Inside The Black Mist Chapter 977: Desperate

In the tactical binoculars, Lin Zhengnan could clearly see that the rib-like chariots were lined up in neat square formations, advancing forward with the momentum of crushing everything. Beside those chariots, there are infantry soldiers with full-body armor with black background and red stripes following closely. They are holding rough rifles with extremely large muzzles. The power of such rifles is comparable to that of small heavy artillery!

At this time, the two sides of the prismatic chariot opened, and figures jumped out of it. These things looked like spiders, but they had a head full of electronic eyes that could turn 360 degrees. There are weapon platforms with linked motor cannons rising from the armor spread out on the back, and there are also sword-shaped forelimbs with red lights on the edges that look extremely sharp.

These mechanical creations made a soft 'squeak' sound when they moved, and red lines appeared on the surface of their bodies from time to time, and they emitted a slight buzzing sound of energy overflowing.

It is these things that in the past three hours have completely leveled the outer city of Chizhou Fort, forcing the army of Chizhou Fort to retreat into the inner city. And before that, the opponent hadn't even used this mechanical creation.

As the city lord of Chizhou Castle, Lin Zhengnan's palms were full of sweat at the moment, and he put down his binoculars with a heavy heart. Looking around, he could see the word fear written all over everyone's face, and their morale was low.

They are already scared by the enemy, so how can this battle be fought!

Lin Zhengnan is forty-eight years old this year, and he is in his prime. At the age of thirty, he took over the position of city lord. For eighteen years, he has managed Chizhou Castle with great success.

The location of Chizhou Fortress is remote and it is a small fortress. It is rich in minerals, including a kind of iron ore called 'Red Scale'. The former city owner only operated the mining industry, but he could only maintain Chizhou Fort's daily needs, and sometimes even needed to borrow food from other fortresses to tide over the difficulties.

After Lin Zhengnan took office, he vigorously developed other industries. After nearly 20 years of operation, he built Chizhou Fort into an important supply point on the mainland commercial road.

At this point, the people in Chizhou Fort no longer have to worry about food and clothing, but Lin Zhengnan also knows that it is limited by the geographical location of Chizhou Fort and the resource constraints in the surrounding areas. It is difficult for this fortress to develop into a large-scale fortress, and it is already its limit to be able to become a commercial road supply point.

Because of this problem, Chizhou Fortress could not attract powerful sublimators to stay. Including Lin Zhengnan himself, there were only four rank 6s in this fortress.

Whether it is the size of the army, the number of sublimators, or the number of strong people, it is difficult for Chizhou Fort to compare with a large fort.

Being able to respond quickly after being attacked, resolutely abandoning the outer city, and shrinking the main force to the inner city is already the limit of what Lin Zhengnan can do.

Now, he just hopes that his call for help will be answered. But the nearest fort to Chizhou Fort is also two hundred kilometers away. Even if they are willing to support Chizhou Fort, it will take at least three days from mobilizing the army to arriving at the battlefield.

Three days later, Chizhou Fort may have turned into ruins.

Besides, Lin Zhengnan also thought of retreating. He should be able to break through with all his strength while the main force of his army is still alive.

Can...

Not reconciled!

Lin Zhengnan clenched his fists tightly. This fortress had concentrated his efforts, and he couldn't just give it up.

Standing on the tall building, seeing the army on the opposite side approaching steadily, at this moment, Lin Zhengnan suddenly felt a deep and very uncomfortable aura. He saw a monster-like chariot appearing behind the battlefield. That chariot was like a hill, huge in size, and the armor on it was hopelessly thick.

There are an outrageous number of weapon platforms on the chariot. Among them, the triple main gun is almost a mobile version of the city-level strategic weapon. In addition, there are sharp spikes everywhere around the chariot. It is conceivable that when it rushes into the enemy's formation, those spikes will easily cut through the armor of the enemy's chariot.

On that monster-like chariot, stood a figure. The opponent was not wearing any armor, but the aura he released was not to be underestimated.

Lin Zhengnan picked up the binoculars to look again, and what appeared in his line of sight was a young man in his thirties. His complexion is pale, black eye makeup seems to be applied around his eyes, a skull earring is worn on his left ear, and his long black hair is tied into a ponytail, which is blowing in the wind behind his head.

He seemed to have sensed Lin Zhengnan's gaze, and suddenly looked over. For a moment, Lin Zhengnan met the deep black eyes of the other party. He felt dizzy, as if his whole body was about to fall into those abyss-like eyes.

Lin Zhengnan hurriedly removed the binoculars, breaking out in a cold sweat. He knew that he had lost his composure, and he also knew that there were many officers around him looking at him, but he couldn't help himself. The moment he met the eyes of the other party, Lin Zhengnan had a terrifying feeling that his soul was being swallowed.

He hasn't felt this way for a long time!

Calm down, Lin Zhengnan breathed out and said, "Who the **** are you? Why did you attack our Chizhou Fort!"

On the monster chariot, the figure who was obviously the commander raised his hand, and the whole army stopped immediately. On the dark battlefield, the pressure created by the figures was like the oppressive atmosphere before the storm, making it difficult for the soldiers in Chizhou Castle to breathe.

Afterwards, a low voice sounded on the battlefield. Lin Zhengnan did not expect that the pale man's voice would be so low when he spoke, as low as an echo from the abyss.

"You don't need to know our identities, you just need to know that now you have only two ways to go. Either fight or surrender."

The man wearing the skull earrings said indifferently: "The former dies, and the latter lives. I will give you a minute to think about it."

Beside Lin Zhengnan, someone strode out and said in a deep voice, "City Lord, surrender without a fight. Even if we can survive, we will become a joke in the mouths of others."

"Let me go, I want to challenge the opponent's leader!"

The person who spoke was an old man who was nearly sixty years old. His temples are gray, but the sharpness in his eyes remains undiminished, and behind his hands are extremely imposing.

Wei Qingning, the number one master of Chizhou Castle, although he is also rank 6, but his combat power is as high as Lin Zhengnan, the city lord.

"Old Wei's words are very true, but..." Lin Zhengnan was still a little worried. After all, if Wei Qingning lost, his morale, which was already sluggish, would fall directly to the bottom.

"City Lord, I know what you are worried about." Wei Qingning said with a slight smile, "If I die in battle, then the City Lord will have the right to withdraw troops or even surrender. At that time, no one will dare to say a word of gossip."

Lin Zhengnan's body shook slightly, and only then did he realize that Wei Qingning used himself to build a step down for Chizhou Fort and Lin Zhengnan.

If Wei Qingning, the strongest battle force, loses, then it is reasonable for Chizhou Castle to retreat or surrender.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhengnan sighed, stepped aside, and respectfully bowed to Wei Qingning to the end.

Wei Qingning accepted his worship calmly, stepped forward and shouted: "The enemy's commander, do you dare to fight this old man?"

The man on the monster chariot laughed: "Death struggle, whatever, this will convince you to lose. What's your name?"

"Old man Wei Qingning!"

The old man let out a loud shout, and the star cluster appeared, turning into brilliant dou qi and condensing a set of ancient and clumsy armor. He raised his hand, and two soldiers came over with a long-handled saber.

The length of this saber is almost as long as Wei Qingning's height, and the handle alone is nearly half a meter long, even if it is held with both hands, there is still room for it.

The sword is so heavy that ordinary people cannot lift it alone, so two people are needed to carry it.

But the old man caught it with one hand, and then pointed the blade at the enemy coach: "Report your name!"

The man chuckled: "When I think you are qualified to know, I will tell you. I'm not interested in telling a soft-footed crab my name."

Wei Qingning didn't bother with this issue, and immediately his fighting spirit stretched away, curling up on the edge of the blade. Suddenly, the long blade shone brightly, making the old man look like a **** of war.

This scene slightly improved the low morale of the Chizhou Fort soldiers.

With a flicker, Wei Qingning rushed out of the high platform and landed heavily on the ground, setting off a circle of shock waves, causing the mechanical creations in the enemy line in front to sway and lose their footing.

The man on the monster chariot smiled slightly, and suddenly a black mist surged around him. A group of ravens flew out of the black mist, croaking loudly, they flew to the ground and circled for a while, and the figure of the man appeared in the group of crows.

The ravens threw themselves into the man's body one by one and disappeared.

Wei Qingning frowned slightly, because he couldn't see what kind of tricks the opponent was using. He paid close attention to the exposed skin of the enemy general's cheeks and the back of his hands, but he didn't see any trace of his rank coat of arms. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. .

At this moment, the man raised his hand, beckoned and said, "Come on."

Wei Qingning was furious, the other party obviously didn't take him seriously, and immediately exhaled, the sound was like thunder, rumbled across the entire battlefield, making those soldiers in full body armor feel like they were drunk, The body shook, and some of them were poor in physical fitness, and even had bleeding from their ears and noses, and they fell over.

Using a loud shout to gather his strength, Wei Qingning rushed towards the enemy general at a pace like the wind. Around them, the soldiers and chariots had already retreated, creating an open space for the two to fight.

Wei Qingning came to the opponent's side in an instant, and the sword suddenly slashed, and the blade was quietly dyed with a touch of green light, outlining a blue light and shadow.

The man wearing the skull earrings had an extremely arrogant smile on his face, he didn't dodge or avoid it, he even opened his arms, allowing Wei Qingning to slash into his body with a knife.

Successful?

Wei Qingning couldn't believe that all this came so easily, and suddenly felt a difference in the touch of the blade, and saw the man's body suddenly split into several groups of black ravens and scattered.

These ravens scattered all over the sky, circling above Wei Qingning's head, making disturbing cries. With a piercing knife light, he broke into the crowd of crows.

When he was soaring into the sky, a figure descended from the crowd of crows, so when Wei Qingning "broke through the clouds" and came out, that man raised his hand towards the old man in mid-air, his arm grew suddenly, It turned into a boa constrictor exuding black aura and green flames floating in its eyes!
