Chapter 42: The Battle of the Courtyard (Part II)

Due to Germain's orders, the Stitch Monsters were not obsessed with bloody abuse, but instead attacked the crystal en masse.

"Discovered!"

"It has to be blocked!"

Rowan and Alec swung their weapons harder.

And it's not just them, it's the soldiers on the field that are even more surprising.

What was the most important thing to the soldiers? They didn't have the status of knights, nor did they have the luxurious and durable equipment of the nobles.

In war, except for the village soldiers who are gradually eliminated because they can't fight, these people with swords, shields or halberds are the best candidates for cannon fodder.

So the most important thing for them is courage - the courage to face death as home!

"For Faren!

In the face of the unrivaled Stitching Monsters, these soldiers let out a fearless roar!

They raised their halberds and approached the stitching monsters in an organized manner, some being hooked and others being topped, allowing the bile to corrode the metal soles of their boots, and even the flesh and skin.

A man stepped forward, raised the shield in his hand to block the dark green bile, and when the shield melted, he threw it down, wielding his sword with both hands, and struggling to inflict wounds on the suture monster, large and small, even though he knew that those wounds would heal in less than ten seconds.

Then, when he is killed by the Stitchers, another man follows, using their lives to form a battle line that will never retreat.

"Cut, get out of the way, let me come!"

The scene in front of him was so poignant that he couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and Rowan spoke ill of him. But he stood in the middle of the soldiers, erecting his axes to block the deadly attacks of the enemy.

"Drink, ah, ah, !!"

Alec galloped, fighting spirit bursting through his body. Shaking the bile and poisonous blood off his way, he made a way and unloaded the stitchtail's arm with a razor-sharp blade.

"Hit their limbs! It will regenerate as well, but at least it will stop them from moving!"

He shouted, showing the soldiers what worked......

"Hahaha!! useless! useless! useless! A mere soldier can't be an opponent of a stitching monster!"

However, their actions only made Finn even more insane.

"Dissolve it with bile!

Be divided by a butcher's knife!

Get pulled by the meat hook and swallow it!"

He manipulated the stitching monsters, and carried out the torture and killing with all his heart's content and enjoyment!

Finally. The only people in the courtyard were the old duke, Rowan, and Alec.

"Despair, curse, and enjoy torture and death!"

Fein looked at the raised weapons in the water mirror. The warriors who fought and retreated let out an arrogant cry.

No matter what kind of strategy you have, it seems to be over. 】

The corners of Germain's mouth rose slightly, and in his heart he had almost equated the three of them with death.

"Come, first crush your hopes!"

Fein did not forget Germain's orders. He commanded the Stitcher to throw deadly flesh hooks at the blue vortex.

"It's useless! It's useless! Hahaha!!"

Looking at the three people on the screen, they desperately tried to stop it. He laughed arrogantly. There were so many stitching monsters that there was nothing they could do about it alone.

And that's exactly what happened, the huge iron hook crashed into the azure vortex, and then ......

But it was bounced off!

"Huh!?"

In an instant, a strong light erupted in the water mirror, and the magic power in the vortex began to spread, turning into countless small crystals flying around, and finally condensed into blue crystals. Float quietly in the courtyard......

Time went back a minute, and by this time the soldiers had all been killed. Only Alec and Rowan were left panting and standing in the dark green bile, the corrosive liquid sizzling beneath their feet, scorching the milky white fighting qi wrapped in the foot armor.

The scene was so desperate, but when they looked at each other, they both raised their weapons!

"I'm sorry, but you'll only be able to get through here if I'm dead!"

"Hmph, what a stupid thing to say, these stupid big guys have to pass me before then!"

The two not only did not lose their fighting spirit, but also joked quite leisurely.

[If the princess's troops are all warriors like this, I can really look forward to it.] 】

The old duke did not despair, Randall's three nobles were not in vain, and he could feel that the azure vortex was about to be completed.

So the stitchers attacked, and they threw their meat hooks in unison.

"Block down—!!"

Rowan and Alec leapt to their feet and flew the oncoming onslaught, and the old duke cast an area of effect magic to try to shoot down as many flying props as possible. However, in the face of absolute numerical superiority, there were still dozens of iron hooks that passed by them, hitting them heavily on the azure vortex!

"No—!!"

Just when they were in despair, the light burst out!!

The magic sketched out a miracle, turning into azure crystals and floating silently on the earth.

"Oh, that's Leah's magic ......"

The breathtaking beauty of the crystal tower made the old duke forget about the enemies behind him, no, in fact, even the stitching monsters, and the people who manipulated the stitching monsters, were attracted to the sight!

Then, they reflected again and began a new round of attacks!

Alec turned to meet him, but even faster was a pillar of light—a blue light blooming over the earth, and out of it was the valiant Countess!

"Cuilan - Throwing Guns - !!"

The wind roared and pierced through the three stitching monsters in one fell swoop, nailing them to the wall behind them!

Not only that, but as more and more pillars of light appeared, one warrior after another stepped out, raising their weapons and rushing towards the enemy.

"Karen ......"

"I've kept you waiting, Father. Leah felt the battle on this side as she teleported the Crystal Tower.

Alec. Rowan, I'm going to say - well done, you've done your job. Now it's up to us!"

Despite the conflicts between the families, neither Karene nor the old duke have time to take care of these things at the moment.

"Ah, please, Lord Karen!"

"Hah...... I'm tired, I'm tired. Hurry up and get these guys done, all I need is a bed now...... Oops!?"

The two warriors were already scarred by this time, and they were acting entirely by perseverance. Now that reinforcements arrived, they collapsed to the ground. At this moment, a small vial flew over and smashed into Rowan's head.

"You need this before you go to bed. My dear cousin. And you, Alec.

Hurry up and take the antidote, if you go to sleep now, you won't have to wake up again. ”

Jessica said as she stepped out of the light.

"Wait! That's not the way to go!"

Although reinforcements arrived. And everybody looks so good. But as the old duke once said, these stitching monsters are too restrained for warriors. Poisonous blood and bile consume their physical strength and life all the time.

"Water...... Please protect everyone......"

At this moment, a large number of clear springs appeared on the ground, washing away the dark green toxins and turning into a soft rain mist, purifying and healing everyone!

"Water Mage!"

The old duke looked at Melty as if he were looking at the rain in time, he didn't expect that there was a mage in this team who was so good at healing magic.

"Long time no see, dear Duke Brown. ”

Finally, Isabella walked out. She took the duke's hand and said gratefully. Not just for him to defend the Crystal Tower, but for all he had done for Randall during his absence.

"The Randall royal family will not forget the kindness of the Farainn family, you are a truly trustworthy and worthy partner in the kingdom!"

"Ah, thank you for your compliment, Princess Isabella. But for now, let us put aside these courtesy greetings, because there is a bigger problem for us to deal with. ”

Duke Brown drank a bottle of mana potion, turned around and raised his staff to the stitching monsters again, with the healing of the water mage, the warriors were able to have a fair fight with the aliens, but even so, without the fire support of the mage, the powerful recovery ability was still a nightmare!

"No, please don't push yourself too hard, as for the monsters, trust me, they're no longer a problem, because- our lovely Miss Leah seems to be really angry. ”

Isabella pulled the Duke around, and in front of their eyes, the last pillar of blue light lit up, and the cold-faced little Lori walked out of it.

"Leah......

Seeing his daughter, whom he had not seen for a long time, the Duke's voice was full of joy.

Little Lori smiled at her father, then turned her head and looked at the stitching monster with cold killing intent in her eyes.

"I've been in the Mage City for a long, long time, and now I'm back in my dear hometown, the familiar castle, and I'm seeing you monsters, such tasteless feasts in my favorite courtyard. ”

Leah, who was in charge of teleporting the crystals, could sense everything that was happening here, so she knew better than Isha and the others what was going on here before they arrived.

"Come on, the host of the banquet is here, let me entertain you guests who have no invitations. First of all...... It's the opening magic show......"

Little Lori took out a small pocket watch from her pocket, like a small object made of pure gold that exuded a charming brilliance in the night sky. It was the result of her long study of the magic of time.

"Oh time, hold your pace!"

Leah tossed the small prop into the air, then waved her wand, and the golden pocket watch cracked into glittering powder. Out of nowhere, a distant bell rang, and for a moment, the air seemed to thicken, and the stitching monsters' movements more than doubled under the bell. No, it's not just action, it's magic that affects everything—consciousness, action, and even the proud healing power.

"Do you like my magic show, and next, please enjoy the fireworks display at the banquet!"

Little Lori raised her staff, and countless azure dimensional orbs rose, transforming into a brilliant magic cannon launch base point in the night! (To be continued......)
