Belief In The Kingdom of God

One month later, when Atis successfully arrived at Cecil City with his army, the city in the original memory had already been turned into a battlefield.

In the wild, large tracts of farmland were burned down, countless villages disappeared without a trace at this time, and all were moved into the city by Nadir and others who had been prepared. Under the city, a corpse lying quietly underneath, with a little bit of crimson and blood, looked a little depressed.

In Attis’s eyes, at this moment, a star is shining above Cecil City, and a little bit of the world is transformed into star essence, suppressed above Cecil City, making the already disadvantaged environment even more apparent. difficult.

Seeing this scene, Artis snorted and moved his mind. Although a much weaker but equally bright star rose slowly here, it joined with Cecil City, and withstood the opponent's original erosion and suppression. .

However, in spite of this, as the two stars collided at close range, the source force began to boil here, stalemate bit by bit, and began to oppose and suppress each other.

Suddenly, Artis only felt his chest tightness, and a sudden surge of pressure made him slightly uncomfortable.

This is just the pressure on the body. And above the real spirit's induction, at this moment, an opposing world force penetrated the blockade and crashed down. But it fell into a disadvantage in the confrontation just now.

"Fortunately, although the personality is not as good as the opponent, it is still at the same level. Therefore, although it is a disadvantage, it will not be completely suppressed by the opponent as before!" Artis touched his chest, feeling The mighty power in the world, silently thinking.

"Kkus, pass the message over, let Nadir let us into the city!"

He looked at the closed gates ahead.

···

On the other side, on the other side of Cecil City, a fierce siege is coming to an end.

King Barritt of Indeley looked at the city wall that was gradually stained with blood in front of him, then looked at the sky, and said: "At this time, let our people take off and take a good rest!"

At this time, a knight outside walked in, saw Barrit, and quickly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, there is the latest news. King Artis of Atishus led the army to arrive, and he has entered the city at this time!"

"It's so fast!" Barritt couldn't help frowning when he heard the news.

Then, he raised his head and looked at the tired soldiers above: "It's a pity! If you give me five more days, this big city can be beaten down, but now it's a lot of trouble."

"How many people did the other party bring!" He said calmly, his eyes gleaming with thought.

Suddenly, the knight was taken aback, and then he reacted: "The exact number of people is unknown, but Gu has observed at least more than 10,000 people, but less than 20,000!"

"Less than 20,000?" Barritt murmured: "Then adding the rest of the city, it's almost 20,000."

Thinking of this, he sneered, with deep tyranny in his eyes: "That's good, I heard that the king of Ya Dixu is also here, this time, I happened to catch them all together and solve it at once!"

"How many of our people are left?"

Hearing his questioning, a nobleman in a formal dress walked quietly around, looked at his burly figure, and silently said: "After your majesty, you ordered the conscription of the major lords to send troops, our strength has been increasing, but Because of the continuous loss of the city, it still barely maintains between 50,000 people!"

"But in terms of military strength, we still have the advantage!"

"So, the number of each other is less than half of ours?" Barritt said, looking at the distant city ahead.

"For now, it's like this!" The knight replied respectfully.

In response, Barry nodded: "What about the other sides? Are there any flaws in it?"

When he said this, the knight looked straight and a little serious: "According to the news from the border, the other party seems to have been prepared for a long time. It has been arranged at the border long ago to tightly block the coalition forces sent by the city-states that surrendered to us! For now! There is no sign of being breached!"

"This bunch of trash!" Barritt sneered.

He raised his head to look forward, and the sharply defined city wall in the distance reflected in his eyes.

"After the rest, send a team of knights to see how the opponent's army is!"

So, as the order was issued, a few hours later, as the evening approached, there was another noise under the wall where the blood stains had dried up.

"Are you going to attack?" Artis said blankly as he watched the knights below, leading the soldiers.

"This time, it should be just a test!" Behind him, a tall majestic man with broken armor said, with blood on his face.

"Nadir, you guarded the city of Cecil and fought with the enemy for half a month. In your opinion, what is the enemy's combat effectiveness?"

Attis turned around and looked at the man.

"Very strong!"

Nadir stepped forward, his expression a little solemn: "During this half month, Cecil City has been sparsely armed, and the opponent has continuously attacked. If your Majesty comes half a month later, maybe he will be captured by the opponent."

"The opponent's knights are powerful and the number is huge. The surrender of a large number of nobles makes his army completely lack of knights. Even ordinary soldiers are carefully selected, and they are even stronger than our carefully trained fighters!"

"It's just that the crossbow arrow is slightly weaker. Compared with the original city-state, the Principality of England has relatively well-made crossbows, but they are far better than us, so it can slightly suppress the opponent."

Regarding this, Artis nodded: "This time, I specially brought a large number of arrows and weapons blessed by various divine arts. When I meet, I should be able to surprise the other party."

Nadir was overjoyed: "In this case, you will be more sure of defending the city!"

For people like Nadir who have used magic weapons, the power of these things is even better. Therefore, I will be happy to hear this news and have confidence in defending the city.

While speaking, the knights below also arranged a good array, holding huge and solid shields in their hands, and seemed to be ready for a long time.

After all, in the first half of the month, the two sides have fought one after another. After suffering, they will naturally take some corresponding measures.

In the past, these measures often have a good effect, can greatly reduce the death and injury, and can move forward.

But this time, on the city wall, Nadir just sneered. After Attis gave him authorization, he slowly commanded the surrounding soldiers to pick up the crossbow. The crossbow and arrows that had been prepared on it were shining, mixed with divine power fluctuations. breath.

"Whoo!"

Finally, with an order, countless crossbow arrows came out quickly, towards the enemy army below.

Suddenly, strange scenes slowly emerged.

A crossbow arrow shot into the huge shield, blocked by the heavy shield, unable to move forward. However, in the next second, the divine power contained in the crossbow arrow suddenly exploded, engulfing a little bit of violent fire element, and suddenly exploded.

With a roar, an explosion sounded, the scene was flooded with fire, burning raging and could not be extinguished.

And then, there was a sound of explosion, which turned the presence into a small sea of ​​fire, repelling a lot of people at a time.

However, although the sea of ​​fire was good, it did not actually burn many people. Most of the people died under the first wave of impact, directly blasting the original solid shield and killing the soldiers inside.

Only a few knights who have awakened fighting spirit can escape the disaster, relying on the strong body that has been strengthened by fighting spirit, although blood and flesh are blurred, they continue to thrust forward.

But at this time, the second wave of crossbow arrows also came.

A little wind suddenly appeared, and a little wind element was gradually rippling, carrying arrows of divine power, slamming down quickly.

Suddenly, the knights snorted, and some of them didn't even react. They were pierced into their bodies by an arrow and killed directly.

"What kind of arrow is this!"

At the back, Barritt's expression changed when he saw the terrifying sight, and he stood up and said in amazement.

With his strength, it is natural to see the anomaly, not only the previous fire, but also the powerful penetrating power that almost depends on the armor to protect against nothing, it is impossible to be an ordinary arrow.

"It seems to be a powerful weapon made by the priest in the north!"

Beside him, a nobleman was also astonished, and then knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, do we still need to send people to test in this situation?"

"No need!" Barritt's voice rang from the side.

He looked at the front, the few soldiers left under the blow, with a pale expression: "In this case, there is no need for temptation!"

"Let the slave press on, and we will attack the city directly!"

He looked at the city wall in front with a cold expression on his face: "Even if the opponent's arrows are powerful, but if there are enough such things and easy to make, why not come out a few days ago?"

"It must be difficult to make, so there are not many reasons. Directly send slaves to attack the city and see if the opponent's arrows are used up first, or my slave is dead first!"

So, following his order, driven by a group of knight supervisors, a large group of slave warriors in simple armor rushed on frantically.

These are different from the former slaves, but the professional war slaves kept in the Principality of England all year round. They are usually madly trained and equipped with simple leather armor and cloth armor for consumption on the battlefield.

With these crazy faces, the blood-stained slave army stepped forward. On the city wall, Nadir's face slowly became serious, and his eyes looked at the opposite side solemnly.
