Chapter 34: The Siege
Under the light of the fire raised by the soldiers at the scene, a huge shadow rose on the edge of the square, and everyone who noticed it was stunned, except for the reincarnation who had been expected at the scene.
"What kind of monster is this? Demons? β
After ringing the alarm, the patrol leader who arrived in a hurry carried a candle and said tremblingly, and behind him were the patrol members of the team and a dozen or so people who came to help with enthusiasm and regarded death as home.
The ugly monster rose from the intruder's steely encirclement, and although its lower body was hidden by the heavy cavalry, its upper half was a person's height above the encirclement, so that everyone on the scene could clearly see its disgusting face.
"Just now? Is this what the Earl has changed? β
The patrol leader's men asked in alarm, but no one dared to answer.
The heavy cavalry regiment facing the earl showed a frightened look one after another, the war horses under the crotch were restless and neighing, and the monsters in the encirclement that did not see the human form continued to expand, and the heavy cavalry retreated vigilantly while calming the war horses, causing a gap in the encirclement towards Monte to be exposed.
Monte calmly looked directly into the earl's green eyes, and spoke as if he had expected it.
"Demon, what a disgusting countenance!"
At this time, the count undoubtedly turned into a monster or a demon, the huge body was nearly four meters high, and the whole seemed to be a slug with more tentacles on its head, and the huge head became huge and bloated due to the expansion of the body, but the count's appearance was still clearly distinguished.
There is no neck under the skull, the most obvious is the huge mouthparts that grow out of the hideous, the mouth is neatly distributed with humanoid teeth, each the size of a fist, and there are three pairs of arms on the body that have become fleshy strips and have no joints, the most obvious upper arm is at least the size of a strong young man's body, and the lower two arms are as thick as the thighs of ordinary people, the overall appearance is extremely terrifying, and it can even be said that it is a symbol of horror in human fantasy.
The Earl's huge body exuded a terrifying aura that made people tremble.
The men behind the patrol leader stammered to him, "Stowe... Long.., we're still... Let's go! It's really... Monsters."
Dressed in the plain clothes of this era, Stowe was speechless, his tense body could not move, and his eyes stared in fear at the count's face at the head of the monster.
The horses of the heavy cavalry regiment were like predators at the top of the food chain, restless, moving from side to side, as if they had reached a critical point of fear, and if it had not been for the heavy cavalry's efforts to appease them, they would have fled in accordance with animal instinct.
"I told you were all going to die!"
The Count looked at the Monte and the others, with the murderous intent in his eyes, and did not pay any attention to the heavy cavalry around him.
"Don't be too rampant, demon, we're here to destroy you!"
Monte carried the great sword on his back and verbally confronted each other, but the attitude of waiting for the battle had proved that everyone was not easy.
"Whoever dares to hurt my daughter will die!"
As the Count spoke, a thick mist rose from the center of the Count and spread to the entire square at an extremely rapid speed, so that the light of the torches was constantly blocked, and the darkness gradually enveloped the square.
Song Jing's face immediately changed, and he yelled at the heavy cavalry regiment that was already half shrouded in mist:
"Stand back! Disperse! β
But before the heavy cavalry could obey the order, two figures were thrown out of the fog and fell from the air in front of Monte with a scream, red blood spilling through the cracks in the armor.
The neighing of the war horse in the fog was great, and the two pairs of horse feet were suddenly revealed in the air at the edge of the fog, only to see the heavy war horse rotate out of thin air, violently ramming into a circle of heavy cavalry, and the heavy cavalry with sunken armor were knocked out one after another, and at the same time, the encirclement continued to send out human screams.
"Ahh
"Monster!"
"Run! Run! β
"Action!" , Song Jing looked at the spreading fog and shouted eagerly, his heart was ruthless, he raised his right hand, and snapped his fingers hard, and slight sparks and lightning splashed, and the alchemy of flames was launched.
Bang β
A raging flame instantly exploded in the place where the Count was originally located, and the screams that were affected also sounded, and the flames instantly removed a large area of unknown and unsightly mist, only to see the Count in the heavy cavalry regiment grasping two bloody and torn war horses and constantly shaking, under the face of the hideous mouth biting to reveal a half-red body, and he was only slightly burned in this attack, the other mouth on the face of the apostle's incarnate body kept shouting, "Die!" Die! β
"Demons!"
Monte immediately shouted angrily, relying on the firelight at this time, he suddenly rushed towards the encirclement of the tragic battle, and it was Huang Shurong, who was one position faster than him, who also galloped away, and the two instantly crossed a hundred meters to the outside of the encirclement.
"Die!"
The Count let out a loud shout and threw the horses in the hands of the two giants at the two of them.
The blood-drenched war horse arrived in front of the two in an instant, and Huang Shurong was unexpectedly hit by the huge war horse, and his body was covered under the horse's corpse.
"Hahaha!"
Seeing this, the Earl maliciously opened his giant mouthparts and laughed, and the flames were fierce.
And Monte secretly stored his strength with both hands, and slashed down at the flying horse, and the great sword sank into the body of the volleyed horse, and slashed in two, and the steaming majestic blood and internal organs splattered in all directions, drenching Monte with blood red.
Seeing this, Song Jing immediately snapped his fingers, launched the alchemy of flames, and shared the pressure for Monte, and a violent explosion suddenly appeared in front of the earl's eyes, and the huge sound made the surrounding people ringing in their ears, and the smoke and dust filled the body, enveloping half of the earl's apostolic body.
"I want you to dieββ!"
The Count screamed and burst out of the mist, the apostolic face festering, his right eye blinded, and his left eye, glowing with a grim green glow, stared straight at Monte, and his huge body charged at him quickly.
"Hah!"
Monte dragged his sword and shouted loudly, slashing towards the Count.
When the two met, the great sword swung a fan-shaped iron curtain and cut off the Count's huge right limb in one fell swoop.
But at the same time, Monte's pupils shrank, and the count in front of him kept screaming frantically regardless of his injuries, and rushed towards him without stopping.
With his excellent reaction speed, Monte immediately let go of his greatsword and rolled towards the open ground on the left at the last moment, while picking up the knight's spears scattered around with his right hand.
Before Monte could get up, a large shadow suddenly hit Monte's eyes.
The Count's massive tail flicked and sent Monte flying, a mouthful of blood gushing out of Monte's mouth and tumbling into the corpse of the heavy cavalry.
"Hahahaha, humans are human beings, it's really weak!"
The Count laughed wildly, and took his severed right hand and pointed it at the wound, and the flesh trembled, and the wound was still intact, and the ulcers on his face were constantly healing.
"There's one left!"
His fat left eye narrowed, and he said to Song Jing with a solemn face in the distance:
"Silly? Your teammates are dead! β
"I'll come and kill you right now"
He smiled sinisterly:
"You're a magician! But even so, the outcome will not change, because you have hurt my beloved daughter, and I will make you die a terrible death! β
"Really?"
Song Jing glanced at the square, the fog dissipated because of the practice just now, Monte's bloody body was lying in a pool of blood, and although the remaining heavy cavalry on the field did not continue to come over to encircle and suppress the earl, they did not escape, but raised their knights' guns to the side.
Song Jing retracted his gaze and calmly looked at the Earl who was crawling over, and a calm voice sounded in the team channel:
"Kill ββ!"
......
seconds ago.
"Are you sure?"
Yuyama Ken held Barrett on the buttress on his daughter's wall, looked at the earl who was slowly approaching Song Jing from the scope, and asked nervously in the team channel.
Instantly, he got the answer, and a cold light lit up in the scope, and the sharp feeling was like a sharp arrow piercing his chest, making his hair stand on end.
Although the earl crawled slowly in the direction of Song Jing, he had already raised the vigilance in his heart to the highest, not only the endless spells of the legendary magician, but also Song Jing's unusually calm posture.
He had already used the two pairs of small hands that he had already covered with his huge fleshy arms to secretly pick up the knight's spear on the ground, preparing to use his strange power to throw weapons.
Suddenly, a cold light lit up, in Song Jing's opinion, it was like passing through a fleeting light curtain from under the count's face, and from the patrol leader Stowe, who was on the side, it was an extremely thin light that crossed the earl's neck.
"Uh~" The earl opened his mouth wide, just now he felt that something was wrong, and the recovery ability of his body was ready to take effect.
The head was immediately kicked violently, the scene in front of him was instantly reversed, the head flew out of the monster-like body, and rolled in front of Song Jing, and the heroic Huang Shurong in the air was unexpectedly revealed, and then landed firmly on the bloodstained ground in front of him.
Pullingββ
The severed monster Roshan toppled down, and the waves of blood churned.
"My teammates... Is it really dead? Song Jing looked down at the earl's chest-sized head on the ground and said quietly.
"I.."
The earl seemed to be about to beg for mercy, but his head suddenly jumped out of thin air, pounced on Song Jing's chest, tentacles stretched out from the bloody wound on his neck, and waved wildly in the air, he said viciously:
"Die, as long as I parasitize you, I will live in this world instead of you!"
As if he had expected it, Song Jing kicked his feet back and at the same time reached out to the severed head that pounced, posted a talisman full of symbols, and said softly:
"Exorcism!"
As soon as the earl's head touched the talisman, dense and tiny lightning flashed from the talisman to cover his entire skull, scorched scars continued to appear, and the severed head fell to the ground in front of Song Jing, his muscles twitched constantly, blood splattered, tentacles flicked wildly, and he shouted in pain: "Ahhhh β
The wonderful smell of flesh reached Song Jing's nose, which was dodging on the side, letting him know that the earl's qi was exhausted, and of course a low-level exorcism talisman could not kill the earl, but it could also limit a terrifying severed head.
"Well~"
Monte shook his head, got up from the pile of corpses, saw the huge body that lacked a head and was limp in the square, shook his head and said to his teammates in the team channel: "I didn't expect his strength to be really good!" Luckily, I was able to block it with a knight's gun in time."
"Is it over? I haven't fired a single shot. β
Yuyama Ken, who was aiming at the Earl's severed head, said with a smile.
Monte smelled the blood on his body, and subtracted a piece of flesh foam from the gap in the chest of his clothes for some reason, and said angrily.
"Then you can take my place next time!"
"Forget it, my current Static Blood Outfit has not been fully developed, and it is not as high as your physical defense", You Shan Jian hurriedly excused himself.
At this time, Alexander, who had been observing the situation next to him, found that there was a special situation in the southern city wall, and the torches were lit one by one like fluorescent insects in the field, and it turned out that the defenders of the city actually sent soldiers to the square, divided into two rows and marched in the alleys, and most of the eyes were disciplined pikemen arrays, but what was alarming was that this army was mixed with well-equipped bow and crossbow troops, so he hurriedly reminded in the channel.
"There are nearly 300 troops in the south rushing towards the square, mixed with bow and crossbow troops, the streets are very narrow, the cavalry should have no room to play, be careful!"
Song Jing frowned, looked at the city wall in the distance, and asked.
"How's the battle going on the walls? Why are there still people coming to help? β
The troops brought by the reincarnation side had already advanced to the city walls on both sides with the north wall as the center, and at the beginning they unexpectedly played a good record, starting from the edge of the north city wall and covering corpses all the way, until they captured two-thirds of the east and west city walls. However, when the defending troops reacted, the situation began to go wrong, and they slowed down the pace of the invaders based on their excellent equipment and favorable terrain, and the battle situation was scorched.
Alexander had expected to report.
"Half of the city walls have been occupied, but the battlefield is temporarily deadlocked, and it seems that their generals want to support the earl first, join up with the corps in the city, and gather the forces of the territory to resolve the riot."
At the same time, Huang Shurong, who had been listening to the conversation on the channel and was cleanly dressed, walked next to Song Jing, looked at the earl with a weak breath and said.
"Do you want me to break the stalemate on the wall?"
"No, use the healing charm to save the Count's life first, you can just keep him"
Song Jing said expressionlessly, not caring whether the earl who was struggling to breathe was in pain, and looked up to notice the brighter and brighter firelight in the distant street, "It's over, as long as our heavy cavalry regiment is organized here, there is nothing to worry about." The matter on the city wall, you can solve it! β
Yuyama shrugged his shoulders, let go of Barrett, and responded in the channel with the reinforcement of the situation of scanning the city wall, "Okay! It's a reward! Kindness? β
At this time, Delicia next to her woke up and found herself lying on the cold masonry floor with her whole body tied, and immediately realized that this was not her room, and her delicate little face showed a frightened look, and she looked at Yushan Ken and Alexander who looked at each other pitifully.
Monte stepped across the pool of blood in the square, walked to the rather clean area next to it, glanced at the hesitant heavy cavalry on the edge, and shouted, "Heavy cavalry regiment, line up!" Don't keep me waiting too long! β
Phew-
A dark arrow struck Monte's back.
"Smack-"
Monte dodged with agility as if he had eyes on his back, while his right hand caught the arrow steadily, and he looked gloomily in the direction of the sneak attack.
The movement of panicked retreat sounded, Monte's eyes flashed, and his right hand threw hard, and the sharp arrow disappeared into the darkness in an instant, and then a cry of pain was heard.
Song Jing also felt a burst of trouble, it was really a little ghost, and he estimated the place where the sound came out just now, and snapped his fingers with his right hand in that direction, and the Flame Cultivation Technique was launched.
Bang β
The scorching flames exploded instantly, shining a frightened look on the faces of the soldiers in the three cities, one of them still had the arrow of the sneak attack just now stuck in his thigh, and the three of them were just about to escape, but the fierce orange-red tongue of fire instantly and ruthlessly engulfed the three of them, and in an instant, the torches of the three humanoids were raised, and the screams came out, they threw down their weapons in a panic, took off their helmets and twisted their bodies wildly, hoping to extinguish the entangled flames, but to no avail.
In the context of this torch, Song Jing nodded to Monte, and Monte angrily urged the heavy cavalry regiment with a stiff body that remembered bad memories, "Hurry up!" The enemy is coming."
