Chapter 127 Jingyuan's Decision
No one answered her.
Because everyone knows it.
Faced with an envoy who was almost impossible to kill, even the historically renowned Yunshang Wurao had little chance against him.
And the outcome of this war...
Looking at the horrific battlefield in the sky, Walter sighed inwardly.
Because this war was so brutal, it is only briefly mentioned in historical records.
Teng Xiao died in battle, nine of the Cloud Cavalry were lost, Luofu was half destroyed, and Wurao...
The ending... was already predetermined.
Kafka did not speak.
She simply gazed quietly at the sky, then glanced at Lu Li, who remained silent beside her.
This man has not uttered a single word since the beginning.
He simply leaned back on the sofa and quietly gazed at the sky.
But she, who had been paying close attention to Lu Li, saw it clearly.
At the moment General Teng Xiao self-destructed, Lu Li's body... suddenly stiffened.
Although he maintained that lazy posture, Kafka keenly caught a fleeting glimpse of pain in his eyes.
It's a kind of pain... anticipating tragedy but being powerless to stop it.
He was grieving.
He was grieving for the general who had passed away.
This discovery stirred up a complex mix of emotions in Kafka.
So... you weren't really indifferent to everything, Ali.
……
Did Lu Li anticipate this?
Lu Li had indeed anticipated this... or rather, he knew about it long ago.
The moment he saw General Teng Xiao rush towards Shuhu, he already knew the outcome.
He even knew that Teng Xiao's death was just the beginning.
The most brutal part of this war is only just beginning.
But... damn it.
Knowing something and seeing it with your own eyes are two completely different things!
He knew Teng Xiao would die because it was mentioned in the game's background description in his previous life.
But he didn't know he would die such a heroic death.
This is so...frustrating.
Teng Xiao, who died in battle, and the Yunqi Army who held the line to the death...
That's a messenger, after all!
You mere mortals, go ahead and fight with your heads!
Knowing full well that they couldn't win, why did they still go? Do they really think their lives don't matter?
Watching the Cloud Cavalry die one after another on the battlefield, Lu Li felt a tightness in his chest.
But this is history, what can he do?
Should we rush into the canopy to save people?
Do not make jokes.
This is a fact that has already happened and cannot be changed.
He's just a spectator now.
A pathetic audience member who knew the script in advance.
Lu Li closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled.
But the heavy, suffocating feeling in my chest did not lessen at all.
He remembered "himself" from the Kafka arc, who died protecting someone.
Then I thought of General Teng Xiao, who died protecting something.
Why...
Why is the ending of those who protect others always so tragic?
Suddenly, the image of "himself" in the sky appeared in Lu Li's mind.
he knows.
Although Lu Li in the sky is powerful, he is not a god.
There are things he can't do; he can't save everyone.
But what is "he" in the sky thinking when he sees this scene?
Is it the same feeling of powerlessness I have now, just like myself?
Or perhaps... he actually had the ability to stop all of this, but he didn't?
because……
"Damn it..." Lu Li couldn't help but mutter under his breath.
He discovered.
The more I try to sever ties with those "past lives," the more I discover that there seems to be an unbreakable, sorrowful resonance between me and them.
Why?
Why is it always like this?
Why is he always forced to face this situation when he is clearly powerless to do anything about it?
He really hated this feeling.
I hate it to the extreme.
……
In the sky, the war continues.
Although General Teng Xiao's death greatly dampened the morale of the Yunqi Army, it also aroused their fighting spirit of sharing a common hatred for the enemy.
"Avenge the general!"
"Kill all these monsters!"
but……
Although the Cloud Cavalry launched a desperate charge, the sudden "Bloodstained Prison Realm" was simply too terrifying.
The fallen comrades and the fallen enemies will all turn into new monsters, stabbing them in the back.
The Yunqi Army's lines were forced into retreat under attack from both inside and outside.
Although the Five Heroes of the Clouds were powerful, they gradually felt overwhelmed by the endless onslaught of monsters.
"No, there are too many! I'm almost out of arrows!" Bai Heng's voice was tinged with anxiety.
"My stamina is almost at its limit!" Ying Xing gasped for breath, his movements as he swung the giant hammer noticeably slowed down.
Jing Yuan, Dan Feng, Jing Liu, and even Lu Li are not in much better shape.
Everyone had some kind of injury.
The key is……
After General Teng Xiao's death in battle, the area was completely liberated in an instant.
Its massive body rampaged across the battlefield, its countless roots reaping the lives of the Cloud Cavalry like the Grim Reaper's scythe.
Part of the immortal ship has already been destroyed by its attack.
However, with all five of them on the front lines and unable to leave, Yun Shangwu was unable to do so.
No one can stop it, not even for a second.
"Jingyuan! This can't go on!" Yingxing roared through the communication channel. "If this continues, the immortal ship will be destroyed before we even finish fighting it!"
Jingyuan certainly knew.
He stared anxiously at the constantly flashing red dots on the sand table.
After killing General Teng Xiao, Shu Hu did not rush to attack.
Instead, it was like a high and mighty god, watching with great interest this feast of flesh and blood that it had orchestrated.
It is slowly eroding them and toying with them!
Most importantly, its injuries are slowly healing in the Bloodstained Prison Realm.
Once he recovers to his prime...
Jing Yuan turned to look at the immortal ship behind him and gritted his teeth.
We can't hesitate any longer.
We must not give up this opportunity that General Teng Xiao created with his own life.
"Jingliu, Danfeng, Luli!" Jingyuan made a decisive decision, "Prepare to break through and kill Shuhu!"
"Bai Heng, Ying Xing, you two concentrate your efforts and help the three of them break through!"
"Break through?" Bai Heng was taken aback. "What about the defensive lines on the battlefield?"
"Leave the defense line to me and the Cloud Cavalry!" Jing Yuan's voice carried a hint of determination.
"Lu Li, the three of you must take care of it before it recovers, while we can still hold it off."
"Otherwise, once it recovers, not only us, but everyone on the entire Immortal Ship will die here!"
The communicator fell silent.
They all knew what Jingyuan's decision meant.
Know it after all.
Faced with an endless abundance of monstrous creatures, the battlefield did not collapse because of their presence.
If they leave...
But they also know.
Since Jingyuan has made this decision, it means that the situation has really reached a point where there is no time to hesitate, just as he said.
Jingliu's voice rang out first: "Jingyuan, it's up to you."
Danfeng: "Understood."
Ying Xing smashed aside the abundant, savage creature before him and roared, "Damn it!"
Bai Heng didn't speak, but looked at the star raft beneath his feet, then at Shu Hu in the distance, and bit his lip.
Lu Li glanced at Bai Heng beside him without leaving a trace, then nodded: "Okay."
Jing Yuan said solemnly, "I'm counting on you."
Then Jing Yuan looked at the Cloud Cavalry in front of him and took a deep breath.
"—All troops, listen to my command!"
