Section 349 heads-up
The sword stabbed through the back of the Chaos Warrior, the tip of the sword piercing through the armor, piercing through the heart, and stabbing out of the chest.
Normally human beings are incapacitated immediately after such a fatal blow. When the sword was drawn, he would collapse limply, let out a dying roar or convulsions, and slowly die. But the Chaos Warrior was different, he still had the strength to deal a backhand blow even though he had already taken a fatal wound - of course, this attack was very light and was dodged by Laria.
Blood spurted out of the Chaos Warrior's wounds like a fountain. But the human still roared and swung his weapon, delivering three blows in succession, and then suddenly his body shook, and he fell to his knees, slowly leaning forward, and finally fell.
You can be so brave when you are hit by such a fatal blow. Although it was Laria who won in the end, she couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
On the other side, a lightly wounded man was retreating behind him, holding on to another seriously wounded companion. The fireworks were all around, and there was no longer a single Chaos Warrior still standing.
This fire was not deliberately planted by anyone. The origin of the fire was caused by a Chaos warrior rushing in with a torch. After he was knocked down, his torches were thrown aside. In the midst of the scuffle, neither side had time to deal with the torches, which slowly ignited some flammable materials. And the flames, like all fires, spread like this, until they became what they are now.
Neither side of the war had spare time to deal with the fire, so they could only fight each other in this fire and blood.
The Queen's guards were not of the rank of ordinary soldiers—they were carefully selected men, strong and loyal. And their equipment is much better than that of ordinary soldiers. But in this battle, they did not have any advantage at all.
The Bloodfang Lord had broken through under extremely unfavorable circumstances, and those who were able to break out of the encirclement with him were the strongest and most warlike Chaos warriors, and a large number of them were Chosen Warriors. Although the Queen's guards are all elite, in terms of individual combat power, the Chaos Warriors are actually more powerful. In addition to this, the Chaos Warriors also have an absolute advantage in numbers.
The reason why the battle has been able to continue until now, and the reason why the three waves of Chaos consecutive attacks have been defeated, is that in this battle, on the side of the queen's guard, there are two beings who are far more powerful than ordinary humans. That's right, Starmark and Laria.
"How many more people can move?" shouted Laria.
She looked around, but the situation was much more dire than she had expected. There were originally about forty or fifty people here, but the wave of attacks just now was really sinister, and hundreds of Chaos warriors rushed in. After a fierce battle, there were only a dozen soldiers who were able to stand and look like they could continue the battle, and the rest were either carried to the rear by their companions or buried in the blood and flames.
You can see the figure of the silver-haired girl standing at the end of this lobby, blocked at the entrance of the passage. She had been here just now, which gave Lalia the opportunity to play freely.
In fact, she knew very well that if she was the only one with dozens of soldiers just now, she would probably have been swallowed up by the wave of offensive just now. In fact, if it is one-on-one, Laria is confident that she can easily deal with any Chaos Warrior, but if there are enough Chaos Warriors......
If she's alone, Laria can keep herself safe. If she can't beat her, she can escape. But she can't run away now. In the back room is the little queen...... And her sister. As soon as the Chaos Warriors break through the defenses - not many, just one - the most terrifying scenario will happen.
"How are you, Star?" she asked loudly.
The situation with Star Carving is not good. The wave of attacks just now was so fierce that she had to go all out. Now she was hunched over, gasping for breath. And her forehead was already covered with sweat. This is a clear sign of excessive body consumption. However, she was not harmed in any way, and the only blood marks on her clothes were from the enemy.
"Okay...... What about the enemy?"
"For the time being...... It should stop for a while. Laria said.
How could this happen? The city of Neustria, which was supposed to be in the rear, was guarded by the tall and majestic walls, but it was attacked by the Chaos Legion. To make matters worse, the Chaos Legion even broke through the walls and entered the city.
It's not that Neustria's warning is not timely, it's that the little girl and her party don't understand the guards, that is, the meaning of the gong. By the time everyone figured out what had happened, they had lost the opportunity to retreat into the inner city. The intrusive Chaos warriors cut off their retreat, and the battle broke out.
It's also a shame that the Chaos Warriors don't know what kind of prey they're up against. Their initial offensive was not strong, which allowed the little girl and her party to retreat into this easy-to-defend position, the Grand Temple of Neustria City. However, the Chaos Warriors soon found no other target in the outer city - as mentioned earlier, Neustria was now almost empty, and the defenders quickly withdrew behind the second wall knowing that they could not stop the enemy invasion - so their attention was focused on this last enemy.
When they found that this group of enemies was small in number, but very strong in combat, the situation faced by the Queen's Guard was even more dire.
The flames were still burning, and because of the fire, I could clearly see what was going on around me. The entire hall of the Great Temple was littered with the bones of the fallen soldiers of the two armies, sprinkled with steel and blood all over the ground. The fire made it impossible for them to get out of here.
"How's it going on inside, have you found the secret passage?"
Retreating to this large temple was definitely the best choice that could be made in a hurry. Among the Queen's entourage, there was a veteran who knew the city well, and he told everyone that there was a secret passage inside the Grand Temple, most likely leading to the outside of the city.
So the situation became like this: all the combatants were in the lobby to face the rushing Chaos warriors, and those who were not capable of fighting were looking for the legendary secret passage.
"Still looking. A lightly wounded man replied. His breastplate was shattered, and his flesh was blurred, but it was only a flesh wound, and he could barely move. "Everyone has found the possible location of the secret passage and is looking for a way to open the entrance. ”
A wave of ...... must also be held off As Laria thought so, she saw three or five Chaos Warriors rush in. This is not a formal offensive, but a temptation. They wanted to know what was going on inside - after all, all the bastard soldiers who had just rushed in had been killed, and none of them had returned.
Naturally, they saw the dozen or so people who remained—the others were fine, and the two Laria and Star Carving in the firelight stood out. Because in the human mind, women on the battlefield are indeed very rare things - especially women who seem to be more powerful. However, at least they already know the outcome of the previous battle.
Although all the Chaos warriors who rushed in were wiped out, the defenders' side also suffered heavy losses, and only a dozen wounded soldiers remained.
They paused for a second, as if pondering whether they should take the initiative to attack or retreat to report the situation. But in an instant, the tallest Chaos Warrior gave a command, and the other four Chaos Warriors rushed over together.
Laria stepped forward and took on an enemy. The Chaos Warrior was not very tall, and wielded a weapon rarely seen in Chaos: a saber commonly used by light cavalry.
Laria rushed up quickly, trying to use her superhuman speed to quickly kill her opponent. But this time she miscalculated, although the other party's speed was inferior to her, it was still enough to block her first sword in time. The saber sparked and a gap broke under the sword. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Laria caught up with her, slashing at the saber with a barrage of blows. When she slashed the final blow, the poor steel weapon was finally overwhelmed by the wounds. With a crisp sound of metal, the saber broke in two.
Laria stepped forward and delivered another slash. This time, the opponent's saber broken into two could not stop the long sword. The sword flashed, and the arms and bodies of the Chaos Warriors separated. He retreated hastily, but he couldn't get rid of Laria, who was like a maggot attached to a bone. The sword light fell, and the Chaos Warrior's helmet and head were split in half at the same time.
On the other side, a dozen queen guards besieged the three Chaos Warriors. The battle looked evenly matched: one side was outnumbered but exhausted, and the other side was recharged but outnumbered. However, Lalia was not worried about this, she glanced back slightly, and noticed that Starmark was also watching this side.
What she really cared about was the Chaos Warrior who looked like the leader. This Chaos warrior is tall, wears a heavy suit of chaos armor, and wields a massive warhammer. He didn't seem to care that his men were defeated in such a short period of time, but he just looked at Laria's gaze with a little more bloodlust and curiosity. His gaze lingered on the three men who were fighting, and then focused on Laria.
Laria noticed that the Chaos Warrior's armor seemed a little different...... This armor is a bit more elaborate than the average Chaos Warrior. Moreover, a blasphemous symbol was painted on the cuirass.
This one should be the champion samurai of Chaos. Becoming a champion samurai is not easy, which shows his fighting prowess...... Much stronger than other Chaos Warriors. And this symbol...... He should be a Chaos Champion of Blood God Fear.
"Interesting...... Woman ......" Chaos Champion let out a sinister laugh. There was a fiery glint in his eyes, a thirst for blood and battle. His hammer was clean, and it was clear that the champion warrior had yet to achieve anything in tonight's siege.
Anyone can tell that Lalia is no ordinary woman. It's not just the very unique armor she's wearing, it's also the incredible speed and strength she's shown in the battle just now.
The Chaos Warrior walked towards Laria. His movements seemed to be easy, and his steps were not fast. But in reality, Lalia clearly felt the indescribable pressure in his steps. There is no opportunistic possibility in the promotion of Chaos, and every Chaos Champion Samurai is a master of combat skills and an expert in killing.
In a different environment, Laria is 100% confident that she can easily take out this guy. But in such a head-on battle, her stealth and agility are not the best to her advantage. The flames had spread further around her, and the corpses on the ground had hindered her nimble movements.
She took a deep breath and raised her sword in a defiant battle stance.
"Ha ......" With this malicious laughter, the Chaos Warrior suddenly sped up. Although he was wearing heavy armor, his speed was no slower than that of a lightly armed man. The heavy hammer danced in his hand like a light toy. He swept in one blow and went straight at Laria.
