It's almost full, you tell me this is the favorability?

Bill's task now is to test whether the black mist in the abyss of the Rift Valley still works.

"Advance with vigilance."

After approaching the big gentle slope, Bill ordered his team to advance in formation.

Everyone slowed down, the scouts walked in the front, came to the big gentle slope, and glanced ahead.

Countless black mist wrapped it.

"My lord, the black mist is still there."

Bill breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words. This black mist is a product of the ancient seal. It is like a bottomless abyss, and nothing can pass through it, even magic power.

Wait, magic? !

Bill felt his back go numb as he watched the black mist below the big gentle slope.

So just now he subconsciously used magic power to detect the scene ahead, and he felt that the front was like a bottomless abyss... But the original black mist did not allow magic power perception.

This feedback perception is like a setting.

"Retreat! Retreat at full speed and notify the city to prepare for battle!"

Bill roared angrily, reminding his men to start retreating.

Bill's team is all elites. Although they didn't understand what happened, they still carried out Bill's order immediately.

Everyone retreated in the same direction as when they were coming and going at full speed, and the formation was no longer maintained.

Whoosh!

A silver spear flew out of the darkness and pierced directly through a soldier's chest.

The soldier opened his eyes wide, staggered two steps and fell down without a sound.

"Enemy attack!"

"Retreat at full speed! Bring the news back to the city and get ready, no one is allowed to stop, this is an order!"

Bill roared and gave the last order, then turned and stopped.

He took off the longbow on his back with his left hand, and then held the bow.

Bill didn't have a right arm, so logically he couldn't draw the bowstring.

But a blue light appeared behind Bill, and a woman's soul body appeared.

"Lana, please help me fight."

Lana is his wife's name.

The soul body named Lana, she gently stuck behind Bill, and then pulled the bowstring with one hand, the blue magic power gathered for a long time, and finally formed a magic arrow.

Lana's soul body let go of the bowstring.

With a whoosh, the magic arrow shot out and landed on the edge of the black mist.

With a loud bang, the arrow exploded with great power, and the existence on the edge of the black mist was blocked for a while.

The innate skill of the Nat family is magic cohesion.

The arrows condensed with magic power are very powerful.

The wife didn't leave completely back then, and the deep relationship between the two formed a special obsession, which has always guarded Bill with a wisp of his wife's remnant soul.

During the battle, Bill could still sense his wife's presence.

He knew that his wife had never left him, and the two could still fight side by side.

"Lana, increase the attack efficiency."

Bill opened his mouth to remind, and increased the output of magic power in the body.

Lana is just a remnant of obsessive soul, logically speaking, she doesn't have much wisdom, but she can execute Bill's ideas very well.

The soul body accelerated the output frequency, and the magic explosion completely blocked their pursuit.

"Roar!!"

The black mist gradually dissipated, and there were traces of the orc troops.

Bill's eyes were calm. When he realized that something was wrong with the black mist just now, he knew that things were not that simple.

Therefore, the order to retreat was issued immediately, and he personally left behind.

Only he can delay the orc's pace, and then let his men bring the news back.

Only the city of Pala can be ready.

Bill's plan succeeds, but it also annoys the orcs.

A very strong being rushed out of the orcs, and he swung his ax to directly block the magic arrow shot by Bill.

Bang!

The explosion just made him stagger, but it didn't stop, it still charged towards Bill.

When it was about to approach, it rushed directly and jumped to Bill's side.

The big ax came down.

Bill swung the bow with his left hand, and blocked the opponent's attack with his strong bow.

However, the gap in strength was obvious, and Bill was directly thrown away by the opponent using the borrowing technique.

Archers are not suitable for close combat.

The orc immediately planned to make up the knife.

He jumped again, and smashed Bill with the ax in both hands.

Bill felt that he was locked by magic power, and he closed his eyes weakly.

"Lana, I'm here for you."

After Bill closed his eyes, he didn't feel the pain of tearing his body. When he opened his eyes again, he found a young and handsome figure in front of him.

It's that student Rhodes.

"Student Rhodes, why are you here?"

[The target is successfully killed, the skill attack power +200]

[Soul-Draining Blow] Instantly killed the orc leader. Now Rhodes has grown too much. At that time, he had to find a chance to kill the orc leader who was weaker than this.

Now facing a more powerful orc leader, he was able to instantly kill him casually.

"I originally wanted to make friends with Lord Bill, but I didn't expect to encounter this incident. It seems that I came at the right time."

"Student Rhodes is dangerous here, hurry back and bring the news to the rear!"

Bill's first thought was the overall situation.

"Don't worry, Lord Bill, your men have safely evacuated from this area."

Rhodes comforted Bill first, and then rushed directly to the orc army. They are not many in number, but they are of high quality. They belong to sports cars and epic wild monsters, all of which are skill layers!

"Woo~~~~Woo~~~"

As a result, Rhodes had just rushed over when the horn sounded from the orc side, and then the orcs retreated into the black mist.

There was an uncomfortable feeling in the depths of the black mist. Rhodes didn't chase after him deeply, and helped others up after returning.

"Ahem, thank you, student Rhodes."

Unlike ordinary people, Bill who escaped from death did not feel much excitement, but thanked Rhodes very seriously.

He didn't expect the young academy student in front of him to be so powerful.

But thinking that the academy has always been known for its geniuses, others felt relieved.

"You're welcome, this is what it should be. I admire the actions of Lord Bill."

On the way back, Bill couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the reason for Rhodes' pursuit.

"I didn't expect some old things to save my life."

After returning to Pala City, Bill began to arrange city defense affairs while receiving treatment.

"All the city defense forces are activated, and the whole city enters a wartime state."

Bill arranged all kinds of affairs in an orderly manner. He knew that there would definitely be bigger moves on the side of the orcs, and he also knew that the current strength of Pala City could not resist the real orc army at all.

The orc tribe has been preparing for so many years, and they will definitely not give up their plan because of a small mistake.

They didn't chase themselves and Rhodes at that time, which didn't mean the orcs gave up. On the contrary, they must be gathering more troops, so they didn't act rashly.

The orcs felt that Rhodes was more difficult to deal with, so they simply returned to the large army and wanted to use their collective strength to flatten the city of Pala.

Bill arranged the affairs in the city in the fastest time, and then let the others talk to Rhodes, saying:

"Student Rhodes, can I ask you something."

"You can say it, Lord Bill."

For this different nobleman, Rhodes admired him very much, and Bill's various behaviors called him a real man.

There are too many things on this man.

"Student Rhodes, will you help cover the evacuation of the civilians in the city to the south? I will find a way to delay the orc army's footsteps as much as possible. Pala City will definitely not be able to defend against the next attack. It will take another day for reinforcements to arrive."

After hearing Bill's words, Rhodes was a little surprised: "Master Bill, isn't the city wall of our Pala city very suitable for defense?"

Bill smiled wryly: "Our city wall is indeed strong, but the military supplies in Pala City are not enough. First of all, there are not enough magic crystals to provide magic power for the magic circle built to protect the city wall, and the number of troops is limited. The reserve team is involved in the defense, but our weapons and equipment are not enough."

Although Bill usually manages well, the city of Pala has been quiet for hundreds of years before that, and usually does not store too many military supplies.

The point of friction between humans and the orc tribes is also far away from Pala City, so Pala City is almost impossible to defend against the sudden impact of a large number of orc troops.

After Rhodes heard Bill's words, he thought of a way.

"Master Bill, are you saying that if we have enough military supplies and weapons, we will be able to deal with the onslaught of the orcs?"

"It is not able to fully cope, but it is no problem to persist until the arrival of reinforcements."

Bill didn't know why Rhodes asked such a question, but he answered it anyway.

"Well, Lord Bill, take me to the warehouse in our city. I seem to have a solution to this problem."
