Chapter 41:
On the city wall where the north fell, in addition to the legends who were still fighting each other, the battle between ordinary orcs and human warriors was even more fierce. The blood from the stumps turned the ground into a quagmire of flesh and blood.
The magic spells of the mages and shamans have long been used up, and now only the most brutal hand-to-hand combat is left. Human warriors often have to trade two lives for one orc's life.
The banner of victory in the war is shifting towards the orcs. "Ah", a legendary legion commander was exhausted. One arm was chopped off by a battle axe. A magical light flashed on his body. The injured legion commander escaped using a teleportation scroll.
"Coward," the orc legend cursed angrily, and then pounced on another human legend. The legendary combat power of the two sides was unbalanced. The Frostwolf Grand Duke was furious and a legendary magic scroll was torn open.
The legendary magic Scorching Flame Waterfall, a huge flame waterfall, fell from the sky and landed directly outside the city wall. Countless orcs were wiped out in ashes. "Bastard", the corners of Talon's eyes burst out and tears of blood were shed. That was the elite of his Frostwolf clan.
"Act as planned," Duke Frostwolf roared, and several legends took the opportunity to leave the battlefield. "Retreat as planned", the human troops began to retreat. The ordinary troops of the Frostwolf tribe were severely damaged by the legendary magic and were unable to pursue them.
Long before the pass fell, most of the ordinary people in the city were evacuated, leaving only the major temples and imperial troops.
The Duke of Frostwolf does not intend to fight the orcs in Frostwolf City. Currently, he only has more than 100,000 capable soldiers, and other cities in the northern province will not be much better than Frostwolf City.
If the emperor is unkind, don't blame him for being unjust. Facing a force ten times stronger than itself, the northern province has reached its limit. Although I don't understand why the orcs are attacking with only a few tribes and not with all their strength.
But now that he has broken the unspoken rules and used legendary magic on the battlefield, he will definitely face horrific revenge from the orcs. It is better to use this only window of opportunity to retreat. If he hesitates again, he will have no chance.
On this day, Duke Frostwolf took advantage of the loopholes in the Legendary Mage Convention and used legendary magic as a legendary warrior. He withdrew from Frostwolf City with the remaining strength of the Northern Legion, and the northern province fell.
In Li Ge's mage tower, the golden dragon Elsa and dozens of temple clergy teleported over, and then Leia canceled the temple's teleportation authority.
"Li Ge, this time our temple personnel will stay with you temporarily." Golden Dragon Elsa explained the reason. The northern province had fallen.
"Sister Elsa, just stay here with peace of mind. I am not the focus of the orcs' attention yet. If only a few legends come, they won't be able to do anything to me." Li Ge now has this confidence.
The golden dragon Elsa has had many dealings with Li Ge and several giant dragons over the years, and they even benefited from them together when Bahamut came. Now that the Platinum Dragon God Temple cannot evacuate with humans, Li Ge's territory has become the best place to stay temporarily. After all, he is still the dragon lord recognized by Bahamut in name only.
If the orcs don't want an all-out war with the Dragon God, they won't destroy the Platinum Dragon God's temple, but there's no guarantee that if that guy has a convulsion in his head, the benevolent Platinum Dragon God is not a pedantic god, and he will send an oracle to let the orcs All clergy in the occupied areas retreated.
As for the temples of the human gods that are hostile to the orc gods, they have long been withdrawn together with the Frostwolf Archduke, except for a certain God of War who did not mind the trouble and had a hand in both sides.
In the following days, Li Ge would take time to go to the edge of the battlefield to investigate the situation in person tomorrow. He didn't dare to go to the center of the battlefield. The demigod-level combat forces on both sides were still there. If he didn't like it, he wouldn't be able to go back.
After the defeat of the Frostwolf Archduke, the Rhine Empire used the old border of a hundred years ago as a defense line. The huge central army and the reinforcements from the major human kingdoms, principalities and temples of human gods withstood the orc attack.
The northern provinces are just an appetizer; the real decisive battle is only beginning now. The northern province, including Frostwolf City, is sparsely populated, half of which is occupied by alien races. It is far less prosperous than the hinterland of the empire. Humans purely use the northern province to consume the vitality of the orcs.
"The hearts of the higher-ups in the human race are really cruel. No matter what the northern province is, there are still 20 to 30 million people. Even if half of it is lost, it will still be tens of millions of lives."
Seeing the golden dragon Elsa obtain information through her temple system, Li Ge, Leia and her daughter felt a little frightened. Human life has become a simple number in the eyes of high-level human beings. Even in the eyes of human gods, ordinary people are just leeks. After experiencing some disasters, their faith in gods will become more pious.
The only powerful human power that is unhappy is the goddess of wealth. Every war is a huge destruction of social wealth.
The golden dragon Elsa picked up another document, "Human beings encourage qualified and powerful adventurers and mercenary groups to enter the fallen northern province to attack and destroy the orcs' rear. There are already a large number of Adventurers from all major races have come in, and the Elf Empire has also sent a lot of Elf troops to join in their own names." "The orc gods
are too cruel. The main races on the continent have a bad relationship with the orcs. Now the main force of the orcs is concentrated. When dealing with humans, there must be a lot of people who want to cause trouble for the orcs," Li Ge said with a smile.
"By the way, Sister Elsa, do you know the brother of the Red Dragon Queen? This mature red dragon has also joined the orcs' team." Li Ge recalled the information provided by the white dragon.
The golden dragon Elsa smiled charmingly, "If the Red Dragon Queen hears what the red dragon said, she will be beaten half to death."
Elsa then explained to Li Ge and the curious Leia mother and daughter that it turned out that the red dragon queen and the bragging red dragon were really dragons from the same nest.
The red dragon queen has been gifted since she was a child. After being kicked out of the dragon's nest by the mother dragon, the two young dragons once formed a small team together to survive in the wilderness.
But then the two young dragons encountered a small treasure, and the male dragon attacked the young Red Dragon Queen Rihanna, seriously injuring her.
Rihanna survived the catastrophe and unexpectedly awakened the rainbow dragon bloodline buried in her body for unknown generations. From then on, she embarked on the path of the female version of Dragon Aotian. This was what a dragon demigod told the golden dragon Elsa
, It should be very reliable. "That mature red dragon is a little confused about life and death. I will contact the Red Dragon Queen right now," Li Ge said with some gloating.
The scales Rihanna gave him and Leia were still there, and Leia was very interested in joining in the fun. Now several dragons were gathered together, and Leia cast the spell herself.
The noble and beautiful mirror image of the Red Dragon Queen emerged, "Liya, Li Ge, and Elsa. These two should be Yilin and Celia who are very famous among the silver dragons." Rihanna looked at it with interest. There are two young silver dragons at the head.
Li Ge's eyelids twitched. He had forgotten that Rihanna liked the beautiful little female dragon. He coughed quickly and said, "Her Royal Highness, I have something to tell you this time. There is a strong red dragon in the orc army, claiming to be your brother."
There was a power outage in the factory for a while in the afternoon, so I coded a little more when I had nothing to do
