"The generals of the principality! The adventurers! And the soldiers of the principality!"
The twilight entering the dark night dyed the streets between the cities into an indiscernible dimness, and at the same time, the combat troops from both sides of Yare Street in the south of the city gradually mixed together. Immediately, a certain sound sounded from behind the large troops from the principality side. The figure shouted loudly, and the sound echoed through the sky, as if even Rena and others who were far outside the city gate could hear: "The empire has invaded our territory! It has insulted us!"
"Not only do they want to trample on our dignity, but they also want to prove our incompetence!"
"Pamir has fallen, and now we have no way out! Will we watch this group of people run over us so easily, and then take the homeland we have lived in for thousands of years as our own? "
"we can not!"
The sounds of countless swords intertwining with each other followed this loud shout and began to advance towards the city gate where the Empire was located. It seemed to have had a strong encouraging effect: "We will no longer allow these Imperials to slaughter us! Seize their butcher's knives." , kill them back!"
"For the Principality!"
The heavy magic explosion brought an end to this inspiring speech before the battle. The waves of air and the boundless momentum from the soldiers of the principality also made the scales of the battlefield tilt a little more in their direction, and looking at Her Royal Highness Princess Reina, who was watching all this, also shook her head, and then her long golden hair swayed towards her side: "Who is the principality person who is shouting?"
"It's Mr. Vincent, the Honorable Councilor." Diploma stopped looking at the magic influence next to him. Hearing the sound, DiPloma lowered his head and replied: "One of the more powerful people in the Principality's Parliament has now become a The character who leads the charge..."
"People who are willing to play such a role either have other purposes, or are incited and coerced by others." Reina shook her head in a low voice: "I can't really believe that they can do this kind of thing." Defeat our empire under such circumstances, right?”
"The matter has not been revealed yet, so the garrison stationed in other urban areas of Tania and other areas of Taron County have not taken any action yet." Diploma shook his head calmly and explained: "Although at the moment I Only the adventurers are taking action, but——"
"Once a war does break out, there is still a gap between the strength of a mere investigation team and the strength of the entire capital of the principality."
He said this with a worried look on his face, and at the same time looked at the battle scene that was revealed under the influence of the magic created by the Imperial Royal Magician Corps. The Imperial adventurers who had previously relied on their unafraid of death and human sea tactics were now The soldiers of the principality, who also had high morale, were retreating steadily before the offensive, giving back all the advantages they had gained from the city gate during this period. Looking helplessly at the shadows of swords and swords that were almost approaching, the Cangyun Barrier guarding the south of the street also let out a deep sigh. He reached out and pushed away one of the people who had been hit back by several heavy blows. The shield warrior of Minglan Mountain looked at the smoke rising far behind the battlefield with indifferent eyes: "How much trouble have you caused to make these people so angry?"
"According to what this group of people said before, it seems that Pamir was assassinated." The magician named Zhao Luan arrived at his side at some point and then let out a few low laughs: "As expected of him, just walk around They can all do such great things.”
"It's not like something he can do if he's rational. After all, we've been under enough pressure during this period." Cangyun Barrier shook his head: "Wouldn't it be wrong to do something like this at this time? Have we been proven guilty?"
"You mean, this is a unilateral conspiracy of the principality?" Looking in the direction of the shrinking front, Zhao Lu'an's eyes began to grow deeper: "Then judging from the current results, Look, their plan has undoubtedly succeeded."
"Xue Ling Huan Bing asked us to come here in such a hurry. He probably foreseeed this result." Holding the shield in his hand tightly, Cangyun Barrier let out a muffled groan: "It's just a game like this, we outsiders It’s hard to really get involved.”
"The best way is to take advantage of the situation, but judging from the current results, things don't seem to be developing very smoothly." He let out a slight sigh, and Zhao Liu'an kept looking back and forth around the battlefield in front of him. Said: "What we can probably do now is continue to attract enough attention and buy more time for those guys who sneak in."
"This feeling of not being able to control the outcome is really not good." His eyes followed the rising smoke in the distance and fell into the dark rainy sky. Cangyun Barrier raised his shield: "And to be honest, they I am also skeptical about whether we can achieve any results on the enemy's home court."
"Stop guessing, after all, we are the ones taking the blame now." The patrol's sight finally stopped in a certain direction, and Zhao Luan, who raised his staff, issued a few instructions to the surrounding Lanshan subordinates: "No matter what Whether it is a strategy by the principality to force us to stir up disputes, or a secret conspiracy by other hidden forces, the empire behind us should not be responsible for the temerity of us people."
"We can only...fend for ourselves."
A strong light flashed from the tip of the staff in his hand, and the dazzling lightning struck directly in the direction that the magician had noticed before. A sword slash also appeared on the person hit by the lightning. At the end of the alley, the figure of the swordsman named Five Elements Quetu was illuminated for a moment: "...I was discovered by you."
"It's almost becoming a war between the two countries. It's strange that you Jianghu didn't show up here." Zhao Luan's mouth twitched with a sneer: "And you actually used your sword to scatter my lightning arrows... You are also here Are you deliberately showing off your power?"
"After all, this is our home court. How can we do it without declaring our sovereignty?" Putting away the long sword standing beside him, Wu Xing Que Tu then sighed and shook his head: "But for me personally Said, I don’t like to take action under such conditions of home court advantage.”
"So it's left to those who want to be in the limelight."
He took a few steps back with the rest of the Jianghu gang members who were gradually showing darkness. At the same time, he gestured towards the corner of the street on the other side. Lou Tingyu, who was leading the Tingyulou congregation, also followed from that direction. His tense face was revealed in the darkness, and the long sword in his hand also drew a straight trajectory in the air.
"Come on! Kill them!"
****************************
"..."
A muffled groan came out from the depths of the dark passage again. It was the sound made when Xueling Huanbing's body was attacked again. She covered the wound and backed away, pressing her back against the passage. On the wall next to him, he looked at his left and right sides with vigilant eyes at the same time: "Huh, uh, uh, uh..."
"Ning Lan can't help but admire her for being able to persist for such a long time."
The voice that belonged to Ningyu Ninglan and had no emotion became clear immediately, accompanied by the subtle screams of the dagger that kept scratching the space: "It's a pity that such an ability cannot be used by the master, it is too It’s a shame.”
"I asked, is there something wrong with your brain?" Xueling Huanbing, who took a deep breath and calmed down, shouted: "Who has been your teammate during this time? ? Who took such a big risk to come here to find you? Don’t you think about this? "
"It is precisely because of this that the master got into such a big trouble." The straight thin line passed by Xue Ling Huan Bing's neck again, and together with the wall she clung to behind, a deep line was drawn. Traces: "Your existence has brought too much trouble to the master. The sacrifices he has made for you are already unbearable even for Ninglan."
"And yet she continues to betray him."
The surface of the wall scratched by the tip of the sharp blade turned into rolling gravel, which rolled to the ground together with Xue Ling Huan Bing's fallen body. Her consciousness was blurred for a moment, and then she suddenly bit the tip of her tongue. Then he rolled on all fours to avoid the opponent's next vicious stab: "Damn it, the speed is too fast."
"Ninglan is a professional player who was once known as the 'Ghost Faced Killer'." He slowly straightened up, and the blue and white maid figure vaguely appearing in the center of the passage tilted her head slightly: "It's a pity that it was three It happened years ago and you may have never heard of it.”
"Of course I have heard of it." The half-crouched figure blocked the horizontal sword blade in front of him, but Xueling Huanbing did not feel any warmth from the other party's smiling face: "If it is not a professional competition, You must show your face as a player. I’m afraid no one in that era would believe that there was such a beautiful face underneath that ghost mask.”
"Although she doesn't have much gaming experience, Ninglan has met a lot of opponents in the virtual world." The body slowly disappeared into the darkness behind, and Ninglan's emotionless voice seemed to be whispering something. General: "For a guy like you who is afraid of Ninglan approaching from behind and therefore stands close to the wall, Ninglan has a hundred ways to solve it."
"So why are you working so hard?" His body entered a state of high alert again, and Xueling Huanbing's eyes kept turning back and forth around him: "When did I betray Duan Qing?"
"Do you want to know how Ninglan found this place?"
There were screeching noises made by objects moving at high speed in the darkness, accompanied by the ruthless sneer of Ninglan, who was secretly saying: "In order to help the master get rid of the pursuit, Ninglan, who was responsible for cutting off the rear, also went with the master. We lost contact, but unfortunately a flood washed away all traces left by the master and the dragon woman."
"So Ninglan discovered your trajectory, and then tracked it to this place." The voice became colder, with a slight sneer echoing in front of Xueling Huanbing: "You actually agreed to the freedom so easily. Wing’s request, your love for your master——”
"It's not as good as Ninglan at all."
The screeching sound turned into the last cold blade light, and the dragon tooth sword that Xue Ling Huan Bing raised back and raised suddenly flew into the distance. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had the door wide open, also simply gave up the action of forcibly twisting his body. Then he threw out a 360-degree rotating sword light in the opposite direction. The bright whirlwind then also brought with it the power of the white-haired swordswoman's previous collision with Dark Whisper Ninglan, and used a perfect circular sword arc around her to kill the figure of the maid who did not know when she appeared in the opposite direction. Forced to step back, the codeword Ninglan, who had stopped attacking because she was avoiding this ray of light, also took two steps back. Instead, the raised dagger intertwined a cold color along the space that Xue Ling Huan Bing had just given way. Metal track: "——"
"Ghost dance steps."
Xue Ling Huan Bing, who said the name for the other party, had his eyes fixed and then had to retreat again to open a wider distance: "The footwork that many players want to imitate but have never learned can be done by walking. It’s a unique skill where the direction confuses the opponent’s judgment and can even cause misunderstandings.”
"But you still saw through it." He shook his head, and the smile on Ningyu Ninglan's face looked extremely scary at this moment: "Is it because the master has reminded you?"
"Your master taught me much more than you imagined." Still maintaining a distance enough to avoid the opponent's attack, Xueling Huanbing kept retreating and faced the intertwined swords and lights in front of him. Eyes said: "Especially during your absence..."
"He also taught me such skills."
The long sword placed in front of her chest suddenly disappeared into the space between the two people. The white-haired swordswoman turned around and rushed towards the center of the sword's shadow, and then her eyes hidden behind the sword's shadow were revealed. In surprise, he suddenly lowered his body. The cloth package wrapped with the blood-red sword that was carried behind his back was then cut into several pieces with messy cuts. Together with the dragon tooth sword that Xueling Huanbing carried behind his back, the attack from this ghostly woman was blocked. The white-haired woman who stopped and had a few more scars on her white cloth robe then let out a low cry and quickly spun around on the ground with one foot like a top: "Crane Wings!"
The crossed swords tilted sharply to the side as the body moved, sending a leg strike diagonally upwards. The white cloth robe still wrapped around Xue Ling Huanbing also followed this standard whip. The legs flew in the air and formed beautiful waves, sending the blue-white figure entangled around him like a white crane with bright wings flying into the distance: "...cough cough."
Wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, the eyes that Ciyu Ninglan retreated to the corner became much colder: "This is... the Four Symbol Art."
"Did the teacher teach it to you?" Her cold eyes were filled with some unknown emotion, and even her tone and address regained some of their original anger: "He... why..."
"He also taught me many other moves."
Swinging the sword behind her back, Xueling Huanbing, who was covered in scars, smiled: "You just said you love your husband more than me, right? Then -"
"Do you want to try it out in this way?"
