Henry could not be blamed for losing his composure. The scene in front of him was simply too shocking!
The arrows that the archers had shot out had clearly landed in Sila City, but in an instant, those arrows had all returned to where they came from and landed in the midst of their own troops!
The dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, and the Gris army, who were caught off guard, suffered greatly as they screamed in pain.
Just this round of arrow rain alone had injured hundreds of people, and dozens of unlucky ones had their heads pierced by arrows, dying on the spot.
Cheers rang out from the Sila city walls, and Henry's expression was abnormally ugly.
"What's going on?! Didn't they say that there were no mages in Sila City?! "
This kind of ability to turn the clouds and rain with a flip of the hand was only possible for mages of Silver rank and above or Divine rank and above! Even if it was an extraordinary Divine warrior, it was impossible to reverse all the arrows in an instant!
"General, this, we don't know what's going on either!"
The adjutant next to him was on the verge of breaking down. "There isn't a single mage in the entire Sila Duchy, and the City of Silver did not stand up for Sila Duchy. Their mages can't possibly run over from Lothamar to support Sila!"
"Then tell me what's going on?!"
Henry, who was filled with anger, wished he could chop this idiot up with a knife. "Are you telling me that those arrows were blown back by the wind?"
The adjutant was speechless.
"Hmph! So what if there are mages! "
Henry coldly stared at the city gates. "Pass down the order, the army will attack the city with me! We must break through the city gates within half an hour! "
"General?!"
"I will lead the charge!"
Henry drew his sword. "I'll hand over command to you. I'll directly charge into the city to find that mage. After killing him, I'll break through the gates from the inside!"
"Yes! General! "
The adjutant looked at Henry with a fanatical expression. In the Gris Kingdom, there was no such thing as a general not taking risks. How high one could climb depended on one's own strength.
The more ruthless and the more willing one was to charge and break through enemy lines, the more favored one would be by Stanley, and Henry was undoubtedly one of them.
After making the arrangements, Henry directly charged into the sky, twisted his body, and shot towards Sila City like an arrow!
Seeing this, the adjutant immediately began to give orders to attack!
"Where are the supervisors!"
"Here!"
"Escort the Sila captives to the frontlines! Those who flee from battle will be beheaded! "
"Yes!"
"All soldiers, listen up! We'll split into three groups. The middle group will suppress the city gates, while the flanks will spread out in formation and attack from both sides! "
"Understood!"
"Archers, cover us from afar. Target the enemy soldiers on the city walls!"
"Understood!"
As the orders were passed down one by one, the Great Army of the Grays immediately got into action. After eliminating the three thousand men that were sent to the other villages to loot, the remaining seven thousand men immediately split into three armies and began to attack Xila. At the same time, the other three thousand soldiers also began to bring the looted resources back to support the Grays after receiving the emergency notice.
"What a pity!"
The adjutant sighed in his heart. They did not bring any wild Mages with them on this mission. Those wild Mages were all busy with King Stanley's plan, so they could not leave.
If they had the help of the wild Mages this time, the siege would have been too simple. A Stone to Mud spell would have been able to tear a big hole in the city wall.
"Not good! They're going to attack! "
The guards on the city walls noticed the movements of the Grays army and were shocked. "Blow the horn!"
Wooo —
The horn of defense sounded, and the guards of Sila immediately took action. The archers nocked their bows and shot out arrows like rain!
Although they had the advantage of using bows and arrows to defend from high ground, the Grays soldiers were prepared this time, so the rain of arrows did not have much effect. Most of the arrows were blocked by the raised tower shields.
"Fools."
Henry's adjutant sneered. The tower shields of the Grays were made of ironwood and fine iron, so they were very heavy. Ordinary soldiers could not even lift them. This tower shield could only be pierced by strong bows made of magical beast tendons. The strength of the standard longbows in the hands of the Xila soldiers was not enough.
At this time, General Henry had already rushed up the city walls. The Xila guards had just surrounded him, but they were all killed by his sword, clearing out an empty area.
Henry sneered. "You overestimate yourselves!"
At this time, he was slightly stunned when he saw the "soldiers" on the city walls.
He originally thought that these soldiers were the men in the city recruited by Palmer. He did not expect that they were all dummies!
"Hmph, they think that by using these dummies, they can increase the pressure on us? What a joke! "
Henry, with a look of disdain, did not even bother to pay attention to the dummies. He looked around and found that the soldiers guarding the city walls were so scared that they did not dare to come forward. He sneered, ignored them, and rushed straight to the place where the magic power in the city gathered. If there was no accident, the magician guarding Xila City should be there.
Compared to these small soldiers, the magician was obviously more important.
As the saying goes, king against king, soldier against soldier. As the strongest general, Henry's priority now was to get rid of the magician. Otherwise, when the magician took time out from defense to attack, his soldiers would be in big trouble.
Getting rid of the magician would be as easy as taking something out of his pocket.
In the palace, Palmer was patting Tang En's horse with a face full of admiration.
"Tang En Majesty! Your move just now was really amazing! You actually reversed all the arrows! "
Palmer said with a face full of ecstasy. "Sure enough, with you here, it's like having thousands of soldiers and horses!"
"Don't flatter me. I just don't want to see those innocent civilians die in the fire of war."
Tang En waved his hand. Reversing the arrows was just a small trick that was not worth mentioning. Just as he was about to take out his mobile phone to ask for the location of the reinforcements, he sensed a special wave of power rapidly approaching here.
Tang En narrowed his eyes and looked out the window. A black shadow was quickly flying over Xila City, and its target was obviously him.
"A guest is coming."
As soon as Tang En's voice fell, the figure had already rushed to the balcony of the castle.
Henry narrowed his eyes and looked at Tang En. He felt that the young man looked a little familiar. "Palmer, you really did ask for help."
"Henry! It's really you! "
Palmer's face changed slightly, and he shouted sternly, "You dare to invade Xila? This time, I will definitely not forgive you!"
"Just by you? Or by this … unknown Mr. Magician? "
Henry stroked the longsword in his hand calmly and looked at Palmer with a faint smile. "What do you think, if I kill you now, what will happen to Xila Duchy?"
With Tang En there, Palmer was not afraid of Henry at all. He said coldly, "Henry, for many years, you have been wreaking havoc in my Xila Duchy, killing countless people. Unfortunately, this time, your luck has run out."
"Haha, are you done? Then you can go die. "
Henry looked at Tang En, and the more he looked, the more he felt that this person was a little familiar. There was an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart.
At that moment, he no longer hesitated and directly stabbed at Palmer with a sword aura. Then, the sword changed direction and rushed directly at Tang En, intending to use a thunderous attack to get rid of this Magician who made him feel uneasy.
When the sword aura came, Palmer was scared out of his wits. "Your Majesty, save me!"
The next moment, Palmer was suddenly pulled to the back by a gentle force, avoiding the sword aura. At the same time, Henry had rushed in front of Tang En, the cold blade flashing with an ominous red light, ruthlessly stabbing at Tang En's heart!
Any warrior who had battle experience with a Magician knew that in order to defeat a Magician, the only way was to suppress the opponent before the Magician started chanting. So, Henry had already prepared for both sides, and while attacking, he was also ready to interrupt the Magician's chanting at any time.
Unfortunately, he was not facing a Magician in the conventional sense.
With a clang, the longsword that had accumulated a huge amount of blood energy slashed at Tang En, but it did not even pierce through Tang En's magic armor.
Damn it!
This is a strong person who is not inferior to me!
"Domain, open —"
Henry, who was pleasantly surprised, suddenly felt his scalp tighten. The moment he was about to open up his domain, several cold Spectral Blades silently streaked across his body …
At this time, Tang En turned to look at Palmer and asked, "You know him? Where does he get his confidence from? "
"This person is called Henry Cecil, the commander of the army outside!"
Palmer hurriedly said, "He's a strong person at the peak of the Grandmaster level! He has rich combat experience and is a very strong enemy. You must be careful of him — "
Palmer's eyes suddenly widened, and he was speechless.
Because Henry, who was frozen there, suddenly had traces of blood on his body. A gust of cold wind blew through the window, and with a numbing sound, the very strong Henry that Palmer said was very difficult to deal with was turned into a pile of minced meat.
Dead!
Henry Cecil, who had brought countless disasters to him every year, had actually died just like that!
This was simply too absurd!
— No! It should be said that Tang En Majesty was too strong!
"He's the commander?"
Tang En was stunned and a little speechless. The reinforcements had not yet arrived, and the commander had already been killed by him. If the enemy knew the news, they would probably flee directly. If that was the case, his men would have made a wasted trip.
Tang En rolled his eyes and said to Palmer, "This news can't be spread. At least, we have to disguise it and let those people think that I've been entangled with Henry and have no time to protect this city."
"I don't care, but there are too many people in the city …"
"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to them. They can't see the situation in the city through the city walls."
Since he had decided to get rid of this hidden danger, he could not be merciful. It was better for these soldiers to stay here forever.
Tang En took out his mobile phone. "Where are you?"
