Chapter Fifty-Fourth [The Last Stand] Part 1

The Psychedelic Strait is covered in thick fog all year round. Even at noon, the visibility is still very low. The salty and cool smell of the virtual sea is greeted face to face. The sound of surging waves can be heard in the ears. Hetel has been suppressed for many days. The mood finally relaxed a little. More than a hundred large and small black spots could be seen on the beach. They were ships sent by the Saipan people. The friendship between Langyuan and Danilka was indeed deep.

Langyuan held a dark-skinned Saipan man and walked towards Hetel. The big man was of medium build, bald and hairless, and had an ordinary face. The most attractive thing was his big feet. It is a common feature of the Saipan people. They have wide feet and webbed feet between the toes. This feature allows them to swim freely on the sea.

"Danilka, see the commander." Danilka clenched his right fist on his heart and saluted Hetel respectfully. Saipan is one of the few races recognized by the empire. In other words, they are from the Xuanwu Empire. Legal resident.

Hetel nodded and said kindly: "Thank you very much this time."

Danilka smiled and said: "Brother Wolf has saved my life. Not to mention more than a hundred ships. Even if I sacrifice my life for him, I, Danilka, will not frown."

Lang Yuan felt warm in his heart. He was touched by the sincere love between brothers.

Hether said: "The imperial pursuers will be here soon. We'd better cross the strait as soon as possible."

Danilka nodded, picked up the conch on her chest, and blew her cheeks.

Lang Yuan commanded the soldiers to board the Saipanese ships in an orderly manner. Although the Saipanese provided more than a hundred ships, these ships were basically used for fishing and could only transport more than ten soldiers at a time. If this continues, it will take at least forty round trips to transport all the soldiers to the other side of the strait.

It was not until dusk that half of the soldiers crossed the strait. At this time, the wind and waves on the sea became much stronger, and the time to cross the strait increased a lot.

Hether decisively ordered: "Continue to cross the sea and try to transport everyone across before dawn."

The sky quickly darkened. Dark clouds enveloped the entire sky. The sky was so low that it seemed to be pressing down on the sea. Suddenly, a dazzling bolt of lightning split open the haze that filled the sky. Then there was a series of deafening muffled thunder sounds.

The wind increased in an instant. It roared like a tiger and ran wildly on the sea. The waves were tossed around and rushed towards the rocky coast at high speed. When the waves collided with the rocks on the shore, it was like tearing apart. The roar was accompanied by white waves flying into the air with the wind.

The huge waves pushed the small boats to the top of the waves. Then they quickly fell down. The soldiers came to the valley of the waves with horrified shouts.

A small boat lost its balance during landing. The bottom flipped upside down. Before the soldiers on the boat could react, another row of huge waves spun the boat into the air and fell heavily on the rocks. The corpses and blood were instantly wiped away by the dark waves. Only a faint trace of blood remained in the air.

The sudden change of situation frightened all the Saipanese people. Most Saipanese people anchored their boats on the shore and no longer wanted to risk their lives.

A helpless look appeared on Danilka's face. She whispered to Lang Yuan, "It's better to wait until the storm subsides tomorrow morning."

Hetel, who was standing aside, said firmly: "No. We must cross the strait tonight."

Danilka was angered by Hetel's tyranny. She said loudly: "Commander, I don't seem to have any obligation to let my people take risks."

Langyuan held Danilka's arm to stop him from continuing his attack. He whispered: "We will pay huge rewards to every Saipanese who paddles."

Danilka slowly shook his head and said: "Money can never buy life." He patted the back of Lang Yuan's hand: "As the leader of the Saipan tribe, I must be responsible for the lives of the tribe. I can send the ship Give it to you. I can give you my life. But I have no right to make my tribe pay the price for our friendship."

Lang Yuan nodded silently.

Most of the Saipanese people chose to leave. Only twelve people, including Danilka, stayed. The progress of crossing the sea slowed down more and more.

Danilka also personally joined the ranks of steering the boat. In his memory, such huge waves had never appeared in the Psychedelic Strait. An ominous cloud enveloped his heart.

"Commander, please get on the boat." Lang Yuan begged in a low voice.

Hetel slowly shook his head: "I once betrayed my brothers. I will never make the same mistake again." He suddenly felt a dull roar in his heart. His eyes subconsciously looked to the sky, only to see lightning flashes. Amidst the thunder, a red figure circled back and forth among the clouds.

Hetel's deep eyes suddenly burst out with excitement. He whispered: "Here he is. He is finally here."

Lang Yuan didn't understand the true meaning of Hetel's words.

At this time, the samurai responsible for observing the enemy's situation came to report. The empire's army was only about ten miles away from the Psychedelic Strait.

"Commander, hurry up and get on the boat." Lang Yuan prayed again.

Hetel shook his head resolutely. He solemnly handed over the secret decree given to him by Emperor Xuan Sizhe before his death to Lang Yuan: "Lang Yuan, I leave everything to you."

Lang Yuan couldn't understand why at the last moment, Hetel suddenly gave up the idea of ​​going to Cloud Chuan City and decided to stay and fight.

Hether said: "Find the princess with this secret decree and fulfill the emperor's last wish..."

A crackling thunderbolt interrupted Hetel's words. In the distance, an endless black line suddenly appeared between the sky and the earth. The army sent by the empire to encircle and suppress them finally arrived.

"Let's go." Hetel roared loudly.

Lang Yuan nodded with tears in his eyes and boarded the ferry under Danilka's pull.

A gray-white track quickly tore the night apart like lightning in the dark night. It rushed towards the strait at an incredible speed.

Heterhu's eyes widened. He had already identified this vanguard force composed of bloodthirsty orangutans. His thick arm waved powerfully in the air: "Shoot."

A thousand crossbowmen guarding the rear raised their crossbows at the same time. More than a thousand rockets shot into the air like meteors, drawing bright tracks in the night sky. Then they fired towards the team of bloodthirsty orangutans.

The burning rockets reflected the bloodshot eyes of the bloodthirsty orangutans. The burning arrowheads shot at their rough and hard skin at high speed, but it was like hitting gold and stone. It did not cause any damage to their hair and skin. damage.

The pain of the arrow impact caused the bloodthirsty orangutans to howl in anger. Their ferocity had been completely aroused.

Before the crossbowmen could use the second round of arrows, the bloodthirsty orangutans rushed into the crossbowmen's team like chasing wind and lightning. A bloody massacre began.

The bloodthirsty orangutan's sharp claws easily tore through the crossbowmen's armor. They opened their ferocious mouths and bit hard on the crossbowmen's necks. Their sharp fangs effortlessly broke their cervical vertebrae. The blood of the soldiers makes the bloodthirsty orangutan's bestiality boil.

The world was filled with miserable howls. Faced with this group of inhumane and bloodthirsty orangutans, Heter's soldiers had been completely reduced to lambs to be slaughtered. Their well-trained fighting skills were more flexible in The bloodthirsty apes looked clumsy and unfamiliar. Sharp weapons could not cut through the opponent's tough skin. The battle had evolved into a one-sided massacre.

The cyan light and shadow rushed into the bloody rain created by the bloodthirsty orangutan like lightning. Hetel was sitting on top of the green wolf. His thick and powerful arms held up the serrated broadsword. He made a powerful stab. The blade of the sword penetrated accurately. In the strange eyes of a bloodthirsty orangutan.

Accompanied by an earth-shattering howl, the injured bloodthirsty orangutan's hair stood completely on end. It abandoned the body that had been broken into two pieces in its hands. Its sharp claws drew several shining tracks and clawed at Hetel's chest. go.

Hetel held the sword with one hand. He struck out with his left hand and accurately grasped the bloodthirsty ape's arm. An orange-red halo enveloped his body.

A trace of inexplicable fear flashed through the bloodthirsty orangutan's single eye. Hetel's power far exceeded its imagination. With a crisp click, the bloodthirsty orangutan's thick arm was completely cut by Hetel. Broken. The stump of the broken bone penetrated its flesh and exposed its body surface.

Red flames rose around the serrated broadsword. The scorching brilliance passed through the thick neck of the bloodthirsty orangutan like lightning. First, a white mark was seen, and then it quickly turned red. Blood mist spurted out from the cut wound.

The bloodthirsty orangutan covered his neck in horror. Blood foam continuously emerged from between his fingers. The broken muscles in his neck could no longer bear the weight of his head. Nuo Da's head rolled to the ground. .

The headless body took a step forward aimlessly. It just happened to step on the body of a soldier, breaking the body into two pieces. Then it fell to the ground with a crash.

Hetel raised his serrated broadsword high. His resolute face revealed the aura of squinting at the world: "Anyone who stands in my way will die." His voice shook the surrounding air.

The bloodthirsty orangutans rushed towards Hetel like a tide. Blood could only arouse their madness, but could not make them retreat.

A huge red dragon swooped down in front of Hetel. It sprayed out a stream of red flames in mid-air. The flames surrounded the four bloodthirsty orangutans at the front. The smell of burning smell filled the air. middle.

More than two thousand soldiers behind Hetel rushed forward bravely. The bloodthirsty apes are not invincible. They will also die.

Chaos began to appear in the southwest corner of the bloodthirsty orangutan team. A man and a woman rushed into their camp without fear. It was Tang Lie and Fina who arrived here in time.

The dragon-slaying knife in Tang Hunter's hand is the nemesis of the bloodthirsty orangutan's tough skin. Every time he makes a knife, one orangutan will be injured by him. The bloodthirsty orangutan's tough skin is so fragile in front of the dragon-slaying knife. .

Although Fina's jasper knife is not as sharp as the dragon-slaying knife, she is flexible and specializes in targeting the weakest eyes of the bloodthirsty orangutans. In a short period of time, she has blinded seven bloodthirsty orangutans.

With the two men joining forces, the surrounding bloodthirsty orangutans were injured and fell to the ground. They approached Hetel's position through the bloody path.

The combined attack power of Hetel and the Red Dragon was far greater than that of Tang Lie and the others. He rode the green wolf and shuttled and fought on the ground. The Red Dragon breathed fire in the air to cooperate.

The depression in Hether's heart for many days was finally relieved. He laughed loudly and said: "I will kill all of you hairy bastards today." With a backhand sword, he cut off the head of the bloodthirsty orangutan who was trying to attack behind him. .

"Commander." Fina and Tang Lie finally successfully joined forces in front of Hetel.

Heter nodded with mixed emotions: "Fina."

Tang Lie did not dare to relax at all. With an arc-shaped slash, a bloodthirsty orangutan who wanted to get close to Fina was split into two halves diagonally from the shoulder. The blue knife flame ignited the orangutan's gray-brown hair. .An unpleasant burnt smell spread in the air.

Hetel looked at Tang Lie with admiration. Tang Lie's sword was not only based on the power of the long sword. The angle and power of the sword were also perfect. He didn't expect that he had made such great progress in such a short period of time. .

The two bloodthirsty orangutans roared and attacked Tang Lie at the same time. Tang Lie retreated cleverly. When the strength of the two orangutans was exhausted, the blades turned outward and the blue blade flames suddenly surged. .Cut off the four sharp claws of the orangutan.

The orangutans let out a scream at the same time. Fina seized the rare opportunity and aimed the golden crossbow arrow at their eyes. The crossbow arrow penetrated deeply into the orangutan's strange eyes. One after another, the screams sounded again.

The strength of the three men finally made the bloodthirsty orangutans retreat. They expanded the encirclement, but did not dare to continue launching close attacks.

The imperial army that came to block the attack was advancing slowly. They were in no rush to attack. It seemed that they wanted to use these savage bloodthirsty orangutans to consume the opponent's energy.

The red dragon let out an angry roar. The scales on its neck stood up piece by piece. It soared into the sky above Hetel's head. A pair of black eyes fixed on the dark clouds in the sky.

Hetel's heart beat violently. This was the reaction before the enemy arrived.

Tang Lie suddenly felt a wave of heat in his waist. He immediately concluded that the heat came from the dragon egg hanging in the leather bag around his waist. His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

The passion on Hetel's face gradually faded and returned to the calm expression of Gujing Bubo. He said slowly: "Fina, you and Tang Lie will get on the boat first with Qingtou."

Fina shook her head vigorously and said stubbornly: "No. The handsome man won't leave, and I won't leave either."

A drop of cold rain fell on Hetel's forehead. He said coldly: "I will definitely see who this secret dragon knight in the empire is today."

"Commander." Fina cried with tears in her eyes.

Hether thrust the serrated broadsword into his back with his backhand. Red Dragon slowly glided to his side. Hether lovingly patted the long hair on the back of Green Wolf's neck. He resolutely jumped onto Red Dragon's back. He roared. He said: "Military orders are like mountains. You must not disobey them."
