Chapter 107: Dostol's Turning Point (Part II)
"Are you alright, sir?" the man who looked like a battalion officer leaned closer and bowed to Cecil in front of him.
Cecil looked at the big pit in front of him, then at the battalion officer beside him, and with a 'snap', he hit the battalion officer on the head with one hand.
His ears were still ringing, and he couldn't hear what the battalion officer was saying, and as for why he hit him, he had to ask Cecil himself, probably because he was stunned.
"You, go down and have a look!"
Pointing to the battalion officer in front of him, Cecil slapped his head a few times with his hand before he felt more sober.
Being stared at by Cecil, the battalion officer regretted it for a while, if he had known this, he wouldn't have been in a hurry to run over just now, but what was the use of regretting, the battalion officer had to walk towards the hole with a bitter face, not to stretch his neck to take a look, knowing that after Cecil urged three times, he finally walked to the side of the hole.
The entrance of the cave is not small, the diameter is two meters, probably because of the explosion just now, there is still fine dust floating at the edge of the hole, and the hole is black, and there is no bottom in sight.
Slowly squatting down at the entrance of the cave, the battalion officer glanced back at Cecil, only to see that Cecil was staring at him closely, and many of the rest were also nervously looking at the entrance of the cave, and several people showed gloating expressions.
"Go down!"
Cecil urged again, but before the words fell, a laugh came, and he looked sideways at the person next to him, the laughter was made by him, Cecil frowned, "You, too!"
There was a commanding tone in his tone, and this sentence made the battalion officer secretly happy in his heart, because the man who was targeted by Cecil was one of those who gloated.
Both of them slowly leaned down, trying to see more about what was going on, but both of them were disappointed, so they had no choice but to go in and have a look.
The battalion officer first tried to reach the ground with his foot, and then he was pulled by another man and slowly lowered his body.
Little by little, little by little, until the battalion officer's whole body was in the hole, and he didn't step on the ground.
"Ah......h
Suddenly there was a scream, the battalion officer looked panicked, and desperately grabbed one person at the entrance of the cave with both hands, and then there was another scream, and both of them fell into the hole in an instant.
At this time, Cecil and the people around him hurriedly took a few steps back, his face gradually turned pale, since he came in with the orc pursuit, and then found such a hole, at first this hole was not too big, but just as Cecil was about to get closer to check, a loud noise made everyone fall to the ground like a reflex.
"Todge!"
A man beside Cecil shouted from afar at the entrance of the cave.
He called the battalion officer, but there was no response from inside the cave for a long time, and after waiting for a while, just when everyone thought that the two had died, a faint voice suddenly came from the cave, although the sound was very small, but it was obvious that it was from the battalion officer.
"Get over here!" said Cecil, who walked first, and the guards also hugged him.
Leaning slightly into the cave, Cecil couldn't see anyone, "Todge, where are you, what's down there?"
Cecil and the others circled around the entrance of the cave, all looking down, and although they could not see anything, Toggy in the cave could clearly see the people at the entrance of the cave.
"Your Excellency......" Toji's voice came from the cave: "We're fine, there's a slope here, it's five or six meters deep, I don't know why I can't see the bottom." ”
Hearing Togy's words, Cecil pondered for a while, to be able to see the situation inside the cave at a depth of five or six meters according to normal times, and besides, the entrance of this cave is not small, and the light is enough, but it is dark to look at.
"Go, follow me down. As he spoke, Cecil leaned down into the cave.
The hole began to fall to the ground, but further down was a slope, and it was precisely because of this slope that Togi did not fall.
Cecil's 3,000 men and horses were divided into three parts, one of which he himself took around the entrance of the cave, and two of them, one to chase down the orc deserters, and the other to be left out of the woods by Cecil.
And following Cecil was a few hundred people from the first battalion of the Second Banner Regiment, after the abnormal fight with the orcs just now, his soldiers were also injured a lot, but fortunately, the orcs were already frightened and did not resist strongly, otherwise the casualties of Cecil's subordinates would be much greater.
"Adult ......"
Just as Cecil was about to slowly descend, a staff officer next to him shouted.
Cecil looked at him questioningly, then smiled slightly, waved his hand to signal that it was okay, and then stepped cautiously into the hole.
Naturally, there were people next to him who grabbed him, and several people held the hilt of their swords on the side, just in case of sudden changes.
Although he was extremely careful, Cecil still didn't take a step, and his feet slipped and he was about to fall, but before he could call, Cecil was held by someone on his shoulder, and Cecil looked back and saw that it was Toggy who had started to come in.
Soon after Cecil entered the cave, nineteen more soldiers followed, the entrance of the cave was only two meters in diameter, but there was a world below, as far as the eye could see, it was enough to be more than ten steps away, let alone a place where it could not be seen.
This hole is also strange, just five or six meters can not be seen clearly, but in this cave can be seen more than ten meters, when a few more people come down, or Toggie in front, Cecil with more than 20 subordinates, slowly walked towards the cave.
When they could not see clearly, several soldiers took out flints and lit their fire-starting tools, and by the slight light, everyone was able to advance.
As everyone went deeper, a faint mist emerged from the deepest part of their faces, and as soon as this mist came out, everyone felt that the strength in their bodies was rapidly decreasing.
"Not good...... Take the adults out!"
The first person who felt the danger was Toji, who was at the forefront, and his own cultivation had also reached the third level of martial arts, and he was at the front of the team, so he hurriedly said at the first time.
"Do you want to leave, let's stay!"
Just when everyone wanted to retreat in a panic, a voice full of enchanting power suddenly sounded.
As this voice sounded, Cecil and the others felt dizzy for a while, and then fainted on the ground, seeing that they were unconscious, but they were still breathing smoothly.
"Humph......"
The same voice was still heard, only a cold snort was heard, and as a bewitching figure loomed, Cecil on the ground disappeared in place, and the enchanting figure disappeared with Cecil.
When Cecil and the others passed out, the soldiers outside did not know what was happening in the cave, but heard the shouts of a soldier standing in the distance, and then the soldier slashed at the man next to him like crazy.
I saw the sword shadow flashing, and the head of the person beside him had been cut off and half pulled, leaving only a little skin and flesh connected, which looked extremely terrifying.
Everyone also heard the sound, and after seeing this scene, many people stood on the spot, and the person who started screaming killed the person next to him, and then pounced on another person who was closest to him, and then everyone reacted, and three people blocked the man's way side by side, and killed the man in a few clicks.
Before everyone could catch their breath, several more soldiers rushed over like the same one just now......
And just when they didn't know what to do, there were more screaming bats above everyone's heads.
Seeing this scene, everyone's faces turned slightly, and they all thought of the situation encountered by the Glory Banner Regiment at the same time, at that time in the Nineteenth Corps, the attack encountered by the Glory Flag Regiment had been rumored for a long time.
Seeing the current scene, everyone was determined, although they were not very sure, but they were eight or nine points.
"Kill me, kill me, kill those crazy guys, they're not human anymore. ”
One of the captain-like men shouted first, calling such mad humans devils, even though they had not seen real devils.
Before the captain could finish speaking, a sword tip suddenly appeared in his chest, and blood quickly stained his clothes, and then the broad spine and muscle junction, and occasionally a bloody sword spurted out, shooting directly into the face of the sword's owner.
"Uh......"
There was a faint sound in the captain's throat, and before he could look back to see who had stabbed him, the man behind him jerked his sword back, and brought another burst of blood.
I saw that the man behind him slowly stretched out the tip of his tongue, licked the blood from the corner of his mouth slightly, and then roared, and slashed at the captain who had fallen to the ground in front of him, until there was a blur of flesh and blood in front of him, and then, he roared and walked towards the human soldiers in the distance.
This happened not only around the entrance of the cave, but also happened to the soldiers who stopped outside the woods, but soon, with the arrival of the Glory Banner Regiment, after killing dozens of infected people, the soldiers of the Nineteenth Corps slowly stabilized their positions.
After asking Mincecil where he was, and sending someone to Dostol to ask for the fire magicians, Sirin rushed into the woods with a dozen cavalrymen.
Due to the dense woods, the cavalry was sometimes inferior to the infantry in it, so Xilin handed over the men and horses of the brigade to the command of Dyna, and asked them to go to the 19th Corps garrison, and asked him to inform the general of the 19th Corps of the situation here.
A dozen horses galloped through the forest, much slower than in the flat grassland, but still flying at a speed, and in a few moments they came to the place where the mouth of the cave was.
Xilin and the others turned over and dismounted, looking at the surroundings, and a chill rose in everyone's hearts.
The scene in front of them was like a human Shura field, much worse than the village full of broken limbs and broken flesh in Xilin's memory.
As brave men who are accustomed to fighting on the battlefield, they have not seen a tragic scene, but they are really a little unbearable to see as miserable as they are now.
Slightly stunned, Xilin quickly reacted, and glanced at the surrounding situation again, and finally focused his eyes on the entrance of the cave.
Cilin walked towards the entrance of the cave step by step.
"Cillin ......" Augustin pulled him.
Slightly pushing away Augustin's hand from his wrist, Sirin still slowly approached the hole.
Without much hesitation, Cillin was the first to jump in, and with a light turn, the momentum was easily defused, and Cillin stood where Cecil and they began to enter the hole.
Augustine and Arrin followed, while the rest of the group waited at the entrance of the cave.
"Adult ......"
Just as Xilin was about to go to the deep dark place, Yarlin whispered and stepped in front of Xilin.
Cillin didn't shirk either, just followed closely behind Arlin.
It didn't take long for the three of them to see Toggy and the others lying on the ground.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Arrin leaned over and pushed Togi, "Wake up!"
The reason why Togi was chosen was, of course, his battalion officer's costume.
After Yarlin's push and tug, and the last kick, Todge opened his eyes in a daze.
"Who...... Who called me ......"
Toji, who had just woken up in a coma, couldn't speak clearly, but he felt that someone was pushing him, so he asked inarticulately.
"Get up!"
Seeing his appearance, Cillin's brows furrowed tightly and he kicked Toggie's ass and thighs.
"Oops......"
Although Xilin's kick did not condense his martial arts, he also used enough strength, and this kick was enough for Toji.
With a cry of pain, Toggy stood up, looked at Xilin in front of him, and then twitched Augustin Yarlin, and then a few clever people, Xilin He recognized it, as the flag officer of the Glory Banner Regiment who fought side by side, he was really blind to these dog eyes if he didn't know it.
"Your Excellency!"
Todge jerked his chest up and saluted Sillin.
"What about you?"
Xilin just nodded and asked directly.
Toggy didn't think much about it, and the Lord Xilin on the other side asked the adult, it must be the Lord Cecil who was referring to him, and hurriedly pointed to the ground, but he didn't say a word?
"Where's your lord?" said Todge, muttering, but he couldn't find Cecil's shadow.
"Where are you adults?"
Xilin asked coldly again.
"My lord, I and the general entered this cave, and when we walked to this place, we suddenly felt a little tired, and we didn't know anything!" said Todge, the drops of sweat on his forehead almost rolling to the ground.
"Hmph......" Cillin snorted at Toji again, and then asked at the person next to him, "Is that so?"
The man's face was flustered, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Yes, yes...... My lord!"
At this time, all the subordinates brought by Cecil woke up, and one of them pondered for a moment, and hurriedly said: "My lord, there seems to be a woman's voice, I saw the woman's appearance before I passed out.
"What does it look like?"
Xilin's expression tightened, and he took a step forward and asked.
"What kind of look...... "The man scratched his head with his hand, "it's beautiful, like a goddess!"
Hearing this, Sirin had already determined that it was Maya again.
At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from outside, it was not Maya, who could it be.
I saw Maya standing in the air, facing the direction of the cave entrance, and said in a flattering voice: "Little brother Xilin, we meet again, don't you come out to meet my sister and me......?"
