Chapter 439 Have we been beaten?
"Restricted by the confidentiality contract, I cannot take the initiative to disclose any information about that kind of secret method. At most, it will allow you to explore the operation of the life fighting energy in my body. I can't say how much
useful information I can get, so you'd better not hold on to it. Too much expectation."
"It doesn't matter, it would be nice to have some information. It would be best if Ms. Hisari is willing to cooperate."
While chatting like this, they arrived at the training ground in the library.
After activating the rune circle in the training ground, Catherine stepped forward and unlocked the restraining shackles on Xisali's body.
Feeling the gradually recovering physical strength and life fighting spirit, Hisari sighed a little.
——This may be one of the few moments from now on when she is not wearing restrictive shackles!
At this moment, Brand reminded:
"By the way, Ms. Hisari had better not do something irrational.
That will not have any other consequences except lowering the treatment of your prisoners."
After hearing this, Hisari shook her head and said:
"Mr. Brand, please rest assured that you can untie my restrictions so easily, which means you have enough means to suppress me again, right? In addition,
this is the Kaya Empire In the inland imperial capital, even if I escape from here, I have nowhere to go."
Hearing this, Brand smiled and nodded.
Next, under the observation of Brand's magic, Hisari used that secret method.
After a period of observation, research and practical testing, Brand had a certain understanding of this secret method.
It does allow Hisari, who is at the senior knight level, to have the power of a great knight, and it also gives her the power of a great knight, but that's all.
——There is still a certain difference from the real great knight.
The actual function of this secret method is to improve the user's physical fitness within a certain period of time. If the user happens to be at the top of a high-level knight, it can also give him the power of a great knight.
In addition, it cannot use the power of a great knight as freely as a real great knight, and use it as a basis to release great secret skills.
And there is a period of weakness for several hours after the duration ends.
This method is somewhat similar to the orc's madness, but the effect is a little weaker, and it has no effect on recovering injuries.
To sum up, it is a very valuable thing.
After coming to this conclusion and recording the operation of the life fighting energy in Xisari's body, Brand ended the test.
He put the restraint shackles on Hisari again and sent her to a spacious room in the station, where she was guarded by servants and knight golems.
Brand took Catherine back to the room where he usually lived and studied in the library.
Immediately afterwards, as his mental power began to be slowly consumed, a stack of paper with a picture of the movement of life and fighting energy inside the human body was materialized.
——This is a page turning animation.
It records the entire process of the movement of life fighting energy in Hisari's use of the secret method.
Because Hisari completely let go of her cover, Brand also "saw" the whole process through magic.
Similar to how a mage must first build a spell model to release a spell, a knight's use of various secret techniques and knight's secret skills also requires the movement of life fighting energy in the body in a specific way.
Unlike the mage who successfully builds a spell model and then injects magic power to release the spell,
the use of knight's secret skills and secret methods also involves the cooperation of spiritual consciousness and physical body.
This is something Brand cannot find out in detail.
Of course, he actually had no intention of completely restoring that secret technique.
As long as Catherine can gain a certain amount from this, it will be enough.
As the paper in her hand turned, the pictures began to "move" like magical images, and Catherine couldn't help but look surprised.
——Her young master always comes up with some new gadgets that have never been seen in the Farnes Continent!
...
While Brand and Catherine were dealing with Hisali and the secret law affairs.
At the academy's press station, a recorded magical video was being played in front of Finn and Garius.
A square-shaped military fortress with a closed door, thick walls, narrow windows, erect guard towers, and all kinds of ordnance is being attacked by the Mage Association team led by Andy and numerous knight golems.
While the magic video was playing normally, Gallius also explained:
"This is the special exchange project for the younger generation that is currently open to the Imperial City Mage Festival: Fortress Attack.
Currently, the college is already participating in a team battle organized by students. This kind of combat event has been added.
Although it is also a 20 vs. 20 battle, with one side defending and the other attacking, the battle to attack the fortress also involves the use of ordnance and the cooperation with the knight golem." Looking at the magic image in front of
him In the picture:
Andy and others, along with many knight golems, braved spells, rain of arrows, flying stones, and various hidden spell traps as they struggled to approach the gate of the fortress. Finn's lips curled up unconsciously. Happy smile.
After thinking for a moment, Finn asked:
"Is the style of the fort the same in each battle? In addition, what is the material of the fort?"
Gaelius responded:
"There are certain differences in each battle. Currently, there are Most of the forts that have been seen are prism-shaped forts, with each side edge being a spire cylindrical tower that protrudes outward and upward. The
material of these forts is extremely hard, and the instructors of the college have carried out special reinforcements.
Even junior mages jointly casting advanced spells can only cause slight damage."
Hearing this, Finn asked curiously:
"So you can only break in from the main entrance or the side entrance?"
Gaelius shook his head and said,
"There are no rules. Without strict restrictions, even if the structure of the fort is not damaged, in addition to the fort gate, one can also enter the fort through the relatively wide and large windows on the upper floors of the fort. However, this method is easy to focus fire, and even if you successfully enter, you will be besieged
.
Another thing that needs special attention is that
the attacking knight golem will only attack the fortress according to the established route of action."
After hearing Gaelius's last words, Finn couldn't help but be a little surprised and said:
"The knight golem is not its own Is it controlled by the camp itself?"
Gallius explained:
"Based on the defensive strength of the fortress's ordnance, the attacker and defender will each have different numbers and strengths of knight golems, and the attacker has more knight golems. These
knights The armor on the golem can resist a certain degree of spell damage.
After the battle begins, the attacking knight golem will attack along a predetermined route, and can only perform some simple operations in the middle.
The specific attack route of the Knight Golem can only be known by the attacker.
The defender needs to predict the opponent's actions, arrange weapons and knight golems appropriately, and prevent the opponent from attacking.
In addition, the attacker's task is to occupy the fort within the specified time, while the defender's task is to ensure that the fort is not occupied by the opponent within the time. "
Hearing this, Finn couldn't help but sigh and said:
"This is just like fighting with the army. Our mages' task is to cooperate with the large army in operations. "
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the magic image in front of him.
Following the large army of knight golems, Andy and others who were about to rush to the gate of the fortress were sniped from the left and right sentry towers.
Three beams of scarlet light The attack directly knocked out three members of the Mages Association, including Andy.
Seeing this attack method, Finn couldn't help but said in shock:
"This seems to be the attack of the magic crossbow, right? Does the defender still have this kind of advanced ordnance? "
Gailius nodded and explained:
"Basically every battle will happen, but the academy has also imposed certain restrictions.
The magic crossbow usually does not attack more than five times.
In this battle of Magic Image, the defenders only had three magic crossbows, and each could only attack once. "
Finn scratched his head and said:
"This is already very exaggerated. This kind of attack that touches the level of a great knight, if it is not far away, even I will not have time to make any response.
Moreover, it is unrealistic to use a shield to defend against attacks of a demon-breaking or armor-breaking nature! "
Gailius responded:
"That's true. Since the launch of this team battle mode, very few people have escaped the sniper kills of the magical giant crossbows. The few accidents were mostly due to mistakes in locking operations. .
Until now, we almost all think that someone on the offensive side must take the initiative to lure the defensive side to use the magic crossbow to attack and exchange money with them.
Like this battle in Magic Image, Brother Andy took the initiative to stand up. "
Looking at the magic image in front of him, in addition to more than 30 knight golems, only 9 members of the Mages Association finally broke into the castle gate. Finn couldn't help but began to
mourn Andy.
Although Andy is so "brave" "Sacrifice", but the final result of the battle may still not be too good.
——There are still 20 mages, 30 knight golems, and various spell traps waiting for them inside the fort.
To Finn's surprise The expected situation is:
the Mages will win this battle!
As the magic image in front of him plays to the end, Gaelius also points out the brilliance of the Mages or Andy in this battle with a look of admiration. :
"Although the movement route of the knight golems will not change, Brother Andy arranged their formation carefully!
Most of the knight golems who died outside the fortress were junior and intermediate knight golems, and those who finally broke into the fortress were all high-level knight golems.
Although they are slightly inferior in quantity, in the battle inside the fort, these knight golems can defeat many with one. Even if the opponent has many arrangements, the Mages will still have an absolute advantage!
thus! The Mage Association defeated the Earth Courtyard and defended its position as the second mage organization in the academy! "
Hearing this, Finn couldn't help but ask:
"Have we been beaten down? "
That's right! " "
Gailius told the facts of what happened when Finn was out on execution with a regretful look on his face:
"Now not only the Earth Courtyard, the team of the Secret Society of Light also successfully defeated us yesterday! "
