The darkness of the eternal night is shrouded, and a gray-white heron is soaring over this eastern wasteland. A pair of sharp eyes are constantly scanning the earth, as if looking for its prey in the dark night.
Tap tap tap
On the ground, the noisy sound of horse hooves sounded.
A group of cavalry dressed in oriental colors are moving forward slowly. They are lined with red tabards, wearing chainmail, with bows and swords hanging on their backs, red cherry helmets on their heads, and blue embroidered gold-edged swords in their hands.
With battle flags and torches, they seemed to be patrolling this land.
But at this moment.
Bang
There was a sudden sound from the bowstrings in the patrol.
Whoosh
A sharp arrow burning with flames cut through the night, directly piercing the head of a half-human, half-animal creature covered with green scales. It also illuminated the darkness beyond the light of torches in the distance.
There were several similar-looking half-human, half-animal monsters covered with green scales. They were looking at the patrolling cavalry with greedy and ferocious eyes, and then let out weird howls, and then
He rushed towards them.:.
"General."
In the patrol team, a cavalryman sitting on horseback holding a longbow frowned slightly, then turned to look at their general.
It was obvious that the arrow just shot was shot by this cavalryman.
His eyes were very sharp, and he could clearly see the enemy's trajectory even in the dark night, so he just discovered that the monster was quietly approaching, and then he shot the enemy directly with his bow and arrow.
But I didn't expect that this monster was not acting alone. Not far from him, there were several monsters like this covered in green scales, lying on all fours, with a pair of short wings on their backs, which could briefly glide in the air.
"Um."
"It's the Shrike Man."
The obvious leader of the patrol team, who was called the 'General', was a middle-aged man. He had black hair, a black beard on his chin, and a pair of dark eyes.
He also saw these green-scaled, half-human, half-animal monsters, with a look of disgust and hatred in their eyes.
"These damn monsters!"
They are the defenders of the Yi Di Golden Celestial Dynasty stationed at Wu base. The fifth base is located on the northeastern border of the Golden Celestial Dynasty. They are five giant military fortresses starting from the southern end of the Sea of Blood in the north and ending at the northern foot of the Dawn Mountains in the south.
They formed a curve, guarding the borders of the Golden Celestial Empire, and defending against monster attacks from the Shrike Land and even the Gray Wasteland.
The fifth base of the city wall is made of molten black stone bricks, reaching a height of hundreds of feet, even as high as the Great Wall of Despair. It has become a natural moat that stands outside the civilized land of the Central Plains and cannot be conquered.
According to legend, miracles of human civilization such as Fifth Base were not originally built to resist these shrike people and the monsters of the gray wasteland.
Because although the shrike man has a pair of short wings on its back, it can only glide briefly at most, and it is impossible to fly to the majestic city wall hundreds of meters high. Even the terrifying monster in the gray wasteland has to fly in front of the fifth base.
A head-on collision resulted in bloodshed.
Therefore, there was no need for the ancestors of the Yi people to go to great lengths to build five such huge fortresses to guard the borders of the empire in order to fight against these inferior races that were invading the borders.
Therefore, in the ancient legends of the Yidi people, the origin of the fifth base is earlier than the Golden Celestial Dynasty, and was built under the order of the second emperor Pearl Emperor during the Ming Dynasty.
He is the descendant of the Lady of Light and the Night Lion, the eldest son and heir of the Emperor of Heaven. The Emperor of Heaven reigned for ten thousand years until he was promoted to a star. The Pearl Emperor ruled for more than a thousand years and then passed the throne to the Jade Emperor. The Pearl Emperor believed that there was
This five-base protective fortress can keep the Night Lion and his demons away from the human world.
The cavalry currently patrolling this group are from the defenders stationed in the fifth base of the Golden Celestial Empire. They are not only stationed in the fortress, but also occasionally send out elite scout teams to patrol and hunt down those who try to sneak around the fifth base and enter.
To the shrikes of Middle-earth and the monsters of the Gray Waste.
Therefore, when this group of Golden Celestial Cavalry saw the Shrike Men, who were just legends to the outside world, they did not show any timidity. Instead, they drew their bows and arrows, and some even drew their swords from their waists and faced this group of people.
Kill the monster that rushed towards them.
"Kill them!"
The general with short black beard gave the order, and the rest of the Golden Celestial Cavalry did not hesitate, as if they had rehearsed it countless times, they all pulled the reins in their hands, and the patrol cavalry instantly dispersed like birds and beasts and went in all directions.
Tap tap tap
The sound of horse hooves was chaotic and noisy, and the shrike man with scarlet eyes and green scales rushed over with a strange roar.
The mounts under this team of Golden Celestial Cavalry have also seen great scenes. They often follow their masters to hunt these terrifying monsters.
Where has an ordinary war horse seen such a monster?
Perhaps he had been frightened and fled with his master.
However, each of these war horses has a strong body shape, slender bones, and their hair looks shiny under the light of the torch. At first glance, they are good horses and good colts. This kind of horse is larger in size, sprints faster, and has stronger impact force.
Of course, there is a price, which is that general endurance is not very good.
They dispersed with their masters, and the cavalry on horseback also raised their bows and arrows. The cavalry holding torches illuminated them, and then the archers narrowed their eyes.
Bang
The bowstring made a sound again, and a lightning-like arrow suddenly flew out of his hand.
Then there was a pop, and the flying arrow quickly penetrated into the eye socket of a shrike that was howling. Blood instantly spattered out, and the body fell to the ground.
The patrolling cavalry of the Golden Celestial Dynasty used their skillful riding skills and scattered formations to confuse the attention of these bird-man monsters, causing them to focus on one thing and another, unable to concentrate on one target, and then they were defeated one by one.
Bang bang bang
In the eternal night, sharp arrows flew out, reflecting the cold light under the light of the torch, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the shrike people.
Soon, only the last few Shrikes were left and wanted to escape, but at this time, they discovered that they had been surrounded by the cavalry of the Golden Celestial Dynasty in a "disorganized" formation.
They screamed in terror and threats, bluffing, and seemed to want to scare away the group of humans. However, the knights on horseback had cold faces and were not moved at all. They all pulled out the swords on their waists.
.
"rush"
"kill!"
Puff puff
Afterwards, chaotic horse hooves crisscrossed, trampling the soil contaminated by blood and water, and the corpses of shrike men fell on the ground. To provide you with the fastest update of Game of Thrones: Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon, Chapter 670
