Chapter Thirty-Eight: Escape Back to the Valley
Seeing this scene, the faces of the third prince and the others turned pale with fright.
Even if Poplar had been mentally prepared, he was taken aback, and without saying a word, he directly raised the magnetic storm gun in his hand and aimed it in the direction where the giant snake was.
In the stunned eyes of the third prince and the others, they saw a white light suddenly light up at the front end of the magnetic storm gun.
After seeing the white light on the magnetic storm gun, the giant beast seemed to have a premonition of a crisis, and turned around and fled regardless of it.
It's just that its size is too big, and although the Magnetic Storm Gun fires slowly, two seconds are fleeting.
In the puzzled eyes of the third prince and the others, they saw a ball of lightning shoot out of the strange silver-white tube in Bai Yang's hand.
The speed of the lightning ball was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire heaven and earth, causing the entire valley to light up with a fierce white light, which stunned all the living beings in the valley.
"Whew! ~" A miserable scream came from the white light not far ahead.
When the white light faded, they noticed that the dense woods ahead were gone, and a large scorched black hill with sparks appeared under the moonlight.
Not far from the hill lay a huge corpse with its skin peeled open, and the proud Richmonds who had been standing on the serpent were long gone.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang", "Bang······
The tremor of the earth woke everyone up in a daze, and after Poplar put the magnetic storm gun in his hand into the storage space, he hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up!" ”
The third prince was naturally extremely curious about where the powerful weapon went, but this was not the time to ask about it, and after hearing Bai Yang's words, he hurriedly echoed: "Yes, withdraw quickly!" ”
The group quickly rounded the steaming hills and fled straight in the direction of the Chikora Mountains to the north.
However, before everyone could escape far, they were confronted by a team of more than 100 Proud Richters.
Seeing that there were no guardian demon beasts among these people, this made the third prince and the others breathe a sigh of relief.
"Kill!" The third prince shouted and rushed forward first.
Poplar wanted to stop it, but it was too late, so he could only move his mind, and quickly pulled the grenade out of the lead and threw it towards the arrogant Ridge in front of him.
He didn't dare to throw too far forward, so as to avoid accidentally injuring the third prince and the others, but even so, when the two sides were entangled, they still caused a lot of accidental injuries.
"Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom······
Dozens of explosions like muffled thunder sounded in the mountains and forests, and the two sides were frightened into briefly separating.
"Withdraw quickly, don't entangle, I'll break the queen!" Poplar shouted as he continued to throw grenades at the Ridge Man.
Hearing his voice, coupled with the slight tremor coming from the ground, made the third prince and Kushada wake up in an instant.
"Retreat!" "Retreat!" The two shouted in unison.
"Boom", "Boom", "Boom", "Boom······
In the sound of the explosion, the third prince and the others quickly broke through the defense line of the Proud Ridge people, and fled towards the direction of the Chikela Mountain on the north side at great speed.
Poplar naturally won't really stay behind the break, and after seeing that the third prince and An Lisha had escaped, he immediately chased after him without saying a word, although there were still many Yujiaguo soldiers who had not yet broken through.
However, before he could run far, suddenly, a feeling of dizziness came, which startled him.
He didn't think about it, he directly moved his mind, summoned the starry sky map, and quickly teleported back to the stone chamber where the gourd valley was located.
After returning to the stone chamber, he immediately fainted.
Poplar didn't know how much time had passed, and as soon as he woke up, he immediately scanned the stone room, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no one.
The reason why he had fainted before was because the soul energy of the Proud Richter that he had killed with the Magnetic Storm Gun had entered his mind.
Originally, he was still worried that the big snake was also killed by him, if he really killed the big snake, his current Yuan Shen realm was afraid that he would immediately break through to the Divine Pill realm.
Fortunately, although the snake was seriously injured by the Magnetic Storm Gun, it did not die completely.
Although the Yuan Shen Realm has not broken through for the time being, to be honest, his mood is quite depressed at this time.
Because after absorbing those arrogant people who were killed by him, his primordial realm became more and more loose, which made him very nervous.
He was worried that if he absorbed some more soul energy in the future, would he directly let his Yuan Shen Realm break through to the Shen Dan Realm.
Although he was worried at this time, it was useless to worry no matter how much he worried.
After calming down his emotions, he summoned the starry sky map again, and with a movement of his mind, he quickly came to the sky above the West Kola Valley.
It didn't take long for him to find the trace of the Third Prince's party, and at this time they were climbing the steep mountain cliff, and at the foot of the mountain behind them had already gathered a large number of Proud Riches and three huge beasts.
It's just that the cliff is too steep, so those giant beasts are difficult to climb and can only continue to roar under the cliff unwillingly, while those arrogant Riches are extremely vigorous in pursuit.
Now there are less than a hundred people following the third prince, and there are even many people who are constantly being chased and captured by the arrogant riches.
Poplar naturally knew what the purpose of these Proud Riches was doing this, and those who were captured by them were rare sacrifices to them, gifts to the "gods".
If this continues, the number of people who can escape back to the Hulu Valley will probably not exceed fifty by then.
Poplar was hesitant at the moment, hesitating to save the lives of those Yujia warriors.
He knew that by throwing a few grenades in the back, he could save many lives.
Eventually, however, he gave up on the idea.
"No more killing." He sighed.
Watching those soldiers of Yujia Country being overtaken by the Proud Richie and finally being captured filled Poplar's heart with a sense of guilt.
Because the Chikela Mountain was too steep, the Proud Ridge people chased a distance and found that more than a dozen people had fallen to the bottom of the cliff due to accidental stumbling, which made them helpless to stop the pursuit.
After seeing that the Proud Ridge people stopped pursuing, Bai Yang thought about it, and with a move of his mind, he teleported, quietly followed behind the third prince and the others, and crawled in the direction where the gourd valley was located.
The third prince didn't know the situation behind him, and he had only one thought at this time, that is: escape, keep running forward.
It wasn't until he had climbed over the steep Chikora Mountain and came to the bottom of the cliff outside the gourd valley that he panted and turned his head to look behind him.
When he found that there were no pursuers behind him except for some sparse Yujiaguo elites, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Kushada, how many escaped?" He asked with a dejected expression, you must know that this time he brought out the elite of the valley, although the number of people has not yet been counted, but at least it can be seen that the number of people lost is at least more than two-thirds.
Kushada was still a little frightened at the moment, and when he heard the third prince's question, he quickly turned his head to look at it, and then said, "Your Highness, it is estimated that there are less than a hundred people. ”
"What about Poplar, have the Poplar brothers escaped?" The third prince shouted behind him.
Bai Yang was quietly hiding behind, thinking that the third prince had forgotten about him, and hearing that the other party could still think of him at this time, he couldn't help but be a little moved.
"Your Highness, I'm here, I'm here." He hurriedly walked out from the rear and spoke.
Before and after Poplar walked to him, the third prince patted his left chest lightly, and said with a sincere face: "Brother Poplar, I apologize to you for my previous behavior. ”
Hearing the words of the third prince, Kushada on the side couldn't help but be stunned, and after reacting, he quickly patted his left chest and said, "Brother Poplar, I also apologize to you for my previous behavior, and I hope to get your forgiveness." ”
Poplar was embarrassed, and to be honest, he had more or less some reason for this result.
If he had insisted on it for a while at that time, maybe he would have been able to make the two of them pay attention to it.
And he also figured it out, at that time he didn't need to explain anything at all, just tell the third prince that there was a group of unicorns in ambush outside the valley.
It's a pity that his understanding is too poor, and this solution was only thought of by him not long ago.
"Your Highness, Brother Kushada, I am actually to blame for this matter, if I could have persevered at that time, maybe I would have made you change your mind." Bai Yang hurriedly touched his nose and said with some embarrassment
"Alas, Brother Poplar, you are not wrong in this matter, it is all the fault of this king, it is this king who did not listen to you, which led to this heavy loss, I am sorry for my brothers!" The third prince sighed and sighed.
"Your Highness, please take back what you just said, it is our honor to be able to die in battle with Your Highness for Your Majesty!" Kushada hurriedly patted his left chest and said excitedly.
"It is our honor to die in battle with Your Highness for Your Majesty!" "It is our honor to die in battle for Your Majesty and Your Highness!" ······
After Kushada's words fell, a frenzied shout rang out in the mountain forest, which made Poplar solemn.
Because he was worried that the unicorn monster would catch up at any time, the third prince did not dare to relax, and after everyone stopped calling, he immediately led the few remaining elites to continue to rush along the narrow passage towards the gourd valley.
When Brino and Zeus, the two sergeant majors, saw that there were less than a hundred people left in the vast departing army, their eyes showed disbelief.
"Your Highness, what's going on?" After the third prince led the people back to the bottom of the cliff, Brino asked with a shocked expression.
Those who fled back had a mixture of joy on their faces, but more of a frustration.
Although they were not heartbroken by the death of their companions, they were depressed by the death of their companions.
In the minds of the people of Yujiaguo, only the death of victory is valuable, and the death of defeat is a manifestation of the bag.
Dai Fei, who was wearing a red skirt, was standing at the entrance of the cave at the moment, looking at her third brother with a concerned face.
The third prince looked at the tattered leather armor on his body and said with a wry smile: "We were ambushed, and most of the soldiers failed to escape. ”
"Ambush, whose ambush?" Brino asked, surprised.
"It's all because we were careless, those unicorns actually used tricks!" Kushada said through gritted teeth.
"What, what, unicorns can use tricks?" Brino closed his mouth in surprise.
"Yes." The third prince sighed and nodded in confirmation, and after a pause, he said: "Okay, let's all go back and rest, by the way, Brother Brino, let the soldiers on duty in the valley cheer up, when they came back, they were too hurried to eliminate the traces on the road in time, and I was worried that those unicorns would chase after those traces." ”
"Your Highness, please rest assured, it is very difficult to pass through the canyon with the size of those unicorns, and even if they can enter, their guardian monsters will not be able to enter, and the unicorns without the guardian monsters are not a big threat to us." Brino said with relief.
The third prince nodded and said, "Well, but it's better to be careful." ”
"Okay, Your Highness, I'll go and command." Brino nodded in response.
After Brino left, the third prince turned to Poplar, who was walking towards the cave, and shouted, "Brother Poplar, please stay." ”
