Lorist walked down the small lonely mountain in disgrace, the clothes on his body were covered with mud and were a little tattered, even the short cloak that was draped behind his back was almost in two, hanging behind him like two sides small banner.
"Your Highness!"
"teacher… "
Facing the surprised and excited gazes and uncontrollable smiles of the two disciples Reddy and Genorio who came forward, as well as the shouts of joy from the heart, Lorist suddenly felt himself There was a little uneasiness in his conscience, as if he had done something wrong. But thinking about what the old Storm Swordsman said, why should we two Swordsmen fight to the death for those businessmen? There is no life-and-death enmity, so Lorist felt calm again.
The words are not rough, the lazy old man is right, since the Norton family has won the victory, naturally Lorist doesn't need to rush back to the battlefield, and the Storm Sword Master doesn't need to pester Loris either. It is best for everyone to think that peace is the most important thing if there is a big fight. Besides, after this duel, the Storm Juggernaut won the Duchy of Ganglinia from the Business Alliance as his own territory, and he will stay in the southern part of the mainland. If there are any contradictions, maybe we can still be friends.
The only thing that made Lorist regret it was that he shouldn't have agreed to the old man to help him arrange the scene of the Juggernaut duel, that would be more tiring than a fight with the old man. Seeing the old man skillfully arrange a sword there, and cut half a stone here, this skillful deceitful ability made Lorist involuntarily wonder whether the several sword master battles recorded in the history of the mainland were all like his own. The same as the second time, in fact, two sword masters got together to chat and fart, and finally slapped their buttocks and left, leaving a messy scene for future generations to look up to...
What annoyed Lorist the most was that after finally setting up the scene of the so-called sword master duel, the old man of the Storm Sword Master even proposed to dress up his clothes, and said plausibly that the scene of our two sword master duel would be It can be seen how fierce it is. You can see that such a large rock has been chopped off in half, but when you go down the mountain after the duel, your clothes are clean and spotless. Isn't that suspicious
So the old man took himself as a demonstration first, and cut his clothes into strips of cloth with a sword, which made Lorist have to admire the old man's avant-garde abstract consciousness. Centennial concept. Lorist had no choice but to get some dirt and dust on his body, cut his clothes torn with a sword, and finally cut his bunt cloak in half, and then he went down with a feeling of shame. up the mountain.
Reddy and Genorio rushed over excitedly, looked Lorist up and down, and after making sure that Lorist was intact and not injured, they breathed a sigh of relief: "Teacher, you won?"
Earl Boled next to him was pale and trembling all over. It was obvious that his teacher Storm Swordsman and Lorist went up the mountain to duel. After half a day, Lorist came down the mountain calmly. Although he looked a little embarrassed, his expression It was easy and unscathed. Doesn't this mean that Lorist has won, while his teacher, the Storm Sword Master, has become a loser...
Lorist shook his head: "I didn't lose or win, it was a tie. I didn't want to fight anymore, so I went down the mountain first."
Earl Brad breathed a sigh of relief and asked eagerly: "What about my teacher? Was he injured? Oh, I'm sorry, His Royal Highness Norton, please forgive my presumptuousness, I'm just worried about my teacher..."
Lorist smiled and said: "Your teacher is fine. When I went down the mountain, he was still sitting on the top of the mountain. He said that the duel with me gave him some insight into swordsmanship, so he might have to go down the mountain later. But you can go up now and have a look." gone."
That old man was just pretending to be a criminal. He insisted that Lorist go down the mountain and tell his disciples, and then let his disciples go up the mountain to see for themselves the fierce scene of the duel between him and Lorist. Listen to the old man's review of the battle scene at the moment of life and death, so that the duel between him and Lorist can be passed on and become famous forever.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness Norton." Earl Brad greeted the other two disciples of the Storm Sword Master not far away and rushed straight up the mountain.
"Let's go back." Lorist got on the horse, and Genorio took off his cloak and handed it over. After all, Lorist's current image is a bit bad.
"Teacher, is that Storm Sword Master really strong?" Reddy also got on the horse and followed Lorist, he asked curiously.
"No..." Lorist shook his head with a wry smile and replied, "That old man is too cunning, like a loach, if he just wants to fight, I can't do anything about him."
This is true. At the end of the Juggernaut duel scene on the top of the mountain, Storm Juggernaut and Lorist both showed their respective domains. Although the old Storm Swordsman is lazy and cunning, his fighting spirit is genuine. The range of the wind field is 25 meters, and sand and rocks are flying in the field, and the wind blade is unparalleled. And Lorist's Blood Killing Domain was full of murderous aura, blood red and cold, making people feel chilling and frightening, with a range of nearly fifteen meters. This made the Storm Juggernaut have to admire Lorist's rapid advancement, and thank himself for his wisdom in not confronting Lorist. You must know that the last time the two fought against Lorist's blood-killing area was only about ten meters away, and it has only been more than three years, and it has expanded by another five meters.
However, Lorist learned a lot of common sense in the field of Juggernaut from the old man Storm Juggernaut. The old man said that the strength of the Juggernaut can also be divided into three stages, which can be seen from the coverage of the Juggernaut's domain. In fact, both he and Lorist belonged to the first stage. Although the range of his Gale Domain was nearly ten meters longer than Lorist's Blood Killing Domain, he was still in the first stage of Juggernaut if it was less than 30 meters away.
In the first stage, the range of the field is more than ten meters. In the second stage, the range of the field is more than 30 meters. In the third stage, the range of the field can reach about 50 meters. Several sword masters in the entire Galintia continent, except for the Flying Fire Sword Master of the Qigda Kingdom who can't live in seclusion, are in the third stage, and the two sword masters of the Romon Empire and the Havistan Khanate are also It is in the first stage, no one is much better than anyone else. However, Feihuo Sword Master is said to have lived for more than two hundred and sixty years, and there are not many days left, so he has not shown up for a long time, and no one knows whether he is still alive.
The old man said that the domain of the general Juggernaut is mainly based on the Dou Qi attribute he cultivated, like him is a relatively rare wind attribute, and the Feihuo Juggernaut is named after the fire attribute domain. Entering his domain is like falling into a furnace, with the feeling of burning flames everywhere. The Juggernaut of the Romon Empire is of the wood attribute, and the characteristics of the domain are strangulation of vines and collision of logs. As for the Juggernaut of the Havistan Khanate, his grudge is earth attribute, and the thick defense and quicksand traps characteristic of the domain are extremely difficult to deal with.
At the end of the review, the old man Storm Sword Master honestly admitted that the weirdest thing was Lorist's Blood Killing Domain. He said that when sparring with other sword masters, even if the domains overlap, it will not be like Lorist's blood killing domain, as if falling into a cauldron of porridge, and both offense and defense have become slow movements. The speed of overlap with other Juggernaut domains is still the same, but the characteristics of the domains interfere with each other, which is more risky for both parties. And overlapping with Lorist's domain is like a big mountain on his body, and he can't get up anytime soon, which makes people suffocated. This is also a factor that he doesn't want to confront Lorist again. Try it again.
The closer you are to the city of Bruvia, the more routs armed by the Business Alliance you will encounter. Apart from sending away some unsightly little characters who want to rob the three-man warhorse, Lorist doesn't want to embarrass those running around of minions. On this point, he had to admit that he had accepted some of the views of the old man, the Storm Sword Master. As a sword master, he should have his own reserve, and made it difficult for these soldiers to lose their status as a sword master. He is a mortal or something, he just doesn't take most people seriously, he probably regards himself as a god.
Now Lorist understood the arrogance and arrogance of the old man when he hijacked the Second Highness and the nobles of the kingdom. The old man was used to being praised and had eyes on top of his head. If he is not a sword master, the old man will also dismiss him. To the old man, the sword master and below are all mortals and ants, and there is no difference at all. Only when he became a sword master, would the old man treat each other with courtesy and regard them as the same kind. So he can laugh and play tricks in front of him without any worries, and discuss with him how to deceive people...
Forget it, there is no need to argue with the old man. This time he fulfilled his wish, and then he will go to the business alliance to ask for the Principality of Ganglinia as a territory, and it will be difficult for him to have any intersection with him in the future. As for the business alliance, Lorist could only hold deep sympathy. Not only did he suffer a disastrous defeat on the battlefield, but it is obvious that the Storm Sword Master is no longer prepared to deal with these merchants after he took the Principality of Ganglinia from them. It is hard to say whether he will accept their offerings, depending on the old man The territory should be prepared to be self-contained. I believe that no one is willing to attack the territory of a Juggernaut, because that is almost preparing to form an endless life and death enmity with the Juggernaut.
A group of soldiers from the Guards led a group of soldiers from the City Defense Corps of the Freedom Alliance to pursue the defeated soldiers of the Commercial Alliance. When they found the three of Lorist, they excitedly raised their weapons and shouted "Wan Sheng!" Soon, the cheers sounded continuously on the battlefield, and several Norton family knights rushed over. Lorist waved them to carry out the task first, instead of escorting him, anyway, he would arrive in Budapest soon. Ruvia is gone.
Fatty Shi received the report and Ledos, the first executive officer of the Freedom Alliance, greeted Lorist at the gate of the city. As for the others, they all led their troops to capture the prisoners. The Liberty Alliance has decided to gradually develop and renovate the barren Krystal Hills in the next ten years, and invest one to two million goldfords in this reconstruction project every year. At present, there is a lack of a lot of cheap or free labor. So now is a great opportunity.
Since Lorist was able to return from the Juggernaut duel intact, it at least meant that he didn't suffer. After getting the answer of a tie, Fatty Shi didn't care about it, and instead introduced the process of winning the battle to Lorist. As a witness who witnessed this war from beginning to end, if everyone had no confidence in his swordsmanship and insisted on letting him stay behind, Fatty Shi might also have enthusiastically held his sword and rode his horse to chase the enemy.
In Fatty Shi's narration, the commercial alliance armed forces sounded the horn of attack less than a quarter of an hour after Lorist took Reddy and Genorio to Xiaogushan for the swordsman duel. Everyone was very surprised by the commercial alliance. Why is the armed forces so impatient. The commercial alliance armed with a thousand-man formation showed its huge force. The countless thousand-man square covered the plain in the entire field of vision, bringing great power to the Norton family's armed forces, the White Lion Legion and several city defense regiments of the Freedom Alliance. Even under the pressure of the city defense corps, dozens of deserters appeared.
The first to attack was the so-called Vengeance Legion in the armed forces of the Commercial Alliance. The soldiers of this legion were all residents of the inner city of Morente City. They were composed of surrendered city defense forces and some crew members of the Armada. The family changed ways to squeeze out their savings and personal property, so they were full of hatred for the Norton family, willing to be cannon fodder to launch a tentative attack and fight to the death.
The giant wooden shield cart they pushed forward effectively resisted the attack of the steel crossbow of the chariot. At the same time, this kind of giant wooden shield cart also blocked the attack of the catapult two hundred meters away. what effect. It wasn't until about 150 meters away that a stone weighing nearly a hundred catties fell over and caused certain casualties to the enemy. In this way, the soldiers of the Vengeance Legion approached the Norton family's battle formation pushing the giant wooden shield cart, and launched a short-term rapid assault. They had a hand-to-hand battle with the first few battle formations of the Norton family, but they were all defeated.
Perhaps the Vengeance Legion's successful assault on the Norton family's armed battle formation encouraged the top management of the commercial alliance's armed forces, and they directly invested half of their troops. The phalanx of more than a hundred thousand people then launched a fierce attack on the battlefield that lasted more than ten miles. Under the cover of the densely packed giant wooden shield vehicles on the battlefield, they quickly approached the defense line armed by the Norton family. At the same time, hundreds of long-arm lever trebuchets were rolled out from behind the phalanx, slowly moving forward.
The commanders armed by the Norton family didn't pay much attention to the trebuchets of these business alliances, thinking that the effective range of the trebuchets was the same as other trebuchets, only a throwing distance of two to three hundred meters. But unexpectedly, dozens of trebuchets stopped advancing 400 meters away, and threw a batch of stones weighing about 50 catties at the Norton family's armed battle formation, causing countless casualties to the unsuspecting Norton family's armed forces. Hundreds of casualties almost caused the battle formation to collapse.
Lord Ovekis, who commanded the catapult, had to order the catapult to turn its target to these long-armed lever-type catapults armed by the Business Alliance, and launched a confrontation with them. But the abominable thing is that these trebuchets armed by the business alliance are covered by giant wooden shield carts. Throwing stones of forty or fifty catties in the past is often useless. Unless they hit these trebuchets, they have no effect.
So Schwader ordered Master Ovekis to use explosives as throwing objects, and at the same time ordered more than 600 bronze cannons of the three artillery battalions to load shotguns and prepare for firing. At that time, the assault force armed by the Business Alliance was less than 100 meters away from the battle formation armed by the Norton family, and was about to launch a general attack soon, intending to crush the Norton family battle formation in front of them in one fell swoop.
When the more than 100,000 elites armed by the Business Alliance launched a general assault on the ten-mile-long front, what awaited them was bursts of artillery thunder and countless iron bullets that blocked the entire charge space. Human tragedy. The enemies in front of the Norton family's armed battle were almost wiped out, and the corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowed into rivers. Whether it was the survivors armed by the business alliance or the soldiers armed by the Norton family, many of them were vomited on the spot by the cruel scene in front of them. stand up…
At this time, the explosive package thrown by the catapult also exploded in the phalanx behind the enemy. It is broken and broken. The commercial alliance armed forces never dreamed that the Norton family would have such a hand. The remaining phalanx on the battlefield collapsed directly, and even the phalanx behind that did not enter the battlefield became turbulent.
Tiger Ross and Farea seized this favorable opportunity to blow the horn of attack and led the Flying Tigers and Chasers to outflank from the left and right, while Schwader and Ovekis led the artillery battalion and the catapult battalion directly Press forward to conduct a mobile attack, continue to bombard and throw explosives to the rear camp of the Business Alliance. Terman led the Angry Bear Knights to carry out an assault on the enemy on the frontal battlefield, while El led the Guards, White Lions and several city defense regiments of the Freedom Alliance to slowly press on...
The result is very simple. The commercial alliance armed forces were beaten. Under the continuous and continuous attack and suppression by the Norton family armed forces, the remaining chamber of commerce legions all collapsed, running around and fleeing unorganized, while the Norton family armed forces invested In the activities of capturing captives and chasing down enemy troops happily...
