Although Aradeline and Aubrey intended to let Elsa lead the team alone, they obviously could not let Elsa die by herself.
The two old guys doted on Elsa very much. If they did not have any backup plans, how could they make such a decision?
They dared to do this because Ellington's supplies were too perfect. All kinds of weapons and equipment were available. Especially after they had been equipped with new equipment and weapons, the combat ability of the entire legion had skyrocketed. They were simply going to beat the demons here.
Even the ordinary soldiers could withstand a few direct attacks from the demons, let alone Elsa.
More importantly, the Blood of the Goddess and the Return Crystal were simply priceless life-saving treasures. If used well, it would be difficult for them to die on the battlefield.
Another reason was the assistance of Salatimore.
As a demon hellcat, Salatimore could not only effectively attract the hatred of the demons, but also protect Elsa's safety with its strength.
In addition, there were also Paladins accompanying them, who used various divine spells to assist in combat. There was no need to worry about the safety of the team carrying out the mission.
In fact, this was because the Saintess Eluri was not in the Great Rift Valley. If she was, she would probably be stuffed into the team as well.
Don't be surprised. The two old guys would definitely do such a thing.
…
"Everyone, get on!"
Elsa shouted as she got on the Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The team members assigned to her also got on one by one. The Paladins accompanying her got on their horses.
Elsa's orders were crisp and clear. After arranging the supplies, she waved her hand and said, "Let's go!" The team rushed out of the gate and rushed to the third zone north of the camp in the Great Rift Valley.
Elsa took the lead on the Harley-Davidson motorcycle, completely unafraid of the dangers that might appear. Rather, it could be said that the fighting in the past half a month had completely sharpened her fighting spirit, and at this moment, she welcomed any challenge.
Elsa was accompanied by a team of twelve Paladins, whose average strength was between Silver and Gold. The captain, Reynolds, was Gold Rank 9, close to the grandmaster level. However, after changing into the legendary armor and legendary weapons provided by Ellington, Reynolds, a Gold Paladin at the pinnacle of the Gold rank, was not afraid of any grandmaster level enemies. Even if he was dragged into a realm, with the help of his unique divine spells, he could still fight back.
"Captain Reynolds, no matter how you look at it, the motorcycle they are riding is better than our horses."
Hudson complained in a low voice. He was one of Reynolds' subordinates, and an experienced Gold-ranked Paladin. Although his faith was firm, he was a talkative person. He was also somewhat mischievous, so he was still a Golden Bachelor.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Reynolds glared at him, then gently stroked the horse's mane and said earnestly, "The horse is a part of us. We have to treat it like family. That way, it will be our best assistant in battle."
"But," Hudson pursed his lips, "Gabriel was so nice to his warhorse before, but when they fought, didn't the warhorse still kick him away? So I think Ellington's motorcycle is better. It has no consciousness, it's completely obedient, and we don't have to feed it grass. "
The warhorse beneath Hudson snorted.
"Your friend is unhappy. Don't provoke it."
"I don't believe it can understand me."
Hudson pursed his lips again. Looking at the team in front of him, he could not help but whisper, "Captain, we didn't make any mistakes in the previous battles. Why do we have to die with this girl this time?"
This time, Aradeline had given 30 warriors to Elsa and 12 Paladins. Including Elsa, there were 43 people (Salatimore was not counted). With such a small number of people, they had to go deep into the Third North District to close the demon portal. No matter how one looked at it, the order was to send them to their deaths.
"Shut up, you idiot!"
Reynolds's face suddenly changed, and he scolded, "Sometimes I wonder if there's water in your brain!"
"Captain?"
"You didn't fight with her in the previous battles, so you don't know how brave she is!"
Reynolds shook his head, then continued, "Open your dog eyes and look carefully at their equipment. Are those 30 warriors ordinary warriors?"
He growled, "Their equipment is much better than ours! One against two, and don't you see that they are all at the peak of the Gold level!? "
"So what …"
"There's nothing wrong with calling you an idiot! These peak Gold level warriors are the backbone of the camp in the Rift Valley! They are the foundation of the Irus Empire's future development, and now they're all here to listen to that girl's orders, and none of them have any complaints. Don't you see? "
Reynolds scolded in a low voice, "It's fine if you can't see it, but don't you see who the kitten on her shoulder is?"
"That's … Salatimore!?"
"At least you're not blind!"
Reynolds spat and scolded, "With it following, do you think this operation is a suicide mission? Rather than a suicide mission, it's better to say it's to gild Elsa's reputation! We're probably here because they saw how hard we fought, so they let us come and bask in their glory! "
When Hudson heard the captain's analysis, he felt that it made sense, but he couldn't bring himself to say it out loud. He couldn't help but pout. "In the end, it's all because that girl has a special background. That's why she gets such special treatment."
Reynolds snapped, "Nonsense. Duke Ardrian is her grandfather, Duke Aubrey is her grandfather, Princess Parola is her grandmother, and Princess Aurelia is her cousin. How many people in the world can compare to her background?"
"So …"
"But you're wrong," Reynolds said seriously.
"She doesn't have her current prestige because of these halos, but because she fought for it with her own fists and swords."
"Captain, are you kidding me? She's just a little girl …"
Hudson didn't believe Reynolds. In the previous battle, he and Elsa were separated, so he didn't know how strong Elsa was.
"Believe it or not, you'll know when we meet the enemy later."
Reynolds didn't want to say anything more. He'd let the truth speak for itself.
Now, he just hoped that this kid would keep his mouth shut and not make any mistakes because of his loose lips.
One had to know that both the Pope and the Saintess, Her Holiness Eluria, had high hopes for Twain. They were counting on him to lead the Ilrous Empire and strengthen it so that the Radiant Church could once again become the number one church.
After the team left the patrol area of the camp in the Rift Valley, the atmosphere in the wasteland suddenly became tense.
After more than half a month of fighting, the entire wilderness was a mess. There were traces of battle everywhere. Although the Harley-Davidson motorcycles had superior performance, they still had to slow down in the face of the bumpy terrain. Thus, the Paladins on horseback had an inexplicable sense of superiority.
Look, although your mounts are obedient, you still have to look at your horses in times like this.
Elsa was also full of complaints about the broken terrain. If she had known, she would have asked Ellington for a batch of Comet motorcycles or flying cloaks to fly over.
The team had just passed through the battlefield when a shadow suddenly swooped down from the sky.
"Enemy attack! Prepare for battle! "
Elsa shouted sternly. At the same time, she pulled out the chainsword on her back and instantly activated the magic circle on the chainsword.
"Hum!"
The chainsword spun quickly, trembling and buzzing. The magic light gathered more and more on the chainsword, and the whole sword seemed to be burning.
Reynolds stopped his horse, chanted a prayer loudly, and raised his hand to cast the "Blessing of the Holy Light" on Elsa and the others in front. The other Paladins also blessed their comrades. Then, the attack from the sky descended.
The Nazura winged demons screamed and rushed to the center of the team. Their sharp claws wrapped in shadow power tried to hunt the warriors in the center of the team, but at this moment —
The thirty warriors sneered in unison. The next moment, they raised the weapons in their hands — all of them were assault rifles — and angrily sprayed a dense rain of bullets!
"Boom boom boom boom —"
The special bullets with the power of Fireball and Blessing of the Holy Light bombarded the Nazura winged demons at a terrible speed of hundreds of meters per second. Although the fragile membrane wings were protected by the shadow power, the power of the Holy Light was their nemesis. It easily destroyed the protective layer and then tore their wings into rags.
What was even more surprising was that the dense rain of bullets had caught the Nazura Flying Winged Demons off guard. A large number of bullets hit their bodies, and when they were within 10 meters of them, their bodies were severely burned. Even their bones were exposed.
At this moment, the targets in the middle of the team put away the assault rifles in their hands and switched to fierce chainswords at lightning speed. Then, with a leap, they took the initiative to rush in front of the Nazura winged demon and stabbed their chainswords into the demon's chest!
The rotating chainswords flashed with holy light and tore the bodies of the Nazura winged demons, crazily cutting their flesh.
“AHAAAAA!!!”
Everyone already knew that the demon's vital point was the heart. They frantically waved their chainswords, looking for the hearts of the Nazura winged demons. After half a month of fighting, the warriors already knew that the location of the demons' hearts was not fixed, and even the number was not fixed. So, they would look for the vital points to attack at the first moment of the battle.
The results were remarkable.
At this time, Elsa's attack finally arrived …
