Chapter 1317: Fortune Chessboard
Three days later......
The smoke of the city of Lokol has not yet completely dissipated.
The entire interior of the city was littered with ruins, scorched frames that had burned through the roof, billowing black smoke and a terrible stench of pungent odor.
The Wizard's Tower, located in the center of the city, has also lost its grandeur and grandeur, standing there like a half-charred wooden stick, and its appearance looks full of endless misery and desolation.
The Witch Tower has been breached.
Sixteen of the Enthom wizards were undoubtedly captured by the Crimson Fleet, including thirteen Rank 1 wizards and three Rank 2 wizards.
The reason why they didn't escape with the help of the teleportation array inside the Witch Tower was not because they didn't want to run, but because the Crimson Fleet used the Witch Array to interfere with the surrounding plane teleportation on the first moment they arrived in Lokol City.
Therefore, there was no escape, and the wizards of the Entom family who remained in Lokol City became abandoned pawns, and obediently took the initiative to raise their hands and surrender after the Witch Tower was breached.
According to the war regulations of the wizarding world, neither side of the war is allowed to kill wizard captives who have given up resistance. Otherwise, it will be spurned and resisted by all wizards!
There is no wizard who does not cherish his life......
Although these wizards had a service contract with the Entom family, they required Enochon's service and loyalty in exchange for resources or status. But that doesn't mean they need to give their lives for the Entom family.
Therefore, the moment the Wizard's Tower was breached, their contract mission was completed. All that's left is to obediently raise your hands and surrender, and find a way to exchange resources or something else for your freedom.
After all, if they were really the core members of the Entom family, they would not have been abandoned under the butcher's knife of the Crimson family at this moment of fierce battle.
The Crimson Fleet stayed here for two days, and waited for the other two detachments to arrive.
Mary and Arms each led two giant ships to raid two other Entom family territories. It can be seen from the way they returned that they were full of mood and harvested.
War is undoubtedly one of the fastest means and ways to amass wealth!
Although most of the resources were collected back to Kthlinburg by the Entom family, the little remaining resources were enough to make Grim's party eat with a mouthful of oil.
After the three Crimson fleets were reunited, they did not stop and went straight to Kthlinburg.
This is why the Crimson family has a large number of floating giant ships to be so arrogant. If it were another wizard family, the team was carrying a large number of witchcraft troops, affiliated legions, and aristocratic servant troops to do some dirty work, but they couldn't do such a reckless transfer.
These guys can't fly, and not only are they slow, but they also have to rely on logistics and supplies.
If you take them out to fight, you can only attack them one pass at a time. Otherwise, once the supply line is cut off, the witchcraft army will be better, and the subordinate legions and noble servant armies will definitely collapse.
However, these problems did not exist in the slightest in the face of the Crimson Fleet, which was on a cross-regional expedition.
All the legions, all the troops, all the provisions, all the resources are stored in the floating ship. It is only in wartime that these things are fully displayed to the enemy. In normal times, they are hidden.
Without ground troops, there is no need to fight all the way.
After bulldozing the three territories of the Entom family, Grim received a long-awaited message and did not hesitate to order the Crimson Fleet to advance towards Kthlinburg at high speed.
The previous battle of the gravel canyon can only be said to have lifted the fig leaf in the middle of the continent and unconcealed the internal contradictions of Tallinn.
The new forces led by Grim have gathered a powerful force that is powerful enough to subvert the inherent forces in the central part of the continent. And Gravel Canyon is the first stop to unveil the curtain!
However, due to the interference of too many external factors, the victory was dragged into the mud and water, and the victory was unclear. Therefore, it is clear that the blow to the inherent forces has not yet reached the point of making them subservient, and it will put the scattered Tallinn and even the entire central part of the continent in danger of splitting.
Once they give Fried and the others time and opportunity, they will definitely bring in external forces at the cost of selling the middle of the continent. At that time, the entire scattered Tallinn will inevitably be in flames of war, and the beacon smoke will be everywhere!
If you don't want to fight the foundation of your future circle, Kesslinburg will have to fight, and it will be a battle that must be won!
Grim's previous march was so slow, and he even had time to sweep the three Entom family territories, not because he was not in a hurry, nor was the battle not urgent enough, but because he ...... The time has not yet come!
Grim is waiting......
He's waiting for a message from Alice, a message when the time comes!
Life is like a chess piece, and fate is like a chessboard!
He's slowly approaching, forcing the enemy to make some irrational choices.
And once the enemy did so, for Grim, his march was no longer a bully, disrupting the center, and fighting for territory, but had another layer of positive significance.
That is to set things right and give the central part of the continent a new order that can be expected!
And all this is not for the world to see, but for 'destiny'.
At his level, with the assistance of Alice, the leader of the Witches of Fate, fate is no longer an invisible and mysterious mystery for him. It's a great power that can be touched and borrowed from!
Since advancing to the 4th rank, everything Grim has done and every action he has arranged has fully taken care of the overall interests of the wizarding community. Even many times, at the expense of harming the interests of some Crimson families, he has to 'dress' himself as a character who takes care of the overall situation and endures humiliation.
Obviously has the strength of a super strongman, but he still pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger and still shows weakness in the middle of the continent; the establishment of the Horton Witchcraft Academy sacrifices the short-term interests of the Crimson family to promote the disintegration of the wizard family in the middle of the continent; and even the confrontation of the 4th order forces in the back is the first to provoke the war by the other party, and the Crimson family is just passively responding to the battle......
This one by one, made Grim's actions seem passive and cowardly, but they also allowed him to successfully evade the countermeasures of the plane consciousness and position himself on the side of the 'righteous'.
This identity is important, very important!
The reason why so many wizarding geniuses and wizarding predecessors are deeply rejected by the wizarding world is because of their ignorance and unscrupulousness.
The wizarding world has bred so many high-level powerhouses, not to let them stir up trouble and cruelly torture and kill in their own world, but to treat them as their high-level slaves and high-level thugs. In this way, once an alien civilization invades, the wizarding world can gather enough strength to expel the enemy.
The relationship between the wizarding world and wizards is like that between a hive and a swarm, only when the swarm grows and grows, and can continue to plunder more resources and people from the outside world, the hive can further improve itself.
And the improvement of the hive can also bring more and more direct benefits and benefits to the bee colony, allowing them to fly faster, have sharper claws, and become more powerful......
The two complement each other and are a symbiotic and mutually beneficial relationship!
However, the infringement of the laws of the plane by the super-level wizards is still too strong, so the wizarding world has to expel the super-level wizards who are beyond the carrying range of the plane. Otherwise, if they are allowed to stir up trouble within the plane, sooner or later they will become a cancer in the development of the plane.
And once such a guy is targeted by the plane consciousness, sooner or later he will be devoured by the power of fate!
Therefore, Grim had to be careful and disguise his ambitions in various ways.
Although his ambition can be seen by a wizard, this set is useful for dimensional consciousness. Because the plane consciousness is an absolute utilitarian who only looks at the result, not the process.
Or more accurately, dimensional consciousness has not yet evolved to distinguish between the subtle emotions of human beings, and can only judge the value of your existence by the impact that your actions bring to the world. The subtle differences in this also give Grim the possibility of acting with the power of fate......
It is always fair and just for the plane consciousness!
These wizards born in the middle of the continent are all its children and its resources. Whether it is Fried and the others who represent the inherent forces, or Grim, who represents the emerging forces, they are all members of the scattered Tallinn, and they are all part of its vast dimensional consciousness.
In the event of a struggle and contradiction between the two groups, the existence of which group is more beneficial to the wizarding world will become the object of the more favored by the plane consciousness. And every move of the plane consciousness is completed by manipulating the power of fate.
Therefore, Alice can guess the true mind of the plane consciousness by observing and perceiving the flow and change of the power of fate in the middle of the continent.
And just when the Crimson Fleet was slowly attacking Lokol City, revealing the empty rear, Fred and the others, who were shocked by the Crimson Will, finally made some decisions. And their decisions are unaware of them, and the outside world does not know them at all, but they cannot hide their ubiquitous dimensional consciousness.
Therefore, the balance of fate, which has always been fair, has finally tilted!
And after receiving Alice's prompt, Grim no longer hesitated, and immediately swung his army directly at Kethlinburg, and his attack was fierce and fast beyond the enemy's imagination.
So, on the seventh day after the Crimson Fleet broke into the territory of the Entom family, the floating giant ship finally arrived at Kthlinburg!
…………
It is a fortress of war on high alert.
All the withdrawn wizard troops and family wizards gathered around the perimeter of Kthlinburg, relying on the war witch towers and defensive witch arrays, putting on a bloody battle to the end.
The entire Kesslinburg perimeter has been guarded so impregnable that not even a single fly can easily fly in and out.
