Chapter 23: Severed Fingers
The eight Iron Guards of the Grand Duke of Kalil were still constantly attacking the Elephant Eagle troops flying in the sky, and there were only eight of them, but with their superb martial arts and extraordinary courage, there were nearly a hundred Elephant Eagle warriors who died at the hands of the eight of them. Archduke Kalil looked nervously at the city gates that had been blown open. Outside the city gate is the Viking light cavalry that can be seen in the distance, neatly lined up, showing that the troops are well-trained, although there is some mud on the armor, which is left over from the last great defeat, but at least from the current situation, they do not have a trace of decadence! Grand Duke Kalil prayed in his heart that the lieutenant general would come soon, hoping to seal the city gate, as long as the fast archers could arrive in time, he could block the enemy's light cavalry, and then use the long-arm machine crossbow to suppress the eagle troops in the sky, and then eliminate the Viking soldiers on the city wall little by little, as long as they survived an attack, the Vikings had no food and grass to bear, and they would not last for three days, and when the time came, the victory would be his!
Quan Yuan will still be in his military tent, originally his main task was to deal with Xia Hao, before Xia Hao appeared, he could not move lightly. Liu Lei suddenly disappeared, making him suddenly lose the bottom of his heart. Originally, with Liu Lei by his side, it seemed that anything could be solved, but now without Liu Lei, Quan Yuan, who faced everything alone for the first time, really felt a little overwhelmed. He walked around the barracks, the shouts outside, the footsteps of the soldiers running back and forth, the sound of the clash of equipment, all these sounds were intertwined, which was the most common sound in war, but it made Kwon Won's head feel bigger and bigger.
At this time, the enemy outside the city wall was getting closer and closer, and the Grand Duke of Kalil looked back at his fast archer, there was no shadow yet, he let out a long sigh, and had no choice but to order: "General Batra, order half of the long-arm machine crossbows to reduce the firing height, change to flat fire, and concentrate all of them at the city gate, and the thirty magic anti-aircraft guns will also move over together!" This is just a helpless move, only relying on the long-arm crossbow that is very slow to load and unload crossbow arrows and the flat-firing magic cannon that cannot be fired continuously in a short period of time, there is no way to stop such a galloping light cavalry, and can only be counted for a while, and half of the long-arm crossbows are transferred, the air defense force is bound to weaken, they will not be able to withstand those eagle warriors in the sky, and the casualties of the soldiers will definitely be very heavy; without the flat-fire magic cannon, if they want to recapture that section of the city wall from the Vikings, they must step on the road paved with blood!
Grand Duke Kalil can hope that his Iron God Guard can play a more effective role, and try to contain those killers in the sky! But at this time, an elephant eagle dived, he was the first to see the long-arm machine crossbow that had been removed and left a gap in defense, and on top of a tall magic tower next to it that had been cut off from the spire, a black shadow suddenly burst out, shooting directly at the elephant eagle, the cold light in the black shadow's hand flashed, and a knife light like lightning shrouded the elephant eagle! Suddenly, on the line where the black shadow was flying, a person suddenly appeared, the man stretched out his hand and slashed, his palm skillfully bypassed the sword light in Tie Shenwei's hand, and slashed at his neck with one palm, Tie Shenwei looked up to the sky and spit out a mouthful of blood, and the flying figure stopped abruptly, and just fell from the air.
Grand Duke Kalil exclaimed bitterly: "Little Liu!" On the tall buildings around him, seven figures shot out almost at the same time, all of them shot towards the person who intercepted Xiao Liu, Xia Hao was not in a hurry, his body swayed back and forth between the seven figures, and he deftly staggered one god position after another, and from time to time counterattacked the seven Iron Divine Guards, who had been very tacitly compatible, and he was in a hurry! Grand Duke Kalil shouted loudly to the sky: "Come back! Xiao Liu's revenge, naturally someone avenges him, Xia Hao is the source of power!" "Yes, he is mine!" Quan Yuan suddenly appeared, at that moment, he felt that he was really the savior, if he could resist Xia Hao, then the entire Ganar City still had a trace of hope, if he couldn't resist it, then everything was hands-free! Xia Hao suddenly got rid of the entanglement of the Iron God Guard with a long roar, and shot towards Quan Yuan like lightning, Quan Yuan stared at Xia Hao who was coming quickly, and the strength of his whole body was increased to the extreme!
The Iron God Guards retreated gloomily, Xia Hao said that he would just leave, obviously his skills were more than twice as high as them, and they couldn't revenge Xiaoliu's revenge. At the moment when they retreated, Xia Hao, who was originally moving forward, suddenly fell into some transparent object, and the whole person was "bounced" back - it was originally flying forward, without any preparatory action, it suddenly became an action in the opposite direction, such a huge contrast, which made people feel this way-faster than shooting out just now, Xia Hao stood beside the Iron God Guards in a blink of an eye, and the light on his body flashed: "Ten Thousand Sword Technique!" Countless sword lights shot out, and the dazzling light could compete with the sun! The seven Iron Divine Guards were caught off guard, Xia Hao's "Ten Thousand Sword Technique" was his famous stunt again, the power was unimaginable, the ten thousand sword light shot through the bodies of the seven Iron Divine Guards, and it also kept shooting some soldiers and long-armed machine crossbows on the ground! Suddenly, it was as if a radiant sun was rising in the city of Ganar, but his light was so deadly! Quan Yuan looked at all this blankly, Xia Hao turned around and smiled at him! The Viking soldiers on the wall were covered in blood, cheering loudly in the light, and suddenly had strength in their hands, and they fought back together, and even forced the completely superior Roya back a few meters!
Grand Duke Carlil sighed gloomily, he couldn't hesitate any longer, he ordered a personal soldier: "Go and inform the magic troops immediately, target the enemy light cavalry outside the south gate, attack with all your might!" Under normal circumstances, magic troops are used at the end of the battle, because although magic troops are powerful, there are still too many inconveniences in modern warfare. First of all, modern weapons are developed and powerful, and once the magician reveals his location, it is easy to be hit and suffer a catastrophe! The power of ancient defensive magic is difficult to resist the powerful new magic weapons and high-powered crossbows that are now powerful. And because the war has always made people only focus on the study of attack magic, and no one wants to spend time on defensive magic that seems to be slow to work, so the magic army is really powerful now, but in the same way, when attacked, Su is also helpless.
Grand Duke Carlil originally wanted to keep the magic troops all the time, as long as he survived this time, when he counterattacked, using the magic troops would be almost a fatal blow to the defeated enemy! All the magicians in the city were all gathered in the basement of his mansion, so although the Vikings bombarded the city indiscriminately, they did not hurt a single cold hair of these magicians. After the order of the Grand Duke of Kalir, these magicians came up from the ground, and the first thing they did was to kneel on the ground one by one, and they made various postures of worship, and each magician was a believer, and they believed in a different sect - it was no longer ancient times, and now there was freedom of worship, and all kinds of magic were no longer excluded, and people believed that as long as it was used properly, magic was not good or bad.
The worship postures of each sect are different, and suddenly a "worship ceremony gathering" was staged in the Grand Ducal Mansion, and all the magicians are playing their own gods, hoping that they will bless themselves to return home safely and that this war can be won! They all know that when the magic troops are dispatched, the battle has reached the most tragic stage, and they are likely to become the most expensive cannon fodder! The magicians are very high in the army, just because it is too dangerous. Times are different, the magic troops of ancient times are no longer in the limelight, although they have more powerful attack power than ancient magic troops, but they are also not much more vulnerable than in ancient times.
The mounts of the Viking light cavalry, unified is a hybrid offspring of a white wolf and a purebred horse living in the ice and snow on the northern cold continent, which is another pride of the Vikings in addition to the Elephant Eagle Army, their light cavalry is not only extremely fast, but also fierce and bloodthirsty, and will not be afraid of any battle! The light cavalry rushing in front suddenly fell down, a few hundred meters in front of the city wall, the whole ground suddenly sank, the light cavalry running in front was caught off guard and all fell in, and the back couldn't stop their mounts for a while, and trampled on the light cavalry in front of them at once, and the cavalry in a row went down, and the horses neighed and the miserable screams of the people made the whole pit chaotic! The Grand Duke of Kalil had some comfort in his heart, it seemed that these magicians who spent a lot of money to raise them were still of some use. However, things did not develop in the square imagined by the Grand Duke of Kalil, although such a large-scale ground movement magic launched by the magicians temporarily prevented the impact of the Viking light cavalry, but the distance of the magic was too close to the city wall, the foundation of one side of the city wall was almost exposed, the short city wall, densely packed with people, under such heavy pressure, the city wall slowly began to tilt, the speed of the start was very slow, no one noticed, the battle on the city wall continued, the Roya people held shields in front of them, ten people shot in a row, holding spears and slowly squeezed towards the Vikings, the Vikings' formation was similar, Before the two sides make contact, there will be almost no damage, but once the spears of the two sides touch, the two sides quickly leave their spears and pull out their sabers and frantically overtake each other! On the narrow city wall, ten people stand side by side, it is already very crowded, the two sides are crowded together, and it is difficult to even turn around, in such a formation, the charging and the defending must have the determination to die! Often, if you slash someone else, someone else will stab you back, and there is no room for much flashing here, to see who has the strength to be able to hack others to death with one sword, but if you cut the opponent to death, it does not mean that you will win, and another knife will emerge behind you! After each charge, it is difficult to find a complete corpse, arms, fingers, and ears on the ground...... Blood flowed down the drainage system of the city walls.
Quan Yuan stared blankly at the seven corpses that slowly fell, who was responsible for the death of the seven Iron Guards? He kept asking himself this in his heart, wanting to find a reason, or find someone to take this responsibility in his place. But he was disappointed, he searched for a long time, but he couldn't convince himself. It was him, his mistake that caused the death of these seven people, and a huge feeling of guilt that he had never experienced before hit him in an instant. Quan Yuan didn't realize that he didn't care about anything in the past, and the life and death of others had never been related to him, how could he be heartbroken with guilt for the death of these seven people he didn't know!
Xia Hao looked at Quan Yuan, looked at it for a long time, he frowned and asked, "It's you!" Quan Yuan didn't speak, Xia Hao asked again: "The person who stood on the city wall that day was you, right?" Quan Yuan said slowly: "Yes, it's me who stands on the city wall, but it's not ......me who emitted that momentum" Xia Hao smiled: "I guessed a long time ago, even if you are a dragon summoner, you can't have such a strong momentum, even if it's a dragon, you don't have such a strong momentum!" Quan Yuan said calmly: "You guessed it...... Xia Hao looked at the sky, he didn't know if Liu Lei was looking at him again, but he couldn't let go of Quan Yuan because of Liu Lei's words, although he knew that since Liu Lei was able to mention Jilingxia, then Jilingxia must have suffered in his hands, and it would not be much better if he was himself, but if he really did what Liu Lei said, then Liu Lei's heart will always be a weakness, and this weakness will make him not advance and retreat from now on, as a super master like him, he obviously understands the importance of spiritual cultivation for a master, and he must not compromise!
Xia Hao had ten fingers, ten long lightsabers stretched out from his ten fingers, and eight shorter lightsabers stretched out from his eight fingers, and behind him, fifty thick lightsabers were arranged in a circle and attached behind him. Quan Yuan's eyes were red, and at that moment, he found the object of the catharsis of the grief in his heart, it was this person, it was this person, it was him, it was he who killed those Iron Guards, it was him, and he let himself bear such a charge! A voice in Quan Yuan's heart kept shouting: "Kill him, kill him, kill him!" He roared, and eight crimson wings suddenly appeared around his body, those wings were not real wings, but wings condensed by energy, and the eight wings were floating around Quan Yuan's body not far away, and Quan Yuan's eyes were already as red as the color of the wings!
Xia Hao smiled when he saw this scene: "Oh, it turns out that it's not just the summoner of the dragon, there are other ......" Quan Yuan interrupted him: "I'm not the summoner of the dragon!" I'm nothing, but, I'm going to kill you...... Xia Hao smiled disdainfully: "If you are really a summoner of the dragon, you may still have a chance with that little chance, you are nothing, why do you kill me, rely on these feathers on your body!hahaha...... It's really interesting...... "Quan Yuan didn't say anything, he suddenly accelerated, and the speed made Xia Hao who was laughing startled! Quan Yuan's body had already reached him before he bowed his head. Xia Hao was unceremonious, stretched out his hand and shot out the five long lightsabers, Quan Yuan dodged, the five lightsabers were very tricky, and almost all the directions that could dodge were sealed, but after all, there was still so much leeway, such a glimmer of leeway, not for people, but for loaches - unless you have a flexible body like a loach you can dodge. If Liu Lei was here, he would definitely be too lazy to waste things and directly block it all back, but Quan Yuan didn't do it, because he had a more flexible body than a loach!
Quan Yuan's leaning body was folded into ninety degrees, his neck and legs twisted incredibly, letting go of the three lightsabers, his arms swinging like noodles, dodging the remaining two, but his body continued to rush forward unhindered, but Xia Hao smiled slightly, obviously the super master's fame stunt naturally would not be so simple! Quan Yuan had not yet reflected, and suddenly there was a sharp pain in his back! The five lightsabers quickly swept his back and returned to Xia Hao's hands. Quan Yuan's whole body trembled in pain, but he gritted his teeth and still rushed towards Xia Hao, and the eight wings around his body slapped into two knife wheels, slashing towards Xia Hao at a rapid speed!
Xia Hao stretched out his hands and blocked quickly, five fingers and one point, and eight short light swords shot out! Quan Yuan had already become a frightened bird, no longer dodging, and the eight wings immediately returned to defense, blocking in front of him! But this time the eight short swords were different from the ones just now, as soon as the eight short swords encountered resistance, they immediately exploded, and the energy contained in them exploded! Quan Yuan was unexpectedly blown up and his whole body was torn apart, and the eight wings in front of him also flew far away!
The sword wheel behind Xia Hao began to rotate, the light gradually grew, he slowly flew to Quan Yuan, who crashed into a magic tower, and stretched out his hand towards Quan Yuan: "Come out, do you want to kill me, give you another chance!" Quan Yuan stretched out his tongue and licked the blood at the corner of his mouth, and slowly held his hand in Xia Hao's outstretched hand, as soon as he exerted his strength, his body broke away from the tower, and the entire magic tower suddenly exploded, and eight crimson wings flew out, like eight deadly scimitars, shooting directly at Xia Hao's vital point! Xia Hao burst out with a long laugh: " I had expected you to have this hand!" Quan Yuan held Xia Hao's hand tightly, and he must hold him so that he can't run away! Suddenly, there was an unbearable sharp pain in his hand, Quan Yuan clenched his steel teeth and held Xia Hao's hand hard, but he found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't use his strength, he had never felt this kind of feeling, he looked at Xia Hao on the opposite side and left calmly with a smile, Xia Hao's hand, the lightsaber that had disappeared appeared again, Quan Yuan felt a chill in his heart, he raised his hand and saw that the left hand he held Xia Hao was already the palm of his hand, and all the fingers were broken!
