Chapter 473 Shadow (15)

"Oh, I remembered it." Dairos said while smiling and slapping his forehead with his left hand, "Well, Sophia Serafim.

If I remember correctly, you should be the only civilian special admissions student among the last graduates of the Imperial Military Academy.

And in the graduation exam, you defeated everyone and won the honor of the best student.

That's right." "Yes, sir!" "Yes.

It's really hard for you to get the appreciation of those old die-hards.

However, you should remember that it is a war and not a drill in the academy, so don't believe the situation in front of you easily.

Many times, quantity is scarier than quality." Dairos said, no longer paying attention to Sophia who looked confused, and slowly picked up the teacup at hand, poured himself some black tea and began to taste it slowly.

"But, but, the current Freedom Alliance army is like a group of sheep waiting to be slaughtered. If we launch an attack now, we will definitely crush their defense line." As Sophia spoke, she seemed to feel that the original sense of restraint and pressure was gradually diminishing.

Disappeared, "Now in the eyes of the Freedom Alliance, we are just like tigers.

No matter how large a group of sheep are, they can't resist a tiger's attack." "Hahaha.

What an interesting metaphor.

But when these words come from your girl's mouth, it sounds really awkward to me." Dairos suddenly laughed, and then he put down the teacup in his hand and continued, "Indeed, the Free Alliance army may want what you said.

We are a flock of sheep, but at best we are no more than a wounded tiger.

Six thousand versus twenty thousand.

No matter how elite the soldiers in my hands are, I'm afraid it will still cost a lot to completely make up for the numerical gap.

And how can you tell whether there is a shepherd dog lurking in the dark among the sheep?" "This..." Sofia didn't know how to answer for a moment.

At this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside, and then a messenger came in in a hurry, and said to Desi Lanslot: "Sir, the adjutant of Karubas has something to ask for!"

Huh?" After listening to the messenger's report, Desdalenslot frowned slightly as if he had something on his mind. Then he waved his hand and said, "Let him in." Soon, the adjutant hurried away.

Came in.

Judging from his tired look, he must have been traveling for several days and nights.

After seeing Distilancelot, the adjutant didn't even bother to take a breath, and immediately told Distilancelot exactly what Carubas had asked him to do and what he knew about the situation.

After listening to his words, the long smile on Desi Lanslot's face disappeared for the first time. He stood up with some seriousness and walked back and forth in the camp with his hands behind his back, seeming to be thinking about it.

Something very important.

After a long time, Distilancelot finally let out a long sigh, shook his head helplessly and seemed to be saying to himself: "Carubas, it was me who hurt you this time.

I was so careless as to let you work with Arubet." After a moment, Desdalenslot called his adjutant loudly, and then ordered: "Concentrate the spear camp immediately, and I will personally take people to the Dragon Soul Mountain Range.

"What! My lord, are you going in person? So what should we do here?" After hearing Desi Lanslot's order, the adjutant looked very surprised.

You must know that although Distilancelot advertised this attack with more than 10,000 soldiers, the actual total number of soldiers was only more than 6,000.

And most of them are directly under the Flame Dragon Infantry Regiment that Desi Lanslot urgently transferred from the rear.

If the 1,500-man pike battalion is removed from it, then this legion, which does not have a numerical advantage, will face greater pressure.

After all, the armies of the Freedom Alliance are not all soft persimmons.

"This is easy to handle." Desdalenslot said, pointing to Sofia, who had been silent on the side, and said, "Sofia Serafim, I now appoint you as the deputy legion of the Flame Dragon Heavy Infantry Regiment.

Commander, you will have full command of this army in my absence.

Do you understand?" "Me?" Although Sofia knew that the man in front of her had always been famous for being lazy and acting eccentrically, she just said a few words to herself and immediately mentioned herself to the deputy commander, and she could do it in his absence.

It was really hard for her to believe that what happened just now was not a dream.

"Is there a problem?" Desdellancelot could tell from the expression on Sofia's face what she was thinking at the moment, "Your task now is to bring this team back intact.

Although the Free Alliance's army is almost five times larger than yours, I have left all my most elite heavy infantry regiments to you. I believe you will not let me down." "Yes, Sofia will live up to your Majesty's entrustment.

"At this time, Sofia already knew that the man in front of her was not making fun of her, and immediately replied loudly.

"Well, good.

I know that the old guys above didn't like you, so they transferred you to me as a trainee sergeant.

But don't worry, I'm not the kind of rigid person who wants to die. As long as I can win the final victory on the battlefield, you can use whatever means you want.

Don't worry about it." After speaking, Stellancelot nodded with satisfaction and quickly walked out of the camp.

Fistan Fortress was built on a mountain road that connects the Dragon Soul Mountain Range from east to west. After the fall of Gale Valley, the Western Army immediately began to build the fortress along the Dragon Soul Mountain Range with all its strength.

Among them, the Fistan Fortress is the one that took the longest time to build and is also the strongest.

At this moment, Karubas is guarding here with only two thousand soldiers.

What they faced were the remnants of the Second Western Army of the Free Alliance and the vanguard of the Central Army that had just arrived, a total of more than 8,000 people.

And what made him feel most helpless was that although Festan Fortress was built quite solidly, the purpose of building this fortress was to prevent the Phylician Legion from attacking from the west, so only the east side of the entire fortress had considerable defense.

Ability, the west side is almost completely unprotected.

But this time he had to fight four times his opponent on the east side under such circumstances, which made it almost impossible to see the possibility of victory.

Not to mention that the opponent's army also includes a great magician and a swordsman who can single-handedly fight against the three most elite knights in the Royal Guards.

But Kalubas is still worthy of being one of the fierce generals of the Phylician Empire. Even at such a disadvantage, he still has no idea of ​​giving up.

Relying on the almost complete lack of city defense, he managed to withstand the Free Alliance's fierce attack on the first day, allowing the Western Legion to retreat in disgrace, leaving behind more than a thousand corpses.

However, when Bogosi's mercenary group and reinforcements from the Central Army arrived the next day, the situation gradually began to tilt in the direction of the Free Alliance.

On the third day of the fierce battle, the Phylician army finally began to fall into trouble due to its numerical disadvantage, and the battle was about to reach its final end.

However, while the Free Alliance army was attacking the fortress that had already seemed ethereal in the wind and rain, Edward, as the main force in the attack, was unable to participate. At this moment, he was tightly entangled in a mountainous area not far from the fortress.

When he and his companions were coordinating the army's attack, a Phylician cavalry squad suddenly appeared on his flank from nowhere.

After a while of charging, they were actually strangled with Edward's team. When Edward was about to rely on his own strength to charge into this team, he was stopped by a knight wearing armor engraved with a lion's head crest.

.

After several battles with this opponent who didn't seem to be too strong, Edward immediately felt something was wrong.

Although the man's sword skills are not very good, and the devil's fighting spirit combined with the magic imprint is not too dangerous to him, but every time this opponent makes a move, he almost always strikes with a desperate blow. If Edward wants to kill this man, it is not easy.

It's difficult, but if he really did that, I'm afraid he would have been injured by his opponent's dying blow before.

At this time, Edward struck the knight with a powerful and heavy horizontal slash. However, the opponent did not withdraw his sword and defend like the others. Instead, he rushed towards Edward more and more desperately, and the sword in his hand was aimed at Edward's throat fiercely.

Stab it through.

Seeing his opponent using such desperate moves again, Edward seemed a little helpless. He turned his wrist and raised his sword upwards, relying on the weight of the sword and his domineering fighting spirit to force this difficult opponent away.

But this time, the knight didn't seem to expect that Edward's sword was so powerful. Although he avoided the edge of the sword, he was still cut by the sword energy.

It may have been caused by Edward's full blow. After the mighty sword passed by in his hand, only a cracking sound was heard and the knight's helmet was completely split open by the sword energy, revealing a handsome face under the helmet.

"So you! The female knight of those three people last time?" Edward then remembered that among the three knights he faced when attacking Arrubet a few days ago, there was a female knight with both magic and martial arts skills.

I suffered a lot.

"That's right.

Edward Trendo! I, Fiona, swear on my own honor that I will use your blood to comfort Leo!" Fiona yelled and rushed forward while glaring at Edward.

At this moment, Edward could see the sadness and despair hidden in Fiona's eyes.

She simply came to seek death.

In the blink of an eye, Edward had guessed her thoughts.

Because he once heard Xi Lu mention to him the sad and empty look in Ellie's eyes.

After she left Sebion, Ellie was like this almost every moment.

"Is that person her sweetheart?" Edward no longer had the original murderous intention at this moment, but instead had a sense of guilt. He easily deflected Fiona's sword and did not intend to embarrass her too much.

However, Fiona didn't appreciate it at all. Facing the man in front of her who could easily take her own life, she still tried her best and took advantage of Edward's weakened momentum to attack one after another, actually forcing him to be unable to fight back.

force.

However, although Edward felt guilty, he knew that the place he was in was a battlefield and was not suitable for his random thoughts. However, he did not really want Fiona's life, so he made up his mind to let his opponent retreat before the difficulties.

Thinking of this, Edward roared, and instantly golden fighting spirit filled the divine sword in his hand.

Facing Fiona's sharp sword, Edward raised his hand and heard a sharp metal collision. Fiona was knocked five or six meters away with her sword, and fell to the ground.

"Forget it, I don't kill women.

Let's go." Watching Fiona fall to the ground, Edward said calmly.

But after Fiona stood up unsteadily, she ignored Edward. Instead, she looked at him with a strange look, and then smiled at him very strangely.

Suddenly, Fiona softly sang a spell that Edward could not understand at all, and a moment later a layer of blood-red light completely enveloped her.

Although he didn't know what kind of magic it was, Edward already felt a murderous aura from Fiona.

While screaming in his heart, he rushed towards Fiona quickly, and with the golden fighting spirit in his hand, the divine sword in his hand aimed at Fiona's shoulder and slashed it like lightning.

After a loud "clang" sound, Edward only felt numbness in his hands, and he took three or four steps back before barely regaining his balance.

But at this moment, if he hadn't activated all his fighting spirit, his sword would have been blown away after that blow.

At this time, Fiona took advantage of Edward's unsteady standing, screamed and rushed forward to attack, which made Edward embarrassed for a while.

After being injured one after another on his shoulders, arms, and chest, he finally managed to knock Fiona away with an elbow at the cost of being stabbed in the waist.

It wasn't until this moment that Edward noticed something strange about Fiona. At this moment, the muscles all over her body were inflated like balloons. The exposed blood vessels in her neck looked as if they were about to break through the protection of the skin at any time. Her eyes were also filled with blood.

Became blood red.

Seeing this situation, a word that even frightened Edward jumped into his mind - bloodthirsty.

This magic is generally only handed down to the shaman priests of the orc tribe. They use the power of magic to maximize the murderous heart and potential power in the body of the caster, thereby improving the combat effectiveness of the caster.

The longer this magic lasts, the stronger the effect it brings.

But compared with their advantages, their shortcomings are also very fatal. Although bloodthirsty can bring endless power, the person being cast may not be able to withstand this sudden power.

If the spell is cast for too long, the result will be death.

At this time, Fiona rushed forward madly again. Edward used all his strength to block her sword, and then shouted at her: "Are you crazy? Even if you beat me with something like that, you yourself

I'm afraid he would have died a long time ago.

Does this make sense?" But Edward did not wait for Fiona's answer. At this moment, her eyes had lost all their luster, and some of them were only eyes filled with blood and killing.

Edward already knew at this time that Fiona had already lost all her mind due to the bloodthirsty spell, and now I am afraid that only the death of one of them can stop the fight.
