Chapter 252252. A just cause for the teacher
It was evening.
The fighting in the city continues.
There were still sporadic battles in the blazing flames. The large-scale enemy forces had been completely defeated, and no one could stop the modern army of the Free Territory.
Under Evelyn's leadership, this army seemed to have a soul.
It was no longer possible for someone to kill a lot of people in the battle array by relying on his own strength. However, it still cost a huge amount of casualties.
A powerful Saint Domain warrior rushed into the crowd desperately, holding two swords, and could take away lives around him with just one spin.
The gunman's leather armor was like paper in front of her blade. In just a few breaths, more than a dozen people died under her knife.
However, with Evelyn's targeted control, the unknown swordsman was besieged and targeted.
Killed instantly!
There are more than one similar scenes.
Zoe was sure that if Evelyn hadn't been in charge, the Freedom Army would have been defeated by this group of strong men.
After dealing with the troublemaker, the subsequent progress went much more smoothly.
With the help of the people of the city.
Large sections of the coalition forces were destroyed one after another.
The Free Territory's army was almost out of ammunition.
Fortunately, at this time, a group of reinforcements arrived from outside the city, led by more than ten Limit Breakers such as the Ice Sword Saint and the Wild Sand Sword Saint, with a total number of more than 30,000. They became an important factor in ending the battle.
Late at night, heavy snow fell from the sky like goose feathers.
This was not a coincidence, but the result of Evelyn's summons, which piled up a large amount of clouds under Morninglight City and used rain to weaken the fire.
A few water elemental guards alone were not enough to deal with the fire in the entire city.
"You are finally reliable for once." In the banquet hall of Black Blade Fort, Duke Dafen sat in the main seat with a tired look on his face.
Dinner was still being prepared, and the waiter was pouring red wine into the tall glasses in front of the long table.
"I have always been reliable." Evelyn drank wine and water to moisten her throat. "Mother, you are old. If you can't hold on, forget it. I don't want to hear the news that you died in battle."
"Why didn't you come earlier? If you had come a few days earlier, Morning Light City wouldn't have suffered such a great loss." Duke Dafen asked in a blaming tone.
“You think too highly of me. With my current strength, it would be very troublesome to deal with a legendary master,” Evelin argued.
"It's troublesome, but it's not impossible to deal with it, right?" Duke Dafen glanced.
“It depends on how much you give.” Evelyn admitted frankly.
Duke Dafen sneered and shook his head, his eyes full of contempt.
Evelin remained completely calm, as she was already used to similar taunts.
"Our army, which was so strong, suffered heavy losses! Only 1,700 people are left out of 3,000, which is almost half of our total."
"Do you know how many people are left in this city?"
"Less than half?"
"Out of 170,000 people, it's good enough if 50,000 are left."
Of the four major districts, the richest South District was burned down, and the hardest-hit XC District was also completely destroyed. The DC District relied on its complex streets to deal with the enemy, and the North District suffered the least.
Ebon Fort was outside the city and was not directly affected by the war.
This castle has a long history, and even Duke Dafen himself may not know all of its defensive strengths. Each successive owner of the castle has left behind their own methods. If a fight is used nearby, it may be triggered.
Therefore, the coalition forces only besieged Ebony Fort and did not launch an offensive.
"With so many people dead, you'd better be careful of the plague! It's best to dispose of the bodies!"
"You don't need to worry about it."
Grand Duke Dafen allowed his servant to wrap a napkin around him, and holding the silver serving spoon, he gently stroked the bright red piece of meat.
This is dragon meat!
As a herbivorous animal, the meat of the Velociraptor is of good quality and is considered to be of high quality.
"I need to thank Lord Lovi's army for winning this difficult battle. I will remember their contributions and loyal dedication, as will the people of Morning Light City. As for you." Duke Dafen put the steak into his mouth with a complicated look in his eyes: "Should I praise you, former lord?"
In Dafen's opinion, Evelyn was undoubtedly very unqualified as an heir.
They are all in their forties and have never taken on any responsibilities.
"No need. I'm just a guest. If there's anything I can do, I'll help. If not, I'm sorry, you're on your own. I'll find a way to avenge you, mother." Evelyn crossed her legs and giggled.
"Do you think you've become too powerful and I can't beat you?" Duke Dafen's face darkened.
"I'm not your enemy." Evelyn stopped when she saw the opportunity and changed the subject seriously, "When I came here, I found that most of the villages and towns on the border of the principality were looted. There was nothing left except the undead. What are your plans?"
"Attack is the best defense!" Duke Dafen said in a cold voice.
This time, she was really determined. Moreover, she was no longer without a clear reason.
At the end of the year, Donggang City entered the coldest time of the year. Endless snow buried everything on the road.
Everyone stopped outdoor activities except for a few limited hours at noon each day.
Several scholars from the Central Continent froze to death.
No one would have thought it would be so difficult here.
"I regret it. This place is hell."
"Mom, I want to go back. I was wrong. Woo woo."
"Just bear with it a little longer. If others can survive, why can't we?"
"I suspect it's colder here than in the northern continent."
"No wonder, if you want to survive here, you must be smart, otherwise..."
In the newly built library, two young scholars wrapped in heavy leather coats were shivering while playing chess.
Apart from going home and hiding on the kang, they spend most of their time in the library because it has floor heating.
This is truly a life-saving invention. Everyone wrapped themselves up like bears, much more exaggerated than the locals.
"Alas, the people here are all in such good health. It seems that they are forced by the environment. Weak people like us, living here, may be naturally eliminated."
"I heard that cities further south will be a little warmer."
"Haha, do you think it's useful?"
"It's useless. There's no floor heating over there. It might be even colder."
"Just for your information, I asked others if it was as cold as in previous years, and they said it was slightly warmer this year than in previous years."
"How is this possible? If it gets any colder, it will really become hell."
Amidst the flying snow, a shadowy figure moved with the wind. As the sword light flashed, it drew elegant patterns on the ice, just like a painter.
Lodel stood on the shore, panting, and continuously exhaling long puffs of white air.
At a time when firearms were constantly being innovated, she felt that the status of warriors was under great impact.
If you want to avoid being eliminated by the times, you have to be faster!
