Chapter 289 Final victory, settlement!
As Thomas watched from a distance, the body of the "Scorching Sky Dragon" began to crack and turn into ashes inch by inch.
"What is going on..." Thomas murmured in a low voice while confused, "That Dragon Hunter...is a traitor?"
"He was summoned by Babylon. 'Devil', but he is one of his own? "
"... His fight with the chief priest, Luo Xiu Carlos, was staged for Babylon to see? "
"Huh?"
"..."
...
Not only Thomas was confused, but Barberon, who was watching the battle from a distance, said in "Dragon Hunter Knight" "When he cut off the head of Fentian Jielong, a constipated expression appeared on his face as if he had been hit hard.
"Scorching Sky Dragon" - that was originally a trump card of Babelun's "natural disaster" level. This demon doll made from the corpse of an ancient dragon is extremely difficult to kill, no matter how it is attacked. Multiple injuries, as long as there is any head on its neck, it can recover from the injuries at a terrifying regeneration speed.
There is only one way to kill it - cut off both of its heads at the same time!
This is the secret of the "Scorching Sky Dragon", and it is also the confidence that Babylon relies on to fight against Luo Xiu Carlos.
Originally, he was very confident. It would be difficult for Luo Xiu to find the opportunity to cut off the two heads of the "Scorching Sky Dragon" at the same time. However, under the attack of the "Dragon Hunter Knight", either Luo Xiu would escape from the battlefield. , or only the ending of being killed by a dragon or a knight.
The result - the "Dragon Hunter" betrayed! At that moment...she betrayed him in front of him!
When he saw this scene, Babelun's brain suddenly shut down. Before he could understand what happened, he saw the "Dragon Hunter Knight" had boarded the body of the Burning Sky Dragon. Chest position.
Just where the dragon hunting knight landed, in the body of the dragon that gradually collapsed, another huge, red heart was revealed.
Without any hesitation, the dragon-hunting knight clenched the long knife with both hands and stabbed it toward the heart below!
——Poof! A dull sound came out, and as the scarlet air waves dispersed one after another, the dragon hunting knight's aura suddenly rose!
He is a "Dragon Hunting Knight" - his power can be greatly improved through "Dragon Hunting", and the golem made from the remains of the ancient dragon picked up by Barberun is naturally also " "Dragon Hunter" within the scope of hunting.
Suddenly, Babelun suddenly felt his brain twitching. It felt like his nerves were broken. He realized that he was spiritually connected to the "Scorching Sky Dragon" and the "Dragon Hunting Knight". Disappeared in a moment.
——He can no longer sense the breath of the two "natural disaster demon dolls" he just summoned!
The "Dragon Hunter Knight" completely killed the dragon, and with his newly acquired surging power, he completely cut off the connection with Babylon!
Baberun panicked and took out the magic crystal that originally sealed the "Dragon Hunter" and poured spirituality into it, but did not get any resonance from it.
This made Babylon finally accept the reality in despair -
The "Dragon Hunter", he has completely escaped Babylon's control! After piercing the heart of the giant dragon with his dragon-hunting sword, he fled the battlefield at an extremely fast speed, and his figure immediately disappeared from Babylon's sight!
Baberan looked at the scene in front of him with angina. He suddenly felt a heat rushing to his head. Along with the severe pain that seemed to crack his skull, his eyes quickly became bloodshot.
Cerebral hemorrhage...
This time it was really a cerebral hemorrhage...
In just a few minutes, he lost two bottles of "natural disaster" magic Oops... this was a pretty heavy loss for Babram, and he didn't even understand the reason behind it all!
Just as Babron was staring at the direction in which the "Dragon Hunter" was escaping with a ferocious expression, he suddenly felt that another unkind gaze was looking at him.
That was the gaze from the other side of the battlefield, and the source of that gaze was Luo Xiu Carlos!
He has already mounted the "Golden Pegasus", waving the sickle with the golden light attached to it, galloping towards the sky, rushing towards Babelun's position!
"..." Feeling that the threat was approaching, Babelun had no time to think about the losses. He looked around, and the battle situation had fallen into irreversible decline.
"Executioner" Koros had been seriously injured by Hubert and retreated first. After Koros retreated, the "Executioner" who originally led the army was also besieged by the extraordinary people in Red Maple City. He was killed in battle, and the defeat of the Dark Army was a foregone conclusion.
And Koros, who had escaped from Hubert's war hammer, had also issued an order for the entire army to retreat from the rear——
Looking at Rossiu Carlos's reaction As the silhouette became clearer, the expression on Bablon's face changed for a while, and finally he took out a corroded whistle and blew it.
Beep--an illusory fog door appeared next to Babelun, and a mixture of black and white light flowed in the center of the fog door.
Baberun looked at Luo Xiu and said in a voice that only he could hear:
"...I admit that Luo Xiu Carlos of Red Maple City, this time Your perfect victory.”
“I would have never imagined that you could be promoted to ‘Saint’ in such a short period of time, and I don’t even know what means you used to make my devil. Out of my control..."
"Shame, this will definitely be a shame and a stain for my whole life..."
"However, this is not the end, Luo Xiu Carlos..."
"I will definitely Will come back again... When the time comes, I will take... your life with my own hands..."
"..."
Baberon's last voice became illusory and ethereal. When Luo Xiu was riding the Golden Pegasus and was only a hundred meters away from Babelun, Babelun had already stepped into the fog gate and disappeared without a trace.
The fog door closed quickly. When Luo Xiu chased him here, only the remains of a demon doll were left.
…
“Huh…”
Standing in front of the place where the Bablon Fog Gate disappeared, Luo Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief.
He was still a step late, but this was what he expected.
Now, "Executioner" Koros was seriously injured by Hubert and fled, and Babron also saw that the situation was not good and chose to retreat. At this time, the Dark Army has become completely leaderless.
After the leaders of the two enemy armies were defeated, the morale of the Red Maple City army suddenly increased sharply, and they split the gradually disintegrating Dark Army into several broken battle groups.
Except for the commanders of the Dark Army who were near the rear of the battlefield, they received Koros’s final order in time and were able to safely lead the army to retreat, almost half of the Dark Army has been deeply surrounded by the Red Maple City army. , they had lost their will to fight, and only a few of them were still resisting, but they were quickly annihilated.
Luo Xiu then went to meet Hubert, and together with Hubert, they defeated several "Fourth Fate" leaders or leaders who were still resisting one by one. The knights in the side court took advantage of the situation to move the battle line. Pulled to the edge, completing the final closing and encirclement.
After that, it was a dumpling-style massacre - in addition to the more than 30,000 dark troops who successfully evacuated, the more than 70,000 dark troops trapped in the battlefield were gradually eaten away.
Half of them became prisoners, while the other half were killed because of their stubborn resistance. The corpses have been piled up into hills on the battlefield, and the blood has accumulated into rivers, rolling along the cracks.
...This large-scale war lasted until sunset.
Until there were no more stubborn enemies left on the battlefield, Lord Nelson, the commander-in-chief, ordered the withdrawal of troops and counted the results and battle losses.
The knights of the side court have led the logistics army to clean up the battlefield, the clergy of the church have begun to treat the wounded, and the warlocks of the Tablet Court have gone to recover the loot. Before they calculated the final result of this war, Luo Xiu and Hubert had returned to the city wall.
Looking at the messy battlefield below, Hubert said with some regret:
"...It's a pity that Koros escaped."
"If we keep fighting, I will definitely kill him. He, but he still escaped... I had no way to restrict his escape, and I gave him a chance to recover in vain."
"It doesn't matter, Lord Hubert." Luo Xiuyao. He shook his head and comforted him.
"Koros has been seriously injured. He will not and will not dare to make new moves for at least some time. And two-thirds of his army has been annihilated by us. He has temporarily lost us. Threat."
"As for their other 'holy' - 'Hidden Elder' Babelun, he lost two bottles of 'natural disaster' golems in this war, and Without such a powerful weapon, Babron poses even less of a threat to us than the seriously injured Koros."
"We can rest and recuperate for the time being, in fact, in my opinion. , we'd better pursue the victory immediately and annihilate the remaining troops of the Dark Army in one fell swoop, but this depends on the decision of the [Supreme] side."
"..."
"...Hmm. You're right, Luo Xiu." Hubert nodded, his frown relaxing a little.
“No matter what, this is a great victory. Let’s wait until Lord Nelson and Judge Baines finish counting the results and losses and then see what the next step is.”
< br>
"I'll go find Baines and talk to him about what's going to happen next. Luo Xiu, just stay here for now. I'll feel more at ease if you pay attention to abnormalities on the battlefield."
After that, Xiu Bert then turned around and left, walking down the stone stairs of the city wall.
And Luo Xiu stood between the battlements of the city wall and looked out, at the same time spreading out his senses to catch any fish that slipped through the net of high-ranking extraordinary beings.
While performing his duties, Luo Xiu was also thinking about other things in his heart.
——This is indeed an undisputed victory. Although it failed to kill Koros and Babylon, from another perspective, keeping them has other uses.
Koros, who was seriously injured, could not run far. In fact, Luo Xiu had already let the shadow of the "Shadow Raven" possess him, and he knew Koros's real-time location.
As long as Koros does not exceed a certain range, it is very simple to chase him. Luo Xiu is quite patient about this.
Besides that, there is another thing that everyone is happy about -
Complete two tasks - the settlement of [Death Catastrophe] and [Forbidden Ghost]!
Until the war in front of him is completely over, Luo Xiu has free time and can fully concentrate on thinking about settlement options.
His thoughts moved slightly, and the task panel appeared.
