"Ladies and gentlemen! It has now been confirmed that we have been tricked into this grain robbery as a conspiracy by the military, and now we are surrounded by heavy troops. This incident was a major miscalculation on the part of my Battis in the process of gathering intelligence. Because of my own mistakes, I have put us in a siege, and I am ashamed of my brothers. It's not a pity for me Battis to die. But right now, we still have hundreds of thousands of our compatriots in the encirclement. Therefore, I intend to charge eastward, attract enemy fire, and create an opportunity for our relatives, young and old, to evacuate. I need some warriors alongside me. But here, there may be no way back."

Ji Xun Alice came to the assembly point in the central square of the city, and happened to see the tragic speech of the leader Batis.

The leader of the rebel army did not hide the truth.

He even took all the blame on himself.

But in fact, everyone knows that even if they know that Valen City is cheating, they will still take the risk to try.

Because if there is no food, the millions of rebels will die sooner or later.

No one else can do better than Battis.

So, no one blames.

Only absolute trust and surging blood.

This is a group of gladiators with the blood of battle flowing all over their bodies.

They are also comrades-in-arms who have lived and died together with Battius for many years.

Even if they knew that the probability of surviving the breakthrough was slim, instead of retreating, everyone enthusiastically joined one by one.

"Chief, I'll go with you!"

"I'll go too!"

"Count me in on the Ollins one!"

"Batis, my brother, we have fought together for so many years, and today, we are also going together!"

“.”

The square was full of people.

That heroic, fearless, and tragic aura gathered together and churned.

It's like a burning flame, getting stronger and stronger.

Rao is Ji Xun didn't expect that in a desperate situation, he didn't see retreat, he didn't see frustration, but saw such a surging and high-pitched emotion.

He can absorb negative emotions and can also feel this bravery clearly.

At this moment, there seemed to be a dazzling white light rising from these people in his eyes.

One by one, the gods of war are possessed like Valhalla, and they are fearless.

This is the light of courage,

Sharp as a spear!

Steady as a shield!

"What an exaggerated courage."

Ji Xun also saw such a scene for the first time, and he was extremely emotional.

It was as if he had been affected by this tidal wave of courage, and his blood couldn't help but get excited.

Thoughts are racing, thoughtful.

Once again, he observed the battle from the perspective of an onlooker, as if he had realized something he had not been aware of before.

If it weren't for this battle, would they have been so courageous?

A thought popped up in Ji Xun's mind: it's war. Does it make a hero?

Suffering is like a hero's baptismal ritual.

The more dangerous the situation, the more dazzling the glow of humanity becomes.

Suddenly, Ji Xun seemed to have grasped something, and said in surprise: "Is this the danger that the palace seniors said is the best tempering of 'Yi'."

He clearly felt that his "will" also resonated with this higher and higher courage.

Become sharp, sharp.

That's the will to be fearless.

Courage doesn't come out of nowhere, and it's not innate.

It is because of the desperate situation that it blooms with a glow.

And at this moment, in Ji Xun's eyes, there seemed to be one fate line after another on these people.

Rao was that they had reached the end, but the fluctuations suddenly surged.

The vast majority of people in this world have lived an unremarkable life. But at a certain point, he made a certain decision, and it was as if his whole body suddenly bloomed with dazzling light.

Without war, this would probably be a group of ordinary people who can't even leave half a word in the history books.

They may be artisans, peasants, slaves

From birth to old age and death, they will walk on a smooth line of fate.

But at this moment, they all bloomed with the most brilliant glow of their lives!

With the brilliance of life, people only bloom once in this life.

At that moment, he will shine like a night firework.

While thinking, Ji Xun and Alice also carefully observed everyone in the square.

The more people gather, the higher the momentum.

At this moment, a flaxen-haired boy with a long sword hurried to the square, and shouted meaninglessly to Batis, who was standing on the statue of the fountain: "I'll go with you!" ”

The boy was not tall, fifteen or sixteen years old. The muscles are edged and angular, and they are considered strong among ordinary people.

But he stood in a group of gladiators, and looked very thin.

As soon as this person came, Ji Xun's eyes immediately looked over.

Judging from the qi machine, this is a second-order melee card master.

The strength is not too outstanding, and it is not in the first batch of siege personnel, no wonder I haven't seen it.

But the boy seemed to be familiar with many gladiators.

As soon as he came, he was pushed outside by several strong men.

The boy was anxious, as if he was about to cry, "Uncle Black Snake, let me pass!" ”

Seeing this, the man immediately laughed and said, "Hey, crybaby, this is an adult's business." Food still needs to be protected and transported, so don't come to join in the fun. ”

As he spoke, the others responded, "Yes." Go and protect Aunt Daisy from them. They need you more. ”

Ji Xun could also see that these gladiators didn't want this big boy to participate in a breakthrough operation with no chance of survival.

The old people saw in him the last bit of hope for memorial.

However, although the boy's eyes were full of tears, he held his head high and said in a firm tone: "No! I'm already a qualified gladiator! I'm a warrior! My destiny should be to die on the battlefield, and when I die, my soul will enter Valhalla and drink with the gods! ”

These words have a tragedy and heroism that does not match his age.

This is the ancient saying handed down by the ancestors of these gladiators in the extremely cold wasteland.

They never fear death in the gladiatorial arena, because they believe that the souls of those who die in battle will return as heroic spirits.

As soon as these words came out, the gladiators fell silent in unison.

Looking at the silent and complicated gazes of the crowd, the boy mustered up the courage and shouted, "Also, I'm not called 'crybaby'!" From now on, my name is Goron Frederick, the heroic Frederick! ”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a lit candle, and the young man's whole body bloomed with glow.

That fearless heroic aura is not even weaker than anyone here.

Ji Xun and Alice glanced at each other, and their expressions were happy.

Got it!

Sure enough, heroes can't be hidden!

Although there had been speculations for a long time, Alice also felt that it was a bit of a coincidence that she found the ancestor of Aragon in this way.

It was as if I had been blessed with luck.

Two thousand warriors were soon gathered in the square.

The situation is critical, and the more delayed it is, the more dangerous the situation in Valen will be.

Battius did not delay, and shouted: "Brothers, follow me out of the city!" ”

"Rush!"

"Rush!"

"Rush!"

The crowd responded passionately.

Although high-level card masters are fast in movement, they still need transportation to run long distances.

The Talon Dynasty was very advanced in mechanical technology, and the rebels also plundered a large number of steam locomotives after entering the city.

There are also various psychic objects and Warcraft landlines.

Tigers, leopards, lizards, spiders, ostriches. For a while, all kinds of strange mounts appeared.

In the blink of an eye, this group of strange and miscellaneous knight legions followed the Battisfish out of the east gate.

Ji Xun has a steam motorcycle in his storage ring at any time, and he can ride it away when he takes it out.

But Alice is a card master in the Southern Continent, and there is no mechanical technology at all.

Just when Ji Xun was curious about how she was going to keep up, the girl suddenly condensed a rolling spell all over her body.

Alice is a war slave and doesn't have any cards on her, and her spells need to be condensed on her own, which is a little slow.

After waiting for two breaths, he looked at her eyes and said softly: "Fairy Tale Town: Cinderella's Midnight Chariot!" ”

Ji Xun looked at it and was also curious: "Spiritism? ”

It seems to be.

It doesn't seem to be.

He watched as a blue psychic formation appeared at Alice's feet, and the light grew brighter.

In the blink of an eye, an eight-horse ghost carriage with soul flames in its eyes appeared in front of him out of thin air.

And an even more surprising scene appeared.

As soon as this technique was used, Alice herself was transformed.

A linen robe was transformed into a gorgeous court dress, and the aqua blue dress was crystal dotted, like the stars on a summer night. Stepping on the shining crystal slipper, the crystal is shining, as if the Milky Way is circulating.

She also wore a very large old witch's hat on her head, and a strong sense of mystery came to her face.

Not only the outfit, but also the appearance, hair color, height, and even the temperament have all changed!

It's like going from an ordinary civilian girl to a . An elegant and mysterious witch princess?

Coupled with the carriage of the undead, this temperament is strange.

Cinderella transformation at midnight?

Hiss.

It's not like a fairy tale I've ever heard.

The corners of Ji Xun's eyes jumped inexplicably.

Although he knew that Alice had disguised her true appearance, he was also amazed to see her method of changing people.

In terms of the effect of the change in appearance and temperament, this is no worse than his clown mask.

"White Crow" originally represents nothingness, and [4 of Hearts - Witch] is a mysterious way.

This secret method of creating things out of thin air is outrageous.

I also saw a magic mystery method, and Ji Xun also felt that he had a lot of knowledge.

After all, in the Eastern Continent, the high-level inheritance of the [4 of Hearts] career sequence has long been broken.

Alice summoned the ghost carriage, looked at Ji Xun's motorcycle, and didn't forget to ask: "Mr. Ji Xun, are you in my carriage?" My ghost carriage is very defensive."

In her opinion, although Ji Xun is resourceful, there is a high probability that he is a warlock professional.

In this kind of battle, the ability to survive is not necessarily stronger than oneself.

"No, I don't. Thank you. ”

Before he finished speaking, Ji Xun shook his head and refused, and had already started the motorcycle: "Let's go!" ”

With that, the motorcycle sped away and followed the large army.

Seeing this, a flash of doubt flashed in Alice's eyes.

But he also drove the carriage to follow.

Probably a patch with the will of space, her carriage didn't attract much attention in the team.

The two of them had been following the Goron not far away.

Ji Xun had seen the map of the vicinity of Valen City before.

There are plains on three sides, to the northeast and south, and to the west are the complex waters and caves where the rebels are hiding.

Now that the situation is clear, the military has already arranged their troops and is waiting to close the net.

It can be expected that there will be heavy troops on the northeast, south, and south sides.

Normally, the west is the only way to survive.

But it was for the rest of Valen to escape.

The 2,000 breakout corps led by Battiz chose the east.

They are not trying to escape, but to attract as much fire as possible.

The good news is that it is not easy to hide the movement of large forces on the plains, so the scope of the military encirclement is definitely not small.

It takes a long time to put it away.

If the rebel army really broke through to the east like a sharp knife, it would definitely attract dozens of times the number of enemies.

There will also be little pressure on Valen's side.

Almost exactly as expected.

Not long after the group rushed out, a military army of mechanical pioneers suddenly appeared on the dark plains.

There was a military response in the city, and seeing that the rebels were about to run, they no longer hid and began to encircle and intercept.

Before the people arrived, all kinds of shells blasted towards the crowd.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

“.”

The flames of the explosion exploded in the ranks.

Ordinary artillery fire cover, although it had little effect on the card division, was enough to blow up those locomotives.

Ji Xun looked at the military mechanical chariot that was chasing fiercely, and he was also amazed in his heart.

Scorpion chariots, jumping mantis chariots, centipede chariots that can burrow into the ground, spider chariots that walk on various terrains, and various magical steampunk-style mechanical chariots have been unveiled.

This is several levels higher than the mechanical technology of the Eastern Continent that can be seen with the naked eye.

The firepower of these chariots was also very fierce, dozens or hundreds of guns opened fire in unison, and the 2,000-strong army of the rebel army was scattered in an instant.

However, this has almost no impact on Ji Xun.

In his eyes, the first time the cannonball erupted from the muzzle of the cannonball, to the parabola formed during the whole process of its landing, it was like a line of fate.

As long as he sees it, it is impossible to hit himself.

Ji Xun rode a motorcycle in this way and moved flexibly in various positions, looking extremely dangerous, but there was actually no threat at all.

On the other hand, Alice's midnight carriage chose to resist the cannonballs directly.

As she said, the carriage was sturdy.

When those shells hit the ghost carriage, they would fall like pebbles into the water of the lake and disappear instantly.

Except for a little ripple of mana, there was no destructive power at all.

Ji Xun didn't understand the principle of this spell either.

And Alice was just as surprised.

She was also worried that Ji Xun's steam locomotive would suffer in artillery coverage.

However, at first glance, the worry is completely unnecessary.

She also noticed that the man and the car seemed to be in danger in the flames, but it turned out that he cleverly avoided the shells that exploded around him at all times.

It's just once.

Avoid it every time, it's not a matter of luck.

How did this guy do it?

I didn't look back, as if I had eyes on the back of my head.

What Alice didn't know was that Ji Xun had a shadow, and there were almost no blind spots in his vision.

The plain is very vast, and it is not easy for the military to block this rebel army that has broken through.

The firepower of the military is very fierce, and the rebels are not vegetarians, and all kinds of counterattacks.

The chariots of both sides chased and fled on the plain.

In the blink of an eye, he has already run more than ten kilometers.

Suddenly, the rebels watched as a row of chariot lights suddenly lit up on the horizon in the distance.

Everyone knew that the military had already predicted the trajectory of their breakthrough and organized a battle formation to intercept them.

In a large-scale war, this kind of offensive and defensive collision is normal.

This kind of legion-level collision is also a veritable battlefield meat grinder.

Seeing this, everyone knows that a tough battle is coming.

Ji Xun's eyes shrank slightly, and he gradually felt that the blood all over his body was excited.

It was only at this moment that he felt the real death crisis hit.

Not far away, Alice in the ghost carriage also moved.

The mana she had already accumulated surged, and she shouted softly: "Demon solution!" ”

In an instant, a demon god phantom in the form of a witch appeared behind her.

This is the ancestor of the witches, one of the fifty-two demon gods, which the Four Sequences of Hearts point to—Grinkel!

"The mark is of a very high grade."

Ji Xun watched Alice's magic solution appear as a demon god phantom, which was not surprising.

But then, he saw once again what was so special about the witch sequence.

After Alice's magic was solved, the mana all over her body surged to the extreme, and the spell was condensed in an instant: "Witch Secret Technique: Colorful Magic River!" ”

In an instant, a rainbow-like river of colorful elements appeared around the carriage.

Ji Xun's pupils shrank when he looked at it.

This is not an illusion.

Instead, he really used the power of the demon god to condense a high concentration of elemental rivers!

"Hey, this is amazing!"

Ji Xun also thought that only his own "gluttony" secret method could condense such an exaggerated elemental mana.

I didn't expect the witch sequence to be able to do it too?

Obviously, this is just the beginning.

With plenty of mana support, Alice's spell condensed again: "The great red robe of the Dark Witch of Opanisha!" ”

At another look, the white crow on her shoulder suddenly melted away, turning into a red cloak.

Under the cloak, Alice had a solemn expression.

The flame elves in the palms of her hands danced happily, and at the same time, the magic power on the surface of her body lingered and transformed into a beastly phantom of a werewolf.

"Little Red Riding Hood? Demon wolf form? ”

Ji Xun was also dumbfounded when he looked at it.

The magic mystery method of the [witch] sequence has been completely extinct in the Eastern Wilderness, and I have never heard of these methods.

Now when he sees someone performing it, there are only two words in his heart: amazing.

Judging from the strength of the mana alone, Alice was the most exaggerated of the fourth order he had ever seen.

And the level of this spell is not low.

This woman is really powerful.

No wonder I was so confident to come together.

Alice was ready, and she didn't forget to remind her urgently: "Mr. Ji Xun, don't stay too far away from me!" ”

Probably trying to say, "I'll protect you."

may have been afraid of a man's face again, she didn't say it directly.

"Huh."

Ji Xun listened and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

He didn't refuse that kindness, and said with a smile: "Okay! ”

“？？？”

Alice was stunned for a moment.

This guy is laughing?

You're going to be desperate, and you can still laugh?

This is an S-class mission!

I thought I was wrong,

But a moment later,

She read the smile.

That guy, he's really laughing.

From the bottom of my heart,

Smiled brightly and excitedly.

"Brothers, follow me!"

There was no way to avoid it, and the leader Badis shouted violently.

He took the lead and rushed towards the battle formation of the mechanical shield.

There was a loud "bang".

The twin blades pierced the armor, and the steam battering ram on the chariot collided with the sword mark on the shield array, and immediately chiseled a hole.

Battiz was the first to rush into the enemy camp.

The roaring gladiators followed.

Like a torrent bursting an embankment, frantically pouring in.

From the beginning of this wave of frontal contact between the two legions, the fierce battle began.

Ji Xun and Alice also followed closely and rushed in.

Since you have chosen the faction mission, you can only go one way to the dark.
