Randy Mathers, the leader of the second detachment of the seventh brigade of the Linfeng Legion, is responsible for commanding the second team of 500 people and 300 workers, and logistics to build fortifications in Baiyun Village and expand the defense area of Linfeng City.

I think he was also a proud cultivation genius back then, and after graduating from the top three in the Knight Academy and enlisting in the army, he quickly sat in the position of captain of the second detachment.

And when he was in his early thirties, his strength broke through and he was promoted to a sixth-order knight.

Originally, with his strength as a sixth-order knight, there was no problem in serving as the captain of the first team in the Linfeng Legion, but after several years, he was still mixed in the second team, and he did not wait for the opportunity to be promoted.

After more than 70 years of peacetime accumulation, the talent absorption in the Linfeng army is close to saturation, in other words, it is too volatile.

It's not about strength, it's about seniority.

In peacetime, soldiers do not have the risk of dying in battle, the old guys in front have not abdicated, and the rising stars naturally have no chance to take the position.

Having lost the promotion channel, occasionally drinking with his comrades at night and imagining the future, he would also think:

Ah, if only there was a fight.

As a soldier, there is no faster way to be promoted than to make great achievements.

The old guys, who had worn out their blood in peacetime, would better die in the war, and they, the new generation of soldiers, would take over the army.

Then they will turn the tide of battle, save Linfeng, and become heroes!

Haha, it's really exciting to think about!

Back then, Randy thought that such scenes were just his drunken delusions, and the Roland Empire was at its peak, and the steppe people had not dared to act rashly for decades.

There is no war on the frontier, and Linfeng City is peaceful!

But the world is unpredictable, but in just two years, Roland I died suddenly, the empire was in turmoil, and the steppe people waited for an opportunity to make a comeback.

At the beginning, everyone was full of righteous indignation, wanting to defend their families and defend the territorial integrity of Linfeng City.

But they were bound in the city by the city lord's strategy of not fighting, and they were unable to exert their fists and feet.

So discontent spread, and when he first built momentum in the city, most of the people in the army were mainly fighting factions, and he was one of them.

Later, the suicide procession broke out, and the city officially entered a state of war.

Randy and his men are gearing up to make a mark in the war.

But as the army left the city and officially engaged the steppe people on the steppe, they gradually discovered that something was wrong.

The strength of the steppe troops...... Seems stronger than you think?

Although the more than 70 years of peacetime have cultivated many talents in the Linfeng Army, these talents are embroidered pillows who have not experienced actual combat, and they have no cultivation level and combat theory, but they will fall when they touch the front line.

In the first week of the war, in fact, the Linfeng army had already experienced more than a dozen encounters with the steppe people, but in the end only a few of them were repulsed, and each time it paid a lot of price.

There is no real big win.

The dozen or so defeats were almost completely wiped out, so they were suppressed as scandals, and the victories were hyped in the city as good news, even if they were not good.

As a result, the people in the city were blindly confident in the situation, while those outside the city became more and more pessimistic about the situation.

But they couldn't retreat, and after unleashing the rhetoric of defending their home and country, they were already riding a tiger.

And now, at this moment.

Randy Mathers, the captain of the second detachment of the Seventh Brigade of the Peaking Legion, his thirty-year military career (seven days of actual combat career) is being tested by the toughest ever-

"Captain, I can't hold it anymore!" The adjutant's voice was hoarse, "They've come in!" ”

This steppe army was well-equipped, strong, and numerous, and it destroyed all the fortifications outside the village and rushed directly into the village.

"Defend it, keep it!"

In the center of the square of Baiyun Village, the Bauhinia banner of the Roland Empire was planted, and Randy rode his war horse, raised his sword to gather the remaining troops here, and shouted loudly, "We have no way to retreat, behind us is Linfeng City!" ”

Yes, they can't withdraw if they want to, and no one can outrun the iron hooves of the steppe people.

In that case, why don't you go back and bite them hard, what if you hold on and reinforcements arrive?

The steppe forces surrounded the square, and the first steppe knight, dressed in an ornate feather, led the way, wielding a machete.

Randy knew that this was the captain of this steppe army, and like him, he was also a high-ranking knight.

Fang Cai was the Linfeng soldier he had killed the most, and only he had the strength to compete with him in the audience.

In other words, as long as you can kill the opposing captain, this battle has a chance to turn the tables!

Thinking of this, his eyes sharpened, and as soon as he clamped the belly of the war horse, he raised his knight's sword and headed towards his opponent.

Fighting for great achievements? Fighting for promotion and knighthood? Fighting to defend your home and country?

These noble reasons were all thrown out of his mind at this moment.

He just wants to live now.

Stay alive!

The knight's sword in his hand shone even brighter, and in the midst of desperation, Randy burst out with all his power and slashed at his opponent with all his might.

Unlike Randy, who had a hideous face, the Captain of the Prairie just watched his every move with a calm to cold gaze, and then swung a knife.

In his eyes, Randy wasted too much expression, strength, and magic in places other than necessary, like a rookie who had no strength and couldn't use it skillfully.

The blade struck the knight's sword in a fragile position, and with a shock of the Prairie Captain's wrist, he swung Randy's sword straight away, followed by a slash straight through the door.

He's been through a lot of battles, and he's already familiar with how to kill people efficiently.

Randy didn't expect that he would be defeated by his opponent in three moves, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal deep frustration and despair.

There is also a gap between the sixth-order knights.

The brutal war will indeed sift out those embroidered pillows with empty qualifications, but I didn't expect that those who were sifted out would also include themselves.

Seeing that he was about to succeed, the killing intent in the eyes of the captain of the steppe people was even worse.

But in the next moment, the hairs on his back suddenly stood on end, and the sharp sound of the wind blade cutting through the air came from behind him.

He immediately stopped his attack, jumped diagonally from his horse, and rolled to the ground.

"Boom-"

The next moment, the sharp blade of the wind sliced the steed in half, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The steppe man loved horses more than his wife, and his always indifferent face twitched fiercely when he saw his war horse dismembered on the spot.

Spells require chant and cast time, but they are extremely powerful, which is why the limit of mages of the same level is higher than that of knights.

Even if it is a fourth-order spell, if a sixth-order knight is defenseless and does not wear armor of sufficient strength, he will be severely damaged by a single blow.

He was on guard and squinted his head up.

I saw a figure floating in the sky under the dazzling sun, she was wearing a white raven mask, stepping on a cyan magic circle, and holding a strangely shaped alchemy weapon in her right hand, aiming the muzzle of the black hole at him.

Who's this? Reinforcements from Ringpinnacle City......

Pointed at the muzzle of the black hole, a chill ran in the heart of the captain of the steppe people.

The next moment, the pale cyan circle unfolded at the muzzle of the gun, and another wind blade shot out, he bent down and rolled to dodge the wind blade, and then threw himself into a nearby house in embarrassment.

With the obstacle to cover him, the heavenly attacks could not hit him.

The high-level knight is agile and has a keen perception, and with the current armed strength of the first machine, if the opponent wants to run, it is indeed difficult to kill them all.

However, he can run, but others can't.

Yuna turned her gun and shifted her focus to the other steppe people.

The less agile shamans and low-ranking knights had no ability to resist in the face of the high-speed wind blade, and they were named one by one by Yuna, and even the men and horses were cut in half by the wind blade that fell from the sky.

Who's this? Reinforcements from Ringpinnacle City......

Randy looked at the figure that sprinkled the Death Wind Blade in the sky in a daze, and had the same question in his heart.

He didn't even know that there was such a lone wind mage in the army.

A low-level wind mage can't fly in the sky and release the wind blade at the same time, which means that she can cast two spells left and right at the same time, and her level is at least above the fifth order, or even the sixth order!

And if you look closely, this mysterious person is different from ordinary wind mages, orthodox mages do not summon magic arrays when casting spells, and what she holds in her hand is not an ordinary magic staff, but a strangely shaped alchemy weapon!

Is she really a mage?

Who the hell is she sacred!

Noticing his gaze, the figure wearing the mask of a white raven looked down at him, and the two met for a moment, and Randy subconsciously clenched the knight's sword in his hand.

The Raven raised his hand to cast the spell again, and the wind blade swept over Randy's head, splitting in half a prairie man who had climbed to the top of the building in an attempt to shoot an arrow.

At this time, everyone came to their senses, and the adjutant shouted excitedly: "Captain, she is here to help us, she is our reinforcement!" ”

Randy no longer hesitated, raised his arms and shouted, "Reinforcements have arrived, let's kill them together!" ”

"Kill!"

Everyone's morale was greatly boosted, and the will to fight was reinvigorated.

Under the cover of the white raven wind blade in the sky, they took advantage of the situation to push back, and they actually defeated the steppe people's troops in one fell swoop!

"Another one."

Yuna flew through the air in an arc of curves, dodging the shaman's ice spear shot on the ground, while slicing her in two with a backhand wind blade.

The ground forces were able to push the line back because she had attracted the attention of most of the transcendents in the steppe forces.

They either used spells or arrows to shoot the raven down from the sky.

But Yuna has been maintaining irregular air maneuvers at an altitude of nearly 100 meters, easily avoiding all their shots.

And because they were so focused on aiming, they were no different from fixed targets on the ground, and they were killed one after another by her wind blades.

After some desperation that the enemy could easily kill himself, but he could not hit the enemy, the morale of the steppe people collapsed.

They begin to evacuate from the village in a hurry, and Randy seizes the moment and leads his troops in pursuit.

After several wind blades in a row, the magic power of the magic guide gun was exhausted, Yuna stopped in the air, she pressed the mechanism of the magazine, threw away the magic crystal that had consumed her magic power, and took out a new one from her waist pocket and slapped it.

In the chaos of attacking and defending, a figure stood in the shadow of the house, he pulled the bowstring in his hand, and silently aimed the arrow at the white raven in the sky.

After being dragged by the white raven for so long, Linfeng's reinforcements were about to arrive, and this surprise attack had failed.

However, if you can knock her down, it will at least be considered a battle achievement, and if you can take her corpse by chance, you may even get the reward of "Heavenly Father"!

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the captain of the steppe people, and he seized the moment when the white raven was operating the alchemy weapon, and the sharp arrow in his hand came out of the string!

"Whew-"

Yuna leaned slightly, and the arrow passed her.

"I see you." She raised her magic guide at the Captain of the Prairie People.

Captain Prairie was the most likely threat to her in the entire fight, so she had been secretly on the lookout for his sneak attacks since she couldn't locate his exact location.

Just now she deliberately sold a flaw in the air, and the captain of the steppe people was really fooled and exposed his position.

With a missed blow, he knew he had missed his only chance, and with the power of the white raven, he no longer had the possibility of knocking her down.

If he continues to entangle, he will not be able to leave when the reinforcements from Linfeng arrive.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, turned over and rode an ownerless war horse in the chaotic battlefield, and drove it to the outside of the village.

He ran in a different direction from the steppe troops, and therefore moved away from the pursuing Linfeng army.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard a sharp sound breaking through the air.

When he turned his head to look, he felt despair in his heart, and his whole body felt like falling into an ice cellar.

The white raven caught up.

Yuna had been locking onto him in the air and firing the Wind Blade in the direction he was heading.

He could react, but the horses couldn't, and the steppe captain was forced to abandon his horse again and roll to the ground, where the wind blade split the horse in half.

He lay on the ground, gasping for breath, and watched the white raven that followed him in the sky.

This white raven resembles a ghostly ghost on the verge of peak, she follows you like a shadow, enveloping you in her shadow, you can see her, but you can't touch her.

He wanted to escape, but he couldn't.

At this time, the cheers of Linfeng's army were faintly heard in Baiyun Village behind him, and then a force galloped in the direction of the white raven.

He knew that it was Linfeng's reinforcements who had arrived.

After losing his horse, under the guidance of the white raven, reinforcements would soon come to surround him, and now he was no different from a dead man.

His heart was like ashes, and he closed his eyes in despair.

Only the white raven in the air stared at him indifferently, she aimed at the prey at her feet, and pulled the trigger again.

"Got you."
