Lord of Cinder in American Comics
Page 213
The dinosaurs' ferocious nature was controlled by the Lothric Knights. They opened their mouths and bit at the Soul Eater in front of them, who was holding a shield. The Lothric Knights on their bodies also raised their weapons and attacked the enemy.
At this moment, the Soul Eaters are facing attacks from two different angles in one direction. They have no choice but to sacrifice the smaller ones to protect the larger ones and resist the Lothric Knights.
The shield formed by the Soul Eater's dark hand blocked the Lothric Knight's attack, but he was immediately bitten in the mouth by the Destroyer King Dragon.
These recently captured Destroyer King Dragons have only undergone brief training and have not received any special enhancements from Lothric.
So much so that their sharp teeth could not pierce the Soul Eater's armor, and the fierce bite caused their teeth to break.
The Soul Eaters, despite being bitten, remained unfazed. They switched the Dark Hands on their left hands to a different mode, grabbed the Destroyer King Dragon's body, and pulled it outwards with force.
The not-so-powerful soul of the Destroyer King Dragon instantly detached from its body, and its massive body collapsed limply to the ground.
The Soul Eater takes the captured soul, burns and transforms it with its dark hand, and then sends it back to its original body.
The fallen Destroyer Dragon rose again, but this time its skin turned dark and dry, like the armor of a Soul Eater, and then it launched an attack on its former battle companion.
The Soul Eater's unique dark hand can absorb and modify the souls of its enemies, turning them into its own allies. This is why the Soul Eater can single-handedly destroy a nation.
Enemies controlled by the Soul Eater will lose all reason and consciousness, and will target everyone except the Soul Eater.
At this moment, some of the Lothric Knights' Destroyer Dragons became enemies. The Lothric Knights seemed to have been prepared for this situation; the knights on their backs showed no mercy, directly beheading the controlled Destroyer Dragons.
The battlefield situation changed, and almost all the knights were now fighting on the ground.
But the dragons of the Lothric Knights still roamed the sky; they didn't linger and immediately joined the battle.
Dragon riders typically travel in groups of three: sword and shield knights control the dragons, spear and shield knights defend against and attack ranged enemies, and greatsword knights form the core of the force.
Greatsword knights wield the heaviest weapons and are responsible for eliminating all enemies. They possess the power to hunt dragons and the offensive capabilities of lightning.
The greatsword knight raised his weapon high towards the sky atop the dragon's back, and lightning began to gather, while the combined power of the various dragon squads was collectively guided.
Lightning bolts crashed down from the sky onto the ground, and the Dementors scrambled to dodge, but the Knights of Lothric remained unfazed and even raised their weapons to intercept the lightning.
These lightning bolts were specially channeled onto the knights' weapons and armor, as if they were being recharged, and malicious smiles appeared on their faces beneath their visors.
Seeing this, Geralt shook his head and said, "The battle is decided. The Dementors can't stall for time. The Knights of Lothric are destined to win..."
## Chapter 305: The Non-Existent Third Battle
As Geralt finished speaking, the Knights of Lothric launched a full-scale counterattack.
Lightning enchantment is a unique skill of the Lothric Knights, but because they are not gods, this power, which originated from the Sun King Gwyn, can only be used by the Lothric Knights for a short period of time.
The Knights of Lothric cannot, like the Silver Knights, fully integrate lightning into their weapons and unleash powerful force with every swing of their hands.
They can only temporarily enchant their weapons and armor as a decisive blow when facing powerful enemies.
But for now, that's enough.
Lightning enchantments are particularly effective against metal armor. The paralyzing damage from lightning is transmitted into the Soul Eater's body with each strike from the Lothric Knights, making it difficult for them to withstand.
Every engagement weakens the enemy, and every attack lays the foundation for the victory of the Loki.
With the final dragon's arrival, the battle came to an end. The Loki, at the cost of two-thirds of their ground knights, annihilated the Soul Eater.
The Wyvern army suffered no losses whatsoever, and Lothric's greatest advantage was a complete victory.
The defeated Soul Eaters showed no resentment whatsoever, silently withdrawing from the battlefield and standing behind Yulia, as if they felt no emotion whatsoever about their defeat.
Furthermore, Constantine did not express any opinion on the battle. Just as Geralt said, the outcome of these battles was already determined before they even began.
The battle between the Knights ended in Lothric's victory, and now both sides are cleaning up the battlefield, awaiting the start of the next round.
Hill watched as the knights who had been dragged away quickly recovered their health under the treatment of Ash and Constantine.
'This healing power is invincible on the battlefield!'
Hill averted his gaze from the two, fearing that they might covet these untold powers and devise some dangerous plan. To scheme against such power was a price the entire planet could not afford.
Hill asked, "What's the third game?"
"It's over!"
"What did you say?"
Hill couldn't believe it. She had only seen the second match of the Knights' duel, how could the third match be over already?
Geralt explained, "For the two below, the Knights' combat performance is merely a standard for judging the training level of their subordinates, and the fact that the Soul Eater was able to wipe out two-thirds of the Lothric Knights' ground forces despite having an elemental advantage speaks volumes."
For Lothric, a complete victory for the wyverns was their bottom line. This barely achieved their objective.
Hill was a little confused. Geralt had only been talking about the second game, but she was asking about the third game.
Hill said, "I see, I was asking why the third game ended so soon?"
Geralt pointed to the knights below, who had already regrouped, and said, "The results of the third match are already there. The first match was a battle between the mortals under their respective command, which Constantine used to filter out the weak-willed students in the Dragon Academy. It ended with Ash's side winning."
The second battle was a fight between knights, and the Knights of Lothric were victorious once again.
The third match, originally intended to be a contest of magic, turned into a surprise attack as Constantine used a healing spell. This is typically reserved for priests, indicating that Constantine has reached Ash's level in this area. The outcome was obvious.
Hilton realized that as experts in their respective fields, Ash's specialty was healing magic, but now Constantine could use the same healing effect, which meant that he had a pretty good understanding of Ash's area of expertise.
Hill couldn't help but raise her opinion of Constantine's talent and danger to a new level. Just as she was about to ask more questions, she noticed Geralt frowning.
Hill asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"
"No, that's not a healing spell. Did you see the Soul Drainer's armor? What kind of healing spell can restore the armor along with it?"
What? Hill looked down at the Soul Eaters and saw that the wounds inflicted by the Lothric Knights had indeed disappeared, and not even a fragment of armor remained.
Hill murmured, "Was it healed along with the armor?"
Hearing Hill's words, Geralt said irritably, "Why are you acting so dramatic? That wasn't a healing spell at all; it was a time-related spell. If I'm not mistaken, it's light magic from Ula'shiru..."
Hill thought of the light magic mentioned in the intelligence reports, which the students called magical tricks. After learning that learning this kind of magic could only produce light, they all gave up.
It now appears that either the students failed to grasp the essence, or Constantine and the Dragon Academy consciously hindered its dissemination and learning.
"The ancient Ulashiru was known as the Golden Magic Kingdom. Some secret texts record that emitting light is a pure form of magic, which is the essence of Golden Magic."
Geralt's words were always cryptic, and he would inexplicably drift into memories and reminiscences. Hill had to rack his brains to extract any important information from them and then seize the key points to continue questioning him.
Hill asked, "Light is the essence of golden magic, what does that have to do with time?"
Geralt took out a light bug, whispered something to it, and then released it. The light bug instantly vanished into the void, flying off into an unknown destination.
After doing all this, Geralt solemnly explained, "Do you remember when Constantine used a large-scale repair spell?"
Hill said, "It was during the dimensional invasion that Constantine was identified as a key concern by the World Security Council."
Geralt's tone was now somewhat serious, and he said without any politeness, "Now you can raise the bar for his emphasis. That is, in itself, a lost magic of Ula'shiro. Its effects may not seem remarkable, but it is magic equivalent to a secret art. Light is time, and the knowledge of reversing it should be forbidden to circulate."
Originally, it only affected weapons, but now it can affect the body. If this continues, it might create something dangerous, like the witches of Izaris…
Izaris! Another place name. Hill had already memorized Atlas, Ulasiro, Froza, Esloe, and other places that were completely incomprehensible. These places only appeared in the so-called classics Geralt mentioned, and what was infuriating was that Geralt had not explained their locations or histories at all.
This has left the intelligence analysts at the World Security Council utterly perplexed, forcing them to resort to theories about alternate-dimensional history.
Looking at Geralt now, it was clear he had no intention of explaining. Geralt's gaze was entirely focused on Constantine, and Hill didn't seem to want to disturb him. She could still tell the priorities.
After a long while, the light bug flew back and circled Geralt repeatedly. Only then did Geralt breathe a sigh of relief.
"Alright, I've sent people to monitor Dragon Academy. If the spells are only circulating among a few people, there shouldn't be any major problems. Let's continue watching the battle; it's time for our allies to step in!"
## Chapter 306: Revenge Against Stark
Those who lent their support were Stark and Bronsky, whom Ash had invited, and perhaps also Hulk, who hadn't appeared yet.
On Constantine's side, there's Ivan and Alexei the Red Guard, and perhaps Wanda and Pietro as well.
A 3v3 battle, well, a very fair battle.
However, this battle was not so friendly to Stark, as Ivan and Wanda, the siblings, both harbored hatred towards him.
And now Stark is standing in front of Bronsky with a smug look on his face, gesturing somewhat flippantly about their heights.
For Stark, his 185cm height certainly gives him an edge over Bronsky's 170cm.
Just as Stark was having Pepper take a picture of him and Bronsky, Bronsky, with a dark expression, tore off his clothes and turned into a look of revulsion.
Transforming into a 4.5-meter-tall abomination, Bronsky revealed a wicked smile and said, "Alright! Great Inventor, let's take a picture now!"
Stark, seeing the abhorrent wrist that was thicker than his own waist, couldn't help but take a few steps back and stand behind Ash.
"Tch...weakling!"
Bronsky made no attempt to conceal his voice, which Stark found incredibly ironic.
Stark called for his armor, which quickly came to arm him.
Stark's armor still uses the Mark series name, but with new reactors and weapons development, the armor's power surpasses any of the three series.
But looking at the last disposable laser emitter, it surpassed the Mark 6 from the second movie, to the point that Ash now has no idea how advanced Stark's armor has become.
"Gentlemen, the focus is on the battlefield. I don't want any physical contact between you right now, but you can do whatever you want on the battlefield. Anyway, Lothric has already won two rounds, so the result doesn't matter..."
Ash's words temporarily calmed the conflict between the two, but left a more serious outbreak for the battlefield.
Anyway, Ash said the result didn't matter. Abomination made a throat-slitting gesture at Stark, then repeatedly weighed his weapon in his hand.
On Constantine's side, everyone stared at Stark with a united, righteous indignation. Except... Alexei.
Alexei, dressed in his red Guardian combat uniform, was oblivious to the stares around him as he embraced Melina and whispered sweet nothings to her.
This drew the attention of everyone around him, who listened to his strange, emotional, yet nonsensical and metaphorical love talk.
The battle hadn't even begun; both sides were waiting for a signal, and that signal was right beneath the feet of the approaching dragon.
The dragon carried a net bag containing a fast-sleeping Hulk. In the past, Hulk, living in the icy world of the Ariandel painting, spent his days either fighting and training with the Knights of Millwood or sleeping to conserve his strength.
The cold weather kept him from realizing he was being put into a net until the weightlessness and the strong wind woke him from his dream.
The falling Hulk adjusted his body in the air, but still crashed into the ground, creating a large crater.
Once the signal was given, both sides simultaneously began their sprint.
But Stark and Bronsky hadn't gone far before they were forced to stop, watching the armor rising one after another in the distance.
Abomination stared at the scene in disbelief and said, "Stark! When did you sell your armor?"
“I’ve never sold it, and I don’t know where he got it from, but looking at the reactor design, it looks like the one Stan took! Yes! It must be Obadiah Stan! They’re in contact with Stone, and I have to find out Stan’s whereabouts!”
