Chapter 305: Desert Night Attack
The speed of construction of the parapet wall far exceeded the expectations of Tian Xian, and it seemed that the words before Tian Xian made everyone feel very nervous, and the progress of the work was correspondingly much faster, and by the time night fell on another day, the rough but solid two parapet walls had risen from the ground, and a small city was built in the gap between the two empires.
"Are we going to wait here until someone in the desert comes to attack us?"
When the sun rose in the east and the sky looked at the endless desert, the evil eye said very dissatisfied.
Tian Xian felt the rapidly scorching temperature in the air, and replied, "Those people won't let us leave, especially if we know that someone might attack." ”
"Joke! Can those weak guys stop us?" snorted Evil Eye.
"They really can't stop us, but since I didn't disperse them without asking at that time, and let them fend for themselves, what is the point of leaving at this time?"
"Are you going to go head-to-head with those guys in the desert for the sake of these damn weak humans?"
Tian Xian smiled, "Of course not, that won't lead to any good results, I want to talk to them, but unfortunately they haven't shown up." ”
"Talk?" the evil eye was silent for a while, and then suddenly laughed heartily, "Boy, are you paying attention to that treasure in the desert?
"I had no idea what was in the desert. ”
"But I know!" said the Evil Eye at once, "the breath in the air is definitely not natural. There must be some very powerful treasure somewhere in the desert! It can make the whole desert exude this kind of aura, the power of this treasure is immeasurable! It must be something left by the gods before, as long as you get it!"
Tian Xian interrupted the evil eye, "As long as I get it, your power will quickly recover, and then burn us all to ashes, right?"
"Uh......"
The evil eye suddenly stopped moving, but immediately shouted in annoyance: "You stupid human! I'm teaching you how to survive! You have provoked so many powerful enemies now, if you don't quickly increase your strength, you will only die without a place to be buried! I am not sure what that thing is, and naturally I don't know if it will increase my strength. But you as the primary owner. There will definitely be more benefits to be gained, so ......"
"Let's talk about it......" Tian Xian replied without saltiness, but he knew very well in his heart that the reason why the evil eye was so enthusiastic wanted to enter the desert to hunt for treasure. Then even if it doesn't know what the hell is in the desert. But it is estimated that you can guess eight or nine or ten. This thing, apparently, is great for it, but for its own good. That might be the case.
"Hmph, whatever you want! stupid humans can't communicate!" Evil Eye screamed, and immediately stopped moving.
Tianxian shook his head helplessly, and called softly: "Triangle, are you awake?"
In the sleeves of Tianxian, a little starlight suddenly poked out, it was the small gem of the triangle that connected the arc of light, during this time the triangle and Gollum did not show up, fortunately, their shapes are special, they can hide anywhere, and they are not easy to be found, during this time they are hiding in the sleeves of Tianxian most of the time
"Yes master, I have been waiting for your orders. Triangle said.
"This place is probably finished, what do you think?"
The triangular jewel turned behind Tianxian and seemed to glance over there, "My master, do you want to listen to the truth?"
"It's okay to tell lies. ”
"Then I think this place is already very safe, with such a defensive wall, I'm afraid that even a million army will not be able to attack it, although those desert dwellers are used to fighting in the desert, but in the face of such a defense, there must be no way!" said Triangle, waving his gem.
Tianxian nodded, sighing slightly in his heart.
Although this defensive wall is indeed very strong, it is still far from the real wall, and the most important thing is that there are only two or three thousand thin villagers here, they are not strong soldiers, if someone really attacks this place, how can they stand it. Not to mention that if it was attacked by those Shalits who were familiar with the desert terrain, it was estimated that at that time it would only be a one-sided breach.
"I want you to do me a favor. ”
"My master, I obey your orders completely, and your orders are my mission. ”
"Then let's scatter the spirit demon array around here. ”
Triangle was obviously a little puzzled, "My master, do you mean to set up a Scattered Spirit Demon Array in this barren place?"
"Yes, what's the problem?"
"Your orders must be carried out, of course, but why is that? It seems to me that it is completely unnecessary!"
"Not necessary?"
Triangle explained, "These people have nothing to do with the master, the master brought them here, and they have already got the news they want, and the future has nothing to do with the master, and even if the Scattered Spirit Demon Array is arranged here, it is impossible to protect their safety, this is a meaningless action!"
Tian Xian was puzzled, "What do you mean when you say that the Scattered Spirit Demon Array can't protect them?"
"The maintenance of the Scattered Spirit Demon Array requires great strength, if it is the master of Norma, it is natural to leave after arranging, but if it is a humble me, then it must be supported in the array, but my master, you will not leave me here to support the Scattered Spirit Demon Array, and then leave by yourself, right?"
"That's right...... Tian Xian couldn't help frowning, "but there is no other way now, in case those Shalits don't welcome us, then this is the only means of defense, let's do it first, it will be a while to survive for a while, if there is a way, there will be later." ”
"Humans are really so optimistic, okay my master, I'll go and set it up immediately, but I don't know if you can provide me with a body that allows me to move freely, I can't go out like this. ”
Tian Xian thought for a while, "It seems that Ali will have to sacrifice it." ”
The next day, everyone noticed a very strange phenomenon. Arion, who had always been very enthusiastic about the construction of the parapet and went around to reassure those who were disturbed, suddenly became interested in the world beyond the wall, and he ran back and forth outside with Tianxian, and tinkered with the ground for half a day, a whole day.
"My master, it has probably been arranged now, as long as I am here, I can launch the Scattering Spirit Circle at any time, with the average strength of the human beings in the Human Continent, no one can walk in from the outside. ”
Gollum is now in Arion's form. The triangle stayed in its clothes.
Tianxian finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although this is not a long-term solution, it is now finally an extra insurance.
"Someone in the desert is coming!"
Suddenly, Tu Ge's roar came from not far away, and he had been on guard for the past two days. Tall and eye-sighted, Tu Ge is also considered the best sentry.
Tian Xian quickly climbed the parapet. Look out into the desert. His eyes shrank suddenly.
It's finally here!
It was already dusk, and the vast desert was brightly lit by the blood-colored sunset, and it looked extremely bleak and magnificent. And in this picturesque background, a group of people are walking slowly from the wind and sand on foot.
The news spread quickly, and everyone crowded into the parapet to look out, and many even picked up weapons that had just been made from felled trees, and their faces were full of nervousness.
Gradually, the people came closer.
Tian Xian's expression gradually became stern, because these people looked like real warriors who had been tempered a lot.
The number of people in this group was very small, probably only about a hundred.
All of them wore sand-proof cloaks, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, and they carried strangely shaped scimitars around their waists.
Although they walked on foot, they were extremely fast, not at all like ordinary people walking in the desert, and even faster than normal people walking on flat ground.
As if blown by the wind and sand of the desert, these people quickly came to a short distance and stopped at the edge of the border of the Shalit Empire, only a dozen meters away from the parapet where Tianxian was.
The leader walked out, did not pay attention to the temporary station in front of him, but looked at a pile of shallow sand on the ground, which was the sand sculpture on the border before, and after a few days, only a shallow layer of yellow sand was left here.
The man looked up, two sharp eyes coming out from under his cloak, "You guys...... Why destroy our sand sculptures, those who invade the desert will be executed, have the people of the Longyuan Empire forgotten the lessons of the previous war?"
This is a very young voice.
"Who are you?" Tian Xian asked directly,
"That's for me to ask!" the man unbuttoned and tossed aside his sand-proof cloak, revealing his strong, bronzed body.
The man was shirtless, with only a handful of hair on the back of his head, but he was tied into long braids, and a young face looked slightly vicissitudes because of his bronze complexion, and his eyes were full of sparkling cold light.
"The place where you are is about to become the territory of the Shalit Empire, I think you should know this, but you actually build a defensive castle here, is it possible that the Longyuan Empire wants to provoke us?"
Tian Xian immediately smiled and said, "No, no, please don't get me wrong, we are not from the Longyuan Empire, let alone here to provoke you." ”
"Not from the Longyuan Empire?"
This person was stunned, and couldn't help but shout angrily: "You people from the Longyuan Empire have black hair and black eyes!
"No, no, no, we are really not from the Longyuan Empire, and the black-haired and black-eyed races on this continent are not only from the Longyuan Empire, first of all, they are from Moyun Mountain, and I am the same as the black-haired and black-eyed, of course, some of the people here used to be from the Longyuan Empire, but now they ...... They're not anymore!"
"Who are you?"
Tian Xian smiled, "Who are you?"
"Major General of the Southern Army of the Shalit Empire, Dole!"
"Okay Duoduo, listen to me......"
The man's eyes were cold, "Look for death!"
As he spoke, he had already pulled out his scimitar and threw it out, and the scimitar cut an arc in mid-air, slashing at Tianxian's neck at a strange angle.
Ripples and sparkles crept in......
"Click!"
The scimitar was split in half with a crisp sound, and Xiang jumped onto the parapet wall, and a murderous aura surged from his body.
"Wait!wait!"
"Whew!"
Hundreds of veterans under the parapet wall all showed their scimitars. stared at the incense that had not moved by the knife.
"Even if Xiao Sheng is dead, he will have the human head to get me back from that Dole!" Xiang slowly gripped the flash wave knife.
Tian Xian unceremoniously slashed a hand knife on her ankle, Xiang screamed, and immediately planted it from the parapet, Tian Xian reached out to catch it, and then threw it to the side, "Now is not the time to be desperate." ”
"Yes...... But they ...... "Xiang turned over and stood firm, and couldn't help but be a little excited."
Tianxian shook his head, "Xiang, this is not the highland. Some things don't need to be solved with weapons. ”
Xiang couldn't help but be stunned.
Tianxian has poked his head out again. smiled and said to Dole under the parapet: "I'm sorry my friend is a little excited, but we have no ill intentions, my name is Tianxian, not a big person." I'm not from the Longyuan Empire either. I'm just taking these poor people who have no place to stay here for a while. As soon as we have a suitable place to live, we will move out immediately!"
"Tian Xian?" Doler couldn't help but look Tian Xian up and down, "Is that the Tian Xian who got the evil eye?"
"Uh...... Could it be that the news would reach the desert as well?"
"He who inherits the will of the evil gods. Naturally, we'll be on the lookout!"
Tian Xian sighed, "I'm not inheriting the will of the evil god, hey, don't go, I haven't finished yet!"
While Tian Xian was talking, Doler had already led his people to quickly retreat towards the desert, and Tian Xian couldn't help jumping on the parapet wall and shouting, "Hey! What are you doing! We haven't finished talking yet!"
"We have already got the news we wanted, I didn't expect that this time the Longyuan Empire would actually use an evil person like you, it seems that the glorious empire of the past is falling, we will not let you desecrate our sacred desert, now please cherish every breath you take, because soon! The people of the desert will raze this place to the ground!"
"Hey!!Stop me!!I haven't finished my words yet!What kind of evil god's will?I have nothing to do with the Longyuan Empire at all! You stop me!" Tianxian was so annoyed that he couldn't help jumping off the moat to chase after him.
But Dole had already led his men back into the desert quickly, and in the vast yellow sand, they walked as fast as they could, but they could not catch up with them at all.
Not long after, Dole and his men were lost to the desert sand.
Tian Xian stood in the still hot sand, his eyes widened angrily, "You bastards, idiots, are your skulls empty? Before I could speak, did you decide to attack us on your own......?"
"Alright, you stinky little imp stop yelling. ”
Tianxian looked back and saw that Gu Li and the others had already come behind him.
"These ...... These bastards ran away as soon as they heard my name!"
Gu Li smiled, "It seems that you are really notorious, but there is nothing to be frustrated about, they are obviously not here for peace talks, but as the vanguard of reconnaissance, as long as they are sure of our situation, they will retreat, and they will not negotiate at all." ”
"What!?" Tian Xian looked at Gu Li in amazement, "How do you know?"
"I've heard some rumors about the Shalit Empire. Gu Li took out half of the blade, it was the half of the blade that Xiang had cut just now, "The warriors of the Shalit Empire are accustomed to using a strange scimitar, because it is difficult to move in the desert, it is difficult to use ordinary weapons, and this scimitar is moderately weight, and the trajectory of rotation in mid-air is also difficult to figure out, on a sunny day, you can only see a piece of light in mid-air, and you can't determine where the blade is." ”
"This is this scimitar?"
"No, that's what Shalit warriors use, and this kind of ......" Guli flipped the blade over and showed it in front of Tianxian's eyes, the blade was not parallel to the blade, but slightly cocked.
"This is a scimitar that will only be used by the elites of the hunting legion of the Shalit Empire, the blade is slightly cocked to the side, and the blade has a certain arc, and the trajectory is more difficult to judge when flying, and the wound caused by this blade is not an ordinary knife wound, it will directly cut off the flesh, it is an extremely fierce weapon, of course, it is also extremely difficult to master, in the Shalit Empire, only the elite of the hunting legion uses this thing!"
Tianxian's eyelids jumped, "You mean, they're actually here to kill people?"
"Not bad!" Throwing away half of her scimitar, Gul narrowed her eyes at the desert, "If my guess is correct, in fact, Shalit's army is already in a place where they don't want to, maybe just behind the dunes in front, and tonight should be the time for them to attack." ”
"Today!" Tian Xian looked at the sun that had fallen, "and will attack in the evening?"
"Quite possibly!"
"Won't these guys even negotiate?"
"Historically, the Shalit Empire and foreign people negotiated with their scimitars. ”
Tian Xian picked up the scimitar and looked at it, the blade was slightly cocked, this kind of center of gravity is no longer on the scimitar on the knife body is really difficult to use, and the inclined blade and the parallel flying blade will form a twisting force, if you hit someone......
This knife is so ruthless!
"Since they're coming, let them come! If you don't want to talk to me, let's see who has the harder fist!"
A flame jumped out of Tianxian's five fingers, and the blazing palm grasped the blade, and the blade that flashed with cold light made a squeaky sound, which was instantly burned and pinched......
"Tell everyone not to go out from now on, and prepare your tools immediately!
......
When night falls, the night in the desert is usually extremely cold, even on the edge of the desert, it is surprisingly cold, but here, even the night is just as hot and annoying, as the evil eye says, the heat of the desert is definitely not naturally formed.
Everyone hid behind the parapet wall, staring intently at the depths of the desert, and in the moonlight, the desert was clear except for the white sand and the dark shadows.
"It's coming!" Guli said softly.
In the desert, shadows are moving in droves...... (To be continued......)
