Chapter 70: The Battle of Lordaeron (6)
"Line up!"
"Raise your shield!"
In the ruins of Lordaeron, various defensive orders arose one after another in the sound of fighting.
The Crusaders who had retreated to the palace finally regrouped and temporarily withstood the frantic onslaught of the undead.
"Thousands of people were killed in a matter of moments...... It's all my fault that I didn't perceive the undead's plot. Alfred Abydis, gray-haired, looked sad and remorseful.
The location of his previous battle was not far from the palace, so he was able to quickly retreat into the ruins of the palace with his army.
However, Da Sohan and Mograini, who rushed too fast, failed to retreat!
"What about Garethos' troops?" Su Chen frowned and asked.
"That guy screamed the hardest, but when he attacked, he rushed the slowest, his troops had been hiding behind, some of them had not even entered the city, and when the undead rushed out of the ground, I saw that his troops seemed to immediately turn around and flee to the southeast." Abidis said indignantly.
Although he had guessed that this would be the case, when he was really faced at this moment, Su Chen was still extremely depressed in his heart.
However, the current situation does not allow him to hold Nagarisos accountable, because the crazy attack of the undead has begun again!
This time, however, there was already a hideous abomination, and the venom-dripping abomination was like a small green mountain of meat, making the ground tremble as it swarmed up.
"Can't let these plague and poison guys come close, knight, charge!" Abidis roared and rushed out first.
The Holy Light was constantly shining in the ranks, and it was the Paladins who had prayed for the blessings of the Holy Light before the Great War.
However, even with the blessing of the Holy Light, it is still extremely dangerous to fight these abominations with venom flowing from their bodies, not to mention that many of them will explode when they are on the verge of death, and they are extremely lethal.
Just after the first round of charge, many knights have fallen, including several paladins.
"Get out of here." Su Chen said to Medirli as he put on his helmet.
Her strength is good, but the Rogue class is not suitable for such a clan fight, especially against the undead.
"You...... Are you going to fight too? ”
"Well, don't forget I'm a paladin too." Su Chen smiled, the blessing of the holy light had flashed on his body, and then he rushed towards the swarming enemy with the other knights.
Frostmourn is still razor-sharp, and even if its attributes conflict with the power of the Light, its own sharpness is sufficient.
The great abomination was easily sliced under the cold blade like tofu, and its clumsy movements had no time to fight back before it fell, and the other undead could not get close at all.
In terms of the speed at which monsters can be killed, Frostmourn should be no worse than Ember Bringer!
"Your Royal Highness, don't rush too fast, we're about to break away from the big army." Renault, who had been guarding Su Chen's side, said breathlessly.
Su Chen couldn't help but turn his head to look at the future boss in the Scarlet Monastery, but now he is still too young, and his personality has not become distorted, and he still belongs to an excellent young paladin.
"Scarlet Abbey...... I don't know if it will appear again......" Su Chen stopped.
Behind him is the wreckage of the undead!
But ahead is still a tidal wave of undead.
"You have to break through as soon as possible!" Su Chen thought secretly.
With frost sorrow in hand, he may not be afraid of these ordinary undead, but the many soldiers around him are constantly falling.
In the rear, Ethan Leon was directing the priests to chant sacred hymns.
The Holy Light continued to ripple into the battlefield amid the hymns, allowing a large number of wounded soldiers to recover quickly, and even to continue fighting immediately, barely able to withstand the army of the undead.
However, the power of the Holy Light is not omnipotent, and this method of rapid healing is largely overdrawing the life force of the injured person in advance.
The priests in the rear seemed to be relaxed, but the continuous use of healing techniques consumed a lot of mental power, and soon some weaker priests could not support it and collapsed to the ground, and even Ethan Lien, who was a high-ranking priest, was already sweating profusely.
"Let's hold on a little longer, and when Da Sohan and them come back, they will break through immediately!" Su Chen wielded the Frost Sorrow, constantly rushing back and forth on the battlefield to support the other knights.
There were more and more corpses piling up in front of the palace, most of them left behind by the undead, and the ground was already full of foul blood and venom, and the smell of blood in the air was suffocating.
The so-called mountain of corpses and sea of bones is nothing more than that......
When Su Chen also felt a little exhausted, Tailan, who was covered in blood, finally rushed back out of breath.
Behind him was Alexandros Mograini, who was also dishevelled in hair, and the Ashbringer in his hand was much darker.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry......" As soon as he approached, Old Mograini knelt directly at Su Chen's feet.
The sound of the armor hitting the ground frightened Su Chen, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Lord Lord, get up quickly." ”
"It's all because I was carried away by the successive victories, and didn't take His Highness's advice, so I fell into the ambush of these undead, and the hundreds of knights who fought with me were all killed......" Old Mograine did not stand up, but cried bitterly with remorse.
Su Chen had already seen that there were very few soldiers returning with Mograine and Tyran, and it was obvious that the battle ahead was even more brutal and bloody.
"What about Da Sohan? Have you ever seen him? Su Chen found that there was no Da Suohan among the people who returned.
"No ......" Tyran shook his head, his voice was a little hoarse after the fierce battle: "Lord Dasuohan may rush deeper, and may even kill into the huge crypt near the lake in front, after finding Lord Mograine, our physical strength is exhausted, we can only barely kill all the way back, Lord Dasuohan is strong, maybe we can break through and rush back soon......"
"You've done a good job, worthy of the title of Paladin, and I'm sure your father will be proud of you." Su Chen patted him on the shoulder with appreciation, and then continued: "But now the situation is critical, the priests are almost unable to hold on, once there is no treatment from the priest, our defenses are only afraid that they will collapse immediately, so we have no time to continue to wait for Lord Dasuohan to rush back, you and Lord Mograine will immediately lead everyone to break through." ”
"Nada Sohan...... Otherwise, if I stay, even if I die in battle, I will wait until he dies. Mograine gritted his teeth.
Su Chen immediately shook his head and said, "The crusader breakthrough still needs your command, as for Da Suohan...... I'll stay and pick him up. ”
"Your Highness, how can you stay? Your status is honorable, so I should stay and pick up Lord Dasuohan. Tyran exclaimed.
Su Chen immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, my strength is not bad, I can kill the Dreadlord when I am in Northrend, and I will not be stupid enough to die here, I also have a teleportation scroll of Dalaran on my body, if I really can't resist it, I will use the magic scroll to teleport to Dalaran, and then try to return to the Valley of the Hearth to join you, you remember to save your strength and don't attack recklessly." ”
There was indeed a teleportation scroll of Dalaran on Su Chen's body, which was one of the trading chips that Elicia used to cooperate with the dark side of the moon when she was under the pseudonym of Van Sara.
However, what happened later took a turn for the worse, and the cooperation between the two sides turned into a use, and eventually turned into hostility, and the precious teleportation scroll was given to Su Chen by Elucia when he left Keldaron.
