Although this world has true gods, mages, as well as powerful monsters and other strong and various external planes, but the main body and cornerstone of the ruling society are still those ordinary people who have no strength or are not strong enough, so the nobles still have to build castles, train armies, wars between nobles, turmoil in the territory, and those who are like rats everywhere goblins, kobolds, bear goblins and other alien races.

But the strong are above the world of ordinary people because of their own strength, and the existence of those with extraordinary power is almost enough to determine the outcome of a local war, so Shepard, who is suspected of being a 'high-level warlock', can get the courtesy of the nobles, because strength is indeed everything.

The flags and insignia of the nobles shone in the sun, the forest near the castle was cut down to most of it, and all kinds of ladders and engineering vehicles were made, and the Salibotta family did not have many bows and arrows and archers in the castle because the main force was not here, and the moat was not dug around the castle because of the terrain, so it can be said that there was not much hope for the castle to be defended inside and outside the castle.

With the help of the nearby trees, the soldiers cut down the big trees and built a four- or five-meter-high viewing platform, which was Shepard's proposal, and the Earl took his cronies and Shepard to the viewing platform, which not only avoided the attack range of the castle, but also opened up the line of sight.

"Baron Preel, though you are a warlock, you have the wisdom of a mage." The Count of Vast, who had also been in the army, was immediately aware of its benefits when he got on this stage.

Shepard smiled when he heard this, and Viscount Dures on the side answered: "Shepard, you are actually a warlock, I always thought you were a mage. ”

Shepard smiled and said, "I never said I was a mage. ”

Actually, I'm not even human...... He said silently in his heart.

Viscount Dureth was dumbfounded and said, "Well, you really didn't say it. ”

Count Vast looked at the sky and said aloud: "It's almost time, let everyone get ready, I will ask for the grace of the goddess in half an hour, and after that, Baron Preel, will trouble you." ”

"Of course." Faced with the Count's untraceable temptation, Shepard responded calmly.

……

In the prepared tent, the altar dedicated to the goddess of doom, Bunsaba, has been placed, and the emblem and teachings of the goddess are carefully carved on the altar, although no icons have been placed, but the four priests of the goddess of doom stand around the altar and silently pray to the goddess.

The Count, who wore a cloak with the emblem of the goddess, walked to the altar with a solemn face, knelt on the ground reverently, and prayed in a low voice full of piety and humility: "My lord, the ruler of doom, we can only avoid the power of doom by asking you for protection......

As the prayers progressed, a strange atmosphere suddenly descended on the castle, and even the soldiers who were on guard for the attack began to look at each other, asking if their comrades had also noticed the strange feeling.

Shepard did not take a sword at this time, but took a bow and arrow in his hand, although he is a 'warlock', but the warlock and the mage have never had any necessary connection, although the Prell family has never heard of any strong ancestors in the ancestor, but to a person like him who is suspected of being excluded from the family back then, it is not a rare thing to come back to take revenge when he encounters an adventure, human nature is like this, as long as there is power, someone will believe what you say.

The invisible wind of divine power fell from the sky, quietly and invisibly cursed the people in the entire castle, and he secretly experienced this strange and inexplicable but very powerful divine power, and hid himself as much as possible, showing only professional strength and physical strength.

The unpredictable feeling gradually settled down, and all the people on the attacking side felt relieved, but when they looked at the castle, the strange and unfortunate feeling became even more distinct, making many people subconsciously shiver.

"The Power of Doom ......"

The sudden wind blew the cloak on Shepard's body and hunted, but when he heard a scream, he suddenly heard a scream, and saw from afar that a sentry on the top of the castle was defenseless, and was slipped by the feet of the sudden wind, and fell from the top of the castle dozens of meters high!

This time not only frightened the other side, but even his own side was frightened, but fortunately, the nobles appeased quite well, so that their personal soldiers and guards finally believed that the earl would not let his side be unlucky.

Shepard turned around and saw the Count striding out, and saw the Count staring at him from afar, and he turned around and drew his bow and arrows, and the flames immediately ignited, and the purification and divine aura were wrapped around the bow and arrows, and a trace of divine power was hidden in it.

He let out a soft shout, and the bow inherited by the elves was pulled into a full moon by him, and as soon as he let go, the arrow flew hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, and crashed unstoppably into the gate of the castle!

Rumble!

The loud sound of the earth-shattering sound came, and the sturdy and thick gates of the castle were shaken by the arrows, and countless dust and stones fell from the castle, and the shock even shook the nearby city walls, and a miserable scream sounded one after another, but many guards fell to the ground in panic.

Originally, the curse that Count Vaster prayed for the power of doom could not be seen, but Shepard's arrow really shocked everyone, and the cheers on the side of the Eastern Route Army rang out, which can be described as a great morale boost.

But seeing that the smoke and dust had cleared, the gate of the castle was indeed strong, and although a large hole had been broken, it was still firmly fixed to the gate, and even if the soldiers rushed over, there was no hope of breaking through the gate.

Shepard's face was solemn, but he slowly pulled the longbow away......

"This power is the bloodline of celestial creatures? Or is it from a certain highness...... "Feeling the divine aura in Shepard's arrow, the instinct of the patron of the gods made the Count of Vaster have more speculation, but there is a natural opposition between the greed and selfishness of the nobility and the selfless devotion required by the theocracy, and this is no exception in Tessel, if it were not for the goddess of doom, Bensaba, who has always been an uncaring person, the earl would not have believed in the goddess so devoutly.

A dazzling arrow was shot again, and the castle gate was about to suffer another doom, only to hear an angry shout, a tall and powerful figure wearing full body armor suddenly jumped up from the head of the city, and met the arrow shot by Shepard.

The power of divine purification suddenly exploded, and several layers of magical defense on the armored figure shone in a few moments before they were annihilated, but the tall figure who jumped off the city just didn't say a word, and let the arrows crash into the body with the remaining strength, and the loud sound of strong light followed, and when the light disappeared, only the tall figure stood in front of the city gate with a slight embarrassment, but there was no trace of scars on his body.

Shepard narrowed his eyes slightly, and his vision sharper than that of a goshawk allowed him to catch the invisible shield of power on the knight's armor in a flash of bright light, and it was this power, along with the knight's armor, that blocked the purifying and fiery power of his arrow.

"Epic [War Knight]? Even if you guess incorrectly, you must not be far behind. ”

As he thought about it, the gate behind the knight opened a little halfway, and a group of knights and castle guards rushed out, until more than two hundred people stood behind the knight.

Shepard showed his hands, naturally he would not fight for the life of others anymore, he only said loudly in the direction of Count Vast: "Your Excellency! To be able to block my attack so easily, the other party must be an epic knight! In addition to him, there should be a mage in the castle who is not lower than the intermediate level! ”

If you don't pull out these two or more nails, even if all the six thousand Eastern Route Army are buried here, you won't be able to take this castle, Count Vaster will naturally not be so unwise, he snorted coldly: "Baron Preel, please go back first, we still need you to leave some strength to deal with that mage." ”

In fact, Shepard had accumulated enough divine power for him to blast the knights and the castle gates into powder with one stone, but how could he do such a thankless task? Naturally, he retreated into the nobles, and just looking at the shocked and awe-inspiring expressions of the other nobles, he knew that his purpose of showing force had been achieved, at least he swallowed the city of Bloster, and unless Tesser's defeat, there would never be any more changes.

In front of the castle, the knights on the Salibotta side rode a war horse that was pulled over by his entourage, driving the war horse closer to the side of the Eastern Route Army, and more than 200 people behind him also followed, leading more than a dozen knights to be fully armed, and it seemed that they also had an awe-inspiring military momentum.

The epic powerhouse of the [War Knight] profession who was suspected of specializing in battlefield killing stood proudly, and his thunderous voice could be heard from afar: "The Salibota family, Thomson Salibota!" What gave you the courage to attack the territory of the ancient House of Salibota, Invaders of Tesser? ”

'Thomson? The murderous count nicknamed "Typewriter"? It seems that the head of the Salibotta family is indeed not unprepared to leave the other earl of the family's pillar here. ’

When Shepard heard the other party's name, he immediately thought of the information in the game in his previous life, the [Wind Plains Town] of the Salibotta family is under the name of this earl, and he is a twin brother with the Count of Findoli, who is the master of the house, if it weren't for this, he should be the patriarch as an epic powerhouse.

Earl Vast sneered a few times, and his words were cold and unceremonious: "Thomson Salibota? You damned vulture, executioner of the battlefield, you led your army to plunder the caravans of my territory during the civil strife in the kingdom of Tesser, four years ago, don't you know to me? ”

Earl Thomson was silent for a while, and then suddenly let out a wild laugh: "It turned out to be you!" Vast Popple? Ah, this sweet smell of hatred, your favorite little son, is also in that caravan? ”

Count Vaster gritted his teeth and said, "That's right, my youngest son Charim, and my loyal knight and butler, you butcher slaughtered more than a hundred people, and not a single one was released!" ”

Earl Thomson's wild laughter is very similar to the perverted style caused by the [battlefield sequelae] that is common to war knights: "More than that, right? I'll also cut off the heads of your youngest son, and your knights, and strip them naked and send them back to you, hahaha......"

"Your Excellency...... My lord, the other party must be trying to make you lose your mind in this way, please don't fall for it......" Viscount Dures looked at the count's hateful appearance worriedly, and couldn't help but persuade.
