Being pursued by nearly 2,000 fallen cavalry can be quite troublesome, and although Roland is not a road idiot like Anson and has a very accurate grasp of the route, there are still some mistakes.

Roland's precise control of the route was actually a mistake.

He shouldn't be running in a straight line - those fallen warhorses don't need to rest, they can charge at maximum speed all the way in a straight line, and the distance is a little longer, and ordinary horses can't outrun them.

Instead, he should lead Agraem to constantly change direction and take the zigzag route, because the Fallen Warhorse, like the Fallen, has lost most of its flexibility, and its reaction and steering are slow, and it can rely on constant flexible changes of direction to get rid of them.

But this situation was only discovered after Roland was chased for several miles, and it was too late to adjust...... For the Gatu horses ridden by his own troops were already quite tired from the continuous high-speed sprint that lasted for five miles.

As a result, Roland only lured Agraem six miles away before he had to shoot a resounding arrow to call for reinforcements.

His troops were caught up.

Leon and Risardiran had spotted the arrows that had shot into the sky just in time, but by the time they led their troops to meet them, Roland's troops had already been entangled.

Roland himself is extremely skilled, and he is not easily affected by Aegrem's spells, but nothing happened to him.

But his soldiers were in big trouble.

Along with Illano, these warriors from the Raven Realm had a hard time facing the Fallen cavalry—their attacks were less lethal to the Fallen.

While their archery skills are good, it is difficult to accurately penetrate the brains of the Fallen - even if they do, they will not be able to penetrate the black helmet of the Fallen Ghost.

Not to mention hand-to-hand combat, even the muscular men of the Silver Hand could not defeat the Fallen in hand-to-hand combat, and these mediocre Raven Realm warriors were naturally no opponents.

The only thing to be commended for is their courage.

Nearly every warrior was fighting for their lives, trying to hold back the Fallen so that Roland could escape.

Roland's recruitment of subordinates is mainly based on character, and most of his subordinates do have good character who are willing to sacrifice.

But it was precisely because of this good character that Roland did not flee alone - the sacrifice of his men gave him plenty of time to flee the battlefield, but he turned back twice to rescue his troops......

Sometimes kindness is a sin.

Because kindness will make it difficult for people to make decisions when they are decided, and it is easy to cause greater losses.

By the time Leon arrived with the Noldos, more than half of Roland's men had already suffered casualties.

The Fallen cavalry present at the moment is probably close to a thousand, and there are many Fallen approaching in the distance, which should have been left behind when chasing Roland before.

Roland himself is under siege by some Fallen Ghosts, and he is surrounded by the former Knights of the Dawn led by Renard.

Another group of degenerates in close formation was circling the rear, presumably preparing to complete the encirclement.

Leon didn't see where Agrim was, it was probably mixed in with the Fallen Ghosts—the Fallen Ghosts were packed around the back, and it seemed that the entire team was emitting a black mist.

When a group of Fallen Ghosts act together, it's hard to tell who exactly is Agraim, as they all look the same.

They rode the same horses, wore similar helmets, and were all monsters with no flesh and bare eyes.

People do look the same when they lose their skin.

The only difference is the armor they wear - many of them are the armor they wore before they lost their souls, and some of them are still wearing the Knights of the Dawn armor.

But the problem is that their armor and helmets don't match, and many of the Fallen have two different gloves......

In other words, Agraim must have let these Fallen Ghosts change their equipment, and it is estimated that it is only to minimize the loss of the Fallen Ghosts, and as for whether it is a set, it is not considered at all.

This is a practical demon who can force the kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder to death......

This made the team of Fallen Ghosts look disorganized, but it made it even more difficult to tell which one was Agrim.

Perhaps, every Fallen Ghost can be considered an Agrim, because the black mist has been churning in the queue, and it can completely cover that group of Fallen Ghosts.

That's probably how Agraem fights - he can switch bodies at any time and try to capture it on the battlefield unless he kills the Fallen Ghost to the last one.

Roland's troops were already mixed with the Fallen, and even if the Noldor Ranger was skilled in archery, it was not suitable for long-range attacks, and if they wanted to save him, they had to rush straight into battle.

Leon didn't hesitate, taking advantage of the fact that the battlefield was still a little chaotic, and the number of Fallen cavalry here was not much, and he directly led the team to launch a charge - no way, the Abyss Gate is still on Roland, without this thing, the whole plan would have to go bankrupt.

Moreover, it is necessary to get Roland away before the fallen cavalry of those who have fallen behind approaches, otherwise the gap between the enemy and our forces will become wider and wider.

Perhaps Agraim was indeed quite jealous of the Noldor Elves, and the group of Fallen Ghosts that emitted the black mist did not face it, and the other Fallen also split up after Leon charged and formed a defensive formation.

Leon's heart sank a little - nearly a thousand fallen cavalry, facing more than four hundred Noldor troops, more than double the difference in strength, but Agraem actually took the defensive?

It is clear that Agraim is well aware of the fighting power of the Noldor forces.

But Li Angdu had already ordered to charge, and he could only rush to the end - if he couldn't punch through the enemy's array, he would be forced to stop and fall into a situation of being surrounded and beaten.

The impact of the Noldos is actually not strong, because they are all light and fast horses, and the weight and potential energy are not large.

But the Noldos were light, at least extremely fast and agile.

Nor did Leon intend to command the Noldos in the same way that he commanded the Pande lancers, in fact he did not command at all, and he entrusted the task of leading the troops to Risadillan.

And he himself took a few masters to be the front row stormtroopers.

These masters are actually the four Twilight Knights in the Noldor army.

Wendy brought over more than 400 Noldor warriors, four of whom were Twilight Knights, and two of them were old acquaintances of Leon, Saidren and Neuer.

Sedren is actually a resident of Fort White Hart - he is now in charge of guarding the Noldor Market.

And Noir is the captain of the Noldor mercenaries sent by Israndel to earn extra money, and he is also the patrol leader.

The other two Twilight Knights are also patrol captains, and there are three Noldor patrols from three tribes.

Several Twilight Knights were on Leon's left and right, and the five knights were in the shape of arrows, forming the front end of the cavalry charge.

A group of fallen cavalry lined up and, after slowly turning their horses, turned to meet Leon.

"Pierce them!"

Seeing that the enemy was turning slowly and did not have time to accelerate, Leon ordered a head-on penetration.

In his left hand, he held a long-handled mounted rifle and stabbed a fallen man in the neck, knocking him off his horse.

The rifle broke off at the sound of the shot.

Then, with a backhand sword, Leon slashed horizontally at the fallen warhorse that had lost its owner.

The head of the fallen warhorse flew up at the same time as the two horses staggered, and the bloody body of the horse fell.

The men and horses were down, but there were no neighs or screams, and the degenerate with half a rifle strung around his neck was not dead!

It even staggered to its feet, the half of the rifle around its neck flicking around as it turned, nearly sweeping the two Noldor rangers behind it off their horses.

"Don't get tangled with them! Chop the horse as much as you can! ”

Leon glanced back and shouted to the Noldos behind him.

It is true that it cannot be entangled, because the fallen are not easy to kill, and must be beheaded, and it is not cost-effective to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

The Noldor used swords and shields, and although the Noldor sword was top-quality and lethal, it was a short weapon - when fighting cavalry, it was difficult to cut off the opponent's head.

There is only a momentary chance when the two horses cross each other, but this is too rare, because the Fallen will also raise their shields to protect their heads.

The Fallen are not undead, they have only lost their flexibility, but they still have a sense of battle.

Only those fallen horses are more likely to be attacked - the position of the horse's head is higher, and with the speed of the charge, it is possible to cut off the opponent's horse head with a sword, and the fallen will naturally not be able to catch up.

Leon drew another sword in his left hand, and now, he held two swords in each hand—Dragon's Fang in his left hand, and Griffin's Saber in his right.

It's actually a bad habit to go to battle without a shield, but Leon really doesn't like to use a shield......

Fortunately, the Fallen lack ranged attacks, so they don't have a problem without shields.

These walking dead lose their flexibility and are slow to react, and may indeed not be suitable for crossbows.

As for melee combat...... It didn't really help to bring a shield - Syderen on Leon's left hand side was holding the shield, but his shield only took a sword from the Fallen Ghost and flew out......

His shield was not just held by hand, but was tied to his forearm with a belt, which was usually not so easy to get rid of.

However, the belt that was tied to Sederen's left forearm broke when the Fallen One struck him!

In fact, the Noldor enchanted shield was of good quality and not damaged at all. But Sedren's left hand was visibly numb, and he shook his head in horror after two flexions and extensions on his side.

The difference in strength is too big, the shield can't withstand it, and Saidren's forearm is not broken or dislocated, so he can already be regarded as a Twilight Knight.

Li Ang double-wielded his two swords, rushing to the front and slashing all the way, but there was no problem.

His movements are much faster than those of the Fallen, and the two swords in his hand are extremely sharp national treasure-level weapons.

The Dragon's Fang was indeed a waste in the hands of Gregory IV, and this sword should be used in battle.

It didn't take long for Leon to lead the team through two waves of degenerate queues that intercepted head-on, and there was no obstacle between him and Roland.

"Roland, keep up with the troops!"

As he approached Roland, Leon shouted.

But as soon as he said that, Roland fell off his horse—unfortunately, just then, Roland's horse was hacked to death.

"Throw the Codex to me!"

Leon reacted quickly, knowing that the cavalry troops that were charging at this time could not stop, and Roland lost his horse and couldn't keep up with the large army, so he could only use the Abyss Gate to lure away Agraim!

"Don't run straight!"

Roland shouted loudly and threw out the heretical code with a wave of his hand, but Leon had a sword in both hands, and it was difficult to take it.

He simply stretched out his sword and strung the code on the sword.

"Agrim!"

Leon shouted, sword in his left hand and rushed across the battlefield, and with his right hand he slashed down a fallen beside Renard.

The Fallen Ghost that had been watching the battle from the periphery finally reacted, and this force began to accelerate silently, but instead of rushing towards Leon, it was directed at Roland in the middle of the battlefield!

Agraim is cunning!

"Agraim! Don't you want this thing?! ”

Leon roared loudly, the Dragon's Fang picked up the heretical code and held it high above his head, the cover and part of the parchment pierced through his sword, and the pages of the Abyssal Gate made of ebony clanged against the sword.

"Roaring ......"

A dull roar rang out from among the ghosts of the Fallen, and the sound shook everywhere.

Seeing Leon holding the Codex with his sword, looking like he was going to destroy the Abyss Gate, Agraim seemed to be in a hurry.

This roar may be some kind of command, probably to mark the target, and the Fallen troops began to turn en masse with this roar, and the Fallen who had been besieging Roland also rushed towards Leon.

Moreover, the dull roar seemed to have magical power, and it could cause damage to people from a distance, and Li Ang was dizzy as if he had been hit on the head by a giant hammer at this time, and Venus was rising in front of him.

Roland's subordinates were also more or less affected, and Renard even fell directly under his horse.

This is Agrave's soul spell?

Can it impact people's souls from hundreds of meters, or attack in a large area......

With this kind of skill, the human army can't fight it at all! Fortunately, I didn't fight it head-on!

Leon turned his head to look, and fortunately, the Noldor were not affected in any way.

Agraem didn't let out this kind of roar again, and it was estimated that such a large-scale spell would consume quite a lot.

"Risa Dilan! Shoot left and right! ”

Leon shook his head, his eyebrows still aching, and he didn't look back, but rushed forward with his sword and the heretical code as if he were holding a banner.

It seems that the prophetess Midia is right, Leon has evil thoughts in his heart, his soul is not pure enough, and it is indeed not suitable to get close to Agraim - Roland is almost unaffected, and while the Fallen turn their heads around Leon, Roland solves the enemies around him, and also helps Renard and others back on the horse.

The army of the Fallen began to flank Leon, and the Noldor rangers behind them were finally able to unleash their skills in mounted archery, mainly shooting arrows to the left and right, slowing down the speed of the Fallen cavalry on the flanks and preventing the team from falling into a siege.

Agrim's ability to command troops without a herald was terrifying, and the Fallen cavalry almost always followed the best routes.

If you look down from the air, Leon's team is like an extremely fast centipede, being surrounded by swarms of ants from all directions, and these ants will also think about the amount of advance and will move in front of Leon!

"All to the right! …… Everybody follow me! ”

Knowing that he would be affected by the spell, Leon stopped fighting and handed over his sword to Neuer, allowing the Twilight Knight to wield two swords and take on the task of opening the way.

In the charge just now, Leon saw that the Fallen Warhorse was slow to turn and react, and he led his troops to start all kinds of rapid turns.

Sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, irregular.

But on the whole, it seems that it is actually going in circles, and in the process of constantly changing direction, it is gradually moving towards the expected battlefield.

The twists and turns of the trajectory worked, and the Fallen Horses really couldn't keep up with this flexible change of direction, and the amount of advance that Agraem considered didn't work, and gradually, the Fallen Cavalry all fell behind.

Roland and his men did not waste another opportunity this time, and after getting the opportunity to break through, they rushed out from the opposite direction and avoided the main battlefield.

The wind is getting stronger, the clouds are already covering the sky, and the sky is getting darker.

In the clouds, some flashes of light can already be faintly seen.

A thunderstorm is coming.

But Leon couldn't let the troops keep running at high speed, otherwise the horses would not be able to bear it.

After running for two miles, you have to slow down, wait for the Fallen troops behind to catch up, and then use the acceleration to change direction and shake it off, and then slow down again.

Leon wasn't sure if he would be able to lure Agrim under the giant tree at the given time, or if he would be able to drag Agrim under the giant tree until the time of thunder.

It is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to achieve things, and this sentence is especially evident at this time.

The galloping cavalry carried the grass clippings all the way, and the horses' hooves rumbled, plowing a black mud behind them.

The hillside was already very close, and the sparse droplets of water had begun to fall, and it was almost dark, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, it looked like it was past dusk.

But as Leon led his team up the gentle slope, Agrim's army of Fallen stopped pursuit......

A large group of Fallen ghosts stopped at the bottom of the hillside, as if to observe something, or possibly waiting for the Fallen who had fallen behind.

Leon frowned, he realized that Aegrem might have felt something abnormal—he had been led for more than ten miles, and no matter how much he tried to grab the heretical code, he would always feel abnormal.

After all, it had just been seduced once, and it hadn't blindly pursued Roland all the time.

However, seeing that the time to destroy Agraim was just around the corner, how could he stop it?

Leon lit a fire on the top of the hillside, a large pile of firewood prepared in advance, made from the branches and leaves of the trees that had been sawn down in the morning, and formed a pile of wood twenty meters in diameter under the tallest tree.

And the heretical code was thrown by him on the giant tree.

On the branch of the giant tree stood two Noldor elves, who stuck the Codex in the middle of the trunk at least forty meters above the ground, where the tree had been struck by lightning.

"Agrave, do you want the Abyssal Gate? Come one-on-one! Defeat me and you'll save it!! ”

Li Ang folded his hands and shouted loudly.

A thunderstorm was approaching, and sparse droplets of water were falling from the sky, but these droplets had little effect on the prepared bonfire, and the tongues of fire soon swallowed the trunk at the base of the giant tree, and the two Noldor elves on the tree jumped down from a large horizontal branch on the side.

Leon set the thousand-year-old tree on fire.

He also added a bucket of oil to the fire in front of Agraem.

The flames rose whirringly, the tongues of fire rose more than three meters high, and the gloomy sky was re-illuminated.

The heretical code, which was put on a high ground that was hard to reach.

Of course, this was not improvised, everything was just going according to plan.

Abyssal Gate pages made of ebony are of course difficult to break, but being difficult doesn't mean they can't be burned out at all - as long as the fire lasts long enough, as long as the flame core is high enough, the ebony will melt.

And the giant tree itself means a lot of high-quality fuel - a giant tree with a diameter of seven meters at the bottom, if left to burn, it will not burn for three days and three nights.

But now the situation is a little later than Leon expected - lightning flashes can already be seen in the clouds, and if you don't lure Agrame under the tree within a few minutes, you will miss the lightning strike!

"Roaring ......"

The loud roar came again, and Leon's mind sank again.

Then, Agraim finally spoke: "Stop! That's the gate of heaven! You can't ruin it! ”

The voice sounded rather charming, hoarse, low, but magnetic.

But......

Gates of Heaven?

Isn't it the Gate of the Abyss?
