Chapter 232: The Power of Suppression
readx;
The headquarters of the Holy Liberty Alliance is located deep in the mountains of the territory, and although it claims to be its headquarters, it does not seem to be much different from the den inhabited by the bandits, except for its slightly larger scale. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"What a messy bunch of guys. β
Looking at the chaotic scene in the cottage not far away, Yulian smiled and whispered to himself, behind the wooden fence, those who called themselves the rebels had no image at the moment, they were sitting around the fire, drinking wine and munching on cooked meat, and on the outskirts of the outposts, the rebel flags were fluttering in the wind. And even the sentries who were in charge of monitoring and patrolling on the watchtower had a leisurely face, looking at their appearance, they were more concerned about the banquet in the courtyard than about the dangers that might arise outside.
If it weren't for the fact that this group of guys was really just a rabble, then Yulian would even wonder if they had deliberately arranged some traps, after all, not to mention the failure of their attack on the city before, the commander was killed by Farien, and most of those deserters also fled back, with Yulian's thoughts, no matter how incompetent he was, there should always be some measures in the face of this extraordinary situation. But now, it seems, the rebels don't seem to care at all, as if they don't care what happens. Or is someone blocking the message?
"I think they're a little too disorganized, too. β
O'Faryl seems to have made the same assessment as Yuren.
"So, sir, what should I do?"
"According to the original plan, I will be in charge of chasing the ducks, and Messiah and Semiya will be in charge of joining the siege, and your task will be the same as before, once the Wizard Knights reappear, then be responsible for stopping them. Got it?"
"Yes, sir. β
Hearing Yuren's order, Ofariel quickly nodded. At the same time, she subconsciously raised her head and looked ahead -- after the previous defeat, O'Faryl had already conducted countless self-examinations and deductions, and she recalled what happened at that time again and again, and every time she recalled, she would gain something new. After all, Ofaril has too little actual combat experience, and he has never had the experience of fighting to the death with a master. And this time, she not only fought against a talented knight, but was even defeated and killed by the other party by an overwhelming surname, although for ordinary people, this is already the end of life, and I am afraid that she will go to the grave before she has time to do anything to sum up her experience. But fortunately, Ofaril is not an ordinary person, so even if she is killed, there is always time for her to summarize her experience.
And a lot.
When Ofariel withdrew her gaze, with the faint sound of grass, Julien and the twin sisters were gone, and she looked silently at the woods beneath her feet, pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
Everything is ready to go.
Yu Lian did not take the means of surprise attack, lurking, etc., for him, facing this kind of opponent, there is no need to be so troublesome, and the opponent who needs him to be so troublesome is already under Yu Lian's preparation, therefore, the way he chooses is very simple, direct, and rough.
That is, attacking from the front.
For the poor rebel guards, today was undoubtedly their fierce words, in fact, when the guards guarding the gate first saw the thin black shadow in the distance, and before they could figure out whether the other party was a man or a woman, friend or foe, Yuren replied with his own actions. He reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword at his waist, then pulled it out with his backhand.
A snow-bright silver light burst out from the jet-black sword in an instant, flying forward like a sharp arrow, bringing a huge wave of qi and roar, and the originally smooth ground and road also cracked in front of this silver light, and retreated to both sides.
It's a pity that those rebel guards are only low-level swordsmen at most, when have they seen such a posture, in the face of this sudden silver blade, almost everyone reacted, threw down their weapons and turned around and ran.
The idea is good, but the reality is cruel.
The soul sword light of the gifted knights was beyond even the high-level swordsmen, not to mention these ant-like existences, in fact, these soldiers had just turned around, and the weapons in their hands had not yet fallen to the ground, when they felt a chill on their bodies rush over -- and then, they only felt a flower in front of them, and then a dazzling silver flash, and then, the whole world immediately became tilted and asymmetrical.
"Boom!"
It was only then that the two watchtowers around it collapsed, crushing the fragmented flesh underneath and disappearing.
Although the sentry didn't have time to give an alarm, Yulian didn't need any warning for the movement. But even so, the reaction of the rebel soldiers was quite surprising, although they jumped up at the first moment, and quickly grabbed their weapons and ran to the camp gate, but when Yuren walked leisurely into the ruins and tattered gates, the soldiers were not yet able to set up a formation to meet the enemyβwell, it was surprising enough that they knew how to form a formation.
"Sure enough, it's a bunch of rubbish. β
With his sword in hand, Yulian casually swept the surrounding rebel soldiers who were slowly advancing forward, then frowned, and then fixed his gaze on the tallest wooden house not far away. According to the information he had obtained from the captives, it was supposed to be the residence of the so-called leader of the Alliance, but he didn't know if the other party was there now?In fact, if Yuren still had any curiosity about this boring rebel, it was none other than the leader of this alliance. Although there are ambitious guys all over the street, there are very few people who can collude with the Mage Association and also mobilize the Wizard Knights, so Yu Lian is also very curious and concerned about what kind of relationship the leader of this alliance has with the Mage Association.
I hope he doesn't run away, but he can't escape if he wants to.
"Don't panic, listen to my orders and prepare to attack!"
Perhaps it was the sight that Yulian alone gave them courage, and one of the rebel soldiers quickly raised his sword, although he wondered like the others how the other had torn down the fortified gate and the sentry post, but this little doubt quickly disappeared in the face of the superiority in numbers, and he looked around him, there were a hundred people here, and there was only one on the other side.
"Kill him!"
With the order of this squad leader, soon many rebel soldiers raised their weapons and rushed towards Yulian with shouts. The guy who gave the order raised his sword and followed the group for a few steps, immediately shrank his head and immediately retreated to the rear.
It doesn't seem to be a real idiot either.
Of course, this poor guy didn't know that his every move was completely watched by Yu Lian, but Yu Lian only shook his head and smiled, he looked at the soldiers rushing in front of him, his eyebrows raised slightly, and in the next moment, the pitch-black long sword slid in front of Yu Lian again, followed by a perfect silver crescent.
This scene is almost like a scene in a movie, the bright crescent moon roars and expands, pounced on those poor insects who have killed themselves, and all those who come into contact with this crescent moon have stopped in an instant, and the weapons held high are frozen in the air, and the pursuers behind are not much better. Before they could even see what was happening, the whisper of death came to their ears, and then mercilessly plundered the most precious thing they were supposed to keep.
"Click. β
It seemed like a long time, but in the blink of an eye, Yuren's sword was already flying through the air and then retracted into its sheath. The slight sound caused by the collision of the gauntlet with the scabbard caused a completely unexpected domino effect.
The soldier who rushed to the front leaned over, and the upper body of the whole person slid from his waist and fell to the ground like a cut eagle, while his lower body was still supported on the ground for a moment, and then his legs weakened and fell to the ground. Bright red, surging blood spurted out of the gap, forming a bloody and beautiful fountain.
One after another.
With the heavy sound of the corpse falling to the ground with the weapon, blood-colored fountains rose from the ground and sprinkled unscrupulously in all directions, dyeing the ground red in a short time, which had already been covered in snow white.
Holy grace is above!
The clever guy before suddenly shuddered at this moment, he stared at the ground in front of him in disbelief, with the young man as the center, the corpses around him lay on the ground in a mess, but the strange thing was that almost all the corpses kept a perfect distance from Yulian, leaving an equidistant blank around the young man, so although the blood was sprayed everywhere, it was completely unable to stain Yulian's body.
Who the hell is this guy!
The squad leader hiding in the dark shadow glanced at You Lian in horror again, only to see that the young nobleman was leisurely scanning the surroundings, looking as if he was enjoying the mountains and rivers. In the distance, the rebel soldiers were already pale, their companions had taught them the most vivid lesson with their blood and their lives, and they would not be foolish enough to review the content of the lesson.
But, in any case, this is no longer an opponent that you can deal with.
Thinking of this, the team leader immediately turned around and left the battlefield as if flying, he almost rushed into the headquarters of the Freedom Alliance in a panic, and then crashed open the door without even giving an order.
"My lord! My lord!
"What's wrong?"
Hearing the squad leader's panicked report, a richly dressed man in the hall of the room who was studying the map in front of him raised his head, and he looked at the soldier in front of him with dissatisfaction, his eyes full of contempt and disdain.
"Didn't I say you had to knock on the door before you came in?
"My lord, it's not good, it's really not good, someone has killed it!"
"Oh?"
Hearing this, the man frowned, he straightened up, and looked at the squad leader in front of him.
"What is it? The Senna family's private army?"
"No, no, no, my lord, it's just a man, I don't know who he is, but he looks like a nobleman. β
"Alone?"
When the man heard this, his face turned cold.
"Why, a person deserves to make you so scrambling?"
"That's a terrible man, my lord, I don't know who he is, but he killed more than thirty of our brethren with a single sword! I didn't even see what he did! it was as if he swung a sword, and then there was a light, and then it .........."
"A ray of light, could it be that the sword qi is out of the body?"
Hearing this, the man's expression was a little solemn.
High-level swordsmen? However, where did the Senna family get the high-level swordsmen? According to the intelligence, they should not have such strength.
However, in any case, since the other party can kill more than twenty people with one sword, it is naturally not easy to deal with.
"I'll contact the Wizard Knights immediately, you can go out first. β
"Yes, sir. β
Hearing this answer, the squad leader was relieved, and he immediately turned around and left the room, while the man frowned, thought for a moment, and then sighed, and then took out a small crystal ball from his arms.
"It seems that there is no other option. β
Horen's mood was very bad.
It's not just because of the previous blow, and the fact that he was forced to carry out the order, in fact, these two things alone are enough to make Faren's mood extremely bad, after all, he is obviously not fighting a just war, but now, the teacher has no intention of stopping, on the contrary, if he dares to disobey the order, then it is even possible to disband the Wizard Knights. Why did the teacher make such a decision? Haren couldn't understand what it was for.
And at this moment, outside the tent, a female mage's voice sounded.
"Commander, the rebels have emergency contact, they have been attacked, and they want us to help. β
"Assault?now?"
Faren frowned, a hundred and eighty reluctance in her heart, in fact, if she could, she would even want to take the Wizard Knights to destroy these guys. However, after all, Farin is basically a very straightforward person who does not bend around. She knew that what she had done before had made herself an accomplice to them, and now, even if she eliminated them, she would not be able to change that fact. Moreover, Farin herself doesn't know what kind of mood she should be in right now.
But...... Right now?
Rubbing his lower abdomen, which was still a little painful, Farren took a breath of cold air, what a coincidence, why does it have to be now?
"Do you have to go?"
She looked up and asked dissatisfiedly, while the female mage looked embarrassed. Because of this kind of inquiry, it is obviously more like a subordinate asking a superior, but in fact, the identities of the two people are obviously reversed. Therefore, she is only responsible for conveying information, and is not qualified to make decisions.
"Okay. β
Faren stood up and reached out to take the battle axe on the side, this action made her frown again, the intense pain in her body made her a little unhappy, but at this moment, it was obvious that there was no other way.
"Let's go. β
For the rebel soldiers, when they saw the mages in the sky, it felt as if centuries had passed -- but in fact, it was only a matter of ten minutes.
Of course, with the abilities of Farin and the Wizard Knights, they could have reached the battlefield in a few minutes. But the combination of anxiety and physical pain made it uncharacteristically for her to assemble the line for several minutes, and then slowly to make her way. In fact, deep down, Faren still very much hoped that when he arrived, all these guys from the rebels would be dead, and then he would be able to easily go back to the errand.
But reality is often not subject to human will.
Seeing the black figure in the encirclement, Faren's eyes couldn't help but widen in surprise, and it just so happened that almost at the same time, Yuren also raised his head and looked at Faren.
Those dark eyes froze Faren's soul almost instantly, and she felt unusually deep uneasy. In fact, if it weren't for this man's words, then Faren probably wouldn't have gone to check the battlefield on a whim, and he wouldn't have known the truth. So, this man obviously knew it for a long time, what did he think of himself, and did he hate himself as much as those people?
For a moment, Farin almost wanted to turn and run away, but she still stopped abruptly, and at this moment, the pride of the gifted knight prompted her to abandon the option of escaping. Moreover, there was a hint of expectation in her heart -- perhaps, the answers that she could not get from the teacher could be obtained from this person.
However, Farin has not yet had time to make this decision.
Because at this moment, a black shadow had already flown into the sky and stopped in front of them.
"Huh?"
After seeing the dark shadow clearly, not only Faren, but even the mages behind her opened their eyes in surprise, unable to believe what they were seeing.
Beautiful long violet hair fluttering in the wind, huge metal wings reflecting the winter sun, Offariel stared at the girl in front of him seriously, the black double whip in his hand slowly drooped, and the sharp inverted blades on it shone with a cold brilliance.
"You, you're still alive?"
At this moment, Faren felt sincerely happy in her heart, and she was almost a little grateful. After all, although her mood has been very low in the past few days, at the beginning, it was caused by her accidentally killing the girl in front of her. And now, seeing the girl who was supposed to die appear in front of her alive made Faren's heart extremely excited, and even she couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in now.
β...... Let's go. β
Taking in the other party's expression, Ofariel couldn't help but sigh secretly, this poor young lady has completely fallen into Yulian's trap at this moment, and she doesn't know it...... In a way, it's really sympathetic.
"Wait, I'm not ........."
"Your Excellency wants to destroy all the rebels here, and no one will stop them, not even you. β
Offariel was not interested in hearing what Farin had to say, she interrupted the other party stiffly, and then the whip suddenly burst into action and pounced on the enemy in front of her.
"Ding!!"
The huge battle axe once again crossed and fended off Ofariel's attack, which on the surface seemed to be no different from a few days ago, but this time, the attackers and defenders switched places.
The blow was blocked, but Offariel did not stop, her body turned, and then quickly retreated, and after cutting through a circle, the long whip in her hand once again attacked Farien.
"Wait a minute, we can ......"
The long black whip sliced through the air, interrupting Farien's speech once more, forcing her to continue her defense.
"Protect the Captain!"
"Aid Corps Chief!"
And at this moment, the surrounding mages also woke up one after another, they scattered on the one hand, and quickly connected each other's power on the other, and soon, golden beams of light appeared in the sky again.
As expected.
Ofaril attacked while sighing helplessly in his heart.
Although this is only the second meeting between the two sides, Offariel already knows Farien, after all, she has been reminiscing about the previous fight for the past few days. He also has a grasp of Faren's strength and actions. However, this time the battle was completely different. Not only did Faren not have the explosive attack like before, but he was even very reluctant to defend. It was clear that she had no heart to fight, and she had no intention of fighting.
But it's not that simple.
Ofaryl knows very well how big the gap between himself and the gifted knight is, not to mention Yulian, even the twin sisters, they can drink tea and read books while catching their attacks with all their strength without care, this is not a matter of will to fight, but a complete gap in strength. It's like a mosquito that can't penetrate an elephant's skin even with all its might.
But now, Faren's strength is obviously not the case.
Her performance was not just in mentality, but in her body -- in the face of O'Fariel's attack, her reaction was not only slow, but even her defense was not very fast. Moreover, O'Faryl also sensed that her body was slightly unconsciously curled up, as if she was enduring some kind of pain.
"I believe that if this condition is met, then even you and Zai will be able to gain the upper hand when they fight against her. β
Yurien's previous words echoed in Ofaryl's mind again, and she thought that the other party was just sarcastic about herself, but for now, it was obviously the truth.
Not only Faradi, but Offariel also noticed that even the mages who were in charge of the attack were also weak, even though their spells could not cause harm to them in the first place. However, it can still be done with the enhancement of the Lotus Flower, but now, many of them have dissipated some of their spells, and they will even be interrupted inexplicably.
And many of those mages were just as pale as Horen, and none of them seemed to be very comfortable.
"In the old days, the menstrual period of a female mage was a highly military secret. β
It really seems that this is more than just a joke.
