Chapter 299: The Fall of Lentini

It was a dim room, the sunlight was blocked by thick curtains, and it felt like evening during the day.

A woman lay on the bed with her eyes closed, her chest rising and falling quietly.

Sitting beside the bed was a tall young man, dressed simply, with his head lowered quietly, like a piece of wood.

After an unknown amount of time, the door opened gently and Onivia walked in, dressed in a black dress.

The young man looked back at her and turned away again.

"John, Uncle Sean said you haven't been out for a few days, are you okay?"

The young man did not answer.

Onivia was not annoyed and asked softly: "I want to take you and Auntie to Balarenka, where you will be safer, okay?"

The young man still said nothing.

“Although Raven is gone, he must want you to live well, right?

Even if you don't want to, you have to think about your aunt."

Hearing his mother, John's eyes became a little angry, and he finally spoke:
"Mom and I are staying with my brother and not going anywhere."

His voice was hoarse, but extremely firm.

Onivia felt a pain in her heart and said softly:
"But Raven is gone now. Don't let him worry about you after he dies, okay?"

John looked around the familiar house, his eyes suddenly moistened:

"My brother is here, and mom and I are going to stay with him."

Onivia covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down her face.

The door closed gently, and the room fell into darkness again.

John's broad frame couldn't help but tremble.

He slowly knelt down, curled his head into Catherine's arms, and finally sobbed.

Ho!
A hoarse hissing sound was heard.

Outside the city of Lentini, rows of Holy Alliance troops appeared on the horizon.

They are mainly composed of intelligent people, and there are also many moon spirit tribes, three major banshees, and moonlight soldiers.

The leader was none other than Koku, the eldest prince of the Huangyou tribe.

At this time, Koku's eyes were bloodshot and he looked extremely haggard.

He stayed in the Moye Canyon for many days, during which he repeatedly repelled the human reinforcements, and thought that he would receive the news that Riven had been annihilated. Who knew -

What he waited for was the news of his brother Tira's death!

That damn human only left his brother with two legs. Koku felt heartbroken when he thought of this.

The tribesman who reported the news was so frightened that he kept talking about how powerful the other side was.

In a rage, he chopped off the dog's head.

However, this was far from enough. With nowhere to vent his rage, he targeted Onivia and Rody, the reinforcements.

The two groups of people started a chase on the plains of Pas.

Eventually the human army split into two groups and each retreated back to the city, while Koku followed Onivia's trail and chased all the way to Lentini.

An urgent alarm bell rang on the city wall, and Sean and others climbed up to the top of the city wall.

"It's the Holy Alliance! Why are there so many people!" Sean said in a deep voice.

He roughly estimated that the other side had at least 10,000 people.

If Raven was still here, they wouldn't be afraid, but now...

Sean looked to both sides. Are their minds still here?
Some mercenaries had already come to him to talk about leaving.

Besides, apart from Onivia, there are no strong ones among them.

"These aliens are really courting death!"

Onivia looked at him with hatred.

"Uncle Sean, call everyone who can fight. I will make sure they never come back."

Sean nodded and said in a deep voice to the soldiers around him:
“I know that after Raven left, some of you had your own ideas.

I won't stop you from doing this, but now that the aliens are attacking, it's impossible for you to leave even if you want to.

If we don’t defend ourselves with all our might, the city will be destroyed and we will die.”

At this point, Sean drew his sword and shouted:
“At this moment, I want you to fight for Lentini one more time!
Not because of the contract, but because we are all Dantes!
Dante's men are born to kill their enemies!"

There was a long silence.

Soon, a mercenary tore off the white cloth on his arm, drew his sword, and said:
"I do have to leave, but that won't stop me from killing a few bastards."

"Damn it, kill them!" Several more mercenaries stood up.

"If you're a man, fuck him!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!
The mercenaries drew their swords.

"Alright! Today we will drink the blood of our enemies to see you off!"

Although Sean's hair was half white, he was still as heroic as ever and shouted.

"Huey!" "Here, uncle!"

"Call all the capable fighters in the city. Lentini's life and death depends on this moment!"

"Leader!"

"Sophie, Shura!"

"Uncle!"

"Control the burning array well and help us kill the enemy!"

"Don't worry, I will use their blood to commemorate Riven today." Shura said murderously.

"Ms. Onivia, I will need you to restrain the opponent's strong man later, but please don't take any risks."

Sean said, looking at the Archduke's daughter.

"If you have no other choice, please leave through the back gate."

"As long as I am here, Lentini will be here!" Onivia said with her head held high.

Sean smiled bitterly: "This is not the time to act rashly. You are of noble status, why take risks with us?"

There was one more thing he didn't say.

At this moment, there are only a few hundred people in Lentini who can fight. Even with the two thousand people sent by the Grand Duke, they are still a considerable fighting force.

But Onivia had previously taken a thousand cavalrymen to look for Raven, and when she returned, only a hundred were left. Now, all he had were less than two thousand warriors.

He was outnumbered, alone against five opponents, and there were many strong ones among them, so he was really not sure of winning.

"Kill!" Koku roared under the city wall.

The next moment, a wilderness totem appeared on his face, and he entered a beastly state, rushing towards Lentini first...

"Raven, I smell a strong smell of blood."

Lanster suddenly stopped while walking and said solemnly.

"Smell of blood? Which direction?" Raven sniffed hard, but there was nothing unusual.

"Lentini."

Raven's face changed.

When it comes to perception of blood and death, no one can compare to Lanster.

"I think maybe some blind guys are coming." Raven sneered.

"It's a good opportunity for my people to exercise." Hesa ​​licked his lips hard.

"Full speed ahead!" Raven took a step forward.

Their mounts had been abandoned during their crossing of the Gorgon Mountains, and now they were all on foot.

boom! boom!
Under the city of Lentini, dozens of Shield Mountain Giants pushed battering rams and rammed the city gates violently.

The city gate has sunken inward, the gap is getting bigger and bigger, and it may be destroyed at any time.

The car had been crashing for half an hour without any suppression.

No matter how strong the city gate is, it cannot withstand such an impact.

The city wall had been involved in a bloody battle for a long time, with corpses constantly falling.

With the help of the magic array, the human race's combat power increased greatly, and they were struggling to resist the enemy's attack.

However, they were too few in number, and they lacked a strong leader or a strong backbone force.

These people had all died in the battle with Revan.

If it weren't for the Star City, they wouldn't have been able to hold out for even half a quarter of an hour.

The situation is heading for the worst.

Finally, with the strong support of the three banshees and the Star-Attracting Clan, a team of Titan Moon Spirits climbed to the top of the city.

Guarding this section of the city wall were the Lennon Cavalry. They were brave, but in front of the four-meter-tall Titan Moon Spirit, these warriors were slaughtered.

The gap was getting bigger and bigger, and a large number of the Huangyou tribe poured in from the gap and joined in the killing of the human guards.

Having lost the advantage of being on high ground and being outnumbered, the defenders completely collapsed.

Dead bodies, heads, broken arms and limbs kept falling from the top of the city walls, and the situation quickly became desperate.

"Ms. Onivia, get out of here!" Sean yelled.

He could already see that Lentini would be in trouble today.

"I won't leave! I will fight to the end!" Onivia shouted.

Seeing the situation deteriorate, she became anxious.

But at this time, she was being suppressed by Koku and another heavenly banshee, and she could hardly protect herself, let alone rescue others.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the heavy city gate of Lentini finally collapsed, leaving a large gap.

"Roar! Ah!" The nearby alien races rushed in howling.

Lentini, the pearl of the northwest, finally fell.
