Similar to what the Great Swordsmen had perceived and expected before, in this windy and snowy dusk, the enemies who came to the northern town of Pieta, those awakened monsters, no matter in terms of the quality of the demonic energy, The quantity, intensity or anything else was far beyond their imagination.
A total of twenty-seven!
That's right!
There are twenty-seven awakened beings of the same color, not ordinary monsters!
That number is actually three more than the total number of twenty-four great swordsmen gathered in the small town of Pieta?
You know, ordinary awakened people, in a one-on-one situation, most of the twenty-four swords present will only be slaughtered!
Therefore, there is no doubt that that is a number that is huge enough to make the swordsmen present feel desperate, and it is a number that cannot be easily won!
And this once again proves how correct and wise the order given by Miliya, the commander of the Great Sword, to evacuate all the residents in the town of Pieta before sunset was!
But that's no use!
Because, although the residents of the small town no longer have to worry about being killed by the awakened ones or other demons or being poisoned by battles, the swordsmen still need to face those powerful and terrifying enemies!
Moreover, the key is that the power gap between each other and the balance of victory and defeat will not change due to any decisions or orders.
What is coming is bound to be a disparity war that no one thinks the great swords can win, and the twenty-four great swordsmen who can survive in the end will most likely be a giveaway. The heartache of the unknown number.
but……
With the arrival of those awakened monsters and the official start of the battle, although all the swordsmen knew their final possible ending in advance, those warriors, including Miria, Claire, Jane Including Flora and the others whom Anne had just met, none of them flinched, but resolutely faced them with their swords.
then!
In this way, when the sky was getting dark, when the wind and snow were still howling, and when the weather became more and more severe, in the small town of Pieta, under the command and leadership of the great sword Miria, including her The twenty-four female warriors with great swords officially began to fight against the tide of awakened monsters.
However, there are a large number of those awakened monsters. Although they have different shapes and sizes, they are still much stronger than the slim and beautiful swordsmen. Therefore, their towering figures are like dark waves in the night. It rushed towards the swordsmen's defense line like a wave, and instantly submerged this once peaceful northern town.
soon!
Under the night, screams, wails, roars, the clash of weapons, and the clear shouts of the female warriors with big swords were intertwined and mixed together.
Unfortunately, what frightens the swordsmen is that the battle situation is not optimistic for them!
even……
Can it be said to be a one-sided situation?
Isn’t this?
"!!"
Not long after the war started, in a corner of the town, Flora, the beautiful swordsman with a soft voice, saw a soldier and a fellow swordsman being surrounded by several awakened ones and torn in half in a few blows. The bright red blood was directly sprinkled all over the wall. The red blood was mixed with the white snowflakes, and coupled with the miserable corpse of the companion who refused to die, it looked particularly shocking.
"Everyone, be careful!"
"Don't fight them!"
Seeing this, Flora naturally rushed forward to reinforce those who were still alive, and was ready to give orders to the two swordsmen who were blinded by hatred and wanted to step forward to fight the awakened monsters:
"quick!"
"Move the position first!"
Although she had just seen it with splitting eyes and wanted to go forward and kill those monsters directly, she still maintained her rationality and knew that if the numbers were unequal, she would probably not be the opponent. She still gave a loud reminder to the swordsmen who wanted to rush forward in time and stopped them.
"!?"
Unfortunately, before they could move, another awakened monster suddenly appeared on the street corner behind them with malicious intentions.
"Damn it!"
"quick!"
"Formation!"
Seeing this, she had to curse secretly, then stared closely at the demon behind her, and tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.
Because, they were in trouble. Not long after the war started, they were surrounded by several awakened ones?
"!!"
"defense!"
"defense!!"
The two soldiers behind her also discovered the enemy in the rear. With no way to escape, they could only subconsciously gather together and cooperate with Flora to the greatest extent, and tried to fight back-to-back. To resist the front and rear siege of the awakened demons from two directions.
"superior!"
"You guys hold on!!"
Following Flora's scolding, before the awakened ones could surround them, the swordsmen tacitly cooperated and rushed forward to fight the awakened ones in front, while Flora counterattacked those who blocked their retreat. That one wanted to rush out of the siege.
then!
As the sword light flashed, accompanied by the roars of the awakened monsters and the wild shouts and fighting sounds of the sword warriors, the battle situation in this corner of the town suddenly became anxious and critical.
But it's no use!
Those are not ordinary monsters, there are too many powerful awakened monsters...
Therefore, when the quantity, quality, size, strength, etc. are all far superior, there is obviously not much suspense about the outcome.
soon!
As the fierce fight continued, another beautiful female warrior with short hair screamed and covered her belly and fell to the ground. Flora, who was still fighting with the demon behind, looked out of the corner of her eye and realized that, The other party's intestines and some objects inside were hooked out by the demon's claws?
And that kind of injury is obviously hopeless.
"!!"
as expected!
The next second, before the heavily injured sword could continue to cry out, a huge demon stepped forward and flattened her chest with one foot, causing her golden eyes to instantly widen. Blood burst out from Yuanpin, then his head tilted, and he became motionless.
"Flora!"
"I!"
"I can't hold on anymore..."
As people died in battle, the defense of the big sword in front instantly became more precarious. If it were not blocked by the houses on both sides of the street, she would only have to block one awakened person for the time being. The monsters rushed up, fearing that she would have followed in the footsteps of her companion just now.
So, she had to speak out and remind Flora behind her to hurry up.
"..."
pity!
Although Flora is known as the "Wind-Severing Flora", her sword speed is one of the fastest among the warriors of the organization, but unfortunately: the Awakener behind her is a defensive monster. , her whole body is covered with tough cuticle armor, and there seems to be no flaw in her body, so that although her sword speed is fast, except for cutting white marks on the opponent's body, there is nothing usefulness.
At this time, the situation of the big sword behind her was already in danger, and it was about to be defeated and dismembered by the cruel awakener demon!
"!!"
"Flora!"
Fortunately, at this critical moment, Miriya appeared.
She took the lead and charged over with Claire, Jane and several other sword warriors.
They were all wearing silver armor and blond hair and holding big swords. Like a silver torrent in the darkness, they launched an attack with extremely violent energy towards the awakened demons who were fighting against Flora.
Under the surprise attack of NO.9 Jane's 'spiral sword' which had been prepared for a long time, they quickly killed the awakened one that was caught off guard, and then forced back the rest after cutting off the opponent's head. Those few awakened beings made them afraid of the restrictions of the terrain and did not dare to move forward.
"Now!"
"withdraw!"
"Use the terrain to guerrilla!"
"remember!"
"Try not to confront them head-on!!"
Taking advantage of the hesitation of those monsters and waiting for support, although she was very sad that two soldiers were killed in this alley, Miria made a prompt decision and gave an order for the soldiers to turn around. Following her, taking advantage of her speed and small size, she quickly disappeared into the complicated streets and alleys of Pietta and the flying snow in the sky through the wind and snow, and her shadow disappeared in an instant.
And that situation naturally shocked those awakened monsters who were still hesitating whether to fight or not.
Then, they naturally roared and cursed and came forward, and like a vicious bulldozer, they broke through the houses, overturned the roofs or knocked down the walls, and then strode towards the direction where the swordsmen retreated. , and successfully created a large area of broken eaves and broken walls behind him.
Fortunately, Miria and the others seemed to have predicted their reaction. Therefore, using the wind, snow and streets as cover, they easily got rid of the pursuit of those monsters and broke into pieces. , continuing to wander in the small town of Pieta in a team of two people, preparing to wait for opportunities and kill those lone awakened ones.
At this time, the battle has just begun.
Although Miliya and others were well prepared for the strength of the enemy and the cruelty of the battle, and had made plans to use guerrillas and locally superior forces to eliminate the exaggerated numbers of enemies one by one, those awakened ones were not, after all, A group of fools, they soon became cunning and adjusted their tactics after losing two or three fools who entered the battlefield.
Immediately afterwards, when the awakened monsters deliberately slowed down the rhythm and speed of their attacks, and still hugged each other and tried to stay as close as possible so that they could take care of each other, stalemates and melees between the two sides were of course inevitable.
then!
In the small town of Pieta under the snowy night, as the awakened monsters adjusted their tactics, the situation of the battle quickly reversed.
Those awakened monsters with different shapes, some like giant beasts, some with wings, and some like deformed from stones and trees, began to rely on their large size, large number and strength advantages. Rampage in the town, destroying the streets and buildings as much as possible, trying to force the sword warriors who sometimes disappear, sometimes appear and fight back, and at the same time threaten them towards the square in the middle of the town, trying to do everything possible May reduce their space for movement.
However, the great swords did not want to sit back and wait for death!
They still used their superb sword skills and the cooperation of the team to sneak attacks and wander among the ruins and alleys, launching surprise attacks on the lone awakened ones and trying to severely injure or even kill them one by one.
Although, their results were not ideal?
Anyway!
As time went by, the situation quickly became more and more tense.
In the chaos, the swordsmen found that more and more warriors fell down or were injured and lost their fighting ability. Facing the large number of enemies, especially the terrifying enemies of the awakened ones who were countless times stronger than the demons, they In the end, he still fell into a desperate situation that he was tired of coping with.
Fortunately, as the commander, Miriya still maintains a clear head.
She carefully observed and watched the situation on the battlefield, commanded and led a group of elite sword warriors to carry out tactical penetration, assault and encirclement, severely injuring the lone enemies one by one, and even managed to kill one by luck. At the same time, we also rescued some soldiers who accidentally fell into siege or desperate situation.
But that's no use!
This will be a difficult and protracted battle that will probably last a whole night or even longer.
Because she knows very clearly that only by killing the enemy as much as possible and protecting herself and the soldiers to the greatest extent, can they have a ten thousandth chance of winning and survive!
However……
But the battle didn't always go according to her plan.
Although the battle is far from the most intense and tragic moment; although the swordsmen are still waving the sword in their hands, using strong teamwork and guerrilla skills to fight against the enemy, and flying in the dark night with their fast figures. They were moving around and continuing to fight in the complex battlefield. However, in the battle so far, only three or four monsters were definitely killed by the soldiers, and the number of dead sword warriors was at least five to six. , and there are still more injured who have lost the ability to move or whose combat effectiveness has been severely limited.
According to this trend, with the terrifying recovery, resistance and regeneration abilities of those awakened monsters, coupled with their already superior numbers, it won't be long before the balance of victory will completely tip to the other side.
After all, there are a total of twenty-seven awakened monsters, and there may be less than half of the great sword warriors still standing and fighting.
In the current situation where the two sides have been fighting for less than half an hour, the battle situation has reached such a bad level. Although they don't want to admit it, they really seem to have no hope of winning at all. That is enough to make all the soldiers feel Frustrating fact.
However!
At this tense moment, while the swordsmen commanded by Miria were still gritting their teeth and insisting on fighting for that glimmer of hope, the battle situation suddenly changed that they did not expect.
I don’t know why, but the awakened monsters who had gradually gained the upper hand suddenly began to retreat. And that sudden situation naturally made Miria, Claire, Flora and others prepare to continue fighting. The soldiers felt confused and at a loss, and then jumped out of their hiding places.
"what happened?"
"Why did they retreat!?"
Seeing this, a soldier asked in surprise.
"careful!"
"This is so abnormal."
Another warrior said with a frown.
After all, according to the previous trend, although the opponent will definitely pay a heavy price, there is not much suspense about annihilating these warriors. But now they suddenly retreat. If there is no reason, then absolutely no one will believable!
Otherwise!
Just when the swordsmen were whispering and speculating and looking at each other...
Sudden!
First, there were waves of unspeakably powerful and terrifying demonic energy, and then...
Uh-huh! !
I saw a dark shadow flashing past in the snowy night.
then!
A beautiful woman with a long ponytail standing slightly closer to the front was cut into three upper, middle and lower parts at the waist in an instant?
"..."
Then, she slumped down on the snow with her silver eyes wide open, and the scarlet blood spilled all over the ground, which was extremely dazzling even in the dark night.
There is no doubt that it was a demon that was more powerful and stronger than the awakened ones who just retreated!
Anyway!
In the dark night, everyone could not see the specific appearance of the other party. They could only vaguely see that the other party looked like a human-shaped lion. However, he was taller and stronger than the tallest sword, and his speed was astonishingly fast. !
"!!"
"Beronica!!"
After a while, after confirming the situation, a certain female swordsman who was familiar with the female swordsman who was killed instantly and was holding two swords, of course, exclaimed and yelled heartbreakingly and somewhat unbelievably. .
pity!
Her shouting was of no use!
On the contrary, her voice instantly attracted the attention of the awakened person who exuded a terrifying aura and looked like a human-shaped lion.
"careful!"
"Undine!"
"Run away!!"
The next second, Flora made a decisive move and rushed towards the dual-wielding sword Undine who was shouting and wanted to attack the monster with two swords, hoping to rush for rescue.
But it's no use!
Before she and more warriors could rush over, Undine, who was dual-wielding swords, was instantly rushed to the front by the monster that moved quickly again and cut off both hands!
Then, at the moment when the swords and arms in Undine's hands slipped quietly, he added a claw again, and then cut Undine's chest diagonally into two pieces from the shoulders to the chest and abdomen, leaving only one Neng's eyes widened, and together with the bursting blood, intestines, and heart that became two halves, he fell slumped on the snow without saying a word.
"!!"
"monster!"
"go to hell!!"
At this time, a big sword took advantage of the monster's back to him and rushed forward at some point. The moment Undine fell to the ground, he roared and slashed at the monster's neck with a sword.
"!!"
pity!
All she hit was an afterimage.
Then, before she could recover from her shock and react, the monster awakener in the shape of a human lion appeared behind her again and stretched out his hand to pull out the sword of the one who was still trying to search for the enemy. The heart was taken out along with some fragments.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Upon seeing this, he was naturally horrified when he saw that the terrifying enemy had just come out and instantly and casually wiped out three of his own warriors, including a captain. The remaining less than ten swordsmen were still intact. He stood there in disbelief and dumbfounded, and suddenly became a little overwhelmed, and those who originally wanted to go forward and fight desperately had to stop.
"Damn it!"
"It's the 'Silver-Eyed Lion' Ricardo!"
"quick!"
"Everyone gather!"
"Don't give him every chance to defeat you!!"
fortunately!
At this time, Miria finally lived up to her name as a commander. She ordered the remaining swordsmen on the spot not to be impulsive and to gather towards her, planning to use their numerical advantage and formation to fight against the legendary swordsman. Horrible male awakening confrontation.
And now, she has roughly understood why the large group of twenty-three awakened ones left just now had to retreat.
It turns out that this is the reason why this terrible enemy in front of us wants to take action himself?
Moreover, she seemed to have noticed that the other party seemed to want to reduce casualties and then wipe out all their warriors with just its own strength?
so!
The only thing she can do now is to gather all the warriors together and see if they can stop or defeat the opponent with the power of the less than ten remaining swordsmen. If not, she is afraid that they and those who have not been injured will suffer. The dead swordsmen are really going to die in the small town of Pieta tonight.
"oh?"
After seeing Miria's order, the remaining female swordsmen all gathered around each other and quickly formed a large formation. The awakened one resembled a human-shaped lion, and the one known as the 'Silver-Eyed Lion King' Only then did Ricarudo throw aside the bloody internal organs of the female sword he was holding in his claws, and said with a ferocious smile.
"Gather a group of ants..."
"What's the use?"
Under normal circumstances, awakened people like them obviously like to eat human internal organs. However, the Great Swordsmen are obviously not pure humans, so they will naturally not be interested in those scraps.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Miria, Flora and other great swordsmen did not respond, but formed a semicircular formation and began to silently confront each other in the square, ready to attack at any time or to coordinate with their partners at any time.
"Hmph!"
It's a pity that the so-called 'Silver-Eyed Lion King' Ricarudo still didn't take Miria and the others seriously.
When he saw that the big swords didn't answer, he wasn't angry. He just looked at Miria, Flora, Claire, Jane and other big swords who survived and could still fight with cruel eyes. It seemed that their combat effectiveness was not very weak. They were roaming around, obviously trying to pick the next target to attack and kill.
"So……"
"Which one should I start with?"
The fate of the big swords in front of him seemed to Ricarudo to be doomed.
Now, all he needs to do is to slowly enjoy the desperate struggles of his prey before death and the pleasure he gets from hunting them with his own hands.
"So……"
Soon, it selected a target that might pose a threat to him and was ready to take action.
"Hello!"
()
at this time!
Surprisingly, just when the Silver-Eyed Lion King Riccardo was about to take action and send one or two more swords to the west, a clear and milky childish voice suddenly stopped him from taking action. The birthplace stopped.
"you……"
(っ-)
"You guys, you were noisy at noon, and now you are noisy again, noisy during the day, noisy at night, what on earth do you want to do, why don't you let people sleep in?!"
(﹏、)
Just like that, a sleepy little girl who was rubbing her eyes and holding a stuffed bear toy walked out of the relatively intact hotel next to her. She yelled angrily and was immediately attracted to attracted the attention of everyone present.
Of course, it also includes the so-called 'Silver-Eyed Lion' Riccardo.
