Chapter 66: Another Battlefield
Umedada was still preparing for the Star Storm. However, the mage's distracted state actually made her very aware of the situation around her, whether it was Wu Zibin's nervousness and fear and fighting back, or Ossa's amazing courage and disregard for sacrifice, she saw it. But she can't do anything now, and the magic of the Star Storm doesn't take a long time to prepare. But this time is unacceptably long when counted in a hand-to-hand attack.
Umedada watched as the militiamen died one by one, but she could only pray that they would hold on except to force herself to calm down and keep her spell casting.
She had to unleash the magic in its entirety, or all the sacrifices would be in vain.
However, she was also a little puzzled, where did Ji Yijun go? Where did Captain Pompa go? It had been at least five minutes since the attack began, but no one else appeared on the city wall, what the hell was going on?
At this moment, she noticed the sound of airsoft gunfire coming from the other side of the village.
——————————————————
Ji Yijun jumped down from the city wall, and with gravity on his sword, he suddenly split a low-level warrior who rushed in front of him with a sword in half. The black liquid sprayed out, but it was blocked by the toxin-blocking shield on his body.
He raised his sword again, blocking a sword slashed by another low-ranking warrior next to him.
There were still four warriors left in front of the enemy, and Ji Yijun's figure shuttled between them vigorously, letting them entangle themselves under the city and not giving them a chance to climb the city wall.
The militia fighters on the city walls, under the command of Pompa, constantly firing, suppressed the hundreds of imperial soldiers who rushed over. The mage Logan unleashes a wide range of ice magic. Both slows down the enemy and kills them in large numbers.
The attack of the imperial people came very suddenly, Ji Yijun did not expect such a large group of men and horses to appear, fortunately, the militia here had just finished cutting down trees and was about to prepare for drills, and the manpower and weapons were ready-made. When a large number of armed men approached, Pompa immediately sent men to close the gate and let the soldiers with guns run up the walls to defend it.
Equipped with a weapon like an air gun, it is still a great advantage to condescendingly deal with an enemy army with cold weapons that is four times its size.
Although the Imperials had learned the need to spread out their charges against weapons such as air guns, the distance between them was still not large due to the narrow walls of the village. When the militia fired a volley, they didn't need very good marksmanship at all to be able to knock down the enemy. Several of the guards brought by Ji Yijun also joined the battle, their marksmanship was much stronger than that of the militia, and once someone in the imperial charge team seemed to be more powerful, they would be taken care of by them. They tend to work in pairs, gathering fire on each other's powerful fighters, and they can take out one with a few shots.
When the Imperial soldiers rushed closer, the militia above, led by the Guardian soldiers, began to throw hedron grenades downward, and most of the Imperial soldiers were ordinary people, falling in pieces under the attack of bullets and grenades.
And under the city wall, Ji Yijun took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, took out a spar grenade, and threw it directly in the face of one of the enemies besieging him. The grenade exploded, not only tearing off the opponent's skull, but also shaking an enemy in front of him. Ji Yijun had already prepared, the long sword was already waiting for him on the way forward, and the man couldn't stop his steps, and sent his throat to the tip of Ji Yijun's sword.
The remaining one was also disturbed by the explosion, and he didn't pay attention to Ji Yijun took out another spar grenade and threw it at his feet, the explosion lifted him into the air, Ji Yijun drilled under him, raised his sword and passed by, disemboweling him. When the black and red blood in his stomach sprayed down, Ji Yijun had already swept over his body, and reflexively raised his sword to point at the last fighting warrior.
The warrior watched Ji Yijun kill four people in a row in a short period of time, he had been hit without courage, he was about to turn around and run away, but he didn't notice that an ice spear shot from the city wall behind him, poking him to the ground, Ji Yijun quickly stepped forward to make up for the last sword, and reached out to Logan on the city wall and gave him a thumbs up.
"There's another guy who looks pretty good. Logan said on it.
Ji Yijun knew who he was talking about, it was a guy who stayed at the back of the charging team. Looks like the commander of this army. However, when Ji Yijun looked at him, he caught a trace of panic on his face.
This guy has been frightened by the attack of the militia, a frightened enemy, no matter how strong his martial arts are, there is nothing to worry about.
Ji Yijun found that his speed of rushing forward was getting slower and slower, and he gradually distanced himself from the brigade in front of him, this was to escape.
Ji Yijun chose a direction where there were not too many people on the road, and quickly moved closer to the other party, just when the ordinary soldiers suffered heavy losses and were about to disperse, Ji Yijun accelerated, burst out of vindictiveness, and rushed towards the man.
When the officer saw the menacing Ji Yijun, he didn't know whether to fight or run away for a while, which made Ji Yijun and him a big distance apart.
Maybe the bad situation on the field and Ji Yijun's fierce appearance really scared him. The officer finally chose to turn around and run away, and then the speed at which he had just started could not catch up with Ji Yijun's sprint.
The Imperial officer had only run a few steps before he felt a blow in the back, turned around and felt behind his back, only to find that it was a thrown sword poking into his back.
He ran forward a few more steps with difficulty, and heard Ji Yijun's roaring voice.
"Hey, you're mine. Ji Yijun slapped him the back of the neck with his fist, and the officer fell down without resistance.
Ji Yijun didn't intend to let him go, he held the sword inserted in his back, poured the fighting qi into it, and twisted it hard, the officer let out a miserable scream, and he lost his life. Ji Yijun looked behind him, the imperial people who attacked the town had been defeated, and he couldn't help but wonder a little about what made them dare to attack a walled village like this. By the time he returned to the door, the few remaining enemies had fled back into the surrounding woods. Several of the Guardian warriors had mounted their horses, ready to split up in pursuit of the fleeing enemy.
"Ji Yijun, we seem to have seen someone behind the village send out a magic distress signal. Logan reported from the city.
"What? Is it a trick to attack the whole world? It's Umedada! Are they also being attacked?"
"Captain, let's go to the back of the village first?" said the Guardian soldier.
"You go! I'll leave it to Logan and I. Ji Yijun was lucky, and Logan used his flying skills to rush towards the back wall of the village.
