Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1447 1419. Profiteers harm people

In addition to the Ember Knights who were fully equipped for battle, as well as the summoned souls, the other servants and servants in Gaoqiu Castle were unable to sleep tonight.

They do not belong to the establishment of the Knights. According to the rules, they are just friendly assistance provided by Temeria to this "expatriate Knights".

As early as Lan En brought the news, Gaoqiu Fort had implemented a strategy of closing it to the outside world, so these handymen could not go out.

The atmosphere at night was obviously not right now. How could the knights getting ready hide it from the people who also worked and lived in the castle?

So as soon as evening came, the handymen felt the tension in the atmosphere.

Now, there is an indescribable excitement in the midst of anxiety. Looking at the sky-high flames outside the city wall, there are also terrifying battle roars and screams.

The cook in the castle carefully walked out of the house, went to the courtyard inside the castle, and secretly found an observation hole under the city wall to peek out.

The Ember Knight patrolling the city wall just glanced at him, and the two even nodded to each other.

These handymen and servants in the Ember Knights are only those who are recruited nearby to do work. Those who are directly stationed here can basically be regarded as Temeria’s official personnel.

Both sides are already aware of this.

Originally, since we were stationed in other people's territory, it was reasonable to accept a certain degree of supervision from others.

Lan En didn't ask the Ember Knights to do anything to these people before leaving, so the Ember Knights naturally didn't pay much attention to them and just got along with each other as usual.

The cook was lying on the observation hole on the inside of the wall on the first floor of the castle, looking out.

The cook was very excited about this observation, because the observation report alone was enough for him to show his face in front of the king.

Outside is a large group of knights neighing and neighing. Although the siege equipment they made is rough, it is completely strong enough and meets the standards for use in any war.

On the key parts of the equipment, the blue metal is obviously magic-resistant gold, which is to prevent the equipment from being destroyed by possible magic.

But when the cook has just confirmed it through the luster of the metal, that should be the next moment to stop the magic gold!

"bump!!!"

A ball of scorching hot fire that was constantly expanding flew out from the city wall and hit the trebuchet that was blocking the magic gold!

And when the fireball really hit the trebuchet, the cook was surprised to find that it was not a 'fireball', but a large ball of lava!

The spherical lava suddenly explodes after hitting the target!

The thick and thick shiny glue flowed down and accumulated in a large area where the trebuchet was!

The sound of burning wood and the crackling of wood fibers falling apart are endless.

"ah!!!"

"witchcraft!"

The collapsing lava spread over a larger area and instantly enveloped the knights who were originally crowding around the trebuchet to operate it!

But not everyone's armor is capable of stepping on lava without feeling anything.

These people's calves and feet were immediately burned and merged with their boots!

Moreover, those injured tissues were burning and burning normally at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then, the burned flesh and blood became tangled, as if they were trying to grow into another shape that was definitely not human!

[Spell·Chaos Fireball]

This is a technology found in the spell book that Comicus found in the underground space in the mountains when he followed the people from the Deep Church to Irushil.

[Izaris Spell Book], the origin of spells and the birthplace of the Chaos Flame.

The external manifestation of chaotic flames is like exploding magma. But the inner meaning of this flame represents 'vitality'.

Just like Lan En felt from the flames of his own spell.

Izaris in the world of fire, the hometown of the ancient gods - the witches of Izaris.

It was because he wanted to create a flame that could replace the [First Fire], but the experiment went out of control. Then the Chaos Flame was born, and all the lives in Izaris were twisted into weird creatures by this flame.

It is the so-called [Devil] in the world of fire.

[Chaos Flame] is the flame that distorts life.

However, since it has been compiled into a spell book, it means that the once twisted and disorderly [Chaos Flame] should be controlled to some extent.

The spells recorded in the [Izaris Spell Book] no longer create twisted creatures, but rather burn them alive before they are twisted.

This is exactly the new thing Comicus wants to teach Lan En. He is very concerned about his identity as a teacher.

Leonard's [Giant Soul Arrow] and Archbishop Klimt's [Saint's Double-Pronged Spear] are not very powerful in dealing with equipment.

But it is completely enough to clean up the knights responsible for operating the equipment.

The magic and miracles that directly attack the soul made the knights who died around the trebuchet not even see any external injuries, and simply died silently.

When the [Chaos Fireball] was thrown down, the look in the eyes of the cook who looked into the peephole was still confused.

After all, he stayed in Gaoqiu Castle and knew that the witcher had something called an alchemical bomb.

This thing can be used by ordinary people, but it is expensive. If this is some kind of alchemical bomb, it seems reasonable that the magic-blocking metal cannot stop it.

But then, there were giant arrows with blue light, and double-pronged guns with white light and falling angel feathers.

At this time, the cook's eyes stabilized instead, and when he looked at the group of besiegers outside through the peephole, he had a touch of pity for the fools.

Known: The restraint of magic by magic-blocking metal has been confirmed countless times in various forms during the use of more than a hundred years.

Also known: This thing that was smashed from the city wall into the enemy camp must be magic.

So a conclusion was naturally drawn-

"It's really miserable to be cheated by unscrupulous merchants, tut tut."

The cook kept saying something, and from time to time he took a breath of cold air because he saw the damaging effects of spells, soul magic, and miracles.

"The magic-blocking metal on the battlefield dared to buy cheap goods? What's in their mind?"

He tilted his head and spat.

But in his heart, he felt sorry for the group of people outside.

Because he also knew that those who really went to the battlefield must want really good equipment, but unfortunately, the people who were in charge of purchasing were often not the ones who were going to the battlefield.

Therefore, he only felt sorry for these idiots.

In the siege, there were mages in the castle. They took so much magic-blocking gold, and he definitely didn't have a mage around.

Then there was no way to fight.

In the first minute after the war started, even a cook in Gaoqiu Castle had seen the end of this conflict.

"Calm down!" Outside the castle, the knight commander who was commanding the siege shouted loudly, "We are under the protection of the eternal fire! These things can't hurt us!"

In the army formation that was frightened by the attack from the sky, the lava had just dimmed a little from the bright red.

The corpses and the wreckage of the catapult were still in place, but the knight commander shouted like this, and the rest of the people on the periphery just listened.

"Don't be afraid of the witchcraft of mutant monsters! They can't do anything!"

"Just now, the magic block was too far away from those wizards! Push forward! This wall is only more than three meters high! Push the equipment closer!"

"Only those who have no faith will be hurt!"

This statement is in line with the logic of the doctrine of the Eternal Fire. You can be hurt by magic because your heart is not sincere.

In other words, this is in line with the logic of most religious beliefs.

"It seems that," Sirius said to Leonard in a light and ethereal voice like moonlight, "your magic did not cause enough deterrence, and they were lucky."

[Rosaria's ring finger], or now it should be called [Gwynevera's ring finger].

Leonard sneered unhappily and did not respond.

"The magic block can make the warlock uncomfortable and unable to mobilize the chaotic magic, and it can also disrupt the magic composed of pure magic." Instead, Stuart interrupted and explained.

"But it is impossible to weaken or interfere with things that have been created by magic. It's like a stone thrown by magic. Even if the magic disappears, the inertia of the stone is enough to kill people."

"They may have regarded your magic as that kind of thing."

"It's just a useless hope." Sirius said softly, holding the rapier on his waist, "They don't look strong. Open the main door and rush out to dismantle those equipment."

The souls did not refute Sirius's statement.

After all, in the world of fire, any knight who has mastered the [Soul Power] will not be killed by the aftermath of the collapse of the soul giant arrow. At most, the [Soul Power] is exhausted.

But this group of attackers is indeed like this.

The torches whirred in the cold wind. The souls left the three people who had just performed long-range attacks on the top of the city. The remaining Sirius and Hazel followed Maria and prepared to rush down directly out of the city gate.

The ember knights who had been prepared for a long time also frowned at the beginning and immediately followed.

Although defending the city is definitely an advantage, since these strong men called by their masters are willing to lead the charge, they also want to end the battle tonight as soon as possible.

"Wait a minute." Klimt stopped Lincoln who was also preparing to charge, "You haven't used all the summoning symbols drawn by Lan En. It's a good habit to be cautious. Here, use this one now."

Lan En left eight parchments with summoning symbols, but only five souls were summoned now. Lincoln plans to use the other three depending on the situation.

And now, Klimt took one out and handed it to the young clerk.

"This is him. The ones just now are not suitable for frontal charging. I don't know that Ms. Maria, but judging from her equipment, it should be similar to Sirius. This one is just right, let him lead."
