Though spitting blood, Ah Lann still fought relentlessly, striving for every second of evacuation.
In the end, the heavily injured Ah Lann was desperately escorted back to the city by the clan.
When Tu Hu saw Ah Lann again, his entire body was bathed in blood, the metal spear in his hand bent.
Breaking free from his clansmen's restraint, he staggered back to Tu Hu, grabbing his arm with astonishing strength.
His gaze was a mix of agony and plea:
"Hu, take the children away; they are the future of the clan. Star Valley can fall, but the fire must continue. Go!"
With those words, he gave Tu Hu a fierce push, then turned around to face the tide-like oncoming Rock Armor Giants through the breach in the city wall, raising his bent war spear with all his remaining strength, releasing the most resonant and tragic roar of his life.
He launched a death charge.
