Release that Witch - Chapter 1185

[Chapter 1158 Defeat]

The celebration only lasted for a short while, and the battlefield became busy again.

Rescuing the wounded, counting the results of the battle, advancing the railway, cleaning the battlefield… these are all urgent matters.

The command is very clear that the victory of this battle does not mean the end of Operation Torch. Although judging by the remaining forces of the devils, it is impossible for them to launch another attack of this scale, and it is almost a foregone conclusion to win Taquila. At the last step, no one dares to take it lightly.

What’s more, the Demon Slayer is still alive. If this threat cannot be completely eliminated, it cannot be regarded as a perfect achievement of the goal.

Human beings are indeed worthy of celebration, but that will have to wait until the Graycastle flag is planted at the highest point of the ruins and they return to Neverwinter.

After some discussions, the top leaders of the United Front reached a consensus – after removing the demons eliminated in this battle, the number of enemies in the ruins of the holy city should be less than five hundred.

From the perspective of strength comparison alone, this means that the opponent no longer has any ability to directly threaten the First Army.

Compared with the steady progress before, the consideration now should be to prevent the demon slayer from escaping – the construction of the tenth tower site can be slowed down, so as not to make the opponent lose the fighting spirit prematurely.

At the same time, the ambush should be launched as soon as possible. Even without Sylvie’s investigation, it is unlikely that the First Army’s position will be attacked by surprise.

In order to avoid having long nights and dreams, after a day’s rest, the First Army started shelling the devil again, but this time, they became the attacking side.

In the face of the roaring shells, the only thing the opponent could do was to retreat step by step, give way to the trenches little by little, and retreat to the ruins of Taquila.

During this period, only the Demon Slayer was left to threaten the defense line. However, as a key target, it was quite difficult to even get close to the position, let alone stop the First Army from advancing.

As it returned without success, the number of its dispatches became less and less.

On the fourth day after the war, the tracks were finally laid into the ten-kilometer shooting circle.

After setting up the artillery positions, Agatha, Phyllis and more than a hundred people were invited by Iron Ax to front the fortress guns lined up.

Since the number of cannons was far from enough, Fan Na, the artillery battalion commander, specially prepared a dozen hemp ropes and tied them with the firing cords.

In this way, they can “simultaneously” fire the first shot aimed at Taquila City.

An awakener born in Taquila, an avenger who purified Taquila…and the builder of the new holy city in the future, every God’s Punishment Witch realizes that this will be a moment of great historical significance.

Regardless of whether they survived the battle of divine will, today’s scene will be remembered in history books.

“I have to apologize to you.” Phyllis held the rope and whispered to Agatha, “Four hundred years ago, I laughed behind your back for using mortals, saying that I would entrust them with the important work at hand. It’s just going to make things messy.”

“A lot of people did say that at the time,” the Ice Witch smiled. “And what about now?”

“Now…” Phyllis raised her lips, “It doesn’t feel bad to fight alongside mortals.”

“Prepare—” At this moment, Faner raised the command flag, “Fire!”

Everyone pulled the firing cord back together, and the booming sound immediately echoed over the position—more than a dozen shells soared into the air, swept across the plain, and fell into the ruins of the holy city one after another.

The violent shock wave scattered with the sound of explosions, sweeping away the wreckage of the ancient city left over 400 years ago, torn apart by the air waves and stone chips, and the devil hiding in it.

…

“It’s started.” Sylvie whispered.

“Hmm.” Andrea responded somewhat casually. Even if she couldn’t see Taquila’s situation, she could still hear one or two from the dull explosion – the tremor was completely different from the roar of the cannon. Even if you are seven or eight kilometers apart, you can still feel the power contained in it.

It is really hard to imagine what kind of experience the devil would have in his heart after being bombarded by the fortress cannon all night.

“Is this the fifth day?” Maggie muttered, “Will the Demon Slayer come over today?”

“Who knows.” Ashes shrugged.

“I really want to go back to Neverdong to eat hot pot and fried dumplings.”

“Gulu.”

Before she could finish her words, there was a sound of bowel movements among the crowd.

“Of course the teppanyaki meat is also good, it would be even better if I can have another ice cream bread———”

Ashes stuffed a piece of dry food into Maggie’s mouth, “If you feel hungry, eat more of this. Although the taste is not very good, at least it can fill your stomach.”

“In addition, everyone, don’t forget that we are still performing tasks,” Camilla Darry added, “you can go back and think about food and so on. Now please concentrate and complete your duties seriously.”

This guy is still so serious, obviously his throat moved just now.

Andrea shook her head secretly, and turned her attention back to Taquila.

When the First Army turned from defense to offense, the special operations team also left the camp according to the predetermined plan, bypassed the ruins of Taquila, and lurked in a forest on the west side of the supply line.

Since they could not determine the intention and time of the demon slayer’s retreat, they could only wait patiently here, waiting for the opportunity to come.

Although survival in the wild is not difficult for the witches, considering that there are still dire beasts in the sky, let alone lighting a fire to roast game, there is not even a tent to protect them from the sun and rain.

Every night, everyone sleeps on a tree wrapped in thick cloth, and eats two wheat cakes when they are hungry, so naturally they will not feel comfortable.

To be honest, when she heard Maggie’s words just now, she also suddenly felt a strong miss for Neverwinter.

When she first followed Tilly from Sleeping Island to Neverwinter, she thought it was just another new foothold, and the so-called “witch homeland” was just the ruler’s bragging. If Tilly decided to leave one day, she would Will follow without hesitation.

But now when faced with this question, Andrea is not too sure…

The big soft bed, various delicacies, automatic flowing hot and cold water, and heating that allows bare feet in winter—even if she was a member of the Quinn nobles, she has never enjoyed such a comfortable life.

It wasn’t a luxury created solely by golden dragons, but was full of sophistication and novelty from beginning to end. When she thought of saying goodbye to these things, she found it really difficult to make a choice.

Fortunately, Tilly and Roland got along well, so she didn’t have to worry about where to go for the time being.

After finishing the Demon Slayer, His Majesty Roland must treat himself well, Andrea thought to herself.

The most ideal result is that the target sticks to Taquila and is blasted to pieces by the artillery; the second is that the ambush team is completely unaware of the existence of the ambush team when they escape, and they are killed by a bullet in the air; the last is that the opponent has already noticed them Possess the ability of long-distance precise blocking, use the ground to fly and constantly change direction to evade, so that it can only be blocked by the Seagull.

However, she faintly didn’t have much confidence in the first two situations. In the night battle five days ago, the demon slayer once approached from Taquila to the sky above the position, but it remained irregular throughout the whole process. The movement never gave her a chance to make a move.

Is this a coincidence, or is it deliberately guarding against itself?

“Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo”

Suddenly, a strange cry came into everyone’s ears.

“What happened?” Ashes asked.

“A cannonball hit the giant skeleton!” Sylvie exclaimed. “A big hole was blown out of its back. My God, that thing…howled!”

“So it can also feel pain? Just looking at the appearance, I thought it was just a dead thing with no shelf.”

“The place that was hit is emitting red mist, like… blood.” Sylvie looked towards the southeast with a solemn expression, “The Demon Slayer has also been dispatched, and it is rushing towards our position.”

“I hope someone can kill it with one shot.” Andrea spread her hands.

“Wait… No, the Demon Slayer flew halfway and turned back!” Sylvie couldn’t help frowning after observing for a while, “What’s going on? The skeleton seems to be retreating! Some demons want to stop the skeleton, but Trampled to a pulp – the ruins are already a mess, they are…”

After a while, she said in an uncertain tone, “The devils are killing each other?”

Andrea and Ashes glanced at each other. No matter from which point of view, this was a sign of defeat—could it be that the enemy finally couldn’t bear the pressure and completely lost their will to fight?

Sylvie’s words soon confirmed this idea.

“The Demon Slayer escaped from Taquila!”
