Chapter 503: Thrilling Breakthrough
PS: In order to impact the divine light faster, each chapter is changed to two thousand words, and three chapters are updated every day, hehe!
Iron Mask's arm was wrapped in bandages, Shadow Dance's black robe was cut with a big hole, a hole was poked in her light leg, Tiger Niu pressed the wound on her head tightly with a cotton cloth, Morning Star's face had a bruise, and the others were not much better, Iron Mask and his group of more than ten people were almost all injured, and they were lying on the top of a warehouse near the east city wall in the north of the pass and sighed.
Iron Mask's face was frightened, until now, his heart was still beating at a rate of one hundred and fifty times per minute, recalling the thrill just now, Iron Mask still had palpitations on his face.
Just twenty minutes ago, when Wang Yong and others and the assault wing unexpectedly occupied the west wall of the pass, the shocking shouting and killing alarm alarmed a group of senior officers who were venting their desires at the drinking party, and got a report from the guards, learning that the enemy had captured the west city wall, and the peak desire of the officers was instantly suppressed by this sudden news. Put on his clothes, pushed the maid who was still in love with him to the ground, and after a period of scramble, he rushed out of the hall where the drinking party was held, and rushed back to the headquarters to organize a counterattack.
But when a group of officers ran out of the hall with their pants on, something unexpected happened, just at the commander's mansion that they thought was the safest, a group of unidentified black-robed people rushed out of the darkness.
That's right, these black-robed people are the members of the Black Hand led by Iron Mask and Shadow Dance, and more than thirty high-ranking officers of the Eternal Empire have fallen in a pool of blood under their sneak attack, while the other half has almost lost their combat effectiveness, and only a few masters with real materials are still struggling to resist stubbornly.
Iron Mask was sure that he and his companions would kill all the officers here, including the commanders of the two armies, together, but he also knew that he could not fight at this time. Otherwise, their fate would not be very good, so they sent a signal for their subordinates scattered nearby to evacuate quickly, because their goal had been achieved.
However, Iron Mask underestimated the reaction speed and adaptability of the guards around the mansion, and the order to evacuate was still too late, and before they could climb over the wall and leave, they were surrounded by at least one brigade of heavily armored escorts who had arrived, and there were also three junior warriors and an intermediate knight to help.
Looking at the vigorous posture and unhurried movements of these guards, we know that they are definitely not ordinary soldiers, at least they are warriors of a hundred battles.
Actually, if only these people. With the strength of Tie Mian and the others, they are still sure to break through, but behind these guards, there is still a steady stream of soldiers coming, which makes Tie Mian's heart sink.
Iron Mask and the others have walked in the dark all year round, and they have also assassinated many high-ranking bigwigs in the limited environment of the masters, but this is the first time that they have attacked and killed many high-ranking officers in the barracks surrounded by heavy troops, and it is also the first time that they have faced a sea of soldiers head-on.
Iron Mask knew that time was pressing, and the longer it dragged on, the less chance of survival, so he could give orders to the guards before Commander Isaac, who had survived, gave orders to these guards. Iron Mask made a gesture to Shadow Dance, motioning for her to lead the others to break through from the east, and Iron Mask resolutely rushed to Isaac with the determination to die. In order to attract the attention of the guards, cover the escape of Shadow Dance and the others.
However, what Tie Mian didn't expect, and what he felt pleasantly surprised, suddenly came from a high-pitched eagle chirp in the dark night sky. Immediately, more than a dozen huge and swift figures of the Thunder Eagle swooped down from the sky, blinking with a piercing whistling sound, and spit out thick thunder chains in the air of more than twenty meters. Nearly half of the guards who had gathered together in all-iron armor were killed.
Then, these thunder eagles circled sideways, quickly divided into two teams, and released the thunder chain again, electrifying the soldiers who were coming from the south and north to scorch, and finally, under the command of the scout, these thunder eagles suddenly instigated their wings to raise their height, and disappeared into the dark night sky in a blink of an eye.
It's not that these scouts don't want to support Iron Mask and the others more, but because Thunderhawk's defense is not high, even the crossbow arrows of ordinary crossbows can't resist, and in this dangerous enemy camp, it is easy to be killed by a large number of crossbow arrows, so the scouts never stay in one place too much, and immediately raise to a safe height after completing the support mission, looking for the opportunity to strike again.
With the magical support of Thunder Eagle, Iron Mask and the others took advantage of the huge loophole in the enemy's encirclement to immediately break through to the eastern wall. However, even if Lei Ying killed more than half of the guards, there were still many guards who stood up to surround them, and even at the east wall, where there were the least number of people, there were more than 20 heavily armored guards who raised their spears diagonally, aiming the sharp tips of their spears at the oncoming Iron Mask and others, and also blocked their retreat.
Iron Mask knew that this was the last chance, so he yelled: "Fight, I'll break it, Shadow Dance, you take the others to go first." Knowing that this was not the time to push, Shadow Dance was the first to rush towards the array of guns.
Shadow Dance dodged the oncoming spear and then took a dodge and slid in front of the guard, using the guard's body to block the angle of the other guards' attacks, and then the dagger in his hand mercilessly pierced deep into the guard's mask, killing him on the spot.
Then Qingling and Hu Niu and others who came also took action, killing five guards in an instant, but most of their daggers were stuck by the guards' heavy armor, and it was difficult to pull out for a while.
After fending off the full force of the pursuing mid-level knight, the broken Iron Face killed a junior warrior with a thrust blade, but his own arm was cut open.
At this time, Shadow Dance and the others exchanged their injuries for their lives, killing all the twenty or so guards as quickly as possible, and after the others climbed over the wall, Shadow Dance, Light Spirit and Morning Star turned around to support Iron Mask in a very tacit understanding, forcing several masters who were chasing back to retreat, and then together with Iron Mask, they climbed over the wall and withdrew from the commander's mansion.
However, even if he escaped from the mansion, the vicinity was full of Eternal Empire soldiers who were alarmed by the shouts of killing coming from the city wall, and Iron Mask led a group of subordinates, stopping and stopping all the way, and after rushing through several lines of defense, he could get rid of the enemy's pursuit and come to this relatively safe material storage warehouse.
