What happened on the border of Kumai shocked the princes, ministers and King XVII in Thebiles. In the history of the war between the two countries, the Eagle God Empire has never seen such a powerful fighting force. A meeting was held immediately in the palace.
An emergency meeting was held, and when it was learned that the Gripen Empire's army suddenly used an ultimate weapon like Jian Yuetianxia in the war, the Demon Moon Empire felt the seriousness of the problem. The king ordered that the King of the North and those under his control
At the same time that the Frost Knights rushed to the front line to join the frontline troops, there were new mobilization instructions for the troops stationed in various provinces in the Western Territory.
Because of the last rash invasion and truce of the Gripen Kingdom, as well as the Elven Script obtained from the Battle of the Holy Demon, the Seventeenth Generation became very wary of the actions of the Gripen Kingdom in the West. The King of the North, Dutch, and
The transfer of the Frost Knights from the northeastern part of the empire to the Western Capital is one of the measures to strengthen prevention. In addition, Hanard, the second son of the Christian family, has been sent to the Western Region for a long period of time to train the army, and he and three other senior generals serve as commanders.
At the meeting, a minister proposed to send another knight order to the west to increase the elite combat effectiveness. In the Demon Moon Empire, in addition to the knights formed by civilians and locals, there are eight knights who are directly under the king's royal family. Among them, the Red Knights are known to have the strongest combat effectiveness.
The Maple Knights are stationed in the south all year round and are specifically used to target Saint Vicoia, but this unit was not used in the last war.
Among them is the Imperial Holy Moon Knights, whose strength is not weaker than the Red Maple Knights. The team strength is 1,000 people. 500 people are stationed in the eastern suburbs of Anmosidou, and the other 500 are stationed in the imperial capital. The teams in the two places alternately exchange command rights.
It was in the hands of Queen Athena. So it was immediately decided that the 500 Holy Moon Knights stationed on the outskirts of the Western Capital would participate in the war against the West.
While the Demon Moon Empire in the north was making intensive arrangements, the western part of Saint Bikoya was also attacked by the expeditionary force led by Fried. Saint Bikoya had already been on guard due to Memphela's previous reminder, and the border troops were still there before the enemy.
The intelligence was received before the attack was launched, and an active defense was immediately launched. At this point, the war between the Creation Royal Power and the invasion of the Holy and Demonic Kingdoms officially began.
…
On April 30, 7407 in the Holy Garden Calendar, it only took Charles Tyson's airship team a few days to find the tomb of Princess Aster, the fifth princess of Glonus, after leaving the tomb of the Polar Princess.
, after a quick excavation there, the group took an airship to the location of the last cemetery known to Ruola. What made Alice even more happy was that her master Bing Zhixie had regained contact with her not long ago.
And learned that they were on their way here.
This is a Gobi desert. In addition to dry soil, the ground also contains sparse grass that has not yet died. The cracked ground extends into intricate canyons. It is said that during the rainy season, rivers will briefly form in the canyons here, and the place is also temporarily
It will become an oasis.
This place is already a very deep desert area, with very long distances to the south, north, east and west. It is the edge of the harshest environment in the Sea of Death desert. The wind and sand here are constant all year round, and the daytime temperature is
From late spring onwards, the temperature is often over 70 degrees, making it very difficult to hike here, and the risk of taking an airship is equally high.
The people on the boat got down and anchored the boat, and the others slowly came out of the cabin. As soon as the young women came into contact with the sun outside, they felt that their skin was dry and they hurriedly picked up the heated skin.
Drink from the water bag.
Alice licked her dry lips. Although she was wearing shoes, her feet stepped on the sand, and the shoes still felt stuffy and hot. She tightened the string of her sun-protective straw hat to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.
He was covered with a cloak made of blankets, and a simple crystal slot was made under the cloak. The cryolite in the slot weakly exudes a hint of coolness, which can slow down the loss of water in the body.
It's not too hot either.
The men's skin was tanned by the sun, and the sweat was evaporated without being able to flow out. Almost everyone put on a large cloak. They came to the edge of the cracked canyon to take a look, and then split up to search along the edge of the canyon.
The cemetery that Ruola guessed is roughly here, and the rift valley here is obviously a good place to build a mausoleum. There should not even be only one mausoleum here, but there may be a group of tombs, because some of them have heard of it in the past
About the existence of these rift valleys.
Sure enough, there is a tomb here, and without looking too carefully, everyone soon found an ancient tomb on the gorge wall. The stone door of the ancient tomb had already been opened, and there were many fragments of clay pots and tiles scattered in front of the tomb door.
The ancient patterns and characters engraved on the two sides have been weathered and cannot be distinguished, and it is impossible to tell which country, dynasty and era they came from.
Ticket inspector Payton, swimmer Monk, Flat Nose, Cannabis Spot and others went inside the tomb first and walked around. After digging the ancient tomb several times before, they had become much more courageous and experienced. Going in was just a matter of time.
Twenty minutes later when they came out, most of the people in the tomb had been evacuated. What was left behind was worthless to them and had long since rotted and turned into dust.
However, Taylor and other ancient culture enthusiasts went into the tomb to investigate again. They found two coins, one gold and one silver, in the dust on the tomb surface, which were probably dropped by the tomb robbers during the transportation. They looked at the ancient
The decorative text on the coin confirms that the text on the coin is the text of an ancient desert country called the Kingdom of Dusk Sand. This Kingdom of Dusk Sand was destroyed in the ancient Phoenician conquest. Judging from the size of the tomb, it should be
The tomb of a certain king of the Kingdom of Dusk Sand.
In the evening, the scorching temperature dropped, and they found a suitable area in the canyon for the airship to park, and moved the airship down.
Everyone raised a bonfire and cooked porridge. They threw the dried meat strips into the pot and cooked them together. People who were familiar with each other chatted with each other. Cannabis Spot sat with the boss, Charles Juya, and he dug out a piece of meat from his nostrils.
The big booger bounced into the fire, and everyone was talking about the customs and strange things of this place. Taylor and others even talked about some stories about the Kingdom of Dusk Sand.
It is said that during the period of the last king of the Kingdom of Musha, which was also the early period of the rule of Phoecanian Glonas, the war between the countries in the central desert area entered a period of intense intensity. In addition to the Kingdom of Phoenicians and the Kingdom of Musha, there were three more powerful ones.
The leaders of these five countries were known as the Five Holy Kings at the time. During that period, this place was extremely prosperous. Because of the wars and disputes between each other, a large number of talents from all walks of life emerged in each country, and the level of civilization here also increased.
Reached an unprecedented height.
Later, with the continuous rise of Phoenicia, the other four countries gradually declined. In order to resist the invasion of Phoenicia, large and small countries, including the Kingdom of Musha, formed an alliance. However, the alliance eventually ended in hatred between each other. In the end, these four countries
Countries were successively destroyed by Phocanae, and his reputation reached its peak when Glonus destroyed the other four holy kings. He brought the kings of the four countries to a square with tens of thousands of people and beheaded them in public, and ordered the best craftsmen at that time to
Four face-covered crowns were cast from the faces of these four kings, and these four crowns were placed under his throne as his greatest trophies, so that all pilgrims could feel his majesty.
It is said that each of these four crowns was a rare treasure and was buried with him in the tomb after his death. However, as time goes by, I don't know how true this story is.
Some people have heard the story of the Five Holy Kings and the Sand Pirates, but I don’t know if the Four Holy Crowns are such a thing. He drank a bowl of meat porridge and said: "It’s hard to believe the ancient stories, but I used to
I heard from other sand bandits that this place is haunted."
"Have sand thieves come here in recent years?" Taylor was a little surprised. Qiu Ya had never heard of this before and asked, "Tell me about this. What's going on?"
Maris Spot realized that he was suddenly being taken seriously, and he felt a little proud. He put down his bowl and said, "I don't know if it's true or not. But I heard this from a friend who was traveling in the Northland Oasis. He said that he and his friend once went far in the desert.
On the way, he met a businessman who was killed and separated in the desert. The businessman told him that his caravan lost its way in the desert due to sandstorms and came to a rift valley that looked like an ugly scar. In the rift valley, they
Several tombs that had been stolen were discovered, and at night many white-light, floating things like ghosts would appear in the rift to attack them. Later, the businessman desperately escaped from that place, but the rest of his caravan
He was not so lucky. After my friend brought him back to the oasis, he asked him to draw a general direction map of the Rift Valley based on his memory. Because of the ancient tombs, my friend wanted to try his luck. But after several times, he followed the instructions of the businessman.
He drew a map to find that place, but all failed. In the end, he thought that the businessman had deceived him, just to ask him to take him out of a dangerous situation. Later he told me this story. Just now I thought, hey
, isn’t this exactly like the situation my friend described? Is this what the businessman was talking about?”
"Okay." Qiu Ya slapped Big Spot on the back with a carefree face: "I have never heard you say this. When did you have such a friend? What is his name? Do I recognize him?"
Hemoban rubbed his burning back and smiled awkwardly: "You definitely don't know my friend, he..." Before he could finish speaking, Shakhan suddenly stretched out his hand to stop everyone from making any noise, and looked around. At this time, everyone discovered
, I don’t know when white bright spots appeared at the far end of the rift valley. The bright spots seemed to be moving slowly in the air, gradually becoming more and more, and getting closer and closer...
