Chapter 92 The power of "Sand King"
Just as Eugene judged.
The panicked packhorses don’t know who their master is. The Eagle Army can take advantage of them, as can the horse thieves.
Doing this is equivalent to smoothing out the terrain advantage that the Eagle Army has worked so hard to cultivate. Although the horse thieves have also lost their speed and mobility, the advantages in numbers and individual quality can be reflected.
Under the protection of twelve scorpion claw guards, Heleti watched everything happening on the battlefield with cold eyes.
From beginning to end, his eyes never left Eric.
The second-level Iron Knight is considered a strong man even in the bloody highlands, and is enough to pull up a named horse thieves army.
Whether it was killing Jose yesterday due to a numerical disadvantage, or using the packhorse wall to delay his offensive today, Eric's performance far exceeded Heleti's expectations.
So Heleti is still waiting, waiting for Eric's next move.
Why does he dare to fight with himself here, and why does he dare to fight with him here! ?
As Eugene's order was carried out, the horse thieves dismounted one after another and began to infiltrate into the packhorse city wall.
This immediately put huge pressure on the Eagle Army.
Even though the Eagle Army works together in groups of three, the horse thieves are all skilled in martial arts and equipped with excellent equipment!
The number is far greater than today's Eagle Army!
The screams and groans in the packhorse city wall became more frequent, and the smell of blood gradually became stronger. The spilled blood condensed into masses of blood-colored mist in the cold air.
Large tracts of scarlet bloomed under the city wall made of pack horses, like a lush and swaggering flower bush, growing at a scalp-numbing speed.
Death is its nourishment, blood is its veins, and the corpses of people or horses constitute the stamens.
The resistance of the Eagle Army is extremely tenacious.
The tragedy of the vanguard is certainly horrific, but it also inspires the morale and anger of the remaining soldiers. They want to avenge their comrades and survive in this cruel and cold land!
Although they lost their terrain advantage, with tacit cooperation, they still maintained a very high exchange ratio.
The spearmen blocked the enemy and the crossbowmen wounded the enemy, while the sword and shield soldiers guarded the spearmen and crossbowmen.
No matter how brave an individual is, as long as he is not extraordinary, he will not be able to take advantage of precise coordination.
However, even so, the battle line inevitably began to shrink inward.
"Huh, huh..." Gower kept breathing heavily, and the smell of blood almost choked his throat.
But the movements of his hands were still neat. He raised his shield and swung away the oncoming attack. The half-sword in his enchanted hand flashed with blue light. The sword edge passed over the face of the horse thief in front of him and cut off most of his head. Cut off.
Blood spurted out like spring water, and the headless body with only half of its chin fell to the ground with a clang.
At the same time, three spears and two long knives came towards him. Gore took advantage of the situation and rolled back, suddenly feeling that his field of vision was much wider.
At a glance, it turned out that he had rolled out of the packhorse city wall and returned to the center of the military formation.
He is not the first to come back here.
The Eagles who stayed behind were pushed away from the packhorse city wall, and they desperately tried to take back the city wall. The pioneers who had just returned to the formation had already picked up their weapons and joined the battle again as long as they could still move.
Some of the horse thieves had already climbed onto their horses and were shooting into the formation with the riding bows they carried.
"Eagle Army, push them back!" Gower roared, kicked over a horse thief who had just gotten in, and cut off the horse thief's thigh with his sword.
Just as the horse thief was screaming and roaring, two more people got in from below!
"Go to hell!" Gower kicked a scimitar that fell on the ground and shot at the horse thief on the left, and then swung his sword to slash the one on the right.
The horse thief on the left had a machete thrust into his throat, and was struggling in vain on the ground with his hands on his neck.
But the horse thief on the right suddenly raised his left wrist, and a layer of shining fighting spirit covered it, blocking Gower's slashing attack with a clang.
Bright fighting spirit! ?
Although he had known that the attribute of strength had nothing to do with good or evil, seeing the bright fighting spirit appearing on a horse thief still made Gao Er feel stunned for a moment.
The next moment, the horse thief stretched out his right hand, and a short sword wrapped in bright fighting spirit swept towards Gore's ankle.
The horse thief had a sinister smile on his face, and he could almost see the soldier in front of him wailing on the ground after his ankles were cut off.
suddenly!
A long sword wrapped in cyan fighting spirit flew through the air and pinned his forearm firmly to the ground.
The horse thief opened his mouth and let out a cry of pain. Before he could close it, the half-sword of the possessed hand stabbed down his throat and came out from the back of his head!
With thick blood flowing, Gore drew out his weapon, and then pulled out the long sword inserted in the man's arm and handed it aside.
Simon took it easily, and neither of them spoke. They were silent and prepared to continue fighting.
The two of them looked at each other without speaking, silently preparing to enter the next battle.
At this moment, Gore's pupils suddenly tightened, and he pointed at the horse's back not far away: "Simon, get him off!"
Simon turned his head to look, and suddenly fell down. Take a breath of cool air.
A horse thief got on the back of a packhorse. He was bending his bow and arrowing, aiming at none other than Eric, who was sitting motionless on the horse in the center!
The fighting spirit of the storm was activated, wrapping the sword in his hand, and Simon threw it out violently again.
However
It’s too late!
The bow retracted from the full moon, and the kinetic energy was transferred from the bow string to the arrow. The arrow flew through the air, and the arrow rotated to break through the air barrier and landed on Eric.
Ding.
This blow failed to penetrate the enchanted plate armor, but the sound was clearly audible.
The feather arrow and the person who shot the feather arrow fell to the ground almost at the same time.
Goyle and Simon immediately changed their expressions.
Suffer!
Everyone knows that Eric is the commander of the Eagle Army, and any horse thief wants to take his head and take the lead in this battle.
If there is the first, there will be the second and the third.
The arrows left their bows one after another and shot towards Eric. The strength of these arrows was not enough to penetrate Eric's heavy armor, but it was enough to show the fact:
The Eagle Army has exhausted all its means. There is no other response.
Hleti was also clearly aware of this. He raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth and put down his visor.
“Charge!”
Twelve Scorpion Claw Guards lined up and launched a charge under the leadership of Heleti!
The sound of horse hooves immediately attracted the attention of the horse thieves. When they saw the knight in bright yellow armor stepping through the smoke and dust, they suddenly became excited.
“Lord Sand King personally launched the charge!”
“Look at them, they are Scorpion Guards!!”
“We will definitely win!!!”
Screams rang out, making the soldiers of the Eagle Army look paler.
They were already struggling to deal with it, and the arrival of the sand king Heleti gave them unparalleled pressure!
"Simon, go elsewhere to help. I will protect Chief Eric!" Gower immediately ordered.
Now that Heleti has moved, his target can only be Eric. The advantage between the third level and the second level is self-evident.
Now all the morale of the Eagle Army is maintained by Eric alone. If he dies at this time, then the entire Eagle Army will inevitably be destroyed!
Simon also knew the consequences. He picked up a scimitar on the ground and followed Gower: "I'll go too!"
Gower's voice was solemn and solemn: "No, my earth fighting spirit can still be used for defense, but you are just storm fighting spirit, you can't hold him back at all!"
Simon continued to argue: "But..."
No time to continue here In the struggle, Gower increased his tone and his voice was unshakable: "Simon!!"
"Obey the order!!!"
Hearing this sentence, Simon was speechless. If he didn't persist, He just silently gave a military salute to Gore.
At this time, the Scorpion Claw Guards lined up with Heleti as the center.
In the wind and snow, it was like a silver scimitar sweeping across the ground!
But the blade of the scimitar slowly slowed down, and only the bright yellow figure suddenly accelerated.
The spear with a flat end turned into an inverted handle, dragging a line of churning yellow sand on the ground.
This gun is called "Sandstorm" and is golden in color. It was mixed with the third-level mineral "Sand Crystal Amber" when it was made. It is equipped with three enchantments of "quicksand", "empowerment" and "sharpness", and is worth tens of thousands. gold coin.
On the handle of its gun, one foot near the end, are inlaid with three third-order yellow sand magic cores. Just when he was less than fifty meters away from the city wall of the packhorse, the seed of life in Heleti's belly suddenly pumped, and the bright yellow yellow sand fighting energy was poured into the spear "Sandstorm", and it wrapped around the barrel of the gun like liquid crystals, making it buzz. Then it started to vibrate.
At the end, a yellow sand magic core quietly shattered.
Little bits of bright yellow light gathered from the tail of the gun with a whistling and trilling sound, and advanced towards the tip of the gun.
The light expanded and flickered, and when it converged on the tip of the gun, it seemed like the sun rising from the ground.
At this time, Heleti had arrived more than ten meters outside the city wall of the packhorse. He raised his elbow and suddenly waved forward. The bright yellow light group drew a crescent shape and penetrated into the snow-covered ground!
Boom——! ! ! ! !
After a short period of silence, a loud sound exploded like thunder. Starting from where the light fell, the earth cracked open, and layers of yellow sand stirred up waves and rushed forward, one wave after another, sweeping away all the people on the path. Everything is swallowed up!
That is not ordinary gravel. Strengthened by the fighting spirit of the yellow sand, each one is the sharpest razor!
The people and horses trapped inside let out chilling screams. Armor and fur were ground into dust, and then skin, flesh, internal organs, and bones - all were ground to pieces.
Even the yellow sand turned into blood!
When the attack subsided, the battlefield fell into an eerie silence.
Is this... really something human beings can do! ?
The crack extended for tens of meters and stopped less than ten meters in front of Eric.
The widest part is enough for five horses to stand side by side. What is left on the ground is a gravel passage with yellow sand mixed with black flesh. Except for the broken limbs left at the edge, there is no trace of the packhorse city wall. traces of passing.
"The raging waves of the vast sea..." Eugene Ren's expression was filled with excitement and fear, and even his voice was trembling: "...This is the raging waves of the vast sea!!"
With this blow, even he couldn't stop it. Which survived!
And Eugene also knows very well that even if he blocks Heleti's offensive route, the Lord Sand King will never relent!
In this land called "Bloody Highlands", only the coldest and wisest people can be called "Kings"!
Link looked at the sand marks on the ground, completely stunned, and uncontrollable fear began to spread in his heart.
He wasn't afraid of death, but Heleti showed such strength that he couldn't even think of fighting against it!
Such a powerful offensive cannot be stopped by manpower. Even if they all fill in, what will happen?
Fear is contagious.
Similar thoughts spread among the Eagle Army. Like dominoes, morale began to collapse at an unprecedented speed. Some people's weapons had already fallen to the ground!
The Scorpion Claw Guards have stopped, and Heleti is riding forward with a spear, as leisurely as if he is on a wild outing.
Not only the Eagle Army was in a daze, but no one among the horse thieves dared to move at all, for fear of causing the dissatisfaction of Lord Sand King.
The blow just now exceeded all of their imaginations!
But at this moment, there was a sudden tremor from the edge of the sand, and then a man shook off the dust on his body and emerged from it.
His leather armor was as tattered as a beggar's, with barely any good skin on his body. Blood flowed out, covering his body with a layer of sand.
Even on the edge of the "Raging Waves of the Vast Sea", the person who can survive should be at least a first-level extraordinary person, but Heleti doesn't care, he only has Eric in his eyes.
Only this second-level transcendent could barely be considered his opponent.
But what Heleti expected was that the man who finally escaped did not run away. Instead, he picked up an ownerless shield from the side, stepped forward a few steps, and knelt down. He knelt down and held the shield in front of him, blocking the path Heleti must pass!
"Goyle, get out of the way!" Eric finally spoke.
Eric is a second-level transcendent, so he is more aware of the gap between himself and Heleti, and he does not want anyone to make unnecessary sacrifices.
Goyle shook his head and shook off some bloody sand. At this time, his ears were almost bald from the previous blow, and he could only barely hear some sounds.
He knew what Eric was trying to say.
But the more this happens, the less he can retreat.
At this time, someone needs to stand up and tell the soldiers of the Eagle Army that they cannot give up yet!
Keep fighting, keep resisting, even if it means death!
He took a deep breath, blood flowed from his chapped lips, and screamed:
"There are no cowards in the second team!"
Stopping the horse, Heleti finally looked at Gower. The "Sand King" raised his visor and stared at the man in front of him:
"Are you really not afraid of death?"
Goyle spit out blood foam:
"Even if I tell you about the charm of Lord Baron, you still won't understand."
Heleti put down his visor and smiled coldly: "Ah, Lord Baron..."
Then he raised his hand, poured fighting energy into the sandstorm spear, and made another bottom-up slash!
The ground cracked, the snow disappeared, and the sharp "raging waves of the sea" flew in front of Gore in an instant!
Hleti only used less than 30% of his strength, but in his opinion, it was enough to deal with a first-order transcendent.
Gao Er took a deep breath and poured all the fighting energy in his body into the shield. The brown earth fighting energy wrapped around the surface of the shield, welcoming the rolling yellow sand!
Although he was not immediately slashed away, the power of this slash was as endless as quicksand.
"Oh?" Heleti raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not expect that the other party could still use fighting spirit even when he was so seriously injured.
"Ah——!!!!" Gore let out a fierce roar, blood poured out of his mouth and fell on the inside of the shield, and the fighting spirit in his body swelled again!
Everyone stared at Goyle.
Simon is watching, Link is watching, Mosingan is watching, and Eric is watching too.
They all hope that Gao Er can hold on and survive!
Goyle has done enough!
Not only them, the horse thieves also watched this scene in silence, even Eugene couldn't take his eyes away.
His pupils could not stop trembling, and he clenched his fists tightly.
Before this, he had never seen any first-order extraordinary being able to persist in front of Lord Sand King for such a long time!
Could it be...that he could really survive this blow?
Goyle did not have time to think so much. He only had one thought in his mind now:
Hold on, hold on!
Delay and buy more time for the Baron! ! !
The tremor in the hand is getting stronger and stronger. It is the sound of the raging waves of the vast sea gradually breaking through the protection of the earth's fighting spirit and starting to chip away at the shield itself.
And Gore's fighting spirit has been exhausted!
"Ah——"
A beast-like roar burst out from Gore's throat, frantically squeezing the last bit of fighting spirit in his body, and the seed of power in his lower abdomen was as weak as the wind The remaining candle in the middle.
But he is still asking for and squeezing!
Until——
broken!
The seed of power jumped suddenly, bursting into pieces, and the last bit of fighting spirit poured into the shield along Gower's arm. Under the burst of light, the last bit of power of the raging sea was finally eliminated!
The yellow sand disappeared.
The path stops in front of Goyle.
However, Gore also stopped breathing at this moment, with a ferocious look of unwillingness on his face.
His body was still standing there, covered with yellow sand, like a statue that had stood here since ancient times.
"Goyle!!"
Link clenched his fists and shouted loudly. At this moment, he deeply blamed himself for his previous wavering, and regretted even more why he did not dare to accompany this man. Friends of more than ten years died together.
His eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and the eyes he looked at Heleti were filled with murderous intent!
It’s not just Link.
The breathing of Simon, Mosingan, and the Eagle Army soldiers began to become heavy. Their fear gradually faded away, and they became more high-spirited to fight.
The soldiers who had lost their weapons held them firmly in their hands. Some began to tear their clothes, imitating Vesdon's example, and wrapped their weapons around their hands.
Feeling the change in the surrounding atmosphere, Heleti's face was as gloomy as ink. He couldn't figure out what kind of magic power that Raven had in him. From an ordinary soldier to a first-level extraordinary, one or two of them were willing to do it. He is going to die!
If you can’t figure it out, don’t think about it.
If you are willing to die, then all of them will die! !
"Kill me -"
With a roar, Heleti tightened the reins, lowered his head on the horse and ran and charged. He immediately knocked Gower's blood-covered body to the ground and trampled it. And passed.
Even so, Gower's arms were still raised high.
The melee begins again!
Eric's breathing suddenly became heavy.
War always kills people.
But when he saw Goyle fighting to death in front of him without even being able to save his body, Eric's heart still ignited uncontrollable rage.
He raised his shield and roared:
"Eagle Army!!"
"Fight——!!!"
At the same time, three bright fireworks exploded in the direction of the Scorpion Nest!
