I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

On the battlefield, except for the Golden Lion Knights, other armies inevitably faced this issue.

However, Bevis was not with his Golden Lion Knights; instead, he had his deputy commander hold the fort while he, along with two dukes, directed the entire Feis Kingdom Army’s operations.

As the commander appointed by His Majesty the King, his responsibilities had significantly increased, making even the battle-hardened Bevis feel somewhat tense.

However, the news Lis had shared with him the previous night was somewhat uplifting.

May everything go smoothly!

As time passed, it was evident that the Feis Kingdom Army was assembling faster than the Boditch Army.

Under the command of Bevis and the two other leaders, the Feis Kingdom Army split into different sections, slowly advancing toward the Boditch Army.

In the vanguard were heavily armed infantry, these robust soldiers bearing tower shields as tall as a man, advancing slowly.

The thick tower shields displayed a faint magic light, obviously enhanced by enchantments, though simple, they still provided adequate protection against magic attacks.

By each heavy infantry’s side, there followed a long spear soldier and an archer; this was the core fighting unit of the Feis Kingdom Army, forming the frontline pressing step by step toward the Boditch Army.

Unlike the decadent Bodici Nobles, a large portion of the wealth accumulated by the Feis Royal Family was, under the arrangement of His Majesty the King, heavily invested into military capabilities.

This division was almost armed to the limits of what human kingdoms’ armies could afford, incomparable to the Boditch Army.

As long as the heavy infantry’s line didn’t collapse, the overall forces wouldn’t suffer much damage.

Beyond the front-line elite troops, the light infantry and cavalry commanded by Duke Rame and Duke Baird were positioned on the army’s flanks, ready to act at opportune moments.

The Golden Lion Knights were at the very rear of the army, possessing the speed to quickly reach any part of the battlefield, thus waiting in the back for a gap in the Boditch Army to deliver a fatal blow. @@novelbin@@

As the Feis Kingdom Army continued to close in, the Boditch Army had barely managed their formation.

The word ’barely’ was used because, aside from the core troops at the center, the other units were more or less in disarray.

Especially right at the front, where the elite and powerful Feis Kingdom Army was slowly advancing.

Their formidable and intimidating might, combined with an oppressively intense killing aura, caused many in the Boditch Army to be unsettled, unable to face them head-on.

Players mixed into the Boditch Army had never faced such a situation; even though they thought of it as a game, they couldn’t help but feel unnerved.

Bodich had placed all their few heavy infantry at the front, guarding the Royal Mage Corps.

But this also meant that the Mage Corps was somewhat overly exposed and could easily be attacked by the Feis Kingdom.

Nevertheless, there was no choice, as the Boditch Army was relying on the Mage Corps to keep them alive; retreating would render them unable to effectively suppress the Feis Kingdom Army.

The only good news was that the Feis Kingdom Army did not have many mages, only enough to counter Boditch’s magic attacks without any capability to retaliate.

The reason Boditch Kingdom had such a relatively strong Mage Corps was all thanks to Wendell’s diligent cultivation over the years.

High up in the sky, a hundred meters above the battlefield, while everyone’s attention was on the opposing armies, no one noticed Lis’s figure appearing at this location.

Holding a jade-colored magic wand, Lis was not dressed in simple and light attire as usual, but in a luxurious black and gold mage robe.

The jet-black cashmere robe was finely and densely embroidered with elaborate patterns in gold thread, unique and full of charm, naturally exuding an air of nobility and solemnity.

At this moment, Lis, framed by his attire, looked even more handsome and exceptionally elegant; he did not seem like he was about to enter a battle, but rather like a noble guest silently waiting for a grand ceremony to begin.

Lis’s expression was calm as he looked down at the battlefield where the two armies were gradually approaching each other.

Unlike the players, such as Radish and Seeking Intoxication, Lis’s strength and spirit had been genuinely enhanced; naturally, he was not unsettled by the Feis Kingdom Army’s momentum.

Having faced deities and even outwitted a deity’s residual spirit, what was this scene to him?

In his eyes, once the Feis Kingdom Army closed enough distance, the heavy infantry would lower their tower shields to the ground, and under their protection, the archers began to attack the Boditch Army with arrows.

Being a qualified archer was no simple matter; those capable of pulling heavy bows and shooting sharp arrows were all strapping men capable of outrunning horses, certainly the elite of the ranks.

In the world of Gaia, which bestowed extraordinary strength, these specially trained soldiers had an effective lethal range with their bows that could reach over two hundred meters, far surpassing the archers of Lis’s former life.

The archers’ attack brought considerable trouble to the Boditch Kingdom, with arrowheads made of refined iron and designed with special barbs that were fatal wounds for ordinary soldiers; however, the Royal Mage Corps’s mages had "Protection Arrow" magic to guard them, so the impact wasn’t particularly significant.

Unless struck by arrows enhanced with "Blessed Accuracy" and other beneficial magics, attacks from non-transcendent professions posed little threat to well-defended mages.
