Chapter 548: Comprehensive Counterattack
Orpheus asked him softly while blocking Val Ghez's attack. Val Ghez did not respond, and Orpheus did not expect him to respond. He just cast his infinitely sad eyes on him again. .
In Orpheus's heart, Val Ghez will always be a victim deceived by Vlaakis's lies, but - he can no longer have mercy on him.
'Why? ! Why are you looking at me like that! ’
Even though one hand was still clamped and all the spiritual energy in his body was blocked, Val Ghez still noticed Orpheus' expression. This kind of pity from the enemy made him extremely angry, but it also made him feel A feeling that I have never experienced before.
regret? Reflection? Or tolerant? Val Ghez didn't know that he could always feel a subtle strange feeling in this strange fellow race, but the habit he had developed under the rule of the Supreme Queen for hundreds of years made him Instinctively, I don't want to think about what this feeling means.
So until now, Val Ghez is still waving his fist in vain, attacking Orpheus, and this is the last thing he did in his long, but not glorious life.
"Rest in peace."
Orpheus suddenly closed his eyes, and the next moment, before Val Ghez could react, a powerful energy suddenly burst out from Orpheus's body, and this energy flowed along Val Ghez's body. Guez's bound right hand, like a torrent that broke a dam, surged violently from Orpheus's hand into Val Guez's body. At this moment, Val Guez died.
His body, which was struggling violently, suddenly stiffened for a moment, and then his whole body collapsed. Orpheus reached out to catch Val Ghez's body, laid him flat on the ground, stretched out his hand, and closed his eyes.
"His Majesty."
The person who spoke was Lee Rick, and some honorary guards who came one after another during this period. These honorary guards of Orpheus witnessed all this with their own eyes.
As tens of thousands of years of veterans, they had witnessed the glory of Gith and followed him to break the shackles that imprisoned their compatriots. They had also personally cut off hundreds of illithid heads, overturning the great blueprint. The persecution of the Gith and the tea poison.
They have experienced countless traumas and setbacks in their lives, and all of this is for the purpose of liberating their race and their compatriots. Because of this, no one in the world understands better than them that for For Orpheus, how cruel it is to kill one's own compatriots with one's own hands, even if Val Ghez died without pain.
Orpheus completely destroyed his nerves and wiped out his life the moment he used the resonance energy blast. This way of death was undoubtedly a kind of mercy for him, but...
"Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Rei Rick squeezed out from among the many honorary guards and silently came to Orpheus's side. He looked at the silent Comet Prince with worry. She was afraid that this killing would become Orpheus's experience. After ten thousand years of imprisonment, this was the last straw for him.
But Orpheus just stood silently like this, silently watching Val Ghez's face without any trace of anger after his death, and then spoke silently.
"No change, my compatriots, no change at all..."
The moment he said these words, Orpheus suddenly raised his head and focused his gaze on the entire battlefield. By this time, the entire raiding force used by the Githyanki to recover the Astral Prism had arrived on the battlefield.
Orpheus saw a dozen small magic ships that were light, fast, and shaped like flying pills (12 meters long, 4 meters wide, carrying 8 people, and equipped with a ballistae on the bow) in the sky. , there is also a medium-sized magic ship that is several times larger than those ordinary magic ships (30 meters long, 8 meters wide, 50 people, equipped with four magic crystal cannons on the hull, and two ballistae on the bow), Just drove out of the portal in the sky.
He also saw that their ally, their MLA'GHIR (Liberator), ran directly into a red dragon, stopped it forcefully, then grabbed its right horn with endless brute force, and even killed it His head was pulled backwards, and then He added a fierce punch, directly knocking the dragon out, causing it to fall from the sky unconsciously. Then he flew to the tail of the dragon, grabbed its tail, and swung the giant beast in the sky. Flying, it directly knocked over two approaching small magic ships.
The Githyanki on the magic ship instantly lost their stability, and all of them fell from the sky along with the shattered hull of the ship. They then relied on the Githyanki's innate ability [Dimension Step] to land safely, and faced an army already waiting below. The flame fist army launched, and Nohir flew towards other magic ships at this time.
His purpose is to destroy the flight ability of these Githyanki, destroy these magic ships, and make them lose their air superiority so that they cannot pose a threat to ground troops. Orpheus also saw Nohir’s purpose, and even more He was merciful, because for Nohir, the skill of destroying the ship was enough for him to rush directly to the magic ship and drive out all the Githyanki on it, but Nohir did not do this.
In order to fulfill their agreement, Noshir chose to use this stupid method to avoid direct casualties among the Gisyanki. Orpheus knew that just as he was embarrassed to attack his compatriots, Noshir must also be embarrassed, embarrassed that in such a time of crisis, he could not do his best to help his city resist foreign enemies.
Orpheus had not seen such a good deed in ten thousand years. He came to his senses, took a deep breath, cleared all the distractions in his mind, put all his energy into this battle, and then turned around and roared loudly to the Honor Guards who had assembled behind him!
"——KITHRAK (fellow countrymen)! Get ready for battle! MLA'GHIR (liberators) are willing to risk more casualties to help us save the lives of our people! Then we must not let this trust down!"
"All weavers take off! Build a psychic field to isolate the aerial bombardment of the magic crystal cannon! Gish and the monks go to the front battlefield, knock down the rebels as quickly as possible, and then transport them to a safe place."
"Vlakis underestimated us. The total number of Gish people who came to recover the Astral Prism this time is only 300. We have enough ability to minimize casualties. Don't let MLA'GHIR (liberator) down!"
