After the Sun Blood Lions withdrew from Westburg, Kaletta gave up part of its northern territory and established a solid line of defense in the Talist area. With the activeness of the Sun Blood Lions and the Knights of the Dawn, those
The undead were tightly blocked to the north of Kaleta, unable to move any further.
After the initial surprise that the Holy Light could not be used, the soldiers of the Dawn Knights seemed to have gradually adapted to the way of fighting these 'special' undead creatures, and began to discuss with Kaletta's technicians to prepare some special equipment for this war.
Means - In this war that was related to the survival of the kingdom, the soldiers on both sides temporarily put aside their grudges and fought side by side. This was the first time in history that, in addition to the ordinary people of the two countries, soldiers from the two major political powers
comminicate.
Vincent stood on the city wall. It was very rare that he did not charge on the battlefield. Perhaps he knew that if he went down for a while, he might cause more casualties to his own people than those caused by the undead. At this time, he was just as if he had
Looking thoughtfully at the soldiers who were fighting bloody battles, I was filled with emotions - my own Knights of the Dawn and the Sun Blood Lions of Carretta can be said to be mortal enemies. As the armies of two hostile countries, according to common sense, they are fundamental.
We never had the chance to get along with each other in such a "harmonious" way, but we didn't expect that one day we would stand on the same land and fight together.
"What are you thinking about?" A slightly frivolous voice sounded from behind Vincent. Vincent did not look back. He had long been accustomed to a certain girl who liked to appear in a silent way, but looked endlessly into the distance.
The soul of the deceased said with emotion: "Why did Bulayno and Carretta fight? The grudges back then have long been unverifiable... The war over the past century can only bring more hatred and pain to the two countries."
He paused and looked at a place not far under the city wall.
The Paladin tried his best to use the holy light to save people who were like heretics to him. The Kaleta soldiers of the Flame Blood Lion blocked the claws of the undead for the soldiers of the Knights of the Dawn.
Countless scenes like this are staged here.
There is no nationality, only brothers and sisters fighting together; no fighting, only concerted efforts against foreign enemies.
"But you see, both the Blaeno people and the Kaleta people are fighting side by side without any suspicion."
Vincent showed a look of longing and fantasy, which was completely inconsistent with his usual serious look for a long time.
"Perhaps we should be grateful for this disaster. As long as they - our soldiers, people, and the two countries can understand each other and quell this meaningless war... the promise I made back then may be fulfilled.
"Oh? You are so naive..." Victoria walked out of the shadows behind Vincent, spread her hands and shook her head, looking helpless, "Why do you think our two countries are at war?"
"Why..." Vincent stroked his stubble-free chin and said in a low voice, "Because I have also had doubts about this. Is it for the minerals? Is it for the land? But reality tells me, I'm afraid
Now both countries have forgotten the original intention of fighting in the first place. Hatred brings new hatred, so the war will continue."
"Since you know, why do you still have such ignorant thoughts?" Victoria sneered, blew on the mask, and drew circles on Vincent's arm with her index finger, "But you...you led the troops alone to penetrate the enemy.
Aren't you afraid of being surrounded and annihilated by us in the hinterland?"
Vincent heard Victoria's words and said without changing his expression: "I believe that King Carretta is an upright king and would not do such insidious and cunning things. What's more, our Dawn Knights are under the orders of His Majesty the King.
Come to support Carretta, I think it’s impossible for you to do something like this and cut off your own arms, right?”
"Oh~ So you trust us so much?" Victoria chuckled, noncommittally, "Why don't you stay? Anyway, in your opinion, Carretta and Bueno can coexist peacefully, so there is no problem with you staying here.
Bar?"
"No!" Vincent didn't think about it and immediately rejected Victoria's proposal. "My loyalty will only be dedicated to His Majesty the King! Please stop making such jokes, Ms. Victoria."
"Forget it, I don't want to say anything more to you, this piece of wood." Victoria felt bored, turned around and walked off the platform, "See you on the battlefield."
The offensive of the undead is not endless. After several days of defense, the guarding soldiers have grasped the slightest pattern - at least at certain times, these damn monsters will not launch a fierce offensive, or in other words, during this period of time
The number of undead that arrived was not very large. Talister's soldiers took this opportunity to alternately defend and replace their blunted weapons. Especially when many people found that using sharp swords to chop off the opponent's head was very easy to wear and tear, so they started to attack.
Asked to use a blunt object and try to smash the opponent's skull.
Although the holy light of the Knights of the Dawn cannot have any effect on the undead, it is indeed possible to heal the injured Kalreta soldiers. It is precisely because of their existence that the Talist defense line can be impregnable, and Kalreta
The combat effectiveness and war craftsmanship of the tower soldiers also opened the eyes of the soldiers of the Knights of the Dawn.
So far, so good.
"That's..." Vincent suddenly discovered that a dark cloud appeared in the distant sky, and it quickly spread to this side! The sky in Talist was gloomy and terrifying under the dark clouds, as if there was something
Something scary is coming here!
"Archers prepare!!!" Vincent knew that these dark clouds were obviously not naturally formed, and the mastermind behind these undead must be planning something.
The Knights of the Dawn are not a pure cavalry team, but this time in order to rush, Vincent took all the cavalry and some archers to Westburg, and the remaining infantry and the auxiliary priests were led by Frey.
Ya led the way steadily towards Talist. Counting the days, today should be here soon.
"Roar——" A deafening roar resounded over the entire Talist! A giant dragon was seen smashing the dark clouds and rushing straight into the city!
"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow!" Allen, who was commanding on the city wall, immediately shouted loudly, while Vincent on the high platform immediately jumped down and rushed in the direction of the dragon!
Most of the bows and arrows fired by the Sun Blood Lions and the Dawn Knights were bounced off by the hard dragon scales, and only a few broke through the dragon scales and inserted into the dragon's body. But it was obvious that those few arrows had nothing to do with it.
It is like drizzle to this giant dragon that is more than 200 years long. What's more, this giant dragon is actually a skeleton controlled by someone! Although it still retains complete dragon scales and wings,
But the blue soul fire in its eyes proved that it was just a dead thing.
Vincent roared angrily, and jumped onto the roof beside the undead dragon. The sword in his hand burst out with a dazzling holy light! Along with Vincent's rapid slashing, a crescent-shaped air blade flew towards
The location of the undead dragon's head! The most effective way to deal with the undead is to destroy their soul core! Vincent also knows this! But the body of the undead dragon is too hard, and Vincent's slashes only hit the undead dragon.
A sword mark was left on the head, which was far from crushing the skull and hitting the core of the soul.
However, Vincent was not discouraged. The blow just now was too hasty, and Vincent just wanted to divert the undead dragon's attention to himself. As expected, although this blow did not cause any damage to the undead dragon,
Too much damage, but it succeeded in irritating this big guy. The undead dragon immediately dived towards Vincent's position! Vincent immediately charged forward, dodging the undead dragon's blow. The undead dragon's attack
Not only did it smash into the house where Vincent was standing just now, it also slid forward like a bulldozer, smashing all the houses in a straight line into pieces!
The undead dragon raised his head, trying to find the annoying little guy, but because he was too big, he didn't see where Vincent was standing. In order to prevent the undead dragon from turning to attack the city wall, Vincent
Te jumped to the roof again, roared and raised his sword! I saw a huge lightsaber condensed on the top of the undead dragon's head! It slashed downwards!
However, this blow did not break the undead dragon's skull, it only shattered the dragon scales on its body a little. However, the huge lightsaber knocked the undead dragon unconscious for several seconds. Taking this opportunity, the city wall
The arrows rained down again. This time, these arrows were tied with small medicine jars. When they hit the undead dragon's body, these medicine jars exploded! The green liquid instantly spread all over the undead dragon's body! The undead dragon was miserable.
He screamed and shook his body rapidly, only to see that the flying liquid actually corroded the surrounding houses into huge holes! However, only a small part of the dragon scales on the undead dragon's body was dissolved!
The undead dragon realized that the city wall was its biggest threat, so it immediately turned around and rushed towards the city wall! Even if Vincent attacked it again, he only resisted and did not continue to pursue Vincent.
At this moment, a vigorous figure suddenly jumped out from the middle of the house on the side! It landed accurately on the head of the undead dragon! It was Victoria, the captain of the Kaletta assassination force Shadow Fang! He found that there was another trouble on his head.
The undead dragon immediately began to shake its head, trying to throw the little thing down.
Victoria desperately grabbed the undead dragon's head to prevent herself from falling. It was obviously her first time to challenge such a behemoth. She was inexperienced and made a reckless move. She could only rely on the stupidest method to stabilize herself, but the huge
The centrifugal force and dizziness generated by the swing of her head made her almost be thrown away! Vincent also noticed Victoria's situation, and he raised the sword again! A holy light was derived from the sword, and this light cut through the dark clouds
, several huge lightsabers fell from the sky like divine punishment!
"Judgement!"
Vincent shouted loudly and thrust the sword into the ground in front of him. As he moved, the huge light blade in the sky slammed the undead dragon into the ground like a nail struck by a hammer.
, this huge monster let out a huge wail, and the soul fire burned violently and jumped. This attack was a bit heavier than the damage caused before! However, its few twists caused several light
The blade shattered into tiny specks of light dust! But Victoria also got a chance to breathe. She knew the opportunity was too good to miss, so she immediately got up, pulled out the dagger from her waist, and penetrated deeply into the skull of the undead dragon! The dagger was in the air.
The moment it penetrated the skull of the undead dragon, a scorching flame burst out! Fiercely burning the soul core of the undead dragon! In the flames, the soul core of the undead dragon's head gradually disintegrated and dissipated...
But the undead dragon did not fall! It roared in pain! In an instant, it broke away from this force that was very uncomfortable for it, shook its head suddenly, and threw the unsteady Victoria high into the air! Opening it wide
He opened the huge mouth full of sharp teeth and welcomed Victoria who was about to fall!
Is this the end... Victoria was a little confused. She was not prepared for the coming death. She originally thought that the blow just now was enough to crush the soul core of the undead dragon, but... the soul core located on the head of the undead dragon was fake.
!!Why is this happening?! I am not willing to accept it!
Just when Victoria was about to sink into the dragon's mouth, a figure surrounded by holy light rushed over like a meteor! And then caught Victoria!
In the air, Vincent had no way to avoid the dragon's bite. He only had time to throw Victoria out, and the dragon's mouth closed! But the moment before the dragon's mouth closed, Vincent's body
A circle of pale golden spherical shield appeared around it! However, this shield only lasted for a few seconds before it was bitten into pieces by the undead dragon! Taking advantage of this time, Vincent jumped out of the dragon's mouth! But the arm on his right hand
A large piece of skin and flesh was still taken away by the huge dragon's teeth! Even the arm bones were shattered!
Covering his almost broken right arm, the holy light on Vincent's body surged! The wound on his right arm slowly healed under the illumination of the holy light, but the torn-off flesh could not be stretched back in a short time.
"Vincent! Are you okay?" Victoria quickly helped Vincent who was thrown to the ground. Vincent shook his head and responded in a deep voice: "The core of this dragon's soul is not in its head, so it should be
It's in the chest. I'll find a way to entangle this dragon, and you can pull out the sword..."
"No! You're injured! Get out of here with me quickly!" Victoria had no intention of continuing to fight this undead dragon. The shocking wound on Vincent's right arm made her feel a little guilty.
She seemed to think that the most important thing was for Vincent to retreat and recuperate, rather than to fight head-on with this giant undead that was close to the seventh level!
"No! We can't let this big guy attack the soldiers on the city wall!" Vincent broke away from Victoria's pull and threw out the big shield in his left hand! The heavy shield hit the undead dragon's head hard! The huge
The force caused a large piece of bone to break off the undead dragon's jaw! The bone dragon's attention shifted from the city wall to Vincent again! It roared and rushed towards this side! Victoria had no choice but to duck away, while Vincent fiercely
He jumped up! Switching the sword from his right hand to his left hand, he struck the dragon's wings with a sword in the air!
Because it was aimed at the most vulnerable wing root, Vincent's sword cut off all the bones of the bone dragon's wings! However, the undead dragon seemed to have no reaction to this, and suddenly flicked its tail towards Vincent who was flying in the air.
!
Vincent was whipped away by this tail whip! He felt as if his chest was about to break! Seeing the undead dragon turning towards the city wall after whipping him away, Vincent roared! A ray of holy light condensed into a huge
Light Blade! Fly towards the Undead Dragon!
Because it was difficult to control the accuracy in the air, this blow did not hit the undead dragon's vitals, but it also cut off most of its wings. Now it could not fly even if it wanted to. However, the undead dragon did not want to
Meaning of flying, it turned around and roared towards Vincent, crushing the surrounding houses like a tank and rushing towards Vincent's location!
Vincent, who was knocked away, crashed through the wall of a house and fell into the room. Seeing that the undead dragon was about to hit him, Vincent immediately prayed devoutly. He saw a man wearing heavy armor and holding a hand.
The holy light shadow of the pole hammer appeared behind Vincent. Vincent raised his sword, and the shadow behind him also made the same move! When the dragon smashed the room, it was about to hit him.
In an instant! He slashed forward violently! The big sword left a deep mark on the undead dragon's head, but the giant hammer smashed the undead dragon's head into pieces! The undead dragon, which had lost its head, still rushed forward.
Still alive, but no longer as big of a threat as it was at the beginning.
Because his footing was shattered by the undead dragon, Vincent fell to the ground again, but the undead dragon, which had lost his head, seemed to know where Vincent was and flicked its tail again! Vincent flew as high as a baseball.
! Vincent, who was hit hard on the chest again, couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood, and even the shadow of the Holy Light behind him dissipated.
"May the goddess of light grant you rest and peace!" Suddenly, a huge and strong pillar of holy light penetrated the dark clouds and bombarded the undead dragon! The undead dragon struggled hard under the holy light, but its dragon scales were flakes.
The pieces shattered! The holy light penetrated the cracks and shone into the chest of the undead dragon. The soul core hidden there immediately dissipated and disintegrated after encountering the holy light! The undead dragon, which had lost its core, could no longer move.
For a puddle of real skeletons.
"Vincent!" Vincent who fell to the ground was helped up. Vincent turned his head to look and couldn't help but laugh: "Freya, you are finally here."
Freya's eyes seemed to be filled with tears. She helped Vincent sit down and wanted to treat Vincent, but the holy light in her hands could not be condensed...
"Freya, you have just overdrawn a lot of your strength, go and rest first." A magnetic male voice sounded from behind Vincent. Vincent turned his head and looked, and was stunned: "You are...
Archbishop of Berkeley?!"
"My child, what you need now is to rest." The middle-aged man wearing a white bishop's robe with gold edges stopped Vincent's inquiry. He pressed his right hand on the top of Vincent's head, and a gentle holy light quickly
The healer Vincent was injured in the body, but Vincent noticed that the holy light in Berkeley's hand was also flickering. Apparently, Berkeley and Freya had overdrawn too much when they used magic together.
"Bishop Berkeley, why are you here?" Vincent was a little confused. Logically speaking, a leader of the Holy Light Church like Berkeley would not leave Blake easily.
Freya wiped the tears from her eyes and explained to Vincent: "On my way to support, I met the Archbishop of Berkeley who happened to be coming from Blano. He seems to have some important news to inform you personally... But
We saw the huge undead dragon outside the city. Originally, I wanted to rush over immediately, but the Archbishop of Berkeley proposed that he and my team of priests work together to perform divine magic to assist you. Unexpectedly, although the divine magic was completed,
But you were so seriously injured..."
"No, Archbishop Berkeley's decision is correct. Without your last blow, I'm afraid it would be difficult to knock down the undead dragon quickly." Vincent smiled bitterly and covered his chest with Freya's support.
He reluctantly stood up and said, "Thank you very much for your rescue, but why are you looking for me?"
Berkeley's originally friendly smile suddenly turned a little depressed. He looked around and whispered to Vincent: "His Majesty Bledino IV... was assassinated! It is said that the assassin of His Majesty the King was Ellie.
Princess Thea, His Majesty Bledino V, who has just succeeded to the throne, wants the Knights of the Dawn to withdraw from the territory of Carreta for the sake of safety..."
