Lord of Myriad Worlds, Human Race Forbidden Curse Archmage

Chapter 1020: The Fall of El Fortress

The war in the Spider Mines ended quickly.

The remaining 50,000 cavalry were under attack from the Aria alien army.

Soon the entire army was wiped out.

So far!

The Hastings Frontier Cavalry Regiment was completely wiped out.

At this time, Guderian returned to the Alpha Kingdom Castle.

After getting the news.

Guderian took the opportunity to march the main force of the Alpha border army, intending to capture the El Fortress.

But at the moment.

Under the Fortress of El.

The infantry coalition composed of many evil gods showed no signs of retreating.

Melissa leaves and the Shadow Warlock has escaped.

Duke Dalton in the El Fortress was unable to command these Divine Grace Legions.

The most elite coalition forces under the evil god.

At this moment they have become a mob.

This is what a coalition army is like, they are not subordinate to each other.

No combined force can be formed.

Even a few heroes are aware of this problem.

But the gods are wary of each other.

to be honest.

There is no trust between evil gods.

If Fang Yuan hadn't appeared.

Now on the battlefield, they can fight each other.

Lost Melissa, who was empowered by the gods.

At this time, these legions were even arguing over the defense zones they occupied.

They didn't realize that if Melissa was defeated.

These scattered infantry formations could not stop Alpha's cavalry in the wild.

They didn't even deploy scouts forward.

Not to mention taking over the El Fortress and controlling the only large-scale defense point.

to be frank.

If it weren’t in this secret realm.

Fang Yuan doesn't need to put so much effort into dealing with these stupid evil gods.

Just drawing on a few allied legions under his command would be enough to destroy them.

The evil god has been suppressed for a long time and has just awakened.

To be honest, the quality of the troops under their command is limited.

In addition, most of the recruited heroes are from the Demi-God Era.

This is different from the later Glory Era, a period of racial war that broke out across the civilization of the Old World.

There is no hero who has been baptized by racial war.

Whether it is legion command or war proficiency, it is very different from later generations.

The decline of the gods ushered in an era of cultural explosion in the civilization of the Old World.

Various advanced ideas spread among different ethnic groups along with the war.

Any legion commanded by a hero from the racial war period can easily defeat the legion commanded by a hero from the Demi-God era.

The only advantage of heroes in the Age of Demigods.

That means you can use God-given skills and God-given legion skills.

Besides.

What remains is conservatism, pedantry and lack of flexibility.

Chaos outside Ayr.

Even Duke Dalton in El Fortress shook his head after seeing it.

If there is no protection from gods.

Dalton could lead his army to defeat these Divine Grace Legions.

Compared with the chaotic army of gods outside.

The interior of the El Fortress was unusually quiet.

As a duke, Dalton was wavering at this time.

On the one hand, he provided intelligence to Alpha's spies.

But at the same time, there was no complete surrender.

He's sitting on the fence.

Want to take advantage of both sides.

At the same time, I am waiting.

Wait until one side wins before surrendering.

The era in which we are currently living is a secret one.

The nobles were allowed to do so.

The disappearance of the gods gave the nobles the supreme status.

Even if they were captured in war, they would not be blamed for surrendering.

All he had to do was pay the ransom and he would still be a noble.

Even if they have committed treason, a noble is still a noble.

For the great nobles, sitting on the fence is always the best option.

Looking at the chaotic Divine Grace Army outside the city.

Dalton's eyes flashed with contempt.

I was also curious, after Melissa chased him out.

What's going on now.

As far as he knew, Alpha's main cavalry was not large.

Mainly border knights.

There are still 50,000 cavalry left, all of which were newly formed from various places.

The original cavalry has now been transferred to the royal capital and has become the new king's royal guard.

After all, this cavalry was trained by the new king himself.

"If we only look at the comparison of military strength."

"The knights of the Alpha Kingdom should be defeated."

“Although the Divine Grace Legion doesn’t look that good.”

"But if there is a unified command, the combat effectiveness is still good."

"Relying on the advantage in numbers, we can easily crush the cavalry of the Alpha Kingdom."

"Especially since Alpha's main cavalry has been crippled."

"The combat effectiveness between the two sides is no longer on the same level."

"And if the Alpha Kingdom is defeated."

"The next step is to prepare to march to the Alpha border."

"After I recover the lost territory, I will return to the capital to facilitate peace talks."

"It will be of no benefit to either side if the fighting continues."

"It will only allow the power of the gods to continue to expand."

And just as Dalton was certain in his heart that Melissa had won.

Even when starting to plan the next step.

A guard dressed in black came hurriedly.

"Your Mightiness."

"The latest news has arrived."

"There are patrolling cavalry who saw the dragon rider leave."

The news made Dalton frown.

"left?"

"You didn't return to the fortress?"

The guard shook his head.

"No, and the number of dragon riders leaving this time is half as many."

“He left in a hurry.”

This is not good news.

But it's not all bad news.

At least for Dalton.

Even if Melissa was defeated.

As a noble.

And he is also a noble who sits on the fence.

Dalton can never lose badly.

"Will we lose?"

The guard asked carefully.

This is Dalton's nephew.

Great nobles all like to use their relatives as guards.

Not only can you trust it completely.

At the same time, letting them experience war can also cultivate qualified nobles.

At some critical moments, it can also provide emotional value.

Dalton hesitated for a moment.

“It’s not impossible.”

If Alpha wins.

Then the Fortress of El is in danger.

The danger Dalton was talking about was not the Alpha Kingdom's army.

But it’s these divine legions outside the city.

After losing unified command, these Divine Grace Legions were no match for the Alpha Army.

At that time, they will surely rush into the El Fortress.

If the fort is taken over.

Even if I want to sit on the fence, I can't do it.

They can only serve as cannon fodder to defend the city.

With the current strength of the El Fortress, it is impossible to defend it.

In just half a day, he and his soldiers would be killed.

Dalton had no doubt about that.

The commanders of the Divine Grace Legion did not treat them as human beings.

Think of the consequences.

There was a look of determination in Dalton's eyes.

"Hudson!"

Dalton called his nephew and chief of the guards.

"Yes, sir."

When marching or fighting, nobles could only use honorific titles.

"Take your people with you."

"Take over the city gate quietly."

"All the bows and crossbows on the city walls should be deployed."

"Remember, everyone must use our guards."

"All those who are untrustworthy will be sent out of the city."

"Just use the name of condolence and ask them to bring more food."

"As ordered!"

Dalton's decision means he has given up sitting on the fence.

He voted for Alpha and became a traitor to Hastings.

However, Hastings is now internally divided.

What's the point of talking about traitors or not.

I am just going to pledge my loyalty to His Excellency the Third Prince.

early morning.

The sun in the sky slowly rises.

The last bit of darkness was cleared away.

At this moment.

After a night of preparation.

Duke Dalton's personal guards have completely taken over the El Fortress.

And also at this time.

outside the city.

Illuminating the horizon.

A "dong dong dong" sound was heard.

Soon.

on the horizon.

Teams of Alpha Infantry appeared in the field of vision.

After Guderian left the Spider Mine.

It was already late at night.

He and the border knights under his command were already exhausted.

But even so.

Guderian did not stop at all.

He directly ordered the border troops to assemble immediately and set out under the cover of night.

The fighter plane is fleeting.

If we wait until daybreak before marching.

By the time we get to Fort El, I'm afraid the flowers will be cold.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, an army of more than 200,000 marched quickly.

Until before dawn.

In addition to the 20,000 auxiliary troops who were lost.

The main force has all arrived at the border of El Fortress.

Guderian personally led the troops to conduct reconnaissance.

Seeing the legions under the command of the evil god, each of them set up camp.

They didn't even send out basic scouts.

Guderian knew he had made the right decision.

He ordered the army to rest for an hour.

Rest, eat, and adjust the subordinates of the army.

Wait until dawn.

When the first ray of sunlight shines in the early morning.

Guderian personally led the border knights and marched towards the El Fortress in the rising sun.

"go ahead!"

Guderian pointed his Gondorian spear forward.

Under the golden sunlight.

A golden spear flashed in the air.

Behind you.

A main force of two hundred thousand.

Rolling forward in a fish scale formation.

The loud noise of "Boom boom boom~" broke the tranquility at dawn.

"kill!"

"Roar!"

Outside the Fortress of El.

There are quite a few evil god infantry legions left behind.

There are as many as 250,000.

This time to win.

Each evil god has almost invested a huge amount of money.

This was originally a war that was sure to be won.

But who knows.

The war that was sure to be won was lost.

And the loss was horrible.

The whole army was defeated.

Deafening shouts of killing were heard.

The Divine Grace Legion, who were still asleep, were awakened.

They all came out of their tents, wanting to know where the sound came from.

When they saw the Alpha Legion coming like a tide.

Even the Divine Grace Legion has the protection of gods.

It collapsed at this moment.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

The hero of the Divine Grace Legion roared.

"Formation."

"Form a formation immediately!"

Unfortunately, by this time, it was too late.

It's too late.

"cavalry!"

"attack!"

Guderian waved the spear of Gondor in his hand.

After a full night's rest.

The spirited border knight drew out the knight's sword that was still stained with black blood.

Rushed in the direction of Guderian's spear.

Behind you.

There were also 50,000 Hastings cavalry.

Even the new knights who were just added.

They were also regular cavalry who had undergone training.

A brutal bloody battle may not work.

But this is a favorable battle.

No orders were needed from Guderian.

The 50,000 cavalry were divided into three teams.

Sweeping the battlefield.

Charged into the Legion of Divine Grace before it formed a battle formation.

Fifty thousand cavalrymen rushed in.

The Divine Grace Legion was attacked again.

There was almost no hindrance.

The entire legion was destroyed.

A matter of life and death.

The heroes who commanded the Divine Grace Legion put aside their prejudices at this time.

The opinions were quickly reached.

"Failed, defeated!"

"Retreat, retreat, retreat to Fort El!!!"

The commander who led the escape directly caused a greater defeat.

But at this time, they no longer cared about so much.

To stay in the state of becoming is to be completely wiped out.

If we take some people now and escape into the El Fortress, we can still save some of them.

but!

When they rushed to the fortress of El.

But it felt like the sky was falling.

The gate of the fortress.

Slowly close at this moment.

"Open the door."

"We are warriors of the God."

"Hurry, get down here and stop the pursuers for us, you bunch of stupid Pan believers."

"If you don't open the city gate, the God will slaughter your entire family."

The sound of cursing reached the city wall.

Dalton came out.

He looked at the Divine Grace warriors who were shouting under the city wall with a smile.

"Oh?"

"The order I received was that no one except Lady Melissa should appear."

"No one is allowed to return to Fort El."

"Everyone."

"I must see Ms. Melissa, or the order from His Excellency the Shadow Warlock."

"Your orders!"

"Not worthy yet."

These words made the Divine Grace warriors under the city jump up in anger.

"asshole!"

"Guderian's cavalry are here."

"Melissa died a long time ago."

"Open the door."

Dalton raised his head and looked into the distance.

there.

Alpha's cavalry broke through the resistance of the Divine Grace warriors.

The infantry have already come forward to harvest.

Another cavalry unit has already caught up.

He doesn't talk nonsense either.

I know now is the time to make peace.

If you don’t hand it over!

There is no way to gain the other party's trust.

"Somebody come!"

"Do it!"

On top of the city wall.

The crossbows that had been prepared long ago were aimed at the Divine Grace warriors under the city wall.

"emission!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"

Arrows shot down like locusts.

These Divine Grace warriors were caught off guard.

It was shot directly into a sieve.

They looked at the arrows on their bodies with disbelief on their faces.

"You betrayed me~"

After taking a look, Duke Dalton picked up a crossbow and aimed it himself.

Below the "咻".

Hit the opponent's head accurately.

At this time, the border knights led by Guderian came chasing after them.

"Dalton!"

"Kaicheng!"

He glanced at the God's Grace warriors who were killed under the city and gave orders without any hesitation.

"I want to see the third prince."

"Your Excellency, I am still the Duke of Hastings."

"The soldiers behind me will not betray their country."

"We are just going to follow the Third Prince."

"Drive out the evil spirit that has invaded our country."

Guderian sneered.

He waved his hand behind him.

A cavalryman stepped out.

Take off your helmet.

The golden hair unique to the Hastings royal family was revealed.

"Dalton."

"do you know me?"

Dalton on the city wall knelt down immediately after seeing this.

"This old minister has met the Third Prince."

"The evil god has invaded. We nobles are willing to follow His Excellency the Prince to drive out the evil god and restore the royal family."

On the city wall, there was an immediate sound of people kneeling down.

"Open the city gate."

"Welcome His Excellency the Third Prince."

Soon, the gate of El Fortress slowly opened.

The stationed Hastings knights filed out.

Kneeled down on both sides of the city wall.

Welcome the third prince to enter.

Seeing this, Guderian rode forward directly.

Passed the three princes and entered the fortress.

At the same time, the border knights behind him immediately took over the fortress.

The Fortress of El fell at this moment.

And the fall of this fortress.

This also means that the road to Hastings Capital has been opened.

Hastings Capital!

Already under the attack of the Alpha Kingdom cavalry.

After Guderian captured the El Fortress.

Word spread quickly.

Whether it is the Alpha Kingdom, Hastings, or the other four countries.

Or an evil god.

Everyone knew the news at the first time.

Everyone who heard the news knew it.

This is a battle that will change the situation on the continent!!! (End of this chapter)
