Chapter 36: Breaking the Mountain
"Report, no one in the house. The sergeants searched all the houses along the way, but they didn't see half a figure, and they couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Faced with this situation, although the anger in Sham's chest could not be vented, he was not completely dazed. If you think about it a little calmer, there are dancers hidden in this town that are enough to wipe out more than 20 people including Angri.
It doesn't matter who it is. Once you disobey the Red Wolf Army, you must die, but if the other party dares to rebel, there will be some reliance, and you need to be careful.
Aunt Xia is proud of the strength of her team, but she also understands the truth of capsizing in the gutter, and he seems to be careless and careless, and he can become a senior officer in the elite army directly under the king, relying on more than just a strong force.
"My lord, do you want to search the town separately?" suggested the loyal guard beside him.
"Nope. Sham said coldly, "Don't be fooled by this empty appearance, they must be hiding somewhere here, if our army detachment searches, it is likely to hit the trap!"
"Listen to my orders. The whole queue is in a defensive posture, and it remains central!"
"The fourth, fifth, and sixth squads are dressed with bows and arrows, and they are on high alert, and if they see any suspicious characters, they will be killed!"
Daodao instructions are issued. The sergeants, who were originally a little loose in the queue, lined up in a majestic formation, the left and right flanks and the rear were covered by a special team, and there were three squads in the center to converge their swords, change their strong bows, and look around with sharp eyes.
"There is no dispersion. Instead, stay focused and be on alert."
In the shadows, Chloe muttered in a low voice as she watched cautiously.
"What's your plan? or let me go out and break them up?" Chongyang squatted beside her, casually drawing a formation diagram on the ground with his fingers.
Chloe ignored him, crept away from the window, and gestured in several directions to the balcony on the other side.
On the houses from all angles, Jaken and the other men understood the instructions of the eldest sister, and quickly withdrew from the observation point and disappeared into the alleys and alleys of the town.
It is worth mentioning here the topography of the town of Moromok, where most of the buildings are built on the terrain of the valley. There are no norms on the whole, the penalties for the area are not very strict, and the form is also left to the builders and their families to be creative as they please.
Therefore, there are wooden houses, stone houses, small buildings with several floors, bungalows with domes or sloping roofs, scattered peasant households, and whole family courtyards close to each other at a glance.
Before Angli could be sent back to anger the Red Wolves, the town's old and weak women and children were all moved to a few family compounds in the rear, while all the men who could fight took up their weapons and equipment and waited for them, including hunters who were accustomed to the mountains, strong and tall blacksmiths, agile carpenters, and self-taught swordsmen.
Compared with the elite Red Wolf Army on the battlefield, the gap in combat power between these ordinary townspeople is indeed huge, and if they are faced head-on, they are undoubtedly a vulnerable rabble. But even so, they have the greatest advantage over their enemies, which is to know every corner of their homeland.
This is their home turf, and the so-called battle is not just a matter of conventional means.
Chongyang is unaware of the counterattack plan of the locals under Chloe's leadership, and he is the strongest fighting force on the town's side. It is not impossible to think that it is impossible to single-handedly take on the entire Red Wolf Squadron, but the female swordsman may not believe it. Perhaps it was intended to lay the foundation for the townspeople's struggle with this battle, and did not mean to let him take the lead in the battle.
The Red Wolf Army, which marched around the array, and the locals, who were not even militiamen, conveyed information in all corners, moved quietly, and prepared nervously and cautiously.
"If you don't disperse, we have a way. ”
Chloe spied on the enemy's movements as she scurried along the double ropes that the townspeople had set up between the roof of the building and the roof of the compound, and her posture was as graceful as that of a nimble cat.
Chongyang didn't know how to walk a tightrope stunt, and in order to keep up with the pace of the female swordsman, he had to use magic to create a simple transfer magic circle, which slid over the double rope like an ice skate.
By the time he reached Chloe's side, the Red Wolf Army in the street below had just stepped into a narrow block, and the townsfolk waited for this moment to communicate with each other with covert gestures and begin to move in unison.
"One, two, three, hey!"
Jacon yelled. Together with the others, the basins of yellow-white powder that had been prepared in their hands were poured down towards the hundreds of sergeants huddled together in the streets.
"Enemy attack!" shouted the reactive sergeant, and the heavily guarded central squad immediately fired arrows in the direction of the figure, but the townsfolk poured powder and retracted their heads and immediately withdrew, not a single one of them being injured by the arrows.
All the arrows missed. And the yellow and white powder that floated down from the air was mostly contaminated with the body of the Red Wolf Sergeant, making the original majestic lineup very embarrassing.
"What is this?" Chongyang wondered.
"You don't even know about "slime powder?" Chloe gave him a blank look.
Without waiting for Chongyang to ask what the so-called clay powder was, the second group of ambushed townspeople looked up from different angles, roared in unison, and poured basins of cold water into the air.
"Not good!" Squadron Leader Xia Mu's face suddenly changed, and his whole body was shocked, and the surrounding void suddenly distorted, revealing a layer of pale cyan haze
When Jiang Shui, who was tempted to splash down with the heavy curtain of abrupt form, when he touched this layer of cyan halo, it silently penetrated, decomposed, and destroyed.1 It was completely swallowed like a thick sponge, and it didn't splash a single cent on Sham's body.
The Great Sword Master's Body Protector Qi Chongyang keenly noticed this scene.
Meanwhile. The other sergeants who had not cultivated to the level of the Great Sword Master and could not exert their qi were poured with clear water that was splashed down one after another, and they were transparent. When the cold water fuses with the previous yellow-white powder, a violent reaction suddenly occurs, and a huge heat erupts, and the white smoke is steamed.
Heart-rending screams resounded through the void! The fierce armor that the Red Wolf Sergeants were proud of had now turned into a high-temperature iron furnace that almost killed them!
"Clay powder is the material used to bond stone slabs in the town's houses, and when mixed with water, it is instantly ***, hot enough to cook a whole pot of eggs. ”
Chloe's faint explanation sounded, combined with the terrible screams below, which seemed very cold
"Take off your armor if you've fallen into the enemy's trap!" shouted Sham.
It was not practical for him to order, many sergeants out of survival instinct, have been using the fastest speed to remove the armor, but the burns are really serious, when taking off the armor, they tear pieces of skin, blood is dripping, and the pain is incomparable.
A third wave of ambushed townsfolk appeared. Assault detachment 1, consisting mainly of hunters skilled in the use of bows and arrows, fired insidious cold arrows at the disarmoured sergeant of pain, killing a dozen in the blink of an eye. Person.
"There's a shot!
Sham was completely enraged, and slashed at the nearest ambush spot with a powerful sword move, the power tearing through the ground all the way, slamming through the walls of the two-story building, and sending the hunter flying before he could dodge.
"It's our turn, Onisha!"
Chloe got up and shouted, jumping down from where she was hiding, and with a single sword, she killed two of her troops, and slaughtered herself into the enemy group, causing even more chaos.
"It's been a long time. Chongyang pulled out his green teeth and leaped out of the roof, like an eagle falling from the sky, and went straight to the leader of the military array.
Sham, who was about to shoot a second sword at another ambush spot, suddenly felt something and looked up at the sky1 and looked at each other with the black-haired young man with a bandage on his face.
The big sword "breaks." The "magic sword" and "green fang" were cleaved out almost at the same time!
Peng Long The fireworks were all over the sky, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and the collision of the two powerhouses burst out with a violent shock wave, so strong that the nearby sergeants were swept away.
In a moment, the smoke and dust drifted away, and in the center of the venue, Chongyang and Aunt Xia, respectively, held a sharp sword wrapped around green flames, and a big sword with a faint blue light, and they were holding each other to death.
"You're the bandit leader who dares to rebel!?" shouted Sham, his eyes rage.
"Those who are dying do not need to know my name. Chongyang said coldly.
Boom The two slashed again, rushing backwards in opposite directions, facing each other again from a distance.
The situation around him was chaotic, Chloe led the townspeople to fight with the advantage of the situation, and the Red Wolf Sergeant reacted quickly with his excellent military qualities even if he was conspired against, and did his best to turn the situation around.
Shouting to kill the sky, blood splashed everywhere, swords broke the wind and small flying arrows roared In the midst of the disturbance, only Chongyang and Shamu fell into a strange silence against each other.
"This person is very strong, and his cultivation will never be below me, and a small country in the district has such a strong person!?"
"Is that sword the so-called famous sword?
Chongyang stared at the other party's weapon, and vaguely felt that from the bottom of his heart, no, it should be from the depths of his mind, something that seemed to have been buried for a long time.
In an instant, when the strange feeling spread, he seemed to see a strange picture: in the same battlefield where blood was splashed and killing was rampant, a monster with a body as tall as two or three times that of an ordinary person1 resembling an ape-like man, wearing hideous and barbed armor, holding a large sword with a negative mountain pattern in both hands, respectfully kneeling on one knee in front of him.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness, and I will die in retribution. ”
A thick and thick voice came out of the weirdo's mouth.
"Hou Fei, this is just a little reward for your meritorious service in leading the army, there is no need to be so heavy. This weapon made for you doesn't have a name yet, so it's up to you to name it. ”
Chongyang heard himself say such words, gentle and calm, extremely charismatic as a leader.
"This is my glory, Your Majesty. You said that this sword is a fusion of the idea of the earth and mountains, then I will name it "Breaking." "It means that I will use it to break all obstacles in front of His Majesty, even the heaviest mountain in the world!"
