In the wee hours of the morning, the stars are lonely.

Wastelands, jungles, mountains, shrouded in a curtain of darkness.

At the exit reserved at the pass of the canyon, neat formations of columns, carrying sacks full of sand and dirt, carrying guns and ammunition, moved silently along the shadows of the city walls.

In the tent under the city wall, the dim candles were constantly flickering, and Qin Song and the witches were all silently staring at the sand table on the table.

This was the first time that the Blackstone Leader attacked, and it was also the first time that he showed strength.

Success, not failure.

Although Qin Song looked very calm, he could even say that he was calm. But in fact, he was also very nervous in his heart, he was just an ordinary person in his previous life, but now he has become a campaign commander, and he has no experience at all.

Setting up a defensive line, covering with long-range artillery fire, and using range to suppress was the best tactic he could come up with.

There was still some time before dawn, and hundreds of fighters were mobilized to use the rush to make sandbags and transport them to predetermined positions on the front line, ready to organize rudimentary bunkers.

Although I knew in my heart that this kind of fragile cover would not be able to block the onslaught of the knights at all, at least, it would bring some psychological comfort to those warriors.

Now, the biggest problem is the golden icon.

At the meeting to arrange tactics, Qin Song did not propose a specific strategy. Because he knew in his heart that once the artillery didn't work, then he could only rely on the divine power of the witches.

"Luna, Elena, you work in pairs. Be sure to pay attention to the emergency and support other witches at any time. ”

"Understood!"

Comparatively speaking, Luna's combat power is in the weakest gear. Elena has a good foundation, but because of the daytime battle, her strength is greatly reduced, and her only combat power is the Dark Boiler.

"Alice, Veronica, you work in pairs and try to stay behind the line......"

As the two main forces of logistics, Qin Song was not willing to let them take risks.

Under the candlelight, Alice's face flickered brightly and darkly, and she was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Qin, I'm going to the front." ”

"Alice. Leah was a little nervous: "It's safer for you to stay behind." ”

"Nope. Alice stood up, and the little face was full of determination: "I have my own weapons and my own strength, and I will protect myself." And no one knows the structure of the Wrath Dawnbreaker better than I do, and no one can deal with any possible glitches in an emergency. It's just me!Qin, Liya, I understand that you are all for my good. ”

"But this time, I want to go to war. Alice seems to have been prepared for this: "I discussed with Veronica that we are the best candidates to operate the Dawnbreaker of Wrath, and to use it to its fullest potential." ”

"Definitely. Veronica nodded: "Qin, we don't have enough ammunition. And my ability will alleviate this difficulty. I believe in Alice, and I believe she is the best person to manipulate the Dawnbreaker of Wrath. ”

"Qin. Alice's eyes flashed with light, and she looked at Qin Song expectantly: "My Radiant Fist Glove has been improved many times, and there is a secret weapon of my own design. Believe me, I'm well prepared for this day. ”

"Moreover, we cannot fail and cannot afford to fail. I don't want to leave any regrets at a critical moment, and I don't want to be locked in the house, and it is my responsibility to let my sisters take risks and protect the Black Stone Collar. ”

Qin Song and Liya glanced at each other, Alice's decision confirmed their conversation at that time, she had been working silently and bravely shouldering the responsibility.

Qin Song nodded lightly, and Liya also helplessly overflowed with a wry smile.

"Alice, since you've decided, go for it. Qin Song didn't stop her, and nodded gently: "No matter what happens, we will be by your side." ”

"Hmm!" Alice smiled.

"Then I'll arrange it. Qin Song pondered for a while, then pointed to the sand table with his finger: "The power of the Dawnbreaker of Wrath is powerful, and it can be regarded as one of our hole cards. It has a longer range, but is actually bulky. So, I was on a high ground on the flank of the line of defense, and let Mr. Robles build a firing fortress as fast as he could. ”

"Linda, Veronica, Alice, this fortress is your position. ”

"Understood!"

"Remember, our main goal is the Golden Idol. However, if the Wrath Daybreaker does not work, the target will be immediately changed to the main cavalry. ”

"And the worst-case scenario!" Qin Song's tone became solemn: "If any means of attack don't work against the Golden Icon, you must not attack blindly. At the necessary moment, positions can be abandoned. ”

"Lia, your six-legged pony has the most power and is more familiar with the way cavalry fights. Then the command of the battle front is handed over to you, and you have the right to decide when to fire, when to attack, and even when to retreat. ”

"Understood. Leah nodded heavily.

"Okay, now that the task is arranged, then let's ......"

Before Qin Song's words fell, a shout suddenly came from outside the tent: "Get out of the way, I want to see Liya, see Your Excellency, get out of the way, get out of the way." ”

"Hunter?"

Leah looked a little surprised, in fact, when the decision to attack was made, and all the witches were transferred to the front line, she didn't bring Xia Qiya with her.

The reason is a bit funny, in order to regain her self-esteem, Xia Qiya privately asked Qin Song for help. However, when she activated her divine power and regained her self-confidence, she didn't actually say that she also believed in Krem. Because she felt that she was begging for divine power, she could barely defeat Elena during the day, and she was a little embarrassed on her face, so she kept concealing that she realized it, and planned to wait until she was a little more powerful before revealing the news.

So, so far, no one knows that she changed sides and became a follower of Krem.

Moreover, she was not a citizen of the Blackstone Collar, and Leah felt that she longed for freedom and had no obligation to protect the Blackstone Collar, and she did not want to force her, so she left her in the Blackstone Collar.

The guards outside did not stop Xia Qiya, but I saw her dressed in a strong suit, carrying a heavy sword on her back, and she opened the curtain and got in.

"Hunter?"

The witches all looked at her in amazement.

"You guys are really not funny enough to not inform me of such an important matter. Xia Qiya pulled a stool with her hand, sat down, rubbed her thighs and looked dissatisfied: "I took the initiative to ask Luna's father, and he told me." ”

"Hunter, you don't actually use it. Liya was slightly moved in her heart: "It is our responsibility to protect the Black Stone Collar. ”

"You're all my good friends, good sisters, aren't you?" Xia Qiya glared angrily, "I said I didn't want to fight the orcs." But I can't wait to beat those knights. When I was in the Colosseum before, I was the fiercest of these bastards. ”

Elena chuckled, "Hunter, in fact, Leah is also good for you. These knights are no ordinary knights, and even I am no match for them. Oh, it's daytime. ”

"Do you think I'm an ordinary person?" Xia Qiya pointed to her nose, "I've also seen big scenes." ”

"Alas, now, I don't act, I have a showdown. Xia Qiya straightened her chest, and her face was full of pride: "I...... Shakia Warsong is also a believer in the majestic Krem. ”

"Huh?"

Everyone was taken aback and looked at each other, except for Qin Song's lips with a smile.

"Shakia, is this your real name?"

"No, how is that possible?"

"Ahh Is it strange that a warrior as good as me is favored by the gods?"

"Uh......"

Everyone was obviously still a little unconvinced, but Elena suddenly said, "I believe it." ”

"That's right!" Xia Qiya nodded heavily: "In my dream, the majestic Krem is a giant sitting on the throne of light, with eyes like the sun, and he has six arms, each holding a different weapon. I assure you, his divine name is different from all of you. ”

A pair of curious eyes looked over.

Xia Qiya cleared her throat and said slowly: "The constant light of dreams, the master of destruction and creation, the one who dwells in the Divine Seat of Light, the majestic Krem. ”

"Hunter, no, Xia Qiya, do you mean it?" Riya's face was full of surprise, she knew Xia Qi the best, and she knew her background and her original beliefs.

"Leah, I'm sorry to hide it from you for so long. Xia Qiya had an apologetic look on her face: "About my name, and my conversion." And you, Elena, Linda, Alice, Luna, Veronica, during my time with you, I felt care that I had never felt before. I thought that freedom was the most precious thing, and I thought that I would eventually leave you. ”

"However, I found out that I was wrong. Xia Qiya's eyes flashed with sparkling light, and during the time they got along, these girls warmed her heart with their actions.

"I used to be very confused, and I felt that the world had nothing to do with me as an alien. Even the gods I originally believed in were nothing more than wishful thinking. ”

"Until I dreamed of the great god. Xia Qiya had a look of memory on her face: "There are many similarities with your experience, and every word of the gods hits my heart and clears my confusion. It turned out that all I had been pursuing was selfish freedom, which bound me like a cocoon. ”

"Until the gods asked me why I was fighting. ”

Xia Qiya took a deep breath and clenched the hilt of the sword hard: "At that moment, I understood, all the confusion and worries dissipated. I told the gods that I was willing to fight to protect the smiles of my friends. ”

There was a brief silence in the tent, and everyone seemed to be infected by her emotions.

In the end, Qin Song slowly stood up: "Xia Qiya Battle Song, welcome to the Star Temple." ”
