Seeing Uncle Linus' miserable appearance, Ying Tianyi's first reaction was to put away the snake-belly sword to avoid being discovered by Linus. At the same time, countless question marks arose in his mind.
As far as he knew, Uncle Linus was definitely not weak in strength. Even if he was not a sword master, he was at least a senior swordsman in his forties.
But he, a level 18 rookie, has been able to persist until now by relying on the advantage of the snake-belly sword in group battles, and has killed countless monsters. Why is Linus, who is more powerful, worse than him?
After Ying Tian waited for Linus to come closer, he reluctantly stood up and said: "Uncle, Celia is fine, she was just a little frightened and is resting upstairs! It's you, is it okay?"
Linus was startled by the corpses all over the ground in front of the tree house. He stepped on the sticky blood on the ground and limped to Ying Tianyi's side. He took a look inside the tree house first to make sure it was not a mess.
, there was only a slight trace of blood, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a grimace: "I am old and not as energetic as you guys. It seems that you have been here to protect Celia. It's really hard on you!"
Linus avoided talking about his situation and just used his old age as an excuse to deal with it.
However, when Ying Tianyi approached him, he frowned because of the strong odor. At the same time, he saw the countless footprints on Linus's body, and his mind immediately began to make connections, and he roughly guessed why Linus was in such a mess.
.
The actual situation was similar to what Ying Tianyi had guessed. At midnight last night, Linus got up in a daze to go to the toilet, but accidentally fell asleep while squatting in the toilet.
Because his blacksmith shop was relatively close to the front, he was the first to be attacked by monsters. As a result, Linus, who was squatting in the toilet and taking a nap, did not pay attention and was squeezed by monsters and fell into the manure pit. He was also stepped over by countless monsters who were not afraid of getting dirty.
, I was lucky not to be trampled to death.
When Linus climbed out of the manure pit with difficulty, he found that he was a swordsman but had no weapons in his hands. Therefore, poor Uncle Linus had to play a guest role as a fighter and fight the monsters with his bare hands.
Besieged by countless monsters in the toilet, Linus fought hard until dawn before finally escaping. After escaping, he naturally thought of the little cute Celia entrusted to him by the owner of the Moonlight Tavern, Sothea, and rushed there immediately.
came over, and was inevitably embarrassed by Ying Tianyi...
Ying Tianyi didn't say anything else, he just called Celia down and asked Uncle Linus to confirm her safety with his own eyes. Then, regardless of his physical fatigue, he held the blood-stained heritage dagger and walked step by step towards the emperor behind him.
**Walk to the camp.
Looking at Ying Tianyi's leaving figure, Celia's eyes were very complicated.
In the past, Uncle Linus protected her, mostly as a blacksmith, so that adventurers would not dare to mess around. But today, Ying Tianyi forcefully guarded the only safe door for her in the overwhelming crowd of monsters, leaving only
She was a little frightened, but she was fine.
On the other hand, Ying Tianyi himself was covered in injuries, his luxurious clothes had long been soaked with blood, and his hands were shaking slightly from exhaustion from wielding the sword for a long time.
After all, Linus was someone who had been here before. When he saw that something was obviously wrong with Celia's look at Ying Tianyi, he asked in a low voice: "Is he protecting you all the time?"
"Yes!" Celia nodded slightly and didn't say anything more. She just kept following Ying Tianyi's back with her eyes as he walked away.
"He is a good boy!" Linus sighed slightly and said: "He is polite, arrogant, and warm-hearted. He is a true nobleman. He is decisive in killing and has a clear sense of grudges. He is also a true warrior. Only this time
He also has an unshirkable responsibility for monsters attacking the town. I took a quick look just now and found that most of the people living here have been... Hey, what a town, it's been completely destroyed!"
So much time has passed, and anyone who knows a little bit about thinking has already figured out why the monster suddenly attacked the town.
"No, that's not his fault!" Upon hearing Linus alluding to Ying Tianyi as the sinner who caused the destruction of the town, Celia immediately turned back, ignoring Linus's strong "smell", and gritted her teeth firmly and said:
"He killed Ruda's brother to save me. He also accidentally poisoned those greedy adventurers to protect himself. If you really want to say that he is at fault, then all the mistakes are because of me.
It was me who killed the people here. I...I will go to Hedunmar to surrender and bear all the responsibility for this time!"
Linus looked at the determination in Celia's eyes and sighed helplessly. He wanted to reach out and touch Celia's head, but because he was too dirty, he had no choice but to take back his hand and said: "Now is not the time to talk about this.
, and no one is the real culprit. It was the monsters that directly destroyed this town, those ugly goblins and minotaurs."
"The town needs to be rebuilt, but you really can't stay here anymore. Although it is very close to the entrance of Grand Forest, which will help you restore your memory, it will soon become a paradise for adventurers. You are a weak woman.
My child, once you leave my sight, you will be in danger. You should return to Sothea and live safely in Hutton Mar! You can come back when the situation becomes more stable in the future."
Although Celia is weak, she is very smart. She knows that Uncle Linus does not really want to drive her away, but for her safety.
Recalling the greedy eyes of those adventurers, as well as the many conflicts caused by her, especially this time about Ying Tianyi, Celia's eyes were filled with water, she bit her lips slightly, and finally she was soft.
Nodding lightly...
In front of the emperor's station, there are still many monsters besieging him.
However, the emperor stationed here was not a vegetarian. After the initial panic, he quickly adjusted his formation and began to resist.
Natalya and others, because they had to wait for Ying Tianyi, did not go far, and finally joined the emperor's camp to resist the monster attack.
The members of the Raging Blood Guild who were able to escape smoothly, but they didn't know what medicine they took, but under the leadership of Ruda, they helped to resist the monster together.
Only those scattered down-and-out adventurers, minding their own business and escaping, had long since disappeared.
Ying Tianyi's whole body was covered in blood, and his evil aura was so strong that even his black and white eyes were stained with a layer of blood.
He held the heritage dagger upside down and walked step by step towards the emperor's camp. When he was about to approach the group of monsters that were besieging the camp, he was inevitably attacked by the monsters again.
"Get away!" Before a few goblins at the back of the monster group could rush to his side, Ying Tianyi suddenly raised his head, glared and shouted, the evil aura condensed from slaughtering hundreds of monsters exploded, and he actually
Those goblins were frightened.
These monsters created by mysterious "mutations" are crazy, bloodthirsty, and irrational. But they still have instinctive fear, because they don't want to die like this without knowing why.
A magical scene appeared. When Ying Tianyi slowly stepped forward, the goblins blocking him actually retreated to both sides in fear. None of them dared to attack Ying Tianyi.
However, when Ying Tianyi was about to approach the imperial defense line, and the monsters beside him changed from short and ugly goblins to tall and powerful minotaurs, his intimidating effect was obviously not enough.
The Minotaur's courage is not comparable to that of Goblins. They don't care how much evil energy Ying Tianyi has on him. Anyway, as long as they are humans, they will attack when they get close.
Ying Tianyi did not dare to continue to show off. Without hesitation, he used his last strength and launched the "Three Stages Cut" to rush forward.
In front, Cyrus, who was fighting on the front line, saw Ying Tian returning and immediately came to meet him with his snake-belly sword. Natalia and others on the side also rushed out one after another.
With the help of this group of women's soldiers, Ying Tianyi naturally rushed to the imperial defense line without any danger. Then he immediately sat down to rest without saying a word. At the same time, he did not forget to wave his hand to activate the formation "Kazan of the Soul of the Blade" to help
Strengthening those on the front lines.
The bald Ruda was also fighting on the front line. He was extremely surprised when he saw Ying Tianyi, covered in blood and filled with a strong evil spirit, fighting his way out of the monster group.
And when he saw the huge formation cast by Ying Tianyi, especially when he happened to be within the range of the formation, and experienced the feeling of having his power doubled, the shock in his heart could not be described in words.
The battle lasted for nearly an hour, and all the minotaurs at the front were killed. The timid goblins immediately broke up and fled. In front of the emperor's camp, a thick layer of monster corpses was piled up, far exceeding the Celia tree.
The scene in front of the house.
Statistics after the war showed that over 10,000 monsters had been killed when they attacked the town, and most of them died in front of the imperial camp. But in terms of the number of individual kills, Ying Tianyi definitely ranked first.
However, among the ordinary residents in the town, only a few very lucky people escaped. Even the powerful emperor lost hundreds of people in this battle.
The members of the Violent Blood Guild led by Ruda cunningly hid behind the emperor's back and fought with negligible losses. Although Ying Tianyi's women's army fought bravely, due to their excellent skills, they only suffered minor injuries and no one was injured.
Killed in action.
The one who was most seriously injured was Ying Tianyi himself!
After resting for a day at the bloody Elvin Defense Line, Ying Tian and Ruda set out for Hutton Mar, the capital of the Principality of Belmare, as soon as Ying Tian recovered from his injuries.
Before leaving, Ying Tianyi quietly met with the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army, a captain of the Imperial Tiger Legion, and had a secret conversation with him for a while.
After Ying Tianyi and others left, the Imperial Army immediately strengthened its control over Elvin's defense line, stationed directly in the empty town, and strictly limited the number of adventurers who came here. At the same time, a secret letter was sent back to the Imperial Capital
Wei Talun tells the story of Ying Tianyi's great achievements this time.
On the way to Hedunmar, the members of the Violent Blood Guild no longer dared to challenge the girls around Ying Tianyi, or even take a second look.
These seemingly harmless girls actually have amazing fighting power, and each of them kills decisively, even more ferocious than adventurers like them. As for Ying Tianyi, who is "covered with poison", not even Luda dares to approach him, and he can only go with him
The other person is always with him.
Little cutie Celia, following Uncle Linus’s advice, followed Ying Tianyi to Hutton Mar...
ps: The story of Elvin's Line of Defense has ended so simply. The following is the story of Hutton Marr and Gran Forest. Please rest assured that there will not be a bloody sequential attack dungeon mode, but the people who should appear will still appear.
