Chapter 42: The Battle II
Bang!
Rumble!
A dull sound came from the barrel of the cannon on the tower, and immediately a crater with a diameter of four feet formed where the Holy See was standing in the distance, and the few black-robed sacrifices that were originally on it had already become a puddle of bloody flesh - the dark barrel moved slowly, looking for the next valuable target, and once it was found, it immediately poured out the anger in the chamber; For every member of the Norsd family, those who invaded the Bay Area and Landingburgh have long been their enemies; It is possible to destroy the other party in any way, without any burden.
After all, it's not about your own glory and pride, it's just about defending your homeland!
Kiger. Northold, one of the four captains of the Harbor Guard, was born in the Northside family; But the favor for the Northsteads came from the heart—his father had once again died of a sudden illness, and in order to treat his father, his mother, who was already destitute, took him to the Northstead manor, where he was received by the kind old steward; Warm rooms, delicious things, excellent living conditions, and even paying off all debts for a borrowed home; He clearly remembered that when those originally vicious debtors heard the three words of North, the kind of horror was like seeing the most terrible existence and longing to kneel and beg for mercy.
"We Nosd do not owe a penny to outsiders, even if it is a clan member who has left the family, we will pay off his debts for him; Of course. Someone else owes him everything. We'll get it back for him! ”
A bag full of Kimpton was thrown in front of several debt collectors, and the palms of several debt collectors were mercilessly chopped off—the palms of those who had beaten him and tried to do evil to his mother were laid out in a row on the ground; Blood was pouring out, but the fellows who usually followed these debt collectors around them were like quails, lying there motionless with their heads down.
The old manager took him by the hand and slowly got into the carriage, and in the carriage, he couldn't help but ask the old manager, "Why are those people so afraid of the Nosd family?" ”
"Because, the one who bears the surname Nosd is the bravest and most united being! And when such a myriad of people with the Northside surname come together. The Northside family was formed! No matter what we face, under the call of the family, we can all twist together like a hemp rope; And even if we are wiped out of the world, as long as one of the Norsd family survives, our family will not be wiped out. It will still rise again; The existence that was once the most opposite to us was terrified and panicked! ”
In the carriage, the words of the old manager and the previous scene were deeply imprinted in Kiger's heart, and something called belonging took root and sprouted in his heart; At the same time, for the Nosd family, Kiger felt glory and pride from the bottom of his heart; Therefore, when he heard the call of the family, he immediately took his men and horses and returned to the family with his beloved artillery. Prepare to face those invaders - his own glory and pride are nothing to Kiger, but for the glory and pride of his family, he will never allow anyone to defile them.
"Little ones, give me cannonballs, and greet those hypocritical fellows!"
Kiger, who was holding the walkie-talkie, looked at the Holy See side that was blocked by his own people outside the manor through the lookout, and shook his fist with a fierce smile, immediately. The barrels of the towers glow brightly - although the Manor House of the Nosrid family in Landinburgh was built at the beginning of the free years, it is still as good as Rantingburg, which has survived several years and countless wars, but the facilities are still intact; Various bunkers, crossfire points, and even the current artillery emplacements can be seen in the Norsd family's manor. …,
Although these exist. In normal times they are some inconspicuous or ubiquitous decorations, but in real battles. The power displayed is terrifying; At the very least, Luthir didn't expect that the seemingly harmless lawns and flower beds in the other party's manor actually hid more than a dozen machine gun fortresses; The tall towers that cover the observation of astronomy and meteorology have become special turrets; Especially at that height, the people he led could not hide at all, and were completely exposed to the guns of the other side; Even if it was because of his extraordinary quality and training, whenever the opponent's artillery sounded, his heart couldn't help but tremble, because there would inevitably be several black-clothed sacrifices who couldn't dodge or react to become a puddle of bloody and rotten flesh.
And in front of him, dressed in sea-blue armor, only thirty Norsds in number, stood in the small fountain square in front of the main house; He could even see the blood on the weapons in the hands of these people - it was because of these presences that his several attempts to destroy the point of fire were repulsed; Moreover, compared to those firepower points supported by gunpowder weapons, he paid more attention to the existence of these sea-blue armors in front of him; After all, in the Holy See, about a third of the files on the Nosd family describe the existence of these beings.
Poseidon Descendant!
Luthir gritted his teeth, and his eyes shot a sinister light comparable to that of a poisonous snake - five black-clothed priests with knives and more than thirty black-clothed priests were killed by these guys; That's more than the gunpowder weapons that caused more casualties; Moreover, the most unacceptable thing for Luthir was that after killing and wounding so many of his people, the other party was unharmed!
That's right, nothing to lose!
Not even a single scar was left on the sea-blue armor - Lutil had clearly seen a priest with a sword stabbing his sword into the chest, and the other party had attacked the priest with a knife in the same position; But the most difficult result was that the other party was unscathed, and the priest with a knife was pierced through the chest by a sword.
Even among the group he is now leading, the strength of this priest with a sword is above average, and Lutil had expected the other party to shine in this campaign to destroy heretics. But it turned out to be. Lost his life in a tentative charge - sturdy armor, razor-sharp weapons, swift speed, and mystical mana; This is the most described word in the dossier, but no description is as profound as seeing is believing!
Although the dead were nothing compared to the number of people he had brought, not even a tenth of them, if he continued to fight like this, even if he eliminated the Norsd family in the last place, the losses he would face would be unacceptable to Lutyr - Lutyr, who was born in the Inquisition, knew very well. The effort and time it takes to cultivate a qualified black-clothed priest, sacrificing thousands of black-clothed sacrifices just for the sake of a Norsd family, this is simply a victory or defeat, and Luthir does not want to bear such a reputation.
Standing in the only shelling dead end, Lutyr under the high walls outside the manor, no longer hesitated. Immediately raise your right arm and wave your palm slightly forward according to the strategy you had previously developed; Suddenly, the three black-clothed priests with swords stood in place and prayed in a low voice.
In the sound of prayer, flashes of light appeared on the black-clothed priests with knives of the same rank around them, and this flash appeared fifteen times before they stopped completely-the three black-clothed priests with knives who had finished praying leaned against the high wall with pale faces, and the sweat on their foreheads was dense layer after layer, and those who saw such a scene believed that if there was no support from the high wall, these three black-clothed priests with knives would sit directly on the ground; Even if it's just a simple record of a divine art. However, the continuous use of divine magic is still a great burden for these black-clothed sacrifices with swords; Now not only are they unable to perform magic again in a day, but even their originally good melee abilities are also non-existent; Even in the face of an ordinary person, it is beyond its strength. …,
If it weren't for the large-scale battle, with the corresponding cooperation, they wouldn't have done this at all - some of the black-clothed priests who were waiting around immediately took out the holy water contained in the test tube, uncorked the bottle and drank it for their captain; When the holy water in the test tube is completely drunk. The faces of these three men were only slightly ruddy; It's not like the previous one that seems to be about to lose its breath, but it's still impossible to continue to fight, at most it's just to be able to stand there without leaning on the wall behind you.
But. Whether it is the three black-clothed priests with knives themselves, or the black-clothed priests around them. Ignoring their own situation, they all set their eyes on the fifteen black-clothed priests with swords who were blessed with the shield of faith—layers of forcefields emerged from the bodies of the blessed, and with the movement of these fifteen black-clothed priests with swords, these layers of force fields that could only be detected by feeling were connected.
Looking at the shield of faith that was still as steady as Tarzan under bullets and artillery fire, Luthir couldn't help but smile proudly - he was able to quickly become the high priest of a diocese from an ordinary black-clothed priest in the Inquisition, not just because of his own piety; Contribution to the Holy See is also an extremely important aspect; In front of him, connecting the ordinary shield of belief and creating an effect comparable to that of the shield of group belief is one of the most important contributions.
Shield of Faith and Shield of Group Faith, although the latter is only two more words than the former, but the effect and power are very different, compared to the former's single, at most can only protect against secondary physical damage of the shield of faith; The latter has not only been greatly improved in terms of quantity, but also more than a notch in terms of protection against physical damage, and will not be harmed at all unless it is faced with a dense artillery attack.
Of course, the difference in effect is destined to be different between the two - the shield of faith can be cast as long as the black-clothed sacrifice reaches the level of a knife, while the cast of the shield of group belief cannot be cast by non-bishop-level existences; And there are bishop-level existences within the Holy See, and there are only about 100 people in the full count, and there are many ascetics who ignore the world; And the black-clothed sacrifice with a knife? If the Pope really mobilized, tens of thousands of people might not be possible, but 3,000 people are definitely there!
And when these three thousand people exert their bishop-level abilities, it will naturally be unbelievable - however, the master in the Inquisition is very clear-headed, although he was pleasantly surprised by the use of the Shield of Faith, but he definitely would not think that just this would make all the black-clothed priests with swords exert the strength of the bishop level; After all, the Shield of Faith is only one form of defense, compared to the Bishop's support and offensive abilities, which are more valued. It's just average.
Of course. This kind of general is only in the eyes of such big people; Fell on Kiger. In the eyes of North, the captain of the artillery command, it was a different matter-
"Damn magic!"
Kiger, who gritted his teeth and cursed, looked through the lookout as the fifteen black-clothed priests with knives stood at the gate of the Norsd family's manor and prayed loudly, and he couldn't help but feel humiliated from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time a sense of urgency filled his mind; He immediately shouted loudly: "Give me all the firepower and hit me hard!" Use all the shells for me and smash that turtle shell! ”
Immediately, the sound of artillery fire resounded in the sky above the Northstead Manor, and Kige, who was lying on the lookout, stared nervously down - Kige, one of the four captains of the Harbor Guard, was no stranger to the magic of the Holy See; Even. At the beginning, under the arrangement of the family, he also experienced this kind of existence that can indeed be called magical. …,
Treat injuries and restore physical strength; Make yourself faster, stronger, and your skin like armor; All of this had dazzled Kiger, who wished he had the same abilities; But as a military existence in a family, there is a hint of aggression in his nature, and he has the magic to be able to attack. He liked and favored it even more - the invisible slash could split another knight in steel armor in two; The transmission of negative energy can make a strong adult man sick, even dying; And the magical summoning can allow a giant dog to fight for the summoner, and its combat power after being blessed is quite powerful, and a team of warriors with standard equipment can only last less than ten minutes at most under the attack of the opponent.
Of course, what impressed him even more was a kind of flame that fell from the sky, striking at the enemy in an entire area; Presence within the range, even rocks will be scorched by the flames. Burn to the edge - but these magical attacks have one biggest weakness: they take time to prepare!
Just like a dark wizard he once slashed, the other party can use toxins and fires, and like those users of magic spells, they are extremely powerful, and even in the face of a large group of pursuits, they can appear calm, and at the same time cause damage to the other party, they can leave safely; But at the moment when the other party recited the incantation, he was understood by a shot - the result of that shot made him understand what it means to face these special beings. What kind of means should you use to understand each other and protect yourself!
As for the difference between a priest who uses magic and a wizard who uses magic?
In Kiger's view, there is no difference between the two at all, both are dangerous!
The only thing he cares about is whether the other party is friendly or hostile - and the current situation. It will undoubtedly be the latter!
Kiger's gaze, which was staring at him below, was overshadowed by the noise of artillery fire, making it difficult for him to see the situation; Merely. Kiger's heart was not unhappy at all because his gaze was blocked, and he even hoped that these artillery fires could be covered more thoroughly, preferably completely - although he didn't know where the limit of the defensive power of the shield of faith was, Kig understood that no matter what defense has a certain limit, beyond this limit, the defense itself will disappear; And under such dense artillery fire, even if there are no ordinary people inside, Kig is sure to make them a pile of dry bones and minced meat.
Dense shells fell in front of the gates of the Nosd family estate, splashing dirt and stones; Thick, gunpowder-produced smoke obstructs everyone's view; However, some of the sensitive beings had noticed the difference - standing in front of the Poseidon team, Linda's palm holding the trident couldn't help but force slightly, clear blood vessels appeared on the back of the hand, and behind her, all the Poseidon were ready again.
Gefa, who was not far away, gently pulled out the holy weapon sword on his waist, and came to his sister in a leap, looking at his sister behind him, the Poseidon descendant, and the father and mother not far away, Gefa's face showed a bright smile: "The Poseidon descendant is our family's biggest hole card, how can it be dispatched so frequently?" Now, leave it to me! After all, I'm half a witcher, and I'm better at dealing with these guys who don't exist on the physical plane, but I'm better than any of you! ”
Without waiting for any response, Gefa burrowed into the smoke that had not yet dissipated in front of him, and at the same time, no one saw that two bottles of potions were poured into his mouth by him—the two bottles of potions were unusually ordinary on the outside, but they had an extremely powerful power on the inside; After all, the power of each of the ancient medicines recorded by Ye Qi was unquestionable.
Boom!
A silver glow emanated from the smoke and lit up the audience, and the smoke disappeared in the silver light, allowing everyone to see everything clearly—a total of ten huge white hounds with their bodies flashing with a unique magical blessing effect, were eyeing the Gofa; Each of these giant hounds is comparable to a calf, and the ferocity that erupts from its body at this moment is no less than that of a black bear and a tiger in the mountains and forests.
"Master Gofa!"
When he saw the ten giant hounds that were familiar to him in his memory, Kieg couldn't help but exclaim; Of course, Kieg was not the only one who exclaimed, all of the Nosd family let out the same exclamation full of concern.
