Chapter 179: The early warning of the investigation team
As the two leading Legendary Evil Contractors escaped, the demon clones attacking the Belhain below quickly ushered in the joint efforts of the three Legendary Professionals to sweep them away.
Drognan and Sarah sandwiched the remaining thousands of winged demons from both sides and started a massacre. Farah was like a lightning bomber, accurately throwing water shark demons from high altitudes at the sea below.
lightning javelin.
The remaining professionals also drew their weapons and joined the battle. While beating the drowned dogs, they also wanted to harvest this last wave of experience under the cover of the legendary strong men.
The identity of hunter and prey between humans and demons was suddenly reversed, and the clones of the Winged Demon and the Water Shark Demon began to flee in all directions.
Only half an hour later, the sky above the Bellhain and the sea below returned to calm. The flagship of the Royal Fleet was finally saved from this catastrophe.
At this point, this call for support initiated by the Demon Fortress Council was over for Lu Gaoyin, and the people of the Eastern Desert paid an unimaginably high price for it.
On the royal fleet that went to support Kurast, there were not only the naval soldiers carried by the fleet itself, but also the first squadron, third squadron and second squadron of the royal guards specially dispatched by the king, a total of more than 6,000 royal guards soldiers.
They are all professionals or mercenaries of at least level 30 or above.
This time, the loss of the Royal Guards could almost be described as a catastrophic disaster.
More than 800 people in the First Squadron were dead or missing, accounting for more than half of the entire squadron.
Most of the people in the Third Squadron are on the Dehain, and there were originally more than 1,000 people left. However, due to the sudden explosion and sinking of the Dehain, there are now only more than 700 people in the Third Squadron.
The second group was the worst, because this group was directly under the jurisdiction of the Paladin of the Royal Shield, so when the fleet was ambushed, they also received key care.
All the winged demons and other demons that were brought over by the winged demons and thrown onto the deck of the ship to cause destruction, their first targets were the soldiers of the second battalion of the Royal Guards.
In addition, two guys among the Evil Contractors wanted to shake the paladin's faith by massacring his subordinates, so they carried out a bloody sweep of the second brigade.
All of this combined resulted in the complete defeat of the Guards brigade, which originally numbered around 3,000 people and was led by a legendary professional.
Many of their members were distributed on some other small and medium-sized ships, but they were sunk by the demons and the legendary evil contracters, including the people and the ship.
In the end, there were only 26 people left in the second brigade, and none of the higher-level squad leaders or squad leaders survived.
Fortunately, the Imperial Guards were all professionals or mercenaries, otherwise the twenty-six who survived would have been disabled or disabled.
When the crisis dissipated, the four legendary professionals gathered on the front deck of the Bell Hein. Looking at the professionals in front of them, who were countless times thinner, a deep sense of sadness arose in everyone's heart.
Lu Gaoyin sent 6,000 professionals, a powerful fleet and three legendary professionals to support Kurast, but now only less than 2,000 professionals and a scarred royal fleet have returned.
flagship.
Even one of the legendary professionals died on the battlefield.
With such an ending, how do you ask them to explain to the people of Lu Gaoyin?
How many wives will lose their husbands, how many parents will lose their children, and how many families will be torn apart?
Farah knew that many of the royal guards were blood relatives, including fathers, sons, mothers and daughters.
These people are all professionals who have exhausted their potential and have chosen to return to Lugaoyin to settle down.
They married wives and had children in the hinterland of mankind, and hoped to spend the rest of their lives in peace and security in the prosperous and safe desert pearl.
After their children were born, some of them also became professionals or mercenaries. Also, some children whose level limit was not enough to support them in going to the second world finally chose to return to Lu Gaoyin and join Glory with their parents and the salary was extremely high.
It is high and allows them to exert some residual heat among the royal guards.
In fact, their original intention was not for this moment. What they now hope is to run their own families well, live in the open air for half their lives, and live a peaceful and peaceful life from birth to death.
But now, they are all dead.
All that was left were two helpless mothers and wives.
Zhuo Genan and Farah looked at each other and sighed silently.
Sothea stood beside the ship's side and poured a bottle of fire coral wine into the sea.
The scene fell silent for a while, and it was not until ten minutes later that Farah turned around and asked Drognan about the specific circumstances of the fleet's ambush.
Seeing him asking this, Farah sighed heavily, grabbed a wooden wine bottle on the table next to her, and poured a large gulp of spicy wine down her throat.
"Actually, before we entered the ambush circle of hell, we received an alarm from 'Ji Kul'.
The alarm seemed to have been issued by the demon fortress investigation team that set out from Kejistan and crossed the wetlands to Kurast. They seemed to have discovered something, so a legendary professional sent us a very brief warning message.
.
The warning message is short, only one sentence.
'Kurast has fallen, retreat immediately and do not move forward!'"
Farah covered her face in pain, and some wine slowly flowed down the messy black beard from the corner of her mouth.
"Since you have received the warning, why did you step into the ambush of the Evil Contractors?" Farah frowned and asked in disbelief.
It is courageous to go to the tiger mountain when you know that there are tigers in the mountain, but you must first understand the situation. Rushing in without knowing anything is not called courage, it is called stupidity.
"We don't want to either! Sothea and I had the same opinion at the time. We both wanted to stop advancing first, send a small force to investigate the situation ahead, and send people back to report to the king.
But Ford Polis (the fallen legendary paladin) is almost going crazy if he wants to make meritorious deeds! You may not know that this time he led the Guards to participate in the operation to support Kurast. It was the old Ford who tried to show his old face and refused to do so.
His Majesty the King is coming over.
In order to gain enough merit in this operation to return to the front line of the second world, this old guy is desperate!
He completely ignored my and Sosia's opinions and insisted on taking the fleet to break into Kurast. He also believed that we have three legendary strong men on our side. Even if we encounter an ambush, we can break through the ambush circle with our strength.
But who knows in the end...Hey!
People from the Polis family! Hey..."
Zhuo Genan couldn't stop sighing and beating his chest when he thought of the overwhelming swarm of demons that attacked and the five legendary evil contracters who suddenly appeared in front of them.
Even the white hair on the temples seems to have a few more strands.
"This..." Upon hearing his answer, Farah was stunned and stunned for a while.
The Polis family had always been arrogant and had their own way of doing things. He knew this, but he never expected that the old paladin who was born in the same era as them would actually make such a mistake this time.
"It was precisely because of his guilt over his own mistakes in judgment and self-indulgence that caused the Royal Fleet to fall into such a desperate situation that Lord Ford made the decision to sacrifice himself at the last moment to create opportunities for us... In a sense, he
It can be regarded as making up for some of my mistakes..."
Sothea threw the wine bottle into the sea, stood on the side of the ship with her head hanging down and said with a depressed expression.
After she finished speaking, the atmosphere once again fell into an unspeakable silence.
Legendary Amazon Sarah did not interrupt from beginning to end. She just quietly looked at the small ship full of Amazons accompanying the Belhain, with a rather solemn expression on her face.
"So... everyone from the investigation team has arrived in Kurast?
Also, why are they in Jikul? Wasn’t that place incorporated into Kurast a long time ago and declared abandoned?”
After a moment of silence, Farah continued to speak, turning the topic to the direction of Kurast's form.
It is too late to say anything about how Ford Polis's behavior should be judged. After all, he has paid the price with his life for what he did.
"We don't know this, but the message we received was not only very brief, but also had a very urgent tone. Obviously their situation is not very good..."
Zhuo Genan shook his head.
"Well, it seems that we still need to contact the Demon Fortress Council after we return..."
