Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Magic Apprentice
brush, Meng Han could almost hear the sound of his cold sweat shooting out of his pores, and then his body was pulled and pulled behind the battlements, and Meng Han came back to his senses.
"My lord, my lord!" Qiao's voice seemed so distant, but it was so close, Meng Han was dull for a while, and then slowly returned to normal. At that moment, it was like a dream.
The scene just now almost put me on the line of life and death. Meng Han had never been so close to death, and when the arrow magnified in front of his eyes, Meng Han even saw the shadow of black and white impermanence.
"Bah, bah, this world is dominated by death, where did the bull head and horse face come from and the black and white impermanence!" As soon as Meng Han's brain was active, he immediately rejected the idea he had just made, and at the same time, he was glad after a secret palpitation in his heart: "No wonder the bull head and horse face don't accept me, it turns out that this place is not under their control." ”
What was that red light and vague shadow? Only then did Meng Han have time to think back to the question just now, but the noise that came from the city to Meng Han's ears once again attracted Meng Han's attention.
After jumping over the first rejection at high speed, the sand thieves had no time to restrain their horses, and watched their mounts jump in front of the second rejection, and then jumped into the deep ditch with men and horses in the eyes of everyone on the city wall. Immediately afterward, bows and arrows rained down on the walls.
Only a few men were able to restrain their horses in time, including the leader of the sand bandits. As soon as he saw a layer of red light appear in front of the nobleman, he realized that something was wrong. That's the light of magic, and there are magicians in this town!
After discovering this, the leader suddenly felt that his decision to attack the town with men and horses might be a mistake. It's just that it's too late to find out at this time. All the leader could do was shout loudly and tell his men to back off. Obviously, the subordinates have already begun to jump over the first rejection at this moment.
Drawing his bow again, the leader anxiously searched for a target on the city wall that could be shot, but unexpectedly, his movements had been clearly seen by Meng Han.
Looking at the leader of the sand thieves who almost killed him with an arrow, Meng Han's eyes lit up, and a spell of the earth stabbing technique was quickly recited, and with a wave of the staff, a long ground thorn suddenly appeared under the leader's horse's belly.
Whoosh, an arrow from the leader shot at Meng Han's body that had just been exposed, but this time Meng Han never made the mistake he had just made, and as soon as the ground stabbing technique was issued, he hid behind the battlements. The arrow flew across Meng Han's cheek and landed into the town.
Just as he was about to draw another arrow, the leader of the sand thieves suddenly felt a sharp pain beneath him. Before he could figure out what was going on, the horse that sat down had collapsed limply, and the leader's body was similarly lowered.
Sharp ground spikes pierced through the horse's belly, penetrating the horse's body, and piercing deep into the body of the leader of the sand thieves. The intense pain caused the leader of the sand thieves to convulse, but he was immobilized by his spikes. He wanted to move his arms, but he was pulled by severe pain and couldn't do so, so he could only keep a riding posture with his mount, quietly waiting for death to come.
Whoosh, the arrows of the elf brothers on the city wall were like the impermanence of life, and the few sand thieves who were lucky enough to strangle their mounts and did not jump into the rejection of the horse landed like dumplings, and everyone had an arrow stuck deep in their hearts.
Seeing that the situation was not good, four riders had already run wildly in advance. After a few moments, and by the time the elven brothers had left a few others, the four sand thieves had escaped beyond the range of their bows and arrows. Although the elf brothers are accurate in archery, they can only sigh in sight.
In the deep ditch under the city walls, it was impossible for the sand thieves to escape. Jumping from a height, most of the mounts have broken their legs, and many people have been injured, not to mention counterattacks, even if they can stand up, they are lucky.
The trapped sand thieves are being shot by civilians with bows and arrows like live targets. There was even a man surnamed Pingming, who had no bow and arrow, and threw down the stones and some unused big logs that were dug up when digging deep trenches.
"Ran four!" Joe said with regret as he watched from the city wall.
As soon as he finished saying this, two figures suddenly appeared next to the four sand thieves who were running away frantically. The figure was unusually vigorous, and with a shake, he jumped on the back of the two sand thieves, and then, the two sand thieves fell off the horses that were galloping at high speed, rolled a few times, and never moved again.
"Well done!" Meng Han also saw this scene and shouted happily again. With his words, the other two sand thieves were also cleanly killed by the two figures and fell to the ground within the time of this sentence.
"Everyone, stop!" Joe ordered loudly, and the crowd on the city wall was playing happily, as if they had not yet heard Joe's order clearly, until Joe shouted the third time, and everyone slowly stopped.
"All the guards, go down with your weapons and check them. Joe then ordered: "If you don't die, make up for a sword, and the elf brothers are on guard with bows and arrows!"
"What is this for?" Meng Han didn't understand Qiao's intentions and asked curiously.
"Let our Guards see the blood with their own hands. Qiao only explained, but Meng Han immediately understood, nodded, and didn't ask anything more.
The battle was decided, and it seemed that there were no casualties on our side except for two or three unfortunate fellows who were wounded under the bow and arrow attacks of the sand pirates. Not one of the more than 200 sand thieves who came to commit it, including their leader, fled. The simplicity of the battle made people feel incredible, as if the sand thieves were like stupid fools, and they fell headlong into the trap set by Meng Han, and there was no room for struggle.
"It's simple, my lord, they're just sand thieves, not regular soldiers! Joe reiterated this point again, and took the members of the guard down into the deep ditch to let them see the world.
Above the city wall, there was already a long-lasting cheer.
At this moment, Meng Han was wondering what the red light and the blurred shadow that appeared in front of his eyes when the arrow of the sand thief leader came over just now.
It was magic, Meng Han was almost certain that there was no such light in the others, and in retrospect now, the red light was very much like a fire-based magic shield, and the vague shadow was a qi-based magic shield. Are there still magicians in their own territory? or are they those of Wright's magicians who jump out to protect themselves at critical moments? Or are they the people who the elves secretly protect?
Turning his head, Meng Han found that the two little maids were tired, and his heart suddenly moved. They looked exactly like they had exhausted their magic and spiritual power, could it be that the two magic shields just now were released by them?
Fire system, air system, isn't this the magic that the little witch of the elf clan told her about two days ago? I remember that Demi wrote down the explanation of fire magic, and Diana wrote down the explanation of air magic. Now it seems that it is no coincidence that they were able to memorize what was explained at that time.
"Demi, Diana, did you send out the magic shield just now?" After Meng Han understood this, he immediately asked his two little maids excitedly.
Although the two girls were tired, their spirits were very uplifted, and the smiles on their faces made people feel that they had done something great. When Meng Han asked, the two little girls nodded busily.
"Thank you!" Meng Han's question was confirmed, and the happiness in his heart was incomparable, but he was not so out of shape at the moment, just smiled and looked at the two personal maids, and said thank you softly.
The two women shook their hands with happy smiles on their faces. It was their long-awaited wish to do something for the lord, and it seemed that it had finally come true just now, saving the lord's life from the arrows of the murderous sand thief leader. It seems that they are happier to be able to do this than to save their own lives.
"Silly boy, you have learned magic, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Although Meng Han's words were full of complaints, anyone could hear them from the tone, it was a happy complaint, as if he was proudly blamed after seeing his child do something great.
Demi and Diana just laughed, laughing so happily and so satisfied. The moment the arrow flew in, they didn't even think about it, and directly blessed Meng Han's body with the magic shield they could send. At that time, they didn't even care about their own safety, as long as the lord was safe, it was their greatest happiness.
"Let's go, let's go back and meditate and rest!" Meng Han was really happy today, the resentment of being oppressed and humiliated by the elf clan seemed to be vented most of it with the result of a ground assassination technique against the leader of the sand thieves. The rest is overshadowed by the ecstasy of knowing that Demi and Diana can practice magic. Even the sand thieves who came to be wiped out did not make him happy.
Hearing the cheers of everyone on the city wall, the old, weak, sick and disabled people hiding in the town had secretly poked their heads out at this moment, looking out suspiciously, waiting for the news from the city wall. When they learned that the sand thieves had been wiped out and none of them had died, all the people shouted for joy, and the small yellow sand town immediately turned into a boiling ocean.
"Do you know, Grace, Alice!" Meng Han excitedly shouted at his two housekeepers, "Our little Demi and little Diana have become two magic apprentices!"
