Chapter 259: It's opened
Of the remnants of more than 1,500 soldiers, more than 700 were unwilling to go back. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBecause they are all slaves, the consequences of defeat are something they can't afford, and it may be even more cruel. And the remaining 800 people, they are regular troops, they must go back, otherwise their families will be treated cruelly.
Of the more than 700 people who remained, more than 500 were slightly injured, while the rest were unscathed. Two of them are Matthias and Eddie. They voluntarily stayed, and if they went back anyway, they were slaves and could be treated even more cruelly. They will even be killed to demonstrate.
A battle came to an end, Jia Huan watched the more than 800 people supporting each other, lost their souls, they had lost their fighting spirit, and it was impossible for them to become elite warriors anymore. They are now like a plague that will spread fear of the rebels and will only shake the morale of the king's army. They're completely finished, and they can't hold weapons anymore.
"It's like an Internet virus?" Emilia who was standing next to Jia Huan said to him with a smile, "I know what you think, these people spread the virus of fear, and that will be the deadliest move." You know a lot about military affairs and politics?"
"It's instinct!" Jia Huan smiled slightly, and didn't speak, war deaths are inevitable. It's just that when I saw the devastated scene, I felt a little emotional.
This battle is over, and the next battle may be even more violent. This road leads directly to the Intramural City. The castle of the Intramuros is fortified, separated by a huge gorge and followed by a huge bridge. This huge stone bridge spans the canyon with an abyss below.
Legend has it that the bridge was built for the Giant Nation by a god who came out of the Warner Clan. The construction of this bridge used his divine powers. Near the castle, there is a huge drawbridge, which can be lifted by means of machinery, completely separating the enemy army from the castle. In this way, no matter how large the enemy army is, it is impossible to cross the bridge and attack the castle.
From this point of view, it is a very strong fortress. Even if the eagle wants to fly over, it is difficult. So when Mude and his men came here, he stood on the other side of the canyon, looking at the distant castle over there, and sighed with some admiration. For he heard the bell of the warning coming from the side of the castle.
As the bell rang, the suspension bridge was slowly hoisted up. The suspension bridge is more than 50 meters long, making both sides an insurmountable moat. Mud could only ride his horse and watch from afar. Behind him were soldiers with swords, guns, bows and arrows. With an indomitable spirit, they were preparing to take over the place they usually looked so fearful. Now there are more than four thousand soldiers, neatly arranged. They all waited quietly for orders.
After the victory over the king's 5,000 soldiers, the fame of Mude's army had soared, and many craftsmen and slaves had fled to him. His strength was rapidly expanding, and then after Jia Huan came up with an idea, the army was reorganized, and the team had a certain combat effectiveness, which was the last battle against the king this time.
The king of the Giants was standing in front of the watchtower at the top of the castle, looking at the army on this side of the canyon, and although the people on that side seemed to be very small and almost negligible, he looked at the other side of the canyon with worry and anger. He couldn't understand why his army was so powerful.
"Your Majesty, from these two battles, we can infer that among those untouchables, there must be a god who is helping them. A sorcerer in a robe said to the gloomy face of the king, "We can infer from the rewards of the defeated soldiers. Shouldn't we use our power and ask the gods of Warner to help us?"
When the king heard this, he immediately looked at the wizard-like man and said, "You mean...... Blood sacrifices?"
"Yes, use the blood sacrifice and open the rainbow bridge to allow the gods of the Warner Protoss to appear on our land. Judging by their attitude towards you, the King, they are supportive of your rule over the Giants. The wizard said respectfully, "There are only three thousand soldiers in the city who can fight, and these three thousand are still frightened, and they are frightened by the rumors of the defeated army. You can't rely on these people to help you keep those rebels at bay, Your Majesty!"
The king pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Go and prepare!"
When the wizard heard this, he bowed to the king: "Your Majesty, you will be proud and glad for your wise decision. With that, the wizard drifted away.
Mu De stood at the other end of the bridge, looked at Jia Huan who was standing on his shoulder, and Emilia who was pulling his hair, and said: "What should we do now? This is an insurmountable chasm, if we can't defeat the king in the castle, then we can't complete the rebellion against the king in a practical sense." ”
Before Jia Huan could speak, at this time, he heard a dull horn sound in the city. The sound of the trumpet was long and short, five times in a row. Hearing the sound of these trumpets, Mude's face suddenly changed. Turning his head to look at Jia Huan, he said, "Oh no, sir, this horn sounds...... Oh my God, the king still does that. ”
"What's going on?" Jia Huan frowned and asked through Emilia's translation, "Is there something wrong?" Mude's face turned ugly, which must mean that some bad accident was about to happen.
Mude's eyes became very sharp, and his eyes almost burst into flames. He said in a trembling voice, "This is a blood sacrifice. It hasn't been used in years. Forgive me, my God, it's all the king's fault!"
"What is a blood sacrifice?" Jia Huan said with a frown and looked at Mu De.
"The king will kill five hundred women and children, and then use their blood to open the passage of the Rainbow Bridge and summon the gods of the Warner Protoss to descend on the country for the king's use. "The king did it once, and he summoned a mythical beast from the Warner Protoss, a dragon that breathes fire. Killed a beast that ravaged our country. I didn't expect to be summoned again this time, poor five hundred women and children, damn it—" He hammered his chest in annoyance.
Open the Rainbow Bridge with the lives of 500 women and children. Why is there such a brutal thing to open the Rainbow Bridge? Jia Huan frowned suspiciously: "Isn't the Rainbow Bridge opened at a certain time?"
"Yes, yes, it will only open at a certain time. But...... The beasts guarding the Rainbow Bridge will also open the Rainbow Bridge after receiving the blood sacrifice. "But as far as I know, our country has only been opened once. Is there any way to save their lives?
Mu De said, and suddenly knelt down, although Jia Huan was standing on his shoulder, he still knelt down on one knee and said to Jia Huan: "My God, please save those innocent lives." They are innocent. Let's kill them, get them out, get all the people out. ”
Jia Huan was silent for a moment, and Emilia on the other side of her shoulder said, "Only a brutal monarch would do such a cruel thing. Help them, Mr. Jia. Please!" this woman is also compassionate, and compassion is overflowing. However, this is human nature, and it is impossible for anyone to remain indifferent to such a mass murder of women and children.
"Let your people prepare!" Jia Huan said, suddenly looking ahead. The suspension bridge was made of huge steel cables, which seemed to Jia Huan to be almost twice the thickness of his entire person. He looked at it, and suddenly the whole person turned into a ray of light and flew forward.
The sound of "collapse-" was like the sound of several steel wires breaking from the sky. Then I saw the suspension bridge make a "creaking" sound, and suddenly it slowly fell from hanging in mid-air. Jia Huan's figure suddenly appeared on Mu De's shoulder again, and then said, "It's your turn!" As he spoke, he flashed, and took Emilia away from his shoulder quickly, and swept to the side.
He took Emilia to the side of the hill, stayed with Garil, and said, "Stay here, Anne, follow me, let's go to the castle together, and if you see someone trying to kill women and children, don't be soft-hearted, just kill those who do the murder." Can you? Annie—"
"I can!" Annie exclaimed excitedly, she had thought about it for a long time, she wanted to fight with Jia Huan, and now this wish could finally come true. Then he felt a pair of big hands grasp his small hands, and then the whole person turned into a light and flashed towards the castle.
"Brothers, it's time to settle accounts with the king, follow me—" Mude waved his sword and pointed forward, and he galloped forward. Behind him was a group of cavalry, which followed and charged. And the black-pressed soldiers behind him, listening to the swords, guns and spears, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the castle.
With a bang, the drawbridge was reconnected, and Mu had to rush over first, followed by more people rushing over. As the drawbridge fell, the king's heart trembled with the sound of a "bang", and he shouted loudly: "Immediately send an order, let the wizard kill those people quickly, hold a blood sacrifice, hurry, I will summon the appearance of the gods immediately!" he cried out almost hoarsely.
The 500 women and children were quickly found, and the soldiers brutally burst into the homes of every civilian, forcibly taking out the women and children inside. The streets were filled with cries and shouts, as well as the rough shouts of the soldiers and the screams of the men who were whipped.
The whole street was like hell, and it was unbearable. In the huge square of the castle, all 500 women and children were finally detained, tied up with ropes, and 500 soldiers acted as temporary executioners, and the women and children were to be executed as soon as possible, so that their blood could be shed.
In the square, there is a huge tower, which reaches into the sky and almost touches the sky. This is the heart of the castle, and when the blood is poured into the blood tank, the blood is drawn to the sky by an attraction from the sky. Eventually reach the Rainbow Bridge, which is where the Warner Protoss are located. This tower was built by the gods of the Warner Clan.
I don't know what they built it for purpose. But the tower has now become one of the places where they go on a killing spree and carry out bloody activities. The wizard was beside the tower, dancing strangely and muttering words, and behind the black, crushing women and children, each soldier had a sharp knife in his hand. Put the knife on the necks of the women and children. Below the neck is the blood trough.
On the periphery were groups of soldiers armed with spears and blades, and they were aiming their bows and arrows at the men who were trying to crowd and shout desperately at their relatives in front of them. People were constantly being knocked to the ground by the soldiers, screaming and wailing.
An officer on a fast horse galloped over and said loudly to the wizard who was chanting: "Your Majesty has an order, immediately carry out a blood sacrifice, open the rainbow bridge, and summon the heavenly beasts to come down." There must be no mistake - cut it together!" said the officer's order, and the soldiers behind the women and children immediately took action.
Suddenly there was a cry in the square. Some women were so frightened that they even peed their pants. "Do it—" With a snap, the soldier's knife began to wipe down the necks of the women and children. The cold blade, as long as it is slightly forced, will cut off the arteries and blood vessels in the neck, and the school will splash out like a spring.
"Rainbow—" Someone suddenly shouted loudly.
Immediately after that, many people shouted loudly: "The rainbow is out—the rainbow is out!" When they were shouting, the rainbow swept over like a colored light on the horizon, and then the sound of "clang" was heard incessantly. The soldiers' hands did not stop fingering, and their knives fell.
Then the rainbow suddenly pierced the chest of the sorcerer who had spoken the words and disappeared. The wizard's mouth opened wide and he looked in amazement at the huge blood hole in his breastclasp, where the blood was bubbling and flowing. Constant dripping into the card slot. And the blood from the broken palms of those soldiers kept pouring out and dripping into the card slots.
The blood that had gathered in the card slot suddenly rushed into the sky with the tower. The wizard opened his mouth and looked at his chest, then at the blood in the tower that rushed into the sky. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile. Then the light in his eyes began to radiate, and finally he became godless, and the man fell to the ground.
"Kill them—" With a roar, the sudden turn of events made everyone brave, and their anger finally had an outlet. One soldier picked up a knife and tried to stab the person who rushed at him, but was then stoned in the head by someone nearby. The rest of the soldiers panicked and fled towards the palace.
"Your Majesty, you see, the tower has changed. The Rainbow Bridge is about to open!" said an officer excitedly shouting to His Majesty the King, pointing to the tower above.
The king nodded with satisfaction, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a burst of shouts of killing from under the city walls. He was about to ask what was going on. The rebels who had already rushed over on the bridge came down to the city. The closed gate was suddenly opened, and then there was the cheers of the rebels.
The front is flat, and the castle is mired in civil strife. And at this moment, suddenly there was a lightning bolt from the sky, and this lightning seemed to split the sky in half, so that everyone couldn't help but stop.
The Rainbow Bridge is open!
