CH.78 Siege
If the Nova Empire's army were to destroy indiscriminately, all of these civilians would surely suffer, but luckily, this army wouldn't do that.
"I wish you all peace and well." Quasimodo muttered a word in his mind, shifted his gaze, and began to search for those high-ranking enemy generals.
With so many troops moving around, it's not difficult to find a senior general.
An army rushing to the main gate to provide support, numbering more than a thousand people, turned around and shouted: "Why are you running so slowly, give me more hurry!" Didn't you eat? ”
The soldiers behind clenched their teeth and barely increased their speed a little.
The officer turned his head and continued to lead, and at this moment, the space in front of him suddenly distorted, and a young man with a gloomy temperament walked out of it, it was Quasimodo.
"You, you......" The officer was taken aback and hurriedly raised the weapon in his hand.
Quasimodo's figure flickered, teleported to the officer's side, and reached out to press the officer's shoulder, and spatial chains spread out from his palms, like crazy rattans, tying the officer's heel into a dumpling. With a casual pull, he shoved the officer into the space cell, keeping him in company with the man who had been arrested before.
Before the ordinary soldiers could react, Quasimodo had already disappeared, like a ghost that had never appeared.
The soldiers looked at each other, and one of them muttered, "Where is our commander?" ”
This is the first casualty.
Quasimodo kept shutting out, shoving officer after officer into the space cell. There is already a feeling of overcrowding. The generals continued to disappear, the morale of the army of the White Bear Ancient Kingdom plummeted, and the problem of strict command and dispatch also appeared. The soldiers were like headless flies, and no one told them what to do next. The timid soldiers simply fled the battlefield, and more soldiers followed suit, and the imperial city's defenses were in disarray.
In order to stabilize the situation, the White Bear Ancient Kingdom sent more generals over, but all the people sent out were like mud cows entering the sea, and there was one less one sent out. to later. Even the entire headquarters was wiped out by Quasimodo.
The Imperial City was plunged into panic and chaos.
The elite battalion cooperated with Quasimodo to storm the main gate of the imperial city, taking advantage of the chaos to break through the main gate. broke into the imperial city, but did not continue to charge, but stayed here.
An Rui flew all the way to the main entrance with the flying boat and stopped here. He wanted to be able to get through this aggressive behavior. Push Croft out.
Quasimodo circled around the Imperial City like a flickering grim reaper, and as fewer and fewer high-ranking officers he could find, he set his sights on the castle in the middle of the Imperial City. High-ranking officials, nobles, generals, and even kings may well have taken refuge in the castle. He teleported to the castle gate, repelled the soldiers guarding the gate with magic, and then violently shredded the castle's enchantment and various magical guards. The shattered castle gates were presented before his eyes. He stepped inside, unleashing his magical perception. Looking for a worthy target.
Entering the door is a spacious hall with a beautiful sleek colored floor, a red carpet in the middle, flanked by towering stone pillars that support the castle's ceiling. At the end of the hall there is a staircase that leads to the top, turning in two directions halfway through.
A group of people were walking down the stairs, led by a majestic dwarf with neat pigtails on his head and wearing a sumptuous royal robe. The dwarf frowned, his face solemn, and his lips pursed. Many civil officials and generals followed behind the dwarves, their expressions different, but most of them had sad faces. Several of the women wept and cried, crying as they walked.
Quasimodo recognized at a glance that the dwarf led by him was the king of the White Bear Ancient Kingdom, his eyes suddenly froze, and he said in a deep voice: "I finally found you." ”
He really didn't expect to run into Croft as soon as he entered the castle, and he thought that he would have to look for a long time to find it, and maybe even not find it at all. He didn't know that according to Croft's character, he would definitely be determined to live and die with the Imperial City, and it would be impossible to leave here.
Seeing that Quasimodo was about to make a move, Croft stopped, exuding the majesty and domineering of a king, and shouted: "Stop!" ”
This voice was like a roar, resounding throughout the hall.
"What else do you want to say?" Quasimodo didn't rush to make a move, but asked in an unkind tone.
"I know you're powerful, and even if we are all combined, you're no match for you, but please let me go, don't make a move on me. This war is a foregone conclusion, and we will definitely lose, and I hope you will give me a chance to fight King Anrui in a dignified manner. Anyway, I want to die on the streets of the Imperial City and apologize to the people of the whole country and the ancestors in Valhalla with my blood! Croft gritted his teeth and said loudly.
Croft used all the methods he could use, and all the talents he could send out were also sent, but there was still no way to take An Rui, and there would be no chance of winning if he continued to fight, so he thought of a one-on-one duel with An Rui. He was a king, and he won the hearts of the people, and when he died in the streets, he would surely arouse the anger of the people of the whole country. Even if he dies at that time, the country will fight Anrui to the death, which is much better than being captured and locked up by Quasimodo.
Quasimodo glanced at Croft deeply, and slowly restrained the battle intent on his body: "Okay, I'll give you this opportunity, you go to see An Rui's majesty." He is now at the gates of the city. ”
Croft took another step and strode down the stairs, out of the castle, through the streets, all the way to the city gates. Many officials and family members followed him, and the procession was mighty. Quasimodo was like an overseer, following the team to prevent the gang from playing any tricks.
On the way, they encountered some scattered armies, and when the officers and soldiers saw the king appear, they were all dumbfounded, some froze in place, and some followed the king's ranks.
The team passed through the small half of the imperial city, walked a long way, and finally came to the gate of the imperial city. This place has already been breached, and only a small number of officers and soldiers are still resisting.
Standing on the flying ship, Anrui had already seen Croft walking step by step, and learned about Croft's decision through Quasimodo's message. He didn't know what Croft was going to do, but he had his own plans. (To be continued......)
