84: I don't want to get involved in the fight

The green grass underfoot, which had just sprouted tender shoots, was trampled back and forth by these Barbarians and completely crushed.

When the war ended, this place would probably also turn into a bare patch.

Han Huohuo thought maliciously.

Sardin walked over, swinging his arms, looking arrogant. Han Huohuo didn't greet him either. Sardin's tent was very close, he lifted the tent flap and strode in.

"Huh?"

Han Huohuo was very surprised. The moment Sardin lifted the curtain, he saw that there seemed to be someone inside Sardin's tent.

Yes, Han Huohuo's eyesight was extremely sharp. There was a human inside the tent, certainly not a beauty, but a human with a face full of beard.

That man was wearing clothes unique to the Desert region, with somewhat of a sectarian characteristic.

Seeing Sardin enter, he remained seated steadily.

Han Huohuo was silent for a while. He didn't recognize that person, but he recognized the hat the person was wearing on his head, a beret common among soldiers on Earth, already very worn out, which he still couldn't bear to throw away, and the belt on his body was also particularly familiar...

That was also an Earthling who had transmigrated, and a soldier at that.

Could it be, that was a Lord?

A Lord from where?

No! The Lords in the Ten Thousand Mountains were all his allies, and he could see prompts, but there were no prompts for that Lord in the tent.

So who was he?

Why would Sardin be with a human Lord, and at such a critical moment?

Han Huohuo was silent for a moment.

He didn't want to stir up more trouble, he had just said so to Hua Mulan.

He simply turned and left.

Wanqing City faced a river on one side. The Barbarians had no navy and could not surround Wanqing City. Supplies would continuously arrive from the Tongtian River waterway.

On the third day, Li Dingbei seemed a bit dispirited. He didn't know what was wrong with the Barbarians, suddenly so crazy. If the Barbarians were to rush onto the city walls, the human soldiers really wouldn't be able to resist.

The attack speed of these Barbarians was too fast!

After the first day's probing, the Barbarians began to adopt the most brutal fighting style, launching a fierce assault against one side of the city wall!

The battle was much more intense. The Cyclops' stones were no longer thrown at people, but were specifically aimed at one side of the city wall and smashed fiercely.

After smashing for an entire day, cracks finally appeared in that solid city wall. Almost all the archers on that city wall were shaken to death.

An overwhelming army of Griffons swooped towards the Cyclops.

The Thunderbirds immediately rose into the air to meet the enemy, protecting the Cyclops.

The two types of large birds began to entangle in the sky. Feathers flew everywhere, and various birds collectively emitted piercing screeches.

The ferocious Thunderbirds' attack speed exceeded imagination. Although their numbers were much fewer than the Griffons, their killing power was astonishingly great. In the end, the Griffons were defeated and failed to ambush the Cyclops. The remaining few fled back into the city in disarray.

The Thunderbirds did not pursue either, they just guarded above the Cyclops.

Li Dingbei frowned.

Whether it was the Orc axe throwers or the Thunderbirds in the sky, their attack speed was too fast.

He clearly had the advantage of defending the city, but it was completely offset by the Barbarians' attack speed. The consumption on both sides was almost one-to-one.

Could the rumors be true?

The Barbarian King obtained the combined artifact, the Barbarians' Cruel Axe?

He also had the most powerful Royal Glory Cavalry, which was more suitable for field battles and not for defending the city. However, the Barbarian army was pressing forward with all its forces; the entire area in front of the city was densely packed with Orcs and wolf riders.

Coupled with the Barbarians' doubled attack speed effect, he no longer dared to send out the cavalry.

They fought until the night was pitch black, and both sides were exhausted before ceasing hostilities.

In the following days, there was repeated contention. After the city wall was breached, the scales of victory began to tilt towards the Barbarians.

After seven days of intense fighting, the city walls of Wanqing City finally collapsed with a crash. The Cyclops, a demigod-level unit specifically for sieges, smashed the city walls with sheer force.

With a demigod unit like the Cyclops, the Barbarians didn't even need siege engines.

Li Dingbei sighed. He knew that Wanqing City could not be defended. When they had the city walls, the human soldiers didn't have the advantage. Once they lost the city walls, they were even less likely to be a match for the Barbarians.

The Barbarian army surged into Wanqing City in one go.

Li Dingbei's defeated army left by boat.

The Barbarians were like leeches, leaving nothing alive wherever they went. Although the Barbarian King had ordered no massacres, it was impossible to completely control, and there was looting and slaughter everywhere.

"Follow the Vermilion Bird banner and go north to Tongtian City, that is your only way to survive!"

Hua Mulan shouted loudly, using mechanical soldiers to protect a city gate, occupying a passage, and riding back and forth in Wanqing City, shouting.

The rich and powerful people had already fled long ago.

The rest were ordinary people, running and wailing. All around were grotesque Barbarians, severed heads and limbs rolled on the ground, there were large fires everywhere, and everyone was terrified.

Hearing Hua Mulan's call, although they didn't know if it was true or false, they still rushed over following her guidance wholeheartedly.

When drowning, people couldn't help but cling to even a single straw.

Floating Turret guarded on the left and right, holding the Vermilion Bird banner. The Barbarians recognized this as the banner of Fire Barbarian God, and they all moved aside.

The converging flow of people became larger and larger, running out of the city with Hua Mulan.

Han Huohuo had not left yet. He rode his horse on the streets full of fire. Crying sounds came from the side. He turned his head and saw a family of three being chased and beaten by an Orc.

What a coincidence, he actually knew that uncle.

He rode over, and without a word, a brick flew out, knocking that Orc unconscious onto the ground.

"Come with me!"

The uncle and his family of three, still shaken, looked up at this Barbarian General, feeling a sense of familiarity.

"Your family's wine is good. Go to Wanqing City and brew wine for me," Han Huohuo said with a smile.

The uncle suddenly remembered, wasn't this the young merchant who came to the shop to drink that day, dressed flamboyantly? He didn't expect him to be a Barbarian spy.

For a moment, he was filled with mixed emotions.

Escaping was the priority, so he didn't care where Han Huohuo was from.

Following Han Huohuo's guidance, their family quickly caught up with the large group of refugees.

People fled in all directions. The prosperous Wanqing City was looted clean and then became the Barbarians' Main Camp.

All the Barbarians were scrambling for food and money.

Only Tongtian City was scrambling for population.

After capturing Wanqing City, the Barbarian King was overjoyed. He rewarded merits and conferred titles. Han Huohuo received hundreds of thousands in resources. Then, after a brief reorganization, the Barbarian King continued to lead his army south.

He marched towards the next large city.

Han Huohuo did not follow to fight. That was no longer his business. He received orders to return to Tongtian City. His main task was to maintain the transportation routes in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Using the resources bestowed by the Barbarian King, Mu Jiu upgraded Tongtian City by another level.

The population limit reached twenty thousand.

There were seven or eight thousand people from Wanqing City, plus the original population. Tongtian City suddenly became a city of ten thousand people.

Hua Mulan was called by the Barbarian King for a chat, and then brought back a few treasure chests.

"Lord, these were sent by the Barbarian King. He said they are his personal gifts to you."

Han Huohuo accepted with a smile. He had to admit, no matter what, this cheap older brother was indeed good to him.

Mu Jiu was busy settling the refugees. Too many people arrived at once, and all the internal affairs Heroes were working so hard they were almost smoking.

Han Huohuo returned to the Main Camp with the boxes.

Only he was the most relaxed, sitting at home opening boxes for fun, thinking, what good things will Barbarian King Da Ge give me? It shouldn't be too bad, after all, this was sent by the Barbarian King.

He opened the first treasure chest.

[Lucky Bird]: This is a silver pendant, Luck +2.

[system detected that you possess the Four-Leaf Clover, Lucky Horseshoe, and Lucky Bird, three lucky treasures. They can be integrated into a combined treasure, Lucky Rainbow. Are you sure you want to synthesize?]

The first box yielded a combined treasure, and Han Huohuo was overjoyed.

"Combine!"

The three lucky items combined into a sparkling rainbow accessory.

[Lucky Rainbow]: Luck +6. You possess astonishing luck. You and your army will never be critically hit by enemies.

Amazing!

Although combined treasures also vary in strength, none are too bad. This treasure provides immunity to critical hit damage.

Originally, several ornaments were hanging clanking on his neck, but now there were two: a Holy Blood Potion and a Lucky Rainbow.
