From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man

Chapter 154 The expected development of the city defense army: Leader’s chatter (two-in-one)

"Dang~dang.dang."

The helmeted head landed on the ground, bouncing and rolling a few times before coming to a complete stop. Its gaze happened to be directed towards the standing headless body.

Only then did the captain of the city defense army realize that he had been beheaded by the white-haired boy with a sword?

How could it move so fast?

Did that kid really swing his sword?
In the end, darkness completely swallowed up his entire field of vision, and death pulled him into eternal coldness. He would never find a chance to answer his question in this life.

But the archer who stood on the eaves and was the first to attack did not stop attacking because of the death of the city defense captain. Her movements were smooth and smooth, and every arrow could accurately lock the target.

Whoosh-whoosh-!
More than a dozen armor-piercing arrows were seen trailing green light and cutting through the air. In just a few seconds, they shot through all the city defense troops who were preparing to torture the man's family.

As for the white-haired boy who completed the decapitation without leaving any trace, he continued to move forward with a sword in one hand under the gaze of the public.

? !
"what's the situation?"

Vulkan, who was wielding a giant frost hammer, Thorjan, who was holding a dwarf sword, and Pietro Bomir, who had a frontier style of action, also charged quickly to join the battle.

At the same time, some city defense troops were also preparing to take off the fast-shooting crossbows hanging from their waists to deal with the archers who were a little too unscrupulous, as well as the white-haired boy who beheaded their captain.
That is, Sui Yang's descendant, Duo En.

To be precise, he was shocked by the two original bodies.

People who observed the situation also felt a sense of regret.

But before they had time to take action, Dorn accelerated his pace and rushed into the array alone? !

Although Dorn killed the captain of the city defense army with one sword, this does not mean that the city defense army is weak.

Bah!
Then, the arc of the blade with wind magic sliced ​​the limbs and torso into pieces.

"Ahh!! My arm!!"

"Formation! Formation!"

"No!"

"Is this kid still a human?!"

But those legends are a bit too far away for the people, and Dorne and Vulkan are standing on the street in front of them.

Even though his back was inevitably exposed, without giving the defenders a chance to react or attack, Dorn had already left his original position, then held the sword in both hands and swept across.

Plop-plop-!
Mangled corpses and pieces of meat of various sizes fell from the sky.

Things did not develop as everyone expected.

Dorn and Vulkan were brothers who grew up together. Their perfect cooperation, coupled with the strength, speed and reaction of the original body, completely defeated the enemy's psychological defense line at the moment of the confrontation.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

boom--!
The cold light sword blade released a burst of strong tornadoes, which immediately shook and flew away the surrounding city defense troops. Moreover, the densely packed small wind blades were still piercing and cutting the city defense troops continuously.

However.
Swish-!
The silver light appeared again.

In addition to using enchanted weapons, Dorn and Vulkan relied on their pure physical fitness and fighting skills to powerfully disintegrate the city defense army.

Seeing that the captain's head was missing and his colleagues fell to the ground one after another, more than a hundred city defense troops gathered here immediately entered a defensive position, relying on enchanted war shields to resist the archers' sniping.

"Elves? Look carefully at their ears. I'm sure they are humans."

The well-equipped city defense army with a hundred men was actually torn apart by Dorn alone.

They had witnessed the entire battle at close range, and were all shocked by the strength displayed by Dorn, Vulkan, and Aoi.

You must know that most of the city defense troops are descendants of the royal capital's nobles. They have received instruction from famous teachers and militarized training since childhood. After receiving the resource support from the Minister of State, the armor and weapons they are equipped with are second only to the Imperial Forbidden Army.

"Kill that brat!"

Soljan and Pietro formed a double battle formation, and through their rich practical experience, they were able to maneuver among the enemy groups with ease.

"Counterattack with a crossbow!"

Seeing this scene, more than a hundred city defense troops were confused, thinking that the brat was so obsessed with it that he chose to die on his own initiative.

Dorn rushed into the enemy's formation at a speed that was too fast to catch, and the city defenders who confronted him at close range were no match for him.

Chi——!
The mithril blade easily tore through expensive and delicate armor.

Comparable to this.
Bang-bang-!
The giant hammer forged from the leg bones of the frost giant ape directly violently smashed and blasted the guys who were still trying to attack and sneak attack.

The remaining city defense soldiers either turned around and fled, or abandoned their armor and knelt down to surrender.

The people watching expressed their own emotions.

In an instant, screams, wails, and frightened roars echoed throughout the street.

In terms of actual combat experience, they are indeed not as good as the Lord Guards on the frontier, but no matter which angle you analyze it from, they are not mediocre soldiers who can let a young boy fight against a hundred.

At this point, the battle between five men and a hundred men ended with Dorn, Vulcan, Aoi, Thorjan, and Pietro remaining unscathed.

It’s not just him;

And as soon as the blood mist rose, it was dissipated by the strong air current.

Throughout Terraira, there are many legends who have practiced their physical skills to the pinnacle, and can defeat one against a hundred, or even one against a thousand, without the need for magic.

"Those two children are incredibly talented, aren't they elves?"

"Wait a minute, if those two children are humans, doesn't that mean they are... the sons of the Human Emperor?"

"may be?"

Some people began to connect Dorne and Vulkan to the elven prophecies.

And in the middle of the street at this moment.

"This..." Sol Yang also looked in disbelief.

The dwarf returned the long sword to its holster, looked at the corpses everywhere, and several city defenders who were completely frightened and surrendered on their own initiative. He then turned to look at the original body with blood stains on his body, and asked:
"Are you two really only one year old?"

Dorn put the storm sword behind his back again and replied: "Can this be false?"

"It is indeed one year old." Vulcan nodded.

Hear the words.

Thor Young seemed calm and calm on the surface, but in fact he was completely impressed by the two original bodies.

Even Pietro, who likes to remain silent, is the same. At the same time, he yearns for and respects the new emperor far in the south. After all, if his offspring under one year old can possess such strength, how powerful will the Human Emperor himself be?
At this time, Aoyi, who was as light as a swallow, jumped down from the eaves and landed on Dorn's right hand side without making any sound. He looked at the people who were gradually leaving the alleys, houses and shops, and proactively suggested:
"Now it can be declared that you and Vulkan are both heirs of the Human Emperor. I think there will be many people following you. You must know that the main force of the city defense army will arrive soon, so we need help and assistance."

Aoi was not too surprised by the terrifying strength shown by Dorn and Vulkan, and seemed to only focus on the current situation.

"No." Dorn had long noticed the whispers of the people around him and continued:
"The current situation is not suitable for announcements or speeches, not to mention that I am not good at that. I believe that no matter how much you talk, it is better to be practical.

We have given the beginning, and the rest depends on their own choices. "

It didn't take long for Donn to finish speaking.

The man's family, who was almost massacred by the city defense army, returned to the streets.

Among them, the man's daughter wanted to trot up to Dorn and others to express her gratitude, but she was immediately frightened back when she saw corpses and body parts on the ground.

Finally, the man stretched out his hand and bent down, held his daughter in his arms, covered her eyes and rushed forward, saying with a slightly trembling voice of gratitude:
"Thank you so much! I...I don't know how I can repay you. Without you, our family would have been killed on the spot."

"Thank you uncles and aunties..." my daughter echoed in a low voice.

"You're welcome!" Sol Yang laughed: "I've long been unhappy with that group of glamorous, yet arrogant and domineering guys."

"That's right." Pietro said with a unanimous view.

"Yeah." Aoi didn't say much, just nodded in response, and then began to recover the armor-piercing arrows she shot.

Moreover, these three people did not mind the title of "uncle and aunt" at all, and believed that the man's daughter was very sensible and polite.

"... "

Dorn, on the other hand, fell into a brief silence.

The primarch's emotions were usually exuberant, and the twitching of the corners of his mouth indicated that he did not know how to correct the girl's title.

It always feels awkward to ask the other person to call him brother. After all, he and his brother are actually younger than the other person.

"Haha, this is what we should do." Vulgan chose to accept it calmly, and comforted the little girl who dared not open her eyes and was protected by a man:
"Don't be afraid, those on the ground are just... bad people, we just wash away their sins."

Vulkan, who has learned a lot from his father, knows that in this world, the word "good or bad" is not used to distinguish everything. Everyone and everything are multi-faceted...

Of course, Vulkan cannot deny that someone or something is indeed pure "evil".

However, in the eyes of a girl whose mind is not yet mature, it seems that there are only good guys and bad guys in the world.

"Don't be afraid." Dorn, who was no longer entangled, continued his brother's words to comfort him, and said with a smile: "With us here, no bad people will bully you anymore."

As he spoke, Donne focused on the man, using his voice that was still in the voice-changing stage, and said solemnly:

“As my brother said, helping you is what we are supposed to do, and now is not the time to discuss how to be grateful.

There will be violent conflicts here soon. If I were you, I would choose to take my family and hide as far away as possible to avoid getting involved. "

Donn controlled the volume just right so that the man and his family could hear clearly while also alerting the people around him.

But the man did not answer in a hurry. Instead, he handed his daughter to his wife first, then endured the pain, picked up a long sword with his worn right hand, and said firmly:
"I know my family will stay away, but I will stay.

This is not just to repay you... because this is my battle to begin with. "

The man held the sword in both hands, without any hesitation or fear in his eyes, staring at the end of the street where the main force of the city defense army gradually emerged.

You must know that the reason why the man's family is being targeted is that they are still secretly spreading the new Emperor's remarks, and are also trying to contact like-minded people to prepare for some substantial "sabotage."

So the city defense army sent a hundred-man team as bait, and then used extreme measures to execute the man's family in public to arouse public anger and violent conflicts. In this way, there was a "legitimate" reason to carry out the bloody purge process.

"Yes! This is our battle too!"

Suddenly, a strong and powerful voice echoed through the streets.

I saw the dwarf blacksmith, who had long wanted to be the first person in armed resistance, carrying a forging hammer, walking from the shade under the eaves to the center of the street illuminated by the sun, and facing the amassing city defense forces together with the man.

"Those two young men are not afraid, so what are we afraid of?!"

"It's time for the Minister of State to re-understand the customs and customs of the royal capital!"

"Everyone! Don't forget to pick up the swords, hand crossbows, and enchanted shields on the ground. These are all good things to save your life!"

More and more people are leaving the darkness and choosing to face the main force of the heavily armed city defense forces together.

And unknowingly, the residents have regarded the Dorne Five as the leaders of the uprising who led them to overthrow the Minister of State.

at this time.

Aoyi, who was standing at the forefront of the crowd, looked at Dorn beside him, thinking about something with complex eyes.

Dorn, on the other hand, did not notice Aoi's gaze. He raised his right hand and took off the huge storm sword that was carried on his back, and brought the shimmering blade to the end of the street.

Then, Donne, who knew that he did not have much talent for speaking, did not say any righteous words, nor did he give any pre-war encouragement. He just raised his voice and said:

"Vulkan, my brother! Let us break through the enemy lines for the residents of the royal capital together!"

"With pleasure!" Vulcan responded loudly.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, the two original bodies fearlessly charged towards the city defense forces.

"Hey! You two slow down!"

Thor Young and the dwarf blacksmith followed closely, as well as dozens of dwarf residents.

"Everyone!" Pietro stayed where he was and reminded everyone: "The moment when the two young men Dorn and Vulkan disintegrated the enemy's formation, that's when we came into use. Now hold on to your position, don't panic, and Don’t be impatient!”

As for Aoi…

This female elf who is over 500 years old has jumped back to the eaves, preparing to use her best bow and arrow for sniping.

!

But from a high perspective, she also observed that the city defense army brought a large number of long-range weapons such as repeating crossbows and fire guns.

"Be careful..."

"Hahahaha!"

Just when Aoi wanted to remind Pietro to pay attention to the attacks of repeating crossbows and fire guns, he was interrupted by a pleasant laughter.

But soon, Aoyi withdrew her pleasant comments, because the laughing lady became very talkative again:
"Little brother, look at me! Yes, this side, this side, don't point your dangerous weapon at innocent people, and then... suffer death!"

Behind the main force of the city defense force that had completed its assembly, nearly a hundred "human" warriors equipped with ring armor and dressed as freelance mercenaries and adventurers appeared.

Among them, the chatty woman with long silver hair and holding a giant sword that cut the city defense army's crossbowmen in two was particularly eye-catching.
