Chapter 17 (1/2)
17 – Steel Golems
Almost none of the attacks had any effect on those mechanical Bladed-troops, only when some Knight ranks would raise enormous stones, would they smash more than ten Bladed-troops.
But those human warriors are also Black City’s final resistance.
After twenty human ladders were raised up, a steady flow of large amounts of Bladed-troops poured in from them.
“Die for me! All of you go to h.e.l.l! You wretched golems!!” A Great Knight roared in anger, while holding a 2m long great sword and wearing more than 100Kg of heavy armor. He charged towards the Bladed-troops in front of him, brandished that terrifying 2m long great sword to chop at the Bladed-troops, forcibly cutting them in half.
At the Great Knight’s side followed eight Knights forming the symbol of a small arrow. The Great Knight brandished the terrifying great sword – wherever the great sword pa.s.sed, those mechanical Bladed-troops were chopped in half and blown away.
The Great Knight had the eight Knights by his side in order to a.s.sist him and cover his rear, so that he won’t be besieged and therefore may display his strength to his hearts content.
Just that the Great Knight’s outbreak was like the dusk below the setting sun, that is, no matter how desperately he fought, the number of Bladed-troops above the wall still continued to increase.<sup>1</sup>
Those mechanical Bladed-troops were ignorant of fear, as they expressionlessly brandished their enormous alloy blades and rushed in the middle of the human warriors to raised a storm of flesh and blood.
Carnage ensued above the wall, accompanied by miserable screams of countless Black City’s human warriors.
The humans army was being ma.s.sacred by the mechanical Bladed-troops, then it crumbled and scattered everywhere.
It didn’t take long before only four Great Knights commanding each a squad of Knights remained above the wall, that still stubbornly resisted
A large number of the mechanical legion’s main force directly advanced towards the Warlock PaG.o.da. A thousand Bladed-troops separated from the mechanical legion to surround the remaining four squads of Knights.
“Surrender! You still have a way out, acknowledge allegiance to me or die.” A mechanical Bladed-troop employed a frigid and synthetic voice towards the four squads of Knights as it spoke.
Knight ranks are extremely rare in the human world. Only one in a thousand people has a chances of becoming a Knight rank. The four squads of Knights represented Black City’s essence, if they surrender, then in the future, Yang Feng was going to have a much smoother time among humans in Turandot Subcontinent.
“Pei, you monster! Go eat s.h.i.+t!” The burly Great Knight Bennett was holding a great sword, in his eyes flashed a whiff of unruliness and he spat a mouthful of saliva towards that Bladed-troop.
That Bladed-troop coldly order: “Kill everyone in this squad!”
Two hundred mechanical Bladed-troops simultaneously moved from all around, moving their bodies in the exact same way, towards Bennett and his seven subordinates to strike at.
“Follow me!!” Bennett roared, brandished the great sword in his hands and subsequently rushed towards the Bladed-troops.
“Ah!!”
“Save me!!”
Practically at the same time, bursts of miserable help-seeking cries were heard by Bennett. He turned his head only to see his comrades, that always followed him, struggling against and then cut into countless pieces by that unending flow of Bladed-troops .
Less than five breaths later, all of Bennett’s seven team members were killed by the those Bladed-troops – the seven team members also went all out to destroy five Bladed-troops.
“No! You animals!!” Bennett’s eyes were red as he issued a heart-rendering roar and brandished his great sword to instantly chop at a mechanical Bladed-troop, cutting it across the waist.
12 alloy blades chopped at Bennett from six directions, after loosing his team members’ protection, he was barely to blocked four alloy blades before being cut into countless pieces.
