215 Broken City


    When an elf advance team entered Valentine City through the underground passageway and pushed open the door of a cer, the elf soldiers heaved a sigh of relief.


    After this team of 50 elites who came with the determination to die carefully walked out of this empty room, they discovered that there were no ambushes or soldiers around. In the distance, intense battle cries sounded. Nearby, they could even hear the low cries of themoners. This small city that had blocked the Dusk Legion for a few days was finally exposed to the elves.


    The leading officer instructed in a low voice, “Send the signal and let the follow-up troops set off.”


    The messenger went.


    Then, the officer pulled out his two swords and drew a pattern, “Everyone, for the glory of the legion and to wash away the humiliation of the past few days… Kill wantonly, set fire to it, and destroy it wantonly!”


    Their mission was to create chaos and write a note for the final score of this war.


    The soldiers took off the two bottles of hot glue on their belts, pulled out the safety bolt, and threw them forcefully. The bottles shattered, and mes exploded. The fire instantly surged, and they began to run wildly along the street.


    The archers then pulled out a special arrow from their quivers and shed the side of theirbat boots. mes suddenly bloomed from the arrowhead. They drew their bows and nocked arrows. The line of fire shot angrily at the part of the wooden house.


    When themoner heard themotion, he stuck his head out in surprise and saw a cluster of silver armor roaring along the street. Then, an arrow shot into his throat, causing him to fall back. Immediately after, a woman’s scream sounded in the house, followed by many screams.


    “The elves are here—”


    Fear instantly exploded.


    The patrol team patrolling this ce was killed like a hot knife through butter.


    Blood and screams ruled the street.


    At the same time, silver armor darted out of the houses everywhere in the city. Near the armory, near the upper granary, near the lower granary, in the city center, the court, the arena… Elven teams suddenly rushed out and set fire to all sides, causing chaos and shouting the rumors of the city being broken.


    They set fire to important ces like the granary and arsenal. They killed the administrators, burned houses, and chased themoners around. The solid city was captured from the inside, and unprecedented fear and chaos continuously spread. Screams, blood, and death. Valentine had already begun to copse.


    The news spread to Thendron outside the city.


    Themander pondered for a moment and said firmly, “The follow-up troops will be mobilized!”


    The sess of the vanguard had already proven that Nick Valentine was not lying. The map provided by the other party was marked with the various strategic locations in the city. Now, it seemed that there was no mistake. The granary had been destroyed, the arsenal had been destroyed, and many important departments had been destroyed. This city had already lost all its war potential.


    Hmph, they were indeed despicable and ugly humans.


    As expected,pared to the country, his life and the continuation of his family were more important.


    However, it did not matter. This Valentine would be an outstanding example.


    1,500 elf infantrymen drove into the underground secret passage and headed towards Valentine City.


    Thendron looked at the intense wall of the siege. The enemy’s resistance and strength were already weaker than yesterday, but an internal and foreign attack could be exchanged for fewer casualties. This battle was so strenuous, and the losses were not light to begin with. He had to think of a way to preserve the strength of the Dusk Legion as much as possible. After all…


    He sighed softly.


    “I hope my decision is right…” He closed his eyes. The wounds on his body were still in pain. Even with the top medical system of the elves, that unheard attack method still made him suffer greatly.


    “Kang De… Kang De…”


    He clenched his fists and muttered, “How can I capture you…”


    On the observation deck of the city hall, Nick looked down at the entire city. There were mes everywhere. The patrol team formed by the youth army was fighting the pioneers of the elves. They had only received training for a short period of time and were no match for the elves. Small teams were killed one after another. mes soared into the sky and it was chaos.


    “Su, I’m willing to pay any price for my sins, even if my soul will fall into endless mes and be tortured forever after death. I have nothing else to ask for except to kill a few more elves.”


    He closed his eyes andpleted what might be thest prayer of his life.


    He said softly, “I only hope that these innocent living beings will rise to your country after death and stay away from all sin and cruelty. I hope they can live in your warm arms forever.”


    The chief mage beside him said, “It’s about time.”


    Nick opened his eyes. “Then activate it… Unfortunately, the elves are careful and won’t send many people.”


    A loud bang sounded.


    The expression of the soldier who was deep in the tunnel suddenly changed. The shield suddenly opened. He desperatelymunicated with the surrounding earth elements and said sternly, “Hurry…”


    In the next moment, muffled explosions sounded from all parts of the tunnel. The shock wave shook back and forth. Traces of soil fell, and then more and more. Immediately after, with a series of huge roars, the tunnel copsed!


    More than a thousand elf soldiers fled back and forth, but how could living beings resist the anger of nature? Parts of the tunnel copsed and fell like falling bones. No matter how strong an elf army and brave soldiers were, they were also helpless in the face of heavy pressure and suffocation. Moreover, there were human mages adding fuel to the fire above.


    This vibration spread in all directions, and the ground in and outside the city shook slightly. In front of the elf formation, Thendron was first stunned, then his face turned pale as he said sternly, “What’s going on?”


    The personal soldiers went to investigate, but not long after, themander saw an officer rush over crying, “Lord! Lord! The tunnel has copsed! Our soldiers are all buried inside!”


    Thendron’s body swayed and he almost fell. His eyes were dazed and his face was filled with disbelief as if he was hearing things. His hands were trembling, and his breathing became difficult. Then, everything turned to anger.


    “H-how dare he do this?!”


    1,500 soldiers were probably wiped out and died without a sound. This kind of death was very different from dying in a siege—thetter was still considered glory, but the former was humiliation and grievance!


    How could that human, d*mned Nick Valentine, dare to do this?!


    The map was fine, the vanguard was fine, and his excuse was fine! Valentine City was broken, and the wealth of the family could not be guaranteed. What was wrong with betraying the soon-to-be-extinct Goethe for all of this?! What was wrong with finding a new master for himself?! Human nobles were all like this! Why was this person not like this?!


    —Isn’t he afraid of death?!


    Did he want his family’s lineage to end here?!


    —Why did he still do this when the city was about to be broken and he was about to lose?!


    Did he pretend to surrender and kept his family here and let the vanguard enter the city to burn and kill just to kill these more than a thousand soldiers?! However, the main force of the Twilight Legion was still around! The city would still be broken!


    Did he not know the consequences of doing this?!


    “…ughter the city.”


    Thendron’s hands trembled and his teeth chattered. This was not fear, but anger.


    It was the anger of wanting to destroy everything.


    He said sternly, “Intensify the attack! Tell all the soldiers! Ourrades died in a human conspiracy! We have to avenge them! Take down this city! Kill everyone! Everyone!”


    In the city, Nick had already begun to organize a counterattack to kill the elf team.


    Outside the city, Thendron had already lost his mind. He no longer considered the idea of preserving his strength. Ignoring the casualties and price, the Dusk Legionunched a fierce attack at all costs.


    Valentine’s soldiers still resisted bravely. However, this time, there was no longer the Cathayan, Kang De, and hispanions to help everyone defend the city. Since the Twilight Legion had already given up on the idea of preserving their strength and took out all their belongings to fight Valentine to the death, this city no longer had a chance.


    All the precious magic items and enchanted weapons were used without any heartache. Even the soldiers of the supply team were integrated into the arrow formation. As long as they were elves, they would draw their bows and shoot.


    Finally, the elves attacked the city wall.


    One, two, three.


    The soldiers jumped into the crowd and danced with their heavy swords like windmills to clean up thending area. The soldiers behind quickly pressed forward and quickly upied an arrow tower. The soldiers of the arrow regiment swarmed over and opened their huge bows.


    A shooting position had already been built.


    The mages attacked with all their might and attacked with all their might. The human mages had consumed a lot recently and finally exhausted their magic power. They fell to the ground one after another. The elf mages who still had strength built a soil slope that spread to the city wall again.


    The tactic of the first surprise attack on the city was repeated.


    The elf cavalry roared and rushed forward. A portion of the knights rushed up diagonally and took the opportunity to collide and sh in the direction of the city wall. Another portion of the knights rode stronger andrger battle deer and jumped high up the city wall andnded in the city. They quickly gathered, rushed left and right, and killed soldiers along the way. They turned to pounce at the city gate and kill the humans defending it.


    They all carriedrge doses of alchemy medicine and threw them in the direction of the city gate.


    A few mages had already climbed to the top of the wall and cast spells together.


    Amidst an earth-shattering explosion, cheers suddenly sounded. The horn outside the city was vast, and groups of elf cavalry surged towards the copsed city gate like a silver wave!


    Nick, who was already in full military uniform, trembled. “The city has been broken.”


    A tear slowly slid down his face.


    “Chief Mage…” He said softly to the Chief Mage beside him, “Do you think anyone will remember our story many yearster? How will they evaluate us?”


    The other party’s expression was also calm. “Mr. Mayor, I thought you wouldn’t care about this.”


    Nick revealed a deste and sad smile and muttered, “No, I’ll still care…”


    “No matter what…” The mage bowed and said, “It’s an honor to work with you.”


    Nick wiped his only tear and pressed the hilt of his sword at his waist.


    “Then, let’s fight against fate.”


    More and more elf soldiers rushed to the top of the wall, and more warriors surged into the city. Without the protection of the solid city wall, the terrifying difference in quality between the elves and the humans was immediately revealed. The powerful armies of the world roared and killed their way into the city. They wanted revenge, punishment, and destruction.


    “Kill! Kill! Kill!”
