Chapter 259 Open
More than 700 soldiers of more than 1,500 people were reluctant to go back. Because they were all slaves, the result of the defeat was something they could not afford, and it might be treated even more cruelly. The remaining eight hundred people were regular troops and had to go back, otherwise their families would be treated cruelly.
Among the more than 700 people who stayed, more than 500 were slightly injured, while the rest were unscathed. Two of them were Matthias and Eddie. They stayed voluntarily, and they were slaves when they returned, and they might be treated even more cruelly. They might even be killed for demonstration.
The battle came to an end. Jia Huan watched the more than 800 people support each other, and was in a state of dismay. They had lost their fighting spirit and could not become elite soldiers anymore. They were like a plague now, spreading their fear of the rebel army, which would only shake the morale of the king's army. They were completely finished and could no longer take up weapons.
"It's like an online virus?" Emilia, who was standing next to Jia Huan, said to him with a smile, "I know what you think. If these people spread the feared virus, it will be the deadliest killing move. Do you know military and political a lot?"
"This is instinct!" Jia Huan smiled slightly, and said nothing. It was inevitable that people would die in war. But when he saw the devastated scene, he felt a little moved.
This battle is over, and the next battle may come more violently. Through this road, you can directly lead to the royal city. The castle of the royal city is very strong, and there is a huge canyon separated by a huge bridge, behind which there is another huge bridge. This huge stone bridge spans the canyon, and below is a deep abyss.
It is said that this bridge was built by a god from the Warner tribe for the Kingdom of Giants. The construction of this bridge used his divine power. Near the castle, there is a huge suspension bridge, which can be lifted up by machinery, completely separating the enemy from the castle. In this way, no matter how huge the enemy is, it is impossible to cross the bridge to attack the castle.
From this point of view, this is a very strong fortress. Even if the eagle wants to fly over, it will be difficult. So when Mt led his men here, he stood opposite the canyon, looking at the distant castle over there, sighing. Because he heard the warning bell from the other side of the castle.
As the bell rang, the suspension bridge was slowly hung up. The suspension bridge, which was more than 50 meters long, became an insurmountable barrier on both sides. Mu had to ride a horse and watch from a distance. Behind him were soldiers holding swords, guns, bows and arrows. They were preparing to capture this place they usually looked very afraid of. Now there are more than 4,000 soldiers, arranged neatly, and they were all waiting quietly for the order.
Since defeating the king's five thousand soldiers, the reputation of Mude's team has increased greatly. Craftsmen and slaves from many places have escaped and defected to him. His power has expanded rapidly. Then, after Jia Huan came up with ideas to reorganize the army, the team has a certain combat power, and this is the final battle against the king.
The king of the giants was standing in front of the top watchtower of the castle, looking at the army on the canyon. Although the people there seemed to be very small and almost negligible, he was worried and angrily looking at the other end of the canyon. He couldn't understand why his powerful army would be defeated.
"Your Majesty, from these two battles, we can infer that there must be God helping those untouchables." A wizard in a robe said to the gloomy king. "We can infer from the rewards of the defeated soldiers. Should we also use our strength and ask the Gods of the Warner Tribe to help us?"
After hearing this, the king immediately looked at the wizard-like man and said, "Are you talking about... using the blood sacrifice?"
"Yes, use the blood sacrifice and open the rainbow bridge to allow the gods of the Warner tribe to appear on our land. Judging from their attitude towards the king, they support your rule over the giant country." The wizard said respectfully, "There are only three thousand soldiers who can fight in the city now, and these three thousand people are still scared. They are frightened by the rumors of the defeated soldiers. You cannot rely on these people to help you block the rebels, Your Majesty the King!"
The king pondered for a while, then waved his hand and said, "Go and prepare!"
After hearing this, the wizard bowed to the king: "Dear King, you will be proud and grateful for your wise decisions." As he said that, the wizard retreated.
Mde stood at the other end of the bridge, looking at Jia Huan standing on his shoulder and Emilia who had another shoulder, pulling his hair, and said, "What should we do now? This is an insurmountable gap. If we cannot defeat the king in the castle, then we cannot complete the resistance to the king in the actual sense."
Before Jia Huan could speak, at this time, he heard the dull horn sounds in the city. The horn sounds were long and short, five times in a row. Mde's face suddenly changed when he heard these horn sounds. He turned to look at Jia Huan and said, "Oh no, sir, this horn sound... My God, the king actually did this."
"What's wrong?" Jia Huan frowned and asked through Emilia's translation: "Is there something wrong?" Mude's face turned ugly, which must mean that some bad accidents were about to happen.
Mde's eyes became very sharp, and fire was almost spurting out of his eyes. He almost said in a trembling voice: "This is a blood sacrifice. It has not been used for many years. My God, they actually thought of using a blood sacrifice! Forgive me, my god, this is the king's fault!"
"What is a blood sacrifice?" Jia Huan frowned and looked at Mude and said.
"The king will kill five hundred women and children, and then use their blood to open the passage of the Rainbow Bridge, summoning the gods of the Warner tribe to come to this country, for the king to use it. Mde said, "The king did it once before, and he summoned a divine beast of the Warner tribe, a fire-breathing dragon. He killed a beast that plundered our country. Unexpectedly, he actually summoned again this time. Poor the five hundred women and children, damn it--" As he said that, he hammered his chest in annoyance.
Open the Rainbow Bridge with the lives of five hundred women and children. Why is there such a cruel thing to open the Rainbow Bridge? Jia Huan frowned in confusion: "Didn't the Rainbow Bridge open at a certain time?"
"Yes, yes, it can be opened at a certain time. But... the beasts guarding the Rainbow Bridge will also open the Rainbow Bridge after receiving the blood sacrifice." Mde took a deep breath and said, "But as far as I know, our country has only been opened this time. Is there any way to save their lives? My God—"
As Mde said, he suddenly knelt down. Although Jia Huan was standing on his shoulder, he still knelt down on one knee and said to Jia Huan: "My God, please save those innocent lives. They are innocent. Let us kill them, rescue them, and rescue everyone."
Jia Huan was silent for a moment, and Emilia on the other side of her shoulder said, "Only a cruel monarch would do such an inhumane thing. Help them, Mr. Jia. Please!" This woman was also compassionate and had a lot of sympathy. However, this is human nature. No one can remain indifferent in such a large-scale massacre of women and children.
"Let your people prepare!" Jia Huan said, and suddenly looked ahead. The suspension bridge was made of huge steel cables, which looked almost twice the thickness of his entire person. He looked at it, and suddenly his entire person turned into a ray of light and flew forward.
The sound of "collapse--" was like a few sounds of steel wire breaking from the horizon. Then I saw the suspension bridge making a "creaking" sound, which suddenly fell slowly from hanging in the air. Jia Huan's figure suddenly appeared on Mude's shoulder again, and then said, "It's your turn!" As he said that, he flashed, took Emilia quickly left his shoulder, and rushed to the side.
He took Emilia to the hillside, stayed with Garyl and his group, and said, "Stay well here, Anne, follow me, let's go to the castle together. If you see someone trying to kill women and children, don't be ruthless and kill those who commit the crime directly. Can you? Anne-"
"I can!" Annie screamed excitedly. She thought for a long time and wanted to fight with Jia Huan. Now this wish can finally come true. Then she felt a pair of big hands holding her little hands, and then her whole person turned into a ray of light, flashing into the castle without a trace.
"Brothers, it's time to settle the score with the king. Follow me-" Mude waved his sword and pointed to the front, and he took the lead and ran towards the front. Behind him was a group of cavalry, which followed him into the battle. The black soldiers behind him, listening to the swords, guns, spears, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the castle.
With a "bang", the suspension bridge was connected again. Mde rushed over first, and then more people rushed over. As the suspension bridge fell, the king's heart was shaken by the "bang". He shouted loudly: "Send an order immediately, let the wizard kill those people quickly and hold a blood sacrifice. Hurry up, I will summon the appearance of God immediately!" He was almost shouting at the top of his lungs.
Five hundred women and children were soon found, and the soldiers rushed into the homes of every civilian, forcibly taking out the women and children inside. There were crying sounds on the street, and the rough scoldings of the soldiers, and the screams of the men who whipped them, one after another.
The whole street was like hell, unbearable. In the huge square in the castle, all five hundred women and children were detained here in the end and tied up with ropes. Five hundred soldiers acted as temporary executioners and wanted to execute these women and children as soon as possible so that their blood could flow out.
In the square, there is a huge tower, which soars straight into the sky, almost connected to the sky. This is the center of the castle. When blood is poured into the blood trough, the blood will be attracted by an attraction from the sky and enter the sky. Finally, it reaches the Rainbow Bridge, which is where the Warner Gods are located. This tower was built by the Warner Gods.
I don't know what they originally built. But this tower has now become one of the places where they kill wildly and engage in bloody activities. The wizard was dancing strange dances next to the tower, muttering words. Behind the dark women and children, every soldier held a sharp and shiny knife in his hand. He placed the knife on the necks of the women and children. Underneath the neck was a blood groove.
On the periphery are groups of soldiers holding spears and sharp blades, bent their bows and arrows to point at the men trying to crowd, shouting at their relatives in despair. Some people are constantly knocked to the ground by the soldiers, screaming and howling.
An officer riding a fast horse ran over and shouted to the wizard who was muttering: "His Majesty the King has his life, immediately perform a blood sacrifice, open the rainbow bridge, and summon the divine beasts in the heaven. No mistakes are allowed - cut them together!" As the officer said the order, the soldiers behind the women and children were about to take action immediately.
Suddenly, there was a burst of crying in the square. Some women were scared and even peed their pants. "Take a hand" With a slight shout, the soldier's knife began to wipe the necks of the women and children. The cold blade, with a slight force, would cut off the arteries and blood vessels of the neck, and would splash out like spring water.
"Rainbow--" Suddenly someone started shouting loudly.
Immediately afterwards, many people shouted loudly: "The rainbow is coming out - the rainbow is coming out!" While shouting, the rainbow flew over like a colorful light in the sky, and then there was a constant sound of "clang". The soldiers' hands were silent and their fingers fell down.
Then the rainbow suddenly penetrated the chest of the wizard who was lying and disappeared. The wizard opened his mouth wide and looked at the huge blood hole in his chest in surprise. The blood was flowing and dripping in the slot. The blood from the broken palms of the soldiers continued to pour out and drip into the slot.
The blood gathered in the slot suddenly rushed straight into the sky with the tower. The wizard grew up with his mouth, looked at his chest, and then at the blood in the tower that rushed into the sky. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile. Then the light in his eyes began to spread, and eventually became unsightly, and the man fell to the ground.
"Kill them-" With a roar, this sudden change made everyone brave. Their anger finally had a hole in venting. A soldier picked up a knife and wanted to sprint the person who rushed over, but was then smashed by the person beside him with a stone. The rest of the soldiers were panicked and fled to the palace in a hurry.
"Your Majesty the King, look, the tower has changed. The Rainbow Bridge is about to open!" An officer shouted loudly at His Majesty the King and pointed to the tower above.
The king nodded with relief and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a burst of shouts of killing under the city wall. When he was about to ask what was going on, the rebel army that had rushed over from the bridge was approaching the city. The closed city gate was suddenly opened with a "bang", and then the cheers of the rebel army.
There was a flat horse in front, and the castle was in civil strife. At this moment, a lightning flash suddenly came from the sky, as if it was about to split the sky in half, making everyone unable to help but stop.
