Chapter 260: Jessica's Awesomeness
"Her Royal Highness Princess Celestia...... She'll be on her way soon, the mages preparing the final defensive magic, hopefully plugging the gap in the wall. Anyway, we've got to stick with it here, it's our last chance. ”
The tall officer hesitated slightly, then gave the order in a categorical voice. In front of him was a hastily erected barricade, lined with bronze snake cannons and torsion ballistas, and dense packs of Kislev soldiers, spears and halberds crowded the streets like a small forest.
"Understood, Your Excellency!"
The officer in the helmet of the war bear raised his two-handed greatsword in salute his superior, and then ran forward with a group of heavily armored soldiers, their shining fish scale armor glowing red in the flames, and the war bear crest on their swords and shields flashing as if they were alive.
"Your Royal Highness Celestial Princess, I hope you are safe and sound...... Please forgive me for lying to Kregin...... But no matter what, we will definitely hold here, because Kislevgrad has nowhere to retreat. The warriors of Kislev will never bow to Chaos, and we will live with the royal capital until the last moment!"
Looking at the backs of the advancing soldiers, the tall officer clenched the battle axe in his hand and gently recited it silently in his heart, his teeth clenching his lip, and the bullet-riddled military flag fluttered above his head.
At the moment, he lied because he didn't know where Princess Celestia was and what she was going to do, and it hurt him a lot. But this is also a lie that has to be forced, because he has to say so for the sake of the army's heart!
Fighting raged on the streets of Kislevgrad. Burning between crowded houses. Chaotic legions poured in like a tidal wave through the gap, storming every street and alley, purple banners advancing feverishly under the swords and spears. Tall trolls, ogres stand out in the torrent of swords, their fanatical roars like the roar of war drums.
But the defenders of Kislev did not crumble, fighting with unimaginable tenacity in every street, between walls and buildings, firing arrows and muskets, wielding spears and battle axes. Blood flowed like water. From time to time, the roar of cannons rang out in the old streets. Red war bear flags fluttered above their heads, a symbol of the pride of their ancestors.
But the devastating disadvantage could not be reversed, and the warriors who left the walls could not resist the torrent of chaos, and they fell one by one. The flags also fell one by one. Instead, the roars of the Chaos Warriors in triumph. More than half an hour later. The Chaos Legion had already captured a large block five hundred meters long and two hundred meters wide under the guidance of trolls and war beasts, and the purple military flag stood out in the flames.
"Okay. Let the Coldhorn come up and launch a decisive assault. This is the main street of Kislevgrad, and after breaking through here, there is basically nothing to stop us, so let's dedicate a glorious victory to the Supreme God!"
General Chaos, Kugan Chief Lal Khan waved his signal spear and motioned for his troops to get out of the way. In the attack just now, they were stopped by the barricades of the Kislev army and suffered some losses, but the killer weapon was still there, so he didn't worry about anything.
"There's something strange about our Coldhorns, they seem to want to turn around and go back out of the gap, in fact, I feel like they're in a weird mood, something seems to be wrong......"
A scantily clad Chaos witch with a bronze hooked halberd asked, a close confidant of Desarin who had marched into the city with the giant Coldhorn. Although she didn't know the news of De Saline's assassination on the mixed battlefield, some strange behavior of the war beast made her a little apprehensive.
"It doesn't matter, it's Lord De Salin's order to us to move forward desperately, do you want us to lose in glory to those Norse Redbeards?
"Yes, Lord Lalhan!"
At the general's command, the tall shrine maiden lowered her head and turned to give instructions to the beast, and the cyan and purple serpent of light rose from her six-foot halberd with an eerie sound, swirling in the beast's ears, exuding an indescribable atmosphere. After a few seconds, the giant coldhorn beast frantically stood up on its front legs and pounced like a hundred mad bulls on the flaming barricade in front of it.
"The enemy's monsters are coming, shoot, shoot, shoot! artillery!"
"The snake cannon is being loaded, it will take time, it will take time!"
The earth shook, the roar of madness echoed back and forth over the bullock carts and the planked barricades, mixed with the plucking of bowstrings and the roar of muskets, the chaos of the noisy theater, and the shadow and roar of the beast enveloped everyone's heart.
"Alright, we're going to ......"
Looking at the mountain-like back of the giant beast and the warriors that followed him, the Kugan general Lal Khan smiled a little proudly, the enemy artillery had no time to fire, and victory was coming!
"Your Highness Hyde, let's take a look at Jessica's performance!"
With a sweet and proud voice, a flash of shadow suddenly rose on a two-story building beside the road, grew larger at an incredible speed, and pounced directly on the back of a cold-horned beast, and then there was an earth-shattering flash and a terrible wail!
"Jessica is really impatient, but I won't lose to you!"
Another voice answered Jessica with a smile, it was Hyde's voice, and almost at the same time, he jumped onto the back of the other coldhorn, two flashing daggers slicing a rainbow of blood in the panicked pilot. At some point, the young Divine Servant had already lurked on the flank of the Chaos Legion, unleashing a lightning assault at a critical moment.
"Damn false god believers! Archers ready to shoot!"
Chaos General Lal Khan snorted through his nostrils and waved his hand for the archers to shoot. Although the enemy's surprise attack from the flank was somewhat unexpected, he was not very worried about this, these two powerful coldhorned beasts were blessed by the magic of the great witch Desarin, and they could not be harmed by a few small humans.
"I'm sorry, you can't shoot anymore!"
With an earth-shattering roar, a blood-colored shadow suddenly burst out from the other side of the street and rushed into the midst of the Chaos soldiers who were drawing their bows, like a whirlwind of death. Wherever his greatsword passed, his head and weapons flew wildly, and flesh and blood flew everywhere, cutting down seven or eight Chaos archers in an instant, causing more than ten times the soldiers to panic, as if a short sword had suddenly plunged into a fragile underbelly.
"You little hypocrite, let me ...... Lord Lalhan."
The repeated raids made Lal Khan suddenly furious, how could the army that had broken through several enemy lines in a row be hindered by a few rats! He did not hesitate to turn his horse's head and raise his battle axe to kill the daring sneak attacker, but in an instant, his voice suddenly stopped again, because in that moment of rage, several bullets hit his helmet from the side, tearing him off the Chaos War Horse and throwing him the bloodstained stone pavement.
"Hit! Hit! This is the power of my Highness Baska's invincible spear! Your Royal Highness Noble Princess, you ......"
A dwarf in a severed helmet shouted triumphantly, and he crouched on the balcony of the granite building, his freshly fired large-caliber musket in his hand, his face full of pride, and the one-legged dwarven captain and several dwarven sailors were with him, the smoke of brimstone rising from the muzzle of their glittering guns.
"Please don't scream so loudly, Her Royal Highness the princess is still recovering. ”
Frey calmly interrupted the elated shouts of the dwarf Baska, golden vines and maple leaves swirling around her, and the short-haired girl who had been rescued by Hyde leaned into her arms, not speaking, but her blue eyes shone with a glint of relief.
"Don't be nervous! Your Excellency the general is fine! Continue to attack and flatten the enemy's position! Tear the enemy off the beast of war!"
Seeing the chaotic scene of the Chaos soldiers, the scantily clad blue-haired witch immediately raised her hook halberd and released a purple magical aura in an attempt to calm down the crowded soldiers. She is a calm person, she will not be in a hurry because of sudden situations, no matter what, there are very few enemies who sneak attack, and the forces in her hands have an absolute advantage, as long as they are stable, all problems can be solved.
"Damn it, this guy's armor is harder than I thought it would be!"
Hyde couldn't help but muttered to himself, and he knelt on the back of the Coldhorn, repeatedly raising his sword and stabbing like a boat on top of a wave. In just a few rounds, he had dealt with the five pilots and archers on the Coldhorn, but it was another matter to take down the four-meter-tall troll.
Its back was covered with a double layer of leather and bronze armor, shining with the light of magic, and there was a thick skin as hard as steel underneath, Hyde's magic dagger could not do any damage to it for a while, and now, this huge beast jumped wildly, shaking its body weighing tens of thousands of catties, trying to throw this uninvited guest to the ground, and then smash it.
