Throne of the North.

Chapter 68 Demon Giant and Artifact Heroic Spirit

"This person... actually has such an extremely powerful army."

The wizard's face turned red when he came back to his senses. He was so frightened, not only afraid of the monsters, but also afraid of the human soldiers.

"How does he have so much food to feed this army?"

The wizard was somewhat shocked by the strength of the cavalry, but at the same time he was deeply curious. You know, slaves already eat a lot, and a soldier with the physique of an apprentice knight would consume a lot of food every day.

Of course, he couldn't get an answer for the time being. Under the city wall, Brand's armor was stained with countless blood, and the momentum of the entire cavalry army behind him was also becoming unusual.

Any elite soldier has fought his way out of blood and fire. The reason why Ryan asked all his soldiers to come to the Crucible City was that he needed the strength of the army and most of his soldiers had never experienced war.

They were only recruits, including Brand, who before this war was just a strong individual and a strong warrior.

But as the war progressed and countless decisions came out of his mouth, he was gradually transforming from a soldier into an excellent general.

Brand roared loudly as waves of evil energy filled his chest, expelling the accumulated evil energy from his body, allowing the fighting spirit to flow throughout his body, and his muscles were no longer sore.

"kill!"

Reining their horses, the cavalry army charged forward once again, looking at the chaotic abyss monsters.

……

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Urtado looked at the cavalry army that had once again pierced his army and roared in complete frustration.

He looked at the people around him, his blood-red eyes gradually becoming crazy, but the little rationality in his heart still made him stop using the power of the abyss to transform them into monsters to fight against the cavalry.

He also needs these people to consolidate his authority and rule.

As if sensing the crisis, someone nearby suggested:
"Your Holiness, our army will not be able to enter the city in a short time. Why not summon Lord Frederick?"

He said it with a stiff upper lip, as if the name was also frightening.

"It seems like this is the only way."

Ultado raised the scepter in his hand, and dark light and shadows echoed on the surface of the scepter's gem.

"Honorable Frederick, the demon of the abyss, I call upon you in the name of Dionysus to serve me, destroy the wall before you, and kill the enemies within."

A huge dark portal appeared on the battlefield. Brand stopped his horse, killed the surrounding abyss monsters, and then looked at the dark portal in the distance with a serious look.

I saw a 15-meter-tall red-black giant walking out of the gate. He had two horns like bull horns on his head and four eyes facing forward. He looked at the battlefield in front of him cruelly and ferociously. He seemed to be chewing something in his bloody mouth with dense and sharp teeth, and blood spurted out of his mouth.

The hammer in his hand was stained with countless blood and was also stained black and covered with barbs. Even the hardest metal could not stop its sharpness.

"Devil Giant."

Ryan's expression was solemn. As expected, these cultists who had surrendered to the devil had mastered the power to summon monsters from the abyss.

The lava giant before, and now the demon giant, it seems that the demons behind this cult are determined to take over the dying continent of Exner. A demon giant, let alone other things, just that huge body is not something that ordinary knights can fight against. At least only sky knights can fight against it.

In order to kill such a demon giant, at least several sky knights are needed to work together in harmony, otherwise they will all be killed.

"Fortunately, I expected this."

Ryan took out the crystal given to him by Grand Master Amethyst, his eyes a little fiery.

"How powerful is the power of the artifact?"

He crushed the crystal, and in an instant, a blood-red light shot straight into the sky, broke through the sea of ​​clouds, and then fell deep into the earth of the Mage Academy.

There is a furnace a hundred meters beneath the ground of the Mage Academy, but not many people know that inside the furnace there is a divine weapon, a divine weapon... that belongs to the Spirit of the Stag.

Because the Stag Spirit had fallen, the artifact had lost its function, and the Mage Academy placed it in a furnace, trying to replenish its power, but over the years, it had never succeeded, and even now, the artifact had completely lost its power.

The Amethyst Master gave this thing to Ryan because the power of the artifact had disappeared, and only one last release of the power was left. Moreover, the strength of the release was not even as strong as the power of a forbidden spell she cast.

In addition, in one or two years at most, this artifact will completely lose its last bit of divinity and become a mortal object, making her certain that the Stag Spirit has fallen. As a result, she chose to abandon the artifact and give it to Ryan to use to fight against the devil's power, buying them time to stay away from the Crucible City.

When Ryan got the news about this artifact, he almost jumped up with excitement.

Ryan has always been curious: if Grand Duke Moriarty could escape from the north to the Crucible City in the south, why couldn't the royal family of the Exnel continent do it?

It was when he learned about this artifact that Ryan finally understood.

Exnel did have a kingdom, but the royal family of the kingdom, and every king, were the most devout believers of the Deer Spirit. With the fall of the Deer Spirit, the royal family naturally fell as well.

However, as the most powerful being in the royal family, he will become the spirit of the artifact after death and gain eternal life in disguise. It can also be regarded as a favor from the Deer Spirit to the believers of the Exnel continent.

"Respected Gonçalves, I call on you in the name of the stag, releasing your heroic spirit to fight for me and drive away all my enemies."

Ryan's voice called softly, and below the Mage Academy, a golden light flew out of the earth.

It was a crown that fell in front of Ryan, and then an illusory figure appeared under the crown.

The heroic spirit is the most important power of this artifact, which can make people live a long life and have lasting strength.

Of course, the premise is that the Stag Spirit is still alive.

"Gonsalves, at your service."

The noble king clenched his fists on his chest in front of Ryan and performed a pious ceremony.

Ryan stretched out his finger, and a deer spirit blessing that cost a thousand spiritual powers fell on the head of the heroic spirit. Then this heroic spirit, the former king of the continent of Exnel, turned and flew towards the demon giant.

A big sword appeared in Goncalves' hand. With just a leap, the big sword seemed to cut through the sky and fell down, replacing all the images in Ryan's eyes, until the light faded and the demon giant fell to the ground.
