Cayenne signaled to his legion members with his eyes, and soon dozens of people withdrew from the back of the team and quickly surrounded the direction where the three of us left.
Upon seeing this, Bili and the other three priests quickly used offensive magic to try to stop it, but were blocked by a wall of storm formed by Cayenne. The holy light was torn apart by the fierce cyclone and dissipated, leaving only a little bit of light.
There were even several wind blades shot out as if in counterattack.
Claire swept the sword across, and the wind blades shattered instantly.
"I guess you are Miss Claire. It seems I will have to collect more money when this plan is over."
Cayenne's voice sounded with a hint of amusement.
However, the look on his face was extremely serious, because he knew that he was facing a very powerful opponent.
"No, you don't have that chance, Shim."
Claire said calmly, raising the knight's sword in her hand high. A gorgeous golden magic circle appeared under her feet, covering herself and more than a dozen knights from the monastery.
Shim behind him also understood Claire's voice and tore the golden scripture from his arms. The power of light contained in it was guided by the holy book and turned into light that fell on all the knights, making them seem to be covered with a layer of golden light.
With the blessing of this golden light and the magic circle, a huge and mighty golden lion seemed to condense behind Claire and many other knights.
"charge!"
"Stop them."
Cayenne would naturally not sit still and wait for death. He ordered the Shadow Legion to form a defense in the front and chanted the spell quickly.
Rumde Street.
As the location where the emergency first broke out, traces of fighting and burning can be seen everywhere.
Dozens of royal guards and court mages were left with only thirty or so people holding on. The garrisons stationed in Rumde Street or coming from other streets also suffered heavy casualties under the attack of the Shadow Legion.
More than a dozen mages from the Shadow Legion chanted a linking spell outside a shopping mall at the rear of the battlefield, preparing to inflict heavy damage on the royal team and garrison troops that were still resisting in the distance. Twenty archers ambushed in the shopping mall drew their bows and aimed at the court mages in the distance.
At this critical moment, a figure fell from the sky.
The red sword in his hand drew a graceful arc in the air, leaving a visual impression like dancing fireworks, attracting the surrounding burning flames into the sword, and using the momentum of the fall to cut it down in one fell swoop.
boom--
The ground shattered, and several huge cracks spread forward. Raging flames erupted from them, engulfing the mages and archers of the Shadow Legion. In the blink of an eye, several people were reduced to ashes.
"Oh, I arrived just in time."
Larsi stood up and glanced at the battlefield around him, then swung out his sword casually, and the rain of arrows falling in front of him was torn into pieces by the dense flaming sword shadows.
Just as dozens of Shadow Legion soldiers were preparing to launch a charge not far away, a golden spear was thrown from the direction of the street corner, smashing down with unparalleled momentum, and the explosive impact force immediately broke up their formation.
Isabella, Anna and others were rushing towards us from the corner of the street.
"Peggy, you stay here to protect Sister Anna, and the rest of you follow me."
After Isabella left a word, she jumped up, drew out another knight's spear from behind her, and launched another attack from mid-air towards the position where dozens of soldiers were.
Anna chanted divine spells in the back, and a holy aura spread out, enveloping her own team on the battlefield, including the injured royal guards, court mages, and garrison troops, and a continuous healing halo rose under their feet.
When the remaining royal troops and garrison saw the reinforcements coming, they immediately became energized and launched a counterattack in coordination with Larsi and others.
"Is there anyone helping us?"
Larcy swung his sword, creating a flash of fire that cut off dozens of incoming magic spells, and then he looked in the direction of the shopping mall nearby as if sensing something.
His previous attack only killed a dozen people due to the obstruction of the building. Logically, he should have launched another attack after dodging. However, when he accidentally glanced over, he saw the remaining people being killed by a few blurry shadows.
"Could it be those mysterious people at the mansion?"
Larsi didn't care too much. At a time like this, more manpower means more help. "Isabella, hold these people back. I'll go meet up with Miss Claire and escort Miss An to retreat."
"Well, leave it to us."
Isabella nodded, but saw that the other party did not move, "Cousin, why don't you go over there?"
"That's too late."
Larcy shrugged and looked at several figures that appeared on the ruins of the building in front of the street. One of them was especially a figure who was wearing a silver half-mask and was covered in a black robe. There was a fighting spirit in his eyes that was as fierce as a blaze.
"She's a little weaker than Miss Claire, but she can still be considered a rival."
Chapter 51: Blockage
Emerging from the ruins of the building was another Shadow Legion team that eliminated the garrisons along the way.
Among them was Clarence, who had led the team in the mansion before. When he saw Larsi and others who were conspicuous on the battlefield, he stopped and reminded the black-robed man next to him.
"Lady Olilian, the person opposite is the Fire Emblem Sword Saint of the Constantana Empire - Laercy."
"I understand. Let me handle this person."
The figure called Olilian spoke, her face half covered by silver, so her expression could not be seen. However, from the cold voice and the vague outline of her figure hidden under the black robe, it was possible to identify her as a woman.
She took out two dark blue arc swords from her waist and instructed Clarence, "There is a mark on the princess' body. Leave three teams around the Fourth Avenue area. You lead the others to surround the princess."
"Master Olilian, be careful. This man is very strong. Lival is coming over here to provide support."
After Clarence said this, he decisively led a team to go around from the rear and chased in the direction Olilian said.
Seeing a small group of people leaving, Larsi naturally understood their purpose and gave instructions to the people beside him, "Isabella, go and escort Her Royal Highness, leave Anna and Peggy and some others to follow me."
"receive."
Isabella knew that she could not provide much help on the battlefield here, so she quickly left with her subordinates, leaving only Anna who could play a supporting role and the protection personnel.
"Nina, you stay here to stabilize the situation. I and the others will go to protect the Demon King."
In the mall on Rumde Street, Ed gave orders to Nina and the team of thieves she led.
After Ed and the others left, Nina clenched the two daggers in her hands and fixed her beautiful eyes firmly on Olilian's figure in the distance.
"Second squad, listen up and tie up the enemy's rear."
"Yes, Captain."
Hero-level battles have a great impact on the battle situation. Although Larsi is powerful, there is no guarantee that accidents will not happen. If the opponent is dragged down and a hero-level warrior is involved in the pursuit, then the situation of His Majesty the Demon King will undoubtedly become very dangerous.
This is also the reason why Ed kept Nina.
Olilian sensed a hint of murderous intent and cast a distant glance in the direction of the mall, but quickly retracted her gaze and slashed out with two arc swords to shatter the oncoming flames.
However, the flame was shattered, and the burst of fire pushed her back half a step. The black robe was burned with several holes, revealing her beautiful figure wrapped in light armor, looking a little embarrassed.
"Ma'am, please don't be distracted during the battle. Just consider it as a sign of respect for me."
Laerce raised an eyebrow and chuckled teasingly.
"You're going to die."
Olilian said coldly, the two dark blue arc swords in her hands were wrapped with terrifying lightning snakes, and her body moved and stretched out in an instant, as if she had turned into lightning and attacked Laerci.
"Really? I think your ability is not good enough, ma'am."
Larsi held the long sword in his hand, and flames danced on the sword, constantly gathering the surrounding fire elements. Even the sea of fire that had already spread over a quarter of the street absorbed most of the flame waves and merged into the giant flaming sword shadow that was slashed out the next moment.
Just as the battle between Laerce and Olilian broke out, Anna and Isabella's men, Nina and other members of the Thieves' Department, the Shadow Legion, the Royal Guards, the Court Mages, and the Garrison all took action at the same time.
The silent battlefield was stirred up again.
The headquarters of the Third Army.
Because of Austin's order, after a riot broke out in the parade district, Legion Commander Xiro immediately organized the troops in the garrison on the pretext of maintaining order for the coronation ceremony, intending to control the target area in the East City District together with the garrison.
However, just as the Third Legion was about to send out four battalions that had been ready for training.
When Legion Commander Xi Luo was preparing to lead his team to set off, two uninvited guests suddenly appeared in the base.
A petite blue-haired girl and a valiant and beautiful lady blocked the two main exits of the base.
"This is a military stronghold. Anyone who is outside the area must leave immediately!"
The captain of the legion guarding the entrance saw a figure appearing in front of him and moving towards the interior of the base, and he shouted loudly. Dozens of legionnaires nearby also took a guarded posture, drew their weapons and slowly approached the figure with bad intentions.
However, what greeted them were several blood-red shadows fluttering towards them.
These blood eagles knocked down several legionnaires in the front, pounced on them, tore off their flesh and blood and swallowed them. The legionnaires nearby wanted to attack and rescue their companions, but instead attracted the hatred of the blood eagles and became the next victims with screams.
Seeing that something was wrong, the legion captain immediately sounded the alarm.
However, there was an alarm that sounded earlier than his.
"Damn, what kind of monster is that."
The Third Legion Commander, Xi Luo, looked at the petite blue-haired girl in the distance with his eyes widened.
The reason is that a large area around the opponent's position is frozen, including not only the ground but also the buildings, walls and even their long-range attack methods from arrows to various magic. It is like being trapped in the Ice Age. The moment you step in, all the temperature is evaporated and frozen in mid-air.
As long as the soldiers of the legion get within a few yards of that area, they can feel the biting cold, and their bodies will gradually be covered with white frost. If they move forward, their predecessors who have already turned into ice sculptures are the best examples.
The huge cannons and crossbows in the base were able to penetrate the ice barrier with their powerful kinetic energy, but the momentum was greatly weakened and was easily intercepted by the opponent's raised ice wall.
This frost area completely blocked the exit on the west side of the base.
"Gassinia has become stronger again, so I can't fall behind."
Sherlock looked towards the west at the movement, smiled and shrugged.
Behind her, countless blood eagles soared into the sky and swallowed up all the attacks.
The main gate of the East District Garrison Base.
"What's going on outside?"
Carloya frowned deeply as he looked at the wall of fire and sea of fire that almost covered half of the base exit.
"Sir, these flames appeared suddenly. We don't know the details, but it is very likely that the accomplices of the organization that disrupted the coronation procession are hindering us."
How could Carloa, who knew the truth about the coronation procession, agree with this speculation? "The safety of Her Royal Highness is in danger. We must lead the team there immediately."
"We sent people, but even the best team could only get a few steps."
"Let the ice mages in the army take action, and use all the ice scrolls!"
"It's no use. We've tried everything, sir."
"How can it be."
Carloya pushed away the adjutant next to him and took out his staff from his waist. He was an ice mage, and a level 150 elite at that. He had some confidence in his own strength.
However, this confidence was quickly turned into ashes after the released frost was silently swallowed by the flames.
Carloya gritted his teeth and said, "Take the people out from the back."
"Sir, there are also unusual conditions in the back. I sent people to check it out. It seems that someone has created an illusion there. Once you enter, you can't find the exit. People outside look like they are just standing still."
"Damn it, who is behind this!"
Chapter 52: Alons White Court
Canallan, Alons White Court.
A grand and huge building stood at the junction of the Royal City and the North City, forming a semi-arc shape like an embrace, encompassing most of the Victory Square. The surrounding pillars were more than 20 yards high, with various sculptures standing on both sides, and the aisles of the open-air corridors were covered with flower beds and planted with various plants.
The flags flying high on the walls of the building that look like city gates and the magnificent statue of the goddess all symbolize the prominent position of Alons White Court in Levis politics, which is indeed the case.
Whenever the royal family of Levis promulgated important laws, or held special celebrations and ceremonies, they would use this building to announce it to the outside world. In particular, the prominent oath-taking platform just above the White Court of Alons was where every king of Levis was crowned by the bishop of the church.
At this moment, the entire Victory Square was occupied by people of all kinds, and there was a steady stream of people pouring in from the entrance. Rows of garrisons were maintaining order on the scene. Only a wide road was left in the middle, with Roman-style white stone columns on both sides and a red carpet leading to the main entrance.
In the small hall above the White Court of Alons, many important officials in Levis gathered and sat in their seats.
These people naturally included Prince Austin, Prime Minister Enros, and Bishop Anthony of the Church of Light in Levis, as well as members of the two imperial delegations, who sat in relatively remote positions because of their special identities.
The arrangement of seats vaguely showed the division of factions. For example, Prince Austin's confidants and faction officials gathered on one side close to him. Enros was similar, but there were fewer people in the prince's faction. In order to maintain symmetry and achieve a solemn effect, officials from neutral factions filled the gap between the two.
While Prince Austin was talking to Bishop Anthony, he glanced at the members of the two delegations in the corner.
He had had his suspicions before, and now that the two delegations had arrived with Enroth, his guess was vaguely confirmed - the two sides might have reached some kind of agreement behind the scenes, and it was related to Enroth.
But even so, it didn't matter. According to the Imperial Convention, these guys should leave tomorrow, and it would not have any impact on his subsequent plans. It was just a pity. If these people were involved in the unrest in the city, he could gain greater benefits in the diplomatic agreement.
Enros sat upright in his original position. Although he was some distance away from the prince, he could still hear the conversation between the two clearly. When he heard Bishop Anthony smilingly praising Prince Austin for finding the princess, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was not blaming Bishop Anthony, who was obviously misled by the covered-up news. He could only blame Austin's power, which had expanded too much.
But everything will be different after today, just wait, Auston.
Everyone in the hall was waiting for the parade to deliver the princess. According to the established plan, this would take about two to three hours, so they occasionally talked to each other and whispered.
