Chapter 239: Temptation (Part 1)
Rex had no intention of being arrogant at all. The magic equipment she designed to attack the temple was huge in size. Although it could move on the road, it consumed even more magic cores than large puppets. There was no road here at all. The movement of large equipment relied on mechanical transmission, similar to war puppets.
The team of more than 5,000 people is divided into three parts: the vanguard, the central army, and the reserve team. The vanguard happens to be a flag regiment, with one thousand people. The thousand soldiers changed their equipment in advance, took off the supporting metal armor from the large truck transporting supplies, and installed them separately.
The war horses were also re-hanged with leather armor and fed water. After a brief rest, the flag group took the lead in heading towards the valley ahead.
It is said to be a valley, but it is actually very wide, and the narrowest part of the valley is more than one mile. The geology in the depths of this swamp is a bit strange. Although there are many huge rocks, the texture of these huge rocks is quite soft, and ordinary weapons can be easily inserted.
In late autumn, there were much less poisonous insects in the swamp, and the soldiers' faces were still covered with cotton cloth, and they sprayed countless deworming drugs all over their bodies. Bifano chose to attack this season because there were fewer poisonous insects in this season, otherwise he would not dare to lead his army into this swamp.
A flag regiment is equipped with two third-level mages. These two third-level mages have limited roles in combat, but they can provide alerts to the army and avoid being caught in magic traps. Bifano's personal soldiers died and injured dozens of people in a flash because they did not recognize the magic traps.
These two mages were sitting in the car. They were different from Qin Yin's mage. They may not exercise for a long time, be weak and have a pale face. One of them had a hint of purple in their eyes, which was a sign of drug poisoning. The mages who had been immersed in refining magic potions for a long time will always accumulate some toxins in their bodies.
A mage with inheritance will avoid physical damage through various cultivation methods. For example, Rex, her physical fitness is better than that of ordinary swordsmen, and Salin even has a physical strength comparable to that of a junior swordsman. Therefore, a real combat mage can ride a horse, but casting spells on horseback is similar to casting spells during flight, and the requirements for mages are too high.
These two mages have average combat abilities, but they are stable in the carriage and will not reduce their combat effectiveness.
The mages under Rex were also busy. The two magic chariots were in the middle of the army. The mages assembled the parts taken out by Rex and took an hour to splice them.
Then there is a magic core inlaid and a magic potion infused. A metal mechanical body that is eight meters long and four meters wide is considered as being assembled. The height of this magic equipment is also more than three meters, with edges and angularities, and sixteen mechanical feet below, which can move forward slowly. The front of this magic equipment is a honeycomb-like structure, with hundreds of magic arrays engraved in countless small holes.
Behind this magical equipment is another slightly smaller piece of equipment, but it is a movable magic trencher. This small trencher projectes magic projectiles, and it will burn when hitting any object.
Rex assembled for Bifano are two suppression magic weapons. The attack power of these two things may not be high. Facing an intermediate mage, it may not be able to hurt a mage's hair, but for ordinary soldiers, these two pieces of equipment are nightmares.
A slightly larger equipment can spray hundreds of flame bees in those small holes. Flame bees are an unpopular low-level magic because they do not have tracking ability. To be precise, the caster cannot control it at all. Apart from the low consumption, this second-level magic has almost no use.
If Rex hadn't assembled the equipment composed of hundreds of magic arrays, the only purpose of the Flame Bee might have been to set fire.
However, hundreds of flame bees are released at the same time, and one spray is a large area, without any magic locking. Small magic trenchers have similar effects. The difference is that the attack method of small magic trenchers is top-down and can cross city walls and other protections.
After Rex's magician assembled the two pieces of equipment, he handed it over to the low-level mage under Bifano. These two pieces of equipment do not have high requirements for the operator, and are only a little higher than the alchemy crossbow. Only a first-level mage can fully exert its power.
Salin knew very well the power of these two pieces of equipment, low-level magic. Although it was named as low-level, its attack power was actually amazing. When Salin first learned the first-level ice cone technique, the first-level ice cone could penetrate the stone wall. In his ancestral house, the stone wall was very hard, a little harder than granite.
Second-level magic can already penetrate most metal armor. Therefore, low-level magic is still extremely deadly for the army on the battlefield.
"Rex, it's only fifty miles away from the core area. The Red Pink Legion hasn't appeared yet, it's a bit weird."
"Sarin, you don't understand this." Rex was not only talking to Salin, but also teaching the magicians around her. She said to Salin: "The Red Pink Legion looks great, but it is actually a rootless grass. One of their soldiers will die less. The valley is too wide to set up ambush. If you fight against Bifano's army, Bifano can afford to lose, but the Red Pink Legion cannot afford to lose."
"Why not be very passive when you are pressed to the door and then take action?"
"The entrance to the temple must be very narrow. There, as long as a few hundred people are arranged, it can block the attacks of thousands of people and take turns to defend, which can reduce a lot of unnecessary losses. What's more, they don't believe that we can open the door to the temple."
Rex guessed that the Red Pink Legion had set up a lot of ambush on the road. However, Bifano's army suddenly turned, and the Tanggulas Empire invaded, and the ambush of the Red Pink Legion was useless. Instead, it hit the Blood Knight, causing the general to lose its troops.
The commander of the Red Pink Legion, the female magician, almost died at the hands of the Holy See, fled back to the swamp. She had already known that Bifano gathered troops in Huowu City and headed straight for her lair. In this case, she dared not fight with Bifano head-on, and could only collect everyone back to the valley and hide it into the temple.
The key to the temple was in her hands, and she didn't believe that Bifano could enter. Only her own man knew the secret of the temple, but he hated him for leaving this world and leaving a bunch of orphans and widows. Fortunately, the key was in her hands, otherwise she would have lost her place to stay.
The wolf-like forward, without any obstacles, came to an open area. The ground here was extremely flat, all of which were extremely soft stones.
It is two miles in a radius, without any obstacles, not only is there no rocks, hills, but there is not even a single grass.
The scouts were sent out everywhere, but no ambush was found. Bifano's central army soon arrived here, leaving only five hundred cavalrymen, standing by in the distance.
The magician under Bifano took out a piece of magic equipment in the form of a compass, compared the map, and quickly found the hidden secret.
Pfano came to Rex's chariot again and said humbly: "Your Highness, you have found the entrance, please help me open it."
Rex let out a gentle sigh and said to Salin: "Are you coming or I?"
"I'll go." Salin said, taking off the ring of gifts from Shika's hand and getting off the magic chariot. Zuolang followed Salin tightly. In the carriage, Rex called out the bear. The bear with armored armor followed Salin with his hammer.
Rex did not get out of the car. She took out a level seven reel and prepared to support Salin. The attack distance of level seven magic can exceed 500 meters. On the magic chariot, Rex can control the reel in detail.
Under the eyes of thousands of people, Salin came to the open space surrounded by soldiers.
After the four low-level mages salute to Salin, they said, "Sir, it's this."
Salin thought for a while and looked at the soldiers around him. Most of the soldiers had given up their war horses, and only the cavalry were still on the horse. Dozens of hard crossbows were aiming at this place from afar. If Salin was still a low-level mage, his heart would definitely be cold. Now, except for the alchemy crossbow, it would be difficult for other crossbows to penetrate his water-patterned shield.
"Let the soldiers retreat more than 45 meters." Salin's calculation ability was terrifying. He just glanced at him with his eyes and had already estimated how large the area would be if the entrance to the temple appeared.
The low-level mage whispered to the nearby officers, and the officers immediately commanded the soldiers to retreat.
Salin stroked the ring of gift on his left hand. It was this ring that changed his destiny. The second time he opened the temple, I wonder if this temple had been destroyed by the Red Pink Legion. The materials in the temple were very precious, even the stones on the ground were all steel rocks.
If Salin hadn't obtained the magic tower materials given to him by the teacher, he would have been moved and returned to the temple of the chaotic swamp and took away all the materials that could be taken away.
The white light spread out from Salin's left hand, and Salin recited the divine text engraved on his finger ring. The ground immediately twisted, and the flat stones cracked inch, like magic grids, and fragments moved regularly. A black hole entrance appeared silently.
It's not a teleportation array!
The black hole is more than ten meters high, and looks from all sides, and it is in the same shape. Hundreds of feather arrows suddenly shot out from the black hole. These feather arrows were aimless. Zuola slashed over with a sword. The sword energy was stimulated, and all the feather arrows shot at Salin were shattered by the sword energy.
Salin turned around and said to Bifano: "You can go in."
Bifano was suspicious that when he opened the temple, there was a lot of noise. Why was Salin so relaxed this time?
Of course he didn't know whether the key to opening the temple was whether the divine power was sufficient. Among the equipment left by the goddess, the divine power was already weak and pitiful, such as the gift ring, which did not store much divine power. The Red Pink Legion rarely opened the entrance to the temple, because the key in the legion could only be opened once every half month, and the divine power was slowly restored.
Salin's left hand absorbed the leaves of the Tree of Life. If it were not concealed, the people of the Holy See would probably feel the existence of this divine power thousands of miles away.
