Chapter Seventy-One: After the Tornado
The storm continues.
People's confused eyes flashed with the last glimmer of hope for survival.
It has swept over so much that it has obscured all the good things of the past.
Ai Suyan shook his head and looked at Shaka beside him.
"It can be seen that the military spirit of Silver Wing has long been scattered. The prince said lightly.
"That's true. Shaka's brows furrowed slightly: "But I heard that you are also a Silverwing, do you mean that you have never missed your hometown?"
This question came very suddenly, making it difficult for ordinary people to answer.
But the prince only waved his hand indifferently, and he digressed from the subject: "You know, the walls cannot protect us all, so please be careful. ”
However, after only a second, he noticed the real abnormality in the other party's expression.
"My father once told me not to be friends with a real Silverwing. He saw that Shaka's eyes suddenly flashed with tears, as if some kind of emotion rippled in his heart.
Ai Suyan looked at him in surprise.
"They are a group of traitors, a group of traitors who have turned away from the original spirit of humanity. Shaka said with some dismay, "If you are indeed from their ranks, then you should serve their king." ”
"And, by the way, why are your eyes so blue?" he continued to ask.
The prince only shook his head slightly, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.
"But, have you ever seen a Silverwing doing his best to protect another?" said Asuyan for a long time, and suddenly defended himself without hesitation.
"But—" Shaka was about to continue, but was interrupted by a voice from Essusyan.
"The Silverwings are not a bunch of self-depraved creatures, trust me. The prince's voice was soft and powerful: "As for my eyes, they retain the rare color of my family's eyes, which some say look as beautiful and generous as a clear sky. ”
"As a lonely traveler, only by turning the longing for hometown into motivation can sooner or later all the disasters be eliminated..."
The eloquent Prince of the Silver Wings seemed to be relieved of everything in front of him.
Shaka just looked up at the sky: "But, no matter what, this unprecedented storm will still sweep away all the negligence and arrogance on the battlefield..."
Ai Suyan nodded, and then couldn't help but gasp.
I saw that the originally stable Silver Wing Legion front had been scattered like a group of beasts in the blink of an eye.
The storm roared, and a huge sense of oppression stimulated everyone's fragile hearts.
The Silver Wing army outside the fortress city, due to the lack of protection of the city wall, was completely unable to resist this natural force, and countless Silver Wing soldiers who were lifted into the sky by the air currents could only wave their arms to the ground in vain, and their trembling bodies seemed to be torn to pieces by the wind in the next second.
Even the cries of despair became as powerless and small as ants.
In the blink of an eye, the Silver Wing's front had been completely broken from the outside to the inside, and everywhere the tornado vortex swept through, only the strongest was still struggling to hold on.
The Tuyalaf chief at the head of the city breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the defeat of the Silver Wing army will never be washed away today..."
"The most important thing is..."Seeing the whirlpool gradually coming, he also bowed down like an ordinary soldier: "The construction of the city wall can really be said to be just right..."
In the distance, the Silverwing Command Tube gritted its teeth and plunged its saber deep into the ground, then grasped the hilt of the sword to avoid being carried up by the wind: "What a hell of a war, and disasters follow one after another. ”
But then he sighed helplessly: "So, that means that the words made by the soothsayers before the expedition are actually true?"
"In other words, this is a war that should never have been waged in the first place?"
However, after a while, even his voice was completely drowned out by the sound of the fierce wind and waves.
The prince closed his eyes and grasped the protrusion of the city wall with his fingers steadily, when a golden thunderbolt struck down on the city like a lost snake, and under the fierce collision, a piece of masonry was instantly wiped out, and countless drifts of smoke and dust were scattered.
At this time, Ai Suyan could clearly feel that the inner state of the imperial soldiers on the city wall was also not optimistic.
Seconds later, after striking the Silver Wings, the center of the storm finally reached the location of the ramparts.
It's really powerful... In just the moment of contact, several Saint Wing soldiers flew out of the wall screaming.
However, the vast majority of the soldiers clung to the masonry at the head of the city, and then gritted their teeth and stubbornly held on in the wind.
They didn't say a word, but they didn't know that the fortress behind the city walls was now completely chaotic.
Manla looked at the white tents behind him, where a steady stream of soldiers was now pouring in, and one by one they fled to the corners of the walls.
At the same time, all the soldiers were clinging to the walls, and from time to time some complaining curses could be heard.
"I'm thinking about fighting those Silverwings to the death, this weather..."
Then the wind broke out, but the protection of the walls took most of the damage for them.
A thrilling moment passed.
After claiming tens of thousands of lives, the tornado storm finally dissipated inside the fortress. The people who survived the catastrophe looked back and found a surprising scene.
I saw that all the white barracks had now been scattered by the wind.
Essouyan and Tuyarav stood up at the same time, and all the Imperials looking out of the city were pleasantly surprised to find that the survivors of the Silver Wing had all retreated to the rear, looking embarrassed.
"It's hard to imagine that this contest would end in such a way. The marshal shook his head, and after rejecting the squire's suggestion of pursuit, he glanced sideways at Knight William, who was also bitterly wiping his dusty cheeks.
"Behold, the sky is clear again. He looked up to the sky, the look of joy on his cheeks exposed.
"It's over, the victory of the Holy Wing Empire, just like the golden waves in the hearts of the mighty..."
After some time, the prince, Shaka and Guna slowly walked down the city walls, only to find that the reconstruction work was in full swing in the city.
Gunnar was silent, as if the rebuilding of one white tent after another had nothing to do with him.
"I'm leaving. After a long time, he suddenly said unexpectedly.
Ai Suyan looked at him in surprise, "Where are you going?" Also, will Manla come with you?"
"Liuxia Kingdom. Guna glanced at the prince with a meaningful look: "Manla has sworn not to leave me for a few months, so he will not break it easily. ”
"Thank him, then, for me, and his magic. Ai Suyan said reluctantly.
Then, in the blink of an eye, Guna was completely gone.
Shakamai moved lightly, but did not notice a guard in the distance hurrying in the direction of the two.
"The marshal has an order inviting you to go to the central camp where he is at once. ”
Ai Suyan nodded.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed open the gate of the barracks, he heard an impartial voice coming from the front, which surprised Ai Suyan.
"I heard that you captured a Silverwing Janissary on the battlefield? ”
Tuyaraf strolled forward with joy on his face.
"I have reported the glorious deeds of this Imperial Blade to the Imperial Capital, especially your performance, young hero. ”
He said with a fluttering brow, but he didn't notice that a swirling purple glimmer suddenly appeared behind him.
What is this? Ai Suyan carefully observed: the color was very similar to the ones that appeared on the city wall, but why, the people around him were all indifferent?
He rubbed his eyes, but this time even he lost sight of his goal.
Master once said that all members of the Lockedan family have a rare momentary insight into magic... It's not a hallucination, but this fleeting sense of evil is completely confusing...
However, at the moment when he was distracted, Tuyarav had already placed his palm on his left shoulder: "Your heroic performance will surely be favored by the emperor, come, continue on the road to glory!"
"But before that, I want to go to prison first. Ai Suyan said unexpectedly, and the marshal himself was surprised.
Later, under the guidance of the guards, the crowded underground prison of the fortress city welcomed a new visitor.
Located in the lower part of the core of the walled city, there is only an iron gate to connect with the outside world, cold and damp, and there are large and small extremely strong iron cages scattered between the green stone walls, and the cries of the detainees are often heard like resentful spirits, and it is obvious that they have lost the last hope of survival.
"Legend has it that only enemies who are at odds with the Empire are imprisoned here. In the corridor of the prison, Shaka, who had been following the prince, said coldly: "Unless someone pays a lot of money to buy it, they will never see the light of day again except death." ”
"Yes? This is the darkest part of the Walled City. Ai Suyan said calmly, and at this time, a familiar figure caught his eye.
"It's him!" said the prince, with a subtle hint of wave, and then he ordered the guards to open the cage on the left side of the prison near the skylight.
After a while, the cage door suddenly opened.
"You're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time. At the same time, a voice with a calm and dignified tone quietly sounded.
