Chapter 155 Before the final battle,
it was desolate, empty and dull. This was Imric's first impression of the Fenouir Plain. Even Saffrey did not carry out large-scale construction in this place. Although he did not know why, But I don't care about this.
This trip can be said to have brought together all the combat forces that can be assembled. The Wrath of Vaal and the Ardaeus Holy Fire arrived at the predetermined sea area. Amarna is responsible for covering the operations of these two ships. If there are a few eyeless black dragons or scorpions, If the tailed lion wants to join forces to land, it will only provide extra food for the ancient sea dragon.
The Etain scouts riding giant eagles have reported intelligence to themselves. Malekith is leading an unprecedentedly large army to approach this location. It is obvious that he wants to wipe out Ulthuan's resistance forces in one fell swoop.
On the temporary high platform, nearly 60,000 troops gathered here. Standing on the high platform, the Eternal Queen was surrounded by maids and came down in front of everyone.
Compared with what Imrik is used to seeing, she looks more like a living goddess in the mortal world. Elsa's divine power shrouds her body, making her appear divine and abnormal under the light of some vague light.
All the elves except Caledor looked at her with love. They were ready to fight for the queen. Even the most intellectual and calm magic swordsmen of Hoth had taken off their mysterious disguises. He looked at the Eternal Queen with enthusiasm on his face.
Imric, on the other hand, led the people in the audience to watch Alarielle's speech with their chests folded. This speech was something she had requested for him to hold before. When they heard this, the Dragon Prince was dumbfounded and didn't take advantage of it. It’s time to quickly deploy some defense facilities and magic circles, but instead give a meaningless speech?
At that time, he thought about sternly rejecting the matter, but Imric ignored one thing. Not all soldiers have as high morale as Caledor. They can continue to charge as long as the dragon horn sounds. After Alarielle’s reminder Next, I can only hold my nose and recognize it.
"I don't understand the significance of this. The war cannot be won by relying on some useless rhetoric before the war." Iron Wolf standing next to Imric said. As a warrior directly affiliated with the Dragon Prince, he There is no need to accept anyone's orders. After arriving in Ulthuan, most of the time was spent in the Flame Tower, resulting in Caledonians knowing very little about it.
"You can think of this as a ritual. After all, elves care about the so-called sense of ritual." Imrik started to communicate with Iron Wolf in English and complained about this behavior.
"Then this kind of ceremony should allow a few people to go up and fight with each other, and then jointly sing the glory of the ancestors." Barbarian Damian also said something aside, and the three people from Darkness had been arranged alone by Imric. The mission of the group is to rush forward when seeing clearly marked high-threat targets. Strong combat effectiveness and precious equipment are the guarantee for this tactic.
Just when several people were complaining in words that others could not understand, Alarielle stood on the stage and spoke, with a smile on her face, and the effect of her divine power made everyone feel that they were being watched by her. .
"People of Ulthuan, in this dark time, we are gathered together again." The queen's voice was obviously blessed by some magic, and even the low tone could be clearly heard by everyone. In the ears, one can feel inexplicable respect and faith.
"We are facing an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, but we have very few allies. We have failed time and time again. If you lose confidence in the final victory, I will not blame you." Yi Yi heard this
. Mrik couldn't hold himself tight and accidentally laughed. This seemed to be noticed by the maid who was paying attention to Caledor at some point. She glanced at the Dragon Prince and told him to be more serious.
After Alarielle's words, most people showed excitement and loneliness. If Caledor hadn't provided timely support, no one would have known how much the losses in this war would have been.
"But even if the reality is so cruel, you still have not given up. Instead, you have strengthened your faith to fight against the darkness. Now you stand in front of me, ready to fight and sacrifice for Ulthuan. I am proud of each of you. "
Alarielle's speech continued. She commended several people who performed outstandingly in the war one by one, and explained that Ulthuan was grateful for their contributions. Beforehand, she asked Imrik if she needed to be commended for saving her, but the Dragon Prince refused. There was no one who could commend me. This was a matter of dignity. If someone was as single as those on the stage, Kneeling down was not only unbearable for me, but also the Dragon Prince in the audience would not think it was a matter of honor.
When Alarielle continued to press Lailai, Imric winked at Lilaze beside her, indicating that it would end quickly. Even if his relationship with the queen was close, he could not let her at this time. Do these things endlessly.
.........
"Tyrion."
Tyrion, who was stopped by someone, stopped to continue his command. He was about to lead people to survey the terrain on the spot. Itaine's task was to defend the passage on the right, where distribution There are plenty of guiding stones.
Seeing the dragon prince who called him home, he was a little curious. During this period of time, except for a few people around Imric, he had not had much contact with these Caledians, so he didn't know what was going on with him.
The dragon prince came over with a horse. This horse was stronger than any horse Tyrion had ever seen. It had thick enchanted horse armor, but looking at its strolling movements, it seemed like it was nothing more than a thin piece of armor. Paper.
"The prince ordered me to give this horse to you." As he spoke, the Dragon Prince had some unconcealable envy in his eyes. This war horse is called Malhandel, and it was Randy who was supporting Elion through the Twilight Tide. The bloodline of those brought back to Caledor is astonishingly pure. It is speculated that they are descendants of Korhandil, the father of horses. He is physically strong and extremely intelligent.
And this also led to the fact that no one in Caledor could ride on it. The only one who could ride on it was Imric, and he relied on the dragon lord's suppression at the life level to ride on it. Moreover, the dragon prince did not like this at all. A war horse, with Minas Nir when flying in the sky, and Mortellius when running on the ground. What is the use of this disobedient horse, so it has been kept as a stallion in the Caledor Rest. .
A few days ago, Imric tried to let this horse follow the transport team to Saffrey, intending to give it to Tyrion to try, because during the march, he saw Tyrion riding an unknown Itain. The war horse has always made the Dragon Prince feel very strange. He always felt that the donkey named Malhandel should be the real Tyrion to ride on. In addition, no one in the country could ride on it, so he simply gave it to him.
Tyrion felt that Lilith had been watching him during this period, and the sadness of his mentor being killed had eased a bit. First he became the general of Etain, and then the Dragon Prince sent him an extremely useful magic necklace. Now he has made up for his shortcomings in the mount, and he has simply reached the top.
"Marhandel, a pure descendant of Korhandil, the father of ten thousand horses." Dragon Prince Judith stood beside him and explained the preciousness of this gift in a concise and concise manner.
Tyrion gently touched the nose of the war horse named Malhandel, and found that its eyes were full of wisdom. A wonderful feeling emerged in his heart, and the relationship between the elf and the horse seemed to be established. Having discovered the mysterious connection, Tyrion had a vague premonition in his heart that this war horse would be his lifelong partner, just like the relationship between Imric and Minas Nir.
He began to laugh, and Malhandel seemed to laugh too. Tyrion turned over and mounted his war horse. The horse armor was not Caledor's unique dragon-shaped horse armor, but the more traditional silver helmet knight's horse. Armor, obviously this is a unique gift.
After two laps on his horse, he dismounted and said to the Dragon Prince, "Say thank you on behalf of the Dragon Prince. I like this gift very much."
