Chapter 174: An 'Iron Potato' That Doesn't Boil, Doesn't Burn (1/4)
Fort White Rock.
"Shoot the arrows!"
'Peng~~'
A rain of arrows was the baron's response to the knights of Canretto.
The rain of arrows flew out of the castle nearly 30 meters high, cut through a smooth parabola, and landed in the ice-blooded samurai regiment more than 100 meters away.
For a while, many ice-blooded warriors fell to the ground with arrows.
With the blessing of the evil gods, they can ignore most of the physical pain, but they are not immortal, and they will still die after being shot in the vital part.
Canretto raised his hand and casually flicked away the arrows flying towards him, giving the order.
"300 steps back!"
The Ice-Blooded Samurai immediately retreated.
But unlike the previous order, the team looked a little chaotic because of the blow.
After all, it's not really elite.
When the wind is favorable, it is naturally very strong, and once the sharp spirit is frustrated, it immediately shows its true colors.
After exiting the rain of arrows, Canretto roared again as he looked at the white stone castle in front of him lying like a giant beast.
"Baron Morey, if you don't show up again, you will burn down your White Horse Town! I'll see how long you can hide in the castle! ”
This time there were 7 responses.
Baron Morey's laughter rang out from behind the city walls.
"Who said in the first place that they wouldn't do anything to the residents of Whitehorse Town, and that they were going to break their promise so soon?"
Canretto laughed too.
"I only want your life, but I shrink like a turtle in a turtle's shell. If I kill all your people, people will call me cruel and cowardly! ”
"Kill me, as long as my castle is here and my warriors are there, even if you burn White Horse Town to the ground, I will be safe and sound."
"The castle has enough supplies to live on for five years, and if you do the slaughter of the city, you will definitely be punished by the Golden God! Or do you have faith that you can resist divine punishment? ”
Canretto sneered.
"I fled from the Golden Land immediately after burning down White Horse Town, what kind of divine punishment are I afraid of?"
"When the time comes, it is you who should fear God's punishment, because you, the lord, have not fulfilled your duty to protect your people!"
Baron Morey laughed again.
"Then you go and kill, but I want to warn you, don't think that if the necromancer is gone, you will have no opponent."
"In the temple in the town, there is still a very powerful mage, and your ice-blooded warrior group may not be his opponent!"
"Hey~Larsen~ Just talk big!"
"I've already checked, and the mage can defeat Damsis, but he only took advantage of the sneak attack."
"We have a lot of archers, and he dares to take the lead and immediately shoot him into a hedgehog!"
Seeing that Morey had been unable to shrink back, Canretto waved his hand.
"Turn around, go to the temple, and burn the temple to ashes first."
The people of the North are fierce and savage, and Whitehorse is even more so.
The time for naturalization in the Golden Land is also short, and there is not much reverence for the Golden God.
In fact, this is not the first time that the temple in the town has been burned, and it has been especially serious in the last hundred years.
Because of this, the temple became stronger and stronger.
Canretto ordered, and the Ice-Blood Warriors immediately turned around and rushed to the temple.
After turning around, Canretto yelled at Whitestone Castle again.
"Morey, when I burn down the temple, I will recruit the craftsmen in the town to build trebuchets, and I will see how long your castle can last!"
Baron Morey shouted impatiently.
"Go ahead and do it, don't tell me that I'm not your lord anymore, traitor!"
Having been taken advantage of, Canretto gritted his teeth with hatred, and as soon as he whipped his horsewhip, he rushed towards the temple.
As the team approached the central square, Canretto shouted orders.
"The team is scattered~ all scattered, beware of the mage's fire spell~"
He had investigated the battle scene and had seen a large number of signs of anomalous burning, indicating that the temple contained a rather powerful flame mage.
The good news is that there is only one mage, and the bad news is that the Flame Spell is very restrained by the Ice Blood.
But whether it's good or bad, things have come to this point, and you can't back down.
At the same time, he made a loud promise.
"When the temple is captured, White Horse Town will be ours, everything in the town is ours, and the women in the town are also up to the brothers!"
"Roar~~Roar~~Roar~~"
The ice-blooded warriors were all in their blood, and the image of the elite soldiers that had been maintained for less than a few hours collapsed in an instant, and they regained their true colors as bandits in the mountains.
Temple.
Seeing that the fiery serpent turned towards him, the priest of Senge sighed, clasped his hands in front of him, and began to whisper a prayer.
Xia Lina also sighed: "Rosen, it's exactly the same as you expected." ”
Rosen shrugged his shoulders: "Let's go, Miss Summera, the Ice Blood Scourge is here, and a good opportunity to exalt the Golden God has also come." ”
He turned and walked towards the main hall on the first floor of the temple.
The rest of the people followed.
"Priest Senge, start blessing the warriors with tenacity."
The priest nodded and began to bless the ten most powerful shield warriors in the temple.
There are only ten, because he is only the chief priest of the small place, and he will only be blessed with tenacity, and he can only be blessed 10 times in a day.
Rosen said to Xia Lina again: "The battle formation is better than you and me, you will command." ”
As he spoke, he activated his 300% dexterity flame aura.
I saw a faint blue white light emanating from his body, rapidly spreading in all directions, and every time it spread to a person, this person's body was covered with a faint layer of fiery red light, generating a flame armor with a power of about the lowest rank.
There were seventy or eighty people in the temple, and each warrior had a shield on his body, and this spell directly consumed about 90% of Lawson's mana.
Before that, he couldn't do this, but after taking the Immortal Bird Feather, the mana strength and flame polarity increased significantly, allowing him to have more room for dexterous spellcasting.
And under the effect of the Azure Elixir, the mana in his body also recovered at a crazy speed.
On the other side, Shalina began to give orders loudly.
"Temple guards, shields guarding the front."
"A team of exorcist warriors, shooting crossbows in the back."
"Golden Spider Girl, look for a chance to sneak attack!"
"Filin, you take the second team to the lookout. Anglo, you go too.
"Grab enough scorching arrows, bring shields, and don't let people go to the back door."
Each warrior's weapon, including swords, swords, heavy shields, crossbows, and bows, has been attached with a scorching salute of medium strength.
Flame armor and scorching salute almost perfectly restrain the frost power of the Ice-Blooded Samurai.
At this time, the Ice-Blood Samurai Regiment had already gathered in the central square of Whitehorse Town.
They were scattered and wary, and they could tell that they were all wary of Lawson's spells.
Inside the temple, Xia Lina looked at Lawson: "Can you start?" ”
"Let's get started, I'm all set."
Xia Lina came to the middle of the battle formation and issued the next order according to the plan.
She shouted, "Open the door of the temple and start meeting the enemy!" ”
'Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The thick and tall wooden door of the main hall opened with a bang.
Outside the temple, there are ice-blooded warriors who are eyeing each other. Inside the temple, there are temple guards with shields like walls.
After a few seconds of confrontation, Canretto yelled, "Charge! Kill them all! ”
'Ah~~~'
The ice-blooded warriors let out a shout and rushed towards the temple gate like a tidal wave.
But it is intended to use the tactics of a sea of people to hard pile.
As soon as he saw it, suddenly a head-sized incandescent light point fell in the center of the temple gate, turning into a wall of fire 4 meters high, 4 meters wide, and 4 meters thick, just sealing the temple door tightly.
The timing of the appearance of this wall of fire was very coincidental, it was when the ice-blooded warriors were most crowded, and after they appeared, they rushed out of the temple gate like waves.
Extraordinary Burning Wall, with 50% dexterity and a power level of mid-to-medium power.
The first wave of ice-blooded warriors who charged was just a temptation, and their strength was generally at a low-level level, and their strength was still frosty polar.
Where can weak ice resist strong fire?
The wall of fire burned through, draining their strength in an instant, setting their bodies on fire.
A wave passed, and 30 ice-blooded warriors were burned to death, and the door of the main hall was empty.
The ice-blooded warrior behind him shouted, desperately staying away from the gate, and didn't dare to rush again.
Canretto's eyebrows jumped.
He stood behind him and looked into the main hall, but he only saw a piece of the black hole, and he could vaguely see square shields, but he couldn't see where the flame mage was.
Seeing that Lawson's spell was so violent, the morale of the temple warriors was greatly shaken.
The temple guard slapped his shield with his sword, let out a roar, and took a step forward, blocking the door of the main hall.
It's not going to go on like this.
Canretto carefully inspected the temple and found that the entire temple was made of white stone unique to the north, and the walls were half a meter thick, and various runes could be vaguely seen painted on its surface.
Although there are windows on the side, they are all narrow and small, making it difficult to break through the windows and raid them.
I didn't notice it every day before, but when I really became an opponent, I found that this was an iron potato that couldn't be boiled or burned.
He raised his hand and beckoned to an elite cavalryman: "Take a team of brothers and go around the back door to have a look."
The elite cavalry immediately took the men with them, but soon returned, and there were a few fewer men.
He looked helpless.
"The side door was blocked, it was made of pure steel, it was extremely thick, and the place was too narrow to charge. I pushed it down with all my might, but I didn't move. ”
"The most annoying thing is that there are people on it who keep shooting flaming arrows, making it impossible for people to attack the goal with all their might."
In other words, you can only enter through the main entrance.
Canretto looked at the main entrance of the temple again, and after a moment's thought, he turned over and dismounted, and took the round steel shield.
"Motuo, Parley, Gonzas, dismount, shield, and follow me to charge and break the formation!"
The mage on the other side is too strong, and he can destroy the necromantic army alone, and his mana must be extremely strong.
If you let ordinary soldiers rush in bursts, it is estimated that how many will die when they rush.
So, only the strong can fight the strong!
The four of them high-level warriors, with all their strength, charged and broke the formation, and they didn't believe that the opponent could block it!
"Glade, you take the other warriors to follow on both sides of the gate, and once I break the shield formation, follow immediately!"
"Yes, Captain!"
On the other side, Xia Lina saw Canreto dismount, and her heart tensed to the extreme.
"Guys, get ready, the real challenge is coming!"
Rosen also took a deep breath, and his spirit was condensed to the extreme.
Although he had made full preparations, this was the first time he had faced a powerful samurai, and there was still a little pressure in his heart.
