Undead Wizard (7)

When Benqi reported his earnings, Alex, Inger and his group were standing in a circle around the terrain light image.

She sorted out her words and gestured to Alex who was looking over at her.

Alex nodded: "Go ahead."

"Two great wizards from Saranqin have returned and are currently fighting with Your Majesty."

Everyone had a solemn look on their face.

"I didn't expect it to be so soon." Inger frowned and said to Alex, "Am I going this time too?"

Alex shook his head: "The situation here is still unclear, it would be better if you stay here to deal with it."

And he felt more at ease with Inger staying here.

Inger asked Benqi, "Is your Majesty injured?"

Benqi said quickly: "When I received the news, I didn't hear that His Majesty was injured. Bishop Ronaldinho was also on the battlefield in the north."

At this time, another person came in from outside, pulling back the curtain.

It was Lord Gazi. Yunia Gazi walked up to Inger with a letter in her hand: "I just passed by the Teleportation Stone and brought this with me. Major General, this is for you, from Duke Mond."

Inger quickly removed the spell and opened the letter to read it with Alex.

After reading the contents of the letter, both of them's eyes lit up.

The letter was about a letter that Millia sent across the border to Mondstadt via a messenger hawk.

It said that they had successfully rescued Emperor Li Weier and were currently taking shelter in the eastern territory.

The purpose of this letter was, firstly, to inform them that the action was successful, and secondly, to express Li Wei'er's determination to agree to peace talks.

Duke Leon judged the importance of the letter and had it encrypted and sent directly via the teleportation stone.

Inger murmured: "Success..."

Lord Stella couldn't help but ask, "What was successful?"

Alex and Inger looked at each other and Inger shook her head at him.

So Alex didn't answer the question. He said, "I'll move to Boyi now."

Earl Stella wanted to ask again, but his eldest son Fleming stopped his father and whispered in his ear: "Father, His Highness must have his reasons for not saying anything yet."

Many generals also had doubts, but in the end they chose not to ask any more questions.

Before leaving, Alex looked at Archbishop Vito and said, "Archbishop, please take care of Inger's health."

Inger suddenly felt awkward.

Vito couldn't help laughing and said, "Look at him, do you think I can control him?"

Alex glanced at Inger and said, "If it doesn't work, just make him unconscious for a while to prevent him from making trouble."

Inger gave him a gnashing smile.

He then said to the senior generals around him: "This should be entering the final stage. The core instructions are from Major General Neka. Don't pursue recklessly, and don't relax. Be careful of counterattacks and strive to end the war as soon as possible."

"Yes, sir!"

Two days later.

Elena issued the order to retreat in the tent.

There were still many people with unwilling looks on their faces, but they all knew it.

Most of the dragons and wizards were captured, and they lost their most important fighting force. Moreover, after a few months, their supplies were seriously insufficient, and even with the "support" from the Amiel territory, it was not enough to fight a war of attrition for another month.

Elena didn't lose every battle, but this was the first time she made no progress on the battlefield and suffered such huge losses.

The soldiers would not blame her because they were the ones who participated in the battle themselves, they knew how strong the enemy was, and they could almost always predict their strategies.

Furthermore, if the other side had not been unwilling to kill them, and if Elena and other level 8 paladins had not been at the forefront, perhaps their losses would have been even more serious than they are now.

A general asked, "Your Majesty, has there been no news of reinforcements yet?!"

Elena frowned, "No."

This is not normal.

However, as soon as these words fell, news came from outside.

The messenger shouted loudly: "Marshal! His Majesty has sent reinforcements!"

Elena and her group went out quickly.

Gao Lingshi led a group of soldiers and lined up behind the tent waiting.

Seeing Elena coming, he knelt down respectfully.

Elena asked him to stand up and took the marching order from him. "Why are you here? Where is His Majesty? You should be with him."

Gao Lingshi still had a stern face and said expressionlessly, "Your Majesty will bring the army here later."

Elena couldn't help but laugh, "That's right, he is that kind of person."

When the people behind her heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Elena had just opened the marching order and was planning to check it casually, but the paper was torn into pieces in an instant before her eyes.

"Elena!"

Sister Tang Ni's scream rang in my ears.

Through her empty hands, Elena saw blood dripping from the soil at her feet, forming a pool of blood.

Elena raised her head and saw the same cold, yet unusually familiar and friendly face.

The knight uncle who had trained with her since she was a child.

With red eyes, Tang Ni stabbed at Gao Lingshi with a sword, but was successfully ambushed by another man and pierced through the shoulder, leaving him unable to move.

Gao Lingshi pulled out the sword from Elena's waist and stabbed it into Elena's chest again.

"Elena!"

"general!"

"Your Highness!"

Tears of blood flowed from Elena's eyes.

Seeing her like this, Gao Lingshi showed no mercy and said lightly: "I will take you to see His Majesty, Elena."

Elena grasped Gao Lingshi's wrist, and her left arm burst into blue energy, pulling the sword that had pierced her chest one step closer to herself.

Elena spat out a mouthful of blood.

Takamine's eyes widened at the huge force of that hand, and he immediately used his other hand to protect his neck.

The next second, Elena used the sword in her right hand to cut off Gao Lingshi's right arm.

Elena grinned with the sword in her hand and said, "Do you think you are the only one who has this thing?"

Elena swung her newly forged insulated stone sword and cut off the heads of several people around Gao Lingshi.

Gao Lingshi gritted his teeth, tore off his clothes to seal the wound, and retreated three steps.

The general behind Elena also led Elena to retreat quickly, and Tang Ni was injured and died.

"Take her away!" Tang Ni turned around and cursed, "Mr. Gao Ling! You ungrateful bastard! Go to hell!"

Veronica, who came in a hurry, threw a few ice cones angrily, picked up Elena and ran away.

There were actually quite a few high-ranking knights brought by Kaoreishi. The knights, who were originally from the same country and should have fought together, actually started killing each other.

"Report!"

"say!"

"Enemy troops are invading from the northern theater of operations!"

When Inger rushed over, he saw Veronica protecting the seriously injured Elena.

The Frost Knight who had given them all a headache was now their captive, and the person behind her was none other than the crown prince of Liweir.

Inger asked Count Cente, who was in charge of this war zone, "What's going on?"

"...They seem to be fighting among themselves. I told them not to get involved for now."

In front of the fence, two groups of people wearing the same uniform were facing each other.

Elena's team also had a lot of people, but they could only protect the general and did not dare to act rashly.

Inger's face turned pale as he looked at Elena, who was unconscious and covered in blood not far away.

Why? Why?!

Why was Elena seriously injured? !

This was an incident he was completely unaware of.

Inger's mind flashed back to the moment when Alex narrowly escaped being shot through the head with a spear.

Yes, in this world, the hero and heroine may not necessarily survive to the end.

Inger looked up and saw a knight with high-tied hair and a broken arm.

He recognized him as one of the participants in the Levi's coup and a knight guarding the Levi's Emperor.

Inger figured it out in an instant.

It was because they asked Millia to rescue the emperor of Levil that they came early to hunt down Elena.

Inger forced himself to swallow the nausea that rushed up his throat and ordered, "Attack, go capture Elena and the others."

Lord Cente and Knight Minna carried out his orders without hesitation.

Gao Lingshi's side did not bother with Qiu Ye's map troops. He confirmed Elena's condition and led his men to evacuate quickly.

On Elena's side, all the high-ranking knights were injured.

The remaining Veronica protected Elena like a wild beast, not letting anyone get close to her.

Although Inger had his troops surrounding them, he was slow to give orders.

Inger used the air to deploy a teleportation array and transferred Elena and Veronica out.

Bibidai's axe was pressed against Veronica's neck.

"If you dare to move, both of you will say goodbye to your heads and bodies."

Veronica nearly broke her teeth.

She uttered a series of words that they could not understand.

Inger shouted in Zarambula: *"Get out of here! She's dying! Let me save her!"

Veronica's eyes widened.

Inger kicked her away.

Veronica saw how pale his face was and how sweat was dripping from his face.

Inger touched the ice on Elena's wound and said tremblingly: "Remove the ice from her body, quickly!"

The ice would stop the bleeding, but it would only speed up the passage of her life.

When Veronica raised her neck, a sharp blood mark appeared on her neck. She hesitated for a few seconds, and finally reached out her hand to melt the ice.

Inger cast healing spells on Elena crazily.

But Elena's vitality was still fading at a speed visible to his naked eyes.

Inger has healed so many people on the battlefield that he now has a precise grasp of the extent of injuries and the possibility of recovery.

So, he was sure.

Elena will die in two minutes.

No matter how much magic he outputs, he cannot save people who are seriously injured to a certain extent.

Again and again.

He was forced to experience this scene countless times.

Those who were unable to be rescued were covered with a piece of white cloth, rolled up with straw mats, and burned in his hands.

Looking at Elena's face, my mind was in a mess.

[She is the protagonist? ]

[What will Alex do if she dies? ]

【What should we do in this world? 】

[Goddess, are you just going to let the protagonist of this world die? ]

[How could such a ridiculous thing happen? ]

[Did she die because of the changes we made? ]

[Will Mackay Olin cooperate with us? ]

[Without Elena, how far can we go? ]

[How can I save her? ]

【She can’t die.】

Inger felt the life flowing weakly, and caught a glimpse of the dense scars on his arms.

A revelation.

[………Ah, yes.]

[…How could a goddess let her beloved child die? ]

[…That’s why I’m here. ]

Inger cried and laughed, then closed his eyes in despair.
