Chapter 345: The Iron Throne
High in the sky, under the flow of clouds, countless banners are standing in a forest, clustered with the two-headed lion body of the king's flag, hunting in the wind, the startled dust and smoke extend from north to south, and the mighty army is rapidly passing through.
Sunlight occasionally poured through the dense gaps of the Sky Knights, shining on the unfurling banner of the King, and in the main formation under the King's flag, Bato Darkqi, riding on the back of a red long-haired beast, was issuing several orders to receive the battle situation ahead, or to inform the rear team to speed up the march and maintain a close connection with the Sky Knights.
The rest was just looking at the front for a long time.
As the third prince of this country, he gave his subjects, brothers, and the emperor the impression that he was a good martial artist and an obsessive weapon on the surface, but as a member of the royal family, everyone had the intention of sitting in that position, and if the prince was not missing, he would keep the status quo like this.
It's a pity that the prince's brother is missing, and most of them are dead, so as the only prince, then there is at least half a chance.
As long as the ghouls who invaded the upper country are eliminated, and then go to the Southern Continent to quell the rioting slaves, no one can compete for such a credit, no one can compete with it, as for the elder brother above, the second prince Ituni, is just an artist who is thin and weak, without a little force, maybe he has a little trick in his head, but so what?
As long as he takes the monstrous credit in front of him, the other party will only bow his noble head in front of him.
Ba Tuo looked at the end of the sky and the earth in front of him, his eyes were hot, and the waving cloak brushed the weapons hanging on both sides of the beast's back, on one side was his usual war knife, and on the other side, it was the strange weapon found in the mountain last time.
Although it was an iron rod, the extremely delicate carvings on it were something he had never seen before, and after being laboriously pulled out of the rock, it still needed to be held with both hands, which was extremely heavy.
This time, he brought it out, and he had the idea of using it to make meritorious contributions, and by the way, let the palace officials who recorded it with the army record his heroic side.
At this time, a cavalry came from the front: "Your Highness, General Black Scale is looking for you." β
"Let him come. β
Ba Tu retracted his thoughts, and his handsome face immediately smiled, and as the cavalry left, a man of unusual height, riding a black-horned long-haired beast with black armor, came over.
On the covered iron helmet, the helmet swayed, revealing only a pair of eyes, looking at Ba Tuo under the king's banner with solemnity and majesty, bowing slightly on the back of the beast, and his voice was deep: "Your Highness." β
"What is the matter with General Blackscale, who came to me?"
Ba Tuo did not put on the shelf of the prince, after all, this general who came over can be regarded as half of his teacher, and he is also a swordsman who is famous throughout the continent, and no one can resist a giant sword called "Black Dragon Tooth" in his hand.
"After the disappearance of the prince, and then the ghouls and the southern slaves rioted, I have been wondering if there is a connection. β
Black Scales spoke, and the two of them continued to move forward one after the other, maintaining the relationship between the monarch and the minister.
"So what do you have in mind?"
"I'm still thinking about it, but before the prince disappeared, I met him once, he was about to go to the Glashi Shrine, saying that the worshippers were looking for him......" Black Scale looked ahead, and Yu Guang ran into the third prince who glanced a little more to the side, and continued: "...... It's just that I didn't expect him to go to a foreign land to fight. β
"By the oracle?" Batto lowered his voice.
"There shouldn't be anything wrong with that. Black Scale hesitated for a moment, but still nodded: "Prince ..... has always believed in them, and only these worshippers have the ability to open the door to foreign lands, His Highness knows, Gash Heavenly God, loves a strange thing, those things seem to be only found in foreign lands." β
"To maintain the rule, my brother should do it, and if I were me, he would also go to a foreign land. β
After saying these words, Ba Tuo naturally understood some of the reasons for his brother's disappearance, but after thinking about it, he tilted his head on the beast's back and asked, "So, these ghouls, as well as the slave rebellion, will be related to the failure of the elder brother's expedition?"
Perhaps, soon, we will know the answer. β
"Yes, as long as you eliminate this group of ghouls and find out the main messenger behind the scenes, everything will be revealed, and no darkness can survive in the sun!"
Ba Tuo clenched his fists, and smiled heroically at the famous continent General Black Dragon Tooth behind him, just as he was leading as many as 100,000 Emperor Jing Rongwei Legion to accelerate southward, the first message from the defending army in front had arrived here through transmission.
At this time, the content is still the information before the enemy, and the above is just a brief paragraph, which is about the length of the defensive front, the number of troops assembled, the defensive devices, whether the magic cannon is in place and other related military affairs.
But it was a long time since this information came, and the second message came over, and the tone of the words transmitted this time was intermittent.
"...... ghouls are huge...... The armies have already entered combat readiness...... The middle front began to meet the enemy....... a lot......" In the sound of the magic transmission, the dense bombardment of the Black God Cannon could be faintly heard.
Black Scale narrowed his eyes: "It seems that the battle ahead will not be too smooth." β
"It's all a group of city troops who haven't fought for a long time, a group of useless waste, if the ghouls hadn't come too suddenly, they wouldn't have needed these people to go to the battlefield!"
Hearing Ba Tuo's words, Black Scale frowned: "Your Highness, they are also soldiers, our siblings. β
"Heh..... general don't care too much, even if the front fails, we will still win!"
Immediately.
Ba Tuo turned his head and issued a series of orders: "Order the rear foot soldiers to speed up their pace, assemble a formation thirty miles away, the Sky Knights will go to the battlefield on the southern front first, and block the speed of the ghouls from the sky, and the other ..... cavalry will follow me and General Black Scale, cut into the battlefield from the side, and cut off this group of millions of corpses, divide and tear them apart!"
The herald departed quickly, carrying the order to the communication mage, and the marching teams received the order, and when they received the order to receive the enemy, they began to operate in a tense and orderly manner.
More information frantically poured from the front line into the energy orb that recorded the magical message, and the mage's hands spun rapidly, and a sound was heard.
β...... The gods are above, there are too many of them!"
"They're coming, and Vulcan cannons and mages can't stop them at allβ"
"Molotia's military formation collapsed, the soldiers over there were fleeing, Molotia ran away, Your Highness, they collapsed, the front was torn apart, the ninth regiment received the enemy, and it was also collapsing....... ahhhh
Then, there was a burst of countless miserable screams mixed together, filling the area around the energy orb, pouring into the ears of Batu and Black Scale, as well as among the mages in charge of communication, one after another panicked reports, and the last terrible scream, almost exploded in their hearts.
According to the direction of the spread of ghouls, the troops of each city gathered were as many as eighty or ninety thousand, all equipped with magic cannons and magic reinforcements, according to such a formation, no one believed that they would be defeated and scattered in just half a day.
At the same time, it also shows that next, they will face the ghouls that are sweeping through the withering and decaying, and the power and speed of the other party to bulldoze everything.
"According to the previous deployment, it will be implemented immediately, and the rear team will have a change, and the defense will be established in situ and five deep zones will be arranged!"
As the screams in the orb passed, Ba Tuo repeated the order without stopping, and even Black Scale felt the tremendous oppression brought by the invisible enemy in front of him at this time.
"Let's fight....."
With a suppressed sigh, he slowly pulled out the dragon tooth greatsword behind him, and soon, the knight flying in the sky sounded the horn of war.
The sky looked down into the distance, it was dense, like the ant colony of the army covering the earth, and the black pressure was endless, sweeping towards this side.
The knight on the back of the eagle wing, looking at the scene below, breathed silently, his heart was beating wildly, as if he could hear the sound of blood flowing in the veins.
In a moment, among the knights wandering in the sky, someone suddenly pointed to the back of the Kuroshio that spread across the earth, "What is that.......?"
The eyes of thousands of people looked at each other.
Over there, the black tide spread, and in the open area that seemed to be deliberately bypassed, there were countless weapons surrounding one of the figures, sticking on the ground and shaking, and the air was full of buzzing...... sounds.
At a certain moment, Xia Yi raised his hand.
Countless weapons rose from the ground and rose into the sky, intertwined, emitting metal collisions and frictions, gradually forming the outline of a huge throne.
"As a person behind the scenes, it is necessary to raise the image ......."
Xia Yi said softly, and then, sitting up, the crow folded its wings, crowed, and landed on his shoulder.
