Proof of the Sun King

Chapter 377: , ancient race of the rainforest

"Whether it's your appearance or your cultivation, you can't be a commoner, and the golden double-headed eagle... is the symbol and symbol of the empire. You must be the descendant of an imperial aristocrat?" Pilazzo asked cautiously: "Of course... it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, we all understand some things."

"Me? I'm considered a descendant of the great nobles of the empire." Fugan thought about it, and he decided to say half of the words: "Do you know Ryan? Earl Ryan-Malcador?"

"Ah! I know, the hero of the human race who exiled the Great Demon of Nurgle, the Pus Retriever, and killed the Red Duke, who has plagued the Knight Kingdom for hundreds of years." Pilazzo said he knew.

"I'm his brother, my brother." Fulgen said here, shaking his head: "I can only say so much."

"Understood." Pilazzo was certain.

That's right.

Earl Ryan-Macado's reputation in the old world is not unremarkable. There are many speculations about who his biological father is. Although Fulgan's words are still nothing about his biological father. Information about his biological father has not been revealed, but at least Pilazzo ate it. A reassurance, this legion has backup in the old world!

This is very important, whether or not this expedition has a firm footing, they still need the support of the old world.

After dinner, Pilazzo resigned, leaving only Forgan himself. The legion commander picked up a book "Old World National Geographic" and continued.

Candles made of animal fat flicker.

"The rulers are high above the temples, and the commoners work hard to support the army to protect themselves. It's a life that has remained unchanged for thousands of years." The beautiful man looked at "Old World National Geographic" and sighed softly: "Everything has to start from scratch, father. , my legion, my children have fallen into the abyss, ten thousand years have passed, have you saved anything but me, son of the emperor?"

The golden double-headed eagle reflected in the candlelight, leaving Fulgrim a silent answer.

…………

A week later, the entire expeditionary force was ready to go.

The 5,000-strong army was organized into twelve companies by Forgan.

He personally led the first company, which was filled with veterans of hundreds of battles, consisting of great swordsmen and a small number of foot knights.

The second and third companies are the halberdier companies.

The 4th, 5th, and 6th companies were a mix of spearmen and sword and shield soldiers.

The seventh, eighth and ninth companies consist of crossbowmen and archers.

The Tenth Company consisted of musketeers.

The Eleventh Company was artillery, and the Expeditionary Force carried five mortars and three cannons.

The twelfth company is the reserve team.

Forgan left three companies to guard his home and led the remaining 3,000 people into the rainforest.

…………

The rainforests of Lustria are completely different from the black forests of the old world, which were impenetrable, and the forests of Tyrell, which were more fragrant and less threatened by beastmen.

The rainforests of Lustria give the expeditions a sense of pure lushness.

It was humid and sultry, the ground was covered with moss and algae, grasses, ferns, shrubs, and finally the big trees in the sky. The forest can pass through to accommodate the army, but it is not so neat.

After months of training, the Ash Legion was neatly organized and marching neatly, and the soldiers were in high spirits under Fulgrim's rearmament. They marched cautiously through the forest, watching every move nearby.

Passing through the bushes, Pilazzo struggled to brush the long bush leaves from his face, even though it was December, Lustcia would be relatively cooler, with a temperature of twenty-six or seven degrees, the The mercenary chief's face and body were also covered in sweat, and the dew soaked his clothes: "Damn, it's still December, and the weather is relatively cool. It's hard to imagine what we would be facing if it was midsummer."

Fugen carried the purple-gold power sword "Glory", the regiment commander wore purple plate armor, and his silver hair fluttered in the woods. He walked forward step by step with great rhythm: "Order everyone, not to wear wet clothes for a long time. You must not eat any wild fruits and vegetables, and you must not drink raw water. If you encounter any thorns, you must bypass or cut them off, keep the formation, and move forward slowly!”

"Yes!" A great swordsman responded immediately.

Under Fugan's subtle command, the army has always maintained morale. They carefully explored this tropical rainforest. Relying on Fugan's orders and prohibitions, the soldiers remained calm even if they saw some treasures. They first carefully checked whether there were any treasures. Ambush before collecting treasure.

Lustia's reputation for gold everywhere is well-deserved. After just three days of marching, the Ashes Corps seized quite a lot, and some gems, silver, and gold were taken into the pockets of greedy humans.

Three days later, the expedition came to a lizardman ruin.

This is a long-abandoned lizardman city. The tall pyramids have collapsed a lot and are covered by branches, vines and thick trees. Huge boulders are paved with passages in the ruins. There are many ponds in the ruins. Swimming piranhas.

Why do they know that there are piranhas in the pond, because some soldiers have already paid the price with their lives.

The solid slate floor and the soft and moist soil form a sharp contrast. The tall city walls of the past have collapsed, and there are hardly any good buildings in the entire ruins. The brightly colored patterns carved on the slate have long faded over time.

"It's gold! What a huge amount of gold!"

"My God! Such a large piece of silver!"

"Enamel stone!"

"This is jade!"

"We made a fortune!!!"

"Ms Fortune is up!"

The soldiers of the expeditionary army let out an unbelievable cry, and the ruins are like paradise! Gold and silver treasures were piled up everywhere, and many soldiers happily slapped their faces with their hands, shouting incredulous.

After months of training and preparation by Fugan, these soldiers were extremely disciplined, and when they saw the wealth, they did not go up to loot with excitement. The army's organization and formation were always roughly complete, and the soldiers just reported to Fugan: "Legion Commander! We found a lot of gold and silver treasure! Will the soldiers be allowed to take it themselves?"

"Divided into three teams! The third company, fifth company and ninth company are allowed to act on their own, and each person can collect treasures that do not exceed fifteen pounds. The rest are on guard and closely monitor the movement in the vicinity!" Fugen watched alertly. Around: "Maybe, something is watching us."

"Yes!" The army trained by the Emperor's Son Primarch was forbidden. The soldiers of the three companies began to use the prepared bags to scrape the treasures. The rest of the army remained vigilant and waited.

"Attention, give priority to collecting books, crafts, art, not just gold and jewelry." Fuggan then ordered.

"Yes!" The soldiers admired and worshipped the Legion Commander from the bottom of their hearts, and they carried out Fulgrim's orders earnestly.

The human army began to carefully bag all kinds of gold and silver jewelry. By the way, they also obeyed Fugan's orders and maintained their vigilance. The human army carefully felt every move around them and did not give the enemy any chance.

As everyone knows, it is the soldiers who are always vigilant, on the branches deep in the rainforest.

Several chameleons were lying on the branches observing the every move of the expedition.

This ruin is a trap, and several waves of humans have already fallen here, turning it into a delicious meal in the belly of the lizardmen, or living sacrifices to the snake **** Sotek.

Humans are always greedy. Seeing so much wealth, they can’t walk. Explorers often put all kinds of gems, gold and jade in their bags frantically. When the ambush Lizardmen swarmed, many greedy people swarmed them. Not even willing to give up money to escape.

But now this group of people is different, they are very alert.

"Attack now?" the chameleon whispered.

Ambush here is a Skink Legion, led by a Saurus Ancient Blood Warrior.

The Ancient Blood Warriors were the leaders of the Lizardmen. They obeyed the Skink Priests. Above the Skink Priests were the Demon Slanns, but the Slanns slept most of the time.

"Wait." The ancient blood warrior shook his head: "Come out and attack again."

Inside the ruins, Fugen looked at a huge slate. His hand brushed the surface of the slate. Surrounded by ponds and green grass, the slate revealed its true colors.

"The invasion of chaos has long been prophesied." There are four pictures engraved on the slate. The first picture is that the portal of the ancient sage broke, chaos came, and countless demons came from the warp to the main material world.

"The loyal servants of the ancient saints will rise up to resist." In the second picture, groups of lizardmen are fighting against the Chaos Demons.

"The maelstrom is not the invention of the elves, the elves just activated the device that the Old Sage left in Ulthuan." Fulgrim continued to browse the third picture, the first generation of Phoenix King "Defender" Elario is facing the four Chaos giants at the same time. Demon, not far away, Dragon Trainer Kaledor built a maelstrom.

Forgan wanted to continue to look at the fourth picture, but found that the fourth picture had been damaged and could not see anything clearly.

Is the future like this picture, where everything is swallowed up by chaos?

"There is still hope," the Emperor's Son Primarch murmured, "always there is hope."

"Enemy attack!!!" At this time, Pilazzo suddenly shouted: "There is an enemy attack! Soldiers! Prepare to fight!"

"Fight, or die!" cried Fulgan. "Soldiers, the enemy is coming!"

"Understood!" The soldiers of the expeditionary army were stunned for a few seconds after hearing the enemy's attack, and immediately reacted. They stopped their actions, put down the gold and silver treasures in their hands, and prepared for battle.

Flocks of Skinks appeared in the forest, and they were the Skink Legion ambushing the human army.

"Formation!!!" Fugen stood in front of the army alone, and he raised the power sword "Glory" in his hand.

The training of the legionnaires for the soldiers is engraved into the soul and their instincts. When the large group of Skink wargroups and Skink Skirmishers gradually approached, the human army was ready for battle relying on the terrain.

A large group of spearmen and halberdiers were at the forefront. They inserted their shields into the ground, and the dense forest of spears pointed directly at the incoming Skink Legion. Large groups of Skinks kept pouring out of the forest, and most of the human soldiers were Never seen such a strange creature, they have a cute face, round eyes, fins on their heads, brightly colored bodies, wearing simple leather armor, using sticks and shields, and marching towards the army formed by them. Like a forest of guns rushing in.

"Fire!!!" Pilazzo's roar dispelled the inner hesitation of the soldiers, and after hearing the order of the deputy commander behind, a large group of crossbowmen, archers and musketeers raised their long-range weapons and moved towards the spirits. The Lizard Legion attacked.

Almost at the same time, all the crossbowmen, archers and musketeers fired together. Hundreds of arrows, bolts and musket bullets caused huge casualties to the Skink soldiers. The lizardmen fell one after another.

Many human soldiers were relieved to see this, these ancient creatures were not invincible.

The expedition force is beginning to gain confidence, even in the distant forest, a large group of Skink army is still joining the battlefield.

Leaving dozens of corpses, the Skink Skirmishers approached the gun formation.

"Javelin! Be careful to avoid! Tortoise shell!" Forgan keenly noticed the strangeness in the Skink Legion. The group of Skink raised the javelin in their hands and threw the poisoned wooden javelin at the human position.

"Turtle Formation!" Hearing Fugen's order, the human army moved.

The long-range troops retreated in an orderly manner, the pikemen and halberdiers re-approached the front line, they pulled up their shields and held them in mid-air, and behind them, the sword and shield soldiers were carefully arranged in several rows, facing the air. They raised their shields together.

The human positions were instantly covered by large shields and kite shields, and most of the dense javelin waves hit the shields.

"Ding ding ding ~" The sound of sharp weapons hitting the shield, but no one was injured.

The Skink Skirmishers held few javelins, and after three rounds of salvo, they ran out of javelins.

At this time, a large group of Skinks had approached the front of the human army.

"Form a phalanx of spears!" Fulgen then ordered.

The soldiers immediately obeyed the order. The first pikemen and halberdiers squatted down, and the second row of soldiers stood. The pike phalanx formed, and the dense pike forest directly faced the onslaught of the Skink infantry.

The large group of Skink infantry found themselves caught in the siege of countless spear points. The short sticks in their hands were unable to break through such a solid long spear phalanx~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Skink in front rushed up, and the Skink in the back was again. Squeezing forward, under Fugan's order, the crossbowmen and archers took the opportunity to shoot the skinks in the distance, while the musketeers formed three factions and took turns to shoot the nearby skinks from the gaps in the gun formation.

"Go to hell! Bastards!" The spearmen and halberdiers punctured back and forth in a rhythmical manner, the sharp points of the spears pierced into the skin of the skink soldiers, spurting red blood.

Strong discipline and sturdy formation constitute the magic weapon for mankind to win. As the great swordsmen led the sword and shield soldiers to join the battlefield from the side, the victory and defeat became clear. After more than ten minutes of fierce battle, the Skink Legion dropped hundreds of soldiers. The Lizardmen ambush army, which suffered heavy losses, was forced to retreat.

The loss of the expeditionary force was very small, only a dozen people unfortunately died, and the remaining humans cheered loudly for victory.

"Don't be too happy, my soldiers, this is just a tentative attack by the enemy." Fugan warned his soldiers: "Don't be carried away by victory, if these ancient races in the forest have only this strength, How did those human expeditions disappear? Why didn't those barbarians who believed in Chaos enter the forest to plunder?"

"I understand, Legion Commander, we won't take it lightly!" The soldiers who were convinced of the command of Legion Commander Fugan responded in succession.

"Pack up as soon as possible, we are camping here today." Fulgan then ordered: "Send someone to send a sentry in the distance, get ready, and there is a fierce battle."

"Yes!" The entire army is like a sophisticated machine, each performing its duties.

In the rain forest not far away, the ancient blood warriors of the lizards are discussing with their subordinates.

"This group of humans is very powerful, and the weak Skink Legion cannot defeat them."

"Report to War Leader Kuga immediately! Request reinforcements!"

"We need the support of the Holy Legion of Lord Kuga!"
