But no matter how dangerous the demon is, if there are no special surprises...... The outcome of this battle is already predestined
Humanity is bound to be the ultimate winner. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)
The number of Flo Demons is too scarce, as long as you are careful of the few victims caused by the charm, there is no need to be afraid, but her eyes swept over the gradually gathering crowd, the shadow of the demon cowering in the surrounding darkness, Edward was thinking about another problem.
Summoning spells can also bring demons, but those projection effects created with magic are generally relatively short-lived and will dissipate quickly, and if these are created by other channels, then they will not be subject to any time constraints and will be more difficult to deal with.
But assuming that these things are not summoned, then the question is very big, where are the summoned places, and where are the people who summon them behind the scenes? If the purpose of the demons is to be mortal souls, why didn't they attack before?
A wicked joke by the goddess of fate, or ......
That is, it is likely that they are targeting these people...... Or is it that the town has actually been taken over by demons in the first place?"
The Spirit Crystal Servant crawled from the hunter's chest to his shoulder to get a better view of the surroundings, or rather the corpses that had just died—the excitement that came from the psychic connection made Edward reach out and flick it: "It shouldn't be enough, otherwise, there would be no need for the militia to participate in the battle at all...... And to the quantity and quality of the enemy. If they want to occupy or annihilate the place, they just have to choose another time. It doesn't take much effort. As for the mole, it seems to be certain, but I am afraid that there is no necessary connection with the village. ”
The conversation in my mind paused...... The hunter's eyes tightened a little, and a vague thought rose in his heart. And the great danger made his nerves tense.
"Elena, follow me!" he shouted, turning and running to the largest house in the town.
The purpose of these demons is not to attack. That would naturally be a disruption, and the opponent's goal was likely to have been achieved from the beginning, and the side of the priest and the knight of the guard had not moved, and it was likely that it had been completely wiped out - well, or not, after all, the opponent had not given up on the frontal diversion attack.
The mayor's dwelling was the only brick structure, in the midst of a cacophony of boiling cries. There seemed to be an eerie silence here, and Edward's gaze swept over the linen-covered lattice, and the hidden door, and shook his head. I picked up a jar from the side, threw it through the window, and then opened the door!
At the same time as the window was broken, there were several piercing sounds of friction and bounce in the room, but almost at the same time, more than a dozen arrows covered the door like locusts, and the black arrows tore through the air with a creepy roar!
It's just that the hunter had already left that position when the door opened, but the female paladin behind him snorted softly at the same time. The big sword in his hand turned, and the flickering luster turned into a shield like a membrane. When the arrow touched the shield, it stopped. Crackling fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?"
When he rushed into the narrow doorway, the scene in the room appeared in front of him, and the paladin couldn't help but shout angrily.
- The dim glow of a few candles reflected several figures lying or standing in the room, almost half of the space occupied...... Ten or so city guards stood in twos and threes, holding their swords against the necks of several people around them—the middle-aged mayor, his wife, daughter, and two children, bound together almost like a ball, looking at the paladins with frightened eyes, and emitting a series of supplicating whines from under the rags that were gagged.
The poor mage was a key caretaker - he was crushed to the ground, a large piece of linen stuffed in his mouth, his cheeks bulging like a xenomorph goldfish, and his hands and feet were firmly tied behind him...... But this ridiculous gesture could really block his movements, and the dense rope loops were so careful that every finger was so close that he completely lost the possibility of casting spells.
The bow and crossbow in the other hand of the captors pointed at the door, a shimmering blue light on the arrows......
"What do you mean, Lord Frankand?"
Elena gritted her teeth and clenched her sword to restrain herself from rushing forward—in the other corner of the room, the knight captain was smiling hideously......
Not far from his feet, a priest was lying to the side, his hammer clutched tightly in his hand, but never had a chance to swing them again—his head tilted to the side with angry eyes, a shocking blackening mark of the crimson liquid on his white robes, and the hideous wound at the source nearly ripped open half of his neck!
The blood has dried up, this murder has been going on for some time, and even the power of the gods cannot save the souls that have been lost.
"Oh, it's amazing, it's worthy of ...... It seems that I, a mortal, really have no way of estimating how powerful the great Lansendel is in protecting his followers. You found out first, I thought I could wait until you had a good time with those little things, and then clean up the battlefield a little."
The young knight shook the crossbow in his hand slightly, and the bowstring creaked out automatically, and three new arrows moved from one side to the other, resting on it, so that he could even push his helmet for a long time, and then let out a low sneer: "But let's lay down our weapons." Otherwise, my friends, I don't mind causing some extra casualties against a paladin. ”
"Summoning demons, killing civilians, kidnapping, Cliff?Frankan, what the hell are you trying to do?" staring at the other man's face, the paladin asked word by word, "Put down your weapon." Free the hostages, and you will still be able to get a chance at redemption, otherwise you ......"
"How about it else, purify me with the light of the sun god?"
"Don't worry. I don't really need to treat you guys, as long as you stay here a little longer, after two days, we won't have anything to do with each other. A qiē can end peacefully. ”
"Of course. You can also try not to follow my advice......" 2000 gently waved the long sword in his hand, shook off a bead of blood on it, and narrowed his eyes: "But I'm afraid the result will be very unsatisfactory......"
"You guys really ...... Damn!"
Elena's expression was hidden in the shadow of the helmet, but the voice was hoarse. It was also enough to feel the wrath of the young paladin...... After a little hesitation, she stuck the sword in her hand on the ground, and Ai walked forward, stretched out her hands to signal to the other party that she was not carrying a weapon: "Let go of the villagers! I will be your hostage!
"You, of course, Lovely Miss, you are a better hostage, but. That has to be after you've taken off all the armor from your body. Because I'm a little timid, so, hehe...... Your companions, it is better to show more sincerity. ”
The young baron's eyes narrowed. Raised the volume of the grin:
"All of you take off your armor and throw your weapons away! Slowly, let's see what you're doing, and then you, and the lady, come over together." ”
He commanded triumphantly, not worried about what the tricks would be played by anyone here—the teachings of the God of Dawn had already molded his followers into a bunch of nerds, as long as they were in control of the hostages. If you ask them to commit suicide, they may be able to agree, not to mention that they still have a lot of leeway.
"Alas...... Your fault isn't just cowardice. And there is stupidity and a lot of talk, Mr. Viscount......"
A shrill voice rang out at this time. Let the space suddenly be silent.
Everyone's eyes fell on the gray figure who had just walked through the door. However, the speaker himself did not seem to care about the gazes, but just hugged his chest and stroked his chin with one hand, giving a playful taunt. "Wouldn't it be easier to tie up the paladin and the villagers together at this time? And don't you think that by keeping two groups of hostages at some distance from each other and not in the same room, you can avoid the danger of being served in a pot......? If you were smarter, at this age, you wouldn't be just a knight captain......"
"You...... Hmph, I didn't expect there to be a fish that slipped through the net here, or rather, a nasty ditch rat?"
The knight named Calais was stunned, and the other party's calmness made him suspicious, but he carefully scanned the surroundings and there was no change
"Okay, I'll guess...... Since you're here."
"Well, although he's just a garrison captain, he's also a low-level nobleman, and it's not so easy to buy...... But if you put another reason, such as an order...... Then a qiē is all logical. ”
There is only one answer...... This so-called patrol is basically a means to send most of the combat power of each temple out of the city, right...... As long as the priests and paladins are not there, you can plan your affairs in a big way, hmm, let me guess, the person in charge of this matter should be the Enwei ** Master? However, your city lord and his deputies seem to be inseparable...... Or is he one of the conspirators at all?"
Reaching out and stroking his chin, Edward sneered, and did not wait for the other party's answer: "Well, that's right, you don't actually have to say anything to a pawn like you, I think you're just a dog who only obeys people." Maybe that's all I know. ”
"Clever, clever, cunning little bastards, you mages always do...... Naturally, I don't have to bother to explain anything to you, and you just come with that kind of question...... Let's wait until the ceremony is over. The knight captain grinded his teeth angrily, but his mind seemed to remain calm, and he didn't move randomly at a few sarcastic remarks, but just sneered loudly.
Edward tilted his head slightly, showing confusion, but in fact, he was carefully observing the other party's face...... In fact, his inference is only the biggest possibility, and it is not certain......
Thankfully, though. In this plane that has not experienced the baptism of knowledge explosion, there are not many characters who can perfectly control their own feelings, and this low-level nobleman in front of him. Clearly not one of them - his expression stiffened visibly when the word command appeared, and though it was forced, a sudden change was enough for Edward to confirm some of his thoughts.
"I have to admit that humans really are a wonderful species. An unsubstantiated and unscientific blind cat like you can actually find out the truth, well, this guy doesn't seem to have much brains. Even a dog can keep the truth of the matter more than he can. The voice of the Spirit Crystal Servant was full of incredulity: "It seems that you are right, 'There is no more stupid thing than to be smart'. ”
The Mind Hunter didn't bother to pay attention to him.
A knight drew his sword and swung it out!
He was the strongest of the group, and it was evident that he wasn't just on all fours—the sword drew a perfect semicircle, enveloping a yard and a half in front of him, and the weight of the force made anyone who was a dozen yards away feel the wind howl......
The mayor's head had a small amount of hair...... The screams of several barrels suddenly raised an octave!
The mayor's body fell limply to the ground, and several horsemen laughed—the arrow was just a sword grazing the mayor's head. Although he fainted with fright, it didn't hurt anything except his hair.
Of course, this is a pretty potent threat...... The paladins gritted their teeth fiercely. But he could only throw away the weapons in his hands one by one.
"Elk, get these guys' weapons!"
The leader's gaze cautiously surveyed a few paladins before ordering. Of course, he didn't forget that he had paid the most attention to the young mage, focusing on his hand folded on his chest and on his chin - as long as the opponent made any spell casting moves, a crossbow bolt would be shot at him, even if the terrifyingly strong paladin resisted, the mage could not move first.
However, he apparently didn't notice that the air around him writhed slightly......
The long sword in his hand swung forward fiercely. Unleash your power perfectly, enveloping a yard and a half in front of you. The heavy force made everyone who was a dozen yards away from him feel the sword wind howling......
Then he was stunned - in fact, the whole room was quiet for a moment, and everyone had an unbelievable expression. Looking at the knight's sword, which had reached the peak of its strength and speed, was attached to a sharp spell, tearing through the armor like parchment, splitting the flesh and even the bones......
But at the end of the blade stood another of his companions.
There was silence.
The snorting sound of blood gushing out of the human body that was cut off by a sword became the only sound in the space. At the intersection of everyone's eyes, the knight who had done a little bit looked at his weapon and the corpse of his companion who was gradually softening, his eyes full of disbelief and confusion.
Abandon the darkness and turn to the light?
Anyway, a few very unprofessional T's inevitably overwhelmed for a while......
It seems to be an attack from the other side...... So what are we going to do? Kill the hostages? But what do we have to rely on then?
So at this time, the most dangerous guy has already moved...... The hand holding his chin stretched out his index finger, and with a slight touch of forward, a blue arc of lightning cut through the space and fell straight on the face of the somewhat sluggish knight captain, knocking him backwards and staggering a few steps! The lightning that exploded on his head turned his face into a piece of medium-rare roast meat, and also made the brain of the closest distance completely blank! Even the half of the exclamation was blocked in his chest, turning into a squeak as if he was dying.
Unprofessional, so unprofessional...... Well, in fact, these idiots didn't have the idea of using hostages as shields from the beginning, and they actually listened to their own words, and were ready to tie these people up with the paladins - even if you were sure to win, you wouldn't be able to let the hostages out of your hands at this time, right? That's your only recourse.
The psychic warlock sighed slightly in his heart, and at the same time activated the psionic energy on his boots, so the several knights standing in the original pen pavilion turned into rolling gourds without exception, and among them there was a bad luck guy, and the long sword in his hand slammed directly on the ground
In the blink of an eye, the offense and defense were transposed.
"Bastard!"
The leading knight was shocked and furious, and he didn't understand how his foolproof plan could have come to be like this...... He has obviously taken hostages, he has clearly taken control of the situation, and he has clearly ......
However, it seemed that it was too late to complain at this time, the young paladin had already rushed towards him, and the long sword was already in her hand at some point, and it was drawing a brilliant and terrifying white light, the light was only a flash, and the scorching heat suddenly exploded, like EC5 flames, burning hot......
"Those who are in the company of evil, those who are seduced by evil, who abandon dignity and glory, will end up in purgatory, suffering for eternity, from which there will be no liberation. Elena's voice was still crisp, but it was as cold as the wind that cut through the ice field, and beside her, the bodies of the three knights fell down one after another, and the holy flame drew bright marks on their bodies, and the blood and the light flame fused together, but it did not bring any warmth of life, but a scorching death
