I Have A Game Clone

61 Retreat

In the Wangnan grassland, the Full Moon Army was marching forward with great momentum.

In the middle of the army, the commander, Olicia, sat on a huge white tiger. She wore tight-fitting silver leather armor that outlined her beautiful curves.

An assassin’s figure flickered and appeared in front of Olicia.

“Lady Olicia, we’ve received a report from the frontlines. The Ole Empire’s Eastern Expedition Army has been defeated. More than 100,000 soldiers have died. They no longer have the strength to fight.”

Olivia was stunned for a few seconds before reacting.

“The Eastern Expedition Army is the Ole Empire’s main force in foreign wars. They have the demonic ape blood guards, which are known to be invincible in close combat, and the fierce tiger troop, which is extremely powerful in individual combat.”

“Moreover, we agreed to attack simultaneously from the south and west only after our army arrives. Why did the Ole Empire bring forward the battle?”

The shadow assassin could not answer Olicia’s question. She was just a tool to pass on information.

Olicia was extremely cautious. She would not allow the Army to take another step forward until she had a clear understanding of the situation.

She waved her hand and ordered, “All troops, stop advancing. Wait for news on the spot. Soldiers, don’t get off your mounts. Stay on alert.”

Half an hour later, the reconnaissance battalion returned with a deserter from the Eastern Expedition Army.

The deserter was covered in blood, and it was unknown if it was his own blood or his comrades’. His helmet had long been lost, and his hair was disheveled, making him look like a homeless man.

Seeing that the deserter was still in shock and his face was pale, Olicia said, “Give him a cup of moon holy water.”

Moon holy water was a special product of the moon elves. It was produced in the moon well blessed by the moon god and could greatly restore one’s physical and mental strength.

“Thank you, my Lord!”

The deserter expressed his gratitude in a hoarse voice. After drinking the moon holy water, he slowly calmed down.

“What happened?” asked Olicia. “Why did the Eastern Expedition Army lose so quickly?”

Hearing the question, the deserter recalled everything that had just happened. His expression was once again filled with fear as he replied in a trembling voice, “Meteor magic, overwhelming meteor magic… My comrades were talking to me a second ago, and the next second, they were burned to death by the wind and fire magic generated by the explosion. The whole camp was in chaos. I ran around like a headless fly. I remember stepping on many things but I couldn’t care about them anymore… I kept running and running, away from the explosion, away from the pursuers…”

The deserter seemed to be on the verge of a mental breakdown. One of the priests behind Olicia cast a calming spell, and he finally calmed down.

Olicia’s expression changed. Meteor magic?

Could it be that the star elves had regained control of the divine weapon Starfall?

No, that’s not right. Starfall was starlight magic. The meteorites that came from Starlight definitely would not contain wind or fire magic. Olicia continued asking, “Do you still remember the characteristics of the meteor magic?”

The deserter didn’t answer the question and muttered, “A few hours ago, we arrived at Duohuang City in advance. Just like before, Lord Calino divided us into two groups and stationed us outside the city.”

“I belong to the wolf knights, so I was stationed on the left with Lord Sisso.”

“After Lord Sisso sent out the reconnaissance battalion to investigate the enemy’s situation, he ordered us to rest and recuperate on the spot, waiting for the Elven army to arrive.”

“I don’t know how long I’ve been resting. Suddenly, a dense red light appeared in the sky. The light moved extremely fast, and soon, it turned from a small dot to the size of a rock and smashed down fiercely.”

The deserter’s body began to tremble as he recalled, “Bang! Bang! Bang! The explosion has started. It’s all over… It’s all over.”

Olicia had a rough idea of the situation. The Eastern Expedition Army did not take the initiative to attack. They were waiting for the Elven army as promised, but they were suddenly attacked by Duohuang.

It seemed that someone in the Duohuang City had mastered a super magic spell, which could release countless red magic bombs in an instant.

At the thought of this, Olicia’s heart palpitated with fear. Fortunately, the Eastern Expedition Army had arrived first. If the Full Moon Army had arrived first, the ones who would have been defeated and destroyed would have been her own army.

Olicia knew very well that the 100,000 men army she led was on par with the Ole Empire’s 200,000 men army in terms of strength.

The result would have been the same if it had been the Full Moon Army.

“Reconnaissance battalion and vanguard battalion, move out together and do your best to gather all information on the battlefield. If you encounter the Duohuang Army, do not engage them. Focus on gathering information.”

The enemy was in the dark while she was out in the open. This was a great taboo for an army in battle. Before they could figure out the situation in Duohuang, Olicia could only order the army to stay on guard.

As the reconnaissance battalion continued to investigate, more and more Eastern Expedition Army soldiers were found, and their words were corroborated with each other’s.

The scouts from the reconnaissance battalion also brought back the latest information.

“My Lady, Duohuang has built a five-meter-tall city wall. It’s unbelievable. In just a few days, walls have been built on all four sides of the city, each of which is over ten thousand meters long.”

“My Lady, there is a strange weapon on the city wall. The base of the weapon is fixed on the city wall, and there is a long pillar in front.”

“For this map, we have sacrificed hundreds of scouts.”

As more and more information was gathered, Olicia finally understood everything. Duohuang City had built a weapon that could release magic bombs. The weapon’s attack range was very far, at least three kilometers away.

Hundreds of such weapons were installed on each wall.

After figuring out the truth, Olicia looked at the map of the outskirts of Duohuang, frowning.

After a long time, she took a deep breath and said, “All troops, retreat!”

Upon hearing this order, priest Ludo, who had been standing behind her and was also the army supervisor sent by Elder Silverdew, quickly said, “We can’t retreat! Lady Olicia, you’d better think this through. If you retreat, the Elven Empire’s reputation will be ruined! Not only did the Dark Moon Vanguards sacrifice in vain, but we’ll also never be able to take over this strategic piece of land.”

Olicia’s eyes turned cold as she stared at Ludo with a sharp gaze.

“I’m the commander of the army. If I say retreat, then we should retreat!”

Ludo was frightened by Olicia’s gaze. He said, “Alright! Just retreat, I’ll see how you’ll explain this to Elder Silverdew!”

After he finished speaking, he left.

As Ludo left in anger, the deputy commander said worriedly, “Lady Olicia, you’ve saved the warriors’ lives by retreating like this. However, Elder Silverheron will definitely blame you. Her only son died in Duohuang.”

After making the decision to retreat, the burden was lifted from Olicia’s heart. She felt more relaxed and said nonchalantly, “Duohuang City is surrounded by plains, which was originally not conducive to the defense of the city. However, the situation is different now that they’ve got magic bomb weapons.”

“Anyone who dared to attack Duohuang would be attacked by magic bombs from three kilometers away.”

“In this situation, it’s meaningless for us to make sacrifices to attack Duohuang. We have no chance of winning at all. As the commander, I must order a retreat.”

“Moreover, it is true that the strategic position of Duohuang is extremely important to the Ole and Brad Empires.”

“However, for us elves, we are sandwiched between the two human empires, so conquering Duohuang is not that important to us.”

“It’s just that after Duohuang is occupied by others, we’ll have to spend some troops to set up defenses in the North.”

“If Grand Elder Silverdew wants to punish me, I’ll accept it. It just so happens that after so many years of fighting, I’m tired. When I return to Biyue City, I’m ready to resign from my military post and go home to rest.”

“My hometown’s floral tea is sweet and fragrant. I haven’t had it for more than ten years, and it’s already become a taste in my memory.”

Olicia’s face was filled with reminiscence. She, who had always been valiant and extraordinary, revealed a rare gentle side. Her feminine beauty was fully displayed at this moment.

Seeing this, the deputy general stopped trying to persuade her.

The Full Moon Army retreated.

They came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

When Ning Shi received this news, he felt an infinite amount of regret in his heart.

These were all experience bags, why did they run away just like that!

“Do you think it’s easy for me to level up?” he asked in heart.

Snow Fog saw the unwillingness and vexation in Ning Shi’s eyes and was extremely touched.

[Snow Fog saw your desire to destroy the Moon Elves’ army and thought that you wanted to avenge her. She was very touched. Character intimacy +2. Current character intimacy: 96.]

Ning Shi was stunned.

He said inwardly, “Snow Fog, can you be more reserved? If this goes on, it won’t end well!”
