The Thousand Year Dynasty
16. The Champions I
The Four Champions of Urbar kingdom were all Narva with the typical attire of noble knights. They stood their backs in the siege of the warrior Pharos behind the gate.
The first is a bongsor-bodied man wearing a full armour, from the tip of his foot to the helmet at the end of his head. Carrying a large shield that has a relief pictured of a scale with four yellow flaming crystal stones at each corner.
Next was a young man who seemed to be grasping a pair of swords in both of his hands. The blade in his right hand was glowing red, and the one in his left hand was shining a whitish blue.
Then a woman who looks the shortest of the other three. Which seemed to hold a sword with a blade shape that looks awkward, pitch black. It looks like the backbone of a fish, whose upper fins become the blades of its sword.
Then the fourth was a stern-faced man. He was wearing an iron glove with two knives attached to the back of his hand. Which when viewed from a distance looks like a claw of a wild animal.
While the Champion who managed to get entangled by the electric net earlier was a witch woman with a magic wand that had a crescent shape at the end.
And a man with a trident, a spear with a three-pronged tip. They both seemed to faint motionless in the net.
.
All the soldiers of Pharos, both those at the bottom and those at the top of the cliff walls immediately set up a formation and pointed their weapons at the four men.
Seemed some soldiers with shields standing to form a fence at the front. Their shield looks as black as the protective clothing they wear. According to Nata, the material used to make the shield was the same as the material used to make their protective clothing. Only, the shield was made thicker and harder.
Meanwhile, the soldier with an air pressure-powered weapon like the one Hubert had, was standing behind the masked soldier. Direct their weapons towards the opponent. Ready shot.
And before the four Urbar Kingdom Champions realized what was going on, Caspian immediately gave an attacking order.
"Foot!" It was Caspian who made all the soldiers pull the trigger of their weapons.
And as soon as they started shooting, dozens of their bullets bounced off as now the four were again surrounded by bright yellow magic protectors.
"It seems that the magic protector is the result of the Arcane rocks that are in the garden" said Lily next to Nata, who was seen observing.
Not long after, the young man with the two swords raised his left hand up. And his sword blade began to glow a bright blue.
Simultaneously, dozens of ice pillars appeared outside the magic protector. And just like before, the ice pillar began to slide in all directions randomly and endlessly.
The soldiers tried to hold out behind their shields. They seemed to kneel on one leg and bow. In order for their bodies to be fully protected in a shield that was only half the height of the adult's body.
Nata, Lucia, Lily, and Parpera were also behind the masked soldiers. It was just that their karenan was on top of the cliff wall, making them not need to walk down and down to avoid indiscriminate attacks from the ice pillar.
"Miss Parpera, rapal a magic to attack them. Especially the man who brought the shield" Nata told Parpera.
"But it would be useless if the magic protector was still there" Parpera replied.
"I will try to remove the protector. Attack when the opportunity comes" Nata replied.
"Although I do not understand what you mean, but I will do" said Parpera who began to concentrate on casting magic.
"What are you gonna do, Nat?" Ask Lucia later.
"They were wrong to have entered this place. I'll make them regret underestimating us. Take it easy, princess. You just wait in a safe place" Nata replied.
"I also don't understand what you're going to do, but be careful" said Lucia then who was only answered by Nata with a nod of her head.
"Mr Caspian, order the others to release their rifles. And get away from the gate" Nata orders once he makes it to Caspian's position. "And take me to the electric generator near the guard post below" he added later.
"Good" said Caspian later. "All of you take off your weapons and get away from the gate!" Shouted Caspian from behind his shield. Then along with Vossler, Jean, and Helen immediately went down the cliff wall to where the electric generator is located.
They walked behind the soldiers who made a protective fence around the four men. By still giving orders to the soldiers to put weapons, along the road to the place they were headed.
While the magic ice pillar still continued to come out endlessly. Seen inside the magic protector, the four people were like they were talking and making a plan.
"We have to hurry before they think about the next plan" said Nata who ran while hiding behind the bodies of Caspian and Vossler.
And after Nata arrived at the electric generator room he was referring to, he immediately grabbed a thin rod of copper which he had prepared long ago.
"Is that the end of a thin rod of copper that's been wrapped around both iron poles beside the gate, two weeks ago, Nat?" Jean asked to make sure, when he saw Nata began to pull back the long copper rod to be connected to a tool.
"really. Not wrong. This was indeed copper wrapped around the gate iron pole. I prepared everything, for times like now" Nata seemed to be helped by Lily stalling the thin copper rod. "Yes, even if it's supposed to be outside the gate. Not inside the gate like it is today" he added later.
"That means it can help us to defeat those mystical weapon wielder Champions?" Jean asked who did not understand what Nata had said before.
"really. That's how it's about. So get ready to attack them after this, Jean. But don't use your iron swords. Use the weapon Val made from Cyla crystal" Nata later said.
"alright. I won't ask you again. After all, I won't understand even if you explain it to me. So I'm just gonna take a look at it" Jean added as she walked out of the electric generator room with Caspian, Vossler, and Helen.
Meanwhile, the so-called weapon made of Cyla crystal was only a whitish clear crystal stone that was only half the length of an adult's arm. The one on one side was flat like the sharp part of a sword blade. And the handle is only wood and rope ties from animal skin.
.
While outside it looks black clouds began to roll centrally above the four people earlier. It was Parpera's lightning magic that was ready to be launched at any time.
And as Nata flowed through the copper with electricity, the two iron pillars of the southern gate quickly turned into a powerful magnet that pulled all the metal towards him.
Surprised when all the iron armor used felt pulled, the man with the sword and the man with the mask earlier, lost his concentration and canceled the magic they had cast before. Be it magic protectors or ice pillars.
And being unprepared, nor expecting that, one of the swords of the double-sword man slipped out of his grasp, and slid towards the south gate.
The same thing almost happened to the clawed hand and the shield. They're just stronger. Until they had held off before their weapons were released.
Women do not seem to be affected much. It was because there were not too many iron guards he was wearing. And it seemed, that strange sword was not made of metal.
While on the iron pillar of the south gate, there are now dozens of objects attached to that place. Starting from iron milestones, armor, weapons, air tubes, to cooking utensils and so forth.
.
As for Parpera this is considered a sign that Nata has spoken of before. So without lingering, he immediately released the magic that had been resistant earlier.
And immediately lightning struck the four people below him. Leaving behind explosive sounds and dazzling flashes of light.
The opportunity was also not wasted by Caspian, Vossler, Helen, and Jean to immediately run to attack the four men.
