Chapter Thirty - Command
…………
Archmond looked at his soldiers retreating across the board. A large number of demon soldiers were stained with blood, dead under the elves' weapons, or torn to pieces by the night elves' mounts. Under the tenacity of the Black Crow Fortress defenders, the demon's counterattack did not seem to have been achieved as expected.
Archmond saw all this, but he was not furious, but smiled. Ravenkes was dead, and the muscular green-skinned warrior and the agile dead man were also elsewhere. Archmond admired the orc's primitive brute force and Nathanos' cunning.
"It's time..." he hissed.
Garod was still trying to summon everyone who could participate in the battle, but now the troops in the fortress are really short of strength, and deserters have appeared.
But Garod still did not give up: "Everyone! Move! For Kalimdo!"
At this time, a sound came from his ear, which attracted his attention. The sound made Garod think of the scene when he went over to observe flocks of birds falling on the trees. The sound of many wings waving in the air was endless.
He looked up.
A dark Doomsday Guard appeared in the sky.
“Eluen is on!”
Each Doomsday Guard held a bulky jar, and smoke came out from time to time. Those jars were not small and were not light in weight, and the night elves couldn't handle them at all. Even Doomsday Guard seemed a little difficult, and holding them seemed to have exhausted their strength.
Gallard Shadow Ge looked at the group of demons and saw them flying towards the guard elves in front at full speed... and then flew to the center of the team. Fierce battles on the ground were in full swing, and many people might not have noticed the demons in the air at all. The same is true for Desdale Star Eyes.
It should be reported to Star Eye immediately: Galaude has the only option now. Ravenkes is no longer there, and no one else can count on.
Captain Galold jumped onto his mount, a Night Blade Leopard named Bud, and ran towards the direction he had last seen the Star Eye Flag. Shortly after he left his original position, the Doomsday Guard in front suddenly hovered over the elves. The Captain saw a Doomsday Guard begin to dump the cans.
The boiling green liquid poured on the heads of the unprepared soldier.
They screamed loudly. The soldiers who were splashed with deadly liquid fell to the ground and twisted it into a ball. This jar of liquid could burn more than a dozen night elves seriously, get disabled, and some even kill them on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, other winged demons also poured over the jar in their hands. For a moment, the evil power fell from the sky like a heavy rain and fell on the guards.
The soldiers ran away with their heads in their arms and were exhausted from escaping. The entire team was in chaos and defeated. They could face the enemy's claws and blades, because these threats could be repelled with weapons, but they had no choice but to face the behavior of the Doomsday Guard.
Gallard urged the mount to rush away, and screams of pain came from time to time in his ears. Soon he saw the banner of Desdale Star Eyes, and not long after, he saw the leader himself.
The scene in front of him left Garod with no fighting spirit, and he stood on the back of the mount. Desdale Star-eyed eyes sat upright on the mount, as if dead. He watched his grand combat plan completely disappear, but could not think of any action to turn the situation around. The subordinates and guards surrounded him and looked at their command palace helplessly. Garod saw no hope on their faces.
The captain of the guard rode the Night Blade and passed by the guard and a nobleman, and his hands trembled toward the commander: "Sir! Please take action! We must destroy those demons!"
"It's too late, too late!" Xingyan mumbled, looking away, "We're done! Everything is finished!"
"Master Commander!" Garod looked into the sky instinctively.
Two demons were hovering above their heads, holding a can of venom in their arms.
Gallard grabbed the nobleman's arm and shouted: "Danger, leave here!"
Star Eye's expression became a little bit tucked, and he threw his arm away with contempt. "Let me go! Who do you think of yourself, Galord!"
Gallard stared at Star Eye in disbelief: "Commander, here is dangerous!"
"Get out of here or you'll be locked up!"
Garod cursed, knowing that he could no longer convince the guy to leave, then shook the reins and drove away the mount.
He left at the right time.
In the blink of an eye, a large area of evil energy suddenly poured on Xingyan and the people around him. The evil energy easily melted the metal armor and burned the skin. A sharp pain was pierced, and the Night Blade of Xingyan suddenly threw the master's hissing body out. Xingyan fell to the ground, and his proud face was now twisted and deformed by fear, which was difficult to identify. His subordinates and guards were in extremely miserable. Those who had not died kept twitching on the ground, their bodies were unrecognizable, and screaming in a chilling way.
Gallard couldn't help them.
The Doomsday Guards were flying in the air, and the guards posed almost no threat to them. Only sporadic feather arrows shot out from the ground, shooting down several Doomsday Guards, and some were killed by the Moon Guards, but the overall strength of the troops was not exerted. Garod was surprised by the disintegration of the army and the weak organization, and he couldn't help but remember that Xingyan had already replaced all the military palaces under the former commander with his confidants.
Not long after, Gallard was surprised to find that some of the night elves' troops were on standby. They were waiting anxiously, waiting for the latest possible instructions.
‘What’s going on? Now it’s time to use people, why are there still people still standing there?’
The captain of the guard rushed to the people, "What are you doing? What are you doing? Can't you see the demons slaughtering our brothers and sisters?"
"We are waiting for Lord Desdale's order, Captain." One of the elves replied. Gallard knew that they did not know the commander's death, and thought that Lord Noble would summon them at any time.
"How many archers are there in this army?" Gallard asked.
"Does, Captain of the Guard!"
It's far from enough, but it's better than nothing. "Let the archers be ready! Others are responsible for protecting! Aim at those doomsday guards! Bring them down!"
The officer immediately issued an order. Garod looked around eagerly, looking for something that could be used as a weapon. At this time, a man drove his mount to him quickly. He saluted Garod, and his salute made Garod feel that he was the supreme commander.
"The wall on the east has been broken, and we can't stand it anymore!" He said, pointing to a place behind him near the middle. "The commander in charge of the defense there sent me to seek reinforcements!"
He ordered the officer: "Go to Surama! Go to the great mage Elisand, and ask her to send reinforcements to support him." Garod remembered something again, and then said: "It is better to be the mage unit and the archers."
After Garod finished speaking, the other party's expression relaxed a little and he took the order and left. Before Garod could clear his thoughts, two more people rushed over. Seeing this, the captain of the guard guessed that people saw that he had been organizing forces to fight back, so some people mistakenly thought that he was commanding the troops in the name of Desdale Star Eye.
Although Galade was not a commander, he could not ignore them. He listened carefully to their needs and tried to come up with a temporary solution.
To his surprise, another moon guard rushed to him. Although he was a high-level mage, the moon guard in a robe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Captain Yingge.
"The archers effectively curbed the attacks of those winged demons. Although there were many casualties, we reorganized our strength. We were working hard to deal with the guys in the sky, so we needed more protection!"
Garod tried not to swallow his saliva. He did not want the mage to see his uneasiness, so he pretended to look at the left-wing troops in the distance. He saw that there were several rows of soldiers there crowded together to fight the coming demons. The soldiers in front were crowded together, while the people behind could not be used. Under the push and collision of the people behind, many of the earth soldiers in front died tragically under the enemy's blade.
