* Rumble … *
When Hayashi River and the rest finished disguising themselves and came out from a secret passage not far from the Northern Sea Museum, a shocking explosion sounded from the east side of the inner city.
Flames soared into the sky, illuminating the night sky as if it were daytime. Pillars of fire shot into the sky like fire dragons, piercing through several airships in the air.
Seeing the smoky airships plummet, Bayern, Old Aidan, and the rest were speechless. This sudden incident was obviously much bigger than the one they had caused a few days ago.
"How many troops have come …" Bayern was speechless.
Bayoun was speechless. Based on his battle experience, the troops that launched this attack were at least a thousand elites.
The elite troops mentioned here were not ordinary elites, but the trump card troops of a centaur army.
"Don't worry about how many troops have come, split up! You are in charge of rescuing the Third Prince. "
As Hayashi River spoke, he called out to Bayern, and his companions split up into three groups.
Old Aidan, Hayuya, and Fowler led a team of mercenaries to rescue the Third Prince, Munthe.
Of course, this was just a pretense to lock onto the location of Munthe and Shi Di. As for the lives of the latter two, Hayashi River was not too concerned.
Bayern and the members of Madam Butterfly's intelligence team were in charge of investigating in the dark. If necessary, they could naturally make a move and cause trouble.
As for Hayashi River's side, he was with Six Hands' team. Their goal was simple, their target was Shi Di.
* Whoosh! *
Lin Chuan was dressed in a black cloak. Together with Six Hands, they flashed and disappeared into the night.
Meanwhile.
In the east side of the inner city, the battle had reached its peak. Countless armor-piercing bombs covered the entire street, and the sight of it made one's scalp go numb.
Even though the people of the Northern Lands were tough and unyielding, such a terrifying battle was still rare.
The street had been completely destroyed, and the royal convoy had become a pile of wreckage. The ground was littered with the corpses of the royal guards, all of them beaten up like rags.
On the ground, there were also the corpses of the attackers. There were not many of them, but their true appearances could be seen.
They were dwarves with limestone patterns on their skin!
Limestone Dwarves, a branch of the Black Dwarves!?
In a small alley at the corner of the street, a group of royal guards was protecting Munter. Shi Di was hiding inside, looking at the dark dwarf whose helmet was cracked, revealing his limestone patterned skin. Munter's face was ashen.
"Black dwarves?! Damn dark dwarves, you dare to attack me in the middle of the street?! "Muntle gritted his teeth so hard that they almost broke.
On the other side, Shi Di clutched his arm. His face was ferocious and filled with killing intent. He was even angrier than Munte.
This was Shihai Mountain City, the Shi family's base camp. It was equivalent to being attacked in front of the Shi family's front door. This was a direct slap to the Shi family's face.
"The Dark Dwarves are getting more and more rampant in the North!?" Shi Di growled in a low voice.
The dark dwarves were enemies with most of the powers in the Northern Reaches. The evil dwarves of the legends had actually acted in much the same way as in the legends.
In the old days of the Northern Reaches, the dark dwarves were a large and tyrannical race. They tried in vain to exterminate all the races in the North, leaving only the dark dwarves and the fire gnome race.
Their actions incurred the wrath of the other powers in the Northern Reaches, who joined forces to exterminate the Dark Dwarves.
However, the dark dwarves did not go completely extinct. After nearly a thousand years, they had grown stronger in the last hundred years.
In the last ten years, the dark dwarves had clashed with the Northern royalty, the Shi family, and other powers in various parts of the Northern Reaches.
However, these conflicts were all small-scale. Who would have thought that the dark dwarves would choose to attack the royal family in the middle of the streets of Shihai Mountain City?
If they succeeded, not just the Northern Reaches, but the entire Sea-Ao Empire would be shaken …
Bang, bang, bang …
A series of explosions came closer and closer. Munter and Shi Di's expressions changed. If they were surrounded by the dark dwarves, they would be in grave danger.
However, rushing out like this was also very dangerous!
"I shouldn't have kept advising them on this trip. I should have brought the Royal Guards …" Munter muttered, his expression changing.
"Your Highness Munter, don't worry. We've dragged this on for so long. The garrison and city guards should be here by now. When the time comes, we'll be outnumbered and safe. "
Shi Di consoled. Although he said so, he had no confidence in his heart. He had seen the dark dwarves' combat prowess with his own eyes. They were not inferior to the Shi family's suicide squad, the Royal Guards, and the centaur army's trump card.
The garrison and city guards' combat prowess paled in comparison to the dark dwarves.
Even if these reinforcements arrived, they might not be sheep in a tiger's den, but it was hard to say if they would be able to save them.
Just then …
An ear-piercing sound of an engine was heard, followed by a deafening explosion.
Shi Di's ears twitched. He could tell that this was his family's suicide squad, coming to help.
"Your Highness Munter, the Shi family's reinforcements have arrived. Don't worry!" Shi Di smiled.
Hearing this, Third Prince Munter's panicked expression disappeared, replaced with his usual warm smile and regained his royal demeanor.
Shi Di's reinforcements were that mysterious and powerful troop?
Comparable to Royal City's Royal Guards, perhaps even more terrifying in certain aspects …
A series of thoughts flashed through Munter's mind. The Northern royal family had always been curious about this mysterious Shi family troop, but also extremely wary of them.
But now that the Shi family's reinforcements had arrived, it was reassuring.
Boom …
On the opposite side, the middle floor of a building exploded with tongues of flame. The entire floor was blasted apart, and hundreds of figures leapt out of the windows.
The building was twenty stories high, and the ten stories were at least thirty meters from the ground. These figures fell like meteors, but they left craters in the ground, unharmed.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
One after another, figures rushed out of the crater and headed in another direction. They rode on huge specially made hover cars and boldly rushed over.
Woo woo woo …
Strange whistling sounds rang out as these figures faced the sky and roared. Their voices shook the night sky. As they ran, they took out round rods from their backs and twisted them. The two ends of the rods spouted out blazing flames that were dazzling in the dark night.
Munter and Shi Di's expressions changed when they saw the color of the flames.
This was the color of the flame that erupted from high-quality energy crystals that were being burned through a special device.
The flames were beautiful, but also extremely dangerous.
Combusting energy crystals were extremely unstable to begin with, a dangerous item that was even more explosive than a high explosive bomb.
"Oh my god …" Munter exclaimed.
"No …" Shi Di's face paled as he cried out.
Rumble …
The round rods spiraled about, and the two ends of the rods spat out flames that carried arcs of light as they shot into the gigantic hovering cars. Then, the cars suddenly exploded, and balls of blazing flames rushed up.
The ground shook violently. The destructive power of this explosion was too strong. The figures that rushed over were swallowed up by the shockwaves of the explosion, turning to ash.
Such a method of mutual destruction shocked the surrounding people to the point that their scalps went numb, and all of them had the intention to retreat.
"Lunatics, they really are a bunch of lunatics!?"
In the distance, on top of a tall building, a group of figures stood. The leader was a tall man, wearing a heart energy equipment with a giant wolf pattern. He was watching the battle in the east with interest.
Behind the tall man, the rest of the people were wearing the same heart energy equipment. Sealed heart energy sensing helmets, shaped like a wolf's head, emitting a biting cold murderous aura.
"Third prince, that grandson Shi Di is really unlucky. He just arrived at Shihai Mountain City, and he was attacked by the dark dwarf army. What bad luck!"
The tall man chuckled. He held a bottle of wine in his hand, drinking as he laughed.
Behind him, a subordinate said in a low voice, "Boss, you are drinking on a mission again. If Lord Wolf finds out …"
Bang!
Before he finished, the tall man waved the bottle, and the wine splashed on the subordinate's head.
"If Lord Wolf finds out, I will say that you drank it. If anyone dares to say it, I will teach him a lesson!" The tall man shouted.
The rest of the subordinates looked at each other, secretly shaking their heads. Coming out to carry out a mission with the boss was not a pleasant experience.
"Boss, it's time to move. Our goal this time is to capture Shi Di alive and bring him back. Don't get killed by the dark dwarf army … "another subordinate said.
"Of course, we definitely have to move. However, I want to enjoy such a beautiful battle scene for a while longer. Then, I will throw myself into it and fight with these guys to my heart's content!"
The tall man opened his arms and took a deep breath, feeling the smell of gunpowder in the city.
Behind him, the wolf soldiers from Limestone Ridge all shook their heads. Every time their boss had such a reaction, it meant that he was excited. It seemed that they would have to fight a big battle tonight before they could leave.
However, facing such a battle, the wolf soldiers of Limestone Ridge were not afraid at all. For them, fighting was the meaning of survival.
"Charge!"
The tall man waved his hand and was already the first to rush out. His figure glided through the air like a night bird streaking across the night sky.
Behind him, figures flew out one after another. Each of them was extremely agile, and the strength they displayed was at least at the peak of Realm Four.
If Garrison Chief Rita knew about such an elite troop, she would have probably fainted by now.
The Dark Dwarf Legion and the Limestone Ridge Wolf Soldiers, these two elite troops that were comparable to any trump card division on the continent, appeared at the same time in Shi Haishan City and directly blew up the city, it was possible that they would do it.
Bang, bang, bang …
The next moment, in the east district of the inner city, the already devastated streets were once again blown up.
With the tall man as the leader, every wolf soldier held a long sword and held a light shield in one hand. They descended from the sky and charged into the battle, tangling with the dark dwarf army and the Shi family's kamikaze troops.
Around the streets, buildings were blown up and cut open. The shocking destructive power made the eyes of the guards of Shi Haishan City, who were monitoring remotely, roll over and want to faint.
The battle between the three ace troops actually happened in Shi Haishan City. This situation was a nightmare for the city's higher-ups.
Right now, Shi Haishan City was like a naked woman, a certain part of her body ravaged. There was no way she could resist.
Witnessing this scene, Munte and Shi Di, who were hiding in an alley near the center of the battlefield, looked extremely grim.
They no longer dared to go out. In the face of such a chaotic battle, if they were careless and got hit by stray bullets, they wouldn't even know how they died.
"Mr. Shi Di, can we really escape safely …" Munte asked Shi Di, his face pale.
"Hold on a little longer. The family should have reinforcements coming."
Shi Di said confidently, but his voice was trembling. He was confident in the Shi family's strength.
But what if the family's reinforcements came too late? They were like lambs to the dark dwarf army and the Limestone Ridge wolf soldiers. One bite was enough to kill them.
Suddenly, the wall behind them silently dissolved. A group of people walked out, led by Fowler.
"This dissolving device is really useful!"
"Of course, it's Mr. Chuan's latest invention."
"It's said that the White Dwarf Kingdom asked Mr. Chuan not to sell it to foreign organizations."
Fowler, Old Aidan, and Hayuya spoke as they stepped on their floating discs, flying towards the dumbfounded Munte and the others.
"You are … Mr. Fowler …"
Munte's eyes widened. Of course he recognized Fowler, Old Aidan, and the others. His outstanding memory was one of his strengths.
Moreover, they were people around Hayashi River. Munte remembered them clearly.
But meeting Fowler and the others in a place like this was an indescribable surprise.
"Your Highness, Mr. Chuan heard that there's a riot here, so he sent us here to see if there's anything we can do to help."
"I didn't expect to meet Your Highness Munte here. If Your Highness doesn't mind, please leave this place first. This is the center of the battlefield, and it's a little dangerous."
"Supervising the frontlines is the style of the Northern royal family, but with your identity in Shihai City, if there's any accident, I'm afraid it'll be more troublesome …"
Fowler bowed slightly. His words made everyone in the room nod in agreement.
So this was Fowler?
They'd heard that he was a capable person from the administration of Faka Tower. Hearing about him was not as good as meeting him in person. What a capable person!
His Highness Munthe nodded repeatedly, appearing to be humbly accepting the advice, indicating that he was willing to accompany them.
In his heart, his evaluation of Fowler skyrocketed. Fowler was the first person Munte had ever seen in his life to be able to speak of escaping and the safety of Shi Haishan City in such a natural manner.
"Then let's leave …" Munte nodded.
Fowler waved his hand, and one of his attendants took out a spare floating disc. Munte and the others jumped on, activated the disc, and flew away.
Not far away, in the shadows of an alleyway, Hayashi River and Six Hands seemed to have melded into the darkness, their eyes closed as they silently sensed Munte's departure.
"Mr. Chuan. Didn't you tell me to lure the dark dwarves here and kill Shi Di with a borrowed knife? That should've been enough? "Six Hands muttered.
"Then what if Shi Di doesn't have what I want on him? Where would I go to find another member of the Shi family? "Hayashi River countered.
Six Hands shook his head. How troublesome. Killing people was much more enjoyable.
Admittedly, Six Hands was cunning and ruthless, but it was mainly used against enemies. Scheming against opponents was something he rarely did. Just thinking about it gave him a headache.
"Then I'll inform our brothers to act with restraint. If we're not careful, we might chop that human Shi Di into pieces. That human's strength is very weak. He's only level five. He's really as weak as a chicken …" Liu Shou muttered in a low voice.
Hayashi River: "…"
He thought about his true strength. He was only level five. So in the eyes of this Shadow Tribe expert, level five was a unit of measurement.
