Chapter 111 - , Tragic

He Chuan watched the soldiers under his command die one after another and even had to drag a strange beast along with them before they died.

He felt a great pain in his heart.

A feeling of powerlessness welled up in his heart.

But there was nothing he could do. There were too many strange beasts. He had to protect the magic crystal cannon first and had no time to help the soldiers who were in danger.

This was the choice he had to make.

“For Glory City, for the City Lord!”

A soldier’s chest was bitten through by the Cerberus, but there was no pain shown on his face.

Blood flowed out from his chest. He raised his enchanted spear and used all the strength in his body to stab it into its chest.

The Cerberus, who didn’t have time to react, had its throat pierced by the spear. It whimpered a few times and fell to the ground with the soldier.

Until the moment of death, the soldier still had a smile on his face.

That was because he killed another strange beast in the end, and Glory City’s victory had increased a bit.

It was unknown whether it was tears or blood, but it slid down from the corner of He Chuan’s eyes.

“Die!” He roared toward the sky, and the demonic knife in his hand slashed toward the head of the Griffin at the front.

Just as He Chuan was about to retract his saber, a chill suddenly came from the back of his head. A sense of danger enveloped his heart, and he broke out in a cold sweat!

Three feathers shot towards his back in a zigzag pattern!

So it was the leader of the Griffins who took the opportunity when He Chuan was not paying attention to launch a sneak attack from behind!

Spurt!

The pain that he imagined did not come.

A soldier did not care about his own safety, and just as the feathers were about to hit He Chuan, he used his body to block the attack.

“No!” He Chuan turned around and looked at the leader of the Griffins angrily. He wished that he could tear the other party into pieces!

“It is my greatest honor to die for the City Lord. Please lead… lead Glory City… to victory!” The soldier slowly closed his eyes and ultimately lost his breath.

“I promise you! I will lead Glory City to victory. You can leave in peace!” He Chuan adjusted his breathing. He could not let his anger get to his head.

He had almost lost his lost his calm just now.

If it were not for the soldiers who had risked their lives to save him, he would have died or been injured!

Whoosh!

The black saber light streaked across the sky. He Chuan poured his spiritual energy into the demonic Buddhist monk knife.

The huge knife shadow traversed a hundred meters in the sky, splitting the leader of the Griffins who was trying to escape into two!

“You want to escape? Have you asked my knife?” How could He Chuan let his enemy go? Even though the saber had consumed a lot of spiritual energy, he did not regret it.

He Chuan didn’t have time to rest. He continued to fly into the sky because there were so many strange beasts that he couldn’t kill them all.

The war was still going on. The number of deaths of both humans and strange beasts was continuously increasing.

The Earth Dragon Turtle pressed down a soldier and opened its bloody mouth to swallow him.

The soldier’s neck was severely mutilated, and his vital signs gradually disappeared.

Before he died, his longsword had pierced through the Earth Dragon Turtle’s eyes!

He Chuan could only kill more strange beasts to pay tribute to the dead soldier.

Because he wanted to lead Glory City to continue on, this was an opportunity that countless people had exchanged their life with.

He clenched the demonic knife in his hand even tighter, and his gaze became more and more determined.

At this moment, it was useless to blame himself. He couldn’t bring the dead back to life!

The knife in his hand slashed down, and blood splattered everywhere!

Another strange beast’s life was harvested.

He Chuan was like a machine that didn’t know fatigue, continuously harvesting the lives of strange beasts.

The more strange beasts he killed, the more his soldiers would avoid the fate of death.

The reality was always very cruel. No matter how strong He Chuan was, he was still a single person. The number of beasts he could kill was limited.

At this time, the next wave of strange beasts also began to attack. They stepped on the corpses of their companions and charged angrily toward Glory City.

The tall city walls were piled with the corpses of exotic beasts, becoming the stepping stones for the next wave of strange beasts to attack the city.

“Huft!” A soldier used his enchanted spear to throw the corpses of strange beasts to the side, breathing in the air that reeked of blood.

Then, a Cerberus pounced at him once more.

Its sharp claws glowed with a faint blue light!

The continuous battle made him physically and mentally exhausted. His arms seemed to weighted tons, making it extremely difficult for him to lift them up again.

He lowered his head and looked at the corpse of his companion beside him. The power of anger swept through his entire body in an instant!

The fatigue and pain disappeared. He didn’t know whether he would live or die after the spear was thrust out.

There was no difference between sitting and waiting for death and being a coward.

If he didn’t try, how would he know that he couldn’t do it!

Only by retreating could he have a chance of survival?

But what if he couldn’t retreat?

The City Lord was still slaughtering, and his comrades were fighting with all their might to prevent the strange beasts from breaking through the defense line!

“Die for me!” The soldier quickly thrust out his enchanted spear.

The Cereberus’s body was pierced through.

Everyone was fighting with all their might!

No matter how high the rank of the officer was, no matter how low the rank of the soldier was.

Everyone had only one goal at this moment, to protect Glory City.

The continuous drizzle fell at an unknown time.

However, it could not cover up the smell of blood.

When the civilians in the city heard the shouting outside, their eyes were filled with tears!

The soldiers were all heroes of Glory City. Without their sacrifice, Glory City would not be what it is now. Everyone was a good person.

Even if they died, they would not regret it!

Some people knelt on the ground, begging for the help of the gods. Some people kept repeating the names of the soldiers.

They were their children!

The soldiers had the same thought in their hearts. Behind them were their wives and children, old and young!

There was no retreat!

The beast tide was like a wave, and the soldiers were a school of unyielding fish.

The school of fish sought a place to survive in the waves. The waves could not destroy them!

The demonic knife in He Chchuan’s hand had been soaked in blood, and his forehead was covered in sweat!

The strange beasts continued to charge at the city walls, trying to break through this steel line of defense.

“Brothers! Victory is not far away. Everyone, follow me and continue to kill!” He chuan wiped the sweat off his forehead and took the lead to charge forward!

Hearing the City Lord’s shout, the soldiers advanced fearlessly!

One side would fall today!

Either Glory City would be destroyed, or they would push back this wave of mutated beasts!

Glory City, which was bathed in blood, became the focus of attention of all parties!

The Crown Prince sat in front of the magic mirror and watched the scene of the beast tide attacking.

“I used the Beast Soul Grass from two years ago on this beast tide. It can anger the nerves of the mutated beasts and make them even crazier! No matter how powerful He Chuan is, Glory City will not be able to withstand it!” The military advisor stood beside the Crown Prince, his tone full of confidence.

The crown prince was very satisfied with the tragic state of Glory City.

A city in exchange for a stable throne, no matter how one looked at it, it was very worth it!

He did not care about the lives of the commoners at all. As long as he could keep his position as the Crown Prince, sooner or later, he would be the one in charge of the Wu Kingdom!

“Haha, you did well this time! When I ascend to the throne, I will guarantee that you will become the Imperial Advisor!” The Crown Prince stroked his chin, enjoying the attack of the beast tide with interest.

The military advisor revealed a look of joy. He supported the Crown Prince for the sake of glory and wealth.

“His Majesty is already old and decrepit. The Wu Kingdom will belong to you sooner or later. However, to prevent any unforeseen changes, I have another suggestion. I don’t know if I should speak of it!” The military advisor said carefully.

“Speak!” The Crown Prince was clearly in a good mood. He waved his hand and said

“There is a colorless and tasteless yellow swallow grass. It nourishes the body and is colorless and tasteless. Ordinary people eat it to strengthen their bodies. However, it is a life-threatening allure for those who are plagued by diseases,” The military advisor whispered into the Crown Prince’s ear.

It was the same when one could not receive nourishment.

If the tonic was used properly, it could become a poison!

The Crown Prince’s face was as dark as water. In the end, he said sternly, “Find a death warrior to do it. Remember to erase all traces.”
