Blood tax

Chapter 134 The Desperate Combat Between Sword and Magic

Successful.

Although it was just a hasty execution of the coordinated attack spell arranged by Weitzleben, both Sonia and Berthier's team successfully completed the projection of magic power.

The spell of Iseus allowed them to know the battlefield environment well, and also avoided the mutual interference and repulsion of magic power to the greatest extent.

The other students of Homenworth did not launch an attack directly. Instead, while Lana blocked the gap, they cast several storm positions on the periphery of the battlefield to block the retreat of the rebels.

The three waves of large-scale attack spells led by Professor Weitzleben tore up the rebels who had nowhere to escape.The Extraordinary steel rod Fei Luo who rushed to the front and his accomplices turned into flesh in the blink of an eye.

Even on the tower of the castle, from the corner of his eyes, he could faintly see the broken limbs splashing under the earthen wall, and his ears were filled with the desolate screams of dying.

Those magic science students who are casting spells and watching the battle are concentrating with all their attention.Their perception became sharper and more thorough than ever before, and they suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a bunch of strange objects being swept up by the strong wind, rising and falling outside the window.

"Don't look!" the professor scolded.

However, Berthier and his group companions were still attracted by the weird scene and took a look.

They witnessed the black and red blood storm.There are some round things bouncing around.Numerous curly strips danced wildly in the wind like disgusting bugs.

Among the dancing broken bones, broken intestines, and internal organs, a terrifying and chaotic shadow is outlined, false and real, processed and magnified by the imagination of the brain, and the extreme fear of some kind of unspeakable terrible unknown emerges.

The meticulous and cautious Berthier immediately realized that it was the head cut off by the wind scythe, the stomach and intestines and organs torn from the stomach.However, he was still attracted and shocked by the phantoms outlined by the stumps all over the sky, and his consciousness sank into an unknown realm like a quagmire.

His mind went blank for a while, but he could hear the ethereal and false sound of the dice falling.

Berthier lost his mind for a moment, trembling in extreme panic and indescribable despair, the whole world became gray and worthless.He even lost the meaning of living and ran around the tower with a large group of deranged classmates.

Sonia, who successfully completed a round of freezing storm, also subconsciously cast her eyes on the ground to check her results.

Dozens of frozen corpses shattered in front of her like porcelain dolls, rolling around on the ground with broken bones and shredded meat, and expressions of surprise and fear remained on the rolling heads.

This scene, which she had only heard about in horror stories, stunned her.

"Woo-!"

Severe colic pain came from her chest immediately, Sonia's entire face collapsed, her pale skin was bloodless.After bouts of nausea and intense dizziness, the heart cramps, which she had never experienced before, seemed to tear her apart, accompanied by intense suffocation.

Sonia felt that she was almost dying of pain, clutching her chest and twitching continuously.

Iseus on the side witnessed the horrifying scene in its entirety.

Like an audience sitting in a special seat, he didn't miss any details, and the most shocking and crazy scene in the whole show was directly projected in the depths of his consciousness.

He seemed to hear a strange cracking sound, and then a heavy door slowly opened in his mind.

"hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

The always decent Iseus fell into madness. He scratched his face with his nails and laughed wildly among the messy classmates.

"Really,
"It's so hilarious!

"Hey ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Wetzleben's practical spell lessons suddenly spiral out of control.

His students didn't know how much sanity they lost. They danced like seaweed up and down the tower one by one, laughing wildly, hugging the pillars while telling strange jokes, and banging their heads like woodpeckers. .

"They are heinous rebels, and you have only fulfilled your legal right of self-defense!" Professor Weitzleben shouted, "They are demons who are not protected by the law! Quickly recall your happy memories!"

There was chaos inside and outside the manor. Although the villagers did not witness the scene outside, they were all terrified by the actions of the noble young masters and ladies.

Fiona at the gap saw the hordes of rebels turned into flesh and slag instantly in front of her at close range, blood flakes and shards even flew onto her pretty cheeks.

The girl who was fighting side by side with Lana just now screamed, clutching her chest, and fell backwards from the slope.

"Fiona!" Lana exclaimed, and hurriedly retreated.

……

"Hmph, despicable spellcaster."

On the big raft hundreds of meters away, a tall and burly figure came out at this moment.

Lance appeared.

His eagle-eyed wolf-like eyes swept across the chaotic castle sharply, and his cold eyes locked on the figure of Professor Weitzleben.

"Extraordinary, I found you."

"Bow!"

The armored guards on both sides immediately fetched a strong bow that was as ferocious and weird as the tentacles of zerg. The moment it touched Lance's hands, tentacle-like tentacles popped out from the bow and pierced into his arteries. The pitch-black bow Wriggling to draw blood, it quickly turned from black to a disgusting dark red.

"Where is the Demon-Breaking Arrow!"

The guards presented a dark iron arrow, which was as thick as a spear. The huge arrow beat like a heart, sending out tremors and ripples that made people palpitate.

An illusory ghost in the image of a warrior screamed and wailed beside the black arrow, and was soon swallowed by the arrow again.

"Arrogant wizard, it's really stupid to throw the initiative on useless cannon fodder. Do you really think that no one can punish you?"

Lance bent his bow and nocked his arrow to draw a full circle.He was still not satisfied, so he stabilized his lower body, leaned his upper body back, and pulled the bowstring a little further.

He himself is like a strong bow, pointing directly at the busy figure on the tower.

The bowstring made a loud noise like thunder, and the gleaming iron arrow flew out of the string, aiming at Wetzleben.

A scream came suddenly from 300 meters away, and the shaft of the black arrow was wiped out in flight, leaving only the terrifying spike-like arrow trailing towards it with a bloody trail.

Professor Weitzleben is in the cooldown stage of spellcasting, but he has a protective ornament on his robe, and he has opened a powerful shield early.

The spear-like black arrow first tore through a layer of crystal-like barrier, and then hit the blue magic shield, making an astonishing roar, and a layer of cracked blue light fragments scattered in all directions.

The superhuman's powerful shield was shattered and annihilated on the spot. When Professor Weitzleben heard the whistling sound and turned his head to look at it, his body had already been thrown upside down as if hit by a ballista.

Sonia was suffering from heart cramps, when she suddenly heard a frightening sound of bone cracking and tearing, and then saw blood rushing out of the professor's mouth and chest.There were even pieces of broken internal organs that were spit out together.

"professor!"

The stone walls of the tower crumbled.Professor Weitzleben, who was nailed to the masonry, was broken up to his chest, and the two fragments of his body mixed with mud and broken bricks fell into the tumbling yellow water below.

"Next, it's you." Lance opened his strong bow again, grabbing the incident angle of Lana, who only showed his head.This time he didn't use the weird black arrow, but took an armor-piercing mace arrow to snipe.

Before Lana could react, Fangjian Eternal Patriarch had already let out a fierce humming, and unexpectedly pulled his hand forward to block it.

"Bah!"

The black spiked arrow hit the anti-sword bullet and flew out. Lana was overturned to the ground by the amazing force, and the breastplate hit Fiona's head, knocking her unconscious.

"Go and deal with them!" Lance broke free from the weird black bow full of tentacles, and shouted to the guards around him, "Women and noble young masters stay as much as possible."

After saying this, he also sat down in a weak and decadent manner, and moved his mouth weakly: "Bring the medicinal wine."

"It's better to drink less of that kind of thing," Master Reed advised, "Their superhumans have been sniped, and our armored elite can penetrate their defense lines."

"Not enough," Lance drank a few sips of medicinal wine, his face suddenly flushed abnormally, and his whole body was steaming, just like a leg of lamb just out of the pot, "I'm going to have a rest with them World War I.

"Prepare for a general attack."

……

Twelve heavy infantry in iron armor approached on rafts.

They jumped off the shallow bloody water covered with severed limbs and heads, and their iron boots rumbled across them, approaching the slope.

Wearing double-layer heavy armor, holding large shields, throwing spears and short swords, they moved forward steadily in a rare and rigorous formation.

"Oops, Legionnaire?"

Lana was taken aback, raised his head and shouted:

"Mura, Nona, Kulala, come and help me!"

Twelve armored rebels looked across the gentle slope.They didn't shoot a single shot, they took off their throwing guns and fired a salvo at Lana and Fiona behind them, not caring about their lives at all.

Lana hastily grabbed the Horse-Chopping Sword that fell to the side to resist.The heavy armor-piercing spear hit the blade, making tooth-itching impact and friction sounds.A javelin grazed the blade, pierced the leg greaves, and left a bloody hole in Lanar's calf.

Twelve Armored is not in a hurry.They each took their weapons, formed an arc-shaped defense line, and walked slowly to guard the front and the tower respectively.Although the number of people is small, it is as stable as a mountain.

Seeing that the rebels were about to climb up the slope in armor, Lana gritted his teeth and put Fiona down, pulled out the javelin on his calf, poured a bottle of potion, grabbed the two swords and jumped towards the crowd.

The twelve armors immediately formed a thick shield wall, and the blades and spears protruded forward from the gaps, facing his impact like a mythical creature.

Lana's assault was like a thunderbolt, and he smashed towards the heavy shield armor, breaking open a space in the steel formation, and the two rebel armors that collided head-on were overturned to the ground.

He took advantage of the situation and tried to take the head of one of them.But the vast number of daggers and battle axes around him chopped at him head and face.

Lana swung his sword to resist, and several cracks were cut on the black heavy armor on the spot.Broken Steel Sword · Majestic Fury Cut Iron and Broken Steel is unstoppable, killing the swarming attacks in a blink of an eye.

But the rebels had no fear in armor, and they alternated cover and attacked at the same time.The people in the front blocked the sweep of the steel sword at the cost of damaging the heavy shield, and the others took advantage of the situation to besiege from all directions.

In just a moment, there were seven or eight wounds on Lana's body.Although he killed one person with the sharpness of the magic sword, he was also bruised and bruised like a black bear besieged by hyenas.

After fighting for a while, the rebels put on their armor and retreated a little, then rearranged their equipment in front of Lana, and once again formed a formation with shields in front and spears and axes outflanking.

On the distant surface of the water, another large group of rafts came towards the breach.Even Lance, who had just been shot, swayed and moved towards this side.

Lana saw that the situation was not good, and shouted back: "Fiona, prepare to liberate the Eternal Patriarch for the second time!"

Fiona had just got up from the ground, and before she had time to react, the rebels in armor had already circled behind Lana, raised the armor-piercing hammer and smashed at him.

Lana fought and retreated, leaning towards Fiona.

Amidst a gust of wind and the sound of howling, the armored soldiers swarming in were routed.The few rebels who were outflanking him suddenly became confused.

Murat arrived.He wore a double-layer armor composed of silver breastplate and dense mail, and held a three-meter halberd to kill a rebel in armor.

His halberd is the standard weapon of the centurion of the legion. It has a sharp spear and a sharp ax blade. strike or knock down the horse.There is also a heavy metal counterweight at the end of the halberd, which can be used as a hammer in the hands of a skilled warrior.

The weapon is not difficult to wield, and can even be used as a fortified lance to lunge forward in battle.However, only those knights and veterans who have been trained for a long time can exert the true power of this heavy weapon.

Murat launched a short assault on the outflanking armored rebels with a sharp spear. The point-cone armor pierced the shield and knocked another armored stab to the ground.He immediately turned stabs into chops, and swept away with the axe.

A group of rebels in armor are also powerful warriors with rich combat skills and experience. They swiftly took half a step back to avoid the sweep, and stepped forward like lightning to split Murat's breastplate with a sword, even wounding the inner part of the body. Lined mail.Murat immediately lost the advantage of distance.

For a long weapon, this brief melee is deadly enough.But Murat pressed and retracted the front end of the halberd, and the sharp iron behind the ax blade tore an armored gauntlet at the same time as it retracted from the confrontation.Murat completely abandoned the defense, reversed the halberd with the bravery of giving up his life, and smashed the enemy head-on with the counterweight hammer.

His blows came in one go and were unstoppable.

"Boom!" The armored soldier's head shattered under the helmet and fell crookedly.

"It's two-to-nine now." Lana stood up, gasping for breath, and was formed into a back-to-back formation by Murat.

Murat shook her head, and handed the horse-killing sword to her companion, "For a heavy weapon, the Eternal Patriarch will give it to Fiona to prepare for a combo."

The armored rebels gathered in front of them slowly retreated. Although they retreated, their pace and formation remained undisturbed.

Behind them, Lance appeared.

Dead bodies were piled up everywhere in the turbid shallow water, and the bloody and muddy water was frozen by the freezing air and had not yet melted.The cracked head looked up at the sky with hollowness and resentment, and the severed limbs all over the ground seemed to reach out from hell, grabbing towards the world of the living.

Lance's iron boots crushed a rebel's head, and walked over indifferently.The remaining armored soldiers gathered around him and spread out in an arc.

Every step he took seemed to be walking in the gap between reality and the abyss.Just to gaze at his figure is to perceive some unspeakable disorder of dissonance.

……

Nona came to her companion with a diamond-shaped shield and a long sword, and guarded the gap with Lana and Murat.

Kulala's dancing figure appeared on the roof in the distance.She was withdrawing from another location and sprinting up to the attic of a nearby house.She has set up a cover position there and can provide remote support at any time.

The Xiutorals have already given up the defense in other areas, and they are all concentrated in the gap.Although other positions may also be breached, if the rebel general is on the front line, it is no big deal to allow the rebels to break through in other directions.

Homenworth's side has already lost the Transcendent, so they can only concentrate all their strength here.

"Gentlemen, combos," Nona tapped her sword on her shield, "I'm here for the two Heralds!"

Sonia came. She had just shaken off her trauma and her complexion was not very good, but she could still hold on.

Fiona retrieved the Eternal Patriarch, thrusting the magic sword into the ground with both hands.

"Tough shield, activate."

The magic sword was moaning, and bright ripples stirred in the air.

Fiona's eyes gradually lost the restless expression, and became as elegant and holy as the icon of the church.The colorful magic ripples connected the three Shutorals, forming a layer of crystal halo on their bodies.

Thirty archers ran out from among the rebels, they lined up before the leader arrived, and shot a round of arrows at Shutoral who was guarding the gap from a distance.The arrow pierced through the shield, but was decelerated and weakened like passing through water and cotton, and then bounced weakly and deflected on the breastplate.

As long as Fiona is still charging the Eternal Patriarch, the magic shield will always provide protection for the three of them. All attacks will be weakened by the shield first, and then they can test their fine armor.

The wound on Lana, who was covered by the shield, began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his exhaustion and discouragement were all swept away.

He clenched his fist in satisfaction, inserted the Majestic Fury into the scabbard around his waist, and raised the Horse-Slaying Sword on his shoulder.

The three of them stood motionless in the rain of arrows. If it wasn't for a powerful single attack, none of them could pose a real threat to them.Nona even put down her shield temporarily, took out her hornbow and shot back.

The thirty or so archers gathered in front of the three of them were named one by one by her and the hidden Kulala.The rebel archers couldn't shoot the defense of the opposite side, but they only needed to be hit once to be fatal.After being shot down seven or eight in a row, he ran away with his head in his arms.

Berthier and Dedius followed in the gap.Their faces were bloodless, but their bodies were filled with turbulent magic power. Their skin and clothes surged like ripples and liquids, and they were actually transformed into the same substance and connected into one.

Lana looked at them in surprise, but he couldn't detect the breath of the living at all, like a piece of ice and a ball of flame walking...

They, who have always been in the safe rear, realized that they were on the verge of life and death, and began to counterattack frantically!
Berthier, who used to be gentle and shy in the past, had a strange calmness and weirdness in his words:

"Weitzleben has been killed.

"Echo communication has been partially restored. Old Town will send more reinforcements and even Transcendents, but it will take time. If we can't stop this wave, let's go to Huangquan to sing together.

"It is known that Lance is a rare Sequence 7 horror knight of the abyss pathway, with characteristics that imply distortion and mutation. He has been trapped in this level for a long time, and may have powers that are unknown to the authorities."

Dedius beside him jumped like a burning flame, and added with almost the same tone and tone:
"Leave the miscellaneous soldiers to us, and Xiutoral will concentrate on dealing with Lance."

Nona glanced at them in surprise: "You guys, are you planning to do this? Stop, it's too dangerous."

"No need to say more. (Stop talking nonsense.)"

Berthier and Dedius move towards each other.They were wrapped in crazy magic power, and the activated magic circle did not appear beside them, but was directly imprinted in their eyes.

Every time they took a step, their bodies mutated and twisted a little.

After seven steps, they lose their human appearance and transform into humanoid icy air masses and flames.

"A high-level element descends. (The fusion begins.)"

A breath of terrifying magic power sweeps across the slope full of dead bodies.The spiritual energy ripples of the two tend to be synchronized, merging with each other like elemental spirits.The bleak light visible to the naked eye emanated from the unrepentant corpses, which were being captured and devoured by the two of them.

The approaching Lance stopped in his tracks, squinted his eyes and looked at the astonishing scene in front of him, and said lightly after a while:

"I thought I was twisted enough,

"I didn't expect you little bastards to show off too much.

"Don't give them time to fuse, attack with me!"

The fierce Lance drove straight to the broken entrance under the cover of armored squires.He didn't hold a strong bow, but a small shield and flail that looked like a goat's skull, and he rushed towards Murat.

Murat immediately met with his halberd.His thrust was precise and fast, and it hit the sheep bone shield in Lance's hand accurately.

"Bah!"

At the moment of the hit, Murat felt as if she was hit by a war horse, and suddenly lost her center of gravity.The seemingly small shield not only deflected his full thrust, but also bounced back the force, disrupting his rhythm all at once.

Lance grabbed the flail and threw it head-on at him.

This blow seemed ordinary, but it rolled like a storm. Murat even saw the vision of the space being distorted, and felt that the flail seemed to be accelerating repeatedly in several planes, or was it from different planes? The power of the flail is superimposed on this blow, and it will definitely cause an irresistible fatal blow.

Nona cut between Murat and Lance with a rhombus shield.Her strength is the strongest among the female storrals. She cooperates with a sword and a shield in combat, often supplemented by a sharp spear, and can cope with various situations.But when cutting into the battle, Nona didn't dare to be careless at all, supporting the shield with both hands to meet the enemy.

"boom!"

With a thunderous bang, the flail pierced through the tough shield, bent Nona's shield, and even broke her arm.Nona was directly sent flying, and she fell down with Murat.

Lance's blow hadn't been withdrawn yet, Lana had already caught up and slashed at Lance head-on with the Horse-Chopping Sword.Senran Jianfeng blocked Lance's pursuit and even knocked him back a few steps.

The rebels came forward to help in the battle, all in armor and swords.However, they bumped into something head-on and stopped suddenly.

Sonia had cast an invisible storm in front of them, separating them from the leader and blocking the way of reinforcements.

Although the blood of the soldiers more or less has the characteristics of destroying demons, but these rebels can't find a way to break through the barrier in a hurry.They could only detour to the right, and went around to the side without barriers.

Then, they saw a mixture of ice and fire...

An unimaginable monster stood in the way of the armored rebels.The two contradictory and repulsive energies are constantly merging and breaking up, bursting out a terrifying magic vortex.A fog of red and blue particles swirls rapidly in the air.

This is a giant ball lightning.At the heart of the lightning, is a vague figure.His legs couldn't be seen clearly, but they were symmetrically divided into flames and frost.

It floated at a height of half a meter from the ground, its whole body was covered by an extremely thick silver shield, and the fire and frost magic balls were spinning rapidly around its wrists.

It surged towards the horrified rebels in armor, and let out an inhuman and terrifying growl:

"Elemental Lord Berenus,
"Fusion—Complete."
