Chapter 24: The Village of Boshka,
The black oppression in front of him was not sand, but an enslaved army. Dye Qi saw the soldiers with orange-red scorch marks flashing on their bodies through the binoculars, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
That's probably what hell is called in books.
"Prepare your whole army!"
Sheng Hua issued an order to the whole army.
The soldiers in the far suburbs received the order as soon as possible and began to guard the troops in the distance. Everyone raised their weapons, and the archers and large crossbows on the walls were fully loaded.
The battle is on the verge of breaking out.
"Roar!"
A loud noise sounded above their heads, and a black shadow the size of a small village flew quickly through the clouds, and the hurricane could be clearly felt even on the ground a hundred meters below.
"What's that?"
The swift passing black shadow frightened everyone present, except Sheng Hua.
"It's coming. ”
He drew the golden sword at his waist.
"All the cannon doors, aim at the dark shadows in the sky!"
The artillery near the castle began to move, aiming at the huge black shadow that flew towards them.
"Fire!"
A salvo of all guns was fired, hundreds of guns were embedded in the gray clouds, and after a short silence, a huge explosion appeared in the gray clouds, illuminating the whole of Makarsia.
"It's over?"
Riel was incredulous.
"No, it's just the beginning. ”
As soon as Sheng Hua finished speaking, a violent storm swept through the entire castle manor in an instant, blowing dozens of artillery pieces apart directly, and the others were also blown upside down, and it took a lot of time to re-fire.
The gray clouds in the sky dissipated, and a giant dragon draped in red dragon scales flapped its wings and hovered over the castle. Its eyes shone with an ominous purple light.
"The Yanlong clan?"
Sheng Hua had fought with the dragon several times, so he naturally recognized the race of this dragon.
"Hah!"
Sheng Hua activated his own psionic energy. He used armor called Spirit Armor, which was supposed to be available on the front lines. Under the manipulation of psionic energy, the separable fragments of the spirit armor were all spliced onto his long sword.
The armed sword suddenly burst out with a golden glow that was dimmed and dazzling by the sun. This is the enhanced arcane technique of the [St. Moriet Stream], the Heavenly Sacred Sword.
The huge golden giant sword was more than 100 meters long, and every time Sheng Hua swung the long sword, it would drive a strong gust of wind. When the blade of the golden sword collided with the dragon's scale armor, the sky was set on fire with sparks.
"It seems that Lord Shenghua has already started, so let's start too. ”
Dye Qi said to Riel.
In front of him, like a torrent of troops, charged from a distance. The undead felt no pain or emotion, and the orange-red scorch shimmered with a chilling light.
Dye Qi was wearing a set of dark blue armor, which Sheng Hua specially cared for. At this time, the sword of empty silver shone with a water-blue light effect, and combined with the power of the rune [silver], the light on the sword body became as shimmering as the surface of water.
[Silver] brings frozen ice.
He turned around and spun his sword, and a powerful cold aura gathered on the sword body, releasing huge ice crystals tens of meters long, freezing everything in front of him.
"Let's fight!"
The battle began, and all personnel were in a position. The undead rushed into battle, and the soldiers scuffled together. But for the sake of food and shelter, these soldiers are desperate, even more terrible than the undead.
In the early days of the battle, the Makarsian army could be said to be extremely brave, and they could stop all the waves of the undead, but after a long time, those men became visibly tired.
The undead are not bound by physical strength, and for them, there are only two endings: enslavement and complete death.
The defensive lines on the outskirts were not impregnable either. In the afternoon, the defending army had already been forced to retreat to the vicinity of the city gate, which was the second line of defense led by Sheng Hua.
If the undead army enters the city, it will inevitably cause huge property damage. Sheng Hua knew this very well, but now he was still at war with the dragon, and he didn't have time to command the people below.
"Be sure to block it here!"
As the temporary spokesperson of the Mavar family, Yuro said to all the squad leaders in the castle tower. But all she knew was to keep the undead at bay here, and she didn't know exactly how to do it.
As for the real Mavar family master, he may be hiding comfortably in some shelter now.
"But how to stop it. ”
Some of the squad leaders began to ask.
"This..."
Yuro couldn't give an answer.
"Prepare shieldmen and pikemen to completely annihilate them in the narrow gates. ”
At this time, Dye Qi flew to the city tower. If the undisciplined mess continues, sooner or later the Makarsha will be in ruins.
Everyone who saw Dye Qi was stunned for a moment, but the team leaders also knew his identity, so they immediately ordered the use of the tactics formulated by Dye Qi.
The shieldmen were in front, the pikemen were behind, and the archers and crossbows on the walls were ready to support them.
But even so, there is no 100% certainty that it will be able to hold on.
"Enough!"
A loud echo sounded in everyone's heads, the voice of a dragon in the sky. Only high-level monsters can talk to other species.
"Ants, surrender to me!"
Piercing sound waves emanated from the dragon's mouth, shattering the wooden signs in the streets and the glass of the houses. Everyone covered their ears, but the loud noise still penetrated their ears.
Soldiers and civilians alike fell to their knees, as if something had gotten into their brains, and in just a moment, some of them stood up.
But at this time, their eyes revealed an ominous orange-red light. This is a sign of assimilation.
"How is that possible..."
Before they could react, many were already pressed to the ground by their former comrades and then ruthlessly killed. In the evacuation facilities, many civilians also rioted and killed their loved ones.
The Makarsha fell into a real belly and back enemy.
Dye Qi used his psionic energy to fend off the dragon's sound waves, but the loud noise still made him a little dizzy. But now he understood that if he didn't get rid of the dragon, Makarsha would have to perish.
He raced in the direction of the castle, the city's vantage point, from where the dragon could be attacked with psionic magic, even if it hadn't landed now.
But Dye Qi's only psionic technique is the rune technique of the empty silver sword.
"I'm going too..."
Riel grabbed Dye Qi, he was miraculously not assimilated, should it be said that it was lucky.
"Well, the aiming of the artillery is up to you. ”
Dye Qi knows that at this time, don't refuse a man's determination.
The two came to the vicinity of the castle. It was originally a plant and flower that the Marwar family had carefully cared for, but now they have been burned black by the war, and the remaining flowers have turned yellow in the heat.
They repositioned and loaded all the guns that were still running, and the original gunners were assimilated by the dragons, and Dye Qi had to kill them.
After igniting all the cannons, Riel aimed at the dragon's head, and several cannonballs exploded, hitting the target without moving.
"Damn. ”
The dragon roared softly and turned to look at the dyers.
"Incantation"
Dye Qi unleashed the runes of the Empty Silver Sword, and a huge ice pick formed in the air, stabbing at the dragon at a rapid speed. 、
The psionic attack was effective, and although the dragon blocked the ice pick, there were many scars left on the scales. At this time, ordinary shells can't do it.
When the dragon was distracted by the dye, Sheng Hua jumped up. With the help of the spirit armor, his jumping ability also became extraordinary, and he jumped dozens of meters with just a slight force.
"Death!"
The golden blade slashed heavily at the dragon's neck, and Sheng Hua flashed, leaving a huge blood mark on its scales.
"How dare you hurt me!"
It seems to be enraged. The gray clouds in the sky slowly gathered above its head, forming a huge whirlpool. Red thunder and lightning swirled through the clouds, threatening to erupt at any moment.
The dragon roared, and the red thunder rained down on the city below. At this time, only high-level monsters can do it, dominating the heavenly phase.
Sheng Hua continued to use the long sword in his hand to resist the attack of thunder and lightning, but before the next lightning strike, his golden light sword blade would be shattered, and after reforming the blade, the attack of thunder and lightning came again.
Dye Qi and Rare dodge and fight back, but this attack without precision and power does not do any damage to the dragon.
A huge lightning strike suddenly landed behind them, and the two of them couldn't dodge and were shocked by the aftermath and flew out. Sheng Hua in the distance saw this scene, and it was this brief distraction that made him fly out of the country by lightning.
It's just that he was directly hit, but fortunately, with the protection of the spirit armor, he didn't suffer much damage. But now he is paralyzed and unable to move.
"Damn. ”
Sheng Hua wanted to move his body, but he couldn't.
"You're damned. ”
The dragon fell to the ground, its mouth pregnant with a hot red flame. Just as it was about to erupt, Dye Qi slammed into the dragon's head like a blue light.
"Be serious!"
The long sword in Dye Qi's hand bloomed with brilliant light, turning into a blue four-pointed star again, and in a high-speed combo, it blinded the eyes of the unsuspecting dragon.
The dragon shook its head violently in pain, throwing the dyed qi directly out of the distance of 100 meters, and hit the rock wall hard. Dye Qi only felt that his ribs and spine were broken, but fortunately, he used his psionic energy to block some of the impact.
The sharp pain in his lungs made Dye Qi gasp, and this was the second time he felt this pain. Compared to the previous time, this time it is still better.
"You..."
The dragon stared at Dye Qi as he knelt on the ground with his last remaining eye.
"Let the thunderbolt bury you!"
It spread its massive wings, ready to rise and summon thunder and lightning. But in an instant, a huge ice pick pierced its wing membrane, causing it to tumble out of mid-air.
"Don't think..."
Dye Qi used his last strength to deprive the dragon of its ability to fly.
"You brute!"
The dragon's mouth erupted with crimson flames, struck at Dye Qi like tongues of fire. The extremely high temperature caused Dye Qi's clothes to start burning, and the armor began to melt.
Is that the end of it? Dye Qi closed his eyes, and it seemed that this was the end of his life.
"Cheer me up!"
Rare rushed in front of Dye Qi, turning his sword to control the giant flame in front of him, although such a resistance was futile, but it was able to hold out for a while.
"You bastard, get out of here. ”
Dye Qi tried to reach out and push Riel away, but he couldn't.
"You must give me a life!"
Rare slowly stepped back and threw Dye Qi out, engulfing himself in the crimson flames.
"Take my share and change. ”
He said with a smile as if he heard Riel at the end.
The flames slowly dissipated, and Rare's body fell to the ground like charred charcoal, making a cracking sound.
Dye Qi's throat couldn't make any sound, and a powerful sense of emptiness swept through his body, and the best friend who had been with him for so long was only a skeleton at this time.
"Riel..."
He still couldn't believe what was in front of him.
"Did you hide it? ”
The dragon glanced disdainfully at the charred corpse on the ground.
"Can you still get out of the way this time?"
New flames burst out of the dragon's mouth, but they were blocked by the golden blades. Sheng Hua's paralysis time is over. And at this time, the dragon is no longer in its heyday.
"It's okay for you to be my opponent. ”
The dragon's attitude towards Sheng Hua was still very wary, after all, as a Templar, he had the ability to kill the dragon alone.
"As for you, have fun with your friends. ”
A red glow erupted from the dragon's body, and the blackened corpse that had fallen to the ground slowly regained its blood color, and ominous orange-red scorch marks appeared on its body.
"No, it won't. ”
The man standing in front of the crowd was none other than Riel.
