Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 924: Night Of Chaos (2)
The mountain city camp lit up a bonfire, illuminating the independently controlled camp in the slightest. Hillo followed Remington's orders and even used the heavy cavalry that Rackard had painstakingly built. The infantry, lancers, cavalry, and heavy armored soldiers formed a thick, crescent-shaped formation, with the final flames and spears glaring covetously. Apart from not pulling up a few cannons, this was a formation that looked like it was facing a great enemy.
The soldiers were silent. Only the hiss of horses and the cracking of charcoal could be heard from time to time in the barracks. The atmosphere was solemn.
The Independent Camp was even quieter. The gate of the camp was tightly shut, and no one knew what was going on inside.
Mountain rain was approaching.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves rang out, and Hillo turned around. His QinBing squad split open a passage for the three riders to pass through. The leader was Remington. The Count and his son were fully armored. They held a luxurious one-handed sword in their hands and wore a brown cloak to hunt in the wind. They were quite impressive. There was a cavalry riding on each side of Remington, and the knights were all covered in hooded cloaks, revealing only their eyes, hands, and feet, appearing mysterious.
However, both of these auras were extraordinary, and Hillo sensed them. The aura of the person on the left was like a black hole. Hillo's perception was like mud bulls entering the sea, unable to detect its depth. The person on the right's aura was as brilliant as flames. The moment Hillo touched it, his perception was as if it had been thrown into a furnace. It was instantly burned clean. At this moment, the man looked at him, his eyes suddenly lit up, like clouds of fire. Hillo hurriedly turned his face away, but his eyes still hurt and tears flowed out of Bo Po's eyes.
So terrifying.
Hillo was shocked.
With the sound of horse hooves approaching, Hillo hurriedly dismounted from his horse and bowed to Remington's subordinates. Remington was very satisfied. He nodded and said, "Commander Hillo, how are the arrangements?"
"We have already followed Young Master's instructions. We are ready to break through the camp and charge into the formation." Hillo thought for a moment and asked, "May I know who these two are?"
Remington smiled and said, "Don't worry, General Hillo. They are my strongest helpers. With them here, the outsiders can only surrender."
Hillo's suspicions were not fully resolved, but it was hard to say anything else. He said, "Then Young Master, please give the order to attack the camp."
At the end of Remington's reply, there was a loud boom from Independence Camp. Remington sat on his horse and saw that the fence of the camp had fallen inside, causing a clamor to rise in all directions. This sudden change made the soldiers of Mountain City sweat profusely. Hillo ignored Remington's orders and got on his horse. Remington wanted to follow suit, but he reached out to grab the reins for the man on the right. He looked at the man and Alan's voice sounded from within the cloak, "But there's no need to risk your life by acting like that."
"Didn't you say you wanted to wash me clean? How can I show sincerity if I don't go into battle and receive two stabs?" Remington said embarrassedly.
Allen said calmly, "The outsiders have accumulated 800 elite soldiers in Mountain City. Although there are 5,000 soldiers in Mountain City, excluding the city defense, there are only 3,000 people available." It wasn't that he couldn't eat this outsider army, but it would eventually damage his vitality. If I just cleaned you up, the price would be a little high. So you let Hillo watch and pretend later. If the outsiders plan to retreat, let them go first. If you want to make a contribution, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. "The next time an outsider army arrives, even if you die, I won't stop you."
Remington said shamelessly, "I died in battle. Who will watch the door for you?"
Alan didn't answer.
Remington smiled and said, "But if we let them off like this, I, the new city lord, will not be very impressive."
"Don't worry, there are two of us here. We will always give you a head of a leader as a gift to take over Mountain City."
"I'm relieved." Remington's legs clutched the horse's abdomen and he rode his horse to catch up with Hillo.
Alan looked at the horse on the left. Belmord, who was in the cloak, knew what was going on. He turned his horse around and quietly left the barracks.
At this time, Remington briefly explained the main points of the operation, and Hillo nodded in agreement. A cold aura rushed out from the independent camp, and it was like a blade cutting through a person's body. Remington trembled, and Hillo frowned. It was clearly the aura of an outsider. Thinking back and forth, it was only the demon named Gonza. As expected, a hoarse voice that was as unpleasant as a sharp knife cutting through iron sand rang out, "Humans, do you intend to violate the Covenant? Where is Rackett? I want to ask him what he is up to!"
Remington's battle prowess was negligible, but his courage was not bad. The name of the mad dog wasn't barked in vain. He went mad, and he didn't just pick all the soft persimmons and pinch them. "Rackett is dead! This man who colluded with the Shadow Duchy is not worthy to be the master of Mountain City. He is not worthy to be my father. Listen, you monsters, I, Remington, am in charge of Mountain City now. Today, for the sake of the empire, I will clean up the dirt of your Mountain City!"
The enemy formation quieted down, and then the unpleasant voice laughed, "Alright, looks like we can't stay in Mountain City anymore. But it's too ugly to go back empty-handed. Let's give our army a farewell party with your head as the new Mountain City Lord!"
A streak of black lightning flashed out from the enemy camp and crossed the night sky under the flames. It was like a black river floating in the air as its aura surged towards Remington!
Hillo roared as the horse-side sword was unsheathed. The commander jumped off his horse and slashed towards the black river.
Two icy cold lights lit up in the black river, and a tributary of the black river shot towards the Hillo sword. Under the intense ear-piercing friction, Hillo was forcefully pushed away by a huge force. Seeing the black river descend, Remington was stunned. He was about to become the shortest-lived lord in the history of Mountain City.
Remington's pupils contracted, and there was nothing else in his line of sight but the black river that had crossed the sky.
The world became silent. Paradoxically, his bellows-like heartbeat was exceptionally clear.
At this moment, the sound of his heartbeat was covered by a crisp cry.
That was the sound of the saber being unsheathed.
Hillo fell onto the field, and at the corner of his eye, he saw a scarlet saber light rising from the battle formation. When the saber light and saber intent reached their peak, the scarlet saber light took a sharp turn and aimed at the black river that descended from the sky. In an instant, the Red Saber Black River collided with each other, causing the entire barracks to jump violently. Then, a large amount of chaotic sonic booms echoed in the space!
The Black River exploded.
Someone cried out, bouncing up from the black river, drawing an arc and flying back, but he didn't forget to shout, "Who are you?"
When Alan landed on the ground, Red King, who was hanging from his cloak, was trembling slightly. There were a few blue fireflies on the edge of the blade. The blade of Red King's saber flashed red, and the blue firefly transformed into flames. Ellen did not answer. He withdrew his saber and retreated to stand beside Remington.
Only then did Hillo fall to the ground.
The Guild Leader hurriedly flipped over and bounced up, looking at Alan with great confidence. With such an expert in charge, no wonder Remington was so calm and composed. However, Hillo was curious as to where Remington could find such an expert. Unfortunately, Hillo didn't see the way Remington looked at that person. He didn't look like a superior looking at a subordinate. Instead, he looked like a flattering subordinate.
Alan whispered in his cloak, "Here they come."
After that, four hundred troops rushed out of the crowd of independent camps.
These outsiders were skinny and their skin shone with a dim metallic luster under the flames. They bent down and ran forward, and they could clearly see that these outsiders' bones were exposed, emitting a row of blade-like bone fragments. From the outside of their arms, sharp bone blades stretched out!
Alan could clearly see under the flames that these outsiders whose eyes flickered with icy cold light were the Blade Demons of Nether Domain Star.
Ellen was already shocked to see the Naga Clan living on other planets before. He didn't expect to bump into the Blade Demon in Mountain City. Alan's mind flashed with lightning. Could it be that Shadow Duchy's so-called outsiders were Blade Demons? This thought hadn't disappeared yet. After the Blade Demon, another hundred tall, heavily armored, and rough warhammer-dragged outsider warriors ran out of the camp. These hundred warriors were even more arrogant than the Blade Demon Cultivator.
What shocked Alan was that these outsiders had rhinoceros-like brains. The Gatu Berserkers, who should have lived on Barbarian Stone, had now appeared in Alan's line of sight.
Fortunately, the remaining 300 outsider warriors weren't Kidds or Grai Giants, but some alien lifeforms that even Alan didn't recognize. Only after such an outsider army rushed out of the camp did the outsider expert who attacked Remington walk out of the dust. Under the fire, Alan could clearly see that it was also a Saber Demon, but it was much stronger than a Saber Demon soldier. Sharp, ice-cold spikes appeared from many parts of his body. It seemed that his physique had undergone a transformation. Allen had roughly figured out from the collision with him just now that the other party possessed a strength of Level 25.
He was on the same level as Rackett, but whether it was his Saber Demon Physique or his Killing Technique, he was a bit higher than the old Earl.
He hooked his fingers at Alan provocatively.
Alan smiled and said to Remington, "You hide behind me and I'll play with that guy."
Then, he bypassed the two armies that were about to clash head-on and rushed towards the outsider expert.
Along the way, Saber Demon soldiers boldly rushed over. Before they could approach, Alan's scarlet saber light flickered and the Saber Demon soldiers all disintegrated. The wounds were as smooth as mirrors, but the pitch-black charcoal charred wounds were directly sealed by the high temperature that the Crimson King restrained.
Hillo commanded loudly.
The hundred Gatu Berserkers had already squeezed out the Blade Demon soldiers from before, and it seemed like they were going to charge into the battle formation of Mountain City head-on. Hillo didn't dare to use spears to deal with this kind of foreign Berserker. The spears could restrain light cavalry, but when used against Berserkers, those spears were too slender. Hillo made up his mind and threw the heavy cavalry that Rackett had nurtured into the battlefield.
Originally, there were 200 heavy cavalry. Twenty of them were wrecked on the Absolute Shadow Highland. The remaining 180 cavalry formed an arrow formation to meet the Gatu Berserkers. The 500 light cavalry followed closely behind, followed by a thick formation formed by 2,000 soldiers. As for the fire and spear squads, they had already opened fire to cover them. However, the power of the fire spear was similar to that of an outsider Berserker.
