Late night has arrived.

Louis XIV sat in the dark, leaning on his sword, without sleeping.

Of course he couldn't sleep either.

There was no way he was giving up this night.

This night was really important to him.

The reason why he retreated was not because he was afraid.

It's because he hasn't caught enough big fish yet.

The bait is fragrant enough.

But the patience of the hidden big fish is obviously more than he thought.

He has rested for one magic hour.

His army's casualties were much higher than he expected.

Although Meng Qi's charge was indeed terrifying, he was still a human being.

No matter how brave a person is, he can't kill many people.

At most, it would kill morale, but what Louis XIV was not afraid of the most was morale. This was an army that was completely loyal to him.

No matter what happens, they will never abandon themselves.

This is his greatest reliance.

On the contrary, he lost a lot of men during the siege. Due to the crude siege equipment, many people fell down and died alive without even getting to the top of the city.

Faced with this problem, he did not dare to take it lightly. Tonight was destined to be a series of fierce battles. He would try to preserve as much strength as he could.

So he deliberately used a magic spell to repair the entire army and rush to build more reliable siege equipment.

In the end, he brought out 10,000 elite soldiers. After two rounds of siege, the fighting strength was still over 7,000. This number was considered high.

But tonight...

"Your Majesty, it's ready." At this time, a soldier interrupted his meditation and announced the completion of the siege equipment.

"Well, the whole army is marching." Louis XIV nodded, stood up and drew his sword.

———————————————

As if he smelled something, Puerto Rico, who was already a little tired and about to fall asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

Before he could ask anything, a blaze of fire had already shot up into the sky.

The third round of siege finally began.

"Mengqi, what should we do?" He subconsciously looked in Mengqi's direction.

He was completely unaware that his voice was trembling. He was already a little broken. His last courage had been exhausted in the previous city defense battle.

"Sir..." Meng Qi opened his eyes weakly, took a breath and said with a forced smile, "Help me up to the top of the city."

"But..." Puerto Rico hesitated. He never wanted to do this, but...

"There is no other way, sir. Now, I am the only one going up." Meng Qi's words were already vague, but the meaning was inevitably revealed.

That is, only I, Mengqi, can stabilize people's hearts now.

This meaning made Puerto Rico's discomfort more obvious, but he could only say: "Okay. You have to be careful."

"Sir, I am too lucky to die." Meng Qi shook his head, calmly propped up his body, straightened his appearance, and then, with the help of a soldier, he began to walk towards the city.

.

And Puerto Rico looked at his back and said in his heart.

It would be better for you to die.

"Starting again?"

This was an expected offensive.

Silence did not move, he was very calm.

The Presidian Army is now at its peak in terms of momentum and numbers. If you enter the field rashly now, you may lose everything.

And he was also waiting for something. Although he had repeatedly confirmed that there was no trace of shadow flow around him.

But Ji Jue, who had already suffered a loss once, did not dare to take any more risks.

He has to wait a little longer, it's not everyone's limit yet.

But Louis XIV no longer seemed to think so, at least on the surface it seemed that he was no longer prepared to hold back.

As soon as the siege began, he rushed towards the city gate with his sword, ready to split the door with one strike. The door was made of the finest black rock wood, and was covered with ten layers of copper skin. It was also poured with copper.

The golden paint mixed with the powder of the legendary stone giant eliminates all magical reactions, and the city gate remains motionless even if it is bombarded by ten magic cannons.

Even though the city gate was so powerful, the former Lord of Luoye City even boasted that his Lord's Mansion was comparable to the Zhan Zhan Academy.

Meng Qi, who was already standing at the top of the city, still felt uneasy.

Because he had fought against that man, he fully knew his strength.

He was really afraid of that surging sense of power...

But why did he suddenly let go of his hands and feet? Wasn't he just now...

"Boom——" The first violent vibration had already come from the city.

Louis XIV has arrived.

At the same time, a siege ladder has been set up on the top of the city. This time the siege ladder is more refined than the last time. Not only does it come with a tricky hook, but the material has also changed from bamboo that is easy to cut to a clamped one.

The mixed material of steel is difficult to destroy in the first place.

"Destroy the enemy's siege ladder first, don't panic, our city gate is extremely strong." Although Meng Qi was worried in his heart, he could never show it on the surface. He is now the backbone. If he is not in chaos, the situation will still be good.

Can be stable.

Sure enough, his majestic and domineering performance in the previous battle coupled with the prestige he had accumulated in the past made his reputation reach its peak among the entire army.

As soon as he said this, all the originally panicked soldiers felt relieved and reluctantly began to move.

but------

"boom---"

"boom---"

The movement coming from below the city was really terrifying, it was like an ancient giant beast was constantly bombarding the city gate below.

Unfortunately, as the defenders of the city, the Netherworld Unicorns did not have any equipment to defend the city, so they could only let their opponents wreak havoc under the city.

There was really nothing Monchi could do about this, everything was too hasty, and it was too reluctant for him to achieve this step.

The only thing we can hope for now is...

That person could have arrived earlier.

————————————

"You said..." Ji frowned as he listened to the words of his subordinates under the constant and terrifying bombardment in the distance.

"Yes, sir, it's Shen. We just found him. He found us through the secret signal..." The ninja paused and said, "He was seriously injured."

"Are you here just now?" He didn't answer, but said something incomprehensible.

"What did you say?" The ninja was stunned and a little confused.

"Nothing, bring him to see me." Ji shook his head and looked at the battlefield where the battle was raging without expression.

The Presidian army had already reached the top of the city, and Louis XIV was still waving his sword crazily below the city. The city gate seemed to be in danger.

At times like this...

Shen, is it really you? (To be continued...)
