Amy's large-scale recruitment actually seems irrational - but Leon is missing and his father is trapped. In this situation, no one can keep Amy rational.

Conscription and preparation for war are necessary in themselves, but the problem is that the large-scale recruitment of civilians caused the news of Li Ang's disappearance to spread quickly.

Of course, this news was not easy to block in the first place - the city defense army fought a battle with the Knights of the Dawn for Leon's reputation, and the people of Filzwei also knew about it. Even if they issued a hush order, they would cover it up for a few days at most.

It cannot be sealed.

But this kind of news, even if it is concealed for only a few days, can have a big effect.

Now there is no cover for a day, and there is a lot of noise, which makes the Crow Kingdom, which was fulfilling the cooperation agreement, directly withdraw its troops - the Crow Kingdom soon learned that Li Ang was missing, so the previous agreement was naturally useless

, the Crow Kingdom will naturally not lose its troops again.

Although tearing up the agreement was tantamount to declaring war, Gregory IV had to rush back to deal with Ursula, and there was nothing he could do.

Subsequently, the situation in the Lion Kingdom became very difficult.

The departure of the raven people caused the war situation in Qiaoyan Bay to take a turn for the worse. Brennus got a chance to breathe and quickly launched a counterattack while Godric and Leofric were trapped in the Bog Castle.

At the same time, the Bacchus Empire also responded quickly. The Kalon Deer Castle where Anson was located faced his old friend Governor Justus; the Sava River Fort was also quickly captured by General Agathon.

——If Li Ang is still there, Emperor Marius will definitely give Li Ang face. But if Li Ang is missing, then Emperor Marius will definitely not give face to the Lion Kingdom...

On the contrary, Anson had more face. Justus politely asked Anson to take everyone who was willing to leave back to Changhe Town, and did not directly attack Cullen Deer Castle.

Of course, this is also for Alina's sake - Alina is currently in Lion City, so Justice will naturally not be too tough.

After hesitating for a while, Ansen remembered a letter Li Ang once wrote to Emperor Marius - if the land is lost, the people will be saved, and both the people and the land will be saved; if the people are saved, the land will be lost, and both the people and the land will be lost.

So he wrote these sentences in a military report and sent them to Amy, and at the same time brought everyone from Karen Deer Castle and Salem Village back to Changhe Town, without blindly losing strength.

In this way, the entire county of Cullen Castle was returned to the Bacchus Empire.

At the same time, there was also a problem on Desha's side - Caliph Tahir, the lord of Sinjar City, led his troops to attack Kelledan Fort on the southwest border of the Kingdom of Lions, but Ramon did not respond at all.

If nothing happened to Li Ang, Ramon would definitely give a warning in advance and might even directly block Tahir, but Li Ang is gone...

In just these twenty days, the Lion Kingdom suddenly became surrounded by enemies on all sides.

Amir and the Far Country were recaptured by Brennus' counterattack, and Leofric was trapped in the Bog Castle and resisted with difficulty.

The Sava River Fort area was captured by Agathon, and the Qicha Fortress had not yet been rebuilt, and the empire's newly formed cavalry had already appeared near Yalaghar.

Howling Castle and Short Howling Village are both occupied by Fieldsway, and Count Airy's team has appeared in Azgod.

The castle of Kelledan and Belmont Farai fell into the hands of the Desha people, and Baranli, the burial place of the lion kings of all generations, was also in danger - the funerary objects in the king's tomb were enough to make the Desha people give it a try.

The capital city of Lion City is about to directly face attacks from various countries!

Fortunately, Amy ordered the recruitment of some new troops, otherwise the empty Lion City would probably have to face a hard battle now...

There is only one reason for all of this - Li Ang is missing.

It was only now that the people of the Lion Kingdom fully realized that it turned out that Li Ang, the young Grand Duke of Changhe Town, did not rise to power through nepotism. He was the one who made other countries afraid to act rashly.

Without Li Ang, the Lion Kingdom has become a tempting big cake.

The only good news is that after recovering the lost territory of the Bacchus Empire, Emperor Marius gave Amy a chance to breathe - Emperor Marius said that out of the sisterhood of Alina and Amy, as long as the Kingdom of the Lion is willing

By supplying money, food and military supplies, the Bacchus Empire was willing to help the Lion Kingdom deal with several other countries...

This is conspiracy, a method that both Marius and Leon are good at - they are indeed like-minded.

Amy knew very well that if she did not join forces with Bacchus, the Lion Kingdom would probably be doomed.

But if Emperor Marius is allowed to 'help' the Kingdom of Lions, he will be drinking poison to quench his thirst. The towns around the City of Lions will probably soon become the headquarters of various legions of the Bacchus Empire - in the territory of the Kingdom of Lions, using the poison of alcohol to quench his thirst.

The Kingdom of Lion attacks other countries for money and food. No matter how it is attacked, it will be of huge benefit to Bacchus. Marius will certainly do this kind of business.

Emperor Marius' intention was actually to use the Kingdom of Lion as a battlefield, use the national power of the Kingdom of Lion to accelerate the recovery of the Bacchus Empire's national power, and drag other countries into the quagmire of war in the Kingdom of Lion.

Even if the Lion Kingdom and other countries don't want to fight, with the Bacchus Empire 'assisting' and provoking them from both sides, this war will never be finished.

When the Bacchus Empire has absorbed enough blood and is strong enough to conquer the continent, the Kingdom of the Lion will be finished.

But before that happens, the Fierce Lion Realm will always be in the flames of war and will never stop for a moment.

This dead situation can only be broken through force and all countries can be defeated - but without the Noldor elves, it will definitely not be broken.

Or, give up the entire western part of the Lion Kingdom... retreat to the eastern part of the kingdom, the most stable area, away from the quagmire of war, then sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and silently accumulate strength to wait for opportunities.

However, Godric was still besieged in Mirk Castle, and the kingdom's main army was either in Mirk Castle or Lion City.

Amy can't give up the western part of the kingdom, and she doesn't dare to give up - if she dares to abandon Lion City, all the nobles and city defense troops will definitely surrender to the enemy! These are the children of the nobles in Lion City and the surrounding areas, and they can't abandon their territory and leave their hometown.

.

Therefore, although Amy is not happy, she has to accept this 'covenant', and the nobles in Lion City also hope that Queen Amy will accept it...

Alina did not leave Lion City. She stayed with Amy and gave Amy a lot of pertinent advice sincerely.

But the decline of the Lion Kingdom is already doomed.

"Boy, your safety is directly related to the survival of a kingdom and the war situation of the entire continent... You are very much like me in those days, and you are worthy of my blood..."

After talking about the current situation of the Lion Kingdom, Kavala gave his summary.

Li Ang frowned. Judging from the current situation, the situation may worsen even more than that.

There are many things that Kavala doesn't know.

If he disappears, the large-denomination magic coins that were just issued will probably lose their credibility, and the bank will definitely face a run...

This will inevitably trigger an economic crisis throughout the east.

His subordinates may also fall apart. In his absence, lords such as Fothert and Inna will not obey Amy's command, and Sigismund and others may also find somewhere else to live.

And Wendy will definitely not return to the Noldor Forest honestly. She will definitely try her best to find herself - if she is not in the Noldor Forest and her 'Sindari' identity is not suppressed, what will the Noldor do?

What will Aldarion do?

The trust established between the Noldor elves and humans is likely to be broken again.

If he was not here and Wendy was not here, then the White Deer Castle area would inevitably be captured by Aldarion in one fell swoop - Aldarion had always wanted to make humans kill each other and take the Noldor to take over the continent.

By then, the entire continent will no longer have peace at all, and it will be really difficult to restore it.

"It seems that I must go back quickly, otherwise the Kingdom of the Lion may be gone... and even the Noldor elves may be in serious trouble... But how can I go back?"

Li Ang looked at the brazier.

Althea also became worried. She could think of what would happen if Leon, the bridge between humans and the Noldor, was no longer there.

"If the code is with you, it would be easy to go back. But since the code is gone, there is only one last option left... How did you come back?"

There was also a hint of helplessness in Kavala's voice.

"But... I made that code through lightning..."

Li Ang frowned, looked back at the door of the temple, and his unfinished words stopped abruptly.

He realized what Kavala wanted him to do...

The gate of the temple is exactly the same as the page in the code. This is the large 'Gate of the Abyss', or 'Gate of Heaven'.

"It seems that you have understood... My child, what can be done in the Code can also be done here."

Kavala said softly.

"What exactly is that code? The three prophets said it was the Gate of the Abyss, and Egrem said it was the Gate of Heaven...what exactly is it?"

Li Ang looked at the door of the temple and asked with a frown.

"Ha, the abyss is actually the Kingdom of Heaven... The Kingdom of Heaven that Egrem is looking for is actually the place where he originally lived - it is actually here. You will understand if you shine a real torch on the dome of the temple."

Kavala seemed to smile.

Li Ang raised his head, and there seemed to be nothing on the top of the temple.

He went to the embers of the fire outside and lit a new torch, holding it up to look at it.

You can't see anything if you look directly, but the firelight casts a shadow on the dome.

There is something suspended there that is invisible to the naked eye, but can be reflected in the firelight. It looks like an oval cantilever structure - probably consistent with the galaxy pattern on the door.

Li Ang turned his head and looked at the soul fire on the wall, and then realized that although the soul fire could illuminate the temple, it could not leave a shadow on any object - this was completely inconsistent with optical logic. No wonder he always felt that this temple

Somewhat unnatural.

"Is that the abyss?"

Li Ang seemed to understand somewhat.

"That is not only an abyss, but also a door to the void. I don't know what it was originally called. But I know that every god leaves through this door and must return to the earth through this door.

…”

There was something else in Kavala's words: "But... the gods who have left should not come back."

"So, who built this temple? And who brought you here?"

Li Ang asked.
