3. The Fall of the Lion King Chapter Ninety-Eight

"Hahaha, Gregory will crush her bones!" A heavily armed samurai rode out on a landed bird and slowly went into battle.

It was a gorgeous suit of armor, crafted by a master craftsman from the steel capital. The surface of the armor is inlaid with some ornate ornaments and decorations, symbolizing his once illustrious family lineage. In the sunlight, it reflects a dazzling metallic glow.

Even more striking is the helmet with dragon horns. It was the horns of a pair of ghost-level demonic beasts, which not only protected his head, but also showed his brilliant results.

Gregory pointed mightily at Lydia with an axe in his hand, and said in a loud voice: "Little girl, it's too late to surrender. ”

Lydia glanced at him, "You're not afraid of the heat, are you sure you can still stand up when you're so bloated?" Why don't you go back to your hometown and rest? ”

Gregory's voice was visibly unhappy, "Do you think the battlefield is a place where you play in fancy clothes and with toy sticks?" ”

Lydia sneered, "At least I won't wear it as a can." ”

"Ah, you brought it on yourself!" Grigory roared and rushed at Lydia, wielding a large axe violently, trying to split her into pieces.

In the face of such a ferocious offensive, Lydia did not retreat and recoiled. Kicking the Lycobo, he lunged head-on, dodging the attack before stabbing his opponent with a spear.

The spear and the axe collided, making a deafening sound. Their figures crisscrossed in the sun, and they fought for several rounds in a row without winning or losing.

"That guy, it doesn't look like it's going to work." In Balom's formation, a general who looked like a drunkard whispered to his men. It was the leader of the private army who had escorted the second son, Harold.

The subordinate whispered, "Yes, how can that girl's strength be compared to that bastard of Gregory." ”

Harold frowned at him, "I mean, Gregory is dying. ”

"How is it possible, boss, that guy is the strongest private soldier in the Ice and Snow Empire." As soon as the subordinate finished speaking, he suddenly smiled, "Although the boss deliberately gave it to him." ”

Harold carefully looked at the battle situation in front of the formation, and said in a low voice: "That female knight has superb spear skills and superb riding skills. Gregory was just a reckless man, and no matter how strong he was, there was always a time when he got tired. ”

As if to verify Harold's words, Gregory's attacks had begun to slow down, and his movements were becoming more and more flawed. Lydia's spear was still nimble enough to swim like a serpent, and after a few strokes, it stabbed Gregory in the chest and abdomen.

"Ahh You bedbug! In a fit of rage, Grigory picked up his tomahawk and delivered a fatal blow, as if trying to tear through Lydia's defenses and force a counterattack.

But Lydia's spear had reached the front of his throat.

When!

Gregory's helmet was picked up by the spear and fell to the ground, breaking one of its horns.

At that moment, he showed a trance in his eyes and looked at the young knight in front of him in astonishment.

A bloody hole had been poked out of his throat.

The heavy axe fell to the ground, and his body tumbled from under the chocobo, lying dead on the ground. It's like a pile of scrap metal, slowly decaying in the sun.

.

Seeing Gregory's defeat, Balom roared angrily: "Rubbish! The people of the Ice and Snow Empire are all waste! I should have blasted all this garbage out! ”

If he was just called "trash", Harold didn't care. But if he wants to be "blasted out", he will have to fight for his subordinates.

Harold grabbed the chocobo, axe in hand, and rushed straight out of the formation.

The axe is actually a heavy axe on the head of the spear, which can be both assassinated and chopped, and is extremely powerful. The axe is also inlaid with several soul stones. Harold ignited his soul flame, and a sharp icicle shot at the enemy line like a crossbow arrow: "I am Harold 'Winter Hell', if you don't want to die, surrender quickly!" ”

It was so hot that Lydia, who had just finished dealing with the Gregorian fever, didn't want to speak at all, but the knightly etiquette had to respond to each other. In desperation, she could only compress her words as much as possible with a bitter face: "I'm 'Princess of Gunfire' Lydia, let's not talk too much, let's fight directly." ”

"Princess of Fire?" Harold was stunned, and in this distraction, Lydia's spear had already poked in front of him, and he hurriedly parried, but he had already lost the opportunity.

"It's not good to be distracted during a duel." Lydia secretly shielded herself from the sun with her shield, and Harold was still powerless with her one-handed spear.

Harold parried more than two dozen moves, and suddenly held Lydia's spear with his axe and hook, and whispered, "You don't know me, but I know you." ”

Lydia's heart moved, and the move in her hand slowed down slightly.

Harold continued to swipe his false moves and collide with Lydia's weapon, "When the demons broke through the Sino Fortress, the Ice Wolf Castle would not be saved. The soldiers in the fortress were exhausted, and they were almost wiped out by the demons. It was you who led away the Demon Elder alone, so that my brothers and I had a way to live. ”

The two played tricks against each other in front of the battle, but in the eyes of others, these two weapons and two weapons fought back and forth extremely fiercely, and they fought for more than 50 rounds without winning or losing. The soldiers on both sides looked straight at each other, and they were asking who the main general on the other side was and why he was so powerful.

After a few more rounds, Harold suddenly made a flaw, allowing Lydia to stab straight in the right chest. Fortunately, Lydia retracted her strength in time, and although she saw red, the wound was not deep.

Harold screamed, leaned on the back of the chocobo, and whispered, "Take care, princess." Immediately feigned defeat and fled back into battle.

As soon as he entered the camp, Balom's burly body immediately jumped off the chariot, rushed forward angrily, picked up Harold and slammed it to the ground: "Defeated, useless waste!" ”

Balom's face was bruised, and he gritted his teeth and punched Harold in the stomach, "You shit! Rubbish! Rubbish! ”

Harold's body was turned upside down, red, white, and green were all over the place, and the whole person was curled up in a ball and couldn't even speak.

Seeing the filth on the ground, Balom was even more furious.

"Bring a stick and hit it hard!" Balom's roar shook the sky, and even the Red Pavilion soldiers on the opposite side could hear it, "Kill this useless waste for me!" ”

Several well-dressed guards with sticks the thickness of their arms immediately surrounded Harold, and the sound of the clubs blowing, screaming, and Balom's cursing was incessant.

Seeing that Harold was almost beaten to death, a sudden cry came from the battlefield: "Balom, can't you shit learn some etiquette like a human?" ”

Hearing this, Balom was actually a spirit!

This sentence is what General Ferrett, the "Golden Lion", often reprimanded him.

Turning his head, he saw Lydia glaring at him in the middle of the battlefield.

Balom hurriedly rode up to Ferret's Golden Feather Chocobo and ran to the front of the battle and replied, "Who are you?" Do I recognize you? ”

"I'm Lydia." Lydia was very unhappy with the apprentice, "What about your master, Mr. Ferrette? ”

Balom had no interest in women in the first place, and he was even less impressed when he saw this unfamiliar outfit. I only felt that the name sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember who this person was, so I made up an answer: "Felitt has been seriously ill for a long time. ”

The knight used honorifics to address the general, and Balom's inadvertent call for his name had already made Lydia aware of it, and carefully considered that Ferrett was not a frail person, and it was not his turn to go out with illness among the famous generals of the Black Steel Empire.

Lydia pondered for a moment and then asked, "How is the lady now?" ”

Balom, a reckless warrior, was completely unaware of Lydia's words, and went on casually: "Thank you for your concern, Iron Lady is in good health." ”

Lydia nodded her right shoulder with her left hand and saluted, "I have had a shallow relationship with Mr. Ferrette, and there is a private matter that I have never had a chance to ask, and his adjutant Nini owes me thirty gold coins, I wonder how Mr. Ferrett will discipline me?" ”

Balom didn't know the details of Lydia, and he replied very seriously and carefully, and suddenly laughed when he heard Nini's name, "Then I'm afraid you won't be there, she's dead." ”

In just a few words, Lydia had already sensed that Ferett was more than lucky, so she haha fooled over, "Although the battlefield meets, the knights should also salute before the soldiers." In that case, I beg you to convey to Mr. Ferrett, whose old friend has passed by here, and to show his sincerity that he will retire for three days. ”

This inexplicable retreat made Balom completely confused, seeing that Lydia waved her spear, and the drums and trumpets in the Red Pavilion army really withdrew one after another.

"Strange, strange, strange." Balom said several strange things, and he didn't understand the meaning of Lydia's coming and going until he retreated into the castle. While he was puzzled, the guards came with a stick on Harold and asked what to do with him.

Balom glanced at the half-dead Harold, "Useless waste, throw it out." ”

Unexpectedly, Harold suddenly shouted when he heard this, "General Balom, please give me another chance!" General, don't drive away my brothers! Checkmate! ”

"Shut up! Losing is waste! Balom was furious and raised his hand to give him a slap in the face.

"General Balom!" Harold suddenly stretched out his right hand and smacked himself in the face.

It was an unexpected move that Balom did not expect.

Harold stretched out his left hand again, and slapped himself in both hands in turn: "The general wants to beat me to relieve my anger, why bother you to do it." I fight, I fight, I fight. ”

The officers and guards on the side all laughed when they saw this.

"Interesting! Hahaha. Balom couldn't help but laugh when he looked at Harold's humble appearance, "This poor creature can still make people laugh, and it can be regarded as useful, so let's keep it for now." ”

Harold was grateful, and hurriedly crawled up to Balom to lick his shoes. Balom and the officers laughed even more unscrupulously, and after trampling Harold like a ball, they kicked him away and went to the Inner Fort to report the battle to the Iron Lady.

.

Originally, it was a great achievement to repel the enemy army, but Madame Iron was unhappy when she heard that it was a young girl, and when she heard that she seemed to have a deep friendship with Ferret, she could not contain her jealousy.

She smashed the glass and yelled, "Listen! If she comes again, she must be captured alive! I'm going to torture her and pierce her in the square with that slut! ”

Balom nodded in agreement, and although he looked in the direction of the secret room, he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to leave in a huff.

But the Iron Lady couldn't understand the hatred in her heart at the moment: "Take the whip!" Horse whips, nail whips, and nine-headed whips are all brought! The maid on the side hurriedly took out five wicker boxes and opened them separately, and they contained all kinds of soft and hard leather whips.

"Let's go!" Angry, she tugged at the key to the secret room and strode forward, as if every step she took was venting her irrepressible anger. A few maids behind him followed in fear, for fear that they would accidentally become corpses in the square.
