Chapter 442 The Battle Is Over

The flames were burning, and the smoke was billowing.

The fire was really good.

Ropeney Grant stood quietly in front of the northern gate of the Rock Fortress, surrounded by a breeze shield, blocking the choking smoke in the air, and dozens of Iron Ranger soldiers stood behind her. Everyone wore a full-coverage magic helmet, and the goggles on these warrior helmets glowed red, indicating that they were alerting all the magic around them.

The fire spread from the armory in the Beicheng District, burned down part of the towers and barracks, and isolated the entire inner city into several parts. Originally, such a fire could be controlled by the troops of the Rock Fortress. The collapse of the shield, the order in the fortress has disappeared, even if someone wants to stand up to turn the tide, it is impossible to achieve any effect in the face of the already burning fire.

The fortress is over.

Luo Penny?? Grant lowered her head and looked at the two corpses that were particularly warm. After a long silence, she raised her hand and gently rubbed her fingers.

She has imagined countless times what she will do when she gains the power of revenge, imagined that she will use all kinds of methods to torture those sinners, prolong their suffering, and imagine how she will enjoy the pleasure of revenge, but Now she finally knows that when she really has this opportunity, she will not have the patience to do it at all.

She didn't even have the patience to let those people take another breath of air.

The last two people on the list had been removed, and Ropeney Grant exhaled softly, suddenly feeling a little empty.

Dealing with certain people by hand is part of her deal with Gawain?? Cecil, she can dedicate everything in the rock fortress to the founding grand duke, and the people in this city will be sacrificed for life or death. The Sear family was up and down, but only a few of them—including the first Viscount Carroll who died, not only had to die, but she had to deal with it herself.

"Ma'am, emptiness after revenge is a normal phenomenon," Solderling's voice suddenly interrupted Ropeni's absent-minded state, she heard the high-level elf ranger use an extremely cold but emotional The calm tone was speaking to himself, "Don't be confused by this emptiness, you are finally free from hatred-after this, there are still many things waiting for you to do."

"Thank you," Ropeney calmed down and thanked Solderling, "Mr. Ranger, as an elf... you must be more knowledgeable and mature than me."

"The mind of an elves is slightly different from that of a human being. I can't say who is more mature, but I do know more things than you. Besides, I don't need to use honorifics.

"

"Okay—I know you were Gawain?? Duke Cecil's comrade-in-arms," ​​Ropeney said, and she seemed to need something else to distract herself, "What do you think Duke Gawain is? people?"

"I'm still his comrade-in-arms," ​​Soldering smiled slightly, then shook his head, "and what kind of person Gawain is... This is a difficult question to answer. His personality after resurrection and the seven A hundred years ago, it was a little different, but it still often gave me the feeling that I couldn't see through. He was always thinking about things beyond our sight. Seven hundred years ago, he was thinking about the shelter outside the wasteland on the wasteland. Seven hundred years later, he simply started thinking about another era, so if you want to follow him, there is only one piece of advice I can give you: try to keep up with him, even if you don't understand, it's better than thinking And left behind in confusion."

Those who fell behind 700 years ago will be swallowed by the wasteland, and those who fall behind 700 years later will not end up much better. Solderling has a full intuition about this.

Ropeney Glenn was lost in thought for a while, while Soldering suddenly raised his head and looked at the inner city streets shrouded in smoke, his hand was already on the bowstring of the short bow.

The surrounding Iron Ranger soldiers also raised their arms and turned on the safety of the heat ray gun and shield. The heavy fireman had already carried the individual rail grenade launcher on his shoulders and pointed to the end of the street.

A group of knights and soldiers who were quite embarrassed in the smoke and flames appeared there.

Ropeney raised her head and saw that the commander leading the team was the most trusted knight of the guards of Sir Maryland.

The knights of the guards also saw the Countess Ropeni on the opposite side, and at the same time, they saw the neatly silent black armored warriors behind the Countess wearing strange armors - those who were full of magic power and well-equipped obviously couldn't be in the rock fortress. The existence of these people is enough to prove that what Sir Maryland said before he left was true.

It was not difficult to find Ropeni??Glen and the "destroy team" she brought into the city, because this team stood struttingly in the open space in the northern city, but in the chaos, they assembled a group of people who could hear the order clearly, Soldiers who had the guts to fight wasted too much time: a large number of soldiers have died on the southern city wall and on the outposts and arrow towers throughout the city, and the rest are in chaos, almost no one still obeys orders, and the knights themselves The more than 100 people around are almost all the hands that can be found in the castle.

After seeing the two corpses at Ropeni's feet, the knight of the guards realized that the baroness might have done what she wanted to do.

Although the two corpses were dressed in the clothes of handymen and grooms, their faces were very familiar.

The Knights of the Guards did not know why Ropeney wanted to kill these two southern nobles, but at least he had to complete the mission that Sir Maryland had given him—

The fortress can no longer be defended, the southern city wall is collapsing, and the two energy beams are still cleaning all the commanding heights in the city. Before the Cecils came in, all the defense forces of the fortress were paralyzed, but at least, he To keep Ropeney Glenn here.

But before the soldiers launched their senseless attack, Soldering spoke first, his voice through the smoke-filled streets: "The battle is over, the soldiers of the Rock Fortress - the walls are down, continue the fight It's unnecessary."

The knight of the guards pulled out the sword on his waist in silence: "I have my own mission."

"I rarely see a knight like you in this era," Soldrin frowned at the guard knight, although the soldiers and other knights brought by the other party were obviously obvious when they heard the words "the city wall has collapsed". They were all shaken and withdrawn, but the knight's attitude was still firm, which made him sigh, "If those southern nobles had the same courage and consciousness as you... ah, then they would probably have died on the gravel ridge. ."

The guard knight didn't seem to hear these words, and just continued to be silent and took a step forward.

However, at this moment, the air near him suddenly distorted, and then a strangely shaped thing like a hammer appeared out of nowhere in the air. The magic rune at the front of the hammer flashed, and a special pop-up structure was violently struck. , smashed hard on the head of the guard knight-the latter had actually reacted slightly, but the attacker's stealth ability was too high, when he reacted, it was inevitable, after a hammer hit, The venerable knight flew out on the spot, unconscious in mid-air.

The knights and soldiers guarding around didn't even realize what was going on.

A swift shadow shuttled through the air, and came to Soldering's back almost in the blink of an eye. Amber's figure condensed from the shadow. She was carrying a strange weapon composed of a mechanical structure and a rune device. After confirming that he ran to the safe area, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Mom...it's so exciting...I thought I was going to be beaten to death..."

Solderin glanced at the half-elf thief out of the corner of his eye—mainly the "mechanical warhammer" in her hand, and suddenly felt that after "explosive shooting", there was another superhuman skill that could be improved into a steel game. One of the abilities of cavalry.

——Which genius came up with such a thing as "Power Sap (Note)"...

Amber raised his head after taking a few breaths, and said to Soldrin: "Gawain... The lord's side has ended the battle, and the top commander of the Rock Fortress has been captured. The battle is about to end, reduce the scale of damage."

In this case, the half-elf would still say "Lord" properly.

Soldrin nodded after hearing the news from Amber, and then looked at the rock fortress "Defense Force" that was at a loss and had begun to chaotic: "Soldiers - now you can lay down your weapons, your highest command. The official has fallen, and surrendering at this time is not detrimental to honor."

Ordinary soldiers don't really care about "face" when they surrender. He mainly shouted these words to those knights who were still a little hesitant.

It turns out that most knights are no slower than ordinary soldiers to surrender when there are steps to go down.

The last defenders of the rock fortress put down their weapons, the Iron Rangers began to step forward to accept the prisoners of war, and Solderling came to the knight of the guard who had been in a deep coma and looked down at each other.

"It is not honorable to stop a knight's heroism in this way, but the lord has orders to minimize unnecessary losses and casualties after victory, knight, your courage is admirable, but the battle is over," Thor When Delin said this, he shook his head slightly, "You will understand sooner or later - after indoctrination, you will eventually become a glorious citizen of Cecil."

Outside the Rock Fortress, on the bow of the "Aurora" on the White Water River, Gao Wenzheng and Knight Byron are watching the fortress walls that are constantly collapsing under the artillery bombardment. Sir Maryland, who has been disarmed, stands with a pale face on Gao Wenshen. Beside, watching the nightmarish scene in the distance.

The calibrator beam was still moving in the sky, and the last two towers of the rock fortress were collapsing.

In the river water beside the Aurora, Tyr leaned out from the churning water, and the river lifted her into the air like a palm. The sea monster from the deep sea widened his eyes and looked at the aurora without blinking. The "Rainbow Cannon" on the deck of the No.

In fact, she had been watching this for a long time, and the beams of pure and violent magic power shone in her eyes, obviously arousing the great interest of the siren.

A flare rose from the rock fortress, followed by a second.

Gawain exhaled softly: "The battle on Solderling's side seems to be over, and Ropeney Grant's team is also alive and well."

The artillery fire from the No. 2 Highland gradually ceased, and the huge calibrator rainbow light cannon finally extinguished its devastating focusing crystal. The roar of various pumps, amplifier groups, and magic cores under the cabin slowly followed. It weakened, and finally, the "magic array" on both sides of the warship also closed its steel wings.

It was quiet on the White Water River.

Gawain glanced at Knight Byron next to him: "We can go to receive our northern gate."

Knight Byron laughed, but before he could speak, a sudden splash of water interrupted him.

Gawain saw a mermaid jumping out of the water and slapped on the deck of the Aurora with a clatter, and then a carp stood up and turned over. Miss Till supported her body with her fish tail wobbly, and pointed at the fish on the deck. Hongguang Cannon, staring at Gao Wen: "Give me one too!"

Then she seemed to think it was wrong to say so, and added: "Just say whatever you want!"

(Note: Power Sap, a modified version of Cecil's stalker skill "Sap", slams the enemy's head with a mechanical power hammer, causing a temporary or permanent stun effect.)
