The silver elf commander took off his golden pointed helmet. He shook his head, letting his beautiful silver hair flow down like a waterfall, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. His pair of light silver eyes looked at the battlefield indifferently.
There was a mess on the ground. Lizardman corpses were scattered among the ruins. Blood flowed into small streams, trickling and flowing. The air was filled with a pungent fishy smell. This smell was enough to make most normal people feel nauseous, but for
For the bloody elf warriors, the smell of victory is floating in the air.
No, it is far from victory.
Euchir ran away, and his men tried to pursue him, but Namenes stopped them. The silver elf commander sheathed his gilded, engraved cage-handled command sword and struck at the others.
An advantage allowed them to gather together and prepare for the next step. His orders were decisive and precise, without any delay.
At the same time, he had seen Huque leading another group of elves from the other side of the battlefield.
This was not the first time that Huque had seen Namenis, but he couldn't help but was slightly startled. After the bloody battle, Namenis exuded an astonishing beauty. He originally seemed a little too feminine, but
The bloodstains on the golden armor set off a sense of discordant contrast. Coupled with the traditional silver elf hair and the indifferent expression on his face, the whole person had a strange attraction.
"Commander." Huque was stunned for a moment, but immediately responded: "The battle here is over."
"Yes." Namenis nodded.
He turned around and saw that the gray flag in the direction of the festival hall was still flying high, but no one knew to what extent the fighting there was going.
"But it is far from a victory." Namenis replied: "We will return immediately according to the original plan. I hope that your lord can truly fulfill his promise and not make fun of his own life."
"Wait a minute," Hu Que interrupted him: "The Lord's original order was not like this."
Namenes gave him a condescending look.
"You have also seen that monster. Even if we faced it in its heyday, we would have to be three against one to avoid losing. Do you really believe that your lord can hold him off for more than half an hour?" Silver Elf Commander Leng
He asked coldly: "Mr. Captain, my criterion for judging the situation of the battle is to take victory as the ultimate goal. On the battlefield against the Dragon of Darkness, there is no room for any kindness of women."
"But……"
"I don't have time to discuss with you. I just report our actions to the friendly forces as usual." The elf commander replied: "In other words, Miss Antitina is still your lord. In my opinion,
, the latter is far more important in this battle than the former, which side do you choose?"
Huque fell silent and couldn't help but glance in the direction of Antitina.
Namenis shook his head: "Okay, human beings, I have to explain to you one more thing: Medisa gave her life for this reason. It may seem unbelievable to you, but in our history, tolerance for oneself means giving up."
Hope for tomorrow, I hope you can understand this." Then he lowered his head and whispered: "About this, in fact, I have privately sought the consent of Miss Antitina."
After saying that, he stood up straight and waved his hand.
"Phoenix Guards, prepare and set off!"
…
In fact, just as Namenis and Tigress expected, the first battle commanded by Antitina did not go smoothly. Since there was no danger to defend, the lizardmen quickly broke into the first outer wall.
And because there are no obvious obstacles, the mercenaries are exposed to the range of the opponent's crossbowmen, and even long-range counterattacks are difficult to achieve in scale.
However, the tenacious fighting will of the Lubis mercenaries was clearly revealed at this moment. Under the impact of the three outermost mercenaries and enemies nearly thirty times their number, they lost their position three times in a row and regained it three times. The Lizardmen
The attack intensity was so high that Antitina twice ordered another team of mercenaries to support but was stopped halfway. The last remaining person among the three finally detonated the only disintegration crystal on his body.
, causing the largest casualties among the lizardmen since the war started in this direction:
Almost fifteen lizardmen fell on the sloping ladder between the first outer wall and the second outer wall.
But the subsequent battle became bloody. A brutal tug-of-war began between Lubis' mercenaries and the lizardmen. Almost every stronghold that could be defended was fought over by both sides. After paying 22:
After an exchange ratio of 4, the lizardmen finally broke through the outer wall and began to attack the central platform outside the altar hall.
At this time, nineteen minutes had passed since the two sides started fighting, and ten minutes had passed since the first contact from the rear.
The mercenaries began to shrink back, but this was not a long-term solution, because the space left for them to shrink their defense line gradually became narrower. Behind them, there was Antitina.
An arrow almost grazed the fair face of the noble daughter--
Blood drops quickly seeped out from under the cut skin, but the latter was unaware of it. She held the flagpole in both hands and stood firmly on the edge of the platform - the girl was calculating the changes in time and the battle situation, and she was waiting for someone.
Opportunity. However, every death of a mercenary on the battlefield made her heart heavy. Brando never suffered any casualties when he led them, but after only ten minutes in her hands, they suffered heavy casualties like this.
Especially when the little elf girl named Tiya rushed to block the fatal arrow for her, this noble daughter who had never experienced any war in person almost felt that the tears in her eyes were about to burst out uncontrollably.
But she still bit her lip tightly and endured. With one hand, she laid the pale and peaceful elf girl flat on the ground. Her body was still warm, as if she had just fallen asleep.
Then Antitina felt someone hand her a handkerchief.
She turned her head in surprise and saw Fuluo looking at her calmly. She was the sister of the dead girl.
"You are injured, Miss Antitina."
"No, it's okay..." Antitina took a deep breath, choked and said, "I'm sorry..."
Flo's pink lips moved. She wanted to say something but she still held it back. Brando didn't say anything, and she couldn't speak easily.
"Please give me the flagpole, Miss Antitina, it's too unsafe here." After hesitating, she said.
Antitina shook her head.
"No, this is my place." This was her promise to Brando, and she told herself that she must do it.
The lizardmen had broken through the fourth line of defense. The mercenaries retreated again. The two sides had approached the gentle slope formed by the collapse of one side of the platform below. Judging from the distance, it was less than fifty meters. Fuluo saw one of the lizardmen.
The crossbowmen had already raised their crossbows and were aiming in the air. Although their shooting accuracy could not be flattered, they still found the location under the flag after repeated attempts.
The elf girl frowned and stood in front of Antitina, holding down the elf rapier at her waist with one hand. Like her sister, she no longer had any spells, but even so, she still wanted to complete her
mission.
"Flo."
"kindness?"
"Thank you..." Antitina coughed and whispered.
The elf girl smiled slightly, but her gaze fell downwards again, and the expression on her face quickly became serious. The lizard people were tightening their heavy crossbows, and soon there was a creaking sound among them, but when
When they raised their crossbows again, she was not sure whether she could block all the crossbow bolts. She gritted her teeth and unconsciously tightened her grip on the sword hilt.
The crossbow was raised——
Antitina and Flo felt suffocated at the same time. Even if they looked at death, everyone would feel an impending sense of despair at the moment before facing death. But it seemed that the scene in their imagination did not happen, because
A small, shining crystal suddenly flew out from behind the two of them, and then drew a beautiful arc and fell into the group of lizards below.
It was like a blood-colored flower blooming in a dark green ocean. With a loud bang, the lizard man's severed limbs and internal organs suddenly flew in all directions, and then fell like a bloody rain. Everyone was stunned.
All of them, including lizardmen, mercenaries, and even Antitina and Flo. The only disintegration crystal left among them was the one in Antitina’s hand, but she had clearly given it to that person.
Three mercenaries have been used up!
Antitina turned around subconsciously——
She immediately heard a clang sound, and a long sword was thrown up from the ruins behind by someone unknown, and then she immediately saw Roman climbing up on his hands and knees below. She looked like she was going to die as soon as she came to the platform.
Lying there, breathing heavily, she looked at Antitina with a very proud smile: "Huh, I almost got lost, so... Huh, Huh... It wasn't easy to find this place!
An... Huh, Titina, I have learned swordsmanship and can protect you... Huh... Oh, I am exhausted..."
"Wait," the noble daughter couldn't help but ask after being stunned: "Roman, why are you here! No... not this, I mean, didn't you give your disintegration crystal to Brando?"
When the business lady heard this, she looked aggrieved. She held down her bag and whispered: "Well... Antitina, I only hid a little bit."
"How many, wait..." Antitina suddenly reacted. No wonder she always felt that there was something wrong with the power of the explosion that night! She immediately grabbed Roman's shoulders: "Damn it, didn't you mean that those more than ten bombs were with you?"
Did you use it last night? Was it those?"
"Absolutely, there are definitely not that many. Roman promises, Roman only has nine...no, eight."
Roman's expression changed, and he immediately shook his head like a rattle while rolling his eyes and replied.
