Last Totem Novel - Chapter 517
Chapter 517 Select
Forty minutes later, at 10:00 a.m. Silver City Time, Dr3716-12-19, and 5:00 a.m. Satt Time, more and more insect corpses accumulated under the city wall, gradually forming a huge ramp. The weeping flies stepped on the corpses of their companions and rushed forward one after another, as if they were endless.
“Da da da!” “Da da da!” “Da da da!” “Da da da!”
The bounty warriors were divided into two rows. One was standing, the other was squatting. The assault rifles in their hands were spitting out flames, shooting at the swarm of insects below.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh After a few seconds of silence, the fuel bottle behind him suddenly exploded like a rising fireball.
“Save … save me!” “Water! Water!” “Ahhh!” At the instant of the explosion, the sprayed fuel ignited his companions. They instantly burned into flames, screaming miserably as they unconsciously ran around.
Standing in the back row, the soldiers of the Boar Group, who were temporary gendarmes, quickly pulled out their pistols and shot them to death to prevent the damage from spreading further.
“All fire-breathing soldiers, abandon your equipment immediately!” Seeing this, Hagrid closed his eyes and gave the order.
Immediately after, the firefighters took off their fuel bottles and threw them into the swarm of insects.
“Boom!” The dense bullets immediately pierced through the flask, triggering a new round of explosions.
More than ten minutes later, the bug corpses piled higher and higher, and there began to be weeping flies flying up the city wall.
“Prepare the bayonet!” Seeing this, Hagrid waved his hand and gave the order to fight with ease.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh” In an instant, the white light on the city wall faintly emitted a cold light. The warriors drew out their short knives and assumed a fighting posture.
“For glory!” Hagrid roared, pulled out his sword, and rushed to the front of the line.
“For glory!” Looking at the swarm of insects rushing towards them, the bounty warriors let out heaven-shaking battle roars.
However, when Benjamin heard the roars of the warriors, he muttered in his heart, “Insect-like mutants also have glory? Hmph, that’s ridiculous …”
Seeing that the city wall was about to fall, Tie Zha’s heart skipped a beat and he flew towards the fourth floor of the fortress. He wanted to wake Lena up beforehand so that she wouldn’t release her dragon might and reveal her identity. He would rather die with the five thousand people in the stronghold and destroy his newly built home than let the Temple find Lena.
It was because of him that she had come here. She had already given too much and could no longer grieve her.
Suddenly, a sudden change occurred in his mind!
As soon as Tie Zha left the ground, he saw sparks of red light shining in the night sky. First, it was blurry and faintly visible, then it became clearer and brighter.
“Look, flying machine!” “It’s an aircraft!” “The reinforcements are here!” “Long live!” The soldiers cheered.
Rumbling sounds gradually came, and the shadow in the sky grew larger and larger. Not long after, the flying machines poked out of the clouds one by one, their front ends flashing with dazzling red light, causing the ground to turn bright red.
Immediately after, the red light grew brighter and brighter, like a flower blooming in the night sky. It gradually opened its petals, condensed into shape, and shot out abruptly.
“Aggressive!” “Aggressive!” “Aggressive!”
In an instant, hundreds of purple-red beams shot into the swarm, triggering a large-scale explosion.
“Boom boom boom boom!” “Boom boom boom boom!” “Boom boom boom boom!”
High-temperature air currents rushed towards his face, filled with a charred smell. Beams of light continued to fall behind the swarm, and wherever they went, the ash was annihilated.
“Electromagnetic cannon!” “It’s an expeditionary army warship!” A few bounty warriors cried out, but they did not receive much response.
After all, for most of the people here, it wasn’t a happy thing to be saved by someone they hated.
In the next moment, countless meteors flew out from the warships, dancing like fireflies in the night sky.
“Kill for the Holy Light!” Benjamin patted his helmet and jumped into the air, slaughtering the swarm of insects.
When the stars flew down, it was the end of the swarm. In the blink of an eye, the Knights Templar who descended from the sky had destroyed the swarm of insects and retreated back repeatedly. Not long after, the perimeter of the stronghold was emptied.
In the battle, two streaks of light landed on the city wall. Tie Zha followed behind Hagrid and walked over.
Two people came, one tall and sturdy, the other well-proportioned and upright. When he saw the first person, Tie Zha was stunned. It was actually Song Haohe. He hadn’t expected that he would join the temple, but it wasn’t strange to think about it. After all, Song Haohe had shown enough pride in the Battle of Tyre. It was reasonable for You Ge to rope him in.
However, when Tie Zha saw the second person, his entire body froze. His sword-browed eyes were somewhat carefree and unrestrained, and it was his lost brother, the seventh elder of the Northses, Hildebrand Sujia.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to greet him, but the moment his gaze swept across his opponent’s chest, he froze.
The vines, flowers, iron crosses, black skeletons, the number “5”, the patterns engraved on his chest were all striking at his heart, reminding him that it was a Templar!
Hagrid was also stunned when he saw Hildebrand. Although he did not know the identity of the other party, his appearance was somewhat familiar.
“You are” Hagrid subconsciously blurted out, his eyes filled with hesitation.
“Hello, I’m Hildebrand Sujia, the captain of the 2nd squadron of the 6th Brigade of the 5th expeditionary army. This is my colleague, the 3rd squadron captain, Song Haohe.” Hildebrand saluted Hagrid and introduced him.
“Hello, I’m Hagrid, the person in charge here.” Hagrid replied.
“Commander Hagrid, it’s been hard on you.” Song Haohe revealed a sunny smile and said.
After a simple exchange, Hagrid couldn’t help but ask, “Squadron Leader Su Jia, your family …”
“Huh?” Hildebrand stared at him doubtfully.
“I mean, you” He hesitated, not knowing what to say. At this moment, Tie Zha touched him quietly. He immediately came to his senses and said to Hildebrand, “I … I mean, you … you’re very modest. Your father and mother must be big shots.”
“Thank you for the compliment.” Hildebrand nodded and said, “My father and mother are just ordinary nobles, not big shots.”
Hagrid nodded.
A moment later, Tie Zha and Hagrid walked to the side.
“There’s no need to guess. He’s Seventh Brother.” Tie Zha whispered.
“Ah!” Hagrid’s eyes widened as he looked at Hildebrand involuntarily. Tie Zha immediately turned around and blocked his view.
“Don’t look over. He’s a Knight Templar.” Tie Zha reminded.
Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then clenched his fists tightly. After a while, he slowly loosened his grip.
“He … he is …” Hagrid’s voice trembled, and his eyes gradually turned red.
His closest relatives were close, but they couldn’t recognize each other …
“Grandpa told me not to disturb him and let him live his life peacefully.” Said Tie Zha in a low voice, pressing hard on Hagrid’s shoulder.
“But he is” Hagrid wriggled his lips and tears fell silently.
“We, Northas, have already lost too much blood.” With that, Tie Zha left.
After repelling the swarm of insects, Benjamin flew back.
“Thank you for your help. Otherwise, I would be lying here today.” After landing on the ground, Benjamin opened his helmet and bowed to Hildebrand and Song Haohe.
“Young Master Lado, you’re too polite.” Song Haohe said with a smile.
“Remember to treat me to a drink.” Hildebrand smiled.
“After the insect tide, please come to Silver City 33 together.” Benjamin smiled and said.
“I can drink very well.” Hildebrand said with a serious expression.
“You are welcome to drink me out of bankruptcy at any time.” Benjamin put away his smile and said seriously.
“Then we might as well obey respectfully.” Hildebrand smiled, then looked at Song Haohe and said, “Remember to hide your women. There are bulls with hair here.”
“You are the bull.” Song Haohe pushed Hildebrand’s shoulder and laughed.
Not far away from them, there was a pair of eyes staring absentmindedly through the dark glass of the helmet.
Not long after, the three of them jumped into the air, flew back to the flying machine, and left.
Three hours later, it was 13:00 a.m. Silver City Time, Dr3716-12-19, and 7:00 a.m. Satt Time. The insects were getting fewer and fewer, and the insect tide was finally over. The bounty warriors lay on the city walls and slept. They didn’t even have the energy to pack up their spoils of war. The castle was in a mess, and there were even many people sleeping on the corpses.
In the office, Tie Zha and Hagrid drank silently. Although their bodies were extremely tired, neither of them felt sleepy.
“I think Seventh Brother has the right to know his background.” Hagrid gulped down a large mouthful of wine, put down the bottle heavily, and said in a rough voice.
“So what if I know?” Tie Zha asked.
“He … he’s Northas!” Hagrid roared.
“Then what? How do you want him to face his adoptive parents and his classmates?” Tie Zha asked.
“He … he …” Hagrid held back for a long time, unable to utter a single word.
“Seriously, if I have a choice, I would like to live a foolish life in the dark.” Tie Zha took a sip of wine and said.
“Truth?” Hagrid asked with a frown.
“Yes.” Tie Zha said expressionlessly.
“Then have you thought about it …” Hagrid narrowed his eyes and said, “Seventh Brother’s child is probably an insect …”
“And his grandson, great-grandson, great-grandson!”
“They might even be worm transformers.”
“Tell me, on that day, what should we do, Templar Knights? What should we do!” Hagrid questioned loudly, exerting too much force for a moment, and with a “bang”, the wine bottle in his hand shattered into pieces.
“This” This time, it was Tie Zha’s turn to be speechless.
“His body is bleeding from Northess. He is the Vast Expanse Sword. This is the arrangement of the heavens. I have no choice, you have no choice, and he is just like us. He has no choice!” Hagrid thumped his chest and shouted loudly.
