64 Beheadings (B)
The entire legion was divided into three parts, from the west, south, and east, and gradually surrounded the demon camp, and when it was only three thousand meters away from the demon camp, news came from the front.
The Eye of the Holy Maiden took the message from the scouts in front of them and learned that the demons in front of them were completely unprepared.
The member of the Eye of the Holy Maiden said, "Your Excellency Anka, do you want to move on?" ”
Ankka looked up as best at the camp in front of him, and found that the entire demon camp was indeed burning with flames all the time, black smoke enveloping the entire camp, and the sound of gongs and drums was heard from time to time.
While Ankka was thinking, the head of the regiment rushed over and said, "Please allow me to rush in first!" ”
Ankh responded, "I don't know what's going on inside, please calm down." ”
Ankh then pointed to the raised heights in front of him and said, "Can you camp there?" ”
With the consent of a few representatives, the entire legion was stationed on the high ground, and trebuchets and ballistas were arranged.
The member of the Eye of the Holy Maiden said, "Your Excellency Anka, the battlefield is changing rapidly, please give orders!" We can't spend it here all the time. ”
"I'm just worried about whether there will be fraud inside, can I send some more scouts?"
"Three scouts have been sent out, but there has been no news."
"There's a lot of flat land around here, there's nothing to hide, and it looks like those scouts have met in the demon camp."
Soon some news came from the scouts ahead.
Ankka took two notes, one of which still had a message about the camp's lax defenses, while the other said that the entire demon camp was well defended.
Anka looked at the trebuchet outside and asked, "What is their range?" ”
"About a hundred meters."
"Can you send them to the front?"
"Absolutely."
As the order was given, countless retinues pushed the trebuchet forward with difficulty, while the flanks were full of fast-charging cavalry, and the heavily armored paladins were steadily advancing in the front and left and right positions of the trebuchet.
Ankh stared at the black smoke that was beginning to become choppy in the demon camp and shouted, "Let the front stop the defense, and the remaining paladins will go to the rear to search." ”
Then Ankka rode his horse to the front and said, "Who can go to the camp and charge?" ”
The head of the regiment pushed away the paladins who were enthusiastically signing up in front of him and shouted, "I'm going too." ”
Ankh nodded in agreement.
After that, the regimental commander advanced to the camp with dozens of paladins and a dozen heavily armored paladins.
"I'm the first."
The regimental commander shouted out in the face of the empty camp.
As soon as the words fell, countless arrows were shot out, and the regiment commander waved his hand in embarrassment to resist, and with the increasing number of demons around him, everyone could only escape quickly.
Ankka heard a whirring sound overhead, looked up and saw that it was actually several demon-tainted dragons flying over everyone's heads, and spit out fireballs on the high ground just now, destroying the command center.
"Damn."
Ankka then turned around to find that the paladins behind him had been caught in a bitter battle with the giant horned demon that had jumped from the dragon's back.
"Is it surrounded? The ballista is aimed at the Wyvern, and the trebuchet is aimed at the camp to fire. ”
"Your Excellency Anka's trebuchet doesn't have enough range!"
"Then replace it with an iron ball filled with black powder."
As the order was given, the moment before the regimental commander and they escaped, iron balls rained down on the camp.
A deafening thud followed, and three wyverns landed in response to the ballista's volley.
And on one of the wyvern corpses, the demon commander slowly got up and looked at Ankka.
Ankh shouted, "Keep throwing crossbow arrows and iron balls." ”
Ankka then rushed over to fend off the Demon Commander's advance.
"Humans, you still dare to come."
"But how can I kill you?"
The magic sword collided with the demon commander's spear and burst out of sparks, the spear swung and threw an arc on Ankka's head, Ankka tried his best to dodge but was still cut by the other party on the forehead, and Ankka also leaned over the opponent and swung out a sword, only to see the magic sword slashed into the demon commander's abdomen, cutting its armor very easily, so that Ankka could see the other party's abdomen that was cut out.
The Demon Commander clutched his abdomen and said, "I'm glad I'm not human. ”
Ankka confronted him with a sword, and as the blood from his head dripped into his eyes, Ankka nervously stepped back.
When Ankka opened his eyes, he found that the Demon Commander's spear was already close to him.
At this time, the regiment commander suddenly appeared behind the demon commander and swung his sword, the demon commander was pained and waved his hand to knock the regiment commander's head out of a big pit, and the regiment commander spurted out a face of blood and fell to the ground without life.
Ankka, taking advantage of the Demon Commander's lack of attention on him, rushed over with his sword and stabbed it through.
"Ahh
Ankka and the Demon Commander shouted together, and finally, as Ankka raised his hand and counted his sword, the Demon Commander fell to the ground, leaving only the strength to breathe.
Ankh slashed off its head with a sword, and the souls of it and the entire demon legion were all in the air, and finally burrowed into the ground.
Ankh instantly felt that his injuries had been healed, and the being said happily, "Well done! ”
After the demon vanished, the entire legion was thrown into a burst of cheers, and Ankka felt a little tired, and just as she tried to sit on the ground to rest, she was lifted up by several people and cheered.
In the evening, the group returned to the paladin's camp and the horsemen who had lost their tribe said, "Mr. Anka, can you ask the paladins to allow us to live around their camp?" ”
"Why? Is it safer? ”
"We hope that the Paladins can train us, because we saw that the Paladins are well-equipped and well-trained this time, and if we did the same in the first place, maybe we wouldn't have lost our home."
The representative of the paladin slowly walked over and said, "Of course, you can, but you can only train in grazing within the range we have demarcated. ”
After that, the paladin turned his head and said, "Can Lord Anka come to the paladin's burial ceremony?" ”
Ankha nodded and said, "It's my pleasure." ”
Ankh then witnessed the bodies of the paladins being cremated in batches, the flames being extinguished within the allotted time, and the clergy from the church would put the bones that were not completely burned in the ashes into the boxes.
The boxes are inscribed with the names of the deceased's families, their families, and their deeds, after which they are transported to the memorial hall of the largest cathedral nearby, where the clergy gather to sing their praises.
Almost all the paladins gathered together, singing praises and blessings that their brothers could ascend to heaven and continue to fight for the gods.
Ankka found the members of the Eye of the Virgin who were recording the details of this battle and asked, "Are you going back to the City of the Tower?" ”
The other nodded in response.
"Can you give this to the Holy Maiden, please? I think that should be important for the future. ”
The other man stopped recording and looked up at a piece of parchment with twisted text and a dark red spearhead wrapped in twisted text that Ankka handed over.
"What is this?"
"It's the demon's words and weapons that were given to me by a dead tribe member, and I found that these words can only be enchanted if they are arranged according to the correct rules, and there is no need to consume a lot of precious materials, I hope that the Holy Maiden can decipher the words on them, which may help in the future war of doom."
After hearing this, the other party knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you for your dedication, the glory of the saint will always accompany you." ”
"Get up, please! It's not my credit. ”
"You're so humble."
After saying that, Ankh left first, citing unbearable sleepiness.
