047 Escape from the Tiger's Mouth
At the same time, Gallows Square.
Elizabeth paced back and forth anxiously, and after a few walks, she was about to ask Michasara, "How long has it been?" ”
The cat man laughed, "It's only been less than ten minutes in total." ”
Then Elizabeth drove on.
Seeing her like this, the cat man couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, do you believe in the mage?" ”
"Of course I do." Elizabeth said without hesitation.
"Including what he said about the Mage Tower, the teacher, and the uncle?"
"Of course, I believe it all."
The dwarf hiding under the platform of the gallows to take advantage of the shade smiled: "Love, that's how magic it is. ”
Catman: "In that case, Your Highness, you see, there is no demon army now, is there any?" He didn't die. ”
"But he may have been wounded, captured, and being tortured by the enemy." Elizabeth's hands were clenched, and her lips were a little pale.
Flint: "I don't think so, didn't his teacher say it, he's the darling of fate." I feel that he can turn evil into good fortune and make great progress all the way. ”
"But Marika said his right eyelid jumped, and he was a prophet! No, we should return to the Wanderers' Guild, if he's already killed the culprit, we'll clean up the battlefield, and if he's caught, we'll find a way to save him! ”
The cat man came over and pressed the princess's shoulder: "Your Highness! That's at least the mage of the Seven Rings, and we've all seen Irwin point at death. You've also picked up a life! Our only chance of winning is the nine-ring scroll in the mage's hand. If he can't win, we can't win! ”
Elizabeth bit her lip and stared at the cat man for a few seconds before taking a deep breath and calming her mind.
"You're right." She looked down to look at her intertwined fingers, only to see only the breastplate, "I...... But I hate the feeling of powerlessness. If I could cast the Infernal Flame Ray, it would come in handy. ”
Mishasara was just about to say something when suddenly a scream was heard in the distance.
Everyone looked in the direction from which the screams came, and the first thing they saw was a column of rising smoke.
Flint: "On fire?" Your human buildings are really poor in fire prevention, like us dwarfs, there are so many furnaces, but the fires in a year are only in the single digits! ”
As soon as the words fell, many people ran out of the burning alley, shouting as they ran: "The robbers have killed someone!" The robbers have killed! ”
The next moment, a tall warrior in full armor and holding a two-handed sword rushed out of the alley at an astonishing speed, and it was a sword at the man who ran last. The heavy sword directly cut off the man's waist, and the blood cave spurted out.
The princess immediately scolded: "Bold! Where did the fanatics come from, who dared to massacre civilians in broad daylight? Get your name in! ”
The big man put the long sword on the iron shoulder pads, pushed the mask of the helmet up, and squinted his eyes to observe the princess carefully: "Oh, it looks like a noble lady!" ”
Behind him, three full-armor soldiers poured out of the alley.
Even if this group of people is fully armed, the armor is obviously of the same standard, and the weapons are all exactly the same.
Elizabeth also felt that something was wrong when she saw this, but she still maintained her majesty by inertia, and continued to scold: "Bold! I'm a duke......"
As soon as the cat man blocked Elizabeth's mouth, he hugged her and began to run, shouting as he ran, "Marika! Don't take advantage of the cold, something is wrong! Hold off these guys! ”
The drow elves don't like the sun, so they run to the shadows from the very beginning. After all, she's a wanderer, and launching raids from the shadows is her forte.
The dwarf slowly emerged from the shade beneath the gallows, slapped his shield with his fist, and said, "I can clean it up without a war hammer, and the shield will be enough." (He threw his hammer into Don's office, and now he was picked up by the king.) )
The cat man ran past the dwarf: "You can fight if you want, there is no fire support!" ”
"Hmph, there's no way you can get these cans for your arrows! Let me show you the dwarven signature headlet! With that, Flint patted the helmet on his head, completely forgetting that he was still a spellcaster.
Gotrek stood firmly behind the dwarves, as if the barbarians had instinctively found their best position in this formation.
Flint: "You guys! These! Chop Pieces! Your dwarven grandfather is here to ......"
Behind the four enemy men rushed out a whole group of armored soldiers.
Flint: "Oh! ”
He turned, slipped between Gotreik's legs, and scurried.
Gao Trick looked at the running dwarves, and then at the bright standard full-body armor of the armored soldiers, and also turned around and ran.
The group followed the cat man and rushed to the other side of the square.
Mishasara: "There's a carriage!" Requisition it! ”
So saying, she threw Elizabeth into the carriage of a carriage on the side of the road.
The driver of the carriage was unloading the goods, and when he saw that he did not want the carriage anymore, he threw down his things and drilled into the nearby stone house.
The cat man jumped into the driver's seat and shouted to the driver who ran away, "Don't! They obviously ordered the house, look at the smoke in the back! Don't nest in the house, run! ”
With that, she whipped violently, and the old horse pulling the cart slowly began to start.
The dwarf caught up with him, throwing his shield and helmet into the carriage, then leaping hard and grabbing the edge of the carriage with both hands.
Gortrek followed, grabbed the dwarven eagle like a chicken, threw it into the carriage, and then pushed the cart to help accelerate.
With the help of the brute force of the brute, the old horse started at a speed that he had never had before. Seeing that the speed had risen, Gotrek jumped into the carriage. In this way, the group became farther and farther away from the pursuing infantry.
Suddenly, two knights appeared at the corner of the intersection behind, and the two of them rushed towards the carriage with their bright riding guns!
Elizabeth shouted: "Scorching ray! ”
The princess's spell was successful, and the rays were shot, but because the carriage swayed, the orange beams did not hit the knight, but hit the wooden windows of the roadside buildings.
The wooden window was immediately set on fire.
"I'll do it again!" The princess shouted.
At this moment, a dark shadow descended from the sky and landed on the butt of the first horse, and the sharp blade plunged into the gap between the knight's armor helmet and neck guard. After a snort, blood stained the entire front of the knight's armor red.
After killing the first knight, Drow did a backflip and grabbed his helmet in the air before the second knight could react, and the dagger was once again inserted into the helmet.
The second knight let out a scream and fell off his horse clutching his bleeding helmet and visor.
Drow was not taken down by the knight, she grabbed the sign on the side of the road, completed the volley turn, and landed safely back on the empty horse.
There was only one horse left unridden, passively following the galloping companions and wagons.
Drow: "What's going on?" These should be soldiers who came up from the tunnel, how can there be war horses? ”
Mishasara turned around and said, "Why can't there be, the guild's smuggling channel can still send in a huge half-orc war wolf!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of horses' hooves came, and eight war horses appeared carrying knights, and most of these knights were holding crossbows.
Marika: "They must have found out that the princess was here!" These cavalrymen were all lightly armed cavalry, and they were supposed to be used to give orders! ”
The first wave of crossbow bolts is coming!
The dwarf stood up with his shield on his cart, blocking the largest brute in his body.
However, most of the bows and arrows went at the princess, and all of them aimed at the upper body! Two of the arrows hit the target accurately, only to be bounced off the force field formed by the bracers.
Seeing this, the pursuers announced loudly: "Don't hit the body, she is wearing steel armor!" It's the bulletproof shape of the latest steel armor! ”
Another pursuer scolded: "Wear steel armor and cast spells? Why are you kidding me? ”
Princess: "It's not steel armor!" It's a secondary sex trait, bastard! ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand again and prepared to cast a spell - when the barbarian suddenly said, "The pumpkin in the cart." ”
Elizabeth: "What? ”
The brute didn't explain, but picked up a large pumpkin and threw it at the cavalry who were loading their horses with crossbow arrows. The barbarian had great strength, and the pumpkin hit the head of the goods directly, and the hole was broken, and the goods were also dizzy, and they slipped off the horse.
Seeing this, the dwarf also picked up the pumpkin, he originally wanted to throw it himself, but after looking at his short hand, he immediately stuffed it to the barbarian: "You throw it, I'll give you a bomb!" ”
Barbarian: "Go!" ”
Another "pumpkin thrower" hit the horse, this time hitting the horse, directly knocking the unarmored horse to the ground.
The key is that the pumpkin is also very juicy, after it is broken, the stone road is full of pumpkin juice, and the horse behind may not have nailed the horse's paw well, and it slipped directly, and it fell to the ground and couldn't get up, and the rider's head hit the road tooth, and the blood flowed out.
Eight light riders were completely overturned by pumpkins.
The barbarian also wants to take a pumpkin on guard, and grab it back-
"Hey!" The dwarf shouted, "This is my head!" No more, no pumpkins! ”
Elizabeth stood on the empty carriage and maintained a gesture of raising her hand: "I...... What about me? Leave me one! ”
