Chapter 442 The battle is over

The flames were burning and the smoke was billowing.

The fire burned really well.

Luo Penny Grant stood quietly in front of the northern gate of the Rock Fortress. A breeze shield surrounded her, isolating the choking smoke and dust in the air, and dozens of Iron Ranger soldiers. Standing behind her, everyone put on a full-coverage magic helmet. The goggles on the helmets of these warriors glowed slightly red, indicating that they were on guard against all magical anomalies around them.

The fire spread from the armory in Beicheng District, burning some sentry towers and barracks, and isolating the entire inner city into several parts. Originally, such a fire could be controlled by the troops of Rock Fortress , but with the collapse of the big shield, the order in the fortress has disappeared. Even if someone wants to stand up and turn the tide, it is impossible to achieve any effect in the face of the raging fire.

This fortress is finished.

Luo Penni 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 had imagined countless times what she would do if she gained the power of revenge one day. She had imagined that she would use various methods to torture those sinners, prolong their pain, and imagine how she would enjoy it. The joy of revenge, but now she finally knows that when she really has this opportunity, she will not have the patience to do it.

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

The last two people on the list have been removed. Luo Penny Grant exhaled softly, suddenly feeling a little empty.

Handling certain people personally is part of the deal between her and Gawain Cecil. She can dedicate everything in the Rock Fortress to the founding prince. The people in this city are Life or death is decided by the Cecil family, but only a few of them, including Viscount Carroll, the first to die, not only must die, but must also be dealt with by her personally.

"Madam, the emptiness after revenge is a normal phenomenon," Solderin's words suddenly interrupted Luo Penni's daze. She heard the high-level elf ranger use an extreme The cold but calming tone spoke to himself, "Don't be confused by this emptiness. You are finally freed from hatred - after this, there are still many things waiting for you to do."

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

"The minds of elves and humans are slightly different. I can't say who is more mature, but I do know more than you. In addition, you don't need to use honorifics to me."

"Okay ——I know you were a comrade-in-arms of Duke Gawain Cecil," Luo Penni said. She seemed to need something else to divert her attention. "In your opinion, what kind of person is Duke Gawain?"

“I still amHis comrades," Solderin smiled slightly, then shook his head, "and as for what kind of person Gawain is... this is a difficult question to answer. His personality after resurrection is slightly different from that of seven hundred years ago, but it still often gives me the feeling that I cannot see through it. He is always thinking about things beyond our sight. Seven hundred years ago, he was thinking about the wasteland in the wasteland. Asylum outside the earth, seven hundred years later, he simply began to think about another era, so if you want to follow him, then there is only one piece of advice I can give you: try to keep up with his pace, even if you Not understanding is better than being left behind in thinking and confusion. ”

Those who were left behind seven hundred years ago would be swallowed up by the wasteland, and those who were left behind seven hundred years later would not be much better off. Solderin had full intuition about this.

Luopeni Grant was lost in thought for a while, while Solderin suddenly raised his head and looked at the inner city streets that were shrouded in smoke and dust, his hand already on the bowstring of the short bow.

The surrounding Steel Ranger soldiers also raised their arms and opened the safety of the thermal ray gun and shield. The heavy firepower man had already carried the individual rail grenade launcher on his shoulder and pointed at the end of the street.

A group of knights and soldiers appeared there in the smoke and fire.

Luo Penni looked up and saw that the commander leading the group was Sir Maryland's most trusted one.

The guard knight also saw Countess Luo Penni opposite, and at the same time, he saw the neat and silent black-armored warriors wearing strange armor behind the countess-those who were full of magic. , the well-equipped people obviously cannot be the people in the Rock Fortress. The existence of these people is enough to prove that what Sir Maryland said before leaving is true.

Find Luo Penni Grant and her. It was not difficult to bring the "sabotage team" into the city, because this team was standing swaggeringly in the open space in Beicheng District. It was a waste of time to gather a group of soldiers who could listen to the orders clearly and had the courage to fight in the chaos. A lot of time: A large number of soldiers have died on the southern city wall and on guard towers and arrow towers in various parts of the city. The remaining people are also in chaos. Almost no one is obeying the order. The more than a hundred people around the Guards Knight are Almost all the men could be found in the castle.

After seeing the two corpses at the feet of Luo Penni, the knights of the guard realized that the countess had probably done what she wanted to do. .

Although the two corpses were wearing the clothes of a busboy and a groom, their faces looked very familiar.

The Guards Knight did not know why Luo Penni specifically killed these two southerners. Noble, but he must at least complete the mission entrusted to him by Sir Maryland——

The fortress can no longer be defended, the south wall is crumbling, and the two energy beams are still cleaning all the commanding heights in the city. Before the Cecils came in, all the defenses of this fortress had been paralyzed, but at least he wanted to keep Luo Penny Grant here.

But before these soldiers launched a meaningless attack. Previously, Mr. SolderingHe spoke first, and his voice passed through the entire smoke-filled street: "The battle is over, soldiers of the Rock Fortress - the wall has collapsed, and there is no need to continue fighting."

The Guards Knights were silent. Then he pulled out the sword from his waist: "I have my own mission."

"It is rare to see knights like you in this era," Solderin frowned and looked at the knight. Guards knight, although the soldiers and other knights brought by the other party were obviously shaken and flinched when they heard the words "the city wall has collapsed," the knight's attitude was still resolute, which made him sigh, "If those If the southern nobles had the same courage and awareness as you...ah, then they would probably all be dead on the Gravel Ridge."

The Guards Knight did not seem to hear these words, and just continued to remain silent and said to him. Take a step forward.

However, at this moment, the air near him suddenly distorted, and then a strange-looking, hammer-like thing emerged out of thin air. The magic rune on the front of the hammer flashed, and a special The pop-up structure was violently shot out, hitting the guard knight hard on the head - the latter had actually reacted slightly, but the attacker's stealth ability was too high, and by the time he reacted, he could not avoid it. , after a hammer hit, the respectable knight flew out on the spot and fell unconscious in mid-air.

The knights and soldiers guarding the surroundings did not even realize what happened.

A swift shadow shuttled through the air, and arrived behind Solderin almost in the blink of an eye. Amber's figure condensed out of the shadow, and she carried a handful of mechanical structures and runes. The weird weapon composed of devices, after confirming that he had run to a safe area, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh my god... it's so exciting... I thought I was going to be beaten to death..."

Solderlin I glanced at the half-elf thief out of the corner of my eye - mainly at the "mechanical warhammer" in her hand, and suddenly felt that after "explosive shooting", there was another transcendent skill that could be improved into one of the abilities of the Iron Ranger. One.

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

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

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

Solderin nodded after hearing the message conveyed by Amber, and then looked at the bewildered and chaotic Rock Fortress "defense forces": "Soldiers - now you can put down Weapons, your highest commander has fallen, surrendering at this time does not harm your honor."

Ordinary soldiers actually don't care much about "face" when surrendering. His words are mainly. Called to those knights who are still hesitant.

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

The last defense force of Rock Fortress put down their weapons, and the Iron Rangers began to step forward to accept prisoners of war. Solderin came to the side of the deeply comatose Guards Knight and looked down at him.

"It is not honorable to stop a knight's heroic act in this way, but the lord has an order to minimize unnecessary losses and casualties after victory. Knight, your courage is admirable, but The battle is over," Solderin said, shaking his head slightly, "Sooner or later you will understand - after enlightenment, you will eventually become a glorious citizen of Cecil."

Rock. Outside the fortress, on the bow of the "Aurora" on the Whitewater River, Gawain and Knight Byron were looking at the fortress walls that were constantly collapsing during the artillery bombardment. Sir Maryland, who had been disarmed, stood beside Gawain with a pale face. , looking at the nightmare scene in the distance.

The Aligner beam is still moving across the sky, and the last two towers in the Rock Fortress are collapsing.

In the river next to the Aurora, Tire leaned out of the churning water. The river lifted her up into the air like a hand. The sea monster from the deep sea widened her eyes and stared. He stared unblinkingly at the "Rainbow Cannon" on the deck of the Aurora.

In fact, she had been looking at it like this for a long time. The beam of pure and violent magic power was shining brightly in her eyes, which obviously aroused great interest in this sea monster.

A signal flare rose from the Rock Fortress, followed by a second one.

Gawain breathed out softly: "The battle on Solderin's side seems to be over, and Luo Penny Grant's team is also alive and well."

No. 2 The artillery fire from the high ground gradually ceased, and the huge Calibrator Rainbow Cannon finally extinguished its destructive focusing crystal. The constant roar from the various water pumps, amplifier groups, and magic cores below the cabin slowly weakened. , finally, the "Magic Array" on both sides of the warship also closed its steel wings.

It was quiet on the Baishui River.

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

The Byron Knight laughed, but he didn't have time to speak. , a sudden sound of water splash interrupted him.

Gawain saw a mermaid leaping out of the water and slapping on the deck of the Aurora. Then a carp stood up and turned over. Miss Tire used the fish tail to support her body precariously. , pointing at the rainbow cannon on the deck, staring at Gawain: "Give me one too!"

Then she seemed to feel that it was wrong to say this, and added: "Just do whatever you want. Say!”
