Chapter 18 Breaking through the siege

"Level 2 fire elemental magic, double fireball."

Two watermelon-sized fireballs flew out in succession, burning a Ouyun official soldier who rushed over to him into ashes, but Richard did not feel any joy. Bob, who was dressed in armor, suddenly rushed out from the crowd, grabbed Richard's outstretched hand, and shouted loudly: "Go, go."

Bob climbed onto the horse, and the blood on his body quickly soaked Richard's wizard robe. The warm blood soaked with Richard's sweat, making Richard feel extremely uncomfortable.

Richard didn't care about his bloodstained robe and quickly whipped his horse, while Bob spat a mouthful of bloody saliva at the Ouyun people behind him.

Behind him, the shadows of the trees were looming, and Ou Yun soldiers riding on wild boars kept rushing out of the woods. Several priests were singing loudly, singing war songs to bless the Ou Yun soldiers with courage.

In fact, they are not lacking in courage now. What courage is needed to chase a group of fleeing invaders? It’s just that the wild boars cannot keep up with the speed of the war horses.

A week had passed since the group of more than 400 Ouyun people were dealt with. The three teams began to encounter non-professional Ouyun soldiers. At first, everyone just kept killing and gaining military merit, but gradually all the team members began to realize that something was wrong.

Both the number and frequency of Ou Yun soldiers' appearances were too frequent. The official riders had exhausted their fighting spirit and their combat effectiveness began to decline greatly, but the Ou Yun soldiers did not give them any time to rest.

The divine power sensor was also unable to help Richard predict, because the professional Ouyun soldiers did not appear within the range of five kilometers. The three teams could only keep fleeing under the pursuit and blockade of the Ouyun soldiers.

Until today, thousands of Ouyun soldiers finally surrounded the three teams, and in Richard's divine power sensor, Ouyun professionals continued to appear within a range of five kilometers.

After holding on for a while, Richard showed his strength as a second-level wizard and chose to cover the rear with Bob. George, who had the charge fighting skill and enchanted equipment, was the best candidate to lead the team to break through.

The warhorse ran not far when it encountered a team that was breaking out. Richard urged the horse to catch up, and a knight under Bob's command quickly took over the seriously injured Bob.

But at this moment, the trucks had been abandoned and Bob could only half lie on the horse's back. The knight helped Bob take off his shattered armor, revealing Bob's body with seven or eight injuries. The knight could only treat Bob's wounds bit by bit.

Richard took a look at the team that broke out. There were his own men, Hansen and four other knights. After a week-long battle, the other two ordinary knights were promoted to official knights, and the ordinary knights from the other two teams were all killed.

Hansen handed Richard the magic-sealing box. Richard took out a bottle of potion from it and drank it. Although the potion bottle contained only ordinary water, this saved Richard from having to explain to other knights why his magic power recovered so quickly.

In addition to his talent for multitasking that allowed Richard to maintain a meditative state, in another dimension, a nearly eaten-out Qingxin grass also helped Richard a lot.

Richard took out the divine power sensor and sensed it again, then said, "They still have forty-two professionals. I guess the Ouyun people already know about the existence of the divine power sensor, so they can control the timing of the encirclement so accurately."

The gauze on George's left leg was stained red with blood, and his once brilliant golden hair was now limply stuck to his cheek. "There are so many Oyun natives in such a small area in the west. I estimate that there are at least 100,000 natives in the vicinity of the entire Green Flag Camp."

Hearing this, Bob, who was groaning in pain from the treatment of his wound, cursed: "It must be those idiots in the Red Flag Camp who let so many natives in. Now it's not just us, I guess the entire Green Flag Camp can't be saved."

Richard was a little confused. He had just arrived at the Green Flag Camp and he only knew that the Green Flag Camp provided logistical support for the Red Flag Camp. By sending people over, wasn't the Red Flag Camp simply handing over its own supplies to the enemy?

Richard expressed his doubts.

George ignored Bob's scolding and explained to Richard, "The Gardlanmon Mountain where the Red Flag Camp is stationed has always been the focus of contention between the two sides, but neither the Red Flag Camp nor the natives on the opposite side have the military strength to win."

"But as long as the Green Flag Camp builds a military road leading to Mount Gadlanmon, the military will send out the kingdom's true elite division, the Bloody Knights, and it will be effortless to capture Mount Gadlanmon."

Richard was even more puzzled. "If the Bloody Knights can easily eliminate the Ouyun people, why are they still stationed in the rear?"

Bob coughed and spat out another mouthful of blood foam. "Do you think the plane war is that simple? With only low-level knights like us, the kingdom does not send out those bloody knights because it is afraid of being attacked by the high-level combat forces of the natives. Vice versa, the high-level combat forces of the natives dare not show up casually. Otherwise, the great Majesty Jeff will just cut off the head of the great god Ou Yun and we will win, right?"

George also cursed fiercely: "Great God Ou Yun? That cowardly evil god will definitely not leave his kingdom of God."

Richard remained silent. Although he already knew that he was cannon fodder, he now realized more deeply that the entire Seven-Colored Flag Legion was nothing more than the vanguard of the Bloody Knights Legion.

He had only known those knights under his command for more than ten days, and sometimes he had to recall their names to match them up. But now they were already sleeping in another dimension. Richard's team had killed many Ouyun people in these days. He didn't know how the Ouyun people would treat their corpses.

I don’t know if Jeff’s Kingdom has the custom of returning to one’s roots. A trace of sadness flashed through Richard’s heart.

But thinking of the remaining people, Richard pulled himself together and said, "We are not safe yet, what should we do next?"

George suggested, "Perhaps we can break out. The situation won't be much better if we go back to the Green Flag Camp now. The Red Flag Army will definitely send troops back to rescue us. Perhaps we can join them."

Bob seemed to be exhausted from losing too much blood. He whispered, "How do you know we can break out? What if the Red Flag Army attacks Mount Gadlanmon for military merit and doesn't care about our lives?"

Bob smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe we will be caught up by the natives in a while, and then we will all be thrown into a pot and boiled into soup. My meat will probably be bitter and sour, but your noble meat will definitely not be missed by those natives. It is sweet and delicious."
