Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 371: The 'wayward' demon princess

Views:

"Duke, what's going on, why did you withdraw your troops?" Realta, the dwarf mountain king, returned to the command fort covered in blood, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"It was my idea." Link said.

"Master, you... why are you here? Do you still have energy?" Rierta never expected Link to join the frontal battle.

He has resisted the dark magic skills for the allied forces. As a magician, Link has done well enough.

Link nodded: "My strength has almost recovered, and our fighters are not many left. I just checked, and there are less than 13,000 people. If we fight like this, we will lose..."

Before he could finish his sentence, suddenly there was a scream from the black forest in the distance.

'Hiss~ hiss~'

The sound was very ear-piercing, a typical screaming Winged Demon's voice, and it spread throughout the battlefield as soon as it appeared.

After the sound appeared, the demons who were still madly attacking the city wall began to retreat after a short period of confusion.

On the city wall, the demons who had already climbed up began to jump down. The Balrog Fodor who was rushing into the city gate was also stunned for a while, and then began to run wildly. The dark elf who can't figure it out.

How did this happen

After so many soldiers died, they managed to break through a city wall, and the city wall in front of them was about to be breached, and then they just gave up? Are these demons mentally ill

This was not only the dark elves' thoughts, but the soldiers of the Allied Forces of Radiance were also stunned.

No one expected this turn of events.

Rierta pulled his beard vigorously with one hand, unbelievable: "Commander of the devil, did you get kicked in the head by a goat?"

"No, no, maybe he guessed that we will use magic." Duke Abel whispered, and he looked at Link: "Master, what should we do now?"

"We continue to retreat, and the dark elves haven't left yet." Link was also surprised by the courage of the demon commander, no matter what the other party thought, it would be too nonsense to withdraw the army when the offensive was going well.

They retreated because the city wall was about to fail. Although they retreated a little earlier, it was understandable. What happened to these demons

black forest.

Lodel stared at the black-haired woman with wide eyes: "Your Highness, why did you do this? We are about to win!"

In his view, although the human race is retreating, it will take time. As long as they attack immediately and catch up before the human race retreats, so what if the opponent has powerful magic? Could it be that he could also kill his own soldiers

Besides, Orida's fortress is so strong, it's obvious to all, so many soldiers died, it was finally broken through, and then just let go, this... Didn't the soldiers in front die in vain

When they withdrew, the opponent regrouped, reoccupied the city wall, and repaired the gap. They lost a large number of high-level demon fighters on their side, and it was still a matter of whether they could attack the fortress again.

Ah~~~ This woman is really a lunatic!

"Are you calling me a lunatic in your heart?" The dark girl asked with a smile.

Lodel was startled, and hurriedly shook his head in denial: "No, I don't have this idea at all, I just don't understand your approach. You know, there is a very strong steel fortress in the Orida Fortress, and these human races have obviously guarded it. It’s normal for them to retreat into the fort if they can’t hold the city wall anymore, the possibility of powerful magic appearing is too small.”

The human commander is not stupid, if there is such a magic, why not use it in the first place? Do we have to keep so many people dead

The black-haired girl nodded: "What you said is not wrong, but I am the commander of the demon legion. I just like to let my legion retreat at this time, and you have nothing to do with it."

Speaking of the latter, the black-haired girl's rosy mouth was shrunk, her chin was slightly lifted, and she snorted softly, with a proud and charming look on her face.

Lordel was speechless.

The mentor Emmons is dead. As the mentor's most important assistant, he was automatically promoted to the commander of the dark elf army. The situation was good, but now that the demon army suddenly retreated, he began to hesitate in his heart whether to let him Also back down.

But at this time, a hoarse voice came, it was Romand, the speaker of the Silver Moon Council.

He walked up and said in a very positive tone: "Don't retreat, keep attacking, they absolutely cannot have powerful magic! Resisting magical skills is enough to exhaust the strength of any mortal magician!"

Now, there are still more than 40,000 dark elf fighters, and nearly 2,000 dark ghosts. This strength is several times that of the Allied Forces of Radiance. The Allied Forces have no fighting spirit at all and are still retreating.

Only fools will withdraw!

Lodel was already a little vacillating, but when he heard Romand's words, he immediately made up his mind: "Pass the order, continue to attack!"

'Woo~woo~woo~' The dark elf used a bone horn, and the sound was desolate and shrill. It carried the will of the dark elf commander, and it was transmitted far to the front line.

The dark elf army was in a daze. Hearing the order, they stopped caring about the demon allies who had lost their minds, and turned to attack.

The hooked ropes were shot onto the city wall by the ballista, and the dark ghosts and dark elves still climbed up the city wall.

On the city wall, they encountered only sporadic resistance. The human warriors and dwarf warriors all withdrew, leaving only some shield warriors holding their shields, fighting and retreating.

"Stop chasing, open the city gate and consolidate your position!" A voice rang out, it was a dark elf general.

This general was none other than Londe, who was known as the Bloody Demon who once attacked Grystone at night.

He is now a level 7 warrior, the highest-ranked and most powerful dark elf general on the battlefield.

Hearing his voice, the dark elves immediately stopped their pursuit. Some of them went to open the city gate, while most of them collected the corpses on the ground and piled them on the aisle to form the simplest and bloodiest fortification.

While the dark elves were busy, the soldiers of the Allied Forces of Light had already withdrawn completely, and all the demon legions had also withdrawn to the Black Forest.

The Orida Fortress, which was screaming and killing just now, became very quiet at this time.

"Look, the human race didn't move at all, they just wanted to hide in the fortress as mice!" Romand sneered.

Lodel still had some doubts in his heart, but seeing that there was no movement in the fortress for a long time, and there were no unusual magic fluctuations, he was relieved, nodded and said: "It seems that there is nothing wrong."

The black-haired girl also clapped her hands and laughed: "Of course it's best if nothing happens. Rodel, we are allies. If something happens to you, I will feel sorry for you."

At this time, her exquisite face was really smiling, and she couldn't see the appearance of leaving her allies behind and withdrawing without permission.

What else can Lorde say? All he could do was keep silent.

At this time, no one in the Black Forest saw that in the direction of Orida Fortress, in the passage blocked by the dark elf's corpse, a figure walked up step by step, stepping on the bloody water and the corpse.

When he reached the top of the pile of corpses, the man stopped and looked at the dark elves tens of meters away.

At first, only one or two dark elves saw him. After a few seconds, a magic wand appeared in the man's left hand, and with a light 'poof' sound, a bright ball of light appeared.

Now, all the dark elves on the city wall saw him.

Everyone stopped what they were doing unconsciously, and looked at the black-haired young human race quietly. Many people had doubts on their faces, and some couldn't figure out what was going on.

Link wasn't in a hurry, his tiredness hadn't completely disappeared, and his body hadn't recovered to its full peak. In this case, it doesn't hurt to say a few more nonsense.

His eyes swept across the dark elves on the city wall, and finally, Link's eyes settled on the dark elf general Lund.

He smiled and said, "Hey, you, yes, it's you. Do you still recognize me?"

Lund frowned tightly. He felt that the human race in front of him looked familiar, very familiar, especially the eyes, he had definitely seen it somewhere.

He looked at Link carefully, and gradually, memories emerged.

It was a year and a half ago, when he led an army to attack Greenstone City at night, a young man who was also black-haired, but much thinner, knocked him down the city wall with Pyroblast.

At that time, the young man was wearing ordinary magic apprentice clothes, and his body was so thin that the wind could blow him away, while the man in front of him was tall and strong, with a rounder face, wearing clothes that only magic masters could wear. The exquisite magic short robe on her body, but those eyes, calm and deep... are exactly the same.

Before Deron could fully recall, someone among the dark elves recognized Link and shouted, "It's him! It's the devil-slaying hand of the human race!"

This voice reminded Londe like lightning, a surge of anger rushed out of his heart like lava, and his eyes turned blood red!

"It really is you!" He clenched the bloody glory sword in his hand, and put on a fighting posture: "A year ago, you blocked me from attacking Greenstone, but at that time, you had countless reinforcements by your side, and the devil princess Help you. Now, you are only one person, why do you stop my clan's 40,000 warriors!"

Link also smiled: "Yeah, what a coincidence. We met twice, and both times you were attacking the city and I was defending the city. The difference is that a year ago, I was just a little magician who had just started learning magic. , now... without further ado, try it for yourself!"

As soon as the words fell, the magic light at the tip of Link's wand turned into a crystal red ball of light, with a 'swish', a long whip quickly extended from the ball of light, it was the whip of slaughtering demons!

As soon as the whip appeared, it quickly extended for hundreds of meters, and it reached Longde in an instant. The tip of the whip emitted a dazzling light and rolled towards the back of Longde's head.

The attack was so sudden that Lund's pores exploded, he shrank his head, and swung his sword to block it.

'When~~~' A shock sounded, the Bloody Glory Sword in Lund's hand blocked the blow, but it didn't block it, and the sword in his hand was blown away directly.

Link is a level 8 mid-level dragon mage. With the bonus of Burning Heaven's Wrath, the strength of this Demon Slaughter Whip is close to level 9. Longde is still a level 7 fighter. The gap is too big, how could he be an opponent.

The long whip shook the Scarlet Glory Sword in his hand, and the castration continued. It hit Longde's face with a 'pop', and with a 'plop', Longde's head was blown off, and his body was also thrown into the ground. Go, straight down the city wall!

This is the tragedy of not having a strong man in charge.

If Mismel, Emmons, or even the fallen angels who chased Link and fled in embarrassment, any one of them would be able to chase Link and run away, but now, these strong men are all dead.

Link is not as strong as them, but he is still alive, so he has become the unstoppable strongest on this battlefield.

Lund was the commander on the battlefield, and he was also the strongest. Even the dark ghosts were no match for him. He was killed in seconds, and the remaining dark elves looked at each other in blank dismay.

In the Black Forest in the distance, Romande's eyes widened: "Is it him who has the power at the peak of level 8? Why does he still have power?"

Lordel was also taken aback: "He is alone, why should he fight against the army?"

The black-haired girl laughed: "Oh, it seems that my worries have come true. I want to see what kind of magic he will use? Could it be legendary magic?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Romand and Lordel turned pale and almost transparent.

Link used legendary magic. Emmons confirmed this, but Emmons also said that it was most likely due to the secret method Link used. He clearly saw Link's body at the time. There were a lot of scars.

This kind of secret method must not be used more, and in the previous battle, Link has never made a move, so they are not worried, but now, Link appeared alone, this matter is strange.

Romand and Lordel looked at each other, wouldn't they be really hit by the devil princess
