Wizard From Afar - Chapter 1145

When the thunderous cry resounded over the battlefield, the military camp near the river bank at the other end was another scene.

There is no uniform step of soldiers, no curse of knights and officers, no neighing of horses and the noise of wheels passing… The quiet barracks are like a dead city.

The motionless black haired wizard looked at the direction of the battlefield and looked at the horn Castle floating city hovering above the gem river.

After the war began, the few remaining fleets of the Empire would be loaded with kindling agents and alchemy bombs to launch a suicide attack on the ships of the Azores; The following floating city will be responsible for cleaning up, and cover a small warship to cross the sea of fire and deliver it to the outside of eboden, and enter the underpass from the drainage pipe at the sea entrance.

The plan is very simple, almost like suicide. You can guess with your heels that the enemy will ambush… But this is the only way to pass more than 20 people through the battlefield filled with soldiers without being found.

This is a battle that is doomed to be irreversible. The plan does not contain the option of retreat at all – there is no way to formulate a retreat plan without knowing the enemy’s internal deployment. Everything can only be “improvised” according to the situation.

In a quarter of an hour, the boat in charge of receiving arrived at the shore. Looking back, the black haired wizard looked at the team already ready behind him. Faces with completely different expressions were really touching.

With the exception of mentor Dalton and master elbird, all the remaining wizards are expressing the same emotion – fear with completely different expressions.

Every recruit on the battlefield will have the most common fear.

To be realistic, this is really inevitable – for almost the vast majority of wizards, war and battle should be something they can’t encounter in their life. Mastering the power of emptiness doesn’t need to kill, let alone kill with a knife.

The three wizard tower elders are slightly better. They can see that they are just a simple physiological reaction; The other four senior tutors have simply fallen into the fear of “frightening themselves”, and colorful death methods are reflected in their pupils.

It’s hard to believe that they can come back alive… Well, maybe even they don’t believe it.

Sighing to himself, the dark haired wizard took a deep breath.

“Although every time I say this, I feel a little late, but…”

“Are you ready?”

“Yes –!!!”

The demon hunters responded with a uniform roar, while the elves and dancers dressed as warriors looked dignified and nodded slightly; The Wizards whose faces became paler and paler also nodded one after another.

This small team formed temporarily finally had an atmosphere that could be called “morale” and “cohesion”.

“Is there anyone else who wants to quit?”

The dark haired wizard spoke faintly again.

This time there was no response. Even the most trembling wizard closed his mouth and clenched his trembling fist to keep calm and avoid crying.

“Good, great.”

Nodding, Loren turned and applauded the crowd behind him: “because it’s too late even if you want to quit, so… Let’s go.”

“Then try to come back alive!”

………………………………

“In the name of survival, the samurai draw their swords to meet the enemy — — — — — –!!!!!!!!!!”

“Long live the saxophone empire for his majesty Brandon II –!!”

The roar of the trembling sky exploded under the dome at the same time, announcing the beginning of the battle of eboden.

Almost at the same time that the horn sounded, countless dazzling lights had ruled the sky above.

The bright lightsaber and transmitter dragging the tail flame, the light column across the sky, the stone gun burning the flame, the iron crossbow and arrow turning into a dark shadow tearing the air, and the tumbling and scattered oil tanks in the sky… Shine ten times brighter than the sun, which makes countless soldiers can’t help lowering their heads and closing their eyes.

The next second is the sound that makes the whole world quiet.

“Boom, boom, boom, boom!”

The golden red sparks and dazzling light burst in the front of the military formations of both sides. The roaring flames and a flash of light column turned the solid earth into a random kneading toy and constantly changed its shape.

The terrible wave is like a sickle of death, sweeping every seemingly indestructible front with the rolling fire and gravel. The earth under your feet has become an uneasy water surface, rolling up the terrible “huge wave” and swallowing up every tenacious soldier.

Human and hell, only in an instant!

There was no room to dodge… The flash across the sky even forced milaxis and the other two dragons to climb higher to avoid, overlooking the battlefield with “light spots” shining under the clouds.

The original tactics of fierce battle with the enemy completely failed. The two sides bravely and angrily stepped into the battlefield. One minute after the explosion, they “tacitly agreed” and hurriedly withdrew into their respective positions. They didn’t dare to take another half step.

Even the most fearless soldiers have no courage to step into this hell when they see their robes “disappear” in the sea of fire one by one.

All tactics, plans, arrangements and preparations are completely burned in this “burning hell”; All the imperialists and Azores could do was throw more death to the enemy and let the enemy die faster than themselves.

A pillar of fire rises from the sky, one after another roaring iron crossbows and arrows tear the hot air, and beams of light shine on the earth… Between the explosion and scream, the roar and the tremor of torn flesh and blood, and in the hot air, the battle array is extinguished one after another.

For this decisive war, the Empire almost spared no expense to invest 25 kyauk lightsabers, 30 dwarf and alchemist strengthened counterweight catapults, nearly 100 torsion heavy catapults using silver helmet Mountain Technology… And the Azores on the other side almost did similar things.

Regardless of the consequences, both sides invested all the capital they could in this fateful war at one time, hoping to weaken the enemy on the opposite side as much as possible before the war… The imperialists and Azores who did not know the consequences of doing so jointly turned the battlefield into a burning purgatory!

They succeeded… In a sense, but also too successful, because they just need to continue “persistence” and don’t have to make direct contact with the enemy. They can send all the enemies to hell by projecting weapons alone.

“… there is no such good thing.”

Staring at the burning battlefield, listening to the little wizard whispering behind the Imperial Knights.

The scene of the fire prison in front of everyone was stunned. This picture was almost unheard of in their life – even the blood skeleton Valley war of the legendary “sage” Brandon I had no description of “the sea of fire falling from the sky”, only the magnificent charge of knights and soldiers.

Many noble knights even felt that the familiar ballads and long poems had become so pale in front of this scene that they could not even describe it at all.

Only the little wizard himself knew that it was impossible to persist in such a heavy rain regardless of consequences and costs.

Only half an hour after the war began, half of the torque crossbows were scrapped – some were blown up, some were malfunctioned due to overuse or misoperation, and most of them were no longer usable;

Ten of the 25 Jiao lightsabers can still be used, not because they have been destroyed or self destroyed, but because there is a serious shortage of wizards who can operate them; Even if all the wizards and apprentices who arrived in the battlefield were gathered together, they were only able to gather up enough hands to operate, not even enough to change shifts;

The only counterweight catapult that has held up to now has changed three shifts of hands, and can barely sustain it, but it can’t last long… It took months to store fuel, stone guns, iron crossbows and arrows… All the materials used up more than one third in less than an hour!

This is because only one-third of the goods are transported up and down, and the remaining two-thirds are still in the warehouse of the military camp – because even Ayn himself didn’t expect to spend so quickly!

Although it looks terrible, it seems to be trying to blow each other to ashes; But in fact, both sides are constantly destroying the enemy’s various defensive measures with projection weapons, especially traps, trenches and horse posts; And set fire to destroy the enemy’s projection weapons.

Except for the first quarter of an hour, the real killing did not cause too many casualties after each other withdrew into the position. Of course, it was impossible

Except for the prototype of Jiao lightsaber made by Isaac himself, the lethality of most projection weapons is very limited, and there are various hidden dangers such as self explosion… Therefore, the real casualties caused by the seemingly powerful and destructive bombardment are far less terrible than they seem.

Even this seemingly frightening momentum is coming to an end – at least with the power of projection weapons, this step is the limit.

Of course, this is just for now. One day, war will change its appearance and devour everything with steel and fire

“A thousand steps, aim at the enemy, straight ahead!”

“The magic array starts, and the last countdown –! Five, four, three, two, one…”

“The launcher starts, and the magic array starts to charge the ‘Jiao lightsaber’!”

“Adjust the angle, the shooter is ready, aim!”

“Ready, all waiting –!”

Looking at the only ten Jiao lightsabers left behind, the little wizard with a tight mouth waved the flag in his hand:

“Boom, boom, boom, boom!”

The rising light column rolled up the rolling heat wave and rushed into the sky, illuminating the whole battlefield.

When the dazzling light dissipated, the reflection in Brandon de sallion’s sight was the same fire red as his pupils.

“Temple, your majesty…”

Edward, the night watchman standing behind Brandon, trembled in his voice – the scale and cruelty of the war he saw were far beyond his imagination:

“Your Majesty, please step back a little. It’s still too close to the battlefield. There’s no sign that the enemy’s projection weapons have completely stopped. In this case, even milassis can’t protect your safety…”

Before he finished, Brandon suddenly turned back and suddenly raised his right index finger to block his face.

“Shh -”

With a playful expression, Brandon looked at his stunned night watchman leader with a cold sweat on his forehead: “relax, Edward, take a deep breath, and then relax.”

“Take a deep breath and smell the fresh smell of burnt earth. Don’t be so nervous… The picture in front of you is just the dessert of the feast, not even the appetizer and soup.”

“If you are counselled at this time, the 100000 troops in front of us can see clearly – so even if a fireball falls directly, I have to pick it up with a smile on my face… Understand?”

The tight lipped night watchman nodded tremblingly and quietly pushed Brandon’s index finger away.

Brandon, with a smile on his face, turned his eyes to the battlefield again, holding his left hand on his back waist tightly with the twinkling of his pupils. Even because of too much force, the muscles began to shake uncontrollably.

It’s a lie to say he’s not afraid… Of course he’s afraid, and he’s even scared to death!

In all wars, Brandon almost always let himself be in the safest place nearby. At least he can win the game “calmly and calmly” after tens of thousands of troops are protected at all levels to ensure absolute safety… It’s the first time he wants to be so afraid of death.

For the sake of victory, for the sake of status… And for the sake of becoming a real Imperial Emperor, he trampled on those who despised him and opposed him ten million times. He could not escape, let alone have any timid behavior.

Only the emperor who stood with the soldiers was able to win the loyalty of the soldiers – from Eckhart I, the great conqueror, to Brandon I, the “sage” who was not very good at war.

Yes, even his father, akhat II, who “knows everything and can do everything”, is no exception.

“Edward.”

“Ah… Yes!”

“Keep the order and let the fleet on the gem River attack immediately.” Brandon said calmly and steadily, but his speed became fast: “don’t leave any backhand, attack the enemy on the whole line and be unprepared!”

“But your highness, our projection weapons haven’t knocked out all the enemies. If we send a fleet now, it may hurt…”

“It’s because they haven’t been defeated, so they must be sent out immediately – otherwise it’s too easy to expose the target when it’s time to meet the enemy. If I go out now, it can be regarded as that I can’t stand loneliness or can’t swallow this tone!”

Brandon opened his eyes, turned his head and glanced at the night watchman: “remember, the first rule of deception is to make the deceived fools think they have taken advantage of them, and they will do as you want; even if you lose the whole fleet, as long as we can send Loren outside the city, it will be our victory, okay?!”

“… yes.”
