Chapter 98: Forcing the Gate

  I went to attend the grand literary global writing exhibition Nanjing roadshow today, and came back too late (it ended at 10:30 pm, and I didn't get home until almost 12 am). Sorry to everyone.

  But because I promised everyone that there would be an update tonight, I mustered up the energy and managed to code out this chapter, even though it's already past midnight... But at least I didn't break my promise.

  On the long street, Hastings' roar echoed in the sky, and his eyes, like a grim reaper from the underworld, slowly swept over. At this moment, the crowded Byzantine soldiers on the street couldn't help but subconsciously lower their heads, not even daring to glance at Hastings!

  Xia Ya gripped the hilt of his sword tightly at the street corner, lowering his body and hiding behind an earth wall to stare intently at Hastings.

  Watching him standing in the midst of pursuing soldiers, watching the Byzantine soldiers being shocked and gasping for breath under his oppressive aura, watching the blood flowing like rivers, flesh flying everywhere, yet not a single Byzantine soldier dared to step forward!

  Hastings grunted, and the horse beneath him backed away slowly, then stepped back out of the long street. His long spear pointed at the Byzantine soldiers opposite, a drop of fresh blood falling from the tip to the ground, forming a small, intense red stain...

  The atmosphere seemed to have frozen completely, with only the sound of Black Stallion's heavy breathing and the clattering of hooves. As Black Stallion was about to exit the long street, Xia Ya watched anxiously from behind a mud wall, gripping a fire fork tightly in his hand, his eyes fixed intently on Black Stallion's back.

  These damn soldiers. Although they are numerous, they seem to be intimidated by Hastings' aura, each holding their sword and shield, yet not a single one dares to step forward to die. It's as if they've collectively petrified. Can it be that they're just going to let Hastings leave with impunity?!

  He turned the corner of the street. Hastings' mouth was curled up in a cold, sneering smile. He dropped a sentence: "Byzantines. Cowardly as mice!"

  He let out a loud whoop and turned his horse around to leave!

  Xia Gu couldn't wait any longer. He aimed at Hastings' momentary distraction, leaped onto the earthen wall and grabbed two stones from the side of the wall, then fiercely threw them at Hastings.

  Two loud noises, before he could even react. Hastings' long spear struck twice in quick succession, shattering the stone and sending shards flying everywhere. Amidst the splintered debris, Hastings' eyes locked onto Xia Ya standing atop the earthen wall.

  "Hah!" Hastings let out a long laugh. With a forceful kick, the tip of his stirrup shot towards Xia Ya. The black flame-like movement instantly appeared before Xia Ya's eyes, concentrating all his spirit. None of them could catch Hastings' sudden movement as the gun tip reached right in front of him. Xia Ya could only let out a low growl and flipped backwards with force...

  Hiss! Just as Xiaya was about to fall backwards, the gun tip brushed past his chest with a loud screech, and the black flames on the gun instantly tore through the lightweight armor of the 13th Battalion officer that Xiaya was wearing. A series of sparks flew out as the gun tip scraped against a scale on Xiaya's body, leaving a deep gash in its wake.

  Hastings had never shot a man dead with one bullet, and he was slightly surprised that this bullet grazed Xia Ya's chest and passed by, seeing Xia Ya fall back and drop behind the earth wall. Hastings let out a soft "Good skill!"

  He relaxed his arms, and the long spear pierced through the earth wall with a "pu" sound! Xia Ya fell to the ground and hadn't even had time to turn over when the spearhead was already in front of him again. This time he really couldn't dodge, the spearhead struck the dragon scales on his chest, and with a loud "bang", the scales were dented at that point. Xia Ya's chest felt like it had been hit by a heavy hammer, and suddenly everything went black before his eyes. A mouthful of blood had already reached his throat, but he forced himself to swallow it back down.

  In his body, a strange and faint warmth suddenly spread to the dragon scales on his chest. The original black flames under the dragon scales made a hissing sound, almost unbearable, but instantly saw a green gas enveloping...

  Hastings felt the gun tip being gently pushed away by a soft force, he grunted and withdrew his spear, only to see Shaya lying on the ground behind the collapsed earth wall.

  This was the first time Hastings saw Xia Ya's appearance, seeing this black-haired and black-eyed young man on the ground, wearing a Byzantine Empire officer's armor, staring at himself with a straight gaze.

  Hastings was slightly stunned, this was his first time seeing Xia Ya's appearance.

  Although the two had a brief close-range encounter on the battlefield, Xia Ya's face was covered with a mask at that time, and Hastings did not see Xia Ya's face clearly.

  Even... until just now, Hastings thought that the guy who ambushed him on the battlefield was "Bonfret".

  He led the army to retreat this time, but returned alone, sneaked back behind the Byzantine defense line, and made up his mind to kill that despicable and weak guy!

  The glory of a fair duel I won't give him, but such a despicable guy dares to insult the honor of my warrior, how can he be spared! No matter what, Hastings is determined to kill "Bonfret"! Moreover, it's said that this guy even shamelessly claimed that he was injured by himself on the battlefield, openly taking credit for

  What military merit does he have? This way, it's even more impossible for him to stay!!

  I am Haisten and others, how can I let these inferior ants insult my prestige!

  He was indeed bold and courageous, relying on his own bravery and martial prowess. He single-handedly infiltrated the Byzantine Empire's sphere of influence, arriving at Ye Huo Town, where he stormed into the Guardian Office with a single spear. Under the protection of hundreds of guards, he killed "Bonfrere" on the spot and also slaughtered all the Byzantine military officers present!

  Hastings thought he had just vented his anger, but looking at Xia Ya now, how could he have imagined that the one who truly desecrated his warrior's fanatical faith on the battlefield was this guy in front of him?

  The gun muzzle was popped open, and Hastings, although somewhat unexpected, immediately felt relieved. This time he came stealthily, in order not to attract attention, he did not bring his own three-edged war spear. After all, he was infiltrating the enemy's sphere of influence, if his identity was really exposed, with his deep-seated hatred for the Byzantine Empire, the Byzantine Empire would be eager to get rid of him at all costs and would not hesitate to assemble a team to eliminate this great threat!

  Hei Xingting was indeed arrogant, but he wasn't a fool after all. Although he excelled in martial arts, he wasn't the kind of brainless fool.

  At this moment, Hastings withdrew his long gun, thinking that his own long gun was ordinary in quality, while the other wore some high-quality inner armor. He took another look at the guy staring at him with wide eyes, and the little black-haired kid in front of him was quite interesting. Those Byzantine soldiers were so scared when they heard their name that they didn't dare to come forward. This kid actually dared to stare at himself? And there was no fear in his eyes?

  Hastin sneered, seeing the style of armor on Xia Ya's body. He had been fighting against the Byzantine army for many years and immediately recognized it: "It turns out to be from the Rodoria Cavalry Regiment, no wonder they're so tough."

  ”

  Although he praised him, Hastings wouldn't go easy on him. He jabbed his spear fiercely towards Xia Ya's throat. Xia Ya had just been shot and was suffering from severe chest pain, where did he have the strength to dodge or struggle? Just as he was about to close his eyes and wait for death, he suddenly heard Hastings' sudden cry of surprise.

  The gun muzzle had already reached his own throat, the black flame seemed to be just a thread away from touching his skin, and Xia Ya even felt a cold chill on the black flame...

  Hastings' gun had actually stopped!

  Hei Ting's hands grasped the gun tightly, but her gentle eyes widened and stared fixedly at Xia Ya, staring at the base of Xia Ya's neck!

  There, on Xia Ya's neck, was a pendant, an old fellow left to Xia Ya!!

  Hastings' face changed in an instant, confusion, surprise, shock, and a hint of inexplicable emotion flashed through his eyes, and at this moment, the hands of this Odin warrior were slightly trembling!

  He suddenly took a deep breath, turned his hand over and heavily struck Xia Ya's chest with the gun stock. Xia Ya was shocked and fainted immediately. Hastings' gun tip pierced into Xia Ya's waistband, he jerked his arm and lifted Xia Ya up, grabbed him and threw him onto the horse, placing him horizontally in front of himself. Then, with a loud shout, he spurred the horse to gallop towards the end of the street.

  He rode out of the streets of Wildfire Town with a horse, occasionally encountering Byzantine patrol soldiers who blocked his way. The long gun in his hand turned into a black flame and swept out, sandwiched between groups of blood light, easily sweeping out a passage! Wherever he went, the Byzantines were killed and wounded, unable to stop him from surrounding and blocking, and Blackstone had already rushed past quickly.

  In an instant, he had rushed to the gate of Wildfire Town. The town responded with a sudden warning bell, and the soldiers guarding the gate had already closed it. As Hastings galloped towards them, a team of soldiers formed up under the gate, holding shields and long spears. The leading officer shouted: "Kill anyone who breaks through!!"

  Where is Hastings going to roar? He let out a long whistle, and the long spear in his hand turned into a black lightning bolt that shot out, carrying a black air wave that slammed into the formation, instantly piercing several soldiers, and the remaining black light slammed into the city gate, causing it to shatter and explode!

  Hastings urged his warhorse on fiercely, the magnificent black stallion let out a long whinny and burst into a gallop, clearing the blades of dozens of swords below with one mighty leap, before charging straight out of the city gate!

  The war horse burst out of the city gate, and outside was a vast expanse of wilderness. The Byzantine soldiers behind him were shouting in terror and confusion. But Hastings suddenly turned his horse's head back, coldly gazing at the Byzantine soldiers inside the city gate. Suddenly, he drew a long sword from the saddle and threw it far away, hitting the stone wall above the city gate with a loud clang, sinking deep into the handle!

  "Tell your commander! Being wounded by Hastings on the battlefield? What a joke!"
