In order to ensure the safety of each time, this man in his forties resolutely refused to transfer the power of the magic hot air balloon to others.

"I designed and built the Magic Hot Air Balloon, and I know every part of the Magic Drive very well, if something goes wrong in the air, I can check and eliminate it in time, but can you?" Wang Han looked very reasonable.

But after all, he was just an ordinary person, day and night for a few days in a row, his eyes were full of hideous bloodshots, his face was full of haggard and exhaustion, if it weren't for the fact that there was an alchemist in the fortress who could make a primary vitality potion, which could replenish people's physical strength and energy in time, I am afraid he would have to die of exhaustion!

With the flight speed of the magic hot air balloon, it takes about 20 minutes to get out of the spider sea and go to the safe area, and it only takes 10 minutes to return to the fortress due to the weight reduction.

Half an hour round trip, carrying 100 people each time, day and night transportation, can carry 4,800 people a day, five days have passed, the fortress has lost more than half of the people, it seems extremely empty.

The sharp decrease in the number of people directly led to the emptiness of the fortress's defense, and in the face of the increased siege intensity, those who remained behind had a feeling of powerlessness.

"It's good that there are still two of you." The Major sighed slightly, as a mage, he also personally participated in the defense, and just yesterday he was unfortunately corroded by a cloud of corrosive slime and corroded his entire right palm.

"Major, how many are left?" Haoren couldn't hide his tiredness between his eyebrows, even if he had six thousand combat power, the continuous battle consumed a lot of his physical strength.

"There are less than 10,000 people left." The major paused and said, "Jiang Junqing, you can leave first later." ”

Jiang Junqing is even worse than Haoren, he is too tired, he can only rely on the big sword to support his body at this time, hearing the major's words, he was shocked all over, and shouted loudly: "No! I can drink vitality potions! ”

"That alchemist also said that the primary vitality elixir has a limited effect, and there will be side effects if you drink too much." Haoren first shook his head and refused.

Wang Han relied on the vitality potion, and finally fainted on the spot after holding on for five days, but fortunately, the major had been prepared and let people learn how to make a magic hot air balloon in advance, so he took over Wang Han's work.

"Let's just decide!" The major waved his hand, and immediately several people came up and carried Jiang Junqing down, and the berserker boy didn't even have much strength left to walk.

"Actually, you should also consider retreating!" The major said calmly.

"Hehe, haven't you slept in days?" Haoren smiled slightly and waved the Sword of Glory: "I'm not as desperate as Jiang Junqing, I still rest for two hours every day, and it should be no problem to hold on for a few more days." ”

"Two days at most!" The Major looked at the vast spider tide, and there was a rare hint of relief in his tone.

The long battle for perseverance seems to be finally coming to an end.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

At this moment, a dull sound of footsteps came from the direction of the distant horizon, and the ground shook slightly, and the spider monsters outside the fortress instantly stopped attacking, standing quietly in place, looking back at the approaching red light in the distance, and did not dare to make a sound.

The whole world seemed to be cleared in an instant, and only the sound of regular footsteps remained.

Hao Ren was slightly surprised, stretched out the wings of the god of fire, and flew forward at a rapid distance, and the spider monsters did not move, so that he did not have to worry about the attack on the ground.

"This is ......" The red light in the distance was getting closer and closer, and Haoren finally saw the face of the comer, this was still a spider, but it was different from all the spiders here.

The spider was about half as small as the giant spiders, and its eight legs were more developed and strong, and the most striking thing was that its whole body was covered with a layer of orange flames, like a coat woven by flames, and its eight legs were also intertwined with fire, leaving a fire pit on the ground every time it took a step.

Wherever the fire spiders went, all the other spiders consciously moved out of a very wide way, and some of the small spiders that didn't have time to dodge were instantly trampled into a braised meat patty.

"True Eye of Fire!"

Haoren hurriedly opened his eyes, light red flame lines appeared slightly in his pupils, and after aiming his vision at the red spider, the data obtained from the feedback made his mouth open wide in horror.

Fire King Spider: Normal-level elite monster with 40,000 combat power!

Warning: Half an hour after the Fire King Spider enters the area, a 10-person blue dungeon will be formed, please leave the dungeon area in time!

Warning: This quest is a mobile quest that moves with the movement of the Elite.

received two prompts in a row, which made Haoren stunned on the spot, 10 blue copies, and it was an elite monster with 40,000 combat power!

Haoren roared angrily, activated the flame sword qi, and several vacuum slashes shot out in the air, hitting the body of the Fire King Spider, but from the flame coat, a burst of rising flames only fluttered lightly, swallowing all the vacuum wave blades.

Damage 0!

Are you kidding! Haoren couldn't help but be shocked, you must know that his vacuum slash can instantly kill those little spiders with hundreds of thousands of combat power, but in front of the Fire King Spider, he doesn't even have the ability to cause damage.

"Is this the strength of 40,000 combat forces! Damn it! Haoren gritted his teeth, knowing that he couldn't fight hard at the moment, turned around and quickly flew back to the fortress.

"Well, what the hell is going on with that spider with fire all over its body!" The Major asked impatiently.

Haoren's face was expressionless, he took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Major, when you come back from the next hot air balloon, you should evacuate quickly!" ”

"No, how can I go!" The major flatly refused.

Haoren pointed to the approaching spider and sighed: "That's the Fire King Spider, an ordinary-level elite monster with 40,000 combat power, and a 10-level blue copy will be formed here in half an hour." ”

The Major's face suddenly turned to ashes, looked back at the people who were still standing around the city, and asked slowly: "The Magic Hot Air Balloon can only carry 100 people at a time, and there are at least thousands of people here, what should they do!" ”

Haoren's face was gloomy, and his tone was bitter: "Now we have no chance of winning." ”

The major closed his eyes helplessly, groaned for a long time, and when he reopened them, he had already made up his mind, and said calmly: "After the next hot air balloon comes back, you leave with the person with the highest combat power here!" ”

"Yourself!"

The major sighed heavily, and said with a straight face: "I am a soldier, my duty is to guard this fortress, no matter what the reason, the fall of the fortress is my responsibility, I will stay, this is also my last responsibility as a soldier!" ”

Haoren opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

The two looked at each other wordlessly for a long time, and Haoren smiled bitterly: "I understand, then I will leave here with the person with the highest combat power in the future!" ”

"Thank you!" The Major gave him a grateful look and turned to make the final arrangements.

In order to prevent serious disturbances in the fort, the major did not relay Haoren's words to the others, and when the hot air balloon returned ten minutes later, he just silently selected some of the most powerful people and asked them to board the hot air balloon immediately.

"I'll leave the rest to you!" The major smiled and patted Haoren on the shoulder, and at some point he had already taken off all his cloth armor and equipment and replaced them with an old but very clean military uniform.

Looking at Haoren's confused gaze, the major laughed in a low voice: "It's futile to do anything in the face of elite monsters, at least at the end, I want to die in a military uniform!" ”

Haoren's eyes were a little moist, and he pursed his lips, any comfort at this moment was hypocritical, he nodded heavily, and said in a deep and solemn voice: "Although I can't deal with the Fire King Spider for the time being, believe me, I will definitely destroy this guy!" I swear! ”

"Hehe, I believe in you!" The major looked at the heavy man who was about to board the hot air balloon again, and smiled: "You too, don't die!" ”

People who don't know the details just think that this is a routine parting speech, but they don't know that this is the final goodbye.

The magic hot air balloon slowly rose into the air, driven by a burst of heat, flying forward like the wind and waves, Haoren also sat in the cabin, this was the first time he sat in the magic drive, but he didn't want to experience the feeling.

Haoren slowly informed everyone in the ship of the appearance of the Fire King Spider, which immediately caused an uproar.

"No! We can't leave the major behind! ”

"Let's go back now!"

"The Major must be rescued!"

…… Haoren's eyes were red, and he roared angrily: "Shut the fuck up for me!" Don't you even understand the last honor of a soldier? Whoever dares to mention the return voyage, I will kill him! ”

The crowded hull suddenly fell silent, they were not idiots, recalling the words that the major said before leaving, they all understood that this was the major's own choice.

The Major stood on the fortress, watching the magic hot air balloon quickly disappear into the distance, and the Fire King Spider didn't seem to bother with what was above his head, and aimed directly at the fortress.

He breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at the remaining thousands of people, and said ashamedly: "I'm sorry everyone, if there is really a prefecture, I will apologize to you when I get there!" ”

The Fire King Spider was already very close to the fortress wall, only to see it open its mouth wide, and a crimson flame shot straight out, and within a few seconds of contact with the black iron layer outside the city wall, it easily melted this incomparably hard metal layer into a large hole.

With the shrill whistling of the Fire King spiders, as if the horn of a final assault had been launched, all the spider monsters frantically poured into the fortress from the melted hole.

Until this moment, the remaining people in the fortress finally came to their senses, and the magic hot air balloon would not return, and the fortress would soon cease to exist.

They didn't care about the Major's choice in anger, and the dense spider army was already pouring in on them.
