Chapter 9: The Battle of Luxembourg II

There was no moon on the night of the battle, and the faint light of the fire on the castle tower struggled in the darkness that came from all directions. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 Upstairs, soldiers in black and gray armor and musketeers in hoods huddled on the edge of the city walls, leaning together half-eyed and playing tons. The walls were still stained with blood, and in order to prevent the enemy from attacking at night, Pauline had them tie the tree strips together and tie bells to them, and lower them from the walls, so that they could react as soon as they climbed the walls.

The fire kept beating, and Pauline pinched the cold musket in his hand and looked out of the city. He didn't understand why the lizardmen were fighting here, the fork in the road in the imperial city was in front of Luxembourg, and they were just guarding the road leading to the elven ruins from the south, and next to it were snowy mountains, infested with snow monsters. It stands to reason that you shouldn't fight here, and the people in the city have already expressed their stance that they want to live and die with this city. Pauline told them to hide in the house. Thinking about this, a musketeer came over, and Pauline looked at him and said, "Jera, it's just in time. The musketeer was stunned and looked at him, "The enemy will definitely attack, you go to the snow mountain and call for helpers." Pauline said with his beard and patted the man on the shoulder with his right hand. Do you say snow monsters? But...," the young musketeer's eyes widened, "but I'm not very familiar with the snow monsters, and everyone else is hostile to us except for one. Pauline pursed his lips and wanted to say something. At this moment, the crisp sound of the bell rang uneasily on the city wall, and at this moment the piercing piercing pierced the cold night. As if reflexively, the napping soldiers snapped open their eyes and stood up. Pauline nudged Jara, "Go, there's hope for you." As he spoke, he ran towards the wall and yelled, "Pour the paint bucket!" Jera frowned, didn't say anything, and ran down the castle tower to the snowy mountain.

"Whoa~" buckets of colorful paint poured down from the torch-filled castle towers, and those sneaking lizardmen felt like they were taking a bath, covered with all kinds of paint, leaving them with nowhere to hide under the eyes of the soldiers. "Bang! Bang bang! "Buckshot followed right behind, sparking sparks, and one by one knocked down the lizardmen who were crawling on the walls.

"Kulo Kuluo!" A voice came from the darkness in the distance, and a large group of colorful footprints appeared on the city walls. A musketeer knocked one of them down, but during the reload, he saw the other one come up to him, "Drink~!" "In an instant, the people flew out of the castle tower, and the people around them quickly killed the lizardman." Damn, there are too many of them. You can't win by replaying! Pauline said through gritted teeth, then stepped aside and pulled out a box with a button from behind his backpack and yelled at the musketeers, "Get down! "Drop." "Bang! Rumble! "The clearing not far from the city gate suddenly exploded, and the raging fire burst out of the earth, accompanied by screams that rang out everywhere, and kicked up a huge cloud of dust and swept away in all directions. Bury the lizardmen in the smoke. The musketeers and soldiers were lying on their stomachs, smoke and dust swept across their backs, and everything seemed to be quiet. The captain of the soldiers found Polin, "I'll take people down to stop them, or the tower will be breached sooner or later." Pauline didn't say anything, nodding appreciatively and apologetically.

"Crunch~" The city gate opened quietly, and the gray-black soldiers held the cold knives in their hands tightly and lined up neatly, staring intently at the cloud of dust in front of them. Just about to go out, "Brush!" A scimitar flew over, "Ah~! Then one of the soldiers was stabbed in the left cheek and fell to the ground screaming. The soldier on the side just wanted to help him "brush!" Brush! "The scimitar keeps flashing!" Uh, ah! Ha~! Hmm..." screams rang out one after another, and the soldiers in the front row kept falling. The soldiers in the back row hurriedly passed the few shields to the front, barely withstanding the lizardmen's attacks. "Get out of here!" The soldier roared, holding his sword high and rushing into the dust that had not yet dispersed due to the cold, and when the soldiers saw this, they all rushed out with a shout, and fought with the dust. "Aim and shoot! Don't hurt your own people! Pauline said, then waved the barrel of the gun "Bang! ”・・・・・・

At this time, in the middle of the night, Sheen and Phantom arrived and helped Malik deal with the remaining gnolls. The miners all said they wanted to follow Marik. "I really haven't seen it." Malik said with a wry smile as everyone gathered around him and the sledgehammer, "Now I just want to get home quickly." Hearing him say this, the Phantom's face showed a slight look of disappointment, and she asked everyone here that had never seen Elric, let alone knew where he had gone. Well, rest here tonight, and go home tomorrow morning. She said, and Malik nodded. The phantom turned his back to look at the night sky, and secretly anxious in his heart, "Alric, where are you?" ”・・・・・・

"Dang!" The captain of the soldiers attacked in all directions with his shield in front of the air, and on the other hand, his sword waved in a cloud of dust, and the ground was full of corpses, but there were more soldiers. Lead bullets and sparks kept shuttling through the dust and mist, cutting through the lines of fire, intermittently illuminating the surroundings, but not many hit the target. "Yikes!" A soldier blocked the attack with a shield, then slashed at the source without hitting anything, before a lizardman appeared behind him and plunged his scimitar into the soldier's body. "Drink~" The soldier fell to the ground. "Boss! See! A musketeer shouted, pointing into the distance. Bolin looked over and saw that his dark red eyes were shining in the darkness, and he was getting closer! "Is it the Dark Knight!?" As soon as the words fell, the lights walked in, and as expected, more than a dozen Dark Knights. Wrapped in pitch-black armor, he was a head taller than the soldiers of the Imperial City. Holding a shield in his left hand and a dark sword in his right hand, the blade is wavy, and both sides of the sword glow with dark red blood. "Yikes!" One of the soldiers spotted the visible enemy and slashed at him with all his might. The dark knight didn't hesitate, and with a wave of his right hand, the dark sword slashed across his body, leaving a dark red trail that was still corroding around. The soldier also fell to the ground, blood streaming down his mouth. Seeing this, the soldier commander waved his sword over, "Dang! The sword flew, and in the next second, the whole person was split apart and fell on either side of the dark knight.

The musketeers were silent, and the Dark Knights on the ground continued to approach the towers. It's almost morning, and the surroundings are getting brighter. "Hold on! Musket salvo! Pauline shouted, "Bang! Bang bang bang! "Rows of buckshot poured down from the towers, but they didn't hit the Dark Knights. Sound "Jingle Bell." "Damn." The musketeers were not bothered, and then there were more colorful footprints on the groundβ€”the lizardmen had come up. Roar~! A cry of rage came from behind Pollin and them. Then several huge white figures passed over the heads of the musketeers and slammed down in front of the towers - snow monsters! That's when Jera ran up. Pauline secretly exclaimed, "Caught up!" ”

Thick white hair covered the snow monster's body, revealing only two large, dark eyes. Standing up at a height of nine meters blocked the enemy's path. "Boom!" With a loud bang, I saw a snow monster slam his fist on the ground in front of him, and when he raised his hand again, there was a lizardman lying in a pit with a diameter of one meter, and his body was twisted. The Dark Knights were stunned, but immediately rushed forward with their dark swords. "Ao~!" The snow monsters rushed forward with a loud trumpet. The people on the tower could not intervene, but could only watch from the sidelines.

A snow monster ran on the ground twice on all four feet and jumped high, and when it landed, it knocked a dark knight to the ground, and then stomped on it with its right foot, and the dark knight quickly blocked it with his shield. Raised his feet, but he didn't step on them. The Dark Knight swung his sword and slashed the snow monster's leg. "Ao~!" The snow monster was in pain, and with a wave of his right hand, he knocked the dark knight out with a "bang", and autobiographed three hundred and six in the air. Then he jumped up with another snow monster, smashed his hands together in the air and smashed him into the ground, pushing the dirt for two or three meters, leaving a trail on the ground. The first golden threads of the sun sprinkle on the earth, and when it rises a little, the sky becomes clearer and the horizon is broader. Even though the Dark Knight is invulnerable, he can only be beaten passively in the face of the unmatched power of the snow monster. A dark knight watched the battle and raised his sword aloft. After a moment of silence, the ground shook uneasily, and a large group of red-skinned, grinning demons rode red hellwolves from a distance, and in the blink of an eye, they were in front of them. "Damn! Call the snow monsters back! Pauline shouted at Gera, then pulled a button out of his backpack again, "Boom!!" A loud bang sounded in the ears, and everyone was stunned for a moment, and then the top of the snow-capped mountain on the side of Luxembourg collapsed in an instant, and the accumulated snow poured down, and immediately arrived on the side of Luxembourg! The snow monsters had reached the city walls, holding hands and protecting the towers with their bodies, because of the terrain, the snow swept across the battlefield like waves, burying all the enemies and corpses under the snowdrifts, and at the same time blocking Luxembourg inside. There is no way to communicate with the outside world.

Heavy snow swept across the battlefield, and the dark forces finally wanted to reach the elven ruins, why is that? Elric mysteriously disappears, will Phantom and Shin be able to find him? Malik may not have known what fate had set in place for him.
