Pivot of the Sky
Chapter 128 126, Beneath the Wall
Li Quade thought about it: “There are currently more than 200 clerics throughout the army, basically middle-class theologians, who can send 30 groups of 90 people to the city wall, each group must be protected by a samurai team. ”
Rhode-Dick laughed bitterly: "Where are so many premium scrolls available? Even if I emptied the Cape Temple inventory, you could send up to 25 sorcerers. That way, the attack and defense scrolls are still in place, but if each group has to have a spatially locked scroll, most of this is probably an intermediate scroll. ”
Amon nodded: "That's it, send 25 teams of 75 magicians to take the scroll to the city wall. If Enqi leads the assault team to suddenly defend, use the scroll to stop his first wave of impact, and the surrounding guards quickly converge. If not, Gilgamesh launched a full-scale offensive, which, if all of a sudden, would be enough to seriously damage his offensive forces. ”
Longteng photographed Rhode-Dick's shoulder: “Lord of the City is so far-sighted, the scroll was never the distribution equipment of the various regiments on the mainland, but you accumulated such a batch, and today it's very useful. ”
Next, they discussed the defense of the front, and Amon pointed at the sandbox: “After all, Cape Red Town is too small for cavalry and chariots to play a role if the army is crowded in the city. Once the enemy has been suddenly killed, the city will lose a lot of money trampling against each other, and a stone can kill many people. Two Legion Chiefs, what do you think we should do? ”
After listening to the tone of the commander-in-chief, Longteng and Blaze looked at the situation on the front and took an interesting initiative to get out of the castle. Amon divided the chariot and the rebird into two divisions, handed them over to the two Legion Chiefs, respectively, and laid a large battalion behind the line of defense on both sides of Red Cape Town, echoing Red Cape Town.
Amon ordered the erection of hard crossbows and guns on the walls of the city for a special city guard performance, which was almost arranged, which allowed the two great magicians to assemble the clergy formation to carry out healing and prayer magic for themselves, Gabriel and Medanzo. On that night, Ammond sat in the lobby, and countless gentle lights fell on him. The pain and sourness of the deep bone marrow gradually subsided inside and outside his body. It was the hands of the Great Nine Magicians.
In deep meditation, Amon somehow saw Maria again, and the tears of the gods on her staff scattered a golden glow. Her blessing of Isis is the gentlest comfort in Amon's heart.
……
On the same night, in the camp of the Uruk Legion, in the tallest and widest of the great skins of the animal, more than a dozen magicians formed a theological formation, Gilgamesh sat opposite Enchidu, and his staff was carrying out prayer and healing magic. The brilliance of all colors falls upon the Enlightenment, and his body is as bright as a god.
The golden bracelet has been removed and the right hand bracelet has split a big mouth. Gilgamesh sighed as she looked at it: “This bracelet is hard to repair, thank goodness I made two pairs, you can replace it. Snake Scale Armor is broken in few places and can be repaired in over a decade, you can continue to wear it to the battlefield. ”
Enqidu did not meditate with his eyes closed, carrying a huge glass of wine: “Without this armor and boxing bracelet, I killed Humbaba as well, totally free! ”
Gilgamesh shook his head gently: "There is a nail sharpener, why not? The power of your three punches today makes it clear to me that if you carry a giant shield and a wide sword that you commonly use, though powerful, it is not as flexible and quick. ”
Enqidu hated to say: “There was no great victory today because I did not complete the pre-arranged plan, and the third punch did not kill Commander Echo. I really didn't expect that Amon is so difficult, this time escaping from me counts as his fate, next time there will be no such good luck! ”
As Gilgamesh pondered, he was always used to squeezing his elongated eyes: “You and I are not the only strong men on the continent. Amon wanted to be just a wandering magician, but the goddess walked all the way, and it was not easy. Now he is the battlefield commander of Eku. There must be something extraordinary about him. Today's last move suddenly buried you under Stone Mountain, even I was frightened! ”
Enkido was furious: “The first time I saw him, he was with the goddess; the second time I saw him, he actually hurt me! ”
Gilgamesh smiled and said, “There are so many good women in the world, why do you like such a goddess? Killing Humbaba is enough if you want to prove yourself. Amon hurt you today, but you want to kill him first, then you're not seriously hurt, you don't have to be angry. Fighting between the two armies is not a struggle. If you encounter this person again, you must be careful not to give him the opportunity to use the means. ”
Eun-kyu said with some doubt, "Isn't he a great samurai? Why was he a magician again? What exactly is his technique today? ”
Gilgamesh squeezed his eyes again: “The simple way is to fill a space apparatus with stones and suddenly stack them all out. This man is indeed a great samurai. After a second awakening of power, he has reached the peak of his mastery of theological achievements and can actually use space magic instruments. ”
Eun-kyu all frowned: “Never heard of it. ”
Gilgamesh whispered, “Have you ever heard of a magician like me before? It is not surprising that there have been so many geniuses on the continent since ancient times, with perseverance, surprise and fortune. Some secret gods know that mortals can also explore, that he may just happen to be a lucky man with unique achievements. ”
Eun Qidu said, “I understand your temper. If you change the situation, you love to make friends with people like this. But now I have to kill him! ”
Gilgamesh stretched out his hand and patted Enqidu's shoulder: “We all wanted to kill him, but in the next battle, you must first avoid Amon's position, attack the weakness of the walls, and raise another matter. ”
Eun-kyu drank a large sip of wine and put the glass down. “What is it? ”
Gilgamesh replied: "Scroll! Once Nero, the most outstanding scroll maker on the continent, has been the main cleric in Cape Town State for more than 40 years. I'm afraid the number of offensive scrolls made by Nero has been deliberately preserved by both Dick City owners, father and son. If we throw it all out, it will cost us a great deal. I'm guessing Amon will use them to defend himself, so you have to be careful not to eat this loss. ”
Enqidu snorted coldly: “The scroll sent out nothing but all sorts of magic. Why have I ever been afraid? Besides, even with a scroll, you have to have a chance to make it! ”
Gilgamesh: “If you fight alone, I'm sure no magician has a chance to roll in front of you, but this is a big military mix-up, and I don't know who will suddenly use it, so be careful. ”
Enqidu: “Even with a bunch of premium scrolls, would I stand there foolishly and let them attack? Besides, how many magicians can they send with a scroll? Even if I did, how many magicians on every wall tried to kill me with scrolls? Don't you trust me, Lord of the City? ”
Gilgamesh laughed: "My brother, I trust you like I trust myself! To tell you this, I just hope you have the numbers in mind, which is why I let you avoid Amon when I attack the city. ”
……
One of Enqidu's boxing holsters was cracked and the snake scaler was slightly damaged. But the scorpion armor that Amon wore, after the fierce war, was broken and almost irreparable. Repairing such an armor is not as simple as replacing a broken scorpion shell, and you have to refine it again with magic.
Fortunately, the scorpion shell armor that Medanzo wore was not severely damaged. Amon removed his armor and replaced the complete scorpion shell with another armor. It took a few days to repair it, and finally he could wear it to the battlefield. This is the best armor in his hand. Not only is it able to defend against knife and gun splashes, but it also has excellent magical defense effects. Faced with an opponent as horrible as Enqidu, it is still vital to save his life, and everything needs to be prepared.
Ammon naturally wants to delay waiting for the Geber Regiment to arrive, and if Gilgamesh doesn't attack, he won't move, and has been patrolling the line for days. On that day, he climbed the walls with Grand Mage Li Quade and focused on checking the defensive positions of the team of magicians with scrolls, walking and chatting.
Li Kuide mentioned the legend of Enqidu, the first samurai on the mainland, which attracted a great deal of interest. The great magician obviously knew a lot about the inside, and some things Amon had never heard before.
Enchidu is not the Legion Commander of the Uruk Legion, nor is he a former Front Commander, nor is he a General of any Army Front. His position, like that of Medanzo, is merely that of the SS Captain of Gilgamesh, but his position is no less than that of any warrior on the mainland.
Gilgamesh, as a magician, was able to shoot a stunning arrow on the battlefield that day, not only because of his superior achievements, but also because of his natural power. Enkido was a wandering mountain hunter when he was a kid. Some people also said that he was a plateau giant and a natural magical force. He has been strong since the beginning of his life. He hunted animals empty-handed in the suburban mountains, had a grumpy temper, and had never lost a fight.
Gilgamesh teenagers were good hunters, and they ran into Enkido in the mountains, when they were all teenagers. It is said that Enqidu lost only once in his life. When he was a child, Gilgamesh beat him to death and beat him to the point of obedience. Later, the two became good friends. There are also legends that the two children fought more than wrestled for half a day, and they admired each other.
Gilgamesh, the son of the city owner, brought all the wandering enlightenment back to Uruk City State and sent a maid to look after Enkido, to teach him to eat and dress like a nobleman, to learn manners, and to ask his teacher to teach him to read and write. But Enqi is a natural samurai. He is not interested in reading at all, but he loves to learn martial arts.
Some say that he became a great samurai at the age of sixteen, and it is even more exaggerated that Enchidu beat a great samurai in Uruk City State at the age of fourteen. In short, he is definitely younger than Amon! And he became a Class IX samurai when he was 21! Enqidu is 34 years old, and Gilgamesh is two years younger than him, specifically in which year he became the Ninth Major Magician, nobody knows, they are the rare geniuses on the Tianjin continent.
After saying this, Li Quaid looked at Ammon and said: "After looking at the battle scene the other day, I had the feeling that Enqidu seemed to want to be careful on the battlefield against the Commander-in-Chief. I still have a question. If that's all right with you, Commander-in-Chief, can you tell me in private? ”
Amon hurried: "Thank you for your reminder! Honorable High Priest of the Empire, ask if you have any questions. ”
Li Quade laughed: “You used a magical space instrument, filled with boulders that suddenly fell, almost killed Eun Qidu. I'm staring at this hand, how did you do it? ”
Amon also laughed: "Although the space apparatus is precious, it's not uncommon for me to have one or two of them. The scroll left behind by Nero is strange, and some of them are probably just validating my thoughts, not for practical purposes. There is a scroll that manipulates the operation of the theological space, and I really admire the wonder of this master. ”
Lee Quaid said, “I almost forgot that you have Nero's relics in your hand, and many of the scrolls made by this master are really interesting. You are a great samurai and have succeeded in the second awakening of power. It is not impossible to use space manipulators if you work hard to cultivate your powers to the extreme. Only then, I'm afraid it will delay the practice of physics, human energy is limited after all. ”
Amon smiled modestly: "I will certainly remember what you said. ”
……
After a great battle without winning or losing, Ammon stayed put and allowed Gilgamesh to prepare for the attack. Pharaoh in the rear received reports of the war and the death of the Great Julian Magician, and sent messengers to Red Cape Town to join the army and encourage the soldiers to fight heroically. At the same time, the Messenger conveyed Pharaoh's message, asking Amon and his generals when they would strike out and defeat the Uruk legions.
While the intention of the messengers was to encourage and enjoin the army, asking such questions also implied that Pharaoh was slightly dissatisfied with the war on the front line. The Messenger also mentioned that, in his discussions with the crowd, Pharaoh had expressed his desire to oversee the front line and to see first-hand how the Egyptian army could repel what he called the strongest regiment on the continent.
Pharaoh would naturally inspire morale if he came to the front line himself, but Amon would rather not come. Pharaoh is here not only to split his energies to deal with and protect him, but also to get into trouble if Pharaoh is involved in commanding and mobilizing the army. Amon gave the envoy the image information of the Enlightenment Battlefield Clash recorded by the battlefield clergy, so that the envoy must show it to Pharaoh himself.
I don't know how Pharaoh felt after looking at that image of the divine record. In short, he didn't mention coming to the front line to oversee the war, and sent messengers to give the three great warriors Amon, Gabriel, and Medanzo, advising them to hold the line and not to make any rash moves until the Gabe Regiment arrives.
……
Ten days after the siege of the Uruk Legion in World War I, the Geb Legion was three days away from Red Cape Town and Gilgamesh did not give Amon time to wait.
Early this morning, there was a scout returning the action of the battalion of the Uruk Legion. Shortly after the sun rose, the black-pressed army had arrived outside Cape Red Town. In the battle to attack the city, although the party guarding the city has defensive advantages, the attacking party also has advantages to exploit, the walls of the city are dead and people are alive, and can flexibly open the battlefield to choose the weakness main attack.
The Uruk Legion unloaded the horses on the tank, loaded with bagged sandstone and placed at the front of the battlefield, not only to resist arrows, but also to push the tank close to the city wall in an attempt to fill a ramp that could be broken down. Behind the sandstone-mounted chariot, however, was a modified row of chariots on which a wooden pile was erected to open the archery tower, standing on the archery tower, which could be fired against the Ecu soldiers on the city wall.
In addition to this, the army of Uruk erected a tall platform with wooden scaffolding that was cut to twice the height of the city walls. Gilgamesh did not fly halfway through the sky with his magic, but still stuck a purple umbrella in the center of the tall platform, holding himself in a chair and standing beside Enkido.
Amon looked at Enqidu from a distance on the city floor, and his heart was stunned. Ten days ago in a fierce war, the great samurai could not have been unharmed, but today, in the battlefield, he was shaking in spirit, and his breath was completely at its peak, even more terrifying than 10 days ago.
Amon has just recovered the other day under the rotating treatment and prayer of the Divine Array presided over by two Great Nine Artists, and Gabrielle and Medanzo are unable to enter the battlefield today! The two great samurai are either injured or sick, or drained of their power and are unable to fight at this time. Amon can recover so quickly, he is already a bone of iron, and Enqi looks tougher than iron.
Amon saw Gilgamesh's battle sprint and stood on the tower, clamoring, “Why did the generals of the Uruk Corps come thousands of miles to die in an exotic town? Get back to your loved ones and continue to live in peace and happiness! ”
Gilgamesh laughed on the high floor: "Amon, aren't you a general but a speaker? You want to win with your tongue when the soldiers come down to town? If I don't retire, will you surrender? ”
After speaking, he stood up from the chair with a bow and arrow pointed straight at Amon. This time it was not a cold arrow. Everyone saw it clearly before the two armies, and the roar of thousands of bison roared in the wilderness. Amon did not respond with an arrow, and suddenly a huge light screen appeared on the city floor. In front of the screen, a piece of soot was rolled up, and the air in the soot condensed into an invisible armor.
This arrow from Gilgamesh scattered soot and shivered the light, but did not hit Amon. This time it was a battle to defend the city. In addition to the seventy-five magicians who were sent to the city wall, there were hundreds of magicians behind the city building. Together, they formed a defensive battle. There was a main battle of nine major magicians, and the momentum was long awaited. The Gilgamesh arrow, though powerful, could not have directly injured Amon at such a distance, and the magical defense of the front tower was the most robust.
