Chapter 298 148 God Will Protect Us
Chapter 298 -148- God will protect us
The wailing horns gradually became louder, and the silver light lit up on the battlefield.
As the accompanying wizard chanted, the inscriptions on the regular armor of the Bolde-Violet Extraordinary lit up one after another.
"Hold the shield!"
The commanding noble shouted loudly.
The regular soldiers wearing full armor raised their shields one after another, and the inscriptions on the shields also lit up, and finally a honeycomb-shaped magic shield was outlined above the army.
Castel's arrows fell like raindrops, and the oars and cannons in the river roared.
However, except for the enchanted arrows used by those extraordinary people or the expensive magic-breaking stone bullets, conventional attacks could hardly cause damage to the activated magic army.
The two sides soon engaged in battle on the bridge, and as soon as they engaged in battle, it was a one-sided situation.
The nobles who led the Castel soldiers to defend the bridge were almost instantly engulfed by the brilliance of the magic army formation. The silver army formation was like a sharp steel knife, easily tearing apart Castel's line and penetrating the bridge.
Charlotte, who was watching the battle from a high tower in North Port, saw it more clearly.
After the enemy's magic array was deployed, the North Port Bridge, which had been tug-of-war between the two sides for a long time, was captured by the enemy at a speed of one meter per second, and the soldiers on Castel's side were either engulfed by the attacking extraordinary army formation or squeezed off the bridge.
"My Lord Earl, Baron Somier sent a message that the North Port Bridge can no longer be defended!"
"My Lord Earl, Viscount Roman-Fore sent a message that the fleet's magic-breaking ammunition is empty. My Lord Viscount suggested destroying the North Port Bridge to prevent the enemy from crossing the river!"
"My Lord Earl..."
All kinds of bad news came one after another, and the situation deteriorated rapidly.
Charlotte also noticed that the magic shield covering the entire North Port was becoming increasingly shaky under the fire of the coalition fleet, and it seemed that it could be destroyed at any time.
"My Lord Earl..."
Viscount Ryan-Castell looked solemnly at the direction of the North Port Bridge and couldn't help saying:
"Destroy the bridge. We must not let the extraordinary people cross the river. Once they successfully cross the river, the enemy's stone cannons will also be transferred to the north bank, and North Port will fall into a more dangerous situation..."
"My Lord Earl, please order the bridge to be destroyed! Once they successfully control and open the defensive magic, it will be difficult for us to do it!"
"Yes, the North Port Bridge can be rebuilt later, but North Port must not fall!"
Other nobles also persuaded.
Charlotte slowly retracted her gaze and shook her head gently:
"No, the North Port Bridge is the key to our counterattack and cannot be destroyed."
"My Lord Earl!"
The nobles became anxious:
"If we can't even defend it, how can we talk about counterattack?"
"Yes, there are too many extraordinary preparations in Boulder, and we can't resist them at all..."
Viscount Ryan-Castell also sighed:
"My Lord Earl, although the magic defense system of North Port is powerful, it can only withstand a limited amount. In order to protect the urban area, our shield is almost reaching its limit. If we continue to let the enemy advance, the consequences will be unimaginable..."
As he said, he looked at Charlotte deeply and said respectfully:
"I believe you have considered it and hope to counterattack, but what we need to consider now is how to defend it."
"The strength of the spell shield and the maintainer 's power. Although President Leighton is a senior Silver Moon Mage, it is still too difficult to maintain such a large-scale magic defense. "
"Our Castel is no longer the Castel with the Blazing Sun. Perhaps your father can easily support the shield to protect civilians in the Star-Moon War, but now... the times are different."
"Lord Earl, the magic power of our Castel is no longer as good as before. In order to win, sometimes we must make some sacrifices..."
After listening to the old viscount's words, Charlotte's heart moved slightly:
"Sir Ryan-Castell, what do you mean..."
Viscount Ryan-Castell gritted his teeth and said:
"Destroy the North Port Bridge, lift the protection of the urban area, and only maintain the magic protection of the Earl's Mansion and the fortress, and delay the time of holding on as much as possible!"
Charlotte frowned slightly.
She was about to answer, but suddenly heard a sound like glass cracking in the sky.
Charlotte looked up and saw that the magic shield covering the North Port suddenly became more and more unstable, and some weak places even began to become illusory.
The bombardment of the principality fleet continued.
Under Charlotte's slightly focused gaze, some stone bullets even successfully penetrated the protection of the shield and fell into the city of Beigang.
A huge roar was heard, and thick smoke rose in the city, and people's screams of fear could be heard from time to time.
Suddenly, another guard hurried over, followed by two guards, supporting a pale-faced magic apprentice.
"Lord Earl! There is an emergency report from the magic tower!"
The guard said quickly.
Charlotte looked at the apprentice:
"What happened?"
"Lord Earl... Lord, Lord Leighton is about to fail, the magic shield... is... reaching its limit..."
After hearing the apprentice's words, the surrounding nobles changed color.
"Lord Earl! Can't delay any longer!"
Viscount Ryan-Castell shouted.
Charlotte remained silent.
"Lord Earl!"
The old viscount repeated anxiously.
Charlotte then raised her head and looked at the illusory magic shield in the sky. She suddenly said:
"Sir Len-Castell, you just said... my father once maintained a defensive magic covering the entire North Port for a long time during the Star-Moon War?"
The old viscount was stunned for a moment and answered subconsciously:
"Yes."
Charlotte was thoughtful.
After a few breaths, she suddenly raised her head and said directly to the guard:
"Come on, take me to the Mage Tower."
The guards and nobles were all stunned, and looking at the girl's serious and beautiful profile, the old viscount thought of something and his expression changed suddenly:
"Lord Earl, you...you don't want to control the magic defense system yourself, do you?"
"Yes, your father did maintain the defense system covering the entire North Port for a long time, but your father is Chiyang! It's different!"
"You are indeed growing rapidly and have extraordinary talents, but you are still Silver Moon now!"
"The mental strength and magic power of Chiyang's strongmen are far beyond ordinary extraordinary people. That is not a gap that can be made up by numbers. You can't do it, and it is likely to be life-threatening!"
"You..."
Charlotte suddenly raised her hand and stopped him from speaking.
She raised her green index finger to her lips, showing a soft and beautiful smile, and whispered:
"How do you know if you don't try?"
As she spoke, she raised her head and devoutly drew a cross on her chest:
"It's not just the Third Prince who is fighting us, but also the Blood Demon Cult that secretly supports him behind the scenes..."
"I believe that as long as we have a pious heart, the gods... will protect us and defeat evil."
Sorry, there was too much work in the morning, and I didn't have time to finish it until now.
