The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

On the eve of departure, Xu Lai held Elena, who was pregnant, in one hand, and Su Ya, who had spent more than half a month in Lionheart City.

"Sorry, I promised to accompany you well, but I have to break my promise again this time.

I have to go on this trip myself, I owe the elves a big favor.

And if I don't go, I can't say how many of the Qingfeng Corps will come back.

I have invested too much effort in this corps, I can't watch them being devoured by the undead."

Xu Lai owed the elves a favor, not just the favor of the world.

Every time humans asked for help, the elves came to help.

It didn't matter before, Xu Lai was just an ordinary hero who couldn't decide anything, and the elves didn't come to help him on purpose.

But now he is a king, he can't just limit himself to the interests of his small family.

Su Ya sighed and said, "It's nothing for me. I'm already satisfied to be able to stay with you for so long this time.

It's just a pity for sister Elena. If you leave, you will probably not see the birth of the child."

Xu Lai gently hugged Elena and said, "If possible, I really want to be with you.

It doesn't matter whether you can see the child or not. The key is that I don't want you to be in danger.

During this period, you must take good care of yourself and move back to Qingfeng City with Su Ya.

If there is anything, remember to notify me, I will find a way to rush back."

As a priest and archbishop of the temple, Elena even supports Xu Lai more than himself in supporting the elves.

"Don't worry, my husband. I will take good care of myself and the baby. I will go back to Qingfeng City with my sister tomorrow."

Xu Lai nodded and said, "I originally wanted Yu Lan, Giselle and the others to go back to accompany you.

But Lionheart City cannot be without someone in charge. I plan to let Yu Lan take charge of Lionheart City.

Giselle is an elf, and she has never seen the World Tree and has never lived in the elf area.

Although she didn't say anything this time, I can't force her to stay."

"That's right. I have to say something unpleasant. In this war between the elves and the undead, I think the elves are most likely to lose.

At that time, if something goes wrong with the World Tree, it will not only have a major impact on the whole world, but it will also be a lifelong regret for Giselle, Bai Yang and the others."

Xu Lai nodded and said, "This Once, Bishop Dur may lead the team himself, and I don't need a priest to accompany me.

I will let Anna go back with you and let her take care of you. "

Elena smiled bitterly and said, "My dear husband, don't forget that I am also an archbishop. What can I do?

On your side, Anna is at least an archbishop. A group healing technique can save countless lives.

You leave her with me, but it makes me feel uneasy. It's not good for me and the baby. "

"That's right, Giselle is a careless girl.

It's okay to let her warm the bed, but don't expect her to take care of people.

How can you be without someone to take care of you? Anna is very careful. It's just right to stay with you. "

The two sang the same tune, and Xu Lai had no choice but to keep Anna by his side.

Speaking of which, he married her, but he really didn't treat her well.

To go on an expedition to the heartland of the elves, Xu Lai didn't have much to carry. Su Ya would prepare supplies and food for him after returning to Qingfeng City.

The only things he needed to prepare in large quantities were the props and potions that could quickly restore mana.

Needless to say, potions must be used in the largest bottles, after all, this stuff cannot be drunk as water.

In addition, equipment with a brilliant aura and props that accelerate mana recovery must also be carried.

In comparison, Reina needs to prepare far more things than Xu Lai, and it is much more troublesome.

The rangers wanted to help, but they were outsiders and could only do so much.

Reina needed to select officers first, and then these officers would go down to select people.

Because Xu Lai said something extra, based on the principle of trying to get the soldiers to volunteer, Reina and a group of officers from the Qingfeng Corps worked all night.

They didn't have time to rest during the day, and they had to prepare supplies, especially ammunition for the archers.

The elves' own ammunition reserves all needed support from Xu Lai, so it was impossible to expect them to provide ammunition.

The bishops were also busy, busy contacting their previous friends.

The people in the city were also busy, but their busyness was destined to be fruitless.

The scheduled large-scale ceremony can only be postponed for a while.

Fortunately, the Eastern Empire dared not move. The Southern Empire wanted to retaliate, but its action was so slow that it was a headache.

Especially Count Jasmine, she was not originally from the South, but she married to the South and rode on her husband's head.

However, relying on her status as a princess and the most elite infantry regiment and archer regiment in her hands, the southern nobles gave her face.

Now that the empire has collapsed and the capital has been robbed, the status of the princess is no longer worth mentioning.

The army she relied on was also defeated and captured by Xu Lai, and Count Jasmine's situation in the Southern Empire is not very good now.

Even if she finally prepared and sent troops to retaliate, Xu Lai had already informed the chief of the Coast Guard, Rhine, and Avid.

They will organize a naval fleet to intercept along the river.

Only after passing the navy's defense line can the Southern Empire be qualified to land and fight.

In addition to leaving Eric and the new legion to guard Lion Heart City, Xu Lai also left behind the most mobile cavalry unit.

Before setting off, Xu Lai did not hold a ceremony, but left Eric a count document stamped with the king's seal.

There is no noble assembly in the Eagle Kingdom, and all rights belong to King Xu Lai.

Therefore, this count's document that he stamped has legal effect regardless of whether there is a ceremony or not.

This also means that even if Xu Lai has left, Eric has become a great nobleman with specialization.

However, the control of all recruitment of soldiers in the city is in the hands of Yu Lan. Yu Lan will also manage the military affairs of Lion Heart City as the princess, with Jian Yuan assisting.

Jilong and Eric will be mainly responsible for the government and military affairs of Lionheart City, while Tahan will be responsible for military affairs outside Lionheart City.

After a day and night of preparation, the army was finally assembled in the evening of the next day.

The female ranger Trishley thoughtfully wanted Xu Lai and the human warriors to rest for another night.

Xu Lai waved his hand and said: "The military situation is like a fire. Let's rest on the road."

After that, he took out the magic book and released the flying thaumaturgy.

Under the influence of flying magic, all the troops selected by Xu Lai flew, including his knights.

And under the control of Xu Lai's magic, the entire army did not need to make any movements at all, and they automatically flew forward without even moving their legs.

Everyone is like a wandering ghost, letting the breeze brought by the magic of flying blow them far away.

No unnecessary movements are required, even gravity has been ignored, all you need to do is relax your whole body.

In this state, as long as the soldiers get through the panic at the beginning of the flight, they can relax and rest soon.

However, this state is the most dangerous. In the air, there is no point of stress at all, and predators in the air may kill them at any time.

For this reason, Xu Lai also prepared guards, more than 90,000 royal griffins, Xu Lai brought out 40,000, one on the left and one on the right to protect the army in the sky.

Xu Lai and ranger Cuisili were sitting on the back of Holy Dragon Xiaolan. They felt very solid under their feet, but they couldn't relax at all.

The number of troops he carried this time exceeded 150,000, and it was Xu Lai who sent the royal griffons to Elvi.

Otherwise, the nearly 200,000 troops would not be able to bring them back even with Xu Lai's terrifying spirit.

But even so, Xu Lai's spirit was still in a highly tense state.

In addition, he had never been to the elf territory at all and had no idea of ​​the direction, so he could only find a familiar female elf to lead the way.

Rena used the excuse that she hadn't responded for many years to give this good job to Trishley.

Of course, Trisly is even less likely to refuse. Even one more minute of detours may determine the outcome of the war.

There was no hesitation at the moment, and she took the initiative to let Xu Lai hold her curvy body tightly.

It's a pity that Xu Lai's spirit was too tense and he didn't realize this beauty at all.

If he didn't control it well, hundreds of thousands of people would fall. The loss would be unimaginable.

This is all Xu Lai's pet peeve, so he must not be careless.

But Xu Lai couldn't keep his nerves tense all the time. Even if his magic power was enough to support him, his spirit couldn't bear it.

His one-time flying thaumaturgy can last about three hours. After that, he has to rest for at least an hour or two.

This period of time also allowed Xu Lai to have a detailed understanding of the current battlefield situation.

But the information that Trishley and the others can provide is extremely limited.

The only thing they could tell Xu Lai was that there were very many undead.

There are so many rangers like them that they can encounter a lot of undead no matter where they go.

In addition, regarding the specific number of undead, who are the heroes in the cemetery, where are they stationed, and where are their bases for mass-producing undead.

Trishley and the others wouldn't be able to answer it at all, but there wasn't much useful information anyway.

In fact, we can't blame them. We can only blame them on the excessive number of undead, which greatly compressed the space for the elves to move.

Xu Lai hoped for a quick battle, but the prerequisite for a quick battle was to be able to find the main force of the undead and defeat them in one fell swoop.

Xu Lai is still very confident in the quality of his troops.

But if a quick victory cannot be achieved, let’s not talk about whether the Southern Empire will take any action.

Just dragging it out would be very detrimental to Xu Lai.

The undead do not consume anything, but humans and elves are different. They must consume energy to live in the world.

The living space of the elves is constantly being compressed. There is neither a stable rear for production nor enough space to produce a population.

Once you are dragged along with the undead, you will end up being dragged to death.

When the undead first stepped out of the cursed land, they were not very powerful, otherwise the elves would not have the time to support humans.

But as time goes by, there are more and more undead, and no matter how many times the elves defeat the undead, they are always losing money.

Over time, the elves were compressed into the Emerald Forest by the undead, and had to rely on the World Tree for defense.

Tracey also knew that her answer would not satisfy Xu Lai.

"Your Majesty, although I don't know the specific distribution of the undead, the druids in my clan must know it very well.

At the entrance of the Emerald Forest is the Shenmu Castle, an important city of our elves, where a great druid is stationed. "

Xu Lai nodded and said, "Then we will go to Shenmu Castle, but how do you determine that the druids will know?"

Tsui Si Li smiled and said, "This is the advantage of fighting at home. Every flower and grass in the forest is our eyes and ears.

Although we can't communicate with these plants, the druids are the darlings of nature, and they can."

This is also a blessing in disguise. The elves can find helpers everywhere when fighting at home.

After setting the target, Xu Lai flew all night to hurry up. With the blessing of the speed, he had entered the elves' former territory when he rested for the third time.

Although Xu Lai had never been here before, he could imagine that the city of the fortress should be surrounded by greenery.

Just like the Stone Castle, it is green just because there are elves living there. It can't be considered an elf city.

But what he sees now is only a ruined city and withered vines.

From here on, the flying magic can no longer be used. It's not that Xu Lai's mana is exhausted, but there are signs of large-scale undead activities here.

The ground troops flying in the air have no combat power at all.

The griffins escorting on both sides can only guarantee to drive away the flying creatures in the wild.

For the undead, any living object is the object of their hatred.

Ordinary undead are fine, even if they are angry to death, they can't hurt the air units.

However, Xu Lai not only found signs of the activities of the undead wizards nearby, but also saw several bone dragons from a distance.

Fortunately, it is not far from the destination, Shenmu Fort.

However, Xu Lai and his team are so large, he saw others, and others must have seen them.

If it is the rangers like Cui Sili, it would be very easy to hide their bodies and pass by the undead.

But 200,000 troops, a large area, want to quietly cross the battlefield and rush to the elves' territory, it is simply a fool's dream.

Especially the undead, they are extremely sensitive to smells, and the most sensitive is human anger.

After landing, Xu Lai voluntarily gave up his position and handed over the position of the legion leader to Lena.

First, he was tired and needed to rest.

Second, he was just a driver, responsible for transporting the army.

It can even be said that his current mission has been completed and he can retreat at any time.

However, the Qingfeng Legion is his treasure. He is here and it is impossible for him to go back so easily.

Apart from anything else, even the undead will not agree.

If no one takes care of these bone sticks, out of hatred for the living, regardless of whether they will die or not, they will attack the living without hesitation.

Now that these bone sticks have not rushed forward, it can only mean that there is definitely an undead hero leading these bone sticks. (End of this chapter)
