[Third update, I would like to thank Trickster (Azure Emblem sending blessings, seeking recommendation). Trickster is advertising Old D everywhere, doing work that offends people. Old D doesn't know what to say. When the emblem reached six hundred, Trickster is going to rush the League. In the book review section of the emblem, everyone can help. Trickster only asks for a thousand diamonds, then he will rush the League. Just a thousand diamonds, everyone must put in some effort and strive for speed. This month's double monthly votes are about to end. Trickster, Old D feels very warm. At the same time, thank you everyone. Old D knows that everyone will definitely help.]
Gaining three Thunderous Skills greatly boosted Salin's confidence. Facing a powerhouse above level-ten, the most difficult skills to deal with were Domain and Deterrence.
In addition, there were some skills that had nothing to do with magic, but could intimidate people's souls. For example, Sue's swordsmanship was brave and invincible. Zola's swordsmanship contained great power in its sorrow.
Facing such a warrior, a mage might be killed before they could even gather magic.
The Iron Duke's subordinate, Deep Blue, also had a similar skill as Zhenwu. Facing a Zhenwu, a mage below level-nine would probably die as long as they were within fifty meters.
A hundred meters wasn't safe either. Zhenwu's movement speed was much faster than the golden sword saint. But a mage's movement speed was superior in endurance. But no matter how long you could last, you wouldn't be able to last if your head was cut off.
Generally speaking, a mage could only display their advantage by blocking a warrior's attack. Or they could strike first outside the warrior's attack range to gain the upper hand.
So at level-nine, mages had a long lifespan, and they began to practice close-range attack spells. These close-range attack spells were all instant and powerful, and were targeted at warriors.
For example, Salin's Crystal Finger was at level-ten, and its attack range was still around twelve meters. At this distance, no warrior could block the attack of the crystal finger.
Salin himself wasn't afraid of a warrior's attack. He had the Destiny Doll. As long as he blocked one attack, a stab from the crystal finger would end the battle.
And this was when Salin didn't have any other equipment. One had to know that his Star Robe stored twenty-four level-eleven spells. Otherwise, how could he be at ease with only four subordinates? Back then, he didn't have a Puppet Star, and his enemies could rely on numbers to win.
The City of Nature had already caught the attention of the Holy See. A thousand miles away, a crusade army was being formed. Within a radius of a thousand miles, all of the troops belonging to the Tanggulas Empire and the Holy See had been mobilized to form a crusade.
The main forces of the Church had all gone to Daliang City, but Qin Yin still had a large number of troops in the north. Otherwise, all of the previous battles would have been in vain.
This time, the appearance of the God of Nature had not only alarmed the Inquisition that was carrying out a secret mission here. There was also the headquarters of the Vatican in the faraway Tanggulas. Although the Druidic Order had been around for a few months, they were not powerful enough, and the Church did not take them seriously.
After all, the battle in Daliang City was more important. God knew how much wealth was hidden in the Giant's Graveyard. This wealth was enough to determine the situation of the entire continent. The Vatican had even given up on the plan to continue attacking Qin Yin.
However, the appearance of the City of Nature had caused the Curia to be unable to sit still. The Druidic Cult definitely had a huge force supporting them from behind. To think that they were actually faking miracles. This was something that the Curia would definitely not tolerate.
If they did not pay attention to it, perhaps the entire north of Qin Yin would be occupied by the Druidic Order after the battle in Daliang City.
The army that was sent to attack the City of Nature numbered as many as two hundred thousand. Although it was pieced together, there were thirty thousand jailers in it, and the tens of thousands of Blood Knights were not included.
The commander of the army was a Level Ten Mage.
Salin had long received intelligence that this army of two hundred thousand was meaningless to him. Because there was only one Level Ten Mage in charge, it was tantamount to suicide. However, from Jialoulan's side, a seemingly inconspicuous army caught Salin's attention.
It was the Knights of the Divine Kingdom, newly established by the Curia.
The Cardinal Institute had the Holy Knights, and they were well-equipped. However, in the history of the Curia, the most powerful order of knights was the Knights of the Divine Kingdom. Salin had already understood the skills of the Knights of the Divine Kingdom from Winter.
About a hundred Knights of the Divine Kingdom could casually increase the combat power of one of them by a level.
This kind of increase in combat power was very powerful. Without the use of drugs, there would not be any side effects. On the battlefield, a Gold Sword Saint could appear in a small team of knights at any time. This was quite a terrifying thing. The speed at which the Gold Sword Saints killed Mages was not slow either. Otherwise, Salin would not have always had powerful warriors by his side before he reached Level Nine.
At that time, Salin was even more cautious when he encountered the Gold Sword Saints than when he encountered the Dread Angels.
The combat skills of humans were much stronger than those naturally born evil creatures. These creatures mainly relied on instinct, while humans relied on killing techniques that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years.
With Winter presiding over the City of Nature, Salin was very relieved. After the Divine Temple of Nature was pieced together, all the mages in the City of Nature were equivalent to one level higher. Although twenty-four Level Nine Mages could not really advance to Level Ten, defending the city was not a problem.
So Salin instructed Winter to defend to the death and not to attack. Then, he led his four subordinates to Jialoulan to intercept the Knights of the Divine Kingdom.
This army was about thirty thousand people. According to the rules of the Holy Church, each of these thirty thousand Divine Kingdom Knights had at least four servants. The combat power of these servants was at least equivalent to that of an elite professional soldier.
These servants fought fiercely, because if the knights died in battle, they would not survive either. Salin went alone to see how much the skills of the Knights of the Divine Kingdom could affect the war.
If his Star Puppets were unable to deal with this Holy War Army, then the ordinary soldiers were even more hopeless.
The City of Nature was more than eight thousand miles away from the border of Qin Yin. However, Jialoulan had fallen, and the Knights of the Divine Kingdom could advance at full speed within the borders of Jialoulan. When Salin reached the border, the Knights of the Divine Kingdom were about to enter Qin Yin.
An army of about one hundred and fifty thousand people, divided into three groups of fifty thousand people, were crossing the river on the plains of Jialoulan.
It was winter, and the river was frozen, so there was no need to build a bridge. The Knights of the Divine Kingdom were well-equipped, and the soldiers were not afraid of the cold. Tens of thousands of cavalrymen advanced at a uniform speed, with some inferior horses carrying extra equipment in between.
The ice was not thick enough, and it was still somewhat dangerous for fully armed knights to gallop on it. If all the soldiers advanced at the same frequency, it would be more likely to cause a large area of the ice to collapse. These extra inferior horses were to cause the vibration frequency on the ice to be out of sync.
Salin's Elemental Magic Tower flew above the river, and he was a little worried when he saw the Knights of the Divine Kingdom.
Half of the first wave of troops had already crossed the river, and the troops behind were about five miles apart, perfectly coordinated. Salin scanned the armor of all the soldiers with his Elemental Eyes, and found that they were all made with Stone God Fragments.
The armor of these Knights of the Divine Kingdom was covered with divine runes, and the weapons of the knights were not simple lances, but giant spears specially made for the Knights of the Divine Kingdom by the Church.
In the sky above this army, there were flying magic beasts, obviously bought from Cloud Flow.
The flying magic beasts were about a thousand meters high, and the soldiers on the backs of the magic beasts could easily observe the ground with alchemy binoculars. The Elemental Magic Tower was ten thousand meters high, but Salin's existence had already been discovered by the people on the ground.
"Eleanor."
Eleanor nodded and took out Longbow Seven Nights. She nocked three ordinary magic arrows and shot them from the Elemental Magic Tower at ten thousand meters high. At such a long distance, even a level-ten Mage couldn't guarantee that they would hit the enemy.
The archers, on the other hand, could do it. The three magic arrows carried by the Wind Element pierced through the skulls of the three Magical Beasts from above like eagles.
The feathers of the magic arrows could accelerate, and Eleanor only needed to calculate the enemy's position. Even if they were a hundred miles away, she could still launch an attack. The prerequisite was that her Seven Nights could shoot that far.
Blood splattered in the sky. Eleanor's arrows really were like rain, and she shot three arrows at a time, each one hitting its target.
The magic beasts in the sky immediately descended to the ground. The attacks came from the sky, and they were experienced enough to know that they couldn't block such a fierce attack with speed and defense.
Salin stared at the ground and saw that the people on the ground didn't panic. Instead, they split into teams of a thousand. These thousand people gave up on their servants and formed teams of a hundred.
There were also three mages in each of the ten hundred-men squads.
Then, something happened that stunned Salin. The thousand Knights of the Divine Kingdom flew into the sky and headed straight for the magic beasts.
Eleanor's arrows were immediately shot down by the magic of the mages, and they couldn't hit the magic beasts anymore.
Rays of divine light were released, and Salin saw that the mages were also wearing equipment made from the Stone God's fragments. These equipment allowed all the mages' power to be linked together. When each mage released a magic spell individually, the power would increase by at least one level.
The warhorses of the Divine Kingdom's knights were also wrapped in armor. As the divine light bloomed, the warhorses soared into the sky. The divine light on their hooves was the strongest. These warhorses were carrying the Divine Kingdom's knights on their backs, not relying on their strength to fly.
Thirty thousand Divine Kingdom's knights were equivalent to thirty thousand Nightmare Horses!
Salin also knew that this ability wouldn't last very long. In other words, it would consume things like divine crystals. But this battle wouldn't last long, because the warhorses of the Divine Kingdom's knights could run at a speed of more than two hundred miles in the sky.
Even most mages couldn't fly that fast. Only mages above level-nine could outrun these warhorses.
What the hell was this!
Salin was very clear that if he hadn't come personally, a demon army would have been annihilated by the attack of the Divine Kingdom's knights.
They wouldn't even be able to escape!
Fortunately, he had the Elemental Magic Tower. Salin decisively seized control of the Water Golem and personally controlled the Elemental Magic Tower to descend.
The ten squads of Divine Kingdom's knights all had silver Sword Saints. In other words, with the support of their comrades, these silver Sword Saints could become gold Sword Saints at any time, exploding with great speed and attack power.
Salin's Elemental Magic Tower descended too quickly, landing directly on top of a squad. The Elemental Magic Tower's huge body and terrifying speed directly smashed several Divine Kingdom's knights to death.
