Chapter 17: Merlin's Choice
"Then what should we do? Go or not, don't go, can't you do it, can't you be waiting here all the time? So why are we coming here?"
Old Bond sighed vigorously with some impatience, a pair of slightly cloudy eyes staring intently ahead.
There, a demon-like force was still standing silently.
Not far from them was the battlefield just now, even though there were now mountains of corpses there.
But these guys simply turned a deaf ear.
"These damn Demacians! They just killed so many of our compatriots, and now they can still stand there so calmly, do they really want to kill us all? They all deserve to go to hell!"
Merlin slapped the tree beside him hard, but did not answer the question that Old Bond had just asked.
To be precise, he couldn't answer at all.
He's not a Rada!
"I was wondering ,,,, him... They've been waiting for the rabbit all the time, is it because there's something they want that the Black Cavalry has in their hands? And maybe it's not very ,.... Well, sturdy, it should be the kind that can be easily destroyed?"
Just when everyone was sighing and hating in place, Beichuan's weak voice suddenly came out.
"Huh?"
Beichuan's guess made Merlin's eyes flash, and he once again turned his gaze in the direction of the canyon and pursed his lips.
As the so-called authorities, the bystanders are clear.
Beichuan's words just now didn't seem to be convincing, but instead woke up Merlin.
Indeed, in the current situation, it seems that this is the only possibility that makes sense.
Otherwise, which bastard can explain this damn situation, after all, the Dreadnought Vanguard wouldn't mind directly destroying one of the enemy's high-end forces for Demacia.
"Woo!"
Suddenly, a low horn sound came from the direction of the canyon, which instantly woke everyone hiding in the woods.
"Is this horn the Black Cavalry ready to break through! The annihilation of the 15th Division just now made Lord Rada unable to hold his breath!"
Merlin exclaimed, his face panicked, as if he was very puzzled by such a choice of the Black Cavalry.
Everyone stood beside Merlin very tacitly, and without exception, they all wanted to see how the two strong armies would collide next.
The exit from the canyon didn't seem very large, but at best it could fit about twenty people at a time.
However, it is such a small exit.
Suddenly, a torrent of pure black to the extreme suddenly began to pour out of it.
Knights in black armor and black horses raised their weapons in their hands and roared out of them, like a black spear trying to pierce the huge white shield in front of them.
In the face of such impact, no matter how powerful the Dreadnought Vanguard Legion was, they would never dare to continue to drag it out.
In the face of the onslaught of countless Black Cavalry, all the soldiers of the Dreadnought Vanguard Legion all made a tacit battle posture at that moment.
In this way, two armies representing different countries and beliefs soon collided.
They need to fight for their respective fates.
Unlike the one-sided battle before, the Black Cavalry soldiers who represent the top of Noxus deserve to be faced by the enemy.
Their strength was obviously firmly overshadowing the previous 15th Division.
Although there is still a gap between them and the enemy army, they seem to be convinced that this is not a problem at all under the accumulation of countless lives.
"It's over! It's over! Lord Rada is also going to come to his senses! Is he going to use the lives of all the black riders to resist? However, in this case, the 50,000 black cavalry may not be able to even leave a tenth of them! Damn! What is it that makes the always sophisticated Lord Rada go crazy!"
The fierce fighting on the battlefield was enough to ignite Merlin's fighting spirit, causing his eyes to suddenly turn red.
Of course, it wasn't just him, all the soldiers present also clenched their weapons in their hands, and their fingernails were tightly cut into their palms.
When Beichuan saw them like this, the fluctuations in his heart gradually spread.
I think back to the time when I played games on Earth before.
At all times, the protagonists are always heroes in different forms.
But who cares about these ordinary soldiers, maybe their lives in the game are just a piece of code.
There can never be any joys and sorrows of their own, and their value may be only a few dozen gold coins in the eyes of people.
Yet, today, in this land.
Beichuan suddenly saw all kinds of emotions revealed in the eyes of each of them, nothing more than joy, anger and sorrow.
Beichuan really felt that even if he was only the lowest soldier, he was a living person.
Like those heroes, they are all living individuals.
But now, they all have to sacrifice what little they have and what their heroes have in common for the sake of different kingdoms and beliefs.
Life!
In the blink of an eye, the battle between the Black Cavalry and the Dreadnought Vanguard had entered a white-hot phase, and the exit of the canyon was already filled with a large number of corpses in the blink of an eye.
While the good news is that the Dreadnought Vanguard has begun to suffer massive casualties, the bad news is not enough.
There were even more of them lying on the ground.
"Let's go! go and slaughter the dead in Demacia!"
Merlin said these words very abruptly.
"Merlin...."Old Bond looked at Merlin with a horrified face, his lips moved, but he didn't continue, how could he not understand what Merlin wanted to do.
It's nothing more than wanting to be like those dead fifteenth divisions and those black cavalry!
Glorious battle death!
Resting in this glorious land they identify with.
None of the soldiers had any objections.
Everyone checked the equipment on their bodies in an instant very tacitly, and they stood up in a team very consciously, and there was no need to say anything more about pre-war mobilization.
That's what they think is the best place to be.
Without saying a word, the soldiers followed in Merlin's footsteps one after another, embarking on a most unwise path.
"Uncle Bond, thank you for taking care of you, the meals you cook are really delicious. Merlin didn't turn his head, but left a faint word.
"If you like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow. Old Bond's eyes were red, and he wanted to reach out and grab the young kids
However, he seemed unable to do so.
"Next time. Merlin finally turned around one last time and smiled at Old Bond.
Completely gone.
"Merlin!"
Old Bond's tears finally flowed.
"Uncle Bond, aren't they going to die? Let's pull them back!"
The backs of all the soldiers had gradually drifted away, and Beichuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, and stomped his feet vigorously, with a worried face.
Old Bond was speechless.
"Uncle Bond, what do you think we should do?
Hart was also a little helpless at this time.
Just now, the seven of them followed Old Bond and Beichuan to find Merlin, they were purely just for a gamble, in their words, they had nothing to worry about anyway, and they had suffered enough in this world.
Originally, I wanted to come over and help Merlin and them, maybe I was lucky and didn't need them to work hard to get a military merit or something.
At that time, it was naturally best to join the army, even if you couldn't join and get rid of your slave status, it would be a big advantage.
But what about now? Their calculations have been completely destroyed.
This Merlin gang is clearly going to die, do they still want to follow and spill their blood?
Although military merit is naturally good, no matter how you look at it, life should be more important.
Even if the empire can give some compensation, but he has no children, no daughters, no father and no mother, and that pension may eventually go into the money bag of an official.
Fool's talent!
