Chapter 588 The Battle of Giants
Maguire is a knight who serves with the Third Knights of Langton Guards. He is now a grand knight. As long as he accumulates some more merits, he will wait until the flag captain retires or When there is a vacancy for a flag captain in the regiment, he can become the new flag captain.
Because of this, Maguire is very eager to make contributions on the battlefield.
When Purficott dispatched knights from various knights to carry out cleaning tasks in the outer city, Maguire took the initiative and chose to sign up.
The Third Langton Guard Knights are not the main force guarding Langton, so the equipment of the Knights is updated slowly.
After several major knights had completed the change of armor of the Steam Knight, it was their turn to start the change of armor, and only the big knights could be assigned a Steam Knight Armor.
As one of the few great knights in the regiment, he naturally has a steam knight armor.
Maguire was full of praise for it. In his opinion, as long as he puts on this armor, there is nothing to be afraid of.
But today, as he and his Steam Knight Armor were dropped to the ground, accompanied by the huge God-killing Armor that was so huge that he had to look up to see it above his head, he advanced and launched into the attack on the Evil God Sect. Fighting, Maguire felt that he might have overestimated his courage.
Because the battlefield in front of him was beyond his imagination, as if the mythical era had returned and the legendary monsters were fighting in front of him.
Four giants more than ten meters tall fight each other. The sound of their weapons colliding can make Maguire dizzy. Not to mention that these four giants can crush several houses with every step they take, and even destroy them. The originally frozen ice surface was crushed, making the steam knight unsteady.
In this case, no matter how much Maguire wanted to make a difference, he really couldn't muster the courage to charge towards the two purple giants.
But as a knight, he still tried his best to contribute to this battle, so he avoided the four fighting giants and jumped to the top of a fairly solid building. He set up the recoilless rifle in his hand and began to attack one of the purple giants.
Although the shells accurately hit the target, unfortunately, the power of the recoilless rifle seemed a bit too small, and it basically did not cause any harm to the purple giant.
This frustrated Maguilton. He couldn't even participate in such a battle?
It has to be said that for the four fighting giants, the steam knights who may not be as tall as their feet really have no chance of participating in the battle.
Whether it is the God-killing Armor or the two purple giants in front of them, they all have a large enough size and defensive power to withstand the damage caused by the Steam Knight's attack.
But Maguire did not feel discouraged. He directly threw down the recoilless rifle in his hand and drew out the family heirloom knight sword he brought specially.
If it is a knight sword of ordinary size, it is naturally impossible to use it for the steam knight armor, because most knight swords are not large enough for the steam knight to hold it in the hand, even if the two-handed sword is in the steam knight It was as light as a one-handed sword in the knight's hand.
But the sword in Maguire's hand is larger than the average knight's sword. In addition, he specially recast the sword after becoming a steam knight. Now it is held in a steam armor. Just right in your hand.
With the sword in his hand, Maguire felt confident in his heart. He firmly believed that nothing could be cut with the sword in his hand.
So he rushed towards one of the purple giants without hesitation.
During the charge, Maguire felt that he was one of those heroes in chivalry novels who charge towards dragons, monsters and monsters, full of heroic and fearless aura. Along the way, he avoided the impact of the constant trampling from the eight legs of the four giants, and rushed along the broken ice to the front of the purple giant.
Looking closely, I saw that the legs of the purple giant were in the shape of sheep's hooves. Maguire didn't hesitate much, just strode forward, and then jumped high. Holding his family's knight sword high, he slashed at the ankle of the purple giant in front of him.
There was no way around it. Although the Steam Knight was more than two meters tall, he was still too short compared to the giant who was more than ten meters tall.
Even if Maguire tried his best to take off, the height he could attack was only the purple giant's calves and ankles, so he slashed at the purple giant's ankles with his sword without hesitation.
Because he once heard an ancient legend from the mythical age. It was said that there was an invulnerable hero who died because he was stabbed in the ankle.
So, he subconsciously believed that this was the key to the purple giant.
Then his sword struck forward and struck the purple giant's ankle violently.
It has to be said that Maguire's sword did have some effect. At least his sword cut in instead of being bounced off the purple giant's skin.
But it is not certain how effective this sword is, because even though Maguire's sword penetrated several inches, it seemed to have cut a big hole. Compared with the huge size of the purple giant, this is It's still just a small, insignificant hole.
It is like someone poking your heel with a toothpick. Even if the toothpick is poked in, you will only feel a lot of pain. It is difficult to say that it has caused great harm to you.
The same goes for the purple giant. Maguire's hard blow only made him cry out in pain and stagger.
Although Maguire's blow did not cause huge damage, it also created an opportunity for the Claw Wolf who was fighting the purple giant to attack. The ax in his hand once again turned into a giant sword. Then he released a powerful slash!
Just one sword strike left a huge wound on the chest of the purple giant, almost from the shoulder to the flank. The bones were even visible, and even the internal organs were faintly exposed.
When Maguire saw this, he quickly retreated. In this kind of giant-level battle, his sense of presence was too weak. He might be involved in the aftermath of the battle between the two sides and die. of silence.
Although Maguire really wants to make contributions and become a hero, this is not the way to change.
Although Maguire knows how to advance and retreat according to opportunities, not every knight participating in the battle can have this restraint.
A knight who seemed to have been hit on the head saw that Maguire's attack was effective, so he wanted to follow suit and rushed towards the purple giant who had been severely injured.
Moreover, he also used the surrounding building debris that had not completely collapsed, and flew high into the sky, trying to insert his weapon into the thigh of the purple giant.
Then, he was grabbed by another pair of arms behind the purple giant, and turned into a ball of iron-clad flesh with a pinch, becoming one of the knights who died today.
