The silver elf commander took off the golden spire helmet, he shook his head, letting a beautiful silver hair sway down like a waterfall, and let out a sigh of relief. His pale silver eyes looked indifferently at the mess on the battlefield. Lizardmen’s corpses were laid out among the ruins. The blood flowed into a stream, trickling, and the air was full of pungent smell. This kind of smell is enough to make most normal people nauseous, but for the bloody elf warrior, it is the smell of victory in the air.

No, it is far from victory.

Yukhki ran away, and his men wanted to pursue, but Namenis stopped them. The silver elf commander put his gilded pierced cage handle commanding sword into its sheath, and then gave the others an advantage to gather them and prepare for the next move. His orders were decisive and accurate, without procrastination.

At the same time, he had seen Tiger Sparrow and another group of elves coming from the other side of the battlefield.

It's not the first time Tiger Sparrow has seen Na Menis, but he still couldn't help but froze for a while. After the bloody battle, Na Menis exuded an astonishing beauty. He was a bit too feminine at first, but the blood on the golden armor set off a discordant contrast. In addition to the silver elves’ traditional long silver hair and an indifferent expression, he actually gave birth to a demon. Different attraction comes.

"Commander." Huque was taken aback for a moment, but immediately reacted: "The battle here is over."

"Yes." Nameniz nodded.

He turned his head, the gray flag in the direction of the festival hall was still flying high, but no one knew how far the battle was going.

"But it's still far from victory." Namenis replied, "We will return to the original road as planned. I hope that your lord can truly fulfill his promise instead of joking about his life."

"Wait," Huque interrupted him: "Lord Lord's original order was not like this."

Namenis gave him a condescending look.

"You have seen that monster too. Even if we face it in its heyday, we have to be three-to-one to keep the wind down. Do you really believe that your lord can hold him for more than half an hour?" Silver Elf Commander Leng Asked coldly: "Mr. Captain, my criterion for judging a battle is to win as the ultimate goal. On the battlefield against the Dragon of Darkness, no woman's benevolence is tolerated."

"But… "

"I don't have time to discuss with you. I just inform the friendly forces of our actions as usual." The wizard commander replied, "Or in other words, Miss Antitina is still your lord, in my opinion. , The latter is far more important in this battle than the former, which side do you choose?"

Tiger Sparrow fell silent and couldn't help but glance at the direction where Antitina was.

Namenis shook his head: "Well, human, I need to explain to you: Medissa gave her life for this reason, which may seem inconceivable to you, but in our history, tolerance to oneself is to give up. Hope for tomorrow, I hope you can understand this." Then he lowered his head and whispered, "In fact, I have privately sought the consent of Miss Antitina on this point."

After that, he stood up and waved his hand.

"Phoenix Guard, prepare and set off!"

In fact, just as Namenis and Tiger Sparrow had expected, the first battle under the command of Antitina did not go smoothly. Because there was no danger to defend, the lizardmen quickly broke into the first outer wall, and because there were no obvious obstacles, the mercenaries were exposed within the range of the opponent's crossbowmen, and it was difficult to form even if it was a long-range counterattack. scale.

However, at this moment, the tenacious fighting will of the Lubis mercenaries was undoubtedly revealed. Under the impact of the three outermost mercenaries and enemies that were nearly thirty times as large as them, they lost their positions three times in a row and regained them three times. The attack density of the lizardmen was so high that Antitina ordered another team of mercenaries to support her and was stopped on the way twice. The last one of the three eventually detonated the only one on her body. The solution crystal caused the biggest casualties of the lizard people since the war started in this direction:

Almost fifteen lizardmen fell on the inclined ladder between the first and second outer walls.

But the battle that followed became bloody. There was a cruel tug of war between Lubis's mercenaries and the lizardmen, and almost every stronghold that could be used to defend both sides had to fight for ground meat. After paying a 22:4 exchange ratio, the Lizardmen finally broke through the outer wall and began to attack the central platform outside the altar hall.

At this time, nineteen minutes have passed since the two sides started fighting, and ten minutes have passed since the first contact between the rear.

The mercenaries began to shrink back, but this was not a long-term solution, because the space left for them to shrink their defenses gradually became narrower. Afterwards, it was Antitina.

An arrow almost flew past the white face of this noble daughter—

Blood beads quickly seeped out from under the cut skin, but the latter was unaware of it. Holding the flagpole in both hands, she always stood firmly on the edge of the platform-the girl was calculating the time and the changes in the battle situation, and she was waiting for an opportunity. However, every mercenary death on the battlefield weighed on her heart. Brando had never suffered any casualties when they led them, but it took more than ten minutes to hand them over to her.

Especially when the little elf girl named Tiya rushed to block her deadly arrow, this noble daughter who had not experienced any wars in person almost felt the tears in her eyes bursting out of the bank uncontrollably. But she still bit her lips tightly and stubbornly, one hand placed the pale and serene elf girl flat on the ground, the remaining warmth of her body, as if she had just fallen asleep.

Then Antitina felt someone hand her a handkerchief.

She turned her head in surprise, and saw that Fro looked at her calmly, she was the sister of the dead girl.

"You are injured, Miss Antitina."

"No, it doesn't matter..." Antitina took a deep breath, choked up and said, "I'm sorry..."

Fro's pink lips moved a bit, but he could bear it down if he wanted to say anything. Brando didn't say, and she couldn't speak easily.

"Please give me the flagpole, Miss Antitina, it's too unsafe here." After hesitating for a while, she said.

Antitina shook her head.

"No, this is my position." This was her promise to Brando, and she told herself that she had to do it.

The lizardmen had broken through the fourth line of defense, and the mercenaries stepped back again, and the two sides had already approached the gentle slope formed by the collapse of one side of the platform below. From the distance point of view, it is less than fifty meters. Flo saw that the crossbows among the lizardmen had raised their crossbows and they were aiming in the air. Although their shooting accuracy was not flattering, after repeated attempts, they found their position under the banner.

The elf girl frowned and stood in front of Antitina, holding the elf rapier on her waist with one hand. Like her sister, she has no spells anymore, but even so, she still has to fulfill her mission.

"Fro."

"Yep?"

"Thank you..." Antitina coughed and whispered.

The elf girl smiled slightly, but her gaze fell down again, and the expression on her face quickly became serious again. The lizards were tightening heavy crossbows, and they quickly made a creaking sound in their clusters, but when they raised the crossbow again, she was not sure whether she could block all these crossbows. She gritted her teeth and clenched the hilt of her sword unconsciously.

The crossbow was raised—

Antitina and Fro felt breathless at the same time, even if they saw death as home, but at the moment before death, everyone would feel a sense of imminent despair. It just seems that the scene in the imagination did not happen, because a small, shining crystal suddenly flew out from behind the two, and then drew a beautiful arc and fell into the group of lizards below.

It seemed to be a blood-colored flower blooming in a dark green ocean, and there was a loud noise, and the lizardman's broken limbs and internal organs fluttered in all directions, and then fell like a bloody rain. Everyone was stunned, including the lizardmen, including the mercenaries, and even Antitina and Fro. The only disintegration crystal left among them was the one in Anttina's hand, but she had obviously given it to the three mercenaries to use it!

Antitina turned her head subconsciously—

She immediately heard a bang, and a long sword was thrown up from under the ruins behind, unknown who was thrown up. Then she immediately saw Roman below, climbing up with his hands and feet. As soon as she came to the platform, she lay there as if she was dying, panting, watching Antitina with a super proud smile: "Huh, I almost got lost, okay... Huh, huh Huh... It’s not easy to find here! Ann... Huh, Tina, I have learned swordsmanship and can protect you... Huhu... Oh, I’m exhausted..."

"Wait," the noble daughter couldn't help asking after a daze, "Roman, why did you come here! No... not this, I mean, didn't you give Brando your disintegration crystal?"

The merchant lady showed aggrieved expression when she heard this. She held down her bag and whispered: "Um... Antitina, I only hid a little bit."

"How much, wait..." Antitina suddenly reacted, no wonder she always felt that the power of the explosion that night was not right! She immediately grabbed Roman by the shoulder: "Damn it, didn't you say that the dozen or so of them were used together last night? Are they those?"

"Absolutely, absolutely not so many, Roman promises, Roman only has nine... No, eight."

Roman's complexion changed, and he immediately shook his head like a rattle, rolling his eyes and replied.
