341 For the persistence in my heart
"Duh!"
The subwoofer roared, three subwoofers in a row, and a huge siege vehicle began to fall, Zou Liang, who had a bloody knife in one hand and a war song scepter in the other, was like a beast god possessed.
Everywhere they went, the warriors followed madly, invincible and powerful, invincible faith.
Under the light of the fire, Zou Liang was so conspicuous, and immediately a series of bows and arrows came towards him, and Buzz snorted and blocked the shield, this is his responsibility, at this moment he was sure that this man was the leader given to them by the beast god, and he would defend his safety with his life.
Bows and arrows were blocked by Bass, and if you can't stop it, you can catch it with your hands, and others may not be able to, but it's nothing for the beast fighter, and if you can't catch it, block it with your body, it's nothing!
It's a real battle.
Aioria stared at the man wielding the bloody knife and scepter, and after a moment, waved his hand: "Collect the troops!" β
The barbarian horn sounded again, only this time it was not an attack, but a retreat, and the black-pressed barbarian soldiers began to retreat...... It was the first day, and they held on.
There was no cheering on the city walls, because there was no strength left, it was a brief respite for Dolan City, but it was only the first day.
Zou Liang has no time to rest, he wants to command the deployment of strategic materials, today is just a revelation, tomorrow is the really difficult time, the enemy is indeed stronger than them, but they are besieging the city, they are for plundering, and Dolan City is for survival, there is no choice!
A few hours of hustle and bustle passed, "Arthur, take a break and get something to eat." β
Emma brought food, Zou Liang was busy and dizzy, but he knew that the meal must be full, the battle behind is even harder, he must maintain his physical strength, and he has to eat if he can't eat.
After taking the meal, squatting on the city wall, the smell of blood seemed to be just the seasoning, when the gaze fell back to Emma from afar, Emma at this time can not be described as beautiful, a brave female warrior is a real heart-warming charm.
"You...... Injured? Zou Liang's gaze fell on Emma's arm.
Emma shook her head indifferently, "Skin trauma, I also killed six enemies today!" β
Emma's smile looks particularly charming in the moonlight, why hasn't she noticed it before?
Zou Liang smiled, "Yes, Emma Xiaobing, you are very brave!" β
Emma's smile was full of concern, maybe this battle had changed both of them, and they both took a step towards maturity, "Arthur, you go and persuade Lu Yao, she is constantly healing, and her situation will be irresistible." β
"This girl, go, go and see!" Zou Liang immediately stood up, not everyone has a bug like him, especially Lu Yao's healing war song has a certain sacrifice component, and if it is excessive, it will hurt himself greatly.
Buzz silently followed Arthur, who was Arthur's bodyguard.
The town hall is the strongest, it has become a place to treat the wounded, when Zou Liang appeared, all the wounded struggled to stand up, this battle has made everyone think of Arthur as a god-like existence, this is the priest, this is the knight, this is the people of the beast god can trust.
"Rest well, everyone!" Zou Liang signaled that everyone did not have to be formal, and the priests of the war song were also helping, which was absolutely impossible before, and it was impossible to dream that the high priests would be like logistics personnel, but here they did it.
These were the priests of Jerusamo, and even though they were not from Doran City, everyone here regarded them as true brothers.
A few War Song priests with a slight tendency to heal were assisting Lu Yao in singing the Healing Battle Song, but Lu Yao's face was obviously extremely pale.
"Stop!"
"Lu Yao, you don't want to die!"
As soon as Lu Yao stopped, her body shook and the sky spun around, and she just supported her with her will, "Help her to rest." β
"No, I'm fine, I'm okay."
"Shut up, this is already your limit, you have to know, this is only the first day, it's not enough to fill in your life, have a good rest, there is a chance for you to play, just bandage the minor injury, only the seriously injured can use the healing battle song!"
Zou Liang said angrily, this girl really doesn't know whether to live or die.
For Zou Liang's anger, Lu Yao just smiled, this person is like this, always talking about others, what about himself?
But she's really tired, and also, it's the first day of fighting, and she has to be ready for a long fight.
The person who was still waiting for a cure, how did he know that this was something that would kill the priest, "We don't have to treat it, this little wound, what is it!" β
The one who speaks, one hand is missing.
"Brothers, let's go, go back to their posts, as soon as the morning dawns, this group of barbarians may come again!"
"Fight with them!"
Zou Liang looked at these people silently, and there was a strong voice in his heart, he must keep, he must keep!
Sure enough, as soon as the sky was bright, the barbarian attack began again, this time was the most exhausting time for people, whether it was to attack or defend the city, but obviously the barbarians were a little more strong, and they did not have the fatigue of the labor expedition, because when the barbarian cavalry was raging, they had already arrived one after another.
Obviously, the enemy is ruthless, and they will definitely capture Doran City today.
The barbarian soldiers rushed up without their lives, the catapults on both sides were roaring, and life was constantly falling, with yesterday's experience, Zou Liang commanded the battle more ruthlessly, and could not back down at all, even the wounded would not come down, everyone only had one way, either live to the end of the battle, or die on it.
This is the most brutal battle, and the battle song of the priesthood is roaring, and even if it is sung to the point of losing its voice, it must continue, and this is their duty, just as great.
Sophie's fingers have festered, this is the result of the continuous grinding of the scars, she has trained very hard, but it has never been like this time, this is a real war, she is glad that she is not lazy in her training, she is glad that she came, she can follow such a person for such a great battle, she does not regret it.
She is responsible for the city gate, she will never allow the enemy to break through, the city gate is in the people!
Catapults persistently attacked the city walls, and the barbarian soldiers also braved the rain of arrows to hit the city gates, but the walls of Dolan City were beyond imagination, and the city gates were indeed extremely strong, and there would be no effect in a short period of time, their only chance was to climb the city walls, but the soldiers guarding the city walls were crazy, and they would fight for every inch of the city with their lives.
For a whole day, countless corpses were left on both sides, and under the city walls, there were enemies and their own people, and night fell, and it was desolate.
The barbarian army had to retreat again, and after a long attack, their morale was also in trouble.
Inside the big tent, Aioria sat on the top and fell into deep thought, and the twelve generals under him were obviously a little depressed.
"Cambe, has the other party's commander found out?"
"Yes, it's Arthur. Hebrew, a probationary priest, seems to be only twenty years old, a Bill, with the Order of Glory of the Beast God and the Order of Holy War of the Golden Thorns, the two highest honors of the Holy See, the Archon of Doran City has fled, and the defenders of the city are the citizens of the city. β
There was a discussion in the tent, although they did not believe in the beast god, but they still knew the title of the beast god priest and holy war knight, a young man less than twenty years old...... The most important thing is that he turned a group of soft Mengjia sheep into a group of lions.
Anyone who has fought knows that this group of beasts defending the city are completely crazy, and they don't want to die at all, as if they didn't die themselves.
Everyone looked at Aioria, their losses were already very large, if they had known that there were such losses, they might not have come to attack Doran City at all, but now it is difficult to ride a tiger, if they do not take Dolan City, they will also be attacked by their opponents when they return to the wilderness.
"Take a day off, I think, we'll have a turnaround." A sneer appeared at the corner of Aioria's mouth, two fierce battles in a row, the soldiers needed to rebuild their morale, and continuous impact was not a good thing.
The momentum of the drum is like a tiger, but unfortunately this time he underestimated the opponent, I didn't expect Meng Jia to have such a capable person, I thought there was only one Nebero, tsk, Arthur. Hebrew, what a war song of JΔ«ng Zhan, this young man has already given him an interest in making a move.
The barbarian attacks stopped, and in the distance there were countless camps, black and oppressive, but the people in the city were no longer afraid, fearing such a thing, and in such a war there would soon be no place for it, and courage had safely prevailed.
Zou Liang didn't dare to be careless at all, the opponent was very powerful, he failed in two attacks, and the next time it will be even more amazing.
"Your Excellency, Lord Arthur, ah, Lord Arthur, you are here."
"Monaco priest, why did you come up?" Zou Liang said lightly, everyone is different, although this Monaco is not cowardly, but it finally has the courage to live and die with the city.
"Lord Arthur, you are truly the messenger of the beast god, these two battles are enough to go down in the history of Mongar, you are really great."
Monaco is here to make a fuss.
Zou Liang looked into the distance, "The great thing is that every knight here, the priest of Monaco, I need you to mobilize the rich merchants in the city to take out all the stored houses, I think whoever hid it, who did his best You should know, we are in danger now, the enemy's offensive will only be stronger than one wave, and they have killed so many people, once the city is broken, we will suffer more cruel retaliation, I hope they all understand this." β
Monaco was stunned for a moment, and slapped his thigh suddenly, "Lord Arthur, what you said is so right, how did I forget, yes, these bastards, the bad roots of the merchants, I'll do it right away,...... Oh, are you assigning me a few people? β
"Kurt, Randy, you guys take a few people to get it!"
"Yes, big brother!"
Repeated fierce battles, huge consumption, and those nobles and rich people in the city took out a little, but it was far from enough, half of the city's wealth was in their hands, Zou Liang would never believe that they had taken it out, people always have a fluke mentality, but this kind of luck psychology will kill people, and other people will die, they must at least give some food.
The colorful falcon has already gone out, but it is difficult to say whether it can fly to the rescue city, but such a big thing, I think the empire already knows, as long as it sticks to it, as soon as the reinforcements arrive, the barbarians will inevitably retreat.
Zou Liang knew this truth, and the commander of the other party must also know it.
Just as Zou Liang thought, Aioria's original plan was to encircle the point and send reinforcements, but now it is no longer possible, the consumption of Dolan City is too great, and if he is not careful, his army will take in, and he can't let his prestige be dampened.
"Chief, someone has been caught!"
A fat guy was thrown in, and a smile appeared on Aeoria's face.
"Dear Archon, my subordinates are so rude, come, watch, I want to have a good chat with the Archon!"
At this time, the selection of dìdū, southern provinces, northern provinces, and dìdū were all very successful, and the papal purpose was fully achieved, and Benedictine XV was indeed chūn in a hurry and in a good mood recently.
But Sablanca seems to be late to the province of Divine Grace today, and that's not his style!
The other shamans and priests were also waiting, and it was not a good thing to be late at such a time.
The Pope was asking without a match, and Sablanca stumbled in, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not good!" β
Benedictine XV glanced at the other party with a faint expression, "Sablanca Shaman, say something slowly." β
"Your Majesty, I just received an urgent report from the Colorful Falcon from the Divine Grace Province, and the border barbarians are attacking Dolan City with an army of 100,000 under the leadership of the demon lion Aioria!"
The audience was silent.
Bang...... "How to report this kind of thing, what is the situation, who is the chief priest of the temple there, who is the archon, what is the food!" β
Sablanca wiped his sweat, he thought that the barbarians were just fighting the autumn wind, who would have thought that these barbarians would be bold enough to attack the city.
"The consul has fled, and is now led by Arthur the priest to defend the city, and he asks for support."
There was another round of whispering in the audience. "Sablanca, you old immortal, I'll just say, how did you let Arthur go to Doran City for the trial, you old bastard, you knew the barbarians would come, didn't you!" Subaru exploded in front of the Pope.
What is the situation in Dolan City, everyone knows it, the border cities are all the same, 100,000 troops, this is still the destruction of the city, no wonder Subaru is angry like this.
"Your Majesty, wronged, I really don't know, who knew that the barbarians would quietly gather an army of 100,000."
Sablanca's sweat is falling down, if the city of Dolan is broken, he will not be able to escape the shaman's involvement, let alone being the pope, whether he can keep the shaman's position is a question.
No matter how the Holy See and the consuls fight, it is internal, but the loss of the city, whether it is a shaman or a satrap, is an unbearable burden.
The whole hall was like a frying pan, and the pope's expression sank, but at the critical moment, Benedictine XV showed extraordinary calmness, and his loose eyes shone brightly.
"You're saying that Dolan City is now on the lookout for help?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, yes, according to reports from nearby cities, they have blocked the attack of the barbarian army for two days." Sablanca wiped her sweat.
"Sablanca Shaman, are you talking about being sensational, using the people of Dolan City to block the army of 100,000, are you joking, or do you want to shirk your responsibility?"
"Fran Shaman, I swear to heaven that I will not miss a word on the information, and the information of the apostles will arrive soon."
Just as Sablan said, the people from the apostolic ranks also came, they were just a step slower, and it was William who sent the latest information, obviously also very familiar with the Pope.
The intelligence of the apostolic ranks is more accurate.
"Good, good, good!" The Pope also had a kind of old man talking about juvenile madness, and applauded loudly, "Arthur, this kid really lived up to my expectations, Doran City is now all soldiers, sworn to resist the barbarian invasion, Sablanca, the two closest cities to Dolan City are Hamm City and Ceylon City, these two cities are still free to wait and see, give me an order, if Dolan City is broken, all the priests are waiting to be burned at the stake!" β
Benedictine XV's eyes showed a heavy murderous intent, and at this moment, he finally revealed his true intentions.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Sablanca nodded hurriedly.
"What are you doing in a daze, go quickly!"
"Yes, yes!" Sablanca hurriedly rushed out, he didn't expect that Arthur would lead a group of peasants to block the barbarian army, did the beast god appear?
"What did Sanchez say?"
"Your Majesty, the consul's army is already mobilizing, and the ranks of the apostles are also moving, but it will take three days at the earliest, I'm afraid it will be ......"
William didn't continue, he was also extremely optimistic about Arthur's kid, but the reality is still very cruel, and every day at this time can lead to changes in results.
"Whatever it takes, bring Arthur back!"
The Pope's voice was low, so low that only William could hear it.
A hint of surprise flashed in William's eyes, but he immediately nodded respectfully.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
It's easy to say, but I don't know when I do it, this thing can only be left to fate, Aeoria is as powerful as Nebeiro, a representative of the emerging generation on the mainland, the apostles don't know how many people have been sent to assassinate him, but the other party is alive and well, and none of the people who went have returned.
Such a person will inevitably become one of the most terrifying powerhouses in the future.
The enemy's army is obviously showing signs of moving, Zou Liang is observing carefully, this is a bit wrong, the frontal attack has been for so long, why turn around?
And it's not too hidden, and it's not too hidden? Obviously this is.
"Monaco Priest, the enemy seems to be about to change the direction of attack, are there any weaknesses in the defense of our Dolan City, for example, some wall has been damaged, such as an earthquake, or something?"
"No, the walls of our city of Dolan are constantly being strengthened and impregnable...... "Suddenly Monaco's face lost its blood," it seems that there is a place where the consul thought that the original gate was too small and not atmospheric, so he blocked it, and then made the current gate. β
When he boarded, Zou Liang's heart also chuckled, this time it was over, they had thousands of casualties in these two battles, and the enemy definitely exceeded 10,000 people, but this was under the protection of the city wall, once the gap was opened...... The enemy's catapults were all moving in one direction, and it was clear that there was no luck here.
"How's the reinforcement going?" Generally speaking, if this is the case, it must be stronger than the surrounding walls, but the face of Monaco says it all, and when you think about the consul's person, everything is known.
"Gather everyone at once!"
"Yes, sir!"
The sky is getting darker, the enemy has not attacked, the army is moving little by little, the catapult is about to be in place, Aeolia looks into the distance, this is the last battle, Arthur. Hebrew, the name he remembered, but today was the time of the young man's death, and he was going to take matters into his own hands.
And behind the city walls, all the living Dolan orcs arrived.
Everyone knows what they are up against, and this wall is their lifeline.
Zou Liang looked at these people, three days of fighting, they lived and died together, today may be the last battle, Zou Liang knew that without the protection of the city wall, he had no chance of winning, not at all.
But he had to fight, even if he died, and many times people had no choice, just like he came here without a choice.
God has treated him well, he has already given him another chance, and there is a woman who belongs to him, and he doesn't need to regret anything.
Boom Rumble...... It was the sound of the enemy's army advancing, and the city was silent.
There is no fear, no sorrow, at this moment, everyone's eyes only have a fighting spirit.
Zou Liang turned his head and looked at the brothers who followed him, "Being able to fight with you is the greatest pride in my life!" β
Ernest and the others clenched the weapons in their hands, they followed this man, willing to live and die with him!
Sou...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ...... One by one, the boulders bombarded the city wall, the city wall collapsed instantly, the dust was all over the sky, the horn of the barbarians sounded, and they rushed over like bloodthirsty demon beasts for three days Zou Liang took a deep breath, and the mystery mentioned the apex, "Beast God ~~~ Glory!" β
The glory of the beast god rushed ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ people like crazy, the archers raged, and the barbarians and the beasts fought like two torrents near the city walls.
Meat heap meat!
The first contact is the craziest and most tragic.
Kill! Kill! Kill ......kill Zou Liang's bloody sword is reaping, Ernist's battle axe is roaring, everyone is desperately rushing forward, Sophie's bow and arrow are killing indifferently, and her hand has lost consciousness, but so what?
The corpses piled higher and higher, but neither side had any intention of stopping, Zou Liang's body was almost numb, he didn't know how many he had killed, one after another.
Ernest was stabbed twice, the third was blocked by Kurt for him, but Kurt was also stabbed in the leg, and Randy cut off the barbarian's head, blood was flying, and there was nothing more important at this moment.
Buzz punched one by one, but the distance between him and Arthur was widened, and it was impossible to follow under this kind of battle, and strong men also appeared among the barbarian warriors, especially a few Beamon pioneers, and the warriors died one by one under their claws.
When the arrow came, Kalaw was completely unable to react, and a figure stood in front of him, Lanya, the object of his long-time crush, the warsong priest of his team, and the hand of the beautiful woman was in front of him...... Whew~~~~~~ Kalou waved his dagger frantically, and went berserk and killed, die, die, die.
The priests sang war songs and brandished their weapons, this is the real war song priests!
"Arthur. Hebrew, your time of death has come! β
A loud and bewitching voice sounded from Zou Liang's ears, and a figure in the sky fell from the sky and slashed at him with a sword.
The barbarians are as excited as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, the first master of the wilderness - the demon lion Aeolia!
Rumble...... Zou Liang resisted completely instinctively, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his chest, and the huge force almost destroyed it directly!
This is the strength of Aeolia!
The barbarians went mad, and the raging enemy leader was killed by his own leader with a single blow!
Aioria who was in the air sighed, but he didn't expect a copper-level priest to block the blow, and was about to make a second attack, when he suddenly felt the fluctuations in the space around him, and snorted coldly, "Miscellaneous fish, get out!" β
Rumble...... A punch was struck, Joyna's figure appeared, Catwoman was hit by a punch and fell from the air softly, Sophie's arrow was also caught by Aeolia, she suddenly opened her mouth, and with a loud roar, a ball of light blasted out, and the city wall was instantly blasted away, and Sophie was also blown out.
This is Aeoria the Demon Lion.
The furious lion's roar was no less than that of Warsong, but Aeolia had only one goal, and that was Arthur, and that was the only one in this place worthy of his attack.
And Zou Liang has already fought, holding the Blood Battle Crazy Sword with both hands, this is definitely Jin Yao's level strength, and he only has one chance!
Aioria let out a playful smile, and her body moved, and she wanted to resist.
When a sword is cut down, do you take your life to block it?
Ernest and the others were outside, rushing here like crazy, but it was too late.
Zou Liang's mood is like water, there is no life and no death, the only chance, when you feel the cold - time stands still!
Aioria's sword was extremely fast, from feeling it to be launched, just in an instant, the long sword pierced a little, and at this time, Zou Liang slashed down with all his strength, and the sword slightly towards Airia's neck.
A second is actually a moment.
Scold...... Middle!
Aioria's neck tilted suddenly, and she licked her lips, blood running down the knife, "What a pity, it's almost there!" β
The knife was cut into it and was clamped, and in the fierce battle, Zou Liang's speed slowed down!
The sword stabbed through...... At this moment, time seemed to stand still, and in the end, it still did not survive this hurdle.
Blood Splatter...... Aioria was also stunned, a woman ...... actually blocked him, he didn't like to kill women...... Otherwise, that hunting shadow won't be able to escape...... Aioria's sword pierced Emma's chest, and in an instant, Zou Liang's ears lost sound, his brain went blank, and Emma's eyes did not have pain, just looked at him, full of reluctance.
Crystal beads fell from the owner's chest, which was the only gift Zou Liang gave to Emma.
"Ya...... Se, I'm ...... Love...... You. It wasn't until this moment that Emma mustered up her courage.
The voice was like a lightning strike, and it was the first time in two lifetimes that a woman had said this to him, and this woman did not have the courage to say it until she died, because she felt that she was not worthy of him.
I don't know how much time has passed, Zou Liang didn't think of Oricia, although everyone thought that he was working hard for her, including Zou Liang himself, he and Oricia should be together, but I don't know where to start, he thought more about Emma, his little "slave girl", is it only because of **?
It wasn't until this moment that Zou Liang knew that the person he loved the most had always been by his side, always by his side!
"You are Arthur, do you know who I am, I am the daughter of the consul, you dare to despise me!"
Emma's voice seemed to be still in his ears, the first time the two met, Emma's haughty expression, that lovely girl, for his change, for his tolerance, for everything he had done...... Zou Liang hugged Emma and hugged him tightly, thinking that he was not afraid of anything, but why do people only understand when they lose.
Aeoria's mood was completely ruined, he hated killing women with his own hands the most, anyway, if one died, let the two of them go together.
Aeolia's sword was raised high and slashed at Arthur.
wo~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ah~~~~~~~~ boom boom...... Everyone on the battlefield, whether barbarian or orc, heard a thunderous sound in their ears, and this voice sounded directly from their heads.
