We Agreed To Set Sail and Become the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

Chapter 452 [Post-War Action] [Yesai’s Struggle]

Shane stood on the wall, his eyes swept across the battlefield.

Although he was relieved of the victory, he also knew that the price of this battle could not be ignored.

Although the soldiers on the city wall were in high morale, many of them were covered in wounds and their tired expressions could not be concealed.

On the battlefield under the city, there were charred craters and blood everywhere.

Although the power of [Fountain of Life] purifies [Dirty Secret Power], the traces of battle are still shocking.

Xia En said in a deep voice: "Jane, count the casualties."

"yes."

Jane nodded and quickly summoned several soldiers in charge of statistics to start counting the losses of the battle.

After a moment, she returned to Xia En with a report.

"Shane, we lost thirty-seven soldiers in this battle."

"Nearly a hundred other people were injured, including more than 20 seriously injured."

Jane's voice was low, and a trace of grief flashed in her eyes.

Xia En was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.

Although they successfully repelled the beast tide, the sacrifice of each warrior made him feel heavy.

As the lord of [Rhine City], everyone in the city is his people.

Xia En took a deep breath and said with a firm look.

“Funerals are held for the sacrificed soldiers and properly house their families.”

"The injured fighters are treated as soon as possible and make sure they are best cared for."

Jian nodded and then added: "The city walls and the defense facilities in the city have also been damaged to varying degrees."

"Especially the city wall on the east side was severely damaged by the impact of the giant ape and needs to be repaired as soon as possible."

Xia En frowned and his eyes turned to the wall on the east side.

There are indeed several obvious cracks there, and even a small section of the city wall has collapsed.

He pondered for a moment, then ordered.

"Immediately organize people to repair the city walls and give priority to repairing the most severely damaged areas."

"At the same time, strengthen patrols in the city to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation."

"clear."

Jane quickly turned around and began to arrange the restoration work.

Xia En's eyes swept across the battlefield again, thinking about the next action in his heart.

Although they successfully repelled the beast tide, the threat of [Heart-breaking Apostle] still exists.

He must make the next plan as soon as possible to ensure the safety of [Rhine City].

"Captain Shane, what should we do next?"

Sha Jingjing walked to him and asked in a low voice.

There was a hint of fatigue in her eyes, but more of a firmness.

Xia En pondered for a moment and said slowly, "[Heart-breaking Apostle] will not give up easily."

"And, this beast tide is very likely to be just a test."

"The real general offensive is far from beginning."

Upon hearing this, Sha Jingjing's expression became very solemn.

Just a tentative offensive brought great pressure to [Rhine City].

If the [Ancient Spirit Clan] really takes a gamble and the entire army attacks.

[Rhine City], can you still defend it?

Thinking of that possibility, Sha Jingjing felt extremely heavy.

"Don't be afraid, we are not without a chance of winning."

Xia En spoke, "After this battle, the strength of many soldiers in the city will be improved."

"And, wait until the passage between [Rhine Secret Realm] and [Elf Secret Realm] is stable."

"The reinforcements from the elves will be able to arrive at [Rhine City] to assist us in the battle."

Shane stood on the city wall, his eyes were as sharp as a torch, and he had a clear plan in his heart.

He turned around and said to Sha Jingjing, "We cannot sit and wait for death. We must take the initiative to completely eliminate the threat of the [Ancient Spirit Clan]."

Xia En immediately convened the core members of the city, including Jian, Xiange, Feiya and others, and held an emergency meeting.

"Everyone, the threat from the [Ancient Spirits] has not been lifted, we must take action."

Shane said straight to the point: "I decided to set up a city-protected magic circle in [Rhine City] to enhance our defense capabilities."

"At the same time, I will personally lead an elite team to go deep into the forest and wipe out the remnants of the [Ancient Spirit Clan]."

Sha Jingjing was a little surprised: "City protection array?"

"Yes."

Shane nodded.

In fact, he had already had the idea of ​​a city protection array, but he had always suffered from not having enough resources and time to implement it.

Now, [Rhine City] has experienced this battle.

Although the loss is not small, we have also gained new opportunities from the power of [Fountain of Life].

Shane realized that it was time to put the plan into action.

"The city-mopping magic array can not only enhance the defense of the city wall, but also automatically trigger the counterattack mechanism when the enemy attacks."

"This will greatly relieve our pressure on defense, especially when facing a large-scale attack," Shane explained.

"More importantly, this magic circle needs to be able to isolate the [filthy secret power]."

"Avoid [the filthy secret power] pollute the environment and people inside [Rhine City]."

Jian nodded and agreed, "Indeed, if we can arrange the city protection array in advance."

"The next time I face the beast tide, the pressure in the city will be much less."

"However, the arrangement of the city protection magic array requires a lot of secret resources and time. Do we have enough conditions now?"

String song raised questions.

Xia En smiled slightly, his eyes firm.

"The power of [Fountain of Life] has been transmitted to [Rhine Secret Realm], and we can use this power to arrange the magic circle."

"Although time is tight, as long as we work together, we can complete it in a short time."

“As for resource issues…”

Shane continued: "I have communicated with Ms. Angel of [Elf Secret Realm], and she will provide us with the necessary support."

"The elves have a deep accumulation of secret techniques and magic circles, and their help will greatly speed up our progress."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions relaxed a lot.

With the support of the elves, the arrangement of the city-protected magic circles seems to be no longer an out of reach.

"So, what about the elite squad?"

Feiya asked, "How many people are you planning to bring?"

Xia En pondered for a moment and replied, "The number of people should not be too large, otherwise it will be easy to alarm the enemy."

"It's still the ones we had when we dived into the forest last time."

"However, because Joey is breaking through in seclusion, Feiya and Sha Jingjing, you will come together this time."

"So, when will we set out?"

Sha Jingjing asked.

"The initial arrangement of the city protection array will take three days."

Xia En replied: "In these three days, we will do our best to complete the arrangement of the magic circle."

"Three days later, we set out immediately and went deep into the forest."

"good!"

Everyone responded in unison, with a firm light flashing in their eyes.

In the next three days, [Rhine City] entered a tense state of preparation.

Xia En personally directed the arrangement of the city-protected magic circle, and An Qi also continuously transmitted the power of [Fountain of Life] through the rituals to assist in the completion of the magic circle.

The soldiers in the city were divided into two groups.

One group is responsible for restoring the city wall, while the other group assists in the arrangement of magic circles.

Three days later, the foundation of the city protection array was finally completed.

The entire [Rhine City] is covered by a layer of faint golden light curtain.

The power of the magic circle echoes the power of the [Fourth of Life] and can turn into an indestructible barrier at any time.

"The magic circle has been activated, it depends on us next."

Shane stood on the city wall, his eyes swept across the battlefield below, and then turned around and said to everyone behind him.

"Set off!"

…

…

Deep in the forest, darkness enveloped the earth. Ye Sai held the hands of the children beside him tightly and ran in the dense forest.

Behind him, angry roars and rushing footsteps were getting closer and closer.

"Teacher, they are going to catch up!"

Behind Ye Sai, several young [Ancient Spiritual Clan] people were followed.

Their eyes were clear and trusted in Yesai.

These young people are Yesai's students.

After listening to Yesai's words, they realized that the king had been controlled by an evil existence, so they wanted to save the blinded tribe members together.

The child around Ye Sai is the little prince of the [Ancient Spirit Clan], Xius!

With the efforts of Yesse and the students, they escaped with Sius.

But they were also hunted by other [Ancient Spirit Clans].

"Rebel! Stop!"

The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!

A familiar voice came, which was his former comrade-in-arms, and now the pursuer leader - Gru.

Ye Sai didn't look back, but just accelerated his pace.

Sius's little hand trembled slightly in his palm.

But he didn't cry, just bit his lips tightly.

"Teacher, why are they...why are they chasing us?"

Sius's voice was choked.

Ye Sai looked down at him, his eyes full of pity and determination.

"Because they were blinded, Seus."

“They don’t understand what we are doing.”

"But... they said we are rebels..."

Sius's voice became less and less.

Yesai stopped, squatted down, held Seus's shoulder with both hands, and looked straight into his eyes.

"Listen, Seus, we are saving our tribe, saving your father, and saving the entire [Ancient Spirits]."

Seus blinked, tears rolling in his eyes, but he nodded.

"Ye Sai! You can't escape!"

Gru's voice approached again, accompanied by the rustling sound of branches being pushed apart.

Yesai stood up, protected Seus behind him, and turned to face the pursuers.

Gru rushed out of the woods with more than a dozen [Ancient Spirituals] warriors.

Anger and confusion flashed in their eyes.

"Gru, do you really not understand?"

Yesai's voice was calm and powerful: "Our king has been manipulated by the [Heartbreaker], and his will no longer belongs to him."

"If we don't stop it, the entire [Ancient Spirit Clan] will be in disaster."

Gru sneered, pointing the spear in his hand at Yesai.

"Stop talking here to confuse the public!"

"The king is the supreme being, how can he be controlled?"

"You just want to usurp the throne, so you made up such a lie!"

Ye Sai sighed and shook his head.

"Gru, we once fought side by side, can't you see the king's abnormality?"

"What is his decision, his words and deeds, like the king we once admired?"

A trace of hesitation flashed in Gru's eyes, but was quickly replaced by anger.

"Shut up! You're just a traitor and want to shake our faith!"

"Today, I will clear the portal for Wang!"

Before he finished speaking, Gru had waved his spear and stabbed Yesai directly.

Yesai quickly dodged sideways, and pushed Sius aside.

"Seus, hide behind the tree!"

Seus staggered to a big tree, hugged the trunk tightly, and looked at the battle in front of him in horror.

Yesai's students fought with the pursuers.

Although these [Ancient Spiritual Clan] young men are not strong enough, the pursuers continue to arrive at the battlefield, which quickly put them at a disadvantage.

Especially in the battle between Yesai and Gru, it seemed even more dangerous.

"Gru, are you really going to kill me?"

Ye Sai dodged and shouted, "We used to be brothers!"

"brother?"

A little pain appeared in Gru's eyes, but it was immediately covered by anger.

"From the moment you betray the king, we are no longer brothers!"

A blood mark was drawn from Ye Sai's shoulder by a spear. He groaned, took a few steps back, and leaned his back against a big tree.

His breathing became rapid, but his eyes remained firm.

Just then.

Yesai's students suddenly burst into a roar.

They tried their best to break through the siege of pursuers and blocked between Yesai and Gru.

"Teacher, take Seus away!"

A student shouted that his arm had been slashed and blood dripped down his arm, but he was still holding the weapon tightly and blocking the pursuit.

"Don't worry about us! Escape!"

Another student shouted, his face covered in blood, but his eyes were filled with determination.

A trace of pain and reluctance flashed in Ye Sai's eyes.

But he knew that this was the only hope.

He gritted his teeth, picked up Seus and turned around and ran towards the depths of the forest.

"Xius, hug me!"

Ye Sai whispered, his pace at his feet accelerated.

Although the wound on his shoulder made him feel severely painful every step he ran, he dared not stop.

Xius hugged Yesai's neck tightly, his little body trembling.

But he didn't cry, but just buried his face on Yesai's shoulder.

Behind them, the roars of the students and the noise of the battle gradually faded away.

But Ye Sai knew that the pursuers would not let them go easily.

Sure enough, it didn't take long.

The rushing footsteps and Gru's roar came again behind him.

"Ye Sai! You can't escape!"

Ye Sai's heart sank.

His physical strength was approaching his limit, and Sius was just a child and could not run for a long time.

He looked around and tried to find a way out.

But the trees around seemed endless, and the dark forest was like a huge net, trapping them firmly.

"Teacher...we...can we still escape?"

Xius's voice trembled, and his small hands tightly grasped Yesai's clothes.

Yesai did not answer, but just accelerated his pace.

He knew that he had to protect Sius, no matter what, even if he gave his life.

However, the pursuers were much faster than they were.

Not long after, Gru's figure appeared in their sight again.

Ye Sai's steps stopped, and he knew that he had no way to escape.

"Yesai, it's over!"

Gru's voice was cold, and the spear in his hand pointed straight into Yesai's chest.

Yesse protected Sius behind him and looked at Gru with a firm look.

"Gru, do you really want to kill me? Do you really believe that the king is still the original king?"

A hint of hesitation flashed in Gru's eyes, but was quickly replaced by anger.

"Shut up!"

Before he finished speaking, Gru's spear had already stabbed out.

Ye Sai closed his eyes and prepared to welcome the arrival of death.

However, at this moment.

A figure appeared in front of Ye Sai.
