Imperial Crown

The crossbow arrow pierced Xiaobai's chest, and the tip of the arrow came out from its back, and blood kept falling. Even so, Xiaobai still flapped his wings hard, maintained his balance, and slid down slowly.

"Catch up!" Gangya urged his warhorse and shouted loudly!

Beside him was Raven's old acquaintance "Fire Beard" in the Bloody Highlands.

As horse thieves, they should have come and gone like the wind and moved like lightning, but they were really stunned and scared by Raven.

They scattered spies along the way from the Bloody Highlands to the Eagle Territory because they were always worried that this madman would come to the Bloody Highlands again and plow their homes and holes.

A few days ago, their spies found Raven's traces, and he was alone!

Such an opportunity is rare, so they recruited all the horse thief forces they could find, and even united with one of the famous horse thief gangs in the Bloody Highlands - "Spider Queen" Avila.

As a fourth-level seven-star warrior, Avila is already 41 years old, but there is no trace of erosion on her face. Her wheat-colored skin is smooth and elastic, her short brown hair is full of vitality, and the beauty mole at the corner of her mouth is even more impressive.

Not only is she beautiful, she has more than 3,000 horse thieves under her command, and is the main force of this ambush!

She rode on her mount "Dark Fang Wolf Spider", a third-level magic beast with a light physique and fast movement. She stared at the direction where Raven fell and led a group of horse thieves to chase him!

Just before landing, Xiaobai, who had almost bled out, finally couldn't hold on and fell to the ground, leaving a scarlet blood line.

Raven struggled to stand up, and Xiaobai kept him away from the fate of being smashed into a meat pie, but the originally bright white feathers were soaked in blood and messy.

Life was leaving her, and even Raven could do nothing about it.

At the last moment of his life, Xiaobai barely raised his head and looked at his master with reluctance in his eyes.

"You did a good job." Raven stroked the feathers on her head: "Sleep peacefully."

"Gah..." Xiaobai's wings flapped gently and finally closed his eyes.

"Haha, he's finished!" Gangya couldn't help laughing. When he thought about how he had been so flattering to Raven and begging for mercy in front of him like a dog, and now this baron was going to end under his plan, this feeling was even more refreshing than iced wine in summer!

"My Lord Spider Queen, you are still well prepared!"

In the face of Gangya's compliment, Avila snorted disdainfully: "Humph, just a small first-level mage."

Having said that, she still pulled the reins of her mount and ordered: "Scarface, Hammer, lead the team to attack!"

As soon as the voice fell, two people around her drove their war horses and led hundreds of horse thieves to rush towards Raven!

Just like her nickname "Spider Queen", Avila acted as meticulously as a spider web. It was also because she insisted on pulling out the crossbow originally installed on the top of the city wall that she achieved the decisive effect.

"Really cautious." Looking at the horse thieves running wildly in the flying sand, Raven said: "Unfortunately, you underestimated a magician!"

He waved the staff in his hand, chanted the spell, and the deep earthy yellow light flowed around him. Then he pointed his hand, and a dark yellow light flew out and sank into the earth.

The rough earth, which was originally covered with sand and gravel, suddenly became extremely smooth, like a slightly melted flat ice surface, and like a marble brick with water.

The war horses that were running wildly suddenly lost their grip and fell down one after another with a neigh. Inertia caused these war horses that were running at full speed to break their bones and tendons.

The blood gushed out and turned the earth red, and the war horses behind could not stop their speed and were tripped by the war horses in front, and they could not stop repeating the same mistakes!

In just a few breaths, more than 30 horse thieves lost their lives, and twice as many horse thieves were seriously injured. This scene made the horse thieves behind them bypass and stop, and dared not move forward!

Second-level magic, surface manipulation!

"Didn't you say that Raven was only a first-level magician!?" Avilia frowned.

"At the end of last year, he was indeed only a first-level magician!" Steel Teeth shouted in disbelief.

Avilia pursed her lips. Raven's strength exceeded her expectations. A second-level magician who was only 21 years old and was proficient in the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind, had unlimited future!

But fortunately, he will die here today, otherwise, in time, the entire Bloody Highlands may be trampled under his feet!

"Vulture, lead people to shoot arrows!"

"Yes! Lady Spider Queen!"

A bald horse thief obeyed the order and called a group of subordinates, like a river separating from the horse thieves.

From this, we can see that the Spider Queen is well trained on weekdays. The speed of these horse thieves' formation deployment is far faster than most noble armies, and can almost be compared with the Iron Legion!

The rain of arrows whistled in, covering the sky, and Raven had already made preparations. After chanting, a green wind curtain swept over, and some feather arrows were bounced off. Even if the other part could pass through the wind curtain, it lost its power and fell crookedly on the ground.

But Raven's face was not happy. It was no secret that he knew the wind wall technique, and judging from the other party's previous arrangements, he would never be a brainless person. There must be a reason for doing this.

Sure enough, at the same time as the rain of arrows fell, two acquaintances rushed over from the left and right!

It was Fire Beard and Steel Teeth!

Avilia's eyes were locked on Raven: "At this distance, you can only release a second-level magic. Let me see who you can deal with!"

For any magician, distance is life.

Firebeard was surrounded by blazing fire, and Steel Teeth was wrapped with purple electricity. If Raven wanted to deal with one person, he would definitely let another person get close.

Raven chose the third method. After chanting for a while, just before the two second-level horse thieves rushed to him, a light flashed on his body, and four identical figures suddenly appeared around him.

Second level magic, mirror shadow technique!

Like Storm Shield and Surface Control, this second-level magic was also previously purchased from the Deep Blue Platform.

At that time, Raven purchased a total of six second-level magics.

Then he continued to chant.

"Light magic!" Avilia's brows trembled. She thought she was high enough to look up to Raven, but she didn't expect that Raven actually had such a trump card!

But so what? Having a few more clones won't let you leave alive!

Gangya had the same idea, with a ferocious smile on his face, and the sword in his hand was wrapped in dazzling purple lightning!

"Leaven, today I will let you see what a true genius is!"

He swung the sword lightly, and an electric spark suddenly exploded behind Raven, followed by a bucket-thick electric light rising from the ground, connecting between the sword blade and the electric spark!

A violent noise exploded, and a mirror image around Raven burst like a bubble.

Combat skill, Thunder Surge!

Firebeard pulled out an ordinary long sword from his waist, and the blazing white flame fighting energy was poured into it, roasting the long sword through almost instantly. He stretched out his hand and waved, and the long sword melted into a dense rain of fire in the air. The air was scorched and twisted, and the fire rain washed away, annihilating Raven's two mirror images!

Combat skills, start a prairie fire!

At the same time, Raven's chant was finally completed.

The black light flashed on the staff, and immeasurable darkness surged out of the void, suddenly wrapping Fire Beard in it!

Firebeard only felt that the light disappeared before his eyes, his ears could not hear the sound of wind, his sense of direction was lost at this moment, and he could not even hear the heartbeat!

Second level magic, Embrace of the Night.

Firebeard calmed down. Controlling the war horse has become his instinct. Even if he can't feel the reins in his hands, he is sure to ride the horse away from Raven in the direction in his memory. Then when the magic time is over, he can return to the battlefield. .

Raven is only a second-level magician, so it is impossible to permanently deprive him of his senses!

This is indeed the case. The Embrace of Night can only last for half a minute at most when it is used on this second-level extraordinary body.

But for Raven, enough was enough.

The palm of his hand was wiped on the belt, and a bright silver color appeared in Raven's hand. It was the modified mithril hand crossbow!

"Be careful!" Gang Ya reminded loudly.

But Firebeard couldn't hear it. Raven had been waiting for this moment for a long time!

Raven triggered the crossbow, and the dark star iron crossbow flew out suddenly, breaking through Firebeard's vest armor and piercing his heart!

Blood spurted out, and Firebeard felt a burst of unspeakable pain and weakness. His heart was still beating, but every beat could only tear the wound wider!

Finally, the effect of the Embrace of Night disappeared, and the light reappeared in front of Firebeard's eyes, but this was also the last time he saw the light.

His weak body could no longer hold the reins, and he fell down from the horse.

Firebeard ushered in eternal darkness.

"Raven—" Firebeard's death made Gangya furious. He swung his sword and killed the last image of Raven, then mobilized his war horse and stabbed Raven in the vest!

Die to me! ! !

Wrapped in purple fighting spirit, the enchanted long sword broke through Raven's clothes. Just when Gangya thought he was going to make a successful attack, he encountered unexpected resistance!

Can't penetrate!

The mithril soft armor played its role at this moment. The impact force acted on the blade of the enchanted long sword, causing it to suddenly bend into an exaggerated arc. Raven was also rushed by the force, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. At the same time, he staggered forward a few steps.

Then, suddenly look back!

There was blood in his mouth and nose, but there was still a smile on his face!

For some reason, when he saw this smile, an ominous omen arose in Gangya's heart, but the next moment anger rose in his heart - you are a magician, how dare you fight me in close combat! ?

With his legs clamped on the horse's belly, the long sword in Gangya's hand was wrapped in lightning and stabbed Raven's throat!

You have armor on your body, but do you have any on your throat? ?

But at this moment, the war horse under his crotch whined and fell down suddenly, because at this time, the horse's feet had become muddy!

This is the first-level magic stored in Raven's staff, the mud spell.

Gang Ya was already prepared for this, he stepped on the stirrups with his legs and was about to fly up, but Raven rushed forward with extremely fast speed, grabbed his wrist, and threw him to the ground. !

Gangya was panicked but not confused, and his fighting spirit formed an armor of thunder and lightning on his body.

Not to mention a mage, even if they are both second-level knights, no one can hold his body with bare hands!

However, Raven did not let go. Even though his sleeves were burnt black under the electric shock and his muscles were constantly twitching, his hand tightened and tightened, even pinching Gangya's armor until it was deformed!

The pain came like a wave, and Gangya couldn't help but want to scream, but this was just the beginning, because Raven had already raised his fist.

The Eyes of Truth ran at full speed, the silver light in the eyes faded to golden light, and then a fierce punch was wedged under Gangya's throat!

One punch

Only one punch!

A fist mark appeared clearly on Gangya's armor, and then with the fist mark as the center, the armor was broken layer by layer, Gangya's chest collapsed, and his internal organs were squeezed out of his mouth and nose with blood.

A huge force penetrated his chest and even broke the armor on his back. This force tore his shoulders, leaving his arm in Raven's hand, but his whole body was thrown out!

Puff.

Gangya's body fell to the ground. Even though the light in his eyes gradually disappeared, his fingers were still twitching, as if he couldn't accept the ending that he was dead.

"Genius? Haha!"

Raven opened his palm that was spasmodic due to the electric shock, wiped the blood on his face, and turned his head away.

On the horizon, thousands of horse thieves rushed over!

Avila smiled: "Raven, you are indeed very strong, but you have used all your means. Now, what else can you do to face my army?!"

"Unfortunately, if you were born in the Bloody Highlands, I wouldn't mind you becoming my next husband."

Avila has already won. She has 3,000 horse thieves under her command, plus the rest of the horse thieves, there are 5,000 people, and Raven is just alone!

Boom... Boom... Boom!!

The horse thieves rushed towards Raven like a landslide with the sound of hooves. In front of such a formation, Raven was as small as an ant.

A stubborn ant.

Even though his clothes were torn and his face was covered with blood, he still refused to bow his head.

At this moment, he suddenly stood up, clenched his four fingers into a fist, stretched out his ten fingers, and raised his right hand high.

Avila laughed even more happily - this posture is indeed cool and heroic.

But a dead hero is not a hero!

Then, the smile froze on her face.

Because just behind Raven, a huge figure rose from the mountains, surrounded by a gray-white dead spirit, and a green soul fire burned in its eyes!

Bone dragon! ! ?

Why did a bone dragon appear here! ! ! ?

The mountain-like body swooped down, and the shadow swept over Raven's body, covering the horse thieves' team like a dark cloud.

The surging dragon power that followed caused the horse thieves' mounts to be in chaos. They ran around uncontrollably because of fear. Some escaped from the team, and some fell to the ground and were trampled into meat paste by their peers.

There were even many horse thieves who fainted with white foam at the mouth in fear!

In mid-air, the bone dragon raised its head high, and the dead white dragon breath brewed in its throat, and then suddenly erupted:

"Tu-su-"

The dragon breath splashed like a tide!

Wherever it passed, whether it was people, horses or weapons, they were all stained with charred black, leaving only dry bones and rust!

With despair in her eyes, Avila still shouted, wielded the enchanted scimitar, and summoned the storm of fighting spirit to resist the dragon breath that fell from the sky!

The dark fang wolf spider under its crotch sprayed out a spider web, tying up the horse thieves and the earth within dozens of meters in front of it. Suddenly, it rolled up a two-meter-thick shield made of loess and flesh and blood to protect itself and its master!

But this is dragon breath.

Almost in an instant, the dead white thick dragon breath penetrated the loess shield and pressed down!

The dragon breath rushed on the ground, and the dark fang wolf spider screamed shrilly, its claws dancing wildly, but it could not stop the dragon breath from covering its body and drilling into its mouth and nose, and its eight compound eyes exploded one after another!

A layer of stormy fighting spirit has been wrapped around Ivilia's body. It is a unique ability of the fourth-level knight. It greatly strengthens the body's defense ability, and even the same-level monsters are difficult to break!

But all this is in vain in front of the dragon's breath. Her scimitar and armor have become charred and fragile. A little black mark reappears on the originally healthy wheat-colored skin, and then erodes inward, revealing muscles, blood vessels, and even bones!

"Impossible...!!" Ivilia screamed unwillingly: "It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this!!!"

She should have killed Raven to make her reputation louder, and then robbed the Eagle Territory and collected a huge amount of wealth!

Rule the entire bloody highland!

However, under the impact of the dragon's breath, her ambitions and her plans all turned into a pile of charred bones!

When the bone dragon flapped its wings and pulled up, there was no life wherever it passed, leaving only a dark mark of death.

One dragon's breath killed hundreds of horse thieves on the spot! !

At this time, the bandits' casualties were less than one-tenth, but the battle could already be declared over.

Their morale had completely collapsed, and everyone only wanted to escape. Even if Avila was still alive, she could not organize any effective attack.

Raven watched this scene quietly, turned around and walked to Xiaobai's body, stroking its head, with a calm murderous intent in his eyes, and ordered Margaret in his mind:

"Kill!"
