Chapter 653: The Fear From Loyes and the Retreat of the Church of Poseidon
"According to the news sent back."
"The current attack is going very smoothly."
"The legion attacking the branch city encountered only a few giants blocking it."
"It won't be long before my legion can reach the city."
In the base of Yueqiu.
The several lords who initiated the war are reporting the good news to each other.
"I didn't expect it to be so smooth. I thought Fang Yuan would deploy heavy troops in the branch city in the south."
"But I didn't expect that there were only some giants."
"The branch city should be level 10. Fang Yuan must have been careless."
"From the history of its rise, it has almost won battles in a row and has never been defeated."
"In addition, its current war in the West Coast Plain is advancing at a very fast speed."
"The legion of Poseidon City lost two lines of defense in two days, and even the base on the sea was breached."
"Fang Yuan's army has surrounded Poseidon City."
"Victory is almost a foregone conclusion."
"At this time, how could he have thought that someone would suddenly cross the mountains and sneak attack its hinterland."
"This is just too arrogant, thinking that after fighting a few battles in the marginal area, "Just because you are a low-level force, you think you are invincible."
"You are just a frog in a well."
"When it comes to war, we have to look at Middle-earth!"
"Well, that's not the case. Fang Yuan still has a certain strength."
"It's inevitable that he panicked for a while."
"But the price he paid for this failure will be extremely heavy."
"Not to mention that all efforts will be ruined, at least the territory of the force will shrink by 2/3."
"That's a must. Our 150,000 orange legions are just the vanguard."
"Once we take over the branch city and build a teleportation array, we can dispatch more troops."
"This time, we must destroy its rule in Gondor."
"I'm afraid Fang Yuan has fallen into confusion and shock now."
"I guess They must have started to mobilize the troops."
"Mobilize the troops, so what?"
"There is not enough time. It is impossible to mobilize the army so quickly."
"Not to mention whether we can immediately mobilize so many supporting legions. Even if we can, it will take time to transport them."
"By the time we gather the legions and prepare to transport them, we have already captured the castle of the branch city and cut off the teleportation array."
"Haha, if we take the branch city, we will have a stable foothold."
"The next step is to rush into the heart of Gondor and divide the north and south into two."
"I heard that Gondor's resource points are now only purple and orange."
"Everyone rush in to grab them."
"Wouldn't it be a windfall?"
"Your vision is just so big."
" How much money do we have to rob resource points?"
"Go directly to rob Fang Yuan's alliance in the south, which was once the Purple Sky Alliance."
"The materials in its warehouse are definitely not less than 10 billion."
"You are a bit extreme!"
"But I like it~"
"I think it's too early for everyone to be happy."
"Plunder is for the future."
"At present, we still need to quickly organize the second wave of legions in the territory."
"Be prepared to resist Fang Yuan's counterattack."
"After he finds out that Gondor has been attacked, he will definitely dispatch the army outside the Sea God City to rescue."
"That's right."
"If he dispatches a large army to rescue, we will not sit idly by."
"Why don't we gather a group of 500,000 heavy armored cavalry."
"Let's ambush."
"Kill his legions that are preparing to rescue." "
At this time.
The entire territory of the Moon Hill Base was cheering for the victory of the branch city.
They had even begun to prepare for the second wave of attack.
But in this noisy hall.
Some people frowned.
There was a puzzled look on their faces.
The leader of the Sea God Church paced back and forth in the hall.
At the same time, he kept asking.
"How is it?"
"No news yet?"
Compared to the smooth progress of these mercenaries in the branch city.
The 150,000 troops of their Sea God Church, however, had no news.
The leader of the Sea God Church was also extremely anxious.
"Is there no news from the army attacking the castle?"
He even asked twice in a row.
The people of the Sea God Church shook their heads after checking.
"Leader, not yet."
"It shouldn't be. About an hour ago, our army arrived at the outskirts of the castle."
"According to reconnaissance, the garrison in this castle is less than 5,000. "
"How come after an hour of attacking a castle that is not heavily guarded, there is still no news?"
The lord from Middle-earth heard the conversation of the Church of Poseidon.
Someone asked immediately.
"Did you not bring siege equipment?"
"The news we sent back."
"The resistance in Fangyuan City is still very fierce."
"The previous waves of charge were all blocked by the enemy desperately."
"The equipment loss is also relatively large."
"If it weren't for the modified goblin airship and many siege equipment."
"We wouldn't have been able to break the city so quickly!"
The leader of the Sea God Church shook his head.
"No."
"In order to break the city quickly."
"This time I emptied more than half of the church's funds."
"Not to mention the modified goblin airship."
"I even brought no less than three high-level earth-based siege magic scrolls."
"Not to mention those worthless siege ladders."
"At the normal speed, 150,000 orange legions will attack such a castle with all their strength."
"There should have been news a long time ago."
Hearing this, all the lords present had an idea.
Soon someone said.
"That means something is not normal."
"Something unexpected has happened!"
The leader of the Seagod Church also had a bad feeling.
"Not necessarily."
"Someone come~"
But he quickly waved his hand again.
"Forget it."
"It would take too much time to go back and forth to investigate now."
"It seems that this is the only way to use it!"
The leader of the Seagod Church took out a scroll.
He tore it open without hesitation.
Suddenly, a stream of water emerged from the ground.
A clear spring was formed.
"Coordinates!"
"Gondor West Coast Passage Castle."
"I want to see everything that happens over there."
The voice fell.
The calm spring began to shake.
It seemed that a picture began to appear vaguely.
This magical scene attracted the exclamation of the Middle-earth mercenary lord on the side.
"Advanced water scroll."
"Mirror spell."
"Can monitor the scene thousands of miles away."
"I didn't expect you to get such a rare scroll."
The leader of the Sea God Church seemed to be oblivious to the exclamations around him.
He frowned and looked at the water surface that was calming down little by little.
At this time, in the water surface.
The scene of the monitored area gradually appeared.
But when it was fully displayed.
Suddenly!
A terrified cry came.
"Ah~"
"What is that!"
A lord of the Sea God Church suddenly took a few steps back.
He shouted in a terrifying voice.
This sound attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone came closer to check.
On the screen at this time.
Outside the castle.
There were densely packed dark souls that could not be seen at a glance.
In the middle of these souls.
A creature holding a huge bow and wrapped in black mist was leading these souls step by step.
All the lords who saw the screen showed horrified expressions.
Some even started to vomit.
"Devil~"
"What is this!"
"So many."
In the entire Yueqiu territory.
All the lords showed horrified expressions.
And just when everyone was at a loss.
Behind.
A burst of hurried footsteps came.
"Report!"
"Information about the army attacking the branch city."
"Our army was defeated and is retreating!"
This sudden news.
The hall instantly fell into a strange silence.
After a long time, someone finally reacted.
"Impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible."
"Our army has clearly entered Fang Yuan's branch city."
"We are about to take over the lord hall of the branch city."
"How could we suddenly lose!!!"
No one wanted to believe it, nor did they want to believe this news.
But facts are facts.
There is no way to change it even if you don't believe it.
Soon.
Continuous news began to come back from the front line.
"Report."
"The hero who led the siege of the branch city has been confirmed dead."
"Report, the branch city is closed, we were ambushed."
"The 150,000-man army that entered the city was completely wiped out, and only less than 300 scouts were left to retreat."
When the last piece of news came here.
The lord present finally began to believe that he had lost the battle.
"I just read the battle report."
"It was Fang Yuan, he deployed heavy troops in the branch city."
"Deliberately lure our main force into the city."
"Then counterattack, seize the city wall, and lock all our main forces entering the city inside the city."
"Concentrate our forces and annihilate all the troops entering the city."
Immediately~
A gnashing voice came.
"Fang Yuan!"
"This treacherous villain!"
"My 150,000 orange main forces!!!"
And just at this moment, bad news came from outside again.
"Report!"
"In the mountains on the west coast, an unknown army was found to be rapidly crossing the mountains."
"It is rushing towards the Moon Hill."
The lord who heard the news felt a sense of horror.
"Are those monsters outside the castle?"
"It must be."
"All our main forces died in Gondor, and now... now we have no power to stop them."
"Retreat!"
As hired lords.
They had no reason to stay here and live and die with the people of Poseidon City.
So these lords decisively chose to leave.
Not long after, only the people of Poseidon City were left at the Moon Hill.
"Master."
"Let's retreat too."
"Those black fog-like monsters are like demons."
Someone made a cautious suggestion.
And the master of the Poseidon Church listened.
Did not answer.
Instead, he walked out of the camp.
Standing on the city wall, looking at the West Coast Mountains.
There.
A black fog was coming towards him.
After staring for a long time.
He slowly said.
"After all, I underestimated the heroes of this world."
"Fang Yuan was able to stand out from so many lords in such a short time."
"It is indeed powerful."
"But!"
"Our Sea God Church will not give up, we still have a chance."
"Just wait for the Sea God to wake up."
"I will return this revenge a hundredfold."
"Send an order!"
"Retreat."
"Give up the West Coast Plain!"
"As you command~"
And when the Sea God Church lord of Yueqiu was defeated and retreated.
At the same time.
Outside the Sea God City.
The gun covers of a full 500 magic crystal cannons were opened.
Christian's eyes flashed coldly.
"The Lord has given the order!"
"At any cost."
"Take over Poseidon City!"
"Fire!!!"
