Sword of Daybreaker

The

In the early morning, there is still a long time before the sun rises. Even the hazy sky has not appeared above the hills in the east. The starry sky, which is slightly dimmer than before, covers the land in the border area, and the night falls, The dark blue sky spread from the high wall of Winterwolf Castle to the Cecil Longwind Fortress.

Knights in black helmets and black armor gathered neatly under the night, the swords were sheathed, the flags were converged, and the war horses trained and controlled by magic medicine and magic magic magic spells stood quietly like fuse together with Knights, There was no noise-the cold wind blew across the earth, and the plain seemed to gather thousands of sculptures made of steel, silent and solemn.

A tall silhouette riding a warhorse made a half circle from the rear of the team, and back to the front of Knight Corps. His black steel armor appeared deeper and thicker under starlight, and from that face covering the entire face A low and majestic voice came from Jia Nei –

Unfortunately, it is not human language.

It’s a kind of vague, grotesque sound like countless people muttering together, sounding send cold shivers down one’s spine, but with some kind of solemn rhythm like a prayer.

The black armor’s commander raised his arm high in front of Knight Corps. His vague terrifying voice seemed to inspire the entire team. Knights raised their arms in the same way, but none of them shouted—they were strict. In this way, he expressed his fighting intent to the commander in this way, and the commander was obviously quite satisfied with it.

He was nodded, turned his horse’s head, and waved his long sword towards the dark and deep plain in the distance. The Knights began to march one by one, and the whole team was like a sudden surge of wheat waves, one after another. Started to accelerate towards the distance, and while traveling, the flag bearers in front of the team, the Middle Section and the back side of the team suddenly raised the flag in their hands——

The flag of Tiehe Knight Corps is flying high on the plain under the night.

……

Adesha had a dream.

In a dream, she seemed to have fallen into a bottomless vortex, and countless shadowy, smoky black cyclones surrounded herself. They were boundless, blocking Adesha’s sight and perception. It was continuously falling down in this huge cyclone. She really wants to wake up, and under normal circumstances, this sense of falling down should make her wake up immediately, but some powerful force pulls her in the depths of the vortex, leaving her and the real world invisible all the way through. The barrier-she can almost feel the touch of the futon, and heard the wind outside the window, but her spirit is like being trapped in a dream, and she has never been able to return to the real world.

Adesha tried to widen her eyes in the constantly rotating cyclone. She wanted to see what was in the shadowy mist. Then suddenly, the mist condensed things in the mist-she saw the face Many, many familiar or unfamiliar faces, she saw her grandfather, the soldier she knew best, and the acquaintances who were far away at Imperial Capital…

In the end, she suddenly saw her father, Bard Wender’s face emerged from the depths of the vortex, and then the extend the hand pushed her hard.

Adesha awakened suddenly, gasping violently in the dark, she felt her heart peng peng straight, some kind of “repercussions” like drowning made her extremely uncomfortable, and cold sweat had already drenched her body.

“General, general! Please wake up, general!”

The rapid knocking on the door and the shouting of the subordinates finally reached her ears-did this sound just appear? Or have you called yourself for a while?

Adesha got up quickly, handed a piece of regular clothing on her body, and complied: “Come in!”

The door of the room was pushed open, and a subordinate appeared at the door of the room. The young adjutant stepped forward and performed a military salute. With an anxious expression on his face, he said quickly: “General, In some cases, there was a riot in the residential area of ​​War God Priest, a group of fighting Priest and the soldiers on duty broke out, and there have been… many casualties.”

“What are you talking about? Riot?” Adesha startled, and immediately went to get her sword and the coat she wore when she went out-although she heard an incredible news, she was very aware of her credibility and ability. Judgment, this kind of news is fabricated out of thin air, “What is the situation now? Who is on the scene? Is the situation under control?”

As she said, she temporarily handed the saber to the adjutant, while walking quickly in her clothes.

“Brewer Rider Head has controlled the situation-because it was suddenly out of control, the soldiers did not respond at first, resulting in seven deaths and 30 to 40 injuries, at least fifteen of them were seriously injured. Afterwards patrolling nearby The Knight and battle mage arrived quickly, blocking the Priest who seemed a little consciousness back and separated,” the young adjutant said quickly as he followed. “The other areas have strengthened patrol and surveillance. There is no sign of confusion for a while.”

It seems that consciousness is unclear…

Adesha’s heart sank, and his pace suddenly quickened again.

A pungent bloody smell greeted us just outside the camp where Winterwolf Castle was used to house part of Priest.

Knights have controlled the entire scene. A large number of fully armed soldiers are guarding all the entrances and exits of the area. The battle mage constantly scans all mana fluctuations in the camp with the detection of magic spells. It is always ready to respond to the out of control and extraordinary Rebellion, several expression patrol Knight noticed the arrival of Adesha, and immediately stopped to salute.

Adesha waved her hand, directly over the wall and into the camp.

The wounded have been transferred, the corpse is still lying on the ground, the splattered blood has cooled down on this cold winter night, and the waste energy remaining after the intensive release of magic spell and Divine Spell is still accumulated in the vicinity, in Adesha’s The misty state appeared in the horizon of mana. She frowned towards the remains of soldiers wearing Empire-style armor-they were all killed by a scorching magical plastic blade or Divine Spell, and there was not much blood flowing out. The blood smell here is more from those Priest killed by sword.

The bodies of Priest fell around, and the soldiers killed by them fell together.

Adesha suppressed the intense emotions in her heart. She came to one of the bodies of War God Priest, squatting down around the blood stains and reached out to flip the remains.

Priest’s body turned over, and his empty eyes were fixed on Adesha, or on the dark sky, and there seemed to be some confusion and fanaticism in those eyes, which looked particularly uncomfortable.

But Adesha’s attention quickly turned away from those eyes—she looked towards Priest’s wound.

A fatal wound that chopped through the chest from near the neck, the enchantment blade cut the defensive power weak cloth and cotton robe, and below was the torn flesh-blood no longer flowed, the sides of the wound were You can see many… strange things.

That is a granulation that has grown from blood and flesh, and it looks strange and disturbing. Adesha can be sure that this thing should never grow in human wounds, and as for their role… these granulations seem to be trying to The wound healed, but the complete severance of the body’s Life Strength failed this attempt, and now all the granulations have shrunk and fit together with flesh and blood, which is particularly disgusting.

A blood-stained Knight on the armor approached Adesha.

“Brewer,” Adesha didn’t look up, she already felt the familiarity in the breath, “Have you noticed these wounds?”

“Yes, General,” Knight officer solemnly replied, “I have checked it once, and it is not the effect of a magic spell or alchemy, nor the normal War God Divine Spell. But one thing is certain , These… unusual things give Priest here a more powerful Life Strength. We have many soldiers who have suffered a great loss-no one can imagine that the enemy who has been cut down will fight back like no one. Many soldiers He was seriously injured and even lost his life under the rush.”

Adesha slightly nodded, Knight’s statement confirmed her speculation and explained why this chaos caused such heavy casualties.

The War God Priest placed here are all disarmed. Without the magic tool increase or the weapon, the Priest with bare hands-even the War God Priest-should not be fully armed and The regular army of collective action caused so much damage, even the sneak attack.

After all, the soldiers of Empire have a wealth of extraordinary combat experience, even if you don’t mention the extremely high proportion of mass-produced Knight and mass-produced mages in the army, even if they are soldiers of ordinary person, they are equipped with enchantment and targeted. Sex training.

But…if they are faced with a fallen Priest that has transformed from human to monster, then it is hard to say.

Adesha complexion is gloomy ——Although she doesn’t want to do this, at this moment she has to classify those out of control War God Priest as “Falled Priest”.

“Where are the other War God Priest?” She stood up, solemnly asked.

“Both have been brought under control and placed close to two camps, with three times more guards,” Rider Head Brewer replied immediately. “Most people are nervous, and a few are emotional, but they are at least No…mutation.”

Adesha’s heart bursts with irritability: “…we can only keep them in this way.”

“Yeah, we can only close them like this,” Rider Head’s face is also not very good, “This confusion is obviously caused by some kind of “madness”, we can’t do it with the ordinary Priest in the sober state- But I worry that soldiers may not think so.”

Adesha brows tightly frowns, what she was about to order, but soon noticed other details from the Priest’s body.

She bent down and touched a thin chain around Priest’s neck with her fingers. When she dragged it, she pulled a triangle-shaped iron amulet that had been stained with blood along the chain.

Rider Head next to “War sigil…” whispered, “I didn’t notice this just now!”

Adesha didn’t open, but expression severely tore off the sleeve of the Priest. In the vicinity of the bright magic crystal light, she saw the inside of the other party’s arm painted with red paint for the first time. The same triangle emblem.

“Wear an iron war sigil, and draw the War God emblem on the inside of the arm…” Rider Head subconsciously whispered, “representing the holding of the sword in the name of God-a sign of entering a state of war!”

“These Priest are not crazy, at least not crazy, they did these things according to the doctrine, this is not a riot…” Adesha said solemnly, “This is an sacrifice to War God to show his loyalty ‘S camp has entered a state of war.”

“State of war!?” Her adjutant came by with amazement on her face, “War from there!? Are these people going to rebel against Empire?”

“Sigil is not allowed to wear sigil, this is not a rebellion…”

Adesha’s words are only half said.

She quickly recalled the most recent news from the country, and quickly compiled the abnormal situation of War God Church and the balance of the situation in the most recently border area-she knows very little information, but some kind of wolf Sexual intuition has started to sound the alarm in her mind.

She suddenly made a terrible, terrible guess.

There is a problem with the War God Church, and the gods of these Priest are out of order. For this reason, believers who have fallen into anxiety and fanaticity most want to do at this time… It should be to please their gods.

But how can these Priests, who have been disarmed and named Protective Observation, are actually housed in camps to please their gods?

They are hard to do… but the believers of War God are not the only ones!

Adesha suddenly lifts the head, but almost at the same time, the afterglow of her eyes has seen a mage in the distance flying rapidly towards the side in the night sky.

This seems to be specifically to confirm her bad guess.

Adesha felt a feeling in her heart, a feeling that had clearly grasped the key, but it was difficult to reverse the changes. She still remembered when she had this feeling last time-it was the Paramel Heights Rainy night.

The messaging mage landed in front of her.

“General!” mage panted, panicked with expression, “Tiehe Knight Corps was dispatched without command, and their camp was empty-the last witness saw them build up on the plain away from the fortress , Went in the direction of the long wind defense line!”

Fall.

Adesha feels that she is falling towards a vortex.

……

Changfeng Fortress Group, with Longwind Fortress as the center, and a series of bunkers, outposts, railway nodes and military stations as the composite defense line.

Since its completion, it has not experienced the test of war.

On the eve of dawn, the stars in the sky appeared more dim and blurred, and a hazy glow was emerging over the far eastern hills, indicating that this cold night was about to reach the end.

Knight Corps, who traveled under the night, has reached the end of the “Chamanda Intersection”, which is the edge of the Cecil line of defense.

Under the dark mask, a pair of dark red eyes are looking at the dark horizon in the distance and the direction of the long wind defense line.

Behind this commander, the huge Knight Corps has formed a Legion formation, and the surging mana fills the entire resonance field.

After a few minutes, mana resonance peaked.

The commander raised his long sword high, and at the moment the long sword swayed, the entire Knight Corps had begun to accelerate slowly according to the wave, like a heavy and slow at first, but then rushed into the distance like a huge wave. horizon.
