Ryan's pursuit ended quickly, but judging from his somewhat annoyed face, it seemed that he did not leave Catherine behind or severely injure her this time. No one would say anything about this. Although Ryan had the ability to kill Catherine , that would require Catherine to stand still and take the beating. As both legendary mage, Catherine has too many ways to escape unscathed. Ryan can't do it all by himself, and it will be difficult to leave his opponent behind.
Therefore, Faras and the others did not complain when they saw Ryan coming back empty-handed. Faras walked over alone and whispered to Ryan that Master Victor had used the Gate of Time and Space to return to the Imperial Capital as planned, and everything here had already been done. It's over. If Ryan doesn't come back after a while, Faras and the other great magisters will join forces to break through the walls of Seawind City and let the elites of Jonas Legion rush into the city for street fighting.
Seeing that everything was being carried out according to his planned plan, Ryan's expression became much better. Just now he was chasing Catherine. Unexpectedly, when he caught up with her more than hundreds of kilometers away, he found that Catherine was simply staying there and waiting. He came over, and after seeing Ryan chasing after her, Catherine acted like she was at her mercy, which made Ryan not know how to deal with it.
Of course, Ryan knew very well that with Catherine's character, he would never be caught without mercy. If he took a step back and said that if he really took Catherine back, Ryan would not be very willing. Although there was no personal relationship between him and Catherine, after all, There were also some things that he absolutely couldn't talk about, such as the night in Faras's bedroom, or the accident in the City of Bones. Ryan didn't want Faras to be unhappy because of these things.
Of course, Ryan also has a very important excuse, that is, his teacher Ghalib once got rid of him and let Catherine go. Now Ryan has the strength to protect himself in front of Catherine, and even has a slight upper hand, so every time When facing Catherine, Ryan always gritted his teeth and wanted to teach the other party a lesson, but always relented at the last moment. This time was no exception. Ryan carefully told Catherine about the relationship between Ghalib and Catherine. , hoping that she could repent, but unexpectedly Catherine made a request to him in turn,
If Catherine repeats her old trick and asks Ryan to join the Army of the Undead, Ryan will definitely refuse, and maybe start a fight directly. Anyway, Catherine is strong enough to protect herself, and Ryan is not worried about accidentally killing the opponent, but Catherine But Ryan couldn't refuse this request. Seeing the guilt on Catherine's face, Ryan felt that the woman in front of him was still somewhat humane, not exactly the kind of undead creature that had abandoned everything.
This matter also has something to do with Ryan. After thinking about it, Ryan finally agreed to Catherine with a wry smile. Catherine's expression was so ever-changing that one could never figure out what this unparalleled beauty was thinking in her heart. The previous day She still looked extremely guilty for a second, which made Ryan feel that she was really sorry for not agreeing to her request. But when Ryan's promise was made, she left with a sweet smile on her face, and looked at the proud look in Catherine's eyes when she left. , Ryan was secretly annoyed, feeling as if he had fallen into his opponent's scheme. This mood always affected him to repeat the position in Seawind City,
Ryan spent more than an hour chasing Catherine back and forth. By the time he turned around, the battle outside Seawind City had long ended. Although there were still 50,000 Naga warriors and tens of thousands of undead elites stationed in Seawind City, But without the protection of the legendary strongman, this city has ceased to exist in name only. As long as Ryan and others are willing, and given a little bit of time, it will be easy for them to turn this place into ruins.
This truth is not only understood by humans, but also by the Nagas and undead in the city. So before Ryan could even say a few words to Faras, the scouts in front of him sent a surprising piece of information. A large number of enemies in Seawind City were The army actually began to escape towards the depths of the sea. Originally, Ryan didn't know how to explain the fact that he chased Catherine but let her escape unharmed. Now after learning the news, he was overjoyed, but the look on his face But he was full of anger, and at the same time, he rushed into the sky with a teleportation magic and flew towards the sea.
This time the Alliance's Eastern Expedition is not concerned with just recapturing some territory. The more important strategic goal is to completely defeat the enemy forces in this area so that they cannot pose a threat. Only in this way can this former enemy-occupied area be turned into a stable territory for itself. Behind, when the work was completed, this unexpected barrier appeared. It's no wonder that Ryan and others were anxious.
When all the leaders of the Alliance's Eastern Expedition gathered at General Orlando's office outside Seawind City, less than one-tenth of the enemy troops stationed in Seawind City were left. Not only that, according to the observations of the scouts and the great magicians such as Faras With the magic, the flanking troops originally deployed in the ocean on both sides of Seawind City also disappeared. I don’t know whether they retreated to Seawind City or turned around and dived into the sea.
Looking at the failed situation in front of him, Orlando couldn't help but sigh. If he was willing to wait a few more months, dozens of warships from the imperial fleet would go south to join them here. At that time, it would be impossible to besiege Seawind City. It would allow so many enemy troops to escape, but the half-demon army on the western front of the alliance and the main force of the undead army with no trace would never give Orlando such a long time. In fact, before and after Orlando and the others came to Seawind City, In the past few days, military reports of the fierce battle between Cassano and the vanguard of the half-demon forces have been placed in his hands. Although there were no problems under the strict defense of the alliance army, it was left to Orlando and the others to solve the problem on the Eastern Front. Time is running out,
"Brother-in-law, where do you think these guys will go?" Faras asked in a low voice.
"Star Luo Islands." Orlando sighed and replied,
The name Star Luo Islands immediately reminded everyone present of a notorious occupation, that is, the "pirates" who have been threatening the mainland's north-south shipping. However, those ferocious guys have not appeared for a long time, probably because of the undead army. It was swallowed up, but this time the remnants of the Undead Legion plus tens of thousands of elite Nagas, if they were to be entrenched somewhere in the Star Luo Islands and become pirates again, sooner or later they would pose a huge threat to the empire's north-south shipping and coastal cities. Of course, this threat No matter how quickly it takes effect, it will take a long time.
"It's a pity that we don't have that much time." General Orlando glanced at his companions, shook his head and said, "Forget it, although we didn't achieve full success this time, we basically accomplished the goal of this expedition. Now we Let’s recapture Seawind City as quickly as possible, and then leave some troops to guard this area to prevent the remnants of the enemy from counterattacking, and the remaining troops must be transferred to the Western Front in the shortest possible time.”
Clifford nodded. He looked up and looked at Ryan, who was flying in the distance and raging against the sea. He said with a wry smile: "These guys are smart. They scattered and escaped. Even if Ryan wanted to use the forbidden spell, he couldn't. The only way to catch them all in one go is to deplete some personnel and eliminate more."
"Unfortunately, even if we have reached the level of the Great Magister, we still cannot fly and fight in the sky for a long time. Even Alando has difficulty doing this. No wonder the sky and the ocean have always been restricted areas for us humans." Faras said with emotion: "At this point, we can't help Ryan kill the enemy, but we are not useless at all."
Seeing Faras smiling at him, Clifford also returned a smile. He said after Faras: "Come on, we several great magisters will work together to break through the defense of Seawind City, and then hand it over to A warrior of the imperial capital."
"Okay, give me the order and prepare to attack the city." Orlando waved his arm and issued the last attack order of this Eastern Expedition.
Seeing Seawind City being bombarded by the magic of the enemy's great mage, and looking at the legendary mage in the sky above him, the shark-turned-fishman Shark Die did not hesitate to dive his body into the deep sea, Ryan's Although magic can cause large-scale destruction, the scope is limited to the sea surface. After the shark-turned-fish-man-shark Dieye dives into the seabed hundreds of meters deep, he no longer has to worry about being attacked from the air.
This time, the shark-turned-fish-man-shark Die followed his master Sadurina to Seawind City through the teleportation magic circle. He originally thought that he could go on a killing spree. It would be best to kill some strong men and then devour their flesh and blood, so that he could regain his freedom. The purpose of an advancement, who knew that the nightmare of the shark-turned-fish-man would unfold just like that. The legendary human mage only used three spells to completely defeat the shark-turned-fish-man, forcing him to use his own secret skills to save his life. Only then was he lucky enough to stay. a life,
The current shark-turned-fishman Shark Dieye has lost his legendary power. Now he is at most an ordinary high-level warrior. Even if he can fully recover from his injuries in the future, I am afraid that it will be impossible to return to the legendary realm. , when thinking of this, the shark-turned-fish man hated Ryan extremely. He had offended many powerful people and forces under Sadurina's hands. Now that he no longer has the strength to protect himself, the shark-turned-fish man can't either. I plan to return to the bottom of the sea. If possible, I will find a place to hide in the deep sea area nearby.
The idea of shark-turned-fishmen has appeared in the minds of almost all Nagas and undead creatures who have successfully escaped. The Nagas came from afar and do not know the specific terrain here, but the undead creatures are very familiar with it. After all, among them Many of them were created in a secret base somewhere in the Star Luo Islands. Now that they have lost their commander, these undead creatures rely on their instincts to escape to the area where they were "born", while the smart ones among the Nagas quietly They followed behind these undead creatures until they saw a large star-studded archipelago,
