Chapter 361: Guest Performance (Part 2)
Storm City's crusade team arrived at the Raven Ridge at nightfall. They followed all the way according to the traces left by the bandits when they left, and locked the other party in this mountain.
At this moment, on a hillside of Moya Ridge, a group of flames can be seen far away. Covey took a few people to touch it, and they found a camp. Hiding in the dense bushes and looking out, there were ten or twenty people gathered in the camp. They talked loudly and drank around the bonfire, and painted some grotesque patterns on their faces, which concealed their appearance and created a mysterious atmosphere.
That is indeed a common method used by bandits to confuse the eyes and ears of the army. As long as these people wipe the pattern off their faces after the fact, it will be difficult to connect them with the gangsters.
"Captain, do you want to do it?" A knight wiped his throat.
Covey shook his head and made a gesture, and they retreated quietly. When leaving, Covey felt something, and looked at an old tree next to him. A snake's tail on the branch quickly retracted, and there was a colorful snake coiled on the branch. Covey looked at the snake, frowned and left.
Beside the bonfire in the camp, Allen took a barbecue handed over by a soldier. Suddenly, an image from Bai appeared in his mind, and in the image was the scene when Ke Wei and the others left. Allen smiled slightly, and made a concealed gesture to tell everyone that the fish had been hooked.
Back at the foothold of the crusade team, Covey ordered: "Rest on the spot, we have confirmed where the rioters' ∷, w▽ww. camp is. Wait until they are asleep before launching an attack, so as to take them down at once."
He added: "The rebels will be shot and killed, but the leader must stay, and Lord Maud will interrogate himself."
The soldier promised.
Time passed little by little, and Covey closed his eyes and fell asleep. At four o'clock in the morning, he opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "Action."
The Thunder Knight next to him immediately got up and woke up the surrounding infantry. After briefly checking their equipment, the crusade team moved towards the camp of Allen and others. Along the way, Covey found a poisonous snake or two from time to time. They were lying in the grass, or curled up on the branches, and a soldier even stepped on a snake's tail during the period. Fortunately, the snake didn't bite, but swam away quickly, otherwise if it caused commotion, it might attract the attention of the other party.
When he came near the camp, Covey found that the other party was not generally careless. There was only one sentry sentry, not to mention that the gangster was very incompetent. He leaned against a tree and seemed to be sleeping soundly. Covey made a gesture, and a knight stepped forward quietly. The knight drew out his sword slowly, and carefully pulled it out from the dark place, so as not to cause the sentinel to react when the moonlight reflected on the blade.
Everything is going well, but when there are still a few steps away from the sentinel. The knight's feet sank, as if he stepped on something soft.
He looked down, and saw a poisonous snake covered in red angrily biting it. It turned out that his iron boots were stepping on the snake. The knight sighed secretly, knowing that there was nothing to be done, so he slashed at the snake's head with his long sword, cutting the poisonous snake into two sections at once.
However, the sound of the long sword breaking through the air finally attracted the attention of the sentry.
The sentry opened his eyes, met the knight face to face, and immediately screamed: "There are enemies!"
"Damn it!" Covey cursed in a low voice, drew his sword and roared, "Rush in!"
At this time, he didn't care about being exposed, and only wanted to resolve the battle as quickly as possible. So the Thunder Knight acted as the vanguard, and the Stormtroopers followed closely behind, forming a surging crowd that quickly crossed the grass and crashed into the camp of the rioters. However, when they entered the camp, they found that the situation was quite different from what they believed. Those bandits didn't rush out of the camp in a hurry, but stood silently with all their weapons. They were so quiet, so cold that it made Covey's heart skip a beat.
He couldn't help shouting: "You are not from Dick, who are you?"
Allen grinned: "It doesn't matter who we are, the important thing is that none of you will leave tonight."
Naturally, it was not Papa Dick who attacked the three small towns including Tours, but a fake gangster played by Allen as a cameo. In doing so, on the one hand, the truth of the cooperation between Maude and Dick will be exposed. No matter whether the citizens believe it or not, they will inevitably have doubts about Maude, thus damaging his prestige and laying the groundwork for the future acceptance of Storm City; on the other hand, It is to increase the pressure on Storm City. The people who have been deprived of food will flood into Storm City in large numbers. In order to create an image of a benevolent lord, Maud naturally has to open a warehouse to release food. But the problem is that a day or two is not a big deal, what about a week or even a month? That, Allen believed, would drive Maud into a hurry.
Once you are in a hurry, you will lose your sense of proportion. And an opponent who loses his composure is no longer scary no matter how powerful he is.
Finally, the most crucial point is to draw Maude's army out of Storm City little by little. Allen only brought the Mountain King and the Dark Blade, just to create the phenomenon that there are not many fake rioters. In this way, Mod will not hesitate at all, and will send troops to crusade. But he couldn't have expected that Alan's fake gangsters were composed of elite fighters.
The whole plan has been deduced many times, including the hidden interest relationship between Maud and Dick, and the layout of Maud's temper provided by Bree and Beto of the Adventurer's Association. The key to making this plan go smoothly is that Moder doesn't believe that the weak City of Sur will take the initiative to provoke. By the time he reacted, everything was a foregone conclusion.
So driven by this plan, the crusade team crashed into one of the traps arranged by Allen.
"It's up to you?" Covey sneered, he calmed down, and told himself that his team had the upper hand, and it wasn't that there was no chance of winning. With a finger of the long sword, Covey shouted: "Kill!"
The crusade team immediately launched an attack.
"Regges, their leader is handed over to you!" Allen yelled, his body soaring, and the engraving of the Liaoyuan Blade lit up on his forehead. Thousands of fires appeared immediately, and Alan thrust into the ground suddenly, and three dark red fire spots appeared in front of the crusade team.
The Knights of Fury Thunder rushed to the front, but when they noticed the flames looming not far ahead, they felt something was wrong, but they couldn't stop their steps. One by one could only grit their teeth and run the source force, fitting into the flames.
Boom boom boom! Three flames shot up from the ground, and the flame pillars formed a straight line, forming a high-temperature line of fire. The thunder knights who crossed the line of fire all screamed, the source force on their bodies offset part of the impact of the flames, but the extremely high temperature flames instantly heated the armor on their bodies. As a result, the knights who were dizzy and bumped by the flames were burned to pieces by the hot iron plates next to their bodies.
Taking advantage of this time, Allen rushed forward. Qian Jun rolled the fire dragon, and his saber was extremely powerful, pulling several angry thunder knights into his attack circle. At the same time, the Dark Blade Warrior also attacked the remaining knights. In a team of two, they first entangled the knight's hands and feet with the chain blade. According to the technique taught by Belmode, after wrapping the target tightly, he sealed the throat with a blow of the poisonous dagger.
It's just that they are still novices after all, and it is inevitable that they will be a little flustered in the first actual combat. Therefore, some Dark Blade warriors wiped the knife at the knight's throat, but because of the knight's resistance or the interference of the scene environment, they could not successfully seal the throat and kill them, and could only create other wounds on the knight. However, the knives were all coated with poison, and the stronger the knight's resistance, the easier it was for the poison to unleash.
While Allen and Darkblade were attacking the Thunder Knights of the crusade team, the warriors of the Mountain King attacked the infantry. The infantry who crossed the line of fire closely behind the knight, while their eyes were still sore from the flames, bumped into the refined iron hammer of the mountain king warrior face to face. These strong fighters were killed with one blow, whether it hit the head or the chest.
Immediately, more than a dozen people were killed by the Stormtroopers.
Seeing this situation, Covey's eyes turned red, wishing he could pounce on and kill those brave warriors holding steel shields and war hammers. However, the sharp sword lights in front of him made it impossible for him to put this idea into practice.
Regis comes and goes like the wind, using the high-speed movement produced by the combination of spin step and sliding step, forming a strong impact. His attacks are very concise, and he often ends up with one blow. But every time he attacked, Regis's iron-slashing long sword made a breathtaking howl like a cannonball piercing through the air.
During the period, Covey tried to stop him and fought with Regis, but he was almost knocked out by Regis' flickering sword light and the long sword left his hand. After that, Covey no longer dared to face the front, but used methods such as evasion and counterattack to fight. However, as Regis' sword momentum unfolded, the flickering sword lights in the field became more and more dense, and the space that Covey could evade gradually narrowed, and the situation became more and more unfavorable for the captain of the crusade team.
Covey's scalp exploded, and he couldn't figure out where these strong men jumped out from. You must know that with Regis's skill, he is already close to the aptitude of the leader of the Knights. At worst, he can be a deputy head of the regiment. However, such a person is actually the subordinate of the silver-haired boy. Covey thought hard, but couldn't guess the identity of the other party.
During the fierce battle, the sword lights that filled the field suddenly disappeared completely. However, Covey didn't feel the pressure lessen, but the atmosphere in the field became more dignified. The Regis man was ten meters away to his left, his body was surging with murderous aura.
Covey knew that the next step would be the opponent's decisive blow. At the moment, he desperately urges the source of luck, and fights for his own life.
When Regis' aura reached its peak, the iron-slashing long sword was passed towards Covey. There was a strong light in Covey's eyes, and before his body had time to react, a flash of light had passed him by.
With a clang, Regis sheathed his sword. Behind him, the flash of light exploded and turned into thousands of auras. Covey's body was lifted into the air by the impacting air waves like a puppet, rolling continuously, spilling a large amount of blood. When it fell to the ground, it seemed to be dead. A huge gap appeared in his chest, but what was really fatal was the sword energy that Regis pressed into his body.
The explosive sword energy tore through Covey's protective source power the moment it entered his body, and shattered his blood vessels and vital organs. Ke Wei still opened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that there is such a fast sword in this world!
