The next morning, the city's nobles, accompanied by their families, arrived in a steady stream of carriages and horses, heading out of the city. Many, sitting in carriages or on horseback, frequently glanced back toward the city. Their eyes were filled with reluctance. The city's mansions, familiar streets, and past prosperity seemed to tug at their hearts.
Finally, they gritted their teeth, hardened their hearts, and drove the carriage towards Longya Pass. Their figures gradually disappeared in the raised dust.
Inside the castle, Karen, who had already gotten up and was eating breakfast, received a message from Wayne via the communication crystal. Wayne announced that he had successfully reunited with the remnants of the Tenth Legion.
But after the reunion, they discovered that an orcish supernatural army had been feigning inaction, sending only a few battalions to fish. Now that reinforcements had arrived, the orcs' true intentions were exposed - a full-strength supernatural army quickly appeared, closely following them, and pursuing them relentlessly.
So far, no trace of the Golden Orcs has been found. However, under the orcs' pursuit and interception, the Tenth Legion and the Knights have suffered continuous casualties, heavy losses in personnel, and their morale has been extremely low.
Because the orcs were chasing them too closely, they were forced to retreat into a large canyon in the Frost Zero Plains. Now they were blocked and in a desperate situation.
In addition, Wayne also mentioned that their father has woken up, but his injuries are too severe to move for the time being.
Wayne urgently pleaded at the end of the message: "Brother, if possible, send out the remaining knights. No matter what the cost, we must rescue father!"
After reading the message, Karen fell silent. Time passed by minute by minute, and the air seemed to freeze.
After a long moment, Karen took a deep breath, picked up the communication crystal, and forwarded the message verbatim to Martin. He also sent the location of the Grand Canyon, hoping that he could find a way to rescue his father from danger.
Martin had just finished washing up when he received a message. He quickly pulled out his communication crystal and took a closer look. His expression changed dramatically in an instant. His brow furrowed, his mind rapidly calculating the situation. After a long pause, he sighed helplessly and decided: "Let it be exposed!" Immediately, he picked up the communication crystal, quickly edited a message, and sent it along with the Grand Canyon's location.
Elsewhere, Betan and Del Luna received the order and sprang into action. They swiftly stepped out of the room, their knightly powers surging through them. Their figures flashed like ghosts, vanishing in the blink of an eye.
Soon, they arrived at Martin's room. Martin raised his hand, motioning for them to wait, and then turned and left. A moment later, Martin hurried back. With a flick of his mind, he pulled out the White Family's only two remaining sets of A-grade knight armor from his space ring. The two sets of armor were covered in shallow marks, showing the wear and tear of time. Martin handed the armor to the two men.
Without hesitation, Betan and the other two quickly took the armor and donned it. Instantly, powerful energy surges erupted from their bodies, their previously ordinary figures now rendered taller and more imposing by the armor. The two exchanged glances, then saluted Martin. Immediately, they exerted force on their feet, transforming into two afterimages in the blink of an eye, sprinting towards the Grand Canyon.
Meanwhile, in the distant royal palace, in the residence of the third prince, Saka, the court musicians were fully engaged in playing beautiful music. Prince Saka leaned back in a soft chair, enjoying it all comfortably.
Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in the shadows of a corner of the palace, like a ghost. Prince Saka was quick to notice the change and immediately raised his hand to signal everyone to leave. After the musicians and attendants filed out and closed the door, Prince Saka said anxiously, "Have you brought that thing?"
The shadowy mass, lurking in the darkness, slowly shifted, its outline becoming increasingly clear as a sturdy orc suddenly emerged! Exuding a feral aura, the orc, draped in a magic cloak, stepped into the light, neither polite nor rude. "Your magic item is indeed effective. The communication crystals in that area have become useless instantly. It's a shame that such an S-grade item was wasted." With that, the orc pulled out an SS-grade Dragon Servant Ring, an ancient magic item, from his spatial ring and handed it to Prince Saka. "The Great Elder told me to give this to you and to tell you we're happy to work together." With that, the orc slowly retreated to a corner of the palace, his figure instantly fading into the shadows there and vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The third prince, Saka, took the magic item, the Dragon Taming Ring, and gently stroked it in his hand. After a long while, Saka reluctantly put the Dragon Taming Ring into his space ring.
At this time, a fierce battle was going on in the Grand Canyon of the Frost Zero Plains. The orcs drove the remnants of the Tenth Legion and the Knights into the Grand Canyon. As the road below the Grand Canyon gradually narrowed and was not suitable for the legion to fight, the momentum of the attack gradually weakened, and the remnants of the army also breathed a sigh of relief, relying on the terrain to fight back and forth with the orcs.
At this moment, behind the Orc Legion, the Orc Legion Commander looked at the stagnant offensive with a fierce light in his eyes. His patience had been exhausted and he was no longer willing to wait for another second. He flashed in front of the knights' formation.
He rushed alone, like a flash of black lightning, straight towards the remnants of the Tenth Legion. In just a moment, the Tenth Legion's already shaky defense was completely broken.
Seeing this, the two remaining knight commanders of the Legion and the two knight commanders of the White family exchanged a glance and charged forward without hesitation. However, as the two sides met, all four were instantly killed and fell from their horses.
The knights behind him saw this, and fear instantly spread like a tide in their hearts. But the orc leader showed no sign of stopping. He flashed and rushed into the crowd. For a moment, screams rang out, limbs and arms flew down, and bodies fell in pools of blood.
