Chapter 570: Nancy's Court
Nancy's Elven Court should be the best city to combine grandeur and beauty. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Elves' architectural style has developed to its zenith, and it is a completely different style from Orinen.
The overall architecture of Orinaidu is very natural and quiet. Most of the buildings are in harmony with the trees and the forest. There are individual places, such as temples or halls, which, although independent of the forest, are in style and color in harmony with the surrounding environment. The first impression that people get when they enter Orinadu is harmony and nature.
And the Nancy Court is a different style.
The whole city is a mixture of red, gold, and white, which is completely different from the light blue and light green tones of Orinedu. Magnificent and magnificent, it shows the unique aesthetic value of the High Elves.
Of course, all of this is now in ruins.
The Nancy royal court, which should have been shining under the sun and flourishing forever, was only left with ruins. Filthy undead have defiled this polished city, and disgusting undead monsters roam the city.
Over the city, a fierce battle is underway.
A large number of gargoyles, along with three or five skeletal dragons, are besieging Hindlaire's air force.
In fact, Michaud didn't know what kind of purpose these humans, elves, and dragons came to Nancy.
As the fourth seat of the Council of the Cursed Church, he and Claostraz became the only two remaining leaders of the Church of the Damned, following the deaths of Chief Kegel and Third Seat Thurfield.
He and Clae Ostraz had no idea that the Church's campaign on the Eastern Front would deteriorate to such an extent.
At the end of the day, it's their underestimation of Sindlaire's strong rise. Originally, it was thought that with about 150,000 group troops deployed on the Eastern Front, it could basically steadily sweep half the world from the direction of Broken Dragon Peak, but even Emhar had never been, and in the end it was pushed back by the Sindelares.
But, in any case, their initial plan was achieved, and Kegel brought about the temporary failure of the guardianship of the Central Mountains at his own sacrifice.
Immediately after Kegel's death, Michaud received the news. He put aside the fighting on the Western Front of the Church and left Clyostraz alone in charge, while he himself returned to Nancy as fast as he could, and began to preside over the Awakening of the Undead.
This was the arrangement that the Church of the Damned had done when it corrupted the court of Nancy. Almost the entire dark jungle has been shrouded in a huge necromancy barrier.
As soon as the guardian effect of the Central Mountain Range disappeared, Michaud immediately activated this huge barrier, and within a few days, more than 300,000 undead had already been awakened, and at this rate, a month was enough to awaken 1.5 million undead!
Moreover, this result is already irreversible. When the gods came, they didn't expect to be able to destroy the barrier that had enveloped the entire dark jungle within a month.
So, why did the Sindelaretes send such a team of more than 1,000 people to rush to Nancy?
Michaud expressed deep puzzlement.
Regardless, he doesn't plan to show up. Kegel and Seffield are both dead, and Michaud thinks that his strength may be worse than that of the Death Knight, how dare he show up in front of Dane and the other four legends?
He instructed the undead air force to come forward and intercept it, but it seemed that it could not be intercepted. The two bone dragons were wiped out the moment they met with Hindlaire's team, and even the legendary powerhouses of the people didn't even make a move, just the dragon breath of the green dragons and the angels who rushed forward completed the second kill.
Completely unstoppable, under Michaud's surveillance spell, he looked at the group of Hindlairees, and after clearing the sky above the central area of Nancy's royal court, he landed in front of the elven king's hall in the past.
The champion knights jumped off their mounts, and without their mounts, they were quite strong in foot combat.
The knights on foot were the first to rush into the hall of the Elven King, and behind, supported by the spellcasters' various spells, as well as the wild druids, who then turned into all kinds of beasts and joined the battle.
The undead troops in the hall of the elven king are not very many, only one or two hundred, after all, this hall used to be the council hall of the high-ranking members of the Nancy royal court, although the scale is not small, but it can't hold too many people.
There were a lot of black knights and vampires inside, but they were quickly wiped out under the strong attack of the champion knights and druids.
Subsequently, the humans and elves began to build a line of defense. The knights stood guard outside the hall, with Grom and Muken in charge. In the rear, the caster team of druids and mages is also ready for battle. In the sky, griffins, scorpions, dragons, and angels are all flying, blocking incoming enemies in the air and ready to support ground battles at any time.
The number of champion knights is indeed not much, only about two hundred. After all, it was indeed not an easy task to airlift troops across half of the Broken Dragon Peak and the Dark Jungle.
However, in this battle, the terrain was indeed very favorable to Sindlaire's assault forces.
The entrance to the main hall, the exquisite arched bridge, is only a little wide. Although there is a large influx of undead, the enemies that the champion knights face at the same time are relatively limited. In the face of the long-range attack of some skeleton archers and some corpse demons, there are also the caster teams behind to help carry it down with various means.
What's more, the angels and green dragons in the sky will support them from time to time. The angels will directly attack the ranged units of the undead, skeleton archers, and the corpses. The huge holy sword slashed down with a strong holy light, and a large number of low-level undead would be melted in this holy light.
At the same time, soaring dragons, spewing out dragon breath in the sky, destroying swath of enemies.
The battle continued, and looking at the current situation, the undead had no chance to break through the defense line of the Hindlaires on the Elven Arch Bridge for a while, let alone rush into the Elven King's Palace.
But, despite this, Michaud still didn't understand what these guys were up to.
What's in the Hall of the Elven King? The legendary Dark Archmage carefully recalled it, and was sure that there was nothing of value in it except for some exquisite artifacts that had been destroyed and polluted again and again, and belonged to the elven realms of the past.
Could it be that His Majesty the Great Dane, with such an elite army, came to the Nancy court with four legends, just to grab some elven artifacts and go back?
Well...... Those things brought back to the human world should indeed be very valuable.
