Sacrifice as a priestly form of magic is widespread in almost all religions, and the prayer mantra is strikingly similar: "By the grace of God, with our humble body, as the power of the apologetics, with the fire of our humble life, we will perish with all the enemies of God." ”
The literal meaning is already very clear, this priest is magic, it has two functions, first, forcibly overdraft the vitality of the cast believer, so that an ordinary person has a combat power that was impossible to have before; A second-time bishop has cast more than fifty percent of the Sacrifice Magic Reflection Damage.
The disadvantages are as obvious as the advantages. After sacrificing magic, the caster will not be able to recover to a normal state for at least half a year, and it will definitely shorten its lifespan, if it is injured in the sacrificial state, the body will actively shed more blood to achieve a more effective rebound, and the result is often death; second, the caster must be a devout believer, and the ability he obtains is directly proportional to the faith, and the believer must voluntarily sacrifice; third, only the priest after the first turn can cast this magic, and even the priest after the second transfer, the sacrifice magic that can be cast cannot exceed 10 people at a time。 As a result, the magic of sacrifice often occurs in the final moments of the shipwreck.
His Majesty's Scepter of the Pope crossed a small arc in midair, and a cardinal archbishop led all the middle and high-ranking priests in the diocese to stand up, and in the midst of the chanting, a light infantry of a thousand people rippled with a silvery white light.
Before participating in the battle, the Holy See declared in the name of His Royal Highness that this was the last test for believers under the Holy Shrine of Light, and that the Temple of Light would send angels to all believers who were martyred in the war, and all believers who were martyred in the war would wash away all their sins and be directly connected to the Holy Court of Light by angels, and thus gain eternal life. Such slogans, coupled with hundreds of white-feathered winged angels, make the vast majority of believers fully believe in the claims of eternal life.
Although the line of believers was not neat, their steps were as firm as the grassland spirit opposite.
After a few breaths, the distance between the two sides was only eight hundred meters, and the grassland spirits immediately began to disperse for the first time, and the light blue sè qi marks immediately weaved a large net in the sky, and the screaming arrow feathers fell after a breath, and nearly half of the light infantry was immediately slapped to the ground. Jing Spirits immediately prepared to make up for the second time, that is, at this time, the backlash of sacrifice came to their faces, and more than half of the grassland Jing Spirits trembled violently, and a ball of blood flowers appeared on their bodies!
Everyone on the side of the small mercenary group, including Sha Ruo, didn't realize until this time that the Holy See had actually used sacrificial magic - most of the defensive magic cast by the Holy Court was silver white sè or similar rubai sè, and it was difficult to judge the specific magic from the surface.
"Retreat!" Amy immediately gave an order, even if the Holy Court was willing to exchange three Sect Soldiers for a Prairie Spirit Archer, it would be an absolutely loss-making deal.
"Catapult, giant crossbow ready!" After Su Wen received the order, the horse raised the flag of the remote equipment - for sacrifice, the best attack is the catapult or the giant crossbow, and the dragon's breath, the rebound of human flesh and blood has no effect on the large equipment and the dragon.
Seeing the grassland spirit archers staggering back, the cardinal archbishop immediately ordered the sect soldiers to withdraw as well, leaving only hundreds of corpses in the empty center of the battlefield - the human beings who were still alive just now. In the sky, a few crows saw the bargain, and their chirps fell down to have a full meal, and the archers on the side of the Western Emperor came out with dozens of arrow feathers, and the birds died for food.
Except for the wind blowing through thousands of flags and the sound of hunting, the entire battlefield returned to calm.
"It seems that the regimental commander, your prediction is completely correct, and the enemy really has a plan. Su Wen suddenly turned back to Amy and said.
"Oh? How do you tell?"
Su Wen knew Amy's stinky habit, this must have regarded him as the juniors of the small mercenary group, the senior just smiled slightly, and he was not angry: "In battle, Jing Rui vs. recruits, the longer the stalemate, the more beneficial it will be." This is the third article on the first page of the Snow Moon Legion's Internal Affairs Manual. ”
"Oh. Amy realized that she had made a mistake and touched her nose a little embarrassedly: "Then what do you say?
Amy doesn't want to attack, the reason is very simple, any kind of magic has an attack range, and the magic attack distance of the ordinary forbidden spell level will not exceed 500 meters. If the coalition forces attack first, they will quickly cross the center line and eventually enter the range of the magicians...... Perhaps, the magicians have already prepared a dozen forbidden spells waiting for the coalition forces, in addition to catapults and crossbows.
On the other hand, if the Western Emperor Monarch cluster adopts an attack posture, then the main battlefield will take place on the side of the coalition army, and the situation is completely opposite, with dense stone throwing, strong crossbows taking the lead, plus the archer team, within 500 meters, the enemy will lose at least 20% of its combat strength. If the wizards of the Western Magic Empire want to make a difference, they will have to leave the bricks and follow the army, and the coalition light knights will have a chance to slice through the enemy formation in one fell swoop and finally deal with the mages with the Moon Wash Scimitar - so, most of the time, attacking is not a good thing.
But as Su Wen analyzed, the silence on the battlefield was quickly broken, Reynolds and Dahaino discussed in a whisper, and in the end, they decided to take the initiative to attack - Reynolds and Dahaino really can't afford to wait, at this time, nearly 200,000 troops under the command of the Western Emperor, more than seventy percent are teaching soldiers, and more than half of these seventy percent of the teaching soldiers have just been formed in the past two months, and now they can stand here and be stubborn, completely relying on faith, how long this faith can last on the bloody battlefield, His Majesty the Pope himself is not sure.
Four battle flags were raised behind the platform at the same time, and the Western Emperor Monarch clustered a large avalanche that was ten miles long from the middle to the two wings. In the center, the half-orc heavy infantry of five thousand people was the first to start; on both sides of the heavy infantry, the priests of the four parishes desperately released sacrificial magic on the believers who passed in front of them, and at least one of the five members of the twenty-thousand light infantry brigade fluttered with a silvery light; the light knight troops of five thousand people on the left and right sides also started at the same time, the young knights were still a little nervous and at a loss, and the officers roared in a low voice to restrain their troops. Most of the light knights were herdsmen two months ago, and although they could ride horses, it was the first time in their lives that they had killed or been killed.
Behind the light infantry, heavy infantry, and light knights, the archers of five thousand men also received orders for war, and in addition to the archer troops, there was also a small ballista unit of a thousand men who also received orders, and the chariot-style ballistae that had appeared in the Battle of Fanshui reappeared.
Su Wen frowned slightly, and hurriedly reminded the head of the group.
Temptation, the attack of nearly 50,000 troops in front of him is obviously still a tentative attack - the giants behind the Western Emperor's Great Array and the heavy knight troops on both wings have not moved at all. What's more, none of the magician legions of the Western Emperor who were leaning on Mount Tai moved.
The first of the Elminore's allies to make a move was the ballista on the tree platform, the sergeants rattling their bare shoulders as they wagged their wheels to fasten the metal strings, and their hand-sized bolts were stuffed into the slots. The grassland spirit retreated to the wings like the forest spirit cháo water, ready to strangle the knight who had not blessed the sacrificial magic.
Wow...... Wow...... Wow...... Wow......
The 50,000 people kept the offensive and advanced, and the situation was extremely amazing, and the unique red soil of the Huayu Plain was kicked up by more than 100,000 feet several meters of flying dust......
"Commander, the heavy knights of the Western Emperor have started!" the two Jing Spirit Vulture Knights fell from the sky at the same time.
"Commander, the enemy's giant forces have moved!" In less than a moment, two more vulture knights fell.
"Commander, the light knights of the Western Emperor's main formation have dispersed. After two breaths, the third group of Vulture Knights landed and reported.
Oh...... Could it be that Reynolds wanted to use the 50,000 troops in front of him to consume the morale and arrows of the coalition army, and finally use the heavy knights and other sharp troops to crush the coalition camp in one fell swoop? If this is really the kind of attack strategy, then in history, there is a special term for this "wave attack" , The whole army will be divided into 4~5 echelons, the configuration of the troops is light to heavy, the allocation of troops from the weak brigade to the sharp jing, continuous to the enemy to launch a desperate impact, the first round has not been exhausted, the second round of the army has already pounced, stepping on the flesh and blood of the robe to rush to the enemy, and so on.
"Order Horns to lead the legion back, Daqingshan to meet it, and the Jing Ling archers put the enemy into 400 meters before starting the attack. Amy's mind raced as she gave orders.
The forward movement of the 50,000 men of the Western Emperor was getting faster and faster, and the light knights on both wings had begun to tighten the reins of their horses—an inevitable move before the charge was launched.
"School crossbow!"
Chirp-to-t-t-
The sergeant on the three crossbow carts on the tree platform in the center stepped on the tension spring at the same time, and the three giant crossbows whistled into the blue sky, flying out for a full six hundred meters, viciously shè into the thick smoke, and several faint screams came from afar.
"Lower 5°. The officer on the platform commanded loudly, and there was a sound of rocking, and all the ballistas lowered their elevation angles at the same time.
The vanguard of the Western Emperor strode forward, the smoke in the distance dissipated little by little, and where the three crossbow arrows fell, there were at least four people lying in one place, and the last two people were nailed to the ground.
The light infantry who were at the forefront tore off their rudimentary helmets at the same time, and they turned out to be priests of the bishopric level, and then, under their leadership, a loud song echoed in the wilderness: "Thanksgiving to the God of Light, the supreme being, the root of the scorching stars, the mercy of God, the mercy of God, who has favored God's people for thousands of years......"
A few people, dozens of people, hundreds of people...... In just one breath, almost all the humans in the Western Emperor Cluster sang the same song, and the song was full of love for life, desire for victory, hatred for enemies......
"What is this?" Amy didn't know much about the religious part, and quickly asked Sharuo. The latter was in a trance, and originally, in her capacity, should now be singing together, and the girl replied simply: "The Mass of Divine Grace." ”
In the midst of this song, a ray of light appeared in the infinitely high sky, a true holy light, and the silver light shrouded the believers who were about to die......
Oh my God, could it be that the God of Light, the Supreme Twelve Main Gods, was really watching this war? The Eminole coalition army who wanted to be part of it also believed in the Temple of Light, and a wave of panic inevitably appeared.
On the handsome platform, the chief priest of Zoroastrianism, Adam Ping, chanted in a low voice, a raging flame appeared at his feet, and then, two fire Shura appeared in the sky, one left and one right guarded by His Royal Highness's side, the youngest pope in history stepped on the red flame and came to the Holy Desert Emperor ** team, His Royal Highness the Pope stretched out his hand to open the "Fire Sutra", a golden red flame rose to the sky, His Royal Highness the Pope's clear voice and hundreds of thousands of chorus contended: "Good thoughts, good words, Good deeds, the creed of the life of Zoroastrian believers, no matter what enemies we face, no matter what setbacks we encounter, as long as we firmly believe that His Holocelestial Highness will be with us. ”
Immediately, under the leadership of the Pope, more than 20,000 Zoroastrian believers began to sing the Zoroastrian Bandaji Song, and in the midst of the song, a crimson light fell from the sky, shining in the sky above the Zoroastrian believers.
The mountain dwarf kingdom also believes in the temple of the god of fire, and the current king of the furnace holds the fire god war hammer high, and recites with more than 10,000 mountain dwarves who participated in the battle: "Before the catastrophe of the world, we voluntarily gave up the light and broke into the darkness in search of hope, and the flame of hope burned under the infinite earth......! Before this holy war, your people call on your power!"
Of course, the Huode Star Palace heard this call, and then the three rays of blue, red, and purple light fell from the sky, falling in a triangle with His Highness the Fire Furnace as the center.
Seeing at least two main gods showing miracles, the imams of the forest dwarf kingdom couldn't sit still, the forest dwarves inherited the power of the Ri God Temple! And the qualifications of the Ri God Hall among the twelve gods of the heavenly realm can be second only to the Fire God Temple, dozens of imams knelt on the ground at the same time: "Red and black, day and night chasing, good and evil, since ancient times, the supreme god who rules the red and black suns, your humble servant, I beg you to show your strength......"
As the imams chanted, the handle of the tomahawk in Horns' hand seemed to be corroded, and pieces of metal began to fall, and eventually, the whole axe became spherical—like a black sun slowly passing through the sky. The light is radiating through the black sun......
Including Sha Ruo, almost everyone was stunned! Divine Blessing, it turned out to be Divine Blessing, and it was the three main gods who descended Divine Blessing at the same time! Could it be that the three major divine temples of the Divine Realm now have gods at the level of the Divine Monarch who are paying attention to this war?
Legend has it that a warrior who is blessed by the gods will be invincible!
So, God Blessed Warriors vs. God Blessed Warriors, who will be invincible?!
The vulture knights who kept falling in the sky reported the latest battle reports to Shuai Tai from time to time, and Amy's eyebrows showed a trace of worry, before the battle, everything was considered, but I didn't expect that the Holy Court could actually get the blessing of God - under the divine blessing, the strength and will of the sect soldiers were not improved by a little bit! Although the coalition forces also received the blessing of God, the gap in numbers was reflected at this time. Even if the Holy See soldiers are replaced by a coalition soldier for every two people, the final winner will be the Holy See.
Don't...... Did these gods take the wrong medicine? What are they going to do in broad daylight? Amy secretly slandered the great three main gods in her heart.
From a rigorous historical point of view, the only culprit who was blessed by the three main gods at the same time was the legendary mercenary king Amy. The reason is as simple as it gets: Amy has positioned this final battle as a "holy war" from the beginning, and the vast majority of holy wars in history have only erupted between religions. After Amy's positioning, whether consciously or not, in short, the vast majority of combatants inevitably subconsciously associate this sacred term with the life and death of religion. Since then, this war has been destined to be extremely tragic.
"My lord, the desert knights, please fight!" General Hussein ignored the heavy armor on his body, and knelt on the ground with a bang, and more than 10 desert knights knelt down behind the general, and the golden red light falling from the sky actually fell on the heads of the desert knight officers.
Amy smiled bitterly, Su Wen also smiled bitterly, and all the senior officers who had no religious beliefs were smiling bitterly. No one could have imagined that this final battle involving the entire continent would turn into a religious war, and the special aspect of the religious war was obviously known to everyone.
Perhaps, this attempt to attack will eventually lead to a decisive battle of the 300,000 iron-blooded army.
