Duke Miller's words were so powerful that all the nobles present looked ashamed.
However, since they came to represent the principality and participated in this expedition, they should have been prepared to sacrifice.
But after hearing a few words from Prince Eric, he immediately started to retreat, which was very embarrassing.
However, a group of noble representatives had such thoughts, but Prince Eric did not.
"Duke Miller, I admit that what you said is partly true, but it also depends on the circumstances."
"Under normal circumstances, we would naturally have to kill the enemy heroically. As the great prince of the Bach Empire, I, Eric, certainly have no reason to be afraid."
"But now with the situation in Duke City, the number of dark creatures is beyond our ability to deal with. There is no difference between staying here and dying!"
"It would be stupid to stay here and continue to die like this!"
Prince Eric's words were also quite powerful, and he did not feel that escaping was cowardly at all.
However, Duke Miller saw that the dark creature outside the city was about to arrive at the city wall. He didn't want to talk nonsense to this guy anymore, and his expression immediately became serious.
"Prince Eric, since you say so, then I have no other choice!"
"Just everyone, if you agree with my words, Miller, then let's start fighting!"
"We have been fighting dark creatures for hundreds of years, and we all know that retreating in front of dark creatures is useless. Only half of the Holy Continent is left now. If we retreat again and again, where can we retreat to?"
"So, if you are willing to fight with me, Miller, please follow me. I, Miller, dare not say anything else, but I can guarantee that I, Miller, will be in the Duke's City today."
"If the Duke's City is captured, then I, Miller, will also sleep here together with the dark creatures!"
After saying that, Duke Miller directly pulled out the gun from his waist and headed towards the wall in front.
All the nobles looked at each other after hearing this, but President Theodore sighed slightly at this time, and then drew out his sword and followed Duke Miller.
Seeing that President Theodore was doing the same thing, many nobles silently drew their swords and followed him.
Only a few nobles were left looking at each other, but in the end they looked at Prince Eric and followed him.
As for Prince Eric, his complexion turned green and white at this moment.
"Sir Carlisle, it seems that we will continue to stay in this city for the time being!"
"However, please don't go too far, Mr. Carlisle. If things go wrong, we will start a breakout immediately!"
Eric really wants to leave now.
It's just that all the representatives of the nobles are following Miller. If they break out now, they will be weak.
Moreover, the dark creatures outside the city are very powerful, and the risk of breaking out is extremely high now.
Therefore, the best chance is to wait for the dark creatures to be attracted by the human race in the city, and then gather them back to evacuate.
"Okay, Prince Eric!" Carlisle, like Eric, is also the guy who wants to break out safely.
Hearing this, he didn't object. After nodding, he took out his staff and headed towards the front of the city wall.
However, the battle for everyone is naturally very difficult.
Since the dark creatures initiated everything, it is comprehensive.
In addition to the dark creatures on the ground, there are also dense bloodthirsty bats and gargoyles in the sky, plus the skeleton mage.
For a while, the soldiers' exclamations and screams could not be heard.
Although a group of noble representatives, Duke Miller and others immediately jumped into the battle, what they needed to face were those middle-to-high-level dark creatures.
For example, the dark giant python and the eighth-level gray-bone earth dragon.
These two types of dark creatures pose a huge threat to the city wall.
Needless to say, the dark python can easily attack everyone on the city wall with its terrifying size.
And there are seven or eight in number, so it would be really difficult for everyone to deal with them.
Fortunately, it was not a field battle at this moment. The struggle of more than ten or twenty earth knights could temporarily block the dark python under the city wall, preventing it from climbing the city wall.
Finally, there is the eighth-level gray-bone earth dragon.
Although this gray-bone earth dragon is just an earth dragon, since it has the word "dragon" in it, it means it is not annoying.
It is said that this living gray-bone earth dragon has a trace of the blood of a real dragon.
In this way, not only does he have a powerful body, but he can also spit out flames that are more powerful than ordinary magical flames.
In this way, everyone calls the flames he spits out dragon breath.
Because in the eyes of everyone, the power is probably not much worse than Dragon Breath.
Ho ho ho!
After the ash-bone earth dragon approaches the city wall, a stream of dragon breath will be sprayed onto the city wall.
Ahhh!
Suddenly, many soldiers on the city wall were affected, and they let out many wailing screams.
Of course, many of the guards' bodies were reduced to ashes before they even had time to scream.
The surface of the wall was even more burned red, and then it took a moment to darken and turn gray-black.
Bang bang bang!
The Ash Bone Earth Dragon was quite proud when he saw the effect of his attack, and the next moment he hit the city wall with his huge body.
Although the city wall is still intact, no one has repaired it for more than a hundred years, so it is shaking slightly after being hit.
"Everyone, we have to deal with this gray-bone dragon quickly, otherwise when he attacks the city, we may not be able to stop these dark creatures today!"
When Duke Miller saw this, he didn't dare to hesitate. He immediately led the sky knights from the six empires to besiege the ashes of the earth dragon.
Suddenly, the battle on the Duke's wall became fierce.
"Dark Believer, how long do you think these human races can last?" Outside the city, the armored knight and the Pope did not take action themselves, but still watched the battle on the city wall from a distance.
Seeing that all the earth knights in the city had joined the battle, the armored knight asked the Pope.
"Your Excellency Black Envoy, they can only last for fifteen minutes at most!"
"Oh, I see their resistance is very fierce, I'm afraid they can last longer!"
"No, Hei is Your Excellency. Now I just want to consume some of their energy to prevent them from having the energy to escape later!"
"After fifteen minutes, I will make them feel desperate. This is why I asked the Black Envoy a few days ago to let me arrange all this and give up this ducal city to these humans."
"I really don't know that leaving the city to them will bring us a lot of losses!"
The Pope is full of confidence and obviously has a backup plan.
"Well, Dark Believer, it will be up to you later!"
Armor actually nodded and said no more in Wenyan.
The human race in the city may have felt that it was a life and death crisis at this moment, so with the determination to break the boat, they broke out with a fighting power that was far beyond normal.
Although the dark creature's attack was fierce, until fifteen minutes passed, the dark creature was still unable to occupy even a small section of the city wall.
The densely packed skeletons were often the first to climb onto the city wall, and then were crushed to pieces by the guards swarming up.
The dark giant python and the eighth-level gray-bone earth dragon were also firmly blocked outside the city wall by a group of strong men from the alliance.
Upon seeing this, the morale of the coalition troops slowly recovered, and everyone fought harder.
"Haha, you are ignorant, so now let me feel what true despair is!"
The Pope smiled slightly and then looked at one of his subordinates.
"Let them get going!"
"It's the Pope!"
Soon, several church archbishops headed towards both sides of the ducal city.
But when these archbishops arrived on both sides, they did not take the initiative to approach the city wall, but went to a dead tree somewhere more than a mile away from the city wall.
These dead trees are not large, only about ten meters in area, and appear a bit abrupt compared to other open areas on the ground.
When the Human Alliance came to Duke City, they didn't even have time to fully control the inside of the city, let alone the inconspicuous dead trees outside the city.
I saw the archbishops on the left and right coming to the dead trees, and then they scraped on the ground for a while, and soon several wooden boards were opened first.
And under the wooden planks, there were actually two huge tunnel entrances.
"Everyone, let's take action now!"
After several archbishops opened the cave entrance, they looked at several corpse-eating beetles.
Although the corpse-eating beetle could not speak human words, it understood what they meant, and the next moment it went directly into the tunnel.
That is, it is too difficult to break through the Magister.
Even though he had desperately used kiwi fruits to enhance his strength, he still had not completed the breakthrough of the magister.
You must know that he took a large amount of spiritual power fruit and affinity fruit, which made his body and talent far superior to other magicians.
But even so, he still encountered a bottleneck.
Although his intuition told him that this bottleneck was not strong, he believed that as long as he piled up strange fruits once or twice, it would be smooth sailing.
But if this were the case for other magicians, unless they were extremely talented, some would be stuck for a lifetime without being able to make a breakthrough.
Of course, although there was no smooth breakthrough in realm, Nalant's space blade has improved again.
The casting time has been reduced from about eight seconds for long range to five seconds.
And the number of space blades has also been changed from the original three to five.
With the five space blades, the attack range of Nalant's magic has been increased again.
In this way, if Nalant continues to deal with the dark giant python now, Nalant is confident that he can kill one with three space blades.
"We should be almost at Duke City ahead. After we meet up with the Alliance team later, I'll make a counterattack and earn a wave of energy points!"
"By then, relying on this wave of energy points, I should be able to break through the bottleneck of my magic realm and become a mage smoothly!"
Narante was a little excited.
"Everyone, speed up!"
Immediately, Nalant waved his hand and continued to move forward with his subordinates.
And three miles away behind them, a large group of dark creatures were still chasing after them.
…
At the same time, on the walls of Duke City, a group of alliance nobles looked out of the city with ugly expressions.
"There is actually a gray-bone earth dragon!"
"Yes, where did these dark creatures come from?"
"Everyone, in addition to the Ash Bone Earth Dragon, look at the sky, there are hundreds of skeleton soldiers riding gargoyles!"
"I'm afraid we're going to be in trouble this time. The dark creatures are going to launch a general attack!"
At this moment, outside the Duke's city, a gray-bone earth dragon that looked exactly like the one chasing Nalant was already standing next to the Pope.
There are many bloodthirsty bats and gargoyles in the sky.
Although it is said that because of Nalant's robbery, the Pope's original dream of completely encircling and annihilating the alliance forces in one week was shattered.
But as time goes by, the essence of the earth is still accumulated enough.
This took a long time, but the original goal was finally achieved.
"Your Majesty the Black Envoy, I am ready to order an attack!"
"Well, Dark Believer, it's up to you to give the order!" The armored knight nodded.
When the Pope heard this, he didn't hesitate and waved directly to the messenger beside him.
Woo!
Immediately, the Duke's trumpet sounded loudly.
Ho ho ho!
Following the horn, the densely packed dark creatures outside the city roared and rushed toward the Duke's City.
Woohoo!
"The dark creatures have begun to attack the city, everyone cheer up!"
Faced with this unprecedented general attack, all the guards on the city wall turned pale with fear. Upon seeing this, a group of minor nobles immediately shouted sternly to prevent the soldiers from being frightened and collapsing.
But at this moment, a group of noble representatives standing in the center of the city wall were arguing.
"Duke Miller, is this the result you want? It's okay now. Everyone will die with you in this Duke City and be buried with you for your stubbornness!"
Prince Eric's face was extremely ugly, and he did not give any face to point at Duke Miller and complain.
"Prince Eric, this is not the time to complain. I think Duke Miller's original intention is also for the lives of 200,000 soldiers!" Theodore, the president, couldn't bear to listen, and tied Duke Miller aside to explain.
One sentence.
"Haha, for the lives of 200,000 soldiers, so what now? 200,000 soldiers will also die, and the remaining elite cavalry and a group of nobles were able to escape successfully, but now they are trapped here!"
"Is this what Duke Miller meant?" Eric immediately retorted and mocked.
"Everyone, if it weren't for your hesitation two days ago and not following Eric's suggestion, I'm afraid we would have retreated to the edge of the isolation zone now. We only need to contact the alliance by then, and then we can sweep in with a large army!"
Eric looked around at the representatives of the principality's nobles.
However, the representatives of the principalities remained silent when they heard this, and did not know how to express their feelings at the moment.
Naturally, everyone did not want to die, but the problem was that it was unreasonable to blame Duke Miller for this incident.
After all, now that they are on the battlefield, it is definitely not a glorious thing for me and others to lead a strong team and abandon a group of ordinary guards.
"Prince Eric, as an alliance knight, actually should have the consciousness to die on the battlefield the moment he takes the oath to become a knight!"
"At this moment, there is actually no point in saying this. You can say that I, Miller, delayed your escape!"
"But I, Miller, want to tell you, if you face a strong enemy this time and immediately feel like retreating, what about the next time?"
"What if the dark creatures cross the isolation zone and attack the Thorn Fortress? Do you still want to escape?"
"Or if the Fortress of Thorns is breached, then where can you retreat to?"
"Fighting against dark creatures always requires determination to die!"
"If we didn't even have such determination, our entire continent would have been occupied by dark creatures long ago!"
