Outside the city of Pulan, the horns of the barbarians' attack and the roars of beasts resounded through the sky.

On the top of the city, the knights in full armor were waiting in battle. General Tokin drew out his long knife, raised his right arm high, and swung it down vigorously. The bowstring was fully drawn, and arrow clusters like rain flew towards the barbarians rushing down the dunes.

The arrow feathers streaked across the sky, leaving streaks of dazzling light, blood splashed, and the grass outside the city was stained red by the blood of the barbarians.

The barbarians' attack did not stop, like desert wolves that smelled blood, whether it was the corpse of their prey or the death of their own kind, it would only make them crazier.

The priests of the barbarians cut their wrists, and the rattan sticks in their hands were stained red with blood. More than a dozen slaves were pressed to the ground with blood flowing down their necks. The priests chanted the sacrificial rites handed down from ancient times. The strange totem symbolizing the tribe took shape on the slope of the sand dune, twisting as if alive, screaming silently.

"God!"

The priests gathered around the totem, holding up their rattan sticks and stomping their feet hard. There seemed to be another face in the splash of yellow sand, ferocious and distorted, like a devil from hell.

"Cangyan!"

Cangyan's priest stopped moving, his chest heaved violently, and he prostrated himself on the ground in the most pious posture. The other priests also knelt down one after another. They were praying for victory, using their own blood and the blood of slaves to pray to the gods victory.

The slaves fell one after another, not dead, but dead.

Under the sand dunes, the barbarian warriors raised their spears, and the muscles in their arms bulged, as hard as rocks.

The black spears flew up to the top of the city and pierced the chests and necks of the knights. The God of Death opened his bloody mouth and laughed wildly, looking forward to more brave souls.

Casualties on both sides are increasing, but the defenders have the upper hand.

General Tuojin vetoed the suggestion of his subordinates to go out to fight to the death. The city lord was not there, and the guards in the city were not strong enough to fight against the barbarians several times his own.

"Don't leave the city, this is an order!"

The knights of Pulan City are well-known in the eastern continent for their bravery and combat skills, and they often make the enemy frightened.Now they can only trap the beasts on the top of the city, let the barbarians yell under the city, and cannot go out of the city to fight back. Resentment and depression have turned into stronger forces, and arrow clusters are flying down from the top of the city, constantly harvesting the lives of the barbarians.

"Ow!"

The roar of the barbarian patriarch sounded during the attack, and three mammoths rushed out from behind the barbarian warriors.

With the sound of rumbling footsteps, the ground trembled.The barbarian warrior struck the ground with his spear and kept shouting, "Mammoth!"

Amid the loud elephant calls, all Pulan people tensed up.

"Attention!" General Tokin's voice became hoarse, "The barbarians are going to attack the city!"

The scene that once took place outside the city of Horchim is repeated in the city of Plan.

The rain of arrows at the top of the city couldn't stop the mammoth's footsteps. Kony stood on the mammoth's back with a spear in his hand, and roared like a beast. The mammoth accelerated, like a giant mountain, and slammed into the city wall .

boom!

boom!

boom!

There were three loud bangs, but the expected gravel and dust did not appear, and the tall city wall stood still.

Kony raised his head and looked fiercely at the defenders on the top of the city, "Come again!"

The mammoth retreated. This time, the land beasts driven by the barbarian warriors also surrounded them. The priests in the distance made strange noises. All the knights on the top of the wall broke into a cold sweat. Even General Tokin looked pale. dignified.

No, just when the mammoth and the ground beast hit the city wall again and tried to break through the city gate, dots of light suddenly lit up from the city wall, forming a golden pattern. If you look carefully, they are connected one by one. Huge wuwen, wuwen engraved on the ancient city wall with the blood of emperors and great witches!

In the golden light, a long and ethereal voice rang out in everyone's minds. The confinement and shackles imprinted in the deepest part of the barbarian's soul seemed to break through the cage after hundreds of years of silence.

Surrender, kneel before the great witch, to wash away the sins in the bloodline inheritance.

Kony clasped his forehead hard, the totem tingled like a fire, and the muscles on his cheeks were trembling.The other barbarian chiefs also howled in pain, and some barbarian warriors even knelt on the ground on one knee.

The ones who were most affected were the priests who were farthest away. They were already lying on the ground trembling, chanting, "Great witch, great witch!"

The defenders on the top of the city looked at all this in surprise, at the barbarians who seemed to be bound by some kind of force suddenly, at the behemoths that were frenzied and almost uncontrollable, what is going on?

Is it because of the golden light on the city wall?

The city of Pulan has a long history and has existed since the empire era. The direct blood of the emperor has too many secrets, secrets that make people admire and shock.

"The blood of the emperor, the oracle..."

General Tokin's expression was still solemn, and he raised his hand to stop the knight who aimed his longbow at Kony.

"General?"

The knight was puzzled, and General Tokin just shook his head. No one could explain the current situation. The golden light trapped the barbarians in the city. He didn't know how long it would last. He didn't want any changes in the middle.

Mu Sha also walked to the top of the city, holding a long knife. Barbarians are natural fighters, and men in the desert never lack the courage to fight against the enemy.

"General, what's going on?"

"I don't know." Tuojin looked down the city, the golden light on the city wall did not show signs of weakening, but became stronger and stronger, and the lake in the oasis outside the city seemed to be glowing, "Have you sent a message to the city lord?"

"En." Mu Sha took two steps forward, putting one hand on the city wall, "However, the city lord should have arrived at Ariel City by now."

The implication is that it is impossible for Mu Di's army to turn back immediately, and to fight against these barbarians can only rely on the existing forces in the city.Musha clenched his fists. Even if the barbarians invaded Pulan City when it was empty, the God of Victory might not be on their side!

In the golden light, the ground beasts began to go berserk, attacking the barbarian warriors who controlled them like crazy.The mammoth kept shaking its nose and flapping its ears, ignoring Kony's orders and backing away on its own. It wasn't until it exited the edge of the golden light that the mood eased a little.

No more arrows flew down from the top of the city, but the screams below the city did not stop.

One ground beast bit the barbarian warrior's legs, and the other rushed forward, biting the barbarian's shoulder, tearing the barbarian to pieces.

Flesh and blood splattered, and there were scavengers hovering in the air, but the killing showed no sign of stopping.

I am used to seeing life and death, and fighting in the western wilderness, but the scene in front of me is still extremely terrifying.

"Patriarch!" Cangyan's priest shouted loudly on the sand dune, "Retreat! Get out of there!"

Before the words fell, a mouthful of blood spewed out from his mouth.The other priests lowered their bodies even lower, allowing Cangyan's priest to fall down without anyone to help him.

Unreconciled, angry... All kinds of emotions gathered together, as if a beast was roaring in Kony's chest.

"Patriarch!"

Cangyan's priest struggled to get up from the ground, and the other barbarians also lost their will to fight. Kony clenched his spear tightly and had to issue an order to temporarily withdraw from the battlefield.

Musha and Tuojin on the top of the city are still nervous, because they know that the barbarians will not let it go, and the war has only just begun.

Not only the city of Pulan was attacked by the barbarians, but also the city of Bitia.

With the experience of being attacked by barbarians, the performance of the Bitiya people is remarkable. Even if Siculus is not in the city, there is no Wuwen on the city wall like Pulan City, and the barbarians outside the city of Bitiya have not been able to ask for it. Cheap.

Hundreds of corpses were left outside the city, and at sunset, the barbarian warriors had to retreat.

Kony is not here, and the barbarian leader who was ordered to attack the city of Bitiya is heartbroken for the lost soldiers. If he can't break through the city of Bitiya tomorrow, he will have to reconsider whether to leave or stay.

There are precedents of the extermination of the White Wolf and Red She. Once they break the covenant with Kony, even if they save their strength and return to the western wilderness, what awaits them will not be a good end.

The patriarchs are hesitating and caught in a dilemma.

Outside the city of Ariel, the black army was like a sharp blade splitting the desert, and the sword pointed directly at the city of Ariel.

Moody jumped off the black lizard, holding a goshawk with brown and black feathers on his arm, and the goshawk brought the news that the barbarians were aggressively invading the border.

"Finally can't stand it anymore?"

Moody handed the goshawk to the knight captain, and sent someone to invite Siculus and several other city lords. They sat around the bonfire and passed around the parchment that had been untied from the goshawk's legs.

He Ning sat not far away, leaning on the back of the green lizard, tearing open the raw meat with his fingernails, and feeding them one by one to the goshawk that fluttered towards him, standing beside the captain of the knight with a helpless expression.

No way, even if he held more delicious raw meat in his hand, the goshawk would still fly to He Ning, stretch its neck and open its mouth, begging for food like a baby bird.

Regarding this, the green lizard pretended not to see it generously, and the Longying sisters were not so friendly anymore, so they wanted to peck this guy, but the goshawk pecked more and more courageously, so brave that He Ning thought in his heart, goshawk and goshawk Green parrot, which one is the real foolish and bold?

"The barbarians have made a move?"

He Ning fed the goshawk and wiped his hands. In fact, he wanted to lick it very much. The smell of flesh and blood often made him lost, especially when he was getting closer to Ariel City. His manic emotions seemed to be out of control. He didn't want to go crazy. It can only be supported by willpower.

It seems that there is no way to end this matter without killing that witch herself.

"Yes."

The knight answered He Ning's question respectfully, and seeing that He Ning didn't intend to continue asking, he picked up the goshawk and turned to leave.The goshawk is stupid and bold, but he is not. Have you seen the feathers on the necks of the two dragon eagles stand up?Being pecked by the dragon eagle, his knight life should be over.

"finally……"

He Ning sighed, he had expected that the barbarians would take advantage of the situation to loot, and he didn't want to choose this time.Thinking of the old priests of Koni and Cangyan, there was some complexity in his eyes.

It's like a reincarnation, everything that was buried under the yellow sand 400 years ago is being torn apart, pushed, and repeated by an invisible hand.

With a wry smile, should I say cruelty or karma?

He Ning didn't know, so he bumped the green lizard with his head, and the green lizard turned around puzzled, with a whole lamb leg in its mouth.

"Brother, why are you so good at eating?"

"..."

"Forget it, just eat it, I can afford it anyway."

He Ning waved his hand, acting quite generously, the green lizard felt wronged, the guy who always beat it clearly ate more!

In the evening, the city lords of Amanla and Mariga arrived one after another. Judging by their appearance, they had a very bad time.Although the city gate was closed and there were no new "patients" in the city, the doctors tried many kinds of herbal medicines but nothing worked, and the people who were poisoned before could only wait to die.

"Do not drink the water from the nearby oasis."

The Lord of Amara's face was gloomy, looking in the direction of Ariel City, his eyes were full of resentment.The same is true of the city lord of Mariga. The witch's methods are not very clever. Combined with the various situations before and after the city gate is closed, it is not difficult to guess what is going on with the sudden outbreak of the "epidemic".

Sitting next to Modi, He Ning couldn't help frowning when he heard the situation of Amanla City and Mariga City, pulled Modi's sleeve, and whispered a few words in his ear, Modi shook his head, He Ning Ning persisted.

"Try it, you can't leave it alone."

"I don't agree." Moody's blue eyes locked onto He Ning, and he clasped He Ning's shoulder with one hand, his voice was low and depressed, "400 years ago...it was the same!"

"It's not the same." He Ning shook his head, "I won't force myself, just give it a try, and I am not the only one who can detoxify."

While speaking, He Ning raised the corners of his mouth, and there was a trace of inexplicable meaning in his smile.

mercy?It does not seem.

vicious?Can't tell.

In short, the blood debt must be paid in blood. The great witch died in a conspiracy 400 years ago, and the entire city of witches was buried with him.

The actions of He Ning and Moody attracted the attention of others, but Moody was still defeated in the face of those black eyes.

"I thought, I can help."

He Ning didn't mention saving people, only said to help, and got up and left under the suspicious eyes of several city lords. After a while, he took back two small bottles that were as long as his thumbs.

"Try it, pour it into water and feed it to sick people, it should have an effect."

Most of the bottle is water, only two drops of He Ning's blood, showing a faint pink color, Miya also threw in two pinches of vanilla powder, ordinary people can't smell a little blood.

The city lords of Amanla and Mariga thanked each other and returned to the city immediately. Besides treating the poisoned people, they will gather the troops as quickly as possible. They have had enough of swallowing their anger for a long time!

Ariel City, the Temple of Otiramus, it's time to pay the price!

At night, He Ning sat in the tent, looked at Modi with a smile, gestured with two fingers, "There are only two drops, really!"

Moody said nothing.

"I know you're worried about me, but you have to do what you have to do, you can't do nothing, right?"

Moody still didn't speak.

He Ning was at a loss, wanted to scratch his head, stretched his hand halfway and put it down, "To be honest, the little blood I gave them can't save lives at all, it can only delay the speed of the poison."

In other words, if you want to save everyone's life, you have to take down the city of Ariel and catch the poisoner.

Of course, if you can't think about it, you can also point the sword at He Ning, but with Mu Di around, you want to die so much to do this.

Those who know current affairs are heroes, and the persimmons are always soft.

Moreover, He curled his lips, every time he was bitten by Moody, the blood he "lost" was hundreds or even thousands of times more than this.

However, he didn't dare to say that.

He Ning's mouth was dry with good words, and Mo Di finally stopped his sullen face, sighed, and stretched out his arms to embrace He Ning, "Don't be an example, otherwise..."

How much he saves, how much he kills!Greed is never-ending, and he will never let go of anyone or anything that would cause danger to He Ning.

Cold blooded?

As early as 400 years ago, he was the most tyrannical emperor in Syria.

In the city of Ariel, the city lord has not shown up for several days, and the ministers and generals could not find him.

"The enemy surrounded us, what the hell is the city lord doing?!"

Voices of dissatisfaction sounded in the city, and the irritable general rushed into the city lord's mansion and never came out again.

The merchants who were forced to stay in the city became panicked. Wamu hid in the crowd without showing any abnormalities, but his anxiety continued to grow. He always felt that something big would happen tonight.

Temple personnel wearing flaxen robes appeared in the city, each holding a water bag in their arms, "This is the divine water given to believers by the great witch."

Many people didn't want to drink, but they were held firmly by the shoulders and forced to drink it down.Several businessmen covered their necks and coughed vigorously. After a long time, nothing happened, but their complexions were ruddy and they became much more energetic.

The staff of the temple was always smiling, and the smile was very gentle, "Look, why don't you accept the blessing of the great witch?"

The merchants began to hesitate, but Wam felt even worse. Looking at the woman who spoke, he always felt that something was wrong, very wrong.

In the end, his eyes fell on the woman's hands half covered by her long sleeves, and his pupils suddenly constricted.

The woman is very young and beautiful, but her hands are like an old woman.
