Chapter 1631 Embarrassed Imperial Army
It wasn't just Ye Lin who suddenly remembered where Saint Michael had gone. The three converging clergy teams, as well as the Empire's First Legion, were also looking for traces of Michelle.
Michael of the Holy Eye, the leader of the first Dark Crusade, the eternal youthful appearance, the founder of Divine Fist (divine strike)... The various magical legends about him are as numerous and dazzling as the stars in the sky.
.
I thought that when I entered the black earth, I could feel the bright and sacred warm breath of the saint, but this is not the case now. The great saint seems to have disappeared in the black earth.
Many people suddenly panicked and regretted why they didn't follow the cult or Ye Lin shamelessly.
Imperial First Legion
Duke Conard took out an ancient map from his sleeve and unfolded it. As the orthodox inheritance of Perous, the empire naturally had information that ordinary people did not have, including a detailed map of the Aerono region.
Due to the chaos of the entrance space and the order of entry, they were unable to merge with the Holy Order to form a more powerful force. However, there are a small number of Holy Orders supported by some Golden Cathedrals in the army, which are enough to deal with most of them.
Unfavorable situation.
The Golden Cathedral receives generous donations from the empire every month. Bishop Hendrys is also a count of the empire, so the small matter of allowing some clergymen to accompany the army is of course not a big deal.
Of course, this is also a violation of the religious order. Priests are supposed to be absolutely neutral. It’s just that no one has time to criticize now.
There are also some free groups that have also landed near the imperial army. The black earth is really evil and mysterious. They are very creepy and knowledgeable, and they have temporarily joined a faction of the empire.
The eldest prince Fan En galloped his horse and raised his whip, pointing proudly in one direction and saying: "Aile Renault is there. The culprit of the disaster who has been sealed for more than six hundred years must be too old now. As long as he is killed, it will be a great achievement that will shock the world."
, you can be promoted to an official position, have unlimited glory, and leave your name in the history books."
His passionate and inspiring words indeed made a small number of people's eyes light up, secretly clenching their fists, and their blood boiling.
If you expect a mediocre military camp resume, after seven or eight years, you will probably become a small leader, a captain of ten, or a centurion.
If you want to be glorious and high-spirited, you must have courage and opportunity, both of which are indispensable. Barn Bachut and Ye Lin are a very vivid example.
The former is the Earl of the Empire, the leader of the Iron Wolf Knights, and one of the four great swordsmen. After killing the apostle Sirocco, he became majestic and was once the target of countless teenagers to look up to and chase.
Needless to say, the latter already despised the importance of nobility, and even got engaged to the beautiful and noble third princess, which was enviable. It is said that when his temper got worse, he didn't even want to pay attention to His Majesty the Emperor's summons.
Even if Ozma cannot be killed, the huge amount of wealth stored in Airoreno can be squandered for a long time by just taking some. It is not bad to become a rich man.
Ta~ta~... There was a rapid sound of horse hooves, and a group of scout cavalry came running from the front. The leader's face turned pale and anxious, and he shouted loudly: "Defense, line up."
One of the army's regulations is to have faith in the intelligence of the scouts in special emergencies. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and sometimes the commander is not allowed to carefully consider it.
Bang~ clang... bang!
The huge shield hit the black and yellow ground heavily, raising a gust of wind and dust, forming a sharp triangular defensive formation, with cold spears protruding from the shield. The entire process of forming a complete battle formation only took a few minutes, which shows its extremely high quality.
.
In the center of the battle formation, the archers' arrows were coated with ghostly poison. The magic warriors were all wrapped in robes, and there was a faint flow of elements around their bodies. They were confident that even if five times the number of mixed armies rushed towards them, they could still maintain their strength.
Undefeated for a while.
In the direction of Aireno, a cloud of smoke and dust suddenly rolled up, the ground rumbled and shook, as if thousands of troops were galloping, and the gravel on the ground seemed to be beating.
Duke Conard's face was stern. He was born in the military and was unavoidable in his rude words. "Mader, how can you still maintain extremely high physical activity after more than 600 years? Are you not dead? Damn!"
Maybe the pretenders have turned into clay over time... There were many people who had such a lucky idea before entering the black earth, including Duke Conard.
In the billowing smoke and dust, the hideous and terrifying appearance of the disguisers can be vaguely seen after the mutation. Some have bloated bodies, and their hands turn into saw blades, and some have heads that look like a pair of pincers, with sharp claws...
Apart from the "humanoid" feature they still have, they no longer have the appearance that humans should have. It's hard to imagine that they were residents of the Peruvian Empire more than 600 years ago.
No matter whether he is a noble or a celebrity or a civilian soldier, it doesn't matter if he becomes a pretender, he is still ugly and terrifying.
Whoosh!
Some string monsters with spikes on their heads fired their spikes from nearly a hundred meters away, turning into a dense rainstorm and covering the legions heading toward the empire.
This kind of monster had appeared in the Dark Holy War era, and the empire had long expected and prepared for it. The huge shield covered it airtight, and there was a continuous clanging sound.
The magic warriors raised their staffs, recited spells solemnly and silently, summoned a burst of fireballs, wind blades, and ice picks, and rushed them towards the army of pretenders. They were the products of additional projects of the transfer experiment, and gained the ability to control low-level magic.
The magic bombing achieved certain results. A small number of pretenders fell halfway, and were later trampled into bloody mud by other pretenders. It even had a certain impact on the impact formation.
"Hahahaha, you are really brainless and have no discipline at all." A captain laughed loudly, which further boosted the morale of the army.
Soon, an inaudible but seemingly real impact of a large force erupted. The body of the pretender was pierced by spears, pierced into the flesh and bones. The several-meter-high shield wall was unbreakable and solidly defended the disguise.
The torrent of impact.
The foul smell of blood instantly enveloped the Imperial Legion. They seemed not to notice that the smell of blood from the corpses accelerated the erosion of the evil atmosphere of the black earth. Some soldiers began to have blurred vision and their eyes turned red.
The first wave of offensive was quickly resolved, and the corpses of the pretenders were piled on the edge of the defensive position, like pieces of sacks of flesh and blood, piled up into a miserable trench of corpses.
Humann covered his mouth in pain, but still couldn't help bending over the bucket to vomit. His face turned pale, he had difficulty breathing, and he almost fainted.
"A pretender is nothing more than that." The eldest prince snorted coldly when he saw this, and felt a little at ease.
In order to prevent being scratched by pretenders, the soldiers are fully armed to the teeth and covered with light or heavy armor. However, maintaining physical strength will be a huge test.
"The shield formation personnel will be replaced, the scouts will explore again, and the replaced soldiers will be repaired immediately." Duke Conard's thinking was clear and he quickly made a reasonable adjustment strategy.
The blessing of honor and the blessing of guardian badges released by the Holy Knights of the Golden Cathedral can greatly enhance the strength and endurance of the soldiers and improve the durability of the march.
But for no reason, he felt a strong uneasiness in his heart...
In the distance, an even more astonishing group of pretenders stood in a somewhat regular formation behind a man with white beard and hair, wearing an eyepatch, and emitted bursts of strange neighing sounds.
The man was extremely tall and burly, no less powerful than a giant bull-headed beast. The red coat draped around him looked like the fur of a wild beast, and a giant ax in his hand was as broad and heavy as a city gate.
"General Kazan, your dear friend Chief Magician Ozma is about to return. Where are you? Vanguard General Karenin is willing to clean up this treacherous world for you in advance."
Karenin was also Peruvian's general. He often called himself a vanguard general. No matter what kind of cruel battle, he always charged first. At the same time, he was also a staunch supporter and admirer of Kazan.
After Kazan was imprisoned and exiled to the Stru Mountains, Karenin was also implicated as a colleague. He was dismissed from his position and the tendons in his feet were cut off.
It is extremely ironic that the general who always charged bravely at the forefront ended up needing crutches to walk.
Karenin searched hard in the Stru Mountains, and finally found Kazan's body before taking his last breath. His angry and unwilling laughter echoed in the wind and snow.
It is an endless hatred for the empire, but it burns the sky and boils the sea, and it will not be forgotten even if it falls into the underworld.
At the same time, something happened to the empire's legions... Several soldiers trembled all over, foaming at the corners of their mouths, and fell to the ground twitching. Just when their comrades wanted to investigate, they were shouted "danger" by the priests.
, leave quickly”.
Immediately under the horrified gaze of everyone, the bodies of the soldiers who fell to the ground changed rapidly, and the body mutations opened up the light armor on their bodies. They roared and wailed, and their heads suddenly raised with scarlet eyes.
"kill!"
On the other side, Karenin raised his giant ax and struck it hard as if it were the beginning of the world. A deep ravine several feet wide opened on the ground, spreading crazily towards the direction of the imperial army. The sudden change in the terrain caused cracks in the shield formation's defense.
No matter how strong a shield is, once its material has cracks, it will only fall apart sooner or later.
