Chapter 329: The Holy Land Has Fallen
At noon on the same day, an inexplicable artifact landed in the Xiangshui Holy Land!
It was lunchtime, and more than 100 soldiers of the Hope Legion were sitting relaxed at the long dining table, discussing joint battle plans with allies, or predicting the final outcome of the great battle in the Emerald Duchy, in short, no one would have expected the enemy to appear in such an astonishing way over this extremely secret base at this moment.
When the huge steel monster slowly descended from the sky with a rumbling sound, most of the soldiers even thought it was another trick conjured up by Mrs. Dong. There had been so many miracles in that lake that it was normal for the soldiers to guess like this, after all, such a magical flying object was beyond all their knowledge. However, the instinct of the soldiers prompted them to take up their weapons, quickly enter the battle formation, and cautiously gather towards the lake.
It seemed that the loud monster was planning to land in the center of the lake, where there was no bottom, and even if it was incredibly large, it would soon sink if it could not float on the surface like a large ship.
The mountain people also came out of the houses on the east side, and one by one they showed stunned expressions. They couldn't guess what the sacredness was even if they wanted to break their heads, and even the well-informed Aunt Dong was at a loss. Ignorance sparked worship, and one by one they fell to their knees and bowed to the steel monster.
Joanna, however, noticed something unusual. She stood at the front of the line, and the straight-line distance from the aerial monster was only five or six hundred meters. It seems to be somewhat familiar, except for the conical shape of the lower part, the top glass dome seems to be quite similar to Genhei Town. And, right in that staircase-like gap, she seemed to see three figures. The three figures were wrapped in ice cubes and looked like they had grown in size, but Joanna still felt that they were familiar, especially one of them, who seemed to be the boyfriend who had been separated for nearly two months......
It's definitely not an illusion caused by excessive thoughts, it's indeed Qi Lang!
From rising into the air to flying to the Xiangshui Holy Land, Tissot traveled six or seven hundred kilometers in less than an hour. And this short hour brought unspeakable pain and suffering to him and his two brothers.
The air in the air at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters is thin and the temperature is extremely low, even if Qi Lang tries his best to support a small air hood, but the impact of extreme speed flight is still difficult to resist, thanks to the distance between the Dongmo Plain and here is not too far, otherwise even if he flies out for more than ten minutes, he and the two brothers will be completely frozen into corpses. Rao is like this, Ao Wu and Dong Hong are now also frozen and unconscious, if it weren't for Qi Lang's hands still firmly holding the iron plate under him, I'm afraid they would have fallen down a long time ago, and ended up in a miserable situation.
The shuttle was slowly descending, and the distance was getting closer, and Joanna could finally confirm the identities of the three adventurers, and shouted for a while: "Soldiers, be vigilant, we may be in trouble!"
"Trouble, won't it?" At this time, Qingguo walked up with Xiao Jila in his arms, stretched out his hand and pointed to the top of the flying monster and said, "Have you seen it, Qiaoqiao, it should be Yuanping Town, the strange town of the Zun Holy Sect Brother Ji Meng." I really didn't expect it to look like this, and it can fly......"
As he spoke, a roaring air explosion sounded again, and four fierce pillars of fire erupted from the four iron pipes, and under the high temperature and scorching, a huge whirlpool appeared in the center of the lake, and a large amount of lake water was heated and evaporated, and water vapor rose one after another. It was under the impact of water vapor that the ice cubes on Qi Lang and the other three slowly dissolved, and their already numb hands and feet were regaining consciousness.
And at this moment, the four pillars of fire burst out of black smoke, just like an old machine suddenly malfunctioned, emitting a series of explosions, and finally the fire was completely extinguished, and it actually fell straight down!
"Boom!"
The fetish fell into the water, stirring up evil waves!
Huge waves more than 10 meters high quickly formed from the center of the lake, rushing towards the shore with the momentum of thousands of horses!
The soldiers guarding the front did not have time to retreat, and in the blink of an eye, they were swept into the huge waves and thrown out of the air. Fortunately, the amount of water in Xiangshui Lake is limited, and the water surge is unsustainable after a while, and there is a very gentle slope behind it, and the soldiers have been training by the lake for a long time, and most of them are familiar with water, but they choke on a few mouthfuls of water, and their clothes are all wet, and there is no greater loss.
However, Qingguo was in trouble. In the midst of the huge waves, little Jira was washed out of her arms, and she was about to be carried into the middle of the lake by the falling water, thanks to Joanna's quick opportunity, her body swam a few times, and she fished the little devil's head back.
"What the hell!" Joanna broke out in a cold sweat at this danger, and rushed back to the gentle slope with little Jira in her arms. Just as he was trying to return the little guy to the child's mother, the panicked cries of Clettu and several other soldiers had already sounded: "Be careful, Joanna!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
There was a loud sound of bowstrings, and a rain of arrows flew out from between the battlements of Genping Town, and one of them was flying like lightning towards Joanna's heart!
"No!
Qingguo pounced!
She is not a warrior, just an ordinary girl, an ordinary mother, but when she sees that the best friend who has just saved her child is in danger, her explosive power is beyond imagination, and before Joanna has time to react, she has already jumped over.
Arrows, it's here!
Shot in from the front of her chest and through her thin body!
"Qingguo!"
Joanna widened her eyes, reached out and grabbed Qingguo's waist, and shouted hoarsely.
That's already useless. The arrow dealt a fatal wound, and blood was gushing out of the wound, and even the corners of Qingguo's mouth were foaming at the bloody surface.
"Take care of my child...... Please......"
Qingguo's slightly dark face no longer showed any blood, and after spitting out this last sentence, her head tilted back, and her outstretched palm didn't even have time to touch Little Jira's face, and then she hung limply to the ground.
"No!"
Joanna's tears have burst!
It was the tears she had endured for a long time, the pain of her injuries, the concern of her homeland, and the grievances of unrequited love...... All the suffering and torture, the tears that were never forced out, finally fell at this time.
She took Xiao Jila in the crook of her arm, hugged Qingguo's body that was getting colder, and cried hard. Little Jira stared at her mother with round eyes, and then at the tears in Joanna's eyes, still screaming at her mother in ignorance.
"Get out of the way, Joanna!" Before more arrows could fly, the tall and strong Sergeant Clectus rushed over and dragged Joanna and Qingguo's bodies back. There was hardly any cover around, and it would be very risky to retreat to the top of the hill, so in desperation, Cletus chose the pavilion by the lake as a temporary shelter.
The soldiers of the Hope Legion finally realized the danger and realized that the giant monster flying in the air was actually a secret weapon sent by the enemy, and they raised their bows and arrows one after another, and bravely launched a counterattack. But the shuttle was so tall that even though most of it had sunk to the bottom of the lake, the intact town was still above the water, and the surrounding battlements were hundreds of meters high, which gave the enemy a condescending advantage, and the metal wall was harder than it seemed to be steel, and even Sergeant Edger, an archer who had reached the level of a high-ranking martial artist, could not make the arrow leave the slightest trace on it.
However, the opposing stormtroopers did not show up, as long as it was hoped that the more than 100 soldiers of the legion could firmly hold the position of the gentle slope, at least this bow and arrow shooting alone would not bring too heavy casualties.
Joanna finally regained her senses at this point, and she threw herself back to the steps at the entrance of Genhei Town. Qi Lang was gone, and the other two frozen ice cubes were gone. They must have been thrown into the lake during that rapid fall, and the waves were so great that they could have drowned?
Hatred and anger filled the female warrior's chest in an instant, she handed Little Jira into the hands of Clettu, drew her long sword, rushed out against the rain of arrows, and kept calling out loudly: "Sergeant Qi Lang, where are you? Speak back, I beg you, promise me!"
But Joanna's call did not cause Qi Lang to appear, but caused a squeaky noise. In the midst of this strange noise, small windows appeared in the tall wall, and then, the sound of the straining spring sounded, and more than ten thunder balls flew out of it!
"Retreat!
In addition to the more than 20 new soldiers who joined the army later, most of the soldiers of the Hope Legion had seen the tremendous power of Lei Tuanzi, and they fell into an unprecedented panic for a while, and they all shouted and retreated.
"Boom! boom!"
The flames are blazing, and explosions are heard everywhere!
Although the soldiers of the Hope Legion warned earlier and did not delay the pace of retreat, the number of thunder regiments was too large, and the explosion spread a wide area, and more than ten soldiers were still seriously injured. And the heaviest losses were the mountain people in the rear. No one could have imagined that such a heavy thunder ball could fly as far as six or seven hundred meters, and even seven or eight of them flew directly into the residential areas of the mountain people. Patches of wooden houses were immediately caught in flames, and three or four hundred mountain dwellers were blown to pieces!
And what made Joanna even more nervous was that a thunderball that had just tumbled out of the steel town was flying in the direction of the pavilion!
