The first thousand two hundred and ninety-eight chapters shave and then pick up the chief wizard
In the boundless forest kingdom, a true god with giant antlers on his head, wearing an animal skin cloak, and holding a big bow and a spear is hunting in his kingdom. His body moves in the giant forest hundreds of meters or even higher.
Standing, carefully looking for his prey.
He has a fearless attitude towards the terrors outside his own kingdom that are as dense as stars. He responds with mocking disdain to the terrible echoes in the subspace and the minions of the dog god, the eagle god, the crow god, and the snake god.
Just want to enjoy their own hunting and get their own prey, his divine body is better than any
He is taller than any human god, his crown of god-king is more gorgeous and magnificent than any human god, his power and knowledge are much more powerful and long-lasting than his young ally Charlemagne, his strength and age are greater than those of his young ally Charlemagne.
His brother, the Empire's Winter God, the White Wolf God Ulric, is even more ancient.
He never likes to hide himself in robes and behind the scenes like Moore, the god of death. He doesn't like to use scales to measure all values like the goddess of justice, Valena.
She labors and sheds tears, and unlike Mirmedia, the goddess of war, she advocates defeating opponents through advanced knowledge and sophisticated tactics.
He is Tal, the god-king of the human pantheon, the god of nature, the object of faith of all druids and a large number of human believers.
At this moment, Tarr is hunting. Of course, the human god king knows what is happening in the mortal world, but Tarr is indifferent to the life and death of mortals. First of all, this is not the scope of his priesthood. Charlemagne, Ulric, Valena, and Mir
Media and even the missing Thalia are considered to be the gods who should solve the problem.
Secondly, Tarr has always adhered to the guiding ideology of "natural selection and survival of the fittest". For the God of Nature, the existence of countless animals, plants and humans in the mortal world should be allowed to decide for themselves which ones are suitable and strong.
Just stay, those who are unsuitable or not strong enough will be eliminated, and there will be no mating.
The right and the right to have offspring are very reasonable and in line with the laws of nature. Taal always believes that there is no need for him to intervene, so let the gods return to gods and the mortals return to mortals! After chaos, those weak beings will
be eliminated, while the strong will once again prosper in their land.
Therefore, Tal fought against the Four Gods of Chaos in the first God War of Chaos Invasion, until the resurrected Asuryan flew down from his Phoenix Throne and directly attacked the Four Gods of Chaos, forcing the Four Gods of Chaos to retreat. After that, the human god king
He rarely participates in mortal disputes. He rarely appears, except for the situation similar to the grassroots Marshal Bertrand of Britannia who was killed by a group of people.
Apart from being displeased by being squeezed by the Holy Grail Knight, Taal will only manifest himself when Chaos beasts wreak havoc in the forest on a large scale and when there is a large-scale hunt. Any Taal believer must dedicate part of the hunting proceeds to nature.
Lord, for example, after Bertrand hunted a deer, he would definitely offer the deer's heart or a front leg to Tarr.
Therefore, Tal continued to hunt with peace of mind and waited for Charlemagne, Ulric, and Myrmidia to take action. He never liked humans that much. In his opinion, he gave humans a lot, but humans used war.
Repay Him with internal strife, destruction of nature and surrender to Chaos.
But it seems different today.
Just when the three Groat brothers opened the clay pots and spread Nurgle's plague to the old world, Tarr also discovered that a huge plague storm had descended on his own kingdom, and the roaring hurricane destroyed the bright spring sky.
Dyed yellow and sickly pale, the forest that had been exposed to the storm began to wither, rot, and mutate on a large scale. The trees would become sick and twist into strange tendrils.
Tal soon became angry because of this scene. He slightly confirmed the center of the storm. The human god king was surprised to find that the barriers to his kingdom had begun to be broken. The lord of nature was like returning home from hunting and found his own home.
He is still angry after the door lock is picked. He does not care about the fate of mankind but regards the world's nature as part of himself. Nothing can arouse his anger more than the decay of the simple natural paradise.
The Lord of Nature rushed through the forest and stream quickly, and every step he took made the earth tremble. Soon, Tal found a giant dead fat man with bloated body and stench appearing in the center of his divine kingdom. He grinned from ear to ear.
The big mouth on the side is full of laughter, and billions of Nurglings are singing around Him:
"The Nurgle fruit is on the Nurgle tree. You and I are playing games under the Nurgle tree in front of Father Nurgle. There is so much joy!"
"Get out of my sky, you fat bastard!" Tal immediately recognized the speed in front of him. He roared, and the antlers crown on his head erupted with thousands of lightnings, coming from all directions with absolute force.
Attacking the Fat Man from an undefendable angle: "I will let you taste failure again, you impostor."
"I am the real God of Nature, and you are the imposter." A thunderous reply came from the distance, and the dead fat man laughed, and he let the lightning go.
When it hit him, this level of attack only caused a little bit of black smoke to appear on the surface of his body. Feeling Taar's power, the Dead Fat Man laughed wildly and said: "Hey, isn't this a human being, the King of Gods?
?I haven’t seen you for thousands of years, why are you so angry?"
"Gun!" Tal roared, and he immediately bent his bow and drew his arrow, and the violent, savage and primitive power of the Lord of Nature gathered together.
"This is subspace! It's you who should get out, right?" Nurgle, the Fat Man, said with a smile.
"???" The itching and pain coming from his body distracted Tal. The Lord of Nature suddenly discovered the crawling poison ivy, thick moss, mutated spots, and large pox growing along the edges.
It spread along his body, extending from his feet to his calves.
"No, this is impossible, I am the human god king, you can't do it, I order you to stop, stop immediately!" Tal reprimanded sharply, and the Lord of Nature immediately burned his own divine fire, trying to save the entangled
His own filth was burned away, and He stretched out his hands to wrap around his body, trying to get rid of this disease.
"Kukukuku~" Nurgle let out a low, rumbling laugh, resounding throughout the world like an approaching storm. The loving father recited a spell, and the chaotic runes named "Boruto" boomed in the nature.
On the Lord.
It can never be ignited again.
Taal's divine fire was extinguished very quickly, and his body began to be covered with poison ivy, moss, and black warts.
The invincible human god-king fell.
.........I am the dividing line where the invincible Tal fell......
Bad news reached the court in Britannia one after another.
Faced with the overwhelming plague and Nurgle carpet, Marshal Kalad tried no means to fight against it. He and Zhukov were forced to abandon the border castle directly after losing more than 600 people, and were attacked by living plague and Nurgle along the way.
The spreading rotten forest pursued them for nearly a hundred kilometers. After a few days, almost all the Brittanian troops despaired of the scene before them.
If not for the fact that after retreating 100 kilometers, the living natural disaster plague finally stopped in front of a lake fairy statue on the edge of the Kurona Plain, Kalad even suspected that the more than 10,000 people under his command would have been directly lost and chaotic.
The courage to fight.
"Thank you, my lady!" Calard led the knights and soldiers to kneel in front of the statue of the Lady of the Lake. This statue is now glowing with dazzling light, burning the approaching poisonous vines, and will destroy the retreating Brittany.
Runner to the rescue.
Everyone was a little shocked.
"My marshal?" Zhukov has been fighting Chaos for 10 years. He recovered faster than others, but he was also frightened and speechless by the sight in front of him. He couldn't believe they were defeated by Chaos like this.
?Chaos didn't even send out a single soldier.
"We must figure out what's going on. What's going on in this world?" Kalad looked at Marienburg's letter asking for help and the Marienburg courier who was still at a loss and still anxious, and made a decisive decision: "
Under the current situation of unknown enemy situation, it is better to retreat temporarily, leaving a small number of soldiers to guard the statue and establish a new stronghold. We will immediately go to the Palace of Fontainebleau and report the news here to His Majesty!"
"Just like this, we did nothing and gave up all 100 kilometers of land to Chaos?" Zhukov was obviously unwilling to accept this result.
"Don't fight unprepared battles and don't take unnecessary risks." Kalad glanced at the army behind him and said solemnly: "Soldiers have families and children. We can't let their blood be shed in vain!"
"……yes."
Kalad and Zhukov mounted their fast horses and prepared to rush to Curona to report the matter to Regent Lawn, and then to Ryan and Sulia at the Palace of Fontainebleau.
Bad news comes one after another.
The four independent free cities of the empire, Talabheim, known as the Eye of the Forest, fell.
As a legendary city in the history of the empire, it can even be said to be one of the earliest birthplaces of human barbarian tribes after the demise of the human wizard empire. Talabheim is famous all over the world for its unique geographical conditions. The city is located in the center of the great forest.
in a huge naturally formed crater. The crater around this crater is far higher than the surrounding forest trees, and the locals built walls and fortresses on it, making it an insurmountable fortification.
Inside the crater is a different world. There is flat fertile land and a group of rivers composed of giant lakes. People farm here and in the surrounding areas outside the city and gain a lot of harvest.
If you want to enter the Taraberheim Ring Volcano and attack this great city, you must first capture a city in the northwest of the Ring Volcano - Taragard. This city guards the only access - the Wizard's Road. It has always been
This is the only way to enter the ring volcano. Now Talagaad is closed, forbidden, and even magically sealed to resist external terrorist forces in the forest.
As the storm of disorder rages, the people of Talabheim are content with their small existence.
The fact is that Taragarde's army is unable to fight against the most violent and dangerous of the three Nurgle armies that came - the three brothers of the Maggot Riders, because most of Tarabeheim's troops have been mobilized before.
Going to the northern front line, most of the remaining troops were provincial troops and a small number of noble private troops.
However, the fierce attacks by the three brothers of the Maggot Cavalry for days were unable to break through the Empire's defenders, because there seemed to be some unique power guarding the city. The Nurgle Demon and those Chaos Warriors, the Yankees suffered huge casualties during the attack.
, out of 60,000 people, only less than 30,000 people were defeated and retreated to the Talabek Forest.
Oghotus, King of Maggots - The demon vomiting feared the wrath and punishment of their loving father. When they tried to regroup their army after their failure, they received an unexpected reinforcement. Epidemius, the scribe of Nurgle, led an army.
More than 20,000 people, including ten legions of summoned nearly 10,000 Nurgle demons, joined their ranks.
Before departure, the clay pot carrying one of the deadly plagues was thrown into the fire. The yellow-green gas formed a huge thunderstorm in the sky of Talabheim, and the torrential rain and flood carrying the deadly plague descended on the sky.
Tara Behem, this great city was flooded by the plague waters.
It was at this moment that Tal, the Lord of Nature, fell in front of Nurgle, the mysterious power guarding Talabheim disappeared, and the Chaos army could finally move forward unimpeded.
The Imperial General and Commander of Talabheim City Defense, Ribon Glais, led 10 Imperial legions (1,000 people per regiment) and 23 companies (120-150 people per company) to make the final resistance. The defenders once relied on
With the steam tank prototype "Milagliano" dedicated to Talabheim, he defeated countless attacks by Nurgle's army.
The three brothers of the Maggot Riders and the Nurgle Clerk were also helpless against the power of the steam tank prototype. They took turns taking turns to retreat, and the Chaos army was once forced to the edge of retreat.
But the power of steam tanks has its limits.
With the long-term battle, the Miragliano's steam engine began to approach the overload limit, and the excessive temperature made the steam boiler very unstable.
This gave the Nurgle army an opportunity. Under the instructions of the Nurgle Secretary, a Nurgling seized the opportunity and stuffed its fat head into the barrel of the steam cannon.
With the next burst of steam cannon fire, the Miragliano's hull and its power boilers shattered into smithereens in a thunderous explosion that destroyed a nearby city block and destroyed an entire Nurgle Daemon.
Legion, but it also killed the Imperial Army, which was relying on the power of steam tanks for final resistance. The commander of the city defense was penetrated by a broken piece of iron and embedded in his throat, and died on the spot.
With the fall of the garrison officer, the garrison of Talabheim finally collapsed, and they joined the ranks of refugees and fled westward toward Braunschweig.
The destruction of another city made the imperial court like an ant on a hot pot. As usual, the left-behind bureaucrats still tried their best to block the news that Marienburg and Talabheim had fallen, telling the civilians that this was "fake news", telling the civilians that this was "fake news".
Chaos invasion is preventable and controllable for everyone, so don’t be nervous, Charlemagne will protect the empire.
And then finally some good news came.
The imperial messenger found Greg Mattak, the chief wizard of the imperial royal family, who trusted him in the forest near Reikvald.
The newly appointed royal chief grand wizard was shocked by the current situation in the empire. After receiving the news from the messenger, Mattak got a perfect surprise - not only was he appointed as the royal chief grand wizard, but the imperial court also announced
Mattak will receive a considerable degree of power. He will have the right to make decisions and approve everything in the empire, and to call on all the resources that the empire can still call upon. After both the emperor and Marshal Rick disappeared, the chief royal wizard
It is the only life-saving straw for the imperial court.
This is indeed an unparalleled surprise, and if it were any time normally, Matak would be happy to accept it, because no great wizard can refuse the status and glory of the position of chief royal wizard, as well as the power to allocate countless resources throughout the empire.
But the situation is different now. Mattak knows very well that if he goes back at this time, the challenges he will face will be difficult and the situation will be terrifying.
But Mattak accepted it anyway.
The building will collapse and it will be difficult to support it alone.
Greg Mattak is willing to be the only tree.
Because this is his country and everything he cherishes and cares about is here.
In order to prevent his greasy and dirty appearance, his robes covered with dust, dirt, feces and oil from appearing in the noble imperial court, Matak endured the discomfort and put on a gorgeous robe that was 80% new.
In his discomfort, he messed himself up with various kinds of grease, meat foam and branches. The flea's beard was slightly trimmed, and he even reluctantly took a bath to make himself smell less foul.
After doing some hygiene, Mattak followed the messenger and rushed towards Brunswick.
Heaviness, joy, tension and hesitation did not accompany the new royal chief wizard for too long. On the outskirts of Brunswick, he did not see the familiar Brunswick patrols and solid fortifications, but saw five
Wan, black clothes and black armor kill
Angry and angry, holding the banner of "Fengtian Jingnan" and the Nuer black-backed Libra gold lion flag, the Nuer elite army was advancing towards Braunschweig. These soldiers shouted Frederick, Emmanuel
Moving forward proudly with Li's name and slogan.
It's the Nuer army, and Nuer also has an organized army!
This was Mattak's first reaction.
There is still hope!
Why are the Nuer people holding the banner of "Fengtian Jingnan" and bringing so many field troops to the capital?! Don't they know that the main field armies of the provinces above the designated size are not allowed to enter the capital without the emperor's order?
