Chapter 1 The Snow on the Top of the Mountain (1/2)
The long war between the The tessi empire and the sloan empire had already turned the recruits who had just been chased off to the battlefield from rookies who had limped at the sight of mangled limbs and broken arms into real soldiers who were numb to life and death in just a few days
Here, the word ”Veteran” only refers to the soldiers who survived three months and still remain alive
The soldiers recruited by the various provinces of the empire are constantly gathering in the central mountain range of mount Hailar and rushing forward to this area where swords and swords mingle with death
A few months ago, when he had entered the battlefield, the only surviving veteran had now become a true humanoid killing weapon, his eyes blazing with cold and merciless ferocity, retreating from the battle line to fight the last enemy, falling asleep before he reached the barracks and eating when he woke up
When he was full, he waited for the horn to ring and rushed out to fight
Before they died, they were able to drag a cushion on their back
Even so, many veterans still forgot everything and failed to retreat safely, falling on the battlefield forever
However, the senior commanders of the two countries had long grown tired of the war that had been fought for five or six years and had yet to come to an end
Countless battles, big and small, various tactics and tactics emerged one after another
The attack and defense were completely out of order, and the command post issued a daily, mechanical charge order, without the need for the law enforcement team to use a knife and sword with a faint red blood stain to drive away, the soldiers would reflexively and hoarsely rush to the enemy camp, like a meat grinder in the killing array
Pain and death can no longer make people feel that they are still alive, until they are killed by the enemy, they can finally be completely free
The sorcerers, who were equal in status to the nobility, also lost their usual high and elegant, ashen-faced, desperate spells and meditations
The precious magic crystal cores of the past were now being sent up from behind and squandered with great extravagance
Before anyone could appreciate their beautiful and magical crystal shapes or marvel at the surging waves of magic power, they were sucked out of their enormous energy
It disintegrated into worthless powder
Almost the entire back of the battlefield was filled with the special smell of magic spices that could increase the success rate of the cast
Breathing freely in the air without even sprinkling these expensive spices can still help concentrate and stabilize the mind
It only takes a mechanical chant to successfully cast the spell
Above the battlefield, there was an even more dangerous place
As the highest force of both empires and the supreme emperor in the air, Dragon knight, who was rarely seen, seemed to be a frequent visitor here
Becoming Dragon knight not only required a variety of trials and tests, but also strength, perseverance, and luck
Only those who met the requirements could obtain the right to elicit soul resonance before the Long Shen contract, and had the opportunity to obtain their dragon partners, and to sign an equal partnership contract to share glory
Sometimes a powerful warrior, even though he had passed many tests, would not be able to resonate with his soul, nor would he be able to become Dragon knight
In the end, two out of the 100,000 people who could become Dragon knight were lucky enough to receive the award
Such harsh screening conditions caused Dragon knight's number to remain low
Once he became Dragon knight, his combat spirit training would be greatly enhanced by the resonance with his dragon companions
There were also those who defeated the dragon by force and forced them to become their mounts, but they had to consider the wrath and endless pursuit of the dragon clan in the future
So far, almost no one has ever dared to take such a big risk in the world, and even if they did, they would soon be exterminated
The forced dragon mounts would not benefit from any combat training, which was the greatest advantage of the real Dragon knight
As long as there was time to grow, the knight with the dragon would soon become the most powerful being
The ordinary people could take a look at it and feel that it could be used for a lifetime of ostentatious talk
Now, the central mountain range of Hailar has become a duel ground for air mounted warriors from both countries
Every once in a while, when one looks up, one can see a giant, ferocious dragon roaring across the sky
With the advantage of high altitude, it spits out a series of fierce dragon's breath attacks and ploughs out a series of continuous screams on the ground
Or fiercely collide with an enemy dragon or other air force
Waves of magical shock waves erupted in the air, and the air was clearly rippled
It was not surprising that the demise of the god of dharma and the saint of swords, which had caused quite a stir in the past, and Dragon knight's invincible reputation also disappeared
Almost every month, at least one of Dragon knight and his mount, the dragon, fell on the battlefield, either killed by an equally powerful opponent, or unfortunately injured, fell into the enemy's camp, and was killed alive at the cost of sea strikes and heavy casualties by light armoured infantry that had never been seen before
There are living examples of ants biting dead elephants
Of the nearly 105 Dragon knight registered by the The sloan empire, 61 were gathered on the battlefield in the central mountain range of Hailar, and the remaining 44 were left in the imperial city to guard the palace
Compared to the sloan empire, Dragon knight of the The tessi empire only had a few dozen people, and the only major force that could compete with the The sloan empire was more than 600 griffin knights and thunder eagle knights
Although the individual combat power was not as strong as the dragon, it was in the combination of a large number and exquisite battle formation
Woo
A strange, eerie, long, sharp sound rang from the summit of the central mountain range of mount haila, which was covered by snow for thousands of years
A black armored man with a strange flute playing on his lips stood at the top of the snow-capped peak, like a sharp wind blowing through the black steel armour from head to toe, and the red cloak behind him made hunting sounds like a war flag
