Chapter 348: The mission was successfully completed
Marcus quickened his whip, and behind him came the sound of the girl's loud magic spell. The mage's movement speed can't keep up with the warhorse, so as long as he can get out of the range of the magic attack, he succeeds.
"It's up to you two!"
The young magician said to the young boy and girl beside him. The girl was chanting a magic spell and ignored him. The boy nodded to him, and the next second the figure disappeared on the spot.
"Whew!"
When the war horse was still fifty paces away from the canyon, Marcus suddenly felt a red light in front of him, and a wall of fire appeared out of thin air at the mouth of the canyon, blocking the way ahead.
"Wow!"
Marcus reined in the horse in front of the wall of fire, he measured the height of the wall of fire, gritted his teeth and stood on the horse's back, and at the same time his body rose with the yellow fighting spirit that only a high-level swordsman possessed.
"Captain, what are you going to do?"
The captain of the pro-soldier who followed him asked with some surprise when he saw this.
"Don't you see, they are here for the Ogu family, they want to take me hostage, and I must not let them succeed. Brothers, I'm sorry, you help me hold back the enemy, and I want to report to the lord first. β
As he spoke, Marcus kicked his horse with his knees, and the horse let out a painful roar, and he took off to the top of the wall of fire, ready to abandon his own soldiers and run alone.
The soldiers watched with desperate eyes as Marcus's body leaped over the wall of fire. However, as soon as Marcus's figure disappeared, there was a loud shout and a loud bang from the other side of the wall of fire, and a huge shockwave caused the entire wall of fire to flicker. followed Marcus's figure and reappeared, but this time it was not forward, but flew back backwards, and behind Marcus's figure was closely followed by a person, it was the young man who was going to wear a long sword before, I don't know when he had waited on the opposite side of the wall of fire one step in advance, not only a sword slashed back Marcus who wanted to escape, but also the body was in hot pursuit, at the moment Marcus landed, he had felt in front of him again, holding a sword in both hands, carrying a gold and a silver two splendor to Marcus in a state of anger to slash down on the headγ
"Dangdang!"
Three swords in a row, slashed in the same position, Marcus took a step back with each sword blocked, fortunately he was also holding a sword mixed with pure gold, otherwise it would have been split in two. Even so, after receiving three attacks in a row that were as heavy as a mountain from his opponent, he felt his arms tingle and his legs went limp.
"Good!"
Seeing Marcus connect his three swords, the young man was not only not surprised, but laughed:
"If you can take me another sword, I'll let you go. β
The yellow fighting qi on the young man's body rose into the sky like a flamed oil that had been poured on it.
"By you!?"
Marcus's momentum on the surface did not diminish at all, and the long sword in his hand shook, and the fighting spirit on the sword body was like a burning torch blocking the opponent's unstoppable sword.
"Bang!"
There was an extremely dull loud noise, and an invisible wave of qi was set off on the ground, and the two people who were fighting were the center, and swept away wildly towards the surroundings, flying sand and stones, and the momentum was very amazing.
Wait until the dust clears, revealing the two men who are fighting within.
Marcus bent slightly on one knee and held the hilt of his sword in both hands, struggling to hold the boy's sword above his head.
"How?"
The boy looked down at Marcus condescendingly.
"I still caught it, you mean what you say!"
Marcus said with grinned teeth.
"Of course!"
A strange smile appeared on the corner of the boy's mouth.
"But my sword is not over yet. β
Before the words fell, the thumb of the young man holding the hilt of the sword moved slightly, and then the yellow fighting qi on the sword dimmed for a moment, and a white glow of ice crystals quickly spread over.
"Not good!"
Marcus screamed in his heart.
"Crackle!"
There was a sound of lightning in the sky, followed by a thick arc of lightning falling from the sky and slashing above Marcus's head.
"Ahh
Marcus screamed in pain, although he had a fighting spirit to protect his body, he was still numb from the lightning split, he wanted to pull back, but his feet were firmly fixed to the ground.
"It's not good, the head of the regiment is dangerous!"
Seeing this, the nearby soldiers hurriedly rushed up to help, but they were still a step too late.
The boy shouted, and the pressure on the long sword suddenly doubled, and Marcus's hands that were about to freeze could no longer be held.
"Surrender with your weapons!"
The boy held his sword to Marcus's neck in one hand and shouted at the soldiers who were about to rush to help.
The soldiers looked at each other, and the boss fell under the enemy's sword, and he didn't dare to rescue him, but he was unwilling to put down his arms and surrender like this.
"Boom!"
While there was a stalemate, there was a roar of horses' hooves in the distance, and the roar grew louder and louder, and a group of cavalry turned out from behind the woods. The leading cavalry was none other than Ronan, who led people to chase Marcus from last night to the present, and in the middle of the way, Marcus successively divided several groups of personal soldiers to intercept him, slowing him down, so that not only did he not catch up, but fell farther and farther.
"Boss, I'm late. β
From a distance, Ronan had already seen the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, shouting at the top of his voice while hurrying up. The "boss" in his mouth is none other than Stanny. In the vigilante group, Stanny is in charge of commanding the refugee children from the western tribe of the steppe, and is Ronan's immediate boss, and since everyone is young, they prefer to call Stanny Boss when they are together. The other two people along with Stanny are Miranda and Elvis, and when Harvey is assigned the task, the three of them are tasked with intercepting Marcus at the mouth of the canyon who may be escaping. Originally, Stanny was not very reluctant, he preferred to lead the troops to attack the barracks with Harvey, but Harvey told him: Allen's requirements for this battle are to capture the thief and capture the king, so taking Marcus is the top priority, and it is not easy to capture him in the chaos, so it is important to hold the mouth of the canyon. Stanny agreed, but Harvey guessed that Marcus really took advantage of the chaos to escape, and was blocked at the mouth of the canyon.
"It's not too late, it's just in time. Take them all down for me. β
Stanny pointed at the soldiers who were hesitating to lay down their arms and surrender, and now they didn't have to hesitate, not only did the regimental commander fall into the hands of the enemy, but they themselves were completely surrounded by the enemy.
"Boss has worked hard. Fortunately, there is a boss ambush here, otherwise we would have let Marcus run away, and we would not have been able to complete the task assigned by the regiment commander. β
After ordering his men to tie up all the mercenaries, Ronan went to Stanny's side and began to pat himself on the back.
"You guys worked hard, I just picked up a bargain. β
Marcus' performance today disappointed Stanny, so he now regrets not choosing to attack the barracks.
"Ronan, how was it at the barracks last night?"
Miranda walked over and asked.
"Captain Harvey's strategy was successful, and the barracks were taken down without much loss, and now that Marcus has been captured, our mission has been successfully accomplished. β
Ronan said excitedly.
"It's been a big success here, I wonder what the result is on Allen's side?"
Elvis also walked over and said with a worried face.
