Chapter 7: The Enemy of a Nation
Steep terrain and surrounded by mountains, the natural barrier that the kingdom of Tarun had relied on since its founding became a prison that trapped them in the royal capital. www.biquge.info there was only one mountain pass on the way to the interior, and Luthor clearly understood that King Ryan wanted to escape, and that was the way to go.
Thinking on his toes, Luther would have laid a net at the mountain pass.
No one in the hall spoke, and even the chief of the guard looked miserable. In this situation, although he was already determined to die, there was only a limit to what he could do, and at most he could only hold Luthor back for the time being, allowing King Ryan to escape as much distance as possible.
As for what crisis awaited them in Yamaguchi, he really couldn't predict it. However, without their protection, it is still a question how far King Ryan can go with his wife and daughter. Even though he is also a knight of the Silver Emblem, there is still a big gap between his strength and Luther's.
Everyone knows that the chief knight Luther is the strongest knight in the Kingdom of Talon.
Finally, Ryan shook his head: "No, if you follow your plan, even if we are lucky enough to reach the mountain pass, we will not be able to escape." ”
"But Your Majesty, now there is only one way to try!"
The head of the guard couldn't help but glance at Lin Qiu, who had found a pillar to sit down leisurely, and he could only pin his last hope on this young man who couldn't see the depth clearly. However, judging from Karen's description, ordinary soldiers are not his opponents at all, and when they encounter a lone knight, they are completely capable of fighting.
"No, there's another option. There are only two Silver Emblem Knights in this small country, and if Luther is here to deal with me, then whoever he has at the pass will not be your opponent. ”
Hearing this, Vincent froze in place.
Due to the fact that it was established not long ago, the kingdom of Tarun did not have the slightest background, and some powerful knights were not willing to come to serve in this small country at all, so for more than ten years, there were only two knights with silver emblems.
Indeed, if King Ryan dragged Luther here, he would be able to break out of the siege with the queen and princess. But the price of this plan is King Ryan's life! If King Ryan falls into the hands of Luther, the latter will never think of his old feelings and let him live.
The price to pay for the life of a king is too great!
"Father, I'm not leaving!"
Leah grabbed Ryan's hand and pleaded.
"Your Majesty!"
Vincent's guards also fell to their knees. It was a dilemma to choose between abandoning chivalry and fleeing with the king's family, or staying and all of them dying in battle.
"I've already escaped from the battlefield once. ”
Ryan looked at the closed door of the temple, and secretly lost his mind, and outside the temple door, stood Luther and the most elite soldiers of the kingdom.
Time seemed to go back to more than ten years ago, and he hastily fled into the mountains under the cover of Luther's escort.
And in order for them to escape, the dead warriors consisting of ten knights blocked the mountain pass.
Among them was his most powerful knight, Joseph, the only royal knight under his command. The price of their escape was that Joseph and the others remained in that mountain pass forever.
By the time he had finished repairing and led his men back to the mountain pass, it was already more than a month later.
The two sides of the mountain pass were covered with blood stains that had dried up for a long time, and Joseph and the others had killed many enemies, but in short, the mountain road was full of corpses, and even the ground was stained dark red. The corpses of the dead and the enemy were mixed together, and each corpse had been turned beyond recognition by a month of wind and sun.
He couldn't even recognize Joseph's body.
If Joseph had been alive, his current situation would not have been so difficult.
Ryan thought.
"Fire attack. ”
Suddenly, Luther's high-pitched voice was heard outside the main hall.
He finally lost his patience, and he and Ryan were in a stalemate for most of the night, and the nobles sent to take Princess Leah captive were in vain. If it wasn't a last resort, he really didn't want to ruin this splendid hall.
However, the main hall can be rebuilt after it burns down, as long as he becomes the new king, he can build as many halls as he wants.
The soldiers moved out of the way, and a line of archers appeared outside the temple, their bows and arrows stained with flames, and at Luther's command, these sharp arrows would be fired towards the main hall.
- You're at the end of your rope, Your Majesty Ryan.
A smile on Luther's face appeared on the owl's face, he had been waiting for this day for so long.
"Take the princess and queen away, as long as I live, I will be the only king of the kingdom of Talen!
Ryan shouted at Vincent, who hesitated for a moment, then finally lowered his head, picked up Leah, and gestured to the other guards to retreat, and the nine guards retreated to the back door in an orderly manner.
"Woo...... Let go of me!...... Woo, didn't you say that there would be a knight from the sky to save us?...... Woo, you're a liar! The stories you tell are all lies!"
Leya in Vincent's arms cried out to Lin Qiu on the side while beating his arm.
"Why, won't you come with us?"
When Vincent passed by, he glanced at Lin Qiu, who was still sitting on the ground, in surprise.
In fact, since Lin Qiu entered the main hall, he had been thinking about ways to repel these five hundred people, although he had absolute confidence to defeat Lu Thor in a solo fight, but with Lu Ther'er's insidiousness, I am afraid that he would not fight alone with him at all.
He was not sure that he would fight five hundred men alone, not to mention that even if he won the five hundred, if nearly 10,000 soldiers outside the city swarmed up, it would not only be the king's family, but even he himself would have to give curry.
"Shoot the arrows!"
With Luther's order outside the hall, the surrounding temperature rose sharply, and a wave of heat suddenly roared towards the hall like a roaring beast.
Lin Qiu got up and rubbed Liya's blonde hair as usual dotingly.
"This is the last story I will tell you, Your Highness the Princess. This is the story -- the ...... of the stories I told you before."
Lin Qiu paused deliberately.
Liya stopped crying and stared at Lin Qiu with her ruby eyes widening.
"None of them are real except for the last one!"
Rows of unstoppable rockets rose up, and the night sky of the royal capital was suddenly lit up by rockets, and even the bright moon seemed to be dyed the color of flames.
Lin Qiu had to sigh for the second time that this Luthor was really going to make trouble.
He racked his brains and couldn't think of a quick way to repel the five hundred, but Luthor sent it to the door himself—all the rockets that rose in the rows would become his reinforcements!
In this regard, Lin Qiu could only say - damn, mentally retarded!
Luther's smile widened as she looked at the still golden temple gates. When the rain of arrows falls, when all the dust settles, before the sun rises, he, Luther, will replace Ryan as the new king of the kingdom of Talon!
Suddenly, a change occurred.
The closed door of the temple was pushed open, and a young man stood at the door of the temple that he had not expected, and he was also present for the interview that day. In order to prevent his plans from being interfered with as much as possible, he specially suggested that King Ryan choose this useless boy to become Leah's teacher.
However, at this moment, the young man had a wicked smile on his face that made his heart palpitate.
In the next second, Lin Qiu raised his hand. The warm current in his body was surging towards his heart.
Grandpa once said that where the heart is, is where the mark is, and as long as the knight's heart beats for a second, the mark will never fade.
"Your Majesty, I'm messing with a country because of you!"
Lin Qiu shouted loudly.
The rain of arrows in the night sky suddenly stopped, as if they had heard some kind of command.
Then Luthor saw what he would never forget—the burning rockets suddenly turned around and fell rapidly towards their location!
The screams around her made Luthor a little dazed.
- He must be dreaming!
-- How can there be any reason to turn back from the arrows that are shot?
"So in a moment, you must talk to me about the remuneration in detail!"
Almost at the same time, Lin Qiu toed a little and concentrated all the power of the engraving on his right foot, and his whole body flew in the direction of Lu Thor like a bomb, not giving Lu Thor the slightest chance to react.
Luther's pupils shrank, and the young man who was still at the entrance of the hall appeared in front of him in an instant. The boy raised his right fist in the air, and soon filled his entire gaze.
Grandpa once told Tyre that it was best not to fight with the children down the hill. But if you do fight, you have to knock them down with one punch, don't give them a chance to resist!
Lin Qiu felt that what his grandfather said was very reasonable.
So he put all his strength into his right fist.
"Boom-"
After the loud bang, the hall was suddenly covered in a thick fog, and the soldiers standing beside Luthor suddenly felt short, and when they reacted, a huge crater had already appeared under their feet.
The shocking scene is still vivid in my mind at this moment - being hit head-on by a punch......
They looked at the huge pit under their feet and did not dare to continue thinking about it.
