In this way, this protracted battle gradually came to an end, and all three forces were wounded and exhausted.
Taking advantage of the intervals between battles, the three parties separated, busying themselves with replenishing their potions and taking a short rest.
However, at this moment, Duke Merlin's carefully prepared back-up plan came into play.
The dragon knights Betan and Long Er suddenly opened a crack in space and appeared in front of everyone without any warning.
As soon as the two appeared, they rushed directly towards the exhausted opponents without hesitation.
In an instant, a dragon man and a legendary powerful man of the kingdom died under their fierce attack.
Duke Merlin and Duke Zhanqi exchanged a glance, understood each other, and then called on the legendary forces of their own families to join the battle again.
But when they turned their eyes to their family members, they were stunned. However, the situation was urgent, so they gritted their teeth and rushed forward, continuing to fight a desperate battle with Pietro and the forces of the two kingdoms.
As time passed, the advantage of the dragon knights Betan and Long Er, who were in their prime, became more and more obvious. They were like a force to be reckoned with, and killed several legendary warriors in succession.
Upon seeing this, the people of the two kingdoms looked at each other, and secretly weighed the pros and cons in their hearts, feeling that the price of continuing the battle would be too high.
So, one of them decisively fired a flare into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, the two kingdoms joined forces and successfully forced back the legendary combat forces of the Merlin Family and the Battle Flag Family. They then quickly opened a space crack, drilled in, and disappeared without a trace.
After seeing the signal, the legions of the two kingdoms below immediately assembled their troops and marched rapidly towards the border, preparing to retreat to their own kingdoms.
Seeing this, Duke Merlin and Duke Battle Flag did not continue the pursuit, but instead turned their attention to Pietro.
Under their fierce attack, Pietro's dragon men fell one after another, and in the end only one was left.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Pietro had no choice but to throw an SS-level magic item "Flash Bomb" at Duke Merlin and others, and took the last dragon man to cut open a space crack and escape in a hurry.
This was a tough time for Pietro's legion below. They had no idea that Pietro had already escaped and was still talking with the legion commanders of the Magic City.
At this moment, a space crack suddenly appeared, and the Duke of War Flag flashed out from it.
With a stern expression, he ordered the legion commanders of the Magic City, "Go and take over the Pietro Legion. Kill anyone who refuses to surrender!"
After saying that, he instantly came in front of Pietro's legion commanders, and with a cold flash of the knight's sword in his hand, he cut their necks without hesitation.
Most of those who could serve as legion commanders were die-hard fans of Pietro, and the Duke of Battle Flag didn't even bother to ask them.
After dealing with all this, he opened up another space crack and walked away, leaving behind a group of people standing there looking at each other in bewilderment.
After a brief moment of astonishment, the legion commanders of the Magic City took action and mobilized their own legions to take over Pietro's legion.
At this time, in Pietro's several legions, the knight commanders were gathering together to discuss.
Since the fighting in the sky has stopped and they have not received any news yet, everyone is feeling uneasy.
At this moment, a communications knight rushed over to report: "Several legions from the Magic City have come out in full force and are surrounding us!"
When the dozen or so knight commanders heard this, they were struck by lightning and instantly realized that Pietro had been defeated.
In order to avoid unnecessary casualties among their soldiers, the leaders of the Knights Templar discussed the matter and finally decided to surrender directly.
In this way, the Magic City took over Pietro's legion extremely smoothly and encountered almost no resistance.
Duke Merlin dragged his exhausted body back to the castle with the dragon knights Betan and Long Er.
At the same time, the Duke of Battle Flag also hurried to the castle after properly explaining all post-war matters.
Duke Merlin turned around and faced the Dragon Knights Beitan and Long Er, saying with gratitude, "You have worked really hard today. Go down and rest quickly."
As she spoke, she reached into her bosom and pulled out two high-level space rings, handing them to the two of them.
Seeing this, Beitan and Long Er waved their hands and said firmly, "There's really no need for this. We can't accept it."
After Duke Merlin pulled a few more times, seeing that the two were so determined, he stopped forcing them and slowly withdrew his hand.
Afterwards, Duke Merlin summoned the servants and instructed, "Take them and Long downstairs to have a good rest. Remember to send SS-grade magical healing potions to their rooms so that they can recover from their injuries as quickly as possible."
The servant responded respectfully and left with Betan and the others.
Duke Merlin watched them leave. After they disappeared from his sight, he turned around and discussed with Duke Zhanqi worriedly, "The losses this time are truly enormous..."
Upon hearing this, the Duke of Battle Flag sighed slightly, raised his head, drank a sip of the healing potion, and slowly said, "Indeed, it is true. Alas! Now, including me, there are only two legendary warriors in our family. How are things over there?"
Upon hearing this, Duke Merlin's expression instantly grew serious. He said with a look of worry, "I do have one more person here than you, but my great-grandmother took an SS-level spirit-burning potion. Now that the effects have worn off, I'm afraid she won't be able to cast magic again."
After saying this, a deep sadness appeared on her face.
You know, it is not easy to cultivate a legendary strongman. It cannot be achieved overnight. It is the result of thousands of years of accumulation and thousands of years of profound foundation to create a few legends.
However, now, the family's legendary fighting power has been almost exhausted in this war.
The two fell into a long silence, sitting there silently, each immersed in worries about the future of their family.
At this moment, no words can express the heaviness and helplessness in their hearts.
In this oppressive silence, the Duke of Battle Flag was the first to break the silence and slowly said, "I have decided to marry my daughter to Martin."
Duke Merlin never expected that Duke Zhanqi would speak in such a way. For a moment, his brain was confused and he was stunned for a long time.
However, she quickly recovered and said, "Martin will probably not refuse this marriage."
After hearing this, Duke Zhanqi nodded in agreement.
At this time, his mind had become active and he began to think about the various impacts and changes that this action might bring.
Then, the conversation naturally turned to territorial affairs, and they began to discuss when to send troops to recover the lost land in the Central Territory.
Under the current situation, the situation in the southern border is complicated. They know that they are unable to swallow it with their current strength and can only put it on hold for the time being.
