Chapter 42: The Gift of the Gods

Whether the girl was a believer in the devil or not, Oro did not know.

But he felt that he was probably about to become a believer in the devil.

There is a crow that can speak human words, but he still chooses to believe its words.

So what else to do? Oro sighed, instead of being coerced by Clio and the maiden to fight the soldiers of the Ironclad to their deaths, it was better to trust the other monsters.

Anyway, he has no faith for a long time, and the church will not set its sights on him as a mercenary.

Ironstone Collar, the stronghold of the family, on the outskirts of Steel Town.

The mercenary Cleo is leading his men to occupy the largest road to the outside world in Steel Town.

And all kinds of wooden metal barriers were set up on the road.

Steel Town is surrounded by a ring of walls, and the family has placed a number of watchtowers on the walls, which are guarded by soldiers' bows and crossbows.

Even if their men are not afraid of death, in the face of this kind of defense, they will only be blocked under the wall without siege equipment, and they will have no power to fight back.

For this reason, at the suggestion of the girl next to him, Clio chose to block the road outside Steel Town and wait for the other party to take the initiative.

He also had his men dig trenches and build improvised bunkers with the steel and wood of Soottown to block the opponent's crossbow attacks.

He looked behind him, and there were more than 700 slaves in different equipment, some with mining pickaxes and hammers, some with long swords and leather whips, some wearing metal armor, others wearing leather armor that was too heavy, and even some wearing nothing at all.

All kinds of things are mixed together, and at a glance you can see that it is a ragtag army formed improvised.

But Cleo didn't panic at all, and laughed triumphantly.

"More than seven hundred soldiers! Even the Heyman family only had 500 soldiers, and more than 100 were killed! I've won this battle! ”

As he spoke, he greedily pinched the cheeks of the girl beside him, "When you occupy Steel Town, you will be the mayor's wife here!" ”

"Of course my dear." The girl watched as he stretched out her head and bit her chest, and the smile on her face grew stronger as she felt the pain.

At this time, in the direction of Steel Town in the distance, a chaotic footstep began to be heard.

The army of the family is on duty!

Cleo looked at the soldiers who were coming at them, and was about to shout for kill, when he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The sound was not only coming from the front, but there was an even more terrifying sound of stepping on the ground behind them!

"Damn it, three hundred cavalrymen! This is the most elite castle army in Blackstone City! I knew it was going to be over. ”

The middle-aged man beside him shouted, and hurriedly hid in a wooden bunker with Oro and another companion, Kate.

A rain of arrows had already been fired, and the arrows pierced the wood and dirt with tearing force.

Many slaves who had been slowing down a beat were hit and lay on the ground wailing.

"Oro, what are you going to do?" At this time, the middle-aged man looked at Oro in surprise, who was crawling on his stomach towards the center of the crowd.

That's where Cleo and the maiden are.

"If you keep going, you can only wait for death, I'm going to give it a try!" Aoro turned his head and replied.

The middle-aged man and Kate heard his words, and after looking at each other, they gritted their teeth and followed on their stomachs.

"Everyone, rush me! Kill those damn bastards! ”

After the rain of arrows, Clio jumped out and let out a roar.

Most of the slaves frantically charged towards the soldiers in front of them, arms held high.

The few people who were not affected by emotions wanted to retreat, but they were hacked to death by the people around them in a frenzy, and they had to move forward.

The only difference was in the center where Clio was, and he and the girl stood there as if they were being ignored, watching his men rush forward.

And now, three more people have been drilled here.

The middle-aged man and Kate looked at the girl and Cleo in front of them, their eyes looking suspicious.

Just now, they suddenly lost the figures of these two people, and they didn't even know what they were leaning in for.

It wasn't until they were pulled into the central area by Aurora that they recovered, and the two girls reappeared in front of them.

"I see, not only can it affect your emotions, but it can also make people ignore you and the people around you?" Oro gasped and stared at the girl viciously.

"Yes, it's a pity that you ran away for the first time, in order to compensate you, I let you see it every time after that, how about it?" The girl looked at him with a smile.

Seeing the reaction of the girl next to him, Clio, who had already regarded her as his own, had fire in his eyes and picked up the big axe in his hand.

"Boy, if you dare to be a deserter, then die!" He swung his axe and slashed at Oro's head.

"Be careful, Cleo is already a professional fighter who has broken through once."

The middle-aged man hurriedly wanted to help, but Oro had already made a move in advance.

"Don't worry, I'm not the same person I used to be!"

Urro gritted his teeth and roared as he remembered the pain of being clawed into his body by a flock of crows in the woods not long ago.

The infused mana trajectory began to work, and his body instantly began to swell.

The muscles of his whole body continued to grow, the nails of his hands became longer and sharper, showing hooks like bird claws, and behind him there were two bulges, from which a pair of fleshy wings grew, and the black feathers on the wings proliferated, like a crow spreading its wings.

Aoro stretched out his hand to block, and the hook of his fingertips gripped the giant axe that slashed at it, even piercing into the metal.

A steady stream of power poured out of his body, and he felt completely different!

A backhand punch knocks Clio to the ground, and just as he prepares to take out his enemy, an extreme headache and dizziness suddenly strikes through his mind.

Ao Luo couldn't help but crouch on the ground and hold his head, and then his heart uncontrollably produced a killing feeling of thirst for blood!

"Oro? What the are you? The middle-aged man and Kate were startled by him, and their eyes were blank.

Compared to these two, the girl's face was full of incredulity.

"Are you a Red Moon Cultist? No, it can't be, I've made sure you're not! The girl's expression changed from surprise to excitement, even to madness.

"Could it be that this is, a gift? How can it be! How can there still be the gifts of the gods in this era! ”

As soon as Oro wanted to get up and make a move, the girl had already pounced on him and put her hands on his temples.

The cold and comfortable touch kept coming, and Oro's crazy emotions were gradually suppressed.

He couldn't help but cry out in comfort, and his body began to return to its original human form.

"If this is truly a gift, then you are the current Divine Son of the Red Moon Order!

Haha, when I think of the old immortals of the Red Moon Order, knowing that my Divine Son has fallen into the hands of the hostile Silver Moon Order, I can't wait to see their painful looks! ”

The girl couldn't help but laugh, then picked up Oro, who was powerless to resist, and turned her head to look at the middle-aged man and Kate behind her.

"Follow me, and I'll get you out of here."

At the very center of the battle between the two armies, the girl looked at the soldiers around her with disdain, and left safely with the three of them as if no one was around.

And above them, crows were circling.
