Chapter 6: The Battle in the Square

"The weapons of your Holy Blessing Army are really easy to use, how does it feel to use the weapons that belonged to you in the past to deal with your comrades?"

Doug discarded his bow and drew his sword, fending a powerful jump from Aiden's top down.

"It is your monsters who defeat our Holy Blessed Army, not you waste, even if you have the weapons of the Holy Blessed Army, you will not escape death today. In response to Doug's taunt, Aiden roared in response.

Swords clashed, sparks collided in the air, facing the calm Aiden, Doug's sword frame gradually scattered, and finally in a collision, Aiden successfully hit Doug's long sword, the long knife from top to bottom, obliquely drew an arc, and slashed to Doug's body.

However, this slash that could have broken through the golden stone did not cut into the gap between the armor, only accompanied by a huge friction sound, a few sparks burst out on Doug's armor, and the blade that should have penetrated the gap in the armor and cut into the body was blocked by an unknown force.

The tremendous force sent Doug flying through the armor, but the shock force from the armor made Aiden's mouth tingle.

Looking closely, the black armor on Doug's body was emitting a faint white light, enveloping him like a man in the armor of a protector.

"After your defeat, those of us who have achieved great achievements in battle have been fortunate enough to receive a set of equipment for the Holy Blessed Army, but the original white color is too eye-catching, so I painted him black. Doug picked up the long sword that had fallen to the side and looked at Aiden with a sinister smile, "You know the power of this armor best, so I really can't die today." ”

With a roar, the two fought again, and this time Doug was no longer defensive, no matter how many knives the opponent slashed at him, he could not break through the defense brought by the armor, and he was able to ignore the opponent's attack and attack the opponent's vital point at the moment of the opponent's attack.

Under this almost scoundrel style of play, Aiden had to pay a little price every time he tried to break through the opponent's defenses, and he knew that if he was reluctant to exchange injuries, then there was no chance of victory at all, which was what he knew best as the captain of the Holy Blessing Army.

In the face of a powerful shield, only a stronger attack can win.

And in this battle, the opponent's martial arts skills are not as good as his own, and his only hope of victory.

Swinging the long knife again and again and slashing at the armor, the blade of the sword slashed across Aiden's body again and again, and it didn't take long for Aiden's body to have many more wounds of different depths, and bright red blood flowed out of the wounds, although it was not a fatal injury, but it had greatly affected Aiden's movements.

The surrounding rebels had the upper hand by virtue of their numerical superiority and the engagement of the guards, but Aiden knew that the main purpose of this battle was to kill the leader of the Crow Army, Doug, that is, the man in front of him, and he had promised in front of His Highness, so he must not fail.

Taking a deep breath, he stretched his muscles again, put the knife at his side in both hands, and stared at Doug's movements with both eyes.

The armor of the Holy Blessed Army has been blessed by the church and has strong magical and physical resistance, so in the past thousand years, the Kingdom of Portia has relied on the Holy Blessed Army to show an invincible posture in the south of the Western Continent, until the Marston Empire brought that group of monsters south, and the Holy Blessed Army was destroyed.

It can be said that the strength of the Holy Blessed Army comes from their armor, and Aiden is also very aware of the weakness of these armors, as long as it is a man-made thing, there will always be some mistakes, most of the defensive power of this armor comes from the blessing imposed by the church, and it is only light armor, and now that the church is falling, the power of the armor itself will slowly weaken with the passage of time.

After three years, Aiden believed that the armor on Doug's body was running out of strength, and the question was which attack could penetrate and whether he could hold out until that time.

"May the God of Light protect me. Aiden prayed silently in his heart.

Seeing that Aiden was no longer attacking, Doug sneered, thinking to himself that you finally have no strength, why are you still staring at me, do you think this can scare me?

Realizing that the other party was the end of the crossbow, Doug stepped forward and stabbed with a sword.

Iron boots stepped across the yellow earth, and the sword stabbed at Aiden's faΓ§ade with the speed of running.

Gather your energy.

At this moment, in Aiden's eyes, the other party's movements slowed down, and the trajectory of the sword was clearly visible, and he could dodge as long as he turned his head slightly, so he also stepped forward, his head slightly sideways, and the hands holding the knife resolutely and quickly slashed from the bottom to the top, at an angle of forty-five degrees.

"Click. ”

It was the sound of armor and knives shattering, and Doug's flank was split, and the long knife in Aiden's hand was shattered piece by piece, leaving only one hilt.

With this swing, Aiden did break through the armor's defenses, but he also lost his weapon.

Before Doug could retract his sword with a sword, he felt a pain in his abdomen, and hurriedly stepped back, the long knife shattered after breaking through the armor's defenses, and failed to cause further damage, but the fragments of the knife and the fragments of the armor followed the force, and half of them pierced into Doug's abdomen.

Doug was angry and frightened at first, and then when he saw Aiden's state, it turned into a surprise, how could a person who had used up his last strength and didn't even have a weapon hurt himself.

"It's really the last, you ant!"

Doug shouted and walked towards Aiden, who had lost his strength, even though the wound in his abdomen was painful, but he knew that as long as he killed this man, the rebels would retreat out of fear, and then, he would wash this old street in blood, dig three feet into the ground and find the leader of the rebels, and completely drive this gang of rebels from the old street.

"Huh"

"Smack"

A bloodstained stone struck the wound on his flank with terrifying speed, the shattered crack fell again, and then a second and third stone followed, all hitting his flank with precision, the sharp pain and sudden shock made Doug lose the only chance to dodge.

Doug spat blood and fell to the ground, unable to figure out where the stones had come from.

Aiden watched Doug suddenly fall to the ground, vaguely saw the shadow of the flying stone flashing in front of him, hitting Doug with a snapping sound, he took a deep breath, picked up the long sword that the other party had dropped, and slowly walked towards Doug.

At this time, Doug was clutching his flank, his face was pale, and he couldn't understand where the attack was coming from.

"Those who you killed will be waiting for you in hell. Aiden said softly.

The sword stabbed into Doug's neck from Aiden's hand, ending the executioner's life.

"Doug is dead!" Aiden yelled.

The news of the Commander's death quickly spread through the Old Street, and when the Crows heard the news, they all fought their way out, and Aiden and his rebels all evacuated through the dark passage before the crazy soldiers returned to the square.

Zhou Lie took advantage of the chaos of the army to successfully break away from the old street, and after coming out of the old street, he didn't dare to stay in the surrounding area, and ran wildly for a long distance before holding on to the wall and stopping.

In order to help Aiden kill Doug, Zhou Lie's right hand was red and swollen at this time, and although he had picked a very smooth stone, he still scratched his hand.

"It seems that this kind of big killing weapon can't be used by hand, it's better to wrap it with something else sturdy, so that it doesn't hurt your hands. Zhou Lie began to plan a cross-era killing weapon in his mind at this time, and this idea coincided with a genius thousands of miles away.

After receiving the news of Doug's death, Augustus immediately sent people to calm the restless Crows, stopped the search operation, and sent officials to appease the civilians who lost their families to Doug's orders during the search.

I didn't expect it to end up being the worst.

"August!" With this tyrannical shout, the office door was violently pushed open, and a man with a bandage on his shoulder rushed in.

Seeing that the other party was menacing, the guards on both sides hurriedly stepped forward to support each other, but the wounded man only raised his arm and broke free from the restraints of the two.

"Why did you order the collection of troops, now is the opportunity to sweep away that group of scum, don't forget your duty, the moment you accept the appointment of the Prime Minister, you will completely say goodbye to your previous noble career, and your identity as a Portian!"

"Watch your words, Jik Leo, Lord Augustus is the archon of the city!"

The wounded man glared fiercely, and the subordinate next to him who scolded him swallowed what he was going to say next.

Augustus stared at the other party's eyes that wanted to kill, and said slowly, "Do you know how many people are there? Do you know why the rebels have always existed, because discrimination against us as the remnants of the kingdom has always existed, and with this kind of oppression and difference, there will be these people who resist!"

"That damn rat killed our chief. Kill our comrades, they make war heroes, they deserve a better result than this!" Jike slammed the table and roared, saliva splashing and almost spitting in Augustus' face.

"Do you think I don't know how many civilians you have killed, do you want me to point them out one by one, and then press them all to court, and finally have a public trial to see who is right?" Augustus said coldly.

"That's just a mob of criminals!"

"Then you should think about why they are willing to shield those criminals, instead of blindly destroying the credibility that I have built up so hard, did I have the order I gave at the beginning for you to torture those civilians, did you let you kill people? Look at these reports, deal with the resistance forces, once the civilians are implicated, the final reason is not with us, and now is no longer a time of war, do you understand? ”

"Now that Doug is dead, what strength do you crows have to roar in front of me, what did I tell you when I called you, and what did you do? ”

Augustus's fierce words distorted Jike's face, but he couldn't say a word, and he slapped the corner of the table angrily, smashed the corner of the table, and then slammed the door.

"Don't forget, even the church is exterminated by us!"

Listening to the words left by the other party, Augustus could only smile bitterly and shake his head.

If a nobleman from the empire were to be this consul, I am afraid that he would immediately order the old streets to be cleaned, but Augustus was a minor nobleman in the former kingdom of Portia, although he did not receive much favor, but after gaining power, he could not do such a thing by wielding a sword at his former compatriots.

He had already planned for the worst when he called the Crow Army, but he never expected that the actual situation was much more serious than he imagined, and these soldiers acted completely unreasonable, only knew how to fight and kill, and in the end they lost the battle.

Looking at the three subordinates in front of the table who wanted to lower their heads to the ground, he said tiredly, "Prepare the report, the letter of resignation, and the letter of apology, the report should be handed in as soon as possible, and the remaining two things may be used in the future. ”

"I will report this matter to the Prime Minister, and I will take it all by myself, and if that day comes, you will have to arrange all this. ”

The archon then waved his hand, signaling for them to step aside.

It's really hard to find something in a big city.
