Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

"what!"

Screams rang out, and the murdered man fell to the ground with his eyes wide open. There was a deep scratch on his neck, and now there was a huge insect lying on his body, eating his flesh.

Just as the insect was enjoying its delicious food, a halberd pierced its body.

The person who killed the bug wore the same standard armor of the Stephen Empire as the person who had just been killed by the bug. They were standing on the new city wall at the moment, with a dark cloud above their heads. They thought it was going to rain heavily, but if they looked carefully, they saw that it was a "shady curtain" composed of countless insects.

Hundreds of locusts are attacking the borders of Stephen's empire. This is a feast of locusts! They will devour everything in sight.

"Advanced gold magic-weapon sharpening!"

This is the only great mage in this army, and his main attribute is metal magic.

Among the armies, metal magicians are the most popular because they can cooperate with ordinary soldiers to exert more powerful power. For example, one shot of advanced metal magic - Melting Flow can kill up to 3 to 4 locusts. , consumes 15% of the magic power, but the same high-level magic, weapon sharpening, only consumes 5% of the magic power, lasts for 1 minute, and the archer can shoot 6 times.

"Fire arrows!"

Swish swish!

Three thousand archers fired a volley, which looked very spectacular. It was also a rain of arrows that covered the sky, but this rain of arrows was still insignificant compared to the locust tide.

An ordinary arrow was sharpened and penetrated several locusts one after another. About 1 locusts were killed in one salvo.

Such a record is much better than simply using offensive magic.

"Well done!"

General Eva who was stationed at this section of the new Great Wall praised it.

"But there are still too many locusts, Gerald!"

Gerald: "Yes, sir"

"Go and contact His Highness Rodney. When will the reinforcements from the Griffin Knights arrive?"

The reason why we are looking for griffon knights is that on the one hand, all of Rodney's callable dragon knights are dead, and on the other hand, griffin knights are more suitable for dealing with large-scale weak enemies.

Whether it is wind blade or storm spell, they can cause considerable damage to the locust swarm, and unlike the breath of the flying dragon, which cannot be released multiple times continuously, the griffon's wind blade can be released more than 5 times continuously, and the storm spell can also be released continuously. Can be released about times.

"Subordinate, go right away"

Gerald quickly boarded his dragon mount and flew to the eastern defense line where Rodney was.

"drive!"

Gerald still had a good impression of this prince. Being able to go to the battlefield in person was already a commendable act of courage.

At the same time, Rodney, who was on the front line in person, was quietly scolding his mother: "Damn it, Goddess, those damn mud-legged people didn't lie. There were actually a large number of locusts in the occupied area, but how did they know it in advance?"

"I don't know what happened to Enoch. Why hasn't he come back yet? A mere locust cannot be the opponent of the great knight."

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Oh no, the defense line on the west has been breached!"

The person who just spoke in a panic was Rodney's newly promoted general, Mallory. This guy was promoted to a Grand Knight not long ago, and it was also his first time as a general.

Rodney was furious when he heard this:

"Mallory, what do you do for food! The worms in the stinking ditch are more capable than you!"

"I'm very sorry! Your Highness! Yes, it was my subordinate's dereliction of duty."

Soon Rodney realized that he had lost his composure in front of his new subordinates, and quickly regained his composure:

"The people of the empire have not been evacuated yet. Now you are taking the Griffin Knights to replenish the defense line. I will forgive you this time. Remember, don't let me down again."

"Yes! Your Highness, the goddess will witness my promise today."

"go"

Several high-pitched screams came from the griffon camp, penetrating with soul-rending power. 30 griffons spread their proud wings, flapped them hard, and flew high into the sky.

On the western defense line, swarms of locusts are really killing unarmed civilians, and there are fat little nobles who are reluctant to part with their little property and are walking slowly behind with heavy carriages. This is locusts looking for food. preferred target.

"Don't eat me! I have money! I also want slaves. I will give you all the slaves to eat. Don't eat me, ah!"

Unfortunately, locusts cannot understand human speech. They only understand the delicious and tender meal in front of them.

Woo...woo...woo~

The wind became louder and louder, and the sky became darker. Now, the storm was really coming.

30 griffins released storm spells at the same time. The powerful wind spell fluctuations disrupted the airflow, and the mist in the air gathered together to form dark clouds.

Because the multiple storm spells rotated in the same direction, they gathered together and turned into a real natural hurricane. A large number of locusts were swept into it and turned into a paste.

The civilians below are not immune. For them, as long as they complete the task, the loss is not important, let alone some mud-legged people.

The hurricane lasted for 2 minutes. The sky finally cleared up and the sun shone on the earth. However, the locust plague was far from over. The black mass on the distant horizon proved that there were still a large number of locusts on their way.

The gryphon knights patted the gryphon that sat down, as if to say: Old friend, this time you can stretch your muscles. Mere locusts can't break through our shields and armor, let's go!

Roar! ! !

The dragon's breath burned through a passage, relying on the battle energy body and the dragon knight's personal shield to fly at 0.5 times the speed of sound, killing all those in the way like a bullet.

Of course, the disgusting blood of the locusts also splashed all over him. He didn't know why the locusts' attacks seemed to have intensified. It was clear that their claws could not cause any harm to him before, but now his personal shield magic power was declining rapidly. With that breath.

Try to create a safe path forward for yourself.

boom!

The shield was broken, and Gerald now had to use his body to bear the damage.

hurry up! Hurry up!

We have seen spots of light ahead, and ahead is hope!

The flying dragon took Gerald out of the sea of ​​locusts like an arrow piercing the clouds. At this time, he was covered with wounds.

Gerald slowly slowed down and looked at the remains of locusts everywhere in front of him. Gerald realized that this was the work of the Griffin Knights. Has His Highness Rodney already sent out the Griffin Knights?

Then isn't my trip in vain?

"Report! General Eva has sent someone."

"Let him in"

A man with green curly hair walked in:

"Your Highness, the defense line in charge of General Eva is in critical condition and is requesting reinforcements from the Griffin Knights."

"I have just sent out the Griffin Knights, and there is no way to support you, but you don't have to worry, I have already written to my father, and the empire will send an army to help soon."

How long will it take? The day lilies are already cold!

Gerald requested again: "We only need three gryphon knights! Otherwise we really can't hold on!"

"I said it too! All the Griffin Knights have gone out to perform their missions. You can wait for them to come back. My defense line is also in danger."
