Chapter 457: The Knights' Edge
Of course, after becoming the Well of the Sun, this restriction has been relaxed a lot compared to before. In the previous Blood Elves, mages who had left the Forsaken Lands and moved a little further away from the Sunstone would have their ability to cast spells greatly weakened, and farther away would lose their ability to cast magic.
And now that Yu Fei's soul has occupied the Sun Stone and evolved into the Well of the Sun, the restriction is not so strong. Even if the Blood Elf Mage is thousands of miles away from the Scarlet Mountain, he will not lose the ability to cast spells in Chaos.
After thinking about it carefully, Yu Fei also speculated the reason for this change.
The original Sun Stone has a mysterious power that is sealed in a small stone, and although the mysterious power that escapes from it gives the blood elves the ability to cast magic, there is not much that can really be affected by this bondage.
After the construction of the elf turned into the Well of the Sun, the mysterious power contained in the Sun Stone was no longer as slightly emanating as before due to the change of the place of storage.
The pillar of light that erupted from the Well of the Sun was actually the source of the current power gained by the blood elf mages. If they really find a way to hide or suppress the pillar of light, although the spell-casting ability of the blood elf mages will not disappear, it will definitely be weakened to a certain extent.
Considering this, plus I couldn't shoot myself in the first place. What changes did the pillar of light cause, and Yu Fei gave up this idea. And this also caused him to be the target of the public in the Demon Realm's ontology, the Well of the Sun.
No way, the drastic change in the Blood Elf clan is obvious. Although there are many more training buildings for troops on Scarlet Mountain, only the Well of the Sun is unique and the most conspicuous. Who covets the possible benefits on the Scarlet Mountain would not pay attention to the Well of the Sun?
Greed for the Well of the Sun. So that the four demon kings did not hesitate much. The order to attack was given directly. Of course. Leading the way were the troops of those demon nobles, whose direct troops were to go to the back to reap the fruits of victory.
However, to the surprise of the Demon King and the demons, the demon's front army had just begun to advance and attack, and the Blood Elves were also attacking, rather than defending and counterattacking as they had imagined.
The two thousand Scarlet Knights, except for the shield cavalry and the Shelter Knights as a guarantee to protect the ranged troops in the rear, all the rest turned on the charging skills, and the cavalry spears went forward and directly fired back at the demon army that rushed forward.
From above the battlefield. The form seems to be clear at a glance - although the formation of the demon nobles' troops is scattered and fighting separately, and the will to fight does not seem to be very strong, but the number is dozens of times that of the Scarlet Knights.
The Scarlet Knights, though arranged in a tight array, were incomparably thin in terms of numbers, like an iron nail—or a tack that was going to penetrate the steel shield.
The demon side also looked coldly at these blood-colored knights who rushed towards their side without hesitation, and their hearts were full of mockery and anger. What mocked was naturally the incompetence of the Scarlet Knights; is angry, but he and others are all underestimated.
However, this disdain and anger was when the Demon Front Army and the Scarlet Knights were really engaged. But they all turned into astonishment.
Collapse at the touch of a button. This is the only word that can describe the situation of the forces of the demon nobles in the face of the long-range charge of the Scarlet Knights.
There was arrogance in my heart. Seeing less than two thousand blood-colored knights coming to attack tens of thousands of demons without knowing whether they were alive or dead, even the demon soldiers in the front row did not take the charging blood-colored knights in their eyes.
But these demons who don't put the Scarlet Knight in their eyes are not much stronger than the Scarlet Knight. Most of the demon soldiers are weaker than or equal to the strength of ordinary Scarlet Knights.
As for those lancers and even the Bloodfury Knights, only the elite demons and demon nobles could match. The Scarlet Knights' Blade Array was powered by the Bloodfury Knights and Lancers, how could those ordinary demon soldiers resist it?
What's more, in order to inflict as much damage as possible on the demon troops before the demons put away their hearts of light enemies, the several Blood Fury Knights at the front even activated the Blood Fury Form in addition to charging, increasing their own attack power even more.
One side goes all out, the other side is arrogant and underestimates the enemy, and the scene of the demons being crushed at the touch of a button is not so incomprehensible.
The Scarlet Knight's first hit after the charge has an extremely high attack bonus. This blow was a fatal blow for demon soldiers whose strength was equal to or even inferior to that of the average Scarlet Knight—especially if they didn't value the Scarlet Knight.
Even, in the first round of the charge of the Scarlet Knights, two Demon Counts and one Demon Marquis fell under the Bloodfury Knights' spears. The lancers also made contributions one after another.
There were less than two thousand Scarlet Knights, and the first round of attacks alone caused more than two thousand. The blow after the charge bonus is not only the first demon that is hit, but often penetrates the body of a demon and still hits the demon behind it.
Except for some of the more unlucky Scarlet Knights, who hit the larger demons with the first blow, so that they could not kill more than one with one shot, the rest of the Scarlet Knights had more than one demon corpse hanging on their spears.
But this kind of damage was not enough to terrify the demon nobles. What really made them change color was the death of the two demon counts and a demon marquis. Looking at the few blood-angry knights who rushed to the front, many demon nobles were afraid in their hearts.
Even a very small number of demon dukes had solemn expressions. In their opinion, although the Blood Fury Knight had not reached the legendary level, a single blow after activating the Blood Fury Form to charge from a distance was enough to threaten them.
Luckily, the Scarlet Knights' charge requires distance to recharge, and when they run out of room to turn around in the enemy line, they lose their initial powerful damage. The lancers who have reached the elite level can still rely on the spear stab skill to output, and the ordinary level of the scarlet knight can only shake off the demon corpse on the cavalry spear and turn to a basic attack.
But fortunately, the bloody combat characteristics of the Scarlet Knights are destined for this class not only to strike a blow after the charge, but also to have a strong ability to continue the battle. Blood Battle allows the Scarlet Knight to restore his physical strength by dealing damage to enemies, which is equivalent to the effect of a Vampiric Aura.
What's more, it was not only the Scarlet Knights who rushed into the enemy formation.
Thousands of sword dancers also followed behind the Scarlet Knights to attack the demon army's military formation. Among them, the twenty swordsmanship masters who formed a team almost entered the demon formation at the same time that the Scarlet Knights rushed into the demon formation, they also entered the demon formation.
Well, in fact, the troops of the demon nobles don't have any formations. Every demon nobleman is a small group, and even in the face of the blood elves' counterattacks, there is no intention of uniting in the slightest. There was no way, they didn't have a friendship in the first place, and the mutiny and melee on the way to the previous march made every demon nobleman guard against the other demon nobles.
And this small group combat formation gives the sword masters an excellent convenience for carrying out decapitation tactics. After a slight glance, the twenty sword masters all set their sights on those demon counts first.
The demon nobles who responded to the conscription order of the four demon kings this time were all at the level of earl or above, and there were more than a hundred in total. After a scuffle on the road and the escape of some demons, the number of remaining demon nobles was more than a hundred.
Among them, the Demon Count accounted for more than seventy, which was the largest number. For the rest, there are more than twenty demon marquises, and there are less than ten demon dukes, among which there is also Illidan who is an undercover agent.
It can be said that the Demon Count is equivalent to the grassroots commander of the human army. Of course, in this scattered army, the Demon Marquis and the Duke are only grassroots commanders, but their own strength is much stronger than that of the Demon Count.
According to Yu Fei's tactics at the beginning, the twenty sword masters locked on those demon counts at the first moment they rushed into the enemy formation. (To be continued......)
