Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 59 The Rose Hound and the Magic Bullet
Suddenly, the light of the sun dimmed, and then it brightened up again, stabbing people's eyes, as if some force was interfering with the operation of this worldly realm.
The smell of blood suddenly permeated. Everywhere in the town, there seemed to be something about it, in the shadows, in the cracks in the walls, in the wells, under the eaves......
At some point, carrion-loving vultures had begun to hover in the sky, their shrill cries piercing the scorching air, making the atmosphere even more solemn.
The soldiers of the Red Flame Legion, who were constantly attacking, began to panic in their hearts for no reason, and even the Red Fox General, who had always been extremely calm, did not reprimand his subordinates for their timidity, but began to observe the movements around them vigilantly. Fenrir involuntarily showed nervousness, subconsciously looking left and right.
Although I don't know what will happen next, everyone knows that there is "something" coming.
Now the sun over the town of Alwyn is already blood-red.
The sky, too, is gray.
The appearance of something affected everything around it, even a stone or a tree, and gradually took on a different appearance than usual, disturbed by the arrival of a terrible monster summoned to this land.
In silence, the fog rose.
Neither white nor black, but a blood-red mist, like a flood from the dike, frantically permeated every part of the town.
On the battlefield, there were still countless corpses, the blood of the dead was cold, the dark red color was full of ominous, but compared to the blood of the dead, the color of this mist was more terrifying. If anger and hatred are mixed together, it must be the color of this mist.
The Red Flame soldiers at the forefront tried to retreat, but the red mist was faster than the wind, and in an instant, it had already enveloped several hundred-man teams.
In the next moment, countless desolate screams came from the mist. The scream was so sharp that it pierced people's eardrums in an instant, but it only lasted for a few seconds before the screaming stopped abruptly as if it had been silenced.
A few seconds later, the sound sounded again, only this time it was no longer from the throat of a living creature, but the clatter of swords, armor, shields, etc., as they fell to the ground. The sound of metal colliding with the ground was so crisp that it was as if all the soldiers had discarded their weapons and taken off their armor at the same time.
And if anyone could see through it, he would know what had happened in the mist in those few tens of seconds—countless fangs and sharp teeth condensed from the blood mist, frantically tearing at the flesh and blood of every living creature until it devoured them all, leaving only a pair of armor and swords.
And on these equipment, there was not even a trace of blood, it was completely bright as new, because every drop of blood, every piece of flesh and blood, had been swallowed by this strange red mist.
"Attack!" the knights barely suppressed the fear in their hearts and gave the order with a roar.
However, neither the edge of the sword nor the impact of the bullet could cause any hindrance to this red mist. The wide range of attack spells cast by the elementalists even made the mist more vivid and expanded faster!
Wipe out enemies with an irresistible infiltrating attack, convert all flesh into its own energy with terrifying digestion, and its vast range of magic is its tonic, and steel cannot stop its movements. Once summoned, it will become stronger and stronger, and it is said that at the end of the battle, it can even completely swallow an entire city, and even a single mosquito will not escape the fate of its food.
This is Alice Outelobos' hole card, the Red Devil's "Rose Hound".
When facing the Fog Demon or Night Demon, although the Red Flame Legion cannot attack the main body, it will only suffer interference after all, and there will be no direct casualties due to this.
And those female ghost swords with special skills in the Delos Empire are even more able to continue groping in the fog until they find the location of the main body at the end of the day, so as to severely damage them.
However, the Red Devil "Rose Hound" is a completely different existence, because it not only has attack power, but also attack power is extremely powerful.
In this bloody and brutal vortex created by the Rose Hound, no one can walk freely, and every step will cost a great price, but it can attack every target in its range with impunity, and turn the dead enemy into a part of itself.
The Rose Hound, it is a messenger of wrath, a representative of madness, synonymous with destruction!
It's not an exaggeration to call it "the strongest summoned beast".
In front of such a summoned beast, the Red Flame Legion was bitten off a large piece in an instant, at least two thousand people, and became food for the Rose Hound.
A large number of colleagues were wiped out in an instant, and even the most well-trained soldiers finally couldn't help but start to collapse, from formation, to morale, to heart.
"Monster...... Monsters!"
"Man-eating monsters, they're eating people!"
"Run, we can't deal with this kind of thing!"
The soldiers in the front row are the closest to the danger and see it most clearly. In the faint red mist, they saw only a figure fall apart like sand, and then the armor and weapons that had lost their master fell one by one. This terrible sight made them desperate to flee, and they squeezed their colleagues behind them, shouting back with a look of horror.
But at this moment, a sharp horn sounded, and then, a group of expressionless soldiers in black armor suddenly stepped forward, drew their long knives and slashed without hesitation. In an instant, all the soldiers who fled were beheaded!
The Red Flame Legion has an iron-like discipline, and it is of course not consciousness and honor that maintains this discipline, but the indifferent and ruthless prison army.
"Retreat! But be sure to keep your formation!The rear army immediately turns into the front army to open the way, and we leave the town of Elwin!" the Red Fox General roared loudly, his face unchanged, but he hid his trembling hands in his cloak.
"Summoning this monster, that frantic Midi must have been buried in it a long time ago, and those damned elves must have also been buried with them!" Fenrir said with a sinister look in his eyes, "We have won this battle!"
Under the cold gaze of the overseers, the roar of the Red Fox General, and the sneer of Fenrir, the Red Flame Legion hurriedly turned around and began to retreat desperately.
The red mist "Rose Hound" immediately chased after it silently.
But this was not Alice's order, on the contrary, the Witch of the Mist was trying her best to restrain the movements of the Rose Hound, her beautiful face had already turned extremely pale, and her long black hair was sticking to her skin with sweat, completely losing her agility.
Because at this moment, the backlash and struggle from this terrible summoned beast are getting stronger and stronger.
The Witch of the Mist has not yet fully controlled the Rose Hound.
Or rather, no one can fully control it.
The soaring strength of the battle makes the resistance of the Rose Hound continue to increase, and ordinary soul contracts cannot restrain it at all, and the summoner must use the coercion of his own soul to make the will of the summoned beast obey.
No matter how talented the Witch of the Mist is, her age is there, but she is still a girl, and the accumulation and precipitation of her soul are not enough to bring an overwhelming advantage.
As a result, resistance is always there, and not only that, but this resistance increases by one point for each enemy killed by the Rose Hound. Once Alice can't control it, what awaits her and the more than a thousand elves next is the same ending as the Red Flame Legion soldiers.
If you kill and injure half of the Red Flame Legion here, and at the same time destroy all of your own side, can it be considered a victory?
Of course not, it was just an indisputable fiasco.
Not only would it fail miserably, but it would also make Midi's act of saving herself meaningless.
So, Alice was gritting her teeth and trying her best to suppress the Rose Hound's struggle.
It's just that as time goes by, she feels more and more powerless.
Originally, he was not 100% sure, and he was injured in the previous confrontation with the necromancer Wiseman, and the two superimposed made Alice's suppression of the Rose Hound extremely difficult.
She could even feel that the invisible but qualitative soul contract between herself and the Rose Hound was vibrating constantly, creating countless tiny rifts, and when the contract completely collapsed, it was when the bloodthirsty summoned beast bared its fangs at her.
Is this my limit?
Is this the end of Otroboth's legacy?
As the lord of the forest, can you only go so far?
Alice's mind had a thousand thoughts going through it, but the last thing she remembered was the figure who rushed forward without hesitation and saved her back.
As a result, nothing was done......
At this moment, a bright blue light pierced the gray sky.
This light was like a sharp sword from the sky, and it slashed directly at the town of Elwin, which was half engulfed by the red mist, causing the Rose Hound, which was recklessly devouring flesh, to let out a terrifying scream.
Before the light could fade, a second beam followed, destroying an old building with precision, cleverly blocking the path of the Red Flame Legion's retreat.
Then, the third and fourth paths......
As the attacks came again and again, the brutal Rose Hound lost its momentum, and the retreating Red Flame Legion was in chaos, and this infinitely powerful magic bullet instantly controlled the entire battlefield.
In the entire Duchy of Belmar, there is only one person who can cast this kind of magic bullet.
Fina Hamilton, the red-haired Queen of Magic Bullets.
"It's finally here, and it's early. Alice muttered softly, subconsciously letting out a long breath.
Although the arrogant Fog Witch would never admit it, at this moment, the thought that the red-haired girl of the same age had come here, her heart was indeed a little more stable.
Of course, Fina's appearance is not a miracle or coincidence, but the result of Midi's careful arrangement.
Fina, who had disappeared since leaving Fort Joseph, obviously could not really get out of the war.
Her real mission is to go to the territory of the Athrex family, join up with Midi's father, the Earl of Ingman, and lead the Asrex family of 3,000 soldiers to break through the Yorkshire defenses. Then, from the east, they approached the elven troops of Midi, quietly forming a trapping trend, and finally defeated the main force of the Red Flame Legion in one fell swoop!
This is a bold strategy that requires a precise grasp of time.
If Fina attacks Yorkshire too early, General Red Fox is likely to adopt conservative tactics and combine the originally divided forces into a 10,000-strong army, making it impossible to break them one by one, let alone encircle them one by one.
So, Fina waited patiently.
When Midi launched a night attack, she did not attack. When Midi fought with the Red Flame Legion one after the other, she didn't attack either. It wasn't until General Red Fox couldn't hold back and took 1,500 men from Yorkshire to prepare for a general attack that she finally gave the order to attack.
The last 1,000 men of Quinine Joseph, plus the 500 old and sick men left behind in Yorkshire, were no match for the 3,000 army under the command of Fina. In an instant, Yorkshire was defeated.
Then, Fina immediately showed a resolute attitude, she left all the wounded, gave up all the baggage, and immediately led the troops to the main battlefield without stopping.
And at this moment, after just one and a half days, Fina's army had completed the three-day journey, and at this most critical moment, appeared on the battlefield, intercepting the back of the Red Flame Legion and stopping the madness of the Rose Hound.
The soldiers of the Asrex family who came rushing wildly were all not fully equipped, and most of them took off their helmets, armor, and even shields in order to keep up with the troops, and some only had a sword in their hands. They gasped, they didn't rest at all along the way, and their formations were scattered, but they had to face the best-equipped Red Flame Legion of the Duchy of Belmar at once.
However, at this moment, what ignited in the eyes of these soldiers was an incomparably strong fighting spirit.
With just one charge, the rear of the Red Flame Legion was completely cut through. The army of the Asrex family was like a nail, directly nailing the Red Flame Legion that was trying to retreat in the center of Elwin Town. And the overwhelming magic bullet offensive from Fina made the Red Flame soldiers even more frightened, and the formation almost collapsed.
And the Rose Hound on the other end was no less affected by the magic bullet. Fina's attack is not like the magic of ordinary elementalists, her magic power is extremely condensed, it is difficult for the Rose Hound to absorb, and the characteristics of the red mist are even more unable to resist this kind of penetrating attack.
So, the only thing the Rose Hound could do was to devour the Red Flame Legion at a more frantic speed to compensate for the weakened power.
There was a terrifying summoned beast in front, and the back road was sealed again, and the Red Flame Legion, which was caught in the middle, was finally crushed without any suspense after a weak struggle.
"No, it can't be!" Fenrir roared with a bloodshot eye in his hoarse voice, "Damn Fina, damn Midi, how could you possibly win me!"
"Shut up and come with me at once!" General Red Fox roared, grabbing Fenrir and leaving.
The two nobles barely managed to fight their way out under the protection of their guards, but there was no joy in their expressions, but a look of life that was worse than death. for there were not even a hundred men who escaped with them.
A full 7,500 elite soldiers, how many years of accumulation by the Seth family, how much money they invested, how many days and nights of hard work to create the Red Flame Legion, just gone! As for the 1,500 Yorkshire, there is no need to think about it—Fina has fought here, won't she raze that side?
The ordinary soldiers, who had been abandoned by the generals and masters, desperately wanted to escape, but their combat strength was not enough, and the formation was chaotic, and they were finally blocked back. And most of them, without even a chance to surrender, became food for the Rose Hounds.
It's a pity that when the flesh and blood are devoured after all, Fina's magic bullet never stops.
The strength of the Rose Hound grew, and it was never able to keep up with Fina's continuous firepower. It finally began to grow weak, and eventually, it could no longer resist Alice's orders.
The bloody and brutal red mist has finally dissipated, and the banner of the Red Flame Legion has fallen.
As a result, there is no longer any obstacle between the black-haired girl and the red-haired girl.
There are no words, and there is no need, when the Witch of the Mist and the Queen of the Magic Bullet stand side by side, when the black hair like a waterfall and the red hair like autumn maple dance in the wind at the same time, this war is over.
However, the battle belonging to Midi has only just begun.
