155: The Battle of the Trapped Beasts
Although he knew the other party's intentions, Pardson still turned around and chased after Jiajing.
The red-eyed griffin was extremely fast, and at full speed, it soon made its way through the dense complex and came to the vicinity of the inner city walls.
At this time, the city guards who are responsible for guarding this area have not received any news of the battle, after all, their main duty is to prevent foreign invasions, and the security in the city is maintained by the city guards, and the angel capital is in the belly of the empire, where will any foreign enemies dare to invade, so the guards are very relaxed, and the guards guarding the city suddenly saw a man and a beast rushing towards them, and before they could close the city gate, they were knocked by the red-eyed griffin into dozens of guards who stopped at the city gate.
Jiajing didn't care about hurting the city guards, and forcibly broke through the guards' blockade, not daring to hesitate, letting the red-eyed griffin speed up and continue to run westward.
The speed of the dragon is much faster than that of the red-eyed griffin, as long as Jiajing hesitates a little, he will have to be caught up by Paderson, in case he is entangled by the other party, the city guards chase him, even if Jiajing has great ability, don't want to escape, the advantage of flying monsters is very obvious, Jiajing can only find the terrain that is easy to hide in the woods and mountains to avoid the pursuit from the air.
The outer city is mostly residential and densely populated near the inner city, but the farther away from the inner city, the more sparse it becomes, and when you reach the west gate of the outer city, there are no houses left.
The red dragon was seriously injured, and its speed slowed down a lot, and it was still two or three kilometers away from Jiajing.
Jiajing, who had sharp eyes, could already see the dragon's sharp teeth exposed by the dragon's mouth, and hurriedly forcibly broke through the second wave of guards.
I saw a twenty-meter-wide moat running through the outside of the city, the terrain outside was flat, and there was no terrain convenient for hiding whereabouts, at the beginning of the establishment of the imperial capital, various strategic issues had been considered, and this flat landform did not have any mountains and rocks and forests, and even if there were, they had already cleared them, so as not to use it to cover the enemy to make siege equipment or fill the moat.
The huge winch slowly rotated under the pull of twenty sturdy soldiers, the heavy drawbridge slowly rose, and hundreds of arrows burst through the air with a whirring sound and shot towards Jiajing.
Jiajing no longer hesitated, and the golden electric energy was activated, regardless of the crossbow arrows shot by the city guards behind him, and quickly rushed out.
The drawbridge was only about twenty meters, and the red-eyed griffin was extremely fast, and it had already run out of the moat, and the army outside the city wringed the drawbridge just a reflex.
A few people who were still on the suspension bridge and were about to leave the city were startled when they saw bows and arrows flying all over the sky, and hurriedly lowered their bodies and crawled with their bodies, and ran towards the city without their lives, but fortunately, those bows and arrows were shot towards Jiajing, and they escaped quickly without being injured.
Padson was on top of the dragon, and saw that those huge bed crossbows were filled with huge armor-piercing arrows, and knew that the range and power of these giant bed crossbows were very amazing, so he did not dare to rush close to the city wall, so he had to slow down and let Watander fly high, until the bed crossbow was beyond the range, and did not dare to fly over the city wall.
The bed crossbow is specially used to deal with the powerful air force, such as the elf's Chimera, Pegasus, Kasia's Thunderbird, etc., the specially made armor-piercing arrow can even pierce the dragon's hard scale armor, in addition to the dragon can fly to the height beyond the range of the bed crossbow, the thunderbird and Pegasus carrying people are not good, the Chimera is even worse, in fact, the bed crossbow is not able to block the dragon from entering the city, just to prevent the dragon from assisting the enemy army to attack the city, even if the dragon enters the city, without the assistance of ground troops, it is basically impossible to cause chaos in the city. Unless it is a certain number of dragons, but generally dragons will not participate in human wars, except for those dragons who contract with humans, there are not many dragon knights in a country, and even fewer serve the empire, and it is extremely unrealistic to want to form a large-scale invasion of large cities.
After such a delay, Jiajing stretched the distance to more than 2,000 meters.
Chasing on the plains, there is no point to talk about, the only thing to compete is the speed of both sides.
Watander was injured, his speed was getting slower and slower, and he could only bite Jiajing tightly, but he couldn't close the distance that seemed to be only a few hundred meters.
The two of them have run two or three hundred kilometers unconsciously, and no matter how Jiajing walks or turns, Paderson can chase after him for the first time.
Summoning war beasts and puppets requires energy, many warriors or puppeteers usually put away the war beasts and puppets, so as not to consume energy and lead to a lack of energy in the battle, in fact, in general, even if the war beast has been coming out, it doesn't matter much, people with strong mental power are not as fast as supplementing, but in the case of combat or rapid movement, the energy consumed will increase dozens of times, most warriors or puppeteers can only support about an hour, Jiajing has Pandora's heart to supplement mental power, in order to support such a long time, because dragons don't like to stay in the sealed space for a long time, and often go out for activities, so the dragon knight's spiritual power has also been trained to be very powerful.
After chasing for a long time, the mental power of both sides has reached the limit, and they are very tired, but the two of them dare not take back the red-eyed griffin and the dragon, Jiajing does not know the details of Paderson, afraid that he will take back the red-eyed griffin, and the mental power is insufficient to summon the Pearl Silver Dragon Python and the red-eyed griffin to fight, and then be caught up by the other party, the only thing to rely on is the Grasse giant vine, I am afraid it is not the opponent of Paderson and Watander.
Pardson also didn't know that Jiajing was about to reach his limit, and he was afraid that he would take back the dragon, so he would let the other party escape without a trace, and it would be much more difficult to find him again.
Jiajing didn't dare to slow down at all, and scolded Paderson, a perverted dragon knight, in his heart, that he was just saving someone, and that he was so desperate?
He secretly decided that if his spiritual power could not support it, he would release the Grass Giant Vine, he didn't believe that Paderson didn't have Pandora's heart, and he could still resist the spiritual magic of the white-eyed ghost dragon after supporting it for so long, and he even thought a little viciously about what it would be like if this dragon knight became a puppet controlled by the white-eyed ghost dragon.
After running around for most of the day, Jiajing found that there was a touch of yellow in front of him, which was a large piece of the Loess Plateau, and he knew that he was afraid that he had reached the Loess Plateau in the northwest of the empire.
The Loess Plateau is located in the west of the empire, about three hundred kilometers away from the angel capital, it is the area bordering the great empire of poisonous mud in the west of Athena, the Loess Plateau is very vast, the area is more than five or six times that of the great wasteland outside the Star Picking City, the climate is extremely harsh, there is no rain all year round, some areas are already a piece of yellow sand, the personnel are scarce, the monsters are rampant, and the great wilderness is called the two abandoned places of the empire.
The reason for the great wilderness is that it is close to the sea tribe domain, cut off by the Alps, and bandits are rampant, resulting in a sparse population, which is so desolate, but most of the areas, with mountains, rivers and forests, can still be reclaimed into fertile land. The principle of loess high is that the rain is scarce and the soil is poor, resulting in sparse population, and the reasons why the two become wasteland are completely different.
Fierce beasts are bound to run rampant in inaccessible places, forests and swamps are the same, and the Loess Plateau is no exception.
According to scholars' statistics, the monsters gathered in the Great Wilderness and the Loess Plateau account for more than 70% of the total number of monsters in Athena, of which the Loess Plateau accounts for about half.
Where it is difficult for humans to survive, it has become a paradise for fierce beasts, and Luo Luoya's former war beast, the grass eagle wolf that was devoured by the Zhumu Silver Dragon Python, is one of the powerful magical beasts living on the Loess Plateau.
On the border between the Great Empire of Poison Mud and the Athena Loess Plateau is the famous Cursed Swamp, the SSS mission that ranks high on the mercenary mission list - destroy the mutated three black dragons and obtain the dragon crystals of the three black dragons!
The location of the three black dragons is precisely the Cursed Swamp, and similarly, this Cursed Swamp is also an inaccessible place, more sinister than the environment of the Sunset Swamp, where there are still many humans living in the Sunset Swamp, and the Cursed Swamp is only infested by countless fierce beasts except for the extremely rare natives of the swamp. Therefore, although the Great Empire of Hindu Mud borders Athena, the two sides rarely have any contact, and no war has ever broken out.
Jiajing now ran to such a place by mistake.
