South of Dannyvirk Fortress.
Overnight, the Northern Horn Army launched no less than thirteen assaults of varying sizes against the Imperial Knights' positions in the south.
Broken axes and armor fragments were scattered all over the ground. The blood even melted the frozen soil around the battlefield, and broken corpses were everywhere.
Eleanor stood on the wall of the camp, looking at the Danevilk Fortress in the distance, casting a huge silhouette in the cold wind of the night.
Many Imperial Knight Commanders have already found her and told her that they must capture the Dannevilk Fortress, otherwise they will not be able to threaten the enemy's supply lines, and the war will become a bloody tug-of-war.
However, the trouble was that there were two demigods of the Northern Horn Army stationed in the fortress. They knew the power of Eleanor's holy sword, and every time she tried to lead her troops into the fortress, one of them would deliberately entangle her and fight with her, while the other would desperately kill the knights attacking the city, forcing Eleanor to use her holy sword to protect the imperial knights.
As for Sidlifa, she took another demigod and attacked the camp of the Imperial Knights from behind. The Knights also had two demigods, but Sidlifa fought one against two, leaving the other demigod to destroy the Knights' manpower, forcing Eleanor to quickly return for support.
To put it bluntly, it was still taking advantage of Eleanor's character of caring for her subordinates and not liking to sacrifice. If it was someone like Sidlifa, you can just kill my people and attack my camp, I will concentrate on killing you first, and my ashes will be scattered... Sacrificing some people in exchange for time to kill all the opponent's demigods with the holy sword, and the opponent will not be able to fight.
After looking at the fortress for a while, Eleanor turned back to the camp and began to inspect the condition of the wounded.
Due to the large number of power armors equipped, the imperial knights can barely match the extraordinary army on the other side in terms of individual quality. However, the power armor can prevent physical damage, but it cannot prevent the low temperature transmitted from the weapons.
After a long and fierce battle, many imperial knights suffered frostbite. In severe cases, their limbs even became purple and local tissues completely necrotic, making it impossible for them to continue fighting.
The sudden termination of cooperation by the Holy See caused almost all military chaplains to leave, which was an even more serious blow to the Imperial Knights.
"Grandmaster." Demigod Wolfgang greeted Eleanor. He was hit by Sidlifary's [Nirvana] in the battle yesterday, but he activated the conceptualization of his body in time to avoid being killed instantly.
However, the real power of the Law of Extinction lies in that its damage can transcend the physical body and spread to the concept, so that it cannot be conceptualized with the body, and the damage is converted into spiritual consumption. Therefore, the current condition of this demigod is not very good. The spiritual limit has been reduced due to the damage to the concept, and his demeanor is a little sluggish.
The latter nodded and looked at the wounded knights in the camp.
The wounded knights struggled to stand up, half-knelt on one knee, leaned on their swords with both hands, and swore an oath to Eleanor:
"I solemnly swear here: I will be loyal to Grand Master Sophie for life and maintain supreme loyalty to the Empire; I will help the people, rescue the wounded, and protect my companions. No matter how difficult or tough it is, I will not go against my heart. God will bear witness to this."
