Chapter 26: Killing(1/2)
The entire Southern Alliance was in chaos, perhaps because it had been slacking off for too long. Many people already felt that they would not be able to fight for a while.
In the midst of chaos, Yilin rode on her horse and started rushing towards the direction where Richi was, and happened to meet Benedict II in the same direction.
"What happened? Did the enemy attack?"
"It's not an enemy attack, but I discovered a lot of black dragons, and they may have actions!"
The whole world was in a roar.
...
The dark and quiet room was coming, and Ricci stood quietly, looking through the window at the direction of the Gustav Palace Square in the distance.
The figure was half reflected in the fire, and half immersed in the darkness.
"Are you going to do it?" Salina asked.
"Do it." Ritchie replied softly.
Salina, who stood behind him, retreated little by little until her figure completely submerged into the darkness.
Ricci murmured to himself: "Father... it's time to avenge you. It's about to come. I will take the head of the Black Dragon Elder back to comfort my mother..."
...
Several kilometers away, Augustberg was also looking in the direction where Rich was.
Behind him, black and surging magic power was oozing out from the patterns of the magic array on the ground, flying into the sky, gathering little by little, like a black hole. Thunder and lightning leaps at the edges around, making waves of roars. The space began to twist.
The black dragons around who were responsible for casting spells were still silently chanting the dragon-word magic, injecting their magic power into the magic circle bit by bit.
"They noticed it." The black-haired dragon girl said softly.
"If they don't make any noise, I have to worry, and it's normal to notice it." Augustberg turned around and whispered: "I'll be responsible for breaking the back later, and you'll be responsible for taking people away first."
The girl was stunned for a moment and looked at Augustberg quietly.
After a pause, Augustberg continued: "I was forced to retreat because of my strategic mistakes. I should be responsible for it. Don't worry, no matter how strong the undead on the opposite side, they wouldn't be able to eat us in one breath. Especially when we are already prepared."
"Yes!" the girl replied.
...
A large number of lords and soldiers had already rushed to the castle where Ricci lived, but were all stopped by the undead soldiers.
"What do you want to do?! Retreat it all! Go back! Do you hear it when you go back!" A figure walked out of the castle, it was Bangmao.
Yes, the stick is not dead, but it has no leg. Now there is an iron rod on the calf. I still feel a little limp when I walk.
"Grey is back?" Yilin, who was standing behind on a horse, opened her eyes slightly. This was the first time she had seen Bangmao in this period of time.
Not only the stick, but also Carl Carl stood quietly behind the undead soldiers in armor and watched.
At the top of his voice, Yilin shouted: "The black dragon hidden in the city has appeared, and some kind of ritual is being carried out! We want to know what decision has been made by His Highness the Lich King! Should we launch an attack immediately!"
"Go back to me!" Bangchui raised the warhammer in his hand and shouted: "His Lich King will notify you of your decision!"
Everyone was quiet, but no one left, just stood quietly in front of the castle gate and looked at Bangmao.
All the lords looked at Yilin. Yilin did not move, so they did not move.
There were constant noises coming from the military camp in the distance.
The two sides were just stalemate quietly, and Bangmao was so angry that his beard was raised, but he could do nothing.
After a while, Carl suddenly raised his head, nodded, and whispered a few more words, then looked at the human soldiers blocking the gate of the castle and said, "His Highness the Lich King ordered everyone to attack the Black Dragon!"
Suddenly, the scene became quieter.
The lords' eyes were almost falling off.
King Barnett III of Allen quickly dismounted, squeezed into the front, and asked hesitantly: "How to attack?"
"Run directly, don't you already know where they are?"
"Just just joking? Is this going to kill many people!"
"How can you know that many people will die if you don't rush? Also, how can you not die in war? As long as you can win, do you not trust His Highness the Lich King?"
Barnet III was shocked and didn't know how to answer. He wanted to say, "The Lich King did not die in the war before." But obviously, it was impossible to say so at this time.
Everyone was staring at Carl.
"Aren't you going to say something?" Elin asked Benedict II next to her in a low voice.
"I thought you would say something." Benedict II replied in a low voice.
"You are the leader of the Confederacy."
"And you are the pledgee of His Highness the Lich King, aren't you more important?"
"I can't solve this, at least it can't solve it now."
"What should I do? As at the beginning, did a group of people die? I really didn't expect this battle to be fought like this. I thought... forget it, let's not say it. That's just what I thought." As he said that, Benedict II turned his head and left with his own people.
Carl shouted loudly: "This is an order, have you heard it clearly? This is an order! Charge towards the direction of the black dragon! Immediately!"
"Yes...yes!" The lords left in panic. In a blink of an eye, the city gate that was surrounded was empty, leaving only a group of undead soldiers.
Oh, and there was a group of people Yilin brought with him. However, Yilin didn't say anything, but just looked at Bangmao and Carl lightly, turned his horse's head, and left with his own people.
After Elin left, Bangmai slowly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Carl, and said, "I think Little Ritchie is better than his father, really."
"But I don't think His Highness the Lich King would want to see him take this approach." Carl replied softly: "Of course, there may be no better way."
...
Riding along the street, Elin asked Abby Robles, who was riding beside her: "Do you think it's Gray back?"
"It's possible," Abby Robles replied, "Miss Elin, have you noticed Captain Bangmao's legs? He lacked one leg, which shows what he had experienced before. It's just that he didn't tell us."
"It's good to come back." Yilin's mouth raised slightly, as if she was a little relieved: "Finish the fight first, let's go to see Gray together."
...
Gathering and rectifying the army is not an easy task. Although the southern lords have tried their best, it took half an hour to make the first batch of troops cross the city wall and enter the Heilong City.
At the same time, the Undead Legion also took action. In fact, the Undead Legion moved faster, and the number of people crossed the city walls was several times higher than that of the human legion.
This can be said to have given the human lords a lot of confidence. Of course, it was just a matter of giving confidence. The undead did not immediately pounce on them to fight the black dragon, but watched from a distance. The bone dragons were hovering in the sky.
Still no lich appeared.
Turning back to the slowly opening of the space door, Augustberg looked quietly.
"I'm thinking of a question. They can't know that we are opening the door to space. Logically, if they want to stop us, they should immediately pounce on us and fight us. In this way, there may be a little chance to stop us. But they don't. And..." Looking at the human legion that was about to move, Augustberg said: "They seem to want humans to be pioneers."
"So? Go back to the original question, how many lichs support him?" said the dragon girl next to him.
"Yes." Augustberg nodded and sighed helplessly: "If it were before, I would definitely feel that there were not many lichs supporting him. I immediately stopped the space gate and rushed up to fight them. But now... to be honest, the previous tactics impressed me, and I was afraid that the same move would be the same. They just wanted to attract us to fight them."
"Maybe he shouldn't have used that tactic so early."
"Not necessarily. If they hadn't used that tactic before, which made us lingering fear, we wouldn't have opened the space door to choose to evacuate. In this way, they wouldn't have this opportunity, making us feel that they 'looked not much strength'."
The girl turned her face and glanced at Augustberg.
Taking a deep breath, Augustberg continued, "Okay, you guys are ready to leave. This place has no value to keep on guard, and we don't need to change our decisions because of their actions."
...
Ritchie was still standing in the study, looking quietly.
"It's already started." Salina came quietly behind him.
"I understand." Ritchie lowered his head and gently stroked the hilt of his sword: "Let's go."
As he said that, he turned around and left the room.
...
"Ao!" Before the door of space was completely opened, one of the black dragons who were casting spells suddenly screamed, and they were frustrated as if they were hit hard.
"Look at what's wrong!" Augustberg shouted quickly.
The black dragon flying in the air quickly flew towards the black dragon that was flew behind and landed beside him.
"Your Highness, nothing happened, it's just a spell that I remembered wrongly."
"Can you get any such important spells wrong?"
The black dragon returned to the edge of the magic circle, continued to inject magic power into the magic circle, and recited the spell at the same time.
...
Another half an hour passed.
More and more soldiers of the Southern Alliance have crossed the city walls, and at the same time, the undead army has also crossed the city walls. Countless armies have joined the streets from all directions, stormingly towards the direction of the Gustav Palace.
The black dragons guarding the periphery, responsible for the rear-breaking, all showed their dragon shapes and confronted the human legion and the undead legion.
Many black dragons spread their wings and flew into the sky, hovering back and forth in the sky, guarding against the attack of the undead legion from the air.
"Isn't it done yet? Didn't I say that it would be done in one hour?" Augustberg turned the huge faucet.
To be continued...
