Chapter Twenty-Seven
In this way, the soldiers of Pompeii's side rested comfortably in the city, and occasionally after everyone raised Yuan Li and released several Yuan Force attacks to suppress the church, they continued to return to a resting state.
According to Chris's analysis, the Church side will not carry out a major attack on the Kakarot area, and the troops thrown here should be to cooperate with the feint attack in the direction of Loznod.
Because, after breaking through Loznod, the next city is the current capital of the empire!! Da Nao City, strategically speaking, Loznod is like the gateway to Da Nao City, which must be pierced!
Therefore, according to the church's method of arranging troops, the empire has also made relative adjustments, and ordered the dove to go to Loznord to solve the three major magician legions, with subjugation as the main and destruction as the supplement, after all, the dove is strong and the powerful spiritual power is there, and she is proficient in illusion, so she is the best choice to go to Loznod.
As for Kakarot's side, in addition to leaving a large number of second-rank monks, the empire also left Yao Bin and Judiwen here. Let the two of them here, naturally, they are ready to open the killing ring and give the church a disadvantage.
After all, compared to the Church's 20 Magician Legions, the strength of the Empire is much shabby, so it is natural to use all its strength to consume the Church's vital strength, and at the same time subdue it, so that under the advantages of one or the other, the strength of the Church and the Empire will eventually be tilted!
After a day's attack, the magicians of the thirteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth mages legions all felt tired and powerless.
During the day, they bombarded the blue light curtain countless times, but except for a few initial tremors, for most of the day, the light curtain only rippled under their attacks, and it didn't seem to be broken at all.
On top of that, they had to face the occasional sneak attacks from the monks in the city, and in the course of that day, one hundred and seventy-six magicians were killed because of the enemy attack!
This shocking number reminded several Legion Commanders of the Wizard Legion that it would not work like this, and if more than a hundred Magicians were lost every day, the Legion could not afford such a huge loss!
However, the other party is protected by the blue light curtain, and it is really unrealistic to want to attack it, but if you don't put pressure on Kakarot City, it is easy for Pompey to divide his forces to rush to the aid of Loznod, which can put the three legion commanders in a dilemma.
"What can I do?" the leader of the Sixteenth Wizard Legion was the first to ask.
"You ask me, who do I ask?" the fifteenth corps commander rolled his eyes at the sixteenth corps commander.
Both of their legions suffered heavy casualties in this attack, and more than one hundred and fifty mages lost their lives, and it would not be long before the mages of the two legions would be depleted, so it was no wonder that the two legions were so anxious.
The two Legion Leaders argued, but the Thirteenth Wizard Legion Leader was silent, his face contemplative, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long time, the commander of the thirteenth mage legion spoke.
"Don't talk about the two of you! You don't want to think about how much energy it takes to withstand the attack of our three legions without breaking the defense!? Pompey's profligacy like this will not last long! Besides, we are not here to break the city, so why do we attack in a big way? Just deter the enemy outside the city and do a good job of defense. ”
The other two legion commanders looked at each other, as if they had woken up from a dream, and they all praised the thirteenth legion. So, in the attack of the second day, there was a peculiar scene in front of the city of Kakarot!
The three major mage legions, which were originally imposing, actually retreated a mile in unison, and they were no longer taking the initiative to attack, but two legions defended, and the other legion practiced, and rotated back and forth, which meant that they were consuming each other with the defenders of Pompeii.
This kind of formation stunned the defenders of Pompeii who defended the city, so the soldiers defending the city hurried to inform Chris.
"Your Excellency!" a messenger scurried to Chris's quarters.
"My lord, it's a big deal!" said the soldier anxiously.
Chris was unmoved when he heard the anxious cries of the soldiers, and after setting up the tea sets on the coffee table one by one, he took a sip.
The mouth exclaimed: "Good tea ~ good tea ~." ”
Then he looked at the soldiers.
"What a system to shout at!"
The soldier saw Chris's movements, listened to what Chris said, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"My lord, go to the city and have a look, for some reason the enemy has put up a strange formation, and will not attack our army at all. ”
Chris laughed heartily at what the soldier had said, and he took another sip of his teacup. The tea flowed into his mouth, and in an instant he felt that his mouth was full of coolness, and even his spirit became a little fuller.
"Let me ask you, are the enemy retreating?" asked Chris as he looked into the soldier's eyes.
The soldier nodded!
"Evacuate a mile after the enemy army!"
"One mile?" Chris asked rhetorically.
"Yes, my lord, the enemy retreated a mile. ”
Chris's fingers were light on the table, and his mind was racing.
"It's only a mile back, no, we have to let them retreat at least another three miles or so. Chris muttered to himself, and the messenger was confused.
"Pass my orders!" Chris suddenly raised his voice!
The messenger hurriedly listened attentively.
"Order, order the imperial royal guards, at any cost, to force the enemy to retreat the formation as a whole for three miles!"
"Command!" the messenger said yes and hurried to the barracks to deliver Chris's order.
After receiving Chris's order, the entire Royal Guard was quickly put into action.
The defenders stationed in Kakarot this time were mainly the Royal Guard, and the leaders of this army were Yao Yizhong and Lu Tianyi. Originally, the Royal Guard Army fought with Du Hongcheng and Gu Yu, but the Imperial Formation of Monk troops was too small, so the Royal Guard could only be temporarily transferred here to participate in the war.
The Royal Guard had a total of 1,600 men, including 600 second-class monks!According to Chris's orders, these 1,600 men had to fight against the enemy's army of 12,000, which was no different from sending them to death in the eyes of ordinary people. But how could Chris give a mortal order to the Royal Guard!
Therefore, at this moment, all the monks of the royal guard stopped resting one by one and sat together collectively, with Yao Yizhong and Lu Tianyi sitting in front of them.
Six hundred second-level monks took the lead in exercising, releasing the Yuan Force of their own bodies, and gradually converging into the sky, and under their traction, the bodies of the other thousand junior monks continued to bubble out with various kinds of energy, and finally these energies were integrated into the Yuan Force in the air and were contained by the Yuan Force.
And this Yuan Force gradually changed its shape in the air, and gradually turned into the appearance of a big hand, which was controlled by Yao Yizhong and Lu Tianyi.
With such a powerful energy, the two of them couldn't support their Yuan Sense for long, and they slapped their giant hands towards the side of the Magician Legion. Relying on the Yuan Power of 1,600 people alone naturally could not make the magicians of the Wizard Legion feel threatened. The strange thing is that this giant hand flew out of the light curtain, and it continued to absorb white light points during the flight, and if you look closely, this light point is actually gushing out of the blue light curtain.
Obviously, this is the light magic left after the attack of the magic army yesterday, and with the blessing of the light magic, the giant hand gradually turned from gray to milky white, and it was even more crystal clear!
In the face of such a change, all the magicians naturally did not dare to slack off, and chanted the spell with all their might, wanting to block this blow. However, their magic never came together.
The power of combined magic far exceeds the aggregation and release of ordinary magic, this is the gap between the three major magician legions and the thirteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth magician legions, the three major magician legions can easily aggregate the spells of the three major legions together, while the thirteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth magician legions can't, which causes the gap between the several major legions to be huge whether it is attack or defense!
So when the giant hand came, the thirteenth mage legion took the lead in responding to the enemy, and their two thousand mages summoned light energy to form a light shield to block the air, but this obviously underestimated the power of the giant hand, and the light shield and the giant hand side crumbled as soon as it came into contact. The leader of the Thirteenth Wizard Legion saw this amazing scene, and he immediately summoned all the magicians to continue to strengthen the defense.
Burst!
Mouthfuls of blood spurted out of the mouths of the magicians and gathered into the air, gradually forming a blood ball, which shot out towards the light shield in the air. A line of blood was formed on the shield of light in the air, and this pattern looked extremely beautiful. Suddenly, the light shield that was still shaking just now instantly healed.
However, this situation only lasted for a moment before it broke again!
Click.... Click.....
Under the terrifying gaze of the thirteenth mage legion leader, the light shield cracked little by little, little by little.
"Get out of !!," he cried out in despair.
Rumble!!!
The light shield has completely collapsed!
The light energy on the giant hand shot down like a sharp sword, piercing through the magicians of the Thirteenth Wizard Legion one by one.
Blood stained the bright robes of the magicians, and the fifteenth and sixteenth magician legions looked at the tragic situation of the thirteenth magician legion, their hearts trembled, and they retreated one after another, and they were overwhelmed for a while.
Even the thirteenth mage legion, the strongest of them, couldn't stop it, so how could they stop it?
In this state of fear, the magicians of the two major mage legions hated themselves for having two legs missing. For a time, the two armies withdrew five miles away, until they could no longer see the city of Kakarot.
The two legions looked at each other, and they both saw deep fear in each other's eyes, the power of the giant hand just now was really terrifying, and it was definitely not something that their own legions could resist!! and the look of joy flashed in the eyes of the two.
But then, they smiled bitterly again, the Pompeii army had such a terrifying means of attack, and most of the three major legions were not easy to win, and the mission on their side was a complete failure.
Just as the two legion commanders were thinking about where their troops would go, they didn't notice the changes around them, and several inconspicuous characters quietly lit up and disappeared under their feet.
