C31 (2/2)

He leapt onto the tower and brandished Zhou Tiancheng's long sword. Wind blades filled the sky and sword beams cut through the air. In less than two minutes, all of the thieves in the tower had turned into corpses!

Zhou Tian Cheng finished off a tower, then quickly brandished his sword and released powerful sword energies that destroyed the stairs leading up to the tower. Then Zhou Tian Cheng turned around and jumped down from the tower, killing off all the guards at the bottom, and then sent out two powerful Sword Qis of the Saint level, blasting away all the guards at the tower's base. After that, Zhou Tian Cheng stood there guarding the door, killing all the thieves coming towards the tower one by one.

Du Yu didn't let the troops carry heavy shields this time, he only gave each soldier a light shield. Even the soldiers' armor was replaced by light leather armor, so of course the troops could rush up as fast as they could.

As a matter of fact, the soldiers who were lightly armed followed Zuo Ye and charged forward at a much faster speed than those who were wearing shields and gankai. Of course, the casualties were also much greater – although the soldiers who were charging had shields, they were not able to block the arrows of the thieves. There were still soldiers who were being hit by arrows that couldn't be covered by shields, such as their legs.

Since arrows, stone bullets, and the like all attacked the soldiers charging, unlike the previous Zhou Tian Cheng who only attacked one person, Zuo Ye's charge was much easier than Zhou Tian Cheng's. Occasionally, a few arrows would hit Zuo Ye's body, not harming him at all.

After a while, Zuo Ye arrived in front of Zhou Tiancheng's pagoda. Since Zhou Tiancheng had already destroyed the pagoda's door, Zuo Ye entered the pagoda without any obstruction.

Entering the tower, Zuo Ye saw the bloodstained Zhou Tian Cheng brandishing his sword, sending out sword Qi and wind to kill the Thief who tried to rush into the tower.

Arriving at Zhou Tian Cheng's side, Zuo Ye sent out a chain of electricity to kill a few bandits. He then said to Zhou Tian Cheng, ”Leave this place to me. Go and finish the mage in the largest tower.”

— — That old mage's magic didn't pose much of a threat to Zhou Tian Cheng and Zuo Ye, but it was a threat to the ordinary soldiers. That was why Zuo Ye sent Zhou Tian Cheng to deal with that mage.

”Yes sir!” Zhou Tiancheng responded with a grunt, then rushed out of the tower with his sword and charged toward the tower that was burning with fiery clouds. Zhou Tiancheng easily killed all the thieves blocking the way … Du Yu commanded the soldiers to charge. Eight of the ten soldiers in charge fell on the path of the charge, but a small portion of the soldiers still rushed to the base of the tower and charged into the tower.

Some of the soldiers left behind to guard the towers, while others followed Zuo Ye to destroy the thief's catapult. Seeing that Zuo Ye and his men were about to destroy the catapult, the thieves, of course, refused to agree, and a close, bloody melee began — the army had Zuo Ye, the Level 8 warrior, who was small in number, but was going straight ahead, and had more than a dozen men on his side, but a single magic arrow from him was enough to kill the thieves. At the same time, because the tower was destroyed and the catapult was blocked, Zhou Cheng charged up to the largest tower, stopping most of the soldiers and the biggest tower. Zhou Tiancheng charged all the way to the largest tower, and with a leap, he sent out several battle qi ripples and a few explosive fireballs that struck Zhou Tiancheng. Zhou Tiancheng was almost knocked down by this power, but Zhou Tiancheng, who was a Saint level expert, was soon stabilized under this kind of attack. Sword Qi flew in all directions with wind blades covering the sky, and in just a few rounds, the rank 5 and 6 fighters were all killed by Zhou Tiancheng.

”Humph!” It was a rank 7 wizard, ”Zhou Tiancheng sneered and said,” I caught him at the right time and gave him to Mr. Zuo!

With that, Zhou Tian Sheng threw himself at the old mage. His sword, covered in blood, released a blinding white light, and immediately afterwards, the old mage's shield was pierced through; his shield was broken, and his staff fell to the ground. The old mage had already shut his eyes in despair, but the expected death didn't come; when the old mage opened his eyes once again, he discovered a white light enveloping his body, and the white light formed a ring around him.

”Great Sealing Art!” The old mage cried out in shock. ”You are Saint …”

”Humph!” ”I know quite a lot,” Zhou Tian Cheng walked over and knocked the old mage unconscious.

At this moment, another few thieves rushed up from the stairs. Zhou Tian Cheng immediately went over to kill them, and then did the same as he did to destroy the stairs. He then jumped down from the tower and rushed towards the last tower.

Zhou Tian Cheng quickly arrived at the last tower. Not long after Zhou Tian Cheng jumped up, all of the thieves in the tower died. Then, Zhou Tian Cheng destroyed the stairs in the tower once more before leaving.

At this point, the Thieves' defensive system was completely disabled. The soldiers no longer had to face the rain of arrows and could no longer charge forward in great danger.

Seeing that the Thieves had lost all will to fight, Du Yu continued to command the soldiers to chase down the fleeing Thieves, trying to stay alive according to Zhou Tian Cheng's orders.
