Chapter 1472: Breaking into the Battlefield
The scorched earth battlefield was filled with smoke, and broken and scattered weapons and corpses were everywhere.
The tattered and charred flags fluttered weakly in the hot wind mixed with a foul stench.
At the rear of the battlefield, as the smoke dissipated, a white spiral tower could be vaguely seen in the distance.
On the battlefield, the Flame Knights and Black Knights sat on the ground, leaning exhaustedly on their weapons, with their heads lowered and not moving.
Sitting on top of the pile of corpses was a tall and burly figure.
Messermo's armor was covered with layers of black and red blood, his helmet had long been missing, and his red hair was now hanging in dirty clumps in front of his forehead and beside his ears.
He held the blood-stained Piercer Spear in his arms, the flame on it almost extinguished.
Messermo couldn't remember how long he had been fighting. Now was a very rare short break, and he wanted to recover as much strength as possible.
In the distance, a large number of snake soldiers were reorganizing their formation.
The one fighting against the Messermo forces was the volcano mansion of the blasphemous king Lakkad, who made no secret of his desire for the Spiral Tower and vowed to seize the secret of Queen Marika's deification. To this end, he sent his thousand-year-old army of snakemen to attack the Spiral Tower.
But Messermo led his legion to guard the only way in and out of the Spiral Tower, and would not allow anyone to enter the Spiral Tower to discover the mother's secret.
The two sides engaged in a protracted battle, with countless soldiers and knights killed or wounded.
According to common sense, the strength of Messermo's legion is stronger than that of the Volcano Mansion. Even if the latter has accumulated troops for a thousand years, it cannot surpass the former in high-end combat power. After all, Messermo's 'Veteran Gaius' and 'Double Moon Knight Leilana' are top demigod-level warriors, not to mention that Messermo himself has mastered the power of 'snake' and 'fire'.
It’s a pity that Lacard’s true form was too terrifying. He actually merged with the God-Eating Serpent and became a giant half-man, half-snake monster.
He also controls the terrible lava magic transformed from Gmir's ancient spells, and is also the most powerful snake in the world.
The red-haired Impaler wielded fire and fought alongside the snake, swinging his spear at the giant serpent.
The crowned serpent was bathed in lava and flames, and the flames raised by the profane holy sword held high were like the setting sun.
The aftermath of the battle between the two sides even turned the entire battlefield into a sea of lava and fire.
No matter how many wounds Messermo inflicted on the giant snake with the Piercer Spear, the snake could use the fire brought about by the Sword of Profanation to plunder the vitality of all things in the world and convert it into its own vitality.
The blasphemous king Lakkad was unable to completely kill the extremely agile Messermo, even though the holy sword in his hand could flatten mountains with just a swing.
Today, at this moment, it is the umpteenth time that both sides have temporarily withdrawn their troops and taken a short rest.
Surrounded by sulfurous mist, the huge snake body of the blasphemous king Lakkad was coiled in the lava and slowly squirming, and the wounds on his body were slowly healing under the lava bath.
Not far away stood a graceful woman in a long white gauze dress. She looked elegant and graceful in the white gauze from head to toe. This person was Tanis, the hostess of the Volcano Mansion, the actual leader of the Volcano Mansion, and the second person under Lakkad.
"Your Majesty, there are not many captured Limb-jointed Grek soldiers left. Can we use them as food for the Serpentine Legion?"
Tanis spoke cruel and ruthless words in an elegant and beautiful voice.
The giant snake Lakkad slowly moved its body to allow more lava to cover its scales and wounds. The sound was so loud and deep that it was almost like the roar of a volcanic eruption:
"Eat them... they are of no use anymore..."
Not long ago, the Volcano Residence encountered a chaotic army before arriving at the Spiral Tower battlefield. This army collapsed at the first blow and had no leader at all. After interrogation, it was learned that this was the Grek Legion, which had recently been in high spirits after the limb graft of Grek.
Previously, because the limb-replaced Greg was able to fight with the strongest demigod Latan without dying, Lacard was quite wary of this man. Unexpectedly, after interrogating him, he found that the limb-replaced Greg had abandoned his troops and disappeared.
Lakkad didn't bother to bother with the coward, so he captured the Grek Army and used them as cannon fodder in the battle against the Messermo Legion.
After several days of continuous fierce fighting, this meat grinder-like battlefield has devoured most of the soldiers of the Grek Legion. The remaining remnants are no longer of any use and are directly used by Lakkad and Tanis as reserve food for the Snake Legion.
Following Tanis's order, the remaining Grek soldiers were pounced on the ground and devoured by the snakemen soldiers who were supervising them before they could even beg for mercy. The scene suddenly became bloody.
Seeing this scene, Tanis smiled charmingly: "Oh haha... these children have a good appetite. With the supplement of flesh and blood, the snake army can defeat Messermo's army in one fell swoop. As expected, the Volcano Mansion is the most powerful force in the border area."
As she spoke, she looked towards the huge snake king that was as huge as a mountain, with uncontrollable admiration and excitement in her eyes.
Thousands of years of planning and forbearance are finally coming to fruition. The blasphemous king Lakkad whom she serves will be the new god!
Lacard also laughed deafeningly: "Haha, Messermo has no chance... The next battle will be the final battle... I will take off Messermo's head, and then climb the spiral tower to personally obtain the secret of Marika's deification. I will be the new god of the border -"
Before he finished speaking, the sky, which was originally covered by dark fire clouds and smoke, was suddenly dispersed by a huge flame!
The meteor was wrapped in flames and whistled towards the Volcano Residence camp where Lacard was.
boom! !
The roar was followed by the sound of falling rubble and the screams and wails of the snake soldiers.
When the smoke cleared, Lakkad raised the profane holy sword that was blocking himself and Tanis, and looked towards the place where the meteor fell.
A crater with a diameter of more than 100 meters was smashed into the ground. The snakemen soldiers and the remnants of Greg in the center of the crater were vaporized at the moment of the meteor bombardment without leaving any bones. The ground around the crater showed large patches of black and red radial impact marks, which were all the last marks left in this world by the snakemen soldiers who were a little further away.
Further away were the shattered bodies of the snakemen, as well as the snakemen soldiers who had managed to survive but were missing arms and legs with broken bones.
Tanis exclaimed: "Your Majesty! That, that is..."
Lakkad said nothing, but silently raised the Sword of Blasphemy, ready for battle.
The tall and burly figure of General Shattering Star slowly emerged from the center of the crater that was emitting billowing heat waves. He was still riding his beloved horse, holding the Lion Sword in both hands, looking majestic and awe-inspiring.
"Latan, my brother...are you also going to become a stumbling block that prevents me from becoming a god?"
The big snake let out a deafening roar.
"Stupid question."
A purple fluorescence of gravity magic began to appear around Latan's body, rising as his murderous aura.
"Don't think I will show mercy to you. You are no longer my brother, God-Eating Snake!"
Tanis beside the big snake screamed: "General Shatterstar, your bravery is unparalleled in the borderland, but it is unwise for you to break into the Volcano Mansion alone at this moment! Do you think Messermo will join hands with you to fight the enemy? No, he will only regard you as a "rebel" who is trying to seize the secret of the Everqueen's deification! Why not turn to the light now and join hands with your brother Lord Lakkad..."
"Alone? Woman, what are you talking about?"
Tanis's words were interrupted rudely by Latan.
As if in response to General Shatterstar's words, the sound of fighting was heard in the distance.
The Red Lion Legion and the Holy Tree Legion began to encircle and kill the Snake Legion.
Every time 'Millicent's Royal Guard Knight' Loretta pulled the magic bow, she would shoot arrows like a rain of stars in the sky, and large groups of snake people would fall to the ground as the arrows fell.
'City Lord' Jie Lian wielded his two swords and rushed into the snakemen's camp as if he were in an empty space, killing people and causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere.
The powerful heroic unit 'Rebels' of the Volcano Mansion immediately set out to intercept these top warriors, but as soon as they took action, their heads were chopped off or split in half, or they just stood there motionless like zombies.
Lakkad was shocked to see two more figures emerge from the sulfurous smoke.
The figure that appeared this time made him feel that every snake scale was trembling just by looking at it.
The red-haired female swordsman walked slowly towards Lakkad with a sword in hand. Behind her, there was a faint figure of a girl with long lavender hair.
The candidate for the king with the strongest military power in the border area - 'Heather's Blade' Millicent!
The god who controls the laws of sleep - 'Saint' Torina.
