Chapter 13: The Decisive Battle

Seven days later, Semir finally brought the reinforcements Richard needed, including Aceris, one of the Thirteen Horsemen of Gordon, and Faskie, Ellie's distant cousin.

Aceris was a middle-aged man with a pious face, wearing a washed-out missionary robe, with even the patterns on the sleeves a little torn. He had a thick canon around his waist, and a black cover studded with copper roses, and no one could tell what kind of doctrine of God it was

Fasiqi has a powerful bloodline power and a terrifying fighting talent, he cultivated to the nineteenth level when he was twenty years old, and is now a veteran Sanctuary.

These two people alone can contain a legend like Long Xing, not to mention Semia, Lina, Minotaur and Three-Minute Familiar, plus a hundred Constructed Knights, as well as Reilly and his murderous subordinates, even if Hulan's two legendary powerhouses are intact, they will have to flee when they encounter such a lineup, and they may even not be able to escape.

Richard had gathered such a powerful force, but he also showed a worried look, obviously sensing something. However, Quicksand, who is a god's favor, does not feel anything wrong, which shows that Hulan is a place that the dragon of eternity and time cannot control.

After the reinforcements arrived, Richard repaired for another day, and then left the Hulan Imperial Capital with a large army and began to march towards the Holy City.

The Holy City is a city located at the foot of the nest of the gods, divided into two districts. The buildings in the upper part are mostly made of white rock, while the buildings in the lower part are predominantly gray and black. The upper part of the city was home to the upper echelons of the temple and the samurai of the Holy City, while the lower town was inhabited by people who provided them with various services, including cleaners, servants, cooks, servants, etc.

The Holy City had a population of only 20,000, but it covered an area larger than the Imperial Capital of Hulan. The upper and lower districts are almost the same size, but the upper city has fewer than 3,000 residents, which shows how hierarchical it is.

There was only one temple in the Holy City, and less than ten people were able to enter it. There are three oracles in the temple, and they, together with the two leaders of the warriors of the Holy City, form the supreme authority of the Holy City.

There are several tribes scattered outside the Holy City, tasked with defending the Holy City. However, in the history of the Huran plane, the Holy City has never experienced war, so these tribes have no chance to fulfill this sacred mission. And now, Richard has finally brought the war to the Holy City.

There were a total of 20,000 troops here, and Richard drew a group of surrendered Hulan warriors to replenish the establishment of 15,000 men, and Reilly also summoned a puppet army of 5,000 men. The coalition army meandered forward like a long snake, and this kind of large-scale march could not hide from the natural hunters of the Indian tribes.

So the tribal warriors and the Norland army fought a bloody battle in the foothills of the Godnest.

The last thing a tribal warrior lacks is courage, but wars are not won with courage. This time, Richard copied the tactics of the Hulans, allowing his followers and Darkblade Knights to blend in with the common warriors, using the recruited Hulan soldiers as meat shields while they themselves were exported.

After the First World War, thousands of tribal warriors died heroically. They only eliminated twice as many enemies, and most of them were Huran warriors. Tormented by negative magic, these tribal warriors become extremely vulnerable, while their opponents are strengthened to an alarming degree, and this incredible result is produced. In the history of the Hulans, a thousand-strong tribal warrior was able to easily defeat ten times the number of ordinary armies.

These men were true warriors, fighting to the death in a desperate situation, and they ended up being easily wiped out by Richard, without hindering the invaders.

Next, Richard fought with the Holy City warriors who came out to meet him.

Most of the strength of the Holy City Warriors is around level nine, and their individual strength is weaker than Richard's earliest humanoid knights, but they are numerous, and there are several powerful buff states. In this battle, not only did the Hulan people dispatch all the Holy City warriors, but even the strong ones did not reserve, and the dragon star, whose injuries had not healed, also reappeared on the battlefield, which attracted the attention of Reilly.

In this battle, Richard fought extremely hard. Although she has added two Sacred Domain powerhouses, the power of Quicksand cannot be exerted inexplicably, and on the Divine Nest Mountain, the divine power she consumes can hardly be replenished. On the other hand, every Holy City warrior had a well-equipped suit, and Richard's troops had no advantage in this regard.

Facing the slowly approaching warriors of the Holy City, Richard first ordered his Hulan warriors to meet them, while Reilly dispersed his troops around the battlefield to block the retreat of the Hulan strongmen.

In front of the Holy City Warriors, ordinary Huran warriors had no fighting spirit at all, and the Holy City Warriors would not have mercy on these betrayed believers, and they did not hesitate to slaughter the first thousand troops sent out by Richard, and their own casualties were only a few dozen.

Richard quietly sent a second team of 1,000 men to continue to test the strength of the warriors of the Holy City. This time, the Huran warriors were much more ferocious. For these ordinary people, life is often more important than faith. However, the outcome of the battle did not make much difference, and the Warriors of the Holy City quickly killed the second thousand-man team, and the price they paid was still within double digits.

At this time, the strong men of both sides had already fought in the air, and Hulan's side soon fell into disadvantage.

Sema, Lina, Fasqi, and Asiris are all veteran powerhouses, and the two newcomers to the Sanctuary of Minotaur and Sankumi also have special natural abilities. The Sacred Domain powerhouse on Hulan's side was completely overwhelmed, and if it weren't for the fact that Reilly and Rui Wen were both staring at Long Xing, they would have been unable to support it a long time ago.

Moments later, Richard sent a third wave of warriors, this time with 3,000 men to meet the Holy City warriors in one go, and then another 6,000 men to outflank the Holy City warriors from the left and right flanks, surround them and kill them.

The warriors of the Holy City were never afraid to face a multitude of enemies, and these fierce fanatics formed a dense formation, like a ball of barbed steel, piercing the Huran warriors to blood.

Reilly raised the Dark Sword and chanted the incantation, much to Richard's surprise. Even if he had to use ninth-level magic, with his strength, it shouldn't take so long.

(Could it be that he, like Lina, can cast some kind of legendary magic beyond the rank?)

Just as Richard was thinking this, Reilly had already finished preparing to cast the spell, and he pointed to the ranks of the Holy City warriors and shouted, "Death Ripple!"

A purple ripple spread through the ranks of the Holy City warriors, and everyone who touched it fell to the ground as if they had been drained of all their strength.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the nearly 1,000 Holy City warriors fell.

Richard immediately gave the order to charge, and hundreds of Darkblade Knights rushed out of the ranks and slaughtered the ranks of the Holy City warriors.
