Chapter 96: Empress Dowager

'Long live! Everyone has escaped from Snow City safely!'

Although Xia Han wanted to say this, unfortunately the situation was not that optimistic.

"The death toll is 230...237...245..."

In the square, a new conflict broke out between soldiers of the two races. The escape tunnel arranged by the old woman was too narrow to accommodate all the people in a short time, and the orcs also hesitated before launching another attack.

Fortunately, there were still seriously injured orcs scattered in the square. Xia Han used these 'hostages' to force the archer team to stop. He was very fortunate that the commanders of these orcs had a sense of compatriots. It would be extremely dangerous if an unreasonable guy came.

.

A quarter of an hour later, the three thousand people had already left one after another. Xia Han looked at the death toll display of 270, and then counted the soldiers still fighting, adding up to more than 320.

He turned around and recited a spell, and two hot rotating fireballs flew to the ground.

There was a loud "boom", and the tunnel entrance that was originally opened was covered by rocks again. Now, let alone the beasts, not even the humans present could enter.

"What are you doing!" The sudden turn of events left the remaining resisters at a loss. Inadvertently, two of them were hit by the orc's axe.

However, Xia Han looked calm and his actions were reasonable. If he wanted others to leave the city smoothly, the road must be blocked - and some people must be left behind as victims of delaying time.

"I'm sorry." He lowered his head and apologized to the remaining soldiers: "I have to keep you here to buy time for everyone to escape. I think you should understand."

Driven by the biting cold wind in winter, his black hair floated: "I will stay with you until the last moment."

Xia Han felt a painful sense of deception in his heart. He had the trump card to survive. The implication of what he said was that he would fight with these soldiers and witness their death before running away.

But other people will not know this. In the eyes of the remaining human soldiers, this strange "girl" is fighting with them with the determination to die. They are strangers to each other, but the other party is planning to sacrifice his life to save Xuecheng.

of human beings.

The sublime body activated silently... The effect this time was not as strong as the first time, but it also penetrated deeply into the hearts of the soldiers, improving their morale and combat effectiveness.

"There is really no way..." "Even an outsider has such determination, so who do we have the right to complain." "Brothers, hold on to your position!"

One after another, people took hold of their weapons. They took a few steps back and formed a defensive line side by side. Only one person did not move, and that was a woman who was crying softly.

"You don't want to stay?" Xia Han ran over, used flames to repel the attacking orcs, and then asked her: "You want to leave?"

"No, I would love to stay...but I can't." The woman squatted on the ground, tears falling down: "My family died when I was a child, and only one younger brother is still in the Emerald City, whose life or death is uncertain. I have to

Go find him..."

"I can't die here."

Xia Han knew very little about how much disaster the war four years ago had caused to the people of the Jade Empire. But as he said from the beginning, the people who suffer the most harm in wars are always civilians... What will happen to a war?

How much grief and hatred among civilians will it generate?

In fact, if the soul of any decision-maker thinks deeply about war, he will not be able to bear the responsibility it brings.

The same is true for Xia Han. He is not a philanthropist, or in other words, many of his decisions have a cold side. However, even so, if it is not necessary, he will cut back his fangs. Just like the battle in front of him, there are only a few people missing.

It will not affect the overall situation.

"Bai Hu." He turned around and told the tired Bai Hu: "Take her out."

It happened that Bai Hu was also seriously injured, so Xia Han simply planned to let him take the woman away. He looked around at the others: "Who else is in a similar situation to her, let's leave too!"

His words made all the remaining soldiers stunned. The woman also raised her head and looked up at him with red eyes.

"Don't underestimate us, you bastards!" "It's a battle now!"

Some equally astonished orcs rushed forward with roars, but humans immediately blocked them.

"It's okay for me." "Me too, it's okay to die here." "Yi Zi, go back and let your mother-in-law take care of my wife."

Unexpectedly, no one made the same request as the women later. These soldiers who dared to stand on the outside with weapons and fight were originally the bravest elites in Snow City. Their strong hearts have not been softened by time, and they are not afraid of death.

"Everyone..." The woman named Ye Zi shed tears again. She wiped her eyes and said, "I...I still stay!"

Unfortunately, at this time, Xia Han had already called Bai Hu regardless, and asked, "Can I escape with her?"

"No problem." White Tiger Tina nodded. The city wall was not far away. It could break out even if it was tired: "But you won't come with me?"

Xia Han shook his head and refused.

"Okay, young man... I like your courage very much." The white tiger walked slowly to the woman, then stretched out his claws to catch her regardless of her struggle: "It's a pity that I won't be as stupid as you."

It turned back to Xia Han and smiled: "Farewell, my beautiful temporary master!" It threw the woman away, held it in its mouth, turned around and ran towards the city wall into a white light.

"It just said boy, I heard it right..." "Well, I noticed it too..."

Xia Han heard the conversation between the two people and turned around with a smile: "Who told you that I am a woman?"

He lit a fireball in his hand and threw it with cold eyes. Not only did it hit the orcs, but the afterglow of the flames also happened to burn the eyebrows of the two men. After that, no one dared to talk about his gender.

"The death toll is 271...273...276...280...288..."

In the final defensive battle, the death toll began to increase. Xia Han felt sore and unbearable after casting spells for a long time. He watched helplessly as the people around him fell, but he was unable to save himself.

The time is coming... It should be ready? It's better to wait a little longer...

Xia Han counted the time, but for some reason, he could not open his mouth to send a signal to the phoenix in the sky. Even though the people around him fell one by one, there was a premonition in his heart that prevented him from opening his mouth - he could not expose Feo

Na... She is the biggest trump card and cannot be used now.

This is an extremely cruel premonition for others, but Xia Han believes in his own intuition and his own judgment. Even if these people are all dead, he cannot expose Fiona casually.

All Xia Han can do is watch these people die 'mercilessly'...

"Stop, don't kill him!"

When the death toll had just reached 300, roars sounded from the rear of the Orcs, and then a familiar orc appeared, riding a war horse and running over - Gan Jiang, the most powerful commander of the Orcs in Snow City.

official.

He asked the orcs to stop attacking and walk at the front of all the teams.

"I want to talk to you." Gan Jiang said to Xia Han with a cold face: "I can let go of your actions and even let the people around you go now."
