Empire of Shadows

Chapter 113: The highest realm of attribute restraint

Views:

When everyone was puzzled as to why I suddenly released this strange magic without any killing power, I slowed down the troops in time when the fog enveloped the enemy's heavy cavalry.

Under the puzzled eyes of the commander of the East Continental Allied Forces and Feng Ya of the Fire Phoenix Legion, those half-baked military magicians began their next step. Dozens of light and fire mixed magic chain lightnings directly struck the foggy area. . . . .

This action almost drew the ridicule of all those who had some knowledge of magic on the battlefield. In their eyes, using fog in war could only be used to confuse the enemy and hide oneself, and it had no practical significance at all. And my soldiers used fog magic, and attacked aimlessly without any information about the enemy and accurate targets, which was also regarded as an idiotic act by them.

In everyone's eyes, even in a few seconds, the heavy cavalry that survived in the fog would rush out quickly and completely submerge my archer cavalry in the shortest possible time. In the eyes of ordinary people, as long as the heavy cavalry rushed into my team, then only 2,000 heavy cavalry would be enough to completely wipe out my entire division. . . . .

Time seemed to have almost frozen. My army stopped advancing dozens of meters outside the fog. All the soldiers had replaced their longbows with powerful crossbows that could quickly fire four arrows, and they were eyeing the foggy area covetously.

However, the heavy cavalry division in the fog had become silent at this time, not even the sound of horses neighing could be heard. . . . .

Faced with this suddenly extremely strange situation, the commander of the East Continental Allied Forces could not help but show an extremely strange expression. Feng Ya, who had been paying attention to the development of the situation in the military camp, was also very nervous at this time.

What was going on? Did the 6th Division of the Flame Legion win? Or were the heavy cavalry troops in the fog slowly approaching this army that had brought new tactics and terrifying weapons to today's battle, trying to assault or destroy them

The answer to the mystery was soon revealed. Looking at the fog that had not dispersed for a long time, I couldn't help but lose my confidence. In the end, I ordered the soldiers in front to use small wind magic to blow away the fog here.

After a gust of strong wind, a scene that shocked almost everyone appeared in front of everyone. In the original foggy area, no one could stand there alive. No, no living creature could stand there. As far as the eye could see, the entire area covered by the fog was filled with the bodies of the cavalrymen and their horses, many of which were even steaming. . . . . .

At this time, the morning sun had begun to shine on the earth. In this summer morning, everyone shuddered involuntarily at the pile of corpses. A terrifying and gloomy feeling enveloped everyone. Including the soldiers who personally attacked the heavy cavalry. They also tightly grasped the magic scrolls in their hands, feeling the coldness all over their bodies.

What everyone couldn't imagine was that, logically speaking, although the armored heavy cavalry had low immunity to magic, it was impossible for thousands of cavalry troops to be killed by dozens of lightning bolts. If the heavy cavalry was so useless, there would be no heavy cavalry in the world, or even heavy infantry.

But the facts are here, so what kind of explanation is this? In fact, it is very simple. It is the fog magic that works. The thick fog covers all the heavy cavalry and moisturizes the exposed parts of their skin.

As we all know, if a person's skin is dry, then the possibility of him being electrocuted will be much smaller; if a person is wet, then the possibility of him being electrocuted at the same voltage will be at least several times greater. This is actually because the conductivity of human skin is greatly increased after being wet. And these unfortunate heavy cavalrymen of the East Continent also became the first victims of my test of war magic. . . . . .

“Matthew, immediately order the troops to begin attacking the heavy infantry in front of the Fire Phoenix Legion... Matthew... Matthew..." He looked at the scene in front of him with great satisfaction, and was also happy that he could flexibly apply his previous knowledge.

"Um...ah! What? Yes, sir, I will go to command the troops immediately..." Matthew, who was also shocked by the scene in front of him, finally came to his senses after I shouted at him several times, and spurred his horse to run towards the messenger who was also in a daze.

Then, the soldiers of the 6th Division of the Flame Corps, who had regained consciousness, rushed towards the East Continent Heavy Infantry Division, whose legs were already shaking. Now, this East Continent Heavy Infantry Division has been caught in a dilemma. If they advance, they will be facing the three divisions of the Fire Phoenix Corps, and if they retreat, it will be even more terrifying. Imagining the destruction of the heavy cavalry division just now, this heavy infantry division has lost any belief in victory. Now their minds are the same as the imperial army that fled from Red Moon City a few hours ago, without the slightest will and determination to fight. . . . . .

"Forward, keep moving forward... The General Staff ordered me to continue to follow the steps just now. I will make their heavy infantry division suffer the same fate..." Facing the heavy infantry division that was a wolf just now but now like a flock of sheep, I gave orders almost in a mocking mood.

However, I no longer have the chance to see such a perfect and economical battle. 50 soldiers, 50 low-level protective magic, 50 mists, 50 chain lightning, or a dozen tornado magic scrolls. This cost only less than 200 gold coins for me, but it completely destroyed a heavy infantry division with equipment worth more than one million gold coins. I am of course very willing to accept such a cost-effective deal.

The heavy infantry division in front, when they saw the 50 light cavalrymen carrying a small box on their backs quickly breaking out from the longbow cavalry, almost all of them scattered, and many even abandoned their weapons and heavy armor, and rushed directly to their central army. . . . .

I will become a VIP in the next chapter. I apologize to everyone and hope that you will continue to support me.

I need to ask the editor tomorrow if I can get free VIP publication. Hey, I will ask the editor today^0^
