(I have just returned to school and have quite a lot of time. I will seize this opportunity to add more updates and chapters. Please comment, haha)
"The military mage is ready!"
"The heavy cavalry regiment is ready!"
"The elite infantry group has been assembled."
Aleister was stationed in a military camp on the edge of the plain within the Kingdom of Sevetan. In front of the road leading to the interior of the Kingdom of Sevetan, three troops with different functions were ready to go.
Waiting for the commanders to issue orders, these troops, which assembled most of the forces in the Kingdom of Aleister in order to completely defeat Severtan, were stronger than the troops that had previously fought against Severtan on the plain battlefield. Elite existence.
Aleister is not ready to wait any longer, this battle is already the end.
"For Aleister, for our kingdom, soldiers, set out, we will return victorious!"
In a somewhat noisy environment due to the gathering of a large number of soldiers, the order from the supreme commander was transmitted to the ears of all soldiers through amplification spells, and the horn of attack sounded at this moment.
"receive!"
"yes!"
"Set off!"
The captains and commanders of each army branch roared in response, waved the corresponding military flags, and led their troops, following the guidance projected by the flying mages on the ground, toward the Kingdom of Sevetan in a mighty but orderly manner. The direction presses into the past.
A large number of mages float in the air, using long-distance observation spells to detect the movements of the enemy defenders in Severant.
"Attention, about twenty kilometers ahead is the rock fortress of Severtan. This is also the only line of defense outside the royal capital. There are a large number of Severtan soldiers guarding it. It is not clear whether there are a sufficient number of enemies. Magicians and wizards are in charge."
The communication from the reconnaissance mage was conveyed to the commander. After a brief pause, the commander immediately made a decision based on the current situation.
"Staying for a while ten kilometers away, the mage group uses long-range strike spells to jointly cast spells to attack the fortress. Other troops are on standby!"
"clear."
The order from the commander was quickly issued, and the mages gathered together to cover the entire army with several buff spells.
Warm fire, breeze barrier, earth blessing, three low-level protection spells enveloped all Arestle's army.
The severe cold that entered the territory of Severtan was dispersed by the gathered inert fire elements, and the breeze barrier ensured that the long-lasting north wind from the Santa Ana snowfield could not take away the body temperature of the soldiers.
Finally, the blessing of the earth allows some slightly bumpy roads to be automatically filled in by the earth element when the army passes by, turning them into smooth roads that are conducive to advancement.
With the help of the mage, the environment that the Aleisterians in Severant were not very adaptable to had no effective impact. Aleister's army marched straight in, reaching the rock fortress twenty kilometers away.
The environment of Severtan determined that it was impossible for their kingdom to disperse its towns. The royal capital and a circle extending outwards basically gathered 80% of the population of Severtan.
Marching along the way, Arestle's army did not encounter any towns or the like, but only saw a few small villages and hunting huts. They did not have the habit of killing civilians. As long as the other party did not take the lead, Arestle's soldiers would also Not interested in adding to the killing.
Of course, there were some fanatical Severtans who shouted "For Severtan!" and rushed towards Arestle's army with crude weapons. The marching army had no extra mercy, and the iron hooves of the armored heavy cavalry directly hit them. It crushed and marched without any stagnation.
The heavy armored cavalry at the front observed the surrounding situation, and what came into view were the small villages that were gradually becoming more common around them. Some civilians with faces with expressions of fear and worry appeared behind the glass windows of the houses.
Their mentality was not shaken by this. These Arestle's cavalry were truly born in the military. Their iron-blooded demeanor and military style of executing orders without hesitation made them one of the most reliable forwards.
The distant rock fortress has entered the effective observation range of the mages.
The Severantan soldiers stood solemnly and silently on the thick and hard stone walls of the fortress, as well as the solid fortifications that almost completely blocked the road ahead, and a large number of fortresses that had been prepared and stood quietly in the wind and snow outside the fortress. Wentan iron-blooded soldier.
The word "heavily defended" can hardly fully describe the strength of the Rock Fortress at this moment.
"A tricky line of defense... But this time we have made adequate preparations. This immovable fortress cannot stop us. Infantrymen, pull up the alchemy bombs, and mages, be prepared to jointly cast spells, and put them in advance Bring the prepared earthquake spell array."
The commander looked at the image of the rock fortress that the mages had visualized in front of him, and analyzed it calmly.
If so much preparation had not been made in advance, this line of defense would have been enough to cause a lot of losses to Aleister's army. Can it be captured? Yes, but a large number of casualties among soldiers cannot be avoided.
But at this moment, Aleister's leading alchemy technology and magical power have become a powerful guarantee for breaking through the fortress.
A large number of alchemy bombs prepared in advance were dragged out of the boxes by the infantry and placed in front of the military formation.
Most of these creations from the shadow of the royal city are of varying quality, but the only thing you don't have to worry about is the quantity.
The dense alchemy bombs made Aleister's army feel numb. It would be no joke if these bombs were detonated together.
"Roar!" Some creatures that looked like white-haired gorillas emerged from the snow around Arestle's army. They were more than four meters tall and had arms as thick as an adult's waist. You can tell at a glance that these big white guys are definitely ruthless characters.
"Ice and Snow Puppet" Some elemental puppets with low physical strength have been strengthened in the snow with abundant ice elements in Seventan, but they are also very limited.
"These scrolls have finally been put to use. They have been piled up in the mage tower for several years without being sold. These ice and snow puppets, which are quite fragile but strong enough, are definitely the best bombardiers."
The creators of these puppets are a small team of military mages. As the leading mage spoke, he tore open the "Ice and Snow Puppet" summoning scroll in his hand, forming another huge ice and snow puppet.
Around these mages, a thick stack of torn spell scrolls was scattered on the ground.
When the spell scrolls were used up, hundreds of these puppets appeared in front of Arestle's military formation. They could not carry out any high-precision actions, but they brought these alchemy bombs and rushed in front of the enemy. It's still possible to throw it out.
"Go!" The mage passed a simple instruction to these brainless ice and snow puppets, asking these huge guys to carry the alchemical bombs on the ground.
Hundreds of tall ice and snow puppets brought all the numerous alchemy bombs with them and moved forward flexibly in the snow.
It is difficult for war horses and soldiers to walk in the snowy field, but in the eyes of these ice and snow puppets, it is as easy as going home.
"Heavy armored cavalry troops, follow the advance. The mages continue to prepare the earthquake spell and wait for the opportunity. The mages who do not need to prepare for joint casting can begin to attack the Rock Fortress."
"Understood." Following the commander's order, the heavy armored cavalry troops began to advance forward with the ice and snow puppet army, and the mages also began to chant spells.
Black clouds began to gather in the sky, forming over Arestle's army, and then moved towards the Rock Fortress at a speed that seemed slow but was actually fast.
Astronomical spells: Cumulus clouds and heavy rain, and in a cold environment like Seventan, it will turn into a hail disaster that is enough to smash the heads of ordinary people.
What's more important is that arcs of electricity are gathering in the cumulonimbus clouds, and the sound of thunder echoes in the valley, causing small avalanches to appear in some surrounding snow-covered mountains.
The power of nature itself and the electric current gathered by the mages surged in this moving dark cloud, turning the dark cloud that was about to cause heavy rain into a prelude to a thunderstorm.
The dark clouds flashing with thunderous light moved above the Rock Fortress
, the defenders of Seventan quickly realized that something was wrong, and withdrew the defenders on the city wall to avoid being attacked by the weird celestial phenomenon above their heads.
"Ping Tie Pong," the hail, which is bigger than the fist, landed down from the sky, accompanied by the dazzling lightning that was smashed together. The egg falls.
Soldiers below the formal knight stage will be injured if struck by lightning, and those below the trainee knight stage will directly lose their combat ability.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat inside the fortress to defend, don't stand outside!"
Under the influence of this celestial spell, the defenders of the fortress could only withdraw into the city to prevent the army from suffering a lot of losses before the attackers from afar could reach them.
At the same time that the celestial spells began to affect the defenders of the Rock Fortress, the group of ice and snow puppets carrying a large number of alchemical bombs also approached three kilometers away from the Rock Fortress.
The Severantan soldiers guarding the city wall noticed these huge puppets with a slight delay. Their white figures concealed their advancing figures in the snow, and the roars these big guys made from time to time were also noticeable. Buried in the wind and snow blowing continuously in Severtan.
"Prepare to defend, let the necromancer prepare the means first!" The soldiers guarding the fortress wall reacted quickly and adjusted the team's formation.
Some of the few gray-robed mages in the military formation also tore up the scrolls in their hands, drank the magic potion, and chanted the incantation of necromancy in their mouths.
One of the most suitable spells for positional warfare is necromancy. Severantan's poor mage power can only be made up for by this suitable spell type.
"Ka ka ka ka, ow!" A roar suddenly sounded in front of Arestle's attacking army. On the path of the ice and snow puppets, the snow was suddenly broken.
Skeletons wearing tattered armor, holding standard long knives, with green soul fire burning in their eye sockets, and zombies with shriveled muscles, but extremely tough and powerful bodies, broke out from under the snow where they had previously hidden, and stood under the snow. The ground quickly rushed towards the advancing ice and snow puppets on hands and feet.
There are a lot of these undead, and buried densely under the snow are these undead warriors who have been prepared in advance. As long as a magic power is activated, this group of tireless undead warriors will swarm up and drown the enemy.
Moreover, the strength of these undead skeletons and zombies is not weak. They were all elite soldiers of Seventan during their lives. After death, their bodies were transformed into undead. Although their skills were almost completely lost, the strength of their bodies driven by magic power was not. Dropped too much.
"Bang!" The huge fist of the ice and snow puppet hit the first batch of fastest rushing zombies, and with one punch, the undead creature, which was tiny in comparison, was smashed into the snow.
"Ouch!" However, while the zombie was not afraid of the pain, the soft snow layer absorbed the force. The zombie who was punched into the snow layer was fine.
Letting out a harsh and hoarse roar, the zombie scratched the ice and snow puppet's not-too-tough body with its hands and feet, causing ice crystals to fly.
"AaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaed" Undead soldiers, several times more numerous than ice and snow puppets, rushed between the ice and snow puppets. Zombies, which were much more flexible than skeletons, jumped up and clung to the huge body of ice and snow puppets, scratching with their sharp claws. The body of the ice and snow puppet causes ice crystals to fall continuously.
The ice and snow puppets are very powerful, but their speed and defense are not good enough. They have no good way to deal with the large number of zombies that come up. They can only catch them one by one, and then use force to kill these difficult little things. Tear in half down the middle.
"Ouch, click!" An ice puppet that had been attacked by too many zombies, its arm joints were riddled with holes. It broke after being bitten and torn hard by a zombie with its big mouth several times.
The ice and snow puppet with only one arm was immediately unable to cause effective damage to the undead soldiers. As the slower-moving skeleton soldiers after the zombies arrived, the snow puppet was tripped by a large number of squeezing and moving undead soldiers and collapsed. On top of the snow.
Immediately, the ice and snow puppet was overwhelmed by the undead army, with sharp claws and blades piercing into the body, even though the magic core was hidden in the huge
The body was also accidentally touched by the attacks that kept falling like raindrops, causing it to disintegrate.
This is just a microcosm. Undead creatures can feel magic. They have no IQ, but they will kill the "living creatures" in front of them under the instructions of the necromancer.
The ice and snow puppets driven by magic cores are living creatures in their eyes, and they will frantically search for the magic core to destroy the ice and snow puppets.
Unknowingly, dozens of ice and snow puppets in front had been overwhelmed by the undead army, and their magic core was torn apart, turning into broken ice that was no different from the ice and snow on the ground.
"Well, that's almost it. Let's put thirty more ice and snow puppets up there, and let all the undead creatures climb onto the ice and snow puppets and gather them together!"
The mage who commanded the ice and snow puppets watched the undead army quickly destroying the ice and snow puppets, and was not nervous at all. Although the ice and snow puppets were completely unable to do anything to these undead soldiers, these ice and snow puppets were filled with alchemy bombs.
Thirty more ice and snow puppets pushed forward. These "living creatures" with magic cores in their bodies attracted all the attention of the undead creatures. .
Densely packed skeletons and zombies scrambled to climb onto these ice and snow puppets, which had little ability to resist.
This group of brainless undead creatures didn't notice at all that except for the ice and snow puppets coming up, the other big white guys had already begun to retreat.
The ice and snow puppets traveled very quickly in the snow. It only took half a minute to cover a distance of about 300 meters. In this time, the ice and snow puppets that were on top were already overwhelmed by the undead.
The attacks of the undead are constantly chipping away at the bodies of the ice and snow puppets, and it only takes a short time for these ice and snow puppets to be destroyed.
However, Mage Arestle's goal has been achieved. An astonishing number of undead soldiers have all gathered on those ice and snow puppets, and Bombs like enemies gathered together like this.
"Roar!" The retreating ice and snow puppets took out the alchemy bombs they carried from their bodies in a unified movement. After roaring, they used their huge strength to throw out the alchemy bombs.
The bomb crossed a distance of several hundred meters and landed on the dense pile of undead soldiers. Then, scattered explosions with different powers and ranges spread in front, and deafening explosions continued to sound.
The resistant bodies of zombies and skeletons are meaningless in the face of explosions. Bone fragments fly everywhere, and burnt zombie limbs fall to the ground.
The thick layer of undead soldiers covering the remains of the snow puppets was cleared away by the alchemy bombs thrown by hundreds of ice and snow puppets.
As a result, the explosion touched a large number of alchemical bombs carried in the bodies of the dozens of destroyed ice and snow puppets below.
The explosion prompted an explosion, and all the bombs gathered together and were detonated at almost the same time. "Boom!", dazzling flames rose from the ground, and a huge pillar of fire bloomed in the pile of undead.
"Crash, snap, snap, snap, snap." The remains of the undead all over the sky fell from the sky after the explosion, making a messy sound as they fell on the snow.
It is the purest destruction, the most suitable for dealing with this group of difficult undead. No matter how hard you can ignore the pain, it will be of no use if it is blown to pieces.
The undead army was easily dealt with, and the faces of the Severantan soldiers guarding the city changed. These undead warriors, whose original goal was to deal with the Aleister soldiers, had found the wrong target from the beginning and were attracted by the ice and snow puppets. .
It wouldn't be bad if he could clean up those huge white guys that looked very troublesome like he did at the beginning.
Unexpectedly, this group of undead warriors turned into a pile of garbage in the explosion before they were so majestic. This was really bad.
"Boom! Boom, boom, boom!"
Moreover, Arestle's offensive did not slow down. Without the obstruction of the undead army, the ice and snow puppets began to accelerate, pressing towards the fortress in a mighty manner, and constantly throwing alchemy bombs in the direction of the fortress.
Although the quality of some alchemical bombs is worrisome, either they are not powerful enough at all, or they simply don’t even explode.
But in the face of sheer numbers, nothing is a problem.
Explosions continued to occur, with fire and debris flying everywhere, and the shock waves shook the mountains on both sides of the ground. They continued to slide, and it looked like they were about to collapse.
"No, we can't forcefully charge into the formation, retreat to the fortress, first resist these bombs and then use catapults and crossbows to fight back!"
The Seventan soldiers guarding the outside of the fortress were surrounded by alchemical bombs exploding everywhere, and it was simply wishful thinking to fight back.
We can only retreat to the fortress temporarily, use the strong fortress walls to defend, and consume some of these alchemy bombs.
The soldiers guarding the city quickly retreated into the fortress, and the soldiers inside were also prepared for a counterattack.
"We should also have alchemy bombs, right? Push them all to the top of the fortress, and then push them down when the opponent attacks the city!"
"There are also those precious magic scrolls sent by the royal capital. I just used them regardless. I used all the magic scrolls for the earth vein rock collapse. They will not be allowed to enter even if the valley collapses."
"The sacrificial blades are also ready. If the enemy rushes into the fortress, don't hesitate to replace a few of them before you die and drag them into the arms of my lord!"
"Okay, move quickly, crossbowmen, lead the team to the firing port, keep covering the front for strikes, and set up the crossbows. The knight can't stand even one shot of this thing."
"If you have the advantage of defending the city, use it. Don't be afraid. No matter how powerful their spells are, they won't..."
The commander of the Seventan garrison loudly ordered the soldiers to move. The Rock Fortress had left many treasures for Aleister's army. Those undead warriors could only be regarded as appetizers.
He encouraged the soldiers not to be afraid of Arestle's spell. The power of the meteorite had indeed destroyed the confidence of a large number of soldiers. At this time, they should not be afraid of it.
But after all, the commander underestimated the terrifying power that the mage can exert under sufficient conditions.
Before he finished speaking, the entire Rock Fortress began to shake. The ground shook continuously, shaking up, down, left, and right in all directions. The power from the earth continued to exert its force on the solid building of the Rock Fortress.
"What's going on?!" The commander was also a little panicked at this moment. The sudden vibration foreshadowed something that made his face turn pale. An abnormal situation on the ever-changing battlefield was a serious thing.
"Earth elements...huge amounts of earth elements! A lot of earth elements are underneath the fortress!"
A mage who served as a staff member answered the commander's question with a pale face. Although he was a necromancer, he could still feel the huge amount of earth elements gathering under the ground. It was the spell of the Arestle people.
In the Arestle military formation, led by an archmage, dozens of official mages gathered in front of the prepared formation chart and chanted incantations, guiding the legion spells used to destroy the entire Rock Fortress.
Sixth level legion spell • Earthquake spell. Level spell does not represent power. Level spell corresponds only to the complexity of magic. Sufficient output is the real way to increase power.
The piles of magic crystals around are used to increase the power of this modified sixth-level spell to an exaggerated level.
With the combined efforts of a large number of mages, this spell was guided, and the earth elements gathered under the target, shaking the earth, shaking everything in the valley, and violently destroying the rock fortress above the ground.
"Rumble." The valleys on both sides experienced avalanches due to the power of the earthquake technique, and a large amount of ice and snow poured into the valley.
Amidst the increasingly violent shaking, the architectural structure of the Rock Fortress, which was not prepared for the power of nature, gradually became unable to withstand it, cracked from the middle, collapsed and shattered, along with the Severantan defenders inside. Prepare the backhand to destroy.
"Charge!" roars came from Arestle's army.
The ice and snow puppet walked through the wind in the snow, continuously smashing the alchemical bombs stored in its body in the direction of the collapsed rock fortress.
The heavy armored cavalry following the ice and snow puppet army raised their weapons. Once the ice and snow puppets' alchemy bombs are used up, they will
It was time for them to charge.
Arestle's army was as powerful as a rainbow.
