The Journey of the Demon Hunter

The 2455th chapter feint attack

More Luen people rushed up the hillside and attacked the roadblocks without fear. Three more Rohan people were stabbed by a long spear that pierced through the gap in the shield. One was stabbed in the arm, and the other's wrist was almost broken. Only the fleshy tendons and the white bones exposed at the back were connected to the palm of the hand. , Clutching his forearm in pain, and screaming, there was another one who crashed into the guard holding the shield and died silently. The blood flowing out and the blood of the previous casualties formed a pool of blood behind the bunker.

The two militiamen on standby rushed up and dragged the wounded comrades to retreat to the top of the hillside.

The Heiman Temple is full of pungent **** smell, and more than 30 soldiers have been injured slightly or severely. Some people's breath has gradually weakened, Zelin left behind the diluted swallow potion. Maybe it can help some people, or maybe kill them directly. It's up to those dying to decide whether to drink this potion.

"Harda, step back to the next line of defense! Cover us!"

Polomo held up his sword and called out loudly: "The spearman retreats first, the guardian is behind!"

Halda raised his sword: "Divided into two rows, ready to shoot!"

For every other archer who had stood in a row, one soldier stepped back, and then lined up again. The first row of archers drew their bowstrings full, aiming in the direction Harda was facing. Archers in the second row put their arrows on the bowstrings, and the arrows hang down, waiting for orders.

Dense Ruen people crowded on the hillside, many arrows fell, or the corpses killed by spears rolled down the hillside, and stopped when they hit the rocks on both sides of the road, or fell directly from the cliffs on the outside of the mountain road. Going down, smashed heavily on the shield and the tip of the spear raised below.

When the guards who retreated step by step holding the tower shield stepped aside, eight Loen soldiers immediately climbed into the bunker, trying to catch up.

"Let the arrow!"

After a volley of fire, the first group of Luen people who climbed the roadblock fell in the middle without needing another order from Harda. The archer at the rear aimed at the sky, and the bowstring was pulled halfway and then released. The thrown arrows fell on those Luen people who had not had time to get past their companions. When they climbed up to the bunker with their shields again, the elves who had just shot in the first round had poured arrows on their heads again.

Covered by a shield, only three Loen soldiers fell this time.

"Back, Harda!"

Polomo, who ran back to the new bunker, supported the edge of the bunker with one hand, and one turned over the rock. Behind him, the guards who carried their shields behind them, with the help of the spearmen who retreated in advance, climbed over the rock and entered the new bunker. Line of defense. "Set up a shield, brothers, hold this place, and when the sun rises, we will celebrate the victory on the enemy's body!"

The elf archer immediately began to transfer, retreating to the new hillside, condescendingly attacking the enemies coming up from below. After destroying the first roadblock, Luen was motivated. But when a brand-new barricade full of spikes stood in front of them again, the Luen soldier who rushed forward couldn't help but back down a few steps. The elven archers and the guards of the Golden Palace ran quickly and entered the defensive position. Not long after, the Luen people who were still hesitating in front of the defense line were immediately baptized by the rain of arrows.

Everyone was crowded on the narrow mountain road, with the enemy in front and the soldiers pushing forward in the back. The Luen people in the front could only continue to advance toward the roadblock. The dead bodies were scattered on the mountain roads, and more bodies were piled up in front of the roadblocks.

"They broke through the third section of the mountain road." Eowyn frowned: "This is too fast."

"No, your Royal Highness, the initial offensive was so fierce, but they just broke through the first roadblock, and they paid so many casualties. Then their ability to attack the new roadblock will become weaker, so don’t worry about it. , Your Highness, we can hold on."

As he said, Zelin took off the Liannu behind him: "Please wait here, Your Highness, don't pour out the oil before I come back."

"What are you going to do, wizard?" Eowyn turned her head and looked at Zelin, who was walking towards the Griffin.

"Go and create some trouble for them." Alta Reall, who was already staying by the Griffin, saw Zelin coming, immediately turned over and jumped on the back of the behemoth, spread his legs and sat on the saddle. The Griffin spread its wings and seemed to be unhappy with the person who suddenly sat on its back: "I will be back soon."

After Zelin sat on the Griffin, the giant beast spread its wings and flew into the dark night sky.

"Where are you going to attack?" Altariel asked behind him. For some reason, now the Elven Ranger would sit behind every time: "The enemy's command?"

"I don't know where their commander is. Killing their commander will definitely create a lot of chaos, but when the Loenians show no signs of defeat, killing the commander may allow an adjutant to take over the army, and then Go on a more violent offensive." Zelin leaned forward and kept his balance during the Griffin's ascent: "We go back and go into the forest."

"Ignite the forest? Is this your plan?"

"In your heart, am I someone who burns cities and forests at every turn?" Zelin held the rein with one hand, and the crossbow with the other hand, and the index finger hooked the trigger: "This kind of thing is meaningless, Lu The benefactors are all gathered in the open space. The flame will only cut off the way for the Ruen people to escape, so that they can only attack the Black Man Temple to avoid the flame. Attack the soldiers behind them, no, not on the griffin, on them In the invisible darkness."

Under the cover of night, the Griffon bypassed the battlefield, flew into the woodland outside the Black Man Temple, and landed among the shadowy woods. Zelin could clearly see that at the edge of the forest, more Ruen people stood in a team, waiting for the order to attack the hillside. Due to the threat of archers, the Luen gathering place was about a hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain. The outermost infantry held a shield to guard against arrows that might fly on the hillside. The remaining infantry stayed at the edge of the forest to rest. It was far enough from the battlefield, and the Ruen people looked relaxed, and some even sat on the ground, waiting for the order to attack.

Ze Lin leaned against a tree and looked at the enemy outside, about 30 meters away from the nearest Luen.

Altariel looked at Zelin, tilted his head slightly. Zelin saw a little provocation in her eyes.

He nodded.

The elf ranger immediately bent her bow and set up arrows. When her arrow was aimed at the first enemy, the eight crossbow arrows had already been shot out. The four Loen soldiers standing on the edge of the forest had not had time to make a sound. Shot to the ground. The electric light burst, and the bright golden lightning leaped like a snake on the nearby soldiers who hadn't reacted. Some people fell to the ground and screamed out subconsciously in the stinging pain, and more people were killed instantly.

Alta Real's face was stern, and the corners of her mouth tightened.

"Opportunity."

"This is another kind of power, Ranger." Zelin snorted softly. He shook the crossbow and took out the crossbow bolt from his waist and put it into the runner again.

The elven ranger took the opportunity to shoot five arrows, each hitting the gap between the helmets of the five Loen soldiers. Only one soldier was not killed on the spot, but was shot in the eye, but also lost combat effectiveness.

"Your accuracy is still not enough."

The Luen people who realized that they had been attacked immediately grabbed their weapons, raised their shields, faced the forest, and yelled at each other in languages ​​that Zelin could not understand.

"They rushed in." Zelin didn't pay attention to Altariel's mockery: "Go back and kill them in the forest!"

When the Ruen people's offensive was blocked in front of the second roadblock, the news of an attacker in the rear forest also reached the ears of the Ruen army commander. The battle for barricades on the hillside has been steadily advancing. Although a great price has been paid and the casualties are serious, if this is the remaining soldiers of Rohan, then the battle will end at noon the next day. Rohan people are tough, but there is still a gap in numbers.

But what if this is not all of Rohan's remaining soldiers, but just a decoy?

No one knows what exactly attacked the soldiers in the dark. Perhaps in other places, there is still an army of Rohan hidden.

In the end, a team of two hundred people, holding a spear, cautiously entered the forest, searching for the shadows that attacked them.

The 2456th chapter blazing flames

In the Black Man Temple, the replaced soldiers were repaired inside.

The mountain road is narrow, so there is no need for too many manpower defenses. So Zelin ordered the two hundred infantrymen to be divided into three teams, each team of sixty men, one team to defend against roadblocks, one team as a reserve team just in case, and the remaining team as a replacement. The wounded and exhausted people retreated to the black barbarian shrine on the top of the mountain to recover their strength and bandage their wounds to ensure that their combat effectiveness would not decrease. The remaining twenty people were responsible for staying near the defense line and transporting the wounded to the Heiman Temple. Some of the wounded were seriously injured and had to rely on human help.

Holding the king flag, Eowyn stood on the edge of the open space outside the Black Man Temple, looking at the battlefield below.

The soldiers led by Polomo caused greater losses to the Ruen people outside the second line of defense. The first and second lines of defense were almost covered with killed corpses. Many Ruen people stepped on the corpses as a stepping stone. , Attacked the Rohan behind the bunker upwards.

Altarel squatted on the branch, and the light body of the elf made her stand on the branch effortlessly. The six Luen spears held their weapons and walked cautiously under the tree, staring at the surroundings vigilantly. The leading soldier waved his hands, yelled and gave orders. The forest is very large. Standing on the Black Man Temple, you can see this piece of woodland disappearing beyond the distant skyline.

Placing three arrows on the bowstring, Altarel aimed at the soldiers passing by, pulling the bowstring full.

Releasing their fingers, the three soldiers fell down with screams.

"There are enemies!"

To the Ranger's surprise, the Loenians did not look over their heads, but to the right.

The bushes were separated to both sides, and the figure of the demon hunter carried the ebony blade and walked towards the Luen soldiers step by step. There was blood remaining on the ebony blade, and the blood dripped down the tip of the blade to the ground. The three Luen men raised their spears and rushed towards the demon hunter from different directions. Upon seeing this, Altarel aimed at an enemy again. Before a pikeman rushed in front of Zelin, he fell forward and fell to the ground with an arrow stuck in his back.

The enemy on the left aimed at the demon hunter's chest, stab a blow with all his strength, anger and fear remained in his wide-open eyes. Zelin took a step behind, the ebony blade flashed in the air, the spear of the spear was hit, and fell to the ground after breaking, leaving only a neat cut. The remaining long rod pierced the side of the demon hunter's shoulder, and Zelin bent down and held the hilt with both hands. Taking advantage of the enemy's full thrust and losing his balance, he placed the sword blade horizontally and stroked his abdomen with the help of the opponent's inertia.

The moment he passed by the demon hunter, the blood arrow sprayed onto the tree trunk aside. Luen opened his eyes and covered his abdomen with his hands, but his fingers could no longer prevent blood and broken intestines from being squeezed out of the wound. He staggered forward a few steps, threw himself straight forward, fell into the weeds, and quickly formed a pool of blood under him.

Zelin raised his weapon and prepared to face the second enemy, only to find that there was no one standing in front of him.

"Thirty-seven." Altarel leaped from the canopy and landed steadily on the ground: "How about you?"

"Twenty-five." Zelin said calmly, "It's time to go."

"There are more than a hundred enemies here." The elf ranger spread his hands: "We have just solved a quarter."
