Chapter 156 Fire and Shield
The broad dragon wings were spread out and waved slowly, blocking the sunlight above the knights. The edge of the huge dragon body hovering in the air seemed to be inlaid with a golden edge.
The same golden vertical pupils, strong body, ferocious horns, and thick scales as in the rumors
Under the extremely oppressive dragon power, everyone in the Lionheart Knights held their breath. This was Cassius, the "Purgatory Scourge", the embodiment of arrogance and violence. The red dragon who single-handedly destroyed 30,000 coalition forces was also the one they... The goal of the sub-task.
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel shaken.
This kind of thing is simply invincible. How could they imagine that they could kill such a terrifying monster?
The monster in the sky opened its mouth, revealing its fangs, and white smoke that was hot enough to distort the air lingered in the corners of its mouth.
"I heard that you want to slay the dragon?"
Sparks danced in the golden vertical pupils.
Freed looked up at the sky, his expression frozen.
"Tariq, did you die at the hands of this kind of monster?"
"Even an excellent knight like you was buried in the sea of fire, how could I possibly defeat him."
He subconsciously rubbed the pocket watch in his hand, shook his head, and murmured to himself.
"Captain! What to do?"
But soon, the reminder from his subordinates made him come back to his senses and realize that this was on the battlefield, and they were at a critical moment of life and death!
Years of training have made him instinctive. The "Black Lion Knight" raised the sword of oath in his hand and shouted the order: "Everyone, listen to the order and protect the connection!"
The Lionheart Knights simultaneously raised the silver swords in their hands, which emitted a dazzling light. As the holy oath spell took effect, shining chains connected them one after another. In the end, more than twenty people were connected to each other, and they raised their hands one after another. The heavy shield in his hand is like an indestructible shining fortress.
They attack and defend as a whole and take care of each other.
Damage hitting any one of the members will be divided into more than twenty parts.
This also makes the Lion-Hearted Knights a mobile fortress on the battlefield, which can be defended or destroyed. Any general is afraid of seeing dozens of Lion-Hearted Knights rushing toward their position. They are known as the "Lion Fortress" existence.
Cassius was still hovering in the sky, waving his wings unhurriedly, observing the knights condescendingly.
"Is this the turtle shell that Doro said?"
"It's interesting."
The troops of the Ember Kingdom have completely surrounded this place. Cassius is not worried about these knights escaping at all. Instead, he becomes curious and wants to study the special sub-class of the Bosque family - [Lionheart Knight]
Thinking of this, Cassius waved his claws towards the ground.
【Scratching】
A vaguely claw-shaped flickering magic force field materialized in front of the red dragon. As he waved his claws at will, these magical powers were directed to the Lionheart Knights on the ground.
Fred looked at the huge scratches coming from the sky, suddenly looked nervous, and shouted loudly:
"Attention all! Defensive stance!"
There was only a soft "wow" sound, and the Lion-Hearted Knights neatly raised the silver shields engraved with the lion's emblem in their hands, letting the silver shields gather tightly together to form an airtight defensive shield above their heads.
"Hiss-"
With the harsh sound of metal friction, three long and narrow scratches appeared on the giant shield that penetrated the shield.
The strong power was transmitted to everyone through the shield, and it was almost like smashing their formation with a claw.
"Hold it!"
Fred hissed.
As those radiant chains flashed alternately, the huge power was distributed to each Lionheart Knight, making their complexions become ferocious, and bursts of sweat broke out on their heads.
In order to withstand Cassius's attack, even the ground was trampled into shallow pits.
Cassius looked at the still compact shield formation and sighed in surprise:
"Tsk tsk, it's really a strong turtle shell. No wonder it caused so much trouble to Doro." Although it was just a casual dragon trick, with Cassius's current spell intensity and his own powerful power, even if it was casual, The attack is enough to easily defeat ordinary high-level warriors.
"So, can you guys withstand the flames?"
Cassius narrowed his eyes and opened his jaw slightly.
A fiery light welled up deep in his throat.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, blazing flames poured out from the red dragon's mouth, rushing towards the Lionheart Knights on the ground.
"It's dragon's breath!"
The adjutant reminded loudly.
"So hot, so hot."
This is the feeling in everyone's heart.
Feeling the fiery breath coming towards their faces, everyone in the Lionheart Knights suddenly thought of the rumor that the "Purgatory Natural Disaster" burned down the coalition forces with flames.
But they didn't know that this was just a spew of Cassius's deliberately controlled power.
Facing the terrifying flames, the Lionheart Knights subconsciously wanted to flee in all directions. Not only were sweat pouring out of their bodies, but even the hands holding their swords were trembling slightly. But years of training have allowed them to temporarily stay where they are without receiving orders.
"You can't escape. If you spread out, you will die faster!"
"If you want to survive, just bear the pressure!"
Freed ordered sharply.
The Lionheart Knights continued to maintain their giant shields against the sky. A thin film of light appeared outside the shields, blocking the continued invasion of the flames.
"Greyhound Guards!"
"Black Lion Knight" Fried finally roared
——This is the trump card of the Lionheart Knights. They can summon radiant spirits and gather the strong will of all knights to attack the enemy.
The huge male lion phantom emerged from the tight formation of the Lion Heart Knights, lifelike, roaring and roaring like a real lion, temporarily holding back the flames, and even had a faint tendency to launch a counterattack.
"That's it!"
"We are the invincible lion-hearted knights!"
Freed shouted, he inspired his comrades like Tarik in his memory, and he also hoped that he could be as invincible and shining as the White Lion Knight.
"Oh?"
"Interesting spell, it turns out that it is a turtle that can only bite people."
Cassius in the sky stared at the lion spirit and suddenly became interested.
In his opinion, the overall strength of Bossk's Lionheart Knights is far more powerful than Luckman's North Wind Eagle Guard. Their comprehensive Holy Oath spell ability alone is not comparable to those of the flying Eagle Guard.
"With such a thick defense, it would be a pity not to test their limits."
"Then, let me play with you."
A ferocious smile appeared on Cassius's face.
The violent fire element energy filled into the lungs along the basal blood vessels, and finally spurted out.
The fire suddenly became stronger and the temperature rose sharply. The lion spirit body, which had just barely been able to resist, let out a wail one after another, and the illusion was gradually consumed by the flames.
