Volume 1: The Mystery of the Hidden Dragon Chapter 3: The Gathering
Even if the armor has strong willpower, it can lack part of the memory, and the spiritual barrier has natural defects, and under the impact of this surging mind, the mind is suddenly lost.
"It's going to be bad!"
Armor secretly snorted badly, and a tyrannical thought suddenly took over his mind, squeezing his self-personality into a corner, as if reduced to a spectator, and his body suddenly went out of control.
The change of heart occurred in the lightning and flint, and outsiders did not know it, Miza covered the severed arm where the blood gushed like a spring, and looked at the armor held high by the blade in horror, and his heart was full of fear and despair.
Just when Misa thought that my life was on the stake, the armor's movements were stunned, and the mutation was abrupt!
Rumble!
The surging demonic energy suddenly erupted uncontrollably, like a hurricane from the extreme north, the icy cold mixed with a wet and bloody murderous aura, rich and heavy, like a surging tide.
More tiny armor scales emerged, spreading along the armor's body, transforming into a silver-blue armor covering the whole body, and the whole person was a cut taller out of thin air.
A full set of magic armor descended, covering every inch of the armor's body, and his face was hidden behind the helmet, revealing only two eyeholes burning with bright blue fire, silently looking down at Miza.
The sense of oppression is unleashed unscrupulously, like a Shura coming out of the deep sea.
Syllable.
Misa slumped to the ground, a chill rising in her bones, and boundless fear rose from her heart, and she felt as if she was being watched by a demon, barely able to breathe.
Locked in by this gaze, it was as if all the courage to resist had been drained.
IβI'm going to die......
Just when Misa thought that he was about to be slashed to death, the next second, he was stunned to see the armor directly throw him down, and plunged headlong into the place with the largest number of people in the melee.
The soldiers of the Great Wall had formed a military formation, besieging the desert bandits, only to see that the armor did not distinguish between the enemy and me, and all the people who approached were sent out, and each sword was powerful and heavy, and soon the surrounding area became a vacuum, and no one should approach.
His sudden outburst directly broke up the military formation of the soldiers of the Great Wall and tore apart the tight encirclement.
Where did the desert bandits care about the situation, and when they saw that the escape opportunity would appear, they quickly scattered and fled like a pot, and the good situation that was in the hands of the guards of the Great Wall was suddenly chaotic.
"Oh no, his magic armor is out of control again!"
Baili Shouyu's expression changed slightly.
Hua Mulan was startled, and he didn't care about killing and injuring the bandits, and stepped on the crowd like a swallow to quickly approach the rampaging armor, and shouted:
"Armor, calm down!"
However, the armor didn't answer, as if he didn't recognize his teammates, and raised his knife at Mulan and slashed.
Mulan's face tightened, her hands were closed, and the two light swords merged, turning into a heavy sword, facing the sky.
Clang!
With a loud buzz, the heavy sword held against the powerful blade of the armor, and burst into fierce sparks.
He lost consciousness, everyone obeyed the order, and the ordinary soldiers continued to exterminate the bandits, keep the covenant, shield the mountain, and help him suppress the power of the demon armor. β
Mulan's tone was serious, her arms sank, she deflected the angle of the heavy sword, and removed the armor in the shocking state of the demon armor, and then circled the armor like a butterfly piercing flowers, dodging gracefully like a dance, and dodging the sweeping blade that broke through the air again and again.
"This power is a time bomb......
Baili Shouyue shook his ears, his expression was serious, he pulled the trigger, and the bullet hit the magic armor, and the bullet started with a little spark.
Although Captain Mulan only accepted Armor as a foreigner not long ago, and there are not many tasks that everyone has carried out together, everyone already knows that Armor has a magic armor containing powerful demonic power, once it is summoned, just like a god descending from the earth, few people in the Great Wall Guards can confront it head-on.
Relying on such strength, on the way to the mission, the armor team solved many strong enemies.
But everyone knows that this is a double-edged sword, and the Gain armor cannot fully control the power of the magic armor, and will occasionally be affected by the side effects of the magic armor, temporarily lose his mind, unable to communicate, attack without distinguishing between friend and foe, and enter a state of loss of control - this is also the reason why the armor was once wanted in the cloud region.
At the beginning, Mulan did not pursue the armor, but accepted him, that is, she saw that the armor's rampage was not intentional, so she invited him to join the Great Wall Guards, take him with him, so that his rampage would no longer hurt civilians, and tried to help him completely control this power.
It's just that the armor's rampage,Occasionally disrupt the team's battle plan.,The team members have no opinion on him.,I know it's not the armor's intention.,But it's quite a complaint about the fact that the magic armor often gets out of control.,But there's nothing to be done.,I can only actively help this new teammate who hasn't been in for a long time.,I hope to help the armor solve this problem one day.γ
Therefore, it is not the first time that the team has helped the armor suppress the rampage of the demon armor, and now it can be regarded as experienced.
But even if you rush up, you can't help the armor in the advent of the demon armor for a while.
While the group was fighting, some desert bandits took advantage of the chaos set off by the armor to break out of the encirclement and flee in all directions.
Misa also recovered from his bewilderment, but still in shock, endured the pain of a broken arm, quickly seized a horse, fought his way out of the encirclement under the escort of a dozen cronies, and quickly rushed out of the village, about to disappear into the long yellow sand.
Baili Shoujo noticed Miza's movements, quickly turned the muzzle, held his breath and aimed at Miza's back.
The task of this trip, one is to wipe out the bandits, and the other is to kill the leader Miza, because of the armor's rampage, the former can no longer be done, he thinks that at least the completion of the one, otherwise let the culprit escape, maybe one day it will rise again, and kill again in the desert in the clouds.
Just when Baili Shou Yu locked on Miza, the armor not far away seemed to be annoyed by long-range bullets, and he resisted the attack of Hua Mulan and others, threw out a whirling blade, and shot at Baili Shou Yu through the air.
The sharp whirling blade reflected cold light, flickering in the pupils of Baili Shoujo, but he looked at Miza who was getting farther and farther away, and suddenly made up his mind to simply ignore the attacking whirling blade, and to pull the trigger if he kept the posture of raising his gun to aim, and hit Miza even if he was injured.
Bang!
A second before the gunshot, Dunshan bounced violently, knocked down Baili Shoujo, and rolled on the ground together, and the whirling blade missed.
Because of the rescue of Dunshan, the shot of Baili Shouyue was naturally biased to the point that he didn't know where to go, and Misa was out of range and disappeared from view.
Seeing that the last opportunity slipped away, Baili Shouyue twitched out of the corner of his eyes, and silently looked at the shield mountain that was pressed under him.
"Woo-too-too-tuck?"
Dunshan seemed to wonder why he was staring at himself and tilted his head.
β...... Alas, it's all right. β
Baili Shou sighed helplessly.
At this moment, the empty whirling blade drew an arc and was about to fly back to the armor's body, but what made everyone's pupils shrink was that there were exactly two militiamen blocking the route of the whirling blade retracting, and the two did not see the danger behind them and avoided it.
"Get out of the way!"
Hua Mulan didn't care about anything else, dodged to the rescue, and the heavy sword separated and turned into two light swords, splitting the whirling blade at the last moment, and kicking the two villagers aside with a kick.
But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, a vicious wind suddenly hit behind her, and it was the armor that took advantage of the fact that no one was restrained, grabbed her flaws and rushed to kill.
Hua Mulan hurriedly twisted her waist and turned around to parry, but the strength of the emergency condensation could not stop the horizontal slash of the armor at all.
Boom!
The huge force exploded, and Mulan's whole person was like a cannonball, and the blade of the armor flew straight out, crashing through the military formation of the soldiers of the Great Wall at once, and smashing through the village wall on the other side with a bang.
In the midst of the flying sawdust, Mulan did not move, leaving only blood stains spilled along the way, apparently injured.
"Captain!"
"Sir!"
The faces of the crowd changed suddenly.
Seeing this scene, the armor's movements suddenly stopped, froze in place, and in the spiritual world, the self-personality that was squeezed into the corner by the power of the magic armor rebounded violently, snatching the control of the body, trying to break free from the suppression of the magic armor.
"Hurry up...... Down with me...... I can't control it for long......"
Under the helmet of demon armor that covered his face, the armor squeezed a hoarse voice out of his clenched teeth.
Baili Shou didn't care to check the captain's situation, and without saying a word, he raised his gun and fired, one bullet after another hit the magic armor, sparks splashed everywhere, and the power of the warhead pushed the armor's body back.
The armor didn't have any blocking and dodging movements, and he used his own personality willpower to resist the magic armor's manipulation of his body with difficulty, making himself unable to move.
At this time, the shield mountain rushed like a rolling stone, and a tiger pounced on the armor under him, raised the stone head high, aimed at the armor's head, and hit it hard.
DUANGοΌDUANGοΌDUANGοΌ
smashed seven or eight times in a row like ringing a bell, and the power of the magic armor was finally weakened to a critical point, and the armor relied on its willpower to immediately seize the initiative, and without saying a word, the summoning was lifted.
With a buzz, I saw that the armor that had been conjured out suddenly disintegrated, turning into blue light chips, which disappeared with the wind, revealing the appearance of armor.
The armor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to speak, but it was dark in front of him, and he saw that Dunshan's big head couldn't stop the car and hit it again.
Boom!
......
Half an hour later.
As Miza and some of the bandits took advantage of the chaos, the battle soon ended, and the remaining desert bandits who could not escape were subdued, and the soldiers of the Great Wall Guards began to clean up the battlefield and help the villagers repair their homes.
This time, they received the news that the Missa gang was going to attack the village, and they had set an ambush and trap here, but now they had fallen short, and many of their colleagues had been cut in vain.
While working, many Great Wall soldiers frequently looked at the Mulan squad talking together not far away, and their eyes mainly fell on the armor, and their eyes were quite dissatisfied.
"Although we annihilated some of the desert bandits this time, Missa himself fled, and the operation was a failure. β
Hua Mulan hung her left hand with a bandage, her eyebrows and eyes condensed and gloomy, and she sighed.
β...... My mistakes. Armor whispered, apologetic gleam in his eyes.
"Alas, fortunately, no other soldiers were killed this time, and at most they were only slightly wounded, which is a blessing in misfortune...... Alas, such a good opportunity, what a pity. Hua Mulan was quite unwilling, and smashed her thigh with a fist with her right hand, which was a pity.
β...... I'm sorry. Kai paused, with self-reproach and concern in his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "How is your injury?"
"I'm fine, just take a break. β
Mulan waved her hand casually, she parried in a hurry, and her arm was injured by the huge force of the blade, but she didn't care very much, and her long battlefield career had made her accustomed to injuries.
Then she paused in her tone, pointed to the armor and asked curiously:
"Speaking of which, what's going on with your nose?"
"An accident. β
Covering his bleeding nose, he replied sullenly, and the shield mountain on the side tilted his head, looking very innocent.
Hua Mulan shook her head, and her tone became serious, "Miza and the others escape, if there is a comeback one day, there will be civilians in the clouds who will suffer, armor, the consequences of this loss of control, you must know it yourself, military law is military law, and the higher authorities will inevitably punish you, and I can't intercede for you." β
"I'll take responsibility. Armor didn't hesitate and nodded heavily.
It took a lot of effort for his teammates to successfully ambush Miza, but his hard work was wasted because of his loss of control, and although he didn't show it on his face, he felt guilty in his heart.
The thought of Miza, who had escaped alive because of himself, was likely to commit another crime in the future, causing more civilians in the clouds to be looted and killed, and a strong sense of guilt came over him, like a heavy weighing weight, which made his heart heavy. All of this could have been avoided, and those innocent civilians would not have suffered this fate.
Baili Shoujo stood with his arms crossed, frowned, and asked: "Captain, now is not the time to investigate, what should I do next?"
"I can only let the Great Wall continue to inquire about Miza's whereabouts, we can't catch up with them now, let's go back to the Great Wall." Mulan sighed.
"That's all there is to it. β
Baili Shoujo nodded.
At this time, the adjutant who led the Great Wall army came over, first gave a military salute to Mulan, and then glared at the armor, and then said in a deep voice:
"Report to the chief, the casualty count of this operation has been completed, and there are ...... in total."
"Armor, you go and bandage it first. Mulan suddenly spoke, interrupting the adjutant's report.
β...... Good. β
The armor's eyes drooped slightly.
Baili Shouyue blinked, thought about it, patted Kai's shoulder, and comforted: "This defeat is just an accident, don't take it too seriously." β
Armor didn't answer, just nodded slightly, turned and walked away.
He didn't go far before he heard a faint quarrel behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that the adjutant was talking about something in an emotional mood, but Hua Mulan had a dull face, and the two said a few words, and the adjutant left indignantly.
Kai silently watched this scene.
Of course, he understood that Hua Mulan deliberately supported him, not wanting him to hear the casualty statistics of the Great Wall soldiers, so as to take care of his feelings, many Great Wall soldiers were cut by themselves who were out of control, although no one died, but the soldiers must have an opinion.
Not only ordinary Great Wall soldiers, Kai believes that even the team members must have a lot of complaints in their hearts, but they just take care of his new teammate's emotions on the surface, and don't say it, but he won't be at ease as if it's okay, especially since he accidentally injured Mulan this time.
"Demon Armor ......"
A flash of self-reproach flashed in his eyes.
On the other side, Baili Shou made an appointment to see the armor go away, so he looked at Mulan again, and reluctantly spoke: "Captain, this is not the first time he has lost control, when do you think he will be able to completely control the magic armor?"
"I don't know. Mulan let out a sigh.
"Armor is a reliable man, I have no problem with him, but the timing of the battlefield is changing rapidly, and we can't let his magic armor run wild and disrupt our battle plan. β
Baili Shouyue pursed his lips and said softly.
Mulan frowned, "Could it be that you agreed to the adjutant's proposal just now?"
"These are two different things. His lone wolf style of play really doesn't fit in with our team. Baili Shouyue shook his head slightly and explained, "Either convince him to change his fighting style, or simply let him obey our command......"
"I'll talk to him and give him some more time to believe he can get over it eventually. Hua Mulan hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "After I go back this time, I don't know what the punishment for the armor from above is, I'm afraid it won't be light, and the soldiers have a lot of opinions about him......
As she spoke, she couldn't help but think of her encounter with Armor.
According to the armor, he had forgotten why he was in the clouds, only remembering that when he woke up, he was already in the desert in the clouds, with the corpses of many half-blood demon species lying beside him, and he also had multiple wounds on his body, as if he had fainted after a hard battle, completely forgetting the memories of the past, only the fighting skills that had formed an instinct were not forgotten, and the only things on his body at that time were weapons and magic armor.
The yellow sand is thousands of miles, but there is no direction of confusion, and the armor that has lost its memory can only wander alone in the clouds, wandering in one area after another, gradually being used by others, and becoming the hole card of the bad guy without knowing it. The first time they met, Armor was Mulan's opponent and enemy.
But Mulan ignored her previous suspicions, and after getting along and observing the armor's personality, Mulan made up her mind and fooled ...... Invite Armor to join the Great Wall and become a teammate.
And this is what happened not long ago, and few people in the outside world know that although Mulan treats the team equally, she secretly pays more attention to the situation of the armor.
"Then I'll find time to appease him, I hope this incident won't let him have too much psychological pressure...... Anyway, Kai looked expressionless all day long, and no one knew what he was thinking. Baili Shouyue smiled slightly.
"Besides, I...... Shh
Mulan was halfway through speaking, a flash of pain suddenly flashed on her face, and she covered her injured arm.
Baili Shou was startled and hurriedly helped her, "Are you okay?"
β...... It's okay, leave me alone, let the troops set off and go back to the Great Wall. β
Mulan was so pained that fine beads of sweat broke out on her head, obviously the injury was not as light as she said.
