Chapter 918 is all fake
Things in the Demon Tower have been done, but things on the battlefield have not ended.
In this decisive battle, the only thing Everta did from beginning to end was "firepower coverage strike" - along with the royal troops and Viper Cross in Enrique City, the two combat forces basically became ashes in the flames. But after this, it does not mean that the war was over. The enemy's retreat represents the disappearance of resistance, and subsequently, Everta will have to carry out a series of tasks such as occupation, rectification, corpse treatment, battlefield cleaning, post-war reconstruction, etc.
At the end of May, it was the time when the weather was hot, and the corpses on the battlefield rotted very quickly. The poisoned infantry soldiers who were poisoned by their companions were stripped of their armor and weapons, and most of them were thrown naked on the battlefield. In this scenario, it was not too much to use the four words "corpses all over the field". After the death of Pope Daize, the army without a leader completely collapsed. However, these exiled soldiers were a threat to the entire area. Roddy had asked the "Rose Cross" troops who had been preparing for many days to come forward to encircle and suppress the surrounding areas to ensure the safety of other towns and villages.
Everta's own troops were slowly heading towards Enrique the next day.
This time, the head was the huge arcane puppet. The compacted road allowed the subsequent artillery car to follow along, and the journey of less than two kilometers was less than two hours for the four arcane puppets who were fully activated.
When the soldiers arrived at the city, there were only three or four heads looking around on the city wall - there was no city gate here, because most of the entire northern city wall collapsed in artillery fire, and all the soldiers could see were the ruins and countless corpses buried below.
The people who stayed in the city were surviving residents. Soderol let his troops stationed outside the city, and then waited for the arcane puppet to repair the road to the imperial city.
"Commander, don't you really need to directly surround the fleeing nobles?"
In the simple tents built outside the city, the staff were smiling with post-war statistics reports, but they are now more concerned about the whereabouts of Charles II, the former ruler of the country.
"The Falcon has been monitoring them. With Crohn and those mages escorted it, it doesn't make any sense to force it to chase it now."
Soderol made a mark on the plan that he had been flipping countless times: "The people brought by the fleet have begun to plan a new plan for port construction. Where can this monarch do anything?"
In fact, Charles II, who was on the way to escape, had no more thinking ability left in his mind.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial City is our last barrier. The magicians of the Dragon Tower gathered together. With the help of the magician, the weapons of Everta are no longer a threat!"
The face of oily sweat and dusty Earl Wall kept giving Charles II ideas.
"Oh, let's talk about it first."
The monarch of Karen Kingdom was haggard at the moment, and he was also covered in sweat on his horse. He looked up at the cloudless sky, and the figure of the "Falcon" fighter plane was hovering over the sky. They were used to the buzzing sound of the propeller and no longer regarded this thing as a threat.
What they feared was "albatross", but the latter never showed up.
After Queo left Enrique City, the barrier that protected them suddenly disappeared at some point. After climbing the city wall and seeing the final intact of the Iverst position, Crohn immediately joined forces with the remaining three magicians and six magicians to escort the nobles away from the southern gate.
Charles II did not give a few orders during this process. He even thought of hitting and dying on the Enrique wall, which would be more enjoyable than facing a situation where everything was lost.
Half of the remaining nobles expressed their willingness to stay and cut off the rear and buy time for Charles II's escape. Of course, Charles II did not know... These people directly chose to surrender after the Iversta Infantry Division drove over.
The people who escaped at this time can basically become the core layer of this kingdom. More than twelve nobles gathered a guard of seventy or eighty people, and accompanied Charles II and the magicians to escape from the southern wall to the imperial city. After running for a full day, they finally arrived at the village five kilometers away from the imperial city.
The villagers here didn't know what was going on at this time, and they were only surprised by such a group of aristocrats in a cozy and gorgeous outfit.
"Your Majesty, do you need a rest?"
Magister Crohn was also exhausted. Even though he could use spells to reduce the burden on the war horse, riding for more than ten hours in a row was a big test for his physical strength - even if he couldn't stand using spells to float in the middle, he would inevitably be tired and haggard at this moment.
"No more rest, just leave."
Looking at the city not far from his sight, the hungry Charles II decided to continue his journey and return to the city as soon as possible. The panic caused by artillery fire could be eliminated sooner. Although he didn't know what he could do after he went back, the city could still bring him a sense of security.
"Everyone work harder! You'll return to the imperial city soon."
Earl Wall was doing his best throughout the journey. He was still a little far from the core sequence before, but this war made him feel that he had found an opportunity.
After a brief adjustment, the team continued to accelerate towards the Imperial City. It took half an hour to walk a distance of five kilometers. However, looking at the quiet city walls and closed gates, Charles II always felt an inexplicable depression.
"Who, who?"
The soldier on the city wall was not tall, and his loose clothes could not cover his thin body. Even his voice seemed weak.
The Earl of Wall below immediately moved out of Charles II's name and asked to open the door. The soldier was startled and said quickly: "Okay!"
A "crunch" sounded, the suspension bridge of the Imperial City moat was lowered, and after the wide city gate opened, the deserted streets were very different from what they looked like when they left. Magister Crohn frowned and said, "No, there should be magicians on the city wall."
But he and Strange and others behind him were just suspicious, but did not think about the possibility of the city's loss. The long-distance raid had exhausted these mages who had not experienced the war. Their lips were chapped, and at this moment they just wanted to find a place to drink water and rest. Seeing the city gate open, Charles II finally breathed a long sigh. Even though his butt and thighs were hurting severely, he tried his best to hold back and quickly led more than a dozen nobles into the city first.
"Where are people? Hey! Where are you standing there? Where are the city defense forces? Where are the mages on duty?"
Earl Wall also noticed something strange, but the thin soldier in front of him shook his head and retreated: "Sir, I don't know anything..."
"What are you running? Come and talk!"
Wall wanted to say something, but the soldier turned around and ran away, causing the nobles who had just entered the city to look at each other.
The next moment, a whistle arrow suddenly shot into the air, and a large number of figures suddenly surged around the sharp whistle. The collision of metal armor was a sound. When he realized that these soldiers were wearing all-metal armor and holding charging spears, Charles II's face was as pale as paper: "Who are you?"
This is actually nonsense, because everyone saw the wolf head mark on the soldiers' armor.
But even if they were surrounded, they could hardly imagine why the enemy would appear here...
"Bang!"
The sound of chains drawn by the closed city gates and suspension bridges made these people realize that they had no way out, but the soldiers around them did not rush to attack. They just formed a semicircle and kept a distance of about 30 meters away. For Charles II and others who were riding horses, the incomplete encirclement of this infantry was really vulnerable - but what made them dare not move were the crystal cannons set up on the streets not far away...
For those who have experienced the power of artillery fire, when pointed at this weapon at close range, they even breathe carefully.
Fortunately, Crohn and other mages immediately began to release the shield barrier, and light curtains flashed by. As soon as Charles II had the courage to continue speaking, he saw the air in front of him suddenly twisting, and a strange-shaped black tower suddenly appeared on the wide street.
They were all familiar with the image of the Hercino Tower, but this scene appeared in front of them really made Charles II unable to accept it. He drew out his sword and murmured: "Fake... all fake... this must be an illusion created by magic - Crohn! Break all this quickly!"
However, Crohn did not move. He had observed the magic tower in front of him at close range when he was Elson. At this moment, he could certainly understand what this means...
Looking back at Strange and the other mages, he happily chose to turn over and get off the horse, waved his hand to remove the original shield and barrier: "Your Majesty, forgive us for being incompetent. This demon tower cannot even deal with the dragon clan..."
"Impossible! All this is fake!"
Charles II drew out his sword. Although he tried to make his voice louder, on the quiet battlefield, these harsh words on the inside highlighted his timidity.
He looked forward to the nobles behind him to respond, and then everyone launched a charge together - even if they die, they would die heroically. But Charles II himself did not have the courage to charge, and the nobles around him also lost the determination to "slay the death of the fish".
Being aimed at eight crystal cannons and pressed in front of them with a magic tower, you can't escape. What other choices can you have besides surrender?
At this time, the door at the bottom of the Magic Tower opened, and Roddy and Sally in formal clothes stepped down. The soldiers surrounded in front slowly separated to both sides. Sally walked forward, and Roddy followed behind. When the Duke stood still, Roddy still did not stand in a position parallel to her.
This is a conversation between the royal family and the Russiflon family. Although he was responsible for the entire war, the grudges were still left to Sally.
