Section 47 Scuffle (5)
On the battlefield in front of the mouth of the canyon, the bloody battle that lasted for two days and two nights finally ended two hours ago.
The undead retreated, and the battle ended with a victory for the Confederates. The victory came suddenly, and before the hoplites launched a surprise attack, no one could have imagined that the young Emperor of the Empire would destroy the front command platform of the undead legion alone.
Pedi's godlike stance not only frightened the enemy, but also made the orc warriors fighting on the front line look sideways, and the other allies of the empire saw how powerful the rumored strongest paladin was.
The cold wind of early spring and the frost blew across the vast battlefield, slicing across his cheeks as if a blunt knife was scraping his face, and Pedi rested on a rock blackened by evil energy, and the knights carefully wiped the stains on his face with thick cotton cloths, cleaning the blood from his armor.
Next to them was a huge pit left by Pedi's final blow, and the orc vanguard was building a temporary garrison around the pit, while the hoplite cavalry continued to advance south on Pedi's orders after a short rest.
"Fight" the warm bonfire was ignited, and Pedi pushed away Hu and walked to the side of the bonfire, stretching out his cold hand to keep warm. The guards and some orc warriors also subconsciously gathered, and when the knights saw the orcs coming, they all subconsciously took out the anti-flea and parasite potions and prepared to spray.
"Step aside. Pedi scolded.
The servants didn't dare to refute, so they had to retreat as quickly as possible, but what they feared didn't happen, those orc soldiers didn't dare to get too close to the emperor at all, and beside the emperor were the knights of the emperor's guard.
The short break did not last long, and after half an hour the Confederate front command was transferred, and the short-stayed First Banner Regiment of the Orcs continued its advance towards Fort Tillman, led by Prince Ribalo.
"You're all right, right?" Elin Phier came to her husband's side as soon as she completed the construction of the headquarters' defense circle, and used her magic to probe her husband's body.
"I'm a little tired, my joints hurt terribly, and my qi and blood are a little unsmooth, but you don't have to worry, at most half a day's holy power can be repaired. Pedi whispered to his wife, and then greeted Aetia and Andy Barrett as they walked by.
"My dear cousin, can the Holy Power really be that powerful?" Andy Barrett made an exaggerated expression, his smiling face piling up his facial features, "I just saw a god in a mythical story descend to the mortal world, and you whispered to me if you are someone..."
"The gods are watching his people all the time, and you better watch your words. "Are you doubting the gods?"
"The god has an endless heart, and he will not blame his people for a few jokes, only an evil god can be so stingy. "Andy Barrett doesn't care at all.
"Your Majesty Pedi. Aethia saluted instinctively as she approached, this time with a little more solemnity than before.
Peddy nodded slightly in response to the elven female general and walked over to the map spread out by the young staff officers, "Where is Enhi-Ella going to retreat?"
"The latest news from the scouts is that the Undead Legion has been retreating without any intention of stopping. Andy Barrett said as he gestured on the map, "Their main force has broken away from our defensive line in depth and is converging on the defensive line of the outer walls of Fort Tillmanburg. ”
"Retreat so simply?" said Pedi.
"They may be afraid of you charging again, after all, beyond the defensive lines of the walls, the undead army can't stop you from attacking. Andy Barrett had a big smile on his face.
"I won't be able to use that powerful power for a short time, I only have a mortal body. Pei Di shrugged helplessly, "If you give me a more perfect body, I can even use the holy power of the entire Ailan Continent to directly erase the existence of the Undead Legion!"
"Are you kidding?" said Andy Barrett, subconsciously skeptical.
"Since I went through the 'baptism of the soul', my connection with the Holy Force has changed every day, and I have a feeling... I can even mobilize all the divine forces of the universe if I want to. Pedi didn't have any joking expression, "But this body of mine simply can't withstand such power, and with uncontrolled power, very terrible things can happen." ”
"How can you strengthen your body. "Andy Barrett is fed up with this war and if there is a shortcut to end it, he will not hesitate to use it.
"The Holy Force is increasing the strength of my body every moment, and if you are willing to wait, maybe in a hundred years there will be this possibility. "But in a hundred years, I may just be a pile of loess." ”
"This joke isn't funny at all!" Andy Barrett frowned.
"Abandon those unrealistic ideas, powerful energy can not only destroy the undead legions, but also eliminate our existence, as evidenced by the explosion 10,000 years ago, which destroyed countless civilizations and tore a living continent apart. Pedi patted his cousin on the shoulder.
"I agree with His Majesty Pedi, the bitter lessons of history have taught us not to use any uncontrolled force lightly. Aethia stepped forward, "However, you can retain your power, for we still have a formidable enemy..., 'Order of Chaos' Ferrola, who may have completed the inheritance of ancient memories. ”
"I've seen her power. When Pedi heard Ferrola's name, her face immediately became serious, "It's an indescribable power, it's like... The end of the light. ”
"The end of the light?" Andy Barrett recalled the familiar phrase, "The end of the light is endless darkness!"
"Darkness and light are interdependent, so we can't completely wipe out the undead army, we can't really seal the evil energy, that's why darkness comes every once in a while... If the Legion of the Dead were not victorious in this war, the Continent of Ailan might fall into darkness for 10,000 years, and in 10,000 years... A new war will decide the fate of this world. "Aethia is like a prophet at the moment.
Church pastors often tell stories like this, but in their stories, the light can never fail. Andy Barrett now remembered his time at the Church of Divine Radiance a few hours later.
"But in reality, the triumph of evil over good is everywhere. Aetia looked at Andy Barrett, "So, we in the Elven Kingdom will take every war with the undead legion seriously, and we can give everything to stop the invasion of the undead legion." ”
"The question of good and evil is beyond our discussion. Pedi looked at the latest confrontation diagram marked by the staff officers on the map, and said, "If the undead army really retreats to the city wall, my plan will be half successful, and the next thing is to see the war between Feld City and the northern mountain forest." ”
"I've just gotten the news," Andy Barrett pointed to Fort Tillman, "the 300,000 troops of the Undead Legion, assembled in the eastern part of Fort Tillman, have advanced towards Feld City by the time their main forces have retreated to the defensive line of the walls. ”
"In other words, Enshi Ella has temporarily given up the plan to fight a decisive battle with our main force and is fully engaged in the battlefield of Feld City?" Pei Di looked at the battle situation on the map because of the constant deduction by Andy Barrett, "When will the follow-up troops of the Misha Kingdom arrive at the battlefield of Feld City." ”
"It will take at least three more days. Aetia answered the question.
Pedi nodded and fell silent, and after a long while, he suddenly raised his head to look at Andy Barrett, "Why are you still here, didn't I ask you to go and see what's going on with the orcs and dwarves?"
"The spatial node that directly reaches the Karen Territory has been destroyed, and now it can only be teleported to Tyre Town first, and preparations are still being made there, and it will take ten hours at the earliest. Andy Barrett was a little helpless.
"General!" an elven ranger captain approached, "Urgent information from General Thrandil's...", he approached and handed Etiah a copy of the military information and said, "Ferrora is leading her undead legion all the way south from Bertinburg, and its vanguard has reached the northwest territory of Feld. ”
"Does she really want to have a showdown with us?" Although Ferro did indeed go south as speculated, there was no joy in Pedy's eyes.
