Chapter 744: Pacify
The inside and outside of the Cologne fortress were in shambles, with firelight, fights, shouts of escape, screams, and countless voices converging into a torrent of noise that soared into the sky.
"General. A bloodied adjutant approached the guard, his eyes red from over-engagement, and he looked like a demonic beast that had been devoured by a man, and there was something indescribably terrifying. However, in his eyes, with a trace of lingering exhaustion, he came to the guard's side, saluted a standard military salute, and said loudly, "General, the tide of demonic beasts has receded, and the demonic beasts that have broken into the city have also been completely eliminated, please instruct the general." ”
Glancing at the adjutant, the guard nodded, at this moment, his body was also full of bloodstains, even he couldn't tell who the blood was, and what he held in his other hand was the combat knife he used to command the battle, and the originally sharp blade had also been cut out, obviously, this former sharp weapon had been completely scrapped.
His eyes swept around, and after a long time, the guard general said in a deep voice, "Let the brothers of the Guards Battalion clean up the battlefield, and the other units will return to the camp to rest, and the casualties will be counted before tonight." After speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for the adjutant to leave.
Hearing the guard's words, the adjutant was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of grief flashed on his face, but he did not turn to leave.
The guard also noticed the adjutant's strange appearance, frowned slightly, looked at the adjutant suspiciously, and asked, "What's the matter?
There was a hint of hesitation on the adjutant's face, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"What's the matter? Tell me something!" the guard general also noticed the adjutant's strange appearance at the moment, and a trace of bad premonition came to his heart, and asked urgently.
"General. The adjutant's eyes suddenly wet, and two tears spilled out of the corners of his eyes, running down his cheeks, blackened by the smoke of gunpowder, and two clearly visible tear streaks were drawn on his face.
"What do you mean, what's wrong?" the guard rushed to the adjutant with an arrow step, grabbed the adjutant's shoulder, and the somewhat tattered military uniform was grabbed by him and made a "bang" sound.
"Generals, major generals and brothers of all the guards battalions are ...... All...... They are all martyred!" After finishing speaking, the adjutant's tears could no longer be stopped, dripping down his cheeks, he was an old subordinate who had followed the guard for decades, and the son of the guard was grown up by him, and the relationship between the two was no less than that of his own father and son, at this moment, the sadness in his heart was no worse than that of the guard.
The guard shook his body, but fortunately he supported his body with the blunt knife in his hand in time.
After a while, the guard retracted his gaze looking at the sky, sighed, and said slowly, "Martyrdom is the best destination for our soldiers, we should be happy for them, and arrange for the cavalry battalion to clean up the battlefield." The guard patted the adjutant on the shoulder and walked towards the battlement, at this moment, the rising sun stretched his back a little slender, at this moment, the back of the guard looked so old and lonely and tall and straight.
"Yes!" the adjutant saluted the guard's back with a standard military salute before turning to leave.
In a short time, the fire in the city has gradually been extinguished, and the burning ladder outside the city has to wait for it to be extinguished before it can be dealt with, otherwise, not to mention that ordinary soldiers can't get close, even the second or third level masters dare not approach easily.
The black smoke slowly rose, drifting over the entire battlefield, the sound of fighting gradually faded, and there were fewer and fewer remaining demonic beasts, and the morning sun sprinkled on the earth, putting a layer of gold on all the places that could be seen, and it was another day.
Many of the residents who had just left their homes knelt down in the direction of the imperial capital, and they worshipped the ruler of the empire, the wise and martial Emperor of the Holy Spirit, because of his leadership, they could be saved from the doom of being abused by demonic beasts. After the worship, many people spontaneously came to the city to help the soldiers clean up the battlefield, and the stonemasons' union in the city has begun to organize stonemasons to repair the city walls damaged by the monsters, and everything is in order.
"It's over. At this moment, Jingchen had been taken to the city by Amandron, and was being supported by Yue Yanran, slowly walking towards the station of Zeus Academy in the city. Stopping in front of the road, Jingchen turned his head and glanced at the corpses lying on the city wall again. Even though many people didn't know each other, he silently prayed for them. Of course, there are countless monster corpses here, each of which is like a small mountain, and it will take several people to remove them.
With a long sigh, Jingchen turned around, Yue Yanran supported him, followed behind the Zeus Academy team, and slowly walked towards the station.
Along the way, many residents who saw them would take the initiative to get out of the way, with a faint trace of gratitude in their eyes, and all the residents knew in their hearts that if it weren't for these people's sacrifice of life, they would have become rotten meat in the belly of the demonic beast.
The trainees dragged their tired bodies through the wide, but somewhat rugged streets. The streets of Cologne Fortress are exceptionally well-built, and although they are unusually spacious, they are not as regular as in other cities, but rather have a rugged feel. This is also the mainstream construction method of military fortresses on the continent at present, especially the fortresses used to defend against Warcraft, which are generally built in this way, which can greatly delay the speed of Warcraft wreaking havoc in the city, and can also minimize the impact on the army's actions.
For example, tonight's beast tide, if it weren't for this rugged road that stopped the demonic beast's charging route, I'm afraid that the destruction of the city would be many times higher than now.
The Zeus Academy group was led back to the station by Armandron, and many of the students who had withdrawn in advance had prepared food and water for them under the arrangement of the instructor, so that they could not only satisfy their hunger, but also take a comfortable bath to relieve their fatigue. The idea is very good, but unfortunately, these students are too tired, hastily grab food, eat some of it, and fall asleep one by one, regardless of whether the blood stains will rub on the bedding.
After eating, Jingchen gently patted Yue Yanran's back and said softly, "Go back and have a good rest, you haven't closed your eyes all night, and you're tired." ”
Yue Yanran nodded obediently, her eyes stayed on Jingchen's face, and she asked a little uneasily, "Chen, are you okay?"
Seeing Yue Yanran's gaze, Jingchen's heart moved, and a fiery feeling suddenly surged into his heart, but he still suppressed that impulse, smiled slightly, and said, "Look at me, isn't this good?
The two slowly walked to the door of the magic professional station, Jingchen waved his hand at Yue Yanran, and watched Yue Yanran's background disappear into the station. Jing Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold, just now, just now, just when Hewitt's body was detonated, something fell not far from him. It was a very ordinary spar, and Jingchen didn't care about it originally. But there was a small dot on the spar that was very close to him, and when Yue Yanran came to help him, the small dot of light and the big dot symbolizing the location of the spar actually gathered together.
Hewitt actually had something on his body that could detect Yue Yanran's location, even if Jingchen was slow to react, he could see the strangeness of this matter, but he didn't say anything to Yue Yanran, but just took advantage of leaning on Yue Yanran to pull a button-sized thing from the corner of her school uniform. If he hadn't known that Yue Yanran had a tracking device on her body, Jingchen would have thought that this gadget was a substitute button, but now it seems that there are faint energy fluctuations in it, which is obviously not as simple as a button.
"Teacher, what do you think about this matter?" Jingchen asked in a deep voice.
"I'm afraid that there are already ghosts in your Zeus Academy, and this little girl should have been calculated. Rios said slowly.
