Chapter 240: A Good Punch!
Occasionally, soh the muddy and slippery road would slip and fall
At the et heavier
The road through the valley was not too long and was only around 200his ht of the rear of the enemy soldiers…
The ene line Even the ular army found it hard to maintain their foruely able to see nearly half of the enemy soldiers… a doubt rose within his s were too peaceful!
Their present location was very close to the mouth of the valley That should be where Merlin had laid his a should have passed!
Yet, despite the disorderlyfrom an a rong!
However, by then, it was too late for hi
The 100 mercenaries under his co point in battle…
Courageously swarm forward!
A one-eyedpiece of rock and let loose a loud roar!
His roar instantly alerted the enemy soldiers in front
Chaos broke out in the rear part of the enemy lines Some of the soldiers shouted out in panic However, due to the heavy rain, the shouts and exclamations became intermittent and were not too clear
The spread of the chaos did not happen very fast
By then, the distance between the charging mercenaries and the enemy soldiers were less than 100 meters!
Chen Xiaolian swore inwardly
Didn’t you say this was supposed to be an ambush?
Didn’t you say I am only here to help out?
Didn’t you say I was only supposed to block off the ene the 100 ht with him, none of them were archers! That e His e in a melee battle!
The number of htning suddenly arced through the night sky, instantly illu!
The brief instant of light allowed the two sides to see each other
The battle was joined!
…
The one-eyedhis axe The soldiers froet into a defensive posture – more accurately, many of them did not even have the ti in the rear finally recollected himself only to see that one-eyed mercenary arrive before him The axe descended and his head was split into two!
TheHe kicked the soldier’s corpse away before pouncing onto the ene a shield However, before he could raise the shield up, the surface of the axe slaround, shield in tow – aetting up would not be easy
Additionally, a foot fell heavily upon his body!
It would appear that this fellow had suffered from broken ribs Blood sprayed out from his mouth and his shield fell to the side Before he could turn over, another er into the soldier’s neck!
Blood sprayed out yet again and the soldier becaed into the rear part of the ene wave of flash flood!
Like a pack of wolves, the ed forward and the enemy line collapsed alrasp the number of enemies they faced Many of the London soldiers were overwhelmed with fear This mental blow caused no small number of them to mentally collapse
Some of the London soldiers madly ran away in both directions The officers of the arrily swore and bellowed in a voice that could cut into one’s bones…
The first confrontation between them resulted in the couard areously, seely invincible
However, this situation did not last for long
When the sound of the horn rang out, the London aranize an effective resistance
They were the regular army after all More and more soldiers equipped with helmet, armour and shields ether
A siet a taste of this wall’s poas the axe wielding, one-eyedup front
The fellow had probably gone berserk froed all the way up to his head Not only did he cleave down on the shield wall, even his body slaround, he saw a long spear poking out froh it was only a sharpened stick, it could still easily stab into hih the bottom part of his chin!
More and more of the mercenaries slammed themselves upon the shield wall However, the durable shields with cross emblem upon them only shook as the London soldiers behind the shields exerted their ht and used their bodies to maintain the shield forether to form a second team, then the third tea the shield wall appear more solid!
The mercenaries’ attacks on the shield ere akin to waves lapping on the rock
Broken!
The ones sprawling on the ground and rolling about were mostly the soldiers from London These men were the ones in the rear ere defeated by the first wave earlier No sround was filled with corpses However, most of them were injured
Due to the mud, neither side could make out which of them were allies or enemies Both sides were like a bunch of monkeys covered in radually became more orderly Then, the co from behind the shield wall
When the first arro out, Chen Xiaolian knew things were about to take a turn for the worse!
This army had archers!
One of the captains that he appointed yesterday was standing somewhere less than 10 feet away from hily pierced through his skull and into his brain as theto the ground, lifeless!
The mercenaries’ forward momentum was utterly blocked off by the shield wall
Further from behind the shield wall It appeared that the London soldiers were gradually cal down
No doubt about it, the enemy commander was a powerful character!
More arrows fleard theoff several mercenaries
At that an to move forward!
“Bei Tai!”
Chen Xiaolian shouted
Bei Tai was quick to respond He had his foot on one of the London soldiers and was pulling out a sword from the soldier’s body when he heard Chen Xiaolian’s shout He rapidly raised his head and turned to look at Chen Xiaolian
Bei Tai took a deep breath He turned around to look at the shield wall Without showing any hesitation, he tossed away the sword that he was holding Then, he bent down to pick up a shield with the cross emblem on its surface left by one of the soldiers He positioned the shield before hith of an Awakened whose body had been enhanced before was naturally not soh there were three layers to the shield wall, creating a hole in it was not an issue for Bei Tai!
One of the shields froed in through the shield wall!
He grabbed onto a sword held by one of the soldiers and sent that soldier in question flying with a kick Next, he began slashing out madly Two cut off limbs flew into the air Then, Bei Tai sla the third down the ground After that, he viciously sliced the fourth soldier’s head…
He followed it up by rolling on the ground
Doing so allowed hi weapons aih and arrived
Chen Xiaolian orously slammed away the shield positioned before hi, shields in tow After breaking through the shield wall, Chen Xiaolian quickly moved to stand beside Bei Tai
In his hand was an axe
He unleashed the De of Confusion’s Three Axesbefore him were quickly felled
Chen Xiaolian and Bei Tai stood back to back and he stepped forward to receive the incoe but instead chose to step forward!
Pu!
The sword pierced through Chen Xiaolian’s outer clothing However, underneath it was his Meteor Rock exclusive protective suit!
His protective suit had a [B] class defence, soh Chen Xiaolian keptthe sword and the brave soldier to fall backward
Chen Xiaolian’s axe savagely split apart the shield beside and shouted, “Forward and kill!”
After Chen Xiaolian and Bei Tai relied on their advantage in strength to break through the shield wall, they tore out an even bigger hole in the enee inside!
A chaotic and aard melee ensued within the valley!
Neither side could see clearly as the heavy rain continued pouring down In fact, so their eyes
Both the rain and wind grew stronger Additionally, the rus of thunder would echo out fro roar of the thunder could see from the valley
Chen Xiaolian had lost count of the number of times he brandished his axe He had also lost count of the number of men he killed – 30? 40?
Amid the ordinary soldiers, Bei Tai and Chen Xiaolian becas!
They broke apart the London army’s shield wall Without the protection of the shield wall, the soldiers froe in a ht up the torches!”
The commander on the enemy side shouted out in fury, “Lancers!”
Several torches were raised However, Chen Xiaolian quickly charged toward them
He realized that within the darkness, it was possible to maintain this battle!
Once proper illumination was achieved, the enemy side would be able to rely on their nu torches beca him, Bei Tai also did the sary roar!
A loud neigh rang out!
Men on both sides quickly retreated as a warhorse galloped through the chain mail He held a hammer in his hand as he rode forward and the ha down!
The charge of the warhorse added to the momentum behind the hammer!
Chen Xiaolian subconsciously raised the axe in his hand to block the attack
Booe force behind the hammer
The ordinary axe he held in his hand was broken off froood shape either He had originally thought that by channelling thewarhorse, he would be able to send Chen Xiaolian flying Unexpectedly, the one he encountered turned out to be an inhuht sitting on top of the warhorse coughed out a mouthful of blood
Chen Xiaolian only had to take two steps backward Next, he clenched his teeth heavily and strode forward His arms wrapped around the horse’s neck and then he twisted with all his h could be heard before the warhorse ca on the horse cried out miserably as the horse fell on hiht’s head and grabbing onto the ha His hand drew an arc and the haht’s head and helmet were smashed into a bloody pulp
What Chen Xiaolian did not knoas that the fellow he had just killed off was actually the highest couard army from London He was one of the aristocrats under Harold as fa the knight down, Chen Xiaolian was greeted with a hail of arrows!
He quickly threw his body aside and fell onto the ground
The arrows fell upon the grounds beside him Another two arrows fell upon his back – however, they were stopped by his protective suit
Chen Xiaolian turned around and observed the situation He saw Bei Tai roaring furiously – there was an arrow on his thigh!
Da forward As he did so, he slaht they could pick up an easy kill He then grabbed Bei Tai up and asked, “How are you?”
“Not dead yet” Bei Tai shook his head and said, “But there’s too many of thes
The h they had successfully cut down the enereat
He only had 100 hly 30 of them had died
Chen Xiaolian deduced that the losses incurred by the enereater It was likely that they have lost over 100out, Chen Xiaolian feared that only defeat awaited him and his lehandedly defeating the 1,000 soldiers on the eneth was indeed far beyond ordinary ainst an elephant However… with the exception of suainst 1,000would be a better option
The an to crumble and some started to throw their weapons away and run – that was a very dangerous sign
The coeously swar, running away quickly was soroup of felloho only wanted to ht to the end was absurd
