Inside the tower, nearly 30 students were stationed there, on high alert. They did not all stay together, but tried to distribute themselves on each floor, relying on golems and mechanisms to delay time.
Darcy and the Frost Iron Knights behind him, each wearing full-coverage silver armor, rushed in, holding their shields directly in front of them, clearing a path through it, and then moving forward.
If it is a golem that sprays beams of light and flames, use a shield to cover your body, approach it quickly, and then use a sword to deal with it. If it is a large golem that uses brute force and heavy weapons, several people will work together to directly throw penetrating spears to paralyze it, and then pass through.
These knights wearing red cloaks were extremely disciplined and familiar with each other. They cooperated very quickly and in less than a minute, they broke through the third floor of the tower and rushed towards their final target, the fifth floor where the stronghold flag was located.
Although some members started to get injured due to being in a hurry, fortunately the armor they wore provided excellent protection, and with the help of many people sharing the burden and supporting each other, none of the Frost Front cavalrymen who entered the tower were forced to retreat.
And now, accompanied by the rapid collision of metal armor, this group of knights has reached the fourth floor.
This floor, unusually devoid of golems or other traps, was home to only seven students in light armor standing in the center. They wore cyan swordsman uniforms, their mithril armor gleaming with a mysterious blue-purple glow, seemingly enchanted fine armor.
What is even more eye-catching is the long swords held in the hands of these people. They are half a person's height and can be held with both hands or one hand. The sword body is long and narrow, with obvious grooves and carvings on it. Rays of rainbow light flow through it, causing ripples in the air.
The leader was a woman with short silver-gray hair, red lips, and a beautiful face. She wore silver, close-fitting armor and clasped a silver rainbow sword in both hands. Upon seeing these fully-armored Frost Iron Knights, she spoke.
"Which of you is Dulcie?"
But these knights, who only had their goals and victory in mind, did not answer. Instead, they rushed forward, ready to compress the space and quickly defeat the stationed magic swordsmen with their numerical advantage.
"You're really unromantic." The woman sighed softly, then her expression became serious. She gripped the sword in both hands, kicked off with her back feet, and her figure disappeared briefly into the air.
Then, a cold light flashed, and long streaks of blood splattered the ground and walls. The three Frost Iron Knights fell, leaving the scene in dismay. Immediately afterwards, the other magic swordsmen also took action. With the blessing of various pre-prepared buff spells and enchanted armor, these magic swordsmen's attack power was extremely strong. The sharp swords in their hands saw the enemy's armor and weapons as thin as paper, easily tearing through them.
Red blood splattered, broken swords and shields bounced off the ground, making crisp sounds, followed by the heavy sound of the riders falling, and a strong smell of blood began to spread in the tower.
The narrow space inside the tower restricted the team's deployment, preventing these Frost Iron Knights from taking advantage of their numbers. Facing these elite magic swordsmen among the elite, they began to suffer considerable casualties, and the momentum of their attack slowed down.
However, this advantage was short-lived. Various buffs consumed a significant amount of mana and took a heavy toll on the body. After the vanguard was blocked, the core warriors led by Darcy appeared at the stairwell. By then, 1 minute and 22 seconds had passed since they entered the tower.
The wielding spear erupted like thunder in the tower, knocking two magic swordsmen against the wall. Their armor shattered, they spitted blood, and passed out. He stepped forward, the cold spear in his hand like a silver dragon, smashing directly into the remaining men.
The leading woman also shouted loudly, and the magic power in the air was suffocated and briefly stagnated. The sword in her hand emitted a bright and strong light and slashed directly at Darcy's spear.
Praise——
Like shattering glass, the magic sword and spear collided, shattering into fragments that shot into the other's body and surroundings. Some embedded themselves in the wall, creating tiny cracks in the tower that let light through. Some struck the knight's armor, staining it with blood. Many more shot directly at Darcy, who was closest to them, with a crackling sound. Unfortunately, these fragments still failed to tear through his armor.
As the head of the academy, Darcy naturally possesses special talents. With the blessing of a talent similar to cold iron, his body and armor are extremely tough and strong, and are not so easily penetrated.
After breaking the opponent's sword, the spear went straight through the woman's chest, emerged from behind her shoulder, and then was quickly pulled out, bringing up bursts of blood foam, causing the opponent to twitch and roll on the ground.
Darcy in the armor frowned slightly, kicked the woman away, and embedded her body in the wall on one side, causing the barrier to retreat. Then he led the members behind him forward again and stepped towards the last floor of the tower, which was the fifth floor.
After climbing the steps to the fifth floor, the final position appeared in front of him. Two special golems stood in front of the flag of the Tower Academy. These two golems were dark gold in color, and the engraved patterns and enchantments on their bodies were also extraordinary.
It was a pure white pattern like water. As the golem moved, a small, enclosed space, resembling a church, formed around the flag. Gold and white threads outlined wing patterns, forming doors that appeared fragile and thin, yet felt incredibly solid.
Darcy picked up the spear in his hand, gathered some strength, and then shot it out with all his strength. When the tip of the spear hit the golden transparent door, the light trembled, and a muffled buzzing sound was heard. Then the spear bounced off and fell to the ground with a sound of metal collision.
