Chapter 289: A Night of Chaos
: Bing's report made Chen Jian a little arrogant from time to time. Well, he will be stunned, the so-called Miss Vikna is the one. Speaking of which, he hasn't seen this female elf again for a long time.
This self-proclaimed Druid, always a bit over-enthusiastic, and able to talk and laugh about Thor's trolls, is quite a maverick female elf who has a pretty good reputation among the Hammondale army.
It's just that Jian Chen always thinks that this female elf is deliberately approaching him, and it seems that she has some unknown purpose.
At this time, hearing the soldier say that she was covered in blood and fell into her barracks on a seriously injured silver flying horse, Jian Chen, who reacted, couldn't help but be startled: "Where is it, take me to see it."
Hearing that something was happening, Christine of course followed along to see what the situation was. When Jian Chen and Christine arrived at the scene of the incident under the guidance of the soldiers, Vikna had already been rescued by the soldiers, and her condition was quite bad. Jian Chen could barely recognize that this was the elven beauty from last time, always radiant.
Her face was pale, and she had several large wounds on her body that were deep enough to see the bones, and she was still bleeding. The original exquisite and sturdy chain mail was now tattered, and the helmet had fallen somewhere, but she still held an elven scimitar tightly in her hand, and she broke a leg when she fell, and her silver Pegasus had fallen to death on the muddy ground, and it was worth mentioning that one of Pegasus's wings seemed to have been burned by fire. Scorched black.
This situation caused the experienced Christine's pupils to shrink, and he could see at a glance that Vikna's injuries were caused by the long-handled scythes of the Archdemons of Kregan, and that the wings of the silver Pegasus had been burned by the fire monster's fire attack.
"There's a Kregan army nearby! Get your people ready for battle! Christine dropped the words. Then he ran away, and he was to inform Catherine of the matter at once.
Hearing Christine say this, Jian Chen also became nervous: "Quick, send her to High Priest Ryan for treatment!" Be careful, she's badly injured. Bring the stretcher! ”
"No way!" A figure came out of the crowd. Stopping Chen Jian's behavior, Chen Jian looked up. But it was Moriel, "She's hurt too badly." It's better not to touch her, otherwise she may not be able to hold on, so it's better to have someone ask High Priest Ryan to come over! ”
Jian Chen was stunned for a moment, and when he thought about it, Vikna fell from the sky, and he didn't know if she had injured other bones except for her broken leg, and it was indeed inappropriate to move casually, so he immediately turned his head and shouted to a soldier: "Go and ask High Priest Ryan."
At this time, hearing Christine say that several archangels with enemies had risen into the air in the rain, Jian Chen did not dare to slack off, and ordered them to go down one after another, although the incident happened suddenly, but the well-trained Hammondale army was not slow to react, and after a while, the soldiers were already assembled.
Morriel rode her scorpion lion and flew into the skies, patrolling around for traces of the Krigans.
After a while, Ryan hurried in. And there was also a commotion in the other imperial camps. Archangels and griffons take off in flocks. Coupled with the heavy rain, it looks like a bit of chaos.
As the high priest of the empire, Ryan certainly has a set of ways to heal and save people, and he checked it first. Skillfully put several broken bones on Vikna's body back into place, and then the limb magic was cast one after another, and soon, Vikna's face was no longer so pale, and the wounds on her body stopped bleeding and began to heal slowly under the effect of magic.
"Alright, let her be carried to the tent! Nothing should happen." After finishing this, Ryan got up and said to Jian Chen, and then left in a hurry. "I'm going back to command the battle, you have people watch her, and if she wakes up, ask her what happened right away!"
The sorceress who was using her magic eye to probe the surroundings heard the words and said, "Carry her to my tent, I live alone, and I am a woman, so the well is more convenient!" ”
Jian Chen nodded, and asked a few Medusas to send Vikna away: "Temp, what did you find?."
The sorceress shook her head, "No, there doesn't seem to be any trace of enemy activity around, but it may also be because the heavy rain has affected the magic."
"Damn the Kerrigans, isn't this weather going to stop?" Jian Chen wiped the rain from his face and was very annoyed, "Could it be that they want to take advantage of this weather to sneak attack us?" Are those armies at the front line sleeping? The enemy ran to the rear without even knowing! ”
At this time, Moriel, who had been out for a while, commanded the poisonous manticore lion to land not far from Jian Chen. She threw the corpse of an elven soldier she was carrying on the ground: "Lord Lord, this is what I found in the northeast direction, it is likely that they were pursued by the enemy, I suggest sending someone to investigate in that direction!" ”
Jian Chen quickly stepped forward to inspect the corpse. Then he turned to an archangel warrior who was guarding him and said, "Take this." Take it to Lord Catherine and tell her that it was found in the northeast! ”
The archangel answered, lifted the body and flew away.
Morriel said in a deep voice, "They will definitely resurrect this elf, and we will know then."
As she spoke, she was about to take off again, but was stopped by Jian Chen: "Moriel." You don't have to go out anymore, there are already so many angels and griffons outside, we are few of us, you stay to help defend! Also, you've done a good job this time. Thank you! ”
Morrill was stunned and didn't say anything, but she stayed.
Soon, the latest information came from Catherine, because, as Moryl said, Catherine asked her Archangel to resurrect the elven warrior, and then learned the general situation from the mouth of the elf.
This elven warrior and Vikna belong to the same 100-strong elven silver Pegasus army. They were ordered to come here to meet Jian Chen. Prepare to return to Hammondale together, because Vikna has dealt with Jian Chen, so she has been appointed as the liaison officer between the elves and Jian Chen, and is really responsible for the liaison between the elite team that will be sent to Jian Chen's side and Jian Chen.
As a result, they unexpectedly discovered the whereabouts of a Krigan army on the way, and Vikna immediately ordered to track it, but was unexpectedly discovered by the enemy, and the Krigan army, which was composed of all high-level fire monsters and big demons, seemed to be on some secret mission, for fear that Vikna and others would expose their whereabouts, so they launched a siege against Vikna and her party.
Vikna and her party were only a hundred people, of course, outnumbered, and in the end, only seven escaped under the cover of heavy rain, but they were also chased by the Kregans all the way, according to the elven warrior who came back from the dead, when he fled to this vicinity, only he and Vikna were still alive, and the others were all killed. This is what is known, the elven warrior is alive, but he is very weak. After saying this, she fainted again, but this information still made Catherine extremely nervous, and an elite force composed of all high-level fire monsters and archdemons appeared nearby, this situation was too unusual, and it was very likely that it was aimed at Chen Jian.
So Christine was sent out by Catherine to search for the enemy along the northeast, and Chen Jian's military camp was also heavily protected by the imperial ** team, and the air was also heavily defended.
Cedros and other Bracada magicians also rushed to Chen Jian's military camp to help after learning the news, but to everyone's surprise. Until dawn, no enemy attacked the camp, and Christine had no gain outside. Only a few corpses of elven soldiers were found, but the Kerrigan army did not leave a trace.
"Could it be that after they were exposed, they felt that they couldn't do anything, and then retreated?" After a night of trouble and no sleep, Chen Jian's spirit was very bad, and of course his mood was even worse.
At this time, he was in a meeting with Catherine and the others. Unable to find the enemy, Catherine did not dare to be careless. After resurrecting a few more elves and getting more detailed information, she summoned everyone to Chen Jian's military camp to discuss how to deal with this incident.
Jian Chen's words were agreed by the others, and Ryan said, "There is this possibility, it seems that the Kerrigan people have set their sights on you." Judging from the information obtained, this is an elite army of thousands of people, all composed of high-level fire monsters and archdemons, Vikna and they were able to escape, they are really lucky! ”
Catherine said: "I have already informed the Holy Alliance of this matter, and the most worrying thing now is that I don't know what the Kerrigan people want to do, if they just want to catch Jian Chen, then it is easier to deal with, if they want to kill Jian Chen, then it will be troublesome, in case they use the blade of doom, we are afraid that we will not have the strength to fight back!" ”
Catherine's words made Jian Chen secretly frightened: "No, in order to deal with me, use the Last Blade?"
Christine also shook her head: "Probably not." If that's the case, they could have done it last night! I think they were the idea of fighting and capturing them alive! But what do we do now? Although the enemy may have retreated for the time being, I don't know when it will come back, so will we stay here like this? Or evacuate in the rain?.
Catherine frowned and said: "I can't continue to stay here, I originally thought that it would be relatively safe to stay away from the front line, but it doesn't seem to be the case now, with the Blade of Doom, it's always unsafe to camp in the wild, it's better for you to protect Jian Chen or leave as soon as possible, I just don't know if the Krigan people will not give up and intercept you halfway!" In such weather, if they really want to sneak attack, it will be difficult to find out in advance! ”
Everyone was also silent, it was not easy to march in the rain, and the enemy's elite flying troops were going to sneak attack. It's really hard to deal with.
Catherine thought for a while, then suddenly turned to Jian Chen and said, "Why don't you ask Mr. Tren to come over and let him take you away first by teleporting?" ”
But she immediately vetoed the proposal herself: "No, the big demons will also teleport, in case they find out and catch up, it will be even more dangerous!" Increasing the number of army guards is not an option, and it may lead to an attack on the Blade of Doom! The Angel Legion is still on the road and hasn't come over, what can I do? ”
Just then, a Hammondale soldier reported from outside the door, "My lord, the Medusas say Miss Vikna is awake, but" she seems a little weird, though! You'd better go over and take a look! (To be continued)
