Chapter 1079: Returning to Chambord City (Part One)
-The Zenit Empire-
It was raining, and the road was muddy. The air was cold and moist, and the dark clouds were close to the ground and blocked the sky.
The atmosphere was extremely suppressing.
A team of about 50 people set up a temporary campsite beside the Dual-Tower Mountain.
Compared to the refugees and defeated soldiers who escaped from the already conquered city of St. Petersburg, these people didn"t look so anxious, and they had time to build a few waterproof tents.
This was the place where King Alexander of Chambord obtained his initial fame. The king battled Golden Sun Knight Chris Sutton here, and they destroyed the peaks of the Dual-Tower Mountain and shocked the entire empire.
It was the battle that made people in the Zenit Empire know about Fei.
After that, Dual-Tower Mountain became the place where many traveling poets tried to spark their inspirations. Also, many warriors came here to check out the battlefield and tried to gain inspiration as well.
Right now, the glory around Dual-Tower Mountain still remained, but the Zenit Empire was destroyed, and one of the main characters of that battle, Chris Sutton, had also fallen.
The cold wind blew around Dual-Tower Mountain and carried the rain with it, and the scene was a little melancholy.
The curtain door of a tent was lifted, and Old Aryang walked out with a serious expression.
[Young Man] Modric walked out of the tent following Old Aryang.
“We are about 500 kilometers away from St. Petersburg. If we construct the super-long-distance teleportation array now, we shouldn"t be detected by the top-tier masters of Barcelona,” Old Aryang said after thinking for a bit, “Order the soldiers to construct the teleportation array. We need to return to Chambord City as soon as we can. Lampard and the other two supreme masters of Chambord as well as Ms. Paris need to be healed as soon as possible. We can"t waste more time.”
“Ok.” Modric nodded and said, “I will go and arrange this.”
After saying that, Modric turned around and walked toward another tent.
“Alexander…” Suddenly, a high-pitched scream sounded inside the tent that the two just walked out from.
A joyous expression appeared on Old Aryang"s face, and he instantly turned around and walked in.
With torches and furnaces in the tent, the temperature was much warmer inside. There were four simple yet comfortable beds in the tent, and Golden Lion Lampard, Undead Made Hazel Bank, Elder Batistuta of [Black-Cloth Shrine], and Demonic Woman Paris lay on these beds. A few ordinary doctors surrounded the beds and looked grim, and they were trying their best to heal and maintain these four people"s conditions.
Since the team was afraid that magic healing techniques would create energy fluctuations and might be noticed by the top-tier masters of Barcelona, only physical methods were used to treat these four people.
The scream that Old Aryang heard came from Demonic Woman Paris who was still unconscious and was having a fever.
The Demonic Woman was unconscious, but now it seemed like her condition was a bit better. Although she hadn"t woken up yet, her complexion looked healthier.
Right now, as if she was having a nightmare, her body twitched as she screamed again and again. Since she fainted until now, she had screamed "Alexander" more than 40 times.
Old Aryang arrived at Paris" bedside and took out a bottle of [Health Potion] from his storage ring. Then, he pa.s.sed it to a female doctor, and she helped the Demonic Woman drink it.
A day ago, when Old Aryang and the saint seiyas rushed to the northern gate of St. Petersburg, the Zenitian troop that was made of close to 100,000 people was almost wiped out, and Paris was at the verge of death. She was severely injured, and wounds could be seen all over her body. One of her arms was severed, and she was battling with her iron will and last breath.
Chapter 1079: Returning to Chambord City (Part Two)
If Old Aryang and others got to the northern gate one minute later, the Demonic Woman would have died alongside other soldiers of Zenit.
At the critical moment, Old Aryang and the saint seiyas saved Paris, but they were chased after by the masters of Barcelona.
If the team didn"t have the magic items and magic scrolls created by the Mad Scientists" Laboratory, they could have become captives or corpses.
In the end, the team finally escaped from the enemies momentarily.
However, Old Aryang and others didn"t dare to use warrior energy or magic energy anymore since energy fluctuations could easily attract the attention of top-tier masters of Barcelona. Therefore, they could only escape like other ordinary refugees, relying on horses and walking.
Before saving Paris, Old Aryang went to a secret gathering spot in St. Petersburg that only the top-level officials of Chambord knew about, and he found Lampard, Batistuta, and Hazel Bank who were severely injured and had fainted. It was hard to imagine what kind of opponent that these three masters encountered. Their bodies were critically damaged, and they would have died if they didn"t use the escape methods that Alexander His Majesty taught them.
According to what the doctors said, these three top-tier masters" energies were chaotic inside their bodies, and a terrifying force occupied their bodies. Their conditions were terrible, and they fell into unconsciousness.
On the way, Old Aryang tried to heal these four people using [Health Potions] and [Stamina Potions].
Lampard, Hazel Bank, and Batistuta"s bodies contained that terrifying force, and it was foreign and continued to collide with their core energies. Therefore, the effects of these two types of potions weren"t helpful since they couldn"t expel this force. On the other hand, Paris fainted due to extreme exhaustion and depletion of spirit energy, and she also couldn"t wake up easily after her physical injuries healed.
That was why all four of them were still unconscious.
But now, it seemed like Demonic Woman Paris" spirit energy recovered a little, and she was calling Fei"s name even though she was not yet conscious.
After seeing these four people"s conditions, Old Aryang told the doctors that the team was about to move and ordered them to take extra care with the four injured people.
While Old Aryang was still speaking, a saint seiya walked into the tent and reported the progress of the installation of the teleportation array. Right now, it could be activated at any time using magic energy, and they could dial up the connecting portals and teleport.
“Let"s start!” Old Aryang didn"t hesitate.
Soon, after stealth arrays were placed around the campsite, a powerful streak of magic energy appeared. As soon as the super-long-distant magic teleportation array was activated, it instantly dialed up and connected to the teleportation array inside Sky City. All kinds of processes were performed, and the four injured people were instantly teleported back to Chambord.
After Old Aryang disappeared into the portal, the few saint seiyas who stayed behind quickly disa.s.sembled the super-long-distance magic teleportation array, placed the components into storage rings, and went stealth.
In the next moment, a series of warrior energy fluctuations appeared in the sky. About five peak Full Moon Elites of Barcelona showed up.
“Strange. I clearly sensed powerful magic energy fluctuation in this area. Those remaining b*stards of Zenit should be using magic. How come they disappeared?”
“Perhaps they used magic spells that have teleportation functionalities, and they instantly went to another place.”
“Eh, the Capital of Zenit is already conquered; where can those poor mice hide? On this vast continent, it seems like only that d.a.m.n Chambord City is their last base, right?”
“Hehe, it is only a little level 1 affiliated kingdom. How long can it last? How about the five of us go to Chambord right now? We can destroy this little affiliated kingdom and make all Zenitians feel desperate. Perhaps we can capture a few members of the Royal Family of Zenit who escaped, and it will be big merit.”
“Haha! You are right! This is a great method! Let"s go!”
The five peak Full Moon Elites of Barcelona discussed in the air. Then, they turned into five streaks of light beams and dashed toward the direction of Chambord City.
