Broken! The walls of the Holy Kingdom, which had stood for a hundred years, finally met their fate of collapse today.
General Helauren stabbed a sword into the body of a soldier of the Holy Light Kingdom. When General Helauren pulled out the sword again, he threw the dying soldier aside. Suddenly, a blood crystal beast rushed out from the side and swallowed the soldier.
General Helauren wiped the blood off his sword with his arm armor, then raised his head and glanced at the chaotic scene around him.
A strong and sturdy general from Yuannan wearing black armor was holding a huge axe. In an instant, a poor soldier from the Shenghui Kingdom was cut in half by the huge axe.
The general's name was Dune, and he was a general who drank dragon blood. In General Helauren's opinion, he was the one most likely to betray the Far South Empire.
It was just that the declaration of the Emperor of the Far South turned him from a traitor into a plunderer, plundering the resources of other countries.
"I haven't experienced such an enjoyable battle in a long time." Duan picked up his axe and looked at General Helauren standing beside him. "Helauren! Don't always have such a stinky face. Today we captured the city of Shenghui, and the emperor will not forget our contribution!"
You conquered it? Wasn't it the Blood Crystal Beast that conquered it
General Helauren did not like working with this rude and barbarian-like general.
He rode on his walking beast and looked at the street in the distance... There were no longer any soldiers from the Holy Light Kingdom on the street, only corpses and blood crystal beasts that were eating the corpses with relish.
"With these monsters, no one will be able to defeat Yuannan on the battlefield in the future!" General Duran excitedly threw a corpse to one of the blood crystal beasts.
There would be no need for soldiers, and without soldiers there would be no need for generals, and there would be no need for weapons like swords.
These were what General Helauren was thinking about.
He is an honorable and arrogant general, whose pride comes from his powerful magic and swordsmanship, as well as the elite soldiers under his command.
The legion commanded by General Helauren is undoubtedly the strongest in the Far South, and this is something General Helauren is proud of.
But the appearance of the blood crystal beast changed the pattern of the war.
If Shenghui really wins the war this time by relying on the blood crystal beasts...human soldiers may really be gradually eliminated by Yuannan.
"General Helauren! The Holy Light Kingdom's defense line has completely collapsed, and their soldiers have begun to retreat!"
A messenger from the front line rode a walking beast and ran quickly to the two generals, reporting a piece of news that sounded... too good to be true.
"The emperor's order is to annihilate all enemies! Chase them! Let the enemy's corpses feed these blood crystal beasts." Dunn gave the order directly.
General Helauren should have agreed with the general's decision, but his heart suddenly twitched, and a strong sense of crisis suddenly surged into his heart.
Something called intuition is telling General Helauren to escape from here quickly!
"Helauren! You're not scared, are you?" Dune had already ridden his beast for some distance when he suddenly discovered that Helauren, the empire's most elite warrior, could not keep up with his pace.
General Helauren has always trusted his intuition, which has saved him from death several times, so what he should do now is to give the order to evacuate.
Can…
"General Helauren, it's time for you to give the order." An adjutant reminded General Helauren.
General Helauren looked back and saw his trusted followers standing behind him and looking at him.
"The entire army, follow me..." General Helauren had just said half of his words when a roaring sound suddenly rang in his ears. The sound was so small that General Helauren could hardly hear it if he didn't listen carefully.
"What is that?"
A soldier from the Far South Empire was the first to see a dark shadow appear in the sky. At the soldier's reminder, all the soldiers raised their heads and looked towards the sky.
"Dragon? I heard that a dragon appeared on the front battlefield just now."
"Can a dragon fly that high?"
While the soldiers in the Far South were still discussing what the black shadow in the sky was, General Helauren's heart was beating so fast that it was about to explode.
"That bird seemed to have dropped something. Was it an egg?"
Looking up from the ground, the black shadow in the sky was indeed very small, but General Helauren heard the sound of something falling through the air.
General Helauren's breathing began to become disordered. His throat choked and he shouted a word to the soldiers behind him.
"run!"
The soldiers did not hear a word that General Helauren said, because the moment his shout rang out, the first batch of bombs dropped from the H-6K had already landed on the buildings on the edge of the city wall.
Behind General Helauren, brilliant flames erupted, accompanied by a deafening sound.
He had seen this scene before... The fire of punishment from heaven fell on his head once again! No! On the heads of those blood crystal beasts!
"Retreat! Escape from this city!"
General Helauren once again gave orders to the soldiers behind him.
The walking beasts fell into panic because of this series of explosions, and some of them raised their front hooves and knocked their masters to the ground.
"Is someone attacking the outer city wall with fire magic? Or is it the dragon that just escaped?" The soldiers still didn't understand what was going on.
"Soldiers! This is not something magicians and dragons can do! Evacuate this city! Before it is destroyed!" General Helauren shouted, raising his voice.
"General Helauren! Which direction should we evacuate?" A calmer knight asked a question that stunned General Helauren.
Where should I go? During the few seconds when General Helauren was confused, several explosions sounded all over the city.
“Follow me!”
This time, General Helauren could only choose to trust his intuition, but his intuition told him that... there was nowhere to escape.
A bomb happened to fall on the building in front of him, but it did not explode the moment it landed on the building.
"An egg made of iron?" A soldier saw the bomb. They did not realize that it was the culprit for the explosion on the edge of the city.
There were three or four more dull-witted soldiers who approached the oval object out of curiosity.
General Helauren didn't know what the oval object that smashed the roof of the building was, but when the walking beast under Helauren's crotch completely lost control and made a whimpering sound and tried to escape from here, he suddenly understood the source of the explosion on the edge of the city.
"There seems to be some words written on it." Out of curiosity, the soldier walked forward, wanting to see clearly the words on the surface of the oval object.
"Idiot! Get out of here!"
General Helauren's reminder seemed so pale and powerless. Before the soldier had the chance to step forward and see clearly what the "iron egg" was, it gave the soldier an unforgettable surprise.
The explosion, enough to destroy the three soldiers who had stepped forward, instantly erupted in front of General Helauren.
The huge impact instantly spread out from the building, and at the same time, there was an explosion loud enough to pierce the eardrums.
At this moment, General Helauren felt that the world around him was instantly moving away from him, and he was thrown heavily to the ground by the impact of the explosion.
