However, as soon as Mr. Federo said these words, the deputy captain of the guard at the side felt bad and quickly stepped forward to cover his mouth; but it was still a step too late. Everyone present couldn't help but startled when they heard this, and immediately formed a large circle around Mr. Federo, scrambling to retreat.
Then, under the fierce look of the deputy captain, several personal guards immediately drew their swords, trying to control everyone on the scene. Unexpectedly, the slaves and musicians reacted faster, and they immediately rushed out and ran away, and at the same time they shouted:
"God be with you!" "Devil" "Devil" "Don't come near me!" And the choir boy who was usually very close to Mr. Federo was so frightened that he rolled and crawled out of the water all over the ground. ; However, he suddenly stepped away from the window and fell down with a scream.
This scene stimulated others even more. Even the bewildered garrison soldiers could not help but draw their weapons with vigilance and vigilance, and quickly fled away from the tower as if they were escaping from the plague; in the end, only a dozen personal guards remained with Master Federo. , follower.
After all, the vast majority of people in this era are devout to God and have been deeply influenced by the church since childhood; they are full of deep hatred and common hatred for those legendary non-human beings; even nobles who are closely related to the underground world have never He has not publicly admitted to having an affair with her.
"You are indeed my best partners and most loyal subordinates. As long as you can return to the city, I will definitely let my father reward you and your family well." He couldn't help but keep promising and swearing incoherently: "The title, You can choose official positions and territories at your choice."
However, facing Master Federo, who was chattering like a frightened woman, the deputy of the Guards smiled bitterly. Because, in the end, these people who were able to stay were basically from authentic local nobles. It can be said that all their families and properties stayed in Dijon.
Therefore, once they abandon Young Master Federo and flee back, they are afraid that they and their family will have to face the thunderous wrath from Prince Kongtai. This head of the royal branch, known as the "Defender", is not No royal party members who were also nobles were liquidated and executed.
However, at the next moment, the roar of the rotating shaft came from below the city fort, interrupting their reverie about the gains and losses; the deputy of the Guards even changed his face and said: "No, I'm afraid someone wants to open the door and surrender. We must try to find a way out from the other side of the castle immediately."
After a while, Master Federo understood what the so-called way out was. He was tied up on a rope by everyone's hands and feet, and he couldn't help shouting. He slowly slid down from the high wall at the other end of the city fort; several people were already landing below. Respond.
The next moment, these followers who had landed on the ground and were waiting were suddenly knocked down and knocked to the ground by attackers who emerged from the tall grass; then one of them raised his crossbow without hesitation and fired. Kill the other descending follower and pull the rope down.
Then the leading attacker walked up to Master Federo, who was already lying on the ground, but even the silver-decorated sword in his hand was trembling and unable to be pulled out: "It turns out that the things in the rumors are all true. Yes, you have been raising aliens and killing your own subjects."
"It's ridiculous that I once swore with all my heart to join the prince's army in order to protect my father and mother in my hometown." The man gritted his teeth and said in a hateful voice: "You know, my sister, my mother, and my nephew Children, they all disappeared one after another in alien attacks."
Only then did Master Federo vaguely recognize the other person. He seemed to be one of the garrison sergeants in the fortress. He usually didn't even have the chance to talk to him; but he could only barely tremble and say: "You... You...can't hurt me, you will pay a heavy price."
"Of course I won't hurt you easily." However, the garrison sergeant sneered: "I will give you as a gift to those southerners, and then join them; and lead them back to my hometown, Let’s eradicate all those damn monsters together.”
At the same time, amidst the continuous tremors of the earth, the seemingly slow-moving humpbacked giant monster also quickly broke into the battlefield. But one after another, they reached out to pick up the corpses of men and horses on the ground, and together with a large piece of soil and weapons, they were stuffed into the huge black mouth in confusion.
And this scene once again greatly stimulated the two camps that were fighting. As the Free Army formed groups, they alternately covered and took the initiative to break away from the battle; the Burgundian Legion from the city also screamed as if they were frightened, quickly shrinking and continuing to retreat.
However, this hunchbacked giant monster desperately grabbed the ground and started eating and drinking in the battlefield. Soon it was approaching the two camps with a roar. Even if it was hit by nearby soldiers with bows and arrows or projectiles, its ankles, knees, etc. Everywhere, as if the breeze was blowing on my face, I was completely unaware of it.
At this time, suddenly a "wuwu" horn sound filled with strange rhythms sounded one after another in the direction of Dijon, where the Burgundian Army was backing. And this giant monster, which only went to eat where the corpses were gathered, couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, looking up in confusion.
In the end, "it" with obviously slow nerve reflexes sprayed out several streams of gray smoke from its nostrils with some dissatisfaction; it still raised its big foot and suddenly turned around, taking the initiative to leave the direction of the Burgundian army; striding towards the same direction The Free Army came in numbers and bodies.
At this time, several surrounding fortresses had been successfully captured, and the Free Army artillery positions that had been prepared for them finally began to roar and fire. I saw a series of ball bullets with a faint trace of smoke, piercing the air and bombarding the target, which was extremely huge, and it was almost impossible to hide from the hunchback giant monster.
For a time, the earth, rocks and trees burst out one after another, and the giant monster was scattered in billows of dust and smoke. The protective layer attached to the surface was immediately peeled off and a large area was lost; there were even some gray-white parts exposed in some places. A layer of what appears to be a squirming skin.
This result seemed to make it feel some kind of pain and threat; in an instant, it raised its arms and stretched out its rickety body, and a large bulge appeared in the chest, which then turned into a continuous open-mouthed roar, forming a straight line The sound waves twisting and oscillating in the air hit.
In an instant, it knocked over and overturned the nearest group of Free Army soldiers; most of them were beaten to the point where their mouths and noses bleed, and their weapons and flags flew away from their hands. As for the more nearby soldiers who were affected, they were so shocked that they were dizzy, their ears were ringing, and they temporarily lost most of their hearing.
But the reaction of this irritated giant monster was far more than that; the next moment, it closed its hands and picked up a large piece of soil and gravel from the ground; the moment it was held in its hands, the sand suddenly solidified, It turned into an irregular solid solid and swung out.
The solidified earth and stone, which was as big as an entire house, almost roared through the air and hit the outer wall of a city fortress that was occupied by the Free Army and used as a gun emplacement. Suddenly, among the crowds of people shouting and escaping, a huge gap opened with a dull and loud noise.
Immediately afterwards, it easily uprooted the tall tree that was left alone and hugged each other in the nearby battlefield. Just like holding a short stick in his hand, he suddenly swung it on the ground beside him; he also quietly sneaked a group of cavalry behind him, looking for an opportunity to attack, and the cavalry were so shocked that they fell over.
Then it raised its hands to protect its head and face, facing the bombardment that came again, and jumped up suddenly across the ground; although the movement looked a bit clumsy and ridiculous, it dragged its huge body like a frog leaping over the ground. A hundred meters away, it crashed onto the edge of the Free Army lineup.
Immediately, a large crater several meters wide was opened on the falling ground, and ravines radiated from the collapse. The Free Army arrays scattered within a few hundred meters were also shocked. The men and horses neighed, rolled, and fell into pieces; however, at least several companies were affected.
However, when this hunchbacked giant monster slowly raised the big tree in his hand and tried to bombard and trample another city fortress in the same way again, something suddenly happened. A thin trajectory shot through the air; it suddenly hit the head it was trying to protect, and shattered a corner of its bone surface.
Amidst the wails and roars that resounded throughout the battlefield, the broken bones of the hunchbacked giant monster spattered large amounts of blood like rain on the spot; after the traces of blood fell on the ground, the earth and rocks quickly It condensed into a hard solid, and the contaminated weapons and armor quickly hardened.
And this unexpected injury caused the hunchbacked giant monster to immediately give up most of the targets around him and jump up again without hesitation. However, he kept leaping forward, cracking large holes in the ground, and rushed forward to the farthest fort behind the Free Army.
At this time, the Burgundian legion, which had retreated to the city to regroup, was inspired and agitated at some point; like a turbid current rushing through the wilderness, they came up with a loud noise to cover up the killing. Among them was a group of knights in full armor, with only a sliver of helmet showing, surrounding a carriage.
Just on top of this carriage was a huge steel smoker, into which people were constantly putting various special materials as fuel; an indescribable weird smell was emitted from the continuously running array. And this is also their biggest basis for taking the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
At the same time, the hunchbacked giant jumped and knocked over a large area one after another, and desperately tried to rush towards the Free Army soldiers who came to block and attack; it also successfully rushed to the city fortress behind; and then, Everyone in the battlefield heard a loud voice:
"Kneel down!"
Then, the hunchbacked giant monster, which was more than ten meters tall even with its hunched body, was swinging a giant tree over the city wall and smashing into some kind of tower. It was actually under the action of some irresistible invisible force that it screamed and screamed. He roared and fell to the ground, smashing a large wall with his head.
The next moment, the giant monster was seen struggling to get up again, struggling to reach out to support the wall; then the sound sounded again, and its arms suddenly twisted and fell down again, slamming into the dust and smoke under the wall. The Free Army soldiers present rushed forward with great morale.
The first to bear the brunt was a group of heritage knights wearing heavy armor, holding heavy hammers, iron awls, large axes and serrated swords; like ants who found every opportunity, they quickly found the weak point of the giant monster, and on the spot Cleaning and gouges were made to create gaps deep inside.
However, after a while, they gave up their continued in-depth attack and broke away from the hunchbacked giant monster one after another. Immediately afterwards, loud noises and roars were heard one after another; dozens of explosion points embedded in the giant monster's body also exploded and shattered, causing blood to flow like a fountain.
