Blue Sword

Under the mental scream, everyone suddenly felt a strong headache and dizziness, almost losing their balance.

However, this mental scream was interrupted again - because Sidrifa had already thrown the North Wind Ax while retreating.

This timing is so accurate: if it were earlier, Terror would not choose to use mental scream, but dodge to the side; for half a second at night, Hidliefa, whose consciousness was seriously affected by the scream, might have thrown No more weapons.

The North Wind Ax hit Terror, once again covering his body with a layer of frost, followed closely by countless new spiritual bodies, which surrounded Terror under the control of Nora.

After using the ultimate move twice in a short period of time, Fright had indeed suffered a huge spiritual loss. He was unable to use the third ultimate move and could only fight with the surrounding spirits.

The spiritual beings, who had been so numerous and majestic just now, were defeated almost immediately. There is no way, they are almost all ordinary people in life, and they are also ordinary spirits after death. Naturally, they are no match for such extraordinary creatures.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the circle formed by the spirits was torn open by fear.

As soon as she escaped from the gap, Eleanor, holding a long sword, immediately rushed forward.

Terror also recognized this woman immediately. Of all the enemies present, this human woman pretending to be an aunt was probably the only one who didn't have the attack skills to threaten him.

So he did not choose to consume the spiritual void again, but stretched out his claws and continued to attack.

The claws and swords intersected, and a strange force came from the sword, as if it was cutting into a ball of extremely sticky mud. Eleanor was wary, but her mood became gloomy involuntarily.

War, endless war, and the faces of the dead children appeared before her eyes again, making her almost unable to hold the sword.

Then a gunshot rang out.

At the moment when Eleanor was attacked by fear, her body had completely materialized. Mier seized this most critical opportunity and pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle.

The bullet passed through the frightened head and exploded like a watermelon injected with fluorescent ink, with countless bright and dim light spots flying everywhere.

At a distance of two meters, these light spots slowed down strangely, and then flew back quickly.

More attacks rushed forward, flames, thunder, ice... and scattered the light spots that had not yet gathered together.

It's just that the more times they are scattered, the faster these light spots fly back, and the maximum distance they fly out quickly shrinks from less than two meters to about half a meter.

In the end, these light spots gathered together, and under the concerted attack of everyone, they collapsed like a castle made of sand, condensing into a pool of turbid, silvery, opaque liquid on the ground.

Finally got it... As soon as this thought flashed through everyone's mind, they heard Aske reminding:

"Mia!"

Mia quickly pointed her hand to the ground, and the shadows cast by everyone on the ground immediately came to life and pounced towards the liquid.

The moment the shadow came into contact with the liquid, the liquid let out a cry and suddenly seeped under the ground.

It wants to escape!

The shadow firmly adhered to the liquid, and suddenly closed from both sides like a flytrap, completely wrapping up the liquid that was still working hard to seep out.

The liquid struggled in vain in the shadows, and everyone stared at it nervously, fearing that it would suddenly display some strange ability and run away.

After about another twenty minutes, the tumbling speed of the liquid finally weakened significantly and gradually stopped.

"Put it away." Ask asked everyone, using the container prepared in advance, to pack the liquid and send it back to Hearth Island.

"Asker." Nora and Medea felt guilty. Because it was their momentary anger that did not allow Asker to check Eleanor's appearance, which led to the secret of the tear trick plan being exposed at the beginning, which triggered the subsequent killing battle.

"Ahem." Asik raised his face and stared at the two beautiful girls who were anxious and apprehensive for a long time.

"We can't do this next time." Finally, he emphasized again.

————————

The next day, everyone arrived at Mingxing City again.

Compared with the last time I left, Mingxing City this time was obviously overcrowded. Immigrants with their families were everywhere, looking for work and buying daily necessities in the market.

Of course, the security situation in the city has also declined a lot. In just a few minutes, everyone witnessed four thefts, six fights, and countless quarrels and conflicts on the streets.

The security team was almost exhausted. Knight Commander John commanded the guards to arrest people everywhere, and forcibly evacuated the onlookers who were watching the excitement. Finally, they finally discovered the Blue Sword mercenary group in the crowd.

"Thank God, Miss, you are finally back." He ran to Eleanor's side, looking obviously relieved, "Although the Count of Innsbruck reported that you had evacuated the war zone in advance, there is still no news after waiting for so many days. The Duke has also been a little worried recently."

"Is father at the palace now?" asked Elinor.

"Yes." Knight Commander John called two guards, "There is a lot of chaos in the city now. I will ask my men to send you back."

Back at Weisbach Palace, the butler who had been waiting there took everyone to the door of the Duke's study.

At this time, a small meeting was taking place in the Duke's study:

"...His Majesty the Emperor's coalition forces are still trapped in Franconia. A part of the army tried to break into Burgundy from southern Lorraine, but was intercepted by the other party who had been well prepared..."

"...over the Principality of Bohemia, the Hussites have launched a full-scale rebellion, and the Luxembourg family is temporarily unable to provide assistance. Affected by the rebellion, the troops of the Northern Principality of Saxony are also unable to take the east route to support..."

"...it is unrealistic to rely on us alone to stop the Lang family. We must try to penetrate Franconia and open up the connection between us and the emperor's northern coalition, but we really can't send any manpower now..."

"How about you let me lead the troops!" Henry, Eleanor's second brother, interrupted the cabinet minister's narration, "Father, I will bring an extraordinary army over and cooperate with His Majesty's coalition forces to attack the Griffin family from front to back. , penetrate Franconia!"

"How many people do you want to bring?" Faced with his son's invitation, the Duke of Bavaria asked calmly.

"500 extraordinary beings, 1,000 powerful warriors with sufficient physical strength!" Henry said confidently.

"Then do you know how many people Count Conrad has?" the Duke asked.

"I……"

"If you don't even know the opponent's strength, is it a little too reckless to just randomly send an army to the north?" the Duke asked.

Henry was left speechless by the question. He turned his eyes and saw the butler and the Cangqing Sword people standing at the door.

"You're back!" He greeted him happily, and after confirming that his little sister was not injured, he warmly invited Aske and everyone in.

"I heard about your achievements in the south." The Duke changed the subject and praised in a tone of approval, "Yes, helping Sigmund survive until Christmas is indeed beyond our expectations. .”

Sigmund was the name of Count Innsbruck. Apparently this nobleman had evacuated in time after the fall of the southern city, and praised everyone in front of the Duke.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Duke." Asker said, "I could have held on longer, but I didn't expect that the other party actually borrowed a vehicle-mounted rocket launcher from the Holy See."

"I know it well." The Duke smiled lightly, "The reward for you has been prepared. I will ask the butler to deliver it later."

"Everyone, we can't afford to delay time, so why not the Wolf family? Both sides are just racing in the countdown to destruction." The Duke of Bavaria turned his head, looked around the people in the study, and said calmly, "So far, the South The pace of the front's fall was within our expectations in advance."

Everyone in the study looked slightly brighter. Indeed, although the current war situation is still tense, it is much better than expected before the war started.

It was previously estimated that Innsbruck would only be able to defend Innsbruck until October at most. Therefore, in the two months of November and December, Weisbach would continue to pour its troops into the foothills of the Alps in the south, spending them on a complex terrain battlefield like a meat grinder. Make every effort to prevent the family territory in the north of the principality from being directly plundered and destroyed by opponents.

However, Innsbruck now insists on holding on until the end of December before falling, which undoubtedly buys the Weisbach family a lot of time.

Even if they don't send troops to the south, when the Wolf family's army breaks through the Agenau Mountains and enters the Weisbach family's territory, the emperor's coalition forces will probably come to their aid.

In any case, the family territory can definitely be saved, and what remains is just the subsequent loss of troops.

Thanks for the 500 coins that the recovery is expected to drop, and thanks for the naive card disciple’s 100 coins~
