Volume 2: Empire Chapter 92: Siege of Jingting
Jingting was heavily surrounded by the army of Sun City. The tall orc warriors stood in the front row, confronting the Blood Oath Barbarians who rushed out of the courtyard.
Erguya stood in front of the Bloodsworn Barbarians, brandishing a battle axe and angrily yelling at the army in front of him: "Urd, let the traitor Urd come out to see me. This damn coward has completely lost the glory of Urd's ancestors and is willing to be a running dog of the Augustine family.
You are a hypocrite and a scoundrel! You are unworthy of being a member of the Brotherhood of the Blade.
Urd, if you still have the guts, come out!"
The soldiers of Sun City spread out to both sides, and Urd and Luke, wearing armor, walked out.
When Erguya saw Luke, he gripped his battle axe and wanted to rush over.
He knew the reason for Urd's rebellion, and he must have been bewitched by the meteorite.
In order to save the situation, Erguya made a final attempt. He pointed his battle axe at Luke and shouted to Urd: "Urd... I knew you must have been deceived by the meteorite.
Meteorite is a spy trained by the Secret Service, and he is best at lying, deceiving and bewitching. In Raging Waves, he used trickery to steal the entire city; in Saint Len, Augustine fell for his trickery and launched a war against Tedega Hills.
Urd, no matter what benefits the meteorite promises you, don't let greed cloud your judgment. You are one with us, and if you betray us, you will end up like us.
Kill Meteor, kill Agatha, and you are still my good brother!"
Under heavy defense, Urd drew his sword and replied to Erguya, "Erguya, put away all your false accusations against Viscount Meteorite. Viscount Meteorite and Her Royal Highness the Princess are envoys sent by the Empire to the Western Territory. I am the lord guarding the Western Territory for the Empire, and you... are all rebels against the Empire.
You were ordered by the rebel leader Celtic to sneak into Sun City with the intention of assassinating Her Royal Highness the Princess and Governor Meteor, and taking the opportunity to stir up conflicts between the Western Territory nobles and the Empire.
Fortunately, Governor Meteor discovered your misconduct in time and informed me that the rebels were hiding in the quiet courtyard of Sunny Manor. Otherwise... I would definitely be accused of betraying the empire and killing the empire's eldest princess because of you!
Stop trying to sow discord between me and the Governor of Meteorite. The friendship between Sun City and Raging Wave City is unbreakable!"
After hearing what Count Urd said, Erguya was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
This is simply lying with open eyes.
Without you leading us in, how could we enter the Sunny Manor? We just want to sneak in... can a barbarian sneak in?
That's not what you said during the meeting this morning.
Erguya didn't know how the meteorite had brainwashed Count Urd, but now Urd was determined to defect to the empire, and he had no choice but to be loyal to the Duke of Celtic until his death.
"Uld, I'm going to kill you!"
Erguya threw his battle axe at Urd, but a sword slashed across the air and knocked the battle axe back. Erguya caught the flying battle axe and saw the orc leader Andre.
Andre held the knife in both hands and stood in front of Count Urd. He stared at Erguya vigilantly and asked behind him: "Master, Governor Meteorite, should we attack now?"
Meteorite took out his pocket watch and checked the time.
It was exactly three o'clock in the morning.
"All personnel should be in place, we can attack!"
Earl Urd raised his sword high and shouted: "Long live the great Golden Shield Empire, long live the great Emperor of the Empire... Warriors of the Sun Oasis, follow me to wipe out the rebels!"
All the soldiers of Sun City raised their torches and weapons high and roared loudly: "Long live the great Golden Shield Empire, long live the great Emperor of the Empire!"
At the same time, large pieces of magical fireworks rose from all over the Riyue Manor. The fireworks rose into the sky, and then exploded into colorful fireworks, suppressing the slogans shouted by the soldiers and boosting their morale.
The soldiers of Sun City launched an attack on the barbarians inside and outside Jingting. A war machine leaped high from the back, passed through the heads of the soldiers, and smashed down towards Erguya like a meteorite falling from the sky.
That was the boiling of war machinery. He held the sword in both hands and raised it above his head. Sandpaper was sitting in the cockpit. Before the sword fell, more than ten screws had already flown in front of Erguya. Behind the boiling, the figure of Hongshun flashed out like a ghost, and the red hair left a residual shadow in the air, and the person had already landed beside Erguya.
The rapier stabbed quickly, piercing the knee of a barbarian warrior who was trying to support Erguya, and then all the arrows in the crossbow were fired at the chest of the barbarian warrior who was bending over.
Erguya roared at the boiling water falling from the sky, and the strong airflow rushed upward, dispersing the screwdriver shot by the sandpaper. Then he swung and blocked the boiling water's powerful knife.
The sound waves generated by the collision, along with the diffuse airflow, knocked down nearby fighters from both sides.
With the boiling power at full blast, he held the sword tightly in both hands and pressed Erguya down. He raised the energy cannon on his back to his shoulder and fired at Erguya's head.
Erguya turned his head to avoid the cannon beam, and his burned skin and hair were smoking and emitting a burnt smell.
A dragon roared throughout the audience, and Taotie emerged from the back of Luke's hand, growing larger in the wind. It spread its wings and flew into the air, the gold on the edge of its red dragon scales became wider, and its demeanor became more majestic.
The falling Taotie knocked away a barbarian next to Erguya, and then spewed out dragon breath to shoot at all the barbarians who tried to approach to rescue Erguya.
The Red Falcon's swordsmanship is swift and his body is agile; the Fast Legs holds two daggers and quietly joins the battle.
The Sun Soldiers, who were killed by the Blood Oath Barbarians as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, were isolated from the battle circle that besieged Erguya. Even though they charged fearlessly, they were unable to provide support for their leader.
In the battle circle, Fei Teng and Er Gu Ya were slashing at each other with force. Sandpaper in the cockpit, facing Er Gu Ya who was stronger than Fei Teng, focused on providing shared perception for Fei Teng, and harassed Er Gu Ya with flying weapons when he had the spare power.
Outside the battle circle, Earl Urd, in order to redeem himself, did not care about the loss of his own soldiers and ordered the army to attack with all his strength. The barbarians, who were outnumbered, could not withstand the attack of the massive Sun soldiers even with the help of secret arts. The Sun soldiers broke through the barbarians' defense line and rushed into the courtyard. The battle unfolded in and outside the Jingyuan.
The blood of the dead warriors gathered together and flowed into the central lake, dyeing large areas of the lake water red.
Magical fireworks kept blooming in the sky, and the sound of explosions filled the sky, making the blood-colored lake and the frozen lake surface brighter.
Luke did not risk joining the battle. Under the protection of Shelley, Pisco and the Imperial spies, he stood with Count Urd, who was also under strict protection .
Luke peeled a candy, put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly, then said to Earl Urd: "After this battle tonight, the Urd family will be the leader of the nobles in the West.
Your Majesty can finally put aside your worries about the Western Territory.
But for this credit...who do you think is more suitable to give it to, Lord Earl?"
to whom?
Count Urd found this a very difficult problem.
