Act 243 Alliance VIII

Cruz people still have courage——

The Cruzes have never lacked courage either. △↗，

In that darkest era, who was the first to stand up, lead the mortals, and raise the flag of resistance to the empire.

It's Cruz.

What is the Way of Golden Flame?

That is the indomitable struggle against oppression, against fate, and against life itself.

The Cruz people have always looked down on the Inir people, because the Faenzan people once bowed to the Miner people and served as slaves for four hundred years. Among the four empires, only the Cruz people can maintain this tradition passed down from generation to generation, as if inherited by blood. pride in it.

Because Cruz people will never bow their heads.

The light cavalry regained their backbone just because of Veronica's words. They raised their heads, chests, and drew their sabers. The blades shone like snow.

As if infected by the light cavalry, the noble coalition troops who behaved unsightly on the mound suddenly straightened their legs again, and the crooked team became orderly.

The random shouting among the crowd became lower.

Veronica shut her mouth and stopped speaking. She was the commander of the Blue Legion, the Blue Sword Master of the Cruz people. She had witnessed countless wars, swords and swords, life and death, and she had long been indifferent.

"teacher?"

"Go," the female regiment leader nodded: "Don't look back, as much as you can escape, bring the hope of the empire out, as long as there is still one Cruz person alive."

Little Pelo nodded firmly, turned around, took two steps towards the mound where the light cavalry regiment was, stopped again, turned back, and smiled cheerfully with his white teeth.

Those blue eyes seemed to contain the most dazzling brilliance.

The Legion is on the move.

The Cruzes finally have their last trump card in this war. But in fact, it was a desperate move, and the army of crystal clusters behind them was clearly visible. For the Cruz people, even if they broke through the blocking line in front of them, the long road to escape had just begun.

Countless people are destined to fall on this road, but those who survive. will become the hope of the empire.

The nobles mounted their horses one after another, and then drew their swords. Over the course of thousands of years, they had lost many things, including courage, glory, and noble responsibilities, but at this moment, they had to fight for themselves. Stay alive or die on the battlefield like a true knight.

The words of the female regiment leader seemed to have some magical effect.

No one complained, no one whispered, everyone understood their destiny, and everyone chose their own destiny.

People and horses gathered.

Veronica put Elise on the horse and held her in her arms. She turned the horse's head and drew her sword for the first time in this battle.

It is not the blue of the sky.

The sword has long been lost.

This sword was given to her by Brando. A fantasy-level magic sword called the 'Tower of Roses'. It was a gift from the Buga people to the fir collar. The young man gave it to her when he came to the Empire.

He said it was a gift given to the teacher’s wife for the teacher’s sake.

Although she didn't know what a mistress was, she could vaguely guess what it meant. She couldn't help but snorted softly, thinking about this damn brat.

And then there's that guy...

Veronica's thoughts seemed to go back to the time of her youth a long time ago. She had memories of fighting side by side with that man, winning glorious victories one after another under the command of His Excellency Marshal Darus.

Then came the break, for the Empire. For their different ideals and loyalties, they seem to be two separate roads that are getting further and further apart.

She couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Then, the sword in his hand was raised high.

"Cruz, attack!"

That seemed like a desperate statement.

It is also the final order.

But a long horn sound suddenly resounded through the entire battlefield, overwhelming all the sounds on the battlefield, overwhelming the neighing of men and horses, and the clash of metals.

The sound of hoofbeats was like thunder, and it overwhelmed the command that was heard from far away.

Everyone turned around and looked in a certain direction on the battlefield.

On the top of the mountain, a silver flag shines.

On the swallow-tail flag, the holy white scepter and the lion's mane were as dazzling as the dawn.

"Faenzan people!"

"Silver Cavalry Regiment!"

Since the first outbreak of saints in Otos, perhaps the descendants of the Cruz people have never thought that one day, the descendants of the Inir people, the paladins of Faenzan, will be on the battlefield to save them from despair. among.

But when did Faenzan's Holy Knights set out from Silver Horse City to arrive here at this moment to save the empire from destruction?

Perhaps thirteen hundred years ago, the Cruz people had the same mood when they saw the wind elf giant eagle knight appearing from the horizon on the Great Plains.

Only at this moment did Cruz's nobles finally recall that an era ago, they had been allies fighting side by side.

Despite hundreds or even hundreds of years of hatred and misunderstanding, despite generations or even dozens of generations of conspiracies and conflicts, when the descendants of the Cruz people were in dire straits, the descendants of the Inir people still came.

A roar came from the top of the mountain.

"Cruz people, do you still remember the sacred oath——?"

This roar spread throughout the battlefield through the power of magic.

Countless Cruz people actually burst into tears at this moment, in front of their former enemies. The knights raised their spears, pointed them high into the sky, put their left hands on their chests, and rushed toward the battlefield.

Let God witness, let Martha witness.

The covenant is still in effect.

A shadow first fell on the battlefield.

The Cruz people thought they could see silver horse knights flying in the sky, but they found that they were wrong, because what they saw was a dragon——

To be precise, it was a giant skeletal dragon.

Countless bone dragons swept in from both sides of the valley, like pale scythes. There were so many of them that they spread over the entire battlefield in an instant.

"This is……"

"What the hell?"

Everyone was stunned.

Before they had time to react, the most powerful undead creatures in the world had already flown over the battlefield, and hundreds of frost breaths swept across the army of crystal clusters.

In an instant. The army of crystal clusters blocking the Ordos Pass was in chaos.

The bone dragon did not stop, but continued to fly forward. Behind the Cruz people, a dense shadow suddenly appeared in the sky, and countless crystal clusters were falling from the clouds.

The main force of the crystal cluster army has arrived.

Countless bone dragons formed a standard arrow formation. Without stopping, he hit him head-on.

When Veronica saw this, it was too late to be surprised. She knew that the only chance on the battlefield had appeared. She squeezed the horse's belly tightly with her legs, and the man and the horse immediately rushed out to the battlefield.

"Cruz people!" She took the lead and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Charge——!"

"kill--!"

The knights woke up as if from a dream, and immediately shouted in unison and swept towards the front of the battlefield. The light cavalry regiment rolled down like an avalanche, instantly changing the situation on the entire battlefield, and the morale of the noble coalition was high. It turned into a torrent and followed closely.

The crystal cluster army on the front of the battlefield immediately began to adjust their formation, as if a powerful will was controlling them invisibly, causing these dull creatures to rush forward without fear of death, trying to drag the Cruz people here.

At this moment both sides understood.

Life and death will be separated at this moment.

But this is the time.

A bright sword light suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

The sword light was like the rising sun. It rose slowly in the dark night and exploded in an instant. In just an instant, thousands of meters in length and breadth were created. With just one slash of his sword, he cut through the entire battlefield.

That sword is bright. It was as fast as a bolt of lightning, but in the eyes of everyone, it was so slow that it seemed like time was flowing on the blade of the sword. It swept across the battlefield lightly, and then landed in the oncoming army of crystal clusters.

Even the Buga silver-robed wizards who are guiding the magic to bless the entire legion, the Holy See Valla, and the saint statue Sidney of the Lion Palace. Luo An, the leader of the Secret Law Walkers, and others couldn't help but raise their heads and look in this direction.

The only thirty-seven Flame Knights remaining on the battlefield couldn't help but tremble when they saw the light of this sword.

The pinnacle of the extreme realm, one step away from the sage.

This sword.

The whole army of crystal clusters was cut open, and there were thousands of crystal clusters. It turned into ashes under this sword.

A passage with a width of hundreds of meters was actually cut between the crystal cluster army. Under the moonlight, one man and one sword slowly passed through this passage as if entering an uninhabited land, and came to the Cruz people. In front of.

When Veronica saw that man, her heart was shocked.

"Mephisto..."

"Grey Sword Master?"

Mephistopheles stood alone on the battlefield, sheathing the sword with one hand and carrying the giant sword behind his back. On both sides of him, before the crystal cluster army had time to surge up again, the heavy knights of the Cruz people surged past.

The torrent of heavy knights separated from both sides of him, making the sword master seem to be swimming upstream in the turbulence, walking step by step in front of Veronica.

Only then did the legion commander see clearly that there was another person following Mephistopheles.

"Medphis?" She was stunned and quickly tightened the reins, but Elise in her arms suddenly exclaimed: "Sister!"

The vampire boy held the injured and unconscious knight's daughter in his arms. He tilted his head and smiled cutely, showing his white fangs: "Mistress, she was a little injured, but she's okay. It shouldn't be a big problem."

"hostess?"

Elise was so surprised that for a moment she even forgot to jump off the horse to care about her sister's injury, and actually froze on the horse.

…

"very good--"

Rodrigo then withdrew his gaze from the battlefield and nodded: "The Cruz people are at least decent. Compared with the nobles in the country who can't stand up to the wall, I am more willing to deal with real warriors, even if they were once enemies. .”

The knights laughed loudly, and the silver Pegasus was flapping its wings and landing on the top of the mountain. The knights took off their cloaks one by one, threw them aside, then got on their horses and drew their swords.

"Now it's our turn."

"Silver Horse Knights, attack!"
