Chapter 40: The Will of the Spell I
In the room, Rogie, Martin, and Grace gathered around a map that covered the table, nervously discussing their plans for the next battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The first thing the three of them agreed was that reinforcements would not arrive anytime soon, and at least for the first few weeks, Boydel City would have to rely on its own strength against the army of the Morning Star Empire.
Next, the three finalized the specific contents of the plan one by one.
Once all the details were settled, the argument focused on the trickiest matter of all ā how to fight the opposing team's Grand Star Invoker.
"I can use the power of Falan's magic circle to amplify blood magic, and find an opportunity to kill Vis with one blow!"
The reason why Luo Ji said this is because she used to be the top powerhouse of the blood clan, although her strength is limited, there are many types of blood magic to choose from, and some top blood magic, as long as the strength is enough, it is indeed possible to kill the Great Star Prayer Master in one hit at a long distance. And ordinary blood mages, even with the blessing of the flange array, lack the means to kill the enemy in an instant.
But this suggestion was immediately opposed by Martin.
"Your Royal Highness, you are currently under the influence of the Blood Suppression Technique, if you can't kill Vis with one blow, the opponent's counterattack will definitely be extremely fierce, in case something happens to you...... If nothing else, the morale of the city will definitely collapse immediately, and the city of Berdell will be lost immediately. Martin was afraid that Rogie would really make a move, so he couldn't speak tactfully in a hurry, and directly pointed out the worst possibility.
Of course, Rogie knew that what the other party said made sense, but still asked rhetorically, "If not, do you have any way to kill Ves?"
Grace proposed, "The Brotherhood can organize a death squad and find an opportunity to trade lives for lives and kill Ves." ā
But his proposal was immediately rejected. "No, Weiss is the Grand Prayer Star Master and the commander of the army, and we can't find a chance to get close to him. ā
Mo Li never spoke, quietly listening to the three of them arguing. After a long time, he suddenly interjected, "Have you ever thought about one thing: if the army of the Morningstar Empire wants to attack Badel City, it needs to cross the copper carving line first. ā
Hearing this, Martin and Grace couldn't help but look at each other, and after a while, Grace finally asked Mo Li, "Do you think the Conjurercery will come to stop them?" ā
"I don't think the Conjurer's Guild will come into existence either. Mo Li shook his head and said.
"That ......"
"But according to the rules set by the sorcerer, when the sorcerer is not present, the sorcerer acts in his place. ā
Martin and Grace's expressions were even stranger, although they didn't say anything, they both meant the same thing: Do you want to say that you can stop the army of the Morning Star Empire on your own?
Instead, Luo Ji showed a thoughtful expression and asked, "Could it be that you have the means left by the Spell Master to kill a Great Prayer Star Master with one blow?"
In the face of everyone's questions, Mo Li couldn't give a definite answer, he smiled and said, "You can just arrange according to the plan discussed, don't take care of me." I do have a few things I'd like to try, but even I don't know what kind of effect it will have. Well, the worst outcome is nothing more than uselessness, and the situation will not be worse than it is now. But if possible, I'll let the Morningstar Empire know that the rules set by the Conjuretor's Guild aren't so easy to break. ā
......
The entire city of Bordle was mobilized, the caravans were expelled, the city gates were closed, a curfew was imposed in the city, and all kinds of city defense materials were constantly sent to the city walls.
As a major commercial city, Birdel City is quite rich in supplies, including military supplies. After receiving the news of the imminent attack of the Morning Star Empire, a large number of ordinary people were mobilized and gathered, each of whom was issued with a full set of armor and weapons, and even a crossbow, as a reserve force to assist in the defense of the city.
Although the army was overwhelmed and there was no hope of support, the morale of the soldiers and civilians in Birdel was surprisingly high, and the reason was obvious - everyone knew that Rogie was in the city.
Although they all knew in their hearts that Luo Ji was affected by the Blood Suppression Technique, and her strength was not one in ten, and it was impossible for her to kill the opponent's Great Prayer Star Master by herself like she did ten years ago, but this did not affect people's confidence.
Since Luo Ji was able to lead the Red Iron Knights ten years ago, come all the way to defeat the victory of the Morning Star Empire when everyone thought it was impossible, then this time, there will definitely be a miracle.
That's what most people think. In the face of great pressure, people will always find a kind of spiritual sustenance.
But either way, it's always good for morale.
In this tense atmosphere, a day and a night passed. The next morning, on the distant horizon, billowing smoke and dust appeared, it was the army of the Prayer Star Sect.
The soldiers rang the bell on the tower, and the bell to inform the enemy of the attack spread to every corner of the city.
Rogie, Martin, and Grace climbed the walls and looked up.
And Moli, who was already burning copper and sodium, jumped straight from the city wall and galloped away to meet the army of the Morning Star Empire.
"Don't worry, I'm just trying from afar, and if it doesn't work, I'll just run. Before leaving, Mo Li said this to the three of them.
Martin and Grace could only smile helplessly when they heard this, and they both felt that he was too childish.
Only Luo Ji said to him: "Remember to burn the crystal when you escape, the range of the Great Prayer Star Master's magic is more than five hundred yards, don't feel safe just because of the distance." ā
...... None of the three of you think I'm going to succeed?
Although Mo Li spoke vaguely in front of the three of them, he knew in his heart that the magic carved stone, the terrifying system created by the spell master, was likely to really be able to work normally!
He is running towards the copper line, and he is going to destroy those who dare to cross the copper line.
......
"Copper engraving line...... Is there a person standing?" she squinted her eyes and looked into the distance, seeing a figure facing her army, standing alone on the bronze line.
"Don't be distracted by these useless little things! Our goal is right in front of us, and before sunset today, I hope that the flag of our army will be planted on the walls of Birdel City!"
It was the Great Star Master who spoke, and Moona had been with him for a few days, and she already knew that the other party was a very difficult person to get along with.
To put it simply, Vis is a typical older generation of cultists, with an almost pathological confidence in the power of the Prayer Star Cult, and in his opinion, this is a battle to be won, and the only suspense is the time to capture Birdel City.
"Ten years ago, Birdel City was attacked by 20,000 men and held out for three weeks until Rogie arrived. Mo Na unceremoniously poured a basin of cold water,
She has always believed that it is fine for soldiers to have faith and morale, but commanders must take into account the worst-case scenario.
As she expected, Ves's expression froze, and he looked at her as if he were looking at a heretic. If it weren't for her special status as the son of the praying stars, maybe Weiss would have blasted over with a magic spell.
"I'll blast down their walls with a few starfall spells, so that those heretics have no city to defend!" Vess said in a low voice.
Mina raised her eyebrows, it seemed that Vis was still enlightened, this method was at least much better than the stupid tactics of setting up a ladder to attack before.
As they spoke, they moved closer to the copper line.
This time, Mola saw it clearly. "That looks like a puppet? Standing on the copper engraving line. ā
"So what? If he is in a hurry to die, our warriors don't mind helping him. Vis said in a muffled voice.
Mola shook her head and didn't answer. She had a strange feeling that wasn't very good.
A puppet...... Standing on the copper engraving line...... In the face of an army of more than 10,000 people, he had no intention of escaping......
At this moment, the exact same voice sounded in everyone's ears, this voice did not distinguish between large and small, and the first and last soldiers in the army of 10,000 people heard exactly the same volume, as if it came from the space around the people and directly entered everyone's ears.
"Ahem, ahem...... Can you hear me? I am the Sorcer, and on behalf of the Conjuretors Guild, I order you to halt your advance, or your army will be devastated......!"
There was some commotion in the army, and the soldiers showed inexplicable expressions, and even Mo Na was stunned.
Is the other side declaring war? But the language is too casual, what the hell is "can you hear me"......
And how does it sound like it's ringing in your ears? What kind of spell is this?
Before she could react, Weiss beside her had already used magic to shout: "Don't be disturbed by this witchcraft, keep in formation, and keep moving!"
"No matter what conspiracy the other party has, it will be wiped out in the face of the supreme power!
Weiss's voice was as majestic as a god, and the hearts of the soldiers froze, and the commotion suddenly calmed down, and the morale became even higher.
"Forward! Forward!" More than 10,000 people roared at the same time, and the iron armor and sword light were huo, and they stepped towards Baidel City step by step.
"Jumping clown!" Vis sneered, as if he had seen the madman puppet being trampled to pieces by his army.
