Chapter 868: Meeting again with the Saint of the Moon Palace
After the deployment of Luolong City was completed, Lei Xiao returned to Kongqing Town with Jiang Li, Huzhang and Ariel.
Lei Xiao found out by listening to Lin's battle report.
There were two orcs besieging Kongqing Town. Their offensive was extremely fierce, and they even attacked the city wall several times.
However, after a bloody battle by the well-equipped Kongqing Town garrison and senior mercenaries.
Coupled with the assistance of the magic cannon, magic scrolls and magic potions left by Lei Xiao, the opponent did not let the opponent take a step beyond the thunder pool.
As for the small group of elite opponents who sneaked into the city, they have also been eliminated by the battle maid squadron stationed in the city, the princess maids such as Xinghui, and the main subordinates such as Rei and Chaoyan who came one after another.
"Then, let us first send these orcs who are taking advantage of the situation completely off the battlefield."
Lei Xiao, who was in the main hall of Kongqing City's main palace, waved his hand and galloped towards the city wall with his subordinates.
What happens next is very simple.
The appearance of Lei Xiao and his team boosted the morale of the soldiers in Kongqing Town.
Coupled with the strong beheading of the opponent's commander by the two fifth-level powerhouses Jiang Li and Hu Zhang, the two orc legions, which had already suffered a lot of losses, were quickly defeated.
In the process, Lei Xiao returned something to the orcs, which was the body of the orc leader that had been broken into two parts.
Seeing that the general had been defeated and the state of death was extremely terrifying, the opponent abandoned his armor along the way and ran faster.
This defeated scene quickly affected the other three orc legions that were besieging the territory in the forest.
Under the protection of the territory's absolute defense barrier, these orc soldiers who besieged the territory had made no achievements and their morale was extremely low.
After learning that their leader had been killed, these three legions also completely lost their will to fight and could only escape desperately.
Lei Xiao did not order a full-scale pursuit of these orc soldiers who fled all the way to the hidden pass.
He just ordered Huzhang and the main strong men, as well as the two Warcraft Undead Brigades led by Lina, to continuously attack the rear of the defeated team.
Under the reflection of the cold moon, the dense forest road is narrow, not only the field of vision is extremely limited, but also revealing a forest atmosphere everywhere.
Such a dark scene everywhere, coupled with the roars of knotweed and undead beasts, made the orc soldiers who were surrounded by grass and trees chase each other, pushing each other and scrambling to escape.
As a result, countless orc soldiers fell to the ground, and eventually died under the trampling of the orc boots behind them.
Looking at the embarrassing figures of the orcs trampling on each other, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.
Just like what he thought before Luolong City, for these half-orc soldiers who had completely lost their will to fight, he would naturally not push them to a dead end.
The first is the point mentioned just now: Don’t chase the poor criminals.
After all, our main enemy this time is not these sudden orcs, but the Black Duke and the No. 3 man in black robe.
Since these half-orc soldiers who have abandoned their armor are no longer a threat, it is obviously not a wise choice to waste time dealing with these defeated soldiers.
Once the opponent engages in a desperate fight and fights back, it will cause a huge loss of our combat power.
Second, if the Black Duke and the man in black robe No. 3 take advantage of the situation during the pursuit, it will be even more detrimental than gain.
Our dispersion of combat power is tantamount to playing into the opponent's hands, and we will never make such a move that puts the cart before the horse.
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao withdrew his gaze and let out a long sigh of relief.
At this point, the orc army, consisting of a total of 15 legions and attacking in two directions, has completely withdrawn from this life-and-death battlefield!
"Just like what I thought before, when I free my hands, the orcs will pay a price they can't afford for this stupid move."
He ordered Huzhang and others to pursue them all the way to the pass and re-seal the line of sky. After letting out a sigh of relief, Lei Xiao temporarily returned to his territory and began to compile battle reports from various places.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that completely defeating the orcs was only a small victory.
As long as the 300,000-strong army of the eldest prince and the second prince who are approaching the city is still there, he and his territory will still be under the opponent's sharp sword, and there is always a risk of destruction.
Then, through reports from subordinates from various places, Lei Xiao learned.
Most of our more than 20 chaotic former traditional aristocratic and new aristocratic cities have been calmed down.
Only a few are still stubbornly resisting, and it is only a matter of time before stability is achieved.
According to subordinates, these hostile elite forces that sneaked into our cities immediately frantically encouraged the rebellion of the new citizen class, as well as some traditional nobles and new nobles, in an attempt to strengthen their ranks.
But the final result is that all the new citizens are unmoved, and the few side nobles who ventured to participate have also been removed, completely eliminating the unrest in the city.
"It seems that my previous series of forgiveness and money offensives are still very effective."
"I'm afraid the other party never expected that in just a few days, I would be able to completely quell the resentment of the new citizens."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and continued to think.
"As for the remaining unquelled cities, just leave them to Randall and the three mercenary great magicians."
"There are four fourth-level strong men taking action with elite mercenaries, and the opponent can no longer afford to spend any money."
After listening to the briefings from various places, a touch of joy finally appeared on Lei Xiao's face.
From this moment on, I can solemnly declare.
The opponent's orc army that found a new way and the elite forces that sneaked into various places have all failed!
"But judging from the calm demeanor of the Black Duke when he left, these are not the only two ways that the other party can find another path, and the next one will only be stronger than what has already appeared."
"Otherwise, neither the Black Duke nor the man in black robe No. 3 will give up the Orc piece easily."
Thinking of this in his mind, the joy on Lei Xiao's face fleetingly disappeared, and he frowned again and fell into deep thought.
So far, I still have no clue as to what the other party will do next.
Moreover, the two legions that disappeared from the beginning have also not been found. These are extremely unstable factors.
In other words, despite eliminating the two immediate threats, his situation is still extremely passive.
"It's been such a long night. I hope that with everyone's efforts, the dawn will come as promised."
Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, his expression becoming more solemn.
The only thing I can do now is to remain unchanged and cope with all changes.
"No matter what, even if there are huge waves ahead, I have no way to retreat."
After sorting everything out in his mind, Lei Xiao started talking again and asked about the situation in Wangxing City.
Lei Xiao learned through the fierce shouts of death that kept ringing out during his words and Orr's reply.
Due to the effect of the exorcism circle, the lethality of spell attacks and magic cannons has become limited.
Long swords and bows and arrows have become the absolute protagonists of the battlefield.
As the offensive of the opponent's 20 legions became more and more fierce, our four main legions and three surrender legions, whose combat strength was comparable to that of the opponent, were almost all on the city wall.
On the anxious siege battlefield, our soldiers fired arrows with all their strength while engaging in fierce hand-to-hand battles on the city walls with the opposing soldiers who occasionally rushed up.
Thanks to the heroic fighting of our soldiers, the enemies who rushed up to the city wall were quickly driven back. This cycle continued, making the entire battlefield extremely intense.
"Lord, judging from the current situation, although we and the opponent are evenly matched, the losses are also extremely shocking."
Several different screams came from Orr's side, which undoubtedly showed that he was still fighting on the front line.
"However, please rest assured, Lord, although the number of our main soldiers is far less than that of the other party, with the advantage of the terrain, coupled with the powerful equipment and magic potions given by the Lord, we will never let the other party take advantage in the slightest. ! ”
After a pause, Al added solemnly: "At least at this stage, Wangxing City has not shown any signs of weakness and is still impregnable!"
"Al, then I'll leave it all to you. I'll bring someone over in a moment."
Lei Xiao stopped talking and his brows were twisted into a knot.
While Orr's words were reassuring, one thing was certain.
When the opponent's frontal attack has been ineffective, I am afraid that he will soon use a new trump card and prepare to find another way again.
This undoubtedly means that a new life and death test is coming.
"I hope the Black Duke and the man in black robe No. 3 will not use too exaggerated trump cards."
Lei Xiao thought as he began to replenish the magic scrolls and potions.
Before the battle began, Lei Xiao had already distributed most of the magic scrolls and potions, leaving only a few in reserve.
The consumption in Luolong City just now was huge, and now it happened to be all used up.
As for the lost Earth Guardians, Lei Xiao summoned one more at the Guardian Defense Agency, and the rest could only be replenished slowly.
Fortunately, although most of the 20 divine arm shooters suffered a lot of damage, they were all repaired automatically, so there is no need to worry.
"It's just that in the charge under Luolong City, 10 of the 30 ice knights were completely lost. Just ask Gals to make them again."
Lei Xiao had just finished all this, and the tiger sticks and the main subordinates who were chasing the orcs had all returned to their territory.
"For your information, Lord Lord, all the remaining orcs have fled back to the outer realm through the pass, and my subordinates have also sealed the pass again!"
The dusty tiger stick took a step forward, stroked his chest and saluted Lei Xiao: "These damn guys even expanded the originally narrow pass several times!"
"Don't worry, as long as we can welcome the dawn of victory, they will usher in a complete doom."
Lei Xiao nodded to his subordinates, waved his hand and said: "Time is running out, let's set off now."
After finishing speaking, the group of people disappeared into the territory instantly under Jiang Li's teleportation.
In the blink of an eye, Lei Xiao's vision became clear again.
I found that I and the main subordinates had arrived in the meeting hall of the city lord's mansion.
This is not Wangxing City, but Fanyin City as a temporary capital.
Before that, Lei Xiao had already learned about it through Nan Xing's report.
As the Saint of the Moon Temple, Teresa fulfilled her promise to be a helping hand and appeared in time to save Nanxing Nanyue and others, and started a big battle with the black-robed man No. 10 who suddenly appeared.
And now, since he has his hands free, he naturally wants to reciprocate the favor and let the Moon Palace Saint out of trouble.
However, when Lei Xiao led the main subordinates non-stop to the battle location mentioned by Nanxing Nanyue, he only found a panting Theresa leaning against the wall.
Although the other party's face had completely changed, Lei Xiao quickly identified the other party's identity through a bracelet given by Erza.
As long as you are close to Teresa, the bracelet will glow slightly.
"Sorry, Your Excellency, I failed to kill that guy."
Teresa was not surprised that Lei Xiao could recognize her, but smiled helplessly: "That guy must have seen some signal and had already escaped before you arrived."
"That guy is not worth mentioning. He will have to pay the price sooner or later."
Lei Xiao walked forward and asked Theresa: "Your Majesty the Saint, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, Your Excellency, Guest. Although I'm just a little tired, that guy's arm was solidly hit by a shadow arrow."
Teresa smiled and quickly returned to normal: "Since Your Excellency, Guest Minister, is here, it means that the riots in various places have almost subsided, right?"
"As expected of Your Majesty the Saint."
Seeing Theresa was intact, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and briefly explained the situation to Theresa.
"Did you actually successfully repel an army of 150,000 orcs in such a short period of time? That is a force that can intimidate a country."
Teresa's starry eyes flickered, she looked at Lei Xiao with surprise, and she couldn't help but said sincerely: "Your Excellency, Ke Qing, is indeed extraordinary."
Of course, Teresa clearly understood the brutality and strength of the orcs.
While being shocked in her heart, the Saint of the Moon Palace couldn't help but feel a little lucky.
If they only rely on their 250,000 Holy Night Army to attack the Hillfort Fortress, the outcome may not be much better than that of the Red Devils.
"I have to say, he is really a guy who can always make people's jaws drop."
Looking at Lei Xiao's gentle face, Teresa murmured to herself: "It seems that rather than being enemies, it is better to be friends."
Thinking of this, Teresa sighed softly.
Now, the Holy Night Kingdom is also experiencing turmoil, and the influence of the Moon Palace is also declining day by day.
This time, although he barely suppressed the 250,000 Holy Night Army.
But once the main war factions of the Holy Night Kingdom use weapons again, they may not be able to stop them.
At that time, in order to protect the Holy Night Kingdom, I am afraid that I will be forced to stand on the opposite side of this young man from another world.
"Your Majesty the Saint, I really want to thank you so much this time."
Lei Xiao seemed to see what Theresa was thinking, smiled lightly and said: "I promise you, no matter what happens in the future, I will not make it difficult for your friend."
"Friends?"
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, Teresa smiled, raised her eyebrows and said, "Since your Excellency, Ke Qing, has said so, then it doesn't matter if I make you a friend who always makes people admire you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the Holy Lady, for your praise."
Lei Xiao still maintained a faint smile and asked: "Then, Your Majesty the Saint, are you willing to continue to help my friend?" (End of Chapter)
