The sentries seized the opportunity and suppressed the enemy with a round of rapid fire, buying enough time for the wizards' next attack.
The second round of spell strikes came as expected. This time, the wizards all used offensive secret techniques. Fireballs, lightning and other spells that Lily couldn't name swept past, erupting with deafening roars and screams one after another.
The sound, accompanied by the dazzling flash of light and the smell of burning fat, made the battlefield at this moment resemble a hell. The emperor's heavy armor was quite strong, but did not have enough spell resistance. The enemy troops were struggling in the mud and thorns, but
Unable to change the fate of defeat.
The battle was over, and the Erna people only needed to clear out the remaining enemies and count the results. Lily grinned with satisfaction, planning to wait until the effect of the spell dissipated before trampling a few Imperial soldiers to death.
But what she waited for was a deep voice from the sky that suddenly resounded through the entire forest.
"Get up, warriors of the empire. You should not sleep here. Your mission has not yet been accomplished——"
What the hell is this? At this moment, the victory or defeat has been decided, what's the use of shouting a few words? She looked up at the sky with disdain - there was a man in black robe floating there. He seemed to notice Lily and showed her a
A mocking smile.
Then he raised his hands and chanted loudly. The familiar yet unfamiliar powerful magic made Lily shiver.
That was Ada's divine power, the power of creation, but it was definitely not the power that created her father, Alex.
"In the name of the "Lord of Heaven", I grant you a new life and supreme power. From now on, you will unite under the teachings of the "Lord of Heaven" for the empire, for Edda, and for the world.
And fight—!”
Light emerged from the warriors lying on the ground. It was weak at first, but soon became bright. The dazzling holy light formed one piece, and the warriors reflected in the light quickly turned over and jumped up, holding the sharp steel blade in their hands.
Those weapons that should have been pitch black and cold, now exuded a brilliant holy white light like their armor. They lined up in two rows, held the sharp blades in their hands in front of their chests, took a step forward in an orderly manner, and swung their swords to sweep.
A milky white, substance-like light blade burst out from the blade, roaring through the woods, cutting off the small air roots in its path, carving deep marks on the tree trunks, and then hitting the Elna wizards who could not dodge.
Several screams came from the Elna wizard array. Most of the wizards only suffered minor injuries - the defensive spells on their bodies offset the impact of the light blades. However, there were still several people who were hit by several light blades one after another and were unable to do anything.
There was no need for the body to absorb the extra damage. The most seriously injured person was almost cut off at the waist, and he fell weakly. A large amount of blood and internal organs spread out from the gap in his waist. I am afraid he was already unfortunate.
They could not be allowed to continue attacking. Lily gritted her teeth and pounced on the enemy again from the other side. This time, she was just trying to give the others a chance to escape. The enemy's combat power was much stronger than before, and they might be able to fight again.
It is extremely unwise to revive and continue fighting.
"Issei, or whoever it is, as long as you can hear it!" She yelled in a voice like rolling thunder, "Take the wounded and return to the position immediately. Do you understand!?"
She turned into a hurricane and penetrated the emperor's formation. Her huge body immediately attracted the opponent's attention. Countless white light blades whizzed towards her and blended into her body, bringing a comfortable warmth - this
In line with Lily's prediction, as Ada's 'biological daughter', she would naturally not be harmed by the power of the same origin.
"You are so poor and weak, wait!" She grinned and let out a low laugh, "Can you even scratch the itch a little harder?"
The emperor paid no attention to this. They wordlessly took off the axes hanging from their waists and threw them with their hands.
The cold sharp weapon with extraordinary force penetrated the giant wolf's tough fur, tearing open wounds. The blood dyed the silver hair red, but it ultimately failed to stop her advance. Lily rushed from the other end of the formation.
He came out, turned his head, and saw that the wizards had withdrawn a certain distance, and the sentries were retreating while shooting arrows to cover.
She howled lowly and ran around the forest to intimidate the soldiers who wanted to pursue - or simply attract their attention. It wasn't until the wizards disappeared from sight that she turned around and flicked her tail, like
A ray of silver lightning disappeared into the forest and rushed back along the way it came.
She ran as fast as she could, completely ignoring the fact that her healing wounds would crack. She knew that she had to convey the news to Feist and Shireen Feil as soon as possible, and then they would convey the news to the rest of the people in the forest.
Troops. If the same thing happens on other occasions, the battle order of the Elna people will probably suffer irreparable damage.
This is a power that is enough to change the entire war situation. Perhaps it is also the basis for the empire to dare to launch a war, Lily thinks so.
It took less than an hour from the time she left the hill where Feist and others were, to the time she returned to the same place. She stopped in front of the 'young man', transformed back into the form of a girl with wolf ears, and calmed down the fear caused by running all the way.
Some rapid breathing.
"You're injured." Feist looked at her still bleeding arm, his eyes filled with nervousness and a hint of concern, "Are you okay, Lily?"
"A little skin injury, it's not a problem." She grabbed the man's hand, as if this would give her more confidence, "However, we may be in trouble - the Empire has come up with something... quite nasty.
?”
Shireen Feil and the other commanders came closer one after another. Lily swallowed, looked around at everyone, and briefly described her recent experience and knowledge, "Others are on their way back here. From what we can see, do you want to
Can you avoid the edge for a while?"
"I don't think they have the ability to resurrect endlessly." The wizard leader Issei's face tightened. It was obvious that the news of the failure of the wizard sequence made him very unhappy. "The only question is how much it costs to destroy them."
"Also, how widespread is this ability?" Shireen Feier glanced at everyone with a soft gaze, and finally fell on Lily. "If other soldiers besides the royal guards also have this ability, it will be difficult for us.
Gain the upper hand in battle."
"If we retreat, what will the evacuating civilians of the kingdom do?" Astana, the squadron leader of the Golden Lily Knights, objected, "Protecting the safety of His Majesty and the people, even if it requires sacrifice, is a creed that the Knights must abide by.
.”
Everyone had their own opinions, and for a while no one could convince others. Lily paced back and forth anxiously, but she couldn't think of a good solution either.
