Chapter 15: Countdown

City.

The rebellion of the Lord of the Clouds has put the Elrios forces in the Pure White City in a desperate situation.

With the exception of a few residents who were evacuated from the city gates, most of the ordinary people concentrated in the central areas of the city. Without the cover of the legendary caster, the soldiers of Elrios were powerless to withstand the undead frenzy of Okad.

Four or five Blue Ocean level mages who were still fighting barely blocked the main road. They are still waiting for more of their colleagues to join the resistance.

They are doomed to disappointment. Under the blockade of space, when the towering figure of Fusha City appeared, many mages chose to protect themselves.

Rumors are spreading.

"The Lord of Yunyong has betrayed the Dharma."

"The Lord of Yunyong is not the only traitor."

The nightmarish news made the mages' hearts continue to drop.

Did the missing colleague invest in Okad? Or have you been killed by Ocard's spies?

Some people even doubted the partners who fought side by side.

The countdown to the total collapse of morale on the part of the French powers has begun.

……

Female soldiers Allison and Hannah are fighting bloodily.

Lucky for them, the Lord of the Clouds had taken on a pretense of cover before betraying and cleared up the necromantic soldiers in their vicinity.

But that doesn't change the tide of the war.

Deliberately missed by Yun Yong, Tail then joined the street battle with the Okadian troops behind the necromantic soldiers.

It was a bloodthirsty army made up entirely of orcs and half-orcs. He was also one of Okad's most elite troops who followed Nicholas before the Civil War. Nicholas tasked them to be the "overseers" of the army of the undead.

"Drink!" Alison's heroic face was already covered in blood. She swung her sword desperately and stabbed it into the chest of an orc.

This is the fifth enemy soldier she's killed. But the enemy forces seemed endless.

Alison took a few steps back and leaned against a wall, gasping for air. There was already a gap in the standard long sword in his hand. Is it the weapon that finishes first, or is it yourself first-

"Hannah!"

Not far away, in the face of the attack of the two orcs, Hannah was already on her way.

Alison tried to help her friend, but an orc woman stood in front of her, smirking and swinging her axe, muttering something in an orc language she didn't understand.

"Not ...... yet"

At the last moment, Allison dodged sideways, avoiding the powerful axe of the orc. The axe slashed at the wall behind Alison, sending sparks.

"Die!"

Alison seized on the enemy's flaw and handed out her sword, piercing the orc's throat. The female orc made a strange sound from her mouth, and finally slowly softened.

Alison adjusted her breathing slightly, but saw the last thing she wanted to see.

Hannah...... No! ”

Hannah's sword stabbed one orc in the abdomen, but another orc's knife also struck Hannah in the chest.

Hannah let out a terrible scream. In the next second, the sound stopped abruptly. Seeing that his brother had been severely wounded by Hannah, the orc swung his sword and slashed at Hannah's neck.

Hannah's eyes widened and her head fell to the ground.

The orc muttered something as he grabbed Hannah's hair and lifted the head in his hand. In the past, he would have had to take this beautiful human chick back to camp and have a good time.

It's a pity that this time the speaker gave a death order, and anyone who stands in the way will be killed, and it is forbidden to waste time on meaningless things.

"Are you alright, brother?" He said in orc language, reaching out to his brother who had fallen at his side. Even in the bitter Okadian Civil War, his brother was never wounded, but who knew that the boat capsized at the hands of this little human female soldier.

Suddenly, the orc felt a chill in his vest.

Alison's eyes were red, and her sword pierced through the enemy's body.

The orc was killed instantly.

"Brother!" The orc who had been impaled through the abdomen by Hannah was seriously wounded, and when he saw that his brother had died before him, his expression was mixed with madness and hideousness, and he pounced on Alison.

Alison's stamina is on the verge of limit. Her arm was so numb that she didn't even have time to pull her sword out of her enemy's body and roll it to her side. The orc let out a piercing roar, and the tomahawk sliced through the stone pavement.

"Ah......h

Alison tried to stand up, but the orc threw her to the ground. The orcs don't even need a tomahawk, and if they are seriously injured, they are not as good as their own hands.

"Ah, uh."

The orc pinned Alison to the ground, and a raindrop of fists landed on Alison's face. Allison was dizzy.

"You, die, die." The wound in the orc's abdomen was still bleeding. He didn't care if he could survive anymore, as long as he could kill this human female soldier with his own hands.

His pincer-like green fingers grabbed Alison's neck.

"Uh-huh......"

Alison fell into a trance. Is that the end of it?

No. Can you still ......

Allison unleashed the last of her strength, breaking free of the orc, striking her opponent in the head with a hammer. The orc howled. Allison was given a chance to breathe, pressing her knees full force against the wound in his abdomen.

The orc rolled to the side, and immediately came up again. Alison also didn't have time to stand up, but her hand picked up a broad-bladed war knife that had fallen to the ground.

It was the last relic of another orc.

"Hah......!"

The blade flashed and slashed the orc's neck. Killed by his own brother's blade, the orc looked incredulous and slowly fell to the ground.

"Success...... ......"

Allison's sword propped up the ground and staggered to her feet. Every breath was accompanied by a strong tingling pain.

Spit out the broken teeth in your mouth. At his feet is Hannah's headless corpse.

I wish I could bury her, Alison thought sadly. But new enemy soldiers have come in.

How long can you hold on to it?

Dragging her scarred body, Allison gritted her teeth and raised her weapon.

……

on another street.

"Die for me!" Captain Tomman shouted.

The street has been largely emptied. Only a small part of the army of the undead passes through here, and even fewer remain here.

Even then, the number is more than a hundred.

Slash weapons don't work well against skeletons. Captain Tomman casually picked up a warhammer and rushed into the Necromantic array.

I've been chopped by myself for more than fifty -

Normal army losses of half should have collapsed long ago. These dead spirits are still holding themselves in the way of fear!

Compared to ordinary soldiers, the seasoned Toman regimental commander has overwhelming experience and strength. But in the face of such a large number of necromantic soldiers, Commander Tomman was helpless.

I really envy those mages and secret warriors......

He had already suffered two minor wounds, but he didn't seem to know it.

"Amy!" He called out his sister's name, "Where are you?" ”

---------

Outside the city.

The Lord of the Galaxy has turned into a galaxy that stretches for thousands of kilometers. The ice phoenix flapped its wings and flew into the galaxy.

"Giant liquid elemental creatures," the Prison Master scoffed, "stupid tactics." ”

"Can you trap him?" Mr. Kim frowned.

"If he's not a legendary spellcaster, I can even capture him." The warden said.

"Don't confuse 'astral elemental' with 'acid'." Mr. Kim said.

Close encounters with such a massive elemental lifeform can be fatal. And long-distance combat, which mages are better at, is easy to be dragged into a situation of attrition.

"Don't confuse me with a layman like you." The prison master disdains that there are six different kinds of acid elements in his "Divine Prison" alone.

He had long been dissatisfied with Chancellor Friedrich's title of "the strongest for special creatures". In the heart of the prison master, he is not only the strongest enemy in the cloud world, but also the strongest in subduing special lifeforms.

Just beware of the ice phoenix that merges into the galaxy. The Ice Phoenix itself is only a high-level combat power of the Blue Ocean, but it cannot be underestimated.

……

The Emperor smiled.

The Lord of the Galaxy has a will to die. The position is five against five.

There is no way back. Only by fighting everything can we get a glimmer of life.

The Armageddon in which most of the legendary spellcasters of the entire world participated, deciding the fate of the world.

…… Participating in war at the highest level should be the most brilliant moment of a soldier's life. How can you make a mage take the limelight?

"Ligenta," said the Emperor calmly, "prepare for the 'Buddha-figure coming.'" Your 'Buddha-figure Arrival' is not suitable for use in the center of the battlefield, and can lead one to the ...... Cloud Coast? ”

Dimi, Bina, and Lina are still near the Pure White City.

Even if he fought for his own life, he couldn't do it to Nicholas.

"Ah, no problem." Queen Lichenda said.

"Ministers should sacrifice themselves to protect Your Majesty." The diminutive prime minister's gaze was resolute. There must be something else that can be done, thought to the prime minister. A way to let His Majesty leave safely!

And Stewart had words in his mouth. He was doing his best to familiarize himself with the French Nation's Territorial Guards. If he can activate the protective array in time, then the French side will have a chance to win again.

The river incarnated by the Lord of the Galaxy swept over the five people on Okad's side. The prison master sneered, an ice-blue glow looming in his hand.

The galaxy that has been fully elementalized is very destructive, but its weakness is just as obvious. A single blow can incapacitate him.

The emperor saw all this. Galaxy's goal is simply too big. Someone has to help him attract attacks.

Dieterford pointed the "celestial sphere" in his hand to the sky.

Many ordinary soldiers are still fighting to the death. Let yourself join them.

"Stand between heaven and earth......"

The emperor's body was lit with the light of the secret ritual.

"'The Golden Rider'."

Dietford III finally resorted to his "Buddha-figure arrival".

On the banks of the galaxy, a giant with golden skin and silver armor suddenly appeared. Pale flames burned in the giant's eyes, and with a single step, he stood between the galaxy and the prison master.

The smile on the warden's face froze. The brilliance in his hands vanished. Although the galaxy is large, with the full cover of the giant that the emperor has turned into, it is difficult to hit directly.

"As an emperor, you actually use your body as a shield...... "The prison master gritted his teeth.

He didn't care about such a huge enemy, but while Nicholas blocked the space to prevent the enemy from escaping, it was quite inconvenient for his own people to bypass the "shield" to attack.

"I'm here to help you, François." The Emperor's Giant Voice Boomed.

One is a river, the other is a humanoid, and the two giant creatures with a monstrous momentum slaughter Nicholas's side.

"The Fight of the Trapped Beasts." Nicholas was expressionless.
