Chapter 2 Ten Years

(Ask for recommended tickets!) )

………………………………

"Ah――――――h

The piercing screams resounded for several kilometers around the Emperor's Landing City.

Corresponding to this is a dense mass of countless legions of howling, crawling out of the murky river and churning silt.

Then, like madness, expand in all directions and unleash the bloodiest slaughter of all the creatures that walk upright.

There are only a few words about the Howling Legion in the distant history of the Central Empire:

"When the Temple of Silence becomes the Holy City again."

"When the master of the Temple of Silence becomes the king of the two temples."

"Remember, those elves who have been slaughtered and buried beneath the Imperial City, if you hear the horn of death, you must come back and take one or ten legions, kill them, these damned humans, and aliens, and throw all their souls into the abyss of weeping!"

It is said that thousands of years ago, the Central Continent used to be inhabited by many elven races such as sun elves, moon elves, and grassland elves. Then, with the rise and expansion of humanity, millions of elves were used as slaves to build the city of ten thousand cities, and in this long construction process, all the elves were abused and slaughtered on the spot.

It seems that each temple has its own story of origin.

Among them, the curse of the Sanctuary of Silence is the most well-known to mankind because it involves the extermination and slaughter of the elves by humans.

It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that the legends and stories before and after bedtime and after meals were sometimes not groundless.

…………

Although the Lich King is bound, it is difficult to count the number of the Howling Legion.

And with the fall and change of ownership of the Imperial Landing City, the City of Ten Thousand Cities will become the base camp of the Howling Legion.

At present, the number of the Howling Legion is showing a blowout, and with the formation of a huge number of legions, this plague situation is a war disaster. Soon it will spread to the entire central realm.

-- It will even spread to the four continents of east, west, south, and north.

Turning back from the wilderness of the Imperial Landing City, whether Aaron wants to admit it or not, the Battle of Bussman Plains has become a waste of money.

The two sides fought for a day, killed a large number of soldiers, and before the results were obtained, the god of war issued an order to retreat to hundreds of thousands of beast clans.

"Retreat!"

"Retreat, this is the order of the god of war!"

"Stop fighting, the rear army becomes the front army. Retreat on all fronts! Hurry--"

In the ears of the orc warrior Walter, all he could hear were the orders of the officers.

He ran breathlessly, glad that he had survived, and that the enemy had not pursued him.

It was a hasty retreat, and despite facing twice as many enemies, the orc legion was not defeated.

Whenever he was tired, Walter would stop, think about the distance he was chasing, draw strength and hit the road again.

"But why? Victory is clearly at hand. The morale of the enemy's nearly a million legions has dissipated. Whenever he was confused and couldn't figure it out, Walter would stop, sort out his chaotic thoughts, and drive away the confusion before he got on the road.

Whenever it's painful. He stopped, touched the bleeding wound, wiped away his tears, and set out on his way.

"Ah, it's painful for Lao Tzu to die. Kill me with a knife! ”

"Damn the shaman, I sawed off my leg."

“…………”

Fortunately, the road to retreat is not very far.

In the makeshift camp on Sunset Plains, Walter blankly surveyed everything around him.

Shamans and rescuers treat the wounded. The scene was a bit chaotic. The rude shouts and groans of pain of the wounded kept everyone scrambling.

Finally, under the supervision and inspection of the orc elders and the Spartan heavy helmets, the wounded overcame the natural wildness of the orcs and gradually became quiet.

But what makes people most tired is often not the difficulty of the war and the distance of the road, but the depression in the heart.

This situation continued until a few days later, when the Orc Legion heard that nearly a million human soldiers in the Bootman Plain had been swallowed up by the Howling Legion, and realized how wise the God of War's orders were.

The sunset castle, which had been turned into a ruined castle, was set against the backdrop of ruins, and Aaron's face was pale, his eyes were weak, and his hollow pupils were gray. The pale lips pursed slightly. Wrinkles on the forehead and corners of the eyes are more pronounced, and the silver hair loses its original luster.

The Templar warriors, who needed to recuperate, returned to Sunset Plains, where Kratos was seriously injured.

There was not a single piece of flesh on his body, his skin seemed to be clinging directly to his bones, and the bulging Adam's apple was so pronounced that it seemed as if death was about to summon him.

He kept coughing up blood, coughing up until he almost thought he was going to die because of it.

"Send a team of giant eagles to escort General Kratos back to the Temple of Nothingness. Immediately! ”

At such a juncture, only by relying on the power of the temple can Kratos be saved.

It's a pity that after leaving the Savage Continent for a long time, the soldiers of the Holy Order have lost contact with the Temple.

Now, the only way to do this is to rely on the Hurricane Temple's teleportation array to send it back to the Void Holy City.

Later, Aaron ordered, "Send the Giant Eagle Warriors and tell the Kurushh Legion to abandon the offensive against the Western Continent." …… Also, immediately order to collect coolies from the entire northern continent, and we will ...... To build a Great Wall, if I judge correctly, the Spartan Empire will have to spend a long time in defense and hard fighting. ”

Clutching his abdomen, a broken bone knife was still stuck in it.

With the poison in his body and the continuous heavy damage by the Lich King Xenia, if it weren't for the support of the 10-star effect of the King of Sparta, he might have fallen.

Aaron knew this very well.

Now, he must rely on the power of the temple to heal his injuries as soon as possible.

It's just that Lidong's disappearance made Aaron not care about his battle injuries, and he sent the giant eagle warriors to look around while waiting on the ruins of Sunset Castle for the time being.

At first, the blood seeped out from under the armor little by little, and then dripped to the ground drop by drop, and in a few serious places, there were large traces of blood.

Under the leadership of Yulan, several female elves from the Greenway Holy City wanted to remove their armor for Aaron. I didn't expect to be stopped by him.

Aaron knows his injuries best. If the armor is removed, he may fall immediately.

Close your eyes to cultivate your spirit, and organize your thoughts to judge the situation in front of you.

"All-out war lightning struck the northern continent, and then captured the city of Emperor's Landing, sweeping the entire Central Empire with the appeal and influence of a god. Such a strategy was declared bankrupt with the advent of the Howling Legion. The Lich King Xinia, who owns the Holy City of Silence and the Flame Sanctuary, has been sealed outside the Emperor's Landing City, so the Azure Sanctuary of the Emperor's Landing City, the Imperial Enemy Temple, and the Haoran Holy City will not be directly owned by her, and it is more likely that she is a subordinate. ”

"Starting today, the entire Central Continent will be divided into five forces. The Spartan Empire, the Howling Legion, the West, the East, and the South. There is no doubt that of the five powers, the Spartan Empire and the Legion of the Wailing owned all eight temples. There will be two factions for others to choose to join, the Spartan God of War faction and the Howling Evil faction. ”

“…… That's all that can be foreseen at the moment. ”

About two hours later, with the return of the last team of Giant Eagle Warriors, Aaron gets news of Ridong.

"My Emperor, Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the God of War Guard have been found."

Finally, Aaron breathed a sigh of relief, and while sensing the Hurricane Sanctuary, he authorized the Elven Queen Yolan, "During the time I am away, you will be in command of the Night Legion." As Governors and Vice-Governors of the Northern Continent, Kulush and William will also assist you in resisting the Howling Legion's attacks! ”

Sensing the existence of the Hurricane Temple, Aaron's body gradually turned into an illusion.

At the moment when the elf queen Youlan bowed her head slightly and expressed her obedience, the god of war officially left everyone's sight, leaving only one sentence, "Take care of Lidong for me!" ”

No one, including Aaron, thought that this disappearance of the God of War would last for a long time.

……

Returning to the Hurricane Sanctuary in an instant surprised Aaron, with the ability of the Level 1 Hurricane Sanctuary, it was not enough to heal his serious injuries.

Fortunately, teleporting from the Hurricane Sanctuary to the Void Holy City was enough for Aaron.

A few seconds later.

In Aaron's changing horizon, the internal space in front of him has the same spaciousness, simplicity, and unity.

The arches of the atrium are rectangular in plan, with a cross vault for each room, corresponding to the vaults of the side halls on both sides.

There is a magnificent hall formed by the central hall and two side halls.

At the moment of returning to the Void Holy City, the sparkling spots of light in the impression did not appear.

In fact, the blur of fainting hit, and Aaron didn't pay attention to these details, and quickly fainted.

I don't know when I will break free from the darkness, I don't know when I will wake up again.

"What's going on?"

When Aaron regained consciousness, he wanted to move his body.

But there was an inexplicable intuition that told him that he seemed to have lost control of his body. It's like being imprisoned, and even blinking your eyelids is in vain.

This strange situation made Aaron think of the ultimate skill of the Void Temple, drawing the ground as a prison!

It was as if he had turned into a frozen rock, which made him feel a little cold. As time passed, Aaron's mind soon got a hint of a text message.

"An artifact attack from the Holy City of Annihilation and the Flame Sanctuary has caused fatal wounds to the body. Hint: Fix time, 10 years! ”

"This ......"

About this inexplicable hint, as well as the incredible time ceiling.

Aaron is horrified to discover that he has become a statue that cannot speak or move.

In each of the halls of the Void Holy City, the Greenway Holy City, and the Hurricane Temple, there is a lifelike statue that closely resembles Aaron, and it seems that the meaning and function of these statues are ...... The mystery has finally been revealed. (To be continued......)
