Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 16
In a one-on-one duel, any regular soldier of the Golden Dynasty can rely on excellent armor to ignore the shoddy bows and crossbows made by the demihumans. kill.

But the current situation is different. The demi-human coalition forces naturally occupy the condescending terrain advantage, and there are also a large number of strong hybrid archers among the ambushes. Sweeping the battlefield like a swarm of locusts passing by from low altitude!
A large number of soldiers were shot into sieves by random arrows and fell to the ground. Due to the narrow terrain in the pass, except for a few spearmen holding shields, no one could make effective dodge at all.The splattered blood condensed into a light red mist in a very short period of time, mixed with countless howls and roars, making one feel like being in purgatory for a while!

As soon as the rain of arrows fell, Clivell took out a perfume bottle from his arms and swung it in the air. A speck of powder shaped like glowing scales immediately enveloped his body, covering his skin, robe and mount. Its surface is coated with a layer of shiny light film, which blocks all the occasional arrows, and only makes a sound of gold and iron.

Fragrance - War Frenzy!
This potion can attach a protective layer as hard as stainless steel to all creatures within an hour, and at the same time greatly strengthen the physical strength of the perfumer himself. Medicines "Iron Pot" and "Fever".

It is worth mentioning that although the court perfumers in the golden age are famous for their superb medical perfumery skills, they also have combat effectiveness not inferior to elite knights as battlefield doctors during the Unification War.As for those degenerate perfumers who rose up during the Shattered War and were known for their battle perfumery, they were nothing but juniors in front of this group of perfumer's originators.

On the other side, Hektorf managed to recover from the shock. His eyes fell on the soldiers who had been massacred in the pass, and a burst of anger was immediately aroused, and strands of blood like spider webs immediately It rushed into his pupils!

"Clayville, you traitor, traitor!" He yelled and drove his horse forward, pulling out the huge sword, which was one and a half palms wide, from behind with his strong and powerful arms, wrapped in a terrifying wind Pressure tried to kill Clivell who was a few steps away.

Suddenly, a scream of the air being torn apart erupted in the ears of the two of them, and a giant arrow as thick as a tree trunk was entwined with circles of spiral airflow and shot straight towards Heck on the horseback. Tove!
The frightened and angry Hector had no choice but to step on his stirrups and jump up hastily. The huge arrow almost brushed past his body, blasting the galloping horse into a ball of bursting blood mist. !
On the mountain hundreds of steps away, a burly troll warrior slowly lowered his bow and reached out to take another arrow from the quiver on his back, but this time he did not aim at Hector again, but changed the target It became the newly constructed shield formations in several places in the valley.

Beside him, more and more mountain monsters with a height of more than five meters appeared on the mountain. They drew their big bows of the same height into a full moon shape, and roared out heavy giant arrows, suppressing him mercilessly. Sporadic resistance organized by Karen City Guards.

Hector, who was lucky enough to avoid an arrow, staggered and fell to the ground. He looked desperately at the mountains above the pass—this was the first time trolls appeared in groups among demihumans and hybrids. Coupled with the enemy's strength that was several times greater than the plan and the terrain's disadvantages, it was only a matter of time before he and his troops were strangled.

At this time, the convoy of baggage at the rear had just entered the Sunset Pass, and the subhuman troop that appeared suddenly destroyed the few ballista vehicles in the convoy with rolling logs and stones, and the soldiers who hurriedly avoided the arrow rain Huddled together, corpses and damaged vehicles quickly accumulated, forming the biggest obstacle for the city guards to evacuate.

After several rounds of arrow rain suppression, the demi-human coalition army has launched a decisive charge against the city guards who have no fighting spirit, with a small number of hybrid fighters equipped with wooden shields and leather armor as the vanguard!

Seeing the situation, Hektorf had already given up the idea of ​​beheading Clivell, his only goal now was to find a chance to capture him alive, and coerce the demi-human tribes he cooperated with to let him survive.

Unexpectedly, before he had time to move, Clivell leapt up from the horse, and his figure even turned into a faint black shadow!

In astonishment, Hector subconsciously waved his sword to block him, only to hear the crisp sound of gold and iron strike, and a huge force hit the middle of his giant sword, shaking his internal organs with a burst of pain , The whole person flew out backwards!

"What?!" A mouthful of blood sprang from the corner of Hector's mouth, and he looked at Clivell with horror in his eyes.

However, before he could figure out why the opponent's combat power was so powerful, a terrifying murderous intent erupted from behind him, which made his hair stand on end in shock!

Hector turned back hastily to meet him, only to see a cold Kaidan long knife seem to slip out of the crack in the space, and then lead out the agile and vigorous figure behind the handle.With a distance of more than ten steps, Turak approached Hektorf in only a split second, and slashed three times with a twist of his wrist!
The first cut was three inches above Hector's sword grid, and the one and a half meter giant sword was swung to one side, forcing the middle door to open wide!

For the second cut, Turak charged forward with the knife in his hand, and the blade sliced ​​through Hector's breastplate and neck guard made of fine steel from bottom to top!
For the third time, he swung the knife and swept across, a cold light suddenly appeared, and his blood rushed to the sky!Hektorf's neck, which was no longer covered, was chopped off in the middle with a knife, and the blankness in his eyes only stayed for a moment, and the whole head rolled smoothly to the ground!

In this sudden duel, Hector, who had always thought that his combat power was comparable to that of a hero, faced another Kaidan mercenary who had always been unknown. Kill on the spot!

Clever on the opposite side was slightly startled when he saw this. Although he knew that the No. [-] member of the Shuofeng Tribe was extremely powerful, he never expected that the opponent's sword skills were so high. Although Turak took advantage of the sneak attack , but being able to kill Hector with three moves is by no means something he can handle easily.

During the chaotic battle, the highest commander of one side was beheaded directly by a wave of raids, which would often directly lead to a major collapse of morale and morale, not to mention that almost all the elite knights in the Karen City Guard who really had the command authority at the grassroots level were buried in the first place. In the explosion and rain of arrows, the remaining soldiers naturally entered the stage of rout and surrender.

However, most of the demihumans and hybrids who surrounded them had a deep blood feud with these new troops under Hectorov's command. They completely ignored the surrender requests of some soldiers, and just formed small groups of three or four, along the The entire valley was being slaughtered mercilessly.

Twenty-five minutes after the start of the battle, the last wailing came to an abrupt end, and the guards of Karen City, who were on the expedition this time, were completely annihilated.
