Chapter 68: East Gate
Lu Yuan said to the squad of Knight-errant Knight, “Protect the Princess well! I’ll go to the East Gate to take a look!”
Then, Lu Yuan rode his little white horse to the East Gate.
“We’ll go too!” Princess Kate said to the few Knight-errant Knights.
“But General Lu Yuan asked us to protect you here!” said a Knight-errant Knight to Princess Kate.
“Since the East Gate hasn’t been breached, my father might still be there!” Princess Kate said to the Knight-errant Knight.
The few Knight-errant Knights looked at each other and finally decided to accompany Princess Kate to the East Gate.
Since the East Gate hadn’t been breached, it meant that Holy Knight Nick was still alive. And that the Jinyao Knights of Jinyao City was still guarding the gate.
They also wanted to do their part.
On the way to the East Gate, Lu Yuan saw countless corpses, severed arms, and limbs. The streets were stained with blood and dyed a different color.
It was enough to show how fierce the battle between Jinyao City and the Devil Flame Mountain was.
However, there was one thing that puzzled Lu Yuan.
After taking down the west, south, and north gates, the demons had turned to gather at the East Gate to invade the city.
Why didn’t they enter the city and meet up with the demons outside the East Gate? Wouldn’t that help them surround the East Gate on both sides?
Lu Yuan couldn’t figure it out now. Then, he shook his head slowly and smiled. Demons would always be demons. They were brainless. He guessed that the smart demon leader that he had met at Devil Flame Mountain had been killed.
If the demons knew Lu Yuan’s thoughts at this time, they would definitely curse Lu Yuan.
“Damn it! They had quietly taken the people away and now we’re killing nothing but the air in the city?”
“Damn it! Those despicable humans snuck everyone away and caused so many demons to die. Come in and take a look. Damn it, the city is empty!”
“There are still people to kill at the East Gate. Of course, we’ll head there!”
“A siege! Do you know what is a f*cking siege? How can attacking from behind be called a siege?”
Soon, Lu Yuan arrived at the East City Gate. He looked up to the top of the city wall. There stood a tall figure wearing golden armor and holding a golden lance on the top of the East City Gate. A faint golden Holy Light was gathered around him.
That person was the City Lord of Jinyao City.
Lu Yuan jumped onto the top of the city wall and stood with the City Lord.
Suddenly, the Divine Thunder descended.
Lu Yuan looked down and saw that Holy Knight Nick was surrounded by the Divine Thunder and there were more than ten demon leaders before him.
Holy Knight Nick was facing more than ten demon leaders alone.
With the help of the Divine Thunder, Nick fought harder and harder.
The demon leaders could not withstand even one blow from Nick and were heavily injured.
However, the demon leaders were taking turns to fight which continually depleted Nick. They took turns in groups to deplete Nick.
But Nick was not afraid at all. His eyes were filled with an endless fighting spirit.
The Divine Thunder was constantly on the lance in Nick’s hand. At this moment, his Holy Light armor was also surrounded by thunder and lightning!
Around him, the earth was filled with thunder and lightning. As soon as the demons got close to Nick, they would immediately get injured.
As soon as Nick had just finished fighting one group, another group of demon leaders rushed forward.
Then the previous group went to recover from their injuries.
Lu Yuan did not expect these demons to actually have a strategy.
A demon leader first faced Nick’s Lightning Lance. But after a mere glance, the demon leader was hit by Nick consecutively and was seriously injured.
The demon leader had thought that he could go back to heal his injuries while the others stalled for him like before.
But at this moment, the demon leader suddenly felt a gust of hot wind blowing against his face, and a Flame Lance appeared in front of his eyes almost instantly.
Psst!
The Flame Lance pierced through the demon leader’s head, and the collision of flames and blood constantly produced a sizzling sound. Then, steam emerged from his head.
Now, Nick turned back to look at the city wall and gave Lu Yuan a thumbs up.
“Who is that?” One of the demon leaders suddenly looked at the city wall.
A young Knight wearing a Frost Armor and holding a Flame Lance was standing beside the City Lord of Jinyao City.
Then, the City Lord said, “General Lu Yuan, are the people of Jinyao City and Princess Kate safe?”
Lu Yuan replied, “The people are now in the oasis of the Desert of Death, but Princess Kate should be right behind you now!”
The City Lord suddenly turned his head and saw that Princess Kate was rushing over. Then, the City Lord shook his head helplessly and smiled.
“Then, you have not completed your mission well enough!” said the City Lord to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan smiled but did not reply. He threw the Flame Lance in his hand again, and the terrifying Flame Lance penetrated straight into the body of another demon leader.
When the demon leader saw that Lu Yuan had killed another demon leader, he immediately flew into a rage.
Lu Yuan’s appearance posed a threat to their lives.
“Kill him!” One of the demon leaders ordered the other demons.
In an instant, the demons rushed towards the top of the city wall. At the same time, the remaining 100,000 plus Jinyao Knights of Jinyao City had also gathered at the East Gate.
For a long time, the demon army could not break through the East Gate.
The Demon Army looked towards the direction of the city wall, but the 100,000 Jinyao Knights at the East Gate were not to be trifled with.
The infinite Holy Light shot into the sky again, enveloping the Jinyao Knight, providing them with stat bonus!
And on the demons’ side, they were gathering endless blood aura like crazy. They were looking towards the city wall.
The battle had begun once again.
Lu Yuan had not been idle either. He saw a gigantic Ice-blue Magic Array appear above the demon army. Following that, countless hailstones fell from the sky, and a large group of demons lost HP immediately.
Group Skill: Frost Descent!
This was the terrifying aspect of frost descent. It was extremely suitable to be used to clear out the mess of troops.
Seeing this, the demons became even more frenzied. At this moment, they were already red-eyed from all the killing. They had fought for so long and yet it was so difficult to take the East Gate.
In an instant, the entire world was dyed red with fresh blood again.
Lu Yuan could not help but sigh. The sacrifices in the war were really too great!
In a large-scale war, human lives seemed worthless. Even though these were merely NPCs in a game, their blood looked so real.
Just like in his previous life, after the game world fused with the real world, only the high-level players had some ability to protect themselves. The commoners were basically slaughtered like animals.
At this time, Lu Yuan was still paying attention to Holy Knight Nick’s situation.
After all, there was a lot of EXP to be gained from killing these demon leaders.
At this time, another demon leader was seriously injured by Nick.
The Flame Lance in Lu Yuan’s hand burst with terrifying high heat.
That demon leader was instantly terrified..
