Chapter 108: First Acquaintance with Ivey

Armed with the token and mounted on their horses, Wright and the others followed the soldiers Joe assigned to lead them to the second line of defense.

By the time the northern border wall had been fighting for eight hours, the corpses of the undead had flooded the gates that Ivy was guarding, and had piled up small hillsides elsewhere in the wall.

More undead climbed the walls along the mountain of corpses.

The equipment and supplies on the city wall have been exhausted, and all that remains is hand-to-hand combat.

A soldier stabbed a spear into the head of an undead, and when he drew his spear, he looked up to see an endless stream of undead spirits in the spot, seemingly endless......

"Woo!!boom!!" A wooden barrel filled with green viscous liquid fell from the sky.

Countless barrels followed.

The barrels smashed against the walls and fell apart.

The concentrated liquid inside the barrel turns into a green mist the moment it comes into contact with the air.

The soldier accidentally contaminated with the fog began to dizzy, vomited, and finally slowly lay on the ground and lost his life.

But it didn't take long for the soldiers who had just died to stand up slowly.

They didn't continue attacking the undead, but they screamed and pounced on their comrades...

"It's the plague catapults! The regular army of the undead has finally appeared!"

One of Ivey's lieutenants said to her.

"Without priests and mages, we would not be able to fight these plagues. The order was given, leaving 5,000 people behind, and the rest of the people withdrew from the side wall and entered the second line of defense. Ivey ordered.

Where have the priests and mages gone at this critical time?

The answer is: the Magic Hub!

The Lich King has been coveting this place for a long time, how could he pass up this perfect opportunity in front of him!

The archmages who had created the defensive array gathered all the mages, warlocks, and priests in the country who could use magic to come to their aid.

Now, the defensive array was complete, and the outside of the magic hub was shrouded in a layer of magical defense suspended with intricate magic patterns.

Inside the Magic Hub, only a withered corpse with its mana drained remains......

The five archmages sat down slowly, facing north.

Slowly, it turned into stone sculptures.

Ivy wanted to stay with 5,000 soldiers, but the adjutant next to her secretly changed her order.

The order he sent out was: after he led 5,000 soldiers to break, the commander would evacuate with the remaining soldiers.

Ivy is angry, and she's asking the lieutenant why he changed his orders.

The adjutant smiled and said, "Your Highness, I can die here, but you can't die yet." ”

Ivy was silent, her heart filled with bitterness at this moment.

The adjutant gave the other lieutenants and guards a look, and then led 5,000 soldiers who volunteered to leave behind.

Of the 100,000 soldiers on the first line of defense, there are now less than 30,000 left in just eight hours.

There are not only reasons for taking the initiative, but also reasons for the lack of mages and priests.

It wasn't until the end that the Lich King's undead regular army was dispatched that they chose to evacuate on their own initiative.

Thinking that more than 200,000 soldiers are about to lose their lives.

"Is it really worth the sacrifice?"

Even a warrior as determined and faithful as Ivy could not help but think so, let alone other ordinary soldiers.

However, having come this far, we can't just sacrifice in vain.

"But do you really want to drag those four countries into this quagmire together?" said kind-hearted Ive.

But without the help of Shikoku, then Elfros would be a paradise for the undead in the future.

After several hours of marching at full speed, Ivey and his party finally came to the second line of defense.

The second line of defense was built in a canyon flanked by impassable mountains, and even if the undead were able to cross it, only a few, and besides, they were more accustomed to pushing all the way.

And beyond here, there will be a plain of horses, and the city of Istanbul is not so much the last fortress as the last tomb.

As soon as Ivey entered the interior of the defensive line, the soldiers were immediately ready for battle.

5,000 soldiers, give them 2 to 3 hours at most, under the onslaught of the terrible undead regular army, they have no strength to resist after the break.

Ivy stood on the high platform, looking at the soldiers below whose morale had obviously dropped, she still spoke:

"Soldiers, get ready. The onslaught of the undead is coming, and all we can do is kill a few more undead on the battlefield and die on the battlefield. ”

The soldiers were silent, and morale was further depressed.

"Your Royal Highness, my royal brother, Kai Tyrison. Do you know where he went?" asked Ivy to the soldiers below.

The military formation remembered the sound of "buzzing" discussion, of course they didn't know where Kai went, but they had some doubts in their hearts, and now that Ivey asked directly, they couldn't suppress it anymore and started to discuss.

"He's gone alone to the shadows of the north to challenge the Lich Kingβ€”" Ivy said in as calm as she could, suppressing her grief.

The "buzzing" discussion suddenly disappeared, and the silence in the military formation was terrifying.

Ivy continued: "He said that the sins he had borne were too great and that only death could purify the sins that filled his body. He was worried about the common people, about you, until the moment before he left. ”

"Do we want to lose his face? Don't we have the courage to face the dead anymore? Do we just think about stealing our lives?"

"No!" roared a soldier in a flushed sky.

Subsequently, more and more soldiers began to shout:

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

......

Morale, back to the top again at this moment!

Looking at his soldiers, a crystal teardrop quietly fell from the corner of Ive's eye.

"My soldiers, I am incompetent to take you alive. The only thing I can do is to sleep with you in the earth. Forgive me, warriors, forgive me, brother. ”

The soldiers re-entered the line, everyone silently preparing, ready to face the army of the undead.

Just as Ivey was inspecting the defensive line, a soldier came to report: "Commander, there are several emissaries who claim to be Kingdom Hearts, and they have the token of General Qiao. ”

"Emissary of Kingdom Hearts?'s token for Old General Joe?" Ivy seemed to think of something for a moment.

So she hurriedly said to the soldiers: "Take them to the Chinese army camp tent." ”

"Yes. ”

Wright and his men entered the defensive line under the leadership of the soldiers, and were then taken to the camp tent of the Chinese army.

When they saw that the commander of the Northern Yuan Empire was actually a young and beautiful woman, they couldn't help but be stunned.

But Wright reacted quickly.

After apologizing to Ivey, he recounted his agreement with Joe and the purpose of his visit.

Ivy frowned and said, "I am relieved and grateful that the Four-Nation Alliance is willing to join hands with us to defend against the undead. But I will not leave my soldiers behind, and I will not allow you to take risks. ”

Seeing that Ivey couldn't make sense, Wright had to come up with his trump card - the favor of Elzes.

With the completion of the projection of the power of the evil gods, the events of the old gods, and the events of rescuing the Godians, Wright found that the favor of Elzes became more and more apparent.

So he begged Ivey to keep him and Ivey alone, as he had some secrets to show her.

Ivy agreed, and the others went outside the tent.

Isaac asks Roy, "How many secrets does Wright have?" ”

Roy glanced at Isaac in surprise, he didn't expect this guy who even had muscles in his head to have such a keen sense.

However, Roy didn't answer him directly, but said to him: "Don't ask, you just need to trust him." ”

"Yes, trust him, he'll surprise everyone!" Bradwin added.

"Oh?" said Isaac and Roy, both looking at Bradwin in surprise.

But Bradvin's appearance didn't seem to be going to go into details, so they settled down.

Quietly, waiting for the outcome of Wright's conversation with Ivey.
