Yilong whipped the horse under him desperately, but the horse only knew how to spin in circles. After a while, its limbs trembled and fell down, making a whining sound from its mouth, but it refused to stand up and run a few steps.
Elon kept yelling, seeing the monsters getting closer and closer in the distance, and felt extremely scared in his heart. damn it! What possessed him so much that he volunteered to deal with this monster? ! If time could go back again, he would rather be laughed at as a coward than say a word!
The surviving soldiers all fled, and he was left far behind alone. Looking at the looming red among the monsters, he knew that it was the deputy who had died tragically just now. He told himself that Xiao Tianjian's son must not die. So ugly!
He jumped off the horse, moved his legs, and ran away in the direction of Xiko with all his strength. After finally following the soldiers, he accidentally looked back, only to find that half of the horse that had been with him for four years had been bitten off by a monster.
His feet were weak, and he just rushed forward based on instinct. Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise from the front, and then the soldiers started to move and turned around. Some turned to the right, and some ran back. He was confused. He stopped, but was knocked to the ground by the rush of people. He cursed angrily, but no one paid him any attention.
Even the soldiers who had been with him were not in the mood to give him a hand. When the real commander of the third column was killed because of his stupidity and cowardice, everyone's expectations for this commander were reduced to the lowest. Some even thought that he died in this war. More worthy of the reputation of that epic hero.
Elon was still cursing and struggled to get up, but froze in place again.
The reason for the movement of the soldiers appeared in his sight. It was a large group of monsters led by another column. Why the hell did they let them encounter it? !
Yilong staggered back and saw several soldiers who had no time to escape being bitten and thrown away by the monsters. He felt that he was almost out of breath. As soon as his feet became weak, he was about to collapse to the ground, but he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him, and then the back of his neck tightened, and a strong force pulled him up. In the blink of an eye, he fell behind a horse. He thanked him weakly, then opened his eyes wide and looked at the familiar face of the man in the red cloak in front of him: "You?! How could..."
Anlong whipped the horse's back and made the horse make a big turn back to its original path. Then he said: "I can't watch you die." He reached out from the quiver and pulled out a few arrows blessed by the monks of light, drew the bow and shot at the monster, killing one in the blink of an eye.
Yilong felt as if he had knocked over a cruet, feeling sour and astringent, but he refused to admit defeat: "Don't think I will admit you because of this."
"I didn't think so either. I just don't want to see Mrs. Mirabell and little Bevin sad. Bevin is a good boy!" An Long admitted without caring about him. He shot a few more arrows. Slightly hindering the progress of Warcraft. Then he rode his horse and ran towards Xiko Town.
As soon as Minte entered the town. He was startled by the swarm of fleeing soldiers. Looking at their panicked steps and some of the people who were trampled by their comrades. He immediately used amplification technique on himself. Shouting loudly: "Do you want to trample yourself to death?! Stop it!"
The soldiers were frightened by the sudden roar. They all stopped. Minte took the opportunity to shout: "The exit is very big. Everyone can escape. Don't panic. Line up and come one by one. Don't trample on each other!"
The soldiers hesitated. But some people recognized Minte's "identity" and some saw the red cloak on him. I mistakenly thought that he was also a column captain. So I did as he said. then. Several local adjutants from the column caught up. He immediately reorganized his soldiers. People evacuated quickly and orderly toward the eastern exit of Xikou. The injured were also helped away by special personnel.
Minte pushed aside the crowd and headed northwest. They met his father and Yilong who had escaped. He hurriedly greeted him: "Are you okay? Are you injured?!"
Anlong saw Minte. But he was shocked: "Why are you here?!" He pulled the reins to stop the horse. The horse flexed its forelimbs. The whole thing fell to his knees. Struggled a few times. The scream was extremely shrill. There was a large bleeding wound on its left hind leg. Obviously he can no longer run.
Minte jumped off the horse to help his father stabilize his mount, staring directly at him: "How could dad do such a dangerous thing without telling me?! Have you forgotten that mom is still waiting for you?! You want to abandon your wife? With my daughter?!”
An Long was startled, guilt welled up in his heart, and he was speechless.
At this time, Yilong couldn't listen to what others were saying. He just looked back in panic and kept urging: "Let's go, they are coming, let's go!" Seeing the two people in front of him just looking at each other, he couldn't bear it. He kept shouting: "What happened today? Is there a big party for illegitimate children?!"
Minte pushed him onto his horse, and he was shocked: "What are you doing?!"
"Shut up!" Minte turned around and pulled his father, "I have killed countless monsters, and I know how to deal with them better than you! Get on your horse and go, I will complete the task for you!"
An Long responded by whipping the horse's butt hard, and the horse rushed out like crazy carrying Yilong, running straight to the east, causing Yilong to scream in surprise.
Minte looked at his father in disbelief: "Are you crazy?!"
"I don't, son." Anlong shook his head calmly, "This is a military order, I can't back down. Originally, I thought that even if something happened to me, you and my mother would be taken care of, but now it seems... we have to work together Fighting." He turned to look at several other companions wearing red cloaks running from the west.
Yilong hugged the horse's neck tightly and ran out of the town quickly. He heard someone next to him shouting: "Get everyone back!" Then the person on the other side ordered "Magician preparation"! In his horrified eyes, the city wall at the exit of the town slowly turned into a thick and hard earth wall. And it rose higher and higher, completely blocking the scene in the town. He only had time to take a last look at the few red figures gathered together.
"What, what are you doing?!" He finally managed to steady his horse, and then grabbed someone to ask. The person replied, "Of course the town is closed, we can't let the monsters escape."
"But there are people inside!" Elon shouted, before the other party could answer. A horn sounded from the nearby hillside, and someone waved a colorful flag. On the nearby podium, Norward and Mallory saw this and ordered: "Archers, prepare!" Then hundreds of archers lined up halfway up the mountainside on both sides. He took aim with his bow and pointed straight into the town. The arrow shone golden under the setting sun.
Yilong guessed their intentions and murmured: "No..." Before he could finish speaking, the first wave of arrows was shot out. Then the archers put on new arrows.
Elon strode to the command podium, ignored the obstruction of others, jumped up and grabbed Mallory's collar: "What do you think you are doing?! There are some of our own people in there!"
Mallory glanced at him sadly: "I know, Your Excellency, but I have no choice. The monsters may have discovered our plan and are planning to retreat. We must stop their departure."
Elon tightened his grip: "You bastard! After taking advantage of our family, do you want to destroy it again?!"
Mallory sighed, sadly but firmly pulling away his hand: "Your Excellency, Earl. I have too many things to consider and cannot take care of a certain family. Please forgive me." Return to the dividing line from the main perspective.
Faith opened the lead box. He quickly took out the magic beads inside with his hand wrapped in a special handkerchief and distributed them to everyone. Except Mint. Everyone wrapped the beads in the same handkerchief and put them in their pockets. Faith even gave an extra one to Minte and smiled at him: "With you here, the chance of success is greater, good job. I knew you would definitely come!"
Anlong said disapprovingly: "Faith, he is still a child!" Vasily smiled and put his arm on his shoulder: "Okay. Old man, this kid has killed several times more monsters than us."
Faith repeated the task again: "We dispersed in all directions, led the monsters into the central area, and then sent a signal to inform people outside that they would activate the magic circle. During this process, the archers would shoot arrows to prevent the monsters from retreating, so Everyone, please do not take off your cloak, that is a mark." After everyone agreed, he softened his expression slightly and solemnly said: "Everyone, it is my honor to work with you."
Almost everyone was moved, hugging each other and saying goodbye, but Minte frowned: "Hey, I think you all seem to have made something wrong. Who said that those who lure our enemies will definitely die?" Seeing everyone Everyone looked at him in surprise, and he said: "We just need to lure the monsters to the central area. This is not a plain but a town. The monsters can't jump high anyway..."
A stranger whispered: "They can jump..."
"Even if they can jump, it still takes time." Minte continued, "As long as we send out the signal, we immediately find a wall or a high-point building to climb up. The magic circle will be one step ahead before the monsters tear us apart. Killed them."
Everyone's eyes lit up. The roars of the monsters kept coming from afar, and Faith made a decision almost immediately: "That's it! Now, take action!"
Everyone immediately dispersed, and Minte hugged his father: "I love you, Dad, we must go back alive."
"You too, my child." Anlong touched his head, looked at him one last time, then turned and left resolutely.
Minte took a deep breath, formed an ice sword in his hand, activated the magic of light, and stepped towards the direction he was responsible for.
Carefully observing the direction in which the arrow rain fell, Minte soon saw the figures of the monsters. From a distance, he saw a companion throwing a magic bead towards them, causing them to rush towards him crazily. Minte quickly threw one out, attracting dozens of them to run towards him. Seeing more and more ferocious monsters than before, he suppressed the fear in his heart, turned around and ran towards the central area.
The monsters behind him ran faster and faster. Stimulated by the aura of the magic beads on his body, they kicked up countless debris and threw them behind him, intending to slow down his pace. He could only avoid those attacks by intuition, and at the same time he had to avoid the arrows falling from the sky. Unexpectedly, he heard two screams coming from the distance. His heart tightened and he increased his speed.
A figure turned out from the intersection in front. Minte recognized it as Vasily's and rushed over calling his name. Vasily pulled him and ran with him, but the two pursuers merged together and were about to catch up. .
As soon as Minte stepped into the central area, he couldn't help but feel excited: "We're here..." A strong force pushed him away. He rolled on the ground twice, got up and looked back, but only saw Vasily being killed by the monster. The tail was rolled up and thrown onto the roof of the house on the roadside. With a loud bang, it stopped moving. There were large pools of blood on the walls and houses.
Minte was horrified: "Vasily!" Seeing a monster jumping up the steps, intending to get close to Vasily, he quickly took out another bead and threw it against the wall next to him, smashing it into pieces.
The monsters became angry, turned around and roared and rushed towards him. He ran away quickly, but felt a huge pain in his back. He was hit by something unknown, and then his whole body flew up, hit the wall in front of him, and then fell heavily on the wall. on the ground.
All the bones in his body seemed to be falling apart. He vomited blood uncomfortably, and suddenly saw a shadow covering him in front of him. He raised his head, and saw a monster walking in front of him and opening its bloody mouth.
(For the sake of breaking the story, there is a little bit less today...)
