Marshal Mencius is gone, but the fortress in the clouds is still there, which of course does not mean that he has abandoned Master Valon Ofant, who is still maintaining the magic circle. In fact, before leaving, he made a special trip.

"There is no need for a fortress in the clouds to continue to be maintained. Come with me back to Olaheran. ”

"How about withdrawing, can you hold it?" The other party was still sitting in the center of the circle, and replied without raising his head when he heard the words.

The marshal was speechless. He wanted to say that Olaheran was an aerial fortress that the Federation had spent more than a dozen generations and hundreds of years to build, an unsinkable floating warship to defend Elichar, equipped with a near-perpetual magic barrier, equipped with hundreds of magic crystal cannons and magic towers, including the Federation's Zhenguo artifact, the strongest and largest magic crystal cannon ever known as the "Pupil of the Sun God". The range can reach hundreds of miles, and even the Nahibia and Orucello cannot withstand a single shot.

However, he knew that he would not be able to hold on to his defeat. With the defeat of this group of terrified remnants like lost dogs, even if the mythical and legendary spiral fortress Lerensack City was thrown to him, he would definitely not be able to defend it.

"Well, your words ......"

"You go first. The cartographers of the Ovant family and the descendants of Oluseiro Belencaster have some final grievances to understand. Besides, if I stay here, I can help you break it off a little. ”

Marshal Mencius sighed silently, and without any more pretentious words, he quickly left with his people.

It had only been more than twenty minutes since the marshal left, and Lu Xi's rose banner also appeared at the foot of the hill. At this time, everything on that hill was within the coverage of the guide gun.

Varon Ovant straightened his robes, picked up the last half of the bottle, and poured it all into it with a clatter, before he picked up his staff and stood up.

"Master, we ......" the rest of the mages said tremblingly.

"Go down the mountain and surrender. The disciples of Aurucello will not be embarrassed by you. He said.

The mages looked at each other, saluted each other, and ran down the hill with their hands raised, shouting "I surrender!" I'm my own! I'm Master Lu Xi's dog! "Yunyun, tsk, it's obviously a group of spellcasters, but the words of the ruling class in the upper echelons of the Federation......

It's like a pack of dogs. Varon Ovant sneered, but then laughed self-deprecatingly. Why don't you look like a dog now?

He walked to the hillside, and the vast circle behind him lost its magic power and collapsed in an instant. If it weren't for the huge elements that remained in this place still beating, others might have thought that nothing had happened.

"My name is Valon Ovant, the last descendant of the cartographer's family. Where are the contemporary heirs of the Rainbow Rose? Where is the heir of Oluseiro Berencaste? He looked at the crowd beneath the Rose Banner, searching for his target, and soon saw the young man in the Nebula robes and the World Tree scepter in his hand.

"The fortunes and future of the Ovant family are cut off in the hands of Oluseiro Berencaster, and now, I am the only caster of the cartographer, and you, as his successor, are not prepared to let this all start and end with your own hands?" He burst out laughing, and a strong wind rose behind him, and his robes puffed up in the wind, and lightning and thunder roared through it, as if he had hidden in his hand the eye of a typhoon that had been caught in the thunderclouds. On the hilltop platform behind him, countless pieces of earth rose from the ground, spontaneously combusting without fire. The brown dirt turned into flaming lava, which then condensed into countless puppets that gathered into an army of lava. More lava seemed to be kneaded and shaped by invisible thugs, condensing into a fortress formed by lava.

"That's what I spent forty years making! Heir of Orucello, I'm waiting for you here! ”

"Teacher......" Akdina looked at Lu Xi nervously. With her current ability, of course, she can see what kind of power the opponent's lava-formed city fortress army formation needs, and she can guess the opponent's current strength. In normal times, she wouldn't be worried that the teacher wouldn't be able to win, but now, the teacher is blind after all, isn't he?

If the teacher really wants to enter the battle, I will stop him no matter what, and if I can't stop him, I will call Sister Sehireu over. Thinking of this, little Dina had already opened the flap of the tactical guide with one hand.

However, Lu Xi tilted his head, revealing a puzzled look: "So, who is this old man?" ”

"Uh, this...... I seem to have heard of the name of the Ovant family, when did it? Colonel Grimmar's eyes narrowed.

Little Dina shook her head stiffly.

"I remember the teacher mentioned it to me before, well, once when we were eating, we were talking about it. He didn't pay attention to what he said, and I didn't take it to heart. Lu Xi pondered it seriously and felt that since the old man didn't say it too seriously, it wasn't too important.

"In front of me, it's not allowed to have such a pretending old man, so bomb him." Lu Xi said to Grant.

Villager A nodded, turned around, and shook the red flag in his hand vigorously to his subordinates. In the next second, 10,000 cannons rang out.

The billowing smoke and flames drowned the last caster of House Ovant, and the lava army and fortress he had created fell apart like the fortress in the clouds that had fallen apart minutes earlier.

This little episode did not make Lu Xi pay much attention, compared to the optical trajectory drawn by the fleet behind him in the eastern sky, it was much more gorgeous.

The soldiers went up the hill and found the remains of the old mage who claimed to be the "last spellcaster of the Ovant family", as well as his staff and magic weapon, but alas, it was not the ancient lord's banner. Thinking about it, you also know that when Marshal Mencius retreated, it was impossible for even the brilliant artifact to fall on the battlefield.

In short, after this battle, there is no need to be too anxious for the time being. Lu Xi found an open place on the top of the mountain and sat down to rest a little.

One hour, the remnants of the aristocratic army, who had been driven away and fled to the edge of Dongmen Island, found that they could not find ships and flying beasts at all, so they could only kneel and beg to surrender. From then on, the Battle of the Eastern Gate of Orso ended, and the battle of the two sides, with a total strength of more than 100,000 troops, was completely divided in half a day.

The aristocratic coalition army left more than 10,000 corpses on the battlefield, and more than 40,000 defectors and prisoners, so that the number of people who could escape from the battlefield with Marshal Mencius was only seven or eight thousand. As for Lu Xi's side, only about a thousand dead and less than three thousand wounded were paid.

By the time this data was reported, it was already tea time. Lu Xi, who had his eyes closed, listened to the report while drinking tea and eating the fruits and snacks that Cesil had just brought over.

The vague figure, barely able to capture, was hidden in the shadows of the setting sun, and uttered a whisper that only Lu Xi and Sesilyu could hear: "Aser, Master Hedos Abbo was killed by a stray arrow while he was just fighting. ”

"yes, that's a shame! This is also the only senior general of our army who has died in battle, and he must enjoy the treatment of a state funeral. I have to tell the wind that the promise of a seat on the board of directors of the Standard Shipping Association cannot be changed, so let it be handed over to his son. I remember his eldest son was twenty years old, right? ”

"Yes, Aser, Mr. Sereha Abbo is twenty years old, intelligent and hardworking, but he has no talent for spellcasting, so he has been taking care of the family business with the help of his retainers, and most importantly in managing the family shipyard."

"Then tell Mr. Sereha that the establishment of new pilot shipyards in Neosfia and Illist will require a lot of money, and that I can exchange my family land for cash from the new federal government, or I can mortgage it to the Bank of Saint-Mullins or the Maritime Credit Bank. In addition, his sixteen-year-old second son heard that he was quite talented, so he was ready to study in Dugu Castle. He has a bright future ahead of him. ”

Sesiluk has already begun to record. Strictly speaking, these belong to Lu Xi's "private affairs", but who calls our student union president Miss is not just Lu Xi's identity as an adjutant.

"Besides, thank you, Angie." Lu Xi said again.

Sesil rolled his eyes covertly, thinking that your "hard work" is really too much to imagine. Luckily, there were no outsiders there.

After the Star Spirit Assassin retired and disappeared, Lu Xi also put down the teacup in his hand, closed his eyes and turned his face to the west.

Sehiraeus also looked over there, knowing that it was where Elichar was, but it was also in the direction of the fortress of Olaheran.

"So, our next step is to capture Olaheran, right? The noble gate valve has been in operation there for hundreds of years, and it is indeed stronger than the city of Octalia. ”

"Compared to it, both Daroshul and Octalia are just small dirt enclosures of rural landowners." Lu Xi smiled: "But, why do I have to attack him? More than 80 years ago, when Nasibia attacked Elichar, he ignored it. ”

At that time, Oraheran's defender was Lieutenant General Gwent of the Wilambart family, and he remained neutral until Nahibia entered Elichar. Sesilio wanted to say this, but after thinking about it more closely, he realized that there was really no need for his side to storm the fortress.

"So, I've never understood the point of those gatekeeper nobles putting such a fortress armed to the teeth in the capital. Could it be that the citizens of Elichar will feel more secure and therefore more supportive of their rule? ”

"Maybe it's because I'm more insecure, so I have to support it." Sesilek tract.

“…… Well, my Sesilaeus has really grown up! ”

"Thank you, but I really can't be happy when you praise me for this." The girl sighed helplessly, because she knew that Lu Xi was really blind, so she didn't even bother to roll her eyes.

"No, I'm referring to ...... in another sense. Heck, don't just be casual about domestic violence just because I'm blind? In addition, Sesilu, you actually understand, doesn't it mean that you have really grown? Whether it's the body or the mind, uh, okay, okay, get down to business. Lu Xi faked a dry cough: "Then, please relay the following orders." First, the corps of Major General Asterey and Major General Pascal was stationed on Dongmen Island and was responsible for guarding all the surrendered troops. ”

Sesilio also put away his staff and began to record.

"Second, all the infantry of the Fourth Army Corps is temporarily stationed on Skybridge Island for defense, and continues to be controlled by Colonel Grimmar."

Seychelle glanced at Lu Xi deeply, bit his lip, but did not speak, lowered his head and continued to record.

"Colonel Valerius and Lieutenant Grant took command of all the cavalry and half the artillery, and set out with the fleet to set up an artillery position on the island of It, near Olaheran. I've put the parts for Gustav II and III in the transport, and I'll have them installed by the Legion Technicians right away. If you find an enemy in the fortress who wants to show your head, or is about to open the Pupil of the Sun God, then give me a hard blow, anyway, I have no interest in the antique that will cost the Sage an hour with a single shot. Of course, if the enemy is more honest, then it is enough to keep the siege going. ”

Seyleus did not make any comments. There are hundreds of large and small guide guns and magic crystal cannons in the fleet, nearly 10,000 battleship stormtroopers, and thousands of elite air cavalry and wingman guerrillas, which are enough to suppress the fortress defenders and establish a solid artillery position. She could even be sure that until the engineers took the two cannons, the enemies inside would not be able to show their heads.

"Third, there should be a greater movement tonight, so that all the officers of the army are ready to pacify the soldiers and suppress the prisoners of war."

Sesilyu raised his head suddenly, and was about to say something, but Lu Xi suddenly said, "Then, let Brother Krell drive the Aurora over to pick me up." As for Sesilu, you take little Dina back to the island of Chixia where we camped before, and Nanoka and Fett need your protectors! Saleliel should be there soon, too. ”

“…… So, this time, are you ready to go alone again? ”

"I've never been alone. Nanoka and Fett's long-distance support is waiting for the rest of my friends in Elichar. As for you, whether or not you can make Nanoka and Fit's circle run smoothly is the key to success or failure, and on this side, you are the only one who can do this kind of thing...... It's just that you may face what you don't want, and I hope you don't blame me when the time comes. ”

"You've talked so far, what more can I complain about? In fact...... I've had a lot of speculation these days. If you want to talk about psychological preparation, you already have it in general, probably. Sesilio took the initiative to step forward, hugged Lu Xi hard, and buried his head in his shoulder.

She showed a smile that almost burst out crying, but Lu Xi couldn't understand it at all, and could only feel the deep affection in the girl's words at this time.

"I've always been a stupid girl, and since I was a kid, I really didn't know what was right. However, although you can make me angry every time, I always prove right every time. Now that I have given myself to you, I can only do what is in front of me and then ...... Right here, wait until you get back. ”
