Chapter 489: Canyon
"Muse. Bel!!! ”
When Rhodes. Campany saw clearly the people who were being welcomed by the rebels, his fists immediately clenched, and anger welled up in his eyes...... Former Marquis of the Empire, commander of the Golden Fleece Legion!
……
The sudden loss of St. Peter's Fortress was like a bleak cold wind blowing on the southern plains of the Ordgar Empire, which had gradually entered the deep winter, and everyone had a fear of suddenly being frozen and even their minds stagnant.
No one could have imagined that the breach would first open from St. Peter's Fortress, and the rebels would flood into the undefended St. Peter's Fortress, and then attack the unguarded Columbus Fortress in a sweeping force, killing more than 1,000 defenders.
And the birth of the Bell family made all the nobles feel panic...... This is an ancient family, with the title of duke but does not have the corresponding territory, it is a family that has long been placed on the edge in the upper echelons of the empire, and no one thought that this family would be the first to attack at this time. So, everyone was stunned by this sudden upheaval,
The consequences of the fall of St. Peter's and Columbus are unimaginable, especially the Muse. The Golden Fleece Legion led by Marquis Bell joined the rebel sequence, and the impact was enormous.
The rebels rushed in and fought the first battle with the soldiers of the Bauhinia Legion fifteen miles southeast of the Magellan fortress, and although the soldiers of the Bauhinia Legion succeeded in crushing the rebels' vanguard, they were followed by locust-like rebels and heavily armed knights who could withstand the ordinary force attack.
The Bauhinia Legion, with the support of the Imperial Southern Legion, once again inflicted heavy losses on the rebels, but the battle was not as easy as the first battle. Although they were repeatedly defeated, the tenacious and tenacious hoplites were always able to regroup and launch a counterattack at the first time, relying on the superior impact and resistance capabilities of the hoplites, the war situation gradually turned against the side of the Empire.
The current Golden Fleece is in the muse. When Bell's leadership appeared on the rear flank of Magellan's fortress, the imperial army could no longer hold out, and this time the rebels were obviously going to make a big move.
After the Southern Legion evacuated the Magellan Fortress, it was stopped by the rebels, and the Heavy Knights held on, and the Southern Legion once again ushered in the second crushing defeat of this legion.
In front of a rebel army twice their size, they were also reinforced by the Bauhinia Legion and the Court Mage Regiment. But the rebels seem to have a good idea of how they attack. On the one hand, he used the mobility of the cavalry to contain the Bauhinia Legion, and on the other hand, he used the magic rifles produced by the Cordillera Arsenal to attack the magicians of the court mage, and at the same time, a special unit, the Shadow Thief Warrior Order, was also suddenly used as a killer weapon.
This became a key factor in the turn of the war.
This army, made up entirely of high-ranking thieves, has become the most feared of assassins. And a surprise attack was carried out on the unprepared Imperial Wizards. The sudden appearance of the Demon Breaker dagger tore through the shields of several mages in an instant. Piercing their fragile bodies, at least twenty-five magicians died in assassination. If it weren't for the rapid arrival of reinforcements from the Bauhinia Legion, I'm afraid that almost all the magicians of the palace mage group would have died here.
Lost the walls and bastions, as well as the protection of the archers. The defense of the magicians was at its lowest point, and the bad luck that fell from the sky suddenly enveloped the palace mage group, and the mage who was caught off guard was crushed on the spot by this air strike without warning, and the mage group that was implementing magic strike support for the southern legion besieging the rebels immediately collapsed, and the rebels who had been struggling to support under the endless magic strikes of the mage group finally ushered in a turning point. The Golden Fleece Legion led by Bell entered the battlefield at the right time and dealt a fatal blow to the Southern Legion.
The Southern Army was also exhausted to the last of its strength, and finally collapsed on all fronts.
And the Bauhinia Legion also suffered heavy losses in the battle, the battle of Grica, which was known as the fateful place of the empire, finally ended with the destruction of the southern legion of the empire, and the Bauhinia Legion and the court mage regiment in the province of Gorica also suffered heavy losses under the subsequent pursuit of the rebels, this battle shocked the entire empire and shocked the entire Titan World North, the so-called elite southern legion escaped the clutches of the underground coalition army, but failed to survive the poisonous hands of the rebels, and more importantly, the strength of the court mage regiment was greatly damaged and directly affected the later operations, And the Bauhinia Legion was also injured, and the province of Rica ...... No, the southern barrier of Heidelberg has been completely opened.
The destruction of the Southern Legion and the defeat of the Court Mage and the Bauhinia Legion have plunged the whole of Heidelberg into a state of extreme panic, and although the military headquarters has sent the Golden Cross Legion to the south to support, this will not ease the tension...... The turmoil has just begun!
……
The situation in the south of the Odiga Empire has changed, and the intelligence agencies of the Cordillera Territory will certainly not ignore it, but this has not affected Hathaway's dragon slaying plan in the slightest.
In front of Hathaway and the others was a towering cliff, and at the end of the canyon was the lair of the black dragon. This cliff is also different from other places, as if someone has cut off a piece of it, from top to bottom to concave inward, so that it is impossible for ordinary people to climb up, and it is also not easy to climb down, and the easiest way is to enter through the valley mouth.
Walk along the bottom of the cliff into the canyon, where the rocks above you jut up to the sky block the sun and provide shade. From time to time, water seeped out of the rock formations and dripped onto the face, freezing cold, but from the bottom of the canyon there was a faint, sulfur-like smell from time to time.
There is not a trace of human activity here, only bones everywhere. In fact, even outside the canyon, it is difficult to see traces of human or other biological activity. Not everyone is interested in slaying dragons, the bones on the ground have been around for an unknown number of years, and most of them have been weathered and turned into powder at the slightest touch.
Thankfully, Hathaway was that the dragon was really old, and had been asleep for years, and they hadn't alarmed it yet.
The slippery moss of the cliff overhead smelled of wet rot. Walking along the bottom of the cliff, albeit a stupid way. But it is undoubtedly the safest method. It would be a mistake to think that a sleeping dragon could fool around at will.
After walking for two days, they finally made a discovery. Looking at the crack in front of them, the team stopped.
A crack winds down the cliff face, and the entrance to the crack is very narrow, less than three meters.
"Is that right?" Hathaway looked at Meciuda.
Meshuda nodded hurriedly...... In fact, there is no need for him to signal, because the aura coming from the crack is even stronger, Hathaway has been with the abyss evil dragon for a long time, and she also has her own experience of the perception of the dragon clan, and knows that there will be no mistake.
The two green elf powerhouses walked ahead very consciously. After they signal that everything is okay at the other end of the crack. Hathaway led the people into the chasm.
Entering the crack, the inside suddenly opens up. Where is this crack, this is a grand canyon. The entrance to the canyon is an inverted funnel, which happens to be the narrowest at the entrance.
Hathaway felt like she had stepped into a completely different world...... Dark red red rock. Strange rocks. As seen in the canyon. The dark or pale red seemed to be stained with blood, and the desolation was lifeless. There is no vegetation, and there is no sound. It's different from the dampness of the canyon outside. It was unusually dry, and the air was a little hot and a lot of sulphur, and there was no moisture to feel it.
"Lord Marquis, be careful,"
Meshuda reminded with a solemn expression: "Although the black dragon is sleeping, there are still some companion creatures here, which are very terrifying, and the last time I came in, I also relied on the help of a stealth magic weapon to avoid those creatures. ”
Hathaway nodded slightly, concentrating her mind like never before, and there were two bottles in her hands that contained her special potion.
The hard rock underneath your feet makes you feel pretty good, and it's good for strain. These days, the thick and soft layer of rotten leaves in the jungle makes everyone flutter under their feet, and the road in front of them is also slippery, and now I finally have a feeling of being on the ground.
As he continued to advance, Murong Xianxian found that there was still vegetation here, and in the shade of some rocks, there were often mosses, but these mosses were very dry, like desert plants.
Five kilometers, Hathaway estimated the distance from the entrance to the canyon where she was now. Out of caution, the team moved very slowly.
It was getting dark, and night was falling.
The night didn't bother her too much, and the team didn't stop because of the night, but continued to move on.
It seems that there are no dangerous animals here, and I can't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that Meshuda may have been frightened by the black dragon, and she will mistake a dangerous creature when she sees a bug.
The dark red cliffs were dark like a sleeping monster in the night, the sky of the canyon was full of stars, and the blue moon was like a hook, it was a clear night.
Ahead was a corner, and in mid-air, a rock protruded like a barrier, and everyone relaxed their guard a little.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
Suddenly, on the rock sticking out of the air, a strange turquoise light lit up, like a turquoise lamp being lit!
The large turquoise light at the mouth of the bowl lit up continuously. For a moment, the rock was covered in a dense cluster of turquoise light.
The faint green light is not dazzling, but it is so distinct in the darkness that it is impossible to ignore their presence.
"Elemental Eyes!"
Hathaway's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp. Although the incident happened suddenly, she reacted quickly, and a huge eye pupil appeared in mid-air, and the rock was covered with a bat-like creature that was attached to the rock. The turquoise glow was emitted by them, and it was supposed to be a pair of turquoise eyes, but because of the distance, it looked like clusters of light.
"Everyone, be careful!" Hathaway whispered a reminder that the flask in her hand had been released.
In the face of unknown dangers, the safest thing to do is not to find out where they are dangerous, but to stay away from them...... But at this time, Hathaway and the others had no other choice but to move on.
The team sped up their march, and the members of the Dragon Slayer Team were already aware of the anomaly above and were ready.
At this moment, countless turquoise light clusters had broken away from the cliff wall and flew into the air, although their wings were moving, they strangely did not make any sound, and for a time they obscured most of the entire canyon.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......
There was a sharp sound of breaking the air in the air, and everyone looked up...... Sky! Countless bat-like creatures rained down on the crowd. The number of these turquoise light clusters is definitely not less than thousands.
What a speed!
Hathaway's eyes froze, and she whispered an order.
Shout......
All those armed with ranged weapons attacked at the same time, and the sound of breaking through the air was incessant, and bat-like creatures were shot down and fell to the ground with a crackle, and the ground was soon covered with a layer of corpses.
Tweet, tweet......
Despite the webs below, many creatures suddenly swooped down on the top of everyone's heads.
"Humph!"
Hathaway let out a soft snort, opened the flask in her hand, and sprinkled the dark red potion into the sky.
Call~
At the moment when the potion flew out of the bottle, it suddenly turned into a cloud of fire suspended above the dragon slaying team, and the sudden change disrupted the attack rhythm of those creatures.
Tweet, tweet......
The screams were incessant, and the creatures didn't have time to stop, and one by one they rushed into the fire cloud, and by the time they passed through the fire cloud, they had already turned into a ball of fire, and before they could fall, they had already turned to ashes.
The chirping screams came and went, and the attacks of the other team members also caused great damage to these strange creatures. The ground around the dragon slayer team was littered with the corpses of these bat-like creatures.
I am confident that I will *********** hit the water for 3,000 miles in 200 years***********
