Four Split Personalities

"The third phase of the Requiem has officially ended five minutes ago!"

Yarist is lacking in virtue gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, directly skipping the reporting process, and read aloud from the message bar, "We’ve achieved a great victory!"

"A great victory?"

Xia Lian was stunned for a moment, instinctively kicking away half a Mutant that had bounced up from the sky, and turned to ask, "We won? Did they win?!"

"We won!"

Yarist is lacking in virtue nodded his head, flush with excitement, and said, "Yes, Your Highness! A total of twelve thousand six hundred and more Mutants have been completely eradicated, and the allied forces have already begun to gather at the Hodir Pass. Soon they will commence the final phase of the Requiem plan!"

Xia Lian took a deep breath, collapsing on the spot as if she had lost all her strength, and then the next second, she got up faster than she had fallen, fiercely kicking away two Mutants attempting to take advantage of her weakness, and shouted with full vigor, "Awesome! None of you fuckers let me down!"

"Indeed, Your Highness,"

Yarist is lacking in virtue also smiled and said, "We’ve won half the battle."

Xia Lian’s eyes, which had somewhat lost focus, were bright once again. She asked excitedly, "So when exactly does the final phase begin? When are they coming? How long is ’soon’ according to that kid Hei Fan?"

"Uhh..."

Yarist is lacking in virtue suddenly stiffened, hesitated for quite a while before awkwardly asking with a smile, "Well, Lord Hei Fan asked me to inquire, how much longer can you hold out?"

Xia Lian froze for a moment, "What do you mean by ’hold out’?"

"One moment, please."

Yarist is lacking in virtue seemed to drift off for a moment, then loudly said, "Lord Hei Fan means to ask, assuming you don’t die in battle, how long can you continue to defend this position?"

Xia Lian’s expression turned ugly on the spot. After swinging her cross and sending a few Mutants flying, she gritted her teeth and said, "Ask him whether being half-dead counts as ’not dying in battle’."

Yarist is lacking in virtue fell silent again for a while, then nodded somewhat awkwardly, "Lord Hei Fan says... um."

"That little bastard!"

Xia Lian cursed fiercely, then with a sullen face, she said sternly, "Two hours, at most two hours, and then have him explain why."

Yarist is lacking in virtue nodded, opening the message bar to quickly draft a reply to Lord Hei Fan...

...

One minute later

Yarist is lacking in virtue raised his head, his face ashen as he said, "The third phase brought us heavy losses. Despite having annihilated the enemy, the first to third combat sequences totaled over four hundred fallen warriors. The support sequence disobeyed orders to launch the final charge, sacrificing two hundred people, including thirty percent civilians. The heavy armored intercept squadron that was covering the Holy Knight Order survived with only twenty-seven out of their ranks. The Grand Priest Cavos of the Fertile Sect has fallen in battle. High Priest Ferman has lost his left eye and is currently in critical condition. The Holy Knight Order, which led the charges and acted as the spearhead in the last push, suffered a thirty percent reduction in forces... Out of the three hundred and one knights who survived, more than forty are still unconscious."

Xia Lian’s heart skipped a beat.

"Lord Hei Fan says everyone needs to rest a bit, but two hours should be sufficient..."

"No."

Xia Lian quietly interrupted him, clenching the cross in her hand tightly...

"Tell him I was just joking, we can hold on for at least four more hours here. Tell them not to rush over, they can sleep a bit, play a couple rounds of Deception Cards, and still make it in time."
