"My lord!" rang out the voices of the guards outside the tent. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Come in. Langning didn't stop flipping through the dossier, and said casually.

The guard lifted the curtain and walked in, "My lord, someone wants to see you. ”

"See me?" Lang Ning raised his head and glanced at the guards unhappily, "You forgot what I said?" As the commander of the legion, Lang Ning was an upstart under Han Jin, so naturally there were many people who wanted to have a relationship with him, but Lang Ning had always been insensitive to this kind of thing, and he gave an order when he was overwhelmed, and all the inconsequential people were gone.

"Not so, sir. The guard said with some embarrassment, and had already scolded the person who reported the news half to death, "That person said that there was an emergency military situation, and I ...... it."

"Urgent military situation?" Lang Ning frowned, where is there any military situation around the Holy Crown City at the moment, the nearest one is the war on the side of the Free Federation, thinking of this, Lang Ning began to be a little nervous, "Let him come in!"

The guard breathed a sigh of relief and hurried out, and a moment later, a middle-aged man with an honest face dressed in a half-worn gray cloth robe walked in.

The man in gray stood in front of Lang Ning without humility or arrogance, as if he didn't realize that he was facing a legion commander who held the power of life and death, but as if he had seen an old friend, he smiled and bowed, "Lord Lang Ning?"

"Do you know me?" Listening to the other party's tone, Langning couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at the man in gray a few times, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, and what made Langning strange was that he couldn't see the kind of decisiveness of the soldier from the other party, such an inconspicuous person, thrown on the street, would be overwhelmed by the crowd immediately, it was just ordinary to the extreme.

The man in gray didn't answer Langning's question right away, but turned his head to look at the guards behind him.

"You go out first. Langning said to the guards knowingly, and after the guards went out, he set his eyes on the man in gray, "Please sit down, can you talk about it now?"

"First of all, shouldn't you prove that you are Ronning himself?" the man in gray naturally stepped aside and sat down, but the words he said made Ronin's eyes narrow into a line.

The man in gray didn't seem to notice Langning's fierce gaze, and even had the leisure to pick up the water glass next to him and take a sip gently.

At this time, Langning already felt that things were a little weird, the person in front of him was either a madman or had other plans, and he came to my barracks to let me prove myself? It sounded like a joke, but Langning's expression gradually became solemn, and if something went wrong, he must be a demon, and there must be some special reasons for this.

"If you feel it is necessary, this is my seal. Ronning slowly pulled out the seal and placed it on the table.

After the man in gray stepped forward and looked at it carefully, he handed the seal to Lang Ning with both hands, "Please forgive me for my rudeness, Lord Lang Ning, the stakes are really high, and I can't be cautious." ”

"Isn't it my turn to ask, then, who are you?" asked Ronning, putting the seal back in his arms.

"I'm pollen. The man in gray smiled weirdly, and such a smile appeared on his honest face, inexplicably showing a hint of mystery.

Lang Ning was stunned, and then nodded slowly, as if he had expected the answer, but in fact, the doubts in his heart were even greater, pollen? What the hell is that?! However, this is definitely not the time to ask questions, even if Lang Ning has big questions, he can only bury them in the bottom of his heart.

Lang Ning's reaction fell in the eyes of the man in gray, and Lang Ning's identity was more and more confirmed.

"Lord Leonardo, I have asked you to inform you that Prince Johnson will be leading a demon team to attack Crown City in the next few days, so please be prepared to respond at any time. The man in gray said, his eyes showed a sense of eagerness, he had been lurking for so many years, and finally waited for this day, he couldn't help but be excited.

"Is there anything else?" Ronning asked expressionlessly, but he had already set off a storm in his heart, attacking the Holy Crown City?!Who is Leonardo?Who is Prince Johnson?and, why did this guy run to tell himself? Countless questions made Lonning almost out of breath with nervousness, but on the surface he still had to try to make a calm appearance.

"No, as you know, emergency communications are destined to not deliver too much information while maintaining high efficiency. ”

"Don't you even have an exact time to attack?" Ronning's voice carried a hint of nervousness, he could already tell that the person in front of him belonged to a kind of spy agency, such people had undergone severe training, and torture was of little use to them, and the only chance was to ask as many things as possible here.

"It's a shame that Mistress Leonardo only told me so much. Perhaps still in the midst of excitement, the man in gray didn't notice the slight strangeness in Ronning's tone.

"I know what to do. After pondering for a long time, Ronning really couldn't think of any good way to ask more things without arousing the suspicion of the other party, so he had to say an ambiguous word.

"Then, Lord Ronning, I will take my leave, and wait for your good news when I return. The man in gray saluted and looked up at Langning.

In this case, Langning had no choice but to stand up against his will, walked over and patted the shoulder of the man in gray with a smile, "You are wrong, it is good news for us." ”

"That's right, our good news. The gray-clothed man's eyes were full of smiles, and the two looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

The only difference is that the man in gray laughs happily, while Langning's heart is entangled.

After the man in gray left, Langning immediately called the guards in, "Find a few more people, be smart, keep an eye on him for me, and report to me at any time!"

After the guards ran out in confusion, Ronning didn't even have time to pack the files on the table, so he rushed out of the camp tent with a piece of clothing haphazardly.

Half an hour later, Guevara, who was sitting in the city lord's mansion, met Lang Ning, who looked nervous.

"What?!" Guevara exclaimed, and there was a loud bang in the living room, and Guevara's reaction was far more exaggerated than Ronning had imagined, and the wise old man, who was usually unfazed, knocked over the table in front of him as if he had heard a shocking secret.

"You ......" Langning was also a little confused, even if the news was true, although Han Jin was not there, but with Guevara and Jaydis in charge, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the Holy Crown City was an impenetrable fortress. So a large part of Langning's nervousness actually comes from the upcoming war, and it has been a pity that Langning has not been able to follow Han into the Free Federation, and this news makes Langning feel that he has a place to use again, and he is actually a little excited in his heart.

"What about the messenger?"

"I've sent someone to keep an eye on him, but I don't dare to do it, whether the news is true or not, I'm afraid it's useless to torture such a person, I want to see if I can find anything through him. Ronning replied.

"The news is true!" Guevara took a deep breath, "It's impossible for ordinary people to know the name Johnson. ”

"Who the hell is he?" looked at Guevara's cautious expression, and Ronin became more and more curious.

"Prince Johnson, his alternate identity is the brother of the Great Demon Donald!" Guevara said word by word.

"What...... What?!" With another loud bang, Ronning's eyes widened, and he reacted in the same way as Guevara, and stood up with a brush, knocking over the chair he was sitting on.

"You go to Jaydis first, and I'll go right away. Guevara didn't care about Ronning, who was still in shock, and then turned and walked into the hall.

"My lord, could it be...... Mischief?" Lang Ning said with difficulty.

"As I said earlier, it is impossible for ordinary people to know about Prince Johnson!"

"But...... But...... Why did he send us the news?" Lang Ning muttered, and then his expression changed drastically: "He said he was pollen!...... It's the Hell Aster Flower?!But it doesn't make sense even more, how can the Hell Aster Flower help us?!"

"Don't think about it so much. Guevara said slowly: "Be on full alert, if the news is fake, we will not lose anything, if it is true, we are negligent...... That's an unforgivable mistake!"

It wasn't until Guevara's figure had disappeared into the living room that Langning came to his senses, hurriedly ran out of the door, turned over on his war horse, and galloped away in the direction of the Holy See.

When Guevara reappeared, he had already changed into a military uniform and stood majestically in front of the city lord's mansion, the ruthless years had left a knife-like wrinkle on the old man's face, but he had never been able to obliterate the sky-high pride contained in it.

"I hope to hold out until you come back...... Guevara muttered to himself as he looked to the southeast, then tightened the knight's gun in his hand and strode out.

It was as if a small pebble had been thrown into the lake, causing ripples and breaking the peace of the Holy Crown City, which at the moment was like a clockwork machine, and when the order to start was given, it immediately began to operate in an orderly manner.

The mage towers in the city lit up one after another, and a faint light curtain enveloped the entire Holy Crown City, and soldiers continued to pour out of the barracks everywhere, lined up in a neat phalanx, and one by one the magic crystal cannons were moved to the city wall, and the muzzle of the black hole was like a fierce beast that only chose people to devour, quietly lurking there.

Guevara's order was simple, hold on until Han Jin returned.

Although Guevara didn't say how long he would have to defend or when Han Jin would be able to return, no one seemed to doubt this, Han Jin had become a veritable patron saint in the hearts of all the soldiers and civilians in the Holy Crown City, and it seemed that as long as Han Jin was there, they were fearless.

"Didn't Raphael set up a magic circle?" Jaydis suddenly remembered that Han Jin had been very busy in the days before he went to the Free Federation.

"That magic circle can only be opened by him. Guevara said helplessly.

"However, if we keep the magic shield on, I'm afraid we won't last long. Jaydis said worriedly.

"It must be on at all times, or with the speed of the Abyss Archdemon, we will be able to teleport to the city before we can react. "Guevara didn't know this, but no matter what, he couldn't let the Abyss Archdemon rush to the city, without Han Jin's presence, no one here could effectively stop the actions of the Abyss Archdemon, although Jaydes and Guevara were not weak, but with the two of them simply not being able to take care of such a large city, instead of watching the demons destroy the mage tower, it was better to keep it on, even if it was the moment when the magic crystal was exhausted.

The longer you delay, the better your chances of victory.

Everyone's eyes invariably turned to the southeast, and it seemed that everyone's hope was pinned there.

Time flies, and on this day, in a dense forest more than fifty miles away from the Holy Crown City, more than a dozen abyss archdemons stood there quietly, as if waiting for something. The leader is the younger brother of the great demon Donald, Prince Johnson, there is still a long wound on his chest, from the left shoulder to the right rib, there are blood clots coagulated into purple and black everywhere near the wound, the gray muscles are rolling, and some stars flicker in it from time to time, but the owner of this body does not seem to take such a serious injury to heart, and the body is still straight, just standing there casually, giving people a feeling that cannot be shaken.

There was a sudden fluctuation in the air, and the form of an abyssal archdemon emerged.

"Your Royal Highness. The Abyss Great Demon who had just appeared leaned down respectfully, with a bit of trepidation in his tone.

Johnson's gloomy eyes swept over the face of the big demon in front of him, and he sighed lightly, "Still can't do it?"

"Your Highness, it's so strange there, no matter which direction I approach from, I have a feeling of panic, but I can't sense any elemental fluctuations there. The Abyss Archdemon said, his face showed a little shame, as an Abyss Archdemon, he was actually frightened by what he couldn't see, and he couldn't say anything about it.

"Can't sense elemental fluctuations at all?" Johnson pondered for a moment and asked, "How big is the range?"

"It's about fifty meters away from the magic shield of the Holy Crown City, and it feels like someone has put something on it. ”

"Regardless of whether there are elemental fluctuations or not, since that magic shield is real, then it definitely needs the support of magic crystals, and it doesn't matter if you feel that way, maybe this is something that Raphael made. Johnson said slowly, "It looks like it's going to be another tough battle." ”

"Your Highness, what do you mean ......"

"Let the Cerberus go, I'll see how long they can last. A scowling look flashed across Johnson's face.

Several abyssal archdemons looked at each other, knowing that this was not a wise decision, but there was really no other way at the moment, this time they ran thousands of miles, in order to achieve the purpose of surprise, so they did not bring the evil eye and Medusa's slow-moving troops. Johnson's original plan was to use the demon's teleportation ability to rush directly into the city to destroy the Mage Tower while the Holy Crown City was defenseless, so that the Holy Crown City without a magic shield would not have any resistance in front of the Minotaur and Cerberus.

Unexpectedly, as if the Holy Crown City had known that they were coming, the magic shield in the city was turned on around the clock, leaving Johnson's plan in vain.

That's the disadvantage of not having a long-range strike force, and if the Evil Eye and the Medusa Legion were here, no magic shield would be able to withstand their volleys, but now, it can only be filled with the life of Cerberus.

I hope I'm right, Johnson thought silently to himself, under normal circumstances, the mage towers in the city only raise the magic shield when they are in danger, and no city can keep the magic shield open all the time, which will consume an astronomical amount of magic crystals. As for the situation in Crown City, Johnson thought that it was just an accident, perhaps he accidentally exposed his whereabouts somewhere.

Ordering Cerberus to attack, it's not that Johnson doesn't care about Cerberus casualties at all, but because Johnson really needs this victory too much, and judging from all indications, the Holy Crown City has already turned on the magic shield when they are walking through the forest, even if they are not attacked, no city can do this for a long time, under the continuous attacks of Cerberus, I believe that their magic crystals will be consumed soon.

To put it simply, it's just one word, consumption!

The overwhelming Cerberus surged towards the Holy Crown City, as if draped the earth with a black carpet, and behind the Cerberus, there were countless minotaurs interspersed and roamed, and as soon as the Cerberus tore open, they would rush up and crush all humans who dared to stand in their way with their sharp tomahawks.

However, when the Cerberus rushed to within fifty meters of the magic shield of the Holy Crown City, it suddenly stopped as if frightened, and was immediately knocked to the ground by his companions who rushed up from behind, and then stepped on it again, and immediately became a mess under the city.

The defenders on the city wall did not let go of this rare opportunity, the only dozen or so magic crystal cannons remaining on the city wall roared at the same time, and the pouring fire exploded the entangled hellhounds under the city into flying flesh and blood, and the magicians of the magic legion of the Holy Crown City immediately rushed to the city wall, and the magic halos of different colors bloomed one after another.

Some of the Cerberus who had survived the magic and artillery fire, as if they had not yet recovered from their fright, fled desperately backwards, colliding with a steady stream of companions from behind, causing even more chaos.

Ripples rippled in the air, and one by one the Abyssal Archdemon roared loudly and revealed their forms, swords flashing into countless small pieces as they tried to escape.

The bloody means shocked the panicked Cerberus, they could no longer care about the inexplicable fear in their hearts, compared to the scythe of the Abyss Archdemon, which was more terrifying, and they rushed to the city wall desperately.

The appearance of the Abyss Archdemon has also caused a great psychological impact on the defenders of the Holy Crown City, this creature with the same name as angels has always been synonymous with nightmares, but fortunately, with the protection of the magic shield, the soldiers on the city wall can still try their best to suppress the fear in their hearts, desperately attacking the swarming hellhounds with artillery fire and arrows.

"I'm curious, are they going to use these guys to deplete our magic crystals?" Seeing that the enemy has no long-range strike power, Jaydis is no longer as worried as he was at the beginning, although the magic shield of Crown City may not be able to withstand these cerberus forever, but the problem is that it is not easy for them to break the magic shield.

In fact, no army on the continent would dare to force an attack on a city with a magic shield simply with a melee class, which means that the number of casualties will reach an astronomical number.

"What does Johnson want to do?" Guevara was equally puzzled.
