Chapter 461 Fierce battle!
Although they heard Hayden's loud exclamation, everyone was still confused.
Although those standing here are all high-ranking nobles from the two duchies, the title of magician is too unfamiliar to them.
Even though some people have seen records of them in ancient books, no one can remember them for a moment, nor do they know how terrifying they were.
Just when everyone was confused, Gervis made the first move.
Of course he knew how terrifying magicians were, and he didn't have time to think about why there were so many magicians. Gervis directly threw a large fireball at the crowd of the Principality of Xis. This fireball was more than twice as big as the one released by Ferdinand, and Gervis cast the spell very quickly, in the blink of an eye.
“Get out of the way!”
After throwing the fireball, Gervis rushed towards Alice quickly. His cheap wife was a silver knight, and she would be seriously injured even if she was hit by the lowest level fireball.
boom!
While the five magicians on the opposite side were still chanting, Gervis's fireball hit one of them first. The magician did not expect that there was someone in the Principality of Zeon's team who could cast fireball.
The fireball hit him in the face without warning. The basin-sized fireball exploded instantly. The magician only had time to let out a scream before his entire upper body was engulfed in flames.
Originally, this lowest level fireball technique was not difficult for them to defend against. They only needed to release a low-level defensive shield to block it. Unfortunately, due to his carelessness, he lost this opportunity.
"Chains of Fire!"
Although one of them was killed by Gervis's fireball, the remaining four magicians still completed the spell two seconds later. Moreover, it seemed that they completed the spell at the same time, and even the words they shouted were uttered at the same time.
As they finished speaking, a flame chain more than eight meters long suddenly appeared in the teams of the Principality of Jean and the Principality of Alban. After the flame chain appeared, it quickly bound up several nobles nearby.
"ah!"
Three nobles nearby were caught off guard and immediately entangled by the scorching flame chains, uttering sharp howls.
But no matter how they struggled, they could not break free of the flame chains. After just three to five seconds, these three titled knights with mid-silver strength were burned to death!
After the three nobles were burned to death, the flaming chains did not disappear, but continued to bind other nobles, including Alice.
"careful!"
Seeing that the chain was about to approach Alice, Alice wanted to resist with her sword, but Gervis jumped up and knocked Alice off her horse to the ground, and she rolled twice on the grass before stopping.
"Alice, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!"
Alice finally reacted and quickly stood up with Gervis.
"Let's get out of here first!"
Although Gervis knows magic, he only knows the most basic fireball spell as an offensive magic.
Those four magicians had clearly just performed a magic trick together, which was simply beyond the capability of Gervis to contend with.
"OK!"
Alice had no objection. It was her first time meeting a magician and she didn't know how to fight him. At this moment, Gervis' words were her backbone.
"Ice Roar!"
Gervis's repeated actions finally attracted the attention of the magicians. One of the magicians aimed directly at Gervis and cast another spell.
At the same time, Gervis felt his hair stand on end, and he felt that danger was about to come in the next second.
So Gervis didn't think twice and quickly pushed Alice away, while he also dodged to the side.
Puff puff puff!
The next moment, more than ten ice cones as big as gun tips appeared at the place where Gervis had originally stood. They all fell from the sky and sank deeply into the ground.
Whoosh whoosh!
After being pushed away by Gervis, Alice stood firm with a nimble jump, then quickly took out the longbow from her back and almost instantly shot three arrows at the magicians.
"Fire Shield!"
Unfortunately, although Alice's arrows were swift, the magician on the other side was well prepared and immediately released a fire shield to directly block Alice's three consecutive arrows.
The arrow shot by Alice not only failed to penetrate the fire shield, but also began to smoke at the first moment. The wooden arrow shaft began to burn and then fell to the ground weakly.
"Go, Alice!"
Gervis rode his unicorn quickly to Alice's side and held out his hand for Alice to mount.
After Alice got on the horse, Gervis glanced at the magicians from the Principality of Xis and threw a fireball at them again.
boom!
Gervis' fireball drew a beautiful arc and quickly hit the fire shield that had just blocked Alice's arrow, and instantly dissipated at the same time as the fire shield.
At this point, Gervis did not stop and quickly urged the unicorn to run towards the army of the Principality of Zeon.
At this moment, Lawrence, Hayden and others were fighting with the golden knights in the Principality of Xis's team.
Originally, Hayden wanted to deal with those magicians as soon as possible, but unfortunately they were well prepared. Seven or eight golden knights directly held back Lawrence and Hayden.
Woo! Woo!
At this moment, a loud horn sounded from the army of the Principality of XISI. Konide had returned to the army of the Principality of XISI.
"retreat!"
"retreat!"
Hearing the horn, Lawrence and Hayden looked at each other at the same time, and then shouted retreat in unison.
If they don't leave now, they will be surrounded by thousands of troops soon.
When Lawrence and Hayden retreated back to their own army formations, the cavalry of the Principality of XXIS also began to charge towards the two armies.
"Order the longbowmen to fire freely!"
Soon, the army of the Principality of Jean was engaged in a battle with more than 10,000 cavalrymen of the Principality of Xis.
The same thing happened on the side of the Principality of Alban, which also started a melee with the cavalry of the Principality of Xis.
"Grevith! Thank you for just now!"
There was still a little blush on Alice's face at this moment. She had a strange feeling in her heart when she rode a warhorse with Gervis just now.
"What are you talking about! Isn't this the way it should be?"
Gervis had no time to pay attention to Alice at the moment, his attention was all on the battlefield, and he answered casually.
"Um!"
Alice didn't care about Gervis's attitude. She nodded obediently and also looked towards the battlefield.
The fighting on the battlefield was very fierce at this time. Although the 5,000 cavalry of the Principality of Jean were elite, the enemy's cavalry was twice as many as theirs. Even with the support of infantry, the infantry did not have much advantage over the cavalry.
More importantly, there are four or five magicians in the Principality of Xis's team.
These magicians may not be a major threat to the Golden Knights, but they are extremely dangerous to ordinary soldiers, even the Bronze Knights and Silver Knights.
These magicians are reaping the lives of the Principality of Zeon soldiers every moment.
"Pass my order, send out all the 2,000 elite cavalry and 5,000 infantry that were reserved!"
King Lawrence stood on the platform with an expressionless face and shouted orders.
Following his order, the soldier in charge of delivering the message immediately passed on the order, and thousands of cavalry and infantry from the camp in the rear immediately rushed towards this side.
"Grevith! You can do magic?"
With the addition of 7,000 elite soldiers, the situation on the battlefield ahead was finally eased. Even though those magicians had great killing power, they were only a handful after all.
Moreover, magic also consumes magical power, and the frequency of those magicians casting magic has obviously decreased.
At this time, the nobles of the Principality of Jean finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Alice looked at Gervis again and asked curiously!
"I only know a little bit! It's the fireball you just saw!"
Since he had been caught, Gervis did not hide it. After all, almost everyone knew about the existence of the magician now.
"How did you learn it? Can I learn it?"
Alice asked immediately, her eyes full of anticipation.
Several earls nearby, including King Lawrence, also pricked up their ears, waiting for Gervis' answer.
