Chapter 139: The Soul Under the City Gate

Xiao Tianming pulled the tearful Wa Lan and ran all the way. In a short distance, they would reach the outermost checkpoint of Longyan City, and they would have hope.

The war horse galloped, and its gasping sound made people feel distressed. The war horse could no longer run. In order to convey the news of the orc sneak attack as soon as possible, Xiao Tianming could no longer care about so much, even if he used undead magic to transform the war horse into undead bones.

The horse must also run.

Time is life, and the news must reach Longyan City as soon as possible. Stop, and the lives of the two people will be swallowed up by the orcs and wolf cavalry; stop, and the sacrifices of Captain Watt and all the scouts will be meaningless; stop, and the bald man's last wish will be forever

Unable to achieve. They can't stop!

Looking at the watchtower of the checkpoint on the horizon in the distance, Xiao Tianming was overjoyed. He shouted in a loud voice: "Urgent military situation, urgent military situation! Level one alert!"

The sentries in the watchtower seemed to have seen the galloping war horses and Xiao Tianming dressed as imperial scouts, and immediately sent a small team to greet them.

Smiling slightly, Xiao Tianming thought to himself: You bunch of orcs can just go and eat ashes! With an army to support you, you won't dare to be presumptuous.

Subconsciously turning around, he realized that the sky behind him was full of smoke and dust. Xiao Tianming was shocked: They were coming! Xiao Tianming could even see the wolf breathing clearly and smell the fishy smell of the wolf. This was from the sniper place.

Chasing troops.

"Be alert! There are pursuers!" Xiao Tianming reminded loudly. But it was already too late.

Xiao Tianming passed by the sentry team, and they noticed the wolf cavalry behind them. Seeing that Xiao Tianming and the two were indeed imperial scouts and seriously injured, they immediately gave way to the two, blocked the pursuers, and fought for their escape.

time.

"Brush, brush!" There was a dense sound of swords being unsheathed. Before the sentries seemed to react, they were beheaded, their blood overflowing, and they died in vain.

"Damn it! It's the elite orcs!" Wa Lan cursed. The elite orcs have strict discipline and their combat power is so powerful that ordinary imperial soldiers are no match for them. Xiao Tianming felt a chill in his heart: Even the checkpoints can't stop them.

The checkpoint was right in front of him. Xiao Tianming's heart skipped a beat and he shouted: "Urgent military situation, all soldiers will do their best to stop the pursuers. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"

Xiao Tianming had to sacrifice the soldiers at the checkpoint. With them blocking him, he could at least buy some time. The tracking ability of the Wolf Cavalry was too terrifying and he couldn't get rid of it at all!

The rank of imperial scouts is higher than that of any other military service at the same level. In times of military emergency, they have the right to command on an ad hoc basis. Those who delay military operations due to unfavorable obedience will be severely punished. This is considered the privilege of a scout.

"Yes! For the Empire! Huanglong! Advance!" the soldiers at the checkpoint roared loudly. The team that had already been organized immediately blocked the road that the checkpoint must pass through, blocking the swarming wolf cavalry. Their faces were firm.

As the backbone of the orc mobile force, the wolf cavalry is naturally extremely powerful in combat, not to mention the elite wolf cavalry. Ordinary sentries will die if they stand in front of them! What is shocking is that even if the wolf cavalry has a full-moon scimitar, the sentry soldiers are still tenacious.

Fight to the death and never retreat.

Don’t they know they are being sacrificed? Of course they do!

This is an imperial military order! Scouts have an emergency military situation and have the right to mobilize all available forces, and they are no exception. If they escape from battle, they will be severely punished. Even if they are lucky enough to escape death, they will be unable to hold their heads high as a human being for the rest of their lives.

Behind us is Longyan City; behind us are our wives, children, and children; behind us is the Huanglong Empire! For our family, for our honor, and for our country, we cannot retreat! We must die worthy of death! We are imperial soldiers!

"Scout! Give the military information to Marshal Jun while you are alive! Leave this place to us!" the highest officer at the sentry post, a cavalry commander, wearing military uniform and armor and holding a sharp sword, gave a stern order.

"Yes, sir! Leave this place to you and leave Longyan City to me!" Xiao Tianming and Wa Lan answered together.

With a look of relief on his face, the cavalry commander turned around and struck out with his sword, cutting off the head of a werewolf. With his sword, he stabbed straight with his backhand, blinding a warg's eyes. The warg went crazy, causing a chaos, and seven or eight wolf cavalrymen fell.

On the ground.

Before the cavalry commander could take his breath, a full moon pierced the sky, blood spattered, and the big head rolled and fell. His eyes were wide open, and he refused to close his eyes! As he spun in the air, he saw only a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes and bright armor.

A werewolf with a cold face and a scimitar that doesn't touch blood.

"He is... the "Prodigy of the Wolf Clan" Xiao Yue? He is indeed well-deserved! The scimitar is indeed sharp!" The cavalry commander's last emotion revealed a hint of helplessness.

"They're all trash! Chase them! If you can't kill them, the plan will be exposed, and we will suffer heavy losses! If they run away, you will all die!" There was a hint of blood in the middle-aged werewolf Xiaoyue's order.

"Yes!" The wolf cavalry shuddered and chased more enthusiastically.

After a long time, Longyan City was in sight. Once within the range of bows and arrows, Xiao Tianming and his two men were safe. The orcs did not dare to go to the city to chase them.

Victory is in sight!

Xiao Tianming pretended to be relaxed and said: "Wa Lan, I told you that you won't die! It will be safe soon. We have done a good job and we will not let you go to the front line again. You will have the opportunity to go back to see your children. You

I’m going to be a dad!”

Many people died. As long as the news is brought back and Longyan City is on guard, the orcs' conspiracy will never succeed. Only the sacrifices of the soldiers are valuable. Moreover, Wa Lan, who thought he would die, was not even injured, which is a great blessing among misfortunes.

.

Wa Lan had a gloomy face, but was not optimistic at all: "Magician Xiao, um, Tian Ming! Promise me, promise me that if I die, you must take my soul home. I thank you on behalf of the orphans and widows!"

Wa Lan became more and more serious as he spoke, and his eyes turned red.

"What nonsense are you talking about? We're all here now, and the orcs can't come up with any tricks. Don't worry about being your father!" Xiao Tianming reassured again. He didn't believe in the so-called fate. As a top powerhouse, "My fate is up to me. I can't help it."

!" This is everyone's motto. If a random stargazing warlock comes and makes a few random remarks, a strong man will be dead. How can Xiao Tianming still mess around?

Things in the world are so bizarre. Xiao Tianming's words haven't even landed yet. "Neigh!" Two outstanding war horses sat down and neighed together, spitting blood at the mouth, and the corners of their eyes turned white. They looked like they were about to die from overwork.

Xiao Tianming felt a chill in his heart: Is it really so weird? The horse failed at this moment. Cruelly, Xiao Tianming chanted a spell, and two miserable green light balls swam between Xiao Tianming's hands. Xiao Tianming gathered

With all his strength, two halos of light shot on the backs of the two horses respectively.

Waves of green light flashed through, and the two fine war horses were streaked by green light from head to toe. Soon, the flesh and blood of the whole body corroded and fell off, revealing white bones. In the dock's skull, two bright green fires

When ignited, in the blink of an eye, the two horses immediately turned into two white-bone war horses, majestic and arrogant.

This is one of the most effective magics in undead magic: undead transformation. Using a large amount of magic power to transform organic species into inanimate undead units, and increasing the strength of the undead tribe, it can be called one of the most powerful undead magics.

Over the course of history, transformation magic has gradually declined and died out due to the complexity of magic circles, difficulties in practice, and resource constraints. It has become a supplementary auxiliary magic to necromancy magic. It is far from the era when it single-handedly dominated the research trend of necromancy.

Instead, the trees were broken into forests, benefiting countless branches of necromancy.

The hooves of the Bone War Horse rumble, but the speed has dropped a lot. The excellence of the Bone War Horse is that it can work non-stop like a perpetual motion machine without getting tired. Its failure is that it has no explosive power of muscles, and its average speed is lower than the explosive power.

A powerful human war horse.

Looking at the smoke and dust of the wolf cavalry in the distance, Xiao Tianming cursed: How dare they chase after them without fear of their whereabouts being exposed? With his eyes closed, Xiao Tianming used all the auxiliary magic available on the bone war horse, even the newly developed

Don’t let go of the “bone strengthening” products that come out.

The speed of the bone war horse has increased again, and its speed is temporarily the same as that of the wolf cavalry. If this continues, there is still a chance.

The wolf clan Xiaoyue saw it from a distance and laughed loudly: "Their war horses are dead! We use two wolves alternately, and we can catch up with them! Speed ​​up and surround them in front of Longyan City. Don't be afraid of the opponent's arrow tower.

, there is a magician inside the two rabbits. If we go back alive, our secret will be exposed. No one can afford it, everyone must be buried with him!"

The wolf cavalry suddenly accelerated, their morale was high between life and death!

Xiao Tianming was caught off guard. While calculating the burst speed and time of the wolf cavalry, he also calculated his own speed and distance. He also calculated the duration of the auxiliary magic and his own magic power consumption. His mind was spinning very fast. He reasonably changed the casting rhythm to strive for the best result.

Effectively distribute magic power and persist to Longyan City. As long as they enter the range of the arrow tower, the orcs will not dare to act recklessly!

The war horses roared, the wargs roared, and the two sides competed at the speed of life and death. Everyone has a reason to win, and failure means death!

The explosive power of the wargs is indeed amazing. The bows and arrows of the forward wolf cavalry can already reach Xiao Tianming and the two of them. The "swish" sword pierced the air and passed by the ears of the two. If the mounts were not unstable, the distance would not be close.

It was too far away, and the two of them had been dead for a long time.

Persevere, persist! For Watt and Baldhead, for life, and for the empire!

They can't lose!

The horses ran hard, they knew no pain, no fatigue, and persevered, like the most sophisticated machines. Several arrow clusters were pierced on the bones. Xiao Tianming carefully collected them and kept them as evidence. In case the corrupt nobles of Longyan City did not

I trust the two little scouts, what should I do?

Seeing that none of the many sharp arrows were effective, Xiaoyue felt dissatisfied. She picked up the bow, channeled her fighting spirit, pulled the string fully, and concentrated her energy. She aimed slightly and loosened her fingers. The sharp arrows flew out like lightning and flints, hitting the two arrows in front of them.

Human heads...

The horse's hooves galloped, and a sharp arrow pierced the sky, as fast as lightning. Before Xiao Tianming could react, it was pierced in his left arm, dripping with blood.

Xiao Tianming held back the pain, broke the arrow shaft from the middle, and continued running. If he stopped, he would die! "Wa Lan, hold on! We are almost home!" Xiao Tianming held back the pain and shouted to the side and back that he must be encouraged.

Wa Lan is depressed. According to his logic, the closer he gets to Longyan City, the closer he will be to the God of Death.

Wa Lan was surprisingly silent. Xiao Tianming thought he was still thinking about boring prophecies and didn't take it seriously. He continued to use magic and accelerated his escape.

Running desperately, the werewolf seemed to be behind him. Xiao Tianming's magic power was almost exhausted, he was bleeding too much, his body was exhausted, and his spirit collapsed. If it weren't for the strong will to survive supporting him, he would definitely fall to the ground and never get up again.

Coming.

In a daze, Xiao Tianming subconsciously raised his head and looked ahead: the towering city walls, the bright guards, the bright armor uniforms, it was Longyan City! It was very close! It was only 1,500 meters away.

The longest range of Huanglong's bow and arrow is one thousand meters, and the two of them are only 500 meters away from heaven! "Wa Lan, cheer up! We are almost successful!" Xiao Tianming said with great joy. In his excitement, he actually ignored Wa Lan again.

There was no reply. Once again fully applying all the auxiliary magic, Xiao Tianming sprinted with all his strength.

At a distance of only 500 meters, the Bone War Horse approached quickly with all its strength. Magical perception told Xiao Tianming that the distance between the Orcs and Wolf Cavalry was already very close, but it was a pity that they could not catch up with them.

Four hundred meters!

Two hundred meters!

One hundred meters!

Passed!

In the end, the orcs did not intercept the two men outside the range of their bows and arrows. Once the news was spread back to Longyan City, the orcs would never be able to find a way out! The two men survived in a desperate situation.

Xiao Tianming could already vaguely see: the archers on the gate tower with their bowstrings fully drawn, the city gate slowly opening and the cavalry responding.

"Whoosh whoosh!" The sound of sharp arrows from the archers' brigade piercing the air was like a locust attack, flying overhead. It accurately nailed one thousand meters outside the main gate of Longyan City, blocking the orcs' pursuit route.

Xiao Yue, the "Prodigy of the Wolf Clan", slapped her mount hatefully, angrily saying in her heart: "Damn, it's just a little bit close! Just a little faster, a little faster..." Damn the scout team, the life-threatening bald man, and

Sentinels, if it weren't for them, these two people would never have been able to escape.

We can't let them run away like this, otherwise the plan will be ruined! "Bring me the bow!" Xiao Yue threw down the bow and arrow with the string broken in her hand, and took out an extremely gorgeous bow from her entourage.

Holding your breath and concentrating, gathering all the fighting energy in your body, all your resentment and hope are concentrated on this arrow. The bow body emits a full light, and even the bow and arrow hum softly.

Take action!

"Buzz!" The bow and arrow flew out like a meteor, pointing directly at the proud Xiao Tianming's back. It shot through the air without making any sound, showing its amazing power. The winner would be killed!

"Haha! I said, we can't die!" Xiao Tianming, who had narrowly escaped death, was extremely excited. He hadn't felt the thrill between life and death for a long time. Suddenly, like a bird stared at by a poisonous snake, a cold chill hit him.

With his heart in his mind, Xiao Tianming looked back subconsciously and saw a ray of light shooting towards his face. It was an arrow!

It’s too late to hide! Defend, there is no magic power, it’s impossible to defend!

Just when he was closing his eyes and waiting to die, a huge force came and pushed him hard on Xiao Tianming's shoulders, pushing him off the horse. Xiao Tianming looked up and saw only Wa Lan's pale and bloodless face and a knife piercing his chest.

Had a great time.

The sharp arrow brought up a stream of blood and poured it all on Xiao Tianming's face. The blood was so hot that it made the person dizzy.

"Bold! You actually dare to kill people under the city! Do you think I am the Yellow Dragon? Is there anyone who can't do it?" A roar resounded through the sky, and a flying figure from Longyan City came out across the city, volleying towards the Wolf Cavalry.

"Damn it! You're a useless person, ruining my life!" Xiao Yue was so angry that she even grabbed a handful of warg fur. After measuring the gap between herself and her opponent, Xiao Yue had no choice but to order: "Retreat! The entire army retreats!"

A burst of smoke filled the sky, and the wolf cavalry retreated quickly. The strong man who flew out seemed to be angered, and chased after him, and disappeared from sight after a while.

All this has nothing to do with Xiao Tianming. Xiao Tianming stared blankly at the pale face in front of him, and his ears kept echoing the young man's instructions to him several times: "If I die, you must kill me."

Save my soul and take me home!"

With tears in Xiao Tianming's eyes, he recited the curse that was hated by everyone in the mainland. His lips were so excited that he made several mistakes in reciting the words. He exhausted the last bit of magic power, pulled out Wa Lan's soul, placed it in a special crystal ball, and kept it well.

.

The young soul, with a peaceful face, seemed to be nodding and smiling at Xiao Tianming to express his gratitude...
