Volume 7 Mortals and Gods Chapter 810 Doomsday Battle (1...
When the first rays of dawn broke through the darkness of the night, the tents started to move like wild flowers scattered on the central plain.
Countless believers of the Lake Fairy Church emerged from their tents and, under the guidance of the clergy one by one, gathered at the designated location.
Hundreds of tall wooden poles have already been erected on the vast prairie, with flags of various colors flying on the tops of the poles.
Every clergy member of the Fairy of the Lake Church knows by heart how many believers need to stand under each flag, but the believers don't know what they are going to do next.
But because they were pious enough, order on the plains was fairly orderly.
Despite this, when millions of believers were in place, the sky was already bright.
A wooden high platform had already been set up among the believers, and dozens of clergymen in black robes knelt in a circle on the high platform, praying to themselves.
Under the influence of magical power, their prayers became louder and louder, floating down from the high platform and being heard by more and more believers.
Hundreds of clergymen in the audience also knelt down towards the high platform and began to chant prayers. When the believers around them saw this, they also knelt down one after another.
In the blink of an eye, millions of believers chanted hymns in unison throughout the world!
The magic circle that had been set up on the high platform suddenly shone brightly, and seven-colored mist of light gushes out like a fountain. In the overflowing light, Louise, the high priestess of the Lake Fairy, emerged from the magic circle and slowly rose into the sky.
.
At this moment, Louise's whole body was surrounded by rising brilliance, and her style was unparalleled.
Seeing this miraculous scene, the believers prayed even louder, and as if crazy, they touched their foreheads to the ground to express their inner piety.
Therefore, few people noticed that the originally blue sky was gradually turning gray.
The voices of believers praying filled the sky and covered the earth, completely overwhelming the sounds of fighting in the distance.
At first light, the Allied forces stepped out of their military camps and set up battle formations on the central plain.
As if it was a secret agreement, the Holy Empire's army also came out of camp at the same time, and hundreds of thousands of troops spread out in front of the Allied Powers.
As expected by Peter I, standing in the center of the Holy Empire's army were fifty thousand Holy Knights who had removed all disguises!
The Allied Army deployed cavalry on both wings of the battle formation, for the purpose of maneuvering and to monitor the movements of the Holy Empire army at all times to prevent them from splitting up and attacking the millions of believers who were holding a summoning ceremony in the rear.
In the center of the Entente front was the Albrex heavy infantry regiment equipped with giant shields and spears. Behind these heavy infantry, there were more than ten high platforms erected, and the platforms were full of mages.
On a tens-meter-high tower erected overnight behind the Entente battle formation, Peter I, Iros, the Knight King of Batoria, and Marshal Servais all stood on it.
From here, you can overlook the entire battlefield, and you can even see the millions of believers in the darkness behind the battle lines.
And with Iros's eyesight, he could even see Louise's ethereal figure in the sky.
However, Iros was naturally not in a romantic mood at this time. Seeing that everything went smoothly during the summoning ceremony, and there was no unexpected scene of anyone causing trouble, his eyes fell on the battle formation of the Holy Empire again.
As expected, Iros will see many long-lost old friends today.
Sure enough, the group of people slowly climbed onto the high platform located at the back of the Holy Empire's battle formation. There were already two high seats on the high platform, one of which sat the old figure that had long been engraved in the soul of Iros.
Today's pope wears a gorgeous robe, a bright crown on his head, and a ruby scepter in his hand. He will only wear this robe during the most grand ceremonies.
However, the Pope's throne is not placed in the center of the high platform that represents the most revered status. Sitting in the center is a young man with short chestnut hair and a handsome young man who makes people feel pity for him.
What was strange was that his eyes were closed tightly, as if he was indifferent to everything that happened on the battlefield.
As if sensing Iros' gaze, the young man sitting on the throne suddenly smiled, which actually shocked Iros.
At this time, the thunderous sound of war drums and horns brought Iros's mind back to the battlefield. Only he, Peter I, the King of Knights and Marshal Servais were left on the high platform.
The legion commanders of the Albrex Empire and the Batoria Empire did not know when they had stepped down from their high positions to lead their respective armies in battle.
In this decisive battle, the Shire's Jedi Knights and Mage Corps have been handed over to these two famous generals for unified deployment, in order to maximize their combat power.
So Iros, who now has no troops to move, has nothing to do.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry. I have seen the military strength of the Holy Empire. The number of their mages is far insufficient, and the strong ones are evenly matched with us.
Although we are currently at a greater disadvantage in terms of military strength, I believe that with the command of these generals and our overwhelming advantage in the number of mages, we have a great chance of winning even without the help of the Dark Demon."
Marshal Servais's slow and deep voice could clearly reach the ears of Peter I and Iros even in the roaring battlefield.
Peter I looked sternly and nodded. He was sitting on a high seat, holding wine in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, looking down at the entire battlefield.
As the war situation became more intense, Iros realized that he had inadvertently spent too much time on the unusually handsome and strange figure beside the Pope.
At this time, tens of thousands of knights from the Holy Knights have joined the Allied front like a furious wave!
The all-powerful sprint, the flashing spear blades, and the holy knights' resolute faces full of religious fervor, together form a very impactful picture. Just looking at it from a distance makes it difficult to resist that force.
With the overwhelming momentum, are you afraid to face the charge of tens of thousands of holy knights head-on?
However, the soldiers of the Albrex Empire did it!
Under the powerful command, the numerically disadvantaged hoplite regiment of the Albrex Empire was like a long embankment, firmly blocking the violent waves in front of them.
The movements of each group of heavily armored warriors were uniform. They struggled to send the five-meter dragon spear in their hands into the charging Holy Knight's horse. Then they lifted the battle ax at their feet and violently split open the giant
The bodies of the holy knights who are used to being thrown flying and falling from their horses!
The holy knights charged one after another, while the holy knights in the back row threw spears or tomahawks, throwing these weapons that screamed for life into the defense line of the heavily armored warriors!
Cracks quickly appeared on the causeway.
The heavily armored soldiers fell one after another, but they would rather use their bodies to act as a flesh-and-blood barrier blocking the galloping horses than take a step back from the land where they were stationed!
The Holy Knights charging at full speed often knocked away the heavily armored warriors blocking them with roars, and then were thrown off their horses and fell deep into the Allied front lines.
Even if the Entente warriors had not attacked with all their swords, the knight in heavy armor would not have been able to survive such a fall.
The long embankment is trembling, and it looks like it is getting more and more fragile. However, no matter how the tide hits it, it still remains standing!
The battle situation in the center fell into a stalemate for a while, while the situations on the two wings were different.
On the left wing, the knights belonging to the Holy Empire had strong combat capabilities, and relied on their huge numerical superiority to suppress the cavalry of the Albrex Empire. They also began to divide their forces to attack the flanks of the Shirel Empire infantry, forcing them to retreat continuously.
On the right wing, the legion personally commanded by the Knight King of the Batoria Empire defeated the Holy Empire Knight Legion in equal numbers in front.
After suffering huge casualties, the 30,000 light cavalrymen of the Holy Empire finally escaped back to the front line of their own infantry, giving them a chance to take a breather and regroup.
However, the Cyril Empire Legion still performed so poorly as before that it almost couldn't maintain the battle line. Finally, when the Holy Grail Knights of Batoria joined the battlefield, it was able to maintain the battle line and prevent it from collapsing.
Bursts of brilliant light suddenly lit up over the battlefield, and then countless attack magics trailing beautiful trails crossed the sky and landed on the opponent's battle formation.
Then flames, frost, thorns, sand and dust, and even black clouds exuding a strong aura of death appeared one after another on the battlefield. Behind the gorgeous light and shadow, what was concealed was the terrifying killing power!
After each wave of magic offensive, there will be many blank areas in the front lines of both sides, especially in the formation of the Holy Knights, a gap was opened by Mi Qi's magic!
The magic resistance of the holy knights is much stronger than that of ordinary warriors. If this wave of magic falls on other troops, the number of casualties may be doubled.
It is very obvious that, regardless of the quantity or power of magic, the Allied side has the upper hand in this magic attack.
Before the war, spies from the Allied Powers reported that there were more than 200 light mages in the Holy Church who could play a role on the battlefield, and the Holy Empire had about 300 mages in total on the battlefield this time.
In comparison, the Allied Forces mobilized more than 800 magicians!
This is mainly due to the prosperous magic culture of the Xirel Empire, and in the past year, the priesthood of the Lake Fairy Church has also trained enough new magicians.
