7 KINGDOMS: conquest
185. night attack 3

throughout the night the church troops kept retreating through the dark forest.With Aero's help, they could more freely retreat.

Licius continued to follow from the shadow of the dark tree.

he laughed when he saw the church run away like a little cat.

"hahahaha, run! keep running! and I'll keep chasing you!" mumbling Licius.

Licius drew a sizable black arrow, looking at the gigantic dragon that continued to spurt a strong wind at his army.

"really, a big troublesome lizard." murmured Licius.

he began to draw his bow and aim at the dragon, the vampire race vision is good in dark conditions.

after a long wait, Licius released his bow.A large, sharp black arrow shot towards Aero, speeding away quickly.

"our family's black arrows will definitely hurt you!" mumbling Licius.

he smiled and looked sharply at the gigantic dragon that was still above the sky.The large, wide-spread wings were now the target of the black arrow of licius.

"kumoooo!!!"

Aero roared loudly, trying to stop the black arrow with his strength.

a strong whirlwind shot towards the black arrow, circling it tightly.

"a futile effort." murmured Licius.

shuu...

the black arrow shot through the whirlwind, ripping apart Aero's massive wings and injuring his wing bones.

"goraooo!!"

Aero let out a loud scream as he slowly fell to the ground.His body began to shrink back, showing serious injuries to his wings.

in the carriage, Angel looked with wide eyes.no one did not hear the loud bang.

"Aero!" scream Angel.

the remaining 3 angels were still fighting, yet they were only fighting around the horse carriage.

whenever an enemy approached they would slash at him. The mysterious archer figure had not yet been found.

everyone was wondering what kind of figure the archer was? why so strong?

the captain and the paladins did not dare to be careless in the least.This time, the enemies they faced became even more dangerous.

'save aero!' angel said through his mind.

2 Angels immediately shot towards Aero falling, seeing the giant crater Aero fell.

in the middle of the crater, there is only a small dragon curled up in the middle of the crater. It looks like the wings are injured quite badly.

one of the angels approached and raised Aero, while the other protected his companion.

as they tried to return, an arrow shot back.The angel deflected the arrow.

however there were several other arrows coming, and one of the arrows pierced his face.

the remaining angel immediately flapped his wings and darted away to the horse carriage.

Angel again vomited blood, seen blood dripping in the corner of his mouth. His internal wound was getting worse than before.

he was in so much pain at this moment, his entire internal organs were felt in the sayat.

Aero was then carried into the horse carriage, they increased their retreating speed.

after some time, the terrain finally changed.The forest now changed into a vast meadow, with stars adorning the dark sky.

of the 20 paladins, only 11 were left, with 2 priests and about 70 soldiers.

Licius stopped following, he saw many torches burning in the distance.He looked at the torch with caution.

"is there anyone else in this place?" mumbling Licius.

the attackers continued to chase, because on fairly flat terrain, the horse carriage was able to move quickly.

a group of people came to them, after being close enough to see many warriors riding horses.

"who are you?" said a soldier.

his appearance looks more assertive and authoritative than the other soldiers around him.

"church forces?" said the soldier.

he looked at the church troops who were still fighting, most of them had been injured and were seen in poor condition.

"help them!" shouted the soldier.

all the soldiers nodded, they darted towards the attackers and swung their swords.

there were about 50 of them, but since all the soldiers were riding horses, they were able to face an army that numbered 2 times.

"call another patrol team and ask for help" said the soldier.

the remaining 3 soldiers nodded and went to look for the other patrol team.The one who gave the order was one of Truques master's trusted subordinates.

the captain joined in and slashed at the attackers with one swing, two attackers collapsing easily.

"kill as many as you can!" shouted the captain.

Licius stopped and stared intently at the captain, the arrow pointing straight at the captain.

shua...

the black arrow shot extremely quickly towards the captain. sensing the approaching danger, the captain raised his sword.

the trang!

the black arrow clang, making his sword crack and split into two.

sresh...

the left shoulder was successfully injured by the black arrow, although there was armor protecting it, but the armor managed to injure it.

"who's that?" muttered the captain.

he became more alert, looking towards the dark forest.he felt a great threat from the direction of the forest.

"strong archery." muttered the captain.

on the other hand, Licius became doubtful.he did not pull his bow back and save the last arrow.

"a skilled pedagogue user?" mumbling Licius.

he noticed that the robes were behind the captain's armour, the red robes and the flag they were carrying.

"the red bulls? truques troops? goddamnit!" decak Licius's.

he immediately left without hesitation, dealing with Truques at this time was extremely dangerous for him.

"that crazy man is alive!" mumbling Licius.

the church troops continued to fight, with help from Truques' forces they managed to suppress the attackers.

from a distance, red light from the torch of the yahg torch was lit. Reinforcements had arrived, and the fighting spirit of the troops had increased.

"attack!" shouted a commander.

about 50 other horsemen came and began to cut down the attackers, they were armed with spears with blades that were quite long like swords.

swing swings...

the battle ended quickly, the two commanders saluted each other upon meeting.

quite a number of the attackers escaped, but most of them had been eliminated.

"Yonas, you have good luck" said the captain.

"what luck? just met with a group of bandits, thanks for the help of Pars" said the captain called Yonas.

"it's just a small matter, especially my troops haven't had a real battle this late." said captain Pars.

the two captains walked up and met the paladins, the captain recalled that the priest said they were the troops the pope sent.

"are you the troops the pope sent?" said captain Yonas.

"yes, the pope sent us" said one of the paladins.

"why did the pope send you?" ask captain Pars.

both were curious.it was rare for the pope to send troops to their remote territory.
