Tauren Overlord

Lu Heng couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"It's really difficult. We're directly facing the Governor."

Helena's voice became anxious:

"Hold on a little longer, we will come to pick you up together."

Since the portal can no longer be used, the only thing left is to lead the survivors of the commune back step by step!

But how can this be simple?

The main force of the Imperial Lords' Legion had not yet been destroyed, and their numbers were still far greater than those of the old peasant infantry of the commune.

The imperial army is also more elite. Not to mention their cavalry, there are more than 100 spellcasters alone, which is impossible to be dealt with in a few strokes.

Now, in order to rescue Lu Heng, Helena seemed to want to mobilize all the people in the Kongwu Monastery to come out.

Lu Heng knew that he could not persuade her, so he had to remind her:

"Do you remember the enemy's deployment?"

Before rescuing the old farmer of the commune, Lu Heng detected Edric's intention to ambush the reinforcements through the landing point vision.

But he didn't expect that the ambush on the harpy witch seemed to be just a side effect, and the person they really wanted to trap seemed to be him.

"Well, we'll be careful."

The war machinery of the Lord's Legion is also an issue that cannot be ignored.

For example, the ballista can cause heavy damage to the harpy witch.

Even if they are not used for air defense, simply laying these crossbow carts flat can cause far more damage to the thick-skinned and tough Minotaur than ordinary crossbow arrows.

If they encounter them, the Tauren warriors, including Kamun, will be in danger.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the people surrounded by Edric can really live to see the moment they meet the Harpy Witch.

But Governor Edric obviously didn't intend to let them live until then.

As the spherical face smashed into the ruins on the ground again, several more commune fighters lost their lives on the spot.

This is because Edric didn't know the specific deployment of the commune personnel and the various teams of the commune were hiding relatively scattered, so so few people died.

Gailtuler is once again gearing up to make something big.

In his opinion, these old farmers who dared to rebel should have been slaughtered long ago!

But before his father, the governor, showed up, his troops were beaten by Lu Heng.

Naturally, all plans to massacre the old farmers could not be implemented.

But with Edric joining the battlefield, Galtule felt that he was able to recover.

He began to summon magical waves again, preparing to start a magnificent massacre.

The attack magic that this third-level spellcaster can unleash will only be more powerful than Kamun's shock wave!

Just when he was about to summon the waves, he saw a portal suddenly opened in front of him.

Of course, the person who appeared in the door was Lu Heng, whom he had been thinking about all the time.

Gail Tuler suddenly had an evil thought: How dare you jump in front of me and die?

He immediately swung a wave of magic to engulf the minotaur in front of him.

However, just as he thought of this, he felt a pain in his temple, as if he had been suddenly hit by a blunt object.

When he turned his head, he saw that the gun with the padlock was already inserted straight into his head!

If he had not been a third-level warrior and had not activated some kind of automatic defense magic ripples, he would have died on the spot.

This made Gertuler feel sad and angry again - I wanted to kill you, but you came to kill me first?

At the same time, Lu Heng was a little depressed.

There is no damage even if you get shot in the head. This is too unbalanced.

It’s ok for a fourth-level warrior to have a diamond face, but you also want to be invincible?

There was really no other way, so Lu Heng had to take advantage of the moment when Gailtule was attracted by the padlock gun to give him another surprise.

Gailtule also quickly realized that something was wrong. If he just wanted to use a javelin to blow his head off, it didn't seem necessary to open a portal specifically.

So he turned around suddenly and saw Lu Heng throwing out another "brightest star in the night sky" in his hand, as if it was a gift carefully selected for him.

On that flashing thing, only the last number was still flashing.

This means that the Rune Bomb is about to explode!

Lu Heng also quickly pulled the padlock gun into the portal.

If the rune bomb exploded at this distance, wouldn't his headlock gun be shattered on the spot?

Let the butcher, Gertule, bear that tremendous power!

Lu Heng quickly closed the portal and ran away at the last moment before the rune bomb exploded completely.

Geltuler, who stayed where he was, changed his expression drastically again. He quickly summoned several layers of magic waves to wrap himself up.

But... it's too late!

Just as he was about to cast a spell, the rune bomb thrown at his face counted down to the last second.

boom! ! !

The earth trembled once again, and Geltulle's extremely hard corrugated shield was completely shattered in this violent explosion.

He was blown dozens of meters away, blood was oozing from many holes all over his body, and his consciousness began to blur.

At the end of his consciousness, he saw the end of his flight, and it seemed that a portal had opened.

The portal didn't seem to lead anywhere else, but to pure death.

However, at the moment when he was about to enter, a huge spherical face came flying in and smashed the portal, pushing Galtuler away from death.

Then it quickly unfolded again, wrapping up the half-dead Geltulle.

In this way, Lu Heng successfully restricted one of Edrick's faces.

If Lu Heng's speculation is correct, the total number of faces of this fourth-level strongman is likely to be four.

The author says:

Author's words: Thank you Wanxia for the coins, rewards, urging for updates and monthly tickets!

154. Until the Night Ends

A face floated in the sky to prevent Lu Heng from running away by opening the portal;

The two faces wrapped themselves around themselves, cautiously defending against any possible attack;

There was another face that was originally used to quickly slaughter the old farmer, but now it was temporarily restrained in order to save his precious son.

But when Lu Heng thought about it carefully, he soon suspected that Edric's "real body" might not be hidden behind those two layers of faces.

Maybe his real body is wrapped behind the "Giant Face of the Sky", which can isolate Lu Heng's transmission and is the safest place.

The three faces he has under the "Giant Face in the Sky" may all be baits.

Edric might have arranged this just to lure Lu Heng and make him use up his trump cards including the last rune bomb as soon as possible.

For a moment, Lu Heng felt helpless and surprised.

The governor, who already had an absolute military advantage, would actually go to this extent to deal with a newcomer whose rank was lower than his?

Then how will he encircle and suppress the old farmers in the commune?

Thinking of this, Lu Heng raised his landing point vision and observed the battle line in the distance without touching the limit of the "Giant Face of the Sky".

As expected, the imperial troops on the periphery were advancing towards the Commune's position, and it was obvious that they had already prepared for a siege.

Could it be that from the very beginning, Edric only regarded the encirclement troops on the inside as bait to capture Lu Heng?

This means that Lu Heng and Scarlett's hope of breaking out while Geltoule's troops were disintegrating has been shattered.

If the weak old peasants of the commune were allowed to break out of the booby trap at this time, they would only die faster.

For a powerful and cautious enemy like Edric, Lu Heng's only hope is that the opponent's psychic energy load also has a limit.

In particular, the practice of directly covering the sky with one's face may not be sustainable for a long time.

This expectation is essentially just a euphemism for "others have maces, but I have a skull."

But in an asymmetric war where the power is completely unbalanced, since the weaker party has no way to destroy the other side, endurance becomes the only solution.

Since you can't beat them, you can only find a way to live longer until the enemy can no longer beat you.

But when it comes to who will give up first... Lu Heng still can't be said to have any advantage.

At this moment, half of his psychic energy load has been used up. Even with the support of psychic crystals and psychic batteries, it is impossible for him to cast spells indefinitely.

Considering that he still has to face the encirclement of Edrick's 10,000-man army, the spiritual energy he will consume later will only be higher.

What's more, the enemy he faced was the rather cautious Edric.

He must have made rigorous plans for the use of his psychic energy, consciously avoiding reaching the limit of his psychic energy load too early.

In this extremely unfavorable situation where even a war of attrition could not be won, Lu Heng could only try to save as many people as possible.

He thought of Roman and his light cavalry, who had just returned from the Maritime Alliance in the north.

They are exhausted and should be camping outside Edric's encirclement. It will take until tomorrow to reach the Stone Forest Monastery.

They are 42 ordinary people who have not awakened any exclusive arts and do not have much combat ability.

If they don't evacuate quickly, they will most likely be wiped out by Edric's reinforcements.

Thinking of this, Lu Heng opened the psychic potato again and told Roman:

"My teleportation ability is blocked, and the enemies are all surrounding me... I may not be able to save many survivors."

Hearing this, Roman's expression suddenly changed:

"We can support the breakout."

Lu Heng frankly explained the actual situation he observed:

"The enemy is on guard both inside and outside, and is clearly ready to hunt us down."

Roman was silent for two seconds, then responded in a deep voice:

"I see. I will discuss this with my companions."

Lu Heng stopped trying to persuade him and turned his attention back to the battlefield in front of him.

……

Roman was a musical person and always carried a small six-string guitar with him.

At this moment, he once again embraced his inseparable companion and sang the ballad he wrote for the goddess:

"Love your eternal tenderness, love your sleeping face."

"I love your blue sky, and I love the tolerance of your earth."

"No matter how long you sleep, you will wake up eventually."

"I will love you till the end, till the end of the night."

As his companions woke up one after another to his singing, Roman introduced the situation of Lu Heng being surrounded.

Most of these Commune cavalrymen are veterans who have participated in the Commune more than once, and many of them are even older than Roman.

Their unanimous opinion was that they could not watch their compatriots die while they themselves retreated to a safe place.

But there was still one thing that was unresolved, and Roman planned to let everyone decide together:

"The Sea Alliance gave us 50 rune bombs, 3 of which have been handed over to the Tauren Overlord, leaving 47."

"But there are only 42 of us. Someone has to send back the remaining rune bombs."

"That person will be our witness to the final victory of the Commune. You choose!"

This decision did not seem as difficult as Roman thought. The veterans of the commune quickly gave their answer:
