Chapter 983 - 135: Turn the Tide! (Part 4)
Given the density of a Dwarf’s body, they would instantly sink to the bottom if they fell into a cesspool. In this kind of giant wave sweeping the shore, they disappeared to the bottom with just one rise and fall.
In this situation, even if there were battleships for rescue, it would be too late to save them.
What’s more, what infuriated the Dwarves on the cliff was that a large number of Manan Knights emerged from Rapids Castle, moving on water as they pursued the remnants of Hesse Territory’s defeated troops mercilessly.
This act of flooding the seven armies, they played it extremely smoothly.
If there were no surprises, they would leverage the power of the giant waves to annihilate the fleeing defeated troops.
They perfectly utilized the advantage of the narrow terrain near the shore, drowning hundreds of elite-level troops in one go, turning it into a textbook application of Divine Magic.
But the Griffin Knights on the mountaintop laughed excitedly and gave Joseph the same sarcastic remark: "How could you know military tactics but we do not? Would we launch a reckless attack without preparation?"
Su Li also took a deep breath, exclaiming, "Finally, they’ve entered the trap! Drumrolls and bugles, full attack!"
The next moment, the bright military music sounded, the signal for the full army attack, with no more concealment or reservation! Unlike the last time when the Mercenary Corps spearheaded the attack, this time it was the entire army of Hesse Territory fully engaged.
Over a thousand knights gleaming in the sunlight formed ranks, and the vast infantry arrays filled the river valley.
Meanwhile, Su Li raised the Holy Relic of Glory · Water-Repelling Pearl high in his hand!
The azure blue glow of the Water-Repelling Pearl spread over the surging muddy waves like a stroke of Divine Spirit, immediately paving a solid and extraordinary path of light. The giant wave that once devoured lives seemed to be smoothed and solidified by an invisible giant hand, transforming into a peculiar battlefield glinting with blue light, ready for a charge!
"Goddess protection! Charge on the waves, for Hesse!" Hilude’s clear voice pierced through the battlefield chaos, like the sun breaking through the clouds. She raised her longsword blazing with golden flames, taking the lead, the first to ride her Griffin down the low hills, stepping onto the azure light domain. Under her command, the Divine Generals Dietrich and Demster, like burning comets, led over a thousand Sun Goddess Knights into battle!
The hooves trampled on the "water surface," producing deep, drum-like thuds, splashing not water but fragments of blue light. This golden torrent galloped over the azure river surface without losing any speed, with armor reflecting the glow of Divine Power and water, like heavenly deities descended! Their charging path was the right bank of the river valley where waves had rampaged, now an open road for them to storm the enemy formation!
This scene made all the Manan Knights’ pupils suddenly contract, their faces filled with incredible astonishment! The devastation they called the Sea God’s Fury, summoned with great sacrifice, became the Divine Sacred Ground of the enemy’s holy cavalry charge?!
"Kill!" Hilude’s sword tip pointed straight at the remaining Black Lynx Knight Order and the re-grouping Manan Knights on the riverbank. The Blazing Sun Knights erupted in an earth-shattering battle cry, golden Spiritual Energy gathering above the knight array like a burning sun, reflecting off the cold river waters till they felt scorching!
The remnants of the Black Lynx Knights, just struggling ashore from near drowning, and those Manan Knights who were ready to pounce on the stragglers, barely had time to regroup into an effective formation before the golden cavalry charged through them like a storm!
The lances of the Blazing Sun Knights were like Spears of Judgment, precise and deadly. With a flash of golden light, the fine plate armor, the pride of the remaining Black Lynx Knights, was pierced like paper by spear tips imbued with Fiery Sun Divine Power! The knights’ powerful impact tore and shattered the chaotic enemy formation completely. The sound of screams, breaking bones, and twisting metal replaced the previous roar of waves instantly. The Manan Knights tried to parry with tridents engraved with the Sea God’s runes, but under the absolute power and the crushing force of the Divine Attribute, the tridents broke, casting knights and their mounts flying into the still raging river not covered by the Water-Repelling Pearl. They vanished in the blink of an eye.
