Game of the World Tree

Chapter 667 Elf Mercenaries

Thick clouds blocked the sun, rolling over and over, and the whole world was dark.

The whistling wind was blowing constantly, and the flags that were waving rustled...

An old man wearing a red dress robe and a red bishop's crown was standing on the hillside, looking at the sky with a solemn expression.

In his hand, he was holding a golden sun badge.

That is the symbol of the Eternal Lord.

I saw the old man looking at the dark clouds in the sky, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were getting deeper and deeper, and then he said in a heavy tone:

"The power of evil has obscured the stars, and today's battle... I'm afraid it won't be easy."

As soon as the words fell, accompanied by a loud laugh, a majestic and vicissitudes voice took over the topic:

"Hehe, Lord Nicholas, you are overthinking it. With three times the force and many days of containment, today must be the end of Otto!"

The speaker was a tall middle-aged aristocrat.

He was wearing a shiny knight's armor, blond hair, blue eyes, and a high hooked nose, which made him look a little more stern, and the double lion flags held high by the guards behind him and fluttered in the wind showed that he was identity of.

It is the marshal of the Imperial Crusade Army, Duke Rosen who was reprimanded by the Queen for the Wells family affair some time ago.

The red-clothed old man glanced at Duke Rosen indifferently, and the calm and incomparably deep gaze made the powerful duke unconsciously lower his laughter.

"Your Excellency Duke, don't be careless, have you forgotten the battle of Peach Grove?"

The old man said calmly.

Duke Rosen's face froze slightly.

Peach Grove is a place name at the junction of the western border of the Maple Leaf Territory. A month and a half ago, he once led an army to fight with the border army of Bo Otto, and it can be said that he returned from a big defeat...

That battle was simply a disgrace to the Rosen family.

"It was an accident. I didn't expect Otto to be able to summon the fallen behemoth of war, and I didn't know the descendants of these titans he got from there..."

Duke Rosen gritted his teeth.

After speaking, he narrowed his eyes again:

"However... the biggest loss that day was actually the recruited mercenaries. The main force of my Guard Corps did not suffer any major losses. Now, with the full support of the church, with the participation of the Knights of Judgment, plus I The heavy spear ballistas drawn from various places this month, even if Otto has a behemoth of war, it is definitely not an opponent!"

After he finished speaking, he looked down the hillside, opened his arms, and said with some pride:

"Lord Niklas, looking at such an army, don't you think so?"

And when he finished speaking, he turned around again and said respectfully:

"Of course, the war between the world is resolved by our nobles. If there is a power above the supernatural, Lord Nicholas will also be asked to take action."

The old man nodded slightly, his expression solemn and pious:

"Of course, my lord will not sit idly by and watch innocent lambs devoured by evil..."

Duke Rosen's expression was even more excited, he laughed, looked into the distance and said:

"Then let's end this senseless rebellion together!"

Listening to his determined words, the old man also followed his gaze.

As far as the eye can see, under the hillside, is a boundless army.

After the reorganization, it was an army of 100,000 elites, with the red-clad 3rd Guards Corps as the main force, the recruited mercenary regiments as the vanguard, and the white-clad Eternal Church Judgement Knights as the elite!

In the team, there were rounds of terrifying chariots, each of which was ten meters long.

It was a round-by-round war-heavy spear ballista designed to deal with large monsters.

The flags were constantly fluttering in the army, and the deafening footsteps came slowly as the army marched, like thunder.

Such a huge army can only be deployed on the flat and fertile plains.

I saw the huge imperial army like a huge red torrent, like an open giant net, rushing towards the distance.

On the other side, there is a silver-gray army that seems to be much smaller in number and is clearly at a disadvantage...

That was the army of the Border Ber Otto Organization, one-third the number of the Red Torrent.

They are lining up in a defensive formation, guarding behind the huge, behemoth beasts that look like Beamon.

In the howling wind, the two torrents finally exchanged.

The battle...begins.

The mercenary group serving as the vanguard roared and rushed into the border army. Their discipline was far inferior to that of the regular army, but the years of fighting gave them a significantly higher strength than the ordinary army, and everyone's strength was in the black iron. above the median.

On the frontier side, although the military strength is slightly weak, the neat defensive army formation has weakened the advantage of the imperial army.

When the two sides fought, it was a tragic fight.

The mighty shouts of killing sounded, and every second someone fell, and every second, there were follow-up soldiers rushing forward under the wraps of the army, filling the vacancies of the predecessors.

And suddenly, along with a series of roars, the giant beast on the border side moved.

They beat their chests and rushed into the formation of the Imperial Army. Their unscrupulous movements and their ferocious and terrifying bodies made them look like unstoppable mountains, crushing everything that stood in their way into flesh.

It was not until the sound of breaking the air sounded, and one after another, the huge spears with flames were shot from the Imperial Army, and their madness was ended.

It was the heavy crossbow of the Imperial Army.

The attack of the heavy crossbow was like a signal that the long-range attack had begun.

The longbowmen and the crossbowmen began to projectile, and the mages on both sides also began to grant various buffs to each other's chapters...

For a time, the entire battlefield shone brightly, and was shrouded in gorgeous magical light. While cruel, it also had a different kind of dreaminess.

In a world with supernatural powers, superhumans obviously have stronger staying power than mortals.

Not to mention all kinds of buff magics that are almost plug-in, but also allow warriors to fight back in the case of certain death...

Therefore, the battle is by no means the winner and loser in an instant.

The entire battlefield is like a cruel meat grinder.

Looking at the quagmire-like battle situation, the nobles on the hillside showed satisfied expressions one after another.

As a party with a large number of people, as long as there is no rout and consumption, the final winner must be them.

This is already a good performance on the premise that the rebel side has the behemoth of war.

After all, no matter how strong the heavy crossbow is, it is impossible to easily kill those rough-skinned and thick-skinned big men.

However, Cardinal Nicholas, who was also watching the battle on the hillside, the supreme leader of the Eternal Church and the supervisor of the Imperial Army, raised his eyebrows in surprise as he watched the battle in the distance:

"Which mercenary group is in the southwest? How powerful is the combat power?"

Hearing his slightly surprised question, the nobles all turned their attention to the southwest side of the battlefield.

I saw that the rebel army had completely broken through the line of defense. A group of mercenaries with the same armor as the imperial army, but with incomparable weapons were running around inside the rebel army, almost killing them...

What's more, it seems that there are still twenty or thirty mercenaries entangled in a behemoth of war.

After noticing the red standard armor of the mercenaries and the weapons that were obviously more ornate than those of the surrounding mercenaries, the nobles all had strange expressions.

They subconsciously looked at Duke Rosen at the head, but Duke Rosen's expression was a little gloomy.

"It was a recruited elf mercenary group from the forest of elves."

He said with a somewhat unnatural expression.

"Elves?"

A flash of surprise flashed across Cardinal Nicholas' expression.

He glanced at Duke Rosen, remembering something that had caused a lot of uproar some time ago, and a glimpse of clarity flashed in his eyes.

Then, he asked meaningfully:

"You used the summoning statue of the goddess of life?"

"No, they were not summoned by idols. As servants of my lord, how could we possibly use those things? In fact, they were recruited to join the war before the war started..."

Duke Rosen shook his head.

"Actively accept the call?"

Nichols raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, and their requirements are not high, just provide them with armor..."

Duke Rosen replied.

After speaking, he sneered again:

"Although these elves are very hateful, as cannon fodder... they are indeed suitable. They are the craziest mercenaries I have ever seen."

The cardinal nodded slightly, and his eyes continued to patrol the battlefield. :(/

And when his eyes noticed the other corner of the battlefield, his brows slightly wrinkled again:

"What's going on there?"

The aristocrats followed his gaze again, and saw Cardinal Nicholas indicating that the imperial army was rapidly rout, while a group of soldiers on the rebel side started to rush towards the imperial army like crazy. Massacre in the army formation...

Of course, the number of the imperial army is large, and after the mercenaries and soldiers in the front are killed, someone in the rear will soon make up for it, but even so, the situation where they are almost pressed and beaten by one side is particularly conspicuous on the entire battlefield. It is second only to the elf mercenary group that is going crazy.

It's just that when the nobles saw the "rebels" who were wearing the armor of the rebel army, but the equipment in their hands was gorgeous, their expressions became more eccentric than the other.

They couldn't help looking at Duke Rosen again, and the imperial marshal who commanded the army seemed even more ugly.

"Damn...it seems to be an elf mercenary group too. It seems that Otto has also summoned elf mercenaries... these damn long ears!"

He cursed.

Cardinal Niclas was speechless for a moment.

"Your Excellency Duke Rosen, maybe you should let the elves deal with the elves to reduce our consumption."

he said lightly.

Duke Rosen glanced at the nobles responsible for organizing the mercenaries and arranging the battle positions of the mercenary groups:

"Sir Byer?"

His voice was a little dissatisfied, with a hint of questioning.

And Sir Baier's face turned pale and smiled bitterly:

"No, Lord Duke, Lord Bishop, when these sly long ears are asked to never fight with elves when they are recruited, otherwise they will not participate in the war. Not only that, they said they will accept the response of Uncle Border..."

Nicholas:  …

Duke Rosen:  …

Looking at Duke Rosen's somewhat unsightly expression, Sir Baier said quickly:

"But don't worry, Lord Duke. After this battle, I will definitely call all the elf mercenaries that I can call, and I will never give the rebels another chance."

"Do you want another battle after this battle?"

Duke Rosen glared at him.

Sir Baier touched his nose in embarrassment, then looked solemn:

"No! This battle will wipe out the rebels!"

"It's almost there."

Duke Rosen nodded slightly.

Then, he looked at the battle situation again, and when he saw the growing gap opened by the elf mercenaries in the southwest, his expression flashed slightly:

"it's time."

"Notify the Knights of Guards and the Knights of Judgment, unlock the hidden magic, and charge from the southwest!"

Following Duke Rosen's order, the accompanying mage immediately sent a magical signal toward the sky.

After a while, the sound of hooves like a tsunami began to sound on the battlefield.

Accompanied by the billowing dust, a large group of cavalry troops suddenly appeared on the southwest side of the battlefield. Every cavalryman and the horses under him were fully armored and covered with red cloaks.

It was the Empire's armored heavy cavalry unit. Every cavalry had at least the strength of black iron, and the ratio of silver strength reached an astonishing quarter. Of course... most of them were promoted in the past few years.

The mounts under them are also heterogeneous horses mixed with the blood of monsters, but depending on the strength of the mounts, they are at least Tier 3 or even Tier 4 monsters!

This is the strongest military branch of the Holy Mania Empire, and it is also the trump card of the entire empire sweeping the continent. As far as the Third Army of the Imperial Guards is concerned, there are more than ten thousand people in such armor!

In addition to tens of thousands of armored heavy cavalry, there are also about 3,000 white horse knights.

They are also fully armored, with a faint holy light flashing on their bodies, and they are equipped with shields and knight swords with the symbol of the sun.

That is the Judgment Knights of the Eternal Church. Every Judgment Knight has the strength of silver, and the knight who is the captain has at least reached the upper rank of silver, and there is no lack of powerful existence in the gold rank!

The Knights of Judgment... is the main force of the Eternal Church to eradicate heresy and evil god forces. It seldom participates in secular wars on weekdays, and only after Border Patriarch announced the expulsion of the Eternal Church did the Church use this power.

Although they are not heavy cavalry, each of them has also practiced divine arts while practicing martial arts, which can be regarded as double cultivation. Compared with the trampling effect, it is more terrifying than the heavy knight.

Under the combined bonus, their strength is stronger and more flexible than the heavy cavalry...

This total of 13,000 elite cavalry is the biggest card of Duke Rosen's annihilation of the rebels this time!

Thousands of horses are galloping, and the momentum is monstrous.

I saw that the cavalry troops like a mudslide rushed into the battlefield under the terrified eyes of the rebels, and inserted into the heart of the rebel formation like a sharp blade!

In just a split second, the rebel army that was stalemate with the Imperial Army collapsed immediately...

"Victory..."

Duke Rosen gave a satisfied smile.

However, at this moment, an evil and icy aura suddenly descended on the battlefield.

I saw that among the rolling clouds, a giant hand that covered the sky suddenly stretched out.

The giant hand fell from the sky and patted it towards the imperial army...
