Chapter 261 Heretic Invasion(1/2)
Author: Bamboo Basket Frame Water
————Dilin Port, port
After weeks of military preparations, more and more human warriors began to arrive from all over Pendor, preparing to participate in this new expedition.
Since the hotel rooms were full, tens of thousands of simple camps were set up outside Imperial Port to receive Pendor soldiers who were eager to join the expedition.
"The seventy-fifth round of selection has officially begun. Those soldiers who volunteer to participate in the expedition are invited to gather at the training ground!"
On the training ground, countless Pendor warriors were naked with their muscular upper bodies, constantly fighting with each other with wooden swords and shields, their eyes full of fighting intent.
Because there were so many people who came to sign up, Rohan had to use this method to select the first batch of Pendor's auxiliary troops to board the Black Ark.
On the deck of the Black Ark, Rissadilan frowned and looked at the Pendor soldiers who were screening below, and then said dissatisfied with Mekasa who was sunbathing next to her:
"Can't you change places? Or you can consider changing into more conservative clothes. This can easily affect morale."
"What's wrong? You must know that this is the latest popular style in Nagarond. Don't you like my outfit, sister?"
Faced with Risa Dilan's accountability, Mekasa not only did not restrain herself, but jumped up from the sun lounger and walked toward Risa Dilan with cat steps.
Her slender yet plump figure, paired with her barely-there warlock attire, immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the deck.
However, faced with such an erotic scene, Risa Dilan's face did not change at all. Instead, she reminded with some dissatisfaction:
"Hmph, put away that makeup of yours. The time appointed by Lord Rohan is coming soon. Your appearance is not suitable for serious occasions."
Due to Rohan's personal blessing and the hidden identity of the members of the Inquisition, Rissa Dilan was subconsciously wary of this sorceress under Morathi's command.
Loyalty is not absolute, it is absolutely disloyal!
Even as a Noldor elf, Rissadilan already had a basic understanding of Morathi's identity and background through Daario and books.
That's a crazy woman!
As a follower of the madwoman, who can ensure that the sorceress can remain loyal to Lord Rohan when she conflicts with Morathi in the future?
Seeing that Lisa Dilan didn't trust her so much, Mekasha couldn't help but feel a flash of sadness in her eyes, and she didn't understand why everyone seemed to reject her.
She was not stupid, so she could naturally see that Rohan's subordinates were wary of her, which made her feel very unhappy.
She is obviously just a sorceress who locked herself in Grond's laboratory and indulged in academic research. Why does everyone treat her as a spy sent by Morathi?
Although in a sense, she is indeed Morathi's apprentice...
After getting rid of all the messy thoughts in her mind, Mekasha finally put on a robe honestly, and then couldn't help but said depressedly:
"Our preparations should have been completed. One hundred thousand Pendor soldiers have also boarded the ship. Why hasn't Lord Rohan come over yet?"
"Hush! Master Luohan has his own reasons for doing things. You and I can't guess at will. Just wait patiently!"
Looking at the sun that had begun to set towards the west in the sky, Lisa Dilan was also a little confused in her heart, but she still firmly maintained Rohan's majesty in the hearts of others.
Anyway, whatever Lord Rohan does is right, they just need to obey!
Seeing that her words were refuted over and over again by the other party, Mekasa couldn't help but lie back on the sun lounger with some anger, and couldn't help but mutter:
"You are truly heartless. Can an elf like you who doesn't know how to make girls happy really find a female companion?"
————Dimensional rift, demon space
On the blood-red castle, the demon goddess Ereida was looking at the tens of thousands of demon troops below with satisfaction, obviously ready for battle.
While Ereda continued to admire her work, Dario's voice suddenly came from the crystal ball behind her, reminding her:
"My goddess, today is when Rohan leads his main army to leave Pendor, but I still recommend that you wait a few days before launching an attack to prevent possible ambush."
"Oh~ don't worry, there is no army in the Crow Realm that can confront me head-on. I can definitely deal with the remaining defenders on my own."
Facing Daario's reminder, Ereda didn't take it to heart at all, but instead picked up the wine glass with the victory in hand.
According to the information sent back by the demons, the combined military strength of the entire Raven Realm is not as large as her demons, not to mention that her demon warriors can fight one against a hundred!
And she already has full confidence in this war:
Fifty thousand powerful demon warriors will be teleported directly to the center of Crow Realm by her, and then spread like cancer cells throughout the Crow Realm;
Although she currently lacks a physical body, if Lady Mist wants to harm her demon army, she is confident that she can still defeat them.
And because the distance is too far, even if Luohan wants to rush back to Crowland from Dilin Port, by the time he arrives, the entire northern border has already been turned into her own territory!
The people of Crow Realm can be corrupted by her into the lowest level of 'fallen'. Although their combat effectiveness is not strong, they are enough to serve as temporary cannon fodder.
When that time comes, she will cooperate with Dario to sacrifice all the living creatures in the northern part of the Lion Realm, and then she can create a body for her that can move freely in the mortal world!
And even if Lohan does arrive at the battlefield before the Raven Realm, she still holds the last trump card in her hand...
No matter how you put it, the time, place, and people are all on my side in this war. It can be said that I have the advantage!
Thinking of the bright future waiting for her, a terrifying smile appeared on Erida's face, and then she comforted Daario:
"There is no need to worry about this goddess. I am absolutely sure of this war. You only need to take care of your troops and do what you should do."
After saying that, Ereda covered the crystal ball with a piece of black cloth, then walked to the balcony of the room and set her sights on the demon army below:
Roar--
Countless demon warriors were holding up demon weapons exuding evil fire, looking at Ereda on the stage with feverish eyes, and kept letting out excited roars from their mouths.
There is not even a trace of skin on their bodies, and their naked flesh and thick enchanted armor are closely integrated, giving them unprecedented defense.
Looking at these children created by her own hands, Erida showed a kind smile on her face, and then slowly raised her palms to suppress the roars of these demons.
As the entire dimensional rift slowly fell into calm, Erida raised the demon scepter in her hand and shouted in an passionate voice:
"Today, we will return to the continent of Pendor, regain everything we have lost, and sprinkle our demon blood to our heart's content!
Today, the blood of mankind will stain the entire earth red, and the soul will mold the body of my heart. Let us march towards Pendor without leaving any one alive!
Let’s start the war!”
Roar!
Encouraged by Erida, all the demon warriors fell into unprecedented madness. Even the underworld war horses under their crotches kept spitting out green flames and danced their hooves.
Carrara——
As the scepter in Erida's hand continued to emit a strange light, a purple portal was tearing apart the dimensional cracks, revealing the snow-white land on the opposite side.
And on that piece of snow, an unlucky woodcutter was holding the woodcutting ax in his hand blankly, looking at the demon army covering the entire dimensional rift with fear.
There is no doubt that it is Pandor!
"Go, my children, use your sharp blades and iron hooves to take back everything that should belong to me!"
Roar--
Following Erida's order, tens of thousands of demons immediately began to swarm towards the portal, waving their weapons and flying towards the poor woodcutter.
"No... don't come over here!"
Seeing those ferocious-looking demons rushing towards him, the woodcutter waved the ax in his hand desperately, as if this behavior could bring him a little bit of unwarranted courage.
If the woodcutter's opponent is just a wild wolf, he may be really shocked by the woodcutter's courage to face death and consider whether he needs to retreat.
It's a pity that what he faced was an army of tens of thousands of demons!
Seeing that the woodcutter was chopped into a puddle of flesh in an instant, Erida stretched out her hand and took his sweet soul filled with despair into her body, then smiled and murmured:
"Humanity will not see the dawn of a new world..."
Time has been on her side, and now as long as Lady Mist or Lohan appears, she can use her trump card to directly eliminate one of them.
Through the portal, Ereda could already feel a powerful divine power approaching her. It was obviously the power of the Lady of the Mist that was monitoring her.
Come on, Radelia, let's see who is the real master of Pendor!
At this time, Erida, who was full of confidence, did not notice that in the clouds directly above her portal, a figure that was constantly flapping its holy wings was hidden in it.
The light mist was like a thin veil, covering all the aura of this figure, so that even Ereda could not clearly see the position of this figure.
It was Rohan who was hiding in the sky above Crow Realm in advance!
"I didn't expect that you really guessed it right. This demon goddess really made Crowland the target of a sneak attack. It seems that everything is as planned?"
Hearing Lady Misty's praise in his ears, Rohan couldn't help but reveal a proud smile, but then he still raised the [Gwendalion Blade] in his hand and said humbly:
"It's also thanks to Daario's sudden order that the Inquisition return to the border of Ravenland, that I was able to respond to the demonic invasion immediately."
"Dario, is that your lieutenant who has never received my blessing... There is no way, his loyalty to you is even higher than his piety to me, my blessing is of no use at all."
After recalling Dario's name, Ladelia couldn't help but feel a headache and touched the veil on her face. It was obviously the first time she encountered such a situation.
After all, Daario's behavior is equivalent to an Elthuan elf not believing in the Eternal King Asuryan, but instead taking the Phoenix King as the object of his faith.
Anyway, this behavior is really weird, isn’t it?!
"I heard that he removed my statue from the castle and built a new statue of you instead. Is there anything you want to say?"
Hearing Ms. Misty's teasing voice, Rohan's hands clenching the hilt of the sword couldn't help but hesitate, and then he asked with some uncertainty:
"Madam, Dario built my statue without permission. You won't be angry if you find out about it, right?"
"Me? Why should I be angry? As long as you can use the power you gain to fight against the evil Chaos, then it will be too late for me to be happy."
To be continued...
