Chapter 153 - Defeat After Defeat
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Before long, hundreds of Empire army soldiers had been beaten back.
At this point, Sano seemed to sense that something was wrong.
However, he was still unwilling to accept what seemed to be happening.
Sano then went crazy and charged toward the frontline of the unknown troops of the Lieluo Army.
However, just as he arrived at the frontline…
A Nameless Army soldier shot out a fierce flame slash in his direction.
Sano had not realized that the Nameless Army soldiers of the Lieluo Army could produce such power.
He then suffered a fierce blow which caused Sano to fall off his horse.
Dali noticed Sano, who had fallen off his horse, then shouted at the soldiers.
“Soldiers, listen up! Capture Sano alive and we will reward you handsomely!”
The soldiers of the Lieluo Army became excited when they heard Dali’s words.
Sano who had fallen off his horse also started to panic when he heard Dali’s words.
This was a feeling Sano had never experienced in his life.
In the past, he had always been proud of himself.
He loved to make the people around him feel a sense of fear.
However, today, it was he who had become the fish on the chopping board instead.
Sano scrambled to his horse in a panic, hoping to get out of this dangerous area as quickly as possible.
Currently, Sano also found that his Magic Army seemed to be completely useless against the Nameless troops of the Lieluo Army.
He was extremely vulnerable to being slaughtered on the battlefield.
Seeing this, Sano hurriedly got on his horse and sped away.
He kept muttering.
“Cover! Quickly cover!”
However, all the soldiers of the Lieluo Army were in high spirits at this moment.
Everyone was eager to capture Sano.
The fat meat in front of them was about to be in their hands, especially if they could let him escape at this time.
Thus, the dark mass of one hundred thousand magic soldiers appeared to be retreating in defeat.
Rowe and the others who were standing at the city gate were overjoyed when they saw this scene.
“I can’t believe that Sano is having such a day! Hahaha!” Rowe laughed.
Romon recalled the humiliation that day at the center of the Empire and the countless days and nights of his hatred for the Empire.
When they saw Sano flee, everyone’s mood became extremely happy.
Lecter even happily sang a song as he stood on the city wall.
Then, he looked at the battlefield.
Currently, the Magic Army on the battlefield had already started showing a declining trend.
As the soldiers of the Lieluo Army continued to rampage on the battlefield, along with countless Magic Army soldiers of the fallen Empire.
This battle was finally coming to an end.
When all the soldiers of the Lieluo Army had driven the Magic Army to the Miracle Forest, Dali gave an order.
“Stop chasing! Let’s clean up the battlefield! We are going back!”
Hearing Dali’s words, all the soldiers of the Nameless Army who were still alive began to clean up the battlefield.
After a while.
The remaining Lieluo soldiers returned with their spoils of war.
“Report! In this battle, thirty of the Nameless Army were killed and injured, while the number of Magic Army soldiers who were wiped out reached thirty-four thousand eight hundred and sixty people!”
Following the report of one of the soldiers, Dali and Sifusco’s faces were filled with smiles.
When Rowe and Romon, who were standing at the side, heard this number, their faces started to light up with smiles as well.
Dali looked at Rowe at this time, hoping that Rowe could give the remaining instructions.
Rowe clearly understood the meaning behind Dali’s gaze.
He then opened his mouth to speak.
“Everyone has worked hard! After two months of hard training, everyone’s results are starting to show results! I’m very pleased!
“So we’ve decided to give everyone a three-day break to let everyone have a good rest. After that, we’ll continue to conquer the Empire!”
Upon hearing Rowe’s words, all the soldiers began to cheer and jump in joy.
“That’s great! We can finally take a break!”
Many of the soldiers sighed.
Rowe gave the people beside him meaningful looks. Then, they understood what Rowe meant.
…
In the administrative building, Rowe, Romon, Dali, Sifusco, Lecter, and Mike gathered once again.
Rowe addressed the group once again.
“We have already achieved victory in the first all-out war against the Empire. Now, what should we do next? Does anyone have any good ideas?”
Lecter immediately spoke after hearing Rowe’s words.
“Leader! I think we should take advantage of this victory to pursue our attack! I know Sano very well. He is extremely sinister and vicious!”
“Today, the Lieluo Army has also given a big blow to the Empire. Sano must be furious from embarrassment. I think he must be in the center of the Empire right now, strongly reprimanding his subordinates!”
“And this time, his assassin army had yet to make an appearance. I’m afraid that in the future, not only will we encounter a large number of assassins, but now we can only take advantage of our victory to pursue them! Only then can we truly the Empire hard!”
After hearing Lecter’s words, Rowe spoke up.
“What you said does make sense, but now that I’ve promised the soldiers that I’ll be giving them three days off, what should we do?”
Following that, Sifusco spoke up.
“Leader, I don’t think these three days can be considered as giving the Empire a chance to catch their breath.”
“What do you mean?” Rowe asked.
When Sifusco saw this, he said, “During these three days, we can fully deploy all the security measures in Lecter City. During these three days, we must completely ban all movement outside and inside the city.”
“Ban everyone from leaving the city, and also ban people outside the city from entering the city. What City Lord Lecter said is very reasonable. Sano’s assassination army hasn’t appeared yet. I think that before this war started, Sano had never thought that he would lose!
“That’s why he’s like this!”
After hearing that, Rowe fell into deep thought.
Then, he spoke.
“If we raise our vigilance, I think we can do it. But if we want to implement the policy of sealing the city, I think that the people in the city probably won’t agree!”
“If that’s really the case, then….”
