Lord Highlander

Chapter 678: 667. The Battlefield Split by Darkness 2

The fire in the camp quickly sprang up, and the flames ignited by the dry sea buckthorn grass roared fiercely in the north wind.

Originally the bandits wanted to set fire to the campsite and cause some confusion.

What Leader Lowell didn't expect was that just as they started, fires broke out everywhere in the camp, and the fire spread very quickly, not only forming a scorching wall of fire, but even the sand pirates coming from the left were surrounded by a sea of ​​flames. The roiling heat scorched the horses' manes, and the air became so thin that the Sand Bandits soon found themselves barely able to breathe.

Leader Lowell wiped the oily sweat from his face. His back was a little sore from the flames. Every time he breathed into his lungs, it was like a ball of fire. He dropped the torch in his hand and patted the horse. neck, trying to calm it down.

The war horse beneath him seemed restless in the burning camp. It wanted to break free from Lowell's control and escape from here alone.

"Bastard, we've been tricked, let's go... Everyone get out of here!"

Leader Lowell only felt his heart tighten. It was purely because his keen sense of smell on the battlefield smelled a hint of danger, which made him subconsciously raise the light shield beside him, and an arrow shot towards him with a 'bang' sound. , pierced through the skin of the light shield, and the arrow tip protruded from the back of the oak board.

The tip of the arrow was close to his forearm, as long as it was half a centimeter down, the arrow could penetrate his forearm.

He didn't even have time to pull out the feathered arrow, and whipped the horse's butt fiercely, and the horse under his crotch leaped forward, and Chief Lowell felt that the leather boots under his feet were scorching hot.

Behind him was a group of sand robbers, and some of the sand robbers even had flames on their horses.

The passage in the camp was a bit narrow for the bandits on horseback. Some bandits couldn't squeeze in and had to rush forward along other roads in the camp. A bandit was shot off his horse every ten seconds.

They scrambled to get out of the camp.

Gullitum squatted in the gap where there was no fire in the camp, with the very handy bone-crushing stick standing beside him, as waves of heat rushed towards his face, Gullitum had to take a few steps back.

Seeing a group of robbers in the camp rushing towards him, Gulitham stood up abruptly, his tall body blocking the only exit of the camp.

Leader Lowell was taken aback. He let out a strange cry, raised the scimitar in his hand, and pressed his body tightly against the horse's back.

The phantom that emerged behind him was a poisonous snake that chose to eat people. The moment Chief Lowell rushed up, the poisonous snake behind Chief Lowell also opened its mouth at the same time, revealing four and a half The foot-long fangs bit down on Gulitum.

Gulitum spit into the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands vigorously, grabbed the big bone-crushing stick at the side, lowered the center of gravity of his body, stepped on the sand with both feet, and swung the big bone-crushing stick, Slammed towards Chief Lowell.

Leader Lowell didn't dare to fight head-on with the ogre Gullitum, so he hid his body beside the horse, and the moment he charged up with the phantom of the giant poisonous snake, he stabbed the machete obliquely at the ogre Gullitum On the left rib of the ogre's left rib, the bone-crushing stick raised by the ogre hit the phantom of the poisonous snake. top of the head.

There was only a muffled sound, like a rotten watermelon bursting, and the war horse of Chief Lowell didn't even have time to scream, it was knocked to the ground by the ogre's stick, and the heavy body of the war horse suddenly fell over. On the sand, Chief Lowell bounced like a cannonball.

Before Chief Lowell fell steadily, the ogre backhanded and chased after Chief Lowell. It seemed that Chief Lowell had a pair of eyes behind him. He twisted his body in mid-air and raised his shield. The moment he blocked the bone-crushing stick, he was smashed to pieces.

Chief Lowell only felt a salt in his throat and spit out a mouthful of blood.

He gritted his teeth, resisted fainting, and jumped far away with the help of the huge force of the collision.

A group of robbers on horseback rushed out from behind, slashing at the ogre one after another.

The ogre didn't have time to pay attention to the leader of Lowell, and carried a bone-crushing stick to meet the group of ordinary robbers. Although these bandits were skilled in equestrianism, and their attacks were particularly fierce, they swung their knives at the ogre fearlessly one by one. It was the ogre who wielded a bone-crushing club and shot down the horse one after another.

For a while, Gulitum was also on the rise. Almost every step he took, a robber would fall from his horse, and the sound of wailing was endless.

Leader Lowell, who fell on the ground, saw the crazy ogre. He didn't have the courage to fight again. He grabbed the reins of a war horse from the side, turned over and rode on the horse, and fled in the direction he came from.

In the night sky, a black shadow galloped towards with a screaming sound. The leader of Lowell turned around on his horseback as if feeling something, and a sharp arrow came out of the darkness 'suddenly' and pierced through Lowell. The leader's throat broke through a hole in the brainstem and flew out.

Leader Lowell fell on his back. The sand and snow on the ground had been trampled to pieces by a group of war horses. He pinched his bloody throat with both hands, and kept making a painful 'wow' sound from his mouth. His body just After a few jerky twitches, he lay upright on the sand.

Seeing the knight on the horse fall off again, the war horse galloped a few steps, then stopped slowly.

The ogre Gullitum was guarding the camp exit, and he had already been killed there to the point of blood flow.

The robbers trapped in the camp saw how ferocious the ogre was, so how dare they rush out. The fire in the camp was burning, and the high temperature inside made people feel suffocating. Rush to the weak point of the firewall.

With some flames on his body, the war horse jumped out of the burning camp...

These robbers thought they would escape by jumping out of the fire wall, but they didn't expect that there was a row of knights wearing the standard armor of the guard battalion standing outside the fire wall. The young faces were watching the burning camp with particular nervousness. The bandit was covered in flames, rushed out of the wall of fire, immediately raised the crossbow in his hand, and after aiming, he shot out all the arrows in his hand.

The crossbow arrows fired did not need any accuracy at all, and the robbers were shot down one after another.

...

Gabriel, the head of the mercenary regiment, stepped on the chest of the leader with Scarface, and pulled out the spear stuck between his eyebrows with one hand, and a bloody arrow shot out.

Captain Gabriel only felt the body under his feet twitch violently, and his hands scratched a few times indiscriminately, then he straightened up.

A group of mercenaries behind them were cutting melons and vegetables on the battlefield, beheading the heads of the robbers who died in battle, throwing them together and putting them into linen bags.

The battle broke out very suddenly. This group of bandits, which consisted of less than 300 people, rushed over like a group of headless chickens. Seeing that there were only 30 people on the side of the mercenary group, they scrambled towards this side. The mercenary group Each of the eight first-rank high-level fighters almost owns a few single-piece magic pattern structures at the bottom of the box, and the weapons in their hands are also very precious magic weapons.

These mercenaries have been on the battlefield for so many years, and almost everyone has some good goods in their hands, and their strength is much greater than that of the bandits in front of them.

But even so, it is still a very risky thing for mercenaries to fight one against ten.

The only thing that can be let go is that the mercenaries know that they have a knight with the Holy Light, even if they are injured in the battle, it doesn't matter, and these mercenaries are blessed by Suldak' God's Blessing With the blessing of body', the sudden increase in strength out of thin air undoubtedly opened up a new world for these high-ranking fighters who have been stuck in the bottleneck of the first rank for several years.

They haven't made any progress in power over the years. Even if they want to maintain their current peak strength, they still have to exercise unremittingly every day.

And now they have inexplicably stronger power, which gave them some new insights in the battle.

The thirty mercenaries had worked together in the usual battles. Although they fought independently, almost everyone was connected together. They also advanced and retreated together during the battle. When one person was in crisis, there would always be someone else. Be there to lend a helping hand.

This warband is almost like a meat grinder, unceremoniously strangling this group of desert bandits on the battlefield.

The black mist spread all around, making the robbers suddenly lose their sense of direction at this moment. They retreated steadily under the attack of the mercenaries, and they couldn't get out of the range of the black mist no matter what. In the end, the battle group of 300 people unexpectedly He was killed by a mercenary group without leaving any behind.

...

Suldak and Andrew led 200 veterans of the cavalry battalion to deal with the Huwan oasis sand bandits rushing up from the front as quickly as possible.

Andrew, like a murderous god descending into the world, split the leader of Cumberland in half, drenched in blood.

At the same time, the scimitar in Chief Cumberland's hand also fell on Andrew's shoulder.

The strength of the two is almost equal, but at the last moment, a thick shield of earth emerged from the magic pattern structure of the 'Earth Shield' on Andrew's body, which resisted the killing blow from the leader of Cumberland, so that Nanai Andrew finally win.

The sand bandits led by the leader of Kaiplov came up from the back of the camp. They rushed down from the sand dunes with torches, and even saw tents in the camp. They didn't guard this side at all, but they were about to rush The moment before entering the camp, endless darkness fell on them, making them seem to be wrapped in night fog. They followed the direction they remembered and wanted to rush into the camp in one go.

But rushing left and right in the black mist, he couldn't break through the black mist for a while.

When they finally waited until the black mist in front of them began to dissipate, they saw a group of heavy armored infantry wearing full armor appeared in front of them. These soldiers held tower shields and held spears in their hands, forming a long human wall block them.

Suldak stood in the center of the army formation, with a 'halo of power' under his feet. Andrew stood at the front of the army formation covered in blood, and approached the last group of Sand Bandits with two hundred heavy armored infantry step by step.

The sand bandits led by leader Kaiplov arrived at the battlefield one step later. At this moment, there should be a scene of melee around the camp, but apart from the occasional screams and fighting sounds in the distance, the surrounding area was actually very quiet. Leader Kaiplov Realize immediately that you may be alone and helpless.

He raised the scimitar in his hand, intending to call a group of his men to retreat.

Only then did they realize that a mercenary regiment of thirty people was actually blocking their way of retreat...

...

The battle will be considered to be coming to an end when a fish belly appears on the edge of the sky.

Nearly a thousand sand robbers were completely separated by Selina's "Darkness Comes", and they could only fight on their own in the dark night, but Surdak led his team to defeat them one by one. Only more than two hundred robbers broke through the dark mist , Without looking back, got into the snow-capped desert.

Nearly 800 sand bandits were killed by Suldak's army, and nearly half of the horses were dead or injured beyond treatment. The horses' corpses were piled up on the sand, and a team of veterans kept skinning the horses with skinning knives. , Pieces of horse meat were bloody placed on the rawhide.

Nearly 400 live war horses were seized this time. Since the sand bandits attacked the camp and did not bring a camel team, no camels were captured in this battle.

Almost all the remaining Sand Pirates had their heads chopped off. The mercenary group alone had nearly 1,500 gold coins in the account. Seeing that Suldak took out a bag full of gold coins in real money, It was only then that Captain Gabriel discovered that the sheriff of the barren land really had money.

All the sand robbers killed were burned on the spot, and thick smoke billowed into the sky, and the smoke column could be seen from more than ten kilometers away.

Although they took advantage of Selena's "Darkness Descends" this time, they had an advantage in the battle, but the sand bandits on the opposite side had a large number of people after all. After a battle, almost everyone was wounded.

After the battle, Suldak fell into the busy treatment again.

But this time he automatically filtered out those members with minor injuries, because with the blessing of God with the "Divine Blessing Body", minor injuries will heal soon.

In this battle, almost half of the veterans were covered with cuts and bruises, but fortunately, the defensive power of the full-coverage heavy armor is strong. These wounds are at most as deep as the bones, and few bones are chopped off directly by the sand bandits. Sur Dake's treatment was also relatively easy. He even found five women who were good at needlework from the camp, and he directly used needles and threads to sew up the larger wounds without any means of disinfection.

Then united to him to apply the 'Holy Light Art', and Suldak found that the wounds healed by the 'Holy Light Art' were rarely inflamed.

When he dragged his exhausted body out of the tent, he realized that it took him a whole day, and the sand around the camp was almost stained red with blood.

Although the corpses of the robbers had been disposed of, the camp still smelled of burnt corpses and blood.

The group of women who were captured in the Sweet Water Oasis was sorting out the bloody leather armor that had been stripped from the sand robbers by the fire. They were trembling with fright, but they had to half kneel on the sand and work hard.

On the contrary, there were a few large iron pots full of horse meat beside the fire, a thick layer of oil was rolling in the milky white boiling water, and a layer of blood scab formed on the ogre's body. His blood was still the blood of the Sand Bandit, and no wounds could be seen on his body. He directly fished out a piece of horse meat from the big iron pan with his hands, placed it directly on the hard horse hide, and cut it into pieces with a small knife. Put it in your mouth.

Gulitum greeted Suldak to eat some horse meat together.

Suldak waved his hand. At this time, he would rather chew some wheat cake dryly, which might feel better in his stomach.

Suldak came to the camp of the cavalry battalion, and Andrew was guarding the entrance of a tent, in which more than 20 sand robbers were chained together.

"How did the interrogation go?" Suldak asked Andrew.

Andrew wiped his blood-stained hands and reported to Surdak: "Boss, the locations of the six desert oases have been determined..."
