Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 121 Commander
The next morning, the Hetan City army assembled again.
After a night's rest, most of the soldiers were in good spirits.
Only a few people looked like they hadn't had enough rest.
"Open the door."
Madeline's voice was a little hoarse.
Her eyes were slightly red, obviously she didn't sleep well. Marvin held Isabel in one hand and held the Holy Grail in the other, standing there calmly, as if what happened last night had nothing to do with him.
Madeline gave Marvin a hateful look.
I was a little irritated last night, but this bastard just patted his butt and went to sleep.
Because of the existence of the legal contract, she can't do anything to him!
This made Madeline extremely crazy. She had no place to vent her passion, so she could only hold it in. As a result, the city lord's sleep quality was naturally not very good.
In addition, she had to choose spells in the early morning, so she hardly slept a wink that night.
Naturally, everyone saw what Madeline was like, but since the city lord had a bad reputation , no one dared to say anything in private.
Marvin noticed that the group of vampires were standing closer to the center today.
When he looked at them, the cloaked man Gwen nodded to him, but the Kanos beside him was a little unfriendly.
The people of the Silver Church were also ready.
Under the resistance of several powerful shield defenders, the door that was supposed to be blocked suddenly opened.
"forward……"
Before Madeline's voice fell, dozens of black shadows flew out from behind the door frantically!
These dark shadows pounced on the soldiers and knights frantically, and even the people from the Chief Wizard Group could not avoid them.
Gargoyle!
They actually lurked behind the door for a whole night.
Several unlucky soldiers were grabbed by the gargoyle and dropped from a high altitude, with no one knowing whether they were alive or dead .
Others had their heads scratched by the sudden sneak attack. For a moment, the entire army was in chaos.
Madeline raised her finger angrily and threw two fireballs at them, smashing the two gargoyles into pieces.
The wizards of the Chief Wizard Group also activated their force field protections, preparing to fight back.
However, it didn't work.
More gargoyles are flying out of the passage. Their flight is silent. Although their speed is slower than that of vampires, it is real flying.
This is where their trouble lies.
For a moment, everyone in the first hall exclaimed one after another, the knights drew their swords and slashed, the shield guards raised their shields to resist, and the people of the Silver Church also fought on their own!
There were more and more gargoyles, and in an instant there were more than two hundred of them!
…
"We can't go on like this!"
"Damn it, a gargoyle, a creature that acts on instinct, would also launch a sneak attack? It must be those banshees who instigated it."
"Sure enough, reality and games are still very different."
Marvin's heart trembled, and he grabbed Isabel to protect her.
He looked at the chaotic hall, made a prompt decision, and raised the Holy Grail high!
The next second, he suddenly activated a magic halo on the Holy Grail - [Holy Light Expulsion].
This is a witchcraft that does not have a very strong substantive effect, but when facing evil creatures, it can have a strong expelling effect.
A bright light shone from Marvin's hand, instantly illuminating the entire first hall and the dark corridor.
A large number of gargoyles chirped, and under the illumination of the holy light, they folded their wings, perched on the stone walls of the hall, and stared at everyone with eager eyes.
The Holy Light Expulsion did not harm them, but it made them feel very uncomfortable.
Gargoyles always act according to their instincts or the orders of their masters. Marvin knows that their master is a sleeping lich. It is impossible for a lich to command gargoyles, so these evil creatures attack the enemy based on their instincts.
"Only one minute at most!" Marvin shouted, "They will quickly adapt to this intensity of holy light and launch a second round of attack."
Madeline nodded and immediately ordered: "Everyone regroup!"
"Shield defenders, protect the wizards. Knights, form a formation. Wanderers, disperse. Everyone, protect yourself and the people around you. Don't get caught by the gargoyles."
"The wizard is responsible for killing all these guys!"
Madeline said through gritted teeth.
Because of her carelessness, she did not have anyone cast a detection spell before opening the door, which resulted in the deaths of at least three soldiers and many more being seriously or slightly injured.
This kind of low-level mistake could have been avoided!
"Calm down, you must calm down." She looked at Marvin deeply. Now was not the time to settle personal grudges.
However, at this moment, Marvin strode over and said, "This is not the best choice."
Suddenly someone drew his sword and asked, "How dare you question the city lord's order?"
"I'm just stating a fact." Marvin looked at Madeline coldly: "This is not the best choice."
"Gargoyles have a very high immunity to most witchcraft. Only force field witchcraft can cause considerable damage to them."
"It's not worth it to use witchcraft to deal with gargoyles."
Madeline took a deep breath. Being questioned by Marvin in front of everyone, if it was someone else, she would probably have just cast a spell and killed him!
But she had no choice. The effect of the legal contract took effect.
"So what do you want to do?"
She asked through gritted teeth.
Marvin said calmly: "Leave the temporary command of the attack on the second hall to me. I will lead you to perfectly eliminate all the monsters in the second hall! As long as you follow my method, I can guarantee that there will be no more casualties next time!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Baron Marvin, is he too arrogant? Even if he is a guest invited by Lady Madeline, he is now directly taking over the show and even boasting that there was no damage in the second hall?
This is simply crazy!
They had all seen the gargoyle attack just now. Dozens of gargoyles pounced over, and the sky was dark and the earth was dim.
It is very difficult to destroy this kind of flying unit.
According to Madeline's plan, it would be great if fewer people died.
Marvin actually said he had a way to avoid any casualties?
No one believed him.
There was indifference and suspicion in everyone's eyes.
If he hadn't just used the magic holy grail to expel the gargoyle and buy everyone some time, someone would have probably gone up and taken him down.
Marvin ignored everyone else and just looked at Madeline.
…
Madeline was very unhappy!
Because this time, Marvin did not use the power of the Law Contract, but had a normal conversation.
She really wanted to shake her head and say: This is my army.
But looking at the sky full of gargoyles, unless he was willing to use the four-ring group attack spell in advance, or Collins took action, there would definitely be a large number of casualties!
Others didn't believe in Marvin, but she did.
This guy knows the Scarlet Monastery like the back of his hand.
He used that method yesterday to trick himself into the secret room, which shows that this person is meticulous and would never speak nonsense.
If he said there was no damage, then there must be no damage.
Madeline took a deep breath.
"Thirty seconds left," Marvin reminded.
"Get lost!"
Among Madeline's personal guards, a knight was so angry that he drew his sword and stabbed Marvin fiercely.
"stop!"
Madeline yelled angrily.
The whole hall became quiet.
The knight froze, looked at Marvin hatefully, and stopped where he was.
The gargoyles on the ceiling seemed to be ready to move.
"If you fail, can you take the responsibility?" Madeline said seriously.
"If I lose, the Holy Grail will be yours," Marvin said calmly.
"But if I succeed, I'll just ask for the Commander's share of the spoils. Is that ok?"
Madeline felt resentful in her heart: Damn it, I am yours now, and you are still thinking about those spoils.
What on earth is going on in this man's mind? No wonder he can have such a good chat with that old guy Collins.
…
"Command is yours. You have less than twenty seconds to give the order."
Madeline didn't look at Marvin, but glanced coldly at everyone.
She was making it clear that everyone must follow Marvin's orders.
Although many people were very unconvinced, and the knight who drew the sword was so angry that his face turned red, they had to obey Madeline's orders.
Marvin stood up and looked at Collins: "The key to destroying the gargoyles lies in the knights of the Silver Church."
Collins smiled and said, "At your disposal, Your Excellency."
Marvin immediately issued a series of instructions, and with just a few simple sentences, he formed a set of tactics specifically targeting the gargoyles!
Some people showed expressions of sudden realization and admiration, while others were skeptical but still did as they were told.
The gargoyles on the ceiling began to stir.
However, it must be said that the group of people reorganized by Madeline are indeed elite.
If it were an ordinary adventurer, it would probably take him half a day to understand what Marvin wanted to do.
Unlike this group of soldiers, they all assembled immediately according to Marvin's instructions.
Sizzle!
A gargoyle couldn't hold back and rushed into the range of the holy light.
The holy light made him feel uncomfortable, but his killing instinct still suppressed this feeling .
He aimed at the man who seemed to have the least armor and flew over at a low altitude!
The next second, all the gargoyles took off and rushed towards the crowd.
More than a hundred gargoyles came in several groups, like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey, and came with great momentum .
The knights of the Silver Church held their weapons tightly.
This group of knights consists of only three teams, with about thirty people.
But in Marvin's plan, the key to defeating the gargoyles is these people.
…
Although there was lighting, the first hall suddenly became dim.
The first wave of gargoyles rushed over.
"As expected." Marvin sneered. All the gargoyles aimed at the wizard with the lowest armor!
As for the wanderers, Marvin asked them to sneak so that the gargoyles would not attack them first.
"It's instinct after all..."
And every wizard is accompanied by a shield guardian and a knight of the Silver Church!
The first gargoyle swooped down and tried to grab the wizard, but the shield guardian next to him immediately stopped him and raised his shield!
Shield strike!
The gargoyle's attack was thwarted and it was ready to spread its wings and fly away. However, at this moment, the Silver Church Knight who had been prepared for a long time took action!
boom!
With a crisp sound, Guderian hit the gargoyle's waist with a hammer, and actually smashed the gargoyle into pieces!
