Chapter 591: The Promised Land (26)
When she returned to the camp, it was already dawn, and the walls of the Hearthvale were still strong, but they were as silent as death, and the smell of death was everywhere, and the scorched smoke rose into the sky, the last respect for those who died in battle.
Loria frowned and jumped off Ahri's back, if she didn't leave, maybe she would have lost a lot of people, and if she didn't decide to invade Hearthvale, she would still have a lot of deaths, but that had nothing to do with her...... There are not so many ifs in the world, and the pursuit of inner peace will probably only lead to death together, and Sylvanas's teachings have always been useful, and she has been able to face endless contradictions and sins that must be carried.
"How many have you saved?"
"Six. ”
"How many have chosen to change?"
"Three. In a heavily guarded, airtight tent, Clement answered Loria's question with her head down, three corpses in front of her.
Loria sighed deeply, took the dagger handed by Clement, cut her wrist, and dripped blood on the corpse in turn, her face became more and more pale, she stopped the bleeding quickly, and had to grit her teeth and cut herself twice.
She didn't have that much blood to spare, and she didn't have the right to decide who could be resurrected, so the eight men filled out a questionnaire full of strange questions, and they answered in the affirmative to a trivial and illogical question - would you be willing to give up all your beliefs in order to defeat the undead, even if it was against the will of nature and the Light.
"How's it going?" Loria changed out of her tattered clothes and didn't bother to take a proper shower, but handed the comb to Clement.
"The pursuing squad has returned. Clement held a comb in one hand and pinched her nose tightly in the other, and her voice sounded very strange, "There are no casualties, and the fleeing enemy soldiers have lost their fighting spirit and surrendered easily." Fireplace Valley hasn't moved for a long time, and they seem intent on holding out to the end, do you have any orders?"
"Leave them alone. Loria thought for a moment and said, not noticing that Clement's hand holding her hair was shaking, "Set up your defenses, although it is unlikely, but still prevent the enemy from breaking through again." ”
"Yes, Miss. ”
"What are you doing!"
"You look like you have a bug in your hair!
"Did you see it with your nose?"
……
At noon, the big fox lazily lay on the ground basking in the sun, watching a few mages not far away keep the frozen old man fresh with ice magic, it lazily stretched its limbs, yawned, changed its posture and continued to rest, but there was a sudden noisy sound on the city wall in the distance, the camp suddenly exploded, people shouted for the enemy attack and ran around, the beaver who did not want to be disturbed buried his head deeper, but found that the hair on his belly was torn off a lot by the pink hair in the previous fight, thinking that that the matter was not over, God knows what kind of abuse it will suffer, it no longer has the heart to sleep, stands up and turns in circles anxiously。
Clement led the soldiers in a line with a full-face helmet, and the quartermaster carried bundles of arrows out of the warehouse to deliver oil cans to the freshly built trebuchet.
Knowing his life and death, Ethan Lien was hung on a cross with wheels, and he was to be used to demoralize the enemy once they attacked.
When the pale-faced Loria appeared with a parasol, the crowd erupted in cheers, and their leader personally captured the two enemy chieftains!
"Long live Miss Mograini!"
"For the Light, for Justice, for Loria!"
Uh-huh, Loria held up her little head, enjoying the feeling of being embraced by everyone, who said she had no majesty?
Wait, how is Your Excellency the Attorney General missing an arm, and his head is at an abnormal angle!
"That's it when it arrived!" Seeing Loria's stern gaze, the soldier guarding Ethanlien turned his head in a panic and pointed at the big fox in the distance.
Ahri shook her head, turned and aimed her ass at Loria.
Who is to blame? Who has been saying hurry up, hurry, dragging people all the way, and the head is still there, which is already the credit of its big fox.
Tsk, Loria suddenly felt that the sun was too strong and decided to hide in the shade.
She didn't know anything about commanding the army in battle, so she didn't want to get in the way at this time.
……
Anavalon rushed up the city wall with his men, and when Tyran fled, he and his men were imprisoned, and it was not long ago that he found an opportunity to stun the guards, and gathered his few men to rush to the wall, and he was able to come here easily, thanks to a considerable number of soldiers who were either groggy or vomiting up and down, many of them left their posts without permission, and they did not know where to hide, the whole castle's defenses were on the verge of collapse, and the few people on duty also looked depressed about the imminent disaster.
Hearing the movement, a group of prosecutors and soldiers quickly followed, shouting and shouting.
The two sides confronted each other, and they were about to fight, but a neat roar suddenly erupted from under the city wall...... Long live Miss Mograini.
The cheers that overshadowed everyone's voices continued for a while before they ceased, and Anavalon yelled with a dark face, "What am I doing? I should ask you what you are doing, and do you want to carry out your stupid purge when the soldiers are in the city!"
"How dare you! Holy ...... Holy Light ...... Attorney General!" A certain prosecutor was incoherent with anger for a while, it was not that he was stupid, but no one had ever dared to resist like this, even the thorny Anavalon, who was usually dissatisfied and never said anything.
"You fools, no one can escape! We're all going to die!" Anavalon angrily pointed at the army under the city, he had already figured out what had happened before, "Unplanned sorties, stupid! Attack when blocked, shrink back, stupid! Now that the enemy is ready, look at us again! Put away your stupid tricks, or we will all be burned at the stake!"
The prosecutors are not stupid, and now they have to leave the defense to this fanatic who is good at the art of war...... When Anavaron began to issue orders, they simply glared at him viciously while nodding to his men to cooperate with his actions.
When the siege is lifted, when the Attorney-General returns with the head of Tyran Fordin, it will be the death of this group of traitors.
The crisis will pass, and they will still have a huge numerical advantage.
Isn't it?
…… After a long time without the enemy breaking through, Clement approached the head of the Hearth, and she confidently stepped into the range of her crossbow, the armor on her body was thick enough.
"Stop, soldier, what about your honor?"
A man stopped the crossbowman from attacking her, then poked his head out from behind the chopping wall to observe her.
"Anavaron?"
"Tessa?"
"I've changed my name. ”
"Ha, don't you want to marry me so much?" )
