble background. The lives of the five people together can be said to be more precious than the 3,000 Tianzhao army.

But they were shot to death inexplicably, as easily as the Imperial officer shot a wild duck!

"Jon, none of the trigger-triggered magic shields on them work?" The silver-armored knight standing behind him stepped forward, stared at Li Qing on the wall of the fortress, and said in a deep voice, "Could it be that the imperial officer shot the Demon Breaking Arrow?" ”

Hopkins said in a deep voice, "No! Even if it's a Demon Breaker, Jon's magic shield will trigger automatically. Whether you can block it or not is another matter, but the triggered magic shield will definitely react. But just now, Jon and the five of them didn't react when the arrow hit them......"

As he spoke, a blue light visible to the naked eye erupted in his eyes, and he stared at the fortress carefully for a while, and said in shock: "Death magic area? The area of the fortress and its surroundings of two hundred and thirty meters has actually become a dead magic area! No wonder ......"

"Dead magic area?" A flash of shock also flashed in the silver-armored knight's eyes: "How is it possible?" How can there be a dead magic area on Nakayama Island? ”

The Silver Knight is no stranger to the Death Magic Zone.

There are some mysterious places in the world realm, where there are natural areas of death magic. In that kind of area, the magic will fail, and the light of the gods will not shine in that kind of place, and even the magic will be invalid.

Powerful mages, noble priests, in that kind of place, are too weak to be vulnerable.

The Dead Magic Zone is a haven for warlords. Even if it is just a few levels of small warriors, he can easily overturn the high-level mages in the area of dead magic.

As the deputy head of the Silver Shield Knights, a powerful warrior who is only one step away from stepping into the legendary realm, this Silver Armor Knight should welcome the existence of the Death Magic Zone. It's just that Zhongshan Island shouldn't have a dead magic area, but now it has unexpectedly appeared, this kind of unexpected accident beyond control makes the Silver Armor Knight feel a little bad.

"That's not a naturally occurring area of dead magic."

Hopkins' eyes flashed blue, staring at the fortress area, and said, "That's artificially created, prohibiting all spells below level nine. I feel that the area of dead magic is not only forbidden magic, but even the extraordinary skills of the combat class, as long as the energy intensity does not exceed the ninth level of magic, it will be banned together. ”

The Silver Armor Knight's eyes were even more shocked: "Artificially create a dead magic area, prohibiting all spells and extraordinary skills below level nine? This level of domain competence...... Could it be that woman......"

The blue glow in Hopkins' eyes dissipated, raised his head, took a deep look at Su Su in the mountain fortress, and said, "That woman, although she is only at the level of the Legendary Beginner Rank, her understanding and application of the rules has far surpassed me. Although I am a Legendary Second Order, with my ability, I can only barely contain her. Good thing we still have ......."

He paused, was silent for a while, and changed the subject, "The Death Magic Region treats both friend and foe equally, but the Imperial defenders don't have many spellcasters in the first place, and even bloodline magicians are pitiful. And our spellcasters, whether mages, priests, or bloodline magicians, who had an overwhelming advantage, are now all deposed. The advantage of our army's spellcasters has completely disappeared. ”

The silver-armored knight said: "But our army still has an overwhelming advantage. Even if the caster's advantage can't be used, with the advantage of troops, he can still take down that fortress. ”

Hopkins nodded slightly and said, "Order the three thousand Amaterasu army to attack immediately without delay." Kyelheimer, you and the Silver Shield Knights are on your way to oversee the battle. The battle ...... There is no advance or retreat, and if the port fortress is not laid, the 3,000 Tianzhao army, even if all of them die in the fortress, no one will be allowed to withdraw! ”

The silver-armored knight Kellheimer knew that Hopkins hated even the three thousand Amaterasu strikers because of the death of five mid-level mages including Jon. But Kellheimer has no objection to this, anyway, to the Holy Light Alliance, Amaterasu is just a client state. The Amaterasu Army is only a servant army, and no matter how many deaths they have, they won't feel distressed by those of the Holy Light Alliance.

In Kellheimer's opinion, the lives of the three thousand Amaterasu troops combined were not as precious as the lives of the five white-robed mages. Without the protection of Jon and the other five mages, the 3,000 Amaterasu would have to atone for their sins.

If you can take down the harbor fortress, it's okay to say, if you can't beat it, you will all die inside!

Li Qing shot all the arrows, put away the iron folding bow, and stood proudly above the city with the dragon's tooth war knife in both hands.

The Amaterasu army, two hundred meters below the city, was still in chaos.

The death of the five white-robed mages caused the Amaterasu army to panic and lose ground. After the bombardment of Li Qing failed and Li Qing shot and killed 25 gunners, a group of Amaterasu officers did not care about the whole team or the siege of the city, but gathered together to accuse each other and shirk each other's responsibilities.

Obviously, these Amaterasu officers also understood what kind of trouble the death of the five mages would bring them.

Of course, Li Qing was happy to do so.

He would need to hold on for three days before reinforcements arrived. Of course, it can be delayed for as long as it can be delayed. It would be great if the Amaterasu army had not attacked all the time, and only fought artillery battles in the air. In Li Qing's opinion, it is best to fight an artillery battle for three days until reinforcements arrive.

Unfortunately, the tide of battle will not go the way he envisioned.

Li Qing saw that eleven silver-armored knights came down from the Amaterasu, waded and landed, and came to the Amaterasu army array. After arriving, those silver-armored knights didn't say a word, and first cut down a few Amaterasu officers who shouted the loudest, and quickly quelled the chaos of the Amaterasu army.

After that, the silver-armored knight who led the way stood in front of the formation, spoke a few words loudly, drew the knight's sword, turned around and pointed at the city, and the three thousand Amaterasu soldiers roared loudly, like a flood that opened the gates, and rushed towards the city wall.

Three thousand warriors in full armor charged at the same time, and the momentum was amazing. In the sound of rumbling footsteps, Li Qing only felt that the city wall under his feet was trembling slightly.

In the fortress on the hill, seeing that the Amaterasu army finally launched a charge, Su Su pointed at the Amaterasu army formation and shouted, "Open the cannon!" ”

More than 100 artillery pieces that had already been prepared opened fire at the Amaterasu army formation at the same time. In the harbor fortress, dozens of fully enclosed inner batteries also opened fire at the same time. More than 100 shells burst through the air and smashed into the Amaterasu army array, smashing a large number of gaps in the black-pressed Amaterasu army array, smashing the blood mist stumps flying all over the sky.

But the Amaterasu army did not pause in the slightest, and rushed forward with the sacrifice of life. The gap that was smashed by the shell was filled in the blink of an eye. Before the second round of artillery bombardment could start, the distance of 200 meters passed in an instant, and the Amaterasu sergeant who rushed to the front had already rushed to the bottom of the city wall!

In the face of the black frenzied Amaterasu's army, Li Qing still stood on the wall, not moving at all. At the foot of the city wall directly below him, three low-ranking officers of Amaterasu Province jumped up with the momentum, soared more than ten meters high, swung their long knives, and slashed at Li Qing's head.

Three Xueliang long knives slashed at the head, Li Qing's face did not change, the dragon's teeth were unsheathed, and the knife swept like lightning. The cyan sword flashed away, and the three Amaterasu long knives were broken at the waist, and the three Amaterasu officers who were in the air were even cut off by him with their armor!

In the rain of blood, six corpses fell towards the city. But at the same time that Li Qing killed the three Amaterasu officers, a large number of Amaterasu officers jumped onto the city wall from there, and they ignored Li Qing and rushed straight down the wall and rushed into the fortress!

Amaterasu's soldiers, who were unable to jump ten meters, set up a ladder under the castle. Because there was no soldier in the city except for Li Qing to defend it, the Amaterasu soldiers quickly rushed to the top of the city with only human ladders.

In a short period of time, the section of the city wall where Li Qing was located was already full of Amaterasu soldiers.

Except for a few Amaterasu soldiers who killed Li Qing without knowing whether they were alive or dead, most of the Amaterasu soldiers gave up on Li Qing and rushed directly into the fortress. Soon the fortress resounded with an earth-shattering shout of killing, and it quickly spread towards the center of the castle!

"Attacked!" Under the city, a silver shield knight who supervised the battle laughed: "The resistance of the enemy army is unexpectedly weak! There was only one officer in the city! Are everyone else scared enough to fight? ”

"That's not right." Another knight with a silver shield said in a deep voice: "The enemy army deliberately abandons the outer defense line, they want to fight in the streets!" ”

The silver-shielded knight who spoke earlier laughed, "Street fighting? Ha, that's whimsical. These 3,000 Tianzhao troops have been given a death order, and there is no way to retreat, so they can only fight to the death. The imperial defenders in the fortress are all navies who are not good at land warfare, even if they fight in the streets, where is the slightest chance of winning? The big picture is decided! ”

Boom!

With a dull crash, Li Qing slammed his shoulder into the chest of a low-ranking Amaterasu officer, collapsing the officer's breastplate, and then stabbed him in half with a backhand, splitting an Amaterasu soldier in half from head to tail. With another kick, he flattened the door of one of the Anamesasu soldiers who had pounced on him, and slammed into the crowd like a tank, knocking several Amaterasu soldiers into the air and falling off the wall.

After temporarily emptying the enemy troops around him, Li Qing wiped the blood on his face, and rushed back and forth on the city wall with his knife.

He slashed his shoulders, punched and kicked, used everything, every part of his body turned into weapons, and there was almost no enemy under his men. Regardless of the officers and soldiers of the Amaterasu Army, they could not walk under him, and soon died.

Seeing that Li Qing was invincible at the head of the city, the silver shield knights who supervised the battle under the city discussed: "There are almost a hundred people who died at the hands of that imperial officer, right?" ”

"One hundred and seven. Among them were fifteen officers of the bronze rank and two of the silver rank officers. ”

"That's amazing! No wonder he dared to guard the head of the city alone. ”

"Hmph, the strength is average, level thirteen. It's his armor and weapons that are too good. He was hit at least two hundred times, but his armor was not damaged in the slightest. And that knife, any weapon, any armor, can be cut in two. The standard weapons and armor of the officers and men of Amaterasu were simply unable to resist. If it weren't for his strong armor and sword, he would have died several times. ”

"Master Kellheimer, why don't you let me behead him?"

"That person, it's not simple." Kelheimer looked at the head of the city rushing back and forth, and Li Qing, who was clothed in Mi, said in a deep voice: "He should be the supreme governor of Zhongshan Island." The warrior who killed Isohime and the Nine Dragons Sword Saint. He had also killed an eighteenth-level Imperial Bloodline Magician, so he was not a thirteenth-level warrior, but a high-level warrior above the eighteenth. None of you are his opponents. ”

"A high-level warrior above level eighteen? But his breath ......"

"That's just a disguise." Kyleheimer affirmed, "Let him kill." Leave him alone. No matter how powerful he is, he can't kill all the three thousand troops. When he is tired and exhausts his physical strength, it is his time of death. ”

The knights of the silver shield stopped talking and watched the battle.

At this time, most of the 3,000 Amaterasu troops had already rushed into the fortress and fought bloody battles with the defenders in the fort. The sound of gunfire, shelling, sword and gun exchanges, and screams and wails were incessant, which showed the tragic situation of the battle.

Li Qing rushed back and forth at the head of the city a few times, and then beheaded nearly a hundred days of soldiers, and after completely emptying the head of the city, he turned around and rushed down the city wall and entered the fortress.
