Chapter 40: Phantom War (10)

A glow, a fiery red glow like a burning flame, accompanied by a huge arc of sword qi slashed through the defeated rout from the front, setting off a flash of light and a loud bang with a mesmerizing vision.

The screams and wails were like a neon phantom glow and loud noise, and the "hell" in front of "Fan Xiu" was completely achieved.

"Fan Xiu" created such a "hell" not long ago. used the only "Ground Splitting Slash" to create a small, insignificant "hell" in the eyes of a few people in the Iron Childish Army.

More than 20 people died, and the scene of stumps and broken arms flying around was like hell for Fan Xiuning Yuan, who was possessed. Later, under the continuous brutal killing, Ning Yuan's feeling began to numb and fade, because this was war.

But at this moment, Ning Yuan was a little suspicious.

Killing and being killed in war is a matter of course. Sometimes it is understandable to kill your own soldiers, such as the Warlords killing deserters, the fears, disobeyers, and so on. But even the most brutal Warlords are only small-scale killers, and no matter how brutal they are, there will be a degree.

The "hell" in front of you is completely different.

It was a murder without a purpose, and it was a torture.

Nearly 100 of the hundreds of Tiezhi Army routs were directly killed, and nearly 200 were cut off by the glorious aftermath.

Corpses, severed limbs, flying entrails, scattered blood plasma, lava ravines filled with red glow, wailing, screaming, dying whimpering, coughing, and bellows-like wheezing.

All of this constitutes "Fan Xiu" and the "hell" a few feet away in front of everyone behind him.

All the surviving Tiezhi army in front of the "Fan Xiu" department had fled to both sides crying, and at this moment, the front of the "Fan Xiu" department was in full view.

Originally, this should have been the best time for the "Fan Xiu" division to break through, because there were no enemy troops in front of them.

But "Fan Xiu" and everyone under his command subconsciously stopped.

The scene of "hell" constantly stimulated everyone's eyes, especially Ning Yuan, who was possessed by Fan Xiu, from the first time he saw his corpse that was bitten off his neck by the Qingfeng wolf and gnawed, he once again had a nauseous feeling of wanting to vomit.

Even if he himself created a little "hell" not long ago, he didn't feel as disgusting and wanted to vomit as he does now.

"Fan Xiu" or more importantly, Ning Yuan can't figure it out, why is this? Aren't they allies? Didn't they come for reinforcements? The direction of the rout of these soldiers is not where they originally gathered, is it?

Why come directly from both sides to intercept these routs? Why is the interception done in such a brutal way? Why did a ground-level cultivator insist on creating such a "hell" when he could kill everyone within his range in an instant with the strength that had been blessed to the limit?

Is Xiu Yuanjun or Fan Xiu really so important in their eyes?

If you want to provoke a war, why do you choose a small "Xiuyuan City" far away from the territory of the "Qin Alliance"?

Looking over the hell in front of him and looking at the two generals standing tall in front of the two troops that were moving horizontally from both sides and lined up a hundred zhang in front of him, Ning Yuan's mind kept circling three words "why".

A bright silver tiger head armor, a seven-foot red ring knife, a proud and indifferent handsome face, and flying half-length red hair.

Ice blue rhino shoulder armor, five-foot broken ice sword, blue hair covering blue eyes, independent posture, elegant and handsome face, evil smile is fascinating.

I have to say that the tall posture and handsome faces of the two earth-level cultivators standing proudly in front of them, as well as the unique temperament that stands out from the crowd, are very eye-catching. If there was no "hell" in front of him, Ning Yuan would definitely have an inexplicable sense of closeness to these two people for the first time.

It's a pity that this discordant and weird and terrifying scene in front of him made Ning Yuan's first sense of the two of them extremely bad. Especially the red-haired young man with a haughty look and an indifferent face.

There is no doubt that this is the maker of the "hell" in front of him. A fire-attribute Ground Rank cultivator.

The two sides watched quietly for a while, and "Fan Xiu" stepped forward, and said in a hoarse and majestic voice: "The two don't seem to be the generals of Tiezhi City?" ”

"The deputy general of the Yanliu City Flame Regiment, the fire belongs to the earth-level school-level cultivator - 'Flame Bursting Knife' Liu Yan." The arrogant and translucent voice of the red-haired youth came.

"Ice Claw City, the deputy general of the Youshui Division, the Ice Attribute Ground Rank School Cultivator - the 'Ice Shattering Sword' Cold Evil." The corners of the blue-haired handsome young man's mouth rose, revealing a charming smile of evil spirit, and continued in a voice that cooled the evil spirit.

"Fan Xiu" frowned slightly, and asked as if he was puzzled, "Yanliu City?" Ice Mantis City? It doesn't seem to be this city-state with a radius of thousands of miles, right? I don't know where the two city-states are located? And why did you meddle in this city-state war launched by Tiezhi City against my Xiuyuan City for no reason? ”

The arrogant and handsome Liu Yan and the handsome and evil Leng Xie glanced at each other, and they both chuckled.

Leng Evil smiled and said in a mocking tone: "When you are captured, you will naturally understand." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and gave the order to attack.

"Fan Xiu" raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and said, "Slow!" ”

Leng Xie and Liu Yan's eyes narrowed, and Liu Yan stepped forward and said arrogantly: "What? This is going to surrender? ”

The corners of Fan Xiu's mouth twitched, revealing a sarcastic smile, and said: "If you had known at the beginning of the war that there would be so many different city-states targeting my Xiaoxiao Xiuyuan City, maybe there would have been a plan to surrender at that time. It's a pity that in this situation, the city lord can't surrender. ”

If you surrender before the battle, you only need to explain the situation to the alliance and then hand it over to the alliance to deal with. However, after the start of the war, especially when the letter for help has been issued, surrendering is a complete betrayal of the alliance, and this is the only thing that neither Fan Xiu, nor the high-level people of Xiuyuan City, nor even the earliest group of citizens of Xiuyuan City, can do.

What's more, whether it is from the initiation of the war or the intelligence collected afterwards, it shows that this war is not a question of whether to surrender or not to surrender in Xiuyuan City.

"Since you don't plan to surrender, is your 'slow' voice a death struggle?" Leng Xie surrounded his head, a flash of contempt flashed in his blue eyes, and the evil and cold voice said with a faint contempt.

Zhao Xian's face was angry, and he wanted to speak, but was stopped by "Fan Xiu".

"Fan Xiu" chuckled indifferently and said loudly: "Even if it's a dying struggle." After all, both the 'Burning Knife Soldier' and the 'Ice Swordsman' are elite characteristics, and it's normal for my little veteran of the Far City to not be able to beat them. ”

Hearing "Fan Xiu" point out the true backs of the two Qu troops lined up behind the other party, Zhao Xian and several pro-soldier captains were stunned for a moment, and immediately calmed down.

Although the combat power of everyone has been greatly improved under the high morale, and some soldiers who have just transformed from recruits to veterans have been doubled, no matter how much they are improved, they have not touched the line between elite soldiers and elites. This in itself proves that they are far from the elite.

This is also one of the reasons why "Xiuyuan City" decided to ambush in the first place.

Although the target of the ambush was the siege beast and the mountain destroyer, two forces that posed a devastating threat to the city's defense, if these two forces were divided into two forces, the focus would undoubtedly be the mountain destroyer.

The reason is not because of quantity. To tell the truth, when it comes to the destruction of the city defenses alone, the five-headed siege beast is far greater than the 100-person mountain destroyer. After all, the volume is there.

But when it comes to the degree of threat to the city's defense, the mountain destroyer is far greater than the siege beast. The reason is that the mountain destroyer is a special class.

In the Neno continent, it is necessary to look at the proportion of cultivators in this army and the proportion of cultivators in the unified profession of the army, but to distinguish whether a unit is elite or not, it is only necessary to look at whether the unit has characteristics.

There is an indicator that is close to truth in the comparison of the strength of the armies in the Nino continent, that is, in frontal combat, no non-elite or non-elite troops can definitely defeat an ordinary or even bottom-of-the-line elite army.

Note that it is any, including those units that are theoretically restrained.

Why did the ambush bring something like "blasting stone pellets" that was not very lethal directly?

In addition to the fact that the ambush location was a canyon terrain, it was also because Fan Xiu knew that it was difficult to threaten the mountain destroyers and giant beasts with the attack of the soldiers alone, even under absolutely favorable terrain conditions, and only the "Blasting Stone Pill" could threaten these two with natural power by disintegrating the mountain rocks. Of course, the loud explosion of the "Popping Stone Pill" will frighten the mild-tempered giant beast is also a reason.

Therefore, when they heard that the other party's troops were elite characteristics, everyone in Xiuyuan City completely calmed down.

Hearing "Fan Xiu" point out the troops under his command, Liu Yan and Leng Xie glanced at each other, and a trace of discoloration flashed.

"It is worthy of being from the 'Qincheng' pro-military camp, and I really have some knowledge." Liu Yan took a step forward and said proudly, "It's a pity that it's just a personal soldier." ”

Ning Yuan, who possessed "Fan Xiu", said secretly: "Sure enough." ”

In the memory information, there is only a simple information about the relationship between Fan Xiu and the Qin Alliance, and the city lord of the small city-state "Xiuyuan City" under the command of the "Qin Alliance", and there is no other more specific information, and there is not even any description of when "Xiuyuan City" joined the "Qin Alliance" for what reason. This brought a lot of trouble to Ning Yuan's calculation of why he chose "Xiuyuan City" as the starting point of the war.

Now Ning Yuan finally knew that Fan Xiu was originally from the pro-soldier camp in the main city of the "Qin Alliance", although the specific information was not yet known, maybe it was just an ordinary pro-soldier as the other party said.

No, it can't be an ordinary pro-soldier. Based on what Ning Yuan had learned after entering the Nino Continent and what he had learned from the memory of the boundary line, it was impossible for an ordinary soldier to have a "city knot". Even if they obtained the "City Heart" by virtue of their own chances, the "Qin Alliance" would never simply let their subordinates take the "City Heart" to build a city on their own, and also included it in the alliance's protection.

Moreover, ordinary pro-soldiers can never be the reason why the other party must target the small city-state of "Xiuyuan City".

Therefore, Fan Xiu's identity is by no means as simple as an ordinary pro-soldier.

But none of this matters for the time being. What matters is how to get through the current hurdle.

There is no doubt that the two armies rushed to kill, not to mention the manpower of "Fan Xiu" at the moment, even if all the Xiuyuan troops on the battlefield were gathered, they would not be the opponents of the two characteristic corps that suddenly appeared on the opposite side.

Surrender willingly? Then everything Ning Yuan did before would be meaningless, and once Fan Xiu was captured, that unhappy ending would definitely happen.

Therefore, even if Fan Xiu dies in battle, he must not be ambushed, this is the final bottom line.

If you want to pass this level, you can only start with the practitioner himself.

"Since everyone is a ground-level cultivator. Your purpose is to capture the lord of the city. Then we might as well fight the generals. ”

"Fan Xiu" said loudly to the two opposite.
