Chapter 97: I am a person who swims against the current
ˆ
The Kingdom of Star Luo annexed the Kingdom of Volcano, and the former country of the Huosen family became a principality territory of the Kingdom of Star Luo.
However, their next target was not the Samo Kingdom, which was the most difficult and most powerful to conquer, but the Seler family among the four royal blood families.
The severely damaged Samo Kingdom has just retreated from the Stone Forest City and is licking the wounds left by the previous war with the Star Luo Kingdom. Even because it has lost its most important ally, the entire Samo Kingdom is afraid of the Star Luo Kingdom's counterattack and revenge.
.
The Queen decided to seize the Kingdom of Sailer before they could react.
In the palace, all the subjects looked at the queen.
Their eyes showed desire and expectation.
Queen Xingluo was on the throne and followed the gazes of her subjects and looked at everyone present.
At this moment, everyone has reached a consensus.
“Hundreds of years.”
“The families of Samo, Hossen, and Sele were once loyal to the Star Queen and the Silon family, but due to greed and betrayal, they divided the kingdom of Xinsai into separate kingdoms.”
“People have forgotten the former kingdom of Hinsai and the glory of the House of Silon.”
She raised the Xiinsai scepter high in her hand and issued her order, conveying the king's will and power to every corner of the star.
"it's time to."
“Let the kingdom of Hinsa return under the throne of the house of Silon.”
Everyone cheered, and the people of the Silon family were even moved to tears.
The army is gathering, and the entire Star Luo Kingdom is mobilizing.
The territorial nobles gathered one by one with their own soldiers and weapons, and the smoke of war rose on the border.
However, halfway through the march.
They were attacked and encountered some twists and turns.
The Desert Worms of the Samo family suddenly appeared on the way, and they stopped the Xingluo Kingdom's army at all costs. You can know how panicked and fearful the Samo family was.
After a brutal battle, the Queen of Stars finally arrived at the border of the Kingdom of Sailer.
This small and weak kingdom, torn between the three kingdoms, finally faced a choice it could not avoid.
means to surrender.
Or perish.
the other side.
Henir, the Grand Duke of Volcano, immediately responded to the call of Queen Star Luo and used all the power he could use in the Principality of Volcano.
Especially those lords who are ready to make a move and are restless.
Henir recruited them all this time to join the war against the Kingdom of Sere.
He plans to use this war to completely organize the forces within the Volcano Kingdom, completely control the power, and suppress the voices that oppose him.
Queen Star Luo looked at the army brought by Henir and the earth-burrowing demonic insects.
She was very pleased and thought that she had not made a mistake.
“Grand Duke Henir, you are very loyal.”
Henir was not overjoyed by the Queen's praise. He maintained his calm demeanor: "As long as it is Her Majesty's will, Henir is willing to give everything he has."
“Because this is the oath Henir swore to the gods.”
Henir found that the Star Luo Kingdom’s army was damaged, especially the giant sky beasts with horrific bite marks on their bodies. He immediately asked Her Majesty the Queen what happened?
“On the way, the desert worms from the Samo Kingdom ambushed our army halfway, and I have repulsed them.”
“But they have already reacted. I estimate that the Kingdom of Samo is quickly gathering troops to rescue the Kingdom of Sailer.”
“But it’s impossible for the Samo Kingdom’s army to come over now, and it’s too late.”
“Their purpose is most likely to attack us directly.”
The Kingdom of Samo and the Kingdom of Seler are just across the Kingdom of Star Luo. The Queen of Star Luo had made preparations before coming and left the Ruch Troll Death Star in the Holy Lake.
If the Samo Kingdom cannot catch up, it is very likely that the Stone Forest City will directly attack the City of Servants of God.
The Death Star is her remaining reserve force.
Henir bowed respectfully and praised the queen for her wisdom.
He raised his head and suddenly saw that the Ruch mark of the sky beast on Queen Xingluo's forehead had not faded, but had become blurred.
His face was stunned.
“Is the Silon family’s mark of the giant beast in the sky coming to an end so soon?”
For a moment, he thought of the messenger of God, the volcano king, and the giant Luhe monster that finally came back from the dead and ran towards the sea.
The new Grand Duke of the Volcano suddenly felt a throb in his heart, and an idea came to his mind.
His eyes changed instantly.
The eyes became full of all-or-nothing madness, as well as the greed of a wild heart.
Henir immediately lowered his head to cover up, as if he was afraid that Queen Star Luo would see his eyes.
He took the initiative to ask for a fight: "Your Majesty the Queen."
“There are still many people in the kingdom who criticize me. I request that you capture the Siren City, the capital of the Kingdom of Sailer, to prove my loyalty.”
Queen Star Luo comforted Henir, showing that she trusted him very much.
But she immediately nodded and agreed to Henir's request.
Attacking the fortified city of Siren Capital was an extremely difficult task that required a huge price. She had originally intended to leave it to Henir, but was worried that Henir would not do it.
Now that he has taken the initiative to ask for a battle, Queen Star Luo is even more satisfied with Henir.
Henir hunched over, maintaining a humble posture, and walked away backwards.
Queen Xingluo looked at the scepter in her hand and remembered its former owner.
“Queen of the Stars!”
“King Ari.”
“King Jeser, and...King Lederiki.”
She seemed to have seen herself uniting the country of Hinsey again and wearing the crown of King of Hinsey again.
At night, in a small town occupied by the Volcano Principality army and used as a military camp.
Henir, the Grand Duke of the Volcano, summoned his vassals to discuss how to attack the fortified city of the Sea Monster Capital. Naturally, the giant monster Sailer Siren of the Sailer Kingdom had the queen's sky monster to deal with it, but even so, the Sailer family's
The Kraken Priests and the garrisoned soldiers are not easy to deal with either.
Henir also intends to retain his strength. He will use less Earth-Drilling Bugs if he can.
“The Royal Regiment is mainly attacking the deep-water port on the front. If the deep-water port is lost, the Kraken Capital will be unable to defend it. The Seiler family will never give up, so this must be the main battlefield on the front.”
“The Capital of the Kraken is on an island more than ten miles away from the coast, but every evening, after low tide, a road leading to the Capital of the Kraken will appear.”
“This is our opportunity, but the city must have been prepared, we must...”
Henir made a plan, and all the vassals and generals went down to prepare after receiving the order.
The Duke of the Volcano was pacing under the moonlight, hesitating and wandering.
But this hesitation did not last long, and he called his most trusted aide.
“You take two thousand people and prepare yourself outside the deep-water port, waiting for the opportunity to come.”
The staff didn’t know why: “Wait!”
“Grand Duke!”
“What are we waiting for?”
Henir said: "Wait for something to happen in the deep-water port, and I will use magic to tell you what to do."
The Grand Duke of the Volcano did not say what to do, but his closest aides and vassals were worried, as if they sensed that something big was about to happen.
When he took the order to exit, he glanced at Henir.
“Grand Duke!”
“What on earth are you planning?”
Henir looked at the darkness outside without any fear or anxiety, but became more and more relaxed.
He was born to blend into this darkness.
He murmured: "I am one who swims against the current."
“Only those who go upstream can change everything, obtain the impossible, and achieve the impossible.”
