Chapter 534 Chapter 536 Death of Xihe
With a "bang", the flag of the Tianhe Mercenary Group was hit by an arrow. The flag fluttering in the wind had a hole in the middle and was torn into three pieces.
"Everyone, hold on for a while. At least half of the people inside have lost their combat capability. We just need to hold on for a few more minutes and we'll be able to break in!" The battle commander of the Sharp Sword Mercenary Group shouted.
They have destroyed all the mechanisms in the defense zone and have broken down the gate. As long as they defeat the defense team at the gate, they can march straight in.
"Don't let your guard down. We must break through the enemy's defense as soon as possible. Otherwise, monsters may follow the smell of blood. If we haven't taken over the stronghold by then, we will face direct attacks from the monsters." Xihe shouted with a loudspeaker.
"Captain Xihe, the firepower output of the Tianhe Mercenary Group has become stronger again. What should we do? We don't have much time."
"Get the catapults ready, attack with flints." Xihe pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and gave the order.
"yes."
In the team of the Sword Mercenary Group, more than a dozen catapults were slowly pushed out. There was a huge round black stone on each car. The team members pressed the switch of the catapult, and saw that these black stones ignited raging flames due to the friction of the conveyor belt on the catapult.
Once this kind of stone catches fire, the flame is difficult to extinguish, and it can create chaos and cause panic.
Rong Xianxian had already seen the situation below. She did not hide her tracks. Seeing the flint whizzing towards the stronghold, Rong Xianxian accelerated suddenly on the flying carpet. "Puff, puff, puff." The flint that was about to fall into the stronghold seemed to hit an obstacle and bounced back with a "whoosh".
The members of the Sword Mercenary Group screamed and fled in all directions.
"Bang, bang, bang!" After a few rapid gunshots, the chaotic crowd slowly calmed down.
Xihe looked at Rong Xianxian who was standing on a flying carpet in the endless night sky. His heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "Oh no! Why is she here at this time?"
"Doctor Rong, the order in the safe zone is chaotic tonight. Aren't you worried about the safety of your two children?" Xihe shouted to Rong Xianxian while giving the order for the entire team to prepare to retreat.
"I saw you on the battlefield today, and let you escape during the day. Now that we meet again, you'd better give me your life!" Rong Xianxian still remembered Xihe, who had broken her invisibility, and she recognized him immediately.
In the battle during the day, although he was not the main force, he was also an accomplice. Rong Xianxian drew out the Soul-Devouring Sword and went straight for Xihe's head.
The Sharp Sword Mercenary Group has a base not far from here. The geographical advantage of that base is far worse than this one. Guo Yao has long coveted this base located at the throat of the Misty Forest that Ning Qingyun seized. It happened that today, Ning Qingyun's forces were surrounded and suppressed by Gong Hanyu, who was defeated miserably, and the Tianhe Mercenary Group also suffered heavy casualties. It was a good opportunity to seize the territory.
When Xihe saw Rong Xianxian rushing towards him, he was so frightened that his hands and feet turned cold. This person had a treasure that could rebound attacks and a fatal knife. How could he break the deadlock and save his life?
"Bang!" There was a dull sound, and a cannonball flew in from a distance, blowing up a section of the wall connected to the gate. Xihe was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. Their reinforcements had finally arrived, and they had arrived just in time.
"Madam, please come to the stronghold quickly. The enemy has dispatched many heavy artillery and will arrive soon!" Pan Yang observed the situation behind the enemy through a telescope and anxiously spoke to Rong Xianxian through the jade talisman.
No matter how strong Rong Xianxian is, she is still alone. If the enemy opens fire, how can she resist alone? If she gets hurt again, how can he explain to his boss?
Rong Xianxian had been on guard against Xihe's counterattack and ignored the movements in the rear, which gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage. This time she reacted and immediately activated the Ice Soul Pearl in her body, condensing the extreme coldness at her fingertips, aiming at the muzzle and firing.
"Crack!" The artilleryman responsible for firing the shells saw a white light penetrate into the muzzle, followed by a crackling sound, and the entire barrel was frozen.
"Captain, it's frozen!" The young artilleryman reported to the captain with tears in his eyes.
"What?"
"Captain, it's frozen here too!"
"Captain, I'm frozen here too!"
Reports kept coming in one after another, and Captain Chen who came to support was dumbfounded.
However, after Rong Xianxian emitted extreme coldness, she continued to kill towards Xihe. To catch a thief, one must first catch the leader. As long as Xihe is solved, the rest of the battle will be easier.
Seeing this, Xihe immediately ordered his men to launch an attack on the stronghold in front, hoping to divert Rong Xianxian's attention. At the same time, under the cover of his men, he got on a bulletproof armored vehicle and fled backwards.
This time, Rong Xianxian did not care about the situation inside the stronghold and chased in the direction of Xihe's escape.
"Doctor Rong, why don't you hurry back to the safe zone? Do you know that Ning Qingyun killed hundreds of people at a time, and the scene predicted by the black plate has long aroused the official's fear. They have decided to arrest Ning Qingyun. You still threw him in the safe zone. Aren't you afraid that you will never see him again?" Xihe sat in the car and shouted to the outside through the loudspeaker, hoping to disrupt Rong Xianxian's thoughts.
The content of Xihe's words did catch Rong Xianxian's attention. If she hadn't been sure that Ning Qingyun was in her foggy space, she would probably have been really upset after hearing these words.
However, Xihe did not expect that there would be a space on Rong Xianxian's body that could accommodate a person. Rong Xianxian caught up with the armored vehicle, cut through the roof of the armored vehicle with a knife, hit Xihe's neck, and killed Xihe inside the car.
The driver made a sharp turn in a panic and hit a rock under the wheel, causing the vehicle to overturn.
Xihe was dead, and at a command from Captain Chen who came to support them, they planned to return the same way before reaching the battlefield. They ran into several monsters that were wandering around and following the smell of blood.
Another bloody fight ensued. The support personnel, whose gun barrels were frozen and whose heavy artillery could not be used, had no advantage against the monsters and were slaughtered miserably.
The surprise attack launched by the Sword Mercenaries tonight ended in a disastrous defeat, with only a few survivors.
Rong Xianxian killed the monsters that surrounded them and watched Pan Yang lead the remaining people to repair the damaged walls and gates.
"Madam, it's a good thing you came here, otherwise this would be our burial place tonight." Pan Yang said with gratitude and guilt.
He was grateful to Rong Xianxian for saving his life on behalf of his brothers, but he also felt very guilty for almost losing his stronghold.
"Who would have thought that the Sharp Sword Mercenary Group would launch an attack tonight? Hurry up and carry the wounded to the hall and prepare for treatment!" Rong Xianxian ordered.
