This is the first time Zhang Xiaoman has come into direct contact with the pinnacle power of this world.

What I have to say is that compared to the eighth-level Fox, the two strong men at the ninth level give people a completely different feeling.

The energy in their bodies is countless times greater than that of the former. The difference between the two is like a battery and a generator. The energy in the bodies of ninth-level powerhouses seems to be endless, and there is a tendency to become one with nature.

Zhang Xiaoman felt quite strange. The energy limit of these two people was very high, almost catching up with those fifth-level alien species.

Unfortunately, their energy belongs to low-level elemental power, not dark spiritual power, so in terms of actual combat ability, these two are not necessarily Zhang Xiaoman's opponents.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little late studying the spell."

"No, Your Excellency came on time, please take a seat."

Romelle pointed at the empty seat next to him.

Zhang Xiaoman was not polite and walked over and sat down. Only after he sat down did the meeting officially begin.

First is the discussion about this war.

"Your Majesty, an urgent report came back from the front line today. The orc army is gathering on the edge of Kuhan City and is about to launch a general attack. Our scouts have already detected their priest group. The intensity of this attack may be the highest in history.

Kuhan's situation is very critical, please hurry up and provide reinforcements!"

"Priest group!? How big is it!?"

"At least more than five hundred people, Your Majesty!"

"Damn! Can't we send out the Griffin Knights to annihilate them first?"

"No, Your Majesty. The opponent is protected by the main force of wind cavalry, so there is no chance at all. Moreover, even if our Griffin Knights face those priests head-on, they probably don't have much chance of winning..."

The first question at the beginning of the meeting put everyone in a dilemma, which can also be seen as to what the current situation is.

Zhang Xiaoman has been staying in his room these days and hasn't paid much attention to the situation outside. It was only then that he realized the critical nature of the war situation.

"Your Majesty, our envoys have reported back that the Rock Demon Clan has established an alliance with the Orcs, and I believe they will be able to send troops to the battlefield soon! The Rock Demon Clan are all proficient in escape spells, move very quickly, and are good at bypassing and making surprise attacks.

They may arrive at the battlefield in three days at the latest!"

"Your Majesty! The price of food around Kuhan City has soared to thirteen times the normal price! The price of food in our rear has also risen sharply, twice as high as before. If this continues, it will take less than a month for the front line to be completely destroyed.

collapsed!"

"Your Majesty! I received news from the Lord of Moleban City. They have been harassed by a large number of mercenaries recently. Not only have villages around the city been looted, but there are even teams openly robbing grain trucks! What these people have done

Because they are simply more abominable than the beasts of the beast tribe, I beg your Majesty to order those murderers to be severely punished!"

"..."

For a time, several ministers in charge of various royal affairs in the imperial court stood up one after another and reported the problems they encountered one by one.

Romell's face grew darker as he heard this, and his whole body began to exude an aura of irritability and anger.

This is the first time he has faced a war situation since he took the throne, and it is also the first time the entire Kingdom of Adren has faced a war of this scale in the past thirty years.

After facing a series of urgent reports, Romell, who was still very passionate at first, calmed down from the passionate fantasy state at the beginning and was brought back to the cruel reality.

The power of the Orcs is too huge. They occupy almost the entire grassland of the northern continent, and even the power of the Kingdom of Adren cannot compete with it.

Fortunately, although the orcs are coming fiercely, humans have finally come to their aid.

"Don't worry about the Rock Demon Tribe. We have already formed an alliance with the Elf Tribe. With the Elf Tribe's control over nature, we are definitely the Rock Demon Tribe's nemesis!"

Romel said and glanced at Regina. Seeing the latter nodding slightly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"As for the issue of food, I have ordered the treasury to allocate money and food to give priority to the cities on the front line. Anyone who dares to take this opportunity to hoard food will surely bear the thunderous wrath of the kingdom!"

"Also, I will immediately investigate the mercenary intrusion. There are still two of the Seven Guardians of the Mercenary Union in the city. I will summon him today and personally ask what is going on!"

"..."

Romell began to deal with the issues reported by the ministers one by one. However, due to time constraints, he could not take into account all aspects, so he could only pick a few urgent ones to deal with first.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the magic guild's mage group to fight against the orc priests."

McCarvey stood up and said.

Everyone focused their attention on him.

"Teacher, do you want to take action personally? But the Beastman King..."

"Don't worry, Queen Regina and I are both here. Yohad and the Archdruid are also on the way. Plus Mr. Pole Star, this time the five of us Holy Orders will attack together. Urbis

If that guy dares to come, we will definitely make sure he never comes back!"

McAlevey said confidently.

When everyone in the audience heard this lineup, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

If the five saints unite to deal with the Beast King, even if the opponent is also a strong saint, they may not be able to escape.

As soon as they thought of this, everyone started to get excited.

That was a ninth-level strong man. There is almost no one on this continent who has been heard of being able to kill a ninth-level strong man. The most recent one was the great knight lord Paladin who fell into the sky fire three hundred years ago.

Although the orcs are very powerful, they have five ninth-level ones on their side. Coupled with the assistance of the elves and dwarves, victory in this war seems to be just around the corner.

Now all we need to do is hold on for enough time on the front line to withstand the orcs' attack, and then when reinforcements arrive, everyone can launch a counterattack.

The discussion about the war situation did not last too long. The main purpose of this meeting was still the meeting between the three saints.

The irrelevant people were quickly invited out, and there were only four people on the seats left in the room.

"Romel, what I'm going to tell you next may be a little beyond your expectations, but the situation now is different from before, and there are some things I think it is necessary to let you know."

McCarvey looked at his students seriously.

Regina glanced at him and didn't mean to stop him.

Zhang Xiaoman didn't say much, looking like he was just waiting to see what happened.

In fact, he has not said a word since the previous meeting until now, and he is more like a bystander.

His understanding of the situation in this world is still very limited, and war is not what he is good at.

Anyway, if the time comes that his own efforts are needed, as a member of the Binding Breakers, it's not like he can't help.

Seeing that neither of his companions had objections, McCarvey immediately told Romel Gu Zhen some things about the Advent Festival.

After hearing these truths, Romell fell into a daze. The huge impact on his worldview prevented him from coming back to his senses for a while.

Fortunately, as the emperor of a kingdom, although Romel still lacks experience, his character is better than most people after all, and he came back to his senses after being stunned for a moment.

"Teacher, do you mean that your real target this time is not the orcs, but the god in the sky...?"

McCarvey nodded and said:

"Yes, the reason why I gathered all the holy orders is to jointly resist the attack of that god. It's just that because of Urbis, many of our previous plans have been cancelled. Now we have to

If you fight against them, you will probably have to fight tooth and nail."

"Then...Teacher, please tell me this. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Romell asked.

McCarvey shook his head and said:

"Romel, your father knows about this, but he just had an accident last year...and your current strength is still too low. Facing the attack of the gods, no matter how many people you have, it will be useless.

"

"You are the king of mankind. I am telling you this, partly because Urbis's betrayal caught us off guard. We need your assistance to help us eliminate the threat of the orcs as soon as possible."

"On the other hand, on the day of Advent, the fire from heaven will reappear in the world. I don't know how it will appear, but your father has arranged everything in advance. When the time comes, you only need to follow his preparations.

Just do it and leave the rest to us."

McCarvey said a lot. Although his words were more euphemistic, the core meaning was still "you can't help."

In fact, what he said is not wrong. In the face of gods, no matter how many ordinary people there are, it will not help.

Even though Romell is the emperor of Adren, his strength is there and he cannot participate in a battle of this level.

"There are only twelve days left before the Advent Festival. We must seize the time to act. We will be there first on the orc battlefield. I have a plan. As long as a few of us saints gather together, maybe we can

It can lead the sky fire to the grassland of the orcs, and then it will also help us eliminate the orc army in large numbers."

McCarvey said.

Regina nodded.

"Yes, but the premise is that we must defeat Urbis first, otherwise he will not let us pass."

"It shouldn't be difficult to defeat him. We have five saints here. Elkulus and Silna will arrive soon. By then, the seven saints of the Bound Breaker will gather together. I believe there is no power in this world yet.

can stop us."

"No, Lecentra, you are too optimistic. Before coming here, Acatus told me a piece of news. The orcs may not be fighting alone. They seem to be connected with the black dragons who have disappeared for a long time. If this

If the news is true, then the battle may be more difficult than we expected..."

McVeigh was shocked.

"The Black Dragon Tribe? Haven't they fallen into the abyss long ago? Sirna has never heard of them again. When did they appear again? When did this news come about?"
To be continued...
