Chapter 251 Faith
The cold winter in Kislev gradually dissipated. The ice and snow in the mountains on the edge of the world melted into clear water and washed away this long-dried land. The soil should have given birth to the resurrection of all things in this water that brought life, but now But it became something else under the corrosion of chaos.
The land near the city of Kislev began to dry up and turned into a land of steel. Hard rocks protruding like sharp spikes could be seen everywhere. The dead trees that had died long ago were once again full of life. The trunks were covered with green pustules, and the roots swept through them unintentionally. Living things passing by use it as nutrients to continue growing.
Black shadows appeared from the sky and the ground together. Dark clouds accompanied the army of Chaos and pressed towards the south. The races in the civilized world also accumulated strength and prepared to destroy the army of Chaos.
All the wild beasts have already fled this area that is the site of the battle. The war bear, which symbolizes the power of Esun, is huddled in the cave and dare not go out to look for food. The snow eagle does not dare to set its sights here and only dares to lie down in the forest. Waiting for fate to come.
Beastmen lurking around the world poured into Kislev under the call of the Evil Moon, making the already huge Chaos army even more terrifying.
Magnus the Pious led the coalition forces gradually towards the black ocean. He could feel the terror of the creatures in the distance. The Kurgans riding tall war horses were slowly running forward as the vanguard. Following closely behind them were various Chaos warriors wearing heavy plate armor, as well as beastmen who kept roaring and hissing.
Mixed in among them are bullhorns and trolls. The huge figures of war mammoths and giants can be seen even from a distance. The four-armed Gur beast curbs its insatiable appetite under the orders of the screaming shaman. He turned his attention to the fresh human flesh, and sticky yellow saliva flowed from his teeth.
Two ancient dragon demons wearing brass plate armor and with lightning flowing on their bodies led their descendants to prepare to bring destruction to the world in order to complete the eternal contract between the dark gods and them.
The sky echoed with the unique roar of the manticore, with wrathful monsters and harpies hovering over it. Chaos warriors with strange flying disks on their feet were holding halberds and preparing to dominate the sky.
"It's really a day suitable for fighting. I hope you are ready, Pious One." Imrik's tone was very relaxed, and he joked next to Pious One. This kind of big scene may not happen in the next hundred years. If you encounter them, you have to see if those chaotic barbarians are planning to engage in a championship showdown, and if necessary, they can also mess up their results.
The pious man's face was not as relaxed as Imrik's, and his monocle was about to be crushed under his frown. This war is of great significance to the empire. If the coalition loses, Imrik will run away at worst. Back in Ulthuan, the dwarves huddled in their mountain fortress.
But the empire was about to face the threat of Chaos, and he would not allow the two followers of the patron god to be persecuted.
"Perhaps the dragon lord should stay on the dragon's back instead of running here alone." Genevieve glanced at the dragon prince. She knew that she had the information about the dragon wasteland in her hand, so she didn't need to take care of Imric. too much.
"I'm just Minas Nil's pendant, not a great person. Not getting close to this vampire lady makes me very insecure." Imrik mocked back calmly, this woman is here She has been hiding next to Magnus for several days, fearing that she would cause trouble for her. Now she is running to the battlefield. She simply has no idea of the actual situation. Teclis will have to keep an eye on her later. He cannot let her die. She is going to die. He also had to explain clearly what happened in Dragonbone Wasteland before he died.
"Are you sure that the giant dragon will entangle the father of the mammoth?" The pious man spoke slowly. He also thought that Imric was unwise to come to the human camp alone. Those giant beasts were obviously a huge threat and needed the dragon prince. This can only be effectively solved by leading the dragon yourself.
"Lao Mi is not the dragon you usually think of. Even if you can't kill Ugo, you can still keep it from getting close." Imrik still has an understanding of the strength of Minas Nir. If the old guy wasn't such a geek, he would definitely be more famous in the old world than the few dragons entrenched in the World's Edge Mountains. The strongest dragon in Ulthuan is definitely not someone who got there simply by virtue of his age.
"What's more, I also want to see if those Chaos Barbarians are planning to compete in a championship showdown. I am short of some demon heads as trophies. If necessary, I will return to the sky to fight." "I hope you understand what you are doing. ." The pious man didn't want to communicate any more, and raised his head to look at the huge chaos army.
The two sides are fighting on the plains, which means that the enemy can infinitely expand its military advantage and even surround the coalition forces. Even if the soldiers under his command are provincial troops provided by the electors to the maximum extent, there is still huge pressure.
Should we move some of the halberdiers on the left to the center line and let the great swordsmen cooperate with the Caledor soldiers to fight...
"Don't think so much, just do it. Sigma didn't become emperor based on doubts." Imric's words interrupted Magnus's thoughts. The Dragon Prince felt that it was useless to think so much. A lot of calculations had been done before the war. The chance of winning this war would not exceed 20%. If a surprise attack on the enemy's rear position was If the cavalry can achieve the expected results, it can be increased to 2.50%. If the Eternal God's Chosen can be killed in the championship showdown, it can be increased to 3.50%.
Eternal Chosen, Imric couldn't help but licked his lips when he thought of this name, and seemed a little excited. With our strength, it shouldn't be a big problem to kill the Eternal Chosen who will step in for Magnus. In the future, the title will be in Adding a Champion of Order after the Witch King's Whip is quite interesting when you think about it.
Magnus looked at the knights around him who were full of fighting spirit. The eyes in his helmet were full of perseverance and determination. The lance in his hand was held very steadily. The same was true for the provincial soldiers who were the backbone of the empire. Facing the terrifying military force of Chaos with his sharp edge, bravery and fearlessness exist in the hearts of every Imperial man.
He raised high the legendary artifact he got from the Hall of the Holy Hammer, the weapon gifted to Sigmar by the Dwarf High King, the warhammer Gale Maraz that carries the throne of the empire, and his tone seemed to return to the words he used to spread in Nunn. The fanaticism when Sigmar taught,
"Today, we are gathered here. Our common belief has brought us to this cold frozen land. The empire has been threatened by various dark forces, but it has never surrendered in two thousand years. We These Chaos believers need to know that the Empire can always drive them back to that lifeless wasteland, leaving them to linger there and not dare to extend their tentacles to the civilized world!" "For the Empire! For Sigma
! For Ulric!"
The fanatical words aroused everyone's emotions, and the golden and white glimmers of light covered everyone around him with Magnus as the center. He was so sacred that even if he only glanced at it, We can understand why Sigmar and Ulric chose him, allowing the pious to lead this divided country to unite again, and once again let everyone believe that the gods are still protecting the empire.
Everyone raised their weapons high in response to Magnus's pre-war encouragement, shouting fanatically for the empire. If this power is measured by a standard, everyone now has the buffing effect of twenty-four morale, as long as they are pious. Before the enemy falls, the Imperial people will never take even half a step back.
At this time, Imrik also began to feel his heart surging. No wonder Magnus is known as the greatest emperor after Sigmar. This ability to boost morale may be much stronger than that of Kagaba. Even he himself was affected by it. had an impact.
But this is not the key. Who will be responsible for the next eternal divine choice?
The emergence of this thought made Imrik look at the enemy's position, and found that a pair of fiery eyes were also looking here, but the focus was not on himself, but on Magnus beside him.
