In the past few days, the original residents of Scarlet City gradually returned to Scarlet City and began to rebuild their homes.
Hodes and the major city lords also began to officially return, leaving only a part of the soldiers to defend in case the enemy invaded again.
Although the human army won the victory in the end, they also suffered heavy losses.
In this battle, the Holy Knights lost a total of more than 45,000, and even the deputy commander died in the line of duty. As for the troops in other cities, they also lost nearly half, which was also a loss for the entire Empire of Light.
Not a small loss.
Fortunately, the losses among the members of the mage group were relatively minor. There were more than 4,000 casualties among the members of the palace mage group. As for the students of Guangming Academy, due to special care, the losses were less, but there were still dozens of students who unfortunately died.
Death is also a tragedy.
Anyone who participates in this battle can gain military merit.
Everything is finally over for the time being.
Who knows, maybe this is just the beginning?
;;;;;; Shenlong Empire, in the stern palace.
In the early morning, it was a beautiful and windy day.
"Report!~"
A man on horseback rushed into the palace, waving a golden sign in one hand.
When he arrived at the palace, he immediately got off his horse and ran quickly to the main hall.
At this time, in the main hall, Emperor Shelley and his ministers were having a routine morning court meeting.
Suddenly, Long Yuan, who looked serious, stepped into the hall, bowed his hands and said, "Great Emperor, this is a good news from outside the palace."
"pass!"
Emperor Shelley replied calmly.
"Yes!~"
Long Yuan nodded slightly and walked outside the hall.
Soon, Long Yuan led a man in.
When the man saw Emperor Shelley, he was horrified and immediately knelt down on the ground and said: "I'm reporting to the Emperor that a good news has arrived. Commander Meng Khan has led all the generals and returned in triumph!"
"Haha! You are worthy of being the leader of the Mongolian Khan! Good!" Emperor Shelley was greatly surprised and laughed loudly: "Pass this on to reward the three armies, and everyone will receive first-class military exploits!"
"Yes!~"
The man bowed respectfully, bowed and retreated.
This time, Emperor Shelley ordered to send troops to assist the Light Empire, firstly to stop the Dark Empire's conspiracy, and secondly to make good friends with the Light Empire.
After all, it would be beneficial and harmless to form an alliance with the Empire of Light.
"Great Emperor, Long Yuan has something to report!" Long Yuan suddenly said.
"Haha, Brother Longyuan, you're welcome, feel free to tell me anything you want!" Emperor Shelley smiled, in great interest.
"Well, it's just..." Long Yuan couldn't help but look around at the ministers in the palace.
Emperor Shelley frowned. In a situation like this, something big must have happened. He covered his mouth slightly and said, "Ahem, do you have anything else important to do?"
Hearing the sound, everyone fell silent.
Emperor Shelley said casually: "If nothing happens, I will retreat early in the morning."
"Thank you, Emperor!~"
Everyone bowed respectfully and retreated. Only Long Yuan stayed.
Everyone was extremely curious and secretly looked at Long Yuan's body a few times, but they could only timidly leave the hall.
After the ministers left, Emperor Shelley stood up and said, "Let's go to my study."
"yes!"
Long Yuan responded.
Then, Long Yuan followed Emperor Shelley from the back of the palace to a secret study.
As soon as Emperor Shelley sat down, he frowned and asked: "Brother Long Yuan, is there anything special going on over there at Long Tengyue?"
"That's not true." Long Yuan said solemnly: "A few days ago, a secret subordinate who was said to be the leader of Yunxing came from the front and said that he had something important to see Princess Liz. But this person is weird, and I have never seen him before.
I heard Yun Xing say that when I asked him about his true identity, he refused to speak, so I have temporarily detained him. I wonder if the emperor can see this person."
"Meet Liz?" Emperor Shelley was startled, pondered for a long time, and said, "Well, this person is a bit suspicious, but I can't think of anything to do. If there is really something important, then..."
"The Emperor might as well meet him." Long Yuan said: "This person is not particularly strong. If he really has evil intentions, I can stop him immediately!"
"Well, this is what I have in mind." Emperor Shelley sighed and said, "Haha, I haven't seen Liz for a few days. You will send this person here secretly later, and I will go there first."
"Yes!~"
Long Yuan bowed and retreated.
Emperor Shelley had some hope on his face and sighed secretly: "I hope you won't disappoint me."
;;;;;;At this time, somewhere in a gorgeous palace, flowers and plants were planted everywhere. Before entering the palace, you could smell the fragrance.
That's right, this is Sherry's palace.
Over the years, Shirley's health has gotten worse and worse. Long Yunfeng's mother, Fianna, has been taking care of Shirley all day long, and they are almost living together.
Shirley lost her mother when she was a child and lacked her mother's love. After taking care of her in the past few years, Shirley even regarded Fianna as her biological parents.
At this time, Sherry was lying on the bed, and Fianna was sitting in front of the bed. The two were laughing and talking about their concerns, but Sherry's face looked extremely pale.
suddenly!
A majestic and loving voice came in: "Liz~"
The two were startled, and immediately looked around, and saw Emperor Shelley in uniform walking in with a smile on his face.
"Great Emperor~"
Fianna immediately bowed in fear.
"Mrs. Anna, you are so polite." Emperor Shelley smiled slightly: "Haha, thank you for taking good care of Liz all these years."
"Yeah." Fianna nodded slightly, looked back at Sheris, and sighed: "Alas, Princess Liz is still the same, with no improvement."
"Father," Shiris called softly, struggling to get up.
"Liz! You~"
Emperor Shelley immediately ran forward with distress, carefully held Sherry against the bed with one hand, and said reproachfully: "Liz, you are serious, you can't move your body casually."
"I'm fine." Sheris smiled and asked, "Father, is there any news about Yunfeng?"
"Hmph, do you only have that brat Long Yunfeng in your heart?" Emperor Shelley deliberately glared at Sherry and said, "Isn't your father important? Don't you know that your father has always cared for you?
?”
Sherry's face turned red and she softly replied, "I'm sorry, Father."
"Alas~" Emperor Shelley couldn't help but sigh, and said: "There is no news about Long Yunfeng, but Long Yunxing sent someone to bring something that may be about you."
"What's going on?" Sherrys and Fianna asked at the same time instinctively.
"I don't know about it as a father." Emperor Shelley shook his head and said, "But Long Yuan has specially brought the person who sent the news."
"What about others?" Sherry asked.
"Almost there." Emperor Shelley replied.
Coincidentally, Long Yuan's voice just sounded from outside the door: "Great Emperor!"
"Here we come!" Emperor Shelley was stunned and said: "Brother Longyuan, come in."
"Yes!~"
Long Yuan responded, then walked in with a frightened man and knelt down on the ground.
"Great Emperor, this is the man." Long Yuan said, looking wary of the man.
"Huh?" Everyone looked at the man curiously, and Emperor Shelley asked directly: "I heard that you have something to see Princess Liz?"
The man was startled. The man in front of him was none other than Shelley the Great. He immediately replied: "Great Emperor, I really need to see the princess for something."
After saying that, the man couldn't help but secretly glance at the pale Sheris beside the bed.
"Say! What's the matter?" Emperor Shelley asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, yes." The man responded fearfully, and carefully took out a delicate small bottle from his arms, and said: "This is the water of life. It was given to me personally by a strange friend of Captain Yunxing."
Give it to Princess Liz."
"Water of life?!"
Everyone's faces were filled with shock. The water of life was the legendary divine water.
At that moment, Long Yuan grabbed the small bottle with one hand. As soon as he opened it, a special and refreshing smell spread throughout the room. Everyone was already surprised.
Then, Long Yuan capped the bottle and said, "Great Emperor, although I don't know what water of life is, this thing is not harmful."
"Well." Emperor Shelley stared at the man and asked, "Didn't the stranger say anything else?"
"No, I will give the little one to Princess Liz personally." The man replied seriously.
Hearing these words, Sherry was excited, with tears in her eyes, and said, "Yes, he must be Yunfeng, he really has not forgotten me."
"Liz, don't get excited yet. If this is really the water of life, then you have hope." Emperor Shelley said with a happy face, "Brother Longyuan, take it to Liz."
"Yeah." Long Yuan didn't hesitate, stepped forward and handed it to Fianna, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
Fianna carefully took the bottle, but her eyes never left Long Yuan's cold face, feeling a little heartbroken.
Involuntarily, Fianna gently opened the small bottle, and the strange smell came out again. She gently handed it to Sherry's mouth and chuckled: "Come on, princess, drink it."
"Yes." Sherry nodded slightly, with a happy face, and gently drank the water of life.
Emperor Shelley, Long Yuan and others stood quietly aside, looking closely at Sherry, looking extremely anxious and excited.
At this time, when Shirley had completely drank the water of life, an extremely wonderful feeling rose from her heart. The blood that had interfered with it began to flow even more. Her pale face gradually
Her ruddy color has returned. There is a faint green light lingering outside her body, and the whole room is filled with a fresh and pleasant natural atmosphere.
"That's right! It's really the water of life. It can be saved! Liz is really saved!" Emperor Shelley shouted as excitedly as a child, completely losing the majesty of a king.
Fianna also looked touched, with tears streaming down her face.
Quietly, Sherry opened her eyes from the wonderful feeling, holding the small bottle in her hand like a treasure.
"Um?"
Sherry suddenly discovered that there was a small note on the small bottle.
Involuntarily, Sherry gently opened the small note, with a few words written on it: "Liz, live well and wait for me to come back."
Suddenly, seeing these gentle words, Shirley seemed more excited than ever before, and exclaimed with great emotion: "It's him! It's really him! I believe that he will never forget me."
!”
Suddenly, Sherry held the small note in her hands, and with tears in her eyes, she said softly: "Yunfeng, don't worry, I will live well and wait for you to come back."
Emperor Shelley and others were stunned, but when they saw Sherry's expression change, their anxious hearts could finally relax.
