28. Heroic Soul - For the Presumptuous Brothers of Midsummer [13/22]
Hanging high in the sky of Stormfjord, the Wallagarh Fortress is like the most iconic structure in this vast hilly mountainous area, in fact, this golden sacred fortress has existed there for tens of thousands of years, but in addition to the part that hangs in the sky, the Wallagarh Fortress, there is also a part of the Wallagarh Fortress that is located on the ground.
That's the Gate of the Brave.
It looks like a large golden platform hanging from a cliff, and the whole looks like a sharp scabbard, like the fortress of Valagarh, this Gate of the Brave is also full of Viku architectural style, the sculptures inside the Gate of the Brave are the same as those in Valhalla, with a hint of inherent pompousness, but overall, it is still an architectural marvel that shocks all mortals.
It is said that in ancient times, the Gate of the Brave was a place of sacrifice that communicated mortals and gods, and at that time, the gods of the Viku people, Odin and Hela, had not yet fought each other, so the souls of those chosen warriors also received the ritual of the transformation of the Heroic Spirit on the platform at the highest point of the Gate of the Brave in the carnival of the entire clan, which is said to be the greatest recognition that a Viku warrior could get in ancient times.
Unfortunately, after Hela and Loken teamed up to imprison Odin, there was no way for the Brave's Gate to hold the ancient Immortal Transformation Ritual.
Valagaar's authority was remotely locked by Ulduar's side, resulting in Odin and his entourage having no way to leave the range of the Sky Fortress, even if they came to the Gate of the Brave, Odin could only stand at the door, unable to leave the building even one step, of course, as the chief manager, Odin also has extremely high authority, although he can't leave Valgaral himself, he can make a projection of power to continue to guide the Viku clan in Stormfjord to develop their own civilization.
And constantly provide his Legion of the Immortals with enough strong warriors!
But this seal is not absolute, among all of Odin's followers, Vagri who is theoretically not a living creature can freely travel back and forth between Valagar and Valhalla, so in these tens of thousands of years, Odin's Valhalla has not stopped recruiting new soldiers.
Now, Hela has blatantly attacked Wallagar, which means that the outer seal has been broken, and Odin and his Legion of the Immortals are finally free to move, but unfortunately, when Heimdall and the army of the Immortals arrived on the platform of the Gate of the Brave, the most elite warbands of the Darkblade Legion were already waiting there.
"For the will of the Great Lord, kill!"
In the night sky, the pale Valkyries led by Annhald are armed with halberds and are fighting the golden Vagli who flew out of the fortress of Valagar, the number of Valkyries in Tyrion's hands is small, but each of them has received a huge amount of death power nourishment in the Death Realm, causing their combat power to skyrocket, each of them is a real elite unit.
On the other hand, the golden Vargri on Odin's side have existed as a recruiter of the Valhalla Legion for tens of thousands of years, just as Agatha complained to Tyrion at the beginning, the messengers who travel between the two realms do not need strong combat power, so in this air battle, although the Golden Varri is numerous, it is easily repelled by the 11 Valkyries as easily as chopping melons and vegetables.
Every now and then, golden stumps and glowing wings fall from the sky, looking miserable.
On the ground, a huge number of Hylagar and Kvadir Souls were used as the first wave of cannon fodder to storm the Hall of the Brave's Gate, but they were easily driven out by the Heroic Warriors led by the Immortal Warlord Heimdall.
It wasn't until these Heroic Warriors, whose bodies were wrapped in fine lightning bolts, forged from storm steel, and held sacred soldiers in their hands, appeared on the battlefield that the Death Lords, who led the Darkblade Legion to hold the line, realized why Hela was doing everything to increase the number of Kvadir's soldiers in order to fight against Odin's legions
Because the quality of the soldiers is really too poor.
Each of these heroic spirits is more than 5 meters tall and weighs several tons, wearing blessed thunder-forged armor, holding a war hammer or war sword like a siege weapon, and under that hideous helmet is a fearless and resolute steel face, and when they wield their weapons, there are all kinds of rune magic blessings, making them more destructive.
Under the command of the silver Heroic Spirit Heimdall, this Heroic Soul Legion of nearly 1,000 people was divided into several wings and separated in several directions, it seems that these Heroic Spirits are planning to completely recapture the position of the entire Brave Gate in one fell swoop, and this scene has completely fallen into the eyes of the military observation group in this battle.
"Look at them, these guys' bodies are made of the finest steel, what a luxury!"
Deathlord Luminas, who had been watching the battle, said to Iriel, who was beside him:
"They're coming! They are going to come with a counter-charge, trying to break up our positions! Calling Admiral Dai Lin! Call for fire support! ”
"By the way, take a look at the color of this Heroic Spirit Legion that has been blown into the sky!"
On the other side of Iriel, Glokush was on the other side of the mechanical axe, and the orc lord stared at the battlefield in front of him, he wanted to know how strong Odin's strongest army could be.
"Boom Boom"
After the Death Lord's request for fire support was issued, at the nearby estuary, the Dead Sea Fleet, which had already set up a formation, under the command of Dai Lin, quickly carried out a small-scale covering fire bombardment, thousands of shells roared through the air through the streamlined trajectory, and accurately smashed on the platform in front of the Gate of the Brave, the explosion when the bomb landed made this ridge shake, and the flames that ignited on the platform also involved the Kvadir legion who had no time to escape.
The scorching flames poured heat in all directions, and Luminas raised her palms to block the heat in front of her, and behind her, the strongest Hellfire warbands stood like walls of steel, their formations unshattered by the devastating bombardment.
A few minutes later, the bombardment ended, and the Blood Lord Myra wielded his magic and blew up a gust of wind to disperse the smoke of the battlefield, and the Kvardir Legion that had been caught up in the bombardment was almost completely wiped out, but in the center of the platform that had been completely blown flatten, even a gravel dent, hundreds of Heroes under the command of Heimdall were still standing!
"The Great Lord is above!"
After truly seeing the results in front of her, the tail of the lord Iriel, who was wearing a black battle helmet, straightened at this moment, and the orc lord beside her let out a surprised sigh.
Before their eyes, after the projection of devastating firepower that could destroy any of Azeroth's armies, the casualties of this Immortal Legion were not even visible to the naked eye
30 people!
These terrifying big men were able to easily avoid the terrifying covering shelling of the heavy firepower that had allowed the Darkblade Legion to run rampant through the world with just their steel bodies, and at most they only melted the bodies of these heroic spirits, but they did not harm the souls beneath their steel bodies at all.
"What was that?"
Heimdall, the most trusted lieutenant of Odin, the foremost general of the Valhallic Legion, moved his body, slapped his armor indifferently, and threw the fragments of several cannonballs on the ground, the 7-meter-tall steel Heroic Spirit looked at the Death Lords in front of him with an indifferent gaze, and he said in a voice like steel:
"Is it your attack? Not bad to make me feel, sort of"
"Hot!"
"Huh"
A sinister smile flashed across Heimdall's face under his horned heavy helmet, and the Storm Greatsword in his hand swung outward, and in the midst of the thunder, the Heroic Warrior pointed the blade in his hand at the Black Legion in front of him, and he shouted:
"Heroic Spirits! For Odin! Crush them! ”
"Boom"
Probably it was the success of the Darkblade's bombardment that aroused the interest of these steel heroes, perhaps it was the war temperament of the Darkblade Warband that made these heroes serious, in short, in the midst of these big men's wild running, between the swaying like an earthquake, the Darkblade Legion's front that no one had ever broken through also became precarious.
"I finally know why Hela's army that has been amassed for tens of thousands of years does not dare to recklessly fight Odin"
Grokush fastened his helmet to his head, he flicked his shoulders, lifted his mechanical axe, and rushed towards the heroic spirits who charged like the giants of the hills, followed by the Orcs charging with the lord's guard composed of the necromancers above the high knights, the real decisive force in the battle sequence of the Darkblade Legion.
"There is something about these Heroic Spirits, I admit they are strong! But they don't want to defeat the Darkblade! ”
Grokush picked up the mechanical power axe, and at the moment of approaching the silver heroic spirit Heimdall like a giant, he held the axe in both hands and jumped into the air, the heavy power of death wrapped around his body, between the scarlet lightning surges, the crazy and deadly death jump made Heimdall feel threatened, this heroic spirit swung the thunder greatsword, gathered the momentum of the charge on the long sword, like a shield, blocked Glokush's jump split.
But the other high-ranking knights were not so lucky
The 100 high-ranking knights who followed Glokush's charge were cut down by a third in the first encounter with the Immortal team, and on the Heroic Spirit's side, except for one hapless ghost who rushed too fast and was thrown down the ridge with the Death Knight with the Grip of Death, he was almost unscathed.
This direct collision gave the Death Lords a more intuitive understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Valhalla.
"Bang"
With a wave of Heimdall's sword, Glokush flipped in the air for a few weeks and landed on the ground, the ground under his feet shattered, and the orc looked at the mechanical power axe that was about to shatter in his hand, and while gathering the remaining knights, he shouted to Lumi and Irel behind him in the spirit link:
"Lumi! Retreat with your warband, and don't let the warriors come to your death! As much as I hate to admit it, ordinary infantrymen are indeed no match for these heroic spirits! ”
"Iriel! Send a message for the Death Guard to enter! ”
"Whoosh"
The hoof girl who completely watched the head-on collision in front of her did not hesitate to crush the crystal in her hand, and Lumi looked at the fierce heroes in front of her, she reluctantly raised her finger and asked the commanding knights to retreat with the soldiers of the Hellfire Band.
That's right, they are the most powerful and combative legion of the Darkblade's regular forces, but they are not qualified to enter the battle in front of them, and even if they really rush over, they will only be sent to their deaths, and the Hellfire Warband will be wiped out in a desperate manner, and they may be able to leave behind the hundreds of heroes in front of them, but that is an unnecessary sacrifice!
These veterans of the Dark Blade should not have fallen in such a battle.
"Sooner or later!"
Rumi stared at the fierce steel heroes in the battle ahead, this beautiful lord clenched the holy sword in her hand, she was unwilling! Someday, her Hellfire legion will be as powerful as these Heroic Spirits, no! Powerful beyond them!
"Whoosh Whoosh"
In the cool night, a sound like a meteorite falling sounded over the battlefield of the Brave's Gate, and Heimdall, who had forced Glokush back with a sword, raised his head, and in the sight of the Heroic Spirit, he easily saw the strange warriors falling from below the black fortress in the sky.
Each of them was wrapped in black steel armor, but underneath the steel armor came an aura that made Heimdall feel familiar.
"Boom"
The black-armored warrior who fell first smashed into the position of the Gate of the Brave, the ground cracked, the masonry splashed everywhere, and with the movement of the mechanical gears, the black iron armor turned outward, revealing the body made of the rock below and the face that resembled the Draenei, a female warrior, on her armor, painted with the head of a strange tin man.
"Tear up"
The rock knight drew the dragoon spear behind him, and in the surge of death power, the tip of the spear danced with pale lightning, and behind her, hundreds of rock knights who smashed into the battlefield activated their weapon systems, and the death guards of the Darkblade Legion armed with huge steel hand cannons, and in the roaring explosion like cannonballs, they fought fiercely into the battlefield.
"Samara!"
Deathlord Irel jumped onto the Tin Man's shoulder, and with the blue fury behind her, she reached out and tapped the rock knight's head, and she whispered:
"Watch out for that silver giant, he's not easy to deal with!"
"Don't worry! My baby."
The Draenei Banshee, who was manipulating the Rock Knight, let out a smug laugh, she grabbed the dragoon spear, and rushed to the battlefield like a mount carrying Irel on her shoulder, the Rock Knight's body swelled rapidly, and when it became as tall as those steel heroes, she shouted and swung her fist, smashing a steel spirit to the ground, and the Draenei banshee screamed:
"If we join forces, we can beat him hard!"
————————————————————————
At the same time as the Rock Knight and the Iron Heroic Spirit were fighting, at the edge of the platform of the Dark Temple, the High Lord took his eyes away from the fierce battle below, and he said with some regret:
"Flesh and blood can't compete with steel in the end, even if it's a rock, it's not as hard as steel, and sure enough, the upgrade of the Heroic Spirit is the future of the Dark Blade."
Behind the High Lord, a communicator leading directly to the Titan city of Ulduar was working, and Tyrion turned his head to look at the communicator, and he whispered:
"Aren't you alright? The Great Guardian? ”
"With your permission, it shouldn't be difficult to remotely lock the control of the remaining Valhalla, right?"
"It's not difficult, my lord."
Lai's somewhat distorted voice came from the communication, and the Great Guardian's voice was slightly low at this time, as if he was hesitating, and a little difficult to speak:
"But my other brothers, they hope that Odin will survive I know that we have made a deal, but"
"Odin must die! That's what we say! ”
Tyrion categorically rejected the Great Guardian's request, the atmosphere became frozen at this moment, and after a few seconds of stalemate, a cold light flashed in the High Lord's narrowed eyes, Rai may be trustworthy, but it seems that the other Guardians don't seem to understand the preciousness of life, then it's no wonder, after all, they haven't experienced the horror of death firsthand
The Great Lord shook his head and waved his hand with some interest:
"Alas, how can you change what has been said, your willfulness is really a headache, but forget it"
"You're a friend, so I'll take a step back, I'll give you the core of Odin's thinking to those "brothers" now, lock that permission! ”
