Age of Arcane

"Morning Glory Street has been attacked by headhunters. Are there any civilians who have evacuated here... Ask for help! Ask for help!"

A sound-raising fruit was crushed by a Wangting patrol soldier. When the fruit burst into sound waves, the patrol soldier immediately called for help.The sound was continuously amplified in the swaying sound waves, and spread outward steadily.

There are two other companions beside this royal court patrol soldier. They are guarding the door of a shop together, standing in a triangular defensive formation.The first one holds a vine shield and rapier with defensive spells, and the second one is aimed outside.

On the road outside the shop, five flying mantises hovered close to the road. They blocked their strong and sharp scythe feet in front of them, and then used a small rapid displacement to avoid the aiming of the patrol soldiers' bows and arrows.More than a dozen hunters had already descended from the Flying Mantis, and they also adopted the formation of front shield and back bow to surround the three patrolmen in the shop.

There are many corpses on the road, most of them are hunters, there are also forest elves civilians, and a few royal patrols.

An owl fell from the sky, and a flying mantis stepped forward and impaled the wounded owl.

The royal patrols in the shop showed angry eyes. The owl was their partner and their other eye.The dead are just their last owls, and the loss of eagle eyes has made them lose their sense of the overall situation.

The patrols did not rush out out of anger, and there were more than a dozen civilians in the corner of the shop behind them.

Not only will the three of them die if they rush out, these elves will also be killed by the headhunters.

I don't know if the distress signal can bring reinforcements.

The young patrolman flicked the rapier in his hand, and the enchantment activated made the sword glow green.Then he said to his companions behind him: "We must hold on, Emerald Lake will definitely come to rescue us."

"Yes, captain." The two patrolmen replied together.

"Wow!" The last hound also barked. It had a shocking wound on its body, but it was still lying at the master's feet, waiting for the order to attack.

The hunters outside began to shrink the encirclement, and there were two hunter mages bouncing around and chanting spells behind them, as well as the arc of light refraction brought by the stalker when he moved.

"Get ready to fight." The patrol captain said in a low voice, with the sound of children crying next to his ears.

The green glow was attached to the arrowhead of the arrow, and the whole alchemy arrow vibrated violently due to the activation of the magic.The archer holds the bow firmly and controls the string, aiming at the hunters who are approaching step by step.

And just when the patrolmen were about to fight to the death, a rain of arrows poured down from an oblique direction.The hunters facing the store were unprepared for this attack, and most of them were shot down in an instant.

Without giving this group of hunters time to reorganize, a five-man patrol squad descended from the sky. Their strength was significantly higher than that of ordinary patrols. Using swords and arrows, they quickly and neatly wiped out the remaining hunters. clean.

"It's the Emerald Lake Guard!" The young patrolman recognized the uniform of this patrolling squad, and he shouted excitedly to the civilians in the room: "King Sanye sent his most elite patrollers, we are saved !"

Outside, the four members of the Emerald Lake Guard lined up in a guard formation, and the hounds rushed out to cut the necks of the hunters who were not yet dead.The leader was a female elf. She put the rapier back into its scabbard, and then came to the royal patrol and asked: "We have received your signal. How many civilians are there?"

"Beautiful red-haired lady, thank you and your companions for saving us from the fate of being killed and beheaded. There are sixteen forest elf civilians and three humans, including three cute and crying children, Four elves were injured and incapacitated.

May I know your name?When the war is over, I will definitely bring the most beautiful fairy flowers that bloom in the morning..."

The red-haired elf stopped the patrolling soldier from continuing: "This is the time of war, don't waste precious time by piling up words. This block is the main air assault area of ​​the headhunters, you immediately protect these civilians and move to Pelican Square, Emerald Lake Guard A safe zone is established there.

My soldiers and I will cover..."

Just as the red-haired elf was about to let the patrols lead the civilians to evacuate, a huge explosion sounded behind her.The fighting instinct made the red-haired elf instantly cast magic to prop up a shield for himself, and then drew his sword and turned to face outward.

Then I saw my four subordinates being sent flying from a distance, and after rolling a few times, lying on the ground, life and death were unknown.

The center of the explosion was surrounded by smoke and dust.

The red-haired elf swung his sword, and an arc-shaped sword glow cut through the smoke and dust.

when!
It seemed that some kind of metal had been chopped.

The smoke and dust fell, revealing a tall figure inside.

Then a pair of wings spread out behind the figure, and in the flapping, the gravel shot towards the elves like bullets.

"It's the hunting angel!" The red-haired elf saw what he was facing, and immediately shouted behind him: "I tried my best to hold it back, you run quickly... don't look back, how many can escape! "

After shouting, the red-haired elf rushed towards the hunting angel.The magic shield shrank and solidified into a small round shield in her left hand, and she stabbed a long sharp edge with the rapier in her right hand.

In front of her, there was no expression on the dead bark-like face of the hunting angel, and the green eyes were shining.A few thick vines broke through the hard road and rose up, twisting and winding towards the red-haired elf.At the same time, the hunting angel swung the barbed stick, piercing the air at high speed and making a whistling sound.

The red-haired elf used his body skills to avoid the entanglement of the vines, and approached the hunting angel at an extremely fast speed.Facing the wooden stick that was thrown from the front, a gust of wind rose under her feet, and her body fluttered like a leaf jumping over the wooden stick.She hit the upper end of the wooden stick with the shield, adjusted her posture in the air with the help, and then stabbed the sword at the neck of the hunting angel.

But a few sharp leaves flew up from the wingtips of the hunting angel's wings, whirled and sliced ​​towards the red-haired elf's body.

If the red-haired elf continued to attack, he might not be able to kill the hunting angel, but he would definitely die in the leaf blade.As a last resort, she could only flip in the air, dodge the attack from the gap between the leaves, and then kicked a vine backflip to dodge a stick from the hunting angel.

If the attack failed, the red-haired elf lost the initiative, and could only barely protect himself from the multiple attacks of hunting angels.

During this period, three patrol soldiers quickly covered the civilians and carried the wounded out of the room.

The squad leader stopped and said to his two subordinates: "You protect the civilians and go to Pelican Park, and I will help the Emerald Lake Guard. They came to save us, we can't leave them alone."

Facing a hunting angel, if there is no reinforcements, it is almost certain to die, so the team leader still chooses to stay.

The squad leader drove his men away, drew his sword and turned to face him, followed by his hound limping.

At this time, the red-haired elf had no ability to counterattack at all.

For their ordinary Emerald Lake Guard, even if it is full, it may not be able to deal with a Hunting Angel, let alone being the only one left after being attacked by a Hunting Angel.

Is it going to die?

The red-haired elf couldn't dodge once, and was hooked by the vines that came out of the ground.She saw the patrolling soldiers rushing over and shouted loudly: "Don't save me, run!"

A leaf flew and cut the red-haired elf's neck.Then a large group of leaves flew over, cutting countless bloody flowers on the elf's body...

The elf patrol rushed over frantically.

At this time, the ground shook violently, and a huge figure passed over his head.

Is that... War Machine?
No, it's the Steam Titan of the Golden Shield Empire!

The elf patrolman recognized this weapon made of steel. He had seen these big guys at the port of Emerald Port, but he didn't expect this seemingly cumbersome machine to be so flexible.

As the ground shook, one steam titan after another rushed past him.They hold huge war knives in both hands, and easily cut off the blocking vines; the magic projectiles on their shoulders continuously cast powerful magic, use intensive firepower to limit the actions of hunting angels, and then use negative magic to weaken them .

The Hunting Angel, who was showing off his prestige just now, seems to be a chick surrounded by a group of eagles. The sharp and circling leaves are all embedded under the steel armor, posing no threat to the driver behind the armor.

Soon, Hunting Angel's wings were pulled by two steam titans, and then cut in half by another steam titan.

The battle is over.

The patrolman walked up to the red-haired elf, knelt down and picked her up.She was covered in blood and was already lifeless.

A Steam Titan walked up to the patrol and stopped, the cockpit door opened: "Sorry, we are late!"

The patrolman looked up, it was a young human, wearing the Golden Shield Empire uniform, with the rank of colonel.

"My lord, can we still win?"

"Of course I can win! Along the way, I saw countless elf warriors fighting for their homeland. Many of them died, but the living ones were still fighting.

Didn't you also launch a charge against the hunting angel alone? "

"But I didn't save her, and I didn't even ask her name."

"Patrol, there are still many elves waiting for you to rescue. Follow us, most of the headhunters are too small for us, we need your help to clean up those little things, so that we can concentrate on dealing with hunting angels."

The patrol soldier gently put the red-haired elf down, and he stood up and saluted the humans: "My lord, I am Sergeant Ned Cervantes of the Royal Patrol Corps. Thank you for your rescue, may I know your name? "

"Colonel Rossetti Owen, Colonel of the Steam Titan Training Corps in Raging City. Sergeant Cervantes, I hope you will gather scattered patrols along the way to follow us, and we will work together to drive the headhunters out of the Emerald Court."

"Follow your order, Colonel Owen..." The patrolman didn't finish his sentence, he looked up at the sky blankly, and the surrounding light dimmed. "Then... what is that? Is it a mountain floating in the air?"

Owen looked up and saw that it was the Kirov airship. The 300-meter-long hull was flying at low altitude, like a floating mountain.

All Steam Titans salute the Kirov airship.

Owen said proudly: "That is the super-heavy airship Kirov newly built by the empire, and the great chief minister of the empire, Mr. Meteor, is on the airship at this time.

Do you doubt victory now, Patrolman?

For the elf you love, for the country you guard... let's fight! "

Owen sat back in the driver's seat, the cockpit closed, and the steam titans charged forward along the street in great strides.

The patrol took one last look at the red-haired elf lying on the ground, then turned and chased after the steam titan.

The Kirov super-heavy steam airship moved slowly.

Luke stood by the window looking down at the fighting city.Dai'er stood beside him, her face pale from being frightened by this tragic battlefield.

"Headhunters are coming in. We...are we late?"

Luke replied: "It's not too late! Although it seems that there are headhunters everywhere in the city, the outer defense line of the Emerald King's Court has not been breached. The essence of this kind of concentrated air force to carry out airborne operations in the city is that the winning rate is very low. As long as the Emerald Royal Court can withstand the initial pressure, even without our help, we can eliminate the invading headhunters, but we will only pay a greater loss."

Hearing Luke's answer, Dai'er finally felt relieved.At this time, several hunting angels rushed towards the airship, and the airship immediately released a large number of gargoyles to meet them. At the same time, the airship shot dense magic from all over to block the attackers.

Dai'er shouted in surprise: "Are those angels?"

"Those are hunting angels. A stupid angel was hunted by headhunters, so there are these things. Don't worry, hunting angels have limited intelligence, and these few can't threaten the airship's defense system.

The steam titans on the ground have already confronted the hunting angels, and with the cooperation of the forest elves, they will soon be able to repel the attack of the headhunters. "

At this moment, Karina hurried up from the lower bridge.

Holding a communicator in her hand, she reported to Luke: "Master Chief Assistant, Colonel Owen has sent a message that the forest elves have surrounded a very powerful hunting angel. But they can only seal him in the barrier , The forest elves tried many methods, but they couldn't kill him.

Colonel Owen is mobilizing the nearby steam titans, preparing to launch a storm with the forest elves. "

Luke immediately took the communicator from Kailinna: "Colonel Owen, I ordered the attack to stop immediately. That's not the hunting angel, it's the hunting king Nilterye!"

From the communicator came Owen's voice ordering to stop the attack.

"Let the elves stop immediately, that's not hunting angels, it's hunting king Nierteye! Lord Shoufu, Lord Shoufu! We have stopped operations. Now the king of hunting is sealed between four tall buildings In the enchantment, if you don't kill him immediately, the enchantment won't last long under his attack.

The forest elves are now preparing their magic, and they may attack alone. "

Luke said to Owen: "Tell the forest elves that Niertje is good at space skills and strengthen the space interference of the enchantment. Their magic may kill Niertje, or they may let Nirtje go.

Now we need to cooperate and get rid of him with the least cost.

You go and delay the forest elves, I will go there immediately. "

Without waiting for Owen's reply, Luke said to Kailina, "Prepare to guide the Magic Titan."

Kailinna stood at attention: "Obey, Lord Chief Assistant!"
