Sunset still seems to be unwilling to throw himself into the embrace of the desert early, still stubbornly leaving the last golden wire on the walls of the Iron Fist Fortress. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info City,There are crowds of people gathered everywhere.,Everyone's faces are a little panicked.,What are you and I talking about.。 Phantom and Xin were in a tavern, eating wine and food, while listening to the shopkeeper on the side talk about things. The shopkeeper kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with the towel on his shoulder. One hand held a bowl of water, and the empty hand kept gesturing with one and one closed lips, and a group of people surrounded them

"Oops! Just now, I went to the East City Gate to buy tomorrow's food. And guess what? ”

Xiao Er said, picked up the bowl and took a big sip. Everyone shook their heads, and then urged him to speak quickly,

"What's wrong? Say it! ”

A big man rubbed fried peanuts in his hand, chewed in his mouth, and stretched his head upwards to say

"Alas, don't worry, listen to me. I saw it, rows of ... Heavily armed soldiers! And the Druids and the Mages! ”

"Huh? Soldier? Druids, and mages? ”

Everyone said suspiciously, isn't this an era of peace, how can there be, rows of soldiers.

"Yes!"

The little two nodded heavily, then put the bowl down, and spread his hands in front of him, as if to compare a length,

"There are so many ~ many! All over the city walls are crowded! That's not all, you know what's going on outside the city? ”

Xiao Er deliberately sold a pass, which made everyone anxious, and some slapped the table and shouted

"What's wrong, what's wrong? Speak up, talk fast! ”

The shopkeeper on the side also put down the abacus in his hand and came over.

"Hmph."

Xiao Er smiled, looked around, and shook a finger in front of everyone

"There's a war going on outside the city! And the lord of the city is there alone leading a group of sand soldiers to fight the robbers! ”

"Huh? Castle Lord! ”

"Oh my God! The robbers are coming! ”

······

Suddenly, the small tavern burst into flames, and people were amazed and discussed what was going on outside the city. Only Xin was eating in a daze, not listening to what the people on the side were talking about at all. After listening to what Xiao Er said, Phantom turned around and saw that Xin was still eating, a little surprised, and asked

"There's something going on outside the city! Do you still have such a good appetite? ”

“··· Yes? ”

Xin put down her rice bowl and looked at the girl in front of her. The plush face is covered with rice,

"None of our business!"

"But the city lord is here~!"

The phantom said, a gleam flashing in his eyes. Xin was keenly aware of it, and there was a trace of unhappiness in his heart, so he had to put down the dishes and chopsticks and change the topic,

"Eh~ I said, didn't you just say that you were an assassin? How could the money bag be stolen, just this bit of vigilance? ”

"Huh? What do you mean? Doubt me? ”

The phantom sat up straight and said solemnly,

"You know what? If I let my guard down like this, people won't guess that I'm an assassin and won't be more wary of me. The success rate of the mission is great! ”

“···”

Xin sweated for a moment, picked up the hat placed on the table, and patted it with his hand. The sand particles on it fell with the vibration.

"But you didn't say before that you were the boss of your Assassins' Guild. What mission does you still use your boss to do in person? ”

"This..."

The phantom didn't say it for a moment, and his eyes blinked,

"Miss Ben wants to come out and practice her hands! How? Can't you? ”

"Okay, okay."

······

At the same time, outside the city gates:

The war continued, and the corpses of the robbers were lying everywhere, flesh and knives joined together, blood and sand mixed together. Elric was still wielding bloodstained broadswords in the crowd.

"Drink~ah!"

One of the robbers slashed the knife into Elric's right shoulder with all his strength, but immediately, the bandit felt his jaw suddenly tingle, and his body was bounced away by an invisible force. The whole person fell on the sand not far away, covering his stomach with his hands and rolling constantly. That armor actually reflects damage! Elric just felt a slight pain in his right shoulder, and it wasn't a big deal. Then he raised the knife in his right hand and spun it around his head, then swung it forward with force. The blade slashed through the necks of the three robbers with unmistakable accuracy, and blood gushed out! I didn't have time to admire, so I dodged a knife to the right, and was surrounded by a group of robbers. The sand soldiers stabbed the robbers with their spears and swords made of sand wantonly, and the robbers' knives and spears slashed at the sand soldiers as if they were on cotton, and they did nothing, cutting through their bodies, except for some sand flowing down, nothing else.

However, in the course of the slow battle, the robbers seemed to discover the weakness of the sand soldiers.

"Ugh."

A sand gun was plunged into the chest of a robber, and blood flowed out mixed with sand. But the robber gripped the sand spear with both hands, and the blood from the corners of his mouth dripped from his hands, cutting through his wounds, and staining his hands red. The sand soldier pulled his gun backwards vigorously, but he couldn't pull it! At this moment, a robber stabbed his knife into his body on his right side, and then slashed hard, instantly cutting off the sand soldiers, turning them into thousands of grains of sand and scattering them under their feet. The robber who had been shot lost his support point and fell backwards. The next moment, a sand soldier who had reconstituted the pile of sand stood up, holding a spear in his hand, and the robber was stupid and did not know how to resist. Then, just as the sand soldier was about to stab his spear down, a robber behind him hurriedly slashed him in the neck with a knife and cut off his sand head with all his might. In an instant, the sand soldier collapsed to the ground as if he had lost his vertebrae, turned into countless dust, and the sand drifted away with the wind, never to get up again. The robber suddenly realized! shouted excitedly as if he had discovered a treasure

"Beheaded!"

Immediately, a sand soldier rushed over and slashed him to death as the words fell. All the robbers were stunned, and then looked at the sand soldiers in front of them, and their whole bodies seemed to be full of strength again, brandishing their knives and rushing forward! When Elric heard these two words, his brow furrowed slightly, and then he swung his knife to the left, and one of the robbers fell to the ground, and a group of robbers rushed up from the side!

"Oops!"

On the city tower, a soldier said in a panic,

"The weakness of the sand soldiers has been exposed!"

······

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

A drum beat came from afar, and everyone's hearts tightened! It's the drumbeat of the offense! Elric blocked one of the robbers with his knife, bounced it away, and looked at the source of the sound.

"Whew~!"

A gnolloll with an earthy brown coat and a black blindfold covering its left eye. He howled lonely in the sunset that had been swallowed up in the ground, and then he looked this way, and the exposed eye was getting brighter and brighter under the darkening sky, and the bloodstained teeth followed

Breathing up and down. As soon as that howl passed just now, countless green gnolls rushed in behind him, rushing towards the Iron Fist Fortress!

"Haha! We've got our hands on it! ”

One of the robbers shouted, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and his spirit came at once! The gnolls rushed into the battlefield with darkness and smashed their maces at the dwindling sand soldiers! Strangely, the sand soldier seemed to have no strength at this time, and the spear that stabbed out was weak, almost no harm to the robbers and gnolls, and it itself became very fragile, as long as it was beaten into sand, it could never get up again. Some of the sand soldiers even began to decompose on their own!

"Damn! At night, the Sand King's abilities are limited! ”

A soldier said, and then a voice rang out,

"Elven archers! Prepare, Sha Jiaban will save the city lord! Mages and Druids Support! ”

At the sound of an order, no extra words sounded, and everyone kept moving. Like Illidan, the yellow-haired, green-cloaked elf walked to the front of the castle tower with a bow and arrow, drawing a bow and aiming at the enemy on the battlefield. The various staffs in the mage's hands also glowed in the night, and the boulders in the hands of the druids were also ready to go.

The gates of the city were pulled up with the sound of chains, and a group of soldiers with scimitars in their hands rushed out in red cloaks, under the rising moon, like

A red surge.

"When! 嗤 (chi), 歘 (chua)"

Now Elric was left alone in the enemy line, because his abilities were limited at night, and he was only half as strong as during the day. He felt very difficult to deal with the increasing number of enemies in front of him. However, a shout of killing reached his ears not far away!

"Yikes!"

"Drink~"

The group of soldiers frantically fought the surrounding enemies, constantly approaching Elric's side, leaving a pool of blood everywhere they went.

"City Lord! Hold on! ”

In the blink of an eye, two soldiers had arrived in front of him, protecting him left and right, and retreating little by little. The repulsed enemy rushed up again, but from the sky, arrows poured down from the string, blocking their way. The soldiers took advantage of the wall of arrows to escort Elric back to the city. Suddenly, the mages and druids were relieved to attack the enemy group with impunity, and the huge stones and various magical attacks temporarily forced the group of robbers and gnolls back. The brown gnolls in the distance looked viciously at the corpses all over the ground in front of them, and then at the city. Ordered to retreat first······

The white moonlight shone silently, the red cloaks of the soldiers on the battlefield floated quietly along the desert evening breeze, and fear gradually enveloped the sky above the Iron Fist Fortress. And that's just the beginning······
