Chapter 160: Arrival

"Who is it?" The moment the figure appeared, Haodong and the others instantly raised their heads. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 In the middle of the air, a man wearing a purple cloak, a multicolored crown, and a golden staff suddenly appeared in everyone's sight. It's just that this person's figure is illusory, and his face seems to be covered with a hazy halo, which makes people can't see it really.

"Don't be nervous, I just wanted to meet my friends in advance, that's all. The man spread his hands and bowed his head to the people below. Although he was far away, his voice seemed to be close to his ears, and he could hear it clearly, and he was not an idle person at first glance.

"Who are you, did you make the ghost just now?" Haodong said coldly. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that the person in front of him was just a clone, and even if he stepped forward to fight, it was pointless, so it was better to get some useful information instead of going around.

"I won't introduce who I am, but you'll probably get to know it soon. As for the fireball just now, it's just a small greeting gift for you. I have to admit that your strength is far beyond my imagination, which is really exciting. The man said with a smile.

"Damn, then I'll give you a greeting gift too. Zhu Jue snorted coldly, and suddenly a fireball shot out of his hand and hit the man straight at him. But the strange thing is that the fireball passed directly through his body, leaving no trace.

"Hehe, young people are hot. But this is just a shadow of mine, and I advise you not to waste your efforts. If you really want to compete with me, I am waiting for you in the north of King's Canyon. With that, the man spread his arms and disappeared into the air, leaving only a solemn face.

"That guy, what the hell is the origin? Qiushui raised his eyebrows, obviously not surprised.

"I don't know, it's a tough guy anyway. Haodong sighed and said with a frown. Just a doppelganger can make such a big movement, if the main body comes, wouldn't it turn the sky upside down? It seems that this war, I was still too optimistic before. He closed his eyes, tried to feel it, and found that the barrier was gone, and immediately issued an order for the army to take a quick rest and continue on its way. They are now only 300 miles away from the front line, and if all goes well, they are expected to arrive tomorrow night.

The soldiers in the army are also elites selected from various sources, and some are even elders who failed to participate in the selection of the escort team or retired from the escort team, so their physique is also beyond ordinary people, and they quickly recovered from the previous decline. It didn't take long for the troops of the Rain Army to set off again, embarking on the journey to the front line.

Originally, Manchester City was the second largest city after Flame City, and it was a fairly prosperous commercial center. Tourists from all over the world often come here to buy some special souvenirs to go back, or to take a break and experience the local customs. Over time, its population even surpassed that of Yancheng, and the city's territory continued to expand to the surrounding areas with the development of the economy, forming a circular business circle. But these are all in the past, and now Manchester City is full of rebel skeleton flags, and there are heavily armed soldiers coming and going, and there is no longer the same lively scene as before. The former inhabitants either surrendered to the rebels, fled farther south, or died tragically under the butcher's knife. It is precisely because of the abundant reserves of various resources in Manchester City that the rebels have used this place as a base camp and have been dealing with the regular army for a long time, in a vain attempt to find a gap and attack the city.

The First Army of the Yan Kingdom led by Zhan Long was located in Dashan City, about 100 miles south of Manchester City, and had a face-to-face confrontation with the rebels for a long time, and still repelled the rebels many times despite the lack of combat strength. It can be said that without the protection here, Yancheng would have already hung the banner of the rebels. Of course, in addition to the War Dragon's own outstanding combat readiness and leadership, there is another very crucial factor that makes the rebels quite annoyed. That is between the mountain city and Manchester City, the King's Canyon that is nearly 100 meters deep. The reason why it is called the King's Canyon is because it was here that the Fire God led his troops to fight, and it was here that the final game was fought against the final and strongest enemy. It is said that the war lasted three days and three nights, and the canyon was littered with corpses, and there was not even a place to stay. In the end, of course, the fire god won the victory, and beheaded the enemy commander, unifying the country. However, the bloody aura in the canyon permeated for a hundred years before it gradually faded. It is said that until now, whenever the wind and rain are blowing, you can still hear the roar of soldiers fighting in the valley, and I don't know whether it is true or not. In any case, it was precisely because of this natural chasm that the rebel offensive failed many times. The only chain bridge between the canyons had long since been destroyed in the fighting, so the attackers had to climb through this canyon to reach the opposite bank, and it was clear that this was a rather difficult thing to do. But then again, this is also the same for the Yan army, and the two armies are at a stalemate here.

In a blue-roofed building in the center of the mountain city, a middle-aged man in silver steel armor was frowning, scanning the latest battle report with a sharp gaze. Yesterday night, the rebels launched another small sneak attack, and although the sentinels detected it in time and successfully dispatched troops to repel it, it still caused hundreds of casualties. As the battlefields moved northward, the rebels almost no longer took the initiative to attack in recent days, but chose to wait quietly for the arrival of multiple armies, while preparing all the supplies needed for the final battle. However, last night's raid, although not large, at least sent some kind of signal. What the hell is going on, the rebels should have already received the news that our troops have rushed to the front one after another, why do they dare to do such a thing to startle the snake? The man rubbed his slightly gray beard, looking a little puzzled. The candles at the table burned silently, and the yellow candlelight illuminated the man's resolute face. It was late at night, but he was rarely sleepy, and since the beginning of the war, he had maintained two hours of sleep a day. Rao still felt that time was pressing, if the rebels completed the assembly and launched an attack in advance, the strength of a legion alone would be unstoppable, and once this place was lost, it would not be so easy to take it back.

At this time, a soldier ran in in a panic, saluted and said to the man: "Report to General Zhanlong, the reinforcements of the Rain Country have arrived outside the city, please instruct!"

The gloom on the man's face suddenly dissipated, and he stood up and said with a happy face: "Pass my order, open the city gate, and welcome the allies!"
