Chapter 844: Surrounded
When Gervis cleared the enemies blocking his way, the two city lords who were responsible for sniping the magician had also arrived at their destination.
"Asshole! Go to hell!"
Looking at a group of magicians who continuously released fireballs, the two city lords, who had long been gnashing their teeth in hatred, swung their swords without hesitation and slashed at the group of magicians.
"No, run!"
Because they were in the middle of a melee, Long Yi and the others had no idea that the two Holy City Lords had sneaked in.
When they really launched the attack, Long Yi's face changed drastically and he looked horrified at the terrifying momentum that erupted.
However, it was too late to run away at this moment.
The huge sword beams slashed out by the two city lords with the strength of purple flags have already fallen on their heads.
"Haha! Go to hell!"
The two city lords immediately showed joy, and their previous anger was relieved at this moment.
"Do you two think you can kill my people in front of me?"
At this moment, a cold snort suddenly came into the ears of the two city lords.
"What?"
The two were startled and turned their heads to look.
But Gervis was as fast as lightning and had come close to him without him noticing.
"Critical strike with one sword!"
Gervis shouted coldly, and instantly slashed out a red light.
"Fire Shield!"
"Fire Shield!"
Boom! The red light came later but arrived first, directly blocking the two sword lights above Long Yi and the others' heads. With a roar, the two sword lights were firmly blocked.
In the moment before the explosion, Gervis released shields for several nearby magicians.
Not only was the sword light blocked, but the shock wave was also offset by the fire shield released by Gervis. Long Yi and the others were unharmed, which made the two city lords open their eyes wide with disbelief on their faces.
"How can you be so powerful?!"
If they fought alone, it would not be surprising for Gervis to block their attacks.
But now they have joined forces, and the situation was resolved so easily. I'm afraid that only Edward and Batman could do that.
"Long Yi, take everyone away!"
Gervis did not pay attention to the two of them at first, but looked at Long Yi first and gave a faint instruction.
"Yes, Master!"
When Long Yi and others heard the order, they responded and quickly evacuated to other places to continue fighting.
"God of Killing, you are too arrogant!"
The two city lords did not know that Batman was defeated by Gervis. Seeing Gervis' attitude, how could they, the lords of the city, tolerate it?
He immediately looked sullen and prepared to attack.
"Oh! You should stop caring about my arrogance and pay more attention to how much ransom I am going to pay this time!"
Seeing that his men had been cleared out, Gervis looked towards the two city lords with a faint smile on his face.
He didn't plan to kill all the city lords who were allies of the Golden Shield Family.
Because of the dying counterattacks of more than a dozen holy cities, even the Sky City has to think twice, and it is more likely that the orcs will take advantage of the situation.
Therefore, he would spare the lives of these city lords in exchange for benefits. By then, as long as the Golden Shield Family was wiped out, these city lords of the Holy City would naturally not be able to cause any trouble.
They are just allies. Without the Golden Shield Family, they naturally have no reason to fight against me.
"Let us pay the ransom, then we'll see if you have the ability to kill the God. Do you really think we are..."
"Nonsense! Blood Moon Death Slash!"
Before the two city lords could finish their words, Gervis had already raised the Crimson Moon impatiently.
Immediately, the two city lords shut their mouths obediently, then waved their swords to resist with solemn faces.
"Blazing Slash!"
"Chaos Slash!"
Boom! In an instant, three terrifying sword beams collided with each other, making a deafening explosion.
"careful!"
However, the next moment when the explosion had just subsided slightly, one of the city lords suddenly exclaimed.
It turned out that the blood-red sword light of Gervis did not dissipate in the bombardment, but continued to bombard them with its remaining force.
Boom! It was too late for the two city lords to escape, so they could only circulate their fighting spirit to resist.
The next moment, a second explosion was heard in the field, and the red sword light instantly completely submerged the two city lords.
"Ahem! You are still so young, why are you so strong?"
The smoke and dust at the scene slowly dissipated, and finally the unbelievable voices of the two city lords were heard.
At this time, the two men had become extremely miserable, with pits all over their armor and blood at the corners of their mouths.
"Come to think of it, I don't know how I became so strong!"
Gervis was also a little puzzled. In just over a minute, he had become more than half a point stronger.
"You... Killer God, you are going too far!!"
Gervis was telling the truth, but the two city lords felt that Gervis was playing tricks on them and almost fainted.
His face flushed as he yelled at Gervis, while at the same time he raised the sword in his hand and continued to slash at Gervis.
"If you don't believe it, forget it!"
Seeing the two of them blushing, Gervis shrugged helplessly.
"Blood Moon Death Slash!"
Then Gervis roared as well and attacked the two again!
Boom! "Ah!"
Suddenly there was an even louder roar.
Then there were the screams of the two city lords, and it was obvious that they were seriously injured this time.
"hey-hey!"
Gervis felt the so-called power in front of him, and immediately chuckled. Then, without any hesitation, he flew towards the two city lords, ready to capture them alive.
"The God of Killing is mighty! Kill!"
Gervis's performance was immediately seen by the soldiers fighting nearby, and they all showed joy.
If he could restrain the two Holy City Lords so easily, then their Sky City coalition would definitely win today.
"kill!"
In an instant, the soldiers of the Sky City coalition began to exert their strength, forcing the already smaller Golden Shield family coalition to retreat step by step.
"Oh no! Jer and the others can't defeat the God of Death! How can the God of Death be so strong? Duke Batman, what should we do?"
While Batman and other city lords were fighting, they did not forget to observe the battle situation on the field. They found that Gervis was so strong and their men had been suppressed. Their faces suddenly turned ugly.
"My fellow city lords, don't worry about him. We can't retreat now. We can only fight to the death! I will deal with the killer later!"
Batman was also terrified. If the God of Death had the strength he had now, he would not have been able to run away and would have died under the sword of the God of Death.
But now...
Batman couldn't help but sneer in his heart and glanced towards the west.
Now he just needs to keep these allies of his stable! "We should be there soon! I'll let you be arrogant for a few minutes, and then I'll see how desperate you will be!"
Batman said to himself.
Several city lords of the Golden Shield family's allies were unaware of Batman's plan. They also knew that the army was deeply trapped and it was impossible to retreat. After hearing Batman's assurance, they had no choice but to fight to the death! "Kill!"
Several city lords really started fighting for their lives!
If all these elite troops were killed, the strength of their holy city would definitely be greatly damaged, and they might even fall from a middle-ranking holy city to the bottom of the list. This is something they are unwilling to bear.
…
Next, the fighting between the two sides became even more intense.
It only took Gervis five minutes to capture the two lords of the holy city alive.
"Hey! Think carefully about how much ransom you can pay!"
Gervis took out the mithril rope and tied up the two bruised and battered Holy City Lords, then smiled knowingly.
The two city lords no longer had any intention of refutation in the face of Gervis' words. They were tied to the ground without saying a word, looking as pale as death.
"Long Yi, take the two city lords away!"
Gervis called out to Long Yi in the distance.
"Yes, Master!"
Soon, Long Yi brought his men over and suppressed the two city lords.
The two city lords were captured and Gervis immediately looked towards Batman.
"The next thing is..."
Boom! Boom! However, just as Gervis was about to set off to that side and deal with the other lords of the Holy City, a thunder suddenly rose on one side.
All I could hear was a roar that could be heard all day long from the distant horizon.
"What's going on?"
"Oh no! A large group of people is coming from the west!"
In addition to Gervis, the city lords present also saw the situation over there.
They all slowed down their attacks and looked towards the west cautiously.
For a moment, all the city lords in the scene looked at each other, and a strange atmosphere filled the scene.
Both the Golden Shield Family coalition and the Sky City coalition were confused and suspected that the group of people were the enemy's reinforcements.
When Gervis saw the reactions of the city lords, his heart skipped a beat.
"Where on earth did this group come from? Could they be orcs?"
Gervis couldn't help but feel puzzled. As one of their own, he naturally knew that the reinforcements that appeared at the end of the horizon were not from his side.
But looking at the appearance of those city lords of the Golden Shield Family, it was obvious that it was not arranged by them.
"wrong!"
Suddenly, Gervis set his eyes on Batman.
Although Batman also had a puzzled look on his face at this time, Gervis clearly saw a smile flash across the corner of his mouth!
"This is Batman's conspiracy! And it's a very big conspiracy!"
Thinking of the cities that were deliberately destroyed along the way and the unreasonable sneak attack last night, Gervis instantly thought that Batman might be planning something.
If this speculation is true, then Batman is likely to betray even his own allies, otherwise there would be no need for him to stage such a self-directed sneak attack last night.
"Duke Edward, what should we do now!"
Soon Gervis came to Edward and others, and at this time other city lords began to ask Edward questions.
In such a situation, if another surprise attack came, it would be enough to make them lose face.
"Everyone! Give the order to gather the formation immediately!"
Edward also realized that something was wrong. He could naturally see the confusion and astonishment of the city lords of the Golden Shield Family, so he decisively gave orders to the city lords.
"good!"
The city lords did not hesitate at all and immediately began to order the messengers to issue an order to withdraw from the battle.
If it happened on an ordinary day or during a major war, this retreat would naturally mean a major defeat.
But at this time, the city lords of the Golden Shield Family were also at a loss, so not only did the gathering here not cause any losses, but the other side also sent people to gather the troops.
If the situation is not right, they will naturally run away as soon as possible.
Although Batman was a little disappointed when he saw this situation, he could not stop it. After all, gathering the troops now was the best option. Even if he ordered the city lords to continue fighting, I am afraid they would not listen.
Boom! Boom! As time passed, the team on the horizon grew larger and larger, and the city lords in the field gasped.
The unknown team that was surging forward was so huge that there was no end in sight.
"This... this must be an army of 100,000!"
Although the identities of the people coming could not be identified yet, their number could be roughly estimated.
"No less than eighty thousand, Duke Edward. What shall we do now?"
Johnson looked at the team that came with ill intentions and asked Edward for advice.
"Let's retreat back to camp!"
Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible to continue fighting with the Golden Shield Family.
It is impossible to continue attacking the city before figuring out the situation, so you can retreat to the camp and rely on the camp to defend it.
Although it is only a temporary base, it can play a significant role with the simple wooden wall blocking it.
"good!"
A group of city lords responded and prepared to evacuate.
“It’s too late…”
But at this moment, Gervis suddenly spoke.
"What?"
Johnson and others haven't reacted yet.
"Look at the woods behind the camp!"
Gervis reminded everyone.
The next moment, Edward and others immediately looked towards the east, only to see groups of birds and beasts soaring into the sky and crying continuously in the woods not far from the camp. It was obvious that a large group of people were also heading towards them in the woods.
The reason why no one noticed it before was simply because they were attracted by the noise from the west.
"Who are they? Why are there people even in the east?"
This time all the city lords were really shocked. Looking at the movement in the woods, there were at least tens of thousands of people, and they were ready to surround them all.
It is absolutely impossible to withdraw to the camp now.
“It’s the natives!”
"Hey, we haven't seen these natives on the way here. Where did they come from? They look familiar, as if we've seen them somewhere before!"
"This... is the Golden Shield Family..."
Because the forest in the east was very close, many people had emerged from it at this time. Everyone had seen their appearance clearly and immediately recognized that these people were the natives of the God's Falling Land.
Moreover, they noticed that these natives were very similar to the natives that the Golden Shield Family interacted with.
There are two types of natives in the Land of God's Fall. One type looks no different from humans.
The other type has slight differences in appearance from humans due to various reasons, such as bloodline, etc.
For example, the natives that the Golden Shield Family is friendly with have dry, cracked and dark red skin, like mud, and are easy to identify.
The large group of natives that came suddenly in front of them was just like that! After recognizing the origins of the two teams of surprise troops, everyone looked at Batman in doubt! Batman finally smiled when he saw that the identity of the natives was exposed.
"Edward, I didn't expect that! You will die today!"
"Bartman! Is this your plan?!"
Edward really didn't expect that Batman could contact these natives.
You must know that the Land of God’s Destruction is extremely vast, and the location will change every time it is reopened.
Therefore, trying to get in touch again is as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack.
But at this time, Batman happened to find it.
"Haha! Edward, you're right, this is my plan!"
As the native team got closer, Batman could no longer suppress his excitement.
This time he can finally capture the Sky City in one fell swoop.
"Duke Bateman, why didn't you tell me earlier? Haha! We thought they were enemies!"
"Yes! Duke Bateman, you scared us a lot. It turns out you were prepared!"
After getting Batman's confirmation, the city lords of Sky City all looked gloomy.
However, the city lords of the Golden Shield Family were finally freed from their worries and fears, and came to Batman to flatter him.
"hehe!"
Batman smiled at several flattering city lords.
Poof! But the next moment, Batman's smile suddenly turned fierce, and at this moment, there was a sound of swords entering flesh.
"Uh...Batman, you..."
In an instant, both Gervis and Batman's allies were stunned.
The person who took action was the smiling Batman, but the person he killed was the ally who was flattering him.
The city lord's chest was pierced directly by the long sword, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Until his death, he could not understand why Batman attacked him.
As for the other city lords, after seeing this scene, they flew away from Batman and looked at Batman with extremely horrified eyes.
"Haha! Sorry everyone, I think the Holy Alliance is too loose. Why can't we build an extremely powerful human nation like we did hundreds of years ago?"
Batman slowly pulled the sword out of the chest of the Lord of the Holy City, and then said something with a grim smile.
"hiss!"
All of a sudden, all the city lords gasped.
They didn't expect that Batman had such great ambitions, and even took his own allies into account.
"Batterman, we are your allies!"
A moment ago, everyone thought they could win a great victory against the Sky City coalition today, but before they could last two breaths, they found that even they had been betrayed. One can imagine how unwilling everyone was.
"Sorry! I don't need allies!"
But Batman shook his head.
"Baartman! You will be despised by the world for being so treacherous!"
At this point, several city lords knew that there was no chance of recovery. Their faces flushed, and they were even tempted to take action! "Haha! When my Golden Shield Family reigns over the Sacred Continent, who dares to say anything?"
Batman sneered, paused and continued.
"Besides, you are just the beginning. There will be other city lords to accompany you in the future. Don't worry, just go with peace of mind!"
After saying this, Batman knew that he couldn't stay any longer, so he immediately mounted his horse and galloped away.
Even if everyone wanted to chase after him, it was too late.
Thousands of Batman's elite troops also began to evacuate at this time. They were originally at the outermost edge of the battle circle, and they evacuated quickly at this time. The city lord's men were too late to stop them.
"High Priest Kari, kill them all, leaving no one alive!"
At this time, the natives finally arrived a mile away. After Batman met up with the natives, he immediately said something to the high priest in the front.
"Okay, Bartman! We'll keep our promise!"
The high priest named Kari immediately responded after hearing Batman's words, and then waved behind him.
"Kill! Leave no one alive!"
"Yes, High Priest!"
When the natives saw High Priest Kari coming down, they continued to move towards Gervis and his men without any hesitation.
…
"Duke Edward, it's time for us to break out!"
Seeing more than 100,000 natives sweeping over there, when the city lords were at a loss, Gervis immediately spoke to Edward.
“Maybe I can’t get out!”
Edward showed a rare hint of bitterness.
There are 120,000 to 130,000 indigenous people in the west, and 70,000 to 80,000 indigenous people in the east.
That is to say, the total number of the indigenous people this time is about 200,000. Under the double-sided attack, it is extremely difficult for them to break through.
"Duke Edward, we must give it a try no matter what. Otherwise, we will be trapped here and die!"
Gervis knew that the chances of leading the army to break out were slim, but he was not in the habit of sitting and waiting for death.
"Then give it a try!"
"My fellow city lords, let's break out to the east. If that doesn't work, let's flee on our own and inform other holy cities of what Batman did!"
Although the loss of his men was inevitable, the city lords still had a chance to escape thanks to their superior strength, so Edward immediately gave instructions to the city lords.
"Okay, let's fight our way out and make the deeds of that bastard Batman known to the world!"
The city lords also acted decisively and followed Edward's words to prepare for a breakout.
Afterwards, all the city lords went towards their respective teams.
"If you guys still want to survive, you'd better break out with us!"
When all the city lords left, Gervis suddenly saw the city lords who wanted to go to Batman's camp and shouted to them.
These guys are the most unlucky ones, as they were actually plotted against by their own allies.
"Oh! Okay, Lord Gervis, Lord Edward, we will break through with you!"
The city lords reacted immediately after hearing Gervis' words.
From then on, their army of 80,000 people broke out to the east.
"kill!"
Soon, Gervis and his men encountered the natives who blocked their way, and a fierce battle broke out! At this time, the 100,000 natives in the rear also pressed forward, surrounding Gervis and his men.
Although Gervis and his team were the elite from various holy cities, they were surrounded by the natives and immediately fell into a disadvantage.
Every step they took towards the east would result in heavy casualties.
However, Gervis's men suffered the least casualties because they had the support of magicians.
"Blood Moon Death Slash!"
At this time, Gervis was firing at full force, holding back at all.
Boom! Puff! As the blood-red sword light fell, the natives blocking the road in front of them fell to the ground in an instant.
Gervis did not stop, and immediately led his subordinates to move forward through the temporary gap.
In fact, it's not just Gervis, other city lords are the same.
For example, Edward, Johnson and others took the lead, wanting to lead their men to break out as quickly as possible.
If they stayed for one more minute, they would lose dozens or even hundreds of their men.
Gradually, with the full efforts of several city lords, they actually broke through to the edge of the native encirclement.
Seeing that the road ahead would soon be clear, all the city lords showed joy on their faces and worked even harder.
"High Priest Kari! They are about to break through!"
Batman was standing not far away and saw this scene, and he became anxious.
Gulu! Gulu! At this moment, a carriage came beside Batman and the high priest.
"Don't worry! They can't get away!"
When Cary heard Batman's words, he didn't react. He just answered him lightly, then quickly turned over and jumped off his mount, then came to the front of the carriage.
"Welcome to the Lord!"
High Priest Kari came to the front of the carriage and knelt respectfully on the ground in front of Batman's puzzled gaze.
"What?"
Even Batman was shocked by Carey's actions and words.
Although he knew that gods once existed in the Land of Fallen Gods, he didn't know how many tens of thousands of years ago that was.
Now, the action of High Priest Kari was beyond everyone's expectation.
Batman could no longer sit still, so he immediately got up from the ground and stood aside, staring at the carriage.
Buzz! The next moment, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the carriage, and a faint red and black mist came out from the carriage.
When the fog spread, Batman shuddered suddenly and felt cold all over.
"Lord God, this is the mortal leader who is cooperating with us. He promised to provide me with a steady supply of people for sacrifice within a hundred years!"
Cary was not surprised at all and continued to speak respectfully to the carriage.
Crash!
As soon as Carri finished speaking, the curtains of the carriage opened automatically without wind, revealing the scene inside the carriage.
Surprisingly, the carriage was empty except for a statue on the seat.
Batman recognized this statue. It was this statue that the Golden Shield family returned to Cary in exchange for their friendship.
The red and black mist was released from this statue.
Buzz! The next moment, the statue flashed red again. Bartman felt a flash in front of his eyes, and then he looked closely and saw a figure made of black mist standing in front of the scissor carriage. The figure was a little hazy and illusory, with only two red lights in his eyes.
"Lord God!"
When Kari saw the human-shaped black mist appear, his tone was full of piety.
"Go ahead!"
The next moment, a strange and low voice was heard from the hazy black fog.
"Yes, Lord God!"
When Kari heard this, he immediately responded and then waved to several guards not far away!
Soon, four guards came close to the carriage.
The human-shaped black shadow raised his hands slightly, and four streams of black mist flew towards the foreheads of the guards and disappeared into them.
After doing all this, the humanoid black mist disappeared silently, and the curtain of the carriage closed automatically! ...
"Go and kill all those powerful human beings now!"
"Yes, High Priest!"
Following Cary's order, the four men quickly rushed towards Gervis and others who were about to break out.
Sorry guys, I was lazy and stopped updating for so long! However, the finale has been written! It will be uploaded today! Several big guys have given me rewards in the past few days. Because I haven't updated and didn't have time to thank them, I'm grateful here!
