Chapter 539: Research on Buff Spells

Although their defense was slightly inferior to the Swadian Sergeants who had used the tower shields, their combat strength was much higher than the Swadian Sergeant’s.

Rhodok Sergeants’ weapon was a long-handled hook and sickle. In addition to their exquisite combat techniques, they could easily kill the charging heavy cavalry. These fierce heavy footmen could rely on their combat techniques to fight against level 6 troop class soldiers.

On the Continent of Caradia, the Kingdom of Rhodoks, which did not have heavy cavalry, relied on Rhodok Sergeants and Rhodok Sharpshooters to stand firmly among the many kingdoms, becoming one of the overlords of the Continent of Caradia.

Behind Rhodok Sergeants were a dense number of Rhodok Sharpshooters.

The siege crossbows in their hands were definitely not a joke.

The 350 Rhodok Sharpshooters were only arranged in five rows. Each row had close to 70 of them. However, the distance between the two rows had reached two meters. This was their shooting space.

With 16 or 17 rows of Rhodok Sergeants defending them against the cavalries, what the Rhodok Sharpshooters needed to do was to shoot out the crossbows in their hands and ruthlessly kill the incoming cavalries.

With their shooting range that exceeded 300 meters, the heavy cavalries that wanted to charge at the defensive line set up by Rhodok Sergeants would have to pay a heavy price.

After the 350 Rhodok Sharpshooters, there were 350 Vaegir Marksmen. They were also densely arranged in five rows. The dense formation was very advantageous to them. They were famous for their dense covering firepower, fast, accurate, and ruthless were synonymous with them.

If a cavalry was lucky enough to break through the Rhodok Sharpshooters’ firepower, the Vaegir Marksmen’s dense arrow rain would form a second fatal defense line.

After the 350 Vaegir Marksmen, there were 490 official mages and 100 mage apprentices.

The power of the mages was beyond doubt. Their spells were not to be trifled with.

Just the 490 official mages alone could summon 2,450 golems in front of Rhodok Sergeants when the enemy cavalry charged over.

Each golem’s attack and defense would not be lower than a level-5 heavy-armored infantryman. They were very strong, but they were a little clumsy. They could crush an ordinary army, but they could only be used as meat shields and cannon fodder against an elite army.

Behind the mages and mage apprentices were 350 Ravenstern Rangers.

They were not like Vaegir Sharpshooters, who had powerful and swift covering fire. However, their shooting ability, if not their range, was stronger than Rhodok Sharpshooters. Steadiness, accuracy, and ruthlessness were synonymous with them. At the same time, their close combat strength was also extremely strong, and they were not afraid of close combat at all.

It was most suitable to use them to cover the rear. Even at the last position, their 150-meter range could hit the front row of Rhodok Sergeants 100 meters away. Any heavy cavalry that escaped the net and broke through the golems that the mages summoned would become their prey.

The soldiers were all elite troop class 5 soldiers. They quickly followed Baheshtur’s orders and arranged themselves into a formation, preparing for the upcoming battle.

At this moment, the opponents of Kant’s army, the knight orders and priest orders of the War Temple, as well as a large group of 500 War Temple Guards. When Kant discovered them, they also discovered Kant’s army.

They also made preparations for the battle.

There was a total of five knight orders of the War Temple in Lionheart City. At this moment, four of them were sent to the West Main Road to destroy Kant. Each knight order had a quota of 1,000 knights.

Among these 1,000 knights, there were 100 grand knights. The remaining 900 were elite formal knights.

Such a knight order could compete with the 15,000 heavy cavalries of the small and medium nobles in the Seria Castle, which was at the junction of the South County and the North County.

There were four such groups of knights!

There were 400 grand knights!

There were only 490 Swadian Royal Knights and Sarleon Lion Knights in Kant’s troop.

Apart from the four knight orders, there were 300 War Temple Priests.

These 300 War Temple Priests included 200 official priests and 100 reserve priests.

The strength of an official priest was similar to that of an official mage, but their buff spells were more numerous than that of an official mage. The 100 reserve priests were like mage apprentices. Although they could cast spells, the number and power of their spells were much lesser than official priests and official mages.

Soon, the 200 priests cast buff spells on all the members of the four knight orders and a large group of War Temple Guards.

Group Acceleration, which needed no explanation and was similar to the effect of the mage, but this spell would greatly increase the power of the charge of the heavy cavalry.

Armor Enhancement: Increases the defensive power of the armor worn by the members of the knight order and the War Temple Guards.

Weapon Enhancement: Similar to the power of a mage’s Sharp Golden Blade.

Bloodthirsty Excitement: Increases the excitement of the members of the knight order and the War Temple Guards every time they successfully kill, increasing their morale and attack power.

Battlefield Recovery: the members of the knight order and the War Temple Guards had their physical strength greatly increased. After being injured, they could quickly stop the bleeding and scab, greatly improving their battle endurance on the battlefield.

After the priests cast the buffs on the knight order and the War Temple Guards, they stayed where they were and began to prepare spells.

The 500 War Temple Guards, like Rhodok Sergeants, also formed the stacking shield formation. They lined up in ten rows and blocked in front of the priests of the war temple.

The members of the four knight orders of the War Temple quickly arranged their formations. Just like Kant’s heavy cavalry formation, the members of the four knight orders were also lined up in a row of ten knights. However, they were lined up in a total of 400 rows. Just these knight orders alone occupied two to three miles of the West Main Road.

However, compared to Kant’s 250 Swadian Royal Knights and 240 Sarleon Lion Knights who were lined up at the front, the knight orders of the War Temple were arranged according to the independent arrangements of each four knight orders.

At the same time, each knight order was arranged according to the knight squads.

Each knight order was divided into 20 knight squads. Each knight squad had 50 members. Among them, there were five grand knights and 45 official knights.

The arrangement of each squad consisted of five grand knights and the five strongest knights. They were arranged in the first row while the remaining 40 knights were arranged in the following four rows. This way, there were a total of five rows.

The knights were arranged in such a way that there was a total of twenty-five rows. They were arranged in front and back.

The four knights were all the same.

Therefore, the members of the knight orders of the War Temple were 80 knight squads. They were arranged in an orderly manner.

They were arranged alternately with Kant’s 10 Swadian Royal Knight and 10 Sarleon Lion Knights. The last 500 Mamlukes were arranged in the last charging formation. Who would be the victor? The result of the impending collision will soon be revealed.
