Chapter 214: The Beginning

The sea breeze mixed with the rotten smell of the swamp came to the face, and into the nostrils was a heavy, gloomy and decaying shrub-like smell, which felt like inhaling the organic matter volatilized from the maggots that had rotted next to the corpse, which was very unpleasant.

"Where is this?" asked Lear, with an irritated wave of his palm at the end of his nose, to Landrig behind him.

"The Sea of Death west of Tatagalia, a hundred nautical miles to the east, we can land on the coast east of Mudstone City. ”

"Mudstone City?"

Lear sighed a little that after escaping from Palofodi three years ago, his journey began here, and now everything is back to square one, but he is no longer the immature teenager he was at the beginning.

"Knock knock knock!"

There were five loud bangs, and the huge splash of water that was stirred up in an instant was like a violent storm, churning the originally dead sea to pieces.

Five warships as large as the Immortal appeared above the surface of the sea, and lined up in a straight line in the sea behind the Immortal at great speed.

The Celestial, Aquaman, Maniac, Prophet, and Oracle are the captains of Peterley, Rinis, Landrig, Sylvia, and Galen, respectively.

Because Landrig was on Lear's ship, his first mate temporarily took over as captain, and after the trip to Fish-Man Island, the two pirates, Peterley and Rinis, had not yet pledged their allegiance to Lear, but the basic affairs had been left to his own discretion.

"Let's go, Mudstone. ”

Lear gave the order to move forward, and he remembered that in Tartaglia there seemed to be an account that had not yet been settled.

The direct landing of thousands of troops on the east bank immediately attracted the attention of the defenders of Mudstone, although Tanan took away part of the strategic garrison of Tartaglia in the early stage, but with the arrival of West after vigorously recruiting evil swamp witches and beast trainers into the army, and capturing a large number of lizards, bison and bipedal wyverns from the depths of the swamp, the originally empty defense force was quickly replenished.

Otherwise, West would not be able to continue to maintain his rule with an iron fist.

No sooner had Lear's army assembled on the beach than he received a not-so-friendly welcome from the swamp army.

"Go back where you came from, you are not welcome in Tartaglia, filthy humans!"

A dozen venomous feathered arrows landed at Lear's feet, the arrows that dug deep into the sand still expressing the hostility of the guardians with their trembling tail feathers, and in the swamp at the front of the beach, thousands of lizards and werewolves lined up in horizontal rows, and behind them, a dense herd of lizards and bison that snorted.

The leader was a female werewolf with a black nose and red eyes, several white bone rings hanging from the ears of the beast, and a horizontal eye depicted on her forehead with the blood of an unknown beast, but the canine tooth necklace around her neck made her look more like a hyena than an intelligent life.

I have to say that the speed of the Tatarian defense is still quite good, and the posture is sufficient, but the effect will have to be tried to know.

Lear took a step forward, stomping the arrows under his feet, and then took another step forward, crossing the cordon of a dozen arrows, but instead of taking the third step, he raised his head and looked at the female werewolf indifferently.

The meaning is self-evident.

"Kill them!" roth cried out in a rage, the voice as hoarse as if a bucket of ice water had been forcibly poured into the boiling iron slurry, and her unspeakably ugly beastly face.

Hundreds of lizardmen raised their bows and arrows in the air, ready for the first round of projectiles, but strangely they found that no one but themselves did not move, instead staring blankly behind the intruder.

A tall figure appeared behind Lear, and if anyone had no idea about the word Iron Will before that, just looking at that face would have carved these two words into their hearts, and they would never be forgotten again.

Full of tiger stripes, full of tiger stripes, that is the oldest tradition of the swamp people, only a true warrior is qualified to obtain, a steel armor that is twice as wide and twice as thick as a normal person, revealing his majestic body, and the bare knotted arms are covered with green tendons and scars, and the colorful tiger tattoos converge into an epic picture of courage and arrogance.

"General Tuze!" exclaimed someone behind Rose.

Some people were born for war, they shed their blood on the battlefield, and they insisted on their faith and courage in the endless sea of corpses and blood, and they won the respect of everyone for this.

Even if the first thing West did after coming to power was to declare Tuze a rebel, those who really knew the truth all had deep sympathy for his plight, and the soldiers at the bottom worshipped him as a banner.

Therefore, when these Tatarians saw Tuze appear behind the enemy, they forgot for a moment to attack.

"My lord, please be merciful. Tuze propped himself on the ground with one fist and knelt down solemnly.

Having participated in the battle of Spartacus, he knew very well how terrifying the young man in front of him was, and if these swamp warriors really angered him, they would be no different from the dogs.

Not to mention the thousands of warriors and six Hades-class warships behind him.

But these are Tataglia's precious warriors, and in this situation, Tuze doesn't want to see them die tragically in this senseless internal strife, so he has come to ask Lear to give him a chance.

"What are you fools trying to rebel against with this rebel, do you want your Mudstone family to be buried with you!" Rose's roar of bursting charcoal in the bellows rang out again, apparently the lack of execution of the order had touched her true fire.

When many swamp warriors heard this, there was a commotion, but in desperation, they still raised their weapons and pointed at Lear and the others.

"It seems that these people don't want to take your affection. Lear looked down at Tuze beside him.

Tuze was silent and did not get up.

"Hey, go ahead, come back if you can't solve it, some things are not your fault, and there is no need to force it. ”

"Master Xie. ”

Tuze stood, and as he walked towards Rosko, he pulled out the hammer from his waist. "In honor of the ancestors, I hereby ask you to fight a duel, and if I win, I will let you go, but you will liberate these warriors and their families in Mudstone, and if I lose, I will ask your lord to withdraw from the army. ”

He stood before the dividing line between the sand and the swamp, the junction of yellow and green like a moat that divided life and death.

"Hahaha, I heard before that there was a man named Tuze who was so brave, it turned out to be a fool, do you think the battlefield is a child's game?

Before Ross could laugh wildly, several terrifying bolts of lightning fell on her, and the heat brought by the terrifying current instantly melted several large holes in the ground, and the scorched shrubs kept emitting white smoke.

"You'd better not feel like you're qualified to say no, because I don't have a lot of patience. Lear withdrew his outstretched arm and said coldly.

"You!" Rose turned pale in an instant.

Although she is also a witch, she didn't react at all the moment the lightning fell just now, which means that in terms of spell casting ability, the other party is at least a few levels higher than her.

If the enemy had tried to kill her, she would have been a charred corpse by now.

"I promise you a duel. Rose flipped off her horse and drew her hammer, a weapon used by swamp warriors, and although she was a witch, she was first and foremost a werewolf, and there was no werewolf who was not good at fighting.

What's more, Tu Ze also said just now that even if she loses, she will be let go, and saving her life in this situation is the wisest choice.

As for the thousands of soldiers, just throw it away, with the current situation, West is afraid that he will have a bit of a hard time to suffer, and whether he can sit on the throne in the end is a matter of two words, why should he be stupid to follow him and die.

"Holy Spirit Blessing!" "Attack accelerated!"

After casting two blessing spells on himself in a row, Rose suddenly attacked without warning.
