Li Huailin and the others had to search for more than ten minutes before they finally showed up. Fortunately, there were no idiotic teams that would rush at the sight of these hundreds of people. There didn't seem to be any big problems.
The party was clearly heading their way. Li Huailin and the others followed suit. As they approached, they discovered that the leader of the party was a handsome middle-aged NPC in his fifties. He was clad in shining silver armor, and his name was written in green. Beside him was the adjutant Maunt that Li Huailin and the others had seen before. Behind them were hundreds of main city soldiers armed to the teeth. They were well-equipped, and it was obvious that they were elite troops.
"I think he's the boss of that outpost, some Earl," Li Huailin recalled and said.
"Let's see what's going on," Red Moon said.
Earl De Varien led his soldiers in a hurry, but when he saw Li Huailin and the others, his eyes lit up and he stopped.
"Gentlemen, are you the brave warriors who defeated General De Krieg?"
Earl De Varien asked with a smile.
"Yes, we are," Red Moon, who stood at the front, replied.
"You've done a great job!" Earl De Varien praised. "Ever since I've been stationed here, I've never had a breakthrough like this. This is the best time to exterminate the Lizardmen!"
"We rushed here as soon as we received the news. Right now, the outer troops are fighting the Lizardmen's army. The Earl has decided to lead an elite squad to attack the enemy's headquarters," Maunt, the adjutant, said.
"Now is the time to exterminate the Lizardmen. Brave warriors, I hope you can help me drive these evil creatures out of Borene," Earl De Varien said.
"The quest has been upgraded," Misty Rain said softly.
Red Moon and the others looked at their quest window. Sure enough, the difficulty of the quest had increased from B to A, and the money and experience rewards had increased as well. Of course, Li Huailin couldn't see it. Fortunately, he hadn't accepted the quest. Otherwise, he would have lost even more EXP. Of course, Li Huailin wouldn't be able to see it. Fortunately, he didn't accept the quest. Otherwise, he would have lost even more points.
"Looks like it's a quest from the Abyss Instance Dungeon. I don't know what's going to happen from here onwards. Normal Instance Dungeons don't have this storyline at all. Everyone, adapt accordingly," Red Moon reminded.
"Count, look!" Adjutant Maunt suddenly pointed at the densely packed lizardmen on the steps and shouted, "The elite soldiers on the other side have also gathered at the entrance of the town center. They want to stop us."
"Looks like they've also received the news that we've sent out troops to attack."
Earl Edward frowned and thought for a moment. He suddenly pulled out his sword, raised it high, and shouted to the soldiers behind him, "I can see the fear of the enemy in your eyes. I can see the worry in your eyes. 'How can we fight against such a powerful monster …' Warriors of the Empire!! Let me answer you: We will fight them with the steel in our hands! We fight them with the courage in our hearts! Above all else, we are fighting for the glory of the Empire!!! "
"Fight! Fight! Fight! "The hundreds of soldiers behind him raised their swords high and shouted in unison.
"Warriors, follow behind me. This is the battle that will decide the outcome. For the glory of the Empire!"
Earl Edward said to Li Huailin and the others.
Nearly a hundred soldiers stood there, and of course, the lizardmen on the other side had already noticed them. However, they did not have a general who could lead them, because their general had already been killed by Li Huailin and the others before they could assemble. They did not know what to do now, and could only temporarily line up according to the training to prevent their formation from being disrupted.
"Warriors, follow me! Charge and break through the enemy lines! "
Earl Edward, of course, knew the weakness of the enemy's lack of a general. As expected, he took the initiative to attack, looking for an opportunity. Count Edward Arion took the lead and charged into the fray.
"Kill!" The group of soldiers behind him immediately roared, and then rushed toward the large group of lizardmen. With Earl Edward in the lead, each of them looked imposing.
"Even I have the urge to kill someone." Li Huailin's heart warmed when he saw the majestic battle auras. "Guild Leader, let's charge as well."
"The Abyss Instance Dungeon definitely won't let the NPCs help us with the battle. There must be something else. Otherwise, it wouldn't be an A-rank quest. However, let's go help them first." Scarlet Moon was as calm as ever as she analyzed the situation carefully.
The two sides were not very far from each other, and the 200-man team immediately met up. Although the lizardmen army had the geographical advantage of being on top of the stairs, the terrain was not as good as the terrain, and the terrain was not as good as the people. Without a general to lead them, it was simply fatal. As soon as the two sides clashed, the outcome of the battle was immediately apparent.
The humans maintained their formation and began to methodically attack the Lizardmen. However, the Lizardmen's formation immediately collapsed, and the paths between the soldiers were cut off. The humans were outnumbered, and the Lizardmen were devoured one after another.
Of course, Li Huailin and the others did not know how the main city's army worked. However, with the five of them working together, their efficiency was quite good. An Elite Lizardman Warrior with 4,500 HP died in less than 20 seconds, and the Elite Mage died even faster. The five of them killed the Lizardmen quite well.
After the battle lasted for about five minutes, the Lizardmen's defeat was apparent. Of the 100 or so Lizardmen, only 30 or so remained. Moreover, the Lizardmen seemed to have lost their will to fight, ready to flee at any moment.
"We're going to win! Soldiers, hold on!" Count Edward shouted from within the crowd. Although the humans had the upper hand, they had still suffered losses. The humans had killed more than 70 Lizardmen, and they had lost more than 20 of their own. Now, they needed the support of willpower. Count Edward saw this and immediately encouraged the morale of the Lizardmen.
The Lizardmen, on the other hand, did not have a general to encourage their morale. Seeing that the human soldiers were becoming more and more courageous, the Lizardmen began to flee. They could no longer hold on to the front of the stairs.
At this moment, a loud female voice suddenly rang out, "Let go of my children!"
Along with the shout, flames erupted from the center of the town. Several human soldiers standing at the front could not dodge in time and were directly hit by the flames. The temperature of the flames was extremely high, and a few of them were instantly burned into charcoal. Although the others were not directly hit, they were immediately injured and lost the ability to fight.
"Look, the change is coming." Red Moon and the others were standing further away, so no one was injured. However, they all looked at the entrance of the town center.
A person slowly walked out of the entrance of the town center. It looked like a human, wrapped in a purple-black robe. Her face could not be seen, but judging from her figure, it was a woman.
Li Huailin used Detect to take a look, but the opponent's level was too high. He could only see the name "Hejia Fugeweed". Everything else was a question mark.
"Hejia Fugeweed!" Earl De Varien took a step forward and yelled at Hejia, "It's you!"
"Destrien, it's been a while," Hejia said to Earl Destrien. "Are you trying to attack us when I'm not around? It's not that easy. I came back a long time ago. "
"You traitor of the human race!"
Earl De Varien said angrily, "Twenty years ago, I was too softhearted to let you go, but I've regretted it for the rest of my life. Today, I will not let you go. Today is the day of your death for you and your husband."
"It's too late for you to realize this. Today, you can no longer defeat me because I have inherited the power of the demigod Moragus. Come and see the power I have obtained!"
Hejia Fugeweed said as she opened her hands. Two balls of fire appeared in her hands. The flames were shining brightly, and it was obvious that the temperature was not low.
"Not good! I feel the power of the dragon's breath in her flames. Everyone, retreat! "Earl Edward's expression changed and immediately shouted.
"It's too late. Let me purify everything!" Hejia Fugeweed waved her hands, and a ball of fire immediately smashed toward the place with the most soldiers.
"Everyone, hurry up and get off the stage!" Red Moon immediately said. Although the fireball was not coming in their direction, she was afraid that she would be accidentally injured. It was better to stay away and watch the plot first.
With a "boom", the fireball exploded violently in the crowd. The flames immediately engulfed a dozen soldiers around it. It was extremely powerful, and anyone who was touched by it would either die or be injured.
"Children, you go to the periphery and help the other teams. I alone will be enough."
Hejia Fugeweed said to the remaining elite lizardmen behind her.
"Does this count as raising her own death flag?" Li Huailin said from the side. "Usually, people who want to get their bento will say something like this."
"She's still in the mood to joke around. She's probably the next boss. Look, most of the soldiers in the main city are dead, and her people have been sent away by the system. Now, only our team is left," Misty Rain said. "Such a powerful fireball can kill more than a dozen people. How are we supposed to fight it?"
"Let's wait and see," Red Moon said.
