Chapter 20: The Arrogance of Fortune

"Are you really our comrade-in-arms?"

After the group left, Miria stayed where she was, holding her chin in one hand and whispering to herself.

"Sure enough, you still have such doubts, your face just now is obviously different from the others." Just as she was talking to herself, Hua Feng suddenly came out and asked curiously, "But why are you confused?" Obviously, my previous explanation is enough for you to believe. ”

"Whew." Taking a deep breath, Miria did not disguise, and generously stated the reason for her suspicions, "I don't doubt your position in this battle, the reasons you said are really sufficient, what I suspect is your nature, so can you still be our comrade-in-arms in the future?" ”

"Like this?" After a slight deep groan, Hua Feng's eyes flashed, "I see, it seems that you are smarter than that guy Flora, no wonder you can become the leader of a group of people." ”

"That's right, I just want those humans to be cannon fodder." Hua Feng, who was very frank, said his previous purpose of demagogic in broad daylight.

"Don't show such a horrible expression, it doesn't match your face at all." Facing Miria's sudden face, Hua Feng said lightly, without any intention of justifying himself, "My approach is just waste utilization. ”

"After all, when they were besieged to this city, their fate was already sealed."

"In the face of the demons outside, you can't defend the city, and you can't send so many humans out of the city, so their results are already doomed, and my approach can at least make them die with dignity and live more."

Miria didn't refute, just as she hadn't exposed Hua Feng in front of everyone before, because she already knew that the truth was as cruel as Hua Feng said now, and the end of those human beings was already doomed.

"To be honest, I'm really curious, why do you have such a sense of responsibility to these creatures that are so inferior to you, when you can't be counted as human anymore, and humans don't recognize you as their kind?" Without giving Miria a respite, Hua Feng continued to speak cold words.

"We are great swords, and we are also human beings." But this time, unlike before, without even the slightest hesitation, Miria gave the answer.

"The great sword should protect humanity."

"Hmph, with the information you have now, you should know that what you say is not very true." With a sneer, Hua Feng interrupted Miria's conversation.

"And what about you, self-proclaimed human fellow." Without answering the question she didn't want to answer, Miria asked Hua Feng directly.

"For me, human beings have no meaning, they are just a creature that lives on the body, and because of the human body's dependence on the body, they tend to refuse more effective ways of communication, and they are more easily controlled by emotions, so it can be said that it is a life with a low degree of evolution."

There was no tone of contempt, Hua Feng just told everything as usual, although what he said was full of contempt.

"You are also human, at least you choose to be human." Although she couldn't fully understand Hua Feng's words before, there were some things that Milia could still be sure of.

"That's right, I chose humans, because of their stupidity, their uncontrollability, so their evolution is also the most colorful, just from the observation of humans, you can collect more than 300 ways of evolution of intelligent races, for me to have these advantages, it is natural to bear a little disadvantage."

After a pause, Hua Feng showed a smile, "This is not the same as your great sword, no matter how much you think of yourself as a human being, you can't be recognized." ”

"Ka!" The teeth rubbed violently, as if they were about to break every tooth, the silver pupils turned into gold and erected like a feline, and the delicate face was destroyed by the rising green tendons, and a strong murderous aura emanated from Milia's body.

"Think about whether you're going to be human, or something, but either way, you should be better than you are caught in the middle."

Turning, the voice continued, "This decision is especially important when you are already close to the truth of your work. ”

"Is he trying to remind me?" The murderous aura on Miria's body faded, and her erected pupils returned to their original state, and the confusion in her eyes became more and more serious as she looked at the figure that was getting farther and farther away, and finally turned into a question that had nothing to do with her.

"By the way, do you really want to be human?"

"What do you mean!"

"After collecting the blood of Flora, Galadia, Claire and other great swords, I have figured out the way you create demonic energy to produce demonic energy, and I have also figured out the way you are corrupted, if you really want to become human, I can help."

"......" Miria was silent, unable to answer the question.

"Of course, on the other hand, if you want to become a real greatsword, I can do it too, and I don't have to worry about the awakening problem of the greatsword again."

After saying this, Hua Feng didn't wait for an answer and turned to leave.

After Hua Feng left, Miria also walked away quickly, but her route seemed to be a little delicate, and along the way, she met again with Claire, who obviously didn't leave quickly, but it was as if she was just passing by, and the moment they met, they separated again.

Instead of looking for a place to rest, Greatsword is looking for his teammates and strengthening his bond with them, hoping to familiarize himself with their abilities and prepare for the battle that follows, such as Divi and Ventini, like Claire and Flora. Although it was only a test before, it was already a sign that the official battle was not far off.

As for the remaining Great Sword Reserves, except for a very small number of weapons distributed to the human race and arranged for the human to evacuate, they have all entered various areas in accordance with the battle plan.

Fortunately, the preparations for the battle had already been made before Miria and the others arrived, and Galadia arranged for the construction of various traps as soon as she became the commander, so although the demon attack was too early, the preparations were still successfully completed.

And the truth was not unexpected by the great swordsmen, 10 minutes after the death of the three awakened people who came to tempt, the demon moved.

The intensity of the demon siege in all directions has increased dramatically, and it is as if they have suddenly lost their fear, obviously countless arrows falling can easily take their lives in the dense formation, but they did not rush in small groups to leave room for dodge like before, but came like a tide.

The corpse in front of him had just fallen, and he was immediately trampled into flesh by the demon behind him, such a scene lasted for a while when the demon had just attacked the city and was chaotic, but then it was rare with the demon organization, and at this moment such a scene was repeated.

The hunters on the city wall almost stretched their limits to attack, drawing their bows and shooting arrows, facing the demons that came like a tide, if it weren't for the fact that they had been holding on to the city wall for so long, and there was also the order of the big sword beside them, it is estimated that someone would have crossed the limit long ago and had to withdraw from the battlefield.

But even this saturated attack didn't stop the demons, and they stepped on layer after layer of corpses of their kind, approaching the city walls, almost to the point where they could climb to the top a few times.

And at this moment, the great sword reserves also took action, and the superb sword skills that they had practiced all year round, as well as the experience gained after experiencing actual combat, were fully exerted at this moment.

In an instant, they judged the position of the demon who climbed to the city wall, and then slashed with the big sword, taking advantage of the opponent's unstable foothold, and killed them with one blow, and they could only fight one or two demons head-on, but at this moment they successfully suppressed the enemy who was several times their size.

However, it is unlikely that how long such a defensive position can last depends on their efforts, the real combat power of the demon side has not yet been put into battle, unless they have not participated in the battle, otherwise when they participate in the battlefield, it is the moment when the city wall is lost.

And this moment did not seem too far away, at this moment, where the naked eye could see, several figures appeared behind the demons, and then it seemed that in the next moment, those figures narrowed the distance between them and the city wall, and where these figures appeared, the demons were ruthlessly trampled.

Those figures may be huge, or they may be grotesque, beast-shaped, plant-shaped, and they all look like they are all sorts of neat and undemonic, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they exude a powerful demonic aura, strong enough to make any great sword feel their extraordinary demonic aura.

The most important thing is that their formation is not as messy as the appearance, on the contrary, they can be called well-formed when they advance on the basis of a squad.

With the Awoken appearing, the skirmish has ended, and the Battle of the Northlands has officially begun.
