Although the place where the island Republic piles up supplies is an island, it is actually the same size as a small city. After climbing the beach, a mountain appears in front of you, with dense forests everywhere above. A city wall is towering above the top of the mountain. Standing above you can see the entire island.

As soon as the Imperial Guards got ashore, they had not had time to move the ladder off the boat, and they were attacked by crossbows from the mountain. There was no place to hide on the long road from the coast to the hillside, and this was specially designed to defend the city.

But this kind of attack could not stop the Imperial Guards at all. Although the Imperial Guards' infantry did not wear three layers of armor like the Imperial Paladin, they could be called fully armed, and there were large square shields that could protect the whole body. It was still difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to injure them.

"It's a cloudy day. It's great. We can fight coolly in the shadows!"

Berengal's half-joking words made the guards laugh knowingly. Most of the flying crossbows were inserted into their shields, and there was no other effect except to make the sky cloudy.

Under the cover of the shield hand, the Imperial Guard moved the ladder off the boat, then formed a shield wall, and began to climb up the mountain with the rain of arrows. It was very difficult to form a shield wall and climb the mountain with the rain of arrows, but the Imperial Guard was very relaxed.

Berengal thought he would be ambushed in the dense forest halfway up the hillside, but he did not. As they advanced, the enemy's crossbowmen began to retreat. But when they arrived in front of the city wall, they did not see even an enemy.

——Even the gates of the castle are open.

Berengal asked the guards to stop in front of the city wall.

"Don't go into the city gate first, use the ladder to climb up the city wall and take a look!"

The Imperial Guard climbed up the city wall according to the order and looked around for a while: "There are no enemies on the city wall, and there are no ones on the streets in the city!"

"That's to hide in the house." Berengal waved his hand, "Go into the city, be careful to search carefully, so as not to be ambushed!"

Even if they searched, the Imperial Guards were quite organized. They kept some of them on the city walls and some of the soldiers were stationed next to the city gates. Each search team was divided into three groups, two groups blocking the two ends of the streets, and one group searched next to the houses. Not only did they search for ambushing, but also search for flammable objects. Until a row of streets was checked, they continued to search for the next row.

But even after searching for a long time, they did not find any abnormalities and saw an enemy army.

The only remaining building is the place where the lord lives. It is a lonely fortress, independent of the outer wall, standing in the middle of the city.

The door of the fortress was also open. The soldiers of the Imperial Guard rushed in and soon occupied the place.

"Report to the general, there are no enemies inside!"

Berengal walked into the castle with a few guard soldiers with suspicion, walked all the way to the lord's hall, but did not see a single figure. He only saw a map of the island being spread out on a conference table.

"Go outside the city to search to see if you are hiding in the woods."

After giving orders to the Imperial Guards, Berengal took off his helmet, picked up the candlestick, and looked at it carefully next to the map.

Darkness quietly arrived, and the soldiers guarding the door of the lord's hall fell down one by one. Berengal accidentally raised his head and suddenly found that it was pitch black outside the door. Without thinking, he raised the Longineus gun and threw it towards it!

——"God, why did you give up on me?"

In the familiar spell, Longinus's gun fell to the ground. Then, several black shadows flew in like bows and arrows, and successively wiped out all the candles placed around the room.

Berengal carefully protected the candlestick in his hand - this was the only light source left in the room.

"Who are you?"

"Who am I? Berengal, can you really guess?"

A woman's voice floated from the front, but after a while, Berengal felt a hand patting his shoulder from behind. He immediately threw away the candle and prepared to draw his sword and cut it back, but when he touched the scabbard, he found that it was empty at some point.

The hands gently stroked Berengal through the armor.

"Don't rush to turn around. Berengal, guess, are I wearing clothes now?"

But Berengal still grabbed the hands without hesitation and turned around to subdue the woman behind her to the ground.

"What a lot of strength. But why did you suddenly let go?"

The moonlight shone into the window, illuminating Ipolita's messy clothes and beautiful silver hair.

"What's wrong? Berengal? Do you want to ask, where is my blonde?"

Ipolita was pressed to the ground by Berengal, and she was panting while smiling strangely.

"For everything has changed. From the time you betrayed me and turned to Scipio's house, the power of light and healing has become darkness and curse."

As soon as he finished speaking, Berengal suddenly felt his body soft and seemed to be unable to support his body.

"When you took off your helmet, my arrows had already hit you. The arrows made of darkness - don't feel anything at all?"

Berengal felt his body getting numb. Ipolita smiled and hugged his head and kissed him.

"This kiss is what you always want?"

After doing this, Ipolita pushed Berengal's body away, put on his clothes and came to the window.

"The tide is coming down. Berengal, do you know what will appear on the shore?"

Berengal was weak and could only stare at Ipolita and asked, "What's there?"

Ipolita smiled again: "Guess, why did the ships of the Island Republic not use Ocean Fire when you attacked this island?"

As the tide fell, a row of wooden boxes gradually appeared on the side of the ship of the Seven Hills Empire. Ipolita smiled and took down a candlestick, lit a fire with a flint, and lit a rocket.

"In the past few years, everything has changed, but there is only one thing that has not changed - that is my bow technique."

"Destroy your warships. With the fire, the 'retreated' warships in the Island Republic will make a comeback. As long as there are no ships, no matter how powerful your guards are, they will be trapped on this small island!"

A trace of fear flashed in Berengal's eyes: "Ipolita, stop..."

Ipolita turned his head and smiled miserably.

"Belengar, do you know how many times have you kissed the toes of Patisipacio, the governor of the Island Republic, just lightly in the past decade?"

The rocket in her hand shot out. At such a long distance, she still allowed the rocket to accurately insert into a wooden box.

"Apollo's guidance? The people of the Seven Hills who betrayed the Augustus clan deserved the guidance of Apollo?"

The power of the arrow was so powerful that it sank the entire wooden box. The water of the ocean fire encountered the air and instantly burned, causing a violent explosion in the water.

The explosion ignited more wooden boxes and detonated many ocean fires. With the wooden boxes shot by Ipolita as the center, a row of fire walls spread to both sides, sweeping the warships parked by the Qiqiu Empire at the port!

"Belengar, you should feel lucky. Your information is indeed correct. This is a material reserve point. Although this is not the only material reserve point, the materials left here should be enough to keep you alive and witness the demise of the Qiqiu Empire with your own eyes."

Berengal felt his eyelids heavier. Before he fell asleep, he heard the last sentence of Ipolita's question:
