Hadrian's Wall, temporary camp.

"The future Highland Queen has agreed to our kindness, and they will be in trouble in the northern part of the Highlands today, and will launch an offensive at the same time as us. ”

After receiving a reply from the Pandolagon Restoration Army, Yare happily gathered everyone and announced the expected good news in public:

"This means that the reign of the Fannon family has entered the countdown, and the opportunity is just around the corner, and you can get everything if you grasp it!"

On the side, Pompey saw that what he said was a little explicit, and hurriedly added:

"Yes, the Fannons must be punished, and our friend, Lady Lilith of the House of Pandoragon, the rightful heir of the Highlands, will become the new ruler of the Celts. There is no doubt that this is a legitimate and just war, and we will assist her in this sacred mission. ”

The black-haired knight quickly noticed that his words were too naked, nodded his head, and continued:

"The military advisor is right, we are friendly forces that helped restore the Pandolagon dynasty, messengers of justice, and old friends of the Celtic people. And after the deed is done, Queen Lilith will not blame the past, and will reward her loyal subordinates handsomely!"

After speaking, Yalei glanced at the army under his command and gave the final order:

"The prestige of the Empire is here to fight, and we will win!"

As a warlord in the essence of the Celtic region, his order was the will of the Governor's Palace, and without the slightest hesitation, all the generals and officials present bowed in unison and said loudly:

"The Empire will win!

......

The bright summer sun makes the vision open and clear, which is undoubtedly a good external condition that makes a great war even more bloody and tragic.

From the top of the hill in Glagor, it can be seen that the Celts adopted the method of defense that they did best, forming a large circle with hundreds of four-wheeled chariots. Ballistae of various models were placed on the combat vehicle. On the slopes on all sides, small arc-shaped forward defensive positions consisting of several or a dozen chariots were arranged.

Apparently, the Celts wisely abandoned the barracks at the foot of the hill in favor of a more advantageous terrain to build a defensive line against the Governor's Mansion legions, which had strong infantry.

Since it was the defending side this time, the Celtic had a lot of patience. Turtles cowered behind the fortifications and waited for the arrival of the enemy. However, it was not until the afternoon that they finally saw the "exhausted" figure of the Rosevia army.

The complex terrain spread across the river valley and the high kingdom made the governor's palace a difficult march test before the decisive battle, and tens of thousands of troops had to trek through mountains and rivers, and it took a full four hours to cross the Great Wall of Anthony and reach the battlefield prepared for them by the highland kingdom.

However, after the crushing defeat of Glamorgan, the Celts became noticeably smarter, facing the scene of scattered formations and stranded soldiers coming from all over the mountains. They were completely indifferent, just holding on to the chariot formation, cowering behind the defensive circle and observing, with no intention of taking advantage of the situation.

They are well aware of the 'treachery' of the Rosevians, including blood and tears, and even if everything seems to be true, they are not willing to risk the last elite of the kingdom again.

But it was precisely this that kept the Celts from falling for the trick again—thousands of yards away in the clouds, the harpies and the old tiles were waiting for them to charge. Then take the opportunity to explode the chrysanthemum.

However, the march to the Doge's Palace did not go as smoothly as expected. There was no problem with the quality of the garrison army and the new army, but the performance of the highland troops was really unsightly due to morale reasons.

In fact, when the army arrived on the battlefield, it still took more than half an hour with the efforts of all the generals who surrendered in the heights, including Thomas. Only then did they reluctantly re-gather the scattered legions and arrange their troops.

If the Celtics really made a desperate attack during this period, it is really hard to say whether this group of soldiers will be instantly defeated, or even impact their own formation in turn.

It's a pity that there are no ifs in the world. The caution of the Kells gave the Doge's army plenty of time to organize their army, and soon a seemingly elite and formidable auxiliary legion appeared before them in high spirits.

At the same time, the army of the Governor's Palace slowly advanced, and a majestic momentum carrying the might of a great victory rose into the sky, giving the Celts a deep sense of coercion.

"Your Excellency the Governor, may I ask if our troops will take a short rest before making a tentative attack?"

On a high ground not far from the top of the hill occupied by the Celts, Yalei was looking out over the defenses of the highland kingdom in the distance, and at the same time, a huge dark golden bow and crossbow appeared in his hand.

After the instructions, the messenger stood respectfully behind, not daring to be irritated and quietly waiting for his order.

"No, let the guards rest and recover their strength as soon as possible, and the new army will immediately outflank from both flanks and use rapid-fire guns to sweep away the defenses behind those small arc formations on the hillside. The Rock Monster and Vam cooperate with the Shui Lizard to attack directly from the front, aiming to defeat the frontal arc defensive position, and there is no need to attack the top of the mountain after breaking through. ”

After a moment of silence, he spoke suddenly, in a tone that could not be ignored.

Although he felt in his heart that it was not the best choice to attack the new army alone without waiting for the army to recover from his condition, this order came from the mouth of the governor, and he did not dare to disobey it even if he had the courage to do so, so he immediately gave a military salute and answered in a loud voice:

"Yes!"

Then he turned and strode away to deliver the order.

Boom!

Not long after the herald walked down the hill, he heard a rumbling of footsteps, and in the valley, three puffs of smoke and dust suddenly separated from the Rosevian army, which was very disorganized, and rushed straight towards the Celtic position opposite. On the left and right flanks are the new Celtic army with light armor and guns, and in the center, there is an army of monsters composed of rock monsters and Vam.

Although there were only more than 10,000 troops, the movement in such a small area as far as the eye could see was still terrifying, and it could be clearly seen that the Celts hiding behind the fortifications and chariots on the hillside were already terrified, and their hands and feet were trembling.

After all, Vam is a living dragonborn, and in today's world, when dragons are almost extinct, even if they are a few sizes smaller, and they don't have eyes. The deterrent power against the enemy is still not much less than that of a real dragon.

"Long live the Emperor!"

The new armies on both flanks were rapidly approaching the hillside, and a resolute shout suddenly came from the military columns, and then the surging phalanx suddenly divided into countless squads and scattered in all directions.

On such a complex terrain, these well-trained and battle-hardened troops easily completed the dangerous transformation of the offensive squadron. There were no casualties, and one can't help but sigh at the horror of its organization.

The scattered new troops, like a swarm of bloodthirsty sharks, surrounded each other from both sides of the mountain, and when the Celtic figure appeared within range, they immediately fired without hesitation, pouring out the first wave of artillery bombardment.

Bang bang bang!

The cannons whistled out in a straight line like a meteor shower, and then bombarded the front of the formation with unmistakable accuracy, and under the cover of the water lizards, the nearly covering fire of the platoon was overwhelming the Celtics.

A single wave of shelling completely submerged one of the car's formations closest to the foot of the mountain. The terrifying scene of the dense white cannons that filled every space in the field of vision made people shudder.

"The Rosevians are attacking!"

Behind the highland kingdom's chariot formation, a veteran with a gray beard, a wrinkled face but a heavy armor and his eyes shining brightly watched the enemy formation, and on the side of the helmet he held in his arms, a shield was painted with zigzag stripes around it.

"My lord, let's do it!"

Behind him, a Legionnaire Commander warrior generously asked for battle.

"Okay......"

The veteran nodded heavily, and instructed, "Remember, don't go head-to-head with the Scourge Knights. Leave them to the artillery pindown, and you can consume their core army. The enemy's core forces are weak. If you consume it to a certain extent, you will not be able to attack, so you must remember!"

"Yes. ”

Single immediately turned around and waved his hand violently, and the six legion commanders in the rear immediately rushed out of the army formation when they heard the news, and leaped away to meet the monster.

"Enemy of the kingdom!"

He accelerated along the steepness of the hillside, and his figure gradually extended into an afterimage, and his eyes looked into the distance. At the top of the vast green hill ahead, a dark golden point of light slowly shone brightly.

A dull pressure broke through the air, and even from such a distance, Single still felt like a pinprick in his chest—the part of the opponent's hostile lock.

"Another top Legion Commander...... Compared with Kenneth at that time, it was a line behind...... Ignore the monsters and go straight to the new army. Are you trying to drain my army...... Then give it a try. ”

Yalei stared at the rushing enemy, raised the heavy bow and crossbow in his hand, and his gaze extended to the enemy's chest along the crosshair, and suddenly uttered a broken sentence:

"Curse me, O Rilun!" (Paleid)

Click-click-!

In a series of strange sounds in the air, the black-haired knight felt his body sink, and a dark golden sun-ring-like notch faintly appeared on his chest, flashing with a faint golden light.

Curse Me - The ability of the Blade of Destruction Bow and Crossbow can lock on to the enemy and apply the same level of heavy pressure, and the heavy pressure level is infinitely stacked according to the difference between the energy levels of the two sides. At the same time, the bezed enemy will be locked by the crossbow, and within its range, it will never escape the wielder's fire.

"What's going on?"

In the gallop, Single's body froze, and there were large fine cracks under his feet, and when he lowered his head slightly, he found that a strange golden notch appeared on his chest, from which an extremely heavy sense of oppression emanated.

"Can you actually penetrate my defensive props and soul power and directly form a spell effect on the surface of my body?" a look of surprise appeared on his face that he couldn't hide.

From this sun-wheel-like notch, he faintly felt a terrifying force that exuded a bloody smell of steel.

The Origin Knight actually knows spells, what's wrong with this world?

Single held back the sourness in the corners of his eyes, grabbed it with both hands, the black robe on his body collapsed instantly, and the fragments of cloth were intertwined into a black flying carpet, which turned in a circle in the air and flew to his feet.

This man knew very well that he was now under a strange curse, and that continuing his plan to consume the enemy's army was to seek death, and that only by defeating the inflicter would there be a chance of survival.

Whoa!

Between the green rivers and hills, Singhle, who flew close to the ground, was like a small black dot, rushing towards the dark golden light in the distance, and his body loomed, and only a faint shadow could be seen.

"Your Excellency Singhle, we're here to help you!"

The rune warriors in the rear arrived in an instant, driving flying carpets to protect him, and defensive rune props flew out like a school of fish, protecting them inside.

Single sped fast, his ears were full of whirring wind, and all the scenery on both sides of him was blurred, and he couldn't see anything clearly, the only thing he could see clearly was directly ahead.

It didn't take long to run out when I saw a sudden golden light in the distance.

Whew-!!

A strange whistling sound came from afar, and the sound of rapid approaching sound changed from small to loud, and quickly became deafening.

The man faintly felt his ears tingling, and as soon as he saw the white light in the distance, he knew that something was wrong, and his bandaged right hand grabbed forward fiercely.

At this moment, Singer's right arm was elongated to the point of deformity, and the black qi-entangled beast claws swelled to three times the size, with layers of rippling void scratches, and they were pinched in mid-air between the lightning and flint.

Boom - !!!

An extremely powerful impact slammed into him, and the golden shock wave crushed like a tsunami, and the light and flames filled the black air, and the roar almost shattered the eardrums of the people around him.

However, before the smoke and dust had cleared, all the Rune warriors saw an incredible scene:

Singer still stood on the flying carpet with a hideous expression, his right arm stretched to nine feet long and grasping into the void - a golden beam the size of a greatsword, as if frozen by an invisible force, frozen in front of him less than three yards!

"Your Excellency Singhle's Ash Hand is truly powerful!"

The six Legion Commander-level Rune warriors cheered at the same time, watching as the golden beam of light gradually dimmed under the beast's claws, slowly disappearing in the void minute by minute.

"Oh? Blocked...... It's amazing......"

Yalei looked at the seven legion commanders who were galloping over, his eyes suddenly turned to the top of the mountain, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but turn up slightly:

"That's it, keep dealing with my attacks...... The Highland Legion, which has lost the cover of its captain, is just a herd of lambs to the slaughter in front of my Scourge Knights. ”

On the other side, the veteran at the rear of the hilltop car formation was already so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he had obviously repeatedly instructed that the main thing was to consume the enemy's army, how could these seven fools still rush towards the enemy commander, it was simply stupid.

Of course, he didn't know that Single was locked by the Mortal Blade as soon as he attacked, so he could only curse his men for being stupid as pigs, and at the same time roared like thunder and ordered the artillery to counterattack.
