Chapter 247: Enemy at the Gate

The blazing sun was hanging in the sky, scorching the earth.

Although it was the last day of October, the border between the Principality and the Dark City was like summer all year round, and there was no chill at all.

After nearly ten hours of rest, Chen Ping's energy was completely restored, and he even had a very wonderful dream.

"Hmm? Is the dream real?"

Chen Ping was about to get up when he suddenly found a delicate body curled up in his arms.

Looking down, it was Elias, the eldest princess of the Dark Elves, and the tent was in a mess, as if it had been a very fierce battle.

"My Lord... You are awake!"

Elias raised her beautiful eyes slightly and said weakly.

As the eldest daughter of the Queen of the Dark Elves, Elias also inherited the Queen's iron blood and strength, and also had a high reputation in the army of the Dark Elves.

In the past, when wars or frictions occurred, Elias also led the way, but this time, she was sent to contact the human race, so she did not appear in the army at the first time.

She is not only the eldest princess of the dark elves, but also the most valiant warrior among the dark elves, and she has always maintained a proud attitude.

But at this time, Elias was like a little bird, nestling in Chen Ping's arms.

"Ahem... last night..." Chen Ping scratched his head awkwardly.

Although Chen Ping was not a virgin, the two sides did not have much contact. Chen Ping was a little unprepared for the relationship to happen so quickly.

Things have already happened, and Chen Ping naturally chose to accept it.

However, his feelings about what happened last night were not so real. In order to make up for the regret, the sound of fighting sounded again in the tent.

Until the afterglow of the sunset slowly disappeared, the starlight in the sky poured down to the earth, and everything gradually returned to silence.

Facing Chen Ping's offensive, Elias had no ability to resist. Fortunately, her physique was higher than that of ordinary people, otherwise she could not resist even half an hour.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

"It is my honor to serve you, sir!"

"Sir?"

"Her Majesty the Queen suggested to the High Priest that you be appointed as the Dark Elves' Divine Strategy Officer, and the Senate has passed it unanimously. I just don't know if you are willing..." Elias whispered.

"Divine Strategy Officer?"

It was the first time that Chen Ping heard this title. Elias endured the pain in his body and explained to Chen Ping the origin and supreme power of the Divine Strategy Officer.

"I just did my best, how can I take on this great task!" Chen Ping shook his head.

"Your Excellency saved the entire Dark Elves and even eliminated the hidden dangers of the Dark Elves for thousands of years. The position of Divine Strategy Officer is still undecided because the Dark Elves have never had a figure like you. Only you can be competent for the position of Divine Strategy Officer!"

When Elias heard Chen Ping's refusal, he became nervous and immediately persuaded him.

Chen Ping only symbolically declined, but he didn't expect that this little girl would take it seriously.

"Let's talk about it when we return to Dark City!" Chen Ping nodded.

In the following two days, Chen Ping refined several more furnaces of elixirs and had them taken to other dark elf cities. The army of more than 100,000 continued to be stationed at the border of the principality. Among them, 30,000 elites, led by Elias himself, went to the principality as reinforcements for support.

Chen Ping returned to Dark City and accepted the Queen's reward. He became the Dark Elves' God Strategy Officer. He was also the first foreigner to serve as a high-ranking official in the Dark Elves.

As for the high priest's teaching at Tianmeng College, Chen Ping was not in a hurry. The Dark Elves had just stabilized, and Chen Ping gave the high priest half a year.

In fact, it was because Tianmeng College had not yet been completed.

Chen Ping went to the library of Dark City again and checked many magic records about the Dark Elves. It can be said that he had gained a lot.

After staying in Dark City for four days, Chen Ping was ready to return to the principality, and the high priest also gave Chen Ping two boxes of intermediate magic stones. Chen Ping also showed great generosity and handed over an ancient elf holy artifact to the Queen of the Dark Elves.

Without the magic stone that seals the skill, these holy artifacts are almost useless. Chen Ping still has several holy artifacts in his hand, so he doesn't need this one.

In the future, the high priest will be needed to teach at Tianmeng Academy, and the members of the dark elves will become Tianmeng Academy.

At present, more than a thousand dark elves have joined Tianmeng Academy, and including the thousand people of the succubus, there are a total of two thousand formal students.

To open the next forbidden technique, you need to have three thousand students and rebuild a real academy.

The academy has been handed over to Bai Yue to take care of it, and Chen Ping now needs to find about a thousand more students.

With the approval of the high priest and the queen, Chen Ping set up a teleportation array in Black Tower Mountain.

This place can be regarded as the hinterland of the dark elves. For the elite, it only takes two or three days to reach the Dark City from here. Agreeing to build a teleportation array here is enough to show the trust of the dark elves in Chen Ping and the principality.

With the teleportation array, Chen Ping can save a lot of time.

Seventeen days had passed when they returned to Hutton City in the Principality through the teleportation array.

Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin had landed their spaceship outside Hutton City seven days ago. With only a hundred people, they relied on the weapons of the heavens to resist the 30,000 vanguard troops of the Snow Clan.

However, after the Snow Clan mastered the rules of these weapons, they quickly broke through the defense line of the hundred-man team. Ma Zi and others retreated to Hutton City, and Elias arrived with the reinforcements of the Dark Elves.

Not long after the two sides entered into a stalemate, the follow-up troops of the Snow Clan arrived, and the 30,000 elites of the Dark Elf Clan were completely suppressed. Even with the cooperation of Mazi and others, it was difficult to withstand the offensive of the Snow Clan's hundreds of thousands of troops.

Just before the Snow Clan was about to attack Hedun City, a force of nearly ten thousand people suddenly penetrated from behind the Snow Clan like a sharp blade. Iles took the opportunity to lead 10,000 Dark Elf warriors to cooperate inside and outside, causing the Snow Clan to suffer heavy losses.

At this point, the Snow Clan retreated more than ninety miles, setting up camp and cultivating their strength while waiting for the main army to arrive.

The Principality of Mar, Hutton City, in the meeting hall.

Chen Ping briefly understood what happened during this period, and what surprised him the most was Xue Na.

Although I knew that Xue Na was very capable in all aspects, and that Blood Rose's name was definitely not wasted when she was at Dawn Camp, I never expected that she could actually pull up a team of ten thousand people in such a short period of time. , after only a short period of training, he was able to play such a huge role on the battlefield.

"Sir, according to the reports from spies, the real main force of the Snow Tribe is still on the way. It will arrive at Hedun City in five days at the latest and three days at the earliest. With our current capabilities, we may not be able to resist it!" Ye Ying looked worried. said.

Right now, even if there is no threat from the Dark Elf clan, and they even become reinforcements, the situation in the principality is still not optimistic. The Snow clan's fighting power is extremely strong, and the principality has no ability to resist.

Without new reinforcements, the countdown to the principality's demise can begin.

"Sir, there are still 150,000 dark elves stationed on the border between the principality and the dark elves. They can leave with just your order!"

Eles, wearing black armor, said solemnly.

"What's going on in the Des Empire?" Chen Ping looked at Ye Ying.

"The latest news is that the Silver Wolf Knights have been stationed at the border between the principality and the empire, and are led by... leader Barn personally!"

When the name "Barn" was mentioned, Yeying's face clearly showed some abnormal expressions, including hatred and fear.

"The army of dark elves is our last guarantee. It can only be used when the imperial army is dispatched!" Chen Ping said in a deep voice.

He never used the Dark Elf army, which was used to guard against the Empire's troops.

At present, the principality is obviously allied with the Dark City, and it is precisely because of the dark elf army at the rear that the empire has been slow to take action.

If the Dark Elf army is used now, the Imperial troops will definitely launch a brazen attack when resisting the Snow Clan.

"However, if the Dark Elf army is not allowed to come and garrison, Hutton City will definitely not be able to hold it when the main force of the Snow Clan arrives!" Eles shook his head.

"How many people are there in our team?" Chen Ping looked at Mazi.

"After several days of fighting, seven people were killed, 13 were seriously injured, 25 were slightly injured, and nearly one-third of the weapons were damaged!" Mazi replied.

Chen Ping turned his head and looked at Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin. Before he could ask the question, Jiang Xin answered directly: "By controlling the spacecraft, you can carry out saturation strikes and easily destroy enemies below level four. You can also attack enemies at level five. The only problem with causing considerable damage is that the consumption will be astonishing, more than fifty times that of running in a non-combat state, and... with the current energy storage situation, it can sustain uninterrupted attacks for up to twenty hours!"

"But after twenty hours, the spacecraft will be completely scrapped, and we won't even be able to use it to return!"

Jiang Cheng added.

"Where is the current main force of the Snow Clan, how many people are there, and what is their maximum strength?"

"The main force of the Snow Tribe is here!" Ye Ying stepped forward and pointed to a location on the sand table.

"We have obtained three pieces of intelligence, and the predicted troop strength is between 300,000 and 500,000. Their commander's strength is level six, and more than half of the soldiers have reached level five." Yeying answered.

"How many Dark Elf warriors are there in the city?"

"Eight thousand, four hundred and sixty-five people!" Elais's answer was very accurate.

"Through the spaceship, transport all the Celestials and Dark Elf people in the city to this location in batches!" Chen Ping pointed to the sand table, a hill in the south where the Snow Clan army was stationed.

In fact, the simpler way is to build a teleportation array there and teleport people directly there.

However, the Snow Tribe has a strong sense of this kind of magical fluctuations, and the troops of each tribe on the mainland have their own detection methods, which can easily detect the teleportation array within a certain range. After all, every time the teleportation array is used, there will be violent elements. Fluctuation is not difficult to detect.

The operation of the spacecraft will not produce any fluctuations in elements, and naturally cannot be discovered or detected.

"Your purpose is not to consume the enemy, but to use all means to slow down the Snow Clan's march as much as possible while ensuring that you are not annihilated, and buy enough time for me!"

"Understood!" Everyone said in unison, and then Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin began to drive the spaceship to transport the team to the predetermined location.

This distance does not seem short, but at the speed of the spacecraft, it can be reached in the blink of an eye, and it does not consume a lot of energy. The only time wasted is waiting for the troops to enter and exit.

While Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin were transporting troops, Chen Ping also began to prepare for going to Snow City. At the same time, Queen Skadi of the Principality sent people.

"Your Majesty the Marquis, Your Majesty the Queen, please come over!"

"What's the matter?"

"The fortune teller Letina is here, and she wants to perform divination for the Marquis's expedition!"

Chen Ping suddenly became nervous when he heard the name "Retina", but on the surface he remained calm.

"Well, I will go to the palace and meet Her Majesty the Queen!" Chen Ping nodded.

After the messenger left, Chen Ping first took Jialu to Jiang Cheng and Jiang Xin's spaceship, then arranged Jialu on the spaceship. Finally, he carefully thought about how to deal with Letina before walking towards the palace.
