Chapter 148: Interception

The lieutenant officer drew his sword, and the sergeants who came in with him also drew their knives and quickly formed an encirclement. The soldiers outside heard something unusual inside the manor, and quickly rushed in through the gate or over the wall.

The speed of reaction is worthy of the garrison legion of St. Lun City.

However, the lieutenant did not attack immediately, he looked at Luke and Empress Christina, and waved his hand to let the soldiers who came in behind him out. The atmosphere inside the manor was a little more relaxed, but the sergeants still pointed their knives at the two men in the encirclement.

"Since you are from the city of Shenglun, you should know that we are from the City Garrison Legion. We've been ordered to hunt down the spies of the Atshire Union, and we have a few questions for you, and after clearing your suspicions, we'll naturally let them go. ”

The lieutenant observed that the clothing, fabrics, and craftsmanship of the two were not affordable for ordinary people. And at first glance, the two of them are pampered and well-behaved, the woman is very beautiful, and she may be a young lady from an aristocratic family depending on her temperament.

Luke, who wanted to fool the past, realized that he had miscalculated the situation.

This is not the jurisdiction of the City Garrison of St. Lun City at all, and the spies who hunt down the Atlantshire Union should also be accompanied by agents from the Imperial Intelligence Bureau.

This group of sergeants of the Saint-Lun City City Garrison Legion appeared here, most likely on the order of the great prince Fania, to form a barrier on the north side of the Shenglun City, connect with the jurisdiction of the Northern Legion, and form an uninterrupted net to prevent the queen from returning to the imperial capital.

According to Fania's character, his order must have been "Kill by mistake rather than let go!" ”

Luke grabbed Queen Christina's hand and used the mana wave to send a code to tell her his guess.

Let's see if we can fool the past.

Luke smiled and said to the lieutenant, "It is the duty of the Amelia family to serve the Empire. ”

The lieutenant looked away from Empress Christina and looked at Luke, "Have you seen anyone suspicious?" ”

"No...... Of course, it's also possible that Tina and I are so absorbed in the world of two people that we don't notice anyone passing by. ”

The lieutenant looked around, noticed two horses in good condition, and then asked Luke, "The Empire is at war with the Artshire Union, and agents from the County Ice Caves often infiltrate here. How come I don't see your servants and retinue...... Let them come, and I will question them. ”

Luke knew the lieutenant was going one step further.

At the same time, Empress Christina hinted that she was ready for battle.

Luke replied, "It's just me and Tina on this excursion, and the servant and retinue will only get in the way of our two private worlds." Since there are Artere-Union Ice Cave agents nearby, I guess we'd better get out of here.

If there are no other questions, can we go?

Lieutenant! ”

The lieutenant looked at the two men, especially the woman who resembled the queen in the description. It's just that the queen is not protected by a guard composed of royal knights and palace guards?

But regardless of whether the woman was Empress Christina or a young lady of a certain aristocratic family, the lieutenant did not dare to really carry out the order of the eldest prince, "Kill on the spot!" ”

So, after thinking for a moment, the lieutenant glanced at the queen again, and then said to Luke, "I can't judge your identity by your words alone. The agents of the Imperial Intelligence Agency are behind, and we will hand you over to the Intelligence Agency, and they will take you back to the city of St. Lun to verify your identity. ”

The lieutenant decided to hand over these two people to the cronies of the Grand Prince, and then their life and death would have nothing to do with him.

"That's great, with you and the Imperial Intelligence Agency's protection, my wife and I can return home safely. Let's lead the horses......"

Lukla led Queen Christina to the stables, first putting the saddle on the horse's back.

At this time, the lieutenant noticed the peculiar style of the saddle, as well as the royal coat of arms engraved on the saddle!

"Royal Knights, you are Royal Knights! No...... You are ......"

The lieutenant did not dare to say any more, because he had already guessed the true identity of the woman.

Luke finds himself forgetting the difference in the saddle and seems to have to kill it!

At this time, Luke had already fastened the quick-fix lock on the saddle, and the alchemy array automatically tied to the most comfortable strength. He and Queen Christina turned on their horses, their bright waistcoats spreading rapidly from under the saddle to the horse's body.

The greedy red dragon spear was held in his hand, and with a flick of his hand, a fire dragon wrapped around the body of the spear.

The Thunder Flame Pupil activated, and the shockwave that erupted pushed the surrounding sergeants back one after another.

The royal horse was agitated by the neighing of the irritation, and the virtual horn protruded from its forehead.

In this situation, the atmosphere is so in place.

Luke yelled, "I am the Meteorite of Angry Waves City, escorting Her Royal Highness the Empress back to the Imperial Capital. Since you are the sergeants of the City Garrison Legion of the Holy Lun City, don't hurry up and get out of the way!

If you dare to disturb Her Royal Highness the Queen, you will be my soul! ”

After the roar, Luke felt even more energetic, and drove his horse straight towards the stunned sergeants.

I didn't forget to turn around and shout: "Her Royal Highness the Queen follow me!" ”

Luke rode his horse and charged, and the greedy red dragon spear was thrown out by him with a fire dragon head, and the soldiers who were blocking in front of him dodged in both directions. The head of the fire dragon slammed into the gate of the manor, and there was a blast of fireworks, and before the smoke and dust could fall, Luke had already ridden out.

Empress Christina followed closely behind Luke, summoning her sword of power and unfurling her cloak embroidered with the royal coat of arms of the Golden Shield behind her collar. In this case, there is no need to hide the identity, but it is better to boldly reveal the identity of the queen, which will definitely make some soldiers have scruples.

Luke and Queen Christina scattered the soldiers outside the manor and rode towards the city of St. Lun. By the time the disgraced lieutenant and his subordinates rushed out of the manor, the two horses had already run a few hundred meters away.

One of the sergeants was puzzled, "Meteorite in Angry Waves...... He's the Governor of Raging Waves! How did the Governor of Meteorite ...... with the emperor With that woman.

Lieutenant, what should we do? ”

"Send a signal to the people around us that we have found the woman and that she is heading in the direction of the city of St. Lun." After the lieutenant gave the order, he looked at his subordinates who had suffered heavy casualties, and then ordered: "Let's chase!" ”

A magical firefinch was launched into the air, and soon a number of firefins were seen flying in the surrounding sky, and the firefinches flew in the direction of Luke and Queen Christina's escape, pointing the way to the pursuers.

Soon the lieutenant rode his horses with his subordinates who were still able to move and pursued them south.

Luke and Queen Christina galloped towards the city of St. Lun, and after resting and refueling, the royal horses ran on all fours.

The soldiers of the city guards of St. Lun City, who were chasing from the left and right after receiving the news, could not catch up with the royal horse at all, and could only send magic signals one by one to point out the direction for the soldiers blocking in front.

In the sky, there are magical signals with different information. On the ground, surrounded by besieging soldiers, constantly appeared.

Luke opened the way in front with a gun, and a cavalry appeared directly ahead. Augmentation magic was unleashed among the knights, their armor clinging to their armor and their spears firing with sharp edges.

The officer at the head was dressed in barrel-shaped knight's armor, holding a knight's shield engraved with the family coat of arms in one hand and a four-meter-long knight's spear in the other. There is a magic eagle clinging to the tip of the spear, the eagle's wings are half-spread, the eagle's eyes are dazzling, and the eagle's cry shakes people's hearts.

Luke was still dressed in the same outfit, the hem of his trench coat swaying with the wind.

He straightened his waist and sat on the horse's back, facing the hordes of knights without any intention of avoiding it, and even kicked the horse in the belly, increasing the speed of the royal horse by another gear.

As the distance got closer, Lukeping picked up the greedy red dragon spear and sprinted with a standard cavalry to meet the rushing cavalry.

At the moment when the two sides were about to collide, the fire dragon clinging to the body of the spear let out a dragon roar and rushed forward, and the eagle with the head of the knight's spear on the opposite side also shot at the same time.

The dragon and the eagle grew larger in the air and collided head-to-head.

The energy from the collision spread like ripples, and the eagle was smashed to pieces on the spot, while the fire dragon was still fierce, roaring and charging at the cavalry.

The knights held their shields in front of them, and the pale golden protection unfolded one after another, resisting the impact of the fire dragon.

Another shock wave spread, and some weak knights were flipped from their horses to the ground.

By this time, Luke had already met with the knight leader.

The knight leader's spear is longer, but Luke's greedy dragon lance is crafted from dragon teeth and a wand. The greedy red dragon spear was attached to the body of the riding spear, and the fire and thunder were entwined and exploded with each other.

The spear was shattered in pieces, and the tip of the dragon lance easily pierced through the knight's magic shield and then through the sturdy armor. Luke's strength allowed him to easily pick up the body of the knight leader, and then threw it at the cavalry behind him.

The greedy red dragon spear flung left and right, the fire tide rolled, and lightning and lightning covered the entire cavalry group.

After Luke charged and killed a crossing, an elite cavalry team was left with three cavalry on the periphery surviving. The ground was covered with charred corpses, and the horses that were not yet dead were screaming and struggling.

Luke only looked back at Christina who was following him, and continued to charge.

At this time, you can't slow down, you can't be entangled by anyone. Only by constantly charging forward can we not be surrounded.

After running two kilometers, there was a row of military trucks arranged as a roadblock in front, and ten war machines and a large group of infantry were getting out.

Seeing Luke rushing towards him, war machines and infantry hurriedly lined up, muskets and crossbows fired indiscriminately.

Apparently they didn't expect the people they were trying to intercept come so quickly.

Luke unleashed a fire shield for himself, and the fire elementals coalesced into a red shield to protect him. Arrows and bullets rang out on the shield, and even if they were fired on a horse, they could not break through the armor's defenses.

Luke looked to the left and right, and a cavalry was outflanking diagonally from the right. It's just that after they saw the sword of power in Empress Christina's hand and the royal coat of arms on the cloak, the speed was noticeably slower.

The infantry in front of them had not yet completed their position, and if they formed a shield wall to unfold the "turtle shell", it would not be so easy to break through.

Luke raised his spear, and a bolt of lightning shot from the tip of the spear, followed by a series of fireballs that shot into the air. The lightning rose and fell, and the fireball drew a parabola in the air.

Lightning fell in the middle of the infantry, one divided into four, four divided into sixteen...... Jumped three times in a row, turning the infantry group on their backs. Before the soldiers could recover from the numbness of the electricity, the dense fireball bombardment was followed by a batch of heads and faces.

This was followed by a chain of lightning and a series of fireballs.

By the time Luke rushed inside, the trucks and war machines that stood in the way were all on fire, and the soldiers on fire were rolling on the ground.

Luke unleashed a fire faucet to knock an obstructed truck over and drove away with Queen Christina. The cavalry that was trying to outflank them had been slowed down by the sight of the queen, and after seeing Luke so violently destroy an infantry team, they decisively turned their horses and ran into the distance.

Just run and release magic signals to point the way for the other interceptors.

Luke didn't have time to take care of them, the royal horses were fast, and they were left behind in a moment.

However, the soldiers of the city garrison legion loyal to the eldest prince are still one after another, and if they kill a wave, they will soon make up for it.

And the strength is getting stronger and stronger.

As the city of Saint-Lun approached, a complete line of defense appeared in front of Luke.

The hoplites held shields and formed a shield wall, behind which were musketeers and crossbowmen. Then there are the war machines with the giant blades in tow, and finally the mages and magic projectiles.

Cavalry on both flanks.

There are also three steam airships in the air.

At Luke's side, a cavalry force struggles to entangle him, and even Queen Christina has to fight her enemies with her sword and magic.

Luke swung his spear and swept it, and the dragon spear tore through the middle of a cavalryman and his armor. Blood sprayed in the air, and the blood shot at Luke was burned into wisps of black smoke as it touched the fire shield.

Where the horse's hooves stepped down, a ring of fire with impact spread, violently breaking the knight's horse's ankle.

The lightning and fireballs fell densely, and the surrounding knights could only hold up the shield with all their might.

The surging magic allowed Luke to fight all the way, still with reserves to squander. The bloodline of the Flame Stone Demon showed no signs of exhaustion of his physical strength.

In the line of sight of the sergeants, the meteorite was like a god of war, surrounded by flames and lightning. The spear passed, and the strongest shields and armor were like papier-mΓ’chΓ©.

I don't know how many famous warriors were killed by him, and the road he ran along was covered with corpses of all kinds of dead bodies.

Now he was galloping towards him, and there were fewer and fewer fighters around him who were fighting him.

The sound of war horses galloping is getting louder and louder.

All the soldiers faced the meteorite that was entangled in fire and lightning, and all of them clutched their weapons tightly, and sweat unconsciously flowed down their foreheads.

They didn't know if their shield would be able to stop the meteor's spear.

As a deafening dragon roar resounded throughout the battlefield, a red dragon glowing with golden light flew out of Meteor's right hand holding the spear. Rushing into the air, the red dragon with dragon scales inlaid with gold grew from the size of a palm to ten meters.

The roar of the red dragon caused the earth to tremble, as if some ancient power had been awakened. It flailed its wings towards the airship in the air, a mouthful of scorching dragon breath erupting, burning a large hole in the airship's airbag that ran through the airship.
