Chapter Eighty-Eight: First Contact
Locke sat in the back and watched the picture of the gargoyle coming from the front line, his expression was solemn, and this ticket suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and the human cavalry with silver armor and the pattern of the Holy Angel appeared on the battlefield, and the number was about 100.
At the front of the group, a priest in the middle of the golden period led them as if they were in a no-man's land, directly crushing the scattered orcs and speeding forward - they seemed to pay no attention to the orcs around them.
However, after seeing the ghouls in black armor and exuding an evil aura all over their bodies, the knights immediately changed direction, and after leaving the battlefield, they all turned around and shouted and rushed towards the place where the ghouls were most numerous.
"Good time!" Locke looked at the sudden group of paladins and sneered, "The orcs have almost been killed, it's time for a change of taste!" ”
This is the first time to fight with the forces of light, that is, from this moment, the struggle between Castlevania and the forces of light and darkness has really begun.
The ghouls, under the command of Locke, divided into two waves at the moment when the cavalry regiment rushed in, and the scene was like a school of sardines in the face of a shark attack, instantly dispersed and quickly closed, and the overall look was quite spectacular, which caused the knights who were constantly rampage inside to not even touch a monster's claw.
Except for the leading priest, the other paladins all belong to the melee category, that is, in addition to adding various buffs to themselves, the rest are like ordinary knights with knives and slashes.
The last lord lost in the melee unit that did not have a hard fight with the paladin, and the death knight can only be said to be on par with the paladin regardless of speed, defense, and skill, but the paladin has various holy light buffs, and the death knight is quite difficult to fight.
But now, after leveling up, the huge ghouls really haven't been afraid of anyone in melee situations!
The paladins at high speed charged back and forth among the ghouls, and were surprised to find that the monsters, after dodging several times in a row, began to run with them on both sides of their cavalry team, yes, like guards.
What's going on?
Just when the group of paladins were still wondering, suddenly, the ghouls gathered on the right side and turned around and pounced on the knights, instantly tearing a large number of human bodies off the horse's back, grabbing them and throwing them at the monster group next to them.
It's like the insect-mutilated Marine in Starship - the typical gore of monster movies.
The current ghouls are no longer as thin as before, and when they are all in the middle of the third order, each of them looks like a huge man, not only has long and sharp claws, but the black armor on their bodies is crumbled like a straitjacket by the full muscles inside, so they also have the ability of a rudimentary beast - collision and slashing.
After a series of impacts, the entire team of 100 Paladins was torn into several sections, and the number of people was reduced by 80%, while the ghouls were still grinning and following both sides of the team.
The expressions of each one looked full of sarcasm, which inevitably made the leading priest even more angry - no dark monster had ever dared to be so arrogant since ancient times, and this was almost a face! No! This is already a face ride!
Listening to the screams of his subordinates being dragged under the horse by the surrounding monsters, the priest suddenly became angry, pulled out the holy sword in his hand and slashed at the black-armored monster that was laughing next to him, a burst of brilliance flashed, only at that moment, a whole row of ghouls were immediately slashed away by this sword qi, although the damage was absorbed by the armor, but this also really made Locke frown - sure enough, you can't be careless when facing high-level divine units - it doesn't matter how many enemies die, but you can't die on your own side!
War only kills others, how can there be a reason to kill one's own people!
Immediately restrained his playful mentality, controlling all the ghouls to pounce the paladins one by one, and when only the last light pole commander was left, Locke immediately summoned 8 flying vampires in the sky to throw blood pools below, and all the ghouls on the ground around him moved away to let them continue to hunt the scattered orcs.
Suddenly, a series of deafening explosions sounded along the prairie, and after the red smoke passed, a puddle of red substance that corroded all the life around the ground was left on the ground, but the amazing thing was that when the blood pool skill was close to the priest's surroundings, it was instantly evaporated—even the war horse on his body was glowing—the light guardian continued to protect him and the war horse from the erosion of darkness.
The strength of the Divine System lies in the light magic, which can easily resist the attack of dark magic.
However, they are unable to withstand physical attacks, such as the savage charge of ghouls.
In addition, their Holy Light-type attack spells also do not work on lifeforms such as humans or orcs.
"Taste this! Damn the Devil!! With a shout from the priest, a thick light like a searchlight quickly burst out of his hand and rushed straight into the vampires in the sky who circled around him like bees.
In an instant, the whole body of the blood law illuminated by that holy light began to smoke, and this thing ignored the armor robe on the vampire's body, and directly acted on the blood law's body, instantly making them as painful as if they were being burned.
"Withdraw!" Locke quickly summoned all 8 vampires back away.
And the straight and thick 'searchlight', after losing its target, began to sweep at the surrounding ghouls, although the distance is too far and the power is not very good, but all the ghouls that are swept will still emit white smoke like vampires.
Locke watched the picture silently, without speaking, keeping all the ghouls out of the 'searchlight''s attack range.
As for himself, he put away Anne on his shoulders, put on the closed cavalry helmet, and led the 100 skeleton knights wearing the Fenrir cavalry emblem around him to gallop towards the single knighted priest.
A murderous look!
After the surrounding monsters retreated, the priest who was alone in the grassland on a white horse reached out with difficulty to take off his helmet, and under his brown hair, his cheeks soaked in sweat were as white as a dead man—his divine power was overused, and he was overdrawn to the point of consuming the source of his life.
After seeing that there were no monsters around him, the priest began to sit on the back of his horse and pray secretly - demons restore magic through souls or the moon, humans rely on the moon or potions, and the divine system can pray sincerely in their hearts.
Just as the priest was panting and holding his hands and closing his eyes in prayer, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, opened his eyes, and was suddenly happy.
It's the "Fenrir Patrol"!
Looking at the cavalry that was getting closer and closer in the distance, the priest rode up with joy...... (To be continued)
