"If you don't want to make changes, then all the civilians and believers in the Flame Continent will be buried with him!"
"Okay, commanders, I think it's time for me to say goodbye. Remember, live well. Only by living can you better help your believers in the Flame Continent!"
After finishing speaking, Nalant did not wait for the responses from the Acropolis commanders, and disappeared from the place with a spatial teleport.
"This..." As Nalant disappeared, all the Acropolis commanders looked at each other with doubts on their faces.
Narant says they will not die, why?
According to the current situation, more than half of the subordinates on the city wall have been killed or injured, and he and others will definitely not abandon their subordinates and escape.
The city guards and the high priest of the flames plotted against themselves and others.
If he and others don't die, then they probably won't come to support him.
Therefore, no matter what, I and others must die.
Boom!
Boom!
"What's the sound?" Just as the Acropolis commanders were thinking, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound coming from the dark night.
"It's a war horse. Where did the war horse come from at this time?"
But soon, they recognized the sound of galloping war horses.
The commanders of the acropolis turned and looked into the city. There were no war horses coming to support them, and the road was still quiet.
In this case, only the outside of the city is left.
But there is no need for the Wave Legion outside the city to dispatch cavalry. The city wall has not yet been breached.
"Wait, could it be..."
All the Acropolis commanders suddenly thought of what Nalant said before.
And this is also true. At this moment, roaring sounds were also heard outside the city.
"Knights of the Storm, charge!"
Accompanied by the exclamations of the Wave Legion soldiers, "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
Immediately, a cavalry force of more than ten thousand people was seen pouring directly into the siege team of the Wave Legion like a rushing flood.
These unsuspecting soldiers were immediately rushed to pieces.
In just one minute, the cavalry team directly penetrated the siege team of the Wave Legion.
After cutting through the team, the cavalry team turned around again.
Then there was another roar, and the cavalry team once again attacked the attacking team of the Wave Legion.
Following the wails and screams, there was chaos outside the city.
The pressure on the city wall naturally caused a scream in an instant.
The leaders of the Acropolis looked at each other, with endless expressions of emotion in their eyes.
"Lord Narante's Knights of the Storm! He said we would not die today. It turned out that he sent out the cavalry to save us!"
The hearts of the Acropolis commanders were extremely complicated at this time.
The city guards and the Flame High Priest, who were supposed to support him and others, became the ones who framed them.
But Narant, who was originally an enemy, rescued them from desperate situations again and again.
To be honest, they really don't know how to repay Nalant.
"Everyone, let's drive these Wave Legion soldiers off the city wall first. The cavalry from the Wave Legion camp will probably be dispatched soon, and we don't have much time!"
The leader of Nuk City was the first to react and woke everyone up.
"Yes, we have to seize the opportunity and not let down Lord Nalant's good intentions."
Afterwards, several Acropolis commanders immediately joined the battle, and at the same time boosted the morale of their subordinates to start a counterattack.
When the soldiers of the Wave Legion on the city wall saw a group of enemies suddenly appear outside the city.
He also killed the following teams to the point where their morale suddenly fell to the bottom.
Even many Wave Legion soldiers who were still on the ladder simply climbed down directly.
The subsequent team did not come to support, which made the soldiers on the city wall even more panicked.
Suddenly, the soldiers of the Wave Legion, who were still in sight of victory, immediately verified that they were defeated and hurriedly began to pull down the city wall.
Even because of the crowding, from time to time an unlucky person would be pushed off the city wall by his companions and fall solidly onto the hard ground below.
"What's going on? Where did this team come from? Are the scouts asleep? These damn guys!"
In the Wave Legion camp, the commander of the Wave Legion looked ashen.
Looking at the enemies galloping back and forth outside the holy city not far away, he had the desire to kill.
Originally seeing victory in sight, who would have thought that such a cavalry force would appear out of nowhere.
It stands to reason that they have sent at least hundreds of scouts, so the enemy cannot come without any warning.
"Lord Commander, I don't know what's going on. None of the scouts in the south have reported anything. There may have been something wrong."
"And these enemies are very cunning. They wrapped cotton cloth on the horses' hooves, so we only discovered their presence at the moment they charged!"
The captain in charge of the scouts was so frightened that he immediately explained.
The reason why the scouts sent by the Wave Legion did not return is naturally due to the Nalant Eagle Squadron.
With the Swift Eagle here, the activity tracks of these scouts have long been clearly detected.
Then we only need to let the Hawkmon team take action. How can the scouts on the ground be the opponent of the Sky Knight?
As a result, no matter how careful the Wave Legion is, it is impossible to predict the problem.
"South? Isn't the south...wait, is there a problem in Pica City?"
Suddenly, the expression of the leader of the Wave Legion changed drastically.
Because Nalant almost wiped out all the coalition forces of gods in Napika City, the news had not had time to spread.
Even if there were some lucky escapes, they would naturally not be as fast as Nalant's march.
Of course, if Nalant does not appear here tonight, then the news will probably be known to the Wave Legion by tomorrow morning at the latest.
After all, the Wave Legion is the closest to Pika City.
"Damn it, has the cavalry regiment been assembled yet?"
Thinking of this bad premonition, the leader of the Wave Legion did not dare to neglect and immediately asked his subordinates.
"Lord Commander, it will take ten more minutes!"
"Damn it, hurry up!" Hearing this, the leader of the Wave Legion continued to urge.
But in the next moment, the leader of the Wave Legion realized that he no longer needed to assemble the cavalry.
Because the cavalry that attacked them was actually preparing to withdraw after completely disrupting the attacking army.
Moreover, before they evacuated, they actually came close to the camp.
"Wave Legion, listen up, the city of Pika that your divine coalition robbed has been recaptured by our Io mainland army."
"In addition, this attack is a lesson to you. If you dare to invade our Io Continental Army for no reason in the future, then we will definitely retaliate with tooth for tooth and blood for blood!"
"Knights of the Storm, retreat!"
After saying that, the cavalry headed south and then disappeared into the night.
"Your Majesty, the cavalry regiment has been assembled. Do you want to give chase?" At this time, his subordinates hurried over.
"Get out of here!" The leader of the Wave Legion was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Not only did tonight's attack fall short, but he was also slapped in the face by the enemy. He didn't know how to explain to the gods later.
"Retreat my troops!"
However, it is no longer realistic to continue to attack the city now, because all the teams on the city wall have been driven off.
As for the soldiers who want to gather outside the city, it may not be until dawn before they can assemble again.
Gritting his teeth, the commander of the Wave Legion ordered the troops to retreat, and at the same time he walked tremblingly towards the tent of the God of Waves.
…
"What's going on? What happened outside the city just now?"
In the Holy City of Flame, the city guard commander was a little confused as to why the movement outside the city had become different.
"Lord Commander, there seems to be cavalry outside the city!"
But soon, the subordinate on guard outside the house ran in and reported.
"Cavalry? Where did the cavalry come from?" The city guard commander was a little confused.
"Your Majesty, my subordinates don't know either, but they saw from high altitude that those cavalry were specially designed to attack the soldiers of the Wave Legion."
"At this time, the attacking team outside the city of Wave Legion has been dispersed and suffered heavy losses!" The subordinate shook his head after hearing this.
Because of the distance, they couldn't hear the shouts outside the city at all.
"The attack of the Wave Legion was dispersed? Damn it, what happened!" The commander of the city guard was not calm now.
The conspiracy he finally set up, with victory in sight, now actually told him that the attack outside the city had been interrupted.
This helps him calm down.
"How is the condition on the city wall?"
"Lord Commander, the number of Wave Legion soldiers on the city wall has begun to decrease!"
Woohoo!
At this moment, the faint sound of horns reached the city.
"This is... the clarion call for the Wave Legion to retreat?"
"Asshole, damn it, how could this happen!"
The commander of the city guard's face was ashen, his eyes were full of blood and anger, and he looked like he had the urge to eat people.
When his subordinates saw this, they couldn't help but take a step back in fear.
Obviously, with the sound of the horn, it means that their plan has completely failed.
Victory was already in sight, but in the end the cooked duck flew away. No wonder he was so excited.
Moreover, if several Acropolis commanders find out what happened this time, it will not be so easy to kill them again in the future.
"Commander...Commander, now that the enemy has retreated, we...should we go to support, no...otherwise, what if we are noticed by the commanders of the Acropolis!"
Although the current appearance of his leader was terrifying, his captain had no choice but to bite the bullet and warn him.
Because if it were any later, they would have exposed their secrets.
"Let people go to support immediately!"
The city guard commander also came to his senses after hearing this, gritted his teeth and issued an order to his men.
"Yes, Lord Commander!"
Immediately, his men retreated and led tens of thousands of city guards toward the front city wall.
"Quick, speed up, the front wall needs support!"
"Hurry up!"
With shouts and shouts, tens of thousands of city guards rushed up the city wall.
And when they rushed up to the city wall, what they saw was that the ground was bright red, and the corpses of enemies and Acropolis soldiers were lying on the ground.
The surviving city guard soldiers were all slumped on the ground covered in blood, as if they had walked out of hell.
When seeing them, these Acropolis soldiers did not show any expression of joy, but looked at them coldly.
That look made the city guard soldiers feel uncomfortable all over.
When the city guard captain who led the team saw this, he immediately said bravely: "Brothers of the city guard, I'm sorry that we are late."
"The Ice Legion attack behind the city is too fierce, and there are a large number of spies to provide internal support for them."
Since the plan failed, naturally these Acropolis soldiers should not know about this matter.
Even if we cover it up now, there may still be many loopholes, but there is nothing we can do about it.
"Really? The rear city wall was almost breached and you went to support us. Then our front wall was breached. Can the Holy City be saved?"
At this moment, several city guard commanders came over and asked the captain of the city guard.
"These... commanders, the main reason is that we did not expect that the battle on the front wall would be so fierce!"
The city guard captain's expression changed several times, and he found an excuse again.
"Huh, let us rescue the wounded first. We are too lazy to question you, the little captain. We will naturally go back and question your commander later!"
Fortunately, several Acropolis commanders also looked down upon a mere captain like him, and immediately dismissed him coldly.
"Okay, I'll have people start rescuing the wounded right now!"
Immediately, the captain of the city guard led his people to rescue the wounded.
The several Acropolis commanders looked at each other and led thousands of subordinates towards the direction of the temple.
boom!
"Cavalry? Coming from the south, it's that damn boy again!"
In the temple, the city guard commander has arrived and informed the Flame High Priest of the failure of the plan.
After learning that it was a cavalry team from the south that ruined their good deeds, the Flame High Priest immediately guessed the identity of the spoilers.
At that moment, the expression on his face almost became distorted.
Because Nalant kept causing trouble for him again and again, not to mention that Nalant's existence had already damaged his prestige.
It even made him bear the label of blasphemy.
Just for this reason, the Flame High Priest wanted to eat Nalant alive.
"Your Majesty the High Priest, what should we do now? We failed to kill those Acropolis commanders tonight. I'm afraid they will notice some clues later." The city guard commander spoke in a low voice.
"What should I do? Isn't there an excuse for being attacked behind the city wall? Just use this excuse to shut their mouths."
"Do they want any other reason? This holy city is still decided by me, the high priest!"
Although the plan had failed, the Flame High Priest was not as uneasy as the city guard commander.
The commander of the city guard thought that some of the commanders of the city guard might find out the clues and cause trouble.
But the Flame High Priest is confident. Even if they find some clues, as long as they don't get 100% evidence, they don't dare to make mistakes.
At least they dare not do anything to the high priest themselves, otherwise they will never be able to bear the accusation of betraying the gods.
"But then again, these guys will never be reused in the future. I have to find a way to take away the military power in their hands." The Flame High Priest continued at this time.
Just as the Flame High Priest finished speaking, a report from his subordinates came from outside the temple door, "My Lord High Priest, the Commander of the Acropolis wishes to see you."
"They're here so soon, let them in!" The Flame High Priest was not surprised.
