Chapter 94: The Great War (28)
The high-ranking apostle played this little trick that suddenly disappeared, which Shen Lin had not expected at all. When the high-level apostle disappeared from Shen Lin's sight, Shen Lin thought that this was the sequence of the high-level apostle's attack, but when Shen Lin was fully guarded, according to the experience he learned from the Tiger King, he intercepted several times in the direction that the high-level apostle would definitely pass, but unexpectedly found that he had not found any trace of the high-level apostle at all.
Shen Lin's actions were very funny in the eyes of the other Denoma Empire soldiers, because from a distance, Shen Lin seemed to be dancing in place. However, they also saw the High Apostle disappear with their own eyes. Therefore, more soldiers were thinking that this was Shen Lin engaged in a hand-to-life struggle with a high-ranking apostle moving at high speed.
Only the steel tower and Sir Scar found that Shen Lin did not hit the target once. This means that the High Apostles are no longer here. Shen Lin, who was tired, glanced at Sir Scar a little embarrassed, and found that he was nodding at himself with a forced smile.
"Hey, I've seen through it. Shen Lin sighed, but immediately shouted again: "Okay! That high-level apostle has been defeated by me!"
Suddenly, an earth-shattering cheer erupted from among the soldiers of the Denoma Empire. Sir Scar probably didn't know what Shen Lin meant, since she said so, then he definitely had to cooperate. "Alright warriors, now the threat to the south has been completely defused with our joint efforts. This time, we defeated a high-ranking apostle and more than a thousand elite apostle soldiers. This shows that in the face of our powerful army, even these apostles from another world are vulnerable. After that, you will have an hour of rest, and then you will go north with your new city lord, the Marquis of Steel Tower, to support!
What? I, I'm the Count?" the steel tower's eyes widened in astonishment. He had never had the experience of becoming a nobleman, and in the past, even if the steel tower had made great achievements, he would not have the possibility of being promoted to a nobleman. Although the Denoma Empire pays attention to meritocracy, most of the interests are embezzled by some moths in the upper echelons, so many of the credits that belong to the steel tower are taken away by those moths. So by now, the steel tower is already thirty or forty years old, but it is still only the military governor of a fortress-like city.
And now, under the wisdom of Sir Scar, the steel tower has not only become the lord of this armored city, and has more right to speak, but also has become the highest count that Sir Scar can canonize as a duke! This is a great good thing that the steel tower has never imagined! You know, not long ago, the steel tower was almost bewitched by Liao Ningzhu to become her accomplice! If it weren't for the fact that Ms. Warsaw finally came forward, otherwise the steel tower would still be following Liao Ningzhu, and it is very likely that he would have died completely!
Although the sudden happiness made the steel tower a little groggy, he still did not forget to carry out the task. Since Sir Scar asked him to take these soldiers back to the City of Armor to rest first, it means that Sir Scar has to go to the canyon in the north to support first. He looked at Sir Scar with some unappeasement, but the latter nodded at him calmly, which put the tower at ease.
"Order, send the corpses of your comrades to the city, and then rest!" Steel Tower quickly adapted to his new role, and because of his previous perfect performance, all the soldiers of the Denoma Empire present were not dissatisfied with the appointment of Steel Tower, and they collected the bodies of their comrades and carried them into the city. They are all warriors who defend the city of armor, they are all warriors of the Denomah Empire, and they deserve a better home.
At this time, Sir Scar had already come to Shen Lin's face, asking about the duel between her and the high-ranking apostle just now.
"I don't know, I really don't know, I don't know anything. Shen Lin squatted on the ground with a sad face, "Before he disappeared, he was still telling me to see if I could catch him, at that time I thought he was going to beat me again, but I didn't expect me to dance for more than half an hour of square dance, and I didn't notice that he had run away." ”
Sir Scar looked at Shen Lin blankly, what kind of square dance? Does this refer to Shen Lin's awkward moves before? Well, it does seem to mean some dancing, but what exactly is square dancing? Does it mean dancing in the square? Well, that's not good. Because of the regulations of the Denoma Empire, the square is an extremely solemn and multifunctional area, and it is not allowed to dance on it.
However, Sir Scar still understood one thing, that is, the high-ranking apostle who was still fighting Shen Lin to the death before had indeed run away. Otherwise, it is impossible for him not to appear after such a long time. So the next point is, where did the High Apostle go?
First of all, you can rule out the option of a High Apostle lurking into the City of Armor. After the defenders such as Sir Scar and the Steel Tower left the city, the gates of the City of Armor were firmly closed. Moreover, at that time, Shen Lin happened to hit that high-level apostle once, and he was falling to the ground and couldn't stand it. Besides, even if a high-ranking apostle could take advantage of the chaos to storm the city of armor, it was only the outer gate. The inner gate where the people of the armored city live will never be opened, so if he sneaks into the outer city, he will be discovered quickly, but now there is no news from the outer city that the high-ranking apostles have entered.
In the outer city, it is the barracks of the defenders of the armored city, and there are many patrols in it for a long time in the uninterrupted full coverage patrol, not to mention that he is a high-level apostle, even if a cat runs out of the inner city, it will be caught quickly.
In addition, it is impossible for the High Apostle to enter the outer city with the defenders of the City of Armor. The steel tower obviously guessed this, so when the army entered the city, the steel tower made more than 200 sturdy soldiers stand in two columns outside the city gate, and the soldiers who wanted to enter the city through the city gate had to pass in front of the more than 200 soldiers who were on guard. Moreover, there are dense archers standing on the city walls, and they can easily spot the hidden high-ranking apostles from the high ground.
For this, Sir Scar also admires the steel tower. At least I didn't misunderstand anyone, the steel tower is indeed the kind of person who is close to both civil and military. If the Steel Tower had been able to listen to the opinions of others while he was the Lord of the Castle, then Sir Scar would have recommended the Steel Tower to Barrier I.
Then, since this can be ruled out, there are only three possibilities left for the high-ranking apostles. The second possibility is that the high-ranking apostles may not have left, but waited for an opportunity to lurk, preparing to wait until they were not looking, and then decapitate them. And the targets of this decapitation operation are naturally Sir Scar himself and Shen Lin. If you take the overall situation into account, then the target of the high-ranking apostle is 100% of Sir Scar, but if it is more selfish, then the high-ranking apostle should seek revenge on Shen Lin.
But Sir Scar wasn't the slightest bit worried about that. As a veteran of decades on the battlefield, Sir Scar has long put his life and death on the line. Besides, even if the target of the high-ranking apostle is him, then the high-ranking apostle still needs some strength to be able to do so. Although Sir Scar is old, he was a powerful warrior when he was young, and although he is old, his basic skills have not been left behind.
And if the high-level apostle chooses Shen Lin as the target, then it will completely explain the short-sightedness of this high-level apostle. Since Shen Lin was able to make the high-level apostle suffer two heavy blows in a row, then Shen Lin had a high chance of letting him steal chickens and rice again. And once Shen Lin found a way to kill him completely, then it would be the final end of the high-level apostles.
But this probability is also very low. First of all, Shen Lin didn't detect any traces of the high-ranking apostles in the vicinity at all, and secondly, even if the high-level apostles really wanted to raid the two of them, it would not be possible to hurt them. Shen Lin's ability to easily stop a high-level apostle who was moving at high speed was a good example of this. For Shen Lin, this is not a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, but real strength. So, if Sir Scar was the High Apostle, he would rather sneak up on those soldiers of the Denorma Empire than choose to sneak up on them. However, now that the soldiers had gradually entered the city, the gates had begun to close, and the guards on the steel towers and city walls were still keeping an eye on every move around them, not giving the high-ranking apostles a second of chance.
Then, on the question of the whereabouts of the high-ranking apostles, there is only one last possibility left. At the same time, this is also the biggest possibility, that is, he has already gone to the battlefield in the north at this time, here, no matter how powerful the high-ranking apostle is, it is impossible to set off any storms, and in the north, even Lord Scar does not know what the battle situation is.
After temporarily removing the threat of the High Apostles, Sir Scar and Shen Lin came to the place where the High Apostles had previously annihilated the thousands of soldiers who had rushed to support from the frontal battlefield west of the City of Armor. When he saw the charred corpses all over the ground and some black powder staining the snow black, Shen Lin squatted down and retched in pain, while Sir Scar stood quietly in place, tears in his eyes.
Although Lord Scar knew that this trip to rescue the armored city would definitely be a big battle, he also thought that many soldiers of the Denomah Empire would leave their lives under the city of the only three remaining fortresses of the Denomah Empire. But he would never have imagined that these elites would leave this world in such a way.
Sir Scar came to a relatively well-preserved skeleton, which he said was well preserved, but in fact it was only a charred skeleton on his forehead. The skeleton's body was facing the Fortress City, and its right hand was stretched forward, as if it wanted to escape from here and return to its own capital, the Fortress City. However, he was destined to never go back.
Sir Scar didn't know how the High Apostle did it, but Sir Scar knew that this High Apostle was an extremely murderous pervert, because he didn't even care about his own men, let alone the soldiers of the Denomah Empire who were enemies? What appears is a shocking black.
"My Imperial Majesty, how the hell did some High Apostle cause all this. Eventually, Sir Scar could no longer support his body and sat down on the ground. "These are our compatriots, that cruel bastard, how the hell did this, thousands of warriors of my Denoma Empire, died like this, I don't understand, where is he, I'm going to kill him, I'm going to kill him!"
Looking at the old tearful scar scar, Shen Lin's heart was not a taste. In the previous apocalyptic era, all of Shen Lin's relatives and friends died in the last days, and Shen Lin was also heartbroken at that time, just like the situation facing Sir Scar now. Shen Lin didn't know how to comfort this decadent little old man, only those who had really experienced all this would understand that the only thing that could cheer him up at this time was Sir Scar himself.
However, after thinking about it for a long time, Shen Lin still held back such a sentence: "Old man, I don't know how to say other words, but I think you should understand that as a professional soldier, especially when facing these apostles, you should know that there are many soldiers who may be sacrificed." Although the way of sacrifice is different, since it has been sacrificed, then for them this is the last kind of destination. And we, especially you, can't afford to be decadent because of them. Because throughout the country, there are countless warriors of the Denomah Empire who are fighting to defend their homeland. If you've lost all your fighting spirit, what are they going to do?"
Speaking of this, Shen Lin sighed, walked to Sir Scar's side, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said softly, "Sir, the only way you can remember your deceased comrades is to comfort their souls with the blood of those apostles. ”
yes, to comfort their souls. Scar Sir looked up, looked at Shen Lin with a sunny smile, and nodded. Yes, yes. Although the deceased has passed away, the living still have to fight for survival and dignity. And they and the apostles must decide the ultimate victor.
