Upon hearing Jia Yugong's shout, many of the winged cavalry warriors were furious. The empress didn't say a word and shot an arrow. There wasn't a bottle of sarin gas tied to the arrow. In an instant, the arrow arrived in front of Jia Yugong's face.
Jia Yugong suddenly placed his long saber horizontally in front of him. A loud "clang" resounded throughout the battlefield. Jia Yugong couldn't stand still and retreated seven or eight steps before he managed to stabilize himself.
Looking at the center of his saber, there was a dent in the arrow and the arrow was smashed into pieces.
He was overwhelmed with shock that an arrow was so powerful. However, it also made him feel that Qi Zixiao had no other way to deal with this situation. Immediately, he looked pleased.
"Everyone, get ready," Jia Yugong ordered. The soldiers at the front immediately drew their arrows, lightly nocked them on their bowstrings, and lowered them slightly.
As for the Zhu Mu Elders, they were hiding nearby and waiting for Qi Zixiao to come over before making their move.
…
"Your Majesty, they have retreated 30 meters. I would like to lead some men to kill our way over." Zheng Hu immediately cupped his fists in front of the empress and requested.
"I am willing to go with you," Teng Ji and Li Tanhua requested at the same time.
At this moment, the other party had retreated 30 meters. Naturally, the shooting range had also retreated a little, allowing more than a hundred men to go over.
"There's no hurry." Ren Baqian jumped down from Qi Shui's back and said. "Your Majesty, you can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against a thief for a thousand days. Don't look at me. This is slang, do you understand slang? "Ren Baqian said to the three people who were glaring at him.
"Even if they are on guard during the day, can they still be on guard at night? At that time, they won't be able to see anything clearly and won't know what will happen. It's just a delay of half a day, "Ren Baqian said to the three of them.
In fact, it was much more convenient for the winged cavalry to act at night due to their low numbers and high strength. On the contrary, those elite Great Xia soldiers would probably be tired after standing here for an entire day. Furthermore, if they were to shoot the poison at that time, they probably wouldn't be able to detect it.
"That's fine, we'll wait until night," the empress said indifferently.
If it wasn't for the fact that her strength had been greatly reduced, she would be able to kill her way over by herself.
"However, if we don't make any movements, I reckon they will figure it out in no time. At that time, they might come up with some ideas. I'm afraid it will be troublesome. I have another idea that we can try, "Ren Baqian suggested again.
"Speak." The empress looked at him expectantly. She wanted to see what ideas he had.
Ren Baqian took the backpack off the drone again and said, "I will try to see if I can use this to throw the sarin over."
The empress tilted her head slightly and said, "Okay."
The three of them were no longer clamoring about going over to chop people up. They wanted to see what he was going to do. The thing in his hands was more attractive to them than chopping people up.
In fact, Ren Baqian had previously thought about the problem of the airdrop. He even went online to search for a remote control for making a timer. However, the remote control that was sold online had a very short range. Usually, it was only 100 meters. What he needed was a few kilometers.
There were many other ways to modify it, but unfortunately, he didn't know how to do it. His hands-on ability had never been his forte, and he didn't know much about machinery.
Later, he thought of a way to tie the sarin bottle to the drone with two ropes.
One of the ropes was tied to the back half of the bottle and fixed to the drone. The other rope was threaded through the rubber stopper of the bottle.
Then, he would use the crane platform of the drone to pull off the rubber stopper. Then, there would only be one rope fixed to the back of the bottle. The mouth of the bottle would naturally drop down and spill the sarin liquid.
Not to mention that it wasn't easy to detect, it evaporated quickly, and it covered a larger area.
The only drawback was that a lot of the sarin gas would evaporate when it was spilled, which was somewhat wasteful.
However, with the lethality of the sarin gas, it should be sufficient.
One had to know that after using the two bottles just now, there were still 12 bottles on hand, which was equivalent to six kilograms.
In theory, one kilogram of sarin could kill millions of people.
Ren Baqian greeted the few of them and distributed the antidote to them. This was because he was afraid that they would be poisoned to death if he didn't do it properly. Following which, he took a bottle and the drone to a faraway place to fiddle with them.
After a full half an hour, Ren Baqian ran back to take the remote control.
"Is it done?" The empress turned her head and looked at him. Her clear and bright eyes contained an inquisitive look.
"It should be fine. Let's try it." Ren Baqian grinned.
At the front, Zheng Hu and Teng Ji were holding binoculars and pretending to look at the situation. The other winged cavalry warriors also got down from their mounts and split out a hundred people to follow behind them. They looked like they were ready to rush over at any time to attract the attention of the other party.
Sure enough, the other party didn't relax. Just now, when Ren Baqian was fiddling with the drone, two and a half rows of soldiers fell, giving Jia Yugong a fright.
Later on, he was sure that it was the spread of the poison and that the other party didn't use any undetectable methods. This caused the other party to retreat another 20 meters. Furthermore, the other party caught a few small beasts and threw them to the front of the battle formation. If those small beasts died, the other party would retreat again.
"Qi Zixiao, you are unworthy of being the fifth most powerful expert in the world. You are neither advancing nor retreating. What exactly is the meaning of this?" Jia Yugong yelled from time to time to provoke the other party.
If it was in the past, this group of winged cavalry warriors would have directly charged over.
However, they didn't know what Ren Baqian was doing at the back. Jia Yugong's yells at most caused a little commotion before everything calmed down.
Jia Yugong stretched out his hand to block the sunlight and looked at the other side. He muttered incessantly to himself as he didn't know what these people were doing.
The Zhu Mu Elders were hiding in their hiding place. After a while, they opened their eyes. After seeing that there wasn't any movement, they closed their eyes again and continued to rest.
Even though more than 400 winged cavalry warriors weren't a match for the two of them, it would be a little tricky with the addition of Qi Zixiao. As for how much strength Qi Zixiao had left, the two of them weren't confident at all. It was better to wait for the other party to arrive before making a move.
Just the fact that they had captured Qi Zixiao made their withered hearts a little excited.
Qi Zixiao's status and strength were extremely tempting to anyone.
Time passed slowly. A small dot first flew 800 meters into the sky. Following which, it began to move toward the top of the battle formation before descending another 200 meters.
The Zhu Mu Elders suddenly looked up at the sky at the same time. With their eyesight, they could only see a small dot in the sky. It was the thing that was making a buzzing sound.
The two of them were somewhat puzzled as they didn't know what was above them. It sounded like an insect.
At this moment, a few drops of water dripped in front of the two of them, causing them to frown slightly.
Under the control of Ren Baqian, the drone in the sky pulled off the rubber stopper of the bottle as the Cloud Platform rotated. The mouth of the bottle immediately dropped down, and the sarin liquid spilled out.
However, it was blown away by the mountain wind and scattered in all directions.
Ren Baqian controlled the remote control. He didn't know if the drone was successful or not. After waiting for another two minutes, he controlled the drone to fly back.
Before the drone could land on the ground, the battle formation on the other side suddenly became chaotic.
In the battle formation, the heads of the winged cavalry warriors fell to the ground.
Seeing this situation, the empress immediately knew that Ren Baqian had succeeded. Her aura suddenly changed, and her cold voice rang in everyone's ears.
"Take the medicine and kill!"
The winged cavalry warriors had been waiting for a long time and didn't know how long they had to wait. Just when they were feeling anxious, they heard this voice and were immediately overjoyed. After taking the medicine, one by one, they ran to the edge of the battle formation, jumped up, and directly leaped toward the opposite side while shouting, "Kill!"
At the same time, the empress transformed into a red shadow and leaped over everyone's heads. She shot two arrows in the air toward the positions in the battle formation that weren't affected by the poisonous gas. At the same time, she pounced toward Jia Yugong.
She didn't react just now, but that didn't mean that she would let him off.
At this moment, Jia Yugong didn't have any heroic aura. When the battle formation started to become chaotic, he was already shocked. After hearing this shout, he immediately broke into a run and ran in the direction of the Zhu Mu Elders.
At this moment, the Zhu Mu Elders were also shocked when they saw the battle formation become chaotic, but they forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in their hearts. Seeing the empress transform into a red shadow and pounce toward Jia Yugong, the two of them waited for a moment until Jia Yugong ran close to them. When the empress was only about 30 meters away from him, they let out a long laugh and appeared.
The two of them were equally skinny and had the same appearance. Their laughter sounded like two pieces of wood rubbing against each other, and it was extremely unpleasant to hear.
A brush as thick as an arm appeared in Elder Zhu's hand. He drew in the air, and a black word appeared in the air.
"Lock!" Elder Zhu shouted softly, and his eyes shone brightly.
Following Ren Baqian's shout, a huge chain appeared beneath the empress's feet and wrapped around her.
This was his godly martial arts.
Elder Mu leaped directly above the empress, crossed his arms, and shouted, "Suppress!"
A huge paperweight that was about 20 meters tall and more than 20 meters in diameter appeared in front of him. It was like a mountain and smashed toward the empress below.
"Your Majesty!" The winged cavalry warriors behind her were all red with anger.
"Zixiao!" Ren Baqian, who was watching this scene with binoculars from afar, suddenly cried out involuntarily. This was the first time he had seen a battle between Spirit Wheel experts. From such a distance, the thing that appeared out of thin air looked like a small mountain. If it were to hit the empress, he didn't dare to think about the consequences.
The empress raised her head and looked at the paperweight that was smashing down with great force. Her eyes began to turn red, and every tiny part of her body felt like it was being torn apart. At this moment, all she could see was the paperweight that was getting bigger and bigger, as well as the evil spirit pattern below it.
Jia Yugong turned his head and saw this scene. He immediately stopped in his tracks and sneered.
"Qi Zixiao … Huh?" Jia Yugong calmed down and was about to shout something when he saw Elder Mu holding his throat and suddenly falling to the ground. The paperweight in the air also turned into countless pieces and dissipated.
Elder Zhu's body swayed and fell to the ground as well. The black chain and bamboo brush disappeared at the same time.
Before Qi Zixiao could finish shouting, this sudden change almost made him choke to death. In front of everyone, he shouted, "Huh!"
