322 Lightning Storm

Dargnon leaned slightly, creeping down the gently curvy slope.

Meanwhile, not too far from him, Onessa was on her horse, aiming for the fiercest areas of the frontal battlefield.

As Carter Roman said, now is the perfect time to assassinate her.

Unsure of her intentions, Onesha chose to traverse the blood-filled chaos, and behind her, the soldiers who received the order quickly moved in defensive formation, as if trying to delay the advance of the enemy's reinforcements as much as possible. Therefore, at present, only a few people are left in charge of his escort duties.

In fact, there is not much flaw in this arrangement. After all, the area in front of Borriello Manor had just been swept away by the "Flame Demon Knights", leaving only the raging flames and the remnants of the dying soldiers. Coupled with the fact that both the front and rear directions are controlled by their own troops, these guards should be enough to keep Onessa safe. What's more, at this urgent joint, a few more soldiers who can defend may be able to buy a little more precious time, so that the blood of this rainy night will not pass in vain.

But they didn't know what to do, a deadly threat was lurking from the darkness, ready to strike the last blow.

At the foot of the hill, Dalgnan slowed his pace slightly. He raised his head and looked around for a moment, temporarily adjusting the course of his actions according to the direction and speed of Onisha's advance, ensuring that he could catch up with the other party from the diagonal direction. By this time, he had entered the edge of the nearby dense forest, and with the cover of night and trees, he was able to get as close to his target as possible. What's more, the situation is chaotic now, and the other party is panicked, so he shouldn't pay too much attention to the surrounding turmoil.

Moreover, he also has special stealth skills.

Tilt your head and think for a moment. Dargnan muttered a few times, and a cold wave of magic spread out, enveloping his form.

"Is there such a hidden auxiliary spell in ice magic?" Haji watched Dalgon disappear into the woods with interest, and asked after a moment of discernment, "General Cattroman." Who is he?"

"A killer named Dahl, Er...... What is it," Carter Roman thought for a moment, and finally shook his head, he had heard it and heard it, and he didn't bother to memorize it, so he could only introduce, "I just asked." The target of his operation this time is Onessa. ”

"If you can receive a commission to assassinate the monarch of a country, you must not be an unknown person," Haji guessed, "besides, the spell he just released is quite mysterious, and it is likely that he is a demon warrior with a secret heritage." ”

"I see," Carter Roman was quite convinced of a great magician's judgment. He nodded, "As long as he doesn't get in the way of our actions." It's up to him to go, after all, it's also a help. ”

"It's fine," Haji said with a frown, returning to the battlefield not far away, "but looking at Onesha's appearance, she's not helpless. There should be a back-up move. ”

"Then let her do whatever she wants," Catterroman didn't seem to think the killer would succeed, and he stepped forward, sheathed it in his hand, and said nonchalantly. "When that time comes, that's when we make a move. ”

The two of them stood quietly at the top of the hill, staring at the battlefield not far away, no longer speaking, and the heavy rain beside them clicked on the rotors of the abandoned windmill, making a very rhythmic tuk-tuk sound.

The spell Dargnan had unleashed completely obscured his figure, and with his extremely strange stealth skills, it was difficult to keep up with Catroman's whereabouts in such a chaotic environment, even with his keen vision. However, as long as you lock Onisha's location, sooner or later you will wait for the moment when he launches.

Gradually, however, there was a hint of doubt in the eyes of both of them. Both Catroman and Hagee knew that although Onessa was once the Grand Commander of the "Fire Demon Knights", her combat power could only be said to be very average, barely at the mid-level level. In this case, her mood was still so calm, leading only three or four cavalry, and actually headed straight for the front line where the battle was fiercest. This kind of behavior of a drop in the bucket will not have any significant impact on the battle situation of thousands of people, which is really a bit puzzling.

The shouts of murder were louder again, but not in the direction Onessa was going, but behind her. Cartroman tilted his head slightly, knowing that Borriello's reinforcements had arrived, and that they were fighting with the escort that Onisha had left behind. With the huge disparity in the military strength of the two sides, even if the escort team fights desperately, the maximum they can do is to slow down the pace of the other party. As time goes by, more and more reinforcements will be put in, and by that time, even delaying will become a luxury.

His gaze turned back to Onisa's direction again, and his right hand rested on the hilt of the knife, faintly expectant.

Onisha didn't have time to hesitate anymore, her final hole cards were about to be revealed. Whether it is a successful reversal or a complete defeat, this bloody night is about to come to an end. And the moment he draws his sword, all the painstaking plans will be completely surrendered in the face of absolute strength.

"There's a magical fluctuation in that direction," Hadji next to her, staring at Ornessa's location, suddenly spoke, "It's very obscure, but it feels familiar." ”

"Is it Allegri?" asked Cartroman.

"Yes...... Gray magic," Haji muttered a few times, a flash of fierce lightning flashed under the wide hood, and a faint blue luster immediately appeared in his eyes, obviously blessed with some kind of spell, he carefully observed it for a moment before concluding, "It's not Allegri's fire magic, it should belong to the category of arcane or summoning spells." ”

"Oh?" said Cartroman, frowning, stepping forward again. As a legendary warrior, his attainments in magic are far from Haji's, but his keen fighting instincts are even stronger. He could also feel a strange feeling now, not dangerous, but revealing something strange.

"Wait......" Haji's expression was a little surprised, and he muttered, "That wave is rapidly mobilizing the surrounding free magic, hey, no, why is there suddenly a flame magic out of thin air, is it really Allegri who is making trouble?"

"I don't care much about Borriello, but I can't let him die right under my nose," Cattroman thought for a moment, finally put away his child's play, and turned his head, "Master Hagi, get ready to do it." ”

Haji nodded silently, stretched out his hands, and a small array plate inlaid with Xuanao silver patterns emerged, and a clear blue thunder light was restrained in it, flowing slowly like flowing water. (To be continued......)
