Chapter 158: Palanti's Horn

The wall of more than ten meters high is enough for ordinary people to fall down and shatter their bones, but for a silver-rank powerhouse, it is at most a little bruise. What really hurt Lilwater was the sting in his head.

The scorpion hook on Ranga's tail was not very powerful, but the additional royal power was enough to bring ordinary class earthwalkers back to life. In the social concept of the Landwalker clan, royal power is inviolable, and even the most powerful Landwalker warriors dare not offend the royal cubs - only the royal family itself can kill each other.

Lilwater clutched his head and got up from the ground, his eyes rolling, and he didn't immediately climb the walls to find the vile and shameless human archer. If you want to live long enough as a front-line commander, in addition to the requirements of personal bravery and war experience, you also need to have a certain amount of wisdom and judgment.

In other words, it is necessary to have a certain political consciousness, be able to understand the mind of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and fully demonstrate the prestige of the Legion while also knowing how to stop in moderation and seek the greatest benefits for Her Royal Highness.

Due to the racial nature of obedience, most of the Earthwalker warriors regard this as nonsense, and believe that as long as they obey orders, they are competent, and of course those who think this way will barely survive their second month in this honorable position.

Despite his outward appearance, as a veteran front-line commander, Lilwater actually has a wisdom that does not match his appearance, or can be said to be cunning. Otherwise, there would not be a full-scale attack because Her Royal Highness the princess was about to arrive.

In the military doctrine of the Landwalker Legion, the commander must carefully judge the situation on the battlefield, use the special abilities of each class to cooperate with each other, and avoid wasting the military strength of regular troops. But in Lilwater's opinion, it's all fart. Based on his understanding of His Royal Highness Ranga Akalian, Her Royal Highness's style has always been to do things without asking about the process, only looking at the results. Compared with the sacrifice of the troops, these obstructive ground humans in front of them are more likely to arouse the anger of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

As long as it is a civilized race with intelligence, this kind of bureaucracy will inevitably appear in a long history.

But now the situation has changed, and Lilwater stands under the city walls, silently thinking about it. The fact that the human archer possessed a royal larva, and it seemed to have grown up, was insignificant enough to radically change the nature of the war.

Ranga Akalian's legion of earthwalkers followed Ranga Kalia's clues to the earth, and waged war against the humans on the ground just to clear the field, in other words, to wipe out all possible enemies out of the sight of Her Royal Highness the Princess, to put it bluntly, just to satisfy Ranga Akalian's personal spiritual purity. The previous war order launched by Lilwater was also to please Her Royal Highness, and in fact it could not be regarded as a legitimate reason for war.

The catastrophe of destruction facing Isttalon seemed to the legions of Earthwalkers under the Ranga Aka rosette to be little more than an appetizer for a meal. As one of the most powerful princesses of the underworld, Ranga Akaren has the strength to strategically defy the human city-states.

However, now that there is a royal family of Earthwalkers on the human side, even if it is just a newborn larva, it is enough to escalate the nature of this war into a "royal civil war". According to the ancient tradition of the Landwalker clan, when two royal families stand opposite the battlefield, it also means the beginning of the royal civil war. For the landwalkers, this kind of war is sacred and inviolable, and must be taken seriously.

Lilwater pondered in his mind, and suddenly saw that this was a wonderful opportunity, and he decided to report the matter to the letter, which would surely attract the attention of His Highness Ranga Akalian. Even if it's just a larva, it's a royal larva, and even if it can't grow into a princess, it can at least evolve into a war king bug, and its value is self-evident.

When His Highness Ranga Akaren focused on that larva, the fact that he was not in a good position was not a problem.

Just when the cunning front-line commander had a ghost idea in his heart, a mental wave that erupted from the distant forest suddenly swept across the battlefield, causing both sides in the melee to involuntarily pause for a moment.

Lilwater, who was squatting under the city wall, and El, who was standing on the wall, miraculously achieved the same effect at this moment, that is, a million alpacas in their hearts rushed by.

The princess of the earth has arrived!

Lilwater was terrified that he hadn't made up an excuse for himself, and El had already had an experience that left a serious psychological shadow.

The front-line commander of the Landwalker ran backwards with a sad face and an axe in his face, and if he made Her Highness the Princess impatient, he would not have enough eight lives to die.

The temporary commander of the human race also turned around and ran with a sad face, dragging the axe, and grabbed the Lori Knight who still didn't know the situation on the way, and went straight to the tower. With the presence of the gold-ranked princess of the earth, there is no hope for mankind in this war.

From the very beginning of the war, El and Ahmed have hardly left the tower on the wall, because it is here that the kobold Apache is hiding, and this old god is the best at taking advantage and avoiding harm, which proves that this is necessarily a safe place.

Sure enough, before the battle began, the kobold brought an unexpected surprise to everyone. He took his small shovel and knocked east and west in the tower, and unexpectedly opened the entrance to a secret troop transport passage. For some reason, this secret passage left behind during the construction of the city wall has not been recorded, and even Ahmed, a high-ranking military officer, has never heard of it.

"Sir, we've already checked, and this secret passage leads to the inner city, and there is no problem with good ventilation. A dusty black knight emerged from the tunnel and reported.

"It's good to use it, let the brothers who are still alive on the city wall immediately move closer to this side, all go down, and I will give you the queen of the palace. El patted him on the shoulder.

In just a few moments, the Earthwalker's offensive had slowed down a lot, and El noticed that several silver-rank Earthwalker warriors and their men had quietly broken away from the battle line and retreated, while the ordinary Earthwalker troops and the mass-produced troops that had hatched out were still entangled with the humans to the death.

Losing the pressure of the strong man, the defensive pressure on the human side was suddenly effectively relieved, but the pressure that El felt was not reduced by half a point, but intensified, stimulating every cold hair on his back to stand up.

"Hold your lines down!" Elle shouted at the human soldiers fighting up and down the walls. But on this battlefield where both sides were red-eyed, his voice couldn't reach far at all.

"Let me come, I have a way!" Palanti ran out from behind him, pulling out a small white horn and putting it to his mouth.

"Don't mess with her, Ahmed, watch her!" El shouted impatiently.

"It's a lion's tooth horn, so that everyone can hear it!" Palanti dodged Ahmed's stop and waved the horn twice at El, "What order do you want to give?

"Defend or retreat!I don't care what they think, those bugs are going to play a big game soon!"

Palanti nodded, took a deep breath, and blew the white horn.

"Woo-" The low, powerful sound of the horn echoed under the sky with a certain rhythm, and the seemingly inconspicuous horn was able to play such a piercing sound that it resounded almost throughout the city. Hidden in it is a specific rhythm that is a special command signal for the Isttalon army, and any soldier who can hear the sound can understand the meaning.

There was a brief silence and confusion in the human army, but it was the veterans who reacted first, and they abandoned the position in front of them without saying a word, pulling up the rookies around them and running to the rear.

"Look at the heavens!" Ahmed's exclamation drew El's attention back, and he jerked his head up, horrified to see countless "suns" appear in the sky!

The time is close to dusk, the real sun is already close to the horizon, and the light that illuminates the sky is all burning meteorites! The gates of hell seem to have been opened by a pair of invisible giant hands above Istalon, and countless large and small flaming meteorites pour down from the sky, as if to turn the city into a purgatory on earth.

"It's too late! we're leaving!" El grabbed Palanti's hand and turned to burrow into the tower. As soon as they entered the secret passage, they heard a loud bang behind them, and a meteorite of unknown size smashed on the top of the tower, and the entire tower collapsed.

The dozen or so soldiers who had gathered near the tower before they had time to enter were submerged by the collapsed brick wall in an instant, and those who remained in the tower were directly gone. A large amount of rubble poured in along the entrance of the secret passage, and the unlit secret passage was suddenly plunged into darkness.

The secret passage leads from the city wall to the underground, and the steps are steep and long. Elf didn't have time to gain a footing before he was pushed down by the sand behind him. He subconsciously held Palanti in his arms, using his body as a pad to withstand the bump on the steps.

It wasn't just the two of them who lost their balance, almost all the soldiers who were on the steps couldn't stand on their feet in the shaking, and they were crawling and falling one by one. El had no memory of how many laps he had made on the steps, how many people he had bumped into, only that he had broken at least two of his ribs, and that he had finally stopped, surrounded by wailing and screaming.

"Igniting a fire!Who's going to get up and light a fire!Idiots who came in first don't know how to put a torch?" exclaimed, holding back the pain in his body.

He was about to continue shouting, when his eyes suddenly lit up, and when he looked closely, Palanti, who was held in his arms, actually emitted a faint light. El hurriedly let go of his hand, and found that it was the horn in Palanti's hand that emitted a soft glow, not too bright, but enough to restore vision in the dark.

It's just that I don't see how much function you've added to this for a while?, Elle looked at Palanti dumbfounded, and the little girl wiped her face and smirked. (Go read OM) (Jiangsu.com)
