Travels to the Holy Light Continent

Chapter 102 The mantis stalks the cicada

On this day, Aetius was leading his proud cavalry towards Plato. His right eyelid had been twitching, and as an experienced man he felt that something bad was about to happen.

"Slow! Stop! Set up camp right here!"

"Marshal, what happened? It's still early and we can walk for another two hours!" said the subordinate.

"I don't know either, but I feel really bad. My right eyelid keeps twitching. Let me take a rest first! Did the people I sent out the day before yesterday report back?"

"No, I have sent another outpost to check, and they replied that Plato was not ready to go, so he should not have discovered our whereabouts. The people sent out the day before yesterday may have encountered a monster or something and can't come back!"

"I hope I am just worrying too much!"

Late at night, when everyone was fast asleep, a whooshing sound pierced the sky.

"There is an enemy attack!"

Everyone got dressed and stood up immediately after hearing this. As expected of the number one general, the soldiers he trained were so quick. In less than a minute, those sleeping soldiers were ready to go.

"Where are the enemies?" Aetius asked loudly.

"Reporting to the Marshal, an egg of a fourth-level magical beast, the Colorful Python, fell into our camp. It's possible that a high-level flying magical beast grabbed the egg and accidentally dropped it to the ground!"

"Giant python? ! Is there a giant python's nest around?" Aetius asked hurriedly.

"no!"

"Are you sure? This giant python is a social monster. If there is a nest nearby and they smell the eggshells, we will be dead!" Aetius said seriously.

"I am sure."

Aetius heard this and ordered everyone to go back to sleep. When everyone fell asleep again, several whooshing sounds were heard. This time everyone woke up a step slower than before. Aetius ran out wearing the general's armor and asked, "Who is it this time?"

"General, a few more eggs fell to the ground, it's not an enemy attack!"

Aetius touched his chin when he heard this, and then he said in shock, "Damn it! There must be an enemy attack! Quick, everyone, get ready and get out of here!"

After hearing the marshal's order, everyone got up and packed up their tents, but Aetius shouted directly, "Don't worry about the food and tents, get on your horses and retreat!"

Aetius was worthy of being the number one general. He knew my plan in just a few seconds. But how could I give him this opportunity? I was commanding a huge unicorn giant from a distance. He was holding a huge bowl in his hand, which was filled with a lot of egg liquid. Yes, it was the egg liquid of the python. He threw the bowl with force, and the bowl flew towards Aetius' army.

"Oh!"

The bowl fell to the ground with a loud noise and the egg liquid inside spilled everywhere, staining the soldiers and horses. Aetius was instantly discouraged.

"hiss!!!"

Countless colorful pythons crawled over quickly and attacked Aetius' army. Although Aetius hated them, he could only command his soldiers to fight to the death.

The cavalrymen were in chaos at this time. Horses are naturally afraid of snakes, so when they saw the giant python, they spread their legs and ran away. Many knights were thrown off the spot. Some fell to their death, and some survived by chance but were immediately trampled to death by the horses coming from behind.

The soldiers who had not yet mounted their horses picked up their swords and fought with them, but how could they defeat such a large number of giant pythons? Soon, the 30,000 elite cavalry were killed by the ruthless giant pythons.

In fact, I was the one who lured these giant pythons here. I used the earth escape technique to steal all the eggs of the giant pythons into my own space ring. Later, I found a few eggs on the road from time to time and led them to the vicinity of Aetius's army.

When everything was ready, I came to the place I had prepared in advance. There was a unicorn waiting for me there. In order to attract the python, I beat the snake eggs twice, just to let more colorful pythons surround Aetius and his group. I waited until they found me before I fired the prepared eggs. The sharp colorful pythons of course thought that Aetius was the murderer who stole their children, which led to this tragedy.
