Chapter 508: Guarding

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

A cold wind blew past, bringing with it the s in the sky The pitter-patter of rainfall had zero sense of roround and damp weather only served to drain everyone’s stamina Evidently, the weather conditions were quite beneficial for the undead, who knew no fatigue

“Target is approaching the second defense line”

“Has everyone retreated? How many people are left at the first defense line?”

“Two teams were unable to retreat in tiht protect them How’s the situation at the second defense line?”

“Not so good It’s a temporarily constructed defensive blockade that can only buy so in Every sudden battle that occurred always brought very little good news, but endless amounts of bad news

Despite all the bad news, there was one piece of good news froht more than three thousand members of the Cliff heavy infantry squadron here with him With normal military formations here, that was an elite heavy infantry squadron sufficient to create three large troops The three troops were split into three different eight-hour shi+fts to guard the path to the mountains They had even constructed a te the area

When the undead arrived, the Cliff squadron’s base and patrol route naturally becaainst the undead However, nobody was counting on them to actually stop the undead

When Salinore the Cliff squadron that was originally enemies with her Instead, she sent out troops to save the that as many of theht now, every person is fighting for the living As long as we can save them, we’ll save them at all costs!”

The Cliff squadron’s vice commander, Sandy, was a very tall ht now, he could only helplessly take orders from his “enemy”

The moment the Undead Emperor descended, Sala Dukedoless In front of the Undead Cala, there was no more differences between those loyal to the Sala royalty and those loyal to the rebel Marquis Stanley Taric Everyone was now on the side of the living

Sandy was no idiot He knew that if even if he escaped from the undead, just the fact that Prince Link had been assassinated would likely uard Prince Link Right now, Sandy’s best path to survival was to achieve more battle accomplishments

Of course, the prerequisite here was that the living actually won this battle Otherwise, there would be no more Sala Dukedom, and no more royalty to blame Sandy for Link’s death

Meanwhile, my opinion was that despite Blood Spear Sali survivors, she was indeed quite skilled Judging fro to make any sacrifice to win

To arrive here from the ruins, the undead would have to first travel across thewhile And so, Salima sent out a suicide squad to set bombs on portions of the mountain trail, and set numerous lines of defense to slon the undead’s arrival

Any ar speed would always be determined by the slowest type of troop with them The undead weren’t very quick, as ordinary skeleton troops were their base unit Plus, they had to climb the mountain on such a wet and rainy day, which slowed them down even more

Mudslides created by bo down any are in speed, this only served to slow them down even more

However, even if the suicide squads were lucky enough to explode the portions of thebone dragons and death knights meant that very few of these brave warriors would survive and return

In order to unify everyone in Starwood City’s new temporary command center under herself, Salima sent out only her personal troops on these suicide missions This was so that there would be no more internal conflicts at such a critical junction

“Working her hardest to save the current allies ere just recently her greatest ene her own loyal soldiers on suicide , however, this would be the utmost foolishness Yet, it was a truly wise leadershi+pconsisting of two sides that were at war not long ago At the very least, Salie of a fair and just leader that everyone illing to follow

Perhaps this didn’t see that still had many internal conflicts with each other, but this was stilla “bastard who tells others to take suicide e of the situation to spread salt on people’s wounds”

“This Salis?”

“Nope She’s only a general in such a small country How could she possibly be on the fairies’ rankings? What, you think she’s pretty good?”

“…I think she ht, I was quite impressed with this Blood Spear Salima It would seem that others had underestimated her abilities

To tell the truth, even I wasn’t confident in doing better than her here At the very least, I wasn’t the type ould send out ht not even succeed but would almost certainly kill them

And if I had to choose between my friends and my enely choose to have my friends live even if my friends weren’t as numerous I was no saint, after all I’d never denied that I hadoff topic All these sacrifices were simply to stall for time And time was always the most valuable treasure of all on the battlefield Since Salima could make such a decision to sacrifice her personal troops in order to save her previous enemies, the Cliff squad, this meant that her leadershi+p capabilities were definitely above average

“Hurry, hurry! Are there no es? Even scrolls or staffs are fine, solidify the toalls for y No matter how much money you have, you have to be alive to spend it Use every earth ic scroll you own!

This is no tie had just atte a large hole with an explosion instead The h I understood that novices would alwaysthumbs up with how creative he was to use a fireball rather than a small flame to bake the walls Of course, others weren’t nearly as patient
