This thunderstorm came quickly, and after the rumbling thunder, the raindrops of beans soon followed, forming a curtain of rain between heaven and earth.

Constance and a dozen slaves hid in a house not far from the Little Venus Manor, waiting for the order to act.

"Constance, can we really be free by doing this?" Behind Constance stood a strong man a head taller than Constance asked.

Constance glanced back at everyone and said, "Of course not."

Hearing Constance's words, everyone suddenly became commotionous and whispered. A few of them were loud, and they kept saying that they were fighting with them, fighting to the death or something.

But the commotion soon subsided, for they suddenly realized that no matter what they were thinking, it was useless. It would be better to listen to Constance, the man who barely counts as the leader, has to say.

Constance looked around at the crowd, and when everyone's eyes were focused on him, he spoke slowly.

"If we want to be free, we can only rely on ourselves. These Ammushi are cunning villains, and they never have the slightest credit. So we can't put our hopes in them. ”

"So what do we do? I don't want to go back to that humiliating gladiatorial arena, it's better to fight to the death than that, killing one is enough to kill two and earn one!"

"Yes, that's right. Fight with them!"

"Quiet!" The tall and strong man roared, suppressing everyone's discussion.

Constance sneered and mocked: "There is courage but no strategy!" It is the people like you who are in the hands of the abominable Ammushi!"

"What did you say?!"

"Dragon Slayer, do you want to fight?"

With a clang, the door to the room opened. The two guards yelled inside, "What are you arguing about! Want to rebel? Believe it or not, I'll finish you now!"

The slaves looked at the guards angrily. But in the end, people dared not speak.

"Forget it. They are still useful, and the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince cannot be violated. One of the guards persuaded.

"This group of **** is also for us to have some fun." When the scolding guards saw that the dispute had subsided, they closed the door and left.

"Hehe, this is the warrior of Paris?" Constance laughed at the slaves who had been clamoring for a battle to the death.

And the titular warriors all bowed their heads one by one when they heard Constance's ridicule, as if they felt ashamed. No more talking.

"Listen, I have a way to get you out of Ammuxi City!" Constance glanced at everyone, lowered his voice and slowly stated his plan in their eyes as they rekindled their hope.

"Captain! The guards outside the manor have been cleared. But those guards are really powerful, and if it weren't for the number of us, we might not be able to beat them. One of the guards reported to his captain with trepidation.

The captain was a little surprised when he heard this, he had brought a full 500 fully armed royal guards, but it was a more powerful team than ordinary armies. Even the operation on the periphery was frustrated. Will this group of slaves really be able to fulfill His Highness's plan? Although he was worried in his heart, the captain nodded quietly on his face and ordered: "Then let those scum act!"

"Report to the general. The brothers on the periphery were attacked, and the enemy was numerous. And they are all armed, I'm afraid they are regular troops. The assault soldier's report left Leonardo in deep thought.

The Duke expected it right, and the enemy did act. It's good to move the guards into the city in advance, otherwise it will be sad tonight. "Order the teams on the periphery to strictly guard every line of defense, and never let the enemy break into the manor!" Leonardo quickly ordered.

"Wait!" A voice interrupted Leonardo's command.

Leonardo turned his head, only to see that Alan had already put on a delicate plate chain composite armor, holding a knight's sword, standing behind him to stop him.

Alan stopped Leonardo's order and spoke, "Let the outer teams come back." They won't come in. ”

Leo asked suspiciously, "Why did the Duke say that?" The other party is planning to murder the duke of a country, will they still be able to stay behind?"

Alan laughed contemptuously and explained, "If my guess is correct, it must be Charles II's royal guard." If it weren't for the Royal Guard, he wouldn't have such a well-broomt army. It is impossible to send so many troops to hide people's eyes, this is the city of Ammusi, not an inaccessible wilderness. He didn't have the courage to openly murder a duke. ”

Alan paused, then glanced at the energetic and vigilant Essis assault soldiers around him and said, "And he definitely didn't know that I secretly entered the city with the army, because if he knew, he wouldn't have been so reckless in assassination." So at most, it's an attack by a small group of elite troops, or a dead assassin or something. There will never be a large-scale war. ”

Leonardo listened to Allen's explanation, nodded and agreed, "Since this is the case, then we will defend the inside of the manor with all our might."

"Go, Leo." Alan ordered.

Leonardo received the order and immediately began to lay out the defensive line inside the manor, with the building as the core.

The thunderstorm fell very quickly, and after a while, it was a downpour. The heavy rain hampered some movement, but it also obscured Constance's tracks.

Constance and his group of more than thirty people were armed with knights' swords and wore double chain mail. Vigilantly watching everything around him, he quietly and slowly approached the main building.

Allen's manor is like a light in the dark night, and in the dark and rainy night, the building in the center of the manor is brightly lit, and the location can be determined at a glance without looking for it.

Soon Constance and the others were walking across the front lawn of the manor, and the distance between the two sides was almost visible to the naked eye.

And Constance saw Allen at first sight. I saw Alan standing in front of the main entrance of the building, with an array of guards in front of him, and the tough Leonardo standing beside him, exuding a faint momentum and deterrence. And Allen's blood-red cloak flew wantonly in the wind, and he was looking at himself with a smile on his sword.

Constance frowned slightly. The enemy was clearly prepared. And the number of guards was far greater than expected. I thought there would be only a few dozen guards at most. Suddenly, two or three hundred people broke out, which surprised Constance even more.

"Attack!" Constance's roar exploded on this quiet rainy night, and it was tantamount to thunder in the ears of Allen and the people behind Constance.

With Constance's roar, more than thirty people behind him immediately erupted into a roar piercing through the golden cracked stones. The sharp knight's sword in his hand was raised, and his footsteps made a splash on the ground, and he frantically pounced on Allen's guards.

"Defense!" Not to be outdone, Leonardo roared in the same rage.

The Essis assault soldier, who had received the order, lowered his body. His eyes nervously watched Constance and the others charge. The knight's sword in his hand clanged under the pounding of raindrops.

Father! It was the sound of the bowstring vibrating, and the next moment dozens of Allen's soldiers fell in pain. After Constance and the others finished releasing a round of hand crossbows, they directly abandoned the hand crossbows, lifted the knight's sword in their hands and rushed over in the chaos.

Finally, Constance took the lead, and the long sword in his hand slashed the head of an assault soldier at lightning speed, splashing red and white. What followed was a fierce battle between the frenzied gladiators and the assault soldiers.

Each of these slaves was an elite warrior who had been through a hundred battles, especially when they had no way out. Regardless of the trauma on his body. With slogans like Long Live Paris in his mouth, he fought for his life with the assault soldiers.

Allen's soldiers entered the city secretly for the sake of speed. So a lot of equipment was abandoned. The double-layer chain mail is too conspicuous to take off one layer, and the chain hammer is not easy to hide, so it can only be replaced with a knight's sword that often appears in the streets and alleys. It's impossible to bring a helmet or a dress with you.

So at the beginning of the first battle, I suffered a loss in equipment.

Constance relied on his superb combat skills, with more than 30 gladiators, although he was surrounded by Allen's soldiers, he still stubbornly advanced little by little.

"Lord Duke, there are only more than thirty people, will there be a second batch?" Leonardo asked nervously.

Alan shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either. "Is there a guard in the backyard?"

Leonardo immediately replied, "Don't worry, Lord Duke, everything is arranged."

"But even though there are only more than 30 people, their strength is very strong." Leonardo sighed.

Before they were captured as gladiators, they were all warriors from all over Ammusi, and many of them were warriors who had survived several gladiatorial battles, and their combat experience and fighting will were superior to those of the Essis Assault Soldiers.

They may not play as much of a role in the military formation as the Essis Assault Army, but once they fall into such a small-scale fight, they can fully exert their combat effectiveness.

In particular, Constance, who was the leader, stood at the front and had to face the knight's sword attacking from all directions, but the experience of hundreds of battles over the years told him the best way to deal with it.

I saw Constance dodge a stab in front of him sideways, and the knight's sword in his right hand simultaneously supported a sword from the right side. The right foot was firmly fixed to the ground, and the left foot kicked the assault soldier in front of him away.

This powerful heart-wrenching kick kicked the soldier in front of him to the point of spitting blood, flew upside down several meters away, and knocked down several soldiers behind him in a row.

Leonardo's eyes lit up, and his battle intent bloomed. Then he clasped his fists at Allen with both hands and said, "Lord Duke, the enemy is powerful, let me fight!"

Constance's performance is also in Allen's eyes, if Constance is not dealt with, the leader, then the assassin group of more than thirty people will be even more difficult to deal with.

"Go, Leo!"

Leonardo took the knight's sword from the soldiers beside him, took three steps and made two steps, like a wild bull, and slammed into Constance with unstoppable power.

In the face of the menacing Leonardo, Constance did not dare to be careless. But he could not dodge sideways, because behind him were more than thirty of his companions. So Constance crossed the knight's sword in his hand at the critical moment, and he stubbornly blocked Leonardo's blow.

Although Leonardo's blow was blocked, the next moment, Leonardo's overwhelming offensive came surgingly. As a general of the swordsmanship kingdom An Muxi, Leonardo is naturally also a proficient swordsman, whether it is a broadsword that opens and closes on the battlefield, or a thin sword that trembles at close range, Leonardo is extremely proficient.

In this fight, Constance immediately felt the pressure. However, this pressure only aroused Constance's fighting spirit, as the first warrior of Paris, the man known as the dragon slayer, he had not encountered such an opponent for a long time.

In contrast to Leonardo, who inherited Amucia's exquisite swordsmanship, Constance fully exploited the style of the southern barbarian tribes. Not to mention the wide opening and closing of the moves, there is also a fierce atmosphere. Each move has a life-for-life momentum.

In the face of such swordsmanship, Leonardo did not dare to be careless, because many actions seemed to end in the same end, but under the changes of Constance, they could often become injuries for lives.

When the two fought, they forgot everything around them and were engrossed in a life-and-death struggle.

However, the battle with Leonardo halted Constance's advance, forcing the team that followed him to stop. This stop is faced with the siege of Allen's assault soldiers.

After all, Allen's soldiers are not those ordinary feudal troops, and the gladiators who could still break through Allen's army with skill and courage were facing well-trained and tacit assault soldiers, and the casualties were gradually increasing uncontrollably.

Often two or three assault soldiers fell, and one gladiator followed. The team of more than 30 people fell in a short time, and more than 10 people fell. The casualties were close to half.

Such huge casualties even worry the gladiators, they are not slaves who have lost all hope and cannot consume their lives without heartache. Their desire for freedom fueled their desire to survive.

"Constance! We can't hold on anymore!" A shout woke Constance.

Constance was stunned, so Leonardo saw the opportunity, clenched the knight's sword with both hands, and attacked Constance with one move. Constance reacted quickly, and after a moment of stupefaction, he quickly reacted that he was still fighting. Seeing Leonardo's attack, he hurriedly rolled on the spot and dodged Leonardo's attack.

Constance took advantage of the opportunity to distance himself from Leonardo, glancing behind him slightly. Finally discovered the great crisis of the gladiator ranks. If you don't take action, let alone flee from An Muxi, I'm afraid that I and the others will die here.

At this point, Constance also let it go. I saw Constance suddenly roar towards the sky, this roar was so exaggerated that it only relied on the air waves emitted to repel the rain around him, forming a semicircular rain cover with Constance as the center.

Allen's hands tightened, and an ominous premonition jumped into his heart. Constance's whole person's momentum suddenly changed and suddenly became extremely oppressive.

Eren had also encountered this feeling before, and that was the last time he faced Gavin on the battlefield. (To be continued.) )
