Chapter 822 A True Warrior
The battle in Silver Scale City ended with the complete annihilation of the demon alliance, and all reconstruction work in the city was proceeding in an orderly manner.
And thanks to Yin Ruizhi's contact with Kong Fantian, who extended the talent effect to the lord responsible for rebuilding the city-state, the progress of the repair of Silver Scale City simply took off, and a huge area was quickly restored. .
It seems that in about half a day, the entire city-state can be restored to new condition.
As for Lin Ye, who had nothing to do at this time, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he followed the generals around the city to check on the situation.
"Actually, Silver Scale City will be in a tough battle this time, and even almost be captured, because the city lord has no way to come to help, otherwise no matter how many corrupt demons come, it won't work."
While walking, Guan Xiu couldn't help but said with emotion.
Within the city-state, everyone knows that the city lord has a fighting power comparable to that of a strong man in adversity.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to capture a city-state.
Unless you can control the city lord of this city-state through other means before attacking this city-state, it is possible to capture or even capture this city-state.
Just like when Lin Ye was in the sixty-level war zone, the city lord of Shanyi City was suddenly attacked and killed, and the entire city-state was directly robbed by the demon lord.
Although he finally recaptured Shanyi City without any danger, it also left a deep impression on Lin Ye.
It is indeed difficult to conquer a city-state!
Within the abyss, attacking the city lord is the easiest way.
Just like what Guan Xiu said, the city lord of Silver Scale City was killed by the enemy in the battle and entered a state of resurrection, which allowed the Corrupt Demon Clan to see an opportunity and directly attack Silver Scale City. Scale City launched an attack.
Because in this state, the city lord cannot come back to defend the city-state, which is when the city-state is at its weakest.
As for waiting for the city lord of Silver Scale City to be resurrected, the core of Silver Scale City has already changed hands, and it will be very difficult to take it back.
"It's lucky to say that. Fortunately, the city lord chose to commit suicide at the critical moment... Otherwise, if he died at the hands of those corrupt demons, he would not even have the chance to be resurrected." Guan Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
This situation is unprecedented.
Many times, most lords are willing to fight to the death, especially soldiers. Although they have to be imprisoned and resurrected after being killed, they will never really die.
Therefore, many people are unwilling to bow to their opponents, even if they are killed and resurrected.
After all, being resurrected and imprisoned will only last a few months, but if you become a coward once, you will be nagged for a lifetime.
It's easy to tell which one is more serious.
Except for some rare cases, basically no lord would beg for mercy in battle if he knew that he would die once he was killed.
As for suicide...
It's also very rare, because they all have the mentality of resurrecting, so why not cause a little more damage to the opponent before going to resurrect?
Isn't it more honorable to die in battle than to commit suicide?
Therefore, suicide has never been considered a glorious thing among the lords.
But now faced with this corrupting plague, committing suicide has become the only way to survive...
After all, if you do it yourself, you may still be resurrected, but if you are killed by the corrupted demons, you will directly become a void creature, and your body will disappear after death.
Under the two evils, self-defeat has become a final resort that is not difficult to accept.
But at this level, it is difficult to grasp...
Because even if some people commit suicide, they will still be directly corrupted into void creatures and die directly.
Only those who are not deeply contaminated by the void can be resurrected through this method...
"Yes, this is because the city lord acted decisively and a strong man lost his arm, otherwise..."
"But how did I hear that Zijin Pavilion was going to investigate his behavior of escaping from battle?"
"I also received news that the city lord was in charge of the battle at that time. As long as he persisted, he could wait for reinforcements. However, he surrendered first, and the morale of the army was devastated, resulting in a disastrous defeat with nearly 50,000 casualties..."
"He was able to revive after being killed. Doesn't he already know how much effort he put into the battle?"
Several stronghold commanders were discussing at this time.
Lin Ye listened calmly on the side.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand that in past battles, even if you are killed, you still have a chance to be resurrected.
Therefore, as long as they are not too unlucky, ordinary soldiers can survive safely until retirement. Many warriors who fight bravely are not afraid of death, but know that they cannot die.
But now the battle against the corrupted demons has changed from the previous war model.
The shadow of death has never hung so clearly over the heads of soldiers...
Therefore, in the past, those soldiers who seemed to be brave, good at fighting, and fearless of death suddenly revealed their prototypes. At worst, their fighting power was greatly reduced, and at worst, they escaped from the battle.
The city lord of Silver Scale City probably saw something wrong with the momentum on the battlefield, so he abandoned his army without hesitation and chose to resurrect as soon as possible to avoid being contaminated by too much power of the void and causing the resurrection to fail.
Although the matter is unclear, judging from the fact that Zijin Pavilion opened a case to investigate him, we know that this is probably the case.
These generals did not have much sympathy for the Lord of Silver Scale City, and even from the words of some commanders, one could hear deep disdain.
First, the Lord of Silver Scale City was just an ordinary colleague with them, and they did not get along very well.
Second, judging from the performance of the generals present, they were not the kind of people like the Lord of Silver Scale City, and it was normal for them to despise such a cowardly behavior.
But when Guan Xiu talked about this matter at this time, it was obvious that he did not really care whether the Lord of the City was dead or not, but just wanted to stir up a topic.
"If there were a City God Temple in our human army, then this plague would probably not be a threat." Guan Xiu scratched the back of his head and said a little embarrassedly.
Obviously, he also knew what he was talking about, and his old face flushed and he was a little embarrassed.
"Yes, yes, General Guan is right. I think the City God Temple blueprint can be relaxed under this situation..."
"I don't mind. It's mainly about the soldiers under my command. They are all the best guys... I have lost a lot of new recruits during this period, alas!"
"Who isn't? Those kids are all good boys of our human race..."
As they said this, several commanders became emotional, their eyes reddened.
After hearing this, Lin Ye understood what these veterans meant. (End of this chapter)
