Chapter 262 Friendship in War
"Magnus, the battle situation has changed and we need to retreat immediately!"
As soon as Imrik's voice fell, Minas Nir had already dived down and held the bloody man with his claws. The Devout then immediately flew in the direction of Teclis, intending for him to heal Magnus.
Magnus looked back at Isava Kuhl, who was still roaring on the ground. He neither sighed nor was angry, because he knew that one day there would be a battle of life and death between the two, but the coalition forces of order could not be defeated. At the cost of total annihilation.
"What happened?" The pious man's tone was not weak at all because of his physical injuries. Instead, he was full of perseverance. This battle may have been a transformation for him. In the past, he only relied on the protection of the two gods. Only in this way can I have this kind of power, but now my mentality has also changed and I have become more confident.
"Look behind." Imrik did not try to let Lao Mi use magic to break through Magnus's protective layer of divine power to convey the message. The precise nature of Sigma's divine power would allow him to see through the black mist behind.
After hearing this, Magnus turned his head and looked at the extremely normal sky, but in an instant, he already understood why Imrik was so anxious. If the corrupted fortress arrived here, besides Some people who are strong enough can escape, but everyone else has to die here.
"We need to distance ourselves from it and then find a way to solve it."
After a moment, he made a judgment on the distance, which was exactly the same as Imrik's. "At least 150 kilometers, we need to rest for two days. time."
After Minasnir threw Magnus towards Teclis, he turned around and started fighting with the enemy. It finally knew that the enemy's flying behemoths were fewer than expected in this war. The reason is that those Chaos Demonic Dragons are all entrenched in the mobile fortress, and only a few manticores appear on the battlefield.
Teclis, who stayed where he was, didn't seem to notice that a person was thrown beside him, and he still looked at the rear of the Chaos army with a gloomy face.
The Archmage saw through the black mist, but what followed was how to solve this huge target. There were multiple projects in the White Tower of Hos to study how to solve it. After a lot of discussion, at least four people were needed. The archmage jointly used siege-level magic to restrain it in place, and then extracted the leyline energy to blast it, which could paralyze it.
Now, apart from himself, no one in Kislev knows siege magic. Davian is a magic swordsman who specializes in combat spells. In addition, the learning time is too short, so Alfonso has not exposed him to this aspect at all. Knowledge, and the Flame Tower Mage won't be of much use where the Winds of Aksha are thin.
He took a deep breath, and the only option was to try to get the Savri mage group to cooperate with this siege magic. Although this may cause the wind of magic to flow into the body and have side effects, it is better than losing this great holy war.
After roughly thinking about the idea, I used the Moon Staff to cast a regeneration spell on Magnus. Whether it is using magic to paralyze the mobile fortress or letting people enter it and blast it, Magnus's role is extremely important. He needs to hold off the Everchosen.
After Magnus raised his head slightly to express his gratitude, he immediately began to roar for people to retreat. As the elite knights acted as a cover, the main mobile group was the dwarves. If the army of 5,000 people and the Supreme King were left here, then the Eternal Peak would will exist in name only.
Although I don’t know why the pious man’s tone was so urgent, the well-trained imperial soldiers began to evacuate in an orderly manner, and the knights began to fight the enemy on the spot. The charging White Wolf Knights had returned to their original place, and under the guidance of Grand Master Christ Under the leadership of husband, they bought time for the transfer of infantry.
.........
"Your Majesty, Magnus asked us to retreat." The voice of the Eternal Hammer Guards interrupted the movements of the High King who was fighting on the throne of power.
After the High King cut a troll in half with the Ax of Grimnir, he immediately asked what was going on. The dragon princes had just come to notify them of the retreat, but the dwarves all thought it was farting. The situation was great. In case of retreat? Only these pointed ears can do that.
"A cursed city is attacking from not far away." The Eternal Hammer gave the order to retreat. He was also very confused about this cursed city. Which city was attacking from not far away, and how many more were there. Time, this is completely inconsistent with the basic rules of military command that require conciseness, clarity, and accurate targeting. But the High King's thinking was obviously much more flexible than his. At first, he lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then he seemed to understand what the order meant. He immediately stood up from the throne of power and said, "Retreat immediately. The Eternal Hammer Guards are responsible for breaking up the rear.
" , others follow the humans and leave here, quickly!" The rough voice of the Supreme King stunned everyone.
Thorgrin, who was on the front line fighting the enemy, retreated. His white beard was already covered with blood, and the wings on his helmet were cut off in half. He immediately asked what happened.
The High King looked solemnly at the giant dragon above his head that was still spitting out flames, and slowly told what he had guessed, "Plaag has become a cursed city and is constantly approaching here. These dragon princes have not Alarmist."
These words made everyone surprised, even fearful, a mobile city? The pragmatic dwarves have never imagined such a thing, because no mobile city is possible from an engineering or magical perspective.
"Let Agrim retreat, he cannot die here!" The High King immediately ordered people to call back the War Undertaker who was still fighting in a bloody battle. He was not only a butcher, but also a prince. If he died here, then The line of the Butcher King will be extinct, and only a branch of the Dragon Beard clan can inherit the throne.
Based on his understanding of his old friend Kazaon, if his only heir died, the High King believed that he would definitely choose to go north alone to seek revenge on Chaos, and would not stop until his death.
The High King's order began to take effect. Even though they thought this mobile city was a bit unbelievable, they still chose to obey. The Knights of the Burning Heart and the Guards of the Hammer of Eternity began to break up, and the dragon's flames stopped a large number of enemies for them, alleviating the situation. Otherwise, with the dwarves' marching speed, even if they retreat at a high speed, they will be quickly overtaken by the enemy.
The personnel were retreating one after another, but the soldiers responsible for staying behind were bearing the greatest pressure.
Imric had left Minasnir, leaving the old man to fight alone, while he and Magnus began to stand side by side among the crowd.
After Gal Maraz shattered the enemy's body, a spear immediately guarded Magnus's unprotected flank, and then flames poured out to burn the weak enemies to death.
The key to being unparalleled lies in this double character. There are always things that are easy to miss in a person, and this requires a suitable person to cover up the shortcomings.
Finally, after killing an unknown number of enemies and leaving the entire army, Imrik and Magnus stood back to each other, looking at the Chaos army that surrounded them. The huge noise was already clear, and the thick layer of black mist dispersed, revealing the terrifying appearance to the mortal world without any concealment.
"How about it, can we continue to fight? If it doesn't work, just withdraw. I won't laugh at you." Even in this situation of being surrounded by people, Imrik still had the leisure to joke with the people behind him and fight. How can you always look sad? You must smile.
"Of course, if you can't hold on any longer, I can also cover your retreat." A smile began to appear on Magnus' serious face. Nothing is more reassuring than having a comrade beside you in a desperate situation. .
"Then come on!"
The warrior holding the spear and the priest holding the warhammer began to charge towards the enemy side by side. No one can see their fearless look, but this scene may be remembered by the two of them for a long time until the end of their lives.
