Queletta glanced helplessly at Draven, who was arguing with everyone behind him. He clamped his horse's belly and walked a few steps quickly to approach Darius, who was at the front, and lowered his voice.
"It's not good for Awen to be so out of shape all the time. If we don't wait until this battle is over, we go back to announce the marriage to Awen. After having a woman, Awen should have grown up. In addition, it's almost time for us to take a long vacation."
Already..."
"Well, we will go back and get married after this battle is over. As for Awen, you also know that boy is as stubborn as a cow. It's okay if he meets someone you like. If you don't like it, even if we tell him,
I won’t agree either.”
Having said this, Darius smiled bitterly.
"What's more, others may not necessarily like this kid. He needs to change his bad mouth. He has been in the army for so many years, but he has suffered a lot because of his mouth. He just doesn't have a long memory."
"You said yourself that Awen has a stubborn temper. If you don't let him speak, he will definitely get angry with you."
Whispering did not affect the alertness of the Wild Wolf Team. The explosion of magic elements came from the other end of the mountain, followed by the rumble of the mountain collapsing and colliding. The faces of the members of the Wild Wolf Team changed.
Darius didn't need to say anything more. The Wild Wolf team entered a state of alert. Under the protection of everyone, Sears, the only magician, had already used the detection technique, sharing the element of sight and hearing with Sears.
Fly to the sky and fly to the other side of the mountain.
Sears opened his eyes, his face slightly anxious.
"It's the expedition team from the Wind Control Swordsmanship Dojo! They are being besieged by void creatures! There are too many enemies, and we can't handle them alone! We must seek support!"
After hearing what Sears said, Darius immediately smashed the magic positioning crystal and fought with his colleagues. At the same time, the magic star tablet at the outpost had detected the crystal signal of the Wild Wolf Team, and the equipment was on standby at any time.
The knights immediately attacked.
On the other side of the mountain, the warriors at the Wind Swordsmanship Dojo were already surrounded by dozens of void electric eels, and hundreds of void burrowers were digging at the high ground that Thalia had reinforced with magic at all costs.
Swallowed everyone in the Wind Control Swordsmanship Dojo.
Yasuo walked alone with the wind under the high ground, killing void burrowers one by one as if entering an uninhabited land, and restrained most of the void creatures.
The katana in his hand slashed out wind walls that were as sharp as a blade. The wind walls blocked the Void Quagga Beast's attack route. The Void Quagga Beast and Void Electric Eel that hit the wind wall were cut into pieces by the airflow.
, so the intensive charging void burrowers could only be forced to bypass the wind wall. In this way, the void creatures could not exert their numerical advantage, giving the exploration team a chance to struggle and breathe.
Under the command of Yongen, the thirteen wind warriors who were besieged formed a formation on the high ground to protect Thalia, the second core of the team, using their swords as shields to block the places where the wind wall could not reach.
Even though they have taken advantage of every location, the Wind Swordsmen still don't feel relaxed at all. After all, not everyone has the strength of the Gale Swordsman.
"Support will arrive soon! We must hold our position at all costs!"
As the third person in the team, Yongen bears considerable pressure and plays the role of a firefighter on the high ground.
“Squeak squeak!!!”
Floating in mid-air, the Void Electric Eel's body is translucent and almost impossible to detect in a static state. Only within a few seconds of accumulating lightning to launch an attack will the Void Electric Eel's body transform into a shallow, disgusting spot.
Purple skin.
"careful!"
Several streaks of purple lightning struck from the sky. Yongen ducked to his junior brother's back and slashed with a knife. The energy attached to the blade directly scattered the lightning.
Yongen, whose palms were burned by electric current, did not say a word. He took out the longbow from his back and shot three arrows in succession. The ice element arrow with the reinforced arrow exploded into ice crystals the moment it hit the Void Electric Eel. The Void Electric Eel was hit by all three arrows.
The eel froze into an ice sculpture and fell to the ground, cracking into pieces.
Yongen was about to draw an arrow and shoot again, when several bolts of lightning struck one person. The moment his body was paralyzed by the electric current, the Void Quagga that climbed up to the high ground had already torn the swordsman's body apart with its claws, and the Void was preparing to feast on it.
The Quagoa was killed by Yongen's sword. Without thinking about what to do, Yongen filled the gap in the formation.
"Junior brother Gu Ling!"
"Yasuo! We can't last long!"
"Senior Brother Yong'en! When will support arrive?"
"Damn! Why will our whereabouts be exposed?"
Several spikes of earth element pierced the void burrower approaching Yongen, and the pale Thalia looked at Yongen.
"Brother Yongen! I'll stop these bugs! You focus on dealing with the Void Electric Eel!"
Gritting his teeth, Yongen said nothing. He took a few steps back and silently fired his bow, looking for the next Void Electric Eel to attack.
The most difficult thing about the Void Electric Eel is its ability to travel stealthily, leaving him less than two seconds to attack. If the first arrow misses, the Void Electric Eel will duck away, hide again, and wait for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
Suddenly, there was the sound of heavy horse hooves coming from the north. Yongen looked up and saw twenty heavy cavalry forming a wedge formation and heading towards the high ground where they were. They were the border patrol team.
Although the number of knights who came to support was not large, the morale boost they brought was real. The presence of a border patrol team here is enough to show that the stronghold is not far from here, and a large force will arrive soon.
Darius put down his helmet, and the long-handled broad-bladed ax in his right hand easily tore apart several void burrowers blocking the way.
"Come with me and charge! Disrupt their formation!"
Following closely behind Darius, the Wild Wolf Team pierced the void beasts like a sharp knife, causing a commotion.
Worried that Darius and the others would hit his blade wind wall, Yasuo gave a loud warning.
"Everyone! Get out of the way of the wind wall!"
"Okay! Let's contain these beasts on the outside! The big troops will arrive soon!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It was also noticed that Darius and others' void electric eels split off a part to attack the Wolf team, and the thunderbolt current hitting the armor only caused Darius to
Si and others felt some numbness, which did not affect everyone's actions, but instead aroused the murderous intention of the Wild Wolf Team.
The heavy cavalry squad charged back and forth among the void beasts, successfully disrupting the formation of the void beasts and greatly reducing the pressure on the people on the high ground.
This is not the first time that they have seen how powerful the imperial soldiers equipped with heavy equipment are. The surviving wind warriors are still very shocked.
The expeditionary force is not so stingy that they do not provide equipment of the same specifications to their aiders who have come from afar. The problem is that they are already accustomed to light armor and samurai swords. It would be difficult for them to wear heavy armor and hold big swords and axes.
It seriously hindered the combat effectiveness, so they could only maintain the status quo. After all, the empire's sophisticated equipment was produced in black iron furnaces, and it was impossible to just build suitable equipment for them by just setting up an earthen furnace.
The situation seemed to be getting better, but the void burrowing beasts stopped all movements, crawled on the ground, and simultaneously let out ear-piercing screams as if praising the king. Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
The next moment, a violent sound came from deep underground, and a gap of more than a hundred meters opened in the gray ground. The five members of the Wild Wolf Team who were at the back were unable to avoid it. They fell into it with their horses and men as the ground shook.
In the crack, life and death are unknown.
Seeing that his comrades died in such an unexplained manner, Darius reined in his bridle and looked at the crack with eyes wide open. He saw a giant worm-like void creature leaning out from the crack, hundreds of body segments colluding with each other in series,
There are numbing dark purple joints on both sides of the body segments. The joints are supported on the edge of the crack and the worm continues to extend its body upwards, reaching a height of a hundred meters in front of everyone's eyes.
The head of the worm has a pair of flexibly dancing tentacles and a pair of giant jaw limbs. The worm has no eye organs, and its mouthparts are composed of annular fangs staggered inside and outside. They are dense enough to grind anything eaten into the mouth into
Meat puree.
A woman with lavender skin is located at the head of the worm, her tentacle-like slender arms are intertwined with the worm's tentacles, and her lower body is directly submerged under the worm's hard carapace. I don't know what kind of joint posture it is. It looks like
Extremely evil.
Queletta looked up at the humanoid creature with the worm's head and murmured.
"It turns out to be the Apostle of the Void. Now we are in big trouble."
Queletta's voice still echoed in Darius's ears, and the giant worm had ejected a tentacle.
"Quiletta! Watch out!"
Darius galloped toward Queletta, but he was still a little slow.
The tentacles were drawn straight towards Queletta's body. Queletta jumped off the horse very quickly and rolled on the ground twice, barely avoiding the tentacles that were like cannonballs. The hard gray rock shattered instantly, and there were more
A small pit.
The void worm did not attack again. The humanoid creature above it glanced at Queletta coldly and made a woman's high-pitched voice.
"It's better not to say anything without my permission. I don't like others to steal my limelight, especially women. This is your last warning."
In silence, Darius clenched the giant ax in his hand, his heart pounding. The emotion of almost losing Queletta made the man want to kill the void monster in front of him immediately. His eyes stayed on the monster's body, but he didn't know.
How should I kill such an enemy with an axe?
Everyone present was too small compared to the worm monster. They were not opponents at the same level at all. Any courage seemed so pale and feeble.
At this moment, Darius realized how much he longed for power.
The obedient humanoid creature ignored Queletta and Darius. The worm lowered its head in the direction of Yasuo. The female Void Apostle had an arrogant smile on her face and did not look at the Wolf Team again. It was obvious that
I didn't take the Wild Wolf Squad seriously,
Since he didn't know the unwillingness and anger in Darius's heart, he wouldn't care even if he knew it. The Void Apostle spoke loudly in standard Noxian Empire language.
"Before I eat you, please allow me to introduce myself first, so that you can know whose stomach you have entered, so as not to die in confusion.
My name is Suzana Farmer, and I am the ninth void apostle serving Her Majesty the Queen of Belvis. This is my little pet, named [Pahz], Hepaz, let me say hello to everyone.
"
"Hiss, hiss..."
The mouthparts of the giant void worm opened and closed, emitting a low-frequency cry. Except for Yasuo, everyone in the Wild Wolf Team covered their ears in pain to relieve the pain in their heads.
After looking down disdainfully for a week, Suzana's eyes quickly settled on Yasuo. She paused at Yasuo's manly face, and there was a bit of greed in her eyes.
"A handsome swordsman who can resist Hepaz's cry. What's your name?"
Knowing that a war with the Void Apostles at this moment would only bring huge casualties, Yasuo decided to deal with the Void Apostles for a while and wait for the empire's reinforcements to arrive.
"Yasuo."
"Yasuo?"
Upon hearing this slightly familiar name, Suzana looked quite surprised and giggled in a high-pitched voice.
"So you are the famous Gale Swordsman? It's better to hear it than to see it. You are indeed a handsome man~ No wonder Her Majesty the Queen is full of praise for you."
"It's really an honor for me to be favored by the Queen of the Void."
Yasuo dealt with it calmly, secretly thinking about how to kill the Void Worm if he fought against it.
Facing an enemy with such a huge disparity in size, his Odachi seemed powerless.
Suzana could guess Yasuo's thoughts, but she didn't care.
"Yasuo, you are qualified to become my 'family'. How about serving Her Majesty the Queen with me and joining our big family? In exchange, I can let go of the companions who are related to you."
"Do you mean that I want to become a being like you? If I keep this ugly bug as a pet, I will become neither human nor ghost."
Everyone was ready to fight. To everyone's surprise, the Apostle of the Void didn't seem angry after being ridiculed by Yasuo. Instead, he patiently enlightened Yasuo.
"Why should we care about the beauty and ugliness of appearance? Only spiritual peace and satisfaction are what we should pursue.
When you become one of us, you will understand what is truly worth protecting. We can enjoy an unprecedented beautiful life in the world created by Her Majesty the Queen. If you don't like our attitude, you can also enjoy it in the lavender sea.
Keep your appearance,
Her Majesty the Queen is far more generous than you think, and her mind can accommodate the whole world."
Yasuo shook his head.
"But all I see is endless destruction. The so-called new world of Belvis is just a mirage built on the pain of others. Just look at the Icathia Peninsula, which is thousands of miles away, and you will understand what your queen has done.
.”
Suzana sighed softly.
"So, you chose to refuse? It's rare that I invite you kindly...Hepaz, kill them."
"Ssssssssss!!!"
Amidst the screams of the giant void worms, the void burrowers and void electric eels launched another attack on everyone.
"Brother! You take Thalia and the others and escape first! I'll hold her back!"
