Volume 12 Chapter 79 : Helpers (3)

Reinforcements! Hurry! And remember! The insects bodily fluids are corrosive, so don't come into contact with them! The general of Selga shouted orders, instructing soldiers to support the archers. He himself charged forward bravely to confront the demonic insects.

The situation could only be described as dire. The spirit soldiers were pushed back, and the general was ambushed by the demon soldiers hidden among the demonic insects, sustaining injuries.

The losses among the spirit soldiers were severe, and they fell back to the last line of defensethe gate of Selga's city. If they failed to defend that position

"We can't hold on any longer, we all will die," Several soldiers had lost their will to fight. Looking at the endless stream of demonic insects, their hearts were filled with despair.

Old Chavez wiped the black blood off his blade, his emotions complex.

The demonic insects were closing in again.

The battle was about to begin once more.

"Brothers" Supported by someone, the general, now weakened, addressed the soldiers, "Perhaps, this time, we may not make it"

With his words, the soldiers all lowered their heads in discouragement.

"But!" The general's tone suddenly changed, becoming forceful and resolute. It did not sound like someone who was injured at all, "We cannot give up! As long as there's a glimmer of hope in this battle, giving up means abandoning even that!"

"The enemy is a hundred meters away!" The observer reported the distance of the demonic insects.

The soldiers all looked towards the approaching demonic insects.

"So, for that last bit of hope Charge!!" The general roared, pushing away his advisor who was helping him, and picked up his weapon, leading the charge.

The soldiers all steeled themselves for the inevitable, prepared to face death. If they were to die, they wanted to go first. They never wanted to witness their families injured.

"Ah-oh!!!" A dragon's roar froze all the soldiers in their tracks.

The ground suddenly darkened, and the sun was blocked. Was it the clouds? Definitely not, because the shadow was moving too quickly. The soldiers looked up, and a massive figure swept past, creating a strong gust of wind.

"Hooo Whoosh!" A fierce wind billowed out, engulfing the demonic insects before them, shredding them to pieces.

"Yes. Last night, something happened at Fog Castle, and they fled on the birds. We don't know where they've gone. This morning, we were coincidentally attacked by demonic creatures. Luckily, you arrived in time, or else" At that point, the general looked with great interest at the dragons attacking the demonic insects in the distance, "City Lord Wind Fury, City Lord Reggie, you both are amazing. You actually managed to ask dragons for help."

"I don't have that much ability. Let's not talk about that for now. We need to gather willing spirits to go and crusade against the demon clan and prevent the sacrifice from happening."

The general naturally had no idea about the sacrifice.

Selga was fortunate. It had not been attacked. However, the news of the demonic insects' invasion in the morning had terrified the residents. They looked at the city walls from time to time, fearing that demonic insects would crawl in or that the city gates would be breached.

They also caught sight of the dragons, which sent them scurrying into their homes.

The guards at the gate were also nervous. At first, no one opened the city gates, and it was not until they heard the general's shouts that someone poked their head out from the gatehouse and opened the gates.

The arrival of Lin Xiang and the others puzzled the spirits of Selga. After learning that the demonic insects had been cleared by the dragons, they felt a strange mix of happiness and surprise.

Selga was an industrial city, and nearby were rich mines. Here, the quantity of weapons and armor was considerable. The spirits who were willing to go to the battlefield from Delza all received armor supplies. The beast spirits put on their armor for the first time, and although it was their first time wearing it, they felt a sense of familiarity and quickly adapted. It was as if they were born for battle.

With the help of the general, Wind Fury and Reggie began to gather the spirits. There were not many volunteers, not even five thousand, and the soldiers and guards made up the majority.

"Do you have fish." Valarie asked a soldier. Reverting to her normal state, she looked like a little girl.

"Fish? Yes! Of course, we have. Some spirits used fish to make soup before, and it tasted really good. Wait here, I'll go find some for you." The soldier knew that Valarie was a dragon and did not dare to be negligent. He called a few comrades and hurried off to find fish.

Valarie felt bored and sat on a stone platform beside the city wall, dangling her legs.

Bellina stealthily sneaked up behind Valarie, grinning mischieviously. She used water to lift herself up and opened her arms, preparing to give Valarie a surprise hug from behind.

"Valarie." Lin Xiang called out not far away. Valarie jumped down and walked towards Lin Xiang.

Bellina closed her eyes and was about to enjoy the warmth of Valarie's body, yet she only embraced air. She abruptly opened her eyes and looked at Lin Xiang with resentment in her eyes. Gritting her teeth, she said a few words, "That damned human boy.

Valarie, who had walked further away, lightly snapped her fingers. Bellina held her bottom that was burning and hopped around the ground, "Its, its so hot. Little Valaries Little Valaries love is so fierce that I can't stand it."

Without looking back at Bellina, Valarie came to Lin Xiang, "What is wrong."
