"One Million Dukes defeated!" In an instant, the entire continent was shocked by this news because it was too unexpected. Not to mention the fact that Li Huailin hadn't tasted defeat yet, just comparing the strategies of the Undead and the Human Race, the entire Second Legion of the Human Race had been dispatched, and their numbers were more than four times that of the Undead. With such an advantage, not to mention Li Huailin, even if they sent any general, they wouldn't lose. But unexpectedly, Li Huailin, who was known as the "God of War" of the continent, was actually defeated. This was really unacceptable.
"Defeated?" In the Human Race palace, Anthony was the first to receive the news of the defeat. He looked at the soldier who reported the news in shock. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, Your Highness. The report is here," the soldier said immediately. Of course, the report was written by Maccon. Of course, Maccon's report wouldn't say anything bad about Li Huailin. He basically took the blame himself.
"Is it true?" Anthony couldn't believe it after reading the report. "Huailin was injured?"
"Yes, Your Highness. The Marshal was injured by an arrow," the soldier said immediately.
"Is it serious?" Anthony asked quickly.
"This … I don't know. The news has been blocked. Even I haven't received any news yet. Didn't General Maccon's report say anything?" the soldier asked.
"It only says that Huailin was injured. It doesn't say whether it's serious or not," Anthony said anxiously. Anthony said anxiously, "This won't do. It seems like I have to go and see for myself …"
"Your Highness, please be careful." As soon as he finished speaking, Queen Marina suddenly stood up and said, "Your Highness, you can't go to the front line casually. It's a battlefield. It's too dangerous."
"I know, Your Highness, but I have to go and see Huailin is injured," Anthony said immediately.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. There's something fishy about this," Marina suddenly said.
"Oh?" Anthony was a little surprised. "What's fishy?"
"You can leave first," Marina said to the soldier who came to report.
"Yes, Your Highness. Your Highness, I will leave first," the soldier nodded immediately.
"Yes." Anthony nodded. Watching the soldiers retreat, he asked again, "What's wrong, Empress? What did you see?"
"Let me take a look at the battle report first," Marina said.
"Oh, Queen, please have a look." Anthony immediately handed the report to her.
"Oh? Ambushed? " Marina looked at the battle report and said in surprise, "It's really strange. He was ambushed and lost."
"What's strange about it? The other side has fewer people than us. If we want to win, we can only rely on tricks, "Anthony said.
"Yes, that's it. The other party has fewer people than us, so in a normal battle, we would definitely have the upper hand. According to normal thinking, as long as we send troops to fight the enemy, we would be able to win. However, the Duke of Aquitaine was ambushed. This kind of thing wouldn't happen to an ordinary general." "What's even more strange is that the person who was ambushed was the Duke of Aquitaine. He's famous for ambushing people, but this time, he actually lost to his famous skill. It's a little strange."
"People make mistakes, and so do horses," Anthony said. "That's how the battlefield is. If you're not careful, you might fall into someone else's trap."
"He won't …" Marina said. "I believe the other generals are careless, but the Duke of Aquitaine will never make such a mistake. This guy has too few weaknesses, and carelessness is definitely not one of them."
"Empress, you're very obedient to Huailin," Anthony said.
"I'm not obedient, but I value him," Marina said. "Alright, let's not talk about this for now. Let's get back to the original topic. The Duke of Aquitaine lost this battle too casually, so casually that I feel like … he lost on purpose."
"On purpose?" Anthony was stunned at first, then he suddenly laughed. "Hahaha, how is that possible? Why would he lose on purpose? You mean that Huailin faked his defeat? Why would he do that? We have the advantage now. We can win by attacking him head-on. Why would he fake his defeat? "
"That's the strangest thing to me. I can't find a reason for him to fake his defeat," Marina said with a frown. Marina frowned and said, "I'm 80% sure that the Duke of Aquitaine faked his defeat, but I can't figure out the reason for it."
"Don't think too highly of Huailin. It's a heavy burden for a general to win all the time. He lost this time, so he gained some and lost some," Anthony said.
"If he could lose so easily, I wouldn't value him so much," Marina said. "Anyway, what do you plan to do, Your Highness? I don't think you're going to punish him, right? Of course, you can't visit him in person either. "
"Forget it. The war isn't over yet. When he's done, he'll be able to atone for his mistakes. There's no need to worry about the reward," Anthony said. Anthony said. After all, Li Huailin's official position was already at the top. He could only reward them with money and food. These empires did not have many resources. Now that they had lost, it made things a lot easier for him. "But can't we really go and take a look?"
"No," Marina said firmly. "But I can help you with an idea."
"Oh? Please tell me, Your Highness, "Anthony said immediately.
"The Duke of Aquitaine was injured on duty. The royal family naturally has to visit him. Of course, you can't go in person, but we can send someone else," Marina said.
"Someone else? The royal family … Huh? " Anthony wanted to say that there was no one else in the royal family except him, but he realized that there was someone else. "You mean Princess Sulan?"
"Yes. Hasn't His Highness been trying to see if he can matchmake Sulan and the Duke of Aquitaine? I heard that although the Duke of Aquitaine already has a wife, it's only in name. There hasn't been a wedding ceremony yet … "Marina said.
"Yes, yes. I've been looking for an opportunity, but Huailin never shows up. This is a good opportunity," Anthony said. "Alright, the Queen is right. Let the Princess Sulan go to the front line to visit Huailin on my behalf."
Of course, at the same time, the various forces on the continent also received the battle report about the ambush. To be honest, no one could believe that Li Huailin had lost.
After repeated inquiries, everyone finally believed the authenticity of the battle report. The location of the undead's ambush was too strange. It was like opening a map. They asked themselves where they were, but they didn't expect the undead to set up an ambush here.
"What's going on with the undead this time? It's like God is helping them. How did they know to set up an ambush here?" the General of the Demons said.
"God is helping …" The King of the Demons, Baizera, was slightly stunned. He seemed to have thought of something. "Is there really God's help?"
"Is His Highness thinking about the meeting between the General of the Demons and a mysterious black-robed figure that you saw today?" Gordon asked.
"Yes." Baizera nodded. "The mysterious black-robed figure … just had to appear at this time. Moreover, the Demons received the news at night. This is really eye-catching."
"It's said that this person easily met with Lord Soudeis. Before entering the tent, Soudeis seemed to be very respectful to this person …" Gordon added.
"If it's Galthery, then there's no need to hide himself … Who is this mysterious person …" Bezerra muttered to himself. "Pay attention to this person. Report to me immediately if there's any new information."
"Yes, Your Highness," Gordon said. "But Your Highness, since we are allies of the undead, why don't we ask them directly? Perhaps we can contact this mysterious person directly and see what's going on with him."
"Ask them directly?" Baizera thought for a moment. "The undead didn't inform us about this. It seems like they don't want to make it public. Even if we ask them, they won't say anything. It's better not to expose that we already know about this. Let's wait until we find out the identity of this person."
"Yes, Your Highness," the others replied in unison.
What they didn't know was that the mysterious person they were talking about, Li Huailin, had reappeared in the Demons' main camp.
At this time, the Demons had just won the war. Due to the large number of corpses they had seized, the Demons took longer to return to the main camp than the humans. Li Huailin thought of a way to sneak out. This was also what Li Huailin had just thought of. Didn't he have the Divine Sword Guardian's Teleportation Badge? This thing could teleport him to Death Valley. Since the undead camp wasn't too far from Death Valley, Li Huailin could teleport out with the badge and then run to the undead camp. It was much closer than going from the city.
As this was his second time here, it was easy for Li Huailin to find Soudeis. Soudeis was waiting for the Undead Priest to rescue Liu Ke in the main tent.
"How is it? Is this guy still alive? "Li Huailin asked as he walked in.
"Your Highness." Soudeis immediately said, "The situation isn't very optimistic. Lord Liu Ke is in danger at any time. Your Highness, although Lord Liu Ke was a little reckless this time … "
"Reckless my ass. He was clearly courting death, okay? He almost messed up my plan. I thought I was going to win again, bastard, "Li Huailin said.
"Yes, Your Highness. However, seeing that Lord Liu Ke is loyal, please use the holy sword to save his life …" Liu Ke said.
"Eh? Holy sword? He has this ability? "Li Huailin was stunned.
