Tome of Blood Chapter 302

  The change of the magic shield over Beigang is quite conspicuous on the entire battlefield.

   On the side of the Boulder-Violet coalition forces, the third prince Philip also saw it.

  He frowned, and looked at Earl Lint beside him:

   "What's going on here? Is there still a transcendent of Chiyang rank hidden in Beigang?"

  Earl Lindt also looked surprised.

  He thought for a while, then shook his head slightly:

"No, according to our informant in Beigang, the only spellcaster in Beigang who can maintain the magic shield should be the head of the Mercenary Association branch hired by Castel, and the other party is only Yinyue. "

  After listening to Earl Lint's words, the third prince Philip frowned even deeper.

  He squinted his eyes and looked at the gradually stable magic defense system above Beigang, and said:

   "Go check it out and see what's going on."

  Charlotte felt that she had entered a very strange state.

  Through the defense system of Beigang, she found that her consciousness and the whole Beigang seemed to be fused together, and the bright stars in the magic network represented the creatures in Beigang city.

  She can hear the voice of everyone in Beigang City through the entire magic defense network, and can also communicate with every soldier stationed in Beigang City through the magic network.

She could hear the nobles talking about her behind their backs, and she could even hear some nobles who were dissatisfied with the status quo gathered together to secretly plan to surrender after the city was broken, and even those who took the initiative to secretly contact the enemy forces outside the city and provide information The "traitor"...

   War is what it is.

  You can never guarantee that everyone will be loyal from beginning to end.

  In this era, whoever wins and who they help is the silent majority.

  And all kinds of discussions in the dark, soon turned into consternation after noticing the change of Beigang's magic shield.

  As for the source of everything, Charlotte, who controlled the entire defense system of Beigang, did not listen to the various voices in Beigang City any more.

  After getting used to the manipulation of the magic defense network, she took the initiative to touch the little starlight with her consciousness and said:

   "I am Charlotte, Earl of Castres."

   "I will be with you and protect Beigang together."

   This time, Charlotte did not pull out the banner of the Holy King.

  The ethereal and melodious voice resounded in everyone's hearts, carrying a kind of calming power.

  Looking at the gradually stabilizing magic shield above the city, those keen transcendents quickly realized what:

   "It's the Earl, the Earl has stabilized the magic shield!"

  Some transcendents who knew the difficulty of maintaining the entire Beigang magic shield showed surprise.

  However, more ordinary superhumans are just excited and delighted.

  Especially in the Beigang army, the low-ranking nobles who commanded the battle had their eyes lit up one after another, and quickly encouraged the soldiers whose morale was getting lower due to the deteriorating situation:

   "Did you hear that? The Earl personally stabilized the magic shield!"

   "Steady! Victory belongs to us!"

   With the re-stabilized magic shield and Charlotte's encouragement, the morale of Castel's side, which had begun to drop rapidly, quickly stabilized again.

  With the protection of the magic shield, the defenders of Castel on the Beigang Bridge gradually regained some disadvantages.

  Although they are still not the regular opponents of the Boulder-Violet elite who are constantly approaching, at least... they are not in a one-sided state.

  Viscount Leon-Castel, who has been concerned about the battle situation, also noticed the changes on the battlefield. Standing on the high platform base of the Mage Tower, he could have a panoramic view of the Beigang Bridge.

  Watching the elite troops of the principality being attacked sluggishly, he lifted his spirits and said excitedly:

   "It works! It works!"

   "Relying on the terrain of the Beigang Bridge, with the help of the defense of the magic shield, it is still possible to defend desperately at all costs!"

  However, when the old Viscount was thinking about whether to send more soldiers to support the battle on the Beigang Bridge, Charlotte's voice suddenly rang in his ears:

  "Castel's vassals listened to the order and abandoned the Beigang Bridge. All the troops withdrew in an orderly manner, sticking to Beigang and Castel Bridge."

  After listening to Charlotte's words, the old Viscount was slightly taken aback, and suddenly stunned.

   "What? You said that the person maintaining the magic shield in North Harbor is Charlotte of Castel?!"

  In the Boulder-Violet coalition army, listening to the soldiers' report, the third prince Philip looked wonderful.

  He looked at the magic defense shield covering the entire Beigang, and shook his head quickly:

"This is impossible!"

   "The magic defense network of Beigang was established by the first Earl of Castel. It has been strengthened by the Castel family through generations. Only Chi Yang can fully exert its effect..."

   "She is just a child who has not entered the stage for a long time. How can she maintain the magic shield of the entire Beigang?"

   "His...His Royal Highness, it is said that she prayed to the gods and received the blessings of the gods..."

   The soldier stammered.

   "God's blessing?"

  The third prince was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly:

   "Ridiculous!"

   "Not to mention whether Charlotte can attract the attention of the gods, how can the gods above care about the secular war? This is not a holy war against heretics!"

  However, after hearing what the third prince said, the nobles accompanying him couldn't help but glanced at him, and then quickly lowered their heads.

  Noticing their subtle expression changes, the third prince immediately came back to his senses, and said angrily:

   "What do you mean? Could it be that you really believed Castel's nonsense?!"

   At this moment, Earl Lint, who had been paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, suddenly froze, and couldn't help but say:

   "Your Highness, look at the bridge!"

  The third prince suppressed his anger, cast his gaze in the direction of the battlefield, and then froze for a moment.

  I saw that Castel's side started to retreat amidst the sound of horns.

  Not only that, but even the Castel fleet in the Dorne River channel began to withdraw towards North Harbor.

  The accompanying nobles of Bold and Violet were also stunned:

   "Are they... abandoning the Beigang Bridge?"

   "I'm afraid so, it seems... they plan to rely on Beigang's defensive magic to stick to it."

  The third prince squinted his eyes for a while, then thoughtfully said:

   "It seems that our little earl is not so easy to maintain magic defense..."

   "It is impossible for Castel to have Chi Yang. If there was, this war would not be what it is now. Charlotte was able to maintain the magic shield, and I am afraid that he paid a corresponding price."

   "Notice, the whole army will attack and surround Beigang!"

  After listening to the third prince's order, Earl Lint frowned slightly.

  I don't know why, seeing the Castel army retreating into Beigang in an orderly manner, he always felt a little uneasy.

  However, the strength of Castel's side is far from that of the coalition forces, even with the protection of magic defense.

  In Earl Lint's view, he has an overwhelming advantage, and it is only a matter of time before he captures Beigang.

  So, he didn't say much in the end, but gave an order:

   "Blow the horn, attack!"

  The horn sounded, and Polder-Violet's army quickly launched a new round of attack.

  After occupying the Beigang Bridge, the vanguard troops with extraordinary standing as the main force crossed the river first and reached the north bank.

   And when night fell and the day's fighting was over, the main force of the entire coalition force also crossed the river smoothly, and completed the encirclement of Beigang on the north bank.

  Beigang has also become an isolated city connected to the mainland only by the Castel Bridge.

   "Master Earl, why did you completely abandon the North Shore? Now we have completely become an isolated city!"

  In North Harbor, Viscount Leon-Castel looked at the girl standing on the viewing platform of the Mage Tower looking at the sea level, and couldn't help asking.

   As night fell, the two sides temporarily ceased fighting, and the magic shield did not need to be maintained. Charlotte also temporarily released her hands.

  After hearing what the old Viscount said, she did not answer directly, but gave a new order while looking at the sea level in the distance:

   "Secretary Len Castel, let me know and get ready for battle. We will have a big battle tonight."

   "Big...big battle?"

  The old Viscount was stunned.

  Charlotte nodded slightly, then looked towards the sea level, and said with a smile:

   "Yes, big battle."

   "Our reinforcements are coming."

  Following Charlotte's line of sight, Viscount Leon-Castle turned his gaze to the sea, but he couldn't see anything except the fog gradually rising on the sea level.

"in addition…"

  Charlotte paused, took out another parchment scroll from her arms, and handed it to the old Viscount:

   "The people on this list, please control them for the time being."

  Viscount Leon-Castle opened the parchment in doubt, and was slightly taken aback when he saw the first name.

  No him, that was the name of his eldest son, Derek de Leon-Castel.

   At the same time, thirty nautical miles away.

  In the sea fog that gradually filled in, dozens of galleys were raising their sails and heading towards Beigang like ghosts at a speed of seven knots per hour.

  Earl Ulster stood on the flagship "Queen", looking through the telescope at the brightly lit North Harbor in the distance, and the Boulder-Violet Combined Fleet moored in the open sea surrounding North Harbor.

   After a while, he put down the binoculars, glanced at the bright moon gradually emerging from the dark clouds in the sky, a trace of red appeared in his eyes, and then he smiled:

   "The moonlight tonight is really good."

   After finishing speaking, he turned around and looked behind him:

   "Everyone, what do you think?"

   "Hey hey hey hey..."

  On the deck, all of them were wearing black cloaks. They had already prepared their weapons, and the figures with scarlet eyes were faintly visible and laughed.

   You can't stop updating, it's really abolished, this is not a problem of full attendance, but at the starting point, stopping updating means a high probability of entering the palace, so you must avoid interrupting updating anyway...

   As for full attendance, I haven't had full attendance for several months, and now the update is not for full attendance. The requirement for full attendance is at least 4000 words per day.
