Zenit Empire. [ ]

A light drizzle was falling from the sky, the road was muddy, the air was cold and damp, the sky was low and overcast, and dark clouds blocked out the stars.

The atmosphere was oppressive.

A group of about forty or fifty people temporarily camped out at the foot of Twin Tower Peaks.

Unlike other refugees and defeated soldiers who fled in panic from the already fallen capital of Saint Petersburg to Chambord City, these people did not seem flustered, and even had time to set up a few tents to take shelter from the rain.

This is where King of Chambord Alexander, first slew his first cry, and where he fought the former " Sun Golden Knight," Chris Sutton, here, severing the Twin Tower Peaks and shocking the entire empire.

It was around that time that Sun Fei became known to many people in the empire.

Twin Tower Peaks became a place where many bards found inspiration, and many warriors came here to observe the former battlefield and try to gain enlightenment.

Today, the glory of the past has not yet faded, but the Zenit Empire has collapsed, and Chris Sutton, one of the protagonists of the past, has also fallen.

Beneath the Twin Tower Peaks, a chilling wind and cold rain evoked a sense of melancholy.

The tent door in the very center opened, and the strategist, Old Arjen, with a solemn expression, walked out.

Following behind him was the young Modrić.

"We're already over a thousand kilometers from the capital. If we activate the [ Ultra-Long-Distance Magic Teleport Array ] now, the Barcelona Extreme Dao shouldn't notice us." Old Arjen thought for a moment and said, "Order the soldiers to Teleport array. We need to get back to Chambord City as quickly as possible. Frank and the other two, as well as Lady Paris, need immediate treatment; we can't delay any longer."

"Okay." Modrić nodded. "I'll take care of this."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the other tents.

" Alexander..." A sudden, heart-wrenching cry rang out from inside the tent.

A hint of joy flashed across Old Arjen's face as he turned and entered the tent.

The temperature inside the tent was much milder under the warmth of the charcoal stove lit by torches. In the center of the tent were four simple but comfortable beds, on which lay the Golden Lion Frank Lampard, the Necromancer Hasselbaink, Batistuta, one of the elders of the Black-Robed Holy Temple, and the Alluring Witch Paris. Around the beds were several ordinary doctors with solemn expressions, doing what they could to treat and maintain the patients.

Because they were worried that using magical methods would attract the attention Extreme Dao powerful figures in Barcelona and lead to their pursuit, the four of them could only be treated primarily with physical methods.

The one who exclaimed earlier was none other than the Alluring Witch Paris, who was in a coma due to a high fever.

The Witch, who had been unconscious, seemed to be improving. Although still unconscious, her complexion was better. As if she were having a nightmare, her limbs twitched and she struggled, letting out screams. Since falling unconscious, she had called out the name ' Alexander ' more than thirty or forty times...

Old Arjen came to the bedside, took out a bottle of [ Life Restoration Elixir ] from his storage ring, and had a female healer feed it to the Witch. [ ]

A day earlier, when Old Arjen and the Saint arrived at the north gate of Saint Petersburg, nearly 100,000 Imperial troops had been almost completely wiped out. Paris was also exhausted and seriously injured, with holes all over her body and one arm cut off. She was fighting on by the last breath.

If Old Arjen and the others had arrived even a minute later, the Witch would likely have perished.

In the critical moment, old Arjen rescued Paris, but was then pursued by Barcelona's powerful warriors who arrived later.

They had been fleeing for their lives, and if it weren't for the magical artifacts and scrolls from the [ Madman's Laboratory ], they would probably have been prisoners or corpses by now.

Eventually, they finally managed to shake off their pursuers temporarily.

However, Old Arjen and the others no longer dared to use Dou Qi or magic, because the fluctuations in power would easily attract the attention of Extreme Dao local experts who would then hunt them down. They could only escape like ordinary refugees, relying on horses and walking.

Before rescuing Paris, Old Arjen found the three Golden Lion, Lampard and his companions, severely injured and unconscious, at a secret gathering point in the capital known only to the high-ranking officials of Chambord City. It was unimaginable what kind of opponents these three Extreme Dao figures had encountered to be so badly injured. If it weren't for the escape methods left behind by His Majesty Alexander, they would probably be dead by now.

According to the physician, the three Extreme Dao experts' auras were disordered, their bodies were filled with a terrifying power, their condition was extremely bad, and they had fallen into a deep coma.

Along the way, Old Arjen repeatedly used [ Life Healing Potion ] and [ Vitality Restoration Elixir ] to treat the four's injuries. However, Lampard, Hasselbaink, and Batistuta all possessed an extremely terrifying alien power that constantly clashed with their inherent power, which the two potions could not expel. Paris, on the other hand, was too exhausted to fully recover from her injuries, and the treatment was not very effective. All four remained in a temporary coma.

Now, the Witch Paris seems to have recovered some of her strength, and in her deep sleep, she keeps calling out Sun Fei's name.

After checking on the three people's condition, Old Arjen ordered the physician to prepare for their transfer and provide them with various nursing care. Just then, a Saint entered and reported on the progress of the magic Teleport's installation. It had reached the point where it could be activated at any time to make a dial-up Teleport.

"Start."

Old Arjen did not hesitate for a moment.

Soon, after the concealment array was set up around the camp, an astonishing magical power spread out, and the [ Ultra-Long-Distance Teleport Magic Array ] was activated. It immediately dialed the Teleport of Chambord City [ Sky City ]. All the work proceeded in an orderly manner, and Lampard and the other three were transported back to Chambord City through the Teleport in the first instance.

As the last figure of Old Arjen disappeared into the Teleport, the remaining Saint had just disassembled the [ Ultra-Long-Distance Magic Teleport Array ], stored it in their outer rings, and concealed it when waves of Dou Qi rippled through the sky. The figures of four or five Moon Class Great Perfection powerhouses from the Barcelona Empire appeared in the sky.

"Strange, I clearly sensed strong magical fluctuations in this area just now, it should have been Zenit remnants using magical power, how did they suddenly disappear?"

"Perhaps it was a Teleport magic array that Teleport them to another location."

"Well, Zenit has already fallen. Where can these poor rats hide? In all this world, it seems that only that damned Chambord City is their last stronghold?"

"Hehe, how long can a tiny first-class vassal state protect them? Why don't the five of us go to Chambord City and wipe out this little vassal state while we're at it? Let the Zenit people be utterly hopeless, and maybe we can even catch a few escaped members of the Zenit Imperial Family. That would be a great achievement."

"Haha, not bad, not bad, that's a good idea, let's go together."

The five Barcelona -Moon Class Great Perfection experts discussed for a while in the sky, then transformed into five streaks of light and sped off towards Chambord City.

I'm so sorry there's only one update today.
