Riverside Town, one of the border towns of the Light Empire, is less than 5 kilometers away from the Quinn River, the natural border between the Light Empire and the Dark Empire. This is also the first place where the Dark Empire invades the Light Empire.
The Quinn River is not only the natural dividing line between the Light Empire and the Dark Empire, but also the natural dividing line between the two countries and the Alliance Empire. The Quinn River has two major origins. One is from the Nightmare Swamp not far from the City of Chaos.
The other one is the Rum River that originated from the Alliance Empire and the Orc Empire, and is now the Quinn River.
The water is dozens of meters deep, all because the glaciers in the upper reaches of the Rum River have melted. The Light Empire did not expect the Dark Empire to launch an attack at this time. You must know that the Quinn River at this time has rapid currents and a large number of water systems.
Monsters are swimming inside, which come from the sea.
Therefore, Hepan Town was caught off guard and fell into the hands of the Dark Empire at the first time. Now Hepan Town is the general headquarters of the Dark Empire in the Light Empire. Now in the general headquarters, everyone is frowning and the atmosphere is very unpleasant.
Ordinary.
"Everyone, tell me, what should we do now? It would be okay if we captured Hulun City, but several high-level knights reinforced by the Holy See of Light have entered Hulun City, and our follow-up troops are trapped on the other side of the river.
." The speaker was a big man wearing bright armor, his name was Sarsis, and he was the commander of the Eastern Legion of the Dark Empire.
"Your Excellency, Legion Commander, there are large groups of water-type monsters swimming in the Quinn River, and the despicable enemies actually poured a lot of blood into the river. There are at least tens of thousands of water-type monsters swimming in the Quinn River now.
, and as time goes by, the number of monsters pouring into the Quinn River is also increasing. Just two hours ago, a squadron of soldiers tried to cross the river, but no one returned." The chief of staff stood next to Sarsis.
Gave you the latest information.
"Can you please ask people from the three major knights to take action to destroy the water monsters?" Cuo Erman, the leader of the heavy armored knights sitting below, suggested.
"No, the three major knights are to deal with the three major knights of the Light Empire. The empire is not ready for a full-scale war with each other." Sarsis shook his head and replied. You must know that both the Dark Empire and the Light Empire have three major knights.
Although the Empire of Light and the Empire of Darkness have been hostile to each other for tens of thousands of years, there have been very few actual all-out wars.
Unfortunately, once the three major knights are dispatched, it means another all-out war. As the strength of the Alliance Empire becomes stronger and stronger, the top leaders of the Light Empire and the Dark Empire will not launch an all-out war. This war is nothing more than
It was a large-scale probing attack by the Dark Holy See. Otherwise, there would not have been no high-ranking members of the Holy See participating in the battle.
"I would like to report to you, sir, since the people of the Bright Empire can lure the water monsters over, can we also use the same method to lure the water monsters away? It won't take long, we just need our army to cross the river."
"At this time, another young staff officer next to Sarsis said tentatively.
"Yes, that's a good idea. What's your name?" Sathis's eyes lit up and he nodded in admiration and asked.
"The younger one is Kusi from the Kesla family. Sir, we can also add a small amount of medicine into the blood to make some water monsters go crazy. As long as the water monsters start killing each other, the subsequent results will be
You know, maybe we can still make a small fortune." Kusi quickly stepped forward and replied.
"Well, but since you came up with this plan, I'll let you implement it. What do you think?" Sarsis was very happy, and the look in Kusi's eyes changed, and he was a little appreciative, so Sarsis said
Give ulecus a chance.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir. I'm still young." Kusi quickly refused. What a joke. He didn't see the cannibalistic look in the Chief of Staff's eyes. You must know that Kusi's family is only a third-rate family in the Dark Empire, and the Chief of Staff
His family is a first-class established noble, so Cus quickly refused.
"Chief of Staff, I will leave this matter to you. I will see the results within two days." Thasis stood up and ordered loudly.
"Yes, Your Excellency, Army Commander." Everyone stood up immediately and bowed in reply.
Also in the same dilemma as the Dark Empire were the high-level officials of the Light Empire. The Pope and several cardinals were all looking sad in the meeting hall of the Holy See of Light. In the Battle of Rock Cliff, the Holy See not only lost a red archbishop, but also
We also lost several paladins and several senior priests. This is extremely rare in the history of the Empire of Light, but it is rare.
See, immediately after Bai Bei's death, Bai Bei's family was ruthlessly purged. There were many charges, and the seat left by Bai Bei was also watched by several cardinals. You must know that the relationship between the cardinal and the red cardinal
There is a huge difference between the red archbishops, but the Pope has not appointed anyone to be the red archbishop, so the atmosphere in the council room is a bit strange.
"You all tell me that people from the Dark Empire have occupied several small towns, and Hulun City is also surrounded by tens of thousands of enemy troops. Once Hulun City is broken, everyone here will leave their own marks in history.
The name is nothing more than an infamy for the ages, tell me what you think?" The Pope of the Holy See of Light seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight, and the Rock Cliff Incident gave a
The Pope of Light dealt the heaviest blow, even the four-winged angels had no choice but to run away. The Pope of Light tore the person in charge of intelligence work into pieces as soon as he got the news. The most important thing now is not the darkness.
The threat from the Holy See is instead the problem of that hateful wanted criminal. Once this wanted criminal gets angry, the Empire of Light will only perish.
"Your Majesty, urgent report from the border!" Just when everyone was silent, a paladin hurried in, knelt on the ground and reported loudly.
"Your Majesty, this morning, the Dark Empire sent nearly 100,000 elite troops to Riverside Town." The paladin reported eagerly.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"How was the River Quinn crossed?"
"Tell me more about it?" The Pope of the Light Empire also changed his expression. One hundred thousand elite soldiers are all the elites of the Eastern Province of the Dark Empire. You must know that the Western Province of the Dark Empire borders the Light Empire, so its combat power is among the highest in the Dark Empire.
first, and
The Western Province of the Holy See of Light originally had a very strong military. However, in order to prevent Black Dragon City, tens of thousands of cavalry were mobilized from the Western Province and stationed in the Eastern Province. In addition, a red archbishop died, so the Holy See of Light now has no military strength.
It's stretched thin.
"Yes. According to reconnaissance, the Dark Empire dumped a large number of corpses hundreds of miles downstream of Riverside Town, both human and animal, as well as the corpses of our empire's subjects. Therefore, the water-type monsters in the Quinn River were destroyed overnight.
They swarmed downstream, and taking this opportunity, the nearly 100,000 elite members of the Dark Empire were able to cross the river safely." This paladin
The scholar could not hide his anger. You must know that a war between the Dark Empire and the Light Empire will not leave a single prisoner, even a civilian. You must know that these two empires are controlled by the Holy See, and the children of the two empires
The people are also believers, which is one of the reasons why the two empires went to war with each other, but no one got any benefits.
"Your Majesty, this matter must be reported to the superiors. You must know that we not only discovered the wanted criminals sent down by the oracle, but also fought against them. Anyway, it is a bit sad to say, and it is also said that the Dark Empire took advantage of the situation. I think the glory of the Lord God will definitely
Take care of us." When everyone heard the news, their expressions changed. You have to know that there are at least tens of thousands of people in several small towns. After this incident, these small towns must
There is no one left, and the most important thing is Hulun City, which is one of the few big cities in the Western Province. Not only are a large number of elite soldiers stationed in it, but also a lot of supplies are stored. The total adds up to enough.
There are as many as 300,000 people. If Hulun City is destroyed, it is estimated that everyone here will be completely destroyed by the divine punishment, because everyone here knows that what the Lord God cares about is the life and death of those civilians.
"That's all we can do, go and make arrangements." The Pope waved his hand and ordered, because now has reached a critical moment. Once 300,000 people are killed, the Pope knows his fate. In the history of the Empire of Light, there was once a
The powerful Pope sacrificed 200,000 people of the empire in exchange for half of the province of the Dark Empire, as well as several
This is a big city. If this continues, the Dark Empire might have perished long ago. But what no one knows is that divine punishment will come in an instant. Everyone above the cardinal will be wiped out in ashes. The one who finally delivers the oracle is "Reckless"
From then on, the senior leaders of the Holy See knew that once a large number of believers died, the top leaders of the Holy See would be doomed.
"Haha, there are really capable people in this dark empire. I thought I was going to take action?" Ryan held a piece of parchment in his hand. On it was the latest battle report of the two empires. The source was of course the Thieves Guild.
"Yes, the Holy See of Light will definitely summon the divine envoy this time." Felix agreed on the side.
"But I don't like the Dark Holy See's massacre of tens of thousands of civilians at once. It seems that I need to warn you." However, Ryan was very unhappy with the message above. The dazzling phrase "massacre" is on this parchment.
above.
"It is precisely because of the massacre that the Lord God of Light sent his envoys down. Otherwise, he would definitely not have sent his envoys down." Niu Niu then said.
Ryan was very curious about this statement, so he asked: "Does it mean that the Lord of Light is not used to this kind of thing?"
"Haha, it's not that I'm not used to it, but it's that when you reach the level above the God King, promotion depends not on your own energy, but on the power of faith." Niu Niu waved her hand and released a double-layered shield, and then explained.
"The power of faith?" Ryan and Felix looked at each other.
"The power of faith is a mysterious power formed by the prayers of ordinary believers. The more sincere the believers are and the greater the number of people, the greater the power of faith, and the ability of the main god who is believed in will be
The bigger it is, once the power of faith decreases, it is not impossible for the main god level to drop to the god king level." Niuniu explained briefly.
"Oh, that means if there is a large-scale death among believers, the Lord God will sense it?" Felix continued to ask.
"Haha, it's not the Lord God who knows. You must know that within the jurisdiction of the Light God Clan, the Lord God is very rare. There are usually only a few. The Lord God will not directly collect the power of faith. Those who receive the power of faith are the gods subordinate to the Lord God.
King, and the god king dedicated the power of faith he received to the main god, and a god king generally
He is only responsible for one plane or several planes, and the death of tens of thousands of people, the power of faith does not fluctuate much, but once hundreds of thousands of people die, the god king can sense that divine punishment is inevitable, and once
If the Holy See in this plane is destroyed, then the God King responsible will definitely be punished." Niu Niu explained in detail.
"That's good, let's wait for the angel to arrive and go to the Holy City of the Empire of Light. We have to entertain the angel properly." When Ryan heard this, he knew that an angel would definitely come this time.
