Chapter 153: On the eve of the battle
Outside the boundary south of the first line of heaven, a team of horses was hurrying towards the south. At the front of the team was a group of knights in white steel armor, although all these people were injured all the way, he and they still cheered up 120,000 spirits and vigilantly guarded the surroundings.
It can be seen that these knights are guarding the two people in the team, or more precisely, it should be the little Lori of the two, Her Royal Highness Emma, the Frostwolf Queen.
It had been two days since they left the first-line heaven and earth realm, and although there were no pursuers in the rear, this group of knights was still cautious. In such a tense atmosphere, the team traveled in a hurry for two days, and finally saw the boundary monument of the Snow Eagle Kingdom in the early morning of the third day.
As long as they enter the territory of the Snow Eagle Kingdom, then they are temporarily safe. Just a little relief in the team. Suddenly, the cavalry who was in charge of exploring the road in front returned, bringing news that an army was approaching ahead.
The loose nerves of the knights tensed again, but the little Lori Emma who was in the middle of the team smiled, because she saw a familiar figure flying in the air in the distance, it was the shadow of the snow eagle, reinforcements - finally arrived!
...
A front-line sky position
Bun Zhong and Neville stood on the edge of the sky, watching the group that came from a distance.
Soon, a group of muscular brothers with only a thin layer of fur appeared in the dust. In the middle of the procession were several ornate carriages, on which several tall and bright flags were erected to indicate the identity of the procession - the great slave owners.
It's the only guy who has so many muscular gladiators, that's right! What appeared in front of Wen Zhong was the forgotten big slave owners after Rhett's gorgeous gladiatorial tournament a few days ago.
It was because they were forgotten that these guys stayed in the specially built gladiatorial arena, conducting their own transactions, but somehow survived the orc invasion. When the servants sent by the slave owners hurriedly returned from the battlefield of the Double Lion Castle, the group of fatal creatures realized that they should flee from the gladiatorial arena quickly, but this was already two days after the orc invasion.
But no matter what, Wen Zhong could see that Neville would never let go of this group of muscular brothers. Unlike himself, Neville's personality at this time has long been sublimated, and he is no longer bound by different countries. In his opinion, only if he and others held a line of heaven could they have a chance to let the nations of the human race react to the invasion of the beast race.
For the sake of the human race, he also wants to let these big slave owners stay with great righteousness. However, it is a pity that these slave owners have heavy troops in their hands, and they are usually above the top, and they are also talking to big people at the level of city lords, how can they be kind to Neville, a down-and-out general who does not have many people under his hands.
If it's a fist? The big slave owner who didn't know Wen Zhong's force value was not scared at all, but there were many muscular brothers and nobles under his hands! Neville struggled to speak, but the few great slave owners who had united set up a score, and the great slave owner Xes, who was the leader, said, "What kind of general! If you have a lot of gold, you can buy these slaves from me. For the sake of the orc invasion, I don't plan to make war money, as long as you can get the gold coins, all the slaves under my command will be yours!
But if you don't have any money, then please get out of the way and let me leave this hellish place with my possessions, my time is precious! ”
Neville struggled to look at the dead fat man in front of him, clutching his sword tightly and wanting to cut the fat pig with a single sword. But the last remaining reason did its job, and as the young man stood helpless and weak, a palm rested on his shoulder.
If it's the author's blue pool here.,I'll definitely shout that there should be a book here.。
Wen Zhong patted Neville on the shoulder behind him, revealing his trademark smile and saying, "It's better to... Let me do it! ”
Neville stepped aside, letting go of the dragon knight behind him. As soon as Wen Zhong appeared, the faces of the several big slave owners present became very ugly, as if they remembered some bad memories.
As if to help these big slave owners regain their lost memories, the Seven Little Warriors turned out of the defensive position behind Wen Zhong. At this time, they were dressed in iron armor and holding their respective famous weapons, standing behind the dragon knight, looking at the former "master" with a playful face.
The hemorrhaging Xue Si didn't have a good face for the black-haired knight in front of him, and the three reserve gods of war in his hands were forcibly taken away at a very low price. However, time has changed, and at this time, he can see very clearly, without the official level and the dragon knight with the banner of the dragon, there is nothing to fear.
I only heard Xue Si yin and yang say weirdly: "What? What kind of slaves does Lord Dragon Knight want to 'snatch' from me? He deliberately bit the word 'snatch' very hard, which aroused the feelings of several slave owners in his company, and immediately the muzzle of the gun was unanimously aimed at Wen Zhong.
Wen Zhong still maintained his trademark smile, looking at the big slave owners without saying a word. The exposed white teeth looked particularly infiltrating in the eyes of several people. Finally, when several of the big slave owners were staring at him and wanted to have a seizure, he spoke.
But instead of speaking to a few slave owners, he asked in a loud voice: "Gladiators who have pledged allegiance to me! What did you get from me!? ”
Heaven is pitiful, Wen Zhong, a patient with secondary two diseases, also encountered some secondary two diseases, only to hear the gladiatorial seven Xiaoqiang behind him actually very cooperative and shouted: "Freedom!" Freely! Freely! ”
The sound resounded throughout the sky, and the magic of the word freedom actually caused a commotion among the group of slave gladiators behind the great slave master. Even the watchers on one side, wielding their whips, could not suppress the riots of the slave gladiators.
However, apparently Wen Zhong didn't intend to forget it like that, and continued to ask in a loud voice: "I'll ask you again!" Would you rather die standing as free, or would you rather kneel down and live as a slave!? ”
Only this time, the Seven Little Warriors behind him did not answer Wen Zhong's question, because even they looked at each other and fell into deep thought.
It is better to die standing than to live on your knees.
This has always been a controversial false proposition, but it is enough to make many people argue for a lifetime. Especially the sympathetic slave gladiators, who were even more restless.
Wen Zhong didn't need to say anything more next, even if he didn't propose to keep these muscular brothers and nobles at this time, he was afraid that these fat slave owners wouldn't dare to take these bigwigs on the road again, right? Sometimes, it is true that inciting people is just a matter of one or two sentences.
Xerce's face suddenly turned very ugly, and he regretted that he would let this dragon knight speak. Obviously, he has been defeated by this guy's mouth before, and this time he is stupid enough to mock this guy. Listening to the constant shouting and scolding of the watchers in the rear and the sound of leather whips waving, he knew that he might not be able to save the slaves under his hands.
He suppressed his fat voice and snorted coldly: "Let those lowly gladiators choose for themselves, leave with me if you want to live, and stay with me if you want to die!" ”
gave a slap to the attendant next to him, and scolded angrily: "Don't go yet!" Xue Sicai, who sighed slightly, squinted his eyes and looked at the dragon knight who was laughing very terrifyingly in front of him and said, "I have already done what I can do, can I let it go?" Dragon Knight-sama!? ”
Wen Zhong didn't speak, but looked at the others behind Xue Si. Xue Si sneered and stepped aside, the slave owners were originally competing with each other, if only he paid the "road money", I was afraid that he would not be able to accept it.
Eventually, the few remaining large slave owners had to make the same arrangement. As the order was conveyed, cheers resounded from a line of heaven and earth. Listening to the cheers, Neville finally smiled, and was about to raise his hand to give the order to get out of the way, but was held down by the dragon knight.
He looked at the latter suspiciously, only to see that the dragon knight still looked at several big slave owners with a smile on his face!
Xue Si's face changed several times, and he could see it. While it was true that Neville was the one who spoke in this place, it was clear that Neville listened more to the Dragon Knight. He asked in an unkind tone, "Lord Dragon Knight!" I've handed over my slaves, do you want to kill them all!? ”
Several other large slave owners were also unkind, and while most of the slave gladiators had chosen to stay, there were always a few who had been completely enslaved and chose to continue to follow their masters. If Wen Zhong really planned to keep him, they wouldn't mind fighting for their lives, after all, they were all thick-faced and black-hearted guys, and they couldn't do anything to survive.
I saw Wen Zhong say with a smile: "You big slave owners who are enthusiastic about fighting against foreign races have misunderstood, I don't mean to keep you, after all, we are just a group of defeated soldiers, stationed here to guard the last line of defense, there are almost no supplies left..."
He didn't continue, but his eyes were fixed on the mountain of supply carts at the back of the slave owners' ranks...
A few big slave owners: "..."
...
In the end, the team of big slave owners who were forcibly stripped of a layer of skin by Wen Zhong passed through the first-line heavenly passage with a thin team, leaving behind a large number of supplies and a large group of muscular brothers.
Neville bowed under Bunzhong's big pants again, and what he couldn't do, the dragon knight just said a few words and put those damned slave owners into order.
Wen Zhong didn't know what the guy in front of him had in mind, after exploiting the big slave owner, there were already about two hundred and thirty soldiers who could fight in the first-line heavenly passage. I don't know if it's because of Neville, but he suddenly changed his mind and wanted to help this thing survive as much as possible until the day he left the script.
However, with the hundreds of people under his command, it is almost impossible to intercept an army of tens of thousands of orcs. At this moment, even Wen Zhong was a little uneasy in his heart.
As mentioned earlier, things often don't go as planned. Just when Wen Zhong was thinking about how to delay the battle, the orc army had already slaughtered in a huge way, almost stepping on the time when the slave master left. It was the brute hooves that the leader learned of the annihilation of the wolf cavalry, and he jumped like thunder!
The orc army appeared so quickly that Neville didn't even have time to gather the gladiators, so he had to rush into battle.
Many even got weapons in their hands, but not even a decent piece of armor. Just as Neville looked at the army of orcs in front of him with a very ugly face, there was a violent noise from behind everyone!
The sound was so loud that it even affected several unstable rocks above the first-line heavenly passage, and the rocks fell down, almost injuring several people. Neville looked behind him in surprise and suspicion, and hurriedly sent someone to the rear to check.
The soldiers who had gone to check it out after a short time came back and reported in a panic what was going on in the rear...
Neville listened to the soldier's report with a grim face, they... Betrayed!
