A week later, the unicorn Empire, the east bank of the Somme River, the city of Schrozko

"President Artoria, you can't hold on to the city one by one anymore... The guild can no longer withstand such consumption. Many members have dropped several levels in a row. If they continue like this..."

A man who looked over thirty years old and had a slightly fat figure and was wearing a robe with a low-level look, was constantly trying to persuade a blue and white knight armor, with a golden hair, with both hands, and his eyes firmly looking at the girl in the south. After hearing the man's words, the girl shook her head and said firmly:

"Churchill, I know you are the commander you value the most, but now we must not give up easily..."

In fact, Artoria also knew that the current situation was indeed as the man said. After experiencing a civil strife, the hearts of the guild were half dispersed... and the attack speed of [Fire and Sword] was so fast. Half a day after the first step of the "Western Plan" ended, the First Tank Assault Group, commanded by Guderian, one of the three famous generals of [Fire and Sword], immediately launched an offensive again after taking a break and replenishing the tank energy... At that time, [Sunrise and Sword] had just assembled good people on the border, but in just one hour, more than 100,000 players were defeated by a rapid assault legion composed of tanks and knights...

Just after Guderian's First Tank Assault Army defeated the front line of defense of [Sunrise and Sword], the right-wing legion of [Fire and Sword], commanded by Rommel, two of the three generals, also quickly bypassed the Gordon Fortress, which was heavily stationed in the Unicorn Empire, and directly penetrated to the rear of the defeated [Sunrise and Storm] guild. He immediately defeated the just organized [Sunrise and Sword] legion again, and formed a clamp attack with the First Legion, and advanced toward the capital of the Unicorn Empire, Dunmur.

In order to stabilize the defense line, the guild immediately transferred nearly 200,000 players back to the Somme defense line for defense. However, just when the legions left, the left-wing legion of the [Fire and Sword], which had been dormant, was the last of the three famous generals, Manstein, to immediately launch a sudden and rapid attack on the evacuated legion of [Sunrise and Sword].

Attack... Soon, the retreat of those [Sun Rising and Not Fading] legions turned into a chaotic retreat. After defeating the more than 20 players, the Third Tank Assault Army immediately rushed straight into the empire's hinterland along the southern border of the unicorn. Then, after capturing the southern important town of Casaris, the Third Tank Assault Army suddenly turned around and turned to the north, and the front of the army pointed directly to the rear support point of the Somme River defense line - Shirozko City...

The city of Schrozko is the fifth largest city of the unicorn empire. It is located on the east bank of the Somme River, the largest river in the empire. It is also the logistics supply distribution center of the entire empire's front line legion. Once it is broken, the entire Somme defense line will collapse in an instant. Once the defense line collapses, the empire will no longer have any defense to rely on. Although the empire will not be eliminated immediately, it will not be able to have any impact on the battle situation...

So in order to stabilize the defense line, the Emperor of the Unicorn Empire immediately sent a recent miscellaneous army to block the third tank assault army of the Empire, and also sent out a few fourth-level masters in the Empire. After a day and night of bloody battles, the miscellaneous army was wiped out, and the commander of the army was killed in battle... This game has been open for nearly a year, and the player's strength is no longer the level of a third-level or master in the early stages. Now basically every guild is based on third-level players as the main force, so the destruction of the NPC legion was not beyond anyone's expectations...

However, although the fight of the miscellaneous army did not completely block the Third Tank Assault Army of [Fire and Sword], it also won the time for mobilization for [Sunrise and Sword]. Just one hour after the miscellaneous army was destroyed, the president of [Sunrise and Sword] personally led tens of thousands of players to support Shirozko City to fight the aggressive Third Tank Assault Army... Many people wondered why Altolia only brought a few players to defend. After these textbook-style attacks, everyone already understood one thing-- Although the [Fire and Sword] Guild has not many legions, its strength is definitely first-class and powerful. The powerful tank assault army is even a strong army to attack cities and villages. With just a few players, how can [Sunrise and Sword] defend the city?

In fact, Artoria also has an unspeakable hidden secret. The Somme defense line is now very tight, and the follow-up troops of [Fire and Sword] are constantly coming. In the end, it is up to countless [Sunrise and Not Fall] players who do not count on life and death to resist, but there is no extra power to draw out... Most of the players she brings are newbies who have just joined the association. Only these players can withdraw from the defense line. After all, their strength is relatively poor and will not affect the stability of the entire defense line...

"Ah... But relying on these novices alone, how can we resist Manstein's Third Tank Assault Army? Not only are they twice as many as us, but their strength is even more...ah..."

"I know... does the church agree to support us?"

Hearing Artoria say the word "Church", Churchill frowned even deeper. He sighed helplessly, shook his head and said:

"Don't mention those charlatans... They don't care who will dominate the kingdom at all. As long as they can maintain their privileges and taxes, they will not have any objections if they are goblins to rule humans... And now they seem to have begun to discuss with the Griffon Principality how to fight against those "heretics". I think the unicorn empire should have been abandoned..."

"Don't they think about who saved the church in the past? If Queen Fareda hadn't expelled the demons, I think those guys in the church would have to praise Ogas now!"

"Oh...my president, do you think those charlatans will remember those?"

Suddenly, Artoria seemed to have thought of something, looked at the tallest church in the city, and said in confusion:

"Didn't the Church of Light gather its troops during this period? Who are their targets? The Duchy of Falcon or the Principal of Crow?"

"None of them... I think it should be the Duchy of Greyhound... Just now, Yu Zhengda Guangming abandoned the belief of the Dragon of Light, and those charlatans must jump..."

Artoria looked at the setting sun gradually sinking in the distance, thinking of the guild's decline in her hands, and suddenly felt in her heart that she was so lonely and helpless, not even a person to tell her. Perhaps after this battle... the guild she had been struggling for would disappear...

"Is there really no way to do it...Brother..."

Speaking a whisper like a dream, countless pictures flashed through Artoria's mind, and finally... those pictures were frozen into the image of a person, a person with two different colors of pupils, and always looking at her with sad eyes...

"How could I think of him... I don't know how he is now..."

"I'm fine now, President Artoria..."

Suddenly, an extremely real but smiling voice slowly rang behind President Artoria. She turned around suddenly and found that behind her a gray figure appeared spiraled from a red pupil. When she saw the man slowly lifting his smiling face, Artoria suddenly screamed in surprise...

"Safi... why are you... here?"

"Haha, why can't I come? I heard you seem to have encountered some trouble. Have you forgotten what I said last time? If you encounter any difficulties..."

The visitor was Yue Yulou, who had become the leader of "Mu", but he was not wearing that strange mask now, nor was he wearing that strange black cloak. His image seemed to be no different from the last time the two parted. The only difference was the faint blue light that appeared on him...

"No...I don't need your sympathy!"

For some reason, when Artoria saw Yue Yulou's concerned eyes, she felt annoyed inexplicably, because her intuition told her that those eyes were not actually staring at her, but at another woman, a woman who looked very similar to her...

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Bang bang...

Just as the two were silent, a rapid alarm sounded suddenly, and then objects flashing with steel glory appeared from the horizon south of the city, and a black cross was drawn on the steel monsters... The Third Tank Assault Army of [Fire and Sword] had already attacked, and the time for troops to come to the city was finally here.

"Now is not a time to think about it. Do you want this city to be destroyed?"

"But what's the use of you alone? This is a war! It's not a duel, and personal strength has no effect!"

After Artoria said this, she suddenly regretted it. She herself felt that she was saying too much. After all, Yue Yulou was here to assist her... But Yue Yulou seemed to not care about her words, but turned around and looked at the enemy that had become increasingly popular, and then said lightly:

"War... is just a boring game for mortals... Now I will let you see what power is irresistible to mortals..."

At this time, the city wall was full of players, but Yue Yulou took Artoria to an arrow tower facing the enemy, then took out a thick stone slab and began to chant in a low voice...

"The goddess of death... lives under the underground of the soul of the dead... The world of darkness and silence, eternal pain... The unsent-to-sentenced despair seeps into the breath... I pursue the final answer, the simple answer that everything can follow... Happiness, the happiness of survival, the absolute happiness of mankind..."

At this time, in the Third Tank Assault Army of [Fire and Sword], a middle-aged knight wearing silver armor, with an ordinary appearance, but with a strong military aura, was standing on a tank, staring at the city with a thick wall in front of him. He was the commander of the Third Tank Assault Army, Manstein, and now he is about to add a rich mark to his merits again...

"All army assaults! All tanks are ready to shell the city walls! Victory will definitely belong to us!"

Yes, this city almost has no defense in front of the powerful Third Tank Assault Army. Although it is said that the president of [Sun Rising and Not Falling] has led tens of thousands of players to garrison here, Manstein believes that this will only delay his legion for a few minutes... But he never expected that a man who would have caused him and his legion to encounter unprecedented failures is now aiming a terrifying spell at them...

"...but...the uncertain wing vibrations triggered these countless accidents...The thousand-year theory mocked the wisdom of human beings, as if they were close and separated... Even if they kept pursuing all these answers, the pain would not disappear...Humans began to kill each other...cry and cried towards death...ah...The goddess of order...the infinite compassion for the god of the underworld...the phantom of death...listen to my wishes...listen to people's lament..."

As Yue Yulou's chanting gradually became louder, some dark golden butterflies began to fly around him, making him, who was already full of mysterious aura, look even more mysterious...

"Shoot the arrow!"

"Spell! Free release!"

The enemy has entered the attack range, and the players on the city wall have begun to release their ranged skills, but it seems that the player's skills do not cause much damage to those tanks. After a wave of attacks, only a few tanks were destroyed...

"Open fire!"

The magic amplification cannon on the tank also ejected fires, and the casualties of players on the city wall suddenly increased sharply, and the third tank assault army also began to break into a place only 500 meters away from the city...

"...Your captured butterfly dead bones...even if you want to break through the tears...chasing the wings... Let's see... This is the one who struggles to fight for the rest of his life..."

"What is that!"

Soon, many players discovered that at some point, an arrow tower on the city wall had been completely covered by a strange dark golden butterfly, and even the players who were attacking [Fire and Sword] could see it... And with an extremely high-pitched chant, the doomsday of the Third Tank Assault Army came...

"...Look! The brave insects fly into the sky again... the disillusioned dream... towards the wreckage of the sunset... into dazzling light... spread their wings coolly... and fly! The butterfly of the Death Realm with the despair of the despair!"
