Chapter Eighty-Eight: Reinforcements Are About to Arrive on the Battlefield
It's just that after informing the Seven Killings, Li Xiang ran towards the exit of this sheep intestine path, this place is not very long, almost a few hundred meters, and it was because the contractor who didn't know who it was was arranged with the help of some special means, which caused Li Xiang and them to be unable to see the situation inside clearly.
But at this time, the contractor had been driven away, although Li Xiang actually wanted her to kill him, but this guy ran too fast, and Li Xiang didn't find out where the guy's body was.
Obviously, the head that Li Xiang cut off before should not be his body, which can be confirmed by the fact that when Li Xiang attacked again, the blade slashed on his body as if it was slashed into the air.
When he rushed halfway through, Li Xiang heard the shouting and killing sound from outside the exit, Li Xiang was happy to hear this voice, at least they didn't come very late, although Avalon's strength was not very strong, but the probability of his death was very low when the battle was not over.
Although the Spartans have the custom of protecting each other, most of the time it is the older Spartans who will take the initiative to protect the younger Spartans when they are not kings, knowing that only these young people are the future of their race, and if they want to continue to survive and survive strongly on this continent, the younger generation is naturally a very important force.
It is for this reason that Li Xiang has great hopes that Avalon is still alive, of course, in fact, the reason why Li Xiang judged is because Li Xiang's mission has not failed, if Avalon has died, this mission will fail nine times out of ten, after all, everyone is dead, and this task is basically impossible to complete.
After hearing the sound outside, Li Xiang sped up his hurry, although it was only a few hundred meters away, but he felt that the battle outside was nearing the end, although there were still many sounds of battle, but it could be judged from the sound that the number of people on one side should not be very large.
And these are not enough people who must not be the so-called Persians.
However, before Li Xiang reached the exit, he met a Persian, this Persian soldier held a Persian scimitar in his hand that was the same as an ordinary Persian soldier, but the scimitar in his hand seemed to be sharper and slender, and the strength of this soldier was also stronger.
Although he didn't use the detection skill, this soldier should have just finished from the battle, and in this case, the momentum on his body was still very strong, and Li Xiang could roughly judge the strength of this soldier through his own perception.
The attributes are stronger than those ordinary Persian soldiers, almost two or three more attributes, not very powerful, but the armor they wear is more sophisticated, maybe he also has some powerful combat skills or something.
Based on the above characteristics, their strength should be similar to those cavalry in the previous time, they all belong to the elite strength of the Persian team, and these Persian soldiers who seem to belong to melee combat are even more difficult in this narrow place.
The moment he saw Li Xiang, the Persian soldier who might have sneaked in to investigate or temporarily regained his strength launched an attack, waving his hand in a very skillful way
The scimitar attacked Li Xiang.
It can be seen that the sword skills of the Persian soldiers in front of him are not very low, and even reach the level of specialization, but unlike Li Xiang, who has his own combat routines, his specialization gives Li Xiang a very reluctant feeling, and his moves are very simple.
This should be relying on this move to barely reach the level of specialization, and it should be that their troops are trained in this kind of knife technique, and then used to fight with the team, the disadvantage of this method is that if the talent is not very good, it is difficult to exceed the upper limit of this set of knife techniques, but the advantage is that it is easy to form.
Compared with those knife techniques that take years or even more than ten years to study, the advantage of this kind of military knife technique is that it can be quickly trained and put into use to exert combat effectiveness.
It's a pity that if this Persian soldier was facing other people, maybe he would still have a certain degree of influence on those contractors, but in the face of Li Xiang's mastery of sword skills of more than twenty levels, his sword skills would have the feeling of playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong.
Li Xiang swung his knife and slashed over, and under the suppression of powerful attributes and skills, the head of the Persian soldier was cut off by Li Xiang just by looking at him.
Li Xiang continued to walk outside without even looking, and the Persian soldier looked as if he still needed to struggle, he stretched out his arm, as if he wanted to stop Li Xiang's advance, but his body began to change as he moved.
His head fell from top of his body, and his body slowly fell to the ground after losing his head.
His body was already exhausted, and if it weren't for his strong willpower, he might have been paralyzed and resting by this time, but his luck was not good, he encountered an enemy that he could not defeat at all.
While Li Xiang was still killing the Persian soldier, on the battlefield outside, Avalon was waving his shield to resist the enemy's attack.
His shield was tattered, covered with cracks, and covered with wounds on Avalon's body, and the spear in Avalon's hand had long since been thrown to a certain place, and the spear could not be used at all in such a dense situation.
The main thing is that Avalon's strength did not crush these Persians, and he only relied on his relatively strong skills to deal with these people.
It's just that the skills of these Persians are also very strong, and his body is already covered with wounds large and small, and this is with the help of other Spartan companions, but they also lost the lives of several of their companions.
The previous Spartan warriors of nearly 100 were now less than a quarter of them, and their remaining team of less than 30 formed a very reluctant battle formation to resist the repeated attacks from Persia.
Although the Persians did not know the strength of their battle formations at first and lost many soldiers, they gradually became passive after gradually understanding the characteristics of the Spartans.
The combat effectiveness of the Spartan warriors is much stronger than that of the Persians in front of them, although this is Xerxes's elite troops, but they are still weaker than the Spartans in terms of individual strength, but they also have a huge advantage, that is, they have a lot of people here, which is five of the Spartans
times more.
And there was a steady stream of troops coming to support, they had gathered a team of nearly five hundred people here at this time, and they still didn't know why these Spartans were here, if they knew that there was a sheep intestine path that could pass through the hot springs, maybe they wouldn't be facing such a small number of troops.
But even these Spartans had a hard time coping with them, and the way these Persians fought was so fierce that it took only a few minutes from the time Green found them to the time they attacked, and it was less than ten minutes by this time.
But in less than ten minutes, hundreds of coalition armies from other city-states were directly dispersed, and most of those volunteer coalition troops were not killed, they were only scattered by the Persian ranks, but after seeing the horror of the Persians, they completely gave up the idea of continuing to resist.
Many people took the opportunity to be scattered and slipped away directly, of course, there are still some people who are not afraid of death and are hot-blooded, but the strength of these people is generally very weak, and their sprint only surprised those Persian soldiers a little bit, and they were killed without accident under the strong gap in strength.
Even the valiant Spartans suffered heavy losses under their onslaught, and although the death of one Spartan soldier was often accompanied by the lives of two or three or more Persian soldiers, it was they who suffered when they had a steady stream of replenishment.
And the most frightening thing is that these Persian soldiers are not afraid to charge, unlike the cowering of those Persian soldiers in the main battlefield of Hot Springs, the Persian soldiers here are very brave, as if death is not a big deal for them.
They would even attack the Spartan warriors in a way that was wounded for wounded or killed, and in this case the number of Spartan warriors was drastically reduced, and at one point they were almost broken through the blockade by these crazy guys.
At this time, they only had less than thirty warriors left, in this case, they could only fight these people in front of them around the entrance of the trail, but this was not a way after all, Avalon even saw that a Persian soldier seemed to have broken through their blockade and entered the path.
But they didn't have time to bother with the guy who rushed through, and he didn't know how long he could hold out.
Ten minutes, perhaps? Maybe it was a minute or two, maybe even shorter, he didn't know how long he could hold out in the face of such a fierce attack, and a figure appeared in Avalon's mind at this time.
If only he had lasted longer, he might have been able to kill the Persian soldiers.
Avalon saw another Persian soldier dodge their attack and make his way to the entrance of the trail, but there was nothing they could do to stop it.
But just as the soldier was about to enter, a long knife appeared at the entrance and directly cut off the soldier's head.
Seeing this familiar long knife, seeing the familiar black and red blade on it, an excited look appeared on Avalon's face, if it weren't for the fact that he was still dealing with the attack, he might have screamed directly.
The man he had been waiting for finally came.
