The knight in the abyss

Chapter 596 Contractual Obligations
Lancelot brought the horn to his mouth and blew lightly. It didn't seem to make any sound, but the vibration in his hand made him confirm that the magic item had been activated.A few breaths later, a khaki-yellow portal lit up on the Styx River not far away, and a two-masted sailing ship with the head of a sword-holding Evil Demon appeared from it, and quickly approached the river bank where everyone was. .

"The Duke of Bones greets you, sir." A Duyinmo on the ship's side greeted everyone, and Lancelow recognized that it was Weiss who signed the contract with him at that time, "As agreed in the contract, we Called. What's that up ahead? A siege in progress? I see why you need a boat, come up and tell me where you're going..."

"We do need a boat, but it's not for travel." Lancelow led his companions aboard the skeleton battleship, which was about [-] feet long and [-] feet wide. He pointed in the direction of Shuangqiao Town, Said to Du Yinmo, "Please drive over there."

"But that's the battlefield over there." Weiss's corpse-like face showed a look of surprise, "Why do you want to go there?"

"Destroy those floating bridges." Lancelot replied succinctly, "Use this battleship."

"Absolutely not!" Du Yinmo shouted immediately, "This ship will be smashed to pieces!"

"I'll split those pontoons, you just keep the boat going."

"No!" Du Yinmo almost screamed, "We are never hired to fight!"

"According to the contract we signed, you have to provide services for free when I need them. Since there is no compensation, it is naturally not considered employment. In addition, although the contract stipulates that you can refuse to participate in the battle, you cannot refuse to sail the ship to my request. As long as that place can be reached by sailing, and I know its exact location." Lancelow stared at Du Yinmo with a resolute look, "I don't need you to join the battle now, I just let you take the ship Drive in that direction...or would you rather bear the consequences of breaking the contract?"

The expression on Weiss' silent face was almost furious, but it proved that the human knight had indeed grasped his weakness.However, as a former commander-in-chief, Lancelow still understood the principle of combining kindness and strength. Seeing that the threat had already had an effect, he immediately added:

"I know what you care about most, this boat under our feet, right? But don't forget how it came here, we can get you the first one, and we can get you the second one. Also, if I remember correctly, Charon, the lord of the Styx, once made a rule that anyone who uses the Styx has to pay a price, and Tijana will offer a tribute to Charon every month. But look Those floating bridges, what did the devils pay for it? Did they pay any respect to the Lord of the Styx?"

Du Yinmo's eyes suddenly burst into flames, and he immediately turned around and walked towards the rudder, saying coldly:
"Of course I will abide by the contract, but if the boat falls apart, you can ask for more blessings. I have no obligation to rescue those who fall into the water...especially on the Styx."

"Guys, listen carefully." As the boat began to move, Lancelot seized the time to explain to his companions, "I will be responsible for destroying those pontoon bridges at the bow, if any devil jumps on the boat, it will be up to you Done. Karaline, Aramir, how many spells do you have left?"

"I basically don't use it much." The elf priest replied with a relaxed expression, "You don't need to worry about the treatment, just be careful not to fall overboard."

"But most of my spell slots were used up in the battle with the white dragon." Kara Lin seemed to be more anxious, "Now I only have three chances to cast first-level magic and two second-level magic. ..."

"It doesn't matter, everyone pay attention to protecting Kara Lin in a while, just play by ear. You still practice slings recently, right? But first, you have to get us a flag of Shuangqiao Town..."

The scholar froze for a moment, and immediately understood what Lancelot meant.He pulled out a small piece of wool from the pouch at his waist, and made a special gesture to the sky, and immediately a five-foot-long phantom flag appeared on the mainmast, on which was the emblem of Shuangqiao Town.

"Very good." Lancelot nodded, "Everyone get ready, let's end this battle!"

"it is good!!!"

Naturally, the warring parties could not see the skeleton battleship that appeared out of thin air, but the ordinary soldiers of the devil thought it was the second hand arranged by the officers, and the battleship itself was still some distance away, and had not yet entered the attack range of the Shuangqiao garrison.More eyes were still attracted by the three giant dragons. The flying units on both sides were unable to separate their hands for the time being, and they couldn't figure out what the intentions of these large lizards were for a while.

The leading blue dragon, Tatyana, didn't keep them guessing for too long. She deliberately flew past a fireball fired by a war machine, pretending to be irritated by the passing shells, and led the green and black dragons to swoop down suddenly. and go.When she was less than a hundred feet from the ground, she straightened her neck, and exhaled a thick breath of lightning from her mouth, which bombarded the war machine below like a thunderbolt.

Blue dragons have the longest breath range of any chromatic dragon, while green dragons have a larger cone-shaped breath.The embarrassing thing is that the dragon's breath of the green dragon is poisonous damage, and neither the war machines nor the devil itself is immune to poisonous damage.

But as the most intelligent species among chromatic dragons, green dragons can also use magic to solve problems when their breath doesn't work.Esserie spat out a string of strange syllables, which were spells recited in dragon language, and two light green rays of light shot out from her eyes, shining on a war machine that was about to fire.Accompanied by a dazzling flash, the war machine turned into a cloud of fly ash in situ, the effect was exactly the same as the disintegration technique performed by Tijana with super magic power.

Flying at the end is Venerica.Black dragons can breathe acid, a damage that is very effective against demons and constructs alike.However, as a young dragon, Venerica's breath has a range of only thirty feet, and its power is relatively small, but coupled with her fangs and claws, it is enough to destroy a war machine.

There were not many siege engines in the Devil Legion, and the giant dragons destroyed nearly half of them in one round of raids.Under the leadership of Tatiana, the three-headed dragon never resented fighting. Immediately after winning the battle, the three-headed dragon flew away, pretending to be leaving the battle, but in fact it was waiting for its breath to recharge before attacking again.

The dragon's sudden attack shocked everyone, and no one could turn a blind eye to this level of combat power, but it was a surprise to the devil, and it was a shock to the devil.Even ordinary Sumo soldiers could tell that the battle situation was rapidly developing in an unfavorable direction, but before new orders were issued, they could only continue to execute the original orders and wait for their turn to step on the pontoon bridge.
