If you don't fight on the front line, you don't know where the battle situation will be difficult. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is the biggest problem that any commander will face.

Therefore, many commanders in history have preferred to direct operations from the front line.

The current situation makes me want to do this.

"Cavemen appear on Peak 6"

"The Shiraki family detachment that just arrived, a total of 30 people, has already been engaged in sniper warfare"

Although elves like to name all sorts of things.

But this will not cover the rolling mountains on the western border.

So now you can only use the number to identify each mountain.

The red zone, which symbolizes cavemen, is getting bigger and closer.

It's like an ant that smells honey.

A steady stream of elven defenses gathered on the mountain.

At one point, I judged that it was an army of cavemen charging at us.

It wasn't until information came back about the number of enemies that it became clear that these cavemen were only part of the defensive line.

They act like fish in the water at night, and they simply can't cope with it.

"They're attacking Ferry Mountain!"

The herald's tone was filled with utter surprise and trepidation.

When I heard the news, my scalp was numb.

Ferry Hill, as the name suggests, is where the flying boats dock.

It is said to be the only gentle place on the ridge.

If the Northern Legion wants to survive the siege of the cavemen in the dark night, it must have mages supported by the Shiraki family.

And if these mages who came from flying ships wanted to land on the position, they had to be at Ferry Mountain.

"How much!?"

"Hundreds, too many to count, are besieging the top of the mountain"

"Who's in charge of the defense of Ferry Mountain?"

"It's our velvet troops"

The herald of the Velvet family looked a little worried.

"But we withdrew some men from the line and went down to make the chariots......"

That's why.

It was not only the reason why he was worried about rushing to the scene, but also the reason why the cavemen chose to attack here.

It was not just a mistake on the part of the front-line commander who forgot to defend such an important pass......

"Furlong"

I called the name of the elf of the Stone family.

The herald immediately stared at me with a look of glory.

"The Ferry Mountain can't be lost, take advantage of the fact that the cavemen are only tentatively attacking now, occupy it, so that the cavemen don't dare to get half a step closer"

As the elf heard the order, its eyes suddenly turned bright red like molten metal.

"It's what we're good at"

With that, he immediately began to write orders.

After an anxious wait, good news finally came from Dukou Mountain.

The valiant forces of the Shuoshi family firmly guarded this critical location, and the mages of the Shiraki family landed on Ferry Hill in flying boats to join the defensive line.

With magic compensating for it, the elves' disadvantage in night battles was balanced, and the cavemen's offensive began to weaken.

Everyone in the military hall breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, as long as the cavemen's offensive is no longer fatal, most of the troops can take turns to rest.

Preparing for a general offensive tomorrow morning became a priority.

An attendant crept up to my ear.

A bad feeling rushed into my heart.

"There is a case"

His voice was small, as if he didn't want to cause panic.

"Liu Xiao, go to sleep"

As soon as the girl looked at me, she immediately understood what I meant.

"I'll just stay here, I'm not sleepy"

Her eyes were almost closed, but if she wanted to hold on......

"Elle is also ......"

Before I could say anything, Ellie's hand reached behind the back of my neck and grabbed it.

It seems that the little one doesn't want me to do things behind her back.

"Got it"

I motioned to the attendant, and he began to walk out.

I hurried to follow.

Walking out of the military and political hall, everything was shrouded in pure black, making people feel at a loss.

"A patrol of soldiers was killed"

Hearing the news almost made me faint.

There's some kind of ...... in my head Something vague is aching.

Have to...... Check it out.

I have to go.

"Take us there"

Ellie spoke before I did!

"Ellie"

"How?"

The little one turned around and glared at me, and although I couldn't see clearly in the pure darkness, I could understand her mood.

"Please, stay in the military hall and stay with the guards"

I unconsciously reached out and squeezed Ellie's little hand.

Only then did I realize that my hand was ...... I'm shaking.

And this also seemed to startle Ellie, she didn't expect that there was something that could make me so panicked in front of her.

"Please......"

Elle seemed to finally give in, and the little one nodded at me.

Then she jumped off my shoulder and walked back into the hall on her own.

When they walked through the door, they didn't even glance at me.

Her mood ...... I know.

But being able to watch her walk into the light reassures me a little.

"Take me there, I need to see the scene"

"Please follow me"

The squire was also a little panicked, and he tried several times in a row before he opened the Light Charm.

In the Great Black-Purple Enchantment, his magic appeared weak and weak.

We walked up the ladder stone steps leading to the throne, one by one...... It looks familiar.

Seems to have been?

"The Great Library?"

"yes, it's the library"

And then, what's that light up ahead?

It was like fire, but it didn't have the sense of fire and heat rushing into the sky.

Descending the stone steps, we came to the door of the Great Library, which was already surrounded by a group of guards.

The elves got out of the way, allowing me to walk in and see the ...... Firelight.

A cloud of lava, to be exact.

It's about the size of a basketball court, not far from the big library.

It's inside......

The remains of some armor can be seen.

It was almost completely melted by the lava, but it was still recognizable as the kind of golden plate armor reserved for Elgunda's elite guards.

Five people.

All killed.

Belch......

A sensation of pain reached my brain, and the pain was unbearable.

The whole body seemed to be burned by boiling water, and it hurt hotly.

This feeling is...... As if I have experienced ......

The magic that emanates from this pool of lava seems to cause damage to me as soon as it comes into contact with my body.

Burn...... Enchantment...... The wounds left on my body.

The thought of this word makes me feel hot all over.

The figure that had cast the burning spell on me in my hallucinations began to reappear in my mind.

I'm absolutely sure that he did the hellish scene we have before us now.

Pain and pain......

Some of the memories burned by the spell seem to be starting to return.

But.

The last time I was attacked by the Burning Spell was in the Treasure Vault, inside the Relic 'Yellow Spring Stream'.

And this time, the person who was attacked was outside the big library.

The Great Library?

Is he looking for something?

Or rather, what information are you looking for?

In any case, with his presence, my life is like a piece of paper on the wall, and it is gone when the wind blows.

"Everyone evacuate to the military and political hall"

The guards turned away at my words, and they seemed terrified of what was in front of them.

I leaned over to the squire and whispered to him.

"Gather all the guards in the military hall and cancel the patrol."

The elf glared at me.

"Do you want the murderer to continue roaming El Gunda?"

His question made me uncomfortable, but.

"You can also see, now no one seems to be able to stop him, it is safer to hold a group, there is no point in scattering patrols"

The squire was also infarcted, and he understood that this was indeed the case.

"In addition, send three flying ships over and stand by in the port of the royal city."

The attendant looked at me with a look of astonishment, as if to question me, should I escape?

"If there's danger, at least, let Ellie escape......"

The elf suddenly realized.

How important the regent is to the army as a whole.

Dragons can't be without a head.

"I see"

Walking briskly back to the military and political hall from the stone steps leading to the sky, a trace of whiteness had already appeared on the ceiling.

"How?"

Ai Li sat on Liu Xiao's shoulder, and the two of them stood at the door waiting for me to come back.

The little guy asked me with expectant eyes.

Bad news can only be reported to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

This feeling of powerlessness made me so depressed that I couldn't speak.

I shook my head.

Ellie's face was suddenly disappointed.

The ears drooped in response.

I looked up at the sky, the darkness of the early morning was almost over, and dawn would soon fall on the world of auroras.

Just to get to this point, we have all done everything we can and used up countless resources.

There is no time to sigh.

Because when the dawn actually descends on these mountains, it is for us that the battle really begins.
