Chapter 1168 Revitalization

Tilly cried intermittently for nearly an hour before she calmed down. When Roland put her on the sofa, he found that she had fallen asleep. When the two separated, the tears and snot that had formed into a ball even pulled out a few thin strands between the cheeks and clothes.

Such an "undignified" appearance was naturally not convenient for Maleficent's witch to see. Roland thought for a while, and finally called Anna, and together they carried Tilly to the large bedroom on the third floor of the castle.

After wiping her cheeks, Tilly's breathing returned to normal, but there was still no sign of waking up, which showed that she was indeed very tired. It is not uncommon to rely on busy work to numb oneself. This kind of shock treatment is not uncommon. I am afraid that after learning the news of Ashes' sacrifice, she will not have a good rest for a moment.

"Just sleep with her tonight," Roland sighed. "At times like this, I'm most afraid of being alone. The only one who can take care of her now is you."

"Don't worry, I can feel her mood and know what to do." Anna nodded lightly, "What about you?"

"I'm going to the Third Border City to get some sleep. I've been spending the past few days there anyway, so it doesn't hurt to stay a little longer." Roland replied, "And the news about the victory of Operation Torch should be let to them as soon as possible - I think those ancient witches have been waiting for this day for a long time."

"Well." Anna came over and kissed his cheek, "Although I don't want you to leave, these things are indeed more important..."

"Sorry, it's rare for you to come back from the front line."

"Don't say stupid things, my lord, it will still grow in the future."

When Roland walked to the door, Anna stopped him again.

"By the way, don't forget to call Nightingale," she said seriously. "The only person in this city who cannot have accidents is you."

Looking at the other party's clear eyes, Roland agreed and closed the door.

…

As soon as he entered the Third Border City with a large group of personal guards, Pasha appeared in front of him immediately.

"Your Majesty, is there any new news from the front line? How is the situation?"

You can tell from the thin beards waving all over the other party's body that she is feeling restless and turbulent at the moment.

Roland had no intention of showing off, and replied bluntly, "We have achieved a complete victory - the demons on the plains have been eliminated, and the demon-slayers have not been able to escape. Now Taqila is under the control of the First Army. middle."

Pasha's tentacles stopped for an instant.

After being silent for about a few seconds, she said excitedly, "Is this true? Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude... I'm not doubting you, but I really don't know what to say - can you tell me more details? ?"

After more than four hundred years of training, there are few things that can change the mood of these high-level witches so much. This is the first time Roland has seen Pasha lose her temper, "Of course. But -"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will go and inform everyone of the good news!" However, before he could finish speaking, Pasha disappeared from the top of the cave with a hiss.

Roland was stunned for a moment, and finally he could only shake his head helplessly.

And when he entered the underground hall, not only Pasha, Elxa, and Celine, but all the remaining God's Punishment Witches had gathered in the center of the hall, forming a straight line, waiting expectantly for him to speak. .

This made it difficult for Roland to complete the second half of the sentence.

"Let nature take its course," Nightingale reminded in a low voice, "or later use conscious communication to tell Pasha and the others alone."

It can only be the. He nodded, took a step forward, and began to tell the general story and results of the last battle - although the detailed statistical report has not yet been released, and there are many omissions in Ye Zi's account, those data and gains and losses are not important to them.

For this group of survivors who have been looking forward to it for more than four centuries, victory is the most important thing.

By the time he finished telling the little bit of news, the crowd was already excited.

There were endless cheers, and many witches burst into tears, but whether they were crying or laughing, everyone expressed the same emotion.

A joy that has only broken free after being dormant for hundreds of years.

"Please forgive me for my rudeness and offense to you." Elsha took the initiative to come to him and lowered his beard deeply. "From today on, there is no need for a united front. You are the only one in Taquila. The ruler is also where our will lies."

Pasha and Celine did not interrupt, obviously acquiescing to her statement.

This is also tantamount to admitting that Taqila will exist as an integral part of the Kingdom of Graycastle in the future.

After Roland nodded to express his acceptance, Elxia raised his beard again.

"There is one more thing I have to tell you," he concentrated on telling the three people about Elena's news.

"Really...it turns out to be her." Pasha said slowly.

To Roland's surprise, they didn't show much emotion.

"You...have known this for a long time?" he couldn't help but ask.

"No, we were just prepared." Elfia said calmly, "The ambush team was surrounded by the devil with premeditation. If it was the Federation era, there would be no chance of survival. If we can save everyone at such a cost, It’s a blessing.”

"You may not understand, but death is a common thing for us." Celine continued, "After all, everyone has voluntarily survived through the fusion of soul instruments and carriers. This process is equivalent to being killed. After screening them all, not to mention the heavy casualties we faced in the Battle of Divine Will. The only thing we fear is a meaningless death."

"And Elena just made the choice that every Taquila warrior would make," Elsha said finally, "So, you don't have to worry about it."

So...is this being comforted?

Roland felt quite emotional and didn't know what to say.

"Of course, this doesn't mean that we won't be sad for the loss of our companions, but the war has taught us restraint." Pasha looked at the witches who were still celebrating, "Let me tell them this - —But at this moment, let them enjoy the joy of victory."

…

Five days later.

As the frontline troops returned one after another, news of the Northern Expedition's victory gradually spread in the city of Neverwinter.

Although it was not as intuitive and shocking as defeating the tide of evil beasts or Duke Lane, and it did not cause the whole city to celebrate, the people still pieced together the true face of the enemy from the mouths of their family members and neighbors who had returned from joining the army - ferocious, Powerful and unafraid of death, it is far beyond what hybrids and the Duke Knights can match. Coupled with the testimony of witnesses of the horrific beast attack, the image of a powerful enemy that completely matched the devil from hell was gradually established.

What's more, it was exaggerated into a legendary disaster monster. Descriptions such as being a hundred feet tall and spitting fire from its mouth were common, and it quickly became one of the hottest topics in the streets.

And even such an enemy was still defeated by the First Army, and the victory was won thousands of miles away. This kind of rhetoric greatly inspired the people's morale - if even the devils from hell can't compete with the Graycastle army, Who else are their opponents?

"Greycastle Weekly" also made efforts at the same time and began to use large pages to publish the accounts of frontline soldiers and restore the entire war process.

For a time, the slogan of signing up to join the First Army and expanding territory for His Majesty swept the whole city.

But the top management of Neverwinter City knew very well what the real challenge they were about to face was.

Public cemetery in the west of the city.

Since the evil moon set the first tombstone five years ago, this place has transformed from an overgrown wasteland into a cemetery park covered in greenery today.

Today, 426 new tombstones were added here.

Most of them are empty, because the limited transport capacity is unable to transport all the bodies back, but no one will feel that the victims have been abandoned - the names on the tombstones record their honors and achievements.

Ashes and Elena's stele are also among them.

They looked the same as other stone tablets. The only difference was that there was a fused sword hilt inserted in front of the ashes of the tablet.

"Salute!" Iron Ax said loudly, then raised his arm vigorously.

All senior officials followed up with military salutes—even if their official positions and status were higher than those of the vast majority of soldiers.

This is a tribute and a warning.

——The battle of divine will that determines fate is far from over.

After the funeral, Roland immediately called Barov, "Gather all the ministers, I have a new task to give."

This challenge has just begun. ()
