Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 560 Battle of Valen Mountain (1)

Ales carried a spear and trot all the way through the dense woods. A strong wind blew through, and the sky was scattered with sparse leaves. Ales looked up at Mount Varun not far away and cursed in a low voice. A few words, and then turned his head to greet the 150 soldiers who followed him: "Run me faster, Cindy Cantelli said, as long as we can climb that mountain, everyone has a gold coin. reward."

"Punch, punch..." A soldier behind Ales gasped and said intermittently: "Captain... I really... I can't run... I can't run... Why don't we rest... …Take a break."

"Yeah, yeah." The soldiers around yelled together. They have been running in the lush woods for more than ten minutes. The sky is covered with dark clouds tonight and the visibility is poor. They can't light torches and run. It is really strenuous.

"Shut up all the fucking!" Ales cursed loudly, "Want the people on the mountain to hear?"

A soldier whispered: "Your voice is better than that of our group. Still keep it quiet?"

Ales did not hear these words. He felt that he was a little tired, so he stopped running and cursed and said: "It's a hell, why is it our turn to go? Okay, everyone, take a break and save the rush. Even the guy couldn't pick it up when he went up."

The soldiers cheered in a low voice and groped for a place to lie down. The entire forest was suddenly messed up. Ales cursed a few words and gave up when he saw that the scene was under control.In fact, this is not to blame Ales and his squadron. The main reason is that most of the soldiers under the command of Cindy Cantelli are farmers who have just been recruited for a few months, and Senat has insufficient manpower and resources to prevent them. Strict training, simply let people teach them the most basic things, and then distribute a batch of old weapons to them. As for the armor of defense, only half of the leather armor is worn by the level of the squadron leader Ales.

Ales stretched his body as far as possible and lay in a big letter on the ground. The trees in the woods were unable to cover the sky completely because of the fallen leaves in autumn, but even if the sparse gaps were exposed, the woods were still dark. It's hard to see clearly when you put your hands in front of you.

"Hey, Lord Commander said, if one of our squadrons rushes up first, he will be rewarded with 200 gold coins. Fighting will definitely kill people. By then, there will be dozens of deaths left in my squadron of 150 people, and I am alone. Send them one, can I get... 40 or 50? Damn, what is that, the sun?"

Ales was looking forward to stuffing a bunch of clinking gold coins into his pocket. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, a group of red light appeared in front of him, and the surrounding temperature immediately began to rise, in Ales’ mind. The last thought appeared uncontrollably: "I haven't been lying down for a long time, how come the sun is out?"

"Boom!" A large group of red light burst out in the woods at the foot of Talun Mountain, and the huge roar suddenly broke the silent night. Under the scorching heat, Ales and his resting soldier A few seconds later, it turned to ashes, and the trees where they were ignited with raging flames.

Under the intense firelight, billowing smoke rose into the sky, and the stumps and branches of countless corpses were intertwined, splashing in all directions.When the thick smoke dissipated, a large pit more than 2 meters deep had appeared in the place where Ales and others were. Around the pit, a large number of trees fell towards the outside, and the flames on the ground and on the trunks were still Excitingly extinguished, and the squadron that was resting here just now has been wiped out.

"Enemy attack!" At a distance of about 500 meters from here, another squadron sent by Cindy Cantelli made a miserable cry, but under the huge roar in the distance, the cry could not be transmitted. , Was completely suppressed, and the soldiers who had no training at all became a mess. Many of them dropped their weapons almost immediately and turned and ran in the direction they came.

"Ah!" A soldier who was fleeing suddenly let out a scream. I don't know when a stone pillar protruded from the ground, and the tip of the stone pillar just pierced in the lower abdomen of the recruit of Senat. The soldier was taking measures. Unprepared, his body was pierced by sharp stone pillars.

There was severe pain. The soldier wanted to struggle to climb down from the stone pillar, but his body no longer had any strength. The only thing he could do was to scream, as if this was the only way to relieve his pain. With this The soldiers screamed weaker and weaker, and blood continuously flowed out of his wound like a stream, and soon stained a large area of ​​red.

The screaming of the dying soldier seemed to release a certain signal. On the way for this group of soldiers to escape, the soil that was originally very soft because it was covered with fallen leaves began to arch upwards, each arching in a few seconds. Then there will be a sharp stone pillar tearing the ground and rising quickly from the ground.

After the stone pillar rises a few meters above the ground, it stops moving. After the stone pillar lasts for a few minutes, it will turn into mud and spill on the ground. The corpse pierced on it will also fall to the ground, but the nearby ground quickly A new stone pillar will rise again and continue to attack the enemy.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!) The soldiers of the regiment had completely lost their fighting spirit. They ran in vain like a headless fly, but they couldn't avoid the sudden stone pillar on the ground.

However, within a radius of several hundred meters, these stone pillars rose freely, turned into mud, and rose again. The screams of Senat’s defeated recruits became less and less, and they became weaker and weaker. Soon, the woods Zhong returned to its original calm, only the sound of blood flowing continuously, and the stumps and broken arms on the ground silently recounted the tragic scene that just happened in the woods.

Cindy Cantelli, who was drinking ale in the rear, looking forward to killing the enemy in one swoop, collapsed to the ground. The 300 men of his two squadrons were wiped out in just a few minutes, and it seemed that there was nothing at all. Meet the enemy in short combat.

"This, this... what is this?" Cindy Cantelli stammered, and he reached out to drink the glass of ale in his hand, while his hand was trembling, no matter how hard he tried. He couldn't pass the wine glass to his lips. One of the soldiers next to him was quite bold. Although he was scared to death by the annihilation of the entire army just now, he saw that his commander wanted to drink, so he walked over to help him get the wine glass together. When he reached the lips, Cindy Cantelli drank the small half glass of ale.

After drinking the ale, Cindy Cantelli's courage seemed to have recovered a bit. He panted and suddenly shouted: "Withdraw our troops, let's leave this damn place, what military merits, fuck, I don't want to Die, wait until the reinforcements come tomorrow!"
