Chapter 152: Statue

PS: Thanks to cxbl, Rebellion Soul §Z, ocean√, adventurer*Tianyun, BlueShadow, and Big Gray Strong commuter passes.

June is coming.,It seems that you should try to see if you can do 6000 words of full attendance.,Today I started two shifts a day.,This is today's first shift.

Blood splattered, blades snapped, corpses lay to the ground, and the living continued to fight to the death.

It was a battle of only a few hundred people, but it was no less tragic than those tens of thousands of people, or even worse.

The battle is fought between the forces of the newly formed Sylvia regime, a vibrant, energetic, and hostile army under the leadership of Princess Sylvia who is on a mission to drive out the invaders and reclaim the lost territory of Haythtin, and on the other side is an expeditionary force from the Wayne Islands in the southern seas, who are fanatical and bloodthirsty and vow to sow their faith in the god Slarkna in every part of this world.

The positions of the two sides are diametrically opposed, the battle is predestined from the beginning, and this battle is not the beginning nor the end, but only a small part of the inconspicuous.

The current situation is that the Hastings are at a disadvantage.

This is not a gap in martial arts, in fact, the Waynes who remain are weaker than their companions who have left, but when facing an enemy who is not afraid of death, even the strongest army will have a headache, not to mention the Elebrock army that still lacks the baptism of war.

This Wayne unit was left behind by Manstedin. It was now three days after the fire, and when Gehr led his army in pursuit again after the fire had been extinguished, he was able to catch up with the broken rear force. And Manstandin's main forces had already crossed the Rio Pass and entered the Khanwino Plain in the Merzai region. It's no longer possible to catch up.

When the Haystings caught up with the fleeing Waynese, the followers of the god Slark were on their knees. Offer a sincere prayer to their gods.

For the Haystingers, it was a big surprise. Unexpectedly, the rats who had finally caught up with these despicable methods to escape suddenly stopped their pace of running for their lives, and instead stayed where they were and prayed uselessly, but even more unexpectedly, after seeing the arrival of the pursuers, these Waynes did not choose to continue to flee, but screamed and fought back with an irrational attitude.

A bloody melee was formed immediately.

In front of the Wayne, who had become frantic with a desperate fighting spirit, the Haystings were suppressed. For a while, he was beaten and retreated.

However, fortunately, although the madness of the Hays Thunder people is not as good as these fanatics, their blood and courage will never be inferior, coupled with the advantage of combat power and troops, after facing such a strong counterattack by the Waynees, they did not collapse, and they slowly recovered from the initial surprise and stabilized their positions.

The "Lord ......" stood in a corner of the battlefield, and Arleva's mount kept shaking its head and neighing, as if the anxious mood of the hunter on its back was transmitted to it.

In the face of Arlevana, the desire to fight is clearly written on his face. Gehr paid no heed, and the hundreds of cavalry behind him stood silently, waiting for their leader's orders.

"Arleva, shut up. "Duff pulled the hunter. "The lord has his considerations. And these cultists won't last long. ”

"Tell me about it. Faced with the assertions of the former tavernkeeper, Gehr continued to observe the situation on the battlefield without looking back. Just threw down a sentence of interest.

"Good, sir. Duff bowed to Gehr. "I think these cultists are just temporarily mad because of the fierce medicine brewed with fanaticism. As long as the effect of the drug has passed. Don't talk about fighting, maybe they can't even stand on their feet. Our army only needs to support it for a while. ”

"Well said. Gehr complimented.

"It's almost there. ”

Not long after Gehr's words fell, the frenzy of the Waynes who were frantically attacking began to cool down. Before the tide of the war could change, these fanatical believers were exhausted and began to stagnate.

"Sortie. ”

Gehr lifted Epheros high and then pointed at the horsemen, who had been static, instantly boiled, like a pot of boiling water, drowning the Waynese with a scorching heat.

As soon as the cavalry charge began, the roar of a giant beast suddenly suppressed all other sounds on the battlefield.

This is the power of the king of war in this era.

"Kill!"

"Haysting will win!"

The cavalry's charge was like a wild hurricane, entering the battlefield from the flank, straight into the already scattered formation of the Waynese, and the powerful charging force directly broke any organized resistance.

With a roar, the first row of cavalry crashed into the weak defense line temporarily organized by the Waywnes, and the first row of Waynes who formed the defense line suddenly fell to the ground in unison, and the Waynese people behind also retreated, huddled together with their companions further behind, and the defense of the Waynesians was on the verge of collapse with just one impact.

The warriors who could become qualified cavalry had good martial arts, and they unswiped the weapons of the Waynes and slashed between the Weins, disrupting their organization and trying to get out of the way - for the second platoon of cavalry had arrived.

There was a loud bang.

Irreparable chaos befell the Wayne. In this more violent collision, the Slark army of several hundred men was directly knocked out of a passage that penetrated the front and back, and after the formation was pierced, the rout had begun to spread rapidly among the Wayne.

The cavalry's just right impact this time directly determined the trend of the battle.

The Hayes Thunder Man wins.

The Waynese broke down and began to flee north, in the direction where Merzai was, and some of the Waynese ran out of strength and simply fell to their knees and made a gesture of surrender.

While some of his men continued to pursue the router, others began to tidy up the battlefield - packing up the spoils, healing their wounded, sorting out the corpses of their comrades, and, of course, mending the lifeless Waynes so that they could see their gods sooner. As for the Waynes, who are still in good condition. They will be taken back to Eeribulk, once there. They would have their thumbs cut off on the soles of their feet and spend their lives in the fields outside of Elibrock to atone for their crimes.

The last of these requests was specifically made by the Ministry of Agriculture in Eribulk. Because of the great decline in the population, there is an urgent need for labor to supplement the personnel engaged in agricultural production. Captives were a good addition, and although they were certainly not efficient in terms of labor, their low cost made them useful in this period.

Naturally, these men would do it, and Gehr dismounted himself and walked to a small dirt bag where there were several of the most well-armed Wayne's corpses - this was supposed to be the commander of these Waynese and his guards. After the defeat in the battle, these people tried to hold on to this small dirt bag less than ten meters high, and then Arleva mobilized a team of hunters to cover the dirt bag with bows and arrows......

Gehr stepped on the blood-soaked and somewhat loose dirt and walked step by step onto the dirt bag.

Looking at the armor that is still complete under the baptism of arrow rain. Gehr nodded slightly. Now Elybrock's armament is very tight, and this armor can be changed to make a good knight's armor - you must know that in order to meet the armament needs of the cavalry, not only the original arsenal has been turned upside down, but even the civilian collection has been completely scraped.

But there were still a lot of cavalrymen in leather armor - which was pretty good compared to the fact that many of the infantry didn't even have decent armor.

But Gehr had not yet fallen to the point of seeing such a thing, and he had only come up because of a strange feeling, as if something was attracting him.

Coming to the commander's side, Epheros in his hand delicately lifted the clasp on his armor and kicked open the breastplate. Underneath is the blood-soaked underwear that has turned black and red.

Tearing through the glued laundry, an object about the size of a palm rolled out.

This is a bronze statue of a three-headed snake, both fangs and scales are made vividly, which can be called a masterpiece.

The image of this statue is recognized. It is the incarnation of the god Slark.

In the texts of the Church of Slarkna, the god Slarkna chose one of three animal avatars as a carrier when he descended to the mortal world, and this three-headed serpent was one of them.

During the short period of time that the Church of Slarkna ruled Eeribrock. The most they did was to forcibly indoctrinate the inhabitants of Eeribrok, and this coercive behavior naturally did not work very well. But it also succeeded in giving the Haysting people of Eeribrock a certain understanding of the main things of the Church of Slarkna, and waited until Eric recovered Eric. It's a lot of confiscation of a batch of Slarkna's canons and stuff.

For these cultists' books, Eric did not burn them all at once, like Archbishop Bovey, but put them in the database so that they could be consulted at any time, but they were forbidden to circulate among the people. In his words, if you want to defeat the enemy, you must have a deep understanding of the enemy, of course, the people are blindly obedient, and some knowledge is not suitable for the people.

Thanks to Eric's approach, Gehr and the rest of the Sylvia hierarchy had enough information to learn more about the Church of Slarkna and to study ways to deal with it.

He didn't care about the idol Gehr, as a believer in Slarkna, it was not incomprehensible to bring a statue to pray at any time, and there were many similar statues found on the corpses of the Wayne.

Of note is the layer of red light on the surface of the statue—a strange glow that cannot be seen with normal vision, but can only be seen with the aid of the biological brain.

This is supposed to indicate the light with energy, but Gehr always feels that it is different from the previous weapons with soul energy, but he can't say how it is different.

After a slight pause, Gehr still picked up the statue, but he didn't plan to absorb the energy in it immediately, but was going to take it back and study it first, after all, after understanding the origin of the energy needed by the biological brain, he instinctively resisted this absorption.

But unexpectedly, the moment he held the statue, the energy contained in the statue rushed directly into Gehr's body along the skin in contact like a riot, and the energy bar rose rapidly, reaching the 100% limit.

Unlike the usual energy absorption, this energy was like a violently burning flame, and as soon as it entered Gehr's body, it made him feel as if the inside of his human body was completely boiling, and he couldn't stop it at all.

The pain, the intense pain, the pain that exceeded the limits of the human body spread throughout the body in an instant, and at that moment Gehr was completely unaware of the existence of his body, and his consciousness was completely occupied by endless pain. (To be continued......)
