When the morning sun fell on the earth again, the refugees on the tree-lined lake woke up from their nightmare and silently began to pack their bags and head south along the avenue. (For the latest chapter reading, please visit)

At first, only the underage students of the public colleges and the mercenaries responsible for their protection gathered here, but then other refugees joined in, and by daybreak the number had reached more than 3,000.

There are tens of thousands of Isttalon who have left their homes, and the vast majority of them have no clear destination at all, they just see the crowd here and subconsciously come close to seek refuge, in fact, they probably don't know the identity of the actual leader of this team.

Tiana did not consider herself suitable for the role of a leader, but at such times she had no other options. Originally, she just wanted to save the academy students who called her teacher, but she didn't expect to collect so many refugees. The refugees who have fled from Istalon are almost all elderly, women and children, who have no capacity for self-protection and are a complete burden.

Relative to the sheer number of refugees, the power she wields is much thinner. Except for the students who could only play tricks and the mercenary groups that paid for it, only the young and strong laborers in the caravan under the old merchant Jupiter could barely master it, and in fact there were less than 300 people who could constitute combat power.

In the girl's plan, there should also be a retreating army to join them. The force did arrive as expected, but they lost their commander.

El sat alone in the back of the carriage, looking out at the northern sky, drinking alone. Even though he had left Istalon for half a day, he could still see the flames burning in the city from afar.

The super-massive meteor fire shower released by Ranga Akarin has ended, but the flames in the city have not been extinguished, and human resistance continues. At dawn in the morning, El also saw the concentrating crystals on the Academy's towers once again emit devastating rays of light.

Master Stephen was reluctant to leave Isttalen, so he had the Grey Goblin in the kitchen retreat with Lolana and the students, leaving behind himself to release all the constructed creatures. Several other professors in the academy also stayed with him, and together they opened all the mage towers in the academy. The remnants of the human army, relying on the magical defenses of the inner city walls and towers, continue to fight.

The army of the undead had taken over the outer city of Istalon with sheer numerical superiority, but they had no time to stop to replenish the attrition of the army. 【Startup】Her Royal Highness the hot-tempered Princess Dixing has had enough of the smell of corpses, and a fierce conflict has broken out with the forces behind the Cursed Sect. Even if you are more than ten kilometers away, you can feel the terrifying coercion brought about by the battle of the gold-level powerhouse.

However, El has been out of this war, and whoever the final victor is, has nothing to do with him. In short, it is impossible for humanity to win, and he himself has already lost.

He fled the city with more than 200 remnants of the defeated soldiers he had saved from the battlefield, and joined up with the Paranti, who was waiting outside the city and refused to leave, and together they had assembled 500 soldiers who could afford to carry weapons, which was the only remaining regular army of Istalen.

Although everyone had endured the most brutal battles and it was a pure fluke to survive, the honor of being a soldier made them feel ashamed of their behavior of enduring humiliation and stealing their lives, and this shame was deeply engraved in everyone's hearts, leaving them breathless, and a depressing and dreary atmosphere brewed in the ranks.

Elle had already found a reason for them to live, that is, there were more and more refugees around Tiana, and the refugees in Istalon needed to be protected, otherwise it would be difficult for them to survive in this cruel world. However, he himself suddenly couldn't find a reason to get out, because the girl he wanted to protect was no longer there.

He put his troops under the command of Tiana and slipped into the Grey Goblin's carriage by himself. These professional chefs did not forget to pack up their own kitchen utensils and materials when they escaped, and moved almost the entire kitchen of Master Stephen to the carriage.

The outside of the gray goblin's carriage looked a full circle larger than a normal carriage, and the inside of the carriage had been expanded by magic at least five times, enough for the Wesley Black Pepper family to live on. The saddles of the four bantams that pull the cart are all engraved with a hidden array of magic patterns to lighten the burden on the horses. Although it didn't seem to be very steady, when in fact it was in the carriage, it didn't feel the slightest bump.

In fact, few people know that gray goblins are also highly intelligent beings capable of using magic, but the race's obsessive pursuit of food has led people to subconsciously ignore their true talents. It's not surprising that if they didn't have enough magic to make the mage look the other way, how could they be invited to cook in the tower.

Lolana was placed in the most comfortable position on the carriage, with fluffy alfalfa grass underneath her body and boxes of tomatoes and eggs next to her—space was tight, but at least the onions and carrots had been moved somewhere else. Master Stephen transferred the Grey Goblins' contract of employment to her, so Lorana is now the owner of the Grey Goblins.

The eldest lady's condition is not very good, although the injuries on her body have been treated in time, but she has not woken up from a coma, because of excessive blood loss, her face is extremely pale, and she can't eat and supplement nutrition if she can't wake up, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover for a while.

In terms of identity, El can be regarded as half the master of these gray goblins, so he hid here. Another reason, of course, was that he had found a lot of good wine in the carriage of the Grey Goblin. While the other refugees were gathering food, the little ones had emptied all the stocks in the tower's storeroom, including Master Stephen's, with the tacit consent of Master Stephen.

Earle turned a blind eye to Mr. Wesley's Black Pepper complaints that "good wine is king" and unilaterally claimed to have taken the good wine for himself. He used to drink hardly much, but now he always wanted to get himself drunk with alcohol, alcohol can make people excited, it can make people's brains numb, and the last point is exactly what El needs, he doesn't want to think about anything with his brain now.

Shirley, who calls herself the Dark Templar Guardian, just says something strange and leaves with Marivian after meeting in the underground waters, leaving El a little confused. The mysterious girl in black seemed to have deliberately stayed there waiting to meet him, but she didn't reveal her true intentions.

"El, we're the same kind of people......"

When El asked, the girl laughed and didn't answer, leaving him a note to read after he had calmed down.

I don't know why, El is particularly concerned about the rainbow that the girl said, he only remembers that he seemed to be in a certain dream in a coma, but he can't remember the picture of that dream at all, only the gorgeous rainbow that cannot be described in words, left a deep impression on his mind.

Now that he was idle, El took out the note from his bosom, and looked at it carefully in the early morning sun, leaving only a line of delicate small words on it-

"Be careful not to let the apostles notice your presence, or Ixtalen's yesterday will be your future. ”

El was already a little numb and his mind didn't have the strength to figure out what it meant, so he scratched his head, didn't think about it, took the note into his arms, picked up the bottle and poured another big sip of wine.

A small, snow-white hand reached past him and snatched his bottle away. El looked up in a daze, and saw the magician girl with a frosty face. She had spent the whole night last night rehousing refugees, barely resting, and she didn't even know where the veil covering her face had been lost, revealing a spider-like red scar on her face. Because they often met, El had long been surprised, and he could still see the tired look on her face.

"Everyone is so busy, you are hiding here to drink?" Tiana glared at the slacking El in annoyance, and said angrily, "Don't forget that you are now the last general of Isttalon!"

"Everybody knows what's going on. El shook his head with a wry smile and tried to take the bottle, but Tiana threw it to the ground with a flick of her hand.

"I know you're not happy, but please cheer yourself up. Tiana said seriously: "Every refugee gathered here is the relatives of the soldiers left behind in Istalen, and their mood is as sad as yours. Have you ever wondered how she would face her life if you were dead and Tika had survived?"

The expression on El's face froze.

"What do you think you have to hide here and drink?Did you ever think about how the warriors of Istalon stayed in that city to fight the enemy to the death, buying time for their wives and children to escape? Now that they're all dead, and their Tika is right next to you......"

"Shut up, I don't need you to teach me how to behave!" exclaimed El.

"I don't want to say that...... I can understand your feelings because I have had the same experience. Tiana sighed, a sad look on her face, but quickly regained her firmness: "But we don't have time to waste, and we don't have enough manpower to organize so many refugees, El, I need your help, can you please help me?"

"I'm just a rough man, what can I do to help you......" Er's muttered to his feet, the girl's words had already been said for his part, and there was no reason why he should not agree.

There is still a long way to go, and there is no end in sight, but the responsibility he needs to shoulder is extremely heavy. (Go read OM) (Jiangsu.com)
