Chapter 172 The Road to Escape [4K]

Ryan didn't know at this moment. Just when he was possessed by the Oscar Awards, the entire Telter County had undergone earth-shaking changes. With the blockade plan proposed by Count William as the main body, almost all cities as key hubs have occurred.

turmoil.

The source of this unrest was Earl William, who held heavy troops. No one expected that this legendary nobleman would make such a choice.

You know, his family has royal blood. Although it is very thin and long-lasting, it cannot change this fact.

The vassals under Count William began to seize the city at night. Many nobles guarding the city ruined their troops before they could react, some became prisoners, and some gave their lives.

In the city of Valde, Viscount Gabriel also brazenly launched a rebellion, and his army attacked the other nobles' garrisons with lightning speed.

Since the Linton County Legion, one of the main forces, was not in the city, the army under Viscount Gabriel's attack was extremely smooth. With the secret cultivation of power, the city of Valde was in just a few hours.

.

The battle killed people and their heads rolled, and blood flowed into a river. The blood that soared into the sky seemed to make the bright white moon covered with a layer of blood. The whole of Tert County could not sleep tonight...

"Master Viscount, you have already dealt with it." A figure came to Gabriel quietly, his tone was calm, but his body was filled with a faint smell of blood.

Gabriel carried his hands on his back, and listened to the screams outside gradually disappearing, and said coldly: "Then let's start."

The figure hesitated for a moment and finally spoke: "Are we really going to do this? This is our base camp after all, and doing this is a foundation."

Gabriel paused when he heard this, and turned around, staring at him coldly and said, "This is the order of Lord Earl. With our strength, we cannot overthrow the thief on the throne. We must use it.

Their power, don’t forget our mission!”

The figure suddenly felt a stern in his heart and immediately took the order to retreat. The next moment, a scream appeared again. This time, it was in various places in the city. That night, Gabriel's army rushed from the south of the city to the north of the city...

When Ryan and others were rushing back to Valde City leisurely, it was almost noon. Looking at the city getting closer and closer, Ryan suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Although everything seemed normal on the city wall and the soldiers and flags did not change much, he always felt that in front of him was no longer a city, but rather a bloody mouth of a giant beast that had been dormant for a long time.

He had always trusted his intuition very much. Although this time there was no warning, he still chose to believe it. The footsteps of the war horse under his crotch could not help but pause half a mile outside the city.

"What's wrong?" Allen and others looked at him with some surprise.

"I feel something is wrong. Have you smelled the blood?" Ryan frowned, feeling a little uneasy.

"The smell of blood?" Allen and others looked at each other, their tone full of surprise.

"It seems to be there." Xiyue, as an elf, felt more sensitive, and she could feel the thin smell of blood in the air.

Just as Ryan was hesitating, the heavy city gate slowly opened, Viscount Gabriel came up with a smile on his face, and he said with apologies: "I'm really sorry Baron Black, I know the attack on Baron Breth.

Thank you so much, I will report everything you did to Earl Donald."

After seeing Gabriel, the doubts on Ryan's face eased a little, but when he thought of all the weird things before, he still had a heart in his heart and said with regret: "This is what I should do, but it's a pity Baron Breth

Unfortunately, he died in battle."

Gabriel seemed very surprised. He was silent for a while before speaking: "Let's go to the city first. A rebellion broke out in the city last night. The city gate should not be opened for too long. Let's go in and say."

‘Rebellion?’ Ryan’s heart moved. If this is the case, it would explain why there was a smell of blood. He relaxed a little and said curiously: “Who is so bold, what are the losses?”

"A small group of unknown enemies attacked and suffered some losses. When you come back, I can finally calm down." Gabriel seemed to be a little scared and said with lingering fear.

Ryan nodded, Gabriel's answer could not tell anything, and he thought to himself: 'Maybe I'm thinking too much.'

Thinking of it, he commanded the army to prepare to enter the city. Gabriel was particularly talkative today and kept telling him about the dangers of last night, and he was asked to write a war report in his words.

Ryan knew in his heart that he wanted to exaggerate the facts and let him be the proof. Anyway, this had no effect on him, so he was naturally willing to do personal favors.

The two of them were moving forward talking and laughing. Just less than a hundred meters away from the city gate, the soul-devouring ring on his hand suddenly shone with a faint light. Ryan could clearly feel that the soul power was absorbed by the ring.

.

At first he didn't care. After all, Gabriel said that a battle broke out in the city, and someone died will naturally produce soul power, which is normal.

But soon he realized something was wrong. These soul powers... were too many, so many that he was a little chilling.

The Soul-Devouring Ring absorbs soul power not once or twice, especially in the previous few battles, which time did not absorb four-digit soul power?

This time it was completely different. If the soul power absorbed several times before was a small stream, but this time it was like a big river. The soul-devouring ring was absorbed with all its strength and was still surging continuously after absorbing it for so long.

.

If thousands of people die just a stream, then how many people will die just be like a big river?

Ryan suddenly felt chilling, and all the hairs on his body stood up. He looked at Viscount Gabriel with a smile beside him, stopped and suddenly said, "How many people are alive in the city?"

Gabriel's face showed a puzzled expression at the right time: "What are you talking about?"

His acting skills are very good, and he looks seamless and has no flaws at all. But Ryan will no longer be deceived by him. He quietly made a gesture to Xiyue and others, which means warning.

Ryan was about to delay the words, but he didn't expect that Viscount Gabriel, who was still smiling at the last moment, suddenly attacked. With a wave of his hand, three long silver needles suddenly evoked from his narrowed cuffs.

When it exploded, the strength of the Great Knight level was fully revealed.

Fortunately, Ryan had been vigilant for a long time, and a diamond-shaped light shield appeared in front of him in an instant. The light shield flashed in the moment when the silver needle hit him, and he insisted tenaciously.

Only then was Ryan surprised to find that the other party was actually using a hidden weapon. This was the first time he had seen it in so many years. The nobles in this world still had such a little conscience. They rarely attacked during battles, let alone such dirty methods of hidden weapons.

.

Seeing that he missed a blow, Gabriel was not indulged in fighting, and he retreated into the city. Although he was a powerful knight, he still had little hope once he was trapped in the sea of ​​people.

"Leave!"

A sweet shout came out, and the long bow in Xiyue's hand trembled repeatedly, and arrows blocked all Gabriel's retreat.

But the other party had already prepared. A phantom of a magnificent knight appeared behind him, swept all the arrows with one sword, and then fled back to the city neatly.

"【Legend Arrival】" Ryan whispered softly. This is the iconic combat skill of the Great Knight, and he can only barely use it at the moment.

He stopped everyone who was going to continue pursuing and said calmly: "Don't chase the poor enemy, cover the retreat."

Most people have not understood the current situation yet. At this moment, the benefits of Allen's strict military discipline are reflected. With his order, the confused soldier still perfectly executed his order. The back team turned into the front team, and quickly

Keep the retreat without any confusion.

Although the army under David Bella and his two men performed worse, they still reacted, but they were a little confused.

Sure enough, the next moment, the dense soldiers came out of the city, and the soldiers on the city wall also began to attack them.

Fortunately, they had retreated for a while, and most of the attacks on the city walls did not work.

Seeing that the city reacted so quickly, Ryan suddenly burst into cold sweats on his back. If he entered the city, he would probably have been dismembered by Wan Blades at this moment.

"Don't fight, retreat immediately!" Ryan took out his bow and arrow to fight back, and ordered the troops to speed up the evacuation.

But Gabriel was determined to solve them, so he could only make one preparation. Seeing that the plan to get you into trouble failed, he immediately launched a backup plan - to surround him from all sides.

Before Ryan and others could run out of a mile, teams of rebels rushed out from all directions, including the wave of bandits attacking the Red Leaf Town.

Baron John's face turned pale when he saw the wolf in front and tiger in the back, and he had to follow Ryan in a hurry, feeling a little at a loss.

Seeing that he was about to be surrounded, Ryan promptly exercised his right as deputy commander and shouted: "The Fourth Battalion is in front, the Fifth Battalion and the Sixth Battalion will then support it, protect the baggage, and fight out from the southwest!"

He was calling out the organization of the legion, which was the order of everyone. At this time, David Bella and John naturally could not jump out to compete for command, and they both consciously led the troops to cooperate.

The fourth battalion, which is the soldiers of Ryan's headquarters, gathered forward at this moment. Alan took the lead and shouted: "The cavalry team is ready to charge!"

The war horses neighed, and nearly 300 cavalry became the spearhead for the entire army to break through. Under the leadership of Caven, Levith and others, they rushed towards the weak southwest.

But the rebels reacted quickly and immediately increased their troops to replenish the encirclement. Archers and spearheads were also prepared.

They are not those rebels who became monks halfway through the journey. They are serious private nobles, and their combat power and fighting style cannot be generalized.

"Shoot the arrow!"

Arrows shot out one after another, drooping in the air and falling down. Below them, the cavalry were charging silently with a small round shield in one hand and a spear in the other.

The dense arrows took away the lives of many soldiers, and the courage and fighting skills played a role at this moment, allowing them to continue charging forward.

The cavalry was so fast that they almost instantly came to the army formation where the rebels were waiting for the battle. Ann suddenly had a hammer-like object in his hand. After fiddling, he struggled to throw it out.

The crystal bomb suddenly bloomed in the center of the rebels. The tragic scene caused their morale to be in chaos. The cavalry team rushed in and soon broke out a bloody path...

It was two days later when Ryan and others completely got rid of the hunt. The team that originally exceeded 4,000 people had lost more than a quarter of the staff, and less than three thousand people were left.

Lane, who was tired, ordered the army to set up a meal by the river for a while. Even he felt tired after escaping and fighting for a long time, let alone the soldiers under his command.

As soon as he took some water to wash his face, Alan, covered in blood, walked over and said in a deep voice: "In order to break out, we have killed more than 1,300 people, mainly Baron John's army, their speed is too slow,

The military discipline is too poor, and the losses are more than half.

Our army had crystal bombs that opened the way, so the casualties were less, but five crystal bombs were used up."

Ryan looked at the slightly red face wash water passing through his fingertips, and felt a little heavy. Although he was killed without any danger, the loss this time was too great.

It would be fine if the personnel were on the way, but the greater losses were the food and supplies. They went out to fight before, so they only brought the food and supplies for a few days, but now they are almost out of food.

Not to mention that the treasure was almost completely lost, Ryan lost 300 war horses, which made him so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe.

This time, a total of ten crystal bombs were brought out, and now six have been used, and two thousand-machine crossbows are left. Now there is only one left, which can be said to be a heavy loss.

"Stop talking about this, let the soldiers have a good rest and leave tomorrow."
