Chapter 408: The King's Decision

On the central street outside the inner city.

"Then it is even more necessary to build a temporary defense line on the central street, otherwise the people of the other temples will be blocked by the demons if they want to retreat to the inner city, the demons are already powerful, if we are separated and eaten, then there is no need to mention the question of whether we can defend it, and directly consider how to withdraw from Aureth." Ades surveyed his surroundings and turned to Lawne.

"But, we don't have knights or soldiers now. Lawne also found that the situation was very dangerous, not to mention the other temples, those dead riders at this rate, it is likely that even the bishop would not have time to retreat to the inner city.

Adès straightened up, glanced at the guards in the inner city, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You release the Holy Emblem, and then use amplification to urgently recruit people nearby, whoever it is, as long as it can stop the demon's progress." ”

After saying that, Adès said to the two female magicians not far behind him: "Nancy, Yunni will first build a wall here, whether it is stone or earth, first there is an obstacle to stop the dead rider." ”

Nancy came up and glanced at the street, then at the dead riders who were gathering from the end of the street, pulled out several scrolls from the scroll box, and began to cast a spell on the street.

"Stone Wall Technique", "Stone Sculpture" ......

Nancy and Winnie took turns casting spells, throwing more than a dozen scrolls in one go, blocking the intersection to death.

"Houses, those houses must also be blocked, otherwise the Berserker will be able to knock them down with a push. Evis was behind her as she instructed Yunny how to shape the stone walls into a difficult one for the enemy to attack, and under her guidance, a wall thirty feet long. The three-foot-wide temporary wall was formed in the blink of an eye.

"It's not wide enough, it's only three meters. Not to mention the Berserker, even Mia can smash this wall. Adès shook his head. Not satisfied with the width and height of the walls.

At this time, Lawn's voice also echoed in the air: "Comrades-in-arms, retreating soldiers, and dear parishioners, I am Lawn, the priest of the Temple of the Earth Goddess, if you hear my voice, please immediately assemble at the intersection outside the main gate of the inner city."

The east gate has been completely lost, and the demons and death riders are about to attack the central street, and the temple and the inner city gate are about to face a strong attack from the demons.

When you hear my voice, come to your aid and protect our temple from desecration and the inner city from being breached. Protecting wounded comrades can be safely evacuated ......"

Nancy raised her head, glanced at the air, and then said to Adès, "I didn't bring the magic disk that summoned the earth element, so it can only be built to the extent it is now. ”

Ades nodded, there was no way around it, if only he could fill the back of the stone wall with dirt, and then use the turn mud into stone to widen the width of the stone wall.

Lawn's voice was also heard by the people in the inner city, and the captain of the squad stationed in the inner city stood inside the city wall and gritted his teeth and said, "What he said is true?

The soldier next to him said with some hesitation: "The explosion just now ......"

The squad leader punched the city wall with hatred. He roared loudly, "Why don't the old men in the city send troops to help the people outside the city?

"Shall we open the door?" the soldier whispered.

As soon as he said this, there was a silence nearby, and even the squad leader stopped squeaking.

If you open the door. It is a complete violation of the order that has long been issued in the inner city, that is to be killed immediately, who would dare?

Inside the royal palace. With a sad face, Ares III asked the Minister of War and Political Affairs in a depressed mood: "You have all heard the words of the priest of the Temple of the Earth Goddess. What are we going to do?"

The Minister of War and the Minister of War had just been called back, having already offended the king last time. Not daring to squeak now, Interior Secretary Bentinke thought for a moment and said: "Send the mages of the Royal Mage Corps to help, at least establish a line of defense to delay the demon's attack." ”

The king looked back at the mage advisor standing beside him.

It was an old mage with a long gray beard, he bowed slightly, and said to the king: "It's better to provide full support, raise the shield, the function of the mage tower is fully activated, and get rid of all the demons." ”

Bentink's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "The energy of the Mage Tower has been reserved?"

The old mage shook his head and said, "The last time I cleaned up the demons, I used up all the energy of the mage tower, how many days has it been?

The king trembled in his heart when he thought of a group of fire demons rushing straight to the palace, yes, all high-level demons can teleport, if there is no forbidden demon realm, then how can you defend against the teleportation of demons?

"However, if the demon is going to fight a protracted battle, how can the energy of the mage tower be able to sustain it?" Bentink immediately asked rhetorically.

"Raise the shield, give all the energy supply to the shield, and then if there is a surplus, you can support the fight against the demons, if not, then send the mage to the city wall. "The old mage has no choice, who called this place geographically remote, and there are no more senior mages to find.

"Let's arrange it this way, the Minister of War will send out the soldiers of the reserve army to support the priests outside the city to build a defensive line, and Ben Tingkeqing, you will transfer a batch of logistics materials to them......" The king, who had been silent, suddenly waved his hand, and directly asked the two important ministers to carry out the order.

When the two ministers walked out of the hall where the affairs were in charge, the king turned his head and asked the old mage: "The teleportation array must be ready at any time, in case the demon rushes in, you can take the prince and teleport away directly, don't think about the battle situation here." ”

"What about the great nobles in the inner city?" the old mage asked the king calmly.

"Leave them alone, just take the prince away, I have already arranged these things, the fiefdom nobles are dragging their feet, the theocratic nobles want to seize power, Bentinke is still embezzling those logistics materials, I can see through this group of people, just die together." Suddenly, the king vigorously flicked the papers on the table in front of him, and swept everything on the table to the ground, and his expression of resentment was extremely hideous.

The old mage shook his head, but he had seen through the nature of the country in the past few hundred years, and was not at all surprised by the king's current decision.

"You'd better let the prince stay in the magic tower, judging from the loss of the East and West Gates, the demon has the means to break through the energy shield. ”

The successive explosions let the mage know why the demon behaved like this, although he hadn't figured out how the demon knew the weak points on these shields, but it was a fact that the shields would fail after the explosion, and it was estimated that the energy shield in the royal city could not be saved.
