"What's wrong?"

I asked Liu Xiao quietly. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Oh, you're back?"

Liu Xiao's half-open eyes were as calm as water, but they couldn't hide the excitement in her heart.

Because we get along day and night, I can know.

Liu Xiao was feeling excited about something.

“goodjob！”

Liu Xiao gave me and Elle a thumbs up.

Yay?

Oh...... I understood right away.

Liu Xiao also benefited from Elle and shared the magic from this crazy princess.

Therefore, as soon as Ellie's magic power recovered, Liu Xiao would definitely be able to know it as soon as possible.

"Who's the mad princess!"

Ellie raised her voice and shouted at me, and all the elves in the entire military hall fell silent.

"Oh, bastard, are you alright?"

Only then did the city lord raise his head, move his gaze to his daughter, and ask casually.

"Secelia~!"

Ellie complained in a coquettish tone of a daughter to her mother.

Apparently she didn't like to call Sercelia her mother for some reason, preferring to call her by her first name.

This may be because of royal habits, or it may be because Secelia is the lord of Red Cliff City.

But it didn't matter - I glanced at the inductive map on the round table.

On the plains in front of the mountains, there are continuous bright spots.

In normal times, I might think that they are the hallmarks of patches of forest.

But now...... I saw them moving—towards the Dawn Mountains.

Army of cavemen!?

Oh no, it's really bad now.

"It's a lot faster than expected!"

I couldn't help but just say it.

Cecelia's brows furrowed, no wonder her daughter's magic had recovered, and she couldn't care about such a good thing.

If this army really numbered as much as the map suggested, then there were at least 100,000.

Considering the timing of this force's attack, I'm afraid that General Gagantu was among them.

And what's really bad is that there aren't enough men to defend against this force.

The Elven coalition has split in two, and the Southern Army is guarding the Ancient Forest, beware of the 200,000 cavemen there redeploying.

And the northern army is marching to this side, and it will take at least 2 days to reach it.

Even with teleportation magic, there is no way to transfer enough elves.

Even if the Northern Legion, which was now on the march, arrived at Red Cliff City immediately, it would not necessarily be able to withstand the enemy's onslaught—it was night, and there was a command of Gagantu.

"How many troops are there in Red Cliff City now?"

I asked nervously.

"More than a thousand, and all the inhabitants combined do not exceed two thousand"

Secelia's voice was also filled with anxiety.

It is impossible to resist an army of 100,000 with a thousand soldiers.

"Only...... Defend Red Cliff City"

Hold the fort and wait for backups.

"Imps get in the way"

Ellie pushed my head away.

"Guard, guard, guard"

The little guy was very unhappy, and the feeling of dissatisfaction with my strategy came directly from the soul link.

"Liu Xiao"

"Huh?"

"Follow me"

'Wait Ellie, you don't want to go to war, your magic has just been restored'

'You've been active all the time, and you can see that my hands are itchy, are you allowed to be in the limelight and not allowed me to lose my temper?'

'Hey Ellie, you're too direct, too'

"Why are you stunned, don't you go quickly?"

Ellie urged me inwardly.

So I put Ai Li on my feet, took Liu Xiao's hand, and walked outside the military hall.

Serena and several officers came out with her.

Step into a huge tower in the center of Red Cliff City, which is probably the largest building in the entire city.

Follow the stairs all the way up to a large and spacious platform.

A huge catapult is housed here.

'Hey, Ellie, what the hell are you going to do?'

I could faintly see a flame in Ellie's heart, and this was probably her plan.

"Liu Xiao, borrow your elf to come out, I'm going to put a very-big magic"

Liu Xiao's elf?

What do you mean?

Yes!

Skyfire!?

Liu Xiao also tilted his head and stared at Ai Li, not understanding what she meant.

After all, everyone had come to the conclusion that Liu Xiao couldn't control her guardian elves.

The Heavenly Fire Spirit in Liu Xiao's body was just a fragment, and it was completely independent of Liu Xiao.

"Uh...... It may not be right to say that, I should say, lend you my elf."

"Then you put this magic on it"

Liu Xiao nodded suspiciously.

"Little ghost, you come to do the fire control spell"

"yes, I see"

"Protect the whole of Red Cliff City, uh, no, it's bigger, cover this mountain range"

"Huh, don't make a fuss, how can I have so much magic"

"The little ghost is annoying, I will naturally share the magic power with you"

"Uh, if you don't have enough control"

"I can help"

Sercelia-sama volunteered.

"Great!"

Ellie looked excited.

"Call everyone who can control the fire control spell to help."

"Hmm"

Secelia turned to give orders to the people next to her.

Ellie rose from my shoulder and pointed her hand at the plain beyond the gorge.

"The Curse of the White Fire Tunnel!"

Oh, I've heard this spell once, when she was ambushed by Kong Yunlei's men before, and Elle blew a big hole in it on the road.

It's hot!

Ellie's magic instantly became like the solitary light of electric welding.

U-U-U-U

In the distance, the plain sounded the sound of something gathering violently.

And then - very far away, a bright white light shone up from the ground, as if a spotlight illuminated a piece of paper.

Then the white patch expanded rapidly.

Boom - Click, Click, Click-

In the middle of the bright spot, a dazzling white fire rose into the sky, tearing a huge circular crater into the ground.

It wasn't a violent explosion like I've seen before.

The white patch was too large for the explosion to cover the entire area in the first place, so it looked like a chain reaction.

The eruption of flames continued to expand in all directions, until it caught up with the edge of the entire large white circle.

Huge white flames surged out from this immeasurable huge round pit, forming a brilliant and dazzling pillar of fire.

Bang -

The blast of air from the explosion rushed into the mountain pass and nearly knocked me to the ground.

Whew, breathtaking magic.

It is like a violent explosion before the birth of a volcano, and it lives up to its name as a tunnel of white fire.

"Dead girl, we're going to redraw the map again."

Secelia muttered, but she was too calm, could it be that she had often seen Ellie cast this magic before?

However, the hot air that hits us is just an ordinary blast, and it can be used to control the fire?

"Liu Xiao"

The girl walked up and stood beside me, and Elle reached out and squeezed Liu Xiao's hand tightly.

"It's about to begin"

"Hmm!"
