Chapter 40: The Cruel Battle (2)
Chapter 40 The Cruel Battle (II)
The sound was a man with a hooked nose. He was wearing golden armor. Although the scratches on it made it look a little old, it could not cover up the glorious seal on it. After seeing this sun-like sign, Shu Le said in a low voice: "Mora, the God of Justice... He is a paladin."
In this continent of war and no lack of betrayal and lies, righteous justice seems to be a joke forever. But there is a group of people who hold this justice on their own. They believe in justice and are willing to give everything for justice. The most representative figure among these people is Mora's Paladin.
Mora is the God of Justice, and he represents the most just and strictest hope. Most of the people who believe in such gods are real heroes. By the way, Shule is also Mora's paladin.
The paladin in front of him could engrave the badge of His Majesty he believed in on his armor, which was enough to prove his identity.
"You seem to be biased against us." Lin Xi gave a wizard salute slightly, with the smile on his face carrying the typical qualities that the wizard possesses. They are proud but not arrogant, cool but polite, knowledgeable and good at debate. Unfortunately, this powerful paladin seems to lack experience in communicating with the wizard - or he doesn't take this adventurer mage seriously at all? His eyes swept over and the paladin replied coldly: "Or can I try to believe in a weak and unreputable mage?"
"I'm sorry we don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Master Mage, please return to your post. Your current duty is to fight rather than to use your 'profound' wisdom to point fingers at this war."
"But if this continues, we will lose." Lin Xi said.
Ignoring the paladin who seemed to be about to get angry and the commander who became silent, Lin Xi looked at the scheming watchtower: "What are you relying on? The exhausted soldiers? The adventurer of the rammed crowd? Or the Isma core that is simply unstable? We can suppress the attacks of ogres now, relying on the magic scrolls that are not large, and the magic cannons on the tower. But the scrolls cannot support for an hour, Isma core... Well, I admit that that thing is quite rare, and there is probably only one in the entire Ferente region. But..."
"It is not stable. Now every time you use it to emit a fireball, it is one step closer to the explosion. But when the battle is at its most intense moment, is it possible that we don't use this last killer? You know, the enemy's methods have not been fully utilized. At least I haven't seen any of that insect magic. Are you sure that these ogres' reliance is just a worm magic?"
"Then do you have any way, mage!" The paladin roared loudly, and he couldn't help but insert his two-handed sword into the ground, making a sound.
"Yes." Lin Xi nodded. "These ogres are obviously controlled by the caster profession. The caster is not very far from this fortress. If a group of elite soldiers sneak into the enemy's camp and kill the caster directly..."
There was a firm smile on the mage's face: "Then we can grasp the absolute initiative - at least until the other party's real leader comes."
"Who will?" the commander who had been silent spoke, "I don't have many soldiers to send to you."
"The three of us are naturally obliged to do so. Many adventurers seem to be adding trouble to you. Why don't you send them to us? As long as you make meritorious contributions, I believe many people are willing to act with us."
"But you need someone with enough combat effectiveness to go with you, but with adventurers... I'm afraid the chance of success is slim."
"The paladin next to you may be a good choice."
The mage's words made the commander stunned for a moment, and then the commander looked at the paladin: "What do you think? Simod."
"Sorry, I still can't give an adventurer enough trust." said the paladin. "Especially this adventurer is still a mage... I can't believe him at all. Mages are all cunning creatures, and who knows if he wants to just run away."
"Maybe you can't believe me." Lin Xi shrugged helplessly. It seemed that his terrible charm of only 9 o'clock made this paladin unable to give him too much trust. He glanced at the back of him and pointed: "But you should be able to believe in the paladin who also believes in His Majesty Mora - now, she is my companion."
The paladin's eyes were on Shu Le. Shu Le was stunned for a moment, obviously she didn't expect that the mage would mention her. She thought that as long as she watched the mage speak, she could just wait for the action to come.
The paladin named 'Simod' moved his eyes to Shule. After a long time of silence, the paladin with a trace of blood on his face finally spoke: "For the sake of common belief, I believe in you once, the mage. I hope you can bring us victory, otherwise I will judge you in the name of Your Majesty!"
"You will witness our success with your own eyes." Lin Xi nodded and smiled.
"By the way, Commander, I still need some helmets..." Lin Xi suddenly said, "Practicality is second, mainly because it must be gorgeous enough... Is there any here?"
The commander glanced at Lin Xi with a strange look: "What do you want that thing? Do you want everyone to wear heavy and difficult-to-move helmets to perform their mission?"
"No..." Lin Xi's mouth had a smile, "This is a must for the 'decapitation operation'."
Since we decided to carry out the "beheading operation", then necessary team members are indispensable. There are also many players willing to participate in this beheading operation. In the end, the paladin chose a few that they liked. Of course, this pleasing standard is whether they are strong enough. Therefore, Lid and others who had dealt with Lin Xi and the others several times were also selected into the team. So a team of eighth paladins, four sixth-level soldiers, and seven players took shape. At this time, the sunset was almost set, and at this moment when the sunlight was brightest, the war also reached its first climax.
The city walls in the east were broken, and a large number of ogres rushed toward it. Because that place was too narrow, when the fireballs on the tower were smashed down, these ogres had no place to dodge, and they were killed by the fireballs. Although the situation gradually began to be unfavorable to humans, humans at this time had the highest morale since the war began.
In this case, led by the paladin, this secret squad dived out of the fortress from the west wall, and then the sky became darker and darker, heading towards the place where the ogre shaman was.
