Chapter 507 Willing to Fight to the Death

Chapter 507 Willing to Fight to the Death

At night, on the bed.

The girl's hair became even more red under the candlelight. She tilted her head slightly and said, "Husband, a few days ago..."

"That was a suggestion given to me by a guy who thought he was smart. I couldn't have imagined these formalities."

Lu Chen knew what Eriki was asking, so he smiled reluctantly, "Don't worry, this battle can't be fought only by us humans."

After the failure of the arrival of the Lord of the Abyss, Abyss regrouped and was obviously ready to start taking action.

An offensive of this scale would have been a struggle even when the Great Wall Army was still intact, let alone now.

The only good news is that Abyss did not attack the other two passes in the last battle. Otherwise, even if he could hold it, other areas of the Great Wall would surely fall.

His feeling about the abyss now is that the creatures in the abyss seem to be... worthless to them.

Sending abyssal creatures to attack Lishang Pass is like a joke. They can consume human life force at will, and breaching the Great Wall is the next best thing.

As long as the Abyss continues to fight like this, the human race's army will be exhausted sooner or later. Before reaching other races, the Keya Empire will let them run wild.

And Lu Chen also vaguely felt that the Lord of the Abyss had not given up on breaking through the barriers and coming to this world.

He contacted Fox and wrote a letter to the Orc King, but there was no reply yet regarding reinforcements.

The dwarves sent a batch of new equipment a few days ago, but did not send troops.

Perhaps it is because the five hundred years of the human race are coming to an end, or perhaps because Duke Godzilla is strong and can hold on, and other races have not made any moves yet.

The elves were relatively friendly to Lu Chen, but they still had strong objections to humans, and it was unrealistic for them to send troops.

In the last war, the Moon Wolf tribe also lost hundreds of Moon wolves, telling the story of the unreasonable and cruel nature of the war.

With the arrival of new soldiers, the overall number of defenders on the Great Wall has returned to two million, but their combat effectiveness has not increased much.

His talent awakening mission also ushered in the final stage. Unexpectedly, it was not too difficult. It was just an advanced version of the second stage. It was simple and crude and required him to kill five abyss overlords.

He had looked up information about talent awakening in space, and it seemed that the content of the mission had a certain relationship with the awakened talent characteristics. He became more and more curious about what talent he would awaken.

…………

More than a month has passed, and the Great Wall has experienced several wars, large and small, and the number of soldiers has been greatly reduced again. No matter how the Keya Empire replenishes the troops, the number of soldiers will hardly exceed one million.

New people replace old people, new people replace new people, and the forest of steles behind Wangyue Slope becomes wider and wider.

The soldiers at the Great Wall also became more and more silent, with few smiles.

Spring was warm and the flowers were blooming. Lu Chen and Hui Liyi were walking outside Linbei City, sitting by the fields and looking at the crops that were growing happily.

An old man wiped his sweat with a towel after working. He walked to the roadside, scooped up some water with a ladle and drank it. He looked at Lu Chen and Eri Yi who were sitting on the roadside.

"May I ask which young master and young lady you are from? Are you going on a spring outing?"

The old man is obviously a talkative. When he sees someone during his break, he can't help but strike up a conversation.

Mainly because he felt that the young man and woman had been looking at him here for a long time. The girl had a gentle temperament and did not look like a very unruly noble.

Lu Chen smiled. He was wearing white clothes today, and he and Eri Yi were pretending to be a couple. "It's just a leisurely stroll in the spring. Old sir, I see that you have been busy all morning, so you are just taking a break. You are not afraid of being exhausted." Body?"

The old man smiled and waved his hand, "I am just an ordinary old farmer, but I cannot be called sir. As for this young master, you are looking down on me, old man."

The old man took another sip of water and sat on the steps connecting the ground and the edge of the field. "Don't look at me, old man. I am old and strong. The new seeds your Majesty has given me are good. They grow fast and have high yields. Old man, I feel It’s like a dream. If you still get the land, your own land, if you don’t work harder, how can you do it?”

"Is there anyone else in your family? Are you the only one who takes care of such a big land?"

Lu Chen asked.

The old man sighed: "There is a little granddaughter at home, and she is too weak to do any work. Old man, I have to work hard to raise her. How can I save a dowry for her?"

As he spoke, he muttered to himself: "I originally had a son, but my son joined the army and went to the Great Wall. Now that he's gone... Alas, the old man and my granddaughter are the only ones left in the family."

"Condolences."

Lu Chen said slowly.

The old man shook his head, "Oh, it's all destiny. That kid has always envied those military lords. After the northern border was invaded by abyssal creatures, he made up his mind and said he would defend his family and country. I don't agree with him. Yes, a few months ago, when I got the news of his death, the old man didn't dare to tell his granddaughter, he just hid in the kitchen and cried all night."

"Hate?"

"Hate? Who do you hate?"

The old man looked at the sky, "When it comes to abyssal creatures, everyone hates and fears them. In fact, the old man has no real feelings now. Do you hate His Majesty for recruiting troops and using them poorly? But everyone knows that the Great Wall has insufficient troops, and His Majesty is the leader of the world. One of the most outstanding generals, let alone hating His Majesty, that would be too heartless. He is a virtuous king who is hard to find even in history."

"Not only have these good seeds been given to the people, they have also exempted us from taxes in the north. Now the old man, I am raising a granddaughter by myself. Although I am a little tired, the days are getting better and better. There is hope, there is hope."

"Besides, our Majesty is brave, he leads the troops to conquer personally, and as the monarch of a country, he does not sit quietly in the capital, but eats and sleeps on the Great Wall with the soldiers. For this alone, we admire him."

As he spoke, the old man changed his voice and said, "Oh, it's a pity. I heard that the abyss is getting stronger and stronger. Many young children die every month. I don't know when it will end. Other races don't know how to reach the end." Give me a hand, don’t you know that the Great Wall actually belongs to everyone?”

Lu Chen nodded, "Maybe they all know it in their hearts, they just feel they are at a loss."

"Loss? Haha..."

The old man smiled a little sadly, "That's right, we agreed that one family would guard it for five hundred years, and no one wanted to contribute more and more people would die. The dwarves only helped once, alas."

Lu Chen and Eri Yi felt the spring breeze blowing and looked at the undulating fields.

The old man stood up and prepared to work for a while, "You still have to work harder. My granddaughter has wanted to go to the Wangli Academy of Magic in the mainland since she was a child. The travel expenses and tuition fees will kill her."

"Oh? It seems that not everyone can learn magic, right?"

Lu Chen looked curious.

"Isn't that true? We don't understand, but there was a magician who passed by before and said that my granddaughter has some talents. At that time, my son was unwilling and had no money. He couldn't even fill his stomach, so he didn't expect anything like that."

The old man looked proud when he mentioned that his granddaughter had the talent of being a mage. He heard that it was a talent that was only one in a million, and very few humans could use magic.

He took another sip of water and put the towel around his neck. "You two, let's not talk anymore. Old man, I have to continue working. You can walk to the east. The scenery is nice over there."

Lu Chen pulled Eri Yi up and put a letter with a wax seal on the old man's wooden cart. When he turned around, he said, "The old man can take this letter to the consul of Linbei City and he will arrange it." of."

The old man paused, a little confused, put down the farm tools in his hands, walked back two steps, wiped his hands on his clothes twice, carefully picked up the letter on the wooden cart, and saw the wax seal on it. mark, stunned.

It was the head of a roaring lion.

His hands were trembling a little, and he was crying. He knelt on the ground and said in a dry voice, "My son, did you go...peacefully?"

Lu Chen paused in his steps and did not look back, "... very brave."

On the battlefield with the abyss, there is no such thing as a peaceful death.

…………

The abyss's offensive is fierce and endless, and the human race continues to recruit troops, causing countless casualties.

This was the darkest period in the history of the Keya Empire. Some people signed up to join the army, while others changed their minds after hearing the conscription order.

The iron walls of the Great Wall were made of human blood and tears.

All ethnic groups see it in their eyes, but wonder if they remember it in their hearts.

The suffering of the human race is not due to famine or military service, but only to the seemingly endless blood and tears on the front line.

On the seventh day of April, Abyss launched another large-scale attack. It was an even stronger force than the last time they breached the Great Wall, an army of 50 million!

The remnant troops of the Great Wall are mixed, more than 1.3 million people.

In the square on the inner wall, the soldiers all looked resolute, and they all felt enlightened when they looked at the figure under the banner of the Lion King.

The King of Heroes is in front of us and will fight to the death. How can we retreat?

Lu Chen stood on the top of the city and looked at the young faces of the soldiers below.

He had only recently understood that, let alone leading an army into the abyss, they seemed to be unable to even protect themselves.

The army mobilized and everyone took their positions. Lu Chen landed in front of Lishang Pass, "Soldiers of the Great Wall..."

There was no mobilization, only two words, like a roar to the sky, "Fight to the death!"

The soldiers raised their swords and their voices echoed through the sky.

"Fight to the death!"

The white dress at the top of the city looked as if she were wearing plain clothes. The horns were blowing and the war drums were beating.

The battle is about to begin, and the sky will fall like stars.

A figure came from the east and landed heavily beside Lu Chen, stirring up sand and gravel.

He is short and stout, with a red beard fluttering in the wind. He holds two heavy hammers and has a solemn expression. "The red beard of the dwarves is willing to fight to the death with the King of Heroes!"

boom--

Another figure, also falling from the eastern sky, was tall, with golden mane shining in the sun, holding a bloody giant axe, majestic and imposing.

He grinned and said, "The Orc King Bailon is willing to fight to the death with the Hero King!"

At the same time, Lu Chen heard the roar of the earth coming from the east. It was an army, an extremely large army!

Bai Long put his hand on Lu Chen's shoulder, "Didn't you agree to come to me for a drink? You became the king, but you disappeared."

Lu Chen also smiled, "After this battle, let's have a good drink."

Fox didn't notify him, and the dwarves didn't notify him, but their army came through the Aisir Forest.

"Are you going to let my daughter play the drums?"

A clear voice sounded, and Lu Chen looked up and saw the legion coming from the eastern sky, like stars.

One hundred thousand... Moon Attendant Elf.

"Mother!"

Eryi was a little surprised to see the Elf Queen. She didn't expect that the Elf clan, which had always been at odds with the human race, would actually send troops at this time.

"Report——"

The scouts on the city wall came to report, "Outside the inner city... 800,000 giant rhinoceros cavalry from the orc tribe have arrived!"

"Report - the dwarves' millions of heavy infantry have arrived!"

Lu Chen heard this number and looked at Elder Chixu and Bailong.

Elder Chisu stroked his red beard, which was tied into a whip, "Old friends, you have resisted for long enough. This is a common thing in the Aika continent."

Bailon smiled boldly and said: "I'm just here to fulfill my previous agreement. After this battle, our orcs will no longer owe the humans any more."

Elf Queen Lilith landed at the top of the city, touched Hui Liyi's hair, and looked at Lu Chen who was at the bottom of the city, "Where is the promised wedding of the century? You said you would wait until the war on the Great Wall ends. How long should we, Dakosi, wait until? ?”

The accusatory tone made Lu Chen a little embarrassed. In theory, judging from Abyss's offensive, they might have no chance in this world.

But Lilith changed her tone again, "So we are here to help you fight! As the hero king of the human race, are you ready for the betrothal gift?"

Lu Chen placed the Regicide in front of him and smiled casually, "Fifty million Abyss heads...are they enough?"

Lilith was stunned for a moment. She didn't know what others thought, but she felt that as her son-in-law, she didn't understand what girls wanted at all. Do you think you are very romantic?

However, in this serious scene, it was not easy for her to cause trouble...

The abyssal army pressed down for nearly twenty miles, and when Lu Chen was about to start re-arranging the coalition forces, it became dark.

Those are the dragon wings that cover the sky and the sun.

The defenders on the Great Wall looked at the sky with excited expressions. In their field of vision, there were more than three hundred... giant dragons!

The leader Alex's voice spread across the battlefield, "Dragon Valley is willing to follow the King of Heroes...to fight to the death!"

The human soldiers on the Great Wall pursed their lips tightly, the blood in their hearts burning.

They resisted for too long and lost too many of their brothers, Paoze, before they finally received reinforcements from all races.

Among the army of the abyss, five giant-like creatures with a height of more than ten meters stood out, each wearing a bloody armor, and their majesty was overwhelming...the Overlord of the Abyss.

One of the Abyss Overlords stepped forward, riding a huge bloody beast on his crotch, holding a spear over twenty meters long, pointing at the Great Wall, and mouthing human words.

"It's really nostalgic. It reminds me of the battle of thousands of armies thousands of years ago."

Alex in the air looked at the Abyss Overlord, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then turned into shock.

The representative leaders of various ethnic groups around Lu Chen took half a step back.

Bailon said: "This is the era when you humans were guarding the Great Wall. We orcs were just passing by. As the supreme commander, you should give the order."

Elder Chixu gave a friendly reminder: "There are hundreds of mountain giants from our dwarf tribe here this time."

Lilith is more direct. Humans don't know magic, so she has to rely on her own judgment and let one hundred thousand moon servants fall on the city. The moon servants are divided into three batches, one is responsible for treatment, one is responsible for barrier defense, and the last batch Responsible for the chanting of offensive forbidden spells.

The city gate opened wide, and the Sword of Dawn was the first to emerge. Lu Chen turned over and mounted Anarius, moving forward to form a formation.

Then came the giant rhinoceros cavalry of the orcs. The ground trembled when they passed by. These giant rhinos were carefully trained war beasts by the orcs. Eight hundred thousand was the limit for the orcs. They were invincible in a frontal charge on the battlefield.

When the heavy infantry of the dwarves passed by, the mountain giants seemed a little aggrieved. Although the Great Wall was built with consideration for various races, the mountain giants who were nearly fifty meters tall were still too tall and had to squat half-crouch to pass.

Commander Lu Chen's Dawn Sword was in front of the formation, and above his head, a group of dragons flew through the sky.

Warm light fell on him, and it was Eriyi's Divine Blessing and other buffs that came up. The fighting spirit in his body burned, the word spirit and violent blood were turned on, and the regicide pointed at the abyss army in the north.

This battle will determine the north!
