Chapter 998 The Heart of the Sword Hero
"Hold me back? No matter how arrogant you are, there should be a limit. ”
At Suzana's sneer, the Void Worm arched its body and bit Yasuo with its mouthparts wide open, like a toppled mountain, with a terrifying momentum.
The speed of the Void Worm is fast enough, but it is also difficult to match Yasuo's speed of action.
Seeing that the Void Apostle had become jealous of him, Yasuo dodged and fled away from the others, and the shadow that obscured the sky and the sun quickly approached, bringing Yasuo a lingering coldness.
Facing the void worm swallowed with his mouthparts wide open, Yasuo kept moving, reflexively drew his sword and slashed, and a long sword qi flew towards the worm's mouthparts, and he had already turned into a gust of wind and left the range of the worm's jaws.
Sensing that the sword qi was enough to cause damage to the worm's mouth, Suzana's face changed slightly, and she immediately ordered the worm to close its mouth,
Worm Hepaz closed his mouthparts and shook his jaw to block the sword qi, and the sharp and incomparable sword qi left a three-centimeter-deep sword mark on the jaw of the Void Worm, which looked not shallow, but it was nothing to the huge Void Worm, but Yasuo already knew that the worm's chamber was a big weakness.
Suzana stared at Yasuo, who had fled into the desert, with an undisguised sneer on her face.
"You can speak well, you have a tough guy face, but you run like a coward and don't look back, it seems that you, the Wind Sword Hero, are not a hero."
Having said that, Suzana also knew that Hepaz's speed alone could not cause damage to Yasuo, and that it had to be supplemented by her Void Spell, and as for the others, it didn't matter if they lived or died, now she just wanted to kill the Tempest Swordman and make the Tempest Swordman understand how stupid it was to refuse her invitation.
When Yasuo successfully contained the Ninth Void Apostle, Darius and the people of the Wind Ward Sword Technique Dojo completed the convergence,
The two teams formed a temporary battle formation with a tacit understanding to resist the attack of the void creatures.
The surviving fifteen heavy cavalry did not lose their morale due to battle damage, and were divided into three teams under the orders of Darius, two of which continued to charge on horseback under the leadership of Delevingne, and the other team dismounted as hoplites to follow Darius and Queleta.
Five armored horses form a circle, using their bodies as a shield wall to protect Talia and Sears, providing the safest space for the two mages who need to focus on spellcasting, and the outer circle is made up of wind warriors and wolf squad hoplites.
With the soldiers of the Wild Wolf Squad acting as a taunting shield in front, the Wind Warriors in the rear exerted their extraordinary strength, sometimes killing out of formation and efficiently slashing the void creatures, and when the void creatures surrounded and killed, they retracted behind the heavily armed soldiers, and for a while, the void creatures were unable to break through everyone's defense line.
Only when the Void Creature attack slowed down a little did the leaders of the two teams have a chance to speak.
"Thank you for the general's rescue, I wonder if I can help get Talia out?"
The first to speak was Yong Eun, who was holding two knives and his face was covered in blood, and he couldn't hide his exhaustion between his eyebrows.
Darius looked at Talia with his peripheral eyes, he knew that there was a Shurima girl mage in the exploration team where the Wind Sword Hao Yasuo was located, and the famous Wind Sword Hao and the girl mage were still in a relationship, many people didn't say anything, but they silently sent their blessings in their hearts.
If Queleta had been helped when he needed help, he would have been grateful.
"Queleta, you join up with Draven, take Miss Talia out of the battlefield, and lead the army over,
Angelo, Dustin, you two escort you, make sure to keep Miss Talia safe, there is no mistake! ”
"Understood!"
Queleta didn't say much, took a deep look at Darius, and immediately mounted his war horse, pulled up Talia, who was no longer able to fight, and placed her in front of her, and broke through in the direction of Delevin under the cover of the other two.
"General Darius, the grace of saving your life, is unforgettable."
Seeing Talia killed under the protection of everyone, Yon finally put his mind at ease, Yasuo trusted him so much, if Talia had any strengths and weaknesses, he didn't know how to explain to Yasuo.
"There is no need to be so polite, if there is no Master Yasuo to contain that monster for us, we will definitely pay a terrible price, not to mention that the master of the Wind Resisting Sword Technique Dojo has come all the way here to fight for the empire, we should be thanked,
Master Yongen, my military rank has just reached the rank of captain, but I don't dare to call me a general, just call me by my real name, otherwise the military position will be fine...... By the way, Master Yon actually recognizes my name? ”
An axe slashed open the Void Digger's head, and reflexively slashed the big axe at the other Digger, splitting it into two knots, Darius' eyes were red, but his mind became clearer, and it didn't affect his communication with Wynn in the slightest.
"Don't be a master...... Captain Darius's wolf squad is famous in the expeditionary force, and how many people don't know the name of the 'head wolf' Darius? I've admired him for a long time, but I never thought that the first meeting with the captain was like this.
Captain Darius, I wonder where the outpost is currently advancing? How far is it from here? When will reinforcements arrive? ”
"The outpost is less than forty miles from here, and if it goes well, it won't take more than two hours."
On the other side, Querieta and Delevin smoothly converged, and more than a dozen horsemen fought their way out of the encirclement, all the way to the north.
On horseback, Taria, who was hugged by Queleta's waist, looked back from time to time, but she could no longer see those overwhelming void monsters, and now that she was out of the battlefield, she was a little worried about whether her friends would be in danger.
Compared to the past, she has made amazing progress now, but every time she fights, the strength of the enemy still makes her feel very powerless.
Unlike in the past, the battle in this land corroded by the void energy is beyond imagination, this is not the weakness of the heart, in fact, the only two people in the entire exploration team who can play a real role are Yasuo and Yongen, including her, others have not played an irreplaceable role, more often they are dragging their feet, but no one says it clearly.
Talia's worries were seen by the delicate Qurieta, who spoke to comfort her.
"Girl, don't blame me for talking too much, instead of worrying about other people, it's better to hurry up and recover your strength now to deal with the next battle you may encounter.
In my opinion, only by taking care of oneself first can we have the spare energy to consider the safety of others, otherwise it is easy to disappoint others. ”
Talia turned her attention to Quileta, the woman in her eyes had a neat blonde medium and long hair, a resolute face, an atmospheric and dignified appearance, rich and sexy lips, and a neutral but powerful voice, which could be said to perfectly embody the sassy and heroic posture of a female soldier of the empire.
"Sister, you're right, thank you sister for your advice, I'll take a break."
Queleta nodded appreciatively to Talia, and let the girl rest on her own, feeling a little more favorable.
If this world was full of cool people like Talia, she wouldn't dare to imagine how beautiful this world would be.
After marching for about half an hour, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves woke Taria, who was sleeping soundly in Queleta's arms, and Talia opened her eyes and looked at the armored cavalry troops sweeping in from the north, and her spirits were lifted.
The mighty cavalry corps did not stop, avoiding the people who had stopped in place and continued to march south, and Cree left the army alone, tightened the bridles of Sgar and stopped not far in front of Qurieta, and said solemnly.
"So it's the Beast Squad? Lieutenant Qurieta, how is the situation with the enemy? ”
Without saying half a word of nonsense, Queleta responded loudly.
"Back to General Kereh! There are more than 1,000 Void beasts, and a woman who claims to be the Ninth Void Apostle has launched an attack on us, and my team members are currently fighting against the members of the exploration team! ”
Cree frowned, undisguised hatred on his face.
"The Ninth Void Apostle? I didn't expect these people to pop up again...... Alright, go back to camp and get some rest...... Sgal! Keep up with the big troops! the big bugs! ”
"Purr Quack!!"
Under the watchful eyes of Queleta and the others, Keree, who was riding Sgar, quickly caught up with the cavalry corps, and his back became smaller and smaller.
"Brother Yasuo, you must come back safely."
……
As the name suggests, the Broken Rock Ground is a barren place full of rubble piles and rock walls full of holes and pits, and the terrain is complex and varied, which is not conducive to oversized organisms.
As if blessed by the heavens, Yasuo, who had fled all the way, coincidentally came to the Broken Rock and got a chance to breathe.
In order to avoid the search of the Void Macrophage Worm, Yasuo held his breath and clung to the cave wall, his face pale and bloodless, his body trembling slightly from the pain.
At this moment, Yasuo's body was covered with bruises, his left forearm affected by the worm venom emitted an unpleasant stench, and the tight blood vessels were purple-black, obviously suffering from a minor injury.
Yasuo, who was poisoned by his body, had no time to deal with the toxin, so he could only forcibly lock the toxin in the position of his left forearm with magic force, and tear his shirt as a bandage to wrap around his left upper arm to prevent the venom from entering his body.
Outside the cave, Suzana controlled the giant worm Paherz around the gravel field with all her might, sometimes violently smashing the rocks in her way, she used the worm's tentacles to catch the smell of blood in the air, to her extreme annoyance, the air here has been filled with an inexplicable stench, this stench seriously interferes with Paherz's sense of taste, making it impossible for Paherz to determine Yasuo's specific location.
"I've left a deadly toxin on your body, and your hiding is meaningless to me, Lord Yasuo, the worm toxin doesn't taste good, right? Hehehe~ I don't need to do it, in a few minutes you will be a rotting corpse, what a pity. ”
"Come out, I'll give you one last chance, as long as you are willing to submit to Her Majesty the Empress and become my husband, I will let you enjoy happiness you can't imagine, even if you want to share Pahertz with me."
Yasuo closed his eyes tightly, the words of the Void Apostle would only make him more determined to kill in his heart, but nothing else.
Suzana was still persuading Yasuo, trying in vain to convince the man to surrender to her.
Before she was called, she liked tough and strong men, and after leaving the mortal womb, she also played a lot of tough guys who met the aesthetic personality, but no man could bring her such a heartwarming feeling as the Wind Sword Hero.
The process of chasing this man is like chasing a passing wind, she can see that the other person is right in front of her, but it is difficult to grasp, this process is the supreme pleasure for her.
"Life is so precious, why should you be obsessed? You have no chance of winning against Her Majesty, because you will not understand how powerful Her Majesty is!
Among the thirteen apostles, my strength ranks second-to-last, far inferior to others, and a man as powerful as you is no match for me, let alone against other apostles, is it possible that you naively think that killing some lowly bugs and ethereal spirit fish can be called victory? It's ridiculous. ”
Yasuo opened his eyes suddenly, and he didn't know if he was sure of him, but the Void Apostle Suzana actually revealed such important information in his words.
[In this way, the first apostle Marzaha has not appeared, I am afraid that he is also in some special state, if every Void Apostle can control such a terrifying Void Beast like the Ninth Apostle......]
Thinking like this, Yasuo's heart couldn't help but have a layer of gloom, due to the overuse of mana, an irrepressible urge controlled his body, and his throat was sweet, Yasuo covered his mouth and coughed up a small mouthful of bloody phlegm uncontrollably.
Even with all his strength to suppress the sound, the movement in the cave still reached Pahtz's ears, and Hepaz's tentacles instantly pointed in the direction where the sound came from.
Following Hepaz's instructions to look at the cave, Suzana instantly locked on Yasuo's location, the woman grinned, and the giant devouring worm immediately crashed into the cave where Yasuo was hiding,
Hearing the sound of shaking outside the cave, and knowing that his location had been exposed, Yasuo jumped out of the cave without hesitation, and the small hill behind him was directly bulldozed by worms, and the rubble was splashed.
"Look at your embarrassment now, how do you fight me?"
On the head of the giant devouring worm Paherz, Suzana condescendingly looked down at the desperate Yasuo, giggled, and threw the prepared void spell at Yasuo,
The purple light flashed, and Yasuo, whose body was hit by the spell, became extremely heavy as if it had been filled with lead, Yasuo snorted, and used the magic power in his body to forcibly disperse the spell applied to his body.
The man's arm trembled unconsciously, but he still held the knife tightly, and he never gave in.
Under Suzana's gaze, the man slashed off his left arm, because the bandage was wrapped in advance, and under the squeeze of the mana, the blood loss from the severed arm was not serious.
Blood Zhen, Na Dao, and strong wind surrounded the sword hero who had the heart to die, and the two looked at each other, and the face of the Ninth Apostle was completely cold.
"I have half a life left, enough to kill you."
