53、The Battle of Harudel City (5)

"It's a signal arrow!" Yang Qianyu exclaimed after seeing the arrow that made a sharp whistling sound and flew into the sky with red smoke trails: "An ally has been ambushed!" ”

"It's terrible! Where is that direction? Li Xiang asked loudly.

"It's to the north of the city, and it's the Lower City Folks of Harudel City!" Fu Bin glanced at the direction of the signal, and after a quick check against the map, he confirmed.

"What are we going to do?" Yang Qianyu asked Li Xiang in a low voice.

Li Xiang hesitated for a moment - in fact, his idea was to save people, but the enemy situation there was unknown, and his group was far away. If you rush to the rescue, I don't say whether the rescue can be successful, but I'm afraid that I will put my group in it.

Just as Li Xiang hesitated, a sharp sound suddenly came from another direction, and a blue smoke trail rose with it.

"There are other friendly forces nearby to help!" Yang Qianyu could see the message of the signal at a glance. "Boss, what are we going to do?"

“…… Let's go for reinforcements too! Seeing this, Li Xiang weighed the pros and cons and decided to leave as well. Not only to go for reinforcements, but also to share the information with other raiding teams. What's more, the location of the signal is in the north of the city, which is exactly where the intelligence indicates that the upper demon may exist.

As soon as they decided to act, the traversers sprang into action. The previously captured dark troll wizard was no longer useful at the moment, and its last value was to provide Chen Zhanying with a small amount of monster killing experience after being chopped off with an axe by Chen Zhanying, and his headless body was thrown aside and no one paid attention to it.

……

Slums in the north and lower parts of the city.

A human army relied on a few houses to resist the attacks of nearly a hundred ghouls and seven or eight Mag demons, as well as other monsters such as ogres and trolls, and soldiers constantly fell under the attacks of the demons.

"Hold on! Reinforcements are coming soon! A soldier in light armor shouted loudly to boost morale, and the two-handed sword in his hand was wielding a tiger, and the red fighting spirit attached to the sword body fought back and forth in the corpse.

On a large banner planted in the center of the human procession, the image of a fist smashing a shield is embroidered.

The team that fell into the monster's ambush was none other than the Iron Fist Mercenary Regiment, one of the mercenary groups recruited by Kashya. The scale of the Iron Fist Mercenary Regiment is not large, there are only more than 100 people in the whole regiment, and the high-level combat strength of them is only nine low- and middle-level fighters, including the regiment commander. It can deal with ordinary monsters, but when it is attacked by no less than the number of monsters on its own, it becomes precarious.

At this time, the leader of the Iron Fist Mercenary Regiment, Mavis, was shocked and angry. While leading his party through the area, he encountered two lone Mag demons, who turned and ran away immediately after encountering his team. Mavis chased after him without much thought, but he was lured into the trap by the demons because of this. Now the whole regiment is in danger, although it sent a signal for help in time and received a reply quickly, but at this time, his team has lost one-third of its manpower due to the ambush, and I am afraid it will be difficult to support the moment when the support arrives.

Mavis began to regret that he was too eager for quick success, and he didn't expect to die here. It's not a pity that I died because of carelessness, but it's a pity for these brothers who have been fighting with me for many years. Some of them are alone, while others are dragging their families. Once you die on the battlefield today, how will you live in the future when those widows and widows at home are lonely and lose their source of income?

Just as Mavis was feeling desperate, a giant eagle suddenly appeared in the distance in the air, and a man stood on it, holding a war bow and shooting at the group of monsters below. Mavis was a little disappointed when he saw this, because the arrows fired by the archers in the team were the least lethal to the ghouls. After all, a long-range piercing bow and arrow is not very effective against the undead. And just as he was about to warn the visitors, something unexpected happened—the ghouls who were shot by the arrows were all hit in the head, and then they were surrounded by a black light in the howl, unable to move. After a few breaths, the black light converged, and the original ghoul turned into a skeleton-like monster wearing only black armor and holding a black sword and shield. Then the white light flashed in the eyes of those skeletons, and they turned to the ghouls next to them and slashed with their blades, actually assisting the trapped mercenary group members to start resisting.

Mavis was stunned in surprise, and at this time, he saw the archers on the giant eagle jump off the ground, shooting branches and arrows with the war bow in his hand, and the several ghouls who were hit also turned into those skeletons and joined the battle group, and the defensive pressure of the entire mercenary group was greatly relieved.

"Who is this lord?" Mavis hurriedly stepped forward and asked politely. Someone who came to show such one-handed strength is naturally not a small role.

"Xuanyuan Adventure Group, Zheng Kaidong." The person who came to spit out the words elegantly, it was the dark ranger Zheng Kaidong. "We saw the signal from your regiment and immediately came to our aid. Commander Mavis, please hold on, reinforcements from the brigade will arrive soon. ”

"Oh, good, good...... Thank you so much. Mavis hurriedly thanked him.

Zheng Kaidong raised his head and waved his hand at the giant eagle in the air, and said in a loud voice: "Sister Luo Xu, you go and pick up the other companions, I will stick here first!" ”

"Got it!" The bird of prey, Druid Roxu, who had transformed into a giant eagle, advised: "Then be careful yourself. ”

"Got it."

The giant eagle roared and turned away.

"That eagle, actually talking?" Mavis asked in disbelief, in his cognition, most of the demonic beasts who signed a contract with the human powerhouse to become the demon pet could not speak, unless it was the Warcraft King who was comparable to the Holy Rank Warlord who could simply communicate with the human language. "Could it be...... That's a king-level Warcraft? ”

"That's just an ordinary ability that my partner has." Zheng Kaidong explained lightly while shooting with his bow open.

"......" looked at the distant giant eagle and the increasing number of skeletons around him to assist in the defense, and Mavis was immediately completely convinced when he heard this, and at the same time secretly glad that he had not had any conflicts with the Xuanyuan Adventure Group when he was in the camp before - it was really not a wise thing to make enemies with people with these unprecedented skills.

A minute or two later, Mavis saw the second member of the Regulus Adventure Group who had come to their aid

The person who came was still an archer. However, compared to Zheng Kaidong, who had countless strange skeletons to help in the battle, this archer's attack was much more domineering.

There was no other reason, because the archer's first attack was not only his arrowwork, but also his powerful magic.

Violent lightning gathered in the hands of the comer, and then shot out with the wave of the arm. In an instant, all the ghouls swept by the thunder were wiped out of ashes, and with a single blow almost clearing a place where the demons were gathering in the encirclement.

"The eldest sister is mighty!" Zheng Kaidong couldn't help but joke when he saw someone coming. "It's still the sea witch's costume that is more beautiful, how can it be like me, the gray cloak is ugly and dead."

"Less poor." Sun Xiaoyu gently tapped Zheng Kaidong's forehead. Zheng Kaidong stuck out his tongue exaggeratedly, and the two women suddenly laughed, but the power of the attack in his hand did not diminish at all.

With Sun Xiaoyu joining the battle group, the defense line of the Iron Fist Mercenary Group has been stabilized. On the periphery, Zheng Kaidong's skeleton warriors acted as a barrier, and the large group of monsters gathered had Sun Xiaoyu use 'forked lightning' to sweep them away. For a moment, the battle between the trapped side and the besieging side was stalemate.

"Captain Mavis!" After laughing with Zheng Kaidong for a few words, Sun Xiaoyu turned his head to Ma Vis and said solemnly: "Order your members to retreat the defensive line, and the front will be resisted by Kaidong's dark entourage." ”

"Why?" Mavis asked, now that the defense line of the Iron Fist Mercenary Group has been stabilized with the assistance of Sun and Zheng, it is very likely that the hole will reappear once it retreats. Although the strength of the dark entourage transformed by Zheng Kaidong is not weak, the number is too small to be more than twenty, and it cannot completely block the attack of the monster.

"The rest of my buddies are going to cast a wide area of attack spell." Sun Xiaoyu said: "In order to avoid accidental injury, it is better to let your people retreat quickly." A minimum of 15 meters of safety distance is required. ”

"Huh?" Mavis was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then immediately jumped up like a cat with his tail stepped on and shouted: "All the members of the Iron Fist Mercenary Regiment obey the order - quickly shrink the defensive line!" Twenty meters back! Fast! ”
