Chapter 668: Everything withers, and the old man comes
"We have found more than 400,000 bodies of our compatriots who died in the city, and there are no more," replied Secretary of State James, looking up at Wang Xu, who was almost twice his height, and whispered, "I think most of the people in the city left at the beginning of the war......
Through what James just said, Wang Xu roughly understood the casualties on his side: there were originally more than 3 million people in the city, more than 400,000 died, and in the end, there were 1 million left, that is, in the early days of the war, more than 1.6 million people fled here and went into hiding.

"Wow...... Great, thanks to their smart and decisive escape, otherwise, the current casualties are much more serious than here......" After realizing that the outcome of this war was much better than he expected, Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and gently patted James's shoulder, encouraging him: "It's hard work......
"Hmph!" the Elf King snorted coldly, "Those who flee are traitors! The Imperial City was invaded by the enemy, they didn't want to resist, but they fled here, are they still worthy of being an elf......
Obviously, due to the difference between the identity and Wang Xu, the Elf King and Wang Xu also have diametrically opposite perceptions of this matter.
For Wang Xu, the people of the Elemental City are really compatriots, and it hurts to die a single one, and for the Elf King, everyone in the Elemental City is his subordinates and must die for him, and those who flee are traitors in his eyes.
After understanding the difference between his position and that of the Elf King, Wang Xu also knew that it was impossible to persuade the Elf King with his own position and point of view, so he did not open his mouth to do this useless work, but continued to analyze the Elf King on the previous topic: "If we have a million people on our hands, plus 100,000 Janissaries, it is estimated that we can hold here, but the casualties will be very heavy, at least half of the people will die, but if we move to the border, then we can keep most of the people!"
"Say, are we going to get out of here, or are we ......" The elven king in the tangle, looking down into James's eyes, asked him in a low voice, "Give you five seconds to answer, five, four......"
"It's better to leave, even if we stay, with our current morale, we will be very difficult to hold!" James pleaded with the Elven King, "Let's move to safety, that's our only way to live!"
"Alright, you go out!" Even though James had already given the Elven King's answer, he still didn't make it clear.
"Yes, Your Majesty......" After listening to the elven king's eviction order, James slowly retreated to the door of the tent, and sighed softly before opening the tent and going out.
"Do you really have to leave......" As James left, the Elven King looked up at the magic chandelier on the top of the tent and muttered to himself.
"Yes, father, for the sake of the future, you must endure for the time being, if you are still lucky, then, we may ......" Wang Xu did not say the worst outcome, but the elf king already knew what Wang Xu wanted to say.
"Alright, just follow your plan, migrate!" Finally, the elven king was no longer obsessed, and he was about to migrate.
After listening to the elf king's order, the shadow standing beside him quietly glanced at Wang Xu, and the corners of his mouth curved a secret arc.
"Then I'll go out and make arrangements......" Since the Elf King has made a decision, then Wang Xu is ready to go out to help the Commander of the Praetorian Guard arrange the evacuation.
However, before Wang Xu had taken two steps, the Elf King stopped him with a loud voice: "You stay here, the general of the Praetorian Guard is responsible for the affairs outside, if he doesn't do a good job, it is his responsibility, I will remove him!"
"Yes......" understood why the Elven King had left his own Wang Xu, returned to the pine round table again, and sat down on the back chair.
The king knew that if he left, then the elf king would have to continue to stare at Nilou and not treat each other well, and the elf king would not dare to provoke Nilou and them, so in order to avoid embarrassment, the elf king would keep his own.
"Huh......" Just as Wang Xu was about to open a new topic to divert the attention of the elf king and prevent him from thinking nonsense, suddenly, Catwoman Gillier exclaimed.
After hearing Gilill's exclamation, not only Wang Xu, but also the Elf King and the Shadow also turned their eyes to the conference table, and in an instant, they discovered the reason for Gilill's exclamation.
I saw that the vegetables on the plates that filled the conference table began to wither inexplicably, and the green spinach and yellow cabbage hearts dried up and shrunk into a lump of inexplicable dark gray dehydrated vegetables, and then, the dehydrated vegetables on the plate dried up and cracked into ashes, and then, the ashes quickly disappeared.
Gradually, the tent was filled with the smell of almonds, and Wang Xu, who smelled this smell, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Since the old man is here, don't pretend to be a ghost, welcome to ......."
Before Wang Xu's words fell, under the gaze of the Elf King and the Shadow, a pillar of red smoke gushed out from the ground in the center of the tent like a volcanic eruption, and soon, the pillar of smoke changed from sauce red to miserable green, and then from miserable green to dark black.
In less than ten seconds, the pillar of smoke gradually dispersed, and a figure almost the same height as the tent, with a body thinner than the wooden pillar in the tent, appeared at the position of the pillar of smoke.
The person who came was Golia, the plague goddess who secretly cooperated with Wang Xu, and Wang Xu didn't know what this guy was doing when he came to him so soon, after all, the two had only met ten days ago.
After raising her right hand with thin fingers like iron wire, and hooking a backrest chair casually, Goliath dragged the backrest chair to Wang Xu's side, and after putting down the backrest chair, Golia, who was more than five meters tall, sat next to Wang Xu, and looked up at the elf king on the throne and the shadow standing beside the elf king.
Feeling the soul power surging around Golia, looking at her bloodless face, the elf king knew very well that the woman opposite him was not a living person, but a soul with some strength.
After looking up and down the trumpet-like cloak that Goliath was wearing, and glancing at Golia's melon seed face, which was more melon seeds than melon seeds, the elf king asked the king in a voice, "Who is this friend?"
"Plague goddess Golia!" Without any foreshadowing, Wang Xu directly told the elf king about Golia's identity.
As soon as he heard Wang Xu say the name that was almost equivalent to a killing star in the Loren world, the elf king, who had always been quite steady, was frightened and his body instantly softened, if it weren't for the shadow secretly holding the elf king's waist and eyes, the elf king would have to be soft on the throne.
It is estimated that the shadow holding the elf king did not realize that his legs were also shaking greatly, and it seemed that he was also scared enough......
