A sparse woodland in the wilderness, a muddy land covered with rotting leaves.
Lord Abetta hid in the mud, covering his body with fallen leaves, trying to hold his breath and calm his mind. He tried to put himself into a deep sleep, so as to reduce the probability of being searched by the prophecy arcane.
Just outside the woods about two hundred meters away, Old Bank held his staff high and was casting a spell. A drop of blood floated on his finger, and the magic power was analyzing the blood to find the location of its owner.
Sophia floats above the head of Old Bank, double the effect of prophecy arcane. The blood drop slowly turned into a cloud of mist, and then condensed into an arrow, pointing out the direction in which Abetta was hiding.
'Jiying' immediately rushed out upon seeing it, and it yelled: "Aha..., poor fellow, I know where you are. I think how many times you can escape?"
The mechanical dragon is too big, its sturdy limbs lifted up the floating soil and fallen leaves of the forest, and its huge size knocked down the big tree trunks along the way.
Abetta could feel the stronger and stronger vibrations coming from the ground while hiding in the mud. He groaned but couldn't sit still, he could only turn a ring on his finger, and his figure disappeared in place.
When Abetta appeared again, he appeared three hundred meters away with smelly mud. The gems on his ring cracked open, and the last chance to escape was exhausted.
"Damn it, why is the guy in the back so difficult? Isn't he just Victor Hugo?"
Abetta clutched the deep wound between her ribs, resisting the pain and continued to flee. He crossed a tall wild grass, walked to a country dirt road, and ran along the road.
"If the man who rides the dragon is really Victor Hugo, I won't be wronged. But he is the dignified city lord, commander of more than 200,000 people, how can he personally embarrass me a little lord?"
Abetta's physical strength dropped quickly, and she was dizzy and couldn't hold it. But he was thinking wildly in his mind, both regretful and angry, and more often did not understand.
According to the nobles' thinking, going deep into the enemy's territory, which is extremely risky, shouldn't be done by the big boss of your own. City Lord Friedman, like the Buche family, would only stay in the city, otherwise there was a change in the city that would not be able to take into account.
It is based on this assumption that Abetta has the guts to take risks. He agreed with the other two lords to join forces and sweep the villages and towns to bring the bad situation back.
But the basic assumption is wrong, and the situation behind is naturally all wrong.
If he died in a vigorous battle, Lord Abetta would also accept his fate. But the five hundred people he brought with him didn't even fight a battle at all, but they were destroyed by endless traps and night fires.
I never expected it.
What I didn't expect was that the terrible dragon that I encountered halfway through, the knight riding this monster was even more versatile and invincible.
Abetta didn't even hold on to a single move. First, there was a mental shock in his mind, and then the ancestral armor was broken by the Adamantite Flying Shuttle. The only thing he can do is to flee in a flash.
The flashing ring was scrapped after three uses, but Abetta was not sure if she had escaped.
His heart beats fast, but his pace is getting slower and slower and his strength is getting weaker and weaker. He knew that the injuries under his ribs were so severe that he would not stop bleeding and would undoubtedly die without treatment.
"That's definitely Victor Hugo himself. Otherwise, how could it be possible to use a piece of fine gold to build a shuttle? It's so extravagant. I'm just a little lord, how can I hit me with such a valuable thing?"
Abetta's brain buzzed, and when she ran, she heard the sound of horses hoofs in front of her. He was shocked, his pace quickened, and he raised his hand and shouted:
"Help, help, I'm Abetta from Banshee Castle, I met Hugo from Coldwind City. The monsters of the Black Forest are right behind me."
A cavalry team really appeared in front of the dirt road, about a dozen people. The leading knight looked at the majesty, and the attendant behind him held a strange banner.
Abetta lost too much blood and vaguely saw a dragon head that breathed fire painted on the flag. This is not the Gorgon flag of the Butcher family, but..., the Frederick family of the Principality of Oss.
Hearing someone calling for help on the road, the cavalry speeded up. The leading knight rushed to Abetta's side and quickly dismounted to hold him.
Abetta's eyes were black and he couldn't see the surrounding situation, but he grabbed the arm of the incoming knight, feeling that he was saved, "Hurry up..., get ready to fight. Victor Hugo is behind. He is riding an earthwalking dragon."
"Victor Hugo? Earthwalking dragon?" The knight who came to aid was very surprised. He looked up to the front of the dirt road. "Is he nearby?"
"I'm Lord Abetta from Banshee Castle, give me treatment soon. My subordinates are not far away. Cure me so I can join the battle."
Abetta used her hand to wipe blood stains with five fingers on the clothes of the knight who came to help. The other party again confirmed that'Victor Hugo' was in front, and immediately prepared the entourage behind him.
Abetta was worried that the number of reinforcements in this group was not enough, and kept urging the other party to quickly find more people. But the knight holding him couldn't ask for more information, so he drew a dagger from his waist and pierced his heart through the gap in the armor.
At the moment before death, Abetta's mind was instantly awake, and her darkened eyes regained their brightness. He saw an old knight with white hair, and he saw himself dying in the other's eyes.
"Why?" Abetta did not squint. He grabbed the opponent's arm and refused to let go, just to ask: "Why kill me?"
The white-haired knight didn't answer, but pushed Abetta away and abandoned his body to the ground.
And before long, there was a rumbling ground vibration on the other side of the dirt road, and a screaming voice could be heard from a long distance away.
"Poor fellow, are you hiding now? The hide-and-seek game has started again. Master Jiying came to you. You hide it for me. I am in a very good mood today. I can play with you a few more times."
The voice was still a hundred meters away at first sight, and when it came to the end, it had reached the front. A big monster head appeared on the dirt road. It had sharp fangs and eyes staring at the flames. It was so big that it squeezed the entire road.
The monster sits on all fours, lying awkwardly on the ground. It ran and twisted its head and tail, and its posture was very funny, but it was not slow at all, as fast as a galloping horse.
As soon as the monster appeared, all the white-haired knights breathed in air. No one had expected such a guy in the wilderness, no wonder Abetta was rushed to escape by the dog jumped over the wall.
This thing is a metal machine, an out-and-out structure. He has great power, strong defense, and he doesn't eat much magic. Really conflict, a dozen knights may not be able to beat it.
Even the white-haired knight in the lead couldn't help taking a step back, thinking about how to deal with it.
But this roaring mechanical monster ran out and stopped when it saw someone on the opposite side of the dirt road. After careful discrimination, it spoke first and shouted in surprise: "Knight Naser, it's a surprise to see you here!"
