Chapter 161 Armor
The sun was slowly setting towards the west, reflecting a large cloud in red.The red clouds are one after another, like a raging fire burning in the sky.

The cool evening wind blows slowly, even if the distance is far, you can still smell the slightest smell of blood.

Tang Feng and Paul walked side by side, leading the soldiers back to the Aberdeen camp.

They have just been withdrawn from the field.

After the baptism of the cruel battlefield, under the test of life and death of blood and iron, especially in the last two battles, they have changed from a backup and auxiliary role to a member of the main battle team.

Today, they can already be regarded as a qualified fighter.

"Look, it's the boss!"

Paul touched Tang Feng with his shoulder, and the shiny armor collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

Tang Feng followed his line of sight.

On the hillside in the distance, Anthony, who was dressed in white, stood together with Yalena and Carton, looking at the Aberdeen troops who had just retreated from the front line.

The distance between the two sides was relatively far, Tang Feng didn't say hello or waved his hands, but just reached out and touched the armor on his body, feeling scared for a while.

Anthony just talked to him the day before yesterday and wanted to help him prepare a set of armor.As a result, the things had already been delivered early this morning, just before the army went to battle.

Thanks to the armor of the boss, otherwise he would have been in a lot of trouble today.Even if he managed to save his life, he would end up seriously injured.

This is a full body armor that covers him from head to toe.The appearance is simple and unpretentious, without any extra decoration.There is no carving of dragons or phoenixes, or patterns of birds and beasts that are common in other armors. It just naturally presents the original color and characteristics of steel.

The only peculiarity may be that the appearance is extremely flat and smooth, and the corners and turns are extremely smooth.Just like the wind blows the clouds, and the water circles the rocks, the artistic conception of flowing clouds and flowing water is as natural as it is, and it doesn't seem like it can be created by a blacksmith in the world.Even the dwarves, who are world-famous for their forging techniques, may not be able to create such artistic works.

But this is only on the surface.

Only after putting on the armor, Tang Feng could discover its wonder.

At first glance, this set of armor should be made of steel, which is not too heavy, and probably takes a light route.But when Tang Feng took it from Anthony's hand, he didn't pay attention and almost dropped the thing on his instep.

For an ordinary strong man, it would not take much effort to pick up such a set of armor.Although Tang Feng's martial arts cultivation base is not high, he is still a professional after all.In terms of strength, why is it more than five times that of ordinary people, and he can hardly even hold a set of armor?How can this be!

While Tang Feng was surprised by the unusual weight of the armor, he was secretly embarrassed.

The set of armor that the boss took out obviously has other secrets, and it is by no means as simple as it looks on the outside.

But such a treasure, I have no luck to enjoy it.

As long as you wear it on your upper body, it becomes extremely difficult for you to even walk, let alone go into battle.

The good things that the boss specially prepared for him are indeed what he needs most now.Is it because of this ridiculous reason that he refused the boss's kindness?Besides, who doesn't like the magic armor?Even if you can't use it now, you will naturally be able to use it when you improve your martial arts in the future.

But as soon as this side received it, they turned around and put the things in the package, which is too ugly.The boss made it very clear that this was specially prepared for him to go into battle to kill the enemy.

Anthony didn't seem to notice the entanglement in his heart. He stretched out his hand and drew a pattern that he couldn't understand at all. The movements were elegant and fast.Then Tang Feng bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood into the diagram.

Anthony waved his hand, and he photographed the pattern emitting a faint golden light on the armor.The whole set of armor immediately glowed with a soft light.

That ray of light was fleeting and disappeared in a blink of an eye.Together with that strange pattern, it seems that it has been completely integrated into the armor, and there is no trace of it anymore.

The whole process was extremely fast, Tang Feng didn't even figure out what Anthony was doing, but all of this had already been completed.

And then, Tang Feng understood without any explanation at all.

The armor in his hand suddenly lost weight, becoming as light as a feather.

Putting his hands and feet on his upper body nimbly, Tang Feng only felt that the whole suit of armor fit him perfectly.It was as if it was custom-made according to his body size.

Although Anthony has repeatedly emphasized that this is not a set of magic armor.Tang Feng also has not discovered its magical function for the time being.But he still decided in his heart that this was definitely not an ordinary set of armor.

The actions that Anthony completed so quickly that Tang Feng couldn't understand just now, ordinary armor doesn't need these.Besides, the weight of the armor has been reduced, which is a real deal. At least there is a magic like "Falling Feather Technique" in it!
Tang Feng's feeling was right, he quickly realized the unusualness of this suit of armor.

And it is based on the personal experience of his life.

These two days, Anthony's words have been circling in Tang Feng's mind.Is Taranto's purpose as the boss guessed?How should the Aberdeen army respond?In this coming crisis, what can I do?
These thoughts kept flashing uncontrollably in his mind, and he couldn't hold them down.It made him look dazed and out of mind.At yesterday's military meeting, he was extremely distracted, and he almost didn't let General John, who was in a bad mood recently, scold him.

Only when he was on the battlefield, in the brutal fight on the front line of life and death, could Tang Feng temporarily put aside these messy thoughts.

But it was unavoidable that his mind was still a little affected, and he couldn't concentrate [-]%.

In this killing field where dozens or even hundreds of people fall to the ground and die every moment, if you are a little distracted, you are likely to be greeted by the embrace of death.

Just now he chopped down a bearded Taranto soldier to the ground, before Tang Feng could heave a sigh of relief, a mountain cutting ax suddenly slashed out from behind the bearded man who was slowly falling to the ground with the sound of howling wind.

The tricks of the comer are extremely sophisticated, and the timing of their selection is just right.It was the moment when Tang Feng's old power was gone and new power was not born.And just after defeating the enemy, most people will subconsciously relax for a moment.

But Tang Feng could only watch helplessly as the giant ax approached him, without any time to dodge or block.

The assailant was experienced and clearly a veteran of the military.

The most terrible thing is that he is a bronze fighter, and his martial arts cultivation is a whole level higher than Tang Feng's.

Possessing overwhelming strength, and choosing the most suitable time to carry out a sneak attack, the attacker is confident in this move, as if he has seen the scene of the giant ax splitting the body.

And besides closing his eyes and waiting to die, what else could Tang Feng do?
The loud bang of "" seemed to cover up the shocking shouts of soldiers from the two armies around.

The mountain ax hit its target without incident, just as its master intended.

Seeing that a heavy military achievement was about to be obtained, the attacker was ecstatic, and a smile appeared on his ferocious face.

He has been peeping and observing for a long time. This young officer is killing the enemy on the battlefield while shouting commands. It seems that his official position is very high.Maybe it's not impossible to be a captain, or a general, or even a general.But his martial arts cultivation base is low, even lower than himself, the squadron leader of the junior bronze level, but he still likes to rush to the front.

Isn't this blatantly tempting Lao Tzu?
The squadron leader from Taranto was like a quietly lurking cheetah, silently approaching its prey, and when it saw the right moment, it suddenly jumped up and delivered a killing blow.

Seeing the panic-stricken prey, the attacker felt a bloody pleasure in his heart.

With a high position and weak strength, who can be blamed for rushing ahead without knowing what to do?Remember to practice hard in your next life, and now obediently present your head to Lao Tzu!
But he only guessed the beginning, but failed to guess the ending.

Amidst the loud noise that shook the sky, the mountain-opening giant ax ruthlessly hit the young man's armor, knocking the young Aberdeen general far away.

That's right, it's smashing, not chopping, or chopping.

The attacker thought he was holding a hammer rather than a mountain axe.The blow with all his strength just sent the opponent flying, but it didn't break the opponent's armor.

How can this be?

The appearance of his armor is not very heavy.The attacker was a veteran of the battlefield, had seen a lot of weapons and armor, and had a deep understanding of the shape, performance, advantages and disadvantages of various armors.

No matter how you look at it, the suit on the young general will not be a piece of thick armor.Judging by his nimble and light movements when he swung his knife and slashed, it was clearly a set of light armor. How high could the protection be?It's no problem to resist arrows and rapiers, but it's a bit reluctant to slash with a big knife.As for heavy weapons like the mountain axe, the wearer can only pray for the blessing of the heavens.

Just based on the attacker's own experience, it is already unknown how many enemies wearing light armor were killed by him.Under the sharpness of the mountain axe, people and armor are usually split in half.

But the young general was wearing an unknown armor, which was not only light, but also had first-class defensive power.He has good eyesight, and at the moment when the young general was sent flying, he could still see that the armor on the opponent's body was intact, and that it had withstood such a heavy chop without even a little damage.

A series of thoughts flashed through my mind quickly, and before I could think about anything else, the Aberdeen soldiers surrounded him like crazy, protecting Tang Feng who was thrown back under the shadows of many people.

Some other fighters had red eyes, yelled and flew towards the attackers without hesitation. That posture was completely a way of fighting to kill each other.

The attacker sighed secretly, put away the giant axe, and quickly retreated into Taranto's army formation, disappearing after a few turns.

It's not that he's afraid of these Aberdeen soldiers who are red-eyed. It's just that since the chance of hunting is gone, there's no need to waste energy in fighting these miscellaneous soldiers.

Under heavy protection, Tang Feng propped himself on the ground with one hand, struggling to sit up, but he couldn't do it.

Two soldiers under his command hurried forward, one of them supported his arm, and helped him back slowly.

Some of the other soldiers around held shields, some held swords, and scanned the surroundings vigilantly, guarding against cold arrows on the battlefield and possible lurkers.

From time to time, they quickly glanced at Mr. Tang Fengqian in the protection circle, then quickly looked away and continued to be on guard.Those eyes and the expression on his face all revealed his concern and love for his chief.

"How about it?"

Paul rushed over in a hurry, threw the long knife with blood and minced meat to the subordinates behind him, and took over the work of the two soldiers supporting Tang Feng by himself, and asked while supporting Tang Feng .

Although Paul is not a professional, he is very talented and his strength is higher than that of ordinary black iron fighters.

At the very least, Tang Feng was no match for him.

Tang Feng supported his hand and stood still slowly, took a deep breath, and said, "I can't die."

As soon as he spoke, it caused a severe cough.Then he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".

Tang Feng took a few breaths and slowly stood up.

Feeling much better now.

"Okay, I'm fine."

Paul and the soldiers felt relieved when they saw that his complexion was much better than before, and his voice was stronger.

Paul supported him and walked a few dozen steps back, and sat down on a big rock.

There is already a distance from the front line where the battle is the most intense. Taranto, as the defensive side, has always relied on the defense line to resist Aberdeen's attack.Occasional sporadic counterattacks are also near the fortifications, and they have never penetrated too deep into the depths of Aberdeen's army formation. This position should be quite safe.

"I told you a long time ago that you can't do this. Didn't the boss also warn you? Look, something happened!"

As soon as he sat down, Paul began to scold his boss mercilessly.

The other soldiers looked at Tang Feng with concern, and nodded in sympathy.One of the tall soldiers also spoke out to persuade.

"Yes, Mr. Qian. Everyone knows that you are a capable person, and it would be fine to command the battle from the back. With you sitting in the back, everyone knows the bottom line. Leave the charge to us."

Paul grinned and said, "See? That's what everyone says."

Tang Feng smiled helplessly, but felt a burst of warmth and relief in his heart.

Didn't he know in his heart that he is not suitable to take the lead in the charge - Paul is very suitable for this - but due to the characteristics of the recruit team and the actual situation faced by the Aberdeen army, he has to lead by example and boost morale.

After several real battles, the new recruits under his command have now been kneaded into shape, and he highly recognizes himself as the leader, so he should really withdraw his position.Today's attack and injury is a good opportunity. I can take advantage of the situation to retreat to the rear and calmly command and dispatch the soldiers to fight.It is better to leave things like killing the generals and capturing the flag to Paul.

Paul reached out and knocked on the armor on his chest, and exclaimed in a low voice: "I didn't expect that the armor sent by the boss is so powerful. Even if it is the iron can used by the heavy cavalry, it may be more powerful in terms of defense. It may not even match it.”

Anthony did not favor one over another, and prepared a set of armor for Tang Feng and Paul.

"Yes!"

Tang Feng nodded in agreement, his tone full of emotion for the rest of his life.

Things in the world are sometimes so magical and mysterious.For example, whether the chief's set of armor was obtained two days earlier or two days later may not be a trivial matter to others.But for Tang Feng, it was the difference between life and death.

With one hand, he gently stroked the part of his chest that had been chopped by the mountain axe, while silently feeling the situation in his body.

The assailant was actually mistaken, and the magic armor was not completely unscathed under such a fierce attack.A faint dent appeared impressively, recording the dangers the owner had experienced.

However, after being hit by the giant axe, it is only a little bit "disfigured" in appearance, and it is not even damaged in function.The defensive power of this set of armor made Tang Feng speechless.

After he was attacked, he vomited blood and fell to the ground, because he couldn't bear the attack force that was higher than one level of martial arts, not because his armor was weak in protection.Armor can only withstand the sharpness of the enemy's weapons, but it cannot isolate the transmission of pure power.

Reminiscent of the lightness and flexibility of the armor, it is even better than ordinary light armor.The set of armor that the boss took out was plain and simple in appearance, even if it did not reach the level of an "artifact", it could still be passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom.

"With this set of armor, I have more peace of mind. Haha!"

Tang Feng, who was in deep thought, heard his partner's comfortable and carefree laughter.
