The battle in the Florent Gorge achieved remarkable results, allowing the Imperial Army who fought day and night on the front line to gain a certain degree of respite. But as the known intelligence said, the Demon King's army only wanted to occupy the "high ground" and was not afraid of sacrifice. Under the command of the commander, the monsters were quickly reorganized and strode towards the defense line of the third canyon. .
"As you can see, it is undeniable that the flooding strategy in Batman Lado Canyon has achieved certain results, but with the subsequent addition of trolls and pretenders, the situation immediately turned into a one-sided situation, and in addition to this In addition, the Demon King's army has also added new mutant raptors and many other air strike forces. Now the morale of the soldiers is low. We believe that the commander of the Nervana army should personally give a speech at this moment to encourage people and boost the morale of our army, and then go to the canyon. Gather your combat power at the end and launch a final desperate fight with the enemy!"
"It's not necessary." The man declined the advice of the ashen-faced chief of staff who had returned from the front with an extremely casual attitude.
"I don't understand."
"According to the instructions I gave earlier, do you need me to repeat it a second time?"
The man's unreasonable look really made the chief of staff a little annoyed. When he turned his eyes, he saw Nervana, who was able to carefully consider the suggestions she made, and she was walking to the left and right with another strange blond female knight. With the help of this guy, the chief of staff could not hold back and transferred his anger of defeat to the "airborne" supreme commander.
"As I see it, the erosion of the Demon King's power has spread here. If you do what you said and withdraw all the troops on the border, how can the people who remain in the Batman Lado area protect themselves?"
"The evacuation warning was issued a week ago, and as of yesterday, there were still people fleeing here under the escort of soldiers. We have made arrangements with utmost kindness, and those who remain can be regarded as brave people who are willing to live and die with the land. The most important thing at the moment is The important defense line is this fortress. Once it collapses, part of the southeastern part of the empire will be destroyed instantly. The only option is to maintain the defense line at all costs. As for a desperate fight, in my opinion, it is far from that point. "Balong used a certain amount of wind magic to look through the ancient books in his hand, but he completely ignored the chief of staff's words while explaining.
"This is a matter of choice. Leaders should have the courage to make decisions and avoid extraneous matters, focusing on one thing and losing another. I understand this."
Seeing that Neruvana was still talking to this guy and the blond girl on the side was unmoved, the chief of staff secretly clenched his fists.
The chief of staff knew that his status was not as good as those in front of him. It happened that the white-haired old man walked into the camp from the outside at this time. The chief of staff did not think twice and vented his current dissatisfaction on the newcomers.
However, as soon as he turned around, he was shocked by the old man's glare. Facing the old man's glare, the chief of staff seemed to witness a huge and boundless dragon passing in front of him. He accidentally dropped a claw and killed him. Crushed into powder. The chief of staff's legs went weak and he sat on his butt on the ground.
"You're back, Senior Villafa, can things be handled properly?" Without raising his head, just sensing the approach of the other party's breath, Barong determined the identity of the visitor.
"Master, digging a well is really easy for me, but if you want to purify the water source below the village, even I can't do it easily."
"So what's the result?" Nervana was more concerned about this point.
"It's already done." Villafa replied affirmatively.
"You are worthy of being a senior Villafa for being able to do even this. You are so awesome!" Atori praised without hesitation.
"Just do your best for what you do, and you don't have to do that, Your Excellency Artoris." Ignoring the guy who fell to the ground and couldn't help himself, Villafa turned around and looked at Baron, then asked .
"So what's next?"
"Next..." Barong said, closing the book and standing up on the chair.
He gave a signal with his eyes, and then said to the three people present: "It's almost time, let's go, let's meet two old acquaintances of Galius."
——Fort Ophinia, the last line of defense in the southeast of the Kotgama Empire, is also the destination of everyone’s trip.
Since arriving at the front line a few days ago, the group has been settled here. Historical data records that hundreds of years ago this was the territory of a Grand Duke Offenia. Grand Duke Offenia was once a responsible lord, although it was very rare. Although he is strict, his love for his people is equally well known.
However, people's hearts are unpredictable. Such a respected lord actually committed the crime of collaborating with the enemy. A few years later, the rebellion subsided. Ofenia was punished by the empire, her family was exiled by the king's order, and he was beheaded in public. fate.
Fort Orphenia and the area under its jurisdiction were expropriated by the empire, and a high wall was built around it to resist the invasion of foreign enemies.
Nowadays, this place is also used as a crucial line of defense against the forces of the Demon King's army. Just from the fact that the empire has spent huge sums of money to transform Fort Orphenia into a war fortress, it is enough to see that the top management attaches great importance to this place.
Standing on the city wall hundreds of meters high and looking into the distance, you can see the smoke filling the sky after the Battle of Batman Lado Canyon at the end of the horizon. The Demon King's army is very close, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the army is approaching the city.
She said she was going to meet two old acquaintances of Gellius, but as she followed Baron, Artolis found that she had climbed onto the city wall without knowing it. She could see the landscape of the canyon from a distance, and her eyes were looking towards Outside the lower city wall is a desolate wilderness with no weeds left.
With her distant eyes, she saw inexplicable shadows being cast on some areas. Artoris looked back and saw that the towers of time and space in distant neighboring countries were like knots connecting heaven and earth. Kumogakure was also able to see clearly. Maybe those are the "eyes" of Sabatos Ryder, who is also watching here while committing himself to Kleinia.
Looking back to her eyes, Artoris saw Garius standing in the center of the city wall from a distance, with two people of similar temperament standing beside him.
One of them looked like an old man over eighty years old, and he had a unique oriental appearance. He was carrying a wooden box behind him, with a short, half-bowed body and a figure like a fuso warrior. The attire also highlights the unique reserve of Eastern people.
In addition, the other one is equally extraordinary. As an elven clan, it is difficult for ordinary people to see through his true age. Even the king's temperament has become somewhat restrained with the timeless appearance. But that look in his eyes, which seemed to have seen all the vicissitudes of the world, told people that his journey might be just a little shorter than his destiny in this world.
The two are the only two king-level combat forces in the first legion.
The Niten Toki-ryu swordsman named after "Tsukiuzome Imu" - Kujoji Genro!
And the Dharma King - King Kunling, who is known as the "sage with insight into the world"!
