He was no longer a hero, but he seemed to have forgotten that.
The king's seat was empty. Zuo Chen and several generals were still in the command room. For them, this was a risk.
"What's our current situation, General Xia Xuan?"
General Xia Xuan was a newcomer and Xia Long's younger brother, but he was not valued by the king.
"We will go deep into the enemy's camp. If the enemy is as strong as His Highness said, we can indeed destroy them easily."
He did not dare to say it too clearly. Zuo Chen and the other senior generals understood his concerns.
"Are they like that? General? "
Zuo Chen continued to ask.
Xia Xuan looked troubled. His third army had been defeated by the evil spirits. When it came to understanding the enemy, no one here was better than him.
"No, they're not as simple as we think …"
He paused for a moment, as if his voice was stuck in his throat.
"Indeed, if they're as strong as we think, they can't break through our city's barrier, and they can't defeat our city guards in such a short time."
Ever since Dragon City was attacked by the mutated monsters, the Dragon Boat Empire issued a new decree. Every city had a special lightning response force. Once there was a special situation in the city, an army would be formed in the shortest time possible and the nearby cities would be notified for support. Under the rapid flight speed, an army of 20,000 people could be formed in 15 minutes for a counterattack.
The enemy could not destroy a city in 15 minutes. There was only one possible result, and that was that the lightning response force was defeated. Moreover, they could interfere with magic communication. When the city was attacked, the rest of the Dragon Boat Empire did not receive any relevant news. It was not until the first survivor was found the next morning that people found out that the city had fallen.
Most importantly, the flying scouts were nowhere to be found. Had they been defeated? Was it because they were too close to the ground and were ambushed? Perhaps someone had made a serious low-level mistake, but no one came back. This was very puzzling.
Obviously, the intelligence of these dead people was not as high as Xiang Long had said. They were intelligent individuals, or there was someone behind them controlling them.
At first, they suspected that it was the Luyas Empire, but when they thought about Prince Zeon's situation and the tragic state of the Luyas Empire, they naturally ruled out this possibility.
Later, the prince suspected that it was Graham who had planned all this. But what was the truth? Was he really so capable? Graham was the only one who knew everything.
"Master Zuo, we should stop His Highness from entering the danger zone. Now that Graham has defected, we can no longer produce spaceships normally. At this moment, these spaceships are our most precious fighting force. We shouldn't let them take the risk."
A bearded general said. What he said was very reasonable, but he didn't understand one thing.
The King had been carried away by the sweetness of victory. He thought that he was still a brave man with great power, a hero who could capture the leader of the enemy's army. However, after the battle with the Wusen Demon King, he was no longer the Soaring Dragon. He was now the King, someone who should have been sitting at the back.
He had lost his sight in his right eye, and the injuries on his body had greatly reduced his strength. In addition, during his time as a Hero, he had relied too much on Graham's weapon, causing him to neglect his martial arts. He was even weaker than when he had been a Hero.
"I will do my best in this matter, but everyone, don't have too much hope. It's best for everyone to prepare for the worst and deal with any situation at all times."
Zuo Chen said.
Hearing this, the generals nodded silently. They did not know if they would be able to return victorious.
…
The bonfire lit up the cold night. A small person less than a meter tall hugged firewood and diligently added firewood to the fire. Its skin was brown, and there was a cross-shaped scar on its head. Its hair was messy and long, making it look like a mini wild man.
The black dog was curled up into a ball and sleeping next to its master. Melly looked at the little monster from time to time, her needlework never stopping. Then, she bit off the thread.
"I'm done. The sewing is a little rough."
Melly stood up and picked up the animal skin coat.
"It's enough. Let her wear it."
Fina picked up the blonde woman who was tied up like a dumpling. Her resentful eyes seemed to be cursing the other party. If her mouth had not been sealed by Lilith's magic, she would have definitely scolded them.
Lilith, on the other hand, was sitting by the bonfire, polishing the ordinary-looking broken sword. She had been polishing it for a long time. Since the sky was not dark and the stars were out, her attention had been on the sword. She stared at it in a daze, entranced.
Melly did not know what was so special about the sword, and she did not dare to ask.
Fina had just untied the blonde woman when she suddenly broke free. Her fingers were like an eagle's claws as they clawed at Fina's eyes. However, Fina's reaction was faster. She grabbed the blonde woman's fingers and gently twisted them. The blonde woman's eyes widened in pain.
However, she was very quiet and did not make a sound.
Oh, right. She was under a spell and could not speak. Melly almost forgot about that.
"How can you be so different from Reina? You look so similar. Be good, I can't beat you. Help her put on her clothes. She's freezing to death. "
Looking at the trembling blonde woman, Melly was a little afraid of her. This person was different from ordinary people. She was a little crazy and cruel. Melly remembered the first thing she said to her. "What are you looking at! Do you believe that I'll gouge your eyes out? Stupid village girl. "
Then she ordered her to let her go. After messing around for a while, she suddenly closed her mouth and stopped talking.
However, she was still able to make muffled sounds. In the end, Lilith was annoyed. She directly inserted the staff into the blonde's mouth and silently recited a spell. Since then, the blonde woman could no longer make any sound.
Just as Fina was holding her down, Mei Li mustered up her courage and covered her with the clothes.
Her body was very white and very thin. Melly practically tied the clothes to her body.
"Done."
She kept struggling, and the process made Melly feel a little tired.
"She seems to have something to say, Lilith."
Fina stood up from the blonde woman's body. The latter no longer struggled, as if she was exhausted.
Lilith's gaze moved away from the sword. She slowly picked up the staff and pointed it at the blonde woman.
"Quick, kill these three bitches for me!"
However, the blonde woman immediately shouted at the little monster, although her voice sounded weak.
The little monster raised its head and looked at her with its empty eyes. It seemed that it could not understand her.
"It's useless. I've cast a spell on it. It listens to me now."
Lilith said coldly.
The blonde woman gritted her teeth. At this time, Fina was standing in front of her, looking down at her with a smile. She said to her, "I have a few questions for you. If you don't want to suffer, you'd better answer me obediently …"
