Chapter 189: Aegean Seaside

"That's it......" Akali is actually very willing in her heart, the dragon knight in front of her is not only extraordinary, but the most important thing is that he knows how to care about his companions, and he is very righteous, as for the things that were calculated this time, in fact, it was just that the two sides happened to agree on the purpose, so they hit it off, and it was impossible to talk about who used whom. "Okay, I promise you, from now on you will be the ninth member of the Knights of the Dawn, and we will return to the European continent!"

At the behest of Princess Akali, two dragons and a brightly colored Vermilion Bird pierced the British sky and flew to the east.

Ten kilometers outside the city of Athens, on a fine sandy beach by the Aegean Sea.

"Elena, we've been attacking for three days, but there's still no progress, shouldn't we consider a change of tactics, we don't have many people in the first place, and if we continue to sacrifice so meaninglessly......" Wallace was worried, even in front of him facing this familiar sea, it was still difficult to calm the restlessness in his heart.

"I know it, but I haven't thought of any good way to do it......" Elena shook her head bitterly as she looked at the smoke of Athens from afar. "And yesterday, there seemed to be some magic items moved into the city, you see, now you can faintly see the light of the magic array, I always feel that something bad is about to happen......"

"Elena, I know what you think, my father's last wish is to be buried next to my mother, that's why you are so desperate to take the city of Athens and make him blind, but ......"

"It's nothing, at the moment of the great enemy, how can we hesitate, this is a taboo for soldiers. Elena interrupted Wallace, her eyes hardening. "Inform the soldiers, rest for the time being, and wait until tonight, all of you, including you and me, will carry out the last attack, either the enemy will die or I will die!"

“...... Be. Wallace was silent for a few seconds, and was about to leave, when suddenly, a scout Pegasus came running and shouted, "General, orders from Her Majesty the Princess!"

"Give it to me!" Elena took the envelope, opened it, and read it with Wallace:

After we have left Britain, I have heard of the battle that awaits you under the city of Athens, so please be calm, reduce your unnecessary losses, and wait for our reinforcements to arrive, and hope that all is safe.

“...... Well, the order is canceled. Elena sighed, and her eyes became more and more helpless as she looked at the city of Athens. "Why, O Athens, why are we so close and I will never be able to return to you......"

"Don't worry, everything will pass. Wallace comforted softly. "Hold on a little longer, and we'll definitely be back home!"

"Our home...... Well, then I'll listen to you and wait a little longer. Elena repeated the word, eventually smiling softly and nodding. "Let the soldiers withdraw, wait for the order in the camp for the time being, and besides, you have to find out what kind of name that magic array is, the energy can be seen from so far away, this kind of power is only afraid of ......"

"I understand, give me a day and I'll figure it out. Wallace's expression turned serious.

At the same time, Brandenburg.

"Isn't it, sister?" exclaimed Katarina. "Why are you sick? Do you want me to treat you?"

"It's okay, Eve has already helped me with treatment, and I have also been recuperating in Britain for half a month, so I have been fine for a long time, don't believe you. Akali moved her arms and legs, signaling that she had fully recovered.

"But it's really amazing, there are so many treasures of that green dragon, our warehouses can't fit in, so I temporarily expanded two more warehouses before putting them down. Caterina said.

"Speaking of which, Fluttershy, have you made any name for yourself in your bloodstone research?" Yunhai suddenly remembered that Fluttershy had been doing all kinds of research on her bloodstone necklace all this time, and couldn't help but ask.

"Sure enough, it's the same as I thought, or how ordinary bloodstone contains such a strong amount of power. Fluttershy nods, and takes off her necklace, glittering in the sunlight. "This bloodstone is not only very large, larger than an egg, but according to Chris, this gem of the female dragon knight came from the body of a powerful fire dragon, and it has absorbed the strength essence of the dragon for hundreds of years, and has become a powerful dragon soul stone, which seems to have the strength to strengthen the flesh and the ability to make wounds heal quickly!"

"Then I don't want you to use it one day. Yunhai said.

"That's nature, I won't get hurt so easily, don't worry. Fluttershy smiles sweetly.

"But then again, how is Elena and Reinhardt?" asked Akali.

"They have stopped the attack according to the order of their sister, and are now waiting for the order ten kilometers outside the city of Athens, and, according to the news from Wallace, in the city of Athens, there is a huge magic circle, and its light can be seen from ten kilometers away, Wallace's scouts said that the core of the circle is a crystal with powerful magical energy, and its energy is very terrifying, so we must pay attention to this. ”

As soon as this remark came out, all four were shocked.

"Magic Crystal in Athens City?" Yun Hai was a little puzzled. "What are they going to do? to deal with us?"

"Quite possibly. Akali thought for a moment and felt that this was the only way to explain. "Elena marched all the way to regain a large part of Eastern Europe, and finally made Trist unable to sit still, so he had the necromancer garrison in the city of Athens with magic crystals, no wonder Elena and their troops suffered so many casualties......"

"Now that we've found the magic crystal, shall we snatch it back?" Fluttershy waved her small fist.

"We can't act so hastily, after all, we all know the power of this magic crystal, even Lord Merlin can't match its strength, if we fight it head-on, I'm afraid that we will be torn to pieces by the powerful energy in an instant." Yunhai shook his head. "The magic circle should all have a source of energy, as long as we cut off this, the pure crystal will no longer be terrifying. ”

"Then let's go as soon as possible. Akalith thought about it, but couldn't think of a better way. "Katarina, you still guard here, keep an eye on the movements in Rotterdam, let Merlin stay and assist you, and then Chris and Eve follow the three of us to support Elena and try to set foot in the city of Athens in one fell swoop!"

"Yes!" everyone replied in unison.

The next day, in the barracks outside the city of Athens.

"Damn, this magic array is a ticking time bomb, I say how their magic is like no money, it's this crystal that is playing tricks...... "Elena said rubbing her temples.

"Don't always frown and have a sad face, if you always frown and are prone to wrinkles, you won't be beautiful. Wallace persuaded from the sidelines.

"Just your flamboyance!" Elena glanced at Wallace. "Let's get down to business, what should we do, don't always slap me on the back, I won't marry you anytime soon. ”

"Okay...... Wallace looked a little disappointed. "Our men and horses have been lost by a third, and the morale of the soldiers has generally begun to decline, with our strength alone, we can't fight anymore, and with that magic array, the city of Athens is simply indestructible, I think it's better to wait for Her Royal Highness the princess to come down before making a decision." ”

"That's all there is to it......"

At this moment, a guard suddenly ran outside the door and said, "Two adults, two giant dragons and an immortal bird suddenly flew over our military camp, please give an order!"

"Dragon, immortal?" Elena froze. "The immortal bird should be from the sea of clouds, so what's the matter with the other two dragons, did they invite the dragon knight to help?"

"Either way, it's a good thing that the dragon is here, and we finally have a way to break through that damn magic array. Wallace jumped. "Go, Elena, go meet them!"

The two hurried out to meet them, and outside the barracks, a silver dragon and a fire dragon descended, and on top of them were Akali, Eve, and Chris, and on Suzaku's back, there were Yunhai and Fluttershy, and the five of them jumped down one after another, and Akali asked, "Has there been any change in your situation here?"

"No, Your Highness Princess. Elena replied very simply. "We have not attacked again since we received your order, and the enemy in Athens does not seem to be able to fight any longer, nor has any intention of leaving the city, and we have been in a state of truce for the past twenty-four hours. ”

"Good. Akali nodded calmly. "This is Martin Chris, the Dragon Knight, who has now joined our Knights of the Dawn, this is my new mount, and I have named it Snow Shine. ”

"Why do you always feel that your name as a silver dragon is suspected of pirating my Xiaoguang......" Yunhai complained silently.

"That's not the point, don't be so careful!" Akali waved her hand. "Anyway, let's go ahead and discuss the next plan. ”

Entering the barracks, the seven of them divided their priorities and began to discuss how to take the city of Athens.

"I think it's best for us to take advantage of the night, so that we can achieve the purpose of sneak attack, with the help of the power of the dragon and the undead bird, it should not be difficult to destroy the magic array. Wallace suggested first.

"No, I don't think it's effective. Chris said. "The size of the dragon and the immortal bird are very large, just now we were in the process of landing, we should have also attracted the attention of the enemy, if the commander defending the city is not a fool, this time it is estimated that he is already actively preparing for battle, so I suggest that we be quick and attack immediately, and take the enemy by surprise. ”

As soon as this remark came out, it won a round of applause from everyone.

"But first of all, we still have to consider the physical strength of the soldiers, after all, the reinforcements we led have just finished a long journey, and we are afraid that we will not be able to enter the battle immediately. Eve said worriedly.

Everyone discussed fiercely, comparing various plans, and the final plan gradually surfaced.

"Okay, that's it. Akali slapped her face, stood up and said: "It is now half past ten in the morning, I order, the soldiers immediately prepare three days' dry rations, at twelve o'clock, we will do our best, launch a siege, and take the city of Athens in one fell swoop!"
