Chapter 1794: The Fall of the Upper City
Time goes back.
Midgart Kingdom, Hoarfrost, Lower City.
Ugh...ah...
The terrifying 'Earl' opened its arms and made a painful sound. A huge wound was opened on its back by Fried, and flames spewed out. The sky burned its skinless body, and flames spewed out uncontrollably from its empty eyes, mouth and nose, and tongues of fire spread and danced around it.
Freed, wearing a burnt cloak, stood fifty meters away from its feet, holding the rough and heavy 'Boiling Demon's Iron' on the ground with one hand. He raised his head and looked at the wailing monster, and the glory on his body gradually faded under the heat wave. The flames coming out of the monster's body became more and more intense, becoming more and more out of control. Finally, a large fire cloud spurted out from the huge body, and a "whoosh" sound flashed under the night sky, like brilliant fireworks. Return to darkness.
The temperature in the air gradually dropped. Beric fell from the dragon's back and walked to Fried's side. He saw that the armor on his body had been melted and turned into metal lumps that had not completely solidified. , steaming: "Marshal, are you okay?"
"I'm a little injured, but I'm fine." Fried stuck the sword in his hand on the ground. A high-level warrior armor is basically useless. Warriors' armor is usually a little different. Unlike knights who value protection, they also require the air pressure to be released outwards without affecting the body's concentration. Therefore, the protective capabilities and temperature resistance are inferior to knight-type armors.
The dead 'Earl' was burned by the flames. Noda's body turned into a pile of black ashes and piled on the ground. Fried tore off the metal blocks stuck to his body and removed the severely damaged body. The armor was thrown to the ground like scrap iron, and the soft armor lining was simmered into charcoal ash, revealing a body of strong muscles. During the battle, he was protected by Haki's isolation. The burns on his body were not so severe that he could no longer fight. Only a burnt area on his left shoulder was the most serious.
Beric handed him a full pitcher of water. Fried finished the drink in one gulp and said: "The problem here has been solved. It's time to take over Hoarfrost City. Deputy Marshal, you have spent so many days and stay behind to prevent any further accidents. I will end the battle on the front line." ”
On the surface, Berwick appeared to be fine, but in fact his physical energy had been drained and he needed a long period of rest and recovery. In the past half hour, due to Fried's timely appearance and the attraction of the Holy Flame Golden Dragon, the 'Earl' did not cause much damage to the rear of Wang Quan Xianjun. The casualties could not be counted. Berwick estimated There won't be too many at once. What's more troublesome is that many military tents and camps set up in the wild were destroyed, and a lot of food and supplies were also destroyed. But the pain is not unbearable.
The strongest and longest-lasting frost shield on the first layer melted, the frost monument tower on the palace lit up with countless snow-blue curse lights, and Midgard's city shield was activated. Second layer of frost shield. The Queen hopes to maintain this state of internal and external isolation, and hopes that Rachel will counterattack as soon as possible and eliminate the people in the city first. But she didn't expect that the monster released from the little magic bottle would die so quickly. The monster her ancestors called very scary had completely different concepts in the eyes of different people. Perhaps, without Berwick's experience and Fried's strength, it would really cause unimaginable disasters for the King Quan First Army.
The queen's face was very ugly. No monarch would have a good face at the moment of his country's survival: "The future of Midgard is tonight, may the gods protect it."
< br>Outside the frost shield, Fried, who came from afar, saw his generals directing his soldiers to violently attack the frost shield. He couldn't help but frown: "What did you do to these guys!" He quickly fell into the trap. In the army formation, the soldiers cheered when they saw the vanguard general arriving.
The officer commanding this unit hurried over to report the situation to the Generalissimo. Fried immediately warned him: "Tell your troops to stop attacking immediately. In addition, call a few messengers to convey my military orders. , all external troops will stop attacking and wait outside the frost shield to enter the city together."
The officer didn't know why, thinking that it was because the shield was there that he was anxious to break it. However, he did not dare to doubt the marshal's order, so he immediately conveyed the order and then sent messengers to inform the commanders of each team.
Ten minutes later, the attacks by various troops gradually subsided. At this time, the large army saw that the frost shield, which had lost the fierce external attack, was rapidly melting and dissolving, and they couldn't help but be extremely surprised. Only then did we know that the stronger the attack on the frost shield, the more it will be supported by the endless power of the main body of the formation. Once the external attack is eliminated, the center of the formation will no longer supply the magic power to support the frost shield, and it will automatically Dissolve.
Fried is a veteran in the army. He was familiar with various war-related books in St. Vicoia. He remembered very clearly the weakness of the ancient city's protective shield that he had never seen before.
The frost shield melted very quickly, and in just ten minutes it was so thin that the magic flash inside the frost shield could be seen. Freed climbed onto the wall in one fell swoop, his fist filled with domineering force, and he punched the fragile ice shell with a bang, causing the frost shield to shatter on the spot.
"Soldiers, attack~!!!" As soon as the frost shield broke, the commanders of the various armies shouted immediately, and the horns of attack resounded throughout the canyon. In an instant, the soldiers lined up outside the shield poured into Baishuang Upper City, and the end of this battle was about to begin.
"How could this happen!" Queen Midgard's face turned from livid to pale. When she saw the broken pieces, while the ice shards were falling one after another, a light like a morning star came over the royal city, shining down on everyone.
Jean Recher's mood, like his physical fitness, hit rock bottom: "Kia Fried! This... is impossible..."
Fried's volley belt With an unruly and somewhat joking chuckle, his voice could be heard in all directions: "Weak people, why resist? Become a strong one." The cornerstone under your feet or the spoils in the hands of the winner? You still have a chance to choose, but there is not much time left."
"Is this the general of Saint Bikoya? ? ” General Hushan withdrew from the battle and began to evacuate when he saw that the situation was not right. He knew that once the frost shield was broken, the battle would be lost. The army entered the city, and then the third layer of frost shield was about to come down, but it didn't mean much anymore.
The queen fled to the heights of the palace under the protection of eighteen guards. She kept looking back at the chaos below the city, feeling sad in her heart: "Why is this happening? Why do I work hard to govern the country and strive to survive in various countries, but I end up in the wrong place?" Such an end? I don’t think I am a monarch with no achievements, let alone a greedy and foolish leader. I have dedicated my life to this country, and I have no marriage or love. Do you dare to ask for it, but in the end you will become a king of subjugation? "
At this time, the queen hoped that the fourth black dragon would appear in front of her. She didn't know when she started to realize that she had a crush on this person. Somewhat relying on psychology, perhaps it was because of the arrival of this person that Midgard had hope to persevere, and it was also because of this person that she chose to persevere in the end at the moment of decision.
Suddenly, a strange yet familiar figure appeared in front. It's the fourth black dragon!
When she saw this person, Queen Midgard almost shouted out the name. She stepped forward quickly: "God bless you, you are still here and have not left!"
The fourth black dragon still wore sunglasses. He could see that Her Majesty the Queen was like a frightened and injured bird at this moment, urgently needing to soothe her panicked heart. There was a bit of a smile on Heilong's face, and smiles can often calm people's hearts more than words.
Sure enough, the queen's mentality calmed down a lot, and her excited tone also became gentle: "Now the whole city is out of control, and I can't do anything. Fourth black dragon, please tell me, can my country still exist?" She said She was almost begging for a positive answer. No matter how unrealistic the answer was, she was willing to believe it, as long as the person in front of her was willing to tell her so.
The fourth black dragon's smile was still there, and he said: "Please don't forget what I said about accidents and luck."
The queen remembered what he said in the conference room: "You are Talk about Prisoner’s Gate?”
< br> "Yes, I said that the Prisoners' Gate will not come here to cause trouble for themselves. They will appear here and help me. They must want to cause trouble for those 'pirates' Trouble." The fourth black dragon affirmed: "There must be enmity between them."
"But..." The queen looked back at the situation below the palace: "Now the enemy has completely invaded, and the remaining defenders in the city have been completely defeated. I'm afraid there won't be any more In half an hour, they will be able to completely occupy this place, I...I..." Queen Midgard was about to cry, tears welling up in her eyes. It was hard for her to believe that within half an hour, those so-called ethereal people would The villains will come here to help her.
The fourth black dragon suddenly said seriously: "Before I came here, I actually had some understanding of your Majesty's management of the country. Do you think you are a qualified monarch? Do you think you are worthy of this land? The people on the land?"
The queen was stunned for a moment and asked: "What do you mean? "
The fourth black dragon said: "If you have a clear conscience for what you have done as a monarch, then you should believe that in front of this wall of heroes, those ancestors who have fought bloody battles for this country will Bless you."
The Queen once again saw the wall of heroes not far ahead, and was stunned. Although there are some spots on it, the blood shed by our ancestors is still on this land.
The sound of attacks below came from far to near, and were already approaching the palace. The Queen's guard said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the enemy is about to attack, and we cannot stay here for long."
The queen's thoughts were brought back to reality from afar. The danger was imminent. She smiled bitterly at the fourth black dragon and said: "I also believe in the blessings of the gods, but begging for the blessings of the gods at this time is really... it is a bit ridiculous. Is it my country? Is the last hope only in prayer?"< br>
"Good people are rewarded, right?" The fourth black dragon said casually: "Maybe you should really pray. Not to the gods, but to those who have dedicated their blood and even sacrifices to this land. A person of life." After saying this, he turned around and left without waiting for the queen to say anything.
The Queen of Midgard really couldn't understand the man in front of her. Sometimes he was serious and calm, but when he needed to make decisions, he said ridiculous things.
