Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1413: Enter The City

The disappearance of the gemstone wall was precisely a signal that Alan had mentioned beforehand. Seeing this signal, the generals did not hold back any longer. Previously, in order to attract the attention of the Mokedan garrison, they had faked and faked a day or two of undefeatable battles, all of them holding back their breath. Now that the two generals of Tong Wu Xue Feng were the first to attack, how could they be so courteous? All of their auras were unleashed, and they led their respective armies to launch a fierce attack.

The South City Gate suddenly lost two armed platforms and its suppressive power was greatly reduced. In addition, Tong Wu's Void Origin Energy had very strong control over metal. After losing the barrier of the Gem Wall, the metal armor of the stronghold was like a virtual projection in front of Tong Wu. With a slight raise of his hand, the general would fold off the entire armor, reassemble it into a cubic ball of metal in his hand, and throw it out. Not to mention being hit right in the middle, even if it was brushed to the point of death, it would still result in injuries.

Now that the army of the Forgotten Realm had launched a general offensive, the pressure on the defensive lines in front of Mokedan City immediately increased. Two lines of defense have been swept across by Tong Wu's frequent cube attacks and the approaching snow storms.

At this moment, a few union experts rushed out from a line of defense, trying to block it. Tong Wu coldly snorted and went to greet the experts alone. Although those people were at the 31st or 2nd grade, they were still at the same level. However, there was a considerable distance between them and Tong Wu, and it was even worse than when Laura and the others had fought against Bali that day. In just a few moments, one of them had his head smashed open by Tong Wu, and the other had a hole in his chest. The remaining one finally lost all fighting spirit and rushed back to the city screaming.

The general of the Berserk Shadow Army was filled with bitterness. In the blink of an eye, two of the three trade union experts had died, and one had escaped. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the experts of the other trade unions. Then an airship appeared above the battlefield, and a voice sounded from the airship, "I am Jaya of the Black Cat Guild. Listen carefully from the other Guilds. This is a war between Lord Alan and the Empire." Lord Alan said that if you leave, he won't hold you accountable for what you did. On the contrary, after the war, you will still be able to keep your assets in Mokedan. After that, you will definitely not interfere with him. "

The repetition of broadcasts like this made the ape-faced general's face turn green. "General," he said angrily, "we have just disappeared. Our military region in the city has been attacked by the enemy. General Rupert and General Jeffrey have died in battle, and most of the officers in the city have surrendered."

"What?" The general was stunned. If that was the case, then how could this battle be fought?

"General, what should we do?"

"What else can we do" The ape-faced general gritted his teeth and said, "Go, inform the officers at all levels to gather their subordinates. We have to leave before the enemy destroys the city. If we don't leave, we won't have to go anywhere."

As a result, the Mad Shadow Army quietly left the city gates after Mo Ke's pill was broken. They didn't go back to the city to retrieve the flying ship and directly left through a remote city gate. They didn't even need to use the land carriage to leave the stronghold that was still rumbling with artillery fire. After the Berserk Shadow Army withdrew, the command room of the army finally gave the order to surrender. The defenders at the city gate were both unwilling and helpless, but they also obeyed the order to surrender. Only a small number of soldiers still resisted desperately and were quickly dealt with by Tong Wu.

The battle around Mo Kedan ended without hesitation. When they heard the news of the surrender of the Mo Kedan defenders, the residents of the city had a few suspicious dreams. They could not believe that this stronghold would last for less than two days and be destroyed by the army of the Forgotten Realm just like that. Of course, many people didn't know the inside story and only attributed the defeat to the incompetence of the Imperial Army and the generals.

After entering the city, the army of the Forgotten Realm gathered the surrendered troops according to Allen's instructions. The surrender army was surprisingly large. Apart from the 30,000 Shadow Army that Alan had designed to kill at Reaper's Hill, there were more than 20,000 troops left in the original garrison, plus the 100,000 troops that Rupert had sent over later. Over the past two days, he had only lost over a thousand lives in battle, and thousands of people had been wounded. Such a large number of people made Allen feel indigestible. And too many prisoners could easily lead to a mutiny, after Allen discussed with everyone. Remove the equipment of the 100,000 Shadow Army, temporarily guard the barracks, and send a few officers out of the city, letting them return to the empire to convey Allen's message.

Alan gave a long list of figures. This was the ransom for the 100,000 Shadow Army. The ransom could be exchanged for materials of equal value. Among the materials exchanged, Allen gave priority to food and airships, followed by equipment and ordnance, and finally other items such as medicines. As for the remaining 20,000-odd people, they were scattered and mixed into the private armies of the generals, and Tong Wu was asked to help screen out 2,000 people to form a team, which Allen would manage and command himself.

After dealing with the surrender, he had to appease the big shots in the city. These bigwigs were either businessmen or union presidents. The only difference was that they wanted to know Allen's attitude. Forty to fifty people had been invited to Gurant's City Lord's Mansion. This City Lord's Mansion had naturally become Allen's landing place. The people waiting in the hall had already begun whispering to each other in private, feeling confused about their future fate.

These people were most afraid of losing the power and wealth in their hands. Many of them said that if they had known that the Imperial Army would not last for two days, they should have withdrawn from Mokedan in advance. Of course, it was too late to regret it now. After Allen entered the city, he implemented a series of military measures. These measures were generally tight inside and tight outside. The Residual Army guarded several city gates that left Mokedan. The roads to the north were also completely blocked. Unless there was a pass, not a single mosquito could fly over.

Before these people arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, several caravans had already attempted to take advantage of the fact that Mok Dan had not completely stabilized and left. Unexpectedly, they had encountered a checkpoint. The result of their charge was the annihilation of the entire army, and Allen told the inhabitants of Moktan of his determination with concrete action. As for those who stayed in the city, as long as they did not attack the army, there was basically no restriction. Of course, public places like bars are naturally completely closed during these times of emergency. As for when they would continue to open, it depended on the attitudes of the dozens of people in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

Such a small group of people were the ones who formed the top of the pyramid in the city of Mokedan. Their attitudes will affect the future of the city and hundreds of thousands of its inhabitants, including, of course, their own. Everyone held their breath when they saw Alan walk into the arena in battle armor. Alan did not rush to speak. He smiled and swept over them before saying, "Everyone is a big shot in the city, so I won't beat around the bush." Everyone should have witnessed the Battle of Mokedan this time. The Berserker Bali, several Empire Generals, and 30,000 Empire Army soldiers who died under our command. So look, the empire is not invincible. And I will continue to fight. Mockdale is definitely not my starting point. I will continue on this path until I see Demoic Ring City. "

"Believe it or not, it won't be long before you hear the name of a third person besides the two supreme beings, the Black Emperor and the Demon King. That's me, the Dark King."

A cold laugh came from the crowd.

Alan's eyes landed on the man like lightning. This person did not flinch and directly stood out to ask, "So, Lord Alan means that you will be with the Autarch, Lieluo?"

"Any problems?" Alan asked.

"No problem, but before that, no one knew about the Dark King or Lord Alan? So I'm curious, where did you get your confidence from?"

Alan smiled and said, "Before the establishment of the Demonic Shadow Empire, before Frius betrayed the Demon King, who knew about Spenak? Who knew about the Black Emperor? The name of an expert has always been given to me, and I'm no exception. I haven't heard of it now, but that doesn't mean I won't. Are you satisfied with that?"

Seeing that he had used the two Sovereigns as an example to refute Wudou, the man could only groan, but did not continue to ask any more questions. He immediately retreated back into the crowd.

Allen looked at the others and said, "I know exactly what you're worried about right now." Here, I can assure you that what you were before, what you are now, and what you will be in the future. I will not waver in your wealth or power. There is only one condition. Everyone, you must lend me your full support when I need it. Of course, I will not let you guys work in vain. For example, if I want to buy food from one of you, you can't substandard it and I will pay the full price. Of course, this price needed to be carefully discussed. Generally speaking, I want to maintain a cooperative relationship with you. If I can continue fighting like this, I believe that you will also receive a lot of benefits. If you die in battle, you wouldn't be betraying the empire. I also believe that a supreme supreme being doesn't need to argue with you about this. "

Allen paused for a moment before continuing, "Of course, you won't cooperate. Then I'll give you three days to leave safely. However, all your assets in the city will be left behind. I will only leave you with the necessary water and food. As for your choice, I'm sure you will be able to weigh the stakes and make the right choice."

"You don't have to make a decision now. I'll give you all one day to think about it." After Alan finished speaking, he nodded to Tong Wu and said, "Let's see him off."

After sending these big shots off, Jia Ya of the Black Cat Guild came to see Alan. This petite woman was like a lazy cat. She shrunk into a chair and tidied up her messy hair while saying, "I've tracked down the Berserk Shadow Army in Leaving City. My men are watching them. Lord Alan, when are we leaving?"

Alan smiled and said, "Of course, the sooner the better. The Berserk Shadow Army is Demonic Shadow Empire's elite. I can give them back the Shadow Army, but not the Berserk Shadow Army. How many such elites can be killed, right?"

"That's right. If you want to chase me, then hurry up. Otherwise, with their feet, my men will soon be unable to catch up."
