Chapter 131: Attack
Because of the emperor, the imperial lord and the landless nobles in the center have no foundation, and private soldiers are all they have.
But secretly, their methods are too annoying, even in the barracks, there are people fighting every day, and every few days a big trouble comes out in the sea.
Bronx Woodford, from the Northlands, was in frequent contact with the royal lords and the landless nobles of the Northland.
Southern soldiers fell ill because they couldn't stand the cold.
At the meeting, the Bronx said that the problem of healing potions could be solved by Lanton, but the real purpose was not to solve the problem of soldiers getting sick.
It's about infighting!
If the Bronx succeeds, get a capable, meritorious Langton down.
Doesn't that mean that they can deal with whomever they want?
If you indulge in this, the army will definitely fall into endless infighting, and even give the landless nobles a chance to attack them, and there will be no need to fight the battle against the barbarians!
So, Bronx Woodford ran into the muzzle of Bruce Medici's killer monkey!
Kill yourself!
Looking at Bronx Woodford, who was hanged on the gallows, Langton felt very speechless and helpless.
He hasn't really shot at the Woodford family yet!
Why did this old guy fall?
Or do you hurt others and kill yourself......
Do you want to be so funny?
And also...
Wickley Woodford, this kid is looking at himself with hatred, is he blaming me for the death of his dad Bronx?
It was Bruce Medici who ordered him to be hanged......
However, the two sides are inherently hostile and not friends.
It doesn't matter if you're hated.
Besides, Wake Woodford's strength is not a threat to himself at all, and if he dares to die, Langton promises to send him to reunite with his old father.
Compare to these.
He is more concerned about his own problems.
Absorbing the unknown abilities, bloodlines, or talents of the Cthulhu gods, Landon fears that he will suddenly become a tentacle monster......
Or what abscesses are to blame......
The problem is too big.
Even if he didn't want to learn about the Cthulhu gods, he could only continue to open the magic book "The Book of Ibon" and the cursed script "The King in Yellow".
Study the blank page above the gold finger.
For the Book of Ebon, Langton can already remember a lot.
But "The King in Yellow" ......
In addition to the two stories that affect the spirit of normal people, this script only records the incantation of "creating the gate of time and space", and the seal of the yellow coat with unknown effect.
Because he was not affected by the script, he never dreamed of Hasta, the king in yellow.
So......
Langton prepares to try the only spell inside.
- Create a space-time gate!
Casting stealth and secretly leaving the Grey Serpent Castle, Lanton didn't even tell Immorton, because with the protection of Anubis, the god of death, the high priest could not resist the influence of the power of the Cthulhu gods.
It could be a surprise to let him follow.
Fly into the middle of nowhere.
Langton began to follow the method recorded in the script, arranging the ritual circle, and then consuming a large amount of mana to cast spells.
Create a space-time gate!
"Whoosh~!!"
"Huh~!!"
A pale yellow self-formed space-time gate flew out, and before Lan Dun could react, the cold wind between heaven and earth all gathered violently.
The ground began to shake slightly, and a battlefield full of gods and demons loomed in the night sky!
When this happens, the gods of this world are paying attention to it.
Staying invisible, Ranton immediately fled.
And the space-time gate loses its mana.
Also quickly disappears.
The wind stopped, and the battlefield of gods and demons looming in the night sky disappeared like a shattered dream bubble.
A tall, thin, dark-skinned sunny man suddenly appeared.
Withstand the sudden rains of thunder, fire, and light.
Then screamed and collapsed.
After a while, the sky and the earth were calm.
But Langton didn't stop for a moment, and still burst out with all his strength and flew at full speed, and suddenly the voice of Nyarratto Tip was heard from the cold front.
"I thought you wouldn't touch anything about us again. ”
"Why did you open the space-time door?"
"You want to see me?"
Hearing the words, Lanton slowly landed on the ground, and the dark-skinned, tall, thin, and sunny Nayarathotep immediately appeared.
Langton didn't talk nonsense, nodded and said, "That's right, I'll ask you about my situation." ”
Hearing this, Nyarrathotep took a closer look at Langton, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face: "What did you do?"
Langton shrugged and said, "Absorbed and fused abilities, bloodlines, and talents. ”
Nyara Totipp didn't come back to his senses for a long time when he heard this.
"Nyarrathotep!"
"You don't know what's going on with me?" Langton frowned: "Or you can't solve it and want to die together?"
Nyaratotip shook her head: "No, there is nothing wrong with your body. ”
"It's about... Replacing Azathos ......"
......
......
"Rumble~"
The sound of horses' hooves roared on the earth, and after a while, more than 100,000 cavalry came out of the valley, through the white grassland, far away from the holy mountain that stood like a pillar of heaven and the wolf smoke on the peak, and galloped south!
Banners flutter across rivers and pastoral areas.
Gallop from day to night.
Easily avoided the scouts sent by Grey Serpent.
The cold wind is raging.
Because a large number of southern soldiers were sick, the number of scouts going out was reduced, and there were far fewer sentries patrolling the walls of Grey Serpent Fort, which stretched for miles.
Everyone wants to stay indoors or around a fire and behave lazily.
Even if the soldiers take turns to practice every three days.
also gave birth to a sense of slackness.
There was no moon in the night, the snowflakes were quietly scattered in the darkness, and the fog slowly spread, and then thinly covered the city on the ground.
Because of the fog, Yelena and the others were full of worries about this weather.
The Lanton clone flew in the sky several times.
After making sure that nothing evil had befallen them, the people were relieved.
However.
In the grassland north of the Gray Snake Castle, there was a sudden thunderous sound of horses' hooves, and there was a slight tremor around the low mountains far away from the grassland.
After the experience of the treacherous fog disaster, Yelena and the others were so frightened that they hurriedly urged Langton to investigate the situation.
"It's barbarian cavalry!"
"The enemy is coming!"
"Woo~!!" "Woo~!!" "Woo~!!"
"How dare these barbarians come to seek death?"
The soldiers, who found out about the situation, immediately blew their horns, and on the balcony of the castle, Bruce Medici ordered everyone to prepare for battle.
The soldiers quickly moved into combat positions.
"Marshal, do you want to let the cavalry attack and frustrate the enemy's spirit?"
"Now is not the time, first see what the enemy is going to do. ”
"Rumble~"
A group of barbarian cavalry of more than a thousand people rushed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, they approached the low hill where the Gray Serpent Fort was located, and among them, the transcendent ones bent their bows and shot arrows one after another.
Meteor-like arrows streak across the night sky and hit the soldiers on the walls who can't dodge.
"Crossbow fire back!"
Roderick Fox, who had been promoted to deputy commander of the infantry, did not hesitate to give the order, and the soldiers operating the mechanical crossbows immediately opened fire.
"Whoosh~"
"Woo Woo Woo ~ "
Faced with the rain of arrows created by the repeaters, the barbarian cavalry counterattacked while retreating, and their attack was a temptation.
Determine the range of the defending weapons on the city walls!
After paying ninety percent of the casualties, they retreated in embarrassment.
At this time, Yelena and her people hurriedly found Marshal Bruce Medici, who was standing on the balcony of the castle watching and commanding.
"Marshal, the barbarian shaman is extraordinary. ”
"We need to mobilize the mages to defend. ”
After the previous battle against the small tribe, Yelena's advice was never wrong, and Bruce would not ignore her opinion, nodding his head and giving the order for the mages to assemble.
At this point, the barbarian cavalry stopped out of range of repeaters and catapults.
But the slight shaking of the ground did not end.
Having seen the barbarians' siege methods, she had already told the marshal all the information she knew, but Yelena reminded again: "Beware of the enemy's shamans. ”
"In addition to being able to communicate with the spirits of their ancestors to strengthen their combat power, they also control the power of the elements, and their spell power is no worse than that of mages. ”
Boom————
The shaking of the ground suddenly intensified.
Knowing that the barbarian shaman had the ability to control the elements, and sensing the rebellion of the earth element, the mages who were summoned in the Gray Serpent Castle took action one after another.
I want to calm these tremors.
There is no systematic study of the magic of this world.
The Ranton clone knew that the ground was affected by the earth elemental riot and there was a violent vibration, but it was difficult to determine the exact location of the source because of the distance.
Join the circle and unleash your mana with the mages.
Under the spiritual remote sensing, I saw the holy mountain standing like a pillar of heaven on the grassland, and the phantom shadows of the barbarian shaman dancing in his hands.
As a newcomer, Langton's clone shamelessly asked, "That is the holy mountain of the steppe barbarians?"
An old mage nodded: "That's right, that is the holy mountain of the barbarians, the habitat of the dead barbarian powerhouses, the worship of the steppe people, and the power to communicate the elements of heaven and earth."
The barbarian shaman is on the grassland and can use the power of the holy mountain at will. ”
Langton was a little surprised: "The advantage is so big?"
The old mage knew what was in his mind as a young man, so he chuckled lightly and said, "Do you know how old I am?"
Hearing this, Langton was confused and didn't understand what this meant: "Huh?"
Old Mage: "I'm ninety years old, and it's the elements and magic that keep me young. ”
"No, the old gentleman looks like he's only sixty at most. "Langton didn't expect that the advantage of being a mage was immortality......
Old Mage: "I'm not a strong man, but the Alien Plane is our mage's territory.
The reason why I can't show my true strength in the Overworld is because of the gods. ”
Thinking of the existence of the creation gods, the three gods, and the ancestral gods of all races, Langton also understood what was going on, and then controlled the spirit, seeing that most of the people had calmed down the earth element, and a small number of people were staring at those shaman phantoms.
On a spiritual level, the mages are sure to inflict trauma on their enemies!
"Boom~!!"
Spells, or mages are the best at it!
Shaman's ranged spell casting is a breeze for mages, who spot where they are and immediately launch a deadly attack.
But......
The phantom of the sacred mountain of the grassland suddenly bloomed!
Directly protect the shaman who casts the spell, and the souls of countless barbarian powerhouses appear, they roar and roar, and their fighting intent rushes into the sky!
All spells are destroyed!
The old mage and the others immediately withdrew their spirits.
"Their holy mountain can even support from a distance!"
"The souls of those dead barbarian powerhouses are actually perennial!"
"The heritage of the family should not be underestimated!"
"Tell the marshal the information!"
"No, the Earth Elemental Rebellion has stopped. "The shaking of the ground continued, calming the chaos of the elements, and failing to attack the enemy on the spiritual level, all the mages, you and I found another abnormality.
Boom————
The tremors made the soldiers unsteady on their feet, the flags were crooked, and countless water cups placed on the table were shaken to the ground.
And in the grasslands to the north of the low mountains, billowing smoke and dust add to the mist.
Make your vision blurry even more!
After reporting to the marshal about the situation of the mage regiment, Langton vaguely saw the grassland of the Pingchuan River, and suddenly arched a hill like a tomb.
Then the hill stretched rapidly towards the castle.
In the blink of an eye.
An earthen bridge suddenly hit the city wall!
"What are you kidding?" Seeing this, Langton was stunned: "The enemy actually has a spell to change the world!"
Bruce on the balcony couldn't keep his composure: "Quick! Destroy the earthen bridge!"
"Destroy the earthen bridge!"
"Don't let the enemy rush up!"
As a transcendent, Bruce's shouts immediately spread throughout the Grey Serpent Castle, but a bitter wind suddenly blew across the grassland, and the mist and smoke were dispersed, and they continued to fly from the earthen bridge on the back.
"Rumble ~ !!"
The sound of the horse's hooves was like thunder.
Bruce Medici's voice disappeared in an instant with the wind and thunder.
The flags of both sides were fluttering in the wind, but the imposing barbarian cavalry rode the wind!
"Repeater fire!" "Catapult attack!" "Shield Men in formation!" "Spearmen!" "Crossbowmen assemble!" "Block the earthen bridge!"
"Prepare for the reserves!"
Although hasty, under the command of many officers, the soldiers quickly formed a battle formation, blocking the hillside and setting up the city wall.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh~" "Boom Boom !!"
"Rumble~"
"Kill!"
The attacks of mechanical crossbows and return cannons continued one after another, but the pace of the barbarian cavalry did not stop for a moment, and the strong man who was the sharp edge wielded his scimitar, straightened his spear, and raised his broadsword.
In the battle array, the transcendents came to the aid of the shield soldiers.
I want to help them withstand the impact.
However.
The barbarian powerhouse leaped on his horse, instantly crossed the door shield at the front of the battle array, and then landed to kill the soldier with the long sword.
When the transcendent gave up helping to resist the door shield, he turned back to rescue the soldiers.
The barbarian powerhouses, who continued to act as sharp edges, broke through the formation, and the torrent stormed violently, losing the protection of door shields and spears, and the infantry was suddenly in danger, and as blood and stumps flew sideways, screams, wails, roars, and war cries played the music of war.
"Kill~!!"
"Rush~!!"
"Block them!"
"Hurry up!"
The walkway on the city wall was originally not large, and in a hurry it barely formed a battle formation on the earthen bridge, but it did not have enough depth.
The cavalry was like a sword, squeezing the cavalry guarding the city wall off the earthen bridge and knocking it down.
In the midst of the chaos, the transcendent were targeted by the barbarian powerhouses.
In a blink of an eye, the walls were lost!
"Gabry, bring our strong men to the city wall immediately!"
Seeing this, Bruce hurriedly ordered Langton, asking him to use his telekinesis to bring his own transcendents to support when he copied the counterinsurgency.
Defending the city was the job of infantry and auxiliaries.
Now that the city wall has fallen, Reinaldo Reyes and other cavalry officers immediately rushed to support.
Infantry halberds, spears, battle axes, and broadswords are wielded.
But it was not so easy for the people to retake the walls.
"Jackson, I'll help you!"
After receiving the marshal's order, seeing Jax Ogas and the others who were meeting the barbarian cavalry that had been killed from the city wall, Langton immediately landed and entangled them with his telekinesis.
Acquaintances such as Roderick Fox and Martin Burns were found, all brought directly to the city walls.
"Kill!"
Without the help of Lanton's telekinesis, many transcendents on the city wall blocked it.
Reinaldo Reyes had already rushed to the earthen bridge with an infantry halberd in his hand to support his own transcendents who were being defended by the barbarian powerhouses, and then with his strong physique, with the wind and blood, he fought on the earthen bridge.
Stop the charge of the follow-up troops of the barbarian cavalry.
"Keep up and form a battle formation!".
Roderick Fox raised his sword and shield, and formed a battle formation with the crowd.
...... To be continued......
