Chapter 2388
"Damn it, why is it so cold? You know, it's still midsummer right now!" A soldier trembled and relied on rubbing his body to keep himself warm.
"Eisen, stop complaining. We are doing okay now guarding the city gate. Look at the brothers guarding the city wall. I feel like they are almost frozen into ice sculptures!"
Two soldiers guarding the city gate were entangled in the wind and snow.
"Complain... With this damn weather, even merchants won't come out to do business. Are we still afraid of those people coming to attack us?" Aisen complained, as if he wanted to find a topic to dispel the coldness.
"Haha...hehe, with this damn weather, the moat is frozen, maybe people have crossed the moat? After this period, I heard news that coal and cotton clothes have been delivered to us, very soon
You can handle it soon." Nori laughed and sniffed.
However, what they didn't know at this time was that in the heavy snow with a visibility of only thirty to forty meters, there was an army heading towards the city where they were.
Each of them was covered with white canvas, their heads lowered and silent, and they were like ghosts, heading towards their goal.
And when they were about to arrive in front of the city gate, the soldiers on the city wall finally spotted them.
However, the soldier opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that he could not make a sound at all. His body seemed to be frozen. He looked at his companions around him in horror, only to see those who were still trembling.
Each of his companions has become like an ice sculpture.
And when he looked down, he saw that only his head was not frozen.
Everything happened quietly.
Even the heavy city gate was like brittle ice being opened by heavy objects and scattered in all directions.
The two soldiers guarding the city who were still communicating with each other have now turned into ice sculptures, completely lifeless, but their faces still retain the same expressions they had when they were alive.
A city has so quietly turned into a dead zone, and in the end, the originally living people will put on white canvas, join the march, and move forward.
In the royal capital far away from this border city, a soldier knelt under the throne, surrounded by nobles and ministers of the royal palace standing on both sides.
Whether it is architectural style or anything else, their current style is completely like a Middle-earth century style from Western Europe on Earth. If Xiang Ning were here, he would probably say "sword and magic".
"Your Majesty, Border Saiyan City..." The soldier's face was full of horror. He didn't know how to continue describing what he wanted to say.
The king on the throne, with his beard, is not like other people who become fat and bloated once they become kings. Instead, he gives people an extremely fierce temperament, which makes people feel that he is not suitable to sit on the throne.
On that throne.
Rather, it is suitable for riding a war horse and galloping on the frontier!
"Speak slowly, don't be nervous." His words were very calm, as if the bells coming from the lighthouse could soothe people's hearts and calm the warrior's mood.
Then he said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for not knowing how to describe it to you. The border city of Saiyan was... destroyed."
The soldier thought for a moment, and in the end, the word "annihilated" was the best way to describe it.
Because in fact it was true, quietly, everyone died and the city was destroyed.
When the king heard the news, he frowned suddenly, looked at the soldier and said, "Destroyed? Why has there been no news of asking for help before?"
His focus was not on the destruction of Saiyan City, but on why Saiyan City was destroyed, but no news came out, that is, news of asking for help, or news of reporting.
And fear appeared on the warrior's face, and he said: "It's the ice and stone demon from the north. Now in this midsummer, the borderland is experiencing extreme cold. I believe you all should know it."
The expressions of many of the palace's nobles, counselors and knights changed.
Of course, they had known about this news before, but they only thought it was a natural disaster or something that only happened once in a hundred years. Although it was rare, it was not surprising.
At that time, they were still discussing various risks, and some even proposed going out of the border to investigate the cause in depth, but they were rejected by most people at the time because they felt that what happened this time was not a big deal.
But now, a large border city has disappeared without a trace, which makes them very upset.
The man sitting on the throne did not care about the facial expressions of those people at this time, but looked at the warrior and said: "What is the situation now?"
"Now we are observing from a distance. On the second day, they will arrive at Dongyan City. If Dongyan City is lost, there will only be one Quanshan Pass left from our royal capital!"
The king stood up slowly: "It seems that they will not give up if they don't achieve their goal this time."
Seemingly seeing what the king was planning, a counselor quickly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, now dispatch personnel to Quanshanguan, and let the generals guarding Quanshanguan lead the army to Dongyan City to ensure that Dongyan City is safe.
First, then we will ask for assistance from the Allied Forces, otherwise, it will be impossible for us, the Lucca Kingdom, to withstand it with our strength alone, and even...if possible, we can ask for help from the Jukan Empire."

On the other side, Xiang Ning and Noral had just entered the fifth universe. After entering the fifth universe, Xiang Ning and Noral returned to the ground and became like ordinary people.
When he learned that the fifth universe had human territory and even a super empire, Xiang Ning felt that he had come to see it.
And where he is now, there is an official road, which is paved with bluestones. People here still use horse-drawn carriages as a means of transportation and transportation.
Of course, the carriages here use not only horses, but also some huge lizards.
According to what they said here, it was a huge lizard, otherwise according to what Xiang Ning said, it was a dragon.
"It seems that the ecological environment here is quite good, and it can breed this kind of life." Xiang Ning looked at the dragons one after another. In the wild universe, Xiang Ning had only seen purebred dragons like the mountain dragons.
, there is not even a sub-dragon with bloodline, but here, he actually saw a dragon, even though it is a sub-dragon species.
But as long as there is, it means that there may really be a dragon.
