Chapter 502: A Miracle in Progress
The bones of the dark god were indeed hidden under the cathedral, but now they are not there, when the cathedral was destroyed, the chosen ones destroyed the magic array that suppressed the leakage of the divine power of the god bones, so that the Bresson master who rushed over to clean up the mess easily felt the abnormal fluctuations under the temple, and it didn't take long for the Brisson people to dig up the ruins of the cathedral and move all the treasures hidden in the underground of the Temple of Light back to the Bresson Palace.
At that time, the Dark Empire had already revealed its ambitions for Bresson, and the best thing for the Bresson royal family to do was to sacrifice this divine bone, even if it made the Dark Empire pay some price, it would definitely be able to exchange for the friendship of the Dark Empire. But the arrogant Emperor Bresson rejected the proposal, and he gave the bone with a little bit of flesh to his son. There are actually quite a few people in the Bresson Empire who practice dark magic, whether they are the Chosen or the natives, dark magic is very much in line with their appetites. Since the appearance of the Divine Bone in the Imperial Palace, the people of the Bresson royal family who practice dark magic have benefited a lot. But what they didn't know was that they had also lost a lot of things during this time, such as life force, but this loss was silent and they didn't notice it.
In order to use the pure dark divine power on the divine bone to cultivate, the prince did not ban the environment where the divine bone was located again, he only set up a few magic arrays to prevent the divine power from escaping, this kind of magic array could not qualify the divine bone to exude divine power fluctuations, and the dark dragoons of the Dark Empire had already clearly felt the fluctuations of the dark divine power as soon as they arrived at the periphery of Chongqiu City. The Dark Dragoons simply didn't go to the cathedral and flew directly outside the Bresson Palace. The Dark Empire sends an emissary to demand that Bresson hand over the bones.
So far, no matter what the Bresson Empire chooses, it will be a loss of face. But there is still a big difference between handing over and not handing over, and if it works well, it may be able to resolve some crises. In fact, the Dark Empire is ready to compromise, and their army in Bresson has not moved for three days, and this signal could not be more obvious. The Dark Empire intends to withdraw its troops in exchange for this divine bone that they hold so dear.
Of course, Bresson can also choose not to pay, this is their lair, they have enough ability to repel the dark dragoons, and maybe be able to catch a few and use them to blackmail the Dark Empire.
But no one expected that the Bresson Empire would create an even more stupid option on its own. The prince of the Bresson Empire actually went crazy at this time and began to extract the dark divine power in the bones, and when he acted, he did not notify the Imperial Military Operations Headquarters.
This time it stabbed the hornet's nest, and the dark dragoons didn't even wait for the order of their superiors, and directly launched a decisive attack on the imperial city. What a super defense. What kind of super guards, unless the main god is there himself, no one wants to stop the attack of the dragoons.
Hearing the report that the Dark Dragoons really wanted to attack the Bresson Palace, Jiang Li, the initiator, was so shocked that his mouth grew. He couldn't think of what could have caused the two sides to make such a decision that was not in the interests of either side. Driven by curiosity, Jiang Li gave up recuperation and went to Chongqiu City to find out.
The Imperial City of Bresson, which was originally quite solemn and generous, was already full of black air, and the yin wind was twisting around against the ground, making people can't help but tighten their collars.
The Dark Dragoons, though strong, were not yet able to destroy the wood. The Royal Guards and Royal Guards stationed in Chongqiu City are not vegetarians, and the Royal Guards even have white kite cavalry, although they are not as numerous as the Dark Dragoons, but their individual strength is above the Dark Dragoons. In addition, there are more than 5,000 magonium-tailed flying lions to help in the battle. These flying classes are enough to form a tight defensive line, so that the dark dragoons cannot gallop at will.
What the dark dragoons fear the most is not these flying opponents, but the dark forts on the walls of the imperial city, which are all filled with various defensive weapons accumulated by the Brisson Empire over the years, from magic cannons to demon cannons. And the amount is not small, it can cover almost the entire airspace.
Demiki has been fighting for a hundred days, and she's been waiting. Wait for the moment when night falls. A withered skeleton sat behind her, and if it weren't for the bright soul flame that flashed in the skeleton's eyes to indicate his life force, you would have ignored his presence. This couple is extremely patient people, let alone wait for a day, even if they wait for a month, they will not have the slightest impatience.
The afterglow of the sun was slowly receding into the ground, and there were still some red clouds in the sky, and the clay sculpture of the wooden platform was still visible, and suddenly stretched out his withered hand, took out a violin from his storage space, and drove it to his neck. As the violin appeared, a large number of notes emerged from the skeleton of the injika, and these notes flowed slowly and repeatedly on him.
The skeletal musician with the violin is somewhat dissonant, but the music he plays is nothing compared to it. The grim music like a ghost crying god spread throughout the battlefield, making people's backs chill for a while, and what was even more unacceptable was that this music was mixed with many abrupt notes, some of which were like glass rubbing, some wanted to fingernails cutting through iron plates, and some were like machines crushing bones. There is no beauty at all, and the sound of noise messes up what should be smooth music.
The movements of the Bresson warriors, who were originally concentrating on fighting, suddenly slowed down, and everyone had an urge to cover their ears, and the anger stirred in their bodies quickly turned into irritability, and the movements that should have been completed with three points of strength involuntarily used five points of strength.
The Dark Dragoons weren't very interested in the music, it didn't attach any stats to them, and no buffs appeared. They didn't like the music, but they didn't hate it either, because the soothing music was so good that they would have been happy without the noise.
Unlike the dragoons, the bone dragons, who are the combat partners of the dragoons, are particularly fond of this song, and all the bone dragons involuntarily nod their heads and beat happily to the noise.
Demicki put away her spear and pulled out a strangely shaped bone knife. The blade of this bone knife is very narrow, and the back of the knife is a slender bone, and the blade seems to be a long blade cut into the bone, revealing a long strip on the bone. Demiki raised the bone knife and drew circles back and forth in the air, and a pitch-black passage appeared in the air, and a group of souls escaped from the passage and fled in all directions.
The bone dragons were even more excited, and they kept doing all kinds of difficult maneuvers in the air. Swallow the souls that are scurrying around in your stomach. The bone dragons that swallowed the soul all emitted red light, and one by one the bone dragons that seemed to be set on fire rushed towards the front line of the battle.
A mouthful of dragon flame erupted, and then he followed the dragon flame forward to charge, and all the bone dragons that had eaten souls gave up their medium and long-range attack methods and started hand-to-hand combat instead.
White kites are also good at medium and long-range attacks, and they are natural wind mages. Their magic is a bit more powerful than the Bone Dragon's Dragon Flame, and they are more agile and don't have the upper hand in long-range attacks against the Bone Dragon. The reason why I haven't used melee combat is because of the pesky manticore-tailed flying lions, they are a good melee class. The only spells that can be used are buffs that increase attack and defense. Although the Bone Dragon is a bit higher in rank, melee combat is not necessarily the opponent of the Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion with the buff.
Of course, this is talking about the strength of the bone dragon, not including those cavalry riding on their backs, the strength of the dark dragon cavalry is often lower than that of the bone dragon, their main task is to replace the bone dragon's rotten brain to command the battle, but at critical times, they can still burst out of the machine's powerful attack power. When the cavalry is put into battle, it is the time of decisive battle, it is the time of desperateness.
The bone dragon resolutely rushed forward for melee combat. The Manticore-tailed Flying Lions were naturally welcome, first adding auxiliary magic to themselves, and then rushing towards the bone dragon. The White Kite Cavalry behind the Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion also acted at the same time, and they first used their magic skills to add more buffs to the Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion. Then they command their white kites to carry out a relatively accurate long-range single attack.
Told to charge, the two groups of flying soldiers soon collided, and most of the manticore-tailed flying lions poked out their long tails, either pumping or stabbing. Attack the bone dragon's head.
The bone dragons did not dodge, they still increased their flight speed frantically at close range, and poked their heads out to crash into their opponents. The cavalry on the back of the bone dragon were all short-armed. A large shield in one hand, when the two sides were about to collide together, the cavalry raised their shields without hesitation and faced the tail of the scorpion-tailed flying lion.
Most of the attacks were blocked by the cavalry, and the bone dragon's head was able to make a close contact with the manticore-tailed flying lion. The chance to make contact was precious, and strangely enough, the bone dragons didn't open their mouths to bite their targets, but just slammed into their opponents. With the collision, the red energy wrapped in the bone dragon quickly transferred to the scorpion-tailed flying lion, and the scorpion-tailed flying lion flashing with skill effects quickly dimmed, and the weird red energy actually neutralized all the buff magic on the scorpion-tailed flying lion's body, allowing them to return to their most primitive state.
The moment the bone dragon collided with the scorpion-tailed flying lion, the music of the Ojika suddenly changed, the originally slow and gloomy music suddenly became excited, and the noise mixed with the music also became regular, and all became the roar of the ghost.
The bone dragon with red energy is still looking for the manticore-tailed flying lion with buff magic, and after releasing the energy, the bone dragons launched an attack on the manticore-tailed flying lion that has returned to its true colors to the sound of the music of Yinjika.
A large scorpion-tailed flying lion swooped down on Demiki from the air in a small circle, its front paws glowing with green mist, apparently poisonous.
Demiki raised her head slightly to reveal a trace of disdain, as soon as she raised her hand, the red energy around her condensed into a ball and smashed into the body of the manticore-tailed flying lion, and the buff magic of her body was instantly neutralized, and the scorpion-tailed flying lion, whose speed suddenly decreased, miscalculated its chances of attacking, and pressed down on the two claws before they reached Demiqi.
With a bye, the Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion reacted quickly, and it flipped its tail upward. The shield on Demiki's left hand flicked into the air, and a dark magical element rose from the shield, making the air sticky before the manticore's tail arrived. The tail's attack power was mostly consumed in the air, and when it smashed into the shield, it only made a muffled sound, and Demiki didn't even shake it.
Without repelling Demiqi, it was impossible for the Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion to retreat again, and one of the dragon claws of the bone dragon had already poked out, grabbing the Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion's left shoulder. The huge dragon head pounced on him, slamming it into the neck of the scorpion-tailed flying lion.
The Scorpion-tailed Flying Lion sank desperately, and the long tail pulled back again, in a vain attempt to block the next round of attacks from the bone dragon. However, the opponent it picked was too strong, and one of its desperate attacks was once again defused by Demiki. The bone dragon opened its mouth again after biting the flying lion's neck, and this time the attack was even more deadly, and a dragon flame bullet was directly kissed by it to the flying lion's face. Half of the scorpion-tailed flying lion's head was blown off from the sky, and it fell to the flat ground outside the imperial city, bringing a cloud of blood mist.
The Scorpion-tailed Flying Lions, who had already guessed the function of the music, did not escape the pursuit of the Dark Dragoons. At nightfall, Jiang Li's army of Scorpion-tailed Flying Lions, which had been entangled with the dark dragoons for a day, was more than half slaughtered, and a crack appeared in the consolidated air defense line.
Seeing that the battle situation in the air was unfavorable, the magic defense facilities on the walls of the imperial city joined the battle, and one after another magic cannonballs flew out of the dark castle, repelling the bone dragon that was staring at the white kite and chasing the scorpion-tailed flying lion.
"Bunker, I like it the most." Jiang Li finally couldn't hold back. A series of shadows floated through the air, directly through the thick walls and disappeared into the walls of the Dark Fortress.
The two largest bunkers ceased fire in three minutes, and a large black and red mist shrouded the two bunkers, which seemed to have a spirituality, and looked like two slightly beating marshmallows from the air.
The people shrouded in the fog felt not sweetness, but chaos and death, their consciousness was forcibly injected with a sense of self-destruction, and the few artillerymen of the lower level wiped their necks without Jiang Li using their hands at all.
"It doesn't seem like it's an enchantment." Demicki stopped her attack, staring at the mist that began to coalesce into a large cloud.
"It has life, as if it is giving birth to life." Injika wasn't very keen on combat, but he was well-informed and quick-witted, and he thought of a terrifying possibility when he gave his comments.
"Which one? He's just God's chosen one. "Demiki has already started to sprint to the Holy Rank, and lately she has been consulting with Fursel a lot about the skills that the more advanced beings possess.
"Master Fursel has said that the weapon he uses is a real artifact." Yinjika shook his head slightly, he just sighed at Jiang Li's progress and achievements.
"Maybe we can witness the birth of a miracle." (To be continued......)
