On the roof of a building in the atrium of Bein Fortress, two figures were looking down.
The strong wind carried the sand and the two of them couldn't help pulling up their hoods. The man on the left touched the other man with his elbow and pointed forward: "Look over there." In the direction he pointed, faintly visible in the strong wind, a group of knights were advancing along the corridor of the courtyard, converging towards the north. ——There is the main body of the fortress, the living place of Nurman-Yig-Heraman-Elmoiben-Bain Fort.
"What are they doing?"
"It can't be that we were exposed," another person pulled on the brim of his hat and looked at this scene with some strangeness. "Otherwise they should come this way."
The person in front asked uncertainly: "Then the president asked us to explore the other party's movements. This should be regarded as something serious, right?"
"This..." The other person hesitated for a moment. The movement was loud, but it didn't seem like it was coming towards them. Or rather, it is beneficial to their actions.
But these knights would not be transferred for no reason. A trace of doubt flashed in his mind - what was happening in Beinburg at this moment?
And during this hesitation, a bright light suddenly flashed behind the wind and sand ahead.
Bright light burst out from Bein Castle, mixed with a rising flame. As the two people looked at each other in stunned silence, the flames burst out from under the cracked wall, and finally turned into a roar of thunder, falling down together with countless bricks and stones. After the explosion, a huge hole suddenly appeared on the outer wall of Beinburg.
The two of them stared blankly at this scene. After a while, the last person's throat moved, and then he said with difficulty to his companion: "Hurry up and inform the president..."
…
Fang Plover was standing on the edge of the cave entrance, glancing out.
The room was already in a mess, and the wind and sand were pouring in from the outside, sweeping away the diffuse smoke and dust. There were bursts of noise outside, and many knights were approaching in this direction. He couldn't understand the local dialect, but he could guess the meaning: Don't let him escape from here. A kind of.
"They've set up a siege outside, Mr. Knight."
"The exits to the east and south are heavily guarded."
Miss Tata's voice is as calm as ever. She understands tens of thousands of languages - including the vocalizations of insects. The dialect of Istania is naturally not difficult for Miss Dragon Soul.
And Nini can only say: "Papa!"
Fang Plover nodded.
He glanced at the Bein knights maneuvering in the wind and sand, couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, and then quietly walked away and turned to another direction.
More knights were surrounding him from the second floor. Everyone thought he would escape from here, but he quietly walked to a room at the end of the corridor, opened the door there, and then closed it behind his back. At that place, A powerful angel is standing in front of the bookshelf holding a sword. He slowly raised his right hand and commanded his construct to carve a magic circle on the ground.
Rapid footsteps were passing outside the door and heading towards the other end of the corridor.
Fang Plover leaned against the door, calmly and calmly, as if he didn't hear the sound behind him and was not distracted. The capable angel stood opposite him, carving out concentric circles on the ground stroke by stroke.
Not long after, the voice of questioning came from a distance, and the knights obviously realized that there was no one there.
But Fang Plover didn't even raise his eyebrows. In his silent gaze, the last stroke of the magic circle was completed.
On the wooden floor, complex symbols are crisscrossed.
He leaned down, placed his hand on the center of the magic circle, and began to inject magic power. Several concentric circles flashed slightly, and then dimmed again - the floor seemed to have not changed at all. But this is because directly changing the physical structure of the stone wall like he did on the fourth floor consumes too much magic power. He has no reason and no need now, so he can just embrittle the material.
He retracted his hand and ordered the capable angel to strike at the magic circle. The floor cracked and collapsed.
Fang Yu was not sure whether the knight over there could detect the movement here, but he did not hesitate and jumped down.
There was an empty room below. After landing, he almost immediately patted himself and got up from the ground. Then he looked up and looked ahead. There was a window leading to the outside world not far away. Fang Plover immediately walked over and opened the window - a gust of wind and sand poured in from the outside. He shrunk his neck, then quickly climbed out of the window, then turned around and turned the angel inside into a stream of light, which was collected into the information crystal.
Fang Plover then looked back. This direction was exactly opposite to the hole he had made before. Almost no knights paid attention to this direction. Not far away was a corridor, through which he could enter the atrium - he was already quite familiar with the terrain of the courtyard.
But there are still troubles behind him.
A roar came from the second floor: "He's over here!"
Fang Plover looked back and saw a knight's figure appearing behind a window on the second floor. The knight picked up a crossbow and shot an arrow at him. He did not dodge, but the magic crossbow bolt was blown to one side by the wind and hit a tree not far away. The knights in the distance heard the shout and gathered around in this direction.
Fang Plover secretly screamed something bad and immediately ran away towards the corridor.
But after leaving Beinburg and entering the atrium area, he found that he had underestimated the severity of the situation.
Judging from the information fed back from the Clockwork Fairy, many knights were coming in this direction. They were originally attracted by the explosion, but now they should have learned the origin of the matter.
The courtyard was full of these Bein knights. They blocked every exit below and began to encircle them in this direction. These knights ranged from a team of five to a team of several.
Of course, sometimes when being closely pursued, Fang Plover would also use the convenience of information to hide nearby and let the knight pass first. Since there was a clockwork goblin scouting the path, he could always predict the enemy plane first. The enemy seemed to have no combat craftsmen - but even if they did, he wasn't worried.
About halfway through the atrium, he once again hid in the darkness and observed these desert knights wearing turbans and robes through the sight of the clockwork goblins. The opponent has a cyan wolf eagle tattoo on his arm, and the leader also has a poisonous scorpion on his left arm. There is at least one such poisonous scorpion knight in every team of knights.
According to Wu Xiaopang, the knights with the Wolf Eagle Tattoo are at level 20, and the levels of these leading knights will only be higher.
He could not face these knights no matter what.
He could barely handle three or five of them, but it was already difficult to get away, let alone win.
But he can't always let the opponent go first. The more he hides, the more knights will get in front of him, and the road behind him will only become more and more difficult.
And once the other party realizes that he has gone too far, he will go back and screen again, and he will be much more careful. Although the atrium is large, it is just a part of a fortress. In addition to a large number of knights, the opponent also has a larger number of guards. Although the guards couldn't stop him, they were still like walking alarms.
Too many alarms can be a headache.
He waited for a group of knights not far away to pass by before he moved forward again. In order to prevent the other party from finding out that they had overtaken him and turned back, he once again changed his route. But not long after walking, there were guards guarding the gate in front of them. Although there were not many people on the other side, there were still several "Eye of Revealing" knights standing in the courtyard in the other direction.
These opponents are equally difficult.
Fang Yu thought for a moment and set up a mirror in place.
It didn't take long for the guard at the door to see a black shadow flash past in front of him. Under the current situation, he immediately shouted nervously: "There is someone over there!"
The guard's cry immediately attracted the attention of the knights guarding the palace in the courtyard. They ran over from a distance and asked, "What's going on?"
"Someone passed over there!" the guard gestured.
The knights guarding the temple did not doubt that he was there and chased him in that direction.
As soon as they took off, a shadow flew from above and dropped several suspended bombs.
After a flash of light, the guards immediately froze on the spot. Fang Plover and his Angel Angel immediately flashed over. The Angel Angel attacked the two guards one by one with one sword, and Fang Plot also fired a flying fist, knocking the last guard away. He hit the doorpost, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. But Fang Yu had no time to worry about so much, and the mirror imager could not be recovered, so he could only break out with the capable angel.
After passing through the door, Fang Plover was already quite familiar with the road ahead. He walked back and forth several times, and the outer area of the fortress was already in sight.
But Fang Yu suddenly stopped suddenly, pulled back and hid in the shadows, and then a silver light flew from that direction and fell into his hands. Only a moment later, a group of more than 20 Bein knights hurriedly came from the front, crossed his direction, and ran to the other end.
Fang Plover waited for a while before walking out of the shadows. Looking at the direction in which the Bein Knight left, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He looked at the 'Wasp-I' in his hand. Fortunately, there was a clockwork fairy. This was the first time he was almost discovered. But this is already the last available clockwork fairy. Using a flexible structure in the wind and sand will cause too much damage.
Fortunately, it's not impossible to repair if there is sand in it, I just don't have the time right now.
But from now on, he has to rely on himself.
To be honest, Fang Yu was not used to this kind of action without a 'view advantage', which made him feel uneasy as he was walking in total darkness. He even made a rare prayer to the God of Luck, hoping that the other party would bring him good luck, but he didn't know if this temporary prayer would have any effect. Fang Yu thought for a moment and prayed a few more words to the forest lady Amaya.
After all, I have 'met' this goddess before, so the other party will at least give her some face, right?
There is also Ms. Luo Man. Generally speaking, as long as you give money, you can seek this lady's asylum, so Fang Yu promised that if he was lucky enough not to run into an enemy, he would go to this lady's business temple to donate. Although this sounds a bit ridiculous, but since it is the patron of business, there should be a concept of 'credit', right?
All in all, Fang Plover asked for help from all the gods he could think of.
I don't know if the gods heard this trivial prayer, but if they did - they would probably want to drag this hypocrite out and beat him to death.
In fact, Fang Yu never believed in such illusory things as luck, but in this current situation, it was really unthinkable.
But he had just walked out and took a few steps forward when he suddenly felt something was not quite right. He was slightly startled, stopped, turned around, and saw a small skunk-like animal following him in the corridor, following suit. When he stopped, the latter raised his head and looked at him with eyes like black beans.
The little thing raised its tail and even blinked its eyes.
But Fang Plover’s hair stood on end.
Of course, this thing is not a small animal, and there is no such thing in the desert. It is a familiar - or a familiar. This thing is somewhat similar to a magic messenger, but more advanced than that. It has many abilities, including but not limited to sending letters, detecting magic, and even providing alertness to its owner, etc.
Just like this moment——
The 'skunk' suddenly squeaked, turned around and ran away.
Fang Plover didn't even have time for the capable angel to take action, because the thing simply turned into a line of smoke and went directly into the wall, then reappeared in the building there, looked back at him, and jumped. gone. Seeing this scene, Fang Yu knew that he was in big trouble. The magic pet could not move too far away from its master, which meant that the mystic who controlled it was nearby.
Forget it, after all, he has not been discovered by knights before. If he finds a place to hide, the other party may not be able to find him for a while. But the person who owns a magic pet is a mystic. Fang Plover knows very well what the latter is good at. In fact, this thought had just flashed through his mind when a faint light flashed in the courtyard not far away, and a purple eye appeared in that place.
Then looked straight at him.
The spells of the mystics were greatly disturbed in this dust storm, but this does not mean that they cannot cast spells. It is just that the casting distance and accuracy will be greatly suppressed. And the fact that the other party reacted so quickly obviously meant that the mystic might be nearby.
But the idea of finding the other party and killing him was something that Fang Plover never even thought about.
Because when he looked back, the group of knights who had left before had now appeared at the other end of the corridor. The other party obviously noticed him immediately, and they all pulled out their scimitars and roared and rushed in this direction.
Without thinking, Fang Pliant threw several golden lights behind him. An explosion of light immediately blocked the path forward of the knights. He put away the efreeti and immediately ran forward, but this time was different from before. The purple eye in mid-air was always following him closely behind.
Not long after, he heard chaotic footsteps coming from all directions - obviously not only the knights, but also the guards of Bein Fortress got the news and surrounded them in this direction. Fang Plover gritted his teeth. At this time, he really wanted to catch the mystic and kill him first. Looking at the distance between the eye and him - the other party had obviously been following him.
But now he no longer has the Clockwork Fairy, and there is nothing he can do to find him.
Fang Yu couldn't help but think a little frustrated - it seems that the business goddess is not in favor of "credit" - but this is too unlucky. She was already almost to the outer area, but she actually came out at this time. Such a flaw.
Suddenly a figure flashed in front, and another group of knights appeared in that direction. Judging from the appearance of each other, they were not the same team as the pursuers behind them, which meant that more enemies had arrived at this place. Fang Yu's heart sank and he had no intention of fighting with the opponent. He immediately turned around and ran in the other direction.
But before he had even taken two steps, another group of guards appeared at the other end of the corridor and blocked the front.
Fang Yu bravely threw a few fire giants forward, blocking the opponent's field of vision first - he was blocked in this place from both ends, and there was no other way to escape, so he had to throw a fourth fire giant. Ling, blasted open the wall of the building on one side and got in from there. Fortunately, there was a road inside. Amidst the smoke and dust, he saw that the door of the room was open in the opposite direction. He couldn't help but feel happy, rushed over and pushed the door open.
Just when the door was opened, he saw a group of temple knights standing in front of him, the same group of people he had led away earlier. The other party was slightly startled when he saw him breaking through the door.
Fang Plover secretly screamed bad luck and wanted to turn back, but the guards had already appeared at the entrance of the cave in that direction.
At this time, the knights guarding the temple in front finally reacted, drew their weapons, and surrounded them in this direction.
Fang Yu held the last efreet in his hand, and his palms were already full of sweat - the efreet could no longer cause much damage at this level, or if used intensively, it could cause damage to the opponent by destroying the environment. Some obstacles. But one fire giant is not enough anyway.
But at this moment, if there is not enough, he has no choice but to fight. There is only one Archangel left, and the remaining ones are Orphen's Gemini and Siren configurations. These things are of no help in solving the current predicament.
Fang Yuan's heart crossed, and he threw out the efreet in his hand, and in the light of the explosion, he also threw out several Lurker Ts-1 models - these things cannot be taken back, it is equivalent to giving them away in vain. , although the situation was extremely urgent, this scene still made Fang Yu's heart bleed involuntarily. Because even if he is thrown out, there is no guarantee that he will be able to escape successfully.
Amidst the fire and smoke, the movement of the knight guard was not greatly hindered, because the place was so big, and the other party knew where he was even with his eyes closed. However, a few knights stepped on Ts-1's gravity trap, and their movements were slightly stagnant, finally giving him a chance to slip through the gap caused by the inconsistent movements of the opponent.
But before he had time to rejoice, a scimitar suddenly came out of the smoke. Fang Plover was caught off guard and was almost hit by a slash. At the critical moment, he was able to take a step back to avoid the knife, but he almost lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.
The owner of the scimitar broke out of the fog and turned out to be a knight guarding the temple.
Fang Yu's heart sank infinitely when he saw this scene. It's not that he is not the opponent of the Temple Knight. If he releases the Orphen Twins, he will still be able to fight. But the problem is, there are pursuers in front and interceptors in the back. If he delays here for a moment, he may be surrounded by many enemies.
Thinking of this, he simply stopped.
Then methodically recover the thrown lurkers one by one - since we are going to hang them here anyway, we might as well consider where to resurrect and the situation we will face after resurrection. And before that, just recover as much loss as you can - he doesn't plan to summon the Orphen Twins anymore, lest they can't be recovered, wouldn't it be a loss of blood?
He even digitized the reinforced gloves back to prevent them from falling when he died.
In view of the previous unreliability of the Business Goddess, he could not be resurrected in Ms. Roman's temple.
And just when Fang Yu was about to close his eyes and draw his neck to kill, he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from a distance.
The sound moved from far away to near at a very fast speed, and was close in the blink of an eye. Then he saw the temple guard in front of him tilted his body, and a trembling arrow went directly through the gap in the armor under the opponent's robe and hit his chest. Even with the huge force, the knight flew out and disappeared in the smoke.
Fang Yu looked at this scene with a little shock.
Then he heard two more strings ringing, and two more feather arrows flew towards him, and two knights guarding the palace from a little further away also flew out one after the other.
At this time, Fang Plover finally saw clearly the direction in which the arrow was flying, and couldn't help but turn his head that way. There was only the howling wind above the courtyard, and the sand and dust covered everything. He didn't know who it was that could actually fly in this weather. Shoot an arrow this far. In fact, it was impossible for him to even see clearly what was in that direction. How did the other party see the situation here?
Fang Yu was filled with confusion, but his reaction was not slow. As soon as several knights fell to the ground, he immediately understood that this was the perfect opportunity for him to escape from this place.
