Chapter 537: Haoyue’s Armor Transformation, Double Divine Swords (III)

Looks of unbelief appeared on the faces of all the assassins present..

After standing shocked for a short time, Sheng Yue immediately had an unsightly look. An incomparably unsightly one at that.

“Have you forgotten about what I said before we set out? I said that you are not permitted to go after the demon gods. What if your attack on Seere had failed? How do you suppose I would make an account to the Knight Temple?”

This heroic senior was extremely furious. Out of everyone here, he knew the best what Long Haochen and Cai’er meant for the Alliance. If Long Haochen were to die like that, to say nothing of himself, no one could account for that loss.

Long Haochen couldn’t show weakness at that time, because he was representing the Knight Temple as their Provisional Saint Knight Head.

“Temple Head, please calm down. I had already made meticulous preparations before that, so even if our attack on the Goblin Knight Demon had failed, Cai’er and I had certain ways to get away. I have a divine tool which can breach space and bring the two of us into another dimension, where we can stay for a long time. And it was by relying on it that the two of us made off after killing Seere.”

Hearing the words divine tool’, Sheng Yue had a blank look, and the other assassins had similar expressions. A divine tool enabling an escape through space is something that took the attention of everyone present. That was the first time they were hearing of such a divine tool. Especially to an assassin, the ability of escaping to another dimension for a long time was really attractive.

“Did you receive it from your Knight Temple?” Sheng Yue unconsciously blurted out.

Long Haochen shook his head, “It is mine, or more accurately speaking, our team’s.”

Sheng Yue’s glance turned to Cai’er, seeing his great-granddaughter nod without hesitation.

Letting out a low sigh, Sheng Yue remarked, “All right. Since that’s how things are, I won’t insist. No matter what, you have gotten rid of a demon god for our Exorcist Mountain Pass, which is a great success. However, we can predict that after what happened tonight, a demon counterattack will follow immediately. Their vengefulness is extremely high. Let’s gather the magical crystals everyone has collected from this operation in preparation for that, to show them the power of our magic cannons.”

“Yes!” All the seniors looked full of excitement.

How long had it been since they had such a delightful battle? Just as Long Haochen said, assassins are not most expert in defensive battles, but in night attacks and ambushes!

After sustaining such a surprise attack and losing so much power, even if the demons were to initiate an attack against the Exorcist Mountain Pass, their strength was limited. And, with the help from Long Haochen’s forbidden spell, the soldiers and manpower currently in the Exorcist Mountain Pass were back to their old looks.

“Temple Head, I request participating in the defensive battle.” Long Haochen immediately expressed.

Sheng Yue snorted, “Even if you didn’t want to participate, you’d still have to. Our Exorcist Mountain Pass is the most lacking in priests. Han Yu and you will be playing the role of our priests. Things couldn’t be better if you can once again activate the forbidden spell of that day.”

“Eh...” Long Haochen was speechless, secretly thinking, I’m a knight, not a priest! However, Sheng Yue had let him off with such difficulty, so he couldn’t express his dissatisfaction so bluntly.

On the contrary, Cai’er kept close to Long Haochen’s side with a sweet smile on her face. Her mood could hardly be any better, as if she had her own definite view of things.

The demons’ attack came without any prior indication. Upon daybreak, a demon army came to launch a sudden attack, with a tide of countless Dual Bladed Demons surging towards the Exorcist Mountain Pass. As they ran, their bladed hands repeatedly stabbed the ground, as they were letting out unpleasant swishing sounds. Darkness and reeking of blood were enveloping the Exorcist Mountain Pass once again.

From the defensive fort of the Exorcist Mountain Pass came out about half of the original forces forming the Brilliant Knight Regiment. In the past, they had always acted as a reserve force, only dispatched at the most critical times.

Even so, they had lost a half of their troops over this period of more than a year.

It wasn’t that Sheng Yue didn’t want to use them, but only, as the aid the Knight Temple sent out for the Assassin Temple, how could they lightly permit their visitors to bear the brunt of the danger? Therefore, unless it was unavoidable, Sheng Yue and Sheng Lingxin didn’t use this knight regiment.

The knights forming the Brilliant Knight Regiment were of course not acting as priests. They were expert in group battles and had an astonishing defensive strength, but their cultivation limited them, as they weren’t really expert at healing. But when defending the city, they were much more effective than your average soldier or powerhouse from the Assassin Temple.

The knights were serenely standing on a wall on the fortress. Alongside every one of them was a large amount of soldiers as well as powerhouses from the Assassin Temple.

A retaliation on a large scale was unavoidable and this battle would inevitably be incomparably dangerous. Sheng Lingxin, who was the most familiar with the demons’ military strategies had already thought of a plan on how to confront a full force demon attack. Therefore, all the trump cards at their disposal were taken out.

After the knights forming the Brilliant Knight Regiments were done forming up ranks, they all immediately turned around together, making a knight salute towards the second floor of the fortress. The knights knocked on their chest, producing crashing sounds that reverberated through the whole fortress. Somber shouts followed immediately, and these tinkling sounds became a large boost of morale for the soldiers.

Of course, Sheng Lingxin knew that they weren’t aiming this salute at him. The Brilliant Knight Regiment was under his command, but this kind of salute was only done among fellow knights.

Standing at Sheng Lingxin’s side, Long Haochen stepped across and firmly thumped his right fist onto his chest, abruptly lifting Rippling Light high, letting out a loud shout, “For the knights’ glory!”

This loud shout reverberated in the whole Exorcist Mountain Pass, and at the same time, a brilliant pillar of light erupted from his sword, forming the first stream of light shining upon the Exorcist Mountain Pass on the verge of dawn.

“For the knights’ glory!” Every knight present shouted at the same time.

They all knew that their Saint Knight Head had come to the Exorcist Mountain Pass. Although this person was merely a Provisional Saint Knight Head’, to the Brilliant Knight Regiment, it felt as if they were greeting a relative. To them, the important thing wasn’t who this Saint Knight Head was, but that the Knight Temple actually dispatched him to the Exorcist Mountain Pass.

Just what did it mean? It meant that the Knight Temple was supporting the Assassin Temple, that they hadn’t forgotten about them. Since their senior the Saint Knight Head had come, didn’t it mean that he would command them?

What’s more, Long Haochen had already made two great contributions on the first day after his arrival, and his incomparably powerful forbidden spell blanketed the whole Exorcist Mountain Pass. By now, his fame in the Exorcist Mountain Pass was nearly comparable to Sheng Yue’s, and to this Brilliant Knight Regiment, that was a matchless honor.

No other vocation valued honor as highly as the knights. Honor is the most glorious thing in a knight’s life, making their fighting strength the most terrible. At that very moment, for the Brilliant Knight Regiment that had been experiencing such exhaustion, it was as if they were regaining their spirits.

Even by only standing on the second floor and watching these warriors, he could sense the frenetic fighting intent coming out from them.

At Long Haochen’s side, Sheng Lingxin was now silently cursing at him. These knights’ treatment of him was undoubtedly very good too, but after all, this guy was from the Knight Temple! Even if Long Haochen had never had true dealings with them before, they unexpectedly showed such high morale just from his presence. How could this not be a terrible source of jealousy? But of course, this jealousy was absolutely not a negative feeling. The person in question was, after all, his son-in-law. They could be considered to already be from the same family.

Obviously, it was impossible for Sheng Lingxin to say that he felt no sense of loss. His position in the Assassin Temple was quite considerable, but compared to Long Haochen’s position in his Knight Temple, it paled into insignificance.

Sheng Lingxin rapidly dispelled these thoughts and passed down a series of orders.

“Are the magic cannons all ready?”

“The preparations are done. A total of 21 intact magic cannons have been put into the battlefield. They have all been charged with magic crystals.”

Sheng Lingxin asked after a short time of ponder, “For how long can they last in battle?”

“If the attack persists, we can last with the magic crystals we have on hand for twelve hours. To prevent overheating, the best would be to undergo a process of cooling off once every quarter of an hour.”

Sheng Lingxin nodded. The renewed possibility for the Magic Cannons to be used greatly boosted his confidence.

“Are the assigned teams in position?”

“All ready!”

“Good!” Sheng Lingxin’s eyes shone with vigor, then he let out an awe-inspiring aura, “Give my order that after the Dual Bladed Demons start their attack, the soldiers will join hands with the Brilliant Knight Regiment to keep them outside the walls. The Magic Cannons will all be aimed at the aerial threats. In case the enemy air force comes, let’s give them a hard beating.”

“Yes!”

Long Haochen was still standing beside Sheng Lingxin. Hearing his series of orders, he could tell that the Exorcist Mountain Pass’ shape was not so good. Although the Alliance kept sending reinforcements, the endless demon offenses finally caused the full consumption of the fort’s defensive tools. This time, they were able to replenish their magic cannons, but the Exorcist Mountain Pass was still vastly inferior in terms of strength. Now, they could only hope that the Six Great Demon Gods won’t join the battle. Otherwise, this battle will be quite hard.

“Chief, it’s an emergency, have a look!” A soldier surveying the situation from afar suddenly shouted.
