Chapter 537: Do You Know What Siege Point Reinforcement Is?
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"The lord of Zirat City, Trivanko, this old fellow is Braehawk's father-in-law, right?
The swordswoman's Saint Villarianne withdrew her gaze from not far away, where a banner was slowly shaking in the early autumn breeze, a large banner depicting the delicate crest of the nobility, which was normally only used when the army was on the march.
But now, it was only a small procession in front of it, more than two hundred knights escorting a convoy of three noble carriages through the main road between the hills, and a dozen flatbed carts carrying seventy or eighty infantrymen, winding behind.
It seems to be just an ordinary aristocratic trip, although it is not often - after the symbol that inexplicably appeared in the sky affected the teleportation laws of the entire Big 6, even the most magically friendly Tuminines nobles had to pick up this centuries-old way of traveling, after all, traveling in a carriage, it is only a few greedy bandits who are not long-sighted, no matter how dangerous, it is better than the consequences of a failed teleportation - crushed into bloody mud in a rock, or lost in an unknown space.
"What a poor fellow, you've been targeted. The question was not answered, so the female swordmaster couldn't help but show her disdain to the person not far away with the whites of her eyes: "But if you move him, Blayhawk will give up?"
"If it's good or not, it's only if he knows that I did it. ”
Edward's gaze swept thousands of feet away to the cavalry that was running down the road, and the men who were the first of Daemon Long's targets were obviously cautious enough to bring out at least two hundred heavily armored knights, followed by more than a hundred hoplite soldiers in the carriage behind them, and near the three chariots in the center column. The armor worn by the knights shone in his eyes, obviously all of them were enchanted equipment, and the magic aura on the carriage was even more dazzling, even the vest had a green and orange halo of reinforcement and enchantment.
"Rich people, I like it. ”
Retracting his gaze from the end of the convoy, the telemancer habitually curled the corners of his mouth...... At this moment, the part known as the skinner, seemed to be stirring in his heart.
With a slight blink of his eyes, the flick of his vision shifted again—the convoy thousands of feet away was already in his eyes. It became a small and tiny light and shadow within ten feet, and each cavalryman lost the color of his body and turned into a red, white, yellow, and green human form.
This vision was a technique that Belle Lena and Rose had taught him, similar to the specific application of divine powers, or rather. It is close to the way the world is seen through the eyes of the gods, but Edward prefers to call it a 'three-dimensional visual figure'. If you exaggerate a little. Within the scope of this 3D map. Almost everything will be perceived by the beings who have this vision, and every change in the strength and weakness of the qiē will be noticed, that is, the omniscience of the legendary gods.
It's just a pity that Edward is not a god, and he has such a vision but does not have the same grand spirit, even if the vision is opened. Nor can he fully pay attention to all the subtle changes, as long as he focuses too much on one goal, the other shaves will be ignored, and many details will be lost.
But for mortal level battles. That's enough.
Just like now, when his eyes swept over, he had noticed that the circle of knights was roughly distributed into a circle according to the strength of the inner strength and the outer weakness, but there were also a few guys in the outer circle, and the luster on their bodies was much brighter than that of their companions around them, and they were almost not lost to the guards inside.
It's just a small role that doesn't need to be noticed.
The attention of the telemancer only stayed on them for a moment, after all, the strongest one of those people, the luster on his body may not be so dazzling, and he can't catch up with the leading mercenaries in his territory - after all, this kind of regular knight can't be like a high-class mercenary, often hovering between life and death, accustomed to fighting in groups, a knight's real strength only needs to be reflected in the charge that relies on horsepower.
So what really caught Edward's attention was only in those three carriages.
There were three people in the first car, all spellcasters, and there were four people in the second car, two of whom were high-level warriors and two mages. And the only inconspicuous guy must be the main one, and as for the third car, there is nothing special, probably for the shipment......
Of course, when this qiē information fell into his mind, he just quietly watched the convoy move forward, because the protagonist of this battle was not him.
"Zirat City is the richest part of the Blayhawk family's territory, known for its granary, in order to supply the food of this expeditionary force, the Duke has collected a batch of food from them, so this time they should have dispatched all the elite knights in the territory to escort them. ”
Seeing that the convoy had advanced some distance, and was about to cross a low hill with several groups of red willow trees, standing behind Edward, the henchman of Daemon Long Blackhawk finally couldn't help but speak: "Your Excellency Edward, are you really going to attack them like this? Isn't the difference of ten times the number of people a little too big? Although Drow are powerful creatures, they ...... in the sun."
His face was a little bloodless gray, and the corners of his sagging eyebrows made his expression look a little stiff like a corpse, but there was some anger on this face at the moment, even if it was only a panicked expression.
How is it possible not to panic?
Originally, his mission was just to deliver a message, but the young mage in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking, actually brought him over to watch the 'interesting things' together. Wolkin is on top, there are only more than 20 drows with him, and there is no possibility of winning this battle no matter how you look at it...... Even if this mage lord is really as strong as his master admires, but with the strength of one person, he can really deal with more than two hundred cavalry?
Yes, what mages are best at is to cause damage on a large scale, but that Count Trivanco is not an ordinary shit noble, these knights around him are all elites trained by the Duke! In addition to relying on horsepower to charge, they also have the ability to fight against mages, if you consider the careful personality of that earl, this battle must be against at least three or more mages, and the same number of high-level knights......
Or, the mage just wants to use those dark elves as cannon fodder. Test the reality of the other party?
Or...... The two sword-wielding women beside him were the ambush soldiers who were really responsible for the attack?
I hope so...... The squire's gaze wandered, and he shrunk his neck - at least it seemed that the two women were at least at the level of a high-ranking knight or swordsman, and if they cooperated properly, they might really be able to get to the core and complete the task......
"Say it in advance, I'm just here to see the fun, don't you want to be the same as last time, trick me into doing a day job!"
As if to completely destroy the last bit of fantasy of the hapless squire, the female swordmaster pulled the hood of the wide robe. He took out another handkerchief, covered half of his face firmly, and raised his voice to call out to Edward.
"Don't worry, it's just a few hundred unlucky eggs. The Psychic Warlock smiled and replied, "Besides, you didn't do much last time." Although I admit that you got out of that ice cube much faster than Claudia. ”
The woman swung her scabbard in exasperation. Fifty or sixty small whirlwinds of air. It's a pity that the other party didn't care at all and raised his hands, and the air around him became sticky, and he deflected the dozens of air blades away from the trajectory, and in the midst of the snort, he made a ravine more than a foot long on the ground.
At this time, that group of convoys. Halfway through the field of vision.
On the side of the cavalry, the helmets on the heads of several lightly armed scouts were strangely shaped, bulging forward like the beaks of birds, and the bright magical aura flickered incessantly. Obviously, the True Knowledge Gem is installed as a lens, and in this kind of vision, there is no hidden aura of magic or the effect of illusion.
Unfortunately, they obviously couldn't find out at the moment, and a group of ambush soldiers were quietly hiding in the range of less than a thousand yards ahead.
Or rather, it was their reliance on magic that made them lose their vigilance in more ways, and no one even thought that a few deep pits could be dug in the side of the road and covered by weeds and dwarf trees to hide two dozen elite soldiers.
Without magical equipment, there is indeed no danger of being revealed. But without the help of magic, such a simple dozens of infantry certainly can't shake such a queue of more than three hundred, and there is no even need to be vigilant, this is the norm in this world for thousands of years.
So, when twenty swarthy orbs were thrown at the knight's feet in the grass to the left and right, they just stared in amazement at the fellows hiding in the black hole, wondering if they were enemies or just country idlers doing some strange thing.
However, the huge tremors that continued like thunder, like a giant mallet, woke them up from their misty dreams at once.
The originally neat team suddenly fluctuated!
Even human beings are dizzy in this terrible roar, not to mention that the courage of horses as herbivores is already delicate, and in the continuous loud noises, all the horses soon entered the situation of rioting, and the internal ones were just neighing and roaring, but the external ones had already raised their hooves and galloped, and at least more than ten of the horsemen who were caught off guard were thrown to the ground, and the men and horses were in a mess!
"There is an ambush!"|
"Ambush ......"
In another world, the reason why black powder began to become an effective weapon, in addition to the problem of lethality, is that the smoke of the explosion can completely obscure the enemy's vision - shrouded in those choking, I don't know if it is poisonous smoke, the knight who lost his war horse shouted there, but he could only hear the terrible sneering sound around him mixed with countless screams, I don't know how many war horses fell to the ground, and there was a heavy burden on the psyche.
And what is even more terrifying is the frightened horses that run and rush in all directions, and it is not a joke to avoid them, and if they are knocked down and stepped on by the horses' hooves—this kind of heavy war horses with horse armor weigh hundreds of pounds, and even if the soldiers wear heavy armor, they still cannot withstand the heavy blows of the horses' hooves.
"Don't panic!" A storm swept up from all sides as the illusion expanded, blowing away the smoke, and then, a slight wave of golden light swept outward, smoothing out all the frightened feelings!
That's it?
Some scrambled to remove weapons from the saddle. Several high-ranking knights swept their eyes, as if they sensed something was wrong, but as soon as they wanted to give a warning, an overwhelming black shadow shrouded the sky!
Bump Bump Bump!
The trembling of metal was so sharp in the chaos that it was terrifying! The dozens of knights on the periphery immediately appeared, and those black shadows were one foot long, black and shiny iron drills!
It's a pity that when they see this thing clearly, they are already destined to be unable to warn...... The terrible steel brazing whistled them off their horses with a terrifying roar, and the delicate breastplate on their bodies was as fragile as sackcloth in front of the metal, and even the broad body of the war horse was pierced directly. The muffled sound of the rain hit the bamboo curtains, the blood splattered, and the knights' ranks fell like straw in a storm!
"Abandon the horse...... Abandon the horse!ah!"
Ten breaths later, a voice finally gave the messy knights their first instructions.
However, when the rain of arrows swept across the entire team from four angles, in just ten breaths, the more than two hundred knights had been reduced by nearly two-thirds! In fact, the reason why these remnants survived was due to attrition - if it weren't for the corpses of the overlapping fallen knights as a barrier, those raining arrows would have been enough to nail them all to hell!
What kind of terrible weapon is this? How many people are attacking themselves? It's magic. Or what?
The terrifying consciousness weaved into fear, numbing the knights' minds, but before the dead had given them a respite, they did not hesitate to jump off their horses and make a second wall out of them. Holding the three carriages slowly, a layer of turquoise protective spells had lit up from the carriage. Went through several layers of obstacles. Those arrows finally reduced the density, and the enchanted armor on the remaining high-level knights also allowed most of them to escape - except for the two Bensaba goddesses who were particularly pampered and directly pierced through their eye sockets!
With the help of magic, the carriage finally rounded the bend, and under the cover of a dozen high-ranking knights, it ran directly towards the way it came! It's a hellish battlefield, and all the caster on the carriage can do is erect a wall of wind and slightly disrupt the angle of those arrows. But the side wall has been hit like a hedgehog by that arrow!
"A bunch of idiots...... Sure enough, the guys who haven't been trained just can't do it, at this time, shoot a little slower, give them the illusion that they can pass through the rain of arrows, and they will naturally rush up stupidly, so they can't put it up, except for wasting arrows, what's the point?"
Thousands of feet away, the initiator of a qiē was obviously very dissatisfied with this result.
Wait a minute –
The last battle was really unforgettable, and now recalling that terrible scene, even the female swordmaster couldn't help but be frightened, a god......
But maybe her brother is right, she's just a little fool, and she never has the brains to learn a lesson, just like now, even though she knows that there might be a problem, she still can't help it, and even noisily follows this damn little ghost headlong into another mess of trouble!
The action of the blade piercing into the ** was hearty, and the ten knights wearing chain mail were caught off guard and were each cut out four or five scratches at once, the drow have always been natural killers, and they have long been accustomed to fighting against enemies with full body armor, and they are very particular about the knife, only to the ligaments of the hands and feet or the arteries in the neck, just one after the face, the blood is surging, and only half of the ten knights are left.
There is no way to compete with this enemy, not at all! The fluctuations of the magic net around this drow mage are ordinary, but he has just stepped into the ranks of high-level mages, but the power displayed between just a few magic spells has completely overwhelmed him, a quasi-** master!
"Drow...... When did the Dark Elves begin to get involved in the affairs of the humans on the surface?, Lord Mage, if you and your men caused this slaughter just for the sake of sacrificing Her Majesty Rose, then leave it at that, even the rest of the sacrifice may not be able to please her more. ”
As he spoke, a magician stepped out of the dimensional gate in the sky, dressed in an ornate robe and holding a staff embedded with ice crystals. Charles was stunned and said, "Teacher Justin, have you been following me?"
Justin didn't answer, his eyes just fixed on the fat man who was slowly standing up.
No gestures, no spells.
There was no warning of a sudden explosion of magic battles.
A wave of black flame slammed into Justin's head, but the flames slammed into a magic shield that suddenly appeared, turning into a cloud of flames. The robe on Justin's body showed a dazzling brilliance, and then a cold air poured out from him, instantly sealing the fat man in a piece of cold ice!
I only felt dizzy for a while, and my chest was so bored that I almost vomited everything in my stomach. He leaned against the wall and sat limply on the floor.
However, this little ghost, it seems that the target from the beginning was not this team, but the mage who came to the aid of the Blackhawk family.
A small crystal in his hand has shattered, turning into a cloud of colored light and soaring into the sky!
"Not good!" the squire, whose face was already full of horror, shouted as he reached out and pulled Edward's robe, "Get your men to retreat, quick, it's too late!"
"That's the magic prop used by the Blackhawk family for emergency summons, and the magic attached to it is of a high level, and it will work even now!They may be here soon, and those mages who belong directly to the duke's side, at least each of them has six or seven rings of spell-casting ability! If it is their joint spell casting, maybe they can ignore the interference of this kind of magic now!" (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!)
