Imperial Crown.

Chapter 330 Breaking the Defense

Joz felt like he was going crazy.

He is a fourth-level strongman!
It’s obvious that Link is only at level two, and it’s obvious that the people around him are just mortals.

But several hours passed, and he still didn't have enough time to take down Link!

"Come out, come out!"

Shouting angrily, Joz strode forward and stabbed the Eagle Army in front of him with a sword.

But before his sword could fall into place, four spears emerged from behind the Eagle Army and pointed at his chest.

This ordinary weapon was not enough to hurt him, but the force still made him pause on the spot.

At this moment, the soldier on the opposite side retreated and avoided his sword.

That's it again!

At the beginning, it was fine, as Link could only hide in the army formation, making sneak attacks from time to time, and letting him kill his soldiers.

But as time went on, he was still unable to kill Link, and the continuous consumption of his fighting spirit made his offensive power weaker and weaker.

After killing 21 enemy soldiers, the enemy's interference tactics finally took effect.

Every time he tried to attack, he would be pushed back like this.

Often, even after three or five strikes of the sword, one may not be able to kill an enemy.

Obviously, most of the people on the other side are just mortals!

The other party was even only wearing leather armor!

It was all because of the opponent's crossbow and kerosene at the beginning, which consumed too much of his fighting spirit. Otherwise, another Fog Night Phantom Slash would definitely be able to break through this weak line of defense!
"Come and die!"

"Mercenaries are just mercenaries." Link did not speak out, but his voice came from the formation:

"Go back, war is not for you."

That’s it again!
The pent-up anger in Joz's heart was instantly ignited.

He thought of his past, and the humiliating past in which he was a third-level transcendent but could not even obtain a mere knight title!

The nobles who refused his allegiance were polite on the surface, but Joz knew that in their hearts, they all had the same idea as Link.

Mercenaries are mercenaries.

So what if they are mercenaries? Are they naturally inferior to others?
"Within ten steps, there is only fighting, no war!"

With another roar, Joz strode forward and rushed forward!

The spear couldn't stop him from charging at full speed.

Although he seems to have lost his mind, Joz knows what he is doing and what he is going to do!
Whenever this happens, Link will take action personally. This is the rule summarized by Joz.

At this moment he was surprisingly focused.

A flaming spear came out from the side and headed straight for his throat!

A sneer rose in Qiao Zi's heart, and he swung his sword in the air and slashed towards the sharp blade of the spear.

锃

The Sharp Blood Sword was a third-tier enchanted weapon, and it barely needed any fighting spirit to cut off the spear tip and drop it to the ground.

Then, the fighting spirit in Joz's body surged, and his speed suddenly increased. He took a step forward with his left leg, grasped the gun barrel tightly, and pulled it back with force.

Sure enough, a figure was pulled out from the crowd by him.

The smile on the corner of his mouth froze at this moment.

Because Joz suddenly discovered that the man was wearing a green cloak.

Not Link, but a Typhon Fang.

So where is Link!?
A long spear pierced through the cloak of Typhon's Tooth at a very tricky angle, and the speed was so fast that even Joz was a little frightened.

It's Link!
Flames ignited on the tip of the spear and flew straight to Joz's face, which was the weakest link in the full set of plate armor's defense.

This time, Qiaozi was no longer able to unleash his martial spirit and battle patterns.

But he was an experienced mercenary after all, and at the critical moment, Joz still turned his head slightly.

click -

The spear blade pierced into Joz's forehead, exactly the same place as the last time Link hit him.

The magic patterns on the armor lit up due to the pressure of external force, and then shattered under the erosion of flames!
Blood splattered.

Joz's visor flew high into the air and landed on the ground with a thud.

Blood instantly covered half of his face.

The blazing white flames burned his eyebrows bald.

However, this was not the end. Typhon's Tooth, who had just been pulled out by him and seemed to have lost his balance, drew out an enchanted dagger from his arms and stabbed it into Joz's lower abdomen!

The dark green sword blade pierced through the armor, and the splashing blood turned green in mid-air.

There was a numb feeling at the wound, and Joz knew that it was the spreading of a fierce poison, and his brows were tightly furrowed.

How can it be?

How could he be forced to such a point by a group of mortals and two low-level transcendents?
But it's not over yet.

Joz saw Link, but he couldn't see any expression through the visor, but Link's actions were still as simple and direct as when they first met.

With his hands at his sides and his legs slightly apart, he drew his gun and stabbed again.

Joz didn't care about the Tooth of Typhon in his arms. He raised the sword in his hand to block Link's stab, and keenly noticed that Link's right hand on the end of the gun was slightly pressed down.

So he raised the tip of the sword in his hand to guard against the possible attack in advance.

However, this time, Link didn't wait for his right hand to press firmly, but suddenly grabbed the butt of the gun and lifted it up. The tip of the gun turned downward, brushed the shoulder of Typhon's Fang, and stabbed into Joz's left chest!
Time seemed to stop at this moment.

Joz could clearly see flames burning on the foot-long cold spear tip, colliding with and annihilating his protective fighting spirit armor, and a cloud of gray mist exploded.

The gun blade sank into it, and a string of sparks flashed from the friction between steel and steel.

Then, it pierced his still beating heart.

"what--"

The last of his fighting spirit burst out, and Joz swung his sword downwards fiercely.

Link's spear was cut off by the sword before he could retract it. Typhon's Fang retreated, but half of his arm was still chopped off.

A light flashed on the sharp blood sword, and the half of the broken arm shrank instantly, and the withdrawn Typhon's Tooth looked even paler.

The plundered life energy flowed back into Joz's body through his arms, but it did not make Joz feel comforted.

"Wow--"

He opened his mouth and vomited a ball of blood. Every beat of his heart was so painful.

Link led a group of Eagle soldiers to retreat quietly, apparently to avoid Joz's possible crazy counterattack.

"I can't die here..."

"I can't... die like this!!!"

He reached into his belt and pulled out a gray stone. The magical patterns on it crocheted an old baby's arm.

"I'd rather become a monster than die!!"

Joz exerted force with his arms, and the rune stone shattered into pieces, transforming into a white breath of death that poured into his five senses and seven orifices!

“Ah…Ah!!!!”

Trembling and roaring, and the roaring turned into a roar.

Joz's originally plump skin began to become shriveled, like a dried corpse that had been left for several years; his pupils turned gray, and the blood in his body rotted and dried, emitting a strong stench; his brown hair was dry and pale, like dead grass in winter.

The shadowy fighting spirit gushing out of the armor turned into a dead white.

Puff. Joz grabbed the broken gun on his chest and slowly pulled it out of his chest, leaving a stream of sticky and rotten blood on the gun blade.

With a clang, the gun blade fell to the ground.

Joz pointed his sword at Link, and a deadly white fighting spirit erupted from his body, completely enveloping himself in it:
"This time, you can't hide!!!"

The pale breath of death gushed out of him like a carnival, fell to the ground, and turned into white bone arms, tightly grasping the Eagle Army including Link.

Joz turned the hilt of the sword upside down, knelt on one knee, and stabbed the blade into the ground suddenly, rippling as if it was melting.

Clusters of white bones like mountains of swords rose from the ground and pierced the legs and feet of the defenders. Blood bloomed and flowed on the ground and instantly decayed into black.

"what!!!!!"

"Asshole, devil, kill me if you can!"

"The Lord of Light will punish your soul!!!"

Screams and curses rang out one after another.

Among these people, only Link was not injured.

Joz glared at Link coldly. He knew what Link cared about, so he wanted to give Link the greatest torture.

He wanted Link to watch all the soldiers die slowly in pain, and then enjoy this delicious dish of Link!

Suddenly, a scream was heard behind me, and then a shadow came and covered the sky.

Joz looked up in surprise, and saw a group of horned hippogryphs suddenly appear in the sky!

No, it’s not Hippogryph, it’s the Wind King!!!
Electricity brewed under their wings, the air began to become sticky and scorching, and Joz's loose white hair floated like a dandelion under the influence of the current.

then
Thunder is coming!

Joz's ears were filled with the roar of thunder, and he watched helplessly as the electric currents under the Wind King's wings gathered together to form a huge net covering the sky and the earth, and then turned into buckets of lightning that smashed down from the sky!
The moment you see it, it's already too late to dodge!
The shriveled heart began to beat again, and Joz clearly experienced what fear was!
Every pore is screaming!
The electric current rushed into the body and collided with the newly born death fighting spirit, splitting and decomposing it.

Joz is burning like a torch!

The body that was clearly dead at this moment clearly felt the pain.

“Wooooooooo!!!”

Flames burst out of his throat along with a beast-like howl.

The gray-white eyeballs boiled and exploded like water balls, revealing the hazy soul fire in the pupils.

His body twitched and turned uncontrollably as he saw an extremely tragic scene.

This time, all those who rushed onto the city walls were Marquis Palmer's Wolf-Faced Legion.

The sky was filled with thunder, like a purple rainstorm, or like a bamboo forest growing wildly from the ground.

The soldiers of the Wolf-Faced Legion were baptized by the electric surge. Electric fire burst out on their armor, and scorching smoke and a foul smell rose from the gaps in the armor.

The deathly air in their half-dead bodies was driven out by lightning and squeezed out of the body, turning into burning fire. When their helmets rolled off, one could see their flesh and blood gradually becoming fuller.

But this is not a good thing.

Patterns like roots of lightning grew on her plump skin, and the bloodless wounds on her body began to crack, and the spurting blood was roasted and burnt before it hit the ground.

The wails and screams coming from their mouths almost drowned out the thunder!
As the thunder gradually flowed away from the city wall, no wolf-faced warrior could stand in the thunder, and the air was filled with the smell of burning and smoke from the electric fire.

Joz's mouth was full of ashes. He raised his arm and wanted to wipe his lips, but just when he raised it halfway, the armor on his right arm fell off and made a crisp sound on the ground.

He looked down at his right arm, and saw that after the armor had peeled off, there was only a piece of charcoal-like remains.

Joz gave a wry smile.

On this battlefield, no one could match him in a one-on-one fight, but his record was only killing dozens of well-trained ordinary soldiers.

In the end, he fell into the hands of the Wind King, who was at most level 2.

"So, this is war..."

Strength is not the only criterion.

The next moment, a piece of gun tip pierced through his back, came out from his chest, and the gun blade appeared in front of him.

On the smooth gun blade, Joz's face, which had completely turned into a skull, was reflected.

"Link?"

Joz asked, but there was no response, the spear in front of his chest was suddenly pulled back, then pierced from the back of his occipital bone, piercing his head.

"...Really, be cautious."

The soul fire in his eyes, at this moment, was extinguished along with Joz's noble dream.

Link put away his gun, looked at Joz's body standing there, let out a long sigh, and then collapsed on the ground.

In the distance, the Wind King’s troops are still attacking!
They swooped down from mid-air, forming a circular formation, tightly surrounding the earthen hill that was close to the city wall, and hundreds of pairs of wings flapped in unison!

woohoo hoo...

boom! ! !
The fierce winds connected together and turned into a thick tornado that was visible to the naked eye!

Amid a burst of intense screams, the first to be swept away were the Eivor soldiers who had not yet stepped onto the city wall.

They were lifted up high like fallen leaves caught in a whirlpool, spinning endlessly in the air. Their weapons and armors detached from their bodies and turned into the most deadly hidden weapons.

Some people were cut by the scattered weapons, some were entangled with each other, and the unlucky ones on the periphery were not sucked in, but were thrown away by the huge wind force and smashed into pieces of meat-smeared discus on the ground.

The dirt and dust on the hill were all blown up as if by an explosion, gushing out from the tip of the tornado, making the entire sky dim.

Crisp sounds of "crackling" came from the storm. It was the sound of wooden beams in the earth hill being rolled up, broken and destroyed!
Along with the bodies were thrown up, as well as the bodies buried in the hill of earth.

The tornado moved forward until it destroyed a hill of earth that was dozens of meters long before it finally stopped.

In the storm, corpses were thrown to the ground with a crackling sound, like a hail of blood and flesh.

Those who did not turn into corpses in the air were also broken into pieces after landing.

On the command platform, Earl Palmer, who witnessed this tragic scene, had a gloomy face like the bottom of a pot, and his body was shaking:
"Wind King——Raven!!"

"He has been nearby for a long time. He has been waiting for this day!!!"

"Since we can't get close to the camp, he will wait for us to attack the city. When we reach the city wall without any long-range support, he will take advantage of the situation to inflict heavy damage on us!!!"

"My Wolf-Faced Legion, Wolf-Faced Legion!!!"

In order to take down the Wall of Sighs, today Earl Palmer threw all of his 5000-strong Wolf-Faced Legion into the battle.

Now, most of it has been lost in one go.

His heart is bleeding!

To create a tireless wolf-faced warrior, you need to sacrifice at least two serfs’ lives and valuable magic materials!

This does not include the heavy armor they are equipped with.

"Damn it!" After cursing for a few times, Earl Palmer slowly regained his senses. He took a deep breath and shouted an order:

"Send more scouts. Raven must be nearby by now! Be prepared for his sneak attack!"

But no one took the order.

Just as Palmer was about to break through again, the voice of Marquis Faraday sounded:
"No need, he's already here."

"It's there."

Palmer turned his head and looked in the direction of Faraday's fat fingers.

A few miles away, on the loess plateau, there was a group of more than a thousand heavily armored cavalrymen reining in their horses.

Only the leader was not wearing heavy armor.

The black eagle battle flag flutters against the wind!
