Demon King, Don’t Run Away

Chapter 646: Who is ringing the bell?

Views:

Before arriving at Dongwang City, Bai Jin, Iyas and He Meng did not choose to climb the towering city walls.

The two were initially responsible for covering the elite troops led by Yang Yu. After everyone had completed the climb, they turned to cover other troops.

During this period, many Rose soldiers attacked Bai Jin and her group on the flat ground.

Before Bai Jin could deploy the [Ghost Shadow Formation] and Iyas could use the [Holy Ripple], one sturdy orc after another stood in front of Bai Jin and Iyas.

"Hey, hey! You guys are really good at doing that to cute girls!"

"My only motivation to fight on the battlefield now is Miss Huanghua."

"Ahem, elves are extremely precious on the battlefield! Earlier, the commander said that we must protect them well! This is not a personal matter, this is official business!"

With the help of these "kind-hearted people", Bai Jin and Yias completely resolved the crisis without much effort.

At worst, when faced with an unsolvable danger, He Meng will step forward and act as a shield.

Of course, being protected by others is not the privilege of Bai Jin and Iyas alone. Other female soldiers fighting on the battlefield also received certain help from others.

When the battle reached midnight, some troops even gathered the female soldiers together and let them rest for two to three hours in a safer place on the battlefield, or let them escort the seriously wounded back to the camp for treatment and temporarily stay away from this dangerous place.

Iyas and Bai Jin appreciated the troops' kindness, but for such an important war, they hoped to do more and end it early.

Most of the other female soldiers thought the same.

They signed up to join the army not only because they were worried that there were not enough men to join the army, but also out of their own desire to do something for the country.

Except for taking a break of ten to twenty minutes occasionally, Bai Jin and Iyas constantly replenished their physical strength and mana with potions and fought until dawn.

The firepower on the city wall was getting weaker and weaker. Bai Jin and Iyas directed their attack on other Rose soldiers fighting under the city and achieved impressive results.

When the sun shines on the earth again, Bai Jin and Iyas, who have been fighting for a day and a night, have reached a level close to ninety.

As time slowly passed, the siege entered its endgame.

The Luhua army and Ka He were fighting fiercely and no one dared to approach.

Even though the battle lasted a day and a night, they did not feel tired at all, and swords flashed and clashed with each other.

Before the relationship between the Luoze Empire and the Wansheng Kingdom became so bad, Lu Huajun was also a swordsman who traveled around the world.

In order to continuously improve his sword skills, he visited various famous masters and learned their fighting techniques.

Hearing that there were many outstanding swordsmen in the Rose Empire, Lu Huajun resolutely applied to go to the Rose Empire.

However, even though the relationship between humans and orcs was not bad during those years, it was still quite difficult to directly cross the border and go to the human kingdom.

In the end, the Luhua Army only reached a few cities that had trade relations with humans.

It was also during that time that he met Ka He, a martial arts expert who taught others.

But as fate would have it, the peaceful exchanges between the Rose Empire and the Wansheng Kingdom did not last long, and war broke out.

The former master and apprentice parted ways because of their different philosophies and fought for their own countries.

The six-legged white horse charged again, and Ka He's spear collided with the Luhua Army's sword.

Ka He is one with his horse, and the warhorse under his crotch is as agile as his real legs, making him difficult to catch; Lu Huajun's sword blade is flying in the air, and combined with his hard antlers, he is able to resist Ka He's attacks again and again.

After several exchanges, neither of them gained the upper hand. The two men moved away from each other for a distance and stopped attacking tacitly.

"It can be seen that you have not neglected your training this year, and your skills are more outstanding than before."

"That's because you don't exercise and you're old. An old man like you should find a beautiful place to spend your remaining years instead of risking your life here.

Is there no one left in your Rose Empire

And let you, an old man, go to the battlefield."

"We in the Rose Empire have many people who are better than you.

But I think they are not qualified for the job.

The battlefield is cruel, so let me take care of the things that require you to go through fire and water.

After all, I am an old man, and I am dead if I die."

"Really? Is that what you think? Then I don't have to feel any psychological burden."

Luhua Jun raised his sword and pointed it at the card box. At this moment, a loud bell rang throughout the battlefield.

Three long tones, and three short tones.

"What does this bell sound mean?" Lu Huajun asked subconsciously.

"The signal to retreat. Apparently, they have decided to abandon the city.

Next time we fight again, this time we lose, even though we lose unwillingly."

After saying that, Ka He pulled the reins of his beloved horse, and the six-legged white horse changed direction, leading the fighting Rose soldiers and quickly leaving the battlefield, leaving only a small number of soldiers to cover the rear.

At this time, a bell rang, just as Ka He expected.

The card box has only one eye, but it does not affect his ability to observe the situation on the city wall.

The losses in their army were beyond imagination.

Dongwang City is a strategic location, but due to traitors mixed in the army, the creation that humans are so proud of is useless.

On the contrary, a large number of troops were dispersed due to the need to troubleshoot.

With such a large-scale failure, how many traitors are there in the team

How did those traitors conceal their tracks and cause so many artillery pieces to fail

There were so many things that needed to be investigated, and the orcs had already taken the absolute initiative. There was no point in continuing to fight.

Piruf on the city wall also realized this earlier, but just as he was about to give the order to retreat, the bell rang.

"What the hell is going on? I'm not dead yet! Who on earth gave the order to retreat and rang the bell?"

Piruf was the commanding general of this battle. Unless he died and the command was transferred to his lower level, it was forbidden to ring the retreat bell before he issued the actual retreat order.

How much Piluf wanted to get rid of Yang Yu and see who the bastard was, ring the bell for retreat, stuff the bell ringer into the wall, and then ring the bell himself.

No matter who the bell ringer was, all the soldiers fighting believed that Piruf had issued an order to retreat and began to retreat in an orderly manner.

The soldiers in the city no longer continued to go to the city wall to provide support, leaving only the soldiers on the city wall to struggle against the attack of the orc soldiers.

"Boy, you're lucky this time!"

After saying that, Piru jumped directly from the high city wall. When he was close to the ground, he punched the wall, using the recoil force as a buffer. While the orc soldiers had not yet climbed down the wall, he fled with the troops.
