Chapter 155: The End of the Road
Screams rang out one after another.
Faced with the threat of the Soul Mage, the Shadow Mages were like a fish in water and slaughtered to the second floor.
In front of them were magicians, professionals, and ordinary soldiers...... But there is no one enemy, because humans can defeat them, but they cannot attack the elusive ghosts.
To the average person, a shadow mage is a ghost.
Vega followed at the end, waiting for an opportunity to make up for the professionals and ordinary soldiers who slipped through the net, the only pity was that the magician was a sought-after commodity, and he killed it before he arrived at the front line, and even the professional he only made up for 3 knives.
Although there was some regret in his heart, Vega did not regret it.
While killing professionals and mages can increase their strength, gain skill points, and get the most military exploits, the harvest comes with danger, and the few shadow mages who rushed to the front now can't even find the bones.
And these military exploits are just small heads.
What really cared for Vega was Bruno's head.
As long as he grabs Bruno's head, the first credit of this operation will be his, and if this war can be won, not to mention anything else, with his performance so far, it is time to be promoted to a mid-level officer.
In the Third Army, middle-level officers were officers above the deputy regimental level and below the brigade level.
Therefore, Vega's goal is very clear, these small fish and shrimp can be dispensed with, but Bruno's head must be cut off by his own hands, even if it is a teammate, don't want to hinder him from getting promoted.
In the middle of his thoughts, the defense line on the second floor was shattered.
However, there was no Bruno on the entire 2nd floor, so the Shadow Mage squadron continued to advance towards the 3rd floor.
The strongest defense line on the first floor was pulled out, and there was no effective defense force on the second floor at all, so this time it broke through the defense line directly in less than 5 minutes to reach the third floor.
Along the way, mutilated limbs and arms were broken everywhere, and this was simply a one-sided massacre.
————
Above the rooftop.
Bruno sat in a chair with a goblet in his hand.
He sipped red wine gracefully, without the slightest sense of the urgency of war, and stood beside him his new assistant, as well as the superior magician who was maintaining the guardian of the firmament.
The strength of a magician is directly proportional to his age.
This high-ranking magician was already gray-haired, and it could be seen from the other party's sick body that he didn't have a few years to live.
But none of that matters.
Because next, he is likely to die one step ahead of this high-ranking magician.
As for why......
He really didn't calculate that Foster actually had a chance to transfer the Shadow Mage squadron back to Kareni.
The prestige of the Shadow Mage Squadron naturally needs not be said.
Bruno was afraid that Foster would transfer back to the Shadow Mage Squadron, so he asked the First Airborne Division to strictly guard the four gates of Kareni, and even sent a rare and precious Spirit Mage.
But even this tight defense allowed Foster to transfer back the troops.
Things have developed so far, it is no longer in his control, if this war is to be compared to a board game, then he relied on surprise at the beginning to make Foster suffer a big loss, but Foster relied on his veteran experience to completely checkmate him.
And there is nothing wrong with it, it is checkmate and not general.
If he is the king on the chessboard.
So now the only remaining guard force is this high-level magician, but the high-level magician needs to maintain the magic "Sky Guard", and this high-level magician has no problem protecting himself, but he can't spare his hands to protect him at all.
If you remove the Guardian of the Firmament, you can repel the Shadow Mage squadron.
But without the Guardian of the Firmament, I'm afraid that the temporary command will be wiped out in an instant under the high-level magic of the Imperial Army.
So this is checkmate, not general.
Bruno looked in the direction of the Imperial Army, and Foster was clearly telling him that even if you start the game and even give up the initiative in the game, you are still not my opponent.
To advance is to die, and to retreat is to die.
Knowing that he was dead, Bruno gave up struggling, and he quietly tasted the red wine in his hand, which was especially delicious and fragrant before dying.
Bang bang bang –
The sound of battle in the corridor had reached the rooftop.
Bruno knew that his time of death was near, so he took the last sip of red wine, and then lifted the cross-sword next to his chair: "Even if I lose, I will lose to make Foster gnash his teeth." ”
Turned his head to look at the senior magician.
Bruno gave the last order: "Mr. Allen, once the Imperial Shadow Mage Squadron attacks, please remove the Sky Guard, and I will die with this Shadow Mage Squadron." ”
"The kingdom will remember you, Chief Bruno. ”
"The kingdom will be victorious. ”
Bruno returned a military salute: "After my death, the command will be handed over to you, you can temporarily retreat with the troops, this battle of the imperial army is full of cards, I think with the strength of the kingdom, there will be no way to target." ”
At this, Bruno smiled sarcastically.
Even if he wins, what can he do, in the final analysis, he is not the protagonist of the Kingdom Army, in order to kill him, an insignificant little person, he actually exposed all his hole cards, what is the difference between this and looking for death.
He, Bruno, did lose, but the kingdom had already won.
Bang!
At that moment, a loud bang echoed.
The door to the roof of the building was slammed open, and even though there was no half figure in front of him, Bruno knew that it was the Shadow Mage Squadron that had arrived, and that his time of death had finally arrived.
At the moment when the door was slammed open.
The high-ranking magician Alan also stopped maintaining the Guardian of the Firmament.
He stood in front of Bruno with a serious face: "Chief Bruno, please stay behind me, there are 27 shadow mages on the opposite side now...... No, it should be 28. ”
Vega, who was huddled behind the door, stared at him, and he met the eyes of the superior mage.
Obviously, the high-ranking magician has made him a key target of defense, and it will be a little difficult to take Bruno's head in this case, but there is a saying that wealth is in danger.
Teammates also launched an attack at this time.
And the moment Vega waited for finally came, that is, taking advantage of the friendly forces to attract firepower, he took advantage of the situation to take the head.
More than 20 shadow mages attacked at the same time, and some of them even had mid-level shadow mages, so even the upper mages did not dare to hold it up, he was strictly guarded, and seemed to be ready to take Bruno out of the battlefield.
This kind of thing is certainly not allowed.
Several shadow mages consciously blocked the retreat of the upper mage, but they lost their lives because of it, but their death was not worthless, because the upper mage Alan finally revealed his flaws.
The moment he saw the flaw, Vega realized that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had arrived.
