Chapter 9 The Storm Rises

The entire mountainous area in the western part of the Saada Empire, with the city-state of Grad as the core, was directly under the jurisdiction of the Saada royal family.

A hundred years ago, the young Satun I led his people out of the city-state of Grad, crossed the Lanting Mountains, and began a four-way campaign that lasted for more than ten years, and finally conquered the vast territory of the Saada Empire.

At that time, even the mighty Ernne Empire was afraid of this new empire.

Later, in order to better control the vast territory, Satun I moved the capital to the central part of the empire, but the western region has always been a key area for the royal family.

And the lordship of the city-state of Grad has always been a member of the royal family, which is why King Sutton II insisted on asking General Jackson to escort the princess here.

After leaving the Lanting Mountains, Luo Fan and his party soon arrived at the city-state of Grad. The news of the princess's entry into the city undoubtedly alarmed all the high-ranking members of the city-state of Grad, and before that everyone thought that the princess was dead.

After all, the entire empire, with the exception of the south and west, has been occupied by the Eun, and the despicable Ornians are wantonly for Princess Linna.

As for the southern region, it has long been occupied by the demons who crawled out of hell, and the main roads to the west have been blocked by the Ernne.

Therefore, the nobles of these Grad city-states did not expect Princess Lina to arrive here safe and sound.

That night, Prince Keyes, lord of the city-state of Grad, held a grand banquet to celebrate the princess's safe return. Due to the meritorious service of guarding the princess, Luo Fan was also fortunate to receive an invitation.

The banquet began, with Prince Keith giving a speech celebrating the princess's safe return, and saying something like the immortal Sada.

Anyway, Luo Fan didn't listen to it at all, but this scene reminded Luo Fan of what Teacher He looked like when he was teaching history class.

As soon as he thought of Teacher He, Luo Fan remembered the magical ancient book, and it was this book that brought him here, but until now Luo Fan didn't know what the purpose of this book brought him here.

Before you know it, Prince Case's speech is over, and the banquet officially begins, and the nobles begin to chat and entertain themselves. Luo Fan didn't like this kind of scene, and he couldn't blend in with their circle, so he simply left the banquet hall.

He casually found a balcony to stand quietly, looking at the empty night sky, Luo Fan once again felt a sense of tranquility that he had not felt for a long time.

I remember that Luo Fan used to like this, and every time the monthly exam was over, he would stand in the corridor of the classroom with the fat man. Looking at the night sky together, chatting about the years to come.

"It's really nostalgic. Luo Fan thought to himself.

Before Luo Fan could finish his sigh, Princess Lina's arrival interrupted his thoughts.

"What's the matter, don't you like this kind of party?", Lina greeted Luo Fan as an old friend.

"No, it's just a little homesick. ", replied Rovan.

"You'll get used to it later, after all, when I repel the Ernes, you'll become a true nobleman. Even though I know you don't care about this, please accept my gratitude, after all, you saved me twice. Lina hesitated.

After a moment of silence, the two of them looked at the starry sky at the same time again, just as they had done that night in the Lanting Mountains.

"Do you want to ask about scaring off Erne's army that night?", as if to see that Lina was about to speak, Rofan asked.

"What kind of magic did you use that day, and why is it so much like the divine punishment recorded in the ancient books?", Lina asked with a slight scruple.

"Divine punishment, you can also understand it this way, anyway, it is beyond your understanding. ", replied Lofan.

"So, you are gods?", Lena asked tentatively.

This can make Luo Fan down, he really doesn't know if he is a god or not, and he doesn't know what the definition of God is for people on this continent. But on second thought, the technological civilization of the Isamites can indeed be called gods in the Miracle Continent.

"Well, you can think of me as a messenger of God. It's a secret between us, though, and I don't want you to tell anyone else. Luo Fan casually took a compromise concept "divine messenger" and replied.

"The Messenger of God... Is it a secret?", Princess Lina muttered.

This conversation was almost over, and although Lena didn't say whether she would keep it a secret, Luo Fan believed her, an unreserved trust that even Luo Fan himself couldn't fathom.

A few days later, at the suggestion of the higher-ups of Grad, Princess Lena officially succeeded to the throne in the city-state of Grad and became Queen Linna, but she refused to accept the queen's crown.

The Queen's oath reads, "I, Queen Lina, the third monarch of the Kingdom of Saada, hereby solemnly swear.

In this life, it is my duty to expel the Grace people, and if the Grace people are not removed, I will not wear the sacred crown that symbolizes the supreme kingship...... One day, I will make the dastardly Eurens pay a terrible price for their stupidity. ”

Perhaps this is the way of history, when Satun I led his people out of the mountains and conquered the vast territory of the Saada Empire, which made the Ernn people fearful.

A hundred years later, his granddaughter, Queen Lina, once again stepped out of the Grad region, this time pointing her sword at the entire Miracle Continent, terrifying the Ernne. Of course, this is a long time later.

At this time, the Ernnes had successfully captured the city-state of Nicholon, but in fact, it could not be called a "capture". When the 100,000 troops of the Eron arrived at the city, the upper echelons of the city-state of Nicholon opened the gates directly.

The city-state of Nicron, when General Elier of the Empire heard that Queen Lena had succeeded to the throne in the western region and threatened to take revenge on the Ernes, Elier scoffed at this, at least not yet.

However, General Elier still does not know why the Saadan army went to the south, and they only learned about the movements of the Sada's army under the news of the spies, but they do not know the specific reason for this.

As we all know, the southern part of the Saada Empire is surrounded by the Great Grimm Forest, which is the most stable territory of the Saada Empire.

Moreover, the Norlan Empire to the south has never been able to successfully cross the precedent of the Great Grimm Forest, so General Elier still can't figure it out.

What kind of crisis could make the Sadans spare troops to return to the south even when they were fighting fiercely with Erne, in short, a sense of unease hit his heart.

Soon, though, General Elier will understand.

A week after Erne's army captured the city-state of Nicron, General Elier sent scouts to explore the southern part of the Sada Empire.

A few days later, when the thousands of scouts returned, only a few dozen remained, and General Elier realized the gravity of the situation. From the returning soldiers, General Elier received the same information as the previous Saada Empire.

"The devil who crawled out of Hell will pull everyone to Hell, and no one will escape God's punishment. These are the exact words of an accompanying pastor.

On the spot, General Elier immediately withdrew to the royal capital of Saada with 70,000 horses, leaving only 30,000 Erne soldiers stationed in Nicholon, this is to prevent the soldiers in the city from rioting, otherwise he would not want to stay here.

Unfortunately, he still underestimated the seriousness of this incident, and he could not predict what would happen next.

A week after General Elier left Nichollan, the defenders of the city finally saw hundreds of thousands of zombie legions in the distance. At this time, their fate has long been sealed, and no one can change it.

In fact, there is no problem with General Elier's decision-making, it's just that he hasn't seen the true face of the zombie army.

If it were Lofan, he would definitely retreat to the Ernn Empire as quickly as possible, and set up defenses along the border to prevent these damn monsters from entering his country's territory.

It's a pity that General Elier is not Luo Fan, and he has not seen the power of zombies, and by the time he understands, it will already be too late.

Ever since the evacuation from Nicholon that day, General Elier's mind has been echoing the words of the priest. So much so that as soon as he arrived at the royal capital of Saada, he was stuffed into the Royal Library Museum.

After immersing himself in it for a week, he finally found the tragic epic "Ragnarok" that recorded the end of the gods among many books.

The last part of "Ragnarok", in the Last Days, it is written:

In the year 3200 (the ninth Sam era), the war of the gods has come to an end, and the god king of Sox finally crushed the god king of Ilip with an absolute advantage.

Just when the gods thought that the thousand-year-long divine war between the two god kings was coming to an end, the unwilling to be defeated finally released evil energy in the light of the holy city of Noah, causing a large number of gods and humans to transform into immortal demons.

Eventually, the god king of Sox threw endless karmic fire from the sky, devouring the holy city and all the gods. Since then, there has been no trace of God in the world.

Although he didn't understand it much, this caught the attention of General Elier, and just as he was still hesitating to evacuate, the scouts in front of him came with bad news again. The garrison of the city-state of Nicholon has been wiped out, and the demons are coming here.

This time, General Elier did not hesitate for half a minute and immediately organized an evacuation. Although he didn't know what those demons were, what could destroy God was definitely something terrible, and it was not something that he could resist as a mortal.
