Magical battleship, aboard Sky Wing.
"He actually charged directly."
The petite figure stood on the edge of the deck on a chair, wearing a fluffy dress and exquisite embroidered stockings. He leaned out half of his body to observe the situation on the ground.
"My Lady, you are in danger!"
"Aren't you here?"
Lovely put down the magic telescope in her hand, ignored her machine girl's nagging, jumped down from the chair, dragged her complicated and fluffy princess dress, and moved a sofa chair that was about the same height as her slightly clumsily, and then Arrived on the other side of the deck.
After the position was stable, he stepped directly on the velvet fabric of the chair with his shoes and continued to lean out to observe.
"As I expected, Randall doesn't plan to get involved now and reap the benefits?"
"But, can't the situation on the ground be confirmed directly through the magic panel in the command room?"
"What are you thinking about? There is no such clear confirmation on the fixed panel."
Confirm clearly?
Saya blinked and an idea suddenly came to her mind.
"Uh... are you trying to confirm where that person is?"
"!"
Hearing this, the fifth princess of the Lion Garden almost fell off her chair, and the telescope in her hand shook three times before she could hold it steady.
Lovely turned around and looked at Saya with displeasure on his face: "What nonsense are you talking about? What did the princess ask him to do? He sent two letters in succession to instruct the princess to do this and that. I don't care about such a bastard. Where will he die?"
"oh……"
I haven’t said who that person is yet...
Lovely used the telescope to observe for a moment, and after confirming that he was not there, he jumped out of the chair with a cold face, grabbed the back of the chair with some violence, and dragged it back along the deck.
Saya: "..."
If your resentment comes out, it’s better not to offend her...
Lovely leaned the chair next to the deck, stood up and was silent for a moment before saying:
"It's about to begin."
This isn't actually her war.
The person who received the official appointment from the royal capital and represented the regular army of Shiyuan was not her, but Randall.
Without legal permission, the Sky Wing has no right to fire at other countries' troops abroad.
Unless it reaches the humanitarian level,
"Give me the footage of Camp Randall and monitor any abnormalities inside."
There would be no reason for the Hooffire Empire to launch such a hasty siege.
There must be something hidden behind it.
…
On the ground, Ryan watched the army getting closer and closer on the plain. If crossing the valley was excusable due to the terrain, it was also reasonable not to bring the hooffire war horse.
But he didn't even see a red flame dragon.
The most elite standard equipment of the Hoof Fire Empire, these two are indispensable. The flaming war horses with iron hoofs are the spiritual symbol of the empire. It is said that the path that the knights gallop on will leave a field of wildfire and no grass will grow.
Although Ryan was glad that he did not witness this scene today, the worry in his heart became deeper and deeper.
What on earth are they doing?
They looked unprepared. It was impossible for Marcus not to arrange these things. Could it be that they planned to tear down the west wall with their bare hands.
"preparation--"
Ryan drew his sword anyway.
This is a battlefield, and he will not underestimate the enemy's strength just because of this. As Marcus, the pinnacle of the third-level god, he can actually tear down the city wall alone.
He raised his sword high, and the archers and spell teams behind him got ready.
This is not the first time he has commanded a battle, but it is the first time he has faced off against a commander of Marcus’s level.
Not being able to understand the other party's intentions made Ryan a little uneasy.
But not confused.
Even if the other party has contributed to the order in the courtyard.
"put!"
Opening his blue eyes, he swung his sword forward with all his strength, arrows and spells were released at the same time, and densely packed missiles flew out from the city wall.
And at the same time.
"The magic cannon is coming, be careful to avoid it!!"
After hearing the reminder from the messenger, the city defense troops composed of various forces on the city wall retreated one after another, looking for reliable bunkers.
A white spot lit up in the field of vision, and then twelve long-range magic cannons hit the barrier one after another, causing the entire city wall to shake.
This time, the cracks were clearly visible, and it was only one or two clicks away from criticality.
"We can't survive the next round, haven't the craftsmen been able to fix it yet!"
"It's useless! We are analyzing the structure of the power source, which is different from the general principle!"
"Where's the Craftsmen's Association? Go find someone from the Craftsmen's Association!"
Ryan slowly leaned out behind the wall, expecting the craftsmen to be there. In fact, he had never seen them again after hearing the news about the Hoof Fire Empire's advance. The power source technology of the barrier was controlled internally, and the craftsmen present could only I can try on-site imitation.
The technical difficulties involved may be difficult to overcome in the short term.
The magic cannon is a problem that must be solved. Vanessa has already taken the dragons there, but before that, they have to face several rounds of salvos.
"Is the distance so far away?" Jutman came back wearing a hood, and the black arrow was already on the string.
"It is said to be the work of Marshal West of the Empire," Ryan said solemnly, "It is indeed too far and the accuracy is beyond imagination."
This is much more powerful than the magic cannon set up by the Mechanical God Cult outside White Harbor Town. Although it is not as powerful as the main gun of the magic warship, can mass-produced weapons also achieve this level?
"Bah, cough... damn, all the ashes fell on my head." Joey complained, finally understanding why Jutman wore a hat.
But in order for people to see his face clearly, he never considered the option of a mage hat.
Several people came out from behind the bunker one after another, looking in the direction of the plain but their eyes were stunned.
"What's going on?" Jutman pulled up his hood, but the sky was actually so hazy that there was no sunlight to disturb his vision. "Am I dazzled? We didn't leave a single body in the shooting just now?"
"It's not dazzling," Elf Queen Elfa leaned against the wall above, but her eyes were tightly knitted. "It was the man who blocked the attack."
"What!? Can you even do this?"
Joey was confused.
He looked at the front, and the person running there at the forefront was undoubtedly the guy who was so strong that he was scared to death.
"How did you do it?" Ryan concentrated.
Marcus has never shown this ability before.
Elfa only answered him with two words——
"Blood."
Ryan's eyes widened slightly, and he quickly reacted. He held the wall with one hand and looked at Marcus, who was running wildly this way.
Do you use your own divine blood as a price?
He finally realized at this moment that Marcus on the battlefield was even more terrifying than his usual majestic posture.
No, it's not just scary.
Ryan shook his head and raised his sword without hesitation.
"preparation--"
"put!"
The city defense forces were only given five seconds to complete the second round of release when not everyone was ready.
The arrows are mixed with spells and thrown out, and enchantment is also mixed into them. After hitting, a wind vortex will be formed on the ground, slowing down the enemy's progress and pulling the formation.
boom.
This time Ryan clearly saw that Marcus just waved his hand while running, and a blur of dark red blood pulled out a large curtain and flashed past.
And all the spells and arrows were shot down in mid-air like small stones.
"I see."
Only then did Ryan recall the first piece of inconspicuous information——
Marcus first entered Crownless City on foot.
From that time on, he had measured the land with his own feet and learned how long it would take for the army to get within range.
At the moment, with the volley of magic cannons from behind blocking their vision, most people were left unscathed and confused.
And trial and error cost another opportunity.
These two fruitless bow draws were enough for them to close a considerable distance. This was a fatal section where they could only be beaten in vain, thus minimizing the losses of the army.
He is worthy of being the leading commander-in-chief in the mainland.
Ryan calmed himself down and raised his sword again.
"All troops, free fire!"
Faced with such a terrifying enemy charging this way, as if they could smash the entire city wall with one punch just by getting close, the city defenders unfurled their bows and arrows, chanted spells, and continued to carry out long-range strikes.
Marcus didn't bother anymore this time and allowed the spell to hit him without any impact. He only took action when the barrage became more intensive, and the Hooffire Imperial Army following behind him began to suffer casualties.
Joey's voice trembled when he saw this scene: "This guy is so strong, why don't you tear down the wall in the city first, so that we don't have to defend it...?"
"What are you thinking," Jutman complained coldly to him, "You really think this wall is no hindrance to him."
Joey glanced down at his feet and swallowed.
No...
"He has achieved the purpose of destroying the barrier with the magic cannon," Sherrond responded holding the battle ax. "The summoning of the army cannot be concealed, but thanks to his performance at this moment-"
Several people glanced around.
fear.
The impression of killing a god by oneself began to affect the morale of the city defense army.
If you stay in the city and destroy the city wall, you will feel that you have to do so to your advantage. But at this moment, charging forward like an army commander, the breath of war suddenly chokes people's throats.
No matter how strong Marcus is, if he stays here to face the encirclement and suppression alone, he probably has no chance of winning.
And he was now followed by fifty thousand people.
An army of fifty thousand.
"Wait a minute," Joey pursed his lips, "Let's make an agreement first. If we say that we are from the Lion Garden, will they give preferential treatment to the prisoners?"
"Shut up." Jutman didn't want to talk to him anymore. "If you say a few more words, the Dragon Queen might come back later and take your sacrificial flag first."
"...!"
Joey quickly zipped up his mouth.
Several people looked at Ryan standing on the edge of the city wall, saw him raising his head, and understood that a decision had been made.
"The opponent is indeed an outstanding commander. If I really fight against him with perfect preparations, I'm afraid I have no hope of winning."
"But today is different."
"If we cannot overcome such difficulties, then our efforts over the past few months will be completely meaningless."
Ryan said as he pulled out the Holy Sword in the Lake, and the golden-white flames shone like stars and holy rays.
The city defense troops were more or less attracted by this light and looked towards him.
Ryan Healy.
He has not been awarded the title of commander-in-chief. Everyone trusts him and entrusts him with the important task of coordination because this adventurer can connect all the forces alone.
That unyielding and never-extinguished flame seems to have the charm that can illuminate people's hearts. It is two different extremes from Marcus' killing.
But they are all qualities that only the best people can possess.
""Fire Spirit...awakens"! "
Oops!
Blazing flames rose up from Ryan's body, covering his whole body, and the air made a roaring sound.
The obsidian sword and the red fire were enough to attract everyone's attention, including the imperial troops who were desperately trying to shorten the distance.
Ryan carried the holy sword on one shoulder, his eyes burning with determination.
He knew very well that the city defense army needed an opportunity to reverse their morale.
Marcus raised his head and looked at him, with a hint of relief in his eyes.
Ryan closed his eyes when he faced his gaze, and clenched the sword with his ten fingers. The unquenchable fire in his heart surged and burned on the sword.
Originally, this move was reserved for Luo Wei.
But there is no need to dwell on too many choices right now.
Opening his eyes again, Ryan tried his best to steady his body, as if if he didn't do this, all the bones in his body would be broken.
"Use this sword to cut through Dawn!"
He gritted his teeth and swung the holy sword down suddenly.
""Divine Phoenix Liebo"! "
Chirp——!
There was a crisp sound, and the flames seemed to be suppressed, compressed with extremely pure power. The city wall seemed to have experienced an explosion, and the entire floor tiles were pressed down.
Marcus stopped for the first time.
He looked at the phoenix fire shape coming from not far away. He bent to one side and clenched his fists. The muscles in his arms swelled and his skin was as red as blood.
In the blink of an eye, Marcus stretched out his hands and caught the sword skill that Todoroki pressed in front of him.
clang--! !
It is difficult for ordinary people to understand what kind of force is colliding with each other. The surrounding soldiers of the Hoof Fire Empire were blown away in a circle, and only the divine ones were still barely resisting.
Marcus was dragged forward, his footsteps cutting dirt on the ground.
"snort."
The weight in his hand made him groan. Sure enough, it was a bit reluctant to pick it up with only his body.
There really weren't many juniors who deserved his slightest admiration.
It's just that the previous one was invisible, but this one is completely pure in strength.
None of them are divine beings.
Using too much divine power seemed to be substandard. Marcus took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly closed and opened again.
The whites of his eyes turned scarlet.
boom--! !
A black-red burst slowly broke through Phoenix's body. Marcus stepped forward and tore the flames in half with his hands.
The passing sword screamed as it died, and the remaining sparks scattered in the air, dissipating little by little.
Marcus crossed his arms and stared at Ryan with inhuman eyes.
"Uh... Ryan, why did he tear your phoenix off with his bare hands?" Joey said uncontrollably.
Ryan did not respond to him, but the flames of hunting burned all over his body, and his gray-white cloak danced accordingly.
Although it is somewhat inappropriate on the battlefield.
But now, here -
His heart burned with the desire to defeat a powerful enemy.
"..."
At this moment, several figures fell beside him, standing on the ruined city wall, looking down with him on the imperial army that was not far away.
"It's time for us to return the favor to you this time." Elufa, the Elf Queen of the Lake, said.
"Just think of it as thanking you for everything you have done for us." Wild Elf Lord Demilie said.
"You can always leave your back to the dwarves!" the dwarf king Kamesh said, holding up his axe.
In addition, there are also the Goblin Holy Wizard, the Ogre Chief Hammer, the Chief Knight of the Neutral Kingdom of Mount Kali, Dundry, and the Demon King's General Jiti Qiu...
They are all lords of various forces who are respected by force, or chief warriors who are more powerful than the lords.
Facing a powerful enemy like Marcus, they understood Ryan's mood very well, and at the same time they also wanted to compete with this third-level god who had fought all the way to the throne.
"Everyone..."
Ryan stood there and looked around. In addition to these people, Sherrond, Jas and others were also standing there, and even Joey also stood up.
"Humph, isn't it just to tear up a phoenix?" Joey suddenly became very confident as he stood with so many strong men, "I also have seventy-two kinds of animals generated by magic here. He can tear them apart as he pleases."
Jutman kicked him with his boot.
Can you pay attention to the atmosphere...
It finally felt like a duel between strong men, but you stopped it all with just one word.
Ryan smiled and lowered his head and shook it.
"Thank you everyone. I understand that this is not my own war, so please give me a helping hand!"
"good!!!"
"Gah!"
"Goo!"
Everyone said in unison.
…
…
The ruins of the God War, the underground manufacturing site of the Craftsmen Guild.
With everyone gathered around, Luo Wei closed his eyes and frowned slightly for a moment after reading the information collected in his hands.
"Athetana, could you please arrange for someone from the studio to send a message to me?"
"No problem, who do you want to pass it on to?"
"Give Love a gift."
"What are you going to tell her?"
Luo Wei opened his eyes and saw the same meaning as him in the eyes of the other people.
"..."
After a moment of silence, he spoke:
"Let her fly higher."
