Chapter 335: The Pursuers Are Coming
It has been more than half a month since Liu Xin and his entourage left the royal capital of Lordaeron, and in this half month, Liu Xin finally understood a problem again. Some people, no matter how much they talk and how long they have been dating, are like strangers. But some people, even if they only say a word, can know that he is their eternal confidant. Varian is the latter for Liu Xin, and there are too many similarities between the two. There are too many external factors that force them to step into the position they don't want to go up.
Liu Xin had to stand on the front line against aliens because of the system. And Varian, because of his status as a prince, had to step on the throne of the Stormwind Kingdom.
The two who cherish each other, even if they have only been together for half a month, the relationship between Liu Xin and Varian is much better than that of Alsace, who has known him for many years, and Varian has become one of Liu Xin's few friends.
"Liu Xin, tomorrow during the day, we can leave the range of Lundane and reach the Sadol Bridge, and then we can enter the territory of the dwarves." Varian, who was resting in the camp, said to Liu Xin.
"Really? This is the last night in Lordaeron. It's about to be a full moon again" Liu Xin looked up at the endless starry sky in the sky, and the moon that was about to be full, and murmured in a low voice.
"Full moon? What happened to the full moon? Once a month, there is a problem? Varian asked, somewhat confused.
"My brother hates the full moon very much, and every time the moon is full, he stays in the house and can't call it out." Before Liu Xin could speak, Anne next to him said without saying anything. Dalaran has a magic party every time there is a full moon, and every time Anne wants to ask Liu Xin to see it, but Liu Xin refuses.
"Really? Then let's find a place to camp early tomorrow night! Varian didn't ask why Liu Xin hated the full moon, after all, everyone has their own secrets.
There was no word for the night, and early the next morning, the guards got up early, began to pack their bags, and prepared to open the road again.
"Your Majesty, three of the guards who kept vigil last night were missing, and a whole squad has mysteriously disappeared, shall we wait or continue on our way?" At this point, one of the guards entered the tent and spoke to Varian.
"Missing? Didn't anyone see where they went? Varian also frowned deeply, there had been no such problem on the march for almost half a month before, why did such a thing happen when he was about to leave Lordaeron?
"Wait for them for half an hour, maybe they're going somewhere." Varian eventually decided to wait.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour had passed, but the vigil team did not appear, and everyone had to go on the road again.
Although no one opened their mouths to discuss the matter, the atmosphere of the entire escort team was a little more oppressive and weird
As the day passed in the blink of an eye, and the sky was getting darker, the convoy that had reached the Sadol Bridge began to camp at the bridge, ready to rest. The entire escort team was in a strange atmosphere all day, even if the body was not tired, but the spirit was tense all the time, and the three disappeared guards brought a trace of unknown fear to the entire camp.
Liu Xin, who was still talking and laughing with Anne, suddenly felt a huge sense of crisis that made his hairs stand upside down, Liu Xin didn't hesitate, and rolled directly to the side with a sideways body.
As soon as Liu Xin's front foot rolled away, he roared a sharp spear, which cut through the air, and flew past Liu Xin's original position with a whirring strong wind.
Liu Xin dodged the spear's attack, but the storm guard behind Liu Xin was not so lucky, and in just an instant, the spear pierced the guard's chest. As the spear sank into the guard's chest, a sonic boom exploded in the air, and it was obvious that the spear's firing speed had broken through the sound barrier before it could explode into a sonic boom.
"Enemy attack, protect His Royal Highness!" In an instant, the entire escort team spun rapidly like a moving gear. All the guards put down their work, drew their weapons, and looked solemnly in all directions.
"Bang Bang!" A round of applause rang out from behind a hill not far away, and a team of nearly 30 people walked out, led by a flat-headed man wearing armor and holding a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right.
"It's a legendary mission, even if it's in such a weird atmosphere all day, I haven't lost my vigilance, yes, very good." The flat-headed man clapped his hands while looking at Liu Xin and said.
"From Earth?" Just glanced at the other party's team, Liu Xin saw Liu Hanxin standing at the edge of the team, and instantly understood the origin and meaning of the other party.
"Wise, Your Highness Varian, we don't want to be your enemy, our target is that kid. I'm sure you've seen our strength, if we really fight together, we're definitely losing both, are you willing to sacrifice the soldiers you accept for the sake of this kid? Without any hesitation, the flat-headed man put the most acute question in front of Varian.
Liu Xin didn't speak, just stood calmly to the side, waiting for Varian's decision. The guards also subconsciously looked back at Varian behind them.
"Hmph, kill!" Seeing that Varian was still pondering, the guards also subconsciously looked at Varian. The flat-headed man knew that this was an opportunity, and from the moment he threw the spear just now, they were already on opposite sides, and there was no possibility of reconciliation at all. At this time, seeing that many guards relaxed their vigilance, they did not hesitate to issue an order to attack, and nearly 20 people in the team took a step in an instant, thinking that Varian's escort team rushed over.
Listening to the other party's order, Varian also woke up, his face full of anger that could not be concealed, and at the same time yelled: "Kill!" ”
In this way, the two sides began a life-and-death battle on the Saldo Bridge in the sunset!
"All those above level 40 keep up, our goal is Liu Xin!" The flat-headed man looked at the two teams that had come into contact with each other, raised his hand, and rushed out with the rest of the people.
With the flat-headed man as a sharp knife, more than a dozen people instantly formed a sharp arrow, inserted into the encirclement of Varian's many guards, and as soon as they touched, the Varian escort was torn open a huge gap, and none of the guards were the enemies of the flat-headed man.
The thick armor on the flat-headed man slammed away the many guards who blocked the way, like a meat ball smashed out on the bowling alley, and instantly knocked the guards in front of him to the ground.
Behind the flat-headed man, a man with a strong body and a spear in his hand was completely used as a stick to draw the spear, and before he drew it, the bodies of three or two guards flew out in various postures.
The team of more than a dozen people formed a triangular arrow, and then the arrow crushed through the guards without hindrance, like a herd of galloping cattle stepping over a scarecrow on the side of the road, without even slowing down a bit.
"Liu Xin, hurry up, I'll stop them!" Varian looked at the menacing group of people, and pushed Liu Xin the back, directly pushing Liu Xin out, while he himself rushed into the front line of the battle, trying to stop the advancing triangular arrow.
I saw Varian wielding a two-handed sword and slashing at the flat-headed man. The flat-headed man also knew that Varian was powerful, and his arm was slightly raised, and the iron shield was in front of him, blocking the attack path of Varian's two-handed sword.
"Bang!"
The sound of gold and iron striking sounded at the top of the triangular arrow, and the flat-headed man who was carrying the shield was stunned by Varian's blow, and the entire triangular arrow was split in two because of the flat-headed man's pause, and the formation was completely chaotic.
"Come up and stop Varian, I'll kill Liu Xin!" The flat-headed man let out an angry roar, ready to call the people next to him to stop Varian, but no one went, and all the so-called 'elites' above level 40 rushed towards Liu Xin in an instant.
Killing Liu Xin is a personal legendary task, not a team task, whoever kills him, who will complete the task, this is the most critical moment, who will care about the flat-headed man, everyone rushed straight to Liu Xin, under the legendary task reward, the so-called team fell apart in an instant, this is human nature.
"Want to kill me? Come on! Liu Xin looked at the attacker who rushed towards him without hesitation, picked up Annie, turned over and climbed onto a war horse next to him, and rushed quickly. It's not that Liu Xin ignores Varian and his party, at this time Liu Xin is the main target of everyone, as long as he runs away, Varian and their battle will end quickly. Attackers who do not have high-end combat power, seeing those 'elites' chasing Liu Xin, will definitely retreat without hesitation, and no one will use their own name to make wedding dresses for others for no reason.
Sure enough, as Liu Xin's horse galloped, those 'elites' chased out without stopping. The entire battlefield underwent earth-shaking changes at the moment Liu Xin left, and many pursuers who could barely fight against Varian began a rapid rout, leaving a few corpses behind, and quickly withdrew from the battlefield, only the flat-headed man was still entangled by Varian and could not leave.
"Damn, these white-eyed wolves, don't let me catch you or you'll die!" The flat-headed man who was entangled by Varian looked at those so-called elites and roared angrily in his heart, but Varian's attack made him have to deal with it carefully.
"Let's withdraw first, or after those guards surround me, the number of people in the pile will pile me to death! (Damn), this Varian deserves to be the king of Stormwind, he is so strong at only level 20, and he will have a future! The flat-headed man kept defending under Varian's attack, and finally found an opportunity to break away from Varian's entanglement and go straight into the bushes next to him. (To be continued.) )
