Chapter 44: Counterattack

After repelling the Trench Ronin, He Youlan led the survivors to Radamandis.

When Radamandis saw Yulan, his already dim eyes suddenly returned to light. The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and his eyes began to moisten, but he looked at his wife speechless.

"What's wrong? Why didn't you speak when you saw me? Youlan blinked her charming peach blossom eyes and said.

Radamandis took a breath, a slight smile curling up the corners of his mouth, and then walked over to Yulan and took her hands.

"Everyone is happy!" Tianxuan couldn't help but sigh when he saw the picture of the couple's reunion.

"Of course!" Hercules said.

As he spoke, Tianxuan suddenly thought about it and felt that something was wrong, so he quickly turned his head and asked Hercules: "Hercules, I remember that you seem to be besieged!" How did you get out of so many people when you were injured again? ā€

Hercules' face sank and he replied, "I didn't escape, I found a place to cover and confront them, but suddenly they received some orders and gave up and I withdrew!" ā€

"Is there such a thing?" Tian Xuan rolled his eyes and pressed his eyebrows to express doubt.

"Well, that's true, and I'm surprised!" Hercules touched his forehead and continued, "Later, I drove the pioneer back to the water city to recuperate. ā€

"Don't you see anyone else?" Tianxuan asked.

"No, I didn't see a single living person when I went back, let alone a poisoned person!" Hercules emphasized, not seeing.

"How so?" Tianxuan bit his lip and lowered his head.

Seeing this, Hercules patted him on the shoulder and said, "I know you're still worried about what happened to Black Katy, but I'll tell you good news, she didn't die, she should have been taken captive!" ā€

"Oh? Taken captive? Tianxuan rolled his eyes at Hercules, puzzled.

"I don't know why, but I know that the alchemists have disappeared instead of being killed. I guess I was caught! As for what purpose is not clear! Hercules carefully analyzed with Tianxuan.

"It seems that we are going to capture Lanmian City as soon as possible and rescue these alchemists!" Tianxuan said with his fingers in a figure of eight, dragging his chin.

"Hmm!" Hercules nodded in agreement.

"Hey, Hercules, you're so hard!" A hand slapped Hercules on the back.

Hercules looked back and saw Nicos rubbing her hands with joy on her face, and replied with a smile: "That's right, I'm the strongest warrior in our Maya!" After saying that, he raised his head slightly in meaning.

Nicolas pursed her lips to reveal two small dimples and continued to joke: "Hey, where did you get that silver axe, how come I have never seen it?" ā€

"Scraped?" Hercules shook his head, shook his fingers and smacked twice, "This is a weapon of my own design, of course you haven't seen it!" Just two days after recuperating in Shuicheng, I made it out and brought it with me. ā€

"Made your own?" Tianxuan's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide to show great surprise.

"Then why have I never seen you with me?" Nicolas asked.

Hercules smiled evilly and poured the silver axe to Nicos: "Why don't you take it down!" ā€

Nicolas just reached out to take the handle, but was directly pressed by the silver axe and lost its center, although Hercules withdrew his hand in time to regain his grip on the silver axe, but Nicos still fell to the ground. Seeing this scene, Tianxuan hurriedly stepped forward and half-squatted to support Nicos.

Although Nicols was held by Tianxuan and leaned against him, the weight of the silver axe just now was still a little uncontrollable.

"Hey, Hercules, how much does that thing weigh?" Tianxuan asked.

ā€œ200KGļ¼ā€

ā€œ200KG? Is there anything wrong? How can this girl's family afford it! Tianxuan was a little dissatisfied with Hercules's jokes, blaming him for not being able to pity the jade.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm okay!" Nicolas slowly fought with Tianxuan's support. Although she said that it was okay, she turned her head as soon as she saw Hercules, and she was still a little angry.

"Alright, alright! Let's not mess around here! Hurry up and help! Tianxuan diverted his gaze in order to ease the atmosphere. So, the three of them joined the team to rebuild Power City.

After a full day of rectification of Power City, the defense system can basically be put back into use, and the city has returned to its previous order, and people's lives are normal again......

After everything was settled, Radamandis, who was supposed to lead the expedition, stayed in the city due to injuries and sitting, and then Hercules and Blake led the attack on Laman City. At this time, the troops sent by Brentre were also about to leave for Lanmian City to flank it.

Since several Immortals were only traveling at a speed of more than 30 kilometers per hour, Hercules and Blake's troops marched for more than a day before they reached the city of Lamian.

"It's back here again!" Tianxuan followed the troops, and when he came to Lanmian City, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, indeed, the scenery is still the same, and the people are not what they used to be!" Hercules echoed.

Although Tianxuan knew that Hercules didn't understand idioms. But he teased him for changing his idioms: "I thought you were going to say that people are thinner than yellow flowers?" With that, he giggled.

"Be serious!" Hercules pretended to be serious and reprimanded.

"Oh? Revisiting the old place, what happened to the two of you? Blake on the side wanted to ask.

Tianxuan stretched out his hand and said to Blake, "Earlier, with the help of Mr. Gusas, we escaped from Lanmian City in embarrassment, and we were chased and beaten all the way. ā€

Speaking of this, Tianxuan rolled his eyes, stretched out his fingers, and said with a smug appearance: "Now it's time for us to beat this group of poisoned people." The roles of cat and mouse are now reversed! Hey, hey, hey! ā€

Blake understood at this time, nodded exaggeratedly and said, "I see, no wonder the two of you have such feelings!" ā€

"Oops! Nicolas might have been more emotionally impressed if he was here! Tianxuan said.

"Nicos, the alchemist apprentice, oh yes, this little girl is with you. Worthy of the outlaw trio. Blake was also funny and teased each other with Tianxuan.

"That's the end of the chat!" Hercules waved his hand to stop the troops.

So, Tianxuan and Blake ended their small talk and looked ahead vigilantly. At this time, there were bright lights and smoke in the distance from time to time, presumably the troops of the Brentre side had begun to attack the city. In order to cope with them, Hercules and Black also hurriedly arranged for the Immortals to start attacking the city, and the others were ready to rush into the city for street fighting.

Then, the siege began, and the Immortals began to slowly advance towards the city of Lanmian, and they did not meet resistance until they reached the bottom of the city.

"Hercules, don't we have anyone stationed here?" Tianxuan was a little worried about such a quiet battle situation, and his expression was a little solemn.

"Well, tart carefully! Don't take it lightly until you break into the city! Hercules also agreed with Tianxuan's opinion, so he ordered ten berserkers to go to the city gate first to investigate.

So, the 10 berserkers who received the order slowly walked to the gate of Lanmian City with their shields on their heads. At this time, as expected, dozens of gassing eggs were dropped.

The ten spotted berserkers fell to their knees as soon as the bombs were dropped, their hands clutching their throats, foaming at the mouth, and within a few seconds they fell to the ground convulsing.

"The Immortals begin to drop blasting projectiles!" As soon as Hercules finished speaking, a one-meter-high launch stand rose from the back seat of the four immortals.

Immediately afterward, the blasting bomb was fired at the city gate, followed by a few skyrocketing fires.

Although Tianxuan and the others encountered resistance from the poisoned in this regard, they basically did not encounter much resistance and pried open the gate to the city.

"It's completely vulnerable! Hercules, beware of deception! Tianxuan said with a frown at Hercules next to him.

"Indeed, I also feel that this battle is too easy to fight, it is like a devastating battle, and it will collapse at the first touch, and it is not an effective defense at all!" Hercules touched his forehead with his finger at this point, thinking about the possible events that might occur when he stormed the city.

"Otherwise, I'll take a team of people to rush in and have a look!" Blake volunteered to lead the team in person.

"It's okay, but the environment in Black City is complicated, you have to be careful, if something unfavorable happens, please remember to retreat in time and inform me." Hercules patted Blake on the shoulder, and said with a resolute and concerned look in his eyes.

"Hmm!" Blake answered, and rushed into the city with more than 100 men.

"Everyone, take your seat, the Immortals continue to support with artillery, and the others are ready to meet Blake and them." Not long after Hercules finished speaking, he saw Black hurriedly retreat from the city.

"Looks like something terrible has happened!" Tianxuan pointed at Blake and said to Hercules next to him, "Look, Blake, it's only been a long time since they've been in, it's not even 10 minutes!" This is the exit, it seems that the city is quite dangerous! ā€

"Well, it looks like that!" Immediately afterwards, Hercules raised his weapon and ordered the group, "Come with me, and go and pick up the Blake and them." ā€

Just as Hercules was ready to rush forward with his men to meet Blake, Blake waved his hand and shouted to them, "Hercules, stop attacking, stop attacking!" ā€

"What?" When Hercules heard Blake's shout, his eyes immediately straightened, and the second monk was puzzled.

As Black got closer, Hercules hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Ask me to stop attacking! ā€

Blake relieved his panting state for a moment and said, "You know Gusas!" ā€

"Yes! He's the chief consul of Lamian City! Hercules was surprised to hear Blake mention Gusas's name, "What's wrong with him?" ā€

Blake breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "The battle is over, and half of our Lanmian City has been controlled by Mr. Gusas. ā€

"Oh? There is such a thing! Hercules' mouth opened wide, and for a moment it was difficult to accept.

Just when he was in doubt, Gusas led his men out of the city gate to meet Tianxuan and them.
