Chapter 968 【0959】 Withdrawal?

The battle in Naerimajie was like a roller coaster. After passing the highest point of the stalemate and the fiercest battle between the two sides, it quickly swooped down.

With the completion of the powerful gravity field, the problem of insufficient combat power at the top levels of the Shurima Unified Army has been exposed.

With the Ascended Ones, the number and equipment of ordinary soldiers are sufficient, but the insufficient number of Transcendents has caused a serious disconnect between the Ascended Ones and ordinary soldiers. Without their cover, even Nasus and Renekton cannot face more than three Countless extraordinary beings laid siege to the city.

In the end, the Shurima Unified Army withdrew from the city walls of Nerima Jie in great embarrassment. Although they still maintained a siege situation, the siege activities had to be stopped.

Kalya could hear the news that the Rakkor had raised a mini version of the sun disk, and Azir naturally knew it, so the Shurima Unified Army also knew the origin of this powerful gravity field.

But the problem is, they don't know which river or culvert the Rakkor transport the ascension power through. Unless they can completely cut off all the tributaries and underground runoff of the Shurima River west of Nerimaje, they will know it. The source of the powerful gravity field also makes no sense.

As for cutting off the Shurima River, let’s not talk about how difficult it is. Even if the unified army can do it, they will not be able to do it. The Shurima River not only has extremely important symbolic meaning, but it is also the center of Shurima. Once the runoff of the Shurima River, the most important shipping river, decreases, will the unified army's supplies have to rely on manpower and Skalas transport?

Considering how difficult the Nerimajie defenders are, I am afraid that their logistics will collapse before the city wall has even taken down a few layers!

For a time, the unified army was in a dilemma.

Nasus also tried to find the location of the energy river, but the Thousand River Diversion Project was too complicated. Even if there were backups of relevant materials in the big library, it would probably take until the Year of the Monkey to sort them out. The unified army was in Naerimajie. The city was consuming an astonishing amount of food and grass every day. By the time he figured out all the problems with the Thousand River Diversion Project, New Shurima's wealth would have been depleted long ago.

Then, just when Azir was helpless, Kalya quietly came to the camp of New Shurima and brought them great news.

……………………

"Do you know their energy river?" After hearing that Kalya had taken care of everything, Azir realized for the first time that "having an elder in a family is like having a treasure." "Yes, you were the one who started this project. Hosted..."

"I can help with the task of cutting off the energy river. The battle with Nerimajie is not the end. After taking this city, you have to follow me to Mount Targon."

"Us?" Azir blinked, "Me and Xerath?"

"Not only you and Xerath, but also Nasus and Renekton." Kalya shook his head gently, "Of course, there are also some other old friends."

Azir's expression became serious.

Although Kalya did not explain the identities of those "old friends", the only ones who can be called together with people like himself...are probably those dark descendants.

And listening to Kalya's wishes, he summoned more than one group of people this time.

After gathering so many people, the goal was still Mount Targon... To be honest, for a moment, Azir was really worried that Kalya would go to Targon to fight for his life.

But considering Kalya's character, he probably wouldn't do this - even if he did, he should be fully prepared, right?

Azir is willing to believe Kalya.

But now he is charged with the mission of reviving New Shurima, and Kalya has made it clear that he does not want to be involved in Shurima matters anymore, which makes Azir hesitate.

Kalya saw his hesitation.

"Although the specific combat plan cannot be disclosed before you join, I can guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with New Shurima. I just need a little help from you." Kalya continued, "And it is absolutely safe."

The guarantee of absolute safety was completely beyond Azir's expectations. He really couldn't imagine what he could do on Mount Targon to ensure absolute safety besides surrendering. However, Kalya was unwilling to reveal anything before he agreed. This made Azir both confused and curious.

After much thought, Azir decided to compromise and let Renekton participate in the plan first, and then listen to Renekton's suggestions.

After hearing what Azir said, Kalya decisively shook his head and refused.

"Rekton is not good. He may not be able to understand. Let's replace him with Nasus."

So, Nasus was signed up and participated in the [One-day Tour to Mount Targon] event.

Then, Kalya pulled him and murmured for a while. After listening, Nasus thought for a moment and finally nodded towards Azir.

In this way, a quite pleasant deal was reached. Kalya would cut off the Rakkor's energy river to help the unified army of New Shurima, so that they could launch a surprise attack while the Rakkor were unprepared.

Afterwards, Azir, Xerath, Nasus and Renekton will go to Mount Targon for a [One-Day Tour to Mount Targon] with Kalya.

Just leave.

The Shurima unified army quickly assumed the posture of a strong man with his arms cut off, and began to retreat with great fanfare and prepared for battle. Azir personally broke off the rear and was stationed in the camp, covering the troop transports' retreat eastward along the Shurima River. During this period, Nerima Jie made several attempts to pursue, but was repulsed.

In the sight of Rakkor and Nerimajie, the Shurima Unified Army slowly returned. While strengthening the fortress and preventing pursuit, several ships were withdrawn every day. The Unified Army's camp gradually became deserted. , there is little smoke even during meals.

The Rakkor people, who were not completely at ease, launched several attacks on the camp, but were repelled. Judging from the fighting situation, the number of the unified army was indeed much smaller, and the camp was also much empty.

It seems that after Azir discovered that he could not break through the defense of the powerful gravity field, he decisively chose to leave. Even if he lost face, he still had to keep his dignity!

Under this situation, the Nerimajie people began to celebrate their victory - because of the long siege, even though Nerimajie had prepared well in advance and stocked up a lot of supplies, their life was not comfortable at this time. After most of the Shurima Unified Army withdrew, they opened up the trade of some necessities. Although the entire city still maintained a certain degree of defense, the defenders' nerves finally relaxed.

After all, there is a powerful gravity field, and they are not afraid of the Shurima Unified Army coming back.

However, what they never expected was that just when the lights of the unified army camp were gradually extinguished and the last team was about to withdraw, the powerful gravity field outside Nerimajie City suddenly disappeared.

Almost at the moment when the gravity field disappeared, the unified army camp that was supposed to have few troops suddenly lit up torches, and a huge army came out carrying various engineering equipment.

At the same time, countless magical fireworks bloomed in the sky, illuminating the west and south walls of Nerimajie as bright as day.

Withdraw troops?
