47. The unexpected and the unexpected

Thirty thousand skeleton cavalry, under Aderozo's orders, surged forward like the water that had broken the embankment.

The rolling white tide split into two and rushed towards the staircase of bones built on the walls on the left and right, just as the rushing river met the blocked reef and flowed to both sides. But the sense of recklessness, devouring everything, and destroying everything has not diminished in the slightest.

All the skeleton mages have withdrawn from the offensive route of these skeleton cavalry. Only the skeleton archers and skeleton archers were still standing in front of the line, always keeping the walls of the fortress under control, but because of this, they were on the route of the skeleton cavalry charge.

Without the slightest hesitation or pause, all the skeleton cavalry directly collided directly with these skeleton archers.

Or rather, run over.

A large number of skeleton archers were instantly smashed into countless broken bones, splashing everywhere. And even the skeleton archers ended up like this, not to mention the skeleton soldiers and skeleton warriors who were just consumed as material, and almost everything the skeleton cavalry went along was smashed into countless bone fragments under its furious impact.

On the fortress, everyone can clearly see this scene.

"The charge has begun!" Lévy let out a soft snort.

"Damage." The Abazar remained calm, ordering all Iron Winged soldiers to be quickly returned to their positions and reporting damage to the shock shield.

"There are a total of 4,000 shock shields that cannot be activated." The Steel-Feathered Soldier on the left line of defense quickly spoke, "The line of defense can still be maintained. ”

"It's pretty much the same on my side. However, it is still no problem to keep the defensive line running. The Iron Winged Soldier on the right flank also said.

Because acid rain is not a torrential rain, damage to the shock shield is not particularly troublesome. This also allows the shock shield to withstand not need to be changed frequently all the time, and can last longer. Plus in the end, Cecilia forced a counterattack with her personal magic. interrupted the operation of the entire acid rain magic array, although it made her wear and tear not light. But it did reduce the amount of damage that the entire steel wing needed to bear.

Subsequently, Abazar quickly issued a series of battle orders, and the 8,000 steel-winged soldiers who had lost their shock shields withdrew directly to the rear, and were quickly replaced by another 8,000 steel-winged soldiers under the city walls. The 20,000 steel-winged soldiers in the rear also returned to the temporary quartermaster office to replace their equipment, and then returned to standby, ready to go to the front line at any time to replace them.

Because after the charge of 30,000 skeleton cavalry, there was an attack of a full 100,000 undead skeletons, these were real skeleton soldiers, who had already reached the fourth or fifth order. It's no longer just the first or second order. Purely in terms of combat effectiveness, these skeleton warriors and skeleton warriors are already equivalent to the real fourth- and fifth-level legions, which can basically be regarded as a standard with steel wings, thunder lions, etc., especially the enemy has a numerical advantage, which has to make all the legions in the entire fortress start to mobilize.

Not only the other 20,000 Iron Winged soldiers, but also the Thunder Lion, Cecilia Guard, Pitch Black Wing, etc., were ordered by William to mobilize, ready to go to the city wall at any time to fight the enemy army. The only ones who did not receive the mobilization order were the four legions: Rena's First Cavalry Regiment, Angel's Frost Legion, and the Legion of the Wings of Judgment, now led by Levi, and the Priest Corps brought by Shephaño.

The 1st Cavalry Regiment was too small in number, only a thousand men. On the battlefield where the two sides can be said to have directly invested nearly 250,000, this number is simply a wave. The Frost Legion, on the other hand, is a private legion belonging to Angel, and William is not qualified to give orders, and even if William has, he does not want to take over the command. Because Angel is also a good general, she knows more about the Frost Legion than anyone else, so she knows better about the best time for the Frost Legion to fight.

As for the Wings of Judgment. This is a very unique legion.

Although his establishment is only 10,000, his soldiers are composed of the real elite soldiers of Steel Wings, Thunder Lion, Black Wings, Silver Temples, and Cecilia's Guard. This is a truly elite division that is already infinitely close to the standard of the sixth-level legion. They are good at a wide range of combat fields, but they are currently the only ace legion of the Void Duchy. William had high expectations for this legion, so he didn't want to waste it on this war.

The same is true of the priest combat group: the strength of the priests is not particularly strong, and it is uneven, and the number of people is only about 100. So I arranged them at the end, ready to cooperate with the Wings of Judgment, after all, the recovery of divine power is not comparable to the spirit and magic of a magician, only meditation is required, and divine power needs to be slowly recovered through continuous pious prayer.

According to Levy's knowledge of the Undead Legion, he clearly told William that within forty-eight hours after the appearance of the Undead Vanguard Army, there would definitely be at least one complete formation of the Undead Army Legion of the Regular Army Combat Sequence to arrive on the battlefield. The so-called regular army sequence refers to those undead legions composed of non-skeleton cannon fodder such as black knights and black knights, while the complete establishment will definitely have at least 100,000 cavalry, more than 300,000 infantry and a large group of necromancers, and even hundreds of thousands of ghoul-level cannon fodder.

In the absence of reinforcements, to defend the Savage Fortress at the scale of the defenders in the current Savage Fortress, even William felt a little weak.

But no matter how weak he was, he had to defend this fortress.

Therefore, to ensure that there are available troops under his command as much as possible, and then rely on the advantage of the location to defend the city, this is the only plan that William can think of. It can even be said that all the generals present could only come up with the same combat methods as William after listening to Levy's account of the size of the regular army of the Legion of the Dead.

The regular army combat sequence is very different from cannon fodder.

Previously, there were a total of three legions sent by Lake to the Golden Left Road, but only one was deployed by the regular army, and it was not a complete formation, only a remnant, and the other two corps commanders were only temporarily leading the vanguard army, mainly collecting materials and galloping to the battlefield.

But it's a pity, because of Sean's troublemaking and misestimation of the foundation of the thousand-year-old Covenant empire. All three legions have been buried—the soul of the commander, not any ordinary soul. Death is complete annihilation, and it is not easy to replenish it. Even if it's Lake. This invasion of corpses and bones only brought the souls of twelve legion commanders, and three were destroyed in the previous battle, although Lake did not say anything, but the big and small Lucas knew very well that Lake was really distressed.

William didn't know this, and he didn't care so much, his idea was very simple, the Wings of Judgment was the last trump card, and it should be put on the last appearance. If you can not let the Thunder Lion go up, you will not let the Thunder Lion go up. If the steel wings can really block it, then let them all block it.

It's just that I look at it now.

William shook his head helplessly, he knew that steel wings alone would definitely not be able to stop him, and it was estimated that he would have to pull another army into battle.

The replacement of troops on the fortress walls has been completed, and the skeleton cavalry in front has officially stepped on the nearly fifty-meter-long white bone staircase, and perhaps in a few seconds, the two sides will start a real hand-to-hand combat.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, the defenders still have a big advantage.

Skeleton cavalry is a backlash, requiring a multiplication of strength and a multiplier of the dangers it needs to face; And steel wings. There were also shock shields specifically designed against cavalry.

Abaza sneered: "Stand up!" ”

All the steel winged soldiers instantly raised their shields in front of them, shielded the ground fiercely, and then heard a muffled sound of "click", and the nail stakes hidden in the shield immediately hit the city wall. This means of standing a shield. Steel Wings didn't know how many times they had been trained, so it was clear that there were 30,000 Iron Winged soldiers standing up for shields, but the sound of stakes hitting the city wall was like only one sound. The only constant was the earthquake-like tremors.

If you want to build a fortress, you don't just have to say it. Generally, very special materials are required. At the very least, the walls of the fortress could not be built with ordinary materials. After all, there is an eighth-level earth magic in elemental magic: the Great Earthquake, which can be stimulated by the vibration of the leylines, so as to simulate a strong earthquake similar to a ten-magnitude earthquake, if the fortress walls are not mixed with special materials to build resistance, a large earthquake is enough to destroy a fortress.

Therefore, in the construction of the fortress, the city walls are the most important, and the materials selected must be the best and the most stable. As for the destruction of other buildings in the fortress, it doesn't matter, as long as there is a geographical advantage to defend.

And like the Tonis Fortress, through a special layout, the architectural pattern in the fortress is arranged into a magic array, so that the entire fortress and even the entire mountain range are not shaken by the magic of the earth system, and there is only one in the entire Miracle Continent.

Therefore, although the impact shield nail pile of steel wings will cause some damage to the fortress wall, at least it will not damage the foundation of the entire city wall. Unless the army of the undead has some powerful siege equipment to destroy this wall through physical means, it will not be so easy to destroy for a while.

When the nail pile is laid, the real hole card of the steel wings is finally lifted.

Continental Barriers!

A strong momentum like a solid wall rose from the Iron Wings Army.

That's the power of the law.

That is the law of the rules.

A special law that should not appear in the legion is actually formed at this moment.

For the average person, there may not be anything at all. However, for those who have already stepped into the realm of the Holy Realm, they can see at a glance that the so-called momentum rising from the body of steel wings is simply the bonus of the power of the law.

But the only people who can really sense the ownership of this law are the legendary powerhouses present.

Sturdy.

It belongs to the law of protection and protection, which is one of the core laws of the world, and belongs to the same level of law as the law of time and space.

In the eyes of the legendary powerhouse, a diamond-shaped crystal barrier appeared on the body of the steel wings, and one grid after another quickly assembled into a huge barrier, with a brilliant light shining on it.

This is the power of embodied laws that only the Legendary Mighty can see. But only the direct descendants of the god Shephaño knew where the projection of this crystal-like barrier came from - it was the crystal wall of the plane that sheltered the entire plane from being corrupted by the power of the Void Storm!

Before the impact shield was activated, the Steel Wings were only a level 5 army.

But after turning on the impact shield, the steel wings are a pinnacle sixth-level army, and it can even be regarded as a quasi-seventh-level.

The only flaw is that when the shock shield is activated, the steel wings are completely immobile.

"Impossible!" Aderozo in the charge may not be able to see the projection of this dimensional crystal wall, but he can feel the powerful power of the law of protection, but he can't figure out why this ordinary army in front of him can actually hook the power of the law, so he let out an exclamation.

"Impossible!" It was the skeleton far away from the main battlefield who let out this exclamation, but he was not as surprised as Aderozzo, because he had already seen that the change in the steel wings came from the black shield in their hands, and the pride of their own, "Unexpected. Pity...... It's a pity ......"

What this skeleton is sorry for, no one knows.

But Aderozzo knew very well that at this moment he had no way to order the whole army to stop charging and retreating.

Once the cavalry charge begins, it is like sailing against the current, but once it does not continue to advance, it is not retreat, but death.

As a degenerate, Aderozzo desperately needs a victory to prove his worth and abilities, hence the war he is fighting today. And now, the enemy suddenly had something he didn't expect, and although he was horrified, Aderozo still had no thoughts or thoughts of retreating after all.

The charge of the skeleton cavalry became even more ferocious.

Thirty meters.

Ten meters.

In a short distance, it was only a moment for the cavalry in charge.

The next moment, like a waterfall against the current, the skeleton cavalry on the left and right sides slammed into the defense line of the Iron Winged Army, which was projected by the power of the dimensional crystal wall.

Not surprisingly, the cavalry that crashed into the front could not break through the defense line at all.

Not to mention breaking through the defense, it is impossible to even make the lineup of Steel Wings retreat half a step. However, the effect of force is mutual, since you can't successfully break the formation, then the force you exert will naturally be counterattacked. So almost without exception, the skeleton cavalry at the forefront of the charge were all shaken out of the pile of minced flesh one after another, and black blood and stench filled the air.

The only exception is Aderoszo.

Although he led the charge first, he did not die from this charge, but he was still slightly injured, but it was not serious. But the cavalry behind him who was constantly rushing was not so lucky, almost with the charge, at least more than a third of the cavalry were directly buried under this charge, and the remaining two-thirds were already dizzy even if they did not die, and they were unable to continue the charge.

As a result, the camouflage illusion applied to these degenerates could not be sustained.

In front of everyone, the figures of these cavalrymen were soon completely exposed: they were all black armor and black horses, armed with black spears and black knives at their waists, but their facial features were hideous and painful, and their eyes were desperate and unwilling.

"Not skeleton cavalry!"

"It's ...... What the hell! ”

"Could these be the Black Knights?"

"Isn't the Black Knight a regular combat sequence for the army of the undead?"

In the crowd, there were exclamations one after another, and no one expected that these skeleton cavalry who came to attack were actually not skeleton cavalry. And unlike those cavalry enemies in the past, after the failure of these black-armored cavalry charges, only one-third of them died by the countershock, you must know that once the steel wings put down the shock shield, how many cavalry charges will have to die.

This kind of result like this is the first time in this life, but soon everyone reacted again, the combat effectiveness of this cavalry unit is very strong, and it can be like this with the steel wings that have opened the impact shield, and the strength level of this army must be at least equal.

Unexpected, really unexpected! (To be continued.) )
