#1958 - Reinforcements arrived

Li Chengxi asked Alyssa to help purchase a lot of cannons and shells.

The shells of the 122mm energy-gathering cannon alone filled several large containers. When Li Chengxi handed them over to Viola, he had to toss and turn for most of the day before delivering them.

But for war, these shells are just a drop in the bucket. Li Chengxi is not a professional military personnel, and he doesn't know that once the high-intensity bombardment is carried out, the ammunition will be quickly consumed.

This problem has not been exposed in the past, purely because the cannon is mainly used to scare people, not to join the war sequence.

Now we really need artillery support, and the ammunition will definitely not be enough.

However, Zora's thinking about saving shells is actually unnecessary.

If it's not enough, tell me, anyway, the Swan is not far from Black Hand Port, and you can buy a lot of shells there, as much as you want.

This is the psychological work of believers. Zora thinks that the things given by Li Chengxi must be very precious and must be used sparingly.

So after a round of Xu Jin's barrage, the energy cannon went silent and did not continue to fire.

And the Xu Jin barrage also successfully blew up the charging enemy army, and at this time the army of Avarus really came into direct contact with this army.

The enemy also wore armor, but the style was different from that of all the countries in the Demon Realm. The weapons they used were swords and shields, but no one squatted there with a musket and started shooting.

Maybe the cost of muskets was not low for them, so they were not distributed to the big soldiers.

In close combat, it was the will that was fought. The killing efficiency in the era of cold weapons was very low. An army would often be defeated with 80% to 90% of its manpower. It was not that they could not fight, but that their morale was broken.

Needless to say, the army of Avarus was blessed with faith and was fearless. They knew very well that even if they died, they would participate in the holy war and would reach the divine domain of the Demon King God after death.

When people are not afraid of death, the power they burst out is extremely terrifying.

The opposing army also seemed to be in high spirits. Facing the Avarus army that shouted that the holy war would win, this group of human troops just waved their weapons in silence and coldly, like a quietly burning flame.

They had no slogans, but they had a firm will.

When the two wills collided, it was time for a head-on collision.

The horses neighed on the battlefield, the galloping six-legged mechas knocked over the front line, the javelins made of fine steel pierced the armor, and the soldiers' roars resounded through the sky.

There was no trick to fight on the flat ground. There seemed to be no obvious gap in the equipment and training levels of the two sides, and even the difference in the number of people was not particularly large.

The two sides collided with each other, and soon they became one in the other.

The archers released a rain of arrows from a slightly later position, and the other side also responded with color, and the blood instantly dyed the land red.

On this battlefield, Zora led a cavalry to charge back and forth, and the long sword in her hand was covered with blood so that the original color could not be seen.

A heavy voice sounded in Zora's ears, and she immediately jumped on the horse's back.

A six-legged walking mecha tried to knock over the cavalry led by Zora, but Zora jumped on it first.

The mecha was like a chariot that did not need horses to pull it, rushing around on the battlefield, and the soldiers on it kept shooting with muskets.

But they did not expect someone to jump on it directly.

Zora landed among the soldiers, and the blade kept flashing with a strange cold light. With blood splashing, Zora backhanded a sword and stabbed it into a glowing place on the back of the six-legged walking mecha.

This magic guide machine, which was almost the same size as a pickup truck, suddenly emitted black smoke, and its six legs softened as if they were knotted, and then fell to the ground.

Zora took the opportunity to jump out again and landed on the horse's back again.

In terms of combat power, Zora is much stronger than Viola. It is not a coincidence that she was chosen to be the leader of the Guards Knights, nor is it a compromise based on her background.

What's more, Zora is now a priest of the Demon King God, and an archbishop.

She returned to the horse and immediately raised the holy emblem:

"Your Majesty's guards, I call on your power!"

Two buzzing portals suddenly opened on the left and right sides, and a knight nearly three meters tall, wearing golden red armor, walked out.

"Kill all your enemies!"

"As you wish."

The guards who were called by the God Guards to guard the Utopia of the God Realm, holding long halberds, lightly swept the surrounding human soldiers and immediately broke into pieces and flew out.

At the same time, Zora and the priests behind her kept spreading instructions to their own people, and threw curses and debiffs at the enemy.

The priest is not a weak young man like a mage who is powerless, nor is he a pure nurse who can only stand behind and refresh the blood bar.

These guys are wearing heavy armor and holding long swords and simple weapons. Their ability to hold the line is no worse than that of pure warriors.

But you have a priest, and the other side has one too.

Rays of holy light lit up in the enemy camp. Although they did not call in the divine guards, they obviously began to remove the curse spread by Zora and buff their own people.

In addition, one after another fireballs, lightning, ice storms, and acid pools began to appear in Avarus's army. The other side actually had a magic unit.

This is actually the weak spot of Avarus. As the country was almost destroyed, the Avarus army, which was not good at magic, had no more magic power after this battle. There were only a few court magicians left, not to mention the formation of a complete magician unit.

Zora had to lead his priests to withdraw from the front line and concentrate on countering the enemy's spells, which also led to an increase in casualties of frontline soldiers.

It is indeed a little early to talk about the victory or defeat now, but the situation is gradually becoming unfavorable.

The army of Oak City is not far away, but they did not open the city gate to help.

It has been said long ago that the army of Subia has been scared. It is okay to defend the city, but it has lost the morale for field battles.

The sunlight blocked by the huge shadow was projected down. Zora lifted his mask and wiped the sweat on his forehead. Seeing the aerial platform in the distance before, it seemed to be floating above Oak City at this time.

The army of Subiya was not completely incompetent. They kept firing with crossbows and anti-aircraft arrows, but all the attacks hit the platform without causing more damage.

At this time, the crossbow could not raise its shooting angle higher, after all, it was not a professional anti-aircraft weapon.

The magicians in the city began to cast spells together, trying to use the flying shield spell to knock down the floating platform, but the effect was minimal, just making it shake.

Could it be that these guys were going to provide close-in fire support?

Or airdrop more troops?

No matter what the other side planned to do, the battle line was indeed becoming more and more unfavorable.
