Catalog of the Lost - a searing epic

Midnight passed, and it was supposed to be dawn, but the sky was still not bright.

Thick dark clouds accumulate in the air, obscuring the stars and moonlight, everything in the darkness is always so quiet, people walking in it can't care to appreciate and enjoy, quiet can only be dead silence at this moment, the breeze is biting cold, and the dark night brings only despair.

As they were about to reach their intended location, Emer ordered everyone to extinguish their torches so as not to startle the snakes, but there was no light tonight, so the team stopped and waited for their eyes to adjust to the darkness before moving forward.

Panic grows in the pitch darkness, and the soldiers can only rely on whispered chats to relieve their emotions during the time when their eyes are used to the darkness, but at such times, there is usually no good topic to talk about.

"What does the enemy look like? It can't really be a tall giant with three heads and six arms, and if we fight them, will we survive?"

"You must live, your mother is still waiting for you at home, unlike me, there is nothing to worry about, this cheap life is dead. "

"Fart, you, who is different, Mom and Dad starved to death in the fleeing team, were abducted and trafficked into soldiers, even then everyone is still alive, if you want me to say, hide for a while, wait for Lord Emel to give the order to retreat, if you have a father and mother, go to find your parents, and if you don't have a father, go to the back to tell them the enemy's information, I heard that the people who survived the front line can still get a captain as a captain. "

"Hmph, to put it lightly, half of the imperial kingdom is gone, thinking about being an official, thinking about the use of making money, if you die, there will be nothing, you have to fuck them, kill those bunch of dog nobles, cut off their heads and put them in front of his parents, and tell those bastards to rob us of money and land, hey, I heard that you seem to have seen the imperial people, what do you look like?".

"I can't remember, anyway, my whole body is covered in blood, and the stick in my hand is longer than the two of us combined, and it hits the person and smashes it directly and even the person with the armor is smashed, I ran away in fear, but this time, I can't save my life if I escape, it's better to him, I can kill one by one. "

"Don't worry, even if we die, we will die, there are heroes Emel and Yuni who do not fall into the fortress, even if I die, I have to hold my last breath, watch the pile of dog offal stir into pieces and then close my eyes, maybe I still have the strength to make up for another sword." "

"Don't worry, we will definitely survive, and when we win, we will slaughter all those nobles, and no one will rob us again, and we will be able to live by ourselves." "

The shuffling of chatter made Emer's heart feel mixed, and he grew angry.

It's supposed to be a simple thing to do because what you have done is your own, but why hasn't it been possible all along?

Just

because of Zwei, Emer thinks that there is always a solution that can be solved without sacrifice, so that when all the real realities are in front of him, he still wants to agree with his own ideas, forcing the ignorance of all objective factors, even if the outcome is foreseeable.

Shree Gosho's words rang through Emer's mind at this moment, and his voice said: 'If there is a solution in front of you, don't take chances, you never know if you will get good or bad if you miss the opportunity.' ’

Emel must admit that Shrae Gosho was right.

Just then, Yoni reminded, "It's time, Emer. "

Only then did Emel come back to his senses and asked Dulmann beside him: "Can you see your surroundings a little more clearly now?" "

"I can see it, but I don't know very well," and as he said, Durman's face suddenly grimaced, "It's too dark, Lord Emer, and even if we meet the Imperials, we can't fight." "

If you light a torch, you will be exposed, and you will not be able to fight without lighting a torch, and Emer is in a dilemma, and Yuni cannot find a solution to it.

Emel and Yoni agreed that as long as they took advantage of the night to ambush and catch the enemy by surprise, they would seize the first step in the battle, which would be decisive for the outcome, but it was too dark for most soldiers to fight in this environment even if they adapted to the darkness, and if they encountered the enemy at this time, they would only end up being slaughtered.

In desperation, Emel prepared for the soldiers to light the torches and decided to turn the place into a battlefield to block the enemy, but before he could give the order, Yuni stopped him.

Yuni squatted down as if he had stepped on something, touched something like a liquid on the ground with his hand, put it on his nose and sniffed it, suddenly became flustered, and said, "Emer, this is... Blood, or new. "

Although he couldn't see Yuni's face clearly, Emer could hear his horror in his voice.

Suddenly, there was a roar at the front of the group, which Emel remembered from the Battle of Domanik, and the roar that had deafed one ear, just behind the hill in front of the group, and very close.

Emel then ordered: "Retreat!".

But a few seconds after the order, a hoarse roar came from behind the hillside, not the voice of the Imperials, but the voice of soldiers like them.

There

was fighting behind the hillside ahead, and the battle was unclear on Emer's side, but from the hoarse voice, it could be heard that the soldiers who were fighting the Imperials were exhausted.

There are people in it who have fought with the Imperials. Emer thought.

He immediately stopped the order to evacuate, lit a torch, and ordered: "Stop evacuating!

Hearing this order, Emer's team stopped evacuating, quickly entered the battle mode, lit torches, and ran behind Emer.

But by the time they ran over the hill, the sound of the battle had completely dissipated.

Through the light of the fire, everyone saw the hellish scene ahead.

The

torn corpses were scattered on the ground irregularly, various fragments of organs slowly flowed out of their corpses, and most of the armor responsible for protecting them was tattered, and a sea of scarlet blood flowed under this mountain of corpses.

The soldiers of Emel fell to the ground the moment they saw this, and when their hands touched the ground, they realized that the river of blood had flowed up the hill, and they looked around through the firelight, and the fragments of corpses walked beside them, and some even stepped on a piece of someone's flesh on the way to the road.

Is this what the enemy did?

How could I possibly defeat an enemy who could do such a thing.

Despair unconsciously welled up in the minds of the soldiers.

Emel did not care for them, raised his torches, and ran forward, the light of the fire illuminating one dead after another, and among them there were tall Imperial figures, all with swords and spears, and some of the soldiers were even hanging on the bodies of the enemy until the last moment.

It's almost there, it's almost there.

Emel ran to the place where he had just heard the voice, and sure enough, there was a man lying there, beside him was an Imperial man who had been decapitated.

Emel tossed the torch in the bunch, picked him up, and said, "Hold on, we'll take you to treatment." "

But the man refused, ignoring Emer, and looked around, at those who had just died in battle with him, and thanks to themselves they were able to cut off the heads of the enemy, and then he wept, tears in his eyes.

Suddenly, Emel touched his abdomen, but only here, and his lower body had been amputated by the waist, and there was no chance of survival.

Helplessness instantly invaded Emer's heart, and another soldier died in front of him, and the surrounding scene seemed to be a replica of the Numen Hall, and once again, Emel deeply hated his own powerlessness.

"Get out of here, no... Reinforcements. "

With that, the soldier was out of breath.

At the same time, Yuni looked to see if there were any survivors, but the result must have been desperate, he shook his head at Emer who was looking at him, and counted the dead Imperial people at the scene, a total of five corpses.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew on the earth, blowing away the dark clouds, which seemed to be blowing to disperse the clouds at this moment, and at this moment, the cunning moonlight and starlight shone again on the land, but it was too late.

"It's a good place," Yoni smiled as he walked up to Emer, "good for an ambush." "

Emer looked at the sea of corpses and blood, took a deep breath, and said to Duerman, who was still standing behind him although his legs were weak: "Hide with all the soldiers, we are ambushed here." "

After receiving the order, Durman immediately took the frightened soldiers into hiding, and Yoni also selected a few brave soldiers, took them aside, ordered them to roll in a pool of blood with him, and then piled up pieces of the soldiers' flesh on his body, and just lay down in the pile of corpses.

Emel didn't hide, he just stood there, in the middle of this hell, waiting for the Imperials to attack, but the Imperials did not come.

The soldiers lying behind the hillside gradually calmed down, and instead felt anger, looking at the corpses of those soldiers who were like themselves, and the unquenchable anger burned in their hearts.

Slowly, as the day dawned, Emel finally saw the figure of the Imperial.
