Chapter 49 Sky Knight
West of the Cold Plains, Black Crow City.
The dark city walls were stained with blood, and the ancient city gates had long been shattered. Flames were spreading in the city like a plague. Civilians and soldiers were wailing one after another. People were crying and running everywhere. It was like a purgatory-like scene.
The fighting outside the city continues, with the carcasses of giant elephants like hills covered with arrows and spears.
O'Quinn's face was pale, and he was holding the broken giant sword on the ground with difficulty. The black armor on his body was already in tatters. A deep bone wound on his chest was dripping with blood, and his left eye, which was completely disabled, looked even more hideous and terrifying.
Not far from him, the great knight Bam fell to the ground, uncertain whether he was alive or dead.
As for the Lord of the Golden City, Roblei, he had died in battle half an hour ago. His head was cut off by a long sword, and his body fell in a pool of blood.
"I'm really surprised that you've persisted until now."
Not far from the opposite side, a man in rich clothes smiled and whispered. His body stood in the air, and the white silk in his hand was meticulously wiping a bloody sword. His elegant movements left the most picky noble speechless. The smile on his face was even more calm.
O'Quinn didn't speak. His face was pale, his sword-holding arm was trembling slightly, but his back was straight.
"To be honest, I really don't want to kill you."
"It's a pity that it doesn't work. Your talent is too strong. You can support me as a great knight for so long. You will become a knight within five years. If you don't eradicate it today, you will pose a threat to me sooner or later."
The man in rich clothes smiled and shook his head, with a hint of regret in his tone.
"Have you become a Sky Knight a long time ago? Phillip." Severe pain came from the wound on his chest. O'Quinn couldn't help but bit his tongue and said in a deep voice: "On the battlefield before, I killed two black crows in a row." Knight of the City, but you are indifferent just to bet everything on today?"
"Winning or losing at the moment is meaningless, only the winner in the end is the king!" Philip smiled calmly and shrugged indifferently, "Although we lost two great knights, as long as we can annihilate the 30,000 troops of the Four Cities Alliance in one fell swoop, Then it will all be worth it.”
O'Quinn gritted his teeth, his chest heaved violently, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.
In the recent war, the Allied forces captured Black Crow City with overwhelming force, and then the army marched straight in. O'Quinn thought he had a chance of victory, but wildfires buried deep under the city soared into the sky, destroying the Black Crow city that accommodated 30,000 Allied troops. Crow City burned into a sea of fire.
Countless soldiers were burned to death by the fire, and O'Quinn desperately led the remaining troops to escape from the city.
But at this moment, the Black Crow City army hidden in the wilderness had been waiting for a long time and surrounded the severely injured allied forces. Philip, the former Lord of Black Crow City who was rumored to have died of illness twenty years ago, suddenly appeared. And showed desperate terrifying strength.
No one thought that Black Crow City, which had been dormant for many years, would actually have a Sky Knight!
A fierce battle was inevitable. Philip, who had peak fighting spirit, faced three great knights at the same time, but still showed no fear. He killed the Golden City Lord Roblei and the Giant Elephant Leader Bam with strong means, and seriously injured the Kaiyuan City Lord Okui. kindness.
"Okay, it's over." Philip sighed quietly. The blood stains on the sword had been wiped away, and he threw away the blood-stained white silk.
"If you want to kill me, then do it!" O'Quinn grinned, a hint of madness flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath, held the broken giant sword with both hands, and the fighting spirit in his body burned like a fierce fire.
"Is there no news yet?" Enzo frowned and stood in front of the window, muttering to himself.
He looked into the distance, feeling inexplicably uneasy. There was calm in the wilderness, but Enzo always felt that this was the calm before the storm, as if something was about to happen.
"I hope everything goes well." Enzo turned around and sighed.
News just came back from the battlefield last night that O'Quinn has gathered 30,000 troops and plans to capture Black Crow City in one fell swoop today, completely ending the coexistence of five cities in the Cold Plains and ushering in a new era.
Thirty thousand troops attacked Black Crow City, and they should have been sure of victory.
But for some reason, as time went by, Enzo's uneasiness became stronger. He had sent rangers to the battlefield to investigate, but the news had not been returned, which made him more solemn.
"Nothing will happen to you." Enzo's eyes flickered and he prayed in his heart: "Father!"
Click! A bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the sky, and dark clouds suddenly began to cover the previously calm wilderness. Following a few dull thunders, storms poured in without warning, as unpredictable as the situation on the ice field.
Boom! There was another thunder.
Lightning dragged its long tail across the sky. In the forest on the ground, a figure wearing broken armor staggered forward. His burly body was already scarred, and his bloody arm dragged a half-broken sword.
"Cough! Cough!" His chest heaved up and down, and O'Quinn coughed up a few more mouthfuls of blood.
"Have you reached your limit?" O'Quinn held a dead tree with his trembling arms. A sad smile appeared on O'Quinn's face. "The power of the Sky Knight is really strong. Even if I have exceeded my own limit, I am still no match for him."
Not long ago, O'Quinn had a battle with the Sky Knight Phillip. He had no power to fight back, but in the desperate situation, he burst out with fighting spirit that exceeded his own limits. He was caught off guard and injured Phillip. At this time, there was a heavy rain.
O'Quinn took this opportunity to rush into the forest and run for his life.
"Through this forest, you will enter the territory of Kaiyuan." O'Quinn's consciousness began to blur, and his body was a little cold under the wash of the rain. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to cheer up, "We must live. Go down, I can’t die yet!”
