Chapter 490 Crush, the swan song of the old era!

At noon, on the border of the empire, on the plain about a hundred kilometers away from the Holy City, tens of thousands of fully armed imperial cavalry in silver armor were waiting.

The leader, Cardinal Nix, looked at everyone present and spoke solemnly.

"Everyone, according to the spies' reports, the two cities on the border of the empire have now been captured by wizards. The minions of the evil demon are killing and killing the believers of the Lord. Now they have reached deep into the hinterland of the empire, and are ready to bring pain to the world.

Disaster and death spread across the continent!"

"The end has come! And behind us is the Holy City. You and I have no way to retreat..."

Under Nix's painful words, tens of thousands of cavalrymen couldn't help but show fear on their faces, but Nix's voice soon became louder and louder, ringing in everyone's ears like a loud bell.

"But we don't need to be afraid, panic, or afraid! The great Lord is watching from heaven right now, watching everyone who fights to the death for the empire and the church!"

"Death and faith are the keys to unlocking the kingdom of heaven and allowing the soul to return to peace forever!"

"Shou now, the most devout people of the Lord, the end of the world is not worth fearing. Our sacrifices will be engraved in the long history. In the not too distant future, the Lord will descend from the Kingdom of Heaven to dispel the haze of the end.

Turn the human world into an eternal pure land..."

Knicks' impassioned speech made the knights present forget the panic and fear in their hearts. They all raised their weapons and shouted loudly, venting their inner madness and determination.

"Kill those blasphemers..." "May the great Lord dispel the haze of the doomsday and turn the world into a pure land!" "May the glory of our Lord shine on all things!"

At this moment, everyone abandoned the fear of death. Even though everyone knew that what awaited them would be disastrous defeat and destruction, they did not feel any hesitation.

Because death is not the end of suffering but the stairway to heaven.

In the Lord’s heaven, there will be no pain or aging. The great rivers there will flow with mellow wine. Wheat fields will automatically produce full ears of wheat without having to be cultivated on their own. The branches of every tree will be covered with plump and rich fruits.

Juicy steak... Everyone will live in a magnificent mansion and enjoy endless peace and joy.

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Nix suddenly got off his horse and knelt on the ground with great piety toward the Holy City, kissing the soil under his feet and chanting the name of the Lord.

More and more people spontaneously dismounted from their horses to make the final pilgrimage, praying to the great Lord to protect them and achieve final victory.

Amid the increasingly louder prayers, a ray of milky white light emerged from the direction of the Holy City.

A faint brilliance of divine magic appeared around everyone, and a fanatical emotion gradually occupied everyone's minds. At this moment, they all felt the Lord's gaze, and there was only one thought left in their hearts, which was to use their own power.

The sword in his hand slashes all enemies in front of him who dare to block him, defending the glory of the Lord with his blood and life...

"Praise you, my Lord, your power makes the stars dim!" Nyx responded to the Lord's gift, then stood up, led tens of thousands of cavalry to get on their horses, pointed their swords forward, and raised their arms and shouted

.

"Now...charge!"

"Charge, charge!" Accompanied by roars, tens of thousands of cavalry mobilized their horses at the same time, charging away like a landslide and tsunami.

Just at the end of the horizon, a torrent of steel composed of thousands of armored vehicles has appeared in everyone's field of vision. The wheels rolled over the earth and rocks, raising bursts of dust flying in the sky. Under the ferocious armor, there were machine guns.

, the muzzle of the gun flashed with an icy cold light, and it seemed that it could shoot out a fatal barrage at any time.

Of course, Nix knows that this is a new war weapon developed by the wizard, with powerful protection and offensive capabilities, but he believes that under the power of the Lord, nothing is invincible!

Even if the final outcome is defeat, he will try his best to deal the heaviest blow to the enemy...

The charging cavalry got closer and closer to the advancing steel torrent, and soon they crossed a dangerous distance - two kilometers!

The roar of the artillery was heard first, and hundreds of artillery shells flew into the sky, and then fell from the sky like meteors and fire showers.

"God is with you and me!" Nix raised his sword high and shouted loudly, and the brilliance of divine magic that appeared around everyone immediately gathered together.

The 10,000 God's Punishment Army who had taken the divine grace potion were at the forefront. With a large number of priests and bishops as the core, an exquisite divine magic circle was quietly unfolded.

An invisible magical barrier emerged out of thin air, immediately covering tens of thousands of cavalry brigade. Fierce artillery fire bombarded it, causing ripples. Obvious cracks appeared on it, but they were quickly repaired.

Relying on the blessing of thousands of priests and the magical energy of the bishop, Nix led tens of thousands of cavalry to advance rapidly against the attack of artillery fire, and soon approached the one kilometer range.

At this moment, hundreds of red streams of light flew over from the opponent's array, and the layer of magical protection was riddled with holes in almost an instant.

In the rapidly generated high temperature, the iron ball, which was burned until it was red, deformed and almost melted, quickly passed through the entire array. Whether it was the silver armor on the knights or the radiance of divine magic all around them, they were burned at such terrifying speed and power.

The bottom is as weak as paper.

A God's Punishment Knight in the front row couldn't even see clearly how the stream of light flew towards him, and his whole body and the mount beneath him were beaten into a ball of blood mist and debris...

Scenes like this happened everywhere on the battlefield. There was no pain or howling, because everything happened too fast. In an instant, there were more than a hundred death paths full of flesh and blood in the cavalry array.

The strong smell of blood filled the air, but it made the cavalry team charge forward even more crazily.

However, this was just the beginning. After defeating the magical protection with electromagnetic cannons, the airships were de-invisible and appeared in the high altitude. The bomb bays at the bottom suddenly opened, and projectiles the size of human heads were directed towards them.

The top of his head fell down.

Taking into account the subsequent battlefield cleanup issues, the airship was not loaded with white phosphorus fire, but these projectiles were equally deadly. The huge projectiles exploded again in mid-air, and the internal explosive shells were scattered and covered most of the battlefield.

In the explosion and fire, nearly ten thousand cavalrymen died directly under this round of blows!

The machine guns and gun barrels mounted on the armored vehicles also sounded simultaneously.

Continuous artillery fire, speeding iron pellets, exploding bullets scattered all over the sky, fierce crossfire, countless God's Punishment Knights were blown to pieces every second, falling in rows like wheat.

However, under the influence of powerful magic, they completely forgot about fear and escape. Perhaps only at the moment of death can they break free from this fanatical state.

Seeing his colleagues fall in front of him under the attack of artillery fire, Nix's heart was filled with endless anger. His eyes were red and he shouted: "Charge, charge, end the apocalypse, kill them!"

"Kill, kill them!" "End the apocalypse!" "The Kingdom of Heaven...the Kingdom of Heaven is coming!"

Tens of thousands of God's Punishment Cavalry roared, rushing into the steel torrent composed of armored convoys in front of them, trying to crush them with powerful impact just like they used to attack rebels and evil god believers!

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. After losing about 70% of the 50,000 rapidly charging cavalry, they finally crossed this long road of death, like a sharp knife piercing the torrent of steel.

But they soon discovered how unrealistic their previous fantasy was. The lance blessed with magic struck the armored vehicle at high speed, only making a small dent, and then the huge reaction followed the curve.

The lance bounced back, and immediately there was a scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere, and people and horses turning on their backs.

The priests and bishops mixed in the cavalry regiment also used magic to blast deep dents on these steel lumps, but their effect was limited to this.

With the power of the bishops, if they are in good condition, they can't do anything about a lump of steel, but most of the magical energy in their bodies is used to protect themselves from artillery attacks, and they have no time to pray to obtain the blessing of divine power.

After a while, there was no way to break through the armor's protection.

Only Nix and a few other cardinals could easily blow up the armored vehicle and destroy it. However, such a dazzling presence soon received focus. Dozens of electromagnetic cannons blasted directly over him, blowing him into pieces.

Blood mist.

As for the targets of the attack, except for a few armored vehicles that were hit in the wheels or forced to stall at weak points, they did not even stop. The cold and solid armor was like a moving solid wall, crushing the enemies blocking the road.

It was broken into pieces, leaving only corpses everywhere, and blood gathered into a river and slowly flowed across the battle line.

"Are they crazy? Are they even going to retreat?"

Seeing tens of thousands of imperial legions rushing towards the torrent of steel without fear of life and death, and then being crushed to pieces, they still rushed forward one after another. Raphael and others on the airship, who were observing all this with far-sighted magic, were stunned for a while.

Their scalp is numb, so far they have killed five waves of legions sent by the church to block them.

Each time, the number of people was not too large or too small, probably around 40,000 to 60,000 people.

As for the meaning of dividing the troops, he probably guessed some of them. One of the purposes was to prevent them from using [Skyfall] to kill everyone in one go.

But attacking in batches like this is almost the same as committing suicide!

The church should be very aware of this, but it still sends people over in a steady stream.

"Perhaps they want to use these people to consume our ammunition and magic power reserves to gain some advantages in the subsequent decisive battle." Harrov guessed.

Hundreds of thousands of lives in exchange for war readiness?

The wizards present could not help but frown, feeling a chill rising from the soles of their feet to their hearts.

If this is the case, the madness and ruthlessness of the church will be beyond their imagination, but it has to be said that after six consecutive wars, 70% of the various ammunition they spent a year to reserve has been consumed.

above.

Fortunately, their core combat preparations were not used, and the magic power of the wizards was always maintained at a considerable level. The four legendary wizards including Lynn, Vittorio, Harrov, and Aurora did not take any action at all.

Firstly, this kind of small situation can be solved by the kingdom's army alone, and it can also train new recruits. Secondly, they need to stay in the best condition to deal with possible threats.

According to their information, there are at least three legendary priests in the church, hundreds of cardinals, countless bishops, and priests. In addition, there is a false god whose strength is unknown, and his strength is actually much stronger than them.

"It's also possible that these legions are pawns thrown by the church to delay our progress." Linn speculated thoughtfully.

But this is obviously meaningless. Under the torrent of thousands of armors, these imperial legions who are here to die can't even stop their advance.

The longest stay was when seven cardinals led tens of thousands of people to stay in a mountain forest.

As a result, he directly let airships, fighter planes, and artillery bombard for several hours, and then used the armored convoy as the vanguard to drive over and flatten everything.

Six crusade armies, more than 300,000 elite troops, plus the border legions attacking the kingdom from other directions with the intention of letting them divide their forces for rescue, should be all the conventional forces the empire can use!

Lin En stared down at the Imperial Knights who were suffering heavy casualties, facing a group of iron lumps that could not break through their defenses but still making fearless efforts until the last moment of their lives, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

I have to say that the gap between them and the church is very obvious in the research of psionic magic.

Lin En could imagine how such a legion, which was not afraid of death and was composed of divine magicians and divine retribution knights, would bring psychological pressure to the enemy. It was no wonder that the church and the empire were able to rule this continent.

It's a pity that the swan song of the old era ends here...

Just as he was thinking, the battle below quietly came to an end. After suffering one-tenth of the damage to thousands of armored vehicles, all 50,000 imperial cavalry had collapsed.

The entire plain was turned into a slaughterhouse, with burning corpses everywhere, and incomplete armor, weapons, weapons, and armor everywhere.

The torrent of steel has no intention of stopping. There will be dedicated people at the rear to deal with these troubles, and all they need to do is move forward, move forward, and move forward again!

Target Holy City!

Midnight soon fell, and the Kingdom's army, which had been running for several days, finally stopped and prepared to take a rest.

The straight-line distance from the Holy City is now less than sixty kilometers. If we leave our supplies behind and travel lightly, we can set out tomorrow morning and reach the city in a short time.

Proper rest and recovery before a big battle is obviously necessary.

Lin En looked up at the sky. A bright moon hung high in the sky, shining extremely brightly. Every wizard felt the existence of the magic tide.

But he remembered that today was not Sunday...
