Blood streaked in a graceful arc and scattered to the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Smack. β
The bodies of the two girls fell to the ground almost simultaneously, they looked up at the sky, their beautiful eyes no longer lifeless, and sharp swords pierced their hearts and foreheads, nailing them to the ground. And on their faces, there was still the happy smile on their faces, as if what had just happened was so fast that even they couldn't react.
"Humph......!"
Sidwig snorted, and then she took a light breath before she squeezed the black belt in her hand and tried to retract her sword.
However, she did not succeed.
"Huh?"
The weapons that could have been easily used felt like a thousand pounds of weight this time, and Sidwig couldn't take them back at all, as if they had been bitten by something and couldn't move. What's going on?
At this moment, Sidwig heard exclamations from the crowd.
"Holy grace above, what's going on?!"
For the West soldiers on the Red Fortress, they had just undergone a complete change from heaven to hell, in fact, from the beginning, they didn't have much faith in these two girls. But then the truth was completely unexpectedβthe two girls were able to fend off the attack of the terrible gifted knight together, and even achieved an overwhelming advantage, which immediately reinvigorated the soldiers. After all, they have lost people twice in a row, although the two sisters are not West's soldiers, but now at least they are on the same side as themselves, not to mention that they are so beautiful and cute, so they naturally want to cheer them up.
But just as the soldiers were about to cheer, the situation turned downward, and Sidway's final attack made the soldiers immediately cold from beginning to end, as if they had completely fallen into the cold dark abyss, and they did not know how to react. At this moment, what many people are deep in their hearts is not the depression of failing again, but sadness and indignation. These two little girls, they were so young, they died like this, and they couldn't do anything. This deep sense of powerlessness and sadness dominates their hearts.
This evil Sith man didn't even let go of such a small girl!!
The soldiers cursed indignantly, and even some of the young and vigorous people had raised their longbows, intending to aim at the evil monster, but at this moment, their eyes widened in surprise.
Because, a slender arm was raised.
It was an arm wrapped in white sleeves, and as if in response to some kind of call, on the other side not far away, the arm that had been equally slender and wrapped in black sleeves slowly raised, and then they shook at the same time, as if in confirmation, as if in greetingβand then, with their backhand, grasped the hilt of the long sword that ran through their bodies.
"Holy grace above, what's going on?"
Looking at all this in front of them, some soldiers even shouted out in a lost voice, and many of them were even surprised that they even took off their weapons from the ground, but at the moment, no one cared about such a trivial matter, they just stared at the battlefield under the fortress, staring at the two girls who had been pierced by sharp swords and should have died.
They weren't dead.
The two girls reached out and grasped the hilts of the four long swords, and then pulled them out of their bodies little by little, which was undoubtedly not an easy action since the blades were obviously much longer than their arms. But the two girls were very patient, and little by little they drew their long swords, then reversed their grips, supporting their bodies like crutches, and then stood up leisurely.
β.........οΌοΌβ
Sidwig gritted her teeth, she had sensed that something was wrong, although her eyes couldn't see anything, but she could rely on her sense of touch and hearing to perceive things around her, and now, she naturally sensed the reason.
The two girls weren't dead? No, it couldn't be, she had already stabbed them in the right place! Her hands still had the touch they had just stabbed into the foreheads and hearts of the two girls, so how did they get up?
Sidwi felt a little panicked for the first time, and she twitched her lower fingers slightly, trying to withdraw her sword, but once again failed.
And at this moment, two still sweet voices sounded beside her.
"Big sister, it hurts. β
"Big sister, it hurts. β
Messiah and Semiya held their swords in both hands and casually swept away the blood stains on them, and the wound on their foreheads quickly recovered at the same time, and soon disappeared completely, leaving not even a trace of scarring.
"Attacking the heart and the head at the same time. β
"Very cruel but effective swordsmanship. β
"I've never tasted anything like this. β
"But does it really satisfy us?"
The girls looked at each other and smiled, then laughed like silver bells, and then they raised their hands at the same time.
"So, big sister, it's game over. β
Silver flashes.
Sidwig's face changed slightly, this time she finally chose to retreat, and her petite body flew backwards in a blink of an eye, and at this time, the long sword thrown by the twin sisters followed the trajectory of the coming, slashing through the air freely and quickly, and finally, accurately shooting down into the scabbard behind Sidwig. With the soft sound of "card", the four long swords were sheathed at the same time, and at this moment, Sidwig's body shook slightly, and then stood firmly on the ground.
"So, big sister, do you have time to play together?"
"It's decided, big sister, don't go back?"
I don't know when, but Messiah and Semia leaned together again, just like they had when they first appeared. The difference is that this time, the parasols held by the sisters are not pointing forward, but are placed at their sides, which seems to represent a certain attitude on their part.
β............οΌοΌβ
Hearing this, Sidwig instinctively wanted to say something, she puffed up her chest and puffed up, but in the end she didn't say anything and turned to leave. Seeing her turn away, Messiah and Semiya didn't say much, turned away, and ran in the direction of the right flank line with a grin.
In this scene, the people who watched it were basically a little inexplicable, whether it was West or Sith, they couldn't figure out which one was sung in the end. It was said that Sidwig had won, but the two girls were not dead at all, and it seemed as if they were not even injured, as if they were all right. But to say that Sidwig lost, it doesn't seem to be the case, after all, in the end, both sides seem to have spare strength, and they don't plan to fight again. So who won and who lost this battle, most people don't know very well, after all, the battlefield is too far away from them, except for the high-level and above-level swordsmen, who can see clearly what is happening on the field, the rest of the people are a little unclear. Besides, the previous contest was between a few ups and downs, but at the beginning, the sisters did have the upper hand, but then Sidwig also pulled back the situation, so ......... Should it be considered a tie?
In the end, West's side was also cheered up under the leadership of the officer, after all, no matter what, this was a psychological comfort for them, these two girls could resist Sidway's attack, and they could fight to a draw with the gifted knight! The gifted knight was not invincible! Although this is not the case, but looking at the leisurely appearance of Messiah and Semiya before leaving, it is obvious that they still retain their strength. And that Sidwig left without saying a word, and it was obvious that she was still a little bit behind.
And the Sith Empire, naturally, is not willing to be left behind, although the last game is a little unclear, but after all, Sidwig in front of him has gained an overwhelming advantage over the surname, as for Sidwig's turn to leave in the end -- what's so strange about this? Hasn't this general always had this kind of surname?
Although neither of these arguments can stand up to scrutiny, it doesn't matter, morale is the most important thing, as long as it is enough to make the soldiers feel that they have a chance to win, and whoever will not raise those illogical contradictions at this time will be unlucky.
Facing the cheers of the Sith Empire soldiers, Sidwig walked into the barracks again, and at this moment she had completely returned to her usual appearance, and the heavy restraint once again restrained her body, and her arms were tightly bound. The girl was still pale and cold, and she didn't care about the cheers of the soldiers, but walked into the barracks quietly, and then came to the command tent in the center. And here, Lintillot was already waiting for her. With a soft smile, she reached out and pressed the girl's shoulder, and then Her Royal Highness turned to look at the boiling soldiers.
"Soldiers, we have all seen it, we have all seen the bravery of General Sidwig again, she has won such a dazzling victory by one person, then we will surely win it too! West cannot be an obstacle to us, there is no obstacle in front of us! We will eventually cross them and win our victory!"
With this, Lintillot raised her right hand.
"All for the Sith!"
"All for the Sith!!"
The soldiers cheered again, and then Lintillot smiled softly at them, and then led Sidwig into the command tent.
The tent was not narrowly empty, and upon entering, Lintilott's calm, soft smile immediately faded and was replaced by anxiety and nervousness.
"Sidwig, how's it going?
"Sister-sama...... I ........."
Under Lintilot's questioning, Sidwig reversed her previous cold expression, she gasped a few times, wanting to say something, but in the end it was a mouthful of "wow" spurting blood, and then, the petite body could no longer support it, her legs weakened, and she fell into Lintilott's arms.
"Cheer up! Sidwig! how's it going?"
Hugging the girl's body tightly, Lintillot asked in a nervous and anxious whisper, outside, the cheers of the soldiers could still be vaguely heard, but at this moment, it sounded extremely ironic.
"They...... It's amazing, my sister, ......."
Sidwig gasped and gritted her teeth, in fact, in the previous competition, she was not worth the dark loss. And the final joint collision of the twin sisters, Sidway was not able to dodge, although she had used her true strength at the last moment, but there was still no way to resist the other party's attack, on the surface, the last attack of the sisters seemed to be sent away by Sidway, but only Sidway herself knew that before the two umbrellas were flying, the power they mixed had rushed into her body along the sword body. Those were two domineering powers, if it weren't for Sidwig as a gifted knight, then I am afraid that he would have already turned into a puddle of flesh under the backlog of these two forces, and the subsequent attack also made Sidwig hurt a lot -- the impact of the four long swords inserted back into the sheath was also completely transferred to her, although its strength was not as great as before, but for Sidwig, who had already been injured, this was simply a worse blow.
"They...... 's strength, it's too strong......"
Sidwig gritted her teeth, a hint of displeasure flashed across her face, she never thought she would lose one day, but now, she had to bow her head and admit it.
"I didn't do my best, but in terms of the power released, we were on the same level, but even then, I couldn't withstand their attacks. My sister, their understanding of the power of gifted knights seems to be deeper and more sophisticated than mine, and in a short period of time, I have no way to fight them. Even if you unfold the talent aura, I'm afraid it's hard to predict the outcome or defeat........."
"I see. β
Lintillot nodded and interrupted Sidwig's narration, she was also a gifted knight, so she was able to see through the entire battle and Sidwig's injuries. At this time, it was obviously not a good time to say this, so she didn't say anything more, but picked up the girl's body, placed it on the sofa in the command tent steadily, and then covered her with a blanket, and then sighed softly.
"How long will it take you to recover?"
"It takes three to five days at the shortest. β
Sidwig had a bitter expression on her face.
"They didn't hurt me, so I just needed a little time to recuperate and recover...... But my sister, I think they ...... It seems to have been done on purpose. β
"I know. β
Lintillot smiled softly, stroked Sidwig's hair, and replied softly.
"But now, this is not the time to deal with this, Sidwig, you have to rest, and as for the outside affairs, just leave it to me. β
"Yes......... Sister-sama. β
Sidwig nodded slightly at Lintilott's words, but said nothing more, and after a few moments, she fell into a deep sleep.
"Hoo ........."
Looking at the girl in front of her with helplessness and affection, Lintilott let out a sigh of relief, and then she stood up and walked out. At this time, her face became serious again, and she returned to the posture of a field commander.
"Tell me to go down and stay put, I'm going to discuss the next arrangements and battle with Sidwig, and don't disturb us if there's nothing to do. β
"Yes, Your Highness. β
After giving orders to her attendants, Lintillot returned to her tent, and she frowned as she looked at the sleeping Sidwig.
Lintillot has never had an intuitive understanding of what kind of strength the legendary Knights of the Last Yan has, but now, she finally understands the strength of the other party. Kahlan cast his aura of talent, but he was still injured in front of the other party and fled. Sidwig, though not yet able to exert her full strength, was also severely injured. It can be seen that the strength of the other party is obviously far superior to that of himself and others, but ...... After all, war is not the preserve of one or two people, but ............ Lintillot gritted her teeth, and then, she walked over to the table and pulled out a piece of information from the royal city.
"Hope............ Just in time. β
She stared at the contents and muttered to herself.
"Brother!"
"Daddy!"
With two brisk calls, Messiah and Semia laughed and threw themselves into Yuren's arms, they hugged Yuren's body left and right, and the two little heads kept rubbing against Yuren's chest, as if they were some kind of small animal.
"Did you see what we were doing?"
"We're doing a great job. β
"That big sister is angry. β
But she still can't say. β
"Of course I did. β
Yulian smiled and reached out and stroked their hair and heads.
"You're doing just as well, Messiah, Semia, and I'm the proudest child. β
"Hee-hee-hee......"
"Whirring ......"
Hearing this, the sisters narrowed their eyes happily and let out a soft, light laugh.
"So, how long does our young lady need to stay in bed?"
"In terms of her strength, at least three to five days. β
"Seven or eight days at most is inevitable. β
"Well done. β
Hearing this, the corners of Yu Lian's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile.
"So, our mission is accomplished, let's ............"
"My lord, what are you going to do next?", Ofaril asked curiously as she stood next to her, but a faint smile appeared on her face.
"Hmm......... Next ............"
In the face of O'Faryl's question, Yuren frowned and opened his mouth, but he didn't answer O'Faryl's question immediately, but instead looked at Charlotte, who was walking this way.
"Charlotte, what's wrong?"
"Master, there is important information. β
Charlotte held a crystal that shone with magical brilliance in one hand and reported quietly.
"According to the information from the Twilight Forest, His Majesty King West V, with 30,000 Praetorian Guards, is currently advancing in the direction of the Twilight Forest along the Golden Trade Route. β
