Section 4 The Conspiracy of Semetis

"Hudhaka urgent!" a soldier burst into the palace like a whirlwind, rolling down in front of the palace.

"How's it going?" both Neeland and Bernard looked at him eagerly.

"Marshal Mircy has asked for strong reinforcements! The walls north of the fortress have been destroyed, and the Holy Light Empire may storm the city at any time. The soldier handed a briefing to Neeland.

"The Holy Light Empire has surrounded Hudhaka!" Nilander was the first to be shocked, they didn't know this information before. Soon all the ministers reacted, and most of the second line of defense had fallen.

"The strength of the enemy is unexpected...... It's very different from what it used to be. "The more Nilander looked at his face, the worse his face became, and both hands trembled slightly. "The situation in Hudhaka is now precarious, and if the commander of the opposing side is willing to lose a certain number of troops, he can occupy Hudhaka at any time. ”

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, how many troops has been dispatched?" Berner asked. There are a large number of masters gathered in Dhaka City now, how can they be so easily frightened by the enemy?

"Two fourth-order angels, 200 level 9 masters, and 50,000 regular soldiers!" A complicated look flashed in Niland's eyes.

"This strength should be within what we can bear. Bernard asked, puzzled.

"If it's the former Holy Light Empire army...... That's true. Neeland smiled wryly. He said: "Now in addition to their bishops, paladins and ascetics can also form strange formations, so those 200 level 9 masters alone can compete with our more than 300 level 9 warriors and magicians." ”

"The two angels were not involved in the attack at all, but were playing the role of protecting the army. In just three days, our side has suffered 40 casualties of level 9 masters, and the other side is ...... The losses of the regular soldiers were very small. As soon as Nilander's words came out, His Highness exclaimed, how is this possible!

300 level 9 masters, even if you concentrate on attacking in one place, you can kill a few enemies, how can you have so many casualties that the masters haven't even touched the opponent's 'hair'. Could it be that angels are so strong in defense?

"It seems that the other party wants to take out Hudhaka without losing strength!" Berner came to this conclusion after a short analysis.

"I think so...... For although they surrounded Hudhaka, they did not place their forces in the south, and they thought that the army in the city should retreat, so that they could take advantage of the situation and pursue them! ”

"But if it continues to be consumed like this, it won't last too long. We must immediately find a way to contain the fourth-order angels of the other party. "Bernard's words are very reasonable, the reason is that the other party has two more fourth-order angels, otherwise, no matter how powerful those 200 level 9 masters are, it is impossible to easily deal with the 300 level 9 masters of the Free Empire.

"Lord Grom has already arrived in the Imperial Capital from Mount Auckland, and at the same time, I have gathered all the masters of the battle list who have learned of their whereabouts, and I believe that I can appoint them to set off in the next two days. Speaking of which, Nilander showed a relaxed demeanor.

"With Lord Grom's leadership, I believe that dealing with two fourth-order angels will definitely not be a problem. "Although Grom has not been promoted for a long time, after all, he has really relied on his own strength to advance, and he is of course stronger than the fourth-order angel who relies on external forces. And with the assistance of dozens of battle ranking masters, I believe that the situation will be reversed soon.

"They left the south side to prepare for our soldiers to escape, but they didn't know that they also left us a convenient passage for reinforcements!" "Although the masters of the battle list can fly in the air, the masters of the other side may not be able to intercept in the air, and now there are no troops stationed in the south, but it is convenient for the reinforced battle list masters to enter the city and join the people in the city.

"As things stand, Hudhaka will support for two more days...... There should still be no problem. "Given the conservative tactics of the Holy Light Empire, the increase in Hudhaka's casualties is also very slow.

......

"I've been entangled for so many days...... The other party must have thought that we only have two fourth-order angels available!" Semetis showed a 'treacherous' smile on his face: "This cognitive error will lead to the greatest loss of the Free Empire!"

"What is the king going to do?" Ssol, who had been with him for a long time, soon understood that he was about to make a move.

"Presumably, the Free Empire must now think that the south side is the gap I deliberately left behind, just to 'force' the troops in the city to escape. But they would never have imagined that this was the cemetery I had specially prepared for the masters of the Free Empire......" With a hint of bloodthirsty light flashing in his eyes, Semetis snorted softly: "Today, the spies from the south came to report that a team of griffin knights was sent to the city of Hudhaka, and the direction of travel was where the capital of the Free Empire was located. ”

"Are they going to bring reinforcements?" Thor reacted very quickly, and quickly guessed the result. These days, the army of the Holy Light Empire has slowly been depleted with Hudhaka, which has reduced the number of level 9 masters who can fight in Hudhaka City a lot. If they don't give up, they will inevitably ask the imperial capital for help.

"Yes, I've bought the Free Empire so long...... Presumably, this reinforcement must be extraordinary. After all, if there is no way to resist the fourth-order angels, the battle of the Free Empire will not have to be fought!" Semetis curled the corners of his mouth, looking like he had a 'chest'.

"The most powerful battle list master in his empire can't compete with our angels, unless the Holy Son ...... him" Ssol's face showed a trace of melancholy, his feelings for this former Holy Son were obviously a little complicated.

"Hopefully he won't show up...... Otherwise, I can't be soft!" Semetis hesitated for a while, and then said with a complicated expression.

"Don't underestimate the masters of the Free Empire, if you are not sure, their emperor will not send them to death...... Taking advantage of the enemy's unclear strength to wipe out all possible threats is the reason why I have never captured Hudhaka!" Semetis finally unraveled the mystery.

"Enemy reinforcements may arrive in two days, what should we do now?"

"Tomorrow everything will be business as usual during the day, and at night, it will only be ......" A major 'shady' plot against the reinforcements of the Free Empire is about to begin.

............

"Lord Grom, does the other party really have a fourth-order angel who has reached the same strength as you?" A group of 26 battle ranking masters flew rapidly in the sky, heading in the direction of Hudhaka, and asked Basba.

"According to the information provided to us by His Majesty, this fourth-order angel is a certain source of holy power given by the God of Light, and the so-called fourth-order power is contained in this source of holy power. After all, it is not the power of the person who transforms into an angel himself, no matter how strong this holy power is, it is impossible for him to fully exert its power. Grom replied dismissively. He relied on his own strength to rise to the fourth order, and his comprehension of strength was far greater than that of those who used external forces.

"So, Lord Grom, do you think you can deal with two fourth-order angels?" asked a little worriedly. If Grom can only deal with one angel, then the other angel may have to rely on them.

"Based on their performance in joining forces to break through Pudos' gate, their individual strength should be slightly lower than mine. Grom pondered for a while, and then said: "One-on-one, the other party should be able to barely contain the old man, one-on-two, the old man can barely contain them." ”

Everyone present quickly understood. When the strength reaches the level of the fourth order, unless the gap is huge, it is difficult to distinguish the winner at once. Although Grom is talented, the time to break through is too short after all, and he can only be regarded as a beginner in the fourth order. It's very difficult to defeat an angel in one fell swoop.

"So...... It's easy to do!" "Since Grom can contain the two angels, the Free Empire, which has the numerical advantage of a level 9 master, will definitely be able to pose an effective threat to the forces of the Holy Light Empire. As long as Hudhaka is held, there will be a steady stream of reinforcements from the later empire, and the situation will be reversed.

"Hmph! With just two birdmen, they also want to invade the territory of my free empire! The other party seems to look down on people too much...... Harry Boy hasn't broken through, and my hands have been itching for a long time!" Grom snorted.

The Holy Light Empire didn't know that the Free Empire had already produced genuine fourth-order warriors, and the Free Empire didn't know how many fourth-order winged angels the Holy Light Empire had. Both sides are confident in the upcoming battle, and the decisive factor in this battle is who has the deepest hidden strength......

"In about an hour, we should be able to reach Hudhaka Fortress. "According to the city on the ground, someone has calculated the current position of the people.

"This time, we must let the Holy Light Empire taste our strength!" Everyone has an indescribable disgust for the Holy Light Empire, which is constantly invading the Free Empire. After all, in the Free Empire, these masters of them have almost no restraints.

"After being promoted, my Heavenly Sword has not been opened yet...... He will soon be able to use him to feast on the birdmen's blood. "Grom 'licked' his lips and lips. The desire to fight began to burn in his heart.

"Everyone, where are you going in a hurry?" a loud voice suddenly sounded. Five white lights suddenly 'shot' from the ground, blocking everyone's way.

"Ambush?" Grom smiled coldly and looked at the other party. The rest of the battle list masters also stopped their bodies and stood on guard.

A handsome young man in gold armor and armed with a sword stood in the middle, none other than Semetis. Beside him were Cuomo and Ssol on the left, and on the right were Piro and a bishop, and then dozens of people flew up on the ground, all of whom seemed to be level 9 masters of the Holy Light Empire, surrounding a group of battle ranking masters.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time...... Semetis said with a calm smile on his face, as if he were talking to his old friend.
