Volume 4: The Game of the Gods Chapter 33 The Evil Star that Chases Souls and Takes Life
Gong Lili was not the only one who noticed this sudden night attack.
On top of the highest wall of Yonghui City, the black-bottomed, silver-rimmed trident flag, unique to the Ruoye tribe, stood against the wind. Under the cover of night, the silver trident exuded a faint chill, and under the flag stood a tall and graceful young man in black armor and a black helmet. At this moment, he had his eyes slightly closed and his expression was calm. His sharp features looked a bit arrogant in the moonlight.
The night wind blew gently, blowing the dark green hair from under his black helmet into the air wantonly, swaying in the wind along with the big flag. But at this moment, the people behind him could feel the fierce killing intent emanating from his whole body...
"Your Highness, I'm here." The black-armored general at the side suddenly took a few steps forward. His expression was surprisingly calm, and his tone was as gentle as his expression, as if everything was under his control.
What was surprising was that behind them, the Dragon Wing Army who were guarding the city every ten steps were not much different from the past. In fact, their numbers seemed to be even smaller, and there was no sense of tension on the eve of a great war at all.
At this moment, there were only a few trusted generals standing behind the general's flag. If it weren't for the calm look on the face of the man standing under the general's flag, people would have doubted whether the Ruoye tribe was going to give up resistance or was not prepared at all?
If anyone speculates that it is the latter, then they underestimate the courage and ability of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Long Yu of the Ruoye tribe!
After listening to Mu Feng's report, he had already figured out the Kongming tribe's plan . They deliberately placed their army eight hundred miles away to conceal their whereabouts. However, this distance of eight hundred miles is neither long nor short. Didn't Long Yu himself once travel a thousand miles and return in one day? The ability to travel a thousand miles is not a difficult task for the Kongming tribe who can control ancient beasts!
Therefore, their sneak attack tonight was already anticipated by Long Yu!
At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, and those emerald green eyes flashed with chilling murderous intent in the night! A faint blood-red ring mark slowly appeared between his eyebrows, and then a water-wave-like light floated out from his eyebrows and fell directly into his slightly opened palm. At this time, looking at his palm again, there was a scarlet sword!
Clouds and dragons are wandering on the rich and mellow crimson sword spine, with a magnificent aura. The long-accumulated sword energy shoots out in all directions, and the terrifying power is filled with brutal murderous intent.
"Your Highness, isn't this too risky?" After all, some people could not hold back. The expression of Zhongyu, the governor of Zhifangguan, who was also wearing silver black armor and black helmet, was not so relaxed. Although he had received your Highness's order to let most of the soldiers defending the city take turns to rest and wait for the life-and-death battle with the Kongming army tomorrow, Zhongyu was still hesitant about your Highness wanting to shoulder the heavy responsibility of dealing with this night attack.
It's not that he doesn't believe in His Highness's ability, but he is still a little worried about His Highness's risky behavior tonight. In his heart, His Highness is the future of the Ruoye tribe and there can be no room for any mistakes.
And it seems that he is not the only one who holds such an idea. Mu Feng and Li Ying beside him also stepped forward. Just as they were about to say something else, they were stopped by Long Yu's sudden raised gesture!
"No need to say more! I've made up my mind!" Before he finished speaking, Long Yu and the scarlet sword turned into a meteor, with a look of determination, and suddenly disappeared into the night sky!
Nangong Wulie looked at the prince who had turned into a beam of light and disappeared before his eyes. He sighed slightly in his heart, then his face turned stern and he turned around: "Leave this night attack to your Highness! You all go back to the camp to rest and prepare for the battle tomorrow!"
"General Nangong, why don't we wait here? It won't be too late to go back to the camp after His Highness returns safely..." Of course, some people were worried about Long Yu's safety. At this moment, His Highness was fighting for Yonghui City. How could they, as his subjects, go back and sleep peacefully?
"Don't you understand your highness's good intentions?" Nangong Wulie's voice suddenly rose: "Your highness took on the heavy responsibility of dealing with the night attack tonight so that the men can have a good rest. The main event will begin after tonight!"
"But..." Mu Feng seemed to want to say something else, but Cang Yun behind him secretly pulled him back, signaling him not to continue.
"I will stay here and wait for Your Highness to return! Your Highness is a genius, unparalleled in the world, and nothing will happen to him! There is no point in you staying here, go back to the camp quickly! Tomorrow, let those black-hearted bastards of the Kongming Clan see the strength of our Dragon Wing Army!" After these words came out, the young generals could not say anything more and took orders and left one after another. Only Zhongyu, the governor of the Zhifangguan, was left alone by General Nangong.
"Are you sure it's Feng Yan?" Nangong Wulie stood with his hands behind his back, his back to Zhong Yu, looking up in the direction where Long Yu had disappeared before.
"It should be... him." Zhong Yu looked at his back that blended into the darkness and felt a little scared.
"Where is he now?" After a while, Nangong Wulie let out a long sigh and turned around.
"I'm not sure. His Highness handled it personally." Zhong Yu shook his head and sighed, as if he simply didn't believe that Feng Yan, who had always been loyal to His Highness, would do such a treasonous thing.
"Even you don't know?" Nangong Wulie frowned, as if he didn't believe it. What does the Zhifangguan do? Isn't it just to deal with intelligence and internal thieves? How could they not know?
"After all, Feng Yan has followed His Highness for many years. His Highness... may want to save some dignity for him." Zhong Yu guessed General Nangong's intention, thinking that such a thing had happened in their Longyi Army, and General Nangong, as the commander, probably couldn't accept it in his heart.
"Alas, young man, you are so confused..." Nangong Wulie shook his head, turned around with a look of regret, and looked up at the sky. In the night sky in the northeast, a red light streaked across the sky! Nangong Wulie knew that His Highness's Blood-Condensed Sword had already seen blood!
At this time, in the night sky about five miles northeast of Yonghui City, a bloody battle had just begun!
The sound of "Fuxi Fuxi" that rose and fell in the night sky was so piercing that it made people's hair stand on end. The dark green eyes of the small strange duck birds were gleaming with evil. At this moment, they were swarming from the northwest in a strange flying style, threatening to block out the sky and the sun!
That little monster duck bird was huge, with a wingspan of more than ten feet. Its claws were extremely sharp, and when it grabbed and clenched, cold light flashed frequently. If an ordinary person encountered it, even a slight flick of its claws would tear its body into pieces and kill it on the spot!
And on the back of the little strange duck bird, there was a wizard from the Kongming tribe sitting, blending into the night from head to toe, in total darkness!
The faces of those wizards were painted with colorful totems, and they all held a three-inch long deadly green banner. On the green banner, the unique 'uI' totem of the Kongming tribe was glowing with a deep blue light, which looked even more hideous and weird in the night sky!
Their target, of course, was Yonghui City! Relying on the ability of these little ducks to travel a thousand miles a day, the leader of the Kongming tribe, Yan Zhu, actually invested heavily in this night attack, and mobilized 3,000 Kongming tribe wizards to participate in this operation. The purpose was obvious, which was to kill Yonghui City by surprise! Although they did not expect to capture Yonghui City in one fell swoop, they also wanted to disturb Yonghui City and dampen their morale, so as to gain a favorable advantage for tomorrow's siege battle!
It’s a pity that this wishful thinking is not so easy to carry out!
I saw a silver light bursting out from Yonghui City, and then the people at the front of the night attack team and their mounts were all killed silently in an instant!
Everything happened in just a moment. Before those Kongming wizards could even react to what was happening, they were already buried in this foreign land!
Only the man who looked like the leader at the front managed to escape by chance. The Kongming clan wizard Fantian, who had a pair of deep blue eyes like an 'uI', felt a murderous aura in an instant. He hurriedly waved the green flag in his hand, quickly drawing a green barrier in the night sky, and only then did he escape!
Such a strong murderous aura! Although he was lucky enough to escape this disaster, he still felt a little nervous when he thought of the sword that came through the air like a ghost!
There is such a master in the Ruoye tribe!
At this time, Brahma finally realized that the Ruoye tribe had been prepared. However, what he couldn't understand was that if they knew they would come to attack at night, why was there only one person? Was there a trap behind this?
However, the Yonghui City in the distance was peaceful, as if nothing had happened! What was going on? Did the other party really only send this one person? If so, the Ruoye tribe was too arrogant, right? They actually didn't take them seriously!
Brahma was suddenly filled with indescribable anger at being looked down upon. However, if he knew that the one who came to reap their lives was Long Yu, the prince of the Ruoye tribe, and that he could witness the strength of the Ruoye tribe's 'Blue Sea Dragon Lotus' that had dominated the Void Realm for five hundred years in his lifetime, he would not know whether he should feel a little honored.
Or, perhaps they would temporarily change their strategy, abandon Yonghui City, and try to capture Long Yu alive?
