Chapter 141: Battle on the City Wall
The battle began near the city walls of the inner city.
Although the idea of two army's main generals, commanders, or any other level of command coming to duel each other on horseback seems quite abstract in the real world.
However, when personal strength can be raised to a certain transcendent level by magic and profession, it is also an option to let the stronger ones compete with each other first.
So, when they saw old Winston falling from the sky and facing Hiiragi, people on both sides breathed a sigh of relief. There was no longer such a fierce confrontation as before.
On the one hand, they need to give the strong a face and stage to perform, and on the other hand, neither the refugees nor the soldiers defending the city want to die easily.
The soldiers defending the city felt that it was not worth dying for their superiors, but the refugees understood that if their lives lasted one more second, Abes and his men's activities would be smoother. This was the beauty of the concept of existence.
By simply existing, they can contribute far more value than they could ever put together.
Therefore, both sides tacitly stepped back, leaving some space for old Winston and Hiiragi.
Originally, it should be like this.
However, as the hole in the palace opened, the armed forces rushed out and joined the battle without hesitation.
Compared with the soldiers defending the city, their weapons and equipment are more sophisticated and their personnel are also strong in fighting, as can be seen from the fact that the spears have been replaced.
For ordinary people who have not reached the extraordinary level, the gun is of course the king of all weapons.
The long shaft of the spear gives it a longer attack range on the battlefield, allowing it to attack the enemy from a longer distance and avoid close combat with the opponent.
By utilizing actions such as stabbing and prodding, the user can also achieve a certain degree of flexibility and both offense and defense on the battlefield.
And piercing force is indeed a means that can easily cause fatal damage without the protection of armor.
The long pole also allows the user to better control and operate it, and can quickly change the attack direction and angle to launch a variety of attacks on the enemy.
Except in extremely narrow alleys, where the spear would be restrained by the twisting direction, it could play its advantages in most situations.
But for those who have advanced in their profession and entered the realm of transcendence, the spear may not be so practical.
Just like the weapon Abes is using now is a half-hand sword, because the sword is more suitable for his fighting style, and things like using distance can be solved by relying on his own strength and the rage of a barbarian.
All in all, the weapons in the hands of these newcomers to the battlefield were not uniform.
From the exaggerated long-handled swords and huge double hammers to alternative weapons such as flails, all appeared.
They may not be sharp or deadly, but they certainly represent a privilege.
That is their team. They do not need unification, standardization or regulation to raise their lower limit.
This is a privilege, which means that they have enough ability, ability far beyond the upper limit, to be able to arm themselves not in accordance with the regulations.
And their goal was clear, they went straight to old Winston and Hiiragi.
Faced with this enemy that suddenly joined the battle, the refugees and the teams led by Bingnag, Kurgei, and Jiaweiling naturally could not allow them to outnumber them, so they immediately joined in.
Behind the city wall, the guards who had originally been preparing to rest and watch the show had no choice but to join the melee.
However, even so, it is difficult for the battle to reach a climax.
Because the white-hot situation is not a one-sided thing, but a two-sided thing.
Barbarossa can have white-hot intensity, Dunkirk can have white-hot intensity, and Thunderstorm can have white-hot intensity.
But if the person you are facing just sits there, shouting something like no war, no peace, no defense, no death, no surrender, no leaving; something like non-violence and non-cooperation.
So how could a fierce battle be fought against such an opponent?
And this is the situation now.
Although the refugees had not received formal training, their passion and determination allowed them to face the enemy bravely without fear.
The troops led by the few people whom Abes trusted were even more tactful in their advances and retreats.
The defenders, on the other hand, chose to avoid fighting. After all, they finally had a chance to watch the show for a while, but their friendly troops coming out of the palace insisted on joining the battle, which prevented them from watching the show.
With all this going on, who can be happy?
The result was that the early battles became one-sided.
The bear goblin Kurge took the lead, holding a huge axe, charging forward as if he was in an empty space.
Isn't it said that bugbears and hobgoblins are the best alien mercenaries?
Its strength and attributes are far superior to those of humans.
His giant axe was like a whirlwind, with a whistling wind as he swung it, knocking the enemies to the ground.
Later, Anivia also appeared, and along with the rain of arrows that fell, there were also several magic arrows shining with different lights mixed in.
After all, Anivia is a druid, not a magic archer, so naturally she can't do anything like a storm pouring down.
However, because the magical arrows were cleverly arranged by her, new changes occurred.
The compression of the explosion, the addition of fire, and attacks such as ice or acid corrosion.
These cleverly calculated magic arrows successfully created a circled space.
Within such a range, arrows that could have been avoided by simply dodging became dangerous.
This was exactly what Anivia had seen when she and Abes were fighting against that group of mages in the basement of the eastern cemetery.
However, the walls made of different magical elements blocked Abes's activities;
And now, although he was just copying, by blocking the effect of magic arrows, Anivia was able to make his ordinary arrows cause more damage.
After the performance of the bugbear and the druid, the javelin of the gavial seemed not so special.
Gaviling watched the performance of the bugbear and Anivia and secretly admired them. He knew that he could not show weakness in this battle.
Compared with the previous small-scale fights, this time is probably the biggest battle except for capturing the Lizardman supply camp.
As one of the people who had followed Abes in the beginning, he was also responsible for training spearmen and conducting internal supervision. If he could not demonstrate his strength, he would only be looked down upon.
So, Gaviling tightly grasped the spear in his hand, concentrated his mind and gathered his energy, ready to launch a fatal blow at some valuable target.
If I fight against small soldiers, I'm afraid I won't be able to clear the field as quickly as Kurge and Anivia. If I want to prove myself, I have to fight against more powerful characters.
Gaviling's eyes were as fast as lightning. He quickly locked onto a fully armed enemy, waved his hand violently, and the spear shot out at a high speed.
The spear cut through the air, making a whistling sound, and headed straight for the enemy's neck.
However, these enemies coming out of the palace were indeed extraordinary. They did not show any fear, but dodged slowly.
The tip of the spear tore his robe, but the expected scene of blood gushing out did not appear. Instead, it healed quickly.
This guy is definitely someone who has stepped into the realm of transcendence, why is his recovery ability so amazing?
However, Gaviling did not stop his attack. He quickly pulled out another spear and threw it continuously.
This time, the continuous spears pierced the enemy's body like sharp arrows. The opponent finally fell to the ground, his face began to panic, and he hurriedly pulled the spear out of his body. Only then did he calm down a little.
Seeing this, Jiaweiling smiled coldly.
It’s good to be afraid. Being afraid means it’s effective.
His spear throwing skills were so perfect that every throw could be a fatal blow.
At this moment, Gaviling seemed to recall the time when he followed Abes and used a crude wooden spear to catch birds flying in the sky.
With the blessing of that light touch, the Gawi spirit statue turned into a sharpshooter, ruthlessly launching attacks that should have been of slaughtering level.
Soon, as the target that looked like a hedgehog or a porcupine stopped in place, Gaviling also successfully killed an enemy who came out of the palace. It was obvious that he was not of the same type as the soldiers guarding outside.
And at the end, it’s the battle between Hiruzen and old Winston.
Ice and lightning mixed together, and these two powers belonging to each other were fully exerted at this moment with the help of patience and fighting spirit.
Hirayama stared at old Winston, a determined gleam in her eyes.
Before, I chose to escape directly because my stable life was suddenly disrupted and I was very anxious.
And now, she has seen an ancient hero who died thousands of years ago and came back to life, met a genius like Kronos who understood rune sets the moment he was told, and met a nun who materialized magic and structured divine and arcane magic. What else does she have to worry about?
Having witnessed things that could overturn the definitions of gods, magic, and many other things, Bing Nagi, as a person who possesses knowledge and thirsts for knowledge, will definitely not linger in the Mage Tower anymore.
She raised the frost staff in her hand, and the cold air filled the air, with ice and snow flying.
Old Winston smiled grimly, and the lightning in his hand turned black again.
"Okay, okay, whether it's you or the others... no matter how many scum there are, it will be useless."
"You don't think that since I don't even have many fingers left and have been writing books for more than ten years, I can't perform magic anymore, do you?"
Frost and lightning danced wildly in the air, and the duel between Bing Nagi and old Winston was like a magical feast. If you looked at it from the sky, it would probably feel like a firework show that would make your blood boil and show off your unique skills.
As soon as old Winston finished speaking, the lightning in his hand gathered into a long black whip again and lashed towards Bing Nagi.
At the same time, Bing Nagi's figure disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of old Winston in an instant.
Now that the whip has been swung, it can only move far away and cannot get close.
However, the next moment, the whip in old Winston's hand turned into a ball of lightning, as if burning the space.
Bing Nagi did not retreat either. The cold air from the frost staff in her hand condensed into a huge ice spear that broke through the ground and then blasted forward.
The reason for casting spells nearby is that, relying on the control of magic by both parties, attacks that are too far away are very likely to be directly changed by the opponent to use for their own benefit.
At the moment the ice spear was unearthed, you could also see the fluttering mud and dust being frozen in slow motion by snowflakes in an instant.
However, a cunning light flashed in old Winston's eyes. It turned out that he also had a way to teleport.
In fact, as a mage who controls thunder and lightning, it is much more convenient for him to move than for Hyogi to use ice.
Therefore, old Winston was able to move around like a ghost, and every time he appeared, Bing Nagi was unable to defend himself.
Bing Nagi was secretly alert in her heart, she knew that this battle would definitely not be easy.
Finally, old Winston appeared on Bingnagi's side again, but in an instant he threw the thunder ball in his hand to another direction.
As soon as the thunder ball flew out of his hand, it turned into a black lightning and attacked Bing Nagi's neck.
Bing Nagi was shocked. She knew that if she was hit, she would not be able to resist.
But at this moment, some abnormalities suddenly occurred among the soldiers who were originally engaged in a melee.
Then, some small groups of people turned into a united offensive - those guys who came out of the palace actually attacked old Winston in unison?
A trace of surprise flashed across Bing Nagi's eyes. She stared at the soldiers who suddenly joined the battle, her heart full of doubts. These soldiers were obviously here to arrest her, but now they took such a risk to attack old Winston. What was going on?
She looked around and saw that the soldiers seemed to be fighting desperately. They each used their own skills and spells, like an organized and disciplined team, and attacked old Winston frantically in unison.
A glimmer of enlightenment flashed in Bing Nagi's eyes, and she finally understood.
The reason these soldiers took the risk was definitely because they saw old Winston's fatigue and knew that now was the time to deal him the most fatal blow.
This also means that they chose this actively, rather than being controlled.
They may have other purposes, but at least at this moment, their interests are consistent with those of Hyoanagi.
"Great!" Bingnagi gave an inspiring shout, and she quickly joined the soldiers to deal with the struggling old Winston.
A glimmer of surprise flashed in old Winston's eyes. He didn't expect that someone from the royal capital would dare to attack him.
Little Robert is obviously dead, and now he is the one who is truly in charge of all affairs.
But his reaction was also very quick. The black lightning that was originally rushing towards Bingnai was retracted and turned into a black halo that surrounded old Winston.
As the thunderstorm returned to old Winston's body, an even more unimaginable explosion occurred on the spot at the moment the attack fell.
