Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 17 Dragon

It was noon, but the streets and alleys of Karen City were completely silent. All the merchants closed their shops early, and ordinary citizens locked their doors and windows and stayed at home, listening to the occasional movement from afar with trepidation.

Bang——Cezier kicked open a tall, spacious and luxurious courtyard door, waved his big hand and said, "Arrest."

Dozens of city guards in iron armor filed in under his command, and soon dragged out a tall, drunk man from the inner courtyard. Two strong soldiers cut the man's arms from left to right Pushing him to the front of Cecil, he kicked the opponent's leg from behind, forcing him to kneel down.

"Master Staff Officer, you" the man hadn't fully recovered from the wine, and hiccupped drunkenly, "What are you doing?"

Cezier lifted up the man's messy hair that covered half of his cheeks, pulled him closer by almost pulling his scalp, and carefully looked at the man's face.

"Hiss—it hurts!" The man couldn't help but exclaimed in pain.

"It's him, take him away." Cecil said coldly.

"Yes!" The soldiers replied in a deep voice, then pulled the man up from the ground, put on wrist and ankle shackles, kicked and beat him, and stuffed him into the prison van parked on the street.

Immediately afterwards, they rushed to the next target without stopping.

In the past two hours, similar situations have happened more than ten times—first, the [-] new troops arranged by Hector to be disarmed and then secretly executed, followed by the Rodel knights who stayed in the city They were also arrested one by one.

More than half of these knights were retainers of the Ofnir family, and the rest were Hectorov's personal guards who had followed Hector himself since the Second Lienian War, and they were regarded as part of his most trusted lineage.

But perhaps Cezier's actions were too swift and swift, or the lifestyle of these knight lords was too loose, so that they had already lost their intuition as warriors. In short, when the city guards broke into their house, they hardly encountered anything. Decent resistance, the only obstacle was that the soldiers were timid at the beginning, not daring to attack these guys—but this problem was quickly alleviated after Cecil killed a knight directly.

At [-]:[-], the seventeen Rodel knights who stayed in the city were escorted to the central walled city in the center of the city, where military fortresses, administrative organs and official residences were integrated.Cezier summoned all the non-Hectorov faction soldiers in the city, and announced that these knights, together with some rebel soldiers in the city, leaked military information to the enemy, causing the consuls, internal affairs officers and expeditionary troops to be ambushed. beheaded.

Within 5 minutes after the order was issued, this group of knights who had just been dragged out of their comfort zone and were still in a daze didn't even have time to think about who framed them before they were beheaded by soldiers with giant axes.

Then Cezier temporarily promoted a group of soldiers as lower-level officers, responsible for leading the team to maintain the state of martial law throughout the city. just in case.

Obviously, whether it is the staff officer who is fully in charge of military and political affairs in the city, or this group of elite soldiers who acted as the main force in this bloody incident are all left behind by Claywell.

For a year, he secretly used the fragrance technique countless times, subtly eroding them into puppets who only obeyed his orders.In his revenge plan, even if Hektorf seizes the one-in-a-million chance to escape back to the city of Karen, what awaits him will be only the closed city gate and random arrows.

But at this moment, for Clivell who was in the Sunset Pass, none of these were important.

He looked at his feet, and Hektorf's head rolled to the ground was already covered with dust and blood, and there was only a deep sense of horror in those mighty eyes that were always eager to devour others, facing the sudden death. However, this prominent baron who was born in a noble family can no longer see the honor and heroism of the past-in this point, he seems to be no different from those who have been defeated, killed, and despised by him.

"Revenge, how does it feel?" Turak sheathed his knife, walked forward with a smile and said, he also casually kicked Hector's head into the pile of corpses with the toe of his boot.

Clivell breathed a deep sigh of relief, but he didn't give any answer. There was no trace of excitement in his eyes. As a bystander, the only thing he could capture was a sense of relief and sadness.

After a long silence, he glanced at the demihumans and hybrids who were cleaning the battlefield, and said, "Kruger should be here soon, right?"

He knew that the hybrid priest who planned this matter with him was getting worse and worse, so he didn't doubt that he didn't come to the battlefield in person.

"Ah, you said that old guy?" It wasn't Turak who responded, but Soretto, who was walking slowly with a group of mixed warriors, "Before he came, he specifically asked us to wait until the place was cleaned up. You go to the camp of the coalition army, and everyone discusses the handover of various materials in the future."

"The coalition camp?" Clever instinctively sensed something was wrong, "The details of the transaction have already been agreed upon, even if there are still things to add, what can't be said here?"

"Tsk, that's what you said," Turak spread his hands innocently, "That's what he told us, can we still lie to you?"

"Look over there—" He pointed at the valley exit that was mostly blown away, "From there, we will reach our camp thirty miles north. There is no need to worry about moving two steps, right?"

Clivell subconsciously looked in the direction he pointed, and Soretto behind him also echoed: "Yes, yes."

Suddenly, a sense of vigilance surged in his heart without warning. He suddenly turned his head and saw Soretto suddenly pulled out the hammer from behind and smashed it to his side ribs with all his strength. At the same time, the mixed-race warriors around him also He drew his sword and slashed at him!

A series of explosions of gold and iron strikes sounded, and the strengthening time of the war frenzy had not yet passed. Clivell drew his sword to block Soretto's war hammer at the last moment, and then counterhanded several mixed-race warriors who rushed forward. fly out.But before he could fight back further, a cunning and fierce saber light struck from the side, and Turak's Kaidan long knife collided with the long sword in his hand, making his palm slightly numb.

During the stalemate, Soretto rushed forward brazenly with a warhammer in his hand, and the instantaneous burst of momentum from his huge body knocked Clivell into the air, and his back hit the rock wall not far away.He seized the opportunity to jump up, and the head-sized warhammer slammed down in the air. Clivell swung his sword to block it, and was immediately smashed to one knee.
"Quick, I won't be able to hold him down anytime soon!" During the wrestling, Soretto blushed and shouted loudly.

At this moment, a black shadow quickly passed by his side, and the sharp blade suddenly pierced Clivell's heart!

The noon sun was mild, but Clivell, who was facing the long knife, felt a chill that penetrated into the marrow of his bones. A look of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he closed them silently when death approached.

Zheng——

There was a metallic buzzing sound accompanied by a strange rubbing sound, and Turak's once blurred figure came to a stop as if he had hit an iron wall.A young man with gray hair and red eyes appeared out of nowhere in the open space between the three of them. He just stretched out a palm casually, and easily grasped the invincible blade!
Fine gray-white scales grew out of his palm, and the Kaidan long knife made of cold iron was squeezed into a mass of twisted iron sheets. Turak and Soretto opened their mouths to speak, but at the same time felt a huge coercion It descended with a bang, as if a big hand tightly grasped their hearts, and forced their bodies to tremble and crawl on the ground as if obeying animal instincts!

"You, yes" Turak struggled to squeeze out two words, his head was supported by his tense neck, and he barely turned his head. From the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of two membranous wings full of wildness suddenly opening behind the boy, and he grabbed Clare. Weier's shoulders, the two rose up together in the sudden storm!

In the Sunset Pass, countless coalition soldiers were immersed in the frenzy of killing and plundering one second, but when they saw the black shadow rising into the sky the next second, they fell into endless panic and hesitation at the same time!

In the chaos, another terrifying figure covering the sky and the sun came from the direction of Taniguchi.

In the endless years that the border land has experienced and will face, there is only one kind of creatures like this that are both majestic and elegant, ferocious and gorgeous at the same time-they were once the beacon of civilization and the embodiment of power.

"dragon--"

In the overwhelming fire of destruction, someone shouted frantically.
