Chris's Faith of Fire

Chapter 46 46. The Crossroads of Destiny

"Set up! Hold still!"

The lord's voice ran through the city walls, loud enough for everyone to hear.

The flames of war ignited the dark sky, and there was a burning smell in the air.

Lian pulled out the two swords from her waist and killed one of the demons who rushed up the slope and flew to the door.However, soon a new enemy jumped up in his place, stepping on the corpses of his companions and continuing to attack.

"Archers! Release!"

Following the command of the lord, the archers raised their long bows, and the flaming arrows flew towards the foot of the mountain like meteors.

No, Lena's eyes, which could see things clearly in the dark, saw that most of the enemies were not harmed. It was too shallow.

"Hey, isn't it enough? Pour the oil! Magician is ready! Prepare to cover the attack!"

Obeying the lord's order, the oil barrel was thrown down the hillside by the soldiers. When it hit the monster's body, it broke into pieces. The scattered oil reflected the moonlight and gave off a thin layer of light in the dark night.

"Magician! Attack!"

""Lau! (Tribulation Fire)""

The monsters were ignited, but they still charged forward and fell under the shield of the knight at the front, refusing to die.

Lian helped them cut down several difficult orcs and trolls. After seeing the bravery of the mercenaries, the knights naturally refused to lag behind, and courage became their driving force.

Good, the damage was done, the quality of the fighters was very high and they didn't panic because of these things.

As long as morale does not drop, there is a chance to hold on.

"Be careful! There are demons in the sky too!"

The lord shouted loudly, and people looked towards the sky. There were several demons flying in the distance where arrows could not hit. When the archers lowered their bows, they saw the right time and swooped over.

"Hey! Don't relax! We just lost a few people!"

"Three! Your Excellency. One of them is a magician..."

"What! Damn it, we can't lose any more people, everyone! Target that guy!"

After relaxing their support on the ground, the knights guarding the gate were a little unable to hold on.

The number of rushing objects is increasing.

Lian slashed down an orc with his sword, then turned around and slit the throat of the goblin who got through the gap in the crowd.

Not yet, there are too many.Not only that, but even the intensity was completely different from what had been encountered before.

"Ah! Ogre!"

Hearing the cry of an unknown soldier, everyone trembled instinctively.

His eyes were focused on the monster that was attacking at the front of the monsters like a tank.

It waved the mallet in its hand slightly and hit the ground hard.

"Um!"

"what!"

There was a roar, and vibrations like an earthquake resounded through the battlefield. Dust rose and gravel flew, injuring many soldiers.

The knights on the front line were completely unsteady, and even Lian's movements were probably slowed down for a moment due to the shock.

"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"

At this moment, someone was knocked down by the devil.

The knights of Salamander also had flaws.

"Steady!"

shouted the lord.

No, this guy must be dealt with first.

Ren put away the short sword and held both hands on the hilt of the long sword.

Another person was struck by an orc in front of him. It seemed to be one of the knights brought by Princess Chris.

Their abilities are indeed much stronger than ordinary mercenaries, but the disadvantage of heavy armor appears after a while of fighting.

Originally, this was not something that should be equipped for fighting monsters.

Ren passed through the thick wall formed by the warriors and passed through the monsters like a black shadow.

Even if he dodged the rough broadsword and the heavy hammers of dozens of Kiral, he wouldn't have died if he didn't dodge, but he didn't want to get hurt, so he couldn't be careless in the battle with the monsters.

Approaching the ogre, he swung a giant hammer that was almost half a tree trunk.

Even if you get hit by that thing, you won't be able to bear it, so you must not get hit.

He twisted and jumped, the sword in his hand spinning like a meat grinder.

The ogre wanted to use his giant hammer to block the little one in front of him.

But in an instant, his mallet was cut open in the middle, and the ogre's single eye could still see the golden pupil of the beautiful young man.

As if he didn't know what had just happened, the ogre looked at his empty hands, helpless like a child.

But the blade had no sympathy.

Lian easily jumped over the ogre's head, then flashed...

As he landed on one knee, the ogre fell sideways, crushing some of his companions.

That solved it.

However, the number of archers on the city wall has been reduced by half at this moment.

Lian ran back to the city and shouted to the lord on the wall.

"Leave those heavenly things to me!"

The lord didn't respond, but no one dared question him.

The performance of knocking down the ogre by one man made the soldiers realize that their competitive momentum just now was simply stupid.

This guy is from a completely different dimension than us.

Everyone was silent, just wanting to focus on the enemy in front of them.

"Fami, come with me."

"Huh? Hmm."

This child is Princess Chris's attendant, so try to protect him.

"Come on!"

Lian shouted and ran towards the demons in the northern sky.

It's understandable that the boy hasn't come out of his panic state yet.

Every soldier has experienced the fear of going to the battlefield for the first time, especially when the opponent is a monster.

In this case, the palm of death seems to be caressing his cheek. Lian knows how different humans and monsters are, and the "demons" are more terrifying. He knows better than anyone else...

"Don't think too much about anything now. Solve the current crisis first and pay attention to every spear they throw."

"Um……"

And this boy could still remain calm after hearing about the attack on the royal capital. It seems that his quality is very good. He also has family members in the royal capital.

And where did Haggar go?That guy is probably hiding somewhere.

But as he said, the most important thing now is the enemy in front of him.

"Demon God Sword."

He gently called out the name of the move, but he really didn't want to do it.But now that I can't fully grasp the power, I have no choice but to do this.

Several streaks of black sword energy flew out of the sword's edge.

The movement of the gargoyle, which was holding a spear and was about to throw it, completely stopped at that moment.

Lian didn't need to see the target's fate. The blood that exploded like petals already informed him of the opponent's fate, but unfortunately, the monster's blood was inedible.

"What was that just now?"

"My sword skills."

"What does the devil mean..."

"It's just a catchphrase."

"Can you teach me that trick?"

You can't learn it, that's what Lian originally wanted to say.

"I'll teach you after I resolve the current matter... Hey, you should also draw your sword, you must be a man. The little goblin that was dropped by the flying demon over there will be left to you."

"Yes, it is!"

The boy who was originally an enemy of the young man was now full of respect for him, Lian smiled bitterly.Sometimes showing strength is more useful than anything else.

There should only be some miscellaneous fish inside Agat now. It is best to deal with the enemies in the air as soon as possible and run back to help the knights.

Then I’ll chase Princess Chrissy…

She must not die.

Jump onto the house to get a wider view.

What's more important is that no one should be able to see it.

The cloak on his body fluttered in the wind, turning into black wings under the hazy moonlight.

The black wings vibrated as he rose into the sky.

Lian looked around the fortress, and he clearly saw the number of enemies.

It was still relatively small, probably only a few hundred, and only a dozen in the air. It seemed that this was not an offensive operation led by cadres or above.

But the monsters themselves have begun to attack, which is even more terrifying.

Probably not only the portal from Rodcolo Site, but that Beyer also built various portals around it.

Alexia alone controls thousands of fully armed superior dragons and an army of tens of thousands of lizardmen. The monsters can continue to multiply as long as they have energy, and the speed is extremely alarming. Perhaps the current number is even more terrifying.

What's even more frightening is that their individual strength is much higher than that of humans.

So we must quickly deal with the Demon King...

As long as he dies, the demons will be greatly weakened.

Although the goddess Nefera no longer exists in the world, the mana she left behind still protects the ground.

Will I be the one guarding the ground before the goddess and the true people of Nefera awaken?

It's just too heavy.

Okay, it's most important to solve the current task first. It's so nice to be in such a dark night where you can't see anything.

Dark clothing is to protect yourself.

Lian was as relaxed in the air as if he were stepping on flat ground. There was no way he could be targeted by the demons as he climbed at a very fast speed.

"Familiar, little devil!"

Four little guys who were like two-headed versions of demons flying in the sky were summoned.

Seeing them, the demons also laughed.

"Ah, rigardu ke? nano kiom kuragis granda kreinto. (Devil's words: Look at those dwarfs? How dare they challenge the greatest creation.)"

"Mortigante min! fratoj rigardu tiujn adorable forko. (It makes me laugh so hard, bro! Look at their cute little forks.)"

After hearing this, Lian shook her head helplessly.

"Domage malforta. Fakte mi ne povas vidi Taksado. (It's so sad that we can't notice the difference between each other's levels.)"

"homaro? kial kompreni lingvo. (Human? Why do you know this language?)"

The demons were startled. They didn't know why the young man in front of them understood their language.
