Chapter 997 The Ninth Apostle, the Giant Worm
Queleta glanced helplessly at Delevingne, who was pulling calves behind her, and took a few quick steps to get closer to Darius, who was at the forefront, and lowered her voice.
"It's not good for Ah Wen to be in shape like this, or when this battle is over, let's go back and tell Ah Wen about family affairs, with a woman Ah Wen should grow up, and besides, we should almost take a long vacation......
"Well, when this battle is over, we will go back and get married, as for the matter of Awen, you also know that the kid has a stubborn personality like a cow, if he meets a satisfactory person, it is fine, if he doesn't like it, even if we say it, he will not agree."
Speaking of which, Darius smiled bitterly.
"What's more, others may not be able to look down on this kid, the problem of a broken mouth has to be changed, he has been in the army for so many years, because he doesn't know how much he has suffered because of that mouth, he just doesn't have a long memory."
"You yourself said that Arwen is stubborn, if you don't let him speak, he will definitely be anxious with you."
The whispering did not affect the vigilance of the wolf team, and the explosion of magic elements came from the other end of the mountain, followed by the rumble of the mountain collapsing and colliding, and the faces of the members of the wolf team changed.
Without saying anything more from Darius, the wolf squad entered a state of alert, and under the protection of everyone, the only magician, Sears, had already performed the probe, and the elemental bird that shared Sears' sight and sight with Sears rushed into the sky and flew to the other side of the mountain.
Sears opened his eyes, his face slightly anxious.
"It's the expedition team from the Wind Ward Sword Dojo! They are under siege by the creatures of the Void! There are too many enemies for us to deal with! We must seek support! ”
Hearing what Sears said, Darius immediately smashed the magic positioning crystal and killed him with his colleagues, and at the same time, the magic star tablet at the outpost had detected the crystal signal of the wolf team, and the armored knight troops on standby immediately attacked.
On the other side of the mountain, the warriors of the Wind Guardian Sword Dojo were already surrounded by dozens of Void Electric Eels, and hundreds of Void Digging Beasts were digging the high ground that Talia had strengthened with magic at all costs, trying to swallow the people of the Wind Guardian Sword Technique Dojo.
Yasuo walked with the wind under the highlands, slashing the Void Diggers one by one as if he had entered a no-man's land, and restrained most of the Void creatures.
The katana in his hand slashed out a wall of wind as sharp as a blade, and the wall of wind blocked the attack route of the Void Diggers, and the Void Diggers and Void Electric Eels that collided with the wind wall were cut into pieces by the air current, so the Void Diggers could only be forced to bypass the wind wall, so that the Void creatures could not play to their numerical advantage, giving the exploration team a chance to struggle and breathe.
The thirteen besieged Wind Warriors formed a formation on the high ground under the command of Yonn to protect Taria, the second core of the team, and used their swords as shields to block the places that the wind wall could not take care of.
Even if they have taken advantage of the location, the Wind Warriors don't feel the slightest bit relaxed, after all, not everyone has the strength of the Wind Swordsman.
"Support will arrive soon! We must hold our ground at all costs! ”
As the number three in the team, Yon's pressure is not small, and he acts as a firefighter on the high ground.
"Squeak Squeak!!"
Floating in mid-air, the body of the Void Electric Eel is translucent, almost impossible to detect when stationary, and only within a few seconds of accumulating lightning to launch an attack will the Void Electric Eel's body transform into a light purple skin full of disgusting spots.
"Be careful!"
Several purple lightning bolts slashed from above, and Yongen dodged to the back of his junior brother and slashed a knife, and the energy attached to the blade directly dispersed the lightning.
Yongen, whose palm was burned by electricity, didn't say a word, took off the longbow from his back and shot three arrows in a row, and the ice element arrow with a strengthened arrow exploded into ice crystals at the moment it hit the Void Electric Eel, and the Void Electric Eel that was hit by all three arrows froze into an ice sculpture and fell to the ground, splitting into a ground.
Yon was about to draw the arrow and shoot again, a few lightning bolts had already struck a person, and the moment his body was paralyzed by electricity, the Void Digger who climbed the high ground had already torn open the swordsman's body with his claws, and the Void Digger Beast, which was about to feast, was killed by Yon's sword, and he didn't care about what to do, and Yongen filled the vacancy in the formation.
"Senior Brother Gu Ling!"
"Yasuo! We won't last long! ”
"Brother Yongen! When will support arrive? ”
"Damn! Why are our whereabouts revealed? ”
Several earth elemental spikes pierced through the Void Digger that was approaching Yon, and a pale Talia looked at Won.
"Brother Yongen! I'm here to stop these bugs! You're focused on dealing with the Void Electric Eel! ”
Clenching his teeth, Yon didn't speak, taking a few steps back and silently firing his bow and arrows, looking for the next Void Electric Eel to attack.
The trickiest part of the Void Electric Eel is its ability to stealthily shuttle, leaving him with less than two seconds to attack, and if the first arrow misses, the Void Electric Eel will dodge away and hide again to launch a sneak attack.
Suddenly, the sound of heavy horses' hooves came from the north, and Wynn looked up, only to see twenty heavily armed cavalry forming a wedge formation and killing the high ground where he was located, it was the border patrol team.
Although the number of knights who came to support was small, the morale boost brought by it was real, and the presence of a border patrol team here was enough to show that the stronghold was not far from here, and a large force would soon arrive.
Darius lowered his helmet, and the long-handled broad-bladed axe in his right hand easily shredded several Void Diggers in their way.
"Kill with me! Disrupt their formation! ”
Immediately behind Darius, the wolf squad stabbed the Void Beasts like a sharp knife, causing a commotion.
Worried that Darius and the others would crash into his sword blade wind wall, Yasuo reminded loudly.
"Big guys! Dodge the wind wall! ”
"Good! We're holding these animals back on the periphery! The big army will be there soon! ”
I also noticed that the void electric eel of Darius and the others split a part to attack the wolf team, and the thunderbolt current hit the armor only made Darius and the others feel a little numb, and it did not affect everyone's actions, but aroused the killing intent of the wild wolf team.
The heavy cavalry squad rushed back and forth in the Void Beasts, successfully disrupting the formation of the Void Diggers, greatly reducing the pressure on the people on the high ground.
It's not the first time I've seen how strong the Imperial soldiers with heavy equipment are, and the surviving Wind Warriors are still shocked.
The expeditionary force is not so stingy as not to provide them with the same equipment as those who come from afar, the problem is that they are used to the light armor and katana on their bodies, and if they are allowed to wear heavy armor and take a big sword and axe, it will seriously drag down their combat effectiveness, so they can only maintain the status quo, after all, the sophisticated equipment of the empire is produced from the black iron furnace, and it is impossible to build a random earthen furnace to create suitable equipment for them.
The situation seemed to be getting better, but the Void Diggling Beasts stopped all their movements and prostrate on the ground, as if singing the praises of the king, and at the same time let out a piercing scream, and everyone's faces changed drastically.
The next moment, there was a violent sound from the depths of the ground, and the gray earth cracked a gap of hundreds of meters, and the five members of the wild wolf team who were in the back of the position avoided it, and in the shaking of the earth, even people and horses were planted into the crack, and life and death were unknown.
Seeing that his comrade-in-arms died so unexplained, Darius reined in his bridles and looked at the crack with tears in his eyes, only to see a giant worm-like void creature poking out of the crack, hundreds of body segments are connected with each other, and there are dark purple arthropods on both sides of the body segments that make the scalp numb, and the worms with arthropods supporting the edge of the crack continue to extend their bodies upward, falling a hundred meters high in the eyes of everyone.
With a pair of nimble antennae and a pair of giant jaws on its head, the worm has no eye organs, and its mouthparts are made up of ring-shaped fangs that are internal and external, dense enough to grind anything into a puree.
A woman with lilac skin is at the head of the worm, her tentacle-like slender arms are entwined with the antennae of the worm, and the lower half of her body is directly submerged under the hard carapace of the worm.
Qurieta looked up at the humanoid creature at the head of the worm and muttered.
"It's the Void Apostle, and we're in big trouble now."
Qurieta's voice still echoed in Darius's ears, and the giant worm had ejected a tentacle.
"Queleta! Be careful! ”
Darius rode towards Queleta, but was still a beat too slow.
The tentacles drew straight towards Qurieta's body, and Qurieta jumped off her horse and rolled twice on the ground with great speed, avoiding the cannonball-like tentacles, and the hard gray rock shattered instantly, leaving a small crater.
The Void Worm didn't attack again, and the humanoid creature on its head gave Qurieta a cold look and let out a woman's shrill sound.
"It's better for you not to talk casually without my permission, I don't like people stealing my limelight, especially women, this is the last warning."
In the silence, Darius clenched the giant axe in his hand, his heart pounding, the emotion of almost losing Queleta made the man want to kill the void monster in front of him immediately, his eyes stayed on the monster's body, but he didn't know how to kill such an enemy with an axe.
The people present were too small compared to the worm monsters, they were not opponents of the same level at all, and any courage seemed so pale and weak.
At this moment, Darius realized how much he craved power.
The obedient humanoid creature ignored Queleta and Darius, the worm lowered its head in the direction of Yasuo, and the female Void Apostle had an arrogant smile on her face, and did not give the wolf team another look, apparently not taking the wolf team seriously,
Since he didn't know the unwillingness and anger in Darius's heart, even if he knew, he wouldn't care, and the Void Apostle said loudly in standard Noxian imperial Chinese.
"Before I eat you, allow me to introduce myself, so that you know whose belly you are into, lest you die in vain.
My name is Suzana Farmor, and I am the Ninth Void Apostle who serves Her Majesty Empress Belvis, and this is my little pet named Pahetz, Hepaz, and I would like to say hello to everyone. ”
"Hiss ......"
The mouthparts of the giant void worm closed one by one, emitting a low-frequency cry, and everyone except Yasuo, including the wolf team, covered their ears in pain to relieve the pain in their heads.
Looking down with disdain, Suzana's gaze quickly fixed on Yasuo's body, and Yasuo's manly face was stunned, and there was a little more greed in his eyes.
"Handsome swordsman, who can resist the cry of Hepaz, what's your name?"
Knowing that going to war with the Void Apostle at this moment would only bring huge casualties, Yasuo decided to deal with the Void Apostle for a while and wait for the Empire's reinforcements to arrive.
"Yasuo."
"Yasuo?"
Hearing this slightly familiar name, Suzana looked rather surprised and giggled in a shrill voice.
"So you're the famous Wind Swordman? It's really better to see than to hear, and it's really a handsome and handsome character~ No wonder Her Majesty the Empress is also full of praise for you. ”
"That's really my honor, to be favored by the Empress of the Void."
Yasuo coped quietly, secretly thinking about how to kill the other party if he fought the Void Worm.
In the face of such a disparity in size, his great sword also seemed to be weak.
could guess Yasuo's thoughts, but Suzana didn't care.
"Yasuo, you have the qualifications to be my 'family', how about joining me in the allegiance of Her Majesty the Empress and joining our family? In exchange, I can spare the companions you have a relationship with. ”
"Do you mean that I want to be like you? If you treat this ugly bug as a pet, you will become a ghost and a ghost. ”
Everyone was ready to fight, and to everyone's surprise, the Void Apostle who was ridiculed by Yasuo did not seem to be angry, but patiently enlightened Yasuo.
"Why bother with the beauty and ugliness of the unexpected table? Only spiritual rest and satisfaction are what we should pursue,
When you become one of us, you will understand what is really worth protecting, we can enjoy a better life in the world created by Her Majesty the Empress than ever before, and if you don't like our posture, you can keep your appearance in the sea of light purple.
Her Majesty is far more generous than you think, and her heart can hold the whole world. ”
Yasuo shook his head.
"But all I see is endless destruction, and the so-called new world of Bervis is nothing more than a mirage built on the suffering of others, just look at the Aecasia Peninsula and you can understand what your empress has done."
Suzana sighed softly.
"So, did you choose to refuse? It's rare that I kindly invite you...... Heppaz, kill them. ”
"Hiss !!"
At the cries of the giant Void Worms, the Void Diggers and Void Electric Eels re-attacked the crowd.
"Brother! You take Talia and they run first! I'll hold her back! ”
