After a great battle with the Blue Dragon Knights, the Glory Legion led by Alvin finally managed to break out of the ruins of the ancient Bardia Castle.
Although this battle was not large in scale and did not last long, both sides killed corpses everywhere, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
But in general, this group of glorious legions led by Alvin and others, composed of Karsus' elite forces, is still stronger. It is inevitable that they will not successfully break out of the castle.
However, there were more imperial soldiers led by Liat, the adjutant of the Blue Dragon Knights, and they also occupied the advantageous location outside. Coupled with several attacks by the cavalry, Alvin and others could not rely on the two mages. With the support, they forced a breakout, but in the end, they still lost a lot of troops.
Now, the two sides are basically maintaining an undefeated situation with each other, and they are facing each other by the lakeside of the fortress with a distance of two to three hundred meters.
"..."
"Let everyone prepare!"
"We'll leave soon!"
At this time, looking at the cavalry of the Blue Dragon Knights who had formed up in front, before the enemy was ready to charge again, Alvin gritted his teeth and prepared to give the order to retreat.
"But!"
"Alvin!"
"The Holy Sword must still be in their hands. Do we really want to withdraw?"
Just now, a pyrotechnic blasted a group of cavalry from the Blue Dragon Knights into the lake. Now, Hain, who was panting slightly due to excessive consumption of magic power, was startled for a moment, and then said to Alvin with some reluctance.
"yes!"
"If we work harder, maybe they will be defeated by us!"
"Then get the holy sword back!"
At this time, Princess Shirley of Karsus, who jumped down from the white flying eagle on the side and had a lot of blood stains on her body, was also a little unhappy and eager to encourage her. It seemed that she did not intend to go back empty-handed now.
"no!"
"Can't fight anymore..."
"The one in front of us is not the main force of the Blue Dragon Knights at all!"
"Although this is still a border area, a lot of the land here has been occupied by the empire. They already belong to the empire's rear. Once more enemy support arrives, we will be in trouble!"
Looking at the well-prepared and experienced imperial cavalry in front, watching them form a loose but fierce formation and blocking the road, Alvin finally did not dare to stay here and fight with those who were emboldened. Enemies fight.
"Master Jessica, what do you think?"
Therefore, he turned to look at the legendary great magician who was also very tired.
"Alvin is right."
"The situation will not be good if we stay any longer."
"Withdraw!"
If Jessica's strength was at its peak, then a few hundred imperial cavalry would not be enough.
But unfortunately, her reincarnation technique makes her current magic power as immature as her body. When the situation is stronger than others, even she has to choose to bow to reality.
"Everyone!"
"withdraw!"
Seeing that the great magician Jessica had the same opinion as himself, Alvin gritted his teeth and raised his hands, giving the order to retreat.
"hateful!"
"Everyone withdraw!"
"quick!!"
She looked at Keith on the side. Although she was very unwilling to do so, Princess Shirley of Karsus still had to repeat Alvin's order and commanded the large army to quickly withdraw into the dense forest behind, planning to They used the woods to delay the charge and pursuit of the imperial cavalry, then moved into the mountains and retreated to Karsus via the mountain stream path they came from.
Soon, this group of soldiers went deep into the enemy's rear to search for the Holy Sword to no avail, and fought several battles with the enemy. Currently, there were only five or six hundred soldiers of the Glorious Legion left. Under the intimidation of Alvin at the rear and a group of spearmen, they slowly retreated. The ground retreated into the dense forest.
"!!"
"Adjutant Liat, the enemy has escaped!"
"Hurry up and chase!"
Seeing that the enemy who had been fighting with them for a long time was about to escape, an imperial cavalry commander of the Blue Dragon Knights certainly refused and wanted their commander Liat to give the order to pursue them.
"No……"
"They have two mages and a lot of spearmen. Coupled with the restrictions of the terrain, if we chase them, the outcome will be hard to say."
Unfortunately, Liat shook his head and rejected the cavalry commander's request with an ugly expression.
The cavalry is not suitable for fighting in the jungle. Just now, they clearly had an absolute advantage and blocked the enemy in the castle. However, they were still rushed out by the opponent. Now, under such circumstances, they rashly enter the jungle to pursue those enemies. Most of them are lightly armed elite enemies, so they might all have to fall in.
"But the Holy Sword..."
"What shall we explain when Captain Leon comes back?"
Looking at the forest, the imperial commander knew that continuing to pursue and fight would be detrimental to his own side, but when he thought that the holy sword he had been looking for for so long had been snatched away by the group of Karsus, he felt faintly. The ground was a little unwilling.
"..."
"I will explain it to Captain Leon!"
"go!"
"Treat the wounded first, and then send people to search the castle!"
"besides!"
"Clean the battlefield and arrest all the Karsusians who are not dead!"
Finally, he stared at the place where the group of enemies disappeared in front of him for a while, and looked at the frightened birds flying above the forest. After confirming that the enemies were getting further and further away, Liat, who was also unwilling to do so, put away his hands in annoyance. rifle, and then ordered to the commander.
Now, he is going to prepare for the upcoming Captain Leon.
Moreover, he also had to seriously think about how he could explain why he led the cavalry here first and blocked the enemy, but in the end he failed to control the situation, leading to a defeat in the battle and a surrender. Responsible for the situation where the enemy escaped calmly?
Although Liat also knew the temperament of Captain Ilion, the other party would definitely not hold him accountable in the end, and would even give him some lenient words of comfort?
However, Liat still felt a little guilty, feeling that he had failed the leader's expectations of him.
In this way, Alvin and others, who were looking for the Holy Sword, and the Blue Dragon Knights, who were also looking for the Holy Sword, had a battle in front of the ruined castle, the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Bardia. With casualties and mutual fears, the battle ended with the successful breakout of Alvin and others.
After this battle, Alvin and others' intention to find the Holy Sword was officially declared bankrupt. Then, they unanimously concluded that the Holy Sword Langulisa, like the magic sword, had fallen into the hands of the Imperial Army at this time. inside.
And no coincidence!
Liat, the adjutant of the Empire's Blue Dragon Knights, was also upset because the holy sword was snatched away by Erwin of Karsus and others, and planned to report the matter to the leader of their Blue Dragon Knights, Mr. Leon.
…
Just like that, when the Empire and the people of Karsus were already fighting over the non-existent Holy Sword, and each other thought that the other party had stolen the Holy Sword, a certain troubled little girl was already riding on the end of the sword that she was being taken away from. The captured dragon, along with Uncle Matthew holding the holy sword and Miss Almeida holding the dark wand, returned to the rock peak valley and the place where the dragon was originally captured.
"here it is……"
"??"
"Is it the entrance to the Yanfenggu Mine?"
"Why did you turn back again?"
Jumped off the dragon's back and looked around. Although they had only been here once, Almeda and Matthew recognized the place that almost burned them to death in the first place.
In fact, they still have lingering fears until now.
After all, if that bad little girl hadn't put a dark red lava shield on each of them at the critical moment, the giant dragon behind them would have spit out that terrifying blast deep in the mine. With his breath, he had successfully burned the four of them into several cokes in an instant.
"Are you going in?"
"But if you want to go in, you should go in from the cliff on the other side of the mountain, right?"
"The cave here is very small, and the dragon will definitely not be able to enter."
Ameda, who didn't know what Annie wanted to do, quickly explained and looked at the huge red dragon behind her, which was lying on the ground and taking the time to rest and recover its strength.
The hole in front of me is so small, but the dragon is so big, I'm afraid I can't even put my head in, let alone that huge and terrifying body.
"ah!"
"Annie, you don't want to dig up those magic crystals and sell them for money, do you?"
Now that he has returned to this place, Grenier has of course taken up the idea of those extremely valuable crystals in the mine.
Moreover, he believed that there would be no danger if they dug as they pleased now!
Because, the biggest source of danger inside, the giant red dragon entrenched deep in the mine, has now become one of them.
To be precise, it has now become the exclusive mount of his dragon knight, Master Grenier!
Although the little girl was not really handed over to him, and although he also did not learn how to communicate with the dragon, there was no doubt that the big one was definitely his.
"If that happens, remember to count me in!"
Now Grenier is no longer alone. He also has a huge red dragon to feed, and his savings over the years are probably not enough for him to eat for a day, so he is eager to get one as soon as possible. A large sum of money, and it must be a windfall level.
As it happened, the mine in front of me was the best choice.
He was already thinking that when the time comes, riding a giant dragon to smuggle ore would be both safe and efficient. No anti-smuggling team from any country would dare to intercept him. Moreover, the cargo capacity is large. There is simply nothing better than that. A more appropriate idea.
"They didn't say they were going to dig for crystals!"
(￢д￢.)
First she looked down at Uncle Grenier, and then she began to look at the mine in front of her and the surrounding mountains.
Then, she even gestured with her hands, not knowing what she was calculating.
"ah?"
“Not mining?”
"Then what are you doing back here?"
"!!"
"You don't want to release the dragon, do you?"
"That's absolutely not okay!"
"I'm telling you, you promised me yesterday and said you would give it to me. Don't go back on it!!"
Grenier didn't know that he thought of something bad, and then hurried forward and reiterated something with a vigilant and uneasy expression.
"They didn't say they were going to release it!"
(ಠ╭╮ಠ)
"Step aside!"
(๑վ‸վ๑)
With that said, Annie impatiently stepped forward and kicked the other person's ankle. When the other person jumped in pain, she resolutely walked into the dark mine.
"Annie?"
"you……"
Seeing that Annie had gone in first, Almeida, Matthew and Sonia wanted to follow.
"Don't come in yet!"
(„ಡωಡ„)
"You can do it alone!"
o(*¯︶¯*)o
With that said, Annie didn't wait for those guys to ask any more questions, then she carried her little bear Tibbs and disappeared into the dark mine where they had been once before.
"hiss……"
"She's so strong!"
"Hello!"
"Matthew, Almeda, what do you think she wants to do?"
First, he grinned and covered his swollen and painful ankle. After a while, Grenier complained to his companions Matthew and Almeida with some dissatisfaction.
"..."
"..."
However, the two looked at each other but did not answer.
After a while, before Grenier could ask again, Almeida said with some uncertainty:
"I think we should be doing things about the palace and gardens, right?"
"When she just came back, didn't she always mutter something?"
Almeda first touched her lips with her finger, then pursed her lips, chuckled and guessed uncertainly.
"Return to the palace?"
"cut!"
"She also said she would help Sonia realize that wish, but is that possible?"
Grenier mocked disdainfully, not taking that matter seriously at all.
"..."
At this time, after hearing Grenier's words, without waiting for Matthew and Almeda to react, Sonia on the side suddenly lowered her head in frustration.
As for the expression on her face, it is currently unknown.
"Why?!"
"etc!"
"Sonia, don't be sad first, I wasn't talking about you just now!"
After receiving Almeda's signal, Grenier also realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing just now, and then he didn't bother to check his feet and limped directly to Sonia's side, and stammered an explanation got up.
"I mean……"
"Anyway!"
"Even if that little guy Annie doesn't help you, I, the dragon knight, will definitely help you!"
"I promise!"
Although he had never really accepted the dragon at all, and he didn't know how to control it at all. As for the dragon knight, he had not even written a word about it, but Grenier still patted his chest and assured loudly.
Sudden!
Rumble, rumble...
Before Grenier could say more, not long after a certain troubled little girl entered the mine, to her surprise, the ground began to shake violently, and it also made a terrifying sound, like thunder. A vibrating sound.
'! ! '
'Mooo? ! '
After discovering the abnormality, the giant red dragon that was resting on the ground also stood up in a panic and confusion, spread its wings, raised its head and looked around, as if to see what happened.
"?!"
"Is it an earthquake?"
"earthquake?"
"No way, at this time..."
"not good!"
"Annie just entered the mine, will she be in danger?"
After discovering that it seemed to be an earthquake, Matthew and Grenier both exclaimed.
Then, when they reacted, they planned to rush into the mine so that a little girl who had just entered it could get out quickly, lest she be buried inside when the mine caved in.
"wrong!"
"This is not an earthquake!"
"It's the fluctuation of magic power, and it's so strong!!"
At this time, Sonia, who was a half-demon and extremely sensitive to magic, quickly raised her head, widened her eyes and exclaimed.
Then, like the giant dragon, she began to look around, trying to see which mage was using the magic that made the earth shake at this time.
"That's right!"
"It's magic!"
"Its origin..."
"ah!"
"It seems like it's in a mine?!"
At this time, Almeida also felt it, and also noticed the approximate location where the magic wave came from. After all, she was still half a mage.
"!!"
"not good!"
"It's not an earthquake!!"
"Goddess..."
"We are flying!!!"
"no!"
"It's the earth, it's these mountains that are flying!!!!"
Then, the attentive Almeda seemed to discover more, and then she once again exclaimed in panic.
It turns out that she saw it at this time. The clouds in the sky seemed to be getting closer and closer, while the mountains and forests in the distance gradually disappeared under the 'horizon', coupled with the unusual feeling of rising weight. , she still doesn’t know what happened?
