The Swordsman of Faerûn

Chapter 759
[Epee] Jacques Miles' confidence is the dragon hunting crossbow. As a military agent on the dark side of the Kingdom of Sembia, he has led the army to secretly help Sembia's large caravan open up trade routes more than once. Having fought giant dragons, hunted trolls, and expelled giant tribes, it can be said that he has experienced many battles and is extremely experienced.

Facing William, a small army with mixed members and no more than 200 people, Jacques Miles naturally did not think that his side would fail.

Moreover, in addition to the Dragon Hunting Crossbow, the Troll Gunners under Jacques Myers is also an extremely powerful elite team.

As we all know, trolls are also a branch of giants, and troll gunners are an ace troop that specializes in hunting trolls. The members of this team are basically elite fighters with strong skills, boldness and carefulness. Confront fearsome trolls and slay them with a flaming wargun.

According to Jacques Miles, the greatest weakness of the enemy is too few numbers.

Even if they have a powerful giant team, but the troll gunners take advantage of the city wall and have many knights and auxiliary soldiers as assistants. Even if the opponent is a slightly stronger cloud giant, they should be able to fight [-]-[-] without any problem. The most important thing is that there is a dragon hunting crossbow responsible for sniping giants by name. The epee commander believes that only five or six giants need to be killed, and the most difficult enemy will surely retreat involuntarily. After all, giants are notorious for not being good at fighting against adversity. .

When the sun was high in the sky, William had already led the giant siege team to stand outside the city wall of Bowbridge. Their position made the defenders on the wall quite uncomfortable. This position has a reputation in the classical army formation. It's called the Land of Three Arrows.

What is the land of three arrows?

We all know that in ancient military warfare, the bow and crossbow were always the first.When a standard bow or crossbow is fully drawn, the farthest distance it can shoot is usually called the place of an arrow.

The land of three arrows is the distance traveled by the arrows when the bow is shot three times for the first time.This distance is the most in line with the psychological safety distance allowed by both sides when the two armies lined up on the flat ground in the classical era, neither far nor close.Whether it is the first attacker or the defender, each has certain advantages.

William used the captured Bow Valley's standing crossbows as a standard to set the distance between the three arrows, but it made the Bow Valley guards standing on the city wall extremely uncomfortable, because their standing bows and crossbows could not harass the enemy and could attack the giant's weapon But there was only the dragon hunting crossbow. As for other ultra-long-range strike weapons, such as magic heavy crossbows, trebuchets and other equipment, Gongqiao Town had not been equipped with them before, and it was too late to prepare them now.

This time, William didn't continue to sit on the shoulder chariot as a master, but he put on his battle armor and stood at the front of the team with a knife and a gun.Because William had already vaguely sensed the terrible threat from behind the city wall, the threat from the dragon hunting crossbow.

Although the cloud giants were not William's confidant soldiers, even if one of these special units with special functions was lost, it would be a great loss.

The purpose of William leading the charge was to use himself to attract the enemy's firepower so as to reduce the cloud giant's casualties.

It's hard to say how far the dragon-hunting crossbow's range is, but based on the level at which it can shoot a giant dragon flying at an altitude of 1000 meters, it can be estimated that the horizontal range of this big killer will definitely make people desperate.

It can be said that except for William, who has a life-saving hole card, any other person or giant will basically be the result of hiccups as long as they are hit by a dragon hunting arrow.What's even more pitiful is that in order to ensure that the dragon hunting crossbow at full power can shoot and kill the dragon, its attack mode is not only three bursts, but also each crossbow has a permanent constant magic.

The only good news is that the reloading speed of the dragon hunting crossbow after three bursts is relatively slow, and the constant magic effect on it is also temporarily ineffective at this point in time.

It's a pity that William doesn't know the detailed information now. It should be said that apart from the commander of the Three Swords and his confidants, few people know that there is actually a dragon hunting crossbow hidden in Gonggu, let alone know the details of this dragon hunting crossbow. .

Although William did not know the details of the threat, he was not without means of dealing with it.

As the so-called martial arts in the world, everything is invincible, only speed can not be broken.This sentence is also appropriate here.

This time the team of giants stood scattered, and each cloud giant carried a heavy wooden shield made of logs.And William, who stood at the front of the team, directly opened a pair of flame wings more than ten meters long, which made him the most eye-catching cub on the entire battlefield!
The blazing red wings make William look like a gorgeous fire butterfly, just like some creatures in nature like to confuse natural enemies with bright colors and exaggerated shapes, William's exaggerated shape immediately attracted the attention of all enemies The force, including the hunting dragon crossbow, was no longer aimed at the cloud giant who seemed to be the tallest, but aimed at him who spread his wings and flew into the air.

Almost the moment William was aimed at by the dragon hunting crossbow, he felt an inexplicable chill like the one he experienced in his previous life when he was aimed at by a sniper rifle. The chill was so piercing that it almost made people shudder.

Accompanied by a charging roar, he unfolded his snake skin without hesitation, and flew in the air like a big colorful bird.

Almost at the moment when the Dragon Hunting Crossbow was activated, William also instantly activated [Rocket Flight], and then his flying speed instantly changed from Jiaqiaoer (Sparrow) level to Falcon level, as if suddenly shot by a bow. Like a catapult, it quickly broke through the barrier of the air, and rushed past the city wall of Bow Bridge in the blink of an eye.

And it was William's sudden acceleration that made him almost perfectly pass by the dragon-hunting crossbow fired at extremely fast speed.By the time the shooter controlling the Dragon Hunting Crossbow realized that the first shot had shot down the sky, William had almost crossed half of Bow Bridge City, and was rushing towards the location of the Dragon Hunting Crossbow, which was also the municipal building of Bow Bridge City, with an acceleration visible to the naked eye. And the mansion led by the Three Swords - Jiansai.

Sword Fortress is a huge castle-like fortress standing on a rock protruding from the surface of Bow Bridge. On the solid walls of this castle, ballistas and trebuchets that have not been installed on the outer walls of Bow Bridge City are placed. The remaining heavy armored cavalry were waiting in line on the square in front of the Sword Fortress, ready to launch a desperate assault on the enemy rushing into the city at any time.

At this time, the defensive commander of Jiansai was the last of the three swords commanders, "Double Swords" Kerimachus, who was also the dominant figure among the three swords commanders.When "Double Swords" Kylimakus realized that the Dragon Hunting Crossbow missed, he was involuntarily stunned like everyone else. Who would have thought that the disconnection of the magic net would affect the accuracy of the Dragon Hunting Crossbow? Again, no one has tried firing under these conditions.

However, Kerimachus was used to being a dictatorial boss, and his nerves and will were relatively strong. He was almost the first to react, and immediately screamed in a voice that almost ripped his throat: "Keep shooting from the dragon hunting crossbow! Burst mode! All ballistas! Catapults! Ready! Fire—"

Before Kerimachus's voice fell, William plunged headlong into the tower platform where the Dragon Hunting Crossbow was installed. Accompanied by several shrill and tragic screams, everyone already knew that manipulating the Dragon Hunting Crossbow Both the shooter and her combat team were killed.

Kylimarchus was almost going crazy. The people who controlled the Dragon Hunting Crossbow were all his closest and most trusted people, including his wife, his sister, and of course the other two confidantes of the leader.

Now, these people have clearly suffered misfortune.

But Kerimachus is worthy of being the boss of the three swords. He suppressed the grief in his heart with great perseverance, and screamed angrily: "Target tower! Everyone! Shoot——"

The attack that Kylimarchus was expecting did not appear in time. After waiting for a while, countless crossbow bolts covered the tower platform that once belonged to the hunting dragon crossbow in a somewhat messy manner.After all, for many ballista players, it is not an easy task to temporarily switch shooting targets.

The debris on the outer wall of the tower platform hit by the thick crossbow arrows flew, and many arrows even flew in through the gaps in the suspension platform, but the shooters did not hear the screams of the enemy when they were shot.

After firing the crossbow bolts, the archers didn't just stare blankly, but started the intense work of loading.It is not easy to load the ballista, and at least several people are needed to assist it to complete the winding and homing.

After William cleaned up the control team that controlled the dragon hunting crossbow, he felt great desire and fear for the sci-fi dragon hunting crossbow.

It was a slender cigar-shaped crossbow body made of silver-white metal—William guessed it was Mithril. It is fixed on a rotatable golden disc, which can be rotated at any angle according to the manipulator's will.

William is very familiar with this thing, this is not a dragon hunting crossbow at all, but an anti-aircraft gun.It is a tactical defensive weapon assembled by ancient human civilization to fight against enemies outside the sky, and the ammunition fired by this thing is not a dragon killing arrow, but a terrible particle flow.

The particle streams emitted from the three holes each have their own different effects. There is a [death ray] that directly causes the death of organisms, there is a [destruction beam] that destroys matter, and there is one that targets energy (magic) Equipped with [Great Cracking Light].

It can be said that no matter what type of enemy this anti-aircraft gun wants to deal with, it can basically find the corresponding ammunition mode.

Of course, if there is no activation password, this anti-aircraft gun will naturally not be able to exert its real effect, but the people of Bow Bridge can circumvent the password restriction and use this thing as a ballista, it has to be said that it is a kind of "genius" idea.

After observing the real thing of this ancient war weapon for a while, William blocked a few more crossbows that were fired at—we still call it the dragon hunting crossbow—the dragon hunting crossbow, and then turned into a streamer again. It flew out of the tower platform, and then swept towards the guards of Jiansai.

The gun is like a raging wave, the knife is like a firefly, and the person is like a swaying dragon. Even though William is alone, he has shown a destructive momentum.But seeing the swordsman guards, whether they were people in armor or all kinds of ballista equipment, were all destroyed one after another. The screams of death almost became an endless mourning song, and the god of death sang cheerfully beside William, praising With his contribution to the enrichment of the population of the underworld.

"Double Swords" Kylemakus screamed at the beginning and dispatched men to besiege William. When nearly one-third of the soldiers were beheaded by William's high-speed impact, the rest of the soldiers had already lost their minds and gave up one after another. The weapons and armor fled towards the outside of the sword fortress.

But at this time, there was a thunderous roar from the city wall of Bow Bridge City, and the walls built of stones and logs collapsed like sand sculptures, but it was the cloud giants who broke through the defense of the city wall. Those wall facilities that get in the way are being destroyed wantonly.

At this moment, Kerimachus looked at the situation of internal and external difficulties, but like a lunatic who lost his mind, he sat on the ground laughing wildly while beating the ground with tears streaming down his face.

The last guard in the sword fort who dared to resist also fell under William's battle gun, and the rest basically fled to the city streets outside.

William strolled up to Carey Markus, looking down at the maddened man.

This is a black-haired man with a strong figure. Although the years have left deep marks on his face, he still cannot erase his natural handsome temperament. Of course, if there are less twisted smiles and smiles on his face If there are extra tears, I believe this man will be more attractive.

Kerimachus raised his head, his dark brown eyes were filled with the taste of death, and he asked a little weakly: "Before I die, can you tell me that the one in front of me killed me and destroyed me?" Who are the people in the city?"

William said indifferently: "It's okay to tell you. I am William, a person who is about to unify the entire valley."

Kylemakus couldn't help laughing even louder when he heard that, and he yelled, "Unify Valley? Hahahaha! You want to be the second Rashan! What a fucking madman! Do you know that the last one wants to unify? What happened to the people of the valley?! He died! I killed him! Killed like a dog!

Now, like a dog, I am about to be killed by another person who wants to dominate the valley!Could this be the so-called revenge of fate? !Hahaha--"

Kerimachus, however, recalled Lashan's almost curse-like abuse when he killed the seriously injured Lashan: "Traitor! The traitor who betrayed the Valley Alliance! Even if you kill me today, there will always be One day, you will also die at the hands of the next king of the Unified Valley! My soul will watch you at the entrance of the underworld!"

Although Kerimakus was desperate, he still tried to make a final struggle, or take revenge.

Kerimachus changed to a more comfortable position and sat on the ground. He said, "Young king, do you know how much resistance there will be to unify the entire valley? Not only the various city-states within the Valley Alliance will strongly oppose it. , including several powerful kingdoms outside the valley, will try their best to stop you! Two years ago, King Lashan underestimated the strength of the internal and external enemies, so he was defeated and died."

William quietly watched Kerrimakus show off his lips, as if he was watching a fly struggling in a spider's web.

Carey Marcus felt that William's silence was a sign that he had been touched. Carey Marcus continued: "Young man, if you want to overcome the difficulties and fight against those who come from inside and outside, then you need Find a powerful foreign aid, or make them give up interfering with your unified plan through an agreement.

At least, you can't completely offend those powerful countries, such as Cormyr, such as Sembia. "
