Chapter 70: Flying Straight (Part II)

Juda's 10,000-strong army, including thousands of heavily armed knights, the most elite of the coalition, was wiped out by Oufu's troops in a single spotlight. The news was almost devastating to the morale of the coalition forces, and all the coalition forces in the rear immediately stopped advancing, and the battle that had the absolute upper hand on the outside turned into a one-sided massacre, with only a few men and horses left behind being able to escape back to the coalition forces, and the news that they were brought back was even more devastating than the battle itself.

The soldiers were still immersed in panic, they only vaguely knew about the fiasco, and the generals above were silent about the exact course of the battle, and even the soldiers who fled were strictly ordered not to mention it. All the generals of the coalition army immediately gathered for a military meeting, and invited three * divisions and five high priests of the coalition army to attend.

"Just a magic spell wiped out all the Heavy Knights?" said the Masters and Priests looked like they were listening to fairy tales.

"Yes, in the area affected by the magic, everyone including the three captains of the Heavy Knights was spared, and a total of about 6,000 people were lost, and then Oufu's troops took the opportunity to charge over, and the morale of the remaining troops had already collapsed, and only a few dozen people escaped even if they fled. ”

"The three leaders of Juda are battle-hardened, even if they are slightly worse than the Templars, but they are far stronger than the average Templar, and together they may even be able to rival Lord Lancelot. It is impossible for a top-notch warrior like them to be defeated by a single magic, so I would like to ask the three * masters, is this the legendary ......"

The mages and priests looked at each other, and one of the *masters nodded, and said in a dry voice, "It's forbidden spell-level magic." To be able to cover such a large area of 6,000 people, it can only be a forbidden spell-level magic. ”

"But...... There's no way Cedlos will be able to cast the Forbidden Spell. ”

"Even if it works. He won't use it either. After all, he is the leader of the Blessed Land. ”

"But is there anyone else in Oufu who can use such a high-level great magic besides him?"

"Perhaps...... What other means did he use......

A general interrupted the mages and said, "Three masters, can you tell us all the details? What the hell is going on? If we let the soldiers know that the orcs have mastered the forbidden spells, then morale is probably not within our control." And...... If Oufu really has such power, then everything will have to be reconsidered...... Perhaps, we must retreat. ”

Under the destructive power of the forbidden spell that transcends the limit, no matter how elite the soldier is, no matter how strong the warrior is, there is no difference between the ant and the ant. The change in the concept of the place of war with the intervention of this force is essential, and it is one thing for soldiers to die in a terrible battle, and quite another to die meaninglessly one by one like ants under fire.

Several priests immediately shook their heads and said, "Impossible. It is impossible for Orfu to master this magic. Any forbidden spell must be a power that can transcend the power of adaptation magic that can be used to cultivate more than two systems of magic to the top level, and then resonate with each other when using it. Throughout the continent, there are definitely no more than ten magicians who can cultivate both types of magic to the top level, including His Majesty the Pope and the necromancers of the Valley of Deya. And there will definitely be no Cedros among these ten people. Although he is also a top great magician, he is only good at magic arrays, and his spell-casting skills and the middle and high-level magic of all departments and below the ground magic, and he has not cultivated any system of magic to the highest level, so he can't use the forbidden spell no matter what. ”

"And the most critical factor restricting the forbidden spell is that the magic vibration generated by the forbidden spell when it is used is also unbearable for the human body, even if it is a clever caster, it is unimaginable to control the operation of two systems of magic at the same time, even if you don't die. Magical abilities are also greatly reduced, unless it is a legendary monster such as a dragon or a lich that can cast a forbidden spell without damaging itself. Therefore, it is not impossible for a mage to use a forbidden spell, but it is rare for a mage to use a forbidden spell at the expense of his own magical power. Therefore, there is no record of anyone using forbidden spells in the mainland for decades. ”

The generals all nodded, but they were more confused. One of the generals asked, "But how do you explain the situation this time? This kind of magic that the *master was supposed to use in desperate situations, but it appeared in the first contact battle with the orcs." This is really unconscionable...... Or a scroll with forbidden spells?"

A high priest thought for a moment. He said: "It is indeed possible to make a scroll of the curse, and it is said that after using the top-grade magic jade as the core and letting several magicians temper it with a special magic array, the power of the forbidden spell can be sealed." But...... This method seems to have been found only in the scriptures, and two hundred years ago, His Majesty the Pope and the four cardinals made the combined light and fire forbidden spell scroll 'Purgatory Paradise' to deal with Negan's troops. However, the value of that top-grade magic jade is not under the eye of the stars that made the core of the teleportation magic array, it is also rare......

"Ou Fu should have set up a teleportation magic array. This shows that they have star eyes, and that they are indeed very close to the Sandface Mountains...... Are they ......?"

"But even with this material, it's the real challenge to make it. Not to mention that the crafter's own mana should be able to cast this forbidden spell, the level of several supporting mages must also be at the same level. Today's continent, except for the Glorious Castle...... The Tower of Teeth, perhaps...... And that's it...... Diya Valley. ”

"Diya Valley?" all the priests and mages gasped reflexively, and immediately one of the priests asked, "What does that magic look like?"

One general briefly recounted the reports of the soldiers who had fled. Although the soldier who fell at the back of the unit didn't see much of the situation, the descriptions were enough to distinguish the magic.

The three mages nodded with ugly faces at the same time, and said, "It's not the elemental destruction magic, it doesn't seem to be the masterpiece of the mages of the Tower of Teeth......

Everyone fell silent, and the reasoning slowly pushed the possibility of the problem more and more serious. If Oufu is behind the most mysterious and terrifying magician organization on that continent. Then everything has to be reestimated.

None of the generals here are the kind of people who would be intimidated by skeleton zombie necromancy. Generals on the battlefield will only consider what kind of combat effectiveness the enemy has and what kind of fighting style. But because of this, they will all be more scruples. The most terrifying horror is the horror of the unknown.

After half a ring, one of the generals spoke slowly: "We don't care what is behind it." The terrifying power of the forbidden spell was used by Ou Fu at the beginning of the battle. There can only be two possibilities. One is that they can't just use it this once, or maybe they have a more terrifying trump card, so they don't need to put this forbidden spell scroll at the end as an ace. ”

A high priest said in a stiff voice, "No one wants this to be the possibility. What about the second one?"

"The second is that they can only use it once. This was used in the first place with the aim of confusing us. Let's be careful, this is purely a psychological threat tactic. ”

"A forbidden scroll that could have turned the tide was only used to confuse us early on......?

After another awkward silence, one of the generals spoke: "So what should we do?" Now that Erathia's troops had been delayed by Tytaria, the 20,000 cavalry in the rear could be brought up if we waited for the food and grass to be replenished, but even then we only had a total of 50,000 troops, and the morale was extremely low now. As long as Oufu does have a trump card that is more powerful than the forbidden spell, our odds are not great. ”

One of the high priests took out the teleportation scroll, sighed, and said, "Then until the army of Erathiyadi has suppressed the Tetari and returned to the division, let's stand still for the time being." I'll go and report to Your Majesty. ”

"I only hope that Erathia's side can expel the barbarians and return as soon as possible. ”

Erathia, the northeastern town of Wested.

West was not only a gateway to the royal city of Erathia, but also a commercial and manufacturing city in its own right. It is lively and lively all year round. Now the city that used to be very lively is now even more lively. But now it was no longer the noise of the traffic, but the screams of the warriors, the groans of axes on swords and shields, and the howls of savages. There was blood everywhere, dead bodies. With severed limbs and broken arms, everyone jumped, squirmed, and pounded like crazy, slashing the weapon in their hand into the body in front of them by all means, in exchange for as many screams and flesh as possible.

on tall buildings. The archers were desperately firing at the barbarians who were swarming into the streets below, the shield swordsmen stood in line, desperately fending off wave after wave, and the halberdiers and pikemen stabbed behind with their long weapons. Wiselid was originally the hinterland of Erathia, with few effective fortifications, and the speed at which the barbarians marched could only be described as overwhelming. The news of the defeat in front of them arrived almost simultaneously with the barbarian attack, and Erathia's troops, not to mention effectively deploying, were forced to start street fighting before they could even assemble.

Thousands of barbarians screamed and rushed forward with a frenzied shout. The one who rushed to the front didn't care about the rain of arrows shot by the archers, and ignored the slashing of the swordsmen's long swords, and directly slammed his body into the swordsman's shield and body with the inertia of running. As the sword stabbed him, he swung the axe in his hand, which slashed at the swordsman's helmet and armor, and some pulled the spear halberd on his body to pull the soldiers behind him. The armor and bones broke together and the ground clicked and mixed with the screams of the soldiers, which made the other soldiers and swordsmen shudder and stimulate their higher fighting spirit, and these barbarians howled like madness, desperately squeezing forward, rushing, slashing, and slashing, each damage to them turned into a more powerful attack under the fighting spirit of this beast.

Although the priests were chanting prayers and throwing auxiliary spells at the swordsmen to heal their wounds, the swordsmen's line was gradually receding and scattered.

The warriors of the Northern Savage Lands have always relied on this strength and ferocity to fight against the swords and armor of the Elasia swordsmen, but now they have more than that, every barbarian wears rattan armor. The defensive power of these armor woven from unknown vines was no less than that of chain mail woven with iron bars, and it did not appear heavy while covering the whole body, neither the swordsman's long swords nor arrows could inflict complete damage on the barbarians, and the barbarians no longer had the kind of crude and inferior goods or even flint axes in their hands, but now in their hands were the kind of steel battle axes.

'Boom' A fireball shot out from the window of an attic and exploded in the barbarian crowd, two or three barbarians who bore the brunt of the explosion screamed and were shattered, and several of the surrounding barbarians were also shaken to the ground, but these were knocked to the ground and immediately stood up again, and the rattan armor on their bodies was even quite resistant to fire and magic.

This was the last magician in Erathia's troops, and this fireball spell was also his last, and several barbarians roared and climbed up to the attic window. Forcibly dispersed the guards around the magician, and broke the magician into several sections. These brute warriors, who were originally terrified of magic, were no longer afraid of these fireballs and ice bombs, and the overwhelming victory had helped them completely overcome this psychological barrier.

"Bastards, reinforcements, reinforcements, aren't the Kingdom Knights coming? The officer looked at the line that was close to collapse and shouted like madness at the scout who had returned alone.

"The Knights of the Kingdom must protect Her Majesty's safety and not leave the royal city. But it is said that the troops stationed on the edge of Negan from the west had already drawn 10,000 troops and hurried here. ”

"Negan Frontier, when they arrived, the beast had razed the royal city to the ground. "The officers are already hysterical.

Right here, dozens of huge figures appeared in the sky, and several bolts of lightning and fireballs were dropped, disrupting the barbarians' attacks.

"It's the Griffon Knight, our reinforcements are coming. The soldiers began to shout, and the morale that was about to collapse was suddenly shaken. The western border is too far away. Large reinforcements were hard to reach, but these super-mobile highland griffin knights seemed to have arrived just in time.

The forces of Erathia have finally stabilized, but the griffon knights will not be able to turn the tide of battle. The two griffon knights recklessly began to dive towards the barbarians, but were immediately targeted by dozens of axes, and the griffons and knights were chopped to pieces almost in mid-air. So all the griffons stopped flying casually. Only the magic bombardment of a dozen or so battle mages above in the sky was lethal to the barbarians below.

However, this inability to fight back did cause a lot of damage to the barbarians, and the bigger impact was morale. For a moment the barbarians howled angrily and the sound was deafening, and from time to time an axe drew a high arc into the sky in vain and fell again.

The officer, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly froze, his attention had been all on the battlefield just now, and it was only now that he realized that it seemed that a faint thunder was slowly turning from inaudible to clear. But it's noon on a sunny day, and the sun is dazzling.

The officer looked up in the direction where the thunder came, and sure enough, he saw a black cloud slowly approaching here, and the faint thunder came from here. At this time, many people on the battlefield have begun to notice.

The officer's face had turned darker than the clouds at the sight of the black clouds, and he uttered a voice that was worse than the howl of a dying barbarian: "It's a dragon fly." ”

When I got closer, I could see that the black cloud was actually moving very fast, and it wasn't a cloud at all. It's a sight of tens of thousands of dragon flies coming together. The griffin knights, who were also in the sky, bore the brunt of the attack and directly met this sea of worms.

The griffon knights turned and began to flee, but it was clearly impossible for the huge bird carrying a man to outspeed the light insects. More than a dozen battle mages violently bombarded the dragonflies with fireballs, each fireball causing dozens of dragonflies to scorch and fall, and a wall of fire could burn a thousand. But they only had time to cast two or three spells. The black, oppressive cloud completely enveloped them.

Both the griffin and the knight above are elite and powerful fighters, and they can easily shred the dragon fly, a large and slender insect. But the griffons had only two claws and a beak, and the knights could only wield a single sword, and each of them had at least a hundred dragon flies around each griffon, and the small but sharp mouthparts tore off pieces of flesh directly from their bodies.

Even the roar of tens of thousands of dragon flies could not hide the screams of griffons and knights, and in a few breaths, bloody corpses continued to fall from the sky.

As the griffin knights continued to fall, the soldiers and formations of the Erathian army finally began to completely crumble.
