Chapter 72 War
Even if squatting here and waiting for the mission time to run out is the safest way, Tang An will not just wait. He promised the old orc that he would properly place Qingtian and protect Qingtian with his life.

If you do nothing, you are breaking your promise.

What is the difference between a gentleman breaking his promise and a pig or a dog?

Therefore, the question now is not whether to do it, but how to do it.

At this time, Tang An reached out and took out a small bottle from the inner lining pocket of his clothes. This small bottle was only as thick as his index finger. It was dark red and filled with viscous liquid.

The guard searched the body just now, but did not notice the small bottle lined.

"Tang An, what is this?" Yang Baoguang noticed, stepped forward to look, and immediately reflected: "This can't be that..."

Tang An nodded, he knew what Yang Baoguang was talking about.

"Do you plan to use this thing?" Yang Baoguang asked again.

Tang An nodded again. This time, Tang An didn't say any more.

When touching the small bottle, a prompt appeared, and Tang An had seen this prompt many times.

"Vivian's blood is corrosive, poisonous, and plague-infectious..."

It didn't take long for Tang An and Yang Baoguang to be taken out by the guards. At this time, there were several "prisoners" like them who were taken out with them. Their hands were all shackled. Fortunately, there were no prisoners on their feet. The shackles are added, so walking is not affected.

There are more than a dozen similar prisoners.

Outside, the soldiers summoned before were all wearing armor, holding shields and one-handed swords. Here, a dozen prisoners were driven by guards to a large wooden box.

This wooden box is full of long swords.

These long swords are all two-handed, and the workmanship is rough, but they have obviously been polished, and they look extremely sharp at the moment.

The guards were shouting, and the other prisoners reluctantly went up to get their weapons.

Tang An and Yang Baoguang looked at each other, and each took a long sword.

The current situation is a bit weird, they actually distribute weapons to the prisoners, aren't they afraid of rebellion?

Thinking about it, Tang An looked around, trying to find Sunny, but he didn't see it, nor did he find the peasant woman who took care of Sunny.

This made Tang An feel terrible.

He definitely didn't want any accidents to happen on a sunny day.

But now he was a little helpless. A group of knights came over there. They were all wearing bright armor, and they were all noble and heroic. The leader was the cavalry leader he had met before.

Tang An remembered the other party's haughty look very clearly.

This man stood on a rock and spoke loudly, which seemed to be a mobilization. Unfortunately, Tang An couldn't understand a sentence. Although he couldn't understand, Tang An could observe.

Sometimes, you don't have to tell things to know what's going on. Through observation, you can find the same answer from various clues and clues.

Just like now.

Tang An's insightful eyes scanned it and he could confirm that he was about to go on an expedition. He was carrying weapons, armor, and murderous intent. He couldn't possibly be going on a sightseeing tour.

is war.

At least what they are facing immediately is a fight.

It's a pity that neither Tang An nor Yang Baoguang knew who they were going to fight with.

In the current situation, we can only take one step at a time.

After the knight captain finished his speech, he started to set off.Holding their swords, Tang An and Yang Baoguang walked forward together with the other prisoners, followed by dozens of foot soldiers from the sign, including the original guards, and at the end, a group of cavalry.

"It seems that we are being treated as cannon fodder." Tang An muttered, although he knew it, but now he has nothing to do.

"Tang An, no matter what happens for a while, you have to follow me closely. With me around, I won't let you get hurt." Yang Baoguang is tall and strong, and whispered at this moment.

Tang An nodded.

This is nothing to be ashamed of.

Yang Baoguang is good at close combat, which is inseparable from the opponent's height and strength. Tang An is naturally incomparable. For example, the power and speed of Tang An's swing and Yang Baoguang's swing of the long sword in his hand are of course different.

Walking along this way, being driven by the surrounding guards, they could only move forward quickly. For half a day, Tang An and Yang Baoguang didn't know where they were. They only knew that they were surrounded by a forest.

Moving forward, you can already hear shouts of killing.

A dozen or so prisoners held their sword hilts tightly, and after walking for a while, they could already see a catapult appearing in front of them, throwing a boulder weighing at least a hundred catties.

The huge and long rocker swung down, driving and throwing a huge boulder, and then smashed down a house a hundred meters away, and just in front, humans were fighting fiercely with orcs.

The guard drew his sword and shouted. The other prisoners hesitated, but still moved forward. Tang An guessed that what the guard shouted just now was probably 'charge' or 'kill' or something.

Sometimes, you don't want to fight, but if you are involved, in order to protect yourself, you can only fight.

Tang An and Yang Baoguang are like this now.

After joining the battle group, a green-skinned orc rushed over from the front. The opponent had a rough machete in his hand. The blade was three feet long. The blade was stained with blood. The orc was wearing a hat with a sharp horn, like It rushed over like a bull, first knocking a guard on the road to the ground, and then slashed with a knife. The prisoner at the front didn't have time to react, and was chopped into two pieces with a knife.

How much strength does it take to cut a person with a single blow?
At the back of the battlefield, Cavalier Captain Eric saluted a senior officer in front: "Sir, this time I brought hundreds of soldiers, hoping to help the battle here."

The senior officer wore decent armor, and his beard and hair were even more meticulous. When he saw Eric, he smiled slightly: "Eric, son of Wander, you did a good job, but this can no longer change the fate of this war. It worked out."

The knight Eric was stunned, with a kind of pride: "Sir, I am willing to go to the battlefield in person to face those ugly and vulgar orcs and defend the honor of our alliance."

"No, why bother to be too demanding in a war that is destined to fail? Moreover, once you are injured or disabled, you know that those nobles and hostile forces will immediately jump out and kick you out of the circle of power. Sometimes, not any You have to fight for honor." After the senior officer finished speaking, he turned to a female officer next to him and said, "Give me the order and prepare to evacuate."

The beautiful female officer nodded and went down to deliver the order.

"You can give this place to those orcs, but don't think they are taking advantage." When the senior officer spoke, he saw that Eric seemed to be dissatisfied, and knew that the other party was still unwilling to give up.

That's right, young people are eager to win, and they pay more attention to victory or defeat.After thinking for a while, he said again: "Eric, let me tell you something, have you heard of the great pharmacist Faraniel?"

Eric was taken aback.

"That damn undead bastard?"

Although he was cursing, it was obvious that there was still a trace of fear in the eyes of the young knight captain.Not to mention him, even the senior officer he respected was the same, with a look of fear on his face.
