Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Opportunity to Drive Straight In
On the plains of Thrace, several Seljuk demigods are joining forces to defend themselves against the attacks of the Blue Sword.
The black flames of the fire of sin filled the sky, blocking the trail of the pursuers behind; Countless words spat out from the sleeves of the robes of the scriptures, stabbing at the girls like a noose; Another demigod, the "Demon Lord", quickly cast a magic circle and summoned several demons from purgatory.
Teleported from purgatory, a humanoid devil with long curved horns and sheep's hooves, and the sulfur-soaked scales on his arms were still burning with flames.
These demons are the genetic prototypes of Medea's "Purgatory Succubus" bloodline. Or that her bloodline can be traced upwards to an embryonic ancestor who received a devil's gene transfer.
So when these demons appeared, Medea immediately felt something.
Even in purgatory, the Eclipses are the best objects for the succubi to enslave. A few threads of mind shot out, and soon the claw demons were brought under control.
She then manipulated the demons and swung the butcher's knife again towards the demigod lord who had summoned them.
The Demon Lord hurriedly shot out a flaming whip to entangle the suddenly betrayed Horn Demons, and began to compete with Medea for the dominance of these demons.
In the air, the flower-like black flames that had been spewed out by the fire of guilt were pierced by a few bursts of honey, and then disappeared one after another—they were transferred to a parallel world.
Countless vine branches and buds suddenly grew out of the soil, blocking the noose of the words of the scripture scroll, and both sides turned into powder at the same time.
Eleanor and Peggy had already rushed forward, slashing at the three Seljuk demigods from both directions, but it was Mia who was faster than them, rushing between them with a teleport.
Dimensional Storm!
The distorted space storm swept around, and for a while, within the perception of the Seljuk demigods, it seemed to completely rotate upside down, left and right, front and back.
Eleanor, who was shining all over, rushed to the front of the fire of guilt, and the spear in her hand sparkled with will.
Because of the upside-down perception by the dimensional storm, it is difficult to move. The fire of guilt could only suddenly open the body conceptualization, and it was hard to eat this spear through, but Eleanor had already attached the flame of the [Judgment] skill to the tip of the spear, so that the concept that made up his body was immediately ignited.
Peggy also rushed upward, stabbing the short sword in her right hand at the scroll sword, and with her left hand, she pulled out a black light that cursed death, and shot at the Demon Lord with a flick of her arm.
The Demon Lord hurriedly pressed his hands and summoned a huge Bad Demon Lord.
As soon as the Devil Lord, who was several stories tall, appeared, he took Peggy's curse on behalf of the demigod, and his huge body immediately exploded, and countless spikes shot out in all directions.
Mia, who was in range, immediately jumped and fled. Eleanor was still chasing the Flame of Sin, but at this time, she could only temporarily turn into a streamer and quickly stop these spikes to prevent them from shooting at the girls who were not demigods in the back.
The three Seljuk demigods kept their bodies conceptual at the same time, and rushed towards Constantinople in the distance with dense spikes. Peggy's body exploded in the sprint, turning into a cloud of blood and speeding up again, trying to envelop the fleeing three demigods.
In the end, it was just stained with the arm of the scripture scroll knife text, and the other party was quite decisive, and directly exploded the arm as well, turning into countless conceptual words, which were sucked dry by Peggy's life absorption.
"Is that the wall of Theodosius ahead?" Nora descended from the sky, folded her wings made of white feathers, and looked out at the huge wall in the distance and the three demigods who had crossed it.
She remembered that when the Crusaders were attacking the city, her group happened to be returning from a mission to hunt down the Templars, and she saw black smoke burning behind the walls of Constantinople.
Four years later, behind the walls is still Constantinople, but it lives in it...... It's not Solomon anymore.
Sheila stared blankly at the walls of Theodosius, and heard Aske say:
"Yes."
"Are we going to attack directly?" Eleanor asked.
"I can't hold it if I capture it, just our people, forget it." Aske replied, "Let's go back first." ”
Immediately afterward, a spiritual epiphany came to Sheila's mind.
"Got it?" Asker asked suddenly.
"Hmm." Sheila nodded.
"I'll talk about it later." Aske said calmly.
……………………
The Azure Sword slowly returned on this side, and the morale of the mercenaries in the crusader position on the other side also became extremely high.
After easily capturing the fortress of Egnatia, everyone learned that several demigods of the Azure Sword were chasing the fire of guilt to the east.
Anyway, where did the demigods come from!
Of course, no matter how hard they may belief, the truth is always in front of them: if it weren't for the extraordinary strength of the Blue Sword, it would not have been possible to force the demigod of Sinfire to flee in the direction of Constantinople.
Therefore, everyone subconsciously accepted the fact that the Azure Sword had at least two demigods, and began to accept the defense of the fortress of Egnatia with peace of mind.
Even the head of Matthews, who originally brought in Apyrios to intervene, completely abandoned his previous caliber at this time, and began to praise the blue sword - the mercenary is so good at seeing the wind and steering, and when he sees that he can't do anything, he immediately turns around and jumps his face. I didn't share the sky with you in the last second, and I can call you a brother and sister in the next second.
However, a mercenary group with several demigods can't help but surrender without him.
After taking control of the Fortress of Agnatia, the Iron Cross mercenary group sent people to the east to find the traces of the Azure Sword. In essence, of course, the trail of Her Royal Highness Sophie.
The previous crusaders' concerns also applied to the Azure Sword. If you go alone, you will be in danger of being cut off by the enemy, for example, if two demigods on your side chase and kill a demigod, and as a result, they gather three demigods to circle the back, which will be quite troublesome.
The Iron Cross sent someone to check the trail, while the Wind of Liberty pretended to be concerned and sent a team of scouts to follow. Not for anything else, just to welcome the Azure Sword of Triumphant Return as soon as possible, so as to repair the previous relationship...... After all, Matthews was still questioning Eleanor's strength before, and although he put on a matter-of-fact attitude, it always made the other party unhappy.
After about two hours, the scouts returned.
Andrea listened attentively, then stood up with a serious face, and said:
"I'm sorry, everyone, I just learned the news that my pregnant wife in my hometown is going to give birth, I have to go back and see it quickly."
"That's that, that's." After all, as parents, the mercenary captains expressed their understanding, so they sent Andrea away, thinking that there would probably be one less competitor next.
Andrea left the fortress hall with Herman, leaving only some of the necessary men, and leaving the fortress with the remaining mercenaries of the Iron Cross Mercenary Regiment.
The recruiter Pablo Sr. was wandering around, inspecting the injuries of the recruits in the Bull Mercenary Regiment, when he saw the Iron Cross group leaving in full gear, and it seemed that the direction they were going was ...... Orient?
Feeling a little puzzled, he crept into the fortress hall and spoke to Grand Master Deslal, who was sitting in a chair.
Hearing this, Commander Deslar thought for a moment, and suddenly his face changed, and he said in a low voice:
"Send a pair of scouts to the east to investigate...... No, two teams of scouts, one team to follow the main force of the Iron Cross, and the other team to the east to investigate! Then all the mercenaries are ready to go, waiting for my orders! ”
"What's wrong?" Seeing that old Pablo hurried down after getting Deslar's order, the commanders of the other mercenary groups joked, "Is your Deslar's wife in Iberia about to give birth?" If you want to give birth, go back quickly! ”
"Hahaha, a little family matter, I don't bother you anymore." Deslar snorted, noncommittal.
After a few moments, the Scouts of the Winds of Liberty also arrived and spoke secretly with Matthews.
Matthews's city was obviously a little shallower, and when he heard this, he immediately stood up and was about to go outside.
"What, is Captain Matthews' wife going to give birth too?" The head of the mercenary group continued to joke.
"Brother and sister." Matthews said casually absentmindedly, "My younger sibling is about to give birth, I'll go back and see." ”
So the men of the winds of liberty also left the fortress, and then the head of the Viking mercenary regiment, Hagaral, sneered, and said:
"Why do you have to take care of your younger siblings when they are born? Could it be that this Matthews has a leg with his brother and sister? His brother and sister can't be the same person as Andrea's wife......"
He laughed hahaha, and then, as if he had thought of something, the rough laughter stopped abruptly, and he hurriedly found someone to come over, and let him go down after a few words.
"You have a brother or sister too?" The leader of the gold coin mercenary group asked coldly.
"Ahem, who doesn't have a brother or sister." Hagalal coughed, "I'll go out and walk around." ”
Waiting for Hagalal to leave, even the leader of the mercenary group, who was very nervous, sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly ordered the left and right to send people to follow Matthews, who had just left, to see what these guys were doing.
