Chapter 361 The Source of Despair

"The enemy's cavalry is out."

"Then attack!"

The "Master" among the Paladins received the order, a new round of war drums and horns was launched, and the cavalry from both sides began to enter the battlefield.

Both the Imperial Army and the Paladins chose to place knights on both sides of the array. At this time, the imperial cavalry attacked in three columns and organized into a triangular formation in motion. The Paladins took the squadron of a hundred as a unit and formed two rows of horizontal lines to fight. And the echelon formation of more than a thousand riders formed a large column that made the enemy despair.

The endurance of the war horses was limited. The knights first approached the enemy at a slow pace. When the distance was about 170 meters, the cavalry commander on the side of the team began to blow the trumpet. The paladins raised their lances and clamped their legs. The horse's cadence begins to accelerate to a trot.

The two armies were about to meet, and the melody of the trumpet changed again. Now the horse entered the attack step, charging at the fastest speed, leaving a series of afterimages with its four legs alternately. The song of redemption rang strangely across the battlefield, dominated by a baritone voice and echoed by a chorus of choirs.

It was almost noon, and the sun finally became fierce, making the battlefield continue to heat up.

Paladins do not need other holy weapons to bless them. When charging, their weapons are already overflowing with golden edge. The "master" among the Paladins raises the flag, courage, defense, healing. The mysterious and magnificent brilliance brings incomparable rivaling effect.

Originally, in the horizontal formation, there would be a gap for every five people. Now with the marching charge the formations had spread out, filling the gaps, as they swept over the battlefield like rows of golden tsunami.

The imperial cavalry that fought with them fell into an instant disadvantage. Since the instinct of war horses is to avoid other horses, there are few fierce collisions between cavalry. They compete in riding skills and courage, but the Paladins are better. Their lances easily picked off Imperial cavalry or penetrated the fronts of horses.

The outnumbered and lightly armored Imperial cavalry quickly gave up their charge. They maneuvered to their right and then turned their horses' heads. Although the Empire's cavalry is small in number and uses slender spears, which is disadvantageous in the first confrontation, these Empire guys still have an advantage - the Empire's war horses have always been superior to those of the Holy Kingdom!

Their horses maintained endurance that the Paladins did not possess, and they circled to the left rear of the enemy. Since most of them were right-handed, it was the Imperial cavalry who brandished their spears and thrust towards the left side that the Paladins could not parry and counterattack.

The "Master" among the Paladins once again activated his magic, and the horses around him instantly became excited. After getting rid of fatigue, he instantly made up for the speed gap with the Imperial Cavalry, and pulled away to avoid the attack.

Some of the imperial cavalry's spears successfully attacked the enemy, but a desperate situation emerged. The spears could not break through the paladin's defense blessed by divine magic, and some of the spear heads even broke off. The cavalry decisively discarded their damaged main weapons and took out short muskets from their saddles to shoot. But the projectiles still couldn't break through the defense.

At this point, the imperial cavalry gave up the battle and moved horizontally between the enemy and our lines on the battlefield to harass the kingdom's phalanx. The paladins turned their horses and used lances, heavy hammers and flails to harvest the precious lives of the enemy cavalry.

As a result, there was a chase battle between the two armies' battle lines. The wasteland was filled with dust and smoke, and the horses and men neighed.

I go! Why are you coming here? Rorschach, who was originally eating melons from left to right, found that groups of cavalry were all running towards him. Although their speed was far from the best state when charging, if the mud head was hit by a hoof, it would definitely be shattered.

In order to prevent the handsome face that the main body took the time to create from being trampled to pieces, "Ninja Summer" quickly activated "True Earth Release", [Soil Shaping Technique] to make the dry land under him deform like a swamp, swallowing most of himself The body was left with a head buried among the temporary comrades who died.

Suddenly, a huge airship with gray paint that almost blended into the winter sky appeared without warning, hovering above the battlefield. It blocks the sun and makes people feel the cold of winter again.

A whistle directly drowned out all the hymns and bells. Now Richard and his teacher observed the entire battlefield from a high vantage point.

The chief military mage observed the magnificent cavalry of the church, but he snorted with disdain: "When you have the advantage, if you don't break through the front line, don't attack the artillery positions, and just chase the enemy cavalry, you are just stupid."

"Chief, charging has been completed and everything is normal. The airship engine has entered a non-magic operating state." A mage with a mustache reported to the chief respectfully.

The chief military mage confirmed the battle situation and nodded: "Let's start."

The whistle sounded for the second time, as if the imperial cavalry had received an order. The two teams from the left and right flanks completed the crossover between the battlefield and retreated to the sides, while the chasing queue of the Paladins gathered in the center of the battlefield.

"No!" The commander of the Church Army discovered something strange about the airship. At first he thought the airship was going to drop bombs, so he asked the priest and the ritual team to prepare large-scale defensive magic, but at this time the strange airship did not drop bombs. .

Anyway, it should be knocked down!

"Has the siege engine been assembled?" The Holy Wood Trebuchet, which has a history of more than 400 years and has breached the strongest fortress in the Kingdom of Sand, was originally intended to deal with Andorilla, but now he is trying to knock down the airship.

Since the airship carries extremely heavy equipment and rises slowly from Andorilla, it is not floating very high at this time. However, a priest quickly calculated that the projectile trajectory of the "Holy Hammer" with a boom of 20 meters could not reach the airship.

"Then issue the order to retreat first! Let the Paladins stop the pursuit!" His order was quickly opposed by the leader of the Paladins. He believed that instead of worrying about the mysterious airship, it is better to stick to the attack. As long as he wins, he will only sound the whistle. Will airships still change the tide of battle?

The third whistle blew, and the north wind blew up, faster than any horse, galloping away the heat. Following the biting cold wind, there was a huge magic shock!

A beam of light that cannot be seen directly shoots straight from the bottom of the airship to the ground. It has no power for ordinary people, but the violent fluctuations in magic caused by it are undoubtedly a huge magic tsunami and an irresistible wind of magic for spellcasters and divine benefactors.

All divine spells have become ineffective, all luster has faded, and those holy objects and vessels have been restored to their original appearance, and some have even accelerated into decay. All the horses without the excitement of divine magic stopped, and some even collapsed due to the weight of the Paladin's armor.

Tumeng experienced drastic changes, and the paladins and priests all fell into great panic, because their power was swept away without reservation. For them, this meant that they had become abandoned by God, and they were still on the battlefield!

The imperial artillery, which had been patient, did not give these people any chance to breathe. Under the guidance of the airship, the cannon roared, and the shells roared accurately towards the Paladins, the command post in the rear, and the Paladin reserve positions that were not attacking, mercilessly reaping the mortal flesh at this moment.

The bells became useless, the hymns turned into cries, and the prayers changed from praying for victory to praying for salvation and mercy.

The chief military mage and the mustached mage showed cruel and cheerful smiles, while Richard continued to observe the battlefield silently and carefully.

Rorschach's clone, who was also attacked by the forbidden demon, was buried in the ground and had lost control of his body.
