Chapter 14: The Eagle Man Appears

87_87410 Out of the splendid mountain forest, we arrived at the Red Clay Highlands, and followed the main road to Stan City, the destination of Twilight and others, and then to Iroburg.

"Shall we go straight to Iroburg now?" Fred asked, taking off his helmet.

Twilight shook her head, "No, let's get some news from Stan City first."

"Good!" At that moment, the five of them began to move slowly along the road.

"Why is there no one in this town?" On the way, the five of them passed by a small town, but by this time there was no one in the town.

Arras: "I guess I'm hiding."

"Let's go, move on." The five of them accelerated forward, and in half a day, they rushed to Stan City, the largest city in the Red Clay Heights.

"Soldier, I want to ask how the orcs are doing now?" Arriving at the gates of Stan, Twilight asks a soldier standing guard.

Looking at Twilight, who was dressed in the Hammer of Justice robe, the soldier standing guard hurriedly saluted before saying, "My lord, the orcs have now entered the Red Soil Heights, but they are now being blocked by Prince Dreyus and General Kunovello in the Northland stronghold in front of Iroburg."

"How's the battle going, you know?" Twilight asks.

"I don't know, but I've heard that orcs have slipped into the red clay highlands, and a town has been attacked ahead." The soldier said truthfully.

Hearing the soldier's words, Twilight raised an eyebrow, "Oh! Thank you. ”

With that, Twilight pats the soldier on the shoulder, and then walks in the direction of the four of them.

"What's the matter?" Watching Twilight walk back, Odorson asked.

"The orc army should be blocked in the Northlands, but it seems that a small group of orcs has slipped into the Red Soil Highlands." Twilight frowned, thinking about the human-beast war.

Although Twilight knows the direction of the two wars between humans and orcs, he doesn't know the specific details, and he can only speculate about what happened next through guò information.

"Shall we leave for the Northland stronghold now?" Hassett Nuga asked.

"There's no hurry, I'm wondering what a small group of orcs can do if they sneak into the Red Soil Highlands." Twilight shakes her head.

"What can they do when they sneak behind us, it's nothing more than sabotage!" Audenson said as a matter of course.

"Wait, rear? That's right, the rear, they must have come to the rear for a purpose, they must have come to sabotage supplies. Twilight's eyes lit up, and she snapped up, but shook her head for a moment.

"No, if it's to destroy the supply point, then now that they have been exposed, the military top brass must be able to think of this, they don't have a chance at all."

Looking at Twilight talking to herself, Fred slapped him and said, "Don't be foolish here, I don't think it's stupid for us to stand here all the time."

Twilight looked at the people around her, looked at Fred helplessly, and muttered, "Just your head, do you know how stupid?"

"I'm also weird, just for you burping and farting and grinding your teeth, and you know it's a shame." Odorson also stepped forward to make up for it.

Arras smiled lightly: "Hehe!"

"Hey, don't take you so hurtful." Looking at the few people who led the horses away, Fred said angrily.

At this time, Hassett Nuga patted Fred forward: "I don't understand why such a good girl as Rena would take a fancy to you." This is the real divine sword.

On the way, Twilight rode slowly and leisurely thinking about the orcs who slipped into the red clay highlands, and he felt that his credit and experience fell on these orcs.

"These orcs must have their purpose." Twilight affirms that his confidence comes from the current Orc Chieftain, the most prominent Orc Great Chief since the First Human-Beast War, Gamosh Thunder Roar.

Gamosh Thunder Roar was one of the few resourceful figures of the several High Chieftains, otherwise he would not have been able to unite the entire orc race, let alone cross the Sunset Mountains and conquer all of Kurtra.

"I think these orcs just broke in by mistake, you say they have a purpose, what do you think they can do?" Oldoson Road.

Twilight didn't bother with O'Doson, but took out the map from his horse and studied it, if these orcs couldn't attack Stan City, and Iroburg couldn't defeat it, then their target must be the four large towns around Stan City, but did it make sense to attack these four towns? This is just to give more casualties to the civilians and more distractions to the military.

"Let's go to these four towns first, and I always feel that something is wrong." Twilight says, pointing to the location on the map.

"Are you too suspicious?" Odoson muttered, but the five of them followed the map and started walking towards the four towns around Stan City.

==

The five of them took the lead to the nearest town of Butch in Rystan, and walked around the neighborhood and found nothing unusual, and then the five of them walked a little farther away, closer to the town of Dari in the Kurtra Grand Canyon, and this time they still found nothing unusual, and just as Oddoson complained that it was useless, and Twilight was a little shaken by his guess, several cries for help suddenly came from a distance.

"Help, help, knight, ah." Following the cries for help, Twilight and the others see several humans running towards them, chasing three humanoid monsters with a pair of wings flying in mid-air.

"Damn, it's the Harpy." With a loud shout, Fred slammed his horse's belly and rushed first, followed by the others.

A hundred meters away roared, but at the time when the five people rushed over, another person who was behind was thrown to the ground by the eagle man who caught up, and only a few screams were heard, and the person who fell to the ground lost his breath.

"Ah, death!" Fred, who rushed to the front, swung the war hammer in his hand and smashed it into a sky-blue harpy at the front.

"Gah!" With a chirp, the azure harpy flew up suddenly, narrowly dodging Fred's blow, leaving only a few feathers behind.

But that's not the end of the story, as the blue Harpy is about to take off, Twilight behind Fred leaps up decisively with one hand on the horse's back during a high-speed ride, and the Guardian of Darius slashes at the Azure Harpy.

With a scream, the harpy fell to the ground, and by this time Odoson and Hassett Nuga had arrived, and the injured harpy died in an instant.

There is another scream, and Twilight sees that a harpy has been hit by Arras's icy arrow and falls to the ground.

Seeing that the two companions fell in front of him in an instant, the remaining red Harpy quickly flipped its wings and wanted to fly high, when Fred, who rushed to the front, raised his hand and struck the Harpy with a holy light judgment, knocking the Harpy's body crooked and almost falling.

"Drink!" Seeing that Fred didn't wait to hit the target, Twilight picked up the round shield in her hand and threw it out.

Just as the red harpy was recovering from Fred's fright and trying to fly higher, Twilight's shield was already in front of the red harpy with a whistling sound.

"duang", I saw that the red didn't even scream, and fell down with a large handful of feathers.

Without a word, Fred stepped forward and smashed the falling Harpy to death with a hammer.

After dealing with the three harpies, the five hurriedly walked towards the injured on the ground, but after only checking the next few people, they found that the people on the ground were dead.

"What's going on? How did you meet the Harpies. Twilight asks as she looks at a few people who haven't run far away, walks over and takes off their helmets.

"Lord Knight, save our village, a group of harpies are attacking our village." One of the middle-aged men cried eagerly.

"You tell me, what is the approximate number of harpys?" Twilight asks.

"About one or two hundred, a lot of them anyway, they all cover the sky." Middle-aged people are not very sure of the Tao.

Hearing the number of Harpies, Fred's angry voice came from behind Twilight, "Damn, how can there be Harpies here, you show us the direction, let's go now."

"You can see it over the hill, and I'll take you there." The middle-aged man pointed to a hill not far away.

"No need, uncle, you have to go to a nearby town to find reinforcements now, just the five of us can go over." As she spoke, Twilight put on her helmet and walked to the horses not far away.

The five of them rode up the hill not far away, and at a glance they saw a village, and they rushed to the village without hesitation.

When the Twilight Five arrive at the village, they don't see the herds of Hippogriffs, only about twenty or thirty Hippogriffs wandering around the village to kill any living creatures they can see.

"Kill!" Looking at the corpses and wounded all over the ground, Hassett Nuga only said 'kill' and rushed directly to the nearest harpy.

When Twilight and the others killed the two harpies who couldn't react, the people wandering around the village also spotted the five people who had suddenly broken in, and they all screamed and pounced.

"Arras!" Twilight screams at the Harpys as they pounce on them.

"Good!" Hearing Twilight's call, Arras answered, only to see a ring of ice erupt from under Anaras, and all the harpies who pounced down were instantly frozen and fell to the ground, which was the mage's skill 'Frozen Nova'.

Seeing that all the harpies are frozen, Twilight rushes towards the harpy crowd with her sword and shield and the three of Hasset.

Wearing full-body protective armor, Twilight and the others are not afraid of the harpy's claw blows and slaps at all, only to see Twilight cut off the head of a harpy with a sword, and smash a harpie with a shield, followed by a foot that will step the harpy's neck or head, while continuing to look for the next target in his hands.

Despite this, Twilight is still not as fast as Hassett Nuga with a two-handed hammer and Odoson with a two-handed greatsword.

At this time, Twilight saw that a little farther away, the magic was brewing between the talons of the two flying Harpies, and she didn't think that Twilight's shield was thrown out hard, and one of the Harpies was smashed accurately, and Twilight quickly approached the other Harpie, but it was too late, the spell of the other Harpy had been completed, and a lightning arrow quickly shot at Twilight.

Twilight lifts the Darrys Protector in her hand in front of the lightning arrow, and suddenly a strong electric current is transmitted through Twilight's broadsword, causing Twilight to swing, but because of the weakening of the armor on her body, the electricity does not cause much damage to Twilight, and Twilight still keeps running towards the Harpy who casts the spell.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen harpies died at the hands of the Twilight Five, seeing the ferocity of the Twilight Five, the remaining frozen Harpies were busy flapping their wings and about to fly, but at this time, the cold ice arrows of Arras, Hassett and the other three Holy Light strikes also arrived, and Twilight also solved the two ranged spellcasters.

When the last Harpy died at the hands of Arras's icy arrows, all five took off their helmets and let out a sigh, each having fought other battles before, but this was the first time they had fought Harpy.

"Hurry up and save people!" Seeing that the harpies around him were all dead, Hassett Nu hurriedly said to the four of them. At that moment, the five began to treat the injured in the village
