MTL - Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 891 873. Breakthrough! (3000)

 “Get out of the way!”

Lan En was riding a unicorn in the church hall. The superposition of the momentum of the mount and his own strength brought extraordinary destructive effects.

 “Bang!”

Lan En’s [Turbid Current·Destruction] is three meters long! It's enough to be used as a lance when placed on horseback!

 He just held the hilt of the giant sword under his arm, and then raised the huge, thick blade flat.

The next moment, a church knight holding a shield-hammer combination had his entire body pierced through the shield by a huge sword blade! The body was also nailed to the wall!

Even under the impact, the strong limbs of the church knight bounced several times on the wall, like a helpless toy.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

When he pulled out the broad sword blade, there was a harsh friction sound between the broken edges of the armor and shield and the sword surface.

It first made its body spin in a circle, and then Lan En's arms, waist and abdomen continued to swing.

 The force of a swing is not only the muscle and inertia of a human, but also the physical strength of an ancient dragon.

Their upper bodies were flying high in the sky, and at the fractures where they were smashed, torn, and bitten by the not-so-sharp blade of the giant sword, a huge amount of blood, minced meat, and broken bones followed like a wave. The inertia threw out a perfect arc and splashed on the ground.

It raised its front hooves high, and with a "flutter" amidst the snoring sound of relief, it forcibly trampled a profound bishop into the size of a dwarf.

 “Bang~Stab!”

 After the front hooves hit the ground, its head pushed forward and then raised.

 So Qilin can fight with Lan En in a coordinated manner.

Lan En, who was on its back, followed the swing and threw the tip of his [Turbid Current·Destruction] sword downward at the same time!

 After shaking off his body, Qilin did not stop.

When Lan En needs to swing up the terrifying giant sword, Qilin can even understand and coordinate his steps.

The Netherworld Bishops can bless themselves with [Netherworld Sanctuary] to fight against Qilin's completely natural thunder and lightning.

Qilin swung his body to the side, and the fluttering white mane tumbled into waves in the air.

 This huge sword is wider than the waists of bishops.

 But they can still be hurt by swords and physical force!

 The dark sword body and the bone-white blade drew an arc in an instant.

The seven or eight Youshu bishops standing on one side simultaneously changed into the appearance of their upper and lower bodies separated.

 The huge mass and volume make the air whimper.

So when he was on horseback, Lan En's movements were always extremely relaxed. When he leaned back, his waist was like a tightened bow. When he hit the ground, he wanted to stretch his arm holding the giant sword far away.

  When Qilin and Lan En fight together, [Yaxsi Sign] will continue to transform.

 Because this is the posture that can work together with Qilin to produce the greatest impact.

Even the golden lion's tense muscles did not dare to compete with the hard-topped unicorn's gray horns on the front. It easily pierced the chest of Bishop Yousui and threw the corpse away.

Thanks to the magic horse harness Margarita prepared for Qilin, the silk rune cloth on it is also waterproof.

 Otherwise, the face of the feline Qilin would be pricked with blood by now.

The Bishop of Netherworld and the Knights of the Church on the first floor of the church hall were basically cleared out within a few minutes after Lan En and Qilin cooperated in the battle.

 Only two archbishops, Macdonald and Louis, remained.

 Among them, Macdonald was first a magician, and later also practiced the priesthood, with comprehensive and complicated methods.

 Lewis is a pure priest. Like the [Miracle·Force] released by Klimt just now, he can release it many times in a row without taking a breath.

 So Lan En and Qilin did not cause effective damage to them.

On the other hand, the second floor terrace is indeed unbearable.

 “Boom!”

Eldridge controlled the giant body that had been emptied by himself, and punched the iron door of the room where he was once held.

This time, the iron gate built by Lothric finally reached its limit.

After Leonard, Klimt, and the other maggots tried their best to attack and defend, Eldridge finally tore the iron door open.

 The sound of "squeaking" iron bars breaking and tearing was endless.

　　Leonard’s eyes were piercing under the silver mask: “You filthy drowning pig!”

The crescent curved sword in his hand continuously projected green light blades as he swung them, flying towards the giant's body.

But the biggest result was just to cut a hole in the shell, revealing the 'black mud' and 'asphalt' flowing like blood under the giant's skin.

Eldridge doesn’t care at all.

 “We can’t hurt him!”

Leonard shouted almost desperately, but on the other side of the terrace, Klimt continued to release [Miracle] in an attempt to stop Eldridge. "For Rosalia! We must persist!"

After the iron gate was torn open, all that stood in front of Eldridge was a tall room door.

This thing looks heavy, and it is indeed heavy, but its protective power is not as good as the outer iron fence door.

 After all, it was built by Lothric as the last line of defense to imprison Eldridge.

However, after this most protective line of defense was breached, the door to the room inside was opened by a large crack.

Leonard looked back in shock, and then his expression became excited.

"Angel!"

He shouted loudly, as if to encourage others on the terrace and to encourage himself.

 “The Mother of Rebirth has not abandoned us! Here comes the angel who was reborn by her!”

Three fat and tall figures rushed out from the crack of the door.

They wear golden, wide armor. The armor looks fat and clumsy, but it is actually made into a convex surface by superb technology, which can effectively deflect enemy attacks.

 The blue ribbon in the middle of the body represents ‘loyalty and purity’ in knight culture.

 At the shoulder blades on the back, the armor has a special opening, allowing the wings of the angel inside to move freely outside the armor.

 From this opening, it can be seen that this is an armor specially designed and forged for angels.

It was also an object transported in the convoy that arrived with Rosalia.

Three golden armored winged knights, one of whom holds a long-handled halberd, and the other two hold a short-handled ax in each hand.

The blade of the short-handled ax is curved inward, with a curvature that fits the back of the human body's neck. It looks more like an execution tool than a combat weapon.

 In the convoy, there were already several maggots who were close to completing the process of "rebirth".

Before this conflict suddenly broke out, Leonard and Klimt were giving these maggots their last rites.

Now, those maggots have transformed from soft insect forms into tall and brave winged knights!

 “For Rosalia!”

The Winged Knight roared. The shape of the helmet was slightly funny, but in this voice full of determination and anger, no one could despise the helmet and armor in the slightest.

Although the wings on the shoulder blades are quite incongruous compared to their body size, they do give the Winged Knights the ability to fly.

As soon as the three of them came out of the crack in the door, they flapped their wings and headed towards the giant's body in mid-air.

The huge winged knight's halberd smashed down on his head, aiming at the gap in the skull that Lan En had made at that time.

After the halberd was smashed down, the crack on the giant's skull suddenly became larger, and the sticky black mud splashed out like throwing a stone into a puddle.

And the two winged knights holding short-handled axes, each with a double ax beside him, rotated like a large bladed top, leaving hideous and dense scars on the giant's shell.

 One of them flew to the side of the giant, and a faint white light appeared all over his body in mid-air.

Hands spread out, head slightly raised, as if praying to a higher existence in the void.

 And the void did respond.

 The holy light pillars came from nowhere, accompanied by white feathers, and intensively bombarded the Winged Knight.

On Eldridge's body, the black asphalt under the giant's skin was rolled endlessly by the explosion, and he roared in pain through the giant's mouth.

This intensive and powerful attack seemed to have finally hurt him.

 But that’s all.

His movements did not mean to be interrupted at all. The greed filled with appetite was spreading with his profound power, making everyone feel their hearts trembling.

 “Crack!”

At this time, high-voltage electricity also fell from the dark clouds on the dome of the church hall and hit Eldridge.

I don’t know if after losing the human form, I also lost my ability to cast spells.

Eldridge did not equip himself with even the most basic protective [miracle].

This caused Qilin's blue lightning to indeed have an effect on him, although the effect was only limited to the impact, which caused the black mud in his body to explode into a huge wave from his shoulders and splash out.

Lan En, who was riding on Qilin's back, frowned and looked at Eldridge, who was holding the second-floor terrace and seemed to only care about "devouring Rosalia" and didn't care about anything else.

He turned his head again and looked down at Macdonald and Lewis, who were not far away and were trembling, swallowing saliva unconsciously and holding the scepter tightly.

 The two of them didn't care about the witcher at first.

 But when the battle situation reached this point, both of them lost the confidence to survive another minute in front of Lan En.

 But Lan En actually doesn’t have time to kill the only two people left in the hall now.

On the second-floor terrace, Eldridge had already slapped a winged knight away. The knight's body flew straight across the entire church hall and hit the wall on the other side.

 The next step, Eldridge was already ready to reach out and open the door to Rosalia's bedroom.
