Feder dreamed of his father, Faulkner, in a brief coma. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The other party didn't say a word, but looked at his eyes with concern, but this concerned look was hidden behind a serious, harsh face. In addition to his own father, he also has his own blacksmith Enlightenment Master Guimont. Although Master Guimon was only an old blacksmith, he taught himself many different ways to use weapons, and those actions of throwing the long sword in his hand were not allowed by knights, but Guimon reminded himself again and again that sometimes knowing how to throw weapons in his hand is another method of attack.
Master Gimon touched Fidel's hair in a dream, and Feder found himself returning to his childhood in the dream. At that time, he was still very short, and Master Gimon liked to greet Fede in this way.
When Fed woke up, he didn't immediately look at the subordinates around him, but clearly remembered some of the words that Master Giemon had said to himself when he was a child—"Your father's black armor has several layers of enchantment, and when you can communicate with it, maybe you will be able to unlock the power that I have sealed, if you can." ”
The first person Fidel saw after opening his eyes was Noor, and the other party's expression changed from confused to excited, and then shouted: "The regiment commander is awake!"
Everyone else also gathered, including Jasmine, the leader of the Mulihua Mercenary Regiment, who was resting in the back alley just now.
Fed listened to the rain outside, and he found himself being carried into a house, still wet. In addition to Nur, Ayana had also recovered, and she held the moon shield in her arms and quietly watched as Fid sat up. Only then did Fide remember that at the last moment, he chose to throw the moon shield out to block Carlos' fatal blow to Ayana, and Matthews...
"Captain Fed, Matthews—" Noor stopped talking, but Squad Leader Leonard continued.
"Squadron Leader Matthews has been killed, and Captain Marcus is standing next to his brother's corpse, looking very sad," Leonard pointed out the window, and the one-eyed captain was holding his brother's corpse, not leaving an inch in the rain, "I've been there since now, not saying a word, fortunately there is no enemy, otherwise..."
The others also told Fei De that everyone had experienced a brief period of dizziness and nausea just now, but Fei and Ayana, who rushed to the front, were the most severely affected, which also caused Fei and Ayana to fall into a coma. It's just that Fid was only in a coma for about ten minutes, and Ayana woke up earlier.
Several knights of the Lightning Knights and the head of Carlos had already died, and Noor also picked up the big sword, he said that this big sword must be enchanted, and he now has two enchanted weapons on his back, both of which are very heavy weapons, and the weight has increased greatly.
"Is there any enemy movement?" asked Fed, standing up and putting the "silence" back on his waist.
"No, but it seems that more and more defenders of the Theoguna Empire have appeared, probably related to those lightning bolts outside. Noor told Fid that he had just climbed onto the roof and seen with his own eyes that the invading forces of the East Oguna Empire who were walking together had been struck by lightning, and it was not a coincidence, but many times. Of course, he couldn't explain what it was, but those lightning strikes seemed to be looking for targets, and they wouldn't hurt the defenders of the Theoguna Empire at all, so the battle situation in Doret City might have changed now.
"Captain, are we still going after that Saresa?" Leonard asked.
"Captain Fidd, with all due respect, I guess the commanders of the East Oguna Empire have already stormed the inner city," Commander Jasmine said, standing aside, "If we catch up, we may be mistaken for an enemy invading the inner city, and the inner city will also have its own defenses, so let's forget it." ”
Commander Ahei also said: "Now that even the thunder and lightning are helping us, it is estimated that we will win this battle! If we bring back the corpse of Carlos, the leader of the Lightning Knight and the son of the prime minister, it is estimated that we will also be able to get a good reward, as if there is really no need to pursue it." ”
Fed ignored them, and he walked out of the small room alone, and Marcus, who had his head down, glanced back at Fed.
Fett slowly walked to Marcus's side, who was still hugging Matthews, who was already cold. Matthews' brain was battered, blood and brain plasma were mixed together, and the coagulated liquid was slowly washed away by the rain. Although Carlos' body has been removed, Matthews' action of holding Carlos before his death has not changed, and Marcus is now "in place" of Carlos and is held by Matthews's corpse.
"Deputy Commander, this is the fate of the mercenaries, and my younger brother died a well-deserved death in order to protect his comrades. His tone was cold, making Fidel feel that it was not raining now, but snowing.
"Marcus..."
Marcus said nothing, he quietly carried his brother's corpse on his shoulder, and then insisted on carrying his brother's big axe and his own war hammer in two hands. Such a weight was much heavier than Noor's, but Marcus did not complain, just walked back silently.
Fidel didn't stop him, and he watched as Marcus slowly walked in the direction of the city wall, presumably moving towards the area defended by the Potato Mercenary Regiment. And the rain became lighter, with only a few drops falling on Fed's cheeks - was it a broken promise to promise Marcus to save the Potato Mercenary Corps, only to lose Matthews first?
Ayana walked over to Fidel's side despite Noor's stopping, her soaked hair similar to the one who had infiltrated the Papal State castle at night, only this time her eyes were less stubborn and a little embarrassed.
"Don't thank me, I just reacted instinctively. Fei knew what Ayana was trying to say, but he also knew that Ayana wasn't good at words.
Ayana nodded, and she offered the moon shield in both hands. After Fidel put the shield back on his waist, he gathered all his subordinates and decided to take Carlos's corpse and the Blue Widow's corpse back to the city wall to learn about the current situation in the city before making the next step - the Potato Mercenary Regiment had completed their task as a mercenary group, and it was exceeded.
At the same time, on the high platform of the city wall, Reese, the leader of the widow mercenary group, had already taken out a bright red crossbow arrow and put it on top of the delicate crossbow machine. Avi remembered that fifteen years ago, a similar item had appeared in the cave and tomb, but the man hiding in the shadows had only pulled out a wooden crossbow that was suspected to be an enchanted weapon, this time the crossbow and the crossbow arrows were both blood-red, and there was definitely a difference between the two.
And Golia, who had been keeping her eyes closed, opened her eyes at this time and looked in the direction of Reese, the leader of the widow mercenary group! The white-robed boy beside her, Ji'er, and Carrie all stood in front of Golia, and the iron-masked hunchbacked man who had disappeared for a while also returned to the high platform, and he saw the blood-red wooden crossbow aimed at Golia, he was taken aback at first, and then immediately reached out to his chest. It's just that Ji'er, who was standing on the side, stretched out her hand to stop him and told him to stand away a little.
At this time, the white-robed young man raised his hands, then closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then created a silver-white "wall" visible to the naked eye out of thin air in the air! The white-robed young man's eyes were firm and there was an indescribable feeling, which made Avi, who was a hundred meters away, feel a sense of awe, as if the other party was a real god, and now he was only using the power of a god.
No one could explain why, maybe it was transfiguration magic, or spirit magic, but even Reese, the leader of the widow mercenary group, was stunned for a moment, and the fingers that were already fastened to the crossbow slowly loosened.
Avi saw Gomon say something loudly to Reese, and the leader of the widow's mercenary group just shook his head and took a few steps back.
The other mercenaries of the widow's mercenary group all took out their crossbow arrows and shot them in the direction of Goliath. But this time she was unexpectedly able to penetrate the magic wall! Carrie drew a dagger and stood beside Golia, knocking away the arrows that were shot at Golia, while Ji'er kept shooting tongues of fire, the fire magic had a very limited range to hit the archers, and the hunchbacked man used his back to block the white-robed young man's body, his back was as hard as steel, and the crossbow arrows were bounced away.
Saint Goliath closed her eyes and continued to chant the incantation, and the lightning strikes in the sky became more and more dense, and a few drops of sweat flowed from Golia's forehead.
"If this continues, all the troops on our side will be killed by lightning!" Bignose Van took Avi's hand, although his eyes were fixed on Carrie, he still wanted to leave the city first, "No, I don't belong to the side of the East Oguna Empire either." ”
Avi noticed that the middle-aged mercenary Gomon walked over to the corpses of Jang and Sepra, and then carried the two corpses to the back of the widow mercenary group. Only then did Avi realize that the bad smell that had been permeating Gemen's body before was not only because he didn't take a bath, but also because it was the stench of rotting corpses!
Girl Twelve drew her bow and aimed it at Carrie - she saw Avi and Fan staring at the black-haired girl, perhaps that was why Avi was reluctant to follow her out of here.
The arrow flew out, and Carrie tried to dodge, but she couldn't prevent the enchanted longbow from tracking her, and she was still hit by the arrow in the abdomen! Avi and Fan both shouted, but Carrie gritted her teeth and pulled out the arrow, continuing to wield the dagger to resist the crossbow arrows fired by the mercenary.
"Don't hurt her!" Avi pushed away the second arrow that Twelve was about to shoot, but Twelve ignored Avi and shot the second arrow at Carrie!
At this time, a hidden weapon flew out of nowhere and hit the arrow.
The others might not have noticed, but Avi could see clearly - it was the secret weapon that Felisty had used in the house.
