Chapter Ninety-Six: The Queen

'Hooray! Everyone has escaped Syracuse safely! ’

Although Xia Han wanted to say this, it was a pity that the situation was not so optimistic.

"Death toll 230237245"

In the square, a new clash broke out between soldiers of two races. The escape tunnel arranged by the old woman was too narrow to contain all the people in a short time, and the orcs attacked again after hesitating not long after.

Fortunately, there were still seriously injured orcs scattered in the square, and Xia Han used these 'hostages' to force the archers team to stop. He was glad that the commanders of these orcs were compatriot-minded, and it would be extremely dangerous for an unreasonable fellow to come.

A quarter of an hour later, the three thousand men had already walked one after another. Xia Han looked at the 270 number of deaths, and then counted the soldiers who were still fighting, adding up to more than 320 in total.

He turned around and said the incantation, and two hot, swirling fireballs flew to the ground.

There was a loud "boom", and the originally opened tunnel entrance was covered with rocks again, not to mention the orcs, even the humans present could not enter.

"What are you doing!" The sudden turn of events overwhelmed the remaining resistors, and two of them were slashed by orcs axes without paying attention.

However, Xia Han's expression was calm, his actions were reasonable, and in order to get the others out of the city, he had to block the road - and leave some people as victims of delay.

"I'm sorry." He bowed his head and apologized to the soldiers who had stayed: "You must be left to buy time for everyone's escape, I think you should be able to understand." ”

Pushed by the cold winter wind, his black hair fluttered: "I will be with you until the last moment." ”

Xia Han felt a painful sense of deception in his heart, he had the hole card to live, and the moral of what he said was: he would fight with these soldiers and witness their death before escaping.

But no one else would know this, and in the eyes of the remaining human soldiers, this strange 'maiden' was now fighting with them with the determination to die. They don't know each other, but the other party intends to give their lives to save the humans of Syracuse.

The effect of the Noble Body's silent launch this time was not as strong as the first time, but it also penetrated into the hearts of the soldiers, raising their morale and combat power.

"I really can't help it" "Even an outsider has such determination, what qualifications do we have to complain." "Brothers, hold your ground!"

One by one, their weapons were raised, and they took a few steps back, forming a defensive line side by side. Only one person didn't move, and it was a woman who was crying in a low voice.

"You don't want to stay?" Xia Han ran over, repelled the rushing orcs with flames, and then asked her, "Do you want to leave?" ”

"No, I'd love to stay, but I can't." The woman squatted on the ground, tears dripping down: "My family died when I was a child, and only one of my younger brothers is still uncertain in the Emerald City, I have to find him"

"I can't die here."

How many disasters the war four years ago caused to the people of the Emerald Empire, Xia Han knew very little. But as he said at the beginning, it is always civilians who suffer the most from war, and how much civilian sadness and hatred will be generated by a war?

In fact, the soul of any decision-maker who thinks deeply about war cannot bear the responsibility that it brings.

The same is true of Xia Han, who is not a philanthropist, or that many of his decisions have an indifferent side. However, even then, if it is not necessary, he will thrift his fangs. Just like the battle in front of you, a few fewer people will not affect the overall situation.

"White Tiger." He turned back and instructed the tired White Tiger: "Take her out." ”

It happened that the white tiger was also seriously injured, and Xia Hansuo planned to let it take the woman away, he looked around at the others: "Anyone else who is in a similar situation to her, let's leave together!" ”

His words stunned all the soldiers who remained, and the woman raised her head and looked up at him with red eyes.

"Don't underestimate us, bastard!" "It's a battle now!"

Some of the equally stunned orcs rushed up with roars, but immediately humans blocked them.

"I'm fine." "Me too, it's okay to die here." "Yezi, go back and let my mother-in-law take care of my wife."

Unexpectedly, after that no one made the same demands as a woman. These soldiers who dared to stand on the periphery with weapons in their arms were originally the bravest elites in Syracuse, and their strong hearts were not smoothed out with time, and they were not afraid of death.

"Everyone" the woman called Ye Zi burst into tears again, she wiped her eyes and said, "I'd better stay!" ”

It's a pity that at this time, Xia Han had already called Baihu regardless of it, and asked, "Can you escape with her?" ”

"No problem." White Tiger Tina nodded, the city wall was not far away, and it could break out even if it was tired: "But you don't want to go with me?" ”

Xia Han shook his head and refused.

"Alright then, young man, I like your courage." The white tiger walked slowly to the woman's side, and then stretched out his paws to catch her, regardless of her struggle: "It's a pity that I won't be as stupid as you." ”

It turned back to Xia Han and smiled: "Farewell, my beautiful temporary master!" He threw the woman away, opened his mouth, turned around, and ran towards the city wall in a white light.

"It just said teenager, I heard you right" "Well, I noticed it too"

Xia Han heard the conversation between the two people, turned around and smiled: "Who told you that I am a woman?" ”

A fireball ignited in his hand, and he threw it out with a cold look, not only hitting the orc, but the afterglow of the flames also 'coincidentally' burned the eyebrows of the two men. Subsequently, no one dared to talk about his surname.

"Death toll 271273276280288"

In the final defensive battle, the death toll began to rise gradually, and the long-term spell casting made Xia Han feel unbearable soreness, and he watched the people around him fall, but he was powerless to return to the sky.

I think it's almost time, right? It's better to wait

Xia Han counted the time, but for some reason, he couldn't open his mouth to send a signal to the phoenix in the sky. Even though the people around him fell one by one, there was a premonition in his heart that prevented him from opening his mouth - he couldn't expose Fiona as the biggest hole card and couldn't use it now.

This was a premonition that was extremely cruel to others, but Xia Han trusted his instincts and believed in his own judgment. Even if all these people were dead, he wouldn't be able to expose Fiona casually.

What Xia Han can do is to 'ruthlessly' watch these people die

"Stop, don't kill him!"

When the death toll reached three hundred, a roar rang out from the rear of the orcs, followed by a familiar orc, who galloped over on his horseβ€”the commander, the most powerful commander of the orcs in Syracuse.

He told the orcs to stop their attacks and walk at the front of all the teams.

"I'm going to talk to you." The cadre had a cold face and said to Xia Han: "I can not blame you for your actions in the past, and even let the people around you go now." ”
