The flames soared into the sky, as if they were dyeing the entire sky the color of flames.

Thick smoke is constantly filling the city.

At this time, the smoke was probably so thick that it could make people suffocate.

And in such a terrifying sea of ​​​​fire, a burst of magic light suddenly lit up, and dark elf mages scattered everywhere, maintaining protective shields, and rushed out of the sea of ​​​​fire with a large number of dark elf soldiers in the city.

Although the outer protective cover can isolate the direct damage from flames and explosions, the temperature cannot.

The terrifying high temperature around them has made their shields become like an oven. If they stay here any longer, even if they are protected by shields, they will probably be roasted to death by this high temperature.

Not daring to relax for a moment, the dark elf soldiers sweating profusely, clenched their teeth, and continued to escape out of the sea of ​​​​fire while protecting the dark elf mage who held up the shield.

And during this period, in the sky, three of the airships that had completed their bomb-dropping mission began to spontaneously ignite and crash under the constant attacks of the harpies.

The remaining two airships wanted to evacuate, but they could not escape the pursuit of a large number of harpies. In the end, they followed the footsteps of the three airships in front and crashed on the way to evacuate.

This scene made Philip Albert in the back feel heartbroken.

Damn it, it was all money, and it ended up being used as a disposable consumable?!

The only thing that could give him some comfort was probably that the five airships had completed their bombing mission.

Let the fire burn for a while. After the fire was slightly controlled, he gave the order again, instructing his army to put out the fire, enter the city area, and launch a manhunt and encirclement.

During the entire search, they found more than 400 corpses that had been burned to a coke-like appearance.

Those corpses were obviously burned beyond recognition under the terrifying high temperature of napalm bombs, and even some of their morphological features were burned away.

From a distance, it looks like a piece of black coal leaning towards the human form.

However, there are basically no humans in this city, only dark elves, so the identities of these corpses can be easily confirmed.

However, the number of casualties was obviously smaller than Philip Albert expected.

But think about it from another perspective, considering the strength of the dark elves, these more than four hundred dark elf soldiers are estimated to be comparable to the two or three thousand troops of other races.

Of course, an algorithm like this is his rough estimate, because if you want to make detailed calculations, you must first confirm the opponent's arms, such as dark elf mage, dark elf crossbowman, dark elf artillery, dark warrior, black knight, etc.

There are a lot of different arms, and the value of each arm is actually different.

If you successfully destroy the opponent's high-level troops, you will definitely make a lot of money.

But according to Philip Albert's thinking, these more than 400 corpses were probably at the level of low-level soldiers.

In this way, his mood is actually quite subtle now.

But at least, he took the city back...

With such positive thoughts, Philippe Albert's mood suddenly became more subtle as his eyes swept over the city that he had successively made a mess with white phosphorus bombs and napalm bombs.

In any case, when the fight reached this point, what else could he do except continue to advance?

The army continued to advance, while the dark elf army, which had been attacked unilaterally one after another, fought and retreated along the way.

After many battles with Philip Albert's army, the only city behind them now is the port city that they first captured.

During the continuous retreat, Delk's face remained solemn.

At this moment, both of them actually knew the other's purpose.

Philippe Albert wanted to severely damage the Dark Elf army on the front line before Hydra arrived, paving the way for the subsequent battle.

The Dark Elf army, on the other hand, wanted to preserve its combat power as much as possible before Hydra arrived, to avoid a head-on confrontation with Philip Albert's army, and to accumulate strength for the subsequent attack.

The actions of both sides with their own purposes have evolved into the current situation.

However, if they continue to retreat like this, they will be left with only one port city and will soon have no way to retreat.

At the same time, they absolutely cannot abandon this port city.

Because of this expedition, most of their supplies were stored here and then transported to the frontline battlefield in batches.

Once the port city is hit, their losses will be heavy.

Thinking of this, Delk's mind had already begun to have the idea of ​​​​fighting the opponent twice to test the vigor of the human army.

After all, he can't always let his opponent do whatever they want. Although this is a strategy, continuous battles and retreats like this will still have a great impact on the morale of his army. If it continues like this, morale will probably be low. No.

It will be helpful for the subsequent battle.

Upon thinking this, Delk immediately changed his strategy.

Another early morning, the harpy's piercing scream completely broke the peace around him.

Immediately afterwards, circles of magic light continued to spread from a distance.

Many soldiers hadn't even woken up yet, and they were hit with two layers of negative BUFFs in succession. The feeling, for a person who was still half asleep before, was almost like death.

The peripheral security forces had no time to react. In this wave, the dark elf army, which had the advantage of aerial vision, undoubtedly took the first advantage.

The detection spells of the dark elf mages clearly showed the location where the opponent's troops were concentrated. Therefore, at this moment, they did not need to say anything at all. They aimed at the location with the strongest and densest red light, and launched a series of predator ballistas.

Develop a roar.

The bombardment carrying the light of magic swept towards the camp of the enemy human soldiers crazily, and the astonishing destructive power erupted, constantly venting their anger over the past few days.

The peripheral security forces did not play a warning role at all, which caught the human army by surprise.

The Predator Ballista is a very terrifying weapon. Every magic shell that flies over will cause greater AOE damage than the high-explosive shell at the moment it explodes. At the same time, during this whole process, there will be

It comes with a series of negative effects such as 'poisoning' and 'corrosion', which is enough to scare people.

After a series of shelling, taking into account the remaining number of magic crystals on the front line, Delk promptly signaled the artillery troops to stop. Then, a dark elf troop wearing black metal light armor, holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, violently

With the cry of killing, he drew his sword and rushed towards the human camp.

This unit is the front-line unit of their dark elves, the dark warrior unit!
