Volume 1: The Mystery of the Hidden Dragon Chapter 10: The Black Liquor Guild
"You ......"
Armor was surprised, he didn't expect anyone to support him, and he also didn't expect the village militia of Otsuki Village to appear at this time.
Wang Nian guessed what he was going to say, and while dealing with the sand bandits, he quickly explained: "It's my son...... It's Wang Xiaosha, he followed you all the way, I want to thank you, I'm afraid that he will meet a sand bandit, with some people chasing him behind, he found out about the situation here, and wants to go back to the village to ask for help, just happened to meet us on the road, so I rushed over immediately. β
In the afternoon, Wang Xiaosha grabbed the horse and ran away, making Wang Nian angry, but he was worried that his son would encounter an accident, so he had no choice but to quickly arrange the deployment of the village, and then brought hundreds of militiamen out to follow Wang Xiaosha's trail.
Not long ago, Wang Xiaosha anxiously went back to the village to ask for help, and happened to bump into Wang Nian's group of people on the way, and before Wang Nian cleaned him up, he was overjoyed and asked Wang Nian and others for help.
"It turned out to be that young man? He has been following me?" Kai couldn't help but flash the appearance of Wang Xiaosha's child in his mind, his mood was inexplicable, and then he was a little puzzled, and muttered: "But I was still surprised, you would actually help me." β
He had learned the attitude of Dayue Village during the day, and the other party was obviously unwilling to cause more trouble, and he also issued an eviction order, he didn't understand why Wang Nian's attitude turned 180 degrees.
Hearing this, Wang Nian couldn't help but think of the picture when Wang Xiaosha asked them for help before.
When he learned of the "infighting" between Kai and his party, Wang Nian also hesitated to intervene, but Wang Xiaosha was righteous and stern - he helped us, can we just sit back and watch him fall into danger?!
That's right......
In the daytime, he had to be vigilant against outsiders for the sake of the safety of the village, although he doubted the identity of the armor and his party, but he was not completely ungrateful, it was just his duty.
Now that the village is re-armed, Wang Nian doesn't have to worry about it for the time being, and the armor broke with the group of "guards" and obviously divided into two positions, which made Wang Nian really believe that the armor was the Great Wall guard, but for some reason they were mixed together.
But no matter what, he learned from Wang Xiaosha that the decision to support Dayue Village during the day was completely driven by Kai alone, and since they saved them once, he couldn't sit back and watch Kai alone fall into danger now!
All kinds of thoughts flashed, and Wang Nian's tone was categorical:
"Don't blame me for being wary of you, because your past wanted and rumors have made us jealous. But now I know that your goal is simply to help us fight off the bandits, not even for any reward. You call yourself the Guardian of the Great Wall, whether it's true or not, since you've protected us, there's no way we're going to stand idly by and watch what happens to you, a benefactor!
Tonight, let's fight side by side!"
Duty and morality have always been clearly distinguished.
As he put it...... He's not a guy who doesn't know how to repay his kindness!
The armor was stunned, and a warm current surged in his heart, pulling the corners of his mouth, revealing a rare smile from the heart.
He protected the village and repelled the bandits, partly because of his duty as the Great Wall Guard, and secondly, because of his personality, and he never thought of getting any reward from the villagers of Dayue Village.
But when he was in danger, the people he had protected also stepped forward to protect him......
Feeling the support of Wang Nian and the militia, the armor was all touched at this moment.
With his free hand, he subconsciously touched the position of his heart.
The current situation of amnesia makes the armor empty most of the time, and there is always a feeling of emptiness in my heart as if a corner is missing, and there has never been a moment when I feel fulfilled as now, as if the gap in my heart has been filled and some kind of support has appeared.
'Is this what the Great Wall Guards call belonging......
Armor muttered to himself.
He still remembers that his colleagues in the Great Wall Guards once said more than once: "That sense of belonging to the clouds, to the civilians, to the robes, makes people willing to risk their lives to protect the people here." β
Before today, it was hard for Armor to understand what it was like.
It was only now that he felt that he had touched that complex feeling, which was agitation, excitement, responsibility, and heaviness...... It is also the fullness of the soul, as if in this day-to-day life, I have found the meaning of life.
At this moment, it seemed that even the long yellow sand under his feet became close.
"It's just a hundred or so militiamen, take them down!"
Cyrol's roar interrupted Armor's thoughts.
The sand bandits were stunned for a while, but after all, they were outlaws who licked blood from the knife's edge, and with the fighting, they quickly adjusted and fiercely faced the militia team led by Wang Nian.
In terms of combat effectiveness alone, the sand bandits who plundered everywhere were still more fierce, and the militia was good at relying on fortifications.
Moreover, the number of sand bandits was several times that of the militia team, and soon many of the militia were wounded, so they could only stand next to each other, form a defensive circle, and hand over their backs to their colleagues to resist the pressure of the sand bandits.
However, someone shared the pressure, and the armor had time to catch his breath and slowly recover some strength.
At this moment, Kunluo suddenly jumped out of the crowd again, and his two knives rolled up a fierce wave of qi and slashed out.
The target is not armor, it is the year of the king!
Wang Nian shouted angrily, and the iron spear stabbed out, bringing a lightning-like silver glow, piercing straight into the sand-yellow sword light.
Kunluo had already prepared, lightly changed his moves, changed the trajectory of the double knife, attached the gun head, and slashed at the same time as the stabbing attack.
Ziziziββ
The blade slid against the iron spear, making a tooth-sore grinding sound and splashing sparks.
Wang Nian shook the tail of the gun, and the entire iron spear seemed to turn into an extension of the limbs, and it flicked suddenly, just like shaking an arm, bursting out with a tremor of energy, wanting to break Kunluo apart.
The twin knives were flicked away, and Kunluo leaned as if he had lost his balance, but at this moment, the prepared backhand knife stabbed out at a tricky angle, piercing Wang Nian's forearm in the middle of the iron spear.
In the next second, Kunluo quickly retracted his knife, and walked away, following the unbalanced momentum, his footsteps turned, turning like a spinning top to dodge the slash from the armor support, and re-dodging into the crowd.
"How's the injury?" said the armor forced Kunluo back, looking at Wang Nian.
"Minor injuries, no problem. β
Wang Nian changed to a single-handed gun, and the wound on his other hand was bleeding profusely, and his head was sweating in pain, and he gritted his teeth and stiffened.
At this time, Kunluo's voice sounded in the crowd again.
"Skills, armor, don't you want to protect them, then just arrest them, otherwise I will kill these militiamen, starting with this militia captain. β
Sirol's eyes lit up, and he echoed: "Armor, if you don't want these militiamen to die, then lay down your weapons!"
He still remembered the situation during the day, the armor took the initiative to participate in the defense of Dayue Village, and he must have cared about the lives of civilians, although this group of militia destroyed the good situation of the previous siege, but just used the militia to threaten the armor and let the armor be captured.
The armor turned a deaf ear, did not waver, and did not bother to say anything.
Of course he cares about the lives and deaths of these militiamen, but laying down his arms? is waiting to be killed, he is not so naΓ―ve.
Glancing at the wounded militiamen, the armor made a decision:
"Withdraw yourselves, and I will cut you off. β
"How can that work?!" Wang Nian immediately refused.
Kai shook his head and said solemnly: "You have already helped me, let me breathe a sigh of relief, this is enough, continue to fight, even if you suffer heavy casualties, you will not be able to reverse the situation." β
He has been watching the battlefield, looking for an opportunity to win, but the result has left him helpless.
Although, the support of hundreds of militiamen moved him very much, and also helped him resolve a dangerous situation, and also brought a chance to breathe, but it was far from enough to turn the tide of the battle, and could only slow down the speed of defeat.
You may be able to stand to the end, use the respite to regain your strength to escape, and with the cooperation of the militia, find an opportunity to break through......
But armor won't do this, his character can't do anything to abandon these militias who support him and run away alone.
But if you continue to fight like this, I am afraid that I and these militiamen will be planted here together......
"If only one of them can escape, I hope it's you...... You have to hurry back to Dayue Village, so that the village is on guard, so as not to be attacked by this group of sand bandits. β
Armor took a deep breath.
The target of this group of sand bandits is him, and if he tries desperately to cover the retreat of the militia, these sand bandits will not chase the militia.
He had already made up his mind.
Even if you risk your life, you have to cover the militia to leave safely.
Even if you summon the magic armor, there is a chance that you will turn into a rampaging Shura, and you will not hesitate......
"You...... This...... Alas!"
Wang Nian's face was tangled, but he also knew that nothing could be done, only one side of them and the armor could retreat, and someone had to stay behind to break the rear.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and resumed his decisiveness:
"Stay in formation and retreat!"
"Want to go?"
Kunluo struck out of the crowd again, and this time, the armor locked onto his figure and rushed straight to intercept it, his momentum rising rapidly, like a hurricane passing through it, rolling up the raging air.
The blade of the sword rises, and the blue light explodes!
"Extreme! Blade, Wind, Storm!"
Brush - bang!!
First, the blade quickly cut through the air, and then, the huge power exploded, like a bomb detonated in mid-air!
The waves of qi rolled, containing a shock wave of sharp sword qi, and in an instant, a large area of sand bandits swept by the sword light swept away.
It seemed to rain in the sky, plopping and falling out of the sand pits, screaming one after another.
Kunluo's feet were deep in the sand, dragging a long furrow, and the arm holding the double knife trembled slightly, and drops of blood flowed from his palm.
A drop of cold sweat slipped down his sideburns.
What a terrible knife move...... If this guy is in good condition, he will definitely not be able to beat him......
Kunluo felt a chill in his heart.
This knife cut off the pursuit momentum of the sand bandits, directly separated the sand bandits and the militia team, and the armor alone stopped in the middle of the two sides, standing still and not falling.
Looking at the tall posture of the armor, in a trance, whether it is the militia or the sand bandits, there are many people who seem to see the majestic Great Wall.
"Whew...... Whew......"
Unleashing this sword, the armor's breath became heavier, this blow consumed all the physical strength recovered just now, but if you don't do this, you can't stop all the enemies, the sand bandit can completely entangle him, and then let people bypass him to pursue the militia.
In order to break off, he had no reservations.
Boundless exhaustion erupted from within the body, sweeping through every nerve.
Even his tenacious willpower was shocked by this feeling of tiredness, and he hated to have to lie down and rest, as if there was a magnetic force between his eyelids, and he just wanted to close it again.
Cyrol recovered from the shock, keenly noticed this, suppressed the fear in his heart, and cried out urgently:
"He's already tired, don't be scared by him, don't let him find a chance to regain his strength!"
β...... That's right, everybody!"
Kunluo gritted his teeth, but he was also ruthless, and with a turn of his two knives, he rushed towards the armor again.
The other sand bandits also suppressed their fear, fierce Dafa, howled, and charged with the boss, like a turbulent wave, wanting to drown the reef that blocked the way.
Looking at this scene, the armor exhaled a breath of turbidity, glanced back, and confirmed that the militia had opened a safe distance, then withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes slightly, and sank into the deep sea, hooking the power that had been silent for a long time.
If only my teammates were by my side......
There is really a limit to what one person can do.
I am tired......
Come on, Demon Armor......
Let me bloom again.
Bang!
Just as the light of the magic armor was about to shine, distant gunfire pierced the night sky.
A brass bullet spanned nearly a kilometer and hit Kunroe in the chest, knocking him to the ground with a single shot.
Blood flowers are in full bloom.
The armor was stunned for a moment, stopped summoning the demon armor, and looked back.
In the far sky of night, Baili Shouyue stood up from a sand dune, blew the smoke from the muzzle of the gun, shook his ears, shook off the sand and dust stuck to it, and raised his fingers in front of his forehead, and said "You're welcome".
Shield Mountain's head poked out from behind the sand dunes, and its huge body slowly emerged, and Mulan stood on Shield Mountain's shoulder, looking in the direction of the armor.
"Luckily, I caught up with ......"
Seeing the armor standing on the spot, Mulan exhaled softly, and her face showed excitement.
Hurry up and hurry up for so many days, and finally catch up!
And behind the three of them, a new batch of Dayue village militia climbed the sand dunes, and a hundred more people could appear here, which already represented something.
Armor smiled.
It was the second time he had a heartfelt smile tonight.
Armor turned his head and looked at Kunluo, who was grinning in pain, and Sirol, whose face had changed greatly in the distance, and laughed softly:
"My partner is here. β
This, this......
Sirol's eyes widened, and his body trembled slightly.
I didn't expect to be caught up by these guys!
Chaotic thoughts collided in his mind, and strong remorse welled up in his heart.
If you hadn't met that little kid on the road......
If the armor hadn't insisted on helping Otsuki Village, Otsuki Village wouldn't know Armor's whereabouts......
If the armor hadn't delayed most of the day......
If only the first militias had not shown up......
This series of coincidences are interlocking, forming a chain reaction that makes the possibility of the Mulan team catching up a conclusive reality, and also makes his plan completely shattered!
"Leave!"
Sirol didn't have time to get frustrated, and shouted in panic.
Quinro rolled over and got up, his chest muscles tensed, and he squeezed out a blood-stained twisted warhead, his eyes full of fear.
If it weren't for the bullet crossing thousands of kilometers and greatly reducing its power, he would probably have been shot through the heart by this shot.
Hearing Sirol's shout, Kunluo did not hesitate, beckoned his subordinates, and then turned around and ran, and the sand bandits around him quickly followed, running towards the temporary camp not far away.
Hua Mulan and other new reinforcements are still thousands of meters away, and it will take some time to run over, enough for the sand bandits to ride the camels and horses in the camp and escape in the sand boats.
Naturally, the armor would not watch them flee, and the light of the magic armor shone violently.
Before, he was worried that if he got out of control, no one would stop him, but at this time, his partners arrived, although he didn't know the reason, but he had no scruples!
The dazzling blue light bloomed, and the dark blue armor scales emerged from the void, climbing along the ends of the limbs and clinging to the whole body, turning into a silver-blue armor, the face was covered by the helmet, and the whole person was covered under the magic armor, with only two eyes burning with blue fire, exuding a sharp sense of oppression.
The rich demonic path energy was surging and spurting, with the humidity of the sea tide, and the silver-blue armored warriors strode forward, like Shura walking out of the deep sea.
New power was born from the body, wandering through the body, and in an instant, the body, which had been extremely tired, became strong and powerful again, the feeling of weakness disappeared, and an endless stream of physical strength poured out of the bones.
Brush!
The speed of the armor skyrocketed, and it burst into the enemy formation, and the blade rolled up the power of the tsunami-like demonic path, wantonly pouring heavy slashes, like a storm crashing on the shore, and exploded in a chain among the sand bandits.
"Demon Armor, Extreme Blade Storm, Wild Waves!"
A full set of magic armor on the upper body, whether it is strength, speed or move power, has skyrocketed in an all-round way!
The ground was smashed into huge craters, and large sand bandits were swept out by the shock wave and smashed into rolling gourds.
Kunluo ran the fastest, heard the continuous screams behind him, looked back, and suddenly felt dead.
"This guy still has such power?!"
He also thought that the armor had reached its limit and was the end of the strong crossbow, but the power that erupted at this moment made him extremely frightened.
Kunluo didn't dare to stop him at all, he gritted his teeth, ignoring the massive killing of his subordinates by the armor, and the speed of escape under his feet increased even more.
And on the sand dunes in the distance, seeing this shocking scene, the faces of Mulan and Baili Shouyu changed slightly.
"He's summoned Demon Armor again!"
Worried that the armor would get out of control again, Mulan hurriedly jumped off the shoulder of the shield mountain and galloped towards the battlefield first, leaving the others far behind.
Until she rushed to the battlefield, the armor was still rushing left and right in the sand bandits, like a fierce tiger slaughtering a flock of sheep, and the sword was extremely violent.
"Calm down!"
With dual swords in hand, Mulan burst into the battlefield, stabbed over the sand bandits along the way, leaned towards the side of the armor, and subconsciously shouted.
When out of control, Armor can't communicate, but she still shouts like this every time, hoping to let Armor come to her senses and get rid of the ferocity of Demon Armor.
In addition, this will also attract the attention of the armor, so that the out-of-control armor will target her.
However, the next moment, Mulan was stunned.
I saw that the armor slashed a few sand bandits, turned his head to look over, and suddenly said:
"Captain, I'm calm. β
β...... Wait, you're not out of control?"
Mulan's eyes widened, and a look of surprise flashed.
"I'm feeling better than ever now, I feel ...... I'm probably not going to be robbed of my mind by the magic armor. β
Armor's eyes are clear.
