Chapter 47 Retreat without a fight

The fireworks were actually dozens of kilometers away, but seeing the rising purple gas, Romel and Pratt knew that the general trend was gone. This distance is still half a day's march for the army, but for the strong, it is a blink of an eye.

Romel had no idea that the Middle Route Army would come so quickly. He couldn't help but scold: "Doyle, that shit!"

Eternal Night has adjusted the Commander Arrangement once for the Imperial Offensive. The strength of intercepting the Imperial Middle Route Army seems to be the weakest, but in fact, the pressure on the Middle Route itself is already the greatest, and they are equivalent to splitting a road from the center of the Eternal Night Army.

At present, in the arrangement of Eternal Night, it is also the strongest to intercept Haimi, followed by the west lane, and the weakest middle lane. He also transferred almost all of the movable heavy artillery to the side of the White City, hoping to destroy the sharp knives that the Empire had inserted into the heart of the eternal night with the force of thunder.

But no one expected that they would not win such a battle in Baicheng. However, the army of the imperial side came to join the division, but the strongest East Route Haimi had not yet arrived, but the Middle Route Army arrived first.

Romel didn't care about cursing Doyle's incompetence anymore, staring at Carol, quickly calculating the strength of the two sides. In his opinion, perhaps before the strong men of the Central Route Army arrived, there was still a chance to completely solve the battle in Baicheng.

However, what people didn't expect at all was that Pratt suddenly soared into the sky, leaving a sentence in the distance: "Admit defeat, Romyl." ”

"You!!" Romel was almost mad at this moment. The last chance was squandered by Pratt's escape without a fight.

Pratt not only ran away by himself, but also sent out a signal, and several strong men of the Spider Demon Clan also flew up and followed him. Even if it was a little difficult to fly by himself, Pratt did not give up, and the spider silk wrapped around the waists of the strong men under his command and flew away with them.

The strong men of the Spider Demon clan withdrew, and the warriors naturally lost their morale. The surviving Spider Demon warriors retreated outside the city, while the other warriors and powerhouses of all races understood that the tide was turning, and even the Warlords did not intervene to stop them.

Romel gritted his teeth, but he also had to give the order to retreat. He turned around to leave, when suddenly there was a flash of thunder in front of him, and Carol's thunder whip had already struck him head!

Romel snorted, drew his sword, and struck a grid on the thunderwhip.

Seeing this, Carol went all out and whipped the thunder. But as soon as she came into contact with it, she found that the power on Romil's saber was extremely weak, and she was whipped out of her hand. And she used too much force, and there was a gap in the attack, and Romel immediately pierced through the void, and her figure kept flashing, and flew out of the void in the blink of an eye.

The Bloodlines have always been known for their speed, and Romel fled with all his might, and Carol knew that she couldn't catch up, so she didn't bother anymore. It seems that the injury inflicted on Romil by the shot of Thousand Nights is definitely not light, otherwise he would not rather abandon his sword than flee.

The remnants of the forces of the Dark Race fled from the White City like a receding tide and scattered in all directions. At this moment, the mercenaries in the city were powerless to pursue and kill, and the surviving warriors had lost even the strength to cheer.

Several elderly mercenaries stood on the ruins in a daze, looking at the imperial reinforcements rolling in the distance, their faces blank and not the slightest surprise. A mercenary turned his head, and at the corner of the street not far away, there were corpses lying on the ground, there were dark races, and there were also dark fire mercenaries. All the people he knew, they were lying there at the moment.

No matter where you look at it, there are far fewer people standing in Baicheng at this moment than those lying down.

Qianye pushed away a stone slab above her head and stood up with difficulty. His left leg went limp, and he almost fell, and the sharp pain like pins and needles had not been felt in a long time. Without touching it, Qianye knew that the leg bone was broken. This kind of injury, even with his physique and boiling blood state, would take more than half a day to recover.

Romil's counterattack just now was really powerful, and Qianye paid the price of a leg to get out.

It's just that Qianye knows that Romel is definitely not having a good time. The advanced version of the original spear, even if he is a duke, he can't be taken casually. Romel used the Bloodline's secret method to forcibly suppress the injury, hoping to reap the victory. Just doing so will make the injury more violent afterwards, and if nothing else, Romil should not be visible in the rest of the battle on the land.

Pratt retreated, leaving Qianye with a little regret. But Romel is the biggest target.

Song Zining came from the other side, looked at Qianye, grinned, and said, "You also have such embarrassing times......

Before he finished speaking, his face turned pale and he almost fell to the ground.

Qianye stretched out his hand to grab him, looked at the purple fireworks traces in the distant sky that had not completely dispersed, and let out a sigh of relief.

Song Zining took a few big breaths, and after standing firm, he backhanded Qianye, whose balance was a little awkward, and said, "It's finally over!"

Qianye nodded.

Carol appeared beside the two, and just as she was about to speak, she heard a cheer, and Xiao Zhu Ji rushed over, and with a flutter, she pounced on Qianye and Song Zining!

The two of them were shocked, with their current state, how could the little guy stand this pounce? One of them had a strong crossbow, and the other had broken his left leg, and he couldn't even dodge. Carol reacted quickly, hurriedly reached out and grabbed the little girl's waist and cut the person off.

Hearing only a muffled bang, Carol took two steps back with Zhu Ji in her arms. Carol is in good shape now, and her strength has not been damaged in the slightest, and she has been knocked like this. If it is changed for a thousand nights, it may be fine, if it is Song Zining, I am afraid that a few bones will be broken.

During this time of getting along in Valhalla, it seems that the little guy also accepted Carol, and he didn't have a seizure when he was stopped.

Song Zining suddenly said: "Your Excellency Carol, please take Zhu Ji back to Valhalla, and in the next time, unless I or Qianye are present, no matter who wants to board the ship, don't put it in." ”

Carol was slightly surprised, and Chiya frowned imperceptibly, but didn't say anything.

Song Zining caught Qianye's expression change for a moment, and said: "It is indeed the signal of Zhao Valve, but it is not certain whether it is the person who came from Zhao Valve." Valhalla is our only retreat, and we can't afford to lose. ”

"I understand. Chiya nodded.

Carol lifted off into the air with Juggie in her arms, pierced through the void, and returned to Valhalla. Zhu Ji bit her thumb and looked at Qianye and Song Zining with her eyes, maybe she also felt a little tense atmosphere suddenly, and she didn't make a fuss.

As soon as Carol left, an indescribable aura covered the entire White City. This aura is subtle and grand, pure and with a strong breath of blood and fire, and it gives people a rather strange feeling, like multiple breaths that should be incompatible with each other but strangely merge into one.

The breath swept through the white city, and then a figure appeared in front of Qianye and Song Zining. He just stood like that, but naturally became the focus of the audience.

Song Zining's expression suddenly became a little uncomfortable, because as soon as the man appeared, he stared at him intently. In the blink of an eye, Song Zining saw sweat on his forehead, his smile became a little reluctant, and he said, "The fourth prince came so quickly. ”

The person who came was none other than Zhao Jundu, who was known as the first person of the younger generation of the empire.

He looked at Song Zining and said lightly: "With Qishao's ability, how could it not be that it was me who came?"

Song Zining immediately shook his head, "Who dares to count you now?"

Zhao Jundu was unmoved, and said: "You have your own way, you know that it is me who comes." ”

Song Zining smiled bitterly, "You say yes, that's it." ”

Zhao Jundu glanced at Qianye at this time and said, "It's right to be careful, even if it's Zhao Valve's people, they have to be on guard." ”

There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but after Zhao Jundu and Song Zining talked, no one could tell whether it was a counterstatement.

Song Zining looked even more nervous, until Zhao Jundu asked, "What are you nervous about?" Is there something hidden from me?" At this time, he seemed to know that his thoughts had been expressed.

Song Zining immediately shook his head: "I've been with Qianye all this time, what can I hide? Besides, now that I have moved to a neutral place, I have long ignored the affairs of the empire, what can I do?"

Zhao Jundu smiled faintly and said: "Qi Shao is very human, he is thousands of miles away, and he can also influence the overall situation remotely. ”

Qianye saw that the two of them were about to have a stiff posture as soon as they met, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Are you injured?"

"I'm in a hurry on the road, how can I not get hurt?" Zhao Jundu said lightly, but if he was able to surpass the eldest princess of the East Road Haimi and be the first to kill under Baicheng, how could there be an easy battle?

"Qianye's leg is also injured, I'll go find a doctor......"

Song Zining just wanted to leave, but was blocked by two columnar purple flames that appeared out of thin air, only to hear Zhao Jundu say leisurely: "Don't want to slip away! What doctor is more useful than our own Force recovery?"

As Zhao Jundu spoke, he leaned over and touched Qianye's left leg, then straightened up and said, "It's okay." Sit down and fix it, what are you doing standing stupidly? That guy doesn't need your help. ”

Qianye felt that it was better not to speak, so she sat down, found a roll of straps, treated the wound briefly, and wrapped her left leg.

Song Zining knew that he couldn't slip away, so he smiled bitterly: "Then what are you doing now?"

"Of course, it's to study arming. ”

"Arming?" Song Zining instinctively had a bad premonition.

"Behind me, followed by tens of thousands of dark race armies, and a duke. ”

Qianye and Song Zining glanced at each other, and they both became serious. On a battlefield of this level, the person presiding over the side must be a duke-level figure. It is not surprising that there is a duke, but the amount invested is a problem, and the five fleets in the battle of the outer void are all grand dukes, which can be seen.

The number of top powerhouses in the empire is limited, and most of them need to defend their homeland and deal with frontier warfare. In the context of the current suspension of the Holy War within the Eternal Night, even if the Dark Race did not raise the level of the war, the intensity increased, and the Empire's disadvantages in this regard were immediately apparent.

Zhao Jundu smiled and said, "What are you doing like this? Don't say it's a duke, it's just that the prince is coming, and you still have to fight like this?"

This is also true, Song Zining took out a map, opened it and looked at it, and threw it aside. At this moment, the White City is in ruins, and almost no place on the original map matches it.

He found a clean stone slab, dug out a piece of charcoal as a pen, briefly drew a map around Baicheng, and then asked Zhao Jundu: "How many people have you brought in total?"

Zhao Jundu said: "One thousand." ”

Song Zining and Qianye didn't expect that Zhao Jundu only brought this little bit of troops. But it's right to think about it, Zhao Jundu is advancing here at full speed, and it is already remarkable to have a thousand people to follow, which shows the high quality of Zhao Jundu's private army.

Then Zhao Jundu added: "It's all light." ”

This is even worse, meaning that the mercenaries simply don't get the supplies they desperately need.

However, Song Zining didn't take this difficulty to heart, at this time, the ground troops of Eternal Night were also tired, and how much combat power was left was two words.

"Who is that duke?"

"Werewolf Duke Doyle, good at assault and melee combat, a simple-minded guy, and not very well equipped. Zhao Jundu said.

"Didn't anyone deal with him?"

"Wei Guogong fought a few fights with him, and they were basically evenly divided, and they were each injured a little. ”

"Werewolves? I can try to deal with this. "Thousand Nights. This kind of person who is good at hand-to-hand combat,It's Chiya's favorite opponent.。 It's hard for them to dodge the primordial spear of a thousand nights.

"He may not dare to enter the city. Zhao Jundu said lightly.

The three of you studied the defense with every word, but the atmosphere was not tense. Since Zhao Jundu's mid-route army and the Dark Fire mercenaries have successfully converged, most of the battle of floating land has been won. As long as the White City is occupied, the back roads of the hundreds of thousands of Eternal Night troops on the floating land will be cut off, and it will be considered lucky to be able to escape by one or two percent.
