Chapter 111: Gear Up and Set Off
In the common understanding, the combination of swords and magic has always been well known, for example, many swordsmen in mercenary groups can familiarly use some magic as an auxiliary to help swordsmen better kill enemies. This type of swordsman has also been introduced before, and it is called a magic swordsman.
However, there is a reason why the combination of swords and magic is well known, because the length and range of the sword are relatively limited, for example, the sword has a sword domain, and the knife naturally has a knife surface. Such skills are due to the training of knives, swords and other weapons like the extension of the arm. This allows them to manipulate spells with ease.
However, mages who use throwing weapons are really rare on the continent of Alelast, not that they can't, but the wide range and coverage of throwing weapons are beyond the reach of ordinary people. In addition, this kind of weapon requires extremely accurate accuracy in order to be lethal in one move, so from the combination of the two angles, it is not only necessary to control the range after it flies out, but also to concentrate and hold its breath, subtly control its accurate concentration of the target, plus the application of magic, which will cost the magician a lot of mana,
So very few people generally do this. From this point of view, this archmage is probably also a very powerful character.
Alan looked at it from afar, and Ilt was already rolling up his sleeves on the side, as if he was very eager to try, Alan retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at him, patted him on the shoulder and said,
"If you're so obsessed with magic, why didn't you join the Mage Tower in the first place? Instead, he chose to get the title of 'Holy Demon Swordsman'? ”
"The profession of mage, in fact, can't be done alone after all."
Ilt tugged at his neckline and continued,
"No matter how powerful a mage is, at the beginning of the battle, he will definitely take the lead, whether he needs to chant or not, the premise is still 'a powerful mage', but the mage is completely unable to deal with a protracted battle. Removing the Lingge, the spell itself cannot be sustained, there must be a bounded skill, have you ever seen the fireball technique, the hurricane technique, and the non-stop casting, obviously impossible. It doesn't matter if you're a force of nature, or sorcery, or even dark magic. This alone has greatly limited the output of the mage. What does a mage pay attention to? Lingge, essence, law, god, and cage are all spiritual power. This is different from the swordsman, even if the swordsman's mental power is completely depleted, but the weapon is still there, and the cold weapon is a good partner who can kill the enemy without your mana! As long as the muscles form a memory, a knife down, it is still a force to split mountains and rivers. But the mage is different, what does the mage use? Crystal balls, codes, and staffs are generally just used as a tool for casting spells, and if the mage is mentally exhausted, then those weapons are just ornaments, and they are not as good as a child. Do you want to smash people with crystal balls? So, the magic swordsman is the best class! ”
Ilt gushed, but Tia shook her head vigorously in the carriage,
"What you're talking about is indeed the weakness of mages, but, true archmages, the magic weapons they use are containers rich in deep mana, and mana can constantly urge spell skills. And a really good mage knows how to control and retain his strength! They also have a wealth of combat experience, and when they see the moves, they will not pin their hopes on endless spell casting, but will deliver a devastating blow at the right time! The Mage Tower has also invented a source of spells to replenish mana a long time ago, although it can only control the range within the royal capital now, but it will definitely do better in the future! The mages are all killed with a single blow, and they will never enter into the assumption of 'tug-of-war' as you said, so it is not as useless as you say. ”
"Tia, I'm not useless as a mage, I just don't have that much time to become such a great mage, that's all."
"Ilte..."
Tia didn't expect that Ilte's concerns turned out to be a secret he had been hiding before, and she was suddenly at a loss as to how to proceed.
Alan looked at the atmosphere as if it was a little delicate, and with his left hand he stopped Ilte, and with his right hand he grabbed the window of Tia's carriage, and said loudly,
"Our team is a team that is very good in magic, swordsmanship, and physical skills, and no difficulty can overcome us!"
With Allen's encouragement, Tia and Ilt both nodded heartily, the corners of their mouths turned up slightly, they knew Allen's intentions, and they also understood that in the face of curse and fate, friends and lovers are the most important existence!
After the mage team, they are still knights of the Paladin, but as you can see from the armor, they are members of the second detachment. Then there is the area where Eren and the others are standing, wearing special armor, the strongest detachment of the King's Knights, the "Knights of Zero".
"Knights of Zero" is the deputy head of the Knights of the Rose, Larbamonto as the captain of the Holy Guardian Order, a total of twelve knights, each of whom is the elite of the elite, and the "Knights of Zero" is not like the rest of the knights, using a hereditary system, that is, the son can replace his father to join the Knights, as the so-called, "The knight of the king is the glory of the family". However, the Knights of "Zero" have passed hellish tests and training before they can qualify as reserves, and can only be replenished after the older generation retires or dies in battle.
All the teams were now ready to go, waiting for the king's orders. Not far away, King John and Queen Helena rode King John's mighty and special mount, the Holy Cross Giant Armored Dragon, to the front of the crowd. Yes, it was a dragon.
"Friends of Athenia, please sound the trumpet for our departure! I wish us prosperity and victory! ”
King John stood on the dragon's back and let out a loud sound, and the Holy Cross dragon roared in the sky, and at the same time, a scorching flame shot into the sky in his throat, implying that the road ahead was bright and everything was going well.
The procession kept in formation and slowly moved forward to the gate of the royal city, where the Kingdom Guard of Honor and the Kingdom Moon Dance retreated to the city as the procession walked out of the capital gate, and Queen Helena said goodbye to King John, Allen, and Ilt gently, and finally came to the carriage and hugged Tia. Escorted by the first detachment of the Knights of the Rose, they bid farewell to everyone and returned to the royal city.
The farewell ceremony simply ended there.
King John rode a giant armored dragon and led Allen, Tia, and Ilt, along with the remaining two teams of knights and four mages, towards the port of Gale Wind, east of the royal capital.
