The Hero in Exile

Chapter 209 Siege Signal

"Urgent! Let me see General Bourne."

A soldier hurried to the command post. Bourne and Moran were still discussing how to break the deadlock. As for Lingyu, she couldn't think of any useful ideas, so they let her go out and play by herself.

"What's wrong soldier? Any important information?"

"General and Lord Demon, for some reason the magic shield of Ruilin City has disappeared!"

"I understand the situation soldier, you step aside so I can discuss this with the Demon King."

Bourne was not surprised but confused by the unexpected news.

"Uncle Bowen, are you confused about something? This is a good time to attack."

"Well, I'm afraid this is an ambush by the enemy. The enemy's protective shield is strategically important and has not had any flaws in these days, but this happened as soon as we arrived."

Moran looked at the map and fell into deep thought. This was most likely a way to lure them into the trap, and then open the magic shield to split them in two when the large force arrived.

If the troops inside are trapped and killed, they will be doomed.

"But this is also an opportunity. After all, if the magic shield is restarted, the damage caused by launching an attack and breaking the magic shield will definitely be huge."

"So I was thinking, I think it's going to be a while before he restarts, should we take advantage of this opportunity?"

"Actually, there is another way..."

Moran thought of a solution that was also very risky, but very likely to be implemented.

After hearing this, Bourne strongly rejected it, but after Moran's persuasion, it seemed that this was the only possible situation.

In the end, he could only helplessly shake his head and wave goodbye.

"Go ahead, and remember to bring two flare guns. The blue one means that something is wrong with you and I will bring people to try to break in and rescue you. The red one means that there is no problem and I will directly attack the city."

"Got it. Don't worry, you know the strength of Lingyu and I. There will be no problem."

……

"So Moran, are you sure this is okay?"

"Of course, we all came in and no one stopped us."

Moran and Lingyu are now walking in the streets of Ruilin with swagger.

The only difference was that Lingyu used the shapeshifting technique to stand next to Moran in her original appearance. After all, Lingyu had been in the church before, so she was not recognized by that group of people.

Moran's plan was to sneak in and see if there was an ambush, or to kill the opponent's bishop directly.

I thought it would take some time to get in, but there were surprisingly few soldiers patrolling and inspecting, and many soldiers and paladins in the city were heading towards the city center, and no one knew what they were doing.

After some reconnaissance, we didn't find anything unusual, so we took a walk around and then took action.

"Moran, is that you? Moran, why are you here?"

When Moran was recognized, he subconsciously took out his magic sword and flare gun, but when he turned around, he found that it was an old acquaintance.

"It's you, Eve."

Moran breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized how he ended up on the street of the Adventurer's Guild.

It was my own negligence. What should I do now? Take her to a deserted place and then snap.

Lingyu noticed Moran's thoughts and gave him a stabbing look. Moran had no choice but to behave himself.

"Why don't you come in and sit down? It's not peaceful outside right now."

Liv took the lead in breaking the awkwardness, and Moran and Lingyu followed Liv into the Adventurer's Association without much hesitation.

"Not opening today?"

There was no one in the association. You should know that this place was full of people in the afternoon before, and they would sit there and drink when they had nothing to do.

Lingyu lifted the alien spell after confirming that no one outside could see inside.

"Long time no see Liv."

"Hey, are you Lingyu?"

Liv came to her senses after being shocked for a moment. She hadn't seen them for several years and they appeared here after the incident in Ruilin City. Liv, who stayed in Ruilin City every day, was sure that the two had never come back before.

"What's going on in Ruilin City? I saw a lot of people going to the church."

"You're talking about this, Lingyu..." Eve's face revealed a trace of sadness. "The president took high-level adventurers to assassinate the bishop and his men, so the protective shield disappeared."

"The president couldn't stand the church's actions. He took the risk only after seeing the demon army and General Borne return. I don't know why the demons haven't attacked yet. If they don't hurry up, the president and those adventurers..."

Liv's voice choked up a little when she said this. Recalling that more and more soldiers were rushing towards the church, she thought that with the strength of the adventurers in Ruilin City, they might not be able to resist for long.

"So do you want to save them?"

"Of course I do."

Moran broke through the door and fired a flare into the sky.

Red fireworks bloomed in the sky.

Born saw giving orders.

"Prepare the siege equipment, and get those boys ready, it's time to go home!"

……

"You've taken all the limelight of being cool."

Lingyu looked at Moran leisurely.

"Then there will be a place for us to show our skills later."

"That's right, I won't blame you this time."
