Under the deliberate guidance of the Baltic Empire, the news of the extermination of the druid villages in the snowy mountains spread throughout the Northland in less than two days, and people first thought that it was just a rumor.

But when the Empire announced the news, no one would question it, not even those who stood on the opposite side of the Empire, because the Empire's announcement had never hidden false elements.

At least on the main plane, the integrity of the Baltic Empire does not need to be questioned too much, and even if it wants to be questioned, it is difficult to find something worth questioning, including those enemies who hate the Empire.

As a result of this, there was a violent riot in the British army, and many of the snow-capped druids lost the courage to continue fighting, and their loved ones were in the hands of the Empire.

Even if the empire doesn't do anything about it, there is sometimes no way to find a weak spot to crack it, and even if it doesn't say it explicitly, everyone knows that those women and children have become hostages to contain these druids.

These snow-capped druids are all human, they have the feelings that normal humans will have, and they will indeed stand on the opposite side of the empire for their own persistence and faith in their hearts.

Now, for the sake of their loved ones, it is not difficult to accept and understand to give up their previous insistence and choose to compromise with the empire.

However, there are still some of them who would rather risk the loss of their loved ones and continue to carry out their righteousness for the sake of their Druid teachings.

This led to a split within the Druids in the Snow Mountain, who saw their former companions as traitors and fought with no room for slaughter, which made the United Kingdom's defenses even more shaky.

With the animals under the control of the Snow Mountain Druids lost as reinforcements, the vulnerability of the United Kingdom was thus put on the table, and it was unmistakably presented in front of the eyes of the various powers.

Like the fallen dominoes, the situation of the druids in the snowy mountains is also affecting the judgment of the dwarves and elves, and many of them have strong grievances about participating in this war.

As the defeat grew, these grievances also accumulated, and soon there was a riot on the dwarven side, and the straight dwarves would use their weapons to solve the problem when they didn't like to be reasonable.

This made the dwarven king angrily smash the table where he usually eats, and then led the army to deal with the rebellions inside non-stop, and there was no way to worry about the war outside for the time being.

On the elven side, there was a long tussle, and the elven elders kept using words to engage in this fierce confrontation, each of them represented a different force with different interests, and many of them had a close relationship with the Baltic Empire.

It is conceivable that the elves who have not even unified their thoughts are in the combat effectiveness of their army, and they are just thinking about how to reduce their own losses on the battlefield and avoid the attention of the empire as much as possible.

It can be said that the elves and dwarves have no way to provide much support for the United Kingdom on the battlefield, and the army that only relies on the United Kingdom, wants generals without generals, and has no morale, will not be able to stop the edge of the empire.

Not to mention that the Imperial army was led by the man named Siegrud, the prince of Barusenger, the bloodline who nominally owned Scandinavia.

Seeing that the war was progressing so smoothly, the countries on the Celtic Isles, who originally wanted to make some small moves, were inexplicably quiet and honest, no matter what the situation was in the future, at least for now, they didn't want to leave a handle on the Baltic Empire.

No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, and even if it doesn't seem like anything unexpected, there will be a surprising change, as if no one could have imagined that Alice, a young girl, would be able to build the Baltic Empire from scratch many years ago.

At a time when the druids in the snow-capped mountains were plunged into brutal and unspeakable civil strife, what was reflected in the frontal battlefield was the rapid defeat of the United Kingdom, which was faster than ordinary people could imagine.

All the territories except the Norwegian Mountains were lost, and the castles that had been built in various prominent locations in the Norwegian Mountains were also planted with the banner of the Baltic Empire.

If you don't count the territory of the dwarves and elves, then in the entire Norwegian mountains, the only city left that belongs to the United Kingdom is the last city, which was originally built by Siegel to prepare for the decisive battle with Attila.

Gohm was now walking up and down the city walls with his hands behind his back, and he looked like he was on patrol to see if his soldiers were ready for defensive battle.

The situation was terrible, and he could not see the slightest fighting spirit in the faces of the soldiers, as if defeat was an inevitable future, and all they could do was to find a way to climb out of this quagmire before defeat came.

Probably before the enemy rushed to the walls, the soldiers would drop their weapons, run down the walls, and find a way to hide in the houses inside the city, waiting for the city to fall, and then surrender.

The situation has never improved, but has become more critical

Like Gorm's hair, the hair on his head became thinner and thinner as time passed, and it looked like a map of the Mediterranean, an ocean surrounded by land, and sun-drenched waters.

Just when he was scratching his ears and cheeks thinking of a way to defend and how to survive for a while, the news from the eastern battlefield made him completely fall into a situation where he could not do anything.

Originally, it was just a few people in the tavern, and the people were used to such rumors, and many of them knew that the people who spread these words were spies from the Baltic Empire, or people who had benefited from the Empire.

Although the news spread by these people before was true and confirmed, no one would believe it when this rumor, which sounded so ridiculous and like a lie, began to spread.

They treat those who swear, pat their chests, and witness the fall and rise of legends as drunken drunkards, believing that they have thrown away even the most basic bottom line in order to get money from the hands of the Empire.

But as more and more people said this, some people began to believe this fact, and they joined the ranks of witnesses who confirmed the rumor, and they swore the same oath.

When Gorm had a headache for the rout of the front line and the internal chaos, the situation really developed to the point where even he didn't know how to redeem it, and he really had nothing to do.

Whether the outcome of the Ural Mountains to the east is true or a ploy of the Baltic Empire, the rumors will now bring bad things to the United Kingdom.

When the majority of people are willing to believe this lie, no matter how many people try to defend it and what kind of evidence they come up with, it is difficult to change people's minds.

Without giving Gorm a chance to react, the king of the Dwarven Kingdom was successfully replaced, and the Dwarven Prince, with the support of various clans, succeeded in taking his father's place and banishing his father from the Dwarven Kingdom.

This is something that has rarely been seen in the long history of the dwarves, and it is basically the dwarven king who has gone against the grain and lost all the people who would support him.

The dwarven prince sent an embassy before he became the dwarven king, and the target was Jutland, the pearl of the Baltic Sea, which was now the political and economic center of the Baltic Empire.

They declared that their previous actions were the dictatorial will of the previous dwarven king, and that they were all against the will of the entire dwarven state, and that the dwarven king was willing to make amends for his previous actions, and to withdraw from the United Kingdom in this war, siding with the side of the Baltic Empire.

Less than half a day after the Dwarven Kingdom issued a declaration, the elves also made a similar declaration, only this time it was several older elders of the elves who were sinners, as well as the families and forces behind these elders.

When Sigurd arrived with his army to the fortified city, the city that his mother and Sigourney had built together had witnessed the destruction of the Scandinavian Empire and the rise of the United Kingdom.

Now that the city is about to witness the destruction of the United Kingdom, no one thinks that Gohm will be able to fight back, and even the gods will stand by in this battle.

Standing beneath the city, looking up at the figures on the city walls, Sigurud's eyes narrowed slightly.

Except for Jutland, there is no city in the Baltic Empire that can compare with the city in front of you, and even the city of Rice, which is the capital of the entire empire and the gathering place of the Sea Clan, is also incomparable.

Despair can be felt at the height of the walls, which are especially difficult for giants to climb, and the outside of the walls are covered with spikes made of solid rock.

If you look closely, you can still see that the entire city wall presents a relatively subtle arc, and when giant beasts like Beamon and Mammoth charge this wall, their impact will be dispersed to the entire city wall and the ground, which can effectively reduce the damage caused by the impact.

Needless to say, the walls of the city walls were made by dwarves, and they also adopted new techniques learned from the Baltic Empire, and the walls were mixed with obsidian and granite, both in terms of physics and magic, and they performed well.

In addition, the nearby land has been treated with special treatments, and it is difficult for magic such as [Seismic] and [Volcano] to change the terrain of the environment.

It should be said that the city built by Siegel and has the confidence to block the army of the Attila Empire, if it is followed by the previous method, even if the Baltic Empire has various advantages, it will cost a lot of money and take a long time to successfully occupy the city.

Unfortunately, now that the dwarves and elves have abandoned the United Kingdom, they may be in the aftermath of the war for the Baltic Empire, but there is no doubt that they have chosen to join the victors before they are completely defeated.

They are not outright failures, at least

And now only Gorm and his staunchest supporters are in the city, and the number of them has not exceeded five figures, which is undoubtedly shabby for the country.

One can't help but wonder if such a country is really the United Kingdom that can replace the Scandinavian Empire and stand with the Attila Empire and the Baltic Empire in the entire Northland

No matter how much you question it, the United Kingdom is so weak

Gohm poked his head out of the wall and made eye contact with Siegrud

If the enemy was Alice, he would never make such a dangerous move

However, although Siegrud is loyal to the Baltic Empire, he still has the blood of Barusenger in his bones, and he still admires the spirit of Scandinavia.

In appearance, Siegrud looks like Sigmund is young, but his eyes are very similar to Sigourn, to be precise, before Barusenge's upheaval, Sigourney was just a princess Barusenga.

It's as clear as the blue sky

Sigurud will not persuade him to surrender, he does not think that Gorm will choose to surrender, and even if he does choose to surrender, he will not dare to accept it, and the living Gorm will become an unstable bomb in the interior of the Baltic Empire anyway.

Rather than letting him make waves and die at the hands of those assassins, Siegrud thought that letting him die on the battlefield would leave a heroic evaluation in the history books, which was a sign of respect for Gohm.

There was no verbal exchange between the two sides, and each turned back to prepare for war, which may not last long, but it was undoubtedly a fierce battle.
