"Legion, against the legion!"
Although the command that contained the majesty of a superior and the iron will of a conqueror was not loud, it instantly spread throughout the battlefield. Even the brave Roman soldiers were shocked by the smell of blood and gunpowder contained in the seemingly delicate girl's words.
As the personal guards of the Roman Emperor for many years, these soldiers were very familiar with this feeling. It was the aura of a true emperor. It was the aura of a great emperor who could decide the life and death of an entire country with just one sentence. A pretentious aristocrat could never imitate this aura.
"Ka ka, ka ka …"
The sound of metal hitting each other resounded in the air. Countless teleportation portals appeared around us, emitting a faint white light. Looking from the sky, it was as if hundreds of fireflies had suddenly appeared in a thick layer of iron sand. Even if the Roman soldiers did not know what was going on, they instinctively felt threatened. They grabbed the javelins in their hands and threw them at the teleportation portals. However, it was meaningless. The teleportation portals were like reflections in the water. Facing the swarm of attacks, they did not suffer any damage except for a burst of ripples.
The orderly declaration of war sounded like thunder.
"Strength is justice! Might brings freedom! Dictatorship maintains peace! The sharp blade is pointed at the borders of the Empire! Conquer everything! Conquer everything! "
Listening to this powerful declaration of war, I was so moved that tears welled up in my eyes.
How long has it been? How long has it been? It has been a long time since I last heard such a meaningful action of the Empire! The former commanders of the ace army had all been turned into ruffians by me. Now, only these brainless soldiers were reliable!
"Ah Jun, what's wrong?"
Sandora immediately asked with concern when she noticed the painful expression on my face. I replied with a faint smile:
"It's nothing, baby. I'm just a little sad …"
Hundreds of burly men wearing black alloy armor strode out of the teleportation portals. Their high-tech armor and cold zombie faces exuded a salty smell of rust under the illumination of the crimson moon. The moment these soldiers appeared, the javelins and swords of the Roman soldiers greeted them. Then, countless energy sparks appeared on the psionic shields. Although the complete Einherjar might be able to fight against the Schilling soldiers, these were only clones after all. Their attacks could not break through the defense of the soldiers.
To be honest, although we had a close relationship, sometimes, I really couldn't understand some of Sandora's ideas. For example, it was obvious that it was very easy to get rid of this Roman general. He wouldn't be able to withstand a few satellite cannons. However, Sandora actually summoned her own army to fight against these backward Einherjar soldiers. This kind of idea of not using one's own advantages and not caring about 'military honor' was something that I would never understand in my lifetime.
However, since Sandora was so insistent, I would naturally support her. Besides, she wasn't inflexible. Right now, she only made this choice because she had the absolute advantage in terms of combat power. If she was fighting against the Fallen Apostle, I'm afraid that the sinister tactics that she could come up with wouldn't be any less than mine …
"Light infantry, retreat! Scatter! Send in the reserves! Spearmen, attack! "
"All units, fire at will with your psionic weapons!"
The battle cries of the Roman soldiers and the roar of the psionic cannons resounded across the battlefield at the same time. Pitch-black magic javelins and blue psionic sparks erupted in every corner of the Roman army.
Airdrop siege. What Sandora used was a typical airdrop siege tactic. As the former Warsong Princess, Sandora had already used all kinds of commonly used tactics as her instincts. This method of using high-level Shiring Apostles to charge into the enemy's formation and summon a large number of basic soldiers was as famous as the crushing of the Empire's heavy warships. In a chaotic battle between two armies, a high-level Apostle who suddenly charged into one's main camp and summoned an unlimited number of soldiers was definitely a fatal threat that could end the battle. Although this would sacrifice the Schilling soldiers' advantage of range to a certain extent, the sudden appearance of the Shiring Apostles was enough to make up for this small flaw. We didn't need range to deal with ordinary troops because the enemy's commanding team would be wiped out in the next second.
It was as wretched as placing the exit of the barracks next to the seat of the enemy commander.
In fact, the result of the battle was pretty good. Although almost all of the Schilling soldiers were attacked by the nearest Roman soldiers, the psionic shield on their bodies successfully resolved the first round of damage. Only less than ten unlucky guys were seriously injured by nearly a hundred people. They had to return to the other dimension to be repaired. The remaining Schilling soldiers had already activated the psionic weapons in their hands and began to harvest the enemy's lives in large numbers.
Under my reminder, Sandora had already ordered the soldiers to only use psionic weapons. Although psionic weapons were not as effective as physical weapons in the atmosphere, the psionic weapons were the only effective way to deal with these guys who were constantly resurrecting under the crimson moon. The so-called energy attenuation was only relative. At such a close distance, not a single Roman soldier could withstand the power of the psionic light beam. Large numbers of enemy soldiers were shot full of holes under the psionic light beam and fell heavily to the ground. This time, they could no longer resurrect.
However, even though his soldiers were dying at a speed visible to the naked eye, the nameless Roman general still stood firmly on the chariot. His eyelids did not even blink as he calmly issued an order, "Light infantry! Continue to attack from the flank! Are there any more living reinforcements? Enter the battle! I will not retreat, and you will not retreat either! "
His courage was commendable, but unfortunately, the outcome had already been decided.
In fact, when Sandora and I personally rushed to the main formation of the Heroic Legion, they were already defeated.
After the last pike was cut in half by a bright blue light beam, there were no more survivors on the battlefield. The main formation of the Roman Legion was completely destroyed. A few kilometers away, the radiance of the Crystal Virgin Mary was gradually dimming. It was not because she had run out of energy, but because there were no more enemies to kill.
"Rome will win!"
Leading the few remaining personal guards, the nameless general jumped down from the war chariot with his broadsword raised high and charged at us without any fear of death. A blue ray of light whizzed through the air from behind Shadora and struck her heart. However, this was the first time that the ray of light that had never failed failed to kill its target. The other party actually used magic to block this attack. With a large burn mark on his chest, the nameless general charged straight at me and slashed down with his broadsword.
I raised my hand and grabbed the blade of the enemy. I couldn't help but be slightly surprised by the strength of the enemy. In the next second, the brave general exploded into light spots that filled the sky.
* Chi chi chi. * A few rapid light beams hit the remaining Heroic Spirit Infantry, turning the last enemy into scattered energy particles in the air.
"Excellent soldiers." Sandora let out a long sigh and sighed from the bottom of her heart.
"Anyway, they will soon become our subordinates."
"Do you really intend to abduct all the heroic spirits?" Shadora gave me a sideways glance. "But I do admire this kind of soldier …"
The only regret was that these Roman soldiers weren't true Heroic Spirits. Sakura's power couldn't directly transform them. I could only try to negotiate with the origin of the world. Otherwise, we would have been able to kidnap more than ten thousand undying Heroic Spirit fighters in today's battle.
"Oh right, Sandora." I suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, "The general mentioned something about Gaius. He should be the true Heroic Spirit summoned by the Tong family. Do you know who he is?"
Sandora blinked her eyes. "If I remember correctly, he is the most famous founding emperor of the Roman Empire. His full name is Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus. He ruled the Roman Empire for 43 years. Due to his great achievements, he was given the name Augustus by the later generations … Eh? Ah Jun, what's wrong with you? "
I looked up at the sky with tears in my eyes.
"It's nothing. I just feel that having an alien teach me about Earth's history makes me feel sad …"
If I could seriously listen to a few history lessons when I was in middle school, wouldn't I not have to embarrass the people of Earth?
Although the battle was extremely fierce, it only lasted for less than an hour. The main reason was that the violent armed group of the Empire led by Pandora was too fierce. (I will never admit that the number of Roman soldiers who died under my various energy blasts was more than the number of soldiers who died under the cannon fire of the Little Crazy Sisters!) The firepower that was originally used to bombard battleships in space was suppressed several times after switching to atmospheric mode. However, the power was still not something an ordinary Heroic Spirit could withstand. An army of ten thousand Heroic Spirits (although they weren't real Heroic Spirits) had been resurrected several times under the Crimson Moon. The number of Heroic Spirits could be twice that number. To be honest, it was a little unreal.
Although they were enemies now, I couldn't help but admire such an army. Just like what the nameless general said, the Roman warriors never retreated. Until the last soldier was turned into a sieve, not a single deserter appeared in the army of ten thousand. They fought to the last man. Even when there were only three infantrymen left, they still attacked us without panicking. Even Sandora couldn't help but praise such brave soldiers.
Therefore, I was even more determined to abduct the Heroic Spirit Army …
A few minutes later, we regrouped with Enaka and the others.
"Artoria? Are you injured? "
I noticed that the hairy girl had been pressing her ribs with her hand, and there was a faint trace of blood between her fingers. I couldn't help but worry about her.
"I was ambushed, but it's not a big deal. If I have the [Glorious Aura], I will recover quickly." Saber replied seriously. Looking at her energetic appearance, it should be a superficial wound.
After all, the Heroic Spirits were not monsters like the Shiring Apostles. Just a psionic shield could make the enemy weak. Perhaps Saber's combat power could fight against low-level Schilling officers, but now she was just an incomplete body summoned by the Holy Grail system. In such a battle, injuries were inevitable. Not only her, but Sasaki, who was also a melee soldier, also had a few wounds on his body. However, the swordsman who was proficient in combat and footwork was obviously more skilled in damage control. Although he had many wounds, he looked twice as energetic as Saber.
"Ah! Boss! I'm injured too! "
Seeing that I was concerned about a "non-staff member" as soon as I arrived, Sasaki was of course quite upset. He pointed to a white mark on his arm and exaggerated the injury. On the other side, Rider also silently walked to my side and showed me a faint bloodstain on his shoulder. He muttered in a low voice, "Boss, a raise!"
In other words, as long as I joined the Schilling Camp, my moral integrity would be - 10086?
"Is everyone okay?"
I looked around. I could ignore Pandora, Visca, Vega, and the others who were lively and energetic. I could also ignore Little Bubble who was looking up and chatting with the red moon in the sky. Jingle had just crawled into my pocket, and I could feel her rolling around inside. Teardrop was waving his sword and posing happily. In short, the Schilling Front Army was in a good state after the battle.
Enban and the others looked much more disheveled. Although there weren't many injuries, the high-intensity battle with ten thousand Heroic Spirits for an hour consumed a lot of stamina. More importantly, it was mental consumption, especially Enban, who looked like he couldn't even stand up.
"Phew —" Missy let out a long sigh and pulled my clothes to get up. "You're still alive. I thought I was going to die today … Uncle Alien, I didn't expect you to be so powerful. To be honest, I was almost scared silly at first."
Almost scared silly? I think you were really scared silly at that time, right?
You were the first to be scared silly when the explosion appeared in the sky, and the first to scream when Pandora and Visca started their bombardment!
Of course, I couldn't say that out loud. Otherwise, Missy, who cared about her reputation, would definitely go crazy.
"Speaking of which, since you guys are so powerful, it shouldn't be a problem to leave all the battles to you guys, right?"
Missy, where's your moral integrity?
"But no matter what, this battle … is a little too exaggerated."
Wei Gong still had some lingering fear on his face. Not only was the scene of thousands of Heroic Spirits charging at him, but the scene of Pandora and the others sweeping through the battlefield with their gigantic cannons was even more shocking. For an ordinary student who was obediently studying at school not long ago, to suddenly be thrown into a battlefield filled with the flames of war was a huge impact.
"Young man, you should know that the universe is dangerous." I patted Wei Gong's shoulder and said sincerely, "Small monsters and QBs can be seen everywhere in space. Even large colliding targets like Ultraman are a huge problem for space travel. If you don't have enough firepower to arm yourself, the vast universe won't welcome you!"
"Ah Jun," Sandora touched my arm, "I think you just destroyed this child's lifelong dream of space."
It was fine. Anyway, Wei Gong as an astronaut wasn't a reliable thing to begin with.
After the heroic spirit army was destroyed, the abnormalities in the Inner World and Outer World gradually calmed down. The Garden of the Departed began to retrace its spatial coordinates, preparing to return the "frozen" Fuyuki City to its original location. Meanwhile, we began discussing our next step.
The Jiantō family summoned the Heroic Spirit Legion, or rather, they summoned a Heroic Spirit known as Augustus. This was already a matter of fact, and this Heroic Spirit Legion had a great relationship with the Crimson Moon in the Inner World. Based on these clues, we could infer a lot of things.
"First of all, the fake priest is definitely related to all of this."
Yuan Ban's thoughts were meticulous. She was now certain that Yan Feng Qili was the driving force behind the whole incident.
"Caster, you can enter the Inner World, and the Sasaki you summoned can use the light of the Crimson Moon to increase his strength. The origin of all this is because the fake priest gave you a black crystal dagger, right?"
Midea nodded silently, "Indeed, everything is his plan."
"The Roman Legion can also enter the Inner World. According to what you said, they have to rely on the Inner World if they want to appear on a large scale, and they can continue to resurrect under the Crimson Moon. These are very similar to Sasaki's situation, so I think the fake priest should also help the Jiantō family cheat."
This idea was very likely, but the key question was, what was the point?
Was it to let the two participants of the Holy Grail War get a huge advantage in cheating so that one of them could win the war? What was the value of this to Yanfeng?
"The only way is to ask the fake priest in person, but I don't think he will tell the truth," Midea yawned. "Also, the Jiantō family, although they look like a pawn, they should know more than Caster: the cheating device that the fake priest gave them is more powerful."
"But now I think it's better to go back and sleep …"
Midea added another long yawn, and said with a sleepy expression.
Well, everyone, except for Schilling, who was still very energetic, was already very tired today. Anyway, the Jiantō family and Yanfeng Church couldn't run away, and after the attack, the old man would definitely wait for us at home to find trouble. At this time, if we go home and sleep without any injuries, I don't know how depressed the old man would be.
It was interesting to think about it.
The space around us kept twisting and shaking. After a few seconds, the mansion of Midea's family reappeared in front of us. This time, it was the normal version. Seeing that her house was safe and sound, even though she knew it from the beginning, Midea still couldn't help but feel relieved.
Missy, who was always worried that her house would be forcibly demolished, it was really hard for you these days.
"Well … Is Jingle going to be thrown out again today?"
I said good night to everyone and went back to my room. When I was about to step into the door, the little thing suddenly poked her head out of my pocket and said with grievance.
Sandora and I were stunned. Suddenly, we had the same thought: What's with this kind of feeling, like a young couple is having a headache about how to coax the child to sleep next door?
"Does Ah Jun hate Jingle?"
The little guy continued to speak pitifully. His cuteness level was 5 plus to destroy my guilt.
"Okay … I will prepare a bigger lampshade for you." In the end, I helplessly looked at Sandora, pressed the little thing's head with the pad of my finger, and chose to surrender.
"Yay!" The little thing immediately cheered, "Today, I can be with Ah Jun again!"
Hey! If you shout like that, Shadora might change her mind and throw you out again!
