Chapter 74 In the misty rain
"Brother Alvin, you're back." The little girl threw herself into Alvin's arms without caring about the eyes of others, knocking him staggering as he got off the horse.
Onian glanced at Alvin lightly.
"Yes, little sister." Alvin supported her shoulders and said with a wry smile, "Looks like I have to trouble you again."
For some reason, he felt very sad when he looked at the little girl with tears in her eyes. However, knowing that the airship was still there at this time was the first good news in the past few days.
"What's wrong? Are you going to use this airship again?" Kui Qing asked curiously.
"Yes, one of our companions is injured. I would like to ask you to send her back to Salyuhi," Alvin said.
"What a big deal. I just want to send someone to Saluhi." Kui Qing said with a smile, "Brother, you left me so many runes last time. I have to repay this favor to you."
In a hurry to set off from Situ City a few days ago, Alvin couldn't take all the runes away, leaving only 20,000 runes for Kui Qing. He thought at the time that he would just bring two months' worth of military expenses.
, I didn’t expect it... I wouldn’t use so many at all.
"Ah? Taking someone with you is just like returning a favor?" Alvin joked, "You little girl is really good at planning."
"That's not true." Kui Qing blinked and smiled, then asked again: "What about you? Aren't you going to Saliuxi?"
"We are also in a hurry to get back to Saluhi, but it's too slow to go back by airship." Alvin said helplessly.
Aoi listened to Alvin's words, glanced at Onian again, and secretly speculated in her heart, "Even the princess has to rush back to Saluhi. I am afraid that this war will be extremely tragic, and the king may have..."
She looked at Alvin and sighed: "Yeah, it can't be slow after installing so much armor. I also think it's too bulky and inconvenient to control, so I'm dismantling the armor here. I think it should be able to be done after dismantling it.
It’s a lot lighter.”
Alvin looked up and saw that half of the armor on the airbags of the airship had been removed, while the armor on the hull was still there.
"Don't throw away all these armors. Although I don't know what materials they are die-cast from, their defensive effects are excellent, but they are a bit heavy. I think that Zhu Feng put a lot of thought into this." Al
Wen reminded.
"Brother, don't worry, the dismantled armors are all placed in the warehouse below the deck." Kui Qing said with a smile, thinking that both Brother Alvin and herself were "economical" people.
"Little sister, I have to remind you that going to Salyuhi this time is not peaceful." Alvin said and looked around, "Why don't you see your father? Do you want to discuss this matter with him?"
Alvin thought that after the airship sent people to Saluhi, Maine's army might reach the royal capital. He didn't want to involve them in the war for no reason.
"No need, I've always been the one to make the decision." Kui Qing agreed, "Besides, looking at your hesitant look, brother, I think this is going to be difficult. If I don't help you now, when will I wait?
?”
Alvin nodded, and suddenly leaned into Kui Qing's ear and said: "There is no time to dismantle these armors for you now. You have to get to Saluhi as quickly as possible. Remember, you must come no matter what, and
You must be quick, brother is waiting for you in Salyuhi."
Although Kui Qing was shocked when she heard this, she still nodded her head twice. She was wondering who Brother Alvin didn't want to let know about this.
"Bring the girl down," Alvin said to Kaiba. "You can go back in the airship with her. She is so seriously injured and she needs someone to take care of her. We will continue on our way."
After waving goodbye to Kaiba and Kui Qing, he hurried out of the city with Onian.
Feng Yuan had already arranged for people to transport the supplies to the foot of the mountain. Alvin glanced at the tired people who were weakly swallowing dry food, and sighed in his heart, but he knew that it was not the time to rest yet. He wanted to breathe comfortably
At least we have to wait until we get out of Maine.
"Lord City Guard, how about we say goodbye?" Alvin took a serious look at this person.
He is the guardian of Xituo City.
"Take care." Feng Yuan said in a deep voice, and his eyes fell on Onian unknowingly.
Onian frowned and looked at the provincial road leading directly to New York City in the northwest, thoughtfully.
Seeing such a distracted look, Alvin felt deeply amused. He thought to himself: "This guy is really capable of wishful thinking."
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------
So under Alvin's order, these dozens of troops began their long and depressing return journey.
Feng Yuan looked at the wisp of beauty in the smoke and lamented that she was always the humble and helpless farewell person, but when she saw her coming and seeing her go, she looked at the bleak future and felt hard to accept it.
"Actually, that city guard is quite a nice person." Alvin glanced at Onian and said.
"What do you want to say?" Onian said coldly, without even looking at Alvin.
"There were many people on the city wall just now who saw us entering the city, especially you. I'm afraid that this city guard's official career will not be so prosperous in the future." Alvin said with a wry smile.
"I don't have the leisure time you have, and I still have time to worry about others." Onian said expressionlessly.
Alvin took one look at her expression, stopped asking for trouble, and concentrated on his way.
I don’t know why, but the sun was still rising just now, and suddenly it started to rain. It was still drizzling at first, and after a while, the rain became heavier and heavier. The cold rain of late winter and early spring fell on this group of people who were rushing on the road, and there were only a few mist.
, adding a bit of desolation.
Before noon, the group had already arrived south of New York City, the capital of Maine Province.
Alvin took a closer look at the city wall, and immediately raised his arm and made a "stop" gesture, so the members of the Quartet mercenary group quickly grabbed the wet horses under their crotches.
Horses neighed one after another.
He looked coldly at the Maine soldiers lined up in the mist and rain, and roughly calculated that there were about a thousand soldiers on the other side. When he saw the red-haired woman at the head, he was speechless and had a dead look on his face.
.
"Xia Ye, you lead the people to escort the princess to Wind Iron Castle first. I will take the lead." Alvin said in a cold voice, and then they rode forward one by one.
"You're crazy!" O'Nian said angrily. She immediately jumped out of the horse, pulled out the staff behind her, waved her wrist lightly, and the staff's light immediately flowed, and a shield was directly blocked in front of the mercenary group.
.She did this series of movements in one go, and it was hard to tell that she was tired from running around all night.
"Let go!" Lan Yu looked at the snow-haired woman coldly and ordered immediately.
The Thousand Maine cavalrymen raised their arms in unison, raised the angle of the crossbow on their arms, and after releasing the hanging sword, a shower of arrows immediately shot out.
"Let's go!" Onian used magic power to support the shield and shouted to the people behind him.
However, she forgot that this was Alvin's mercenary group, and people like Lang Yun and Xia Ye only listened to Alvin's orders.
"Xia Ye, let the mercenaries in green scale armor push forward! Quick!"
"Langyun, take the remaining dozen magicians and take cover in the air!"
Alvin knew that an encounter was inevitable now.
After receiving the order, Xia Ye and Lang Yun began to deploy the few troops.
Taking advantage of the first few rounds of arrow rain being deflected by O'Nian, Xia Ye led dozens of martial arts warriors wearing green scale heavy armor to the position and protected them at the front.
At this moment, a ray of ink-colored light quickly struck towards everyone on Alvin's side. Looking closely, he saw an ink-colored dragon wrapped in a greenish color.
Alvin knew that this was Lan Yu's "Spell of Evil Flame Black Dragon".
During the battle on Malode Plains, Lan Yu should have consumed the least amount of magic power among the great magicians. Most of the time, she protected the safety of Master Fei Yue. Except for that time when she used the "Spell Black Phoenix", she never went too far.
consume
Overpowered by magic. In fact, at the end of that battle, she could have taken action against Alvin several times, but she failed. Of course, Alvin just wanted to use this to cover everyone's departure.
So even if it wasn't Lan Yu's full blow, it would still be enough to break through Onian's shield. After all, the princess was already at the end of her strength, and her magic power had already bottomed out after the shocking "He Yang Burns the Sky" on the plain.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been forced into such an embarrassing situation by Lan Yu's sword formation. It can be seen that the shield between her sleeves just now was just a bluff.
The arrogant Mo Jiao directly broke a straight line in the square formation of the mercenary group. Once the mercenaries were touched by the blue fireworks, their bodies were instantly engulfed by the ink-colored spell energy.
When the ink dragon with its bloody mouth broke through the shield in front of Onian, a "moon surface" of dim light and condensed fat stood in front of her.
Seeing Mo Jiao being stopped, Lan Yu felt furious in her heart, "This is the first time he has saved that white-haired fox?" She said with such hatred, so her heart became violent and she directly increased her hatred towards Mo Jiao.
Magical infusion.
Just when the ink dragon was about to break through Alvin's moon, there was a painted halberd coming from behind!
Ayton's flying halberd has the style of his father's "flying thousands of miles across the sky with one sword".
Obviously, even Lan Yu had not expected this, and she looked at the tail of the halberd disappearing from her eyes in great surprise.
It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided. The palm that didn't penetrate last time finally penetrated this time.
"Ah!" After Alvin let out a cry of pain that echoed through the sky, he held on tightly with his other hand to prevent the halberd from penetrating his chest.
He originally wanted to rely on the space-time rift around the moon to neutralize the energy of the evil flame black dragon, but he never expected that a flying halberd followed behind him. Even though he had used all his magic power to block the blow, it was of no avail.
.In fact, his magic power has been severely consumed in the past two days, and he can't squeeze anything out at all.
"How are you?" Onian walked around from behind him to look at his injuries, looking at the wound where the tender flesh had turned out.
Alvin saw her golden eyes widening and she looked like she wanted to go up and fight for her life. He smiled sadly and comforted her: "It's okay, but I may have to change my hand to hold the staff in the future."
He gritted his teeth and pulled out the tip of the halberd with his left hand, eliciting another cry of pain. The palm of his right hand was covered with blood and trembling. The cold rain accompanied by gurgling blood flowed freely along his fingertips.
slide.
When Xia Ye saw that Alvin's hand was injured, he quickly shouted to him: "Your Highness, you go first! I'll stay to break up the rear!"
Then Xia Ye shouted to the surrounding mercenaries: "Keep your formation and cut off the rear for the deputy captain."
"Yes, His Highness Alvin, we are here to drag you. You go first!" The waves above also shouted to Alvin.
Alvin glanced at the misty rain and fog to the northeast, and there were still layers of shadows of large groups of people galloping towards him. He knew that if he stayed here any longer, they would all be annihilated.
So he held the painted halberd in his left hand and threw it towards Ayton. As soon as the halberd left his hand, he picked up Onian's catkins, landed on his mount, and galloped towards the south without looking back.
go.
Ayton caught the flying halberd and was about to chase after him, but found that Lan Yu was faster than him and had already ridden out.
But when he saw the red-haired woman drawing two semicircles on the left and right with her slender hands, two dark red arc-shaped light whips were swung out horizontally, immediately knocking Xia Ye's phalanx off their feet.
Lan Yu didn't even look at the mercenaries lying on the ground, and leapt past them.
Lang Yun and the dozen or so magicians who were in mid-air just wanted to intercept her, but they were overpowered by her burst of instant magic, which was like a violent bombardment.
