When life and death are at stake, one of the most frightening things is that the morale of the army is shaken. The army that was originally several times more powerful than the enemy is likely to cause a chain reaction due to a small retreat, which will eventually lead to an avalanche-like rout of the entire army.
Fortunately, this time, although the people in the caravan who were urgently called down to join the battle were scared, they did not flee for the sake of their relatives in the carriage behind them. They quickly gathered the carriages that were about to be abandoned to form a simple defense. After the fortifications were completed, the black tide of the undead had already surged over.
There seemed to be hundreds of ghouls in large numbers. Although these undead still maintained their distorted human form, they climbed quickly like wild beasts. Their bloody mouths were aimed at the people standing behind the carriage. People's instinctive desire for fresh meat and blood makes the ghouls eager to tear apart the living people in front of them immediately.
The bows and arrows had been exhausted along the way, and the guards only carried some daggers and shields. Fortunately, there were still some weapons in the cargo transported by the convoy this time. Although a lot of them were lost just now, some were still retained. Can be distributed to the general public.
There are spears, daggers, maces, and all kinds of weapons on the human side, but their morale is obviously not as good as that of the undead who have no "morale" attribute at all. After all, many of them are ordinary people, and they have no experience in fighting the undead. , the only thing is courage.
"We will take the lead, and we will leave it to you to deal with the fish that slip through the net."
Golden light flashed, and two gold saints and three other silver saints who had already put on holy clothes appeared in front of everyone. The gorgeous holy clothes immediately attracted everyone's attention, although they did not know that this golden armor Where did it come from, but some people knew very well that the armor in front of them was not the kind of flashy decoration, but the powerful equipment that was rumored to be made by master-level or even master-level blacksmiths and weapon makers.
Some people looked at the five saints in stunned silence: "Who are you?"
"Just think of it as a hero passing by." Kaludia, a Scorpio, snapped his fingers and crossed the carriage to stand at the front.
The calm and cautious El Cid is not as active in character as Kalludia: "Be careful and don't get caught by these undead, otherwise it will be a troublesome thing to be infected with the plague."
"Don't worry, don't worry~ After all, I finally cured the disease, but I still want to live a little longer."
After the heart disease has been treated. Kaludia's mood has also become better. Compared with the past, where she was always eager to burn her life impatiently and eager to leave a mark of her existence in the world, Kalludia's smile now looks brighter. too much. Everything is full of love and hope for life.
The ghouls at the front have rushed to a place less than a hundred meters away from the crowd. They are running as fast as cheetahs and their own weight. They are like giant crossbow arrows being launched. If they are hit head-on, I'm afraid even a soldier wearing steel armor would be seriously injured in an instant.
Can the Holy Cloth withstand this impact? The answer is unknown. Besides, the Saints don't want to do this experiment.
Cepheus Silver Saint Alubioni, in the original book, is the master of Andromeda Shun among the Bronze Five. He was born on Fairy Island and has combat power that can rival the Gold Saint. In the animated version, Alubioni once faced the fake Milo, the Scorpio Golden Saint sent by the Pope, was able to compete with him. In the end, Milo was defeated by the Pisces Golden Saint Abrodi with the plot of the Royal Demon Palace Rose.
Like his apprentice Shun, Alubioni of Cepheus is also accustomed to using chains as combat weapons. Before the ghoul approached, the two chains in Alubioni's hands had quickly circled on the ground like a nebula. Be prepared for defense.
"Here we come, everyone, pay attention!" Elshid, who was leading the way, said in a deep voice.
The moment the ghoul pounced, Alubioni immediately launched the chain formation, as if it was alive. The chain quickly changed to form a huge spider web that blocked the way forward for the ghouls. The swarms of ghouls swarmed into each other like insects falling into the web.
Uh-huh┉┉
The huge impact made Alubioni couldn't help but take a few steps back. The power coming from the chain net even made his hands and jaws hurt. Looking at the densely packed ghouls packed into the chains, Cepheus Silver The Saint gritted his teeth and quickly contracted the chain, intending to crush all the captured ghouls.
However, although these ghouls have no brains, their fighting instincts are very strong. Upon noticing the Silver Saint's plan, the group of ghouls immediately dispersed and climbed along the chains like agile monkeys. There were only a few ghouls. Before he could escape in time, Alubioni used the chains of the Cepheus Saint Cloth to twist him into two pieces.
Even if they were cut off at the waist, these ghouls who fell to the ground still maintained their amazing fighting power, and crawled straight over regardless of the intestines that slipped from the wounds.
"Good job~Leave this to me."
"Excuse me, Your Excellency El Cid!"
El Cid rushed forward immediately. The holy sword in his hand has been swung out again and again. Alubioni was not fond of fighting. He did not expect to destroy all these undead in one blow at first. He used chains to block them first to prevent these ghouls from breaking through the defense line with brute force.
In front of the seemingly indestructible holy sword, even the ghoul's hardened skin cannot stop it. Each ray of golden light flashed past the ghoul's broken limbs and flew into the sky. In less than a minute, the Capricorn Golden Saint killed six ghouls. Although he achieved a record worth being proud of, But there was no joy in El Cid's heart.
Although these ghouls do not feel pain and are not afraid of death, they have a certain degree of intelligence. It was not a brutal head-on confrontation with El Cid. Some ghouls kept leaping up and climbing on the trees on both sides of the road, and then waited for an opening to fall from the sky to launch a fatal high-altitude attack on El Cid, giving people a sense of security. It feels like you are facing an organized and coordinated wolf pack.
Facing these undead, El Cid couldn't help but frown. Some of the undead who were alone had such a high degree of cooperation ability. Wouldn't those undead who attacked in large numbers on the frontal battlefield be even more terrifying? Moreover, those killed by the undead would become transformed. Becoming a member of the undead, this snowball-like method of increasing the number of people, the people of this land must have made a lot of sacrifices when resisting the undead.
A flash of anger flashed in El Cid's eyes, and he waved the holy sword quickly. The upright and righteous Golden Saint had made up his mind to eliminate all the undead in front of him, otherwise these undead would definitely still be there. To attack other innocent people, they must not be allowed to continue spreading death in this world.
"Go back to the darkness. The dead should not exist in this world!!"
With a loud roar, El Cid's small universe gradually burned, and the light of the holy sword became even more dazzling. Every ghoul wherever it went was chopped into pieces.
Looked at El Cid who was deep in the enemy's formation. Kaludia couldn't help but said helplessly: "It's really here again. It's so lonely every time. Please cooperate with us a little."
In actual combat, the Capricorn Golden Saint El Cid is almost a lone wolf. His fighting methods are always brutal and brutal, with no unnecessary moves. That fierce sword energy is unmatched by anyone. For this reason, El Cid rarely cooperates with others. It can also be said that there are basically no saints who can cooperate with him.
Suddenly Kaludia turned around, and the scarlet poisonous needle shot from the head of a ghoul and penetrated the spine of the entire body. The undead on the ground twisted, and the blue soul fire in his eyes was quickly extinguished. .
"Thank you for rescuing Lord Kalutia."
Argoro, the Silver Saint of Perseus, breathed a sigh of relief after being rescued. He had just hit a ghoul and was attacked from behind by another one. Fortunately, the claws of the ghoul that caught him were only on the chest of the holy suit. There were only four scratches left on the armor, but recalling the sharp scratching sound made by the sharp claws on the holy clothes just now, Arugolo still felt a little frightened.
"Be careful. Don't learn the bad habit of that guy just now and rush into the enemy camp alone."
In the absence of El Cid, the command obviously fell to Kaludia. Under the full resistance of the Saints, the attacking ghouls were dispersed. Most of the ghouls were fighting with the Saints, and only a few could Breaking through Cepheus's chain defense and rushing to the rear, these lone ghouls could no longer pose a threat to the guards' fortifications, and soon turned into pieces of meat that could not move under the sword and axe.
The invisible sword energy kills the enemy, and the golden light waves penetrate everything like arrows. The chains, which are both offensive and defensive, move as if they are alive, turning the strings into sharp blades and tearing apart the enemies amidst the beautiful sound of the piano. And the power to hit a ghoul hard with just his fists.
Seeing the war situation gradually improving, the guards couldn't help but be curious about the identities of the five hitchhikers while cheering. Such powerful warriors could never be unknown ordinary people. With their strength, any country would be able to defeat them. Only if you are willing to pay a lot of money to hire them. And both the strange armor and the incomprehensible martial arts are unheard of. Could it be that they are┉┉
"They must be paladins who believe in the Supreme God."
"Paladin! Really?"
"Hmm~ I heard that devout paladins who believe in gods will be given magical powers by the gods. They must be paladins, so they have these strange and powerful powers."
"Oh! Thank you to the Supreme God, thank you righteous paladins!!"
Hearing the cheers from behind and more and more guards and civilians rushing out from the defense line to assist him and others in fighting, Kalludia and the three Silver Saints smiled helplessly. These people seemed to have made a mistake. What. But let’s not mention it at this time, the paladin who serves the gods~ Well! In some respects, the Saints are indeed warriors who serve the gods. This is correct. As long as the so-called five supreme gods and Holy Warriors are also gods and warriors who fight for justice and peace, then the credit will be given to It's okay on their heads.
After all, Saints don't fight with fists just to steal their reputation.
At this time, the ghouls who were still attacking relentlessly began to retreat quickly as if they had received some order. Caludia suddenly frowned. The Golden Saint did not think that these undead would have such fear. kind of feeling.
Thinking of El Cid, who had disappeared into the enemy formation before, Kalludia suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart: "Let's go, let's catch up." (~^~)
