Chapter 44: Heroes
At this time, the architects, absentees, carpenters, and blacksmiths played an important role and did it in a big way. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoFirst of all, it is necessary to leave enough height for the World Tree, although this real treasure tree can easily crack the ground above its head with its own strength, and transforming the environment is as natural as breathing for the World Tree, but this kind of naturally occurring transformation will inevitably cause a little accidental injury, such as a few boulders suddenly falling from the top of the head. Therefore, the craftsmen of the secret hall dug all the way up, almost opening the secret hall to the ground, leaving only the last 10 meters of height, and then temporarily opened it in the future, according to Faro's calculations, enough to leave four years of space for the World Tree to grow. If Talisa and Zoli's plan had followed, the war would have ended in three years.
Zhuoli didn't tell anyone, and his mission was only a little over a year. He had a hunch that he would not be able to complete his mission or leave Sumar before the time limit expired. As soon as he thought of the terrifying evil power giant ship in the clouds, Zhuo Li shuddered, and he guessed that he had to have at least high-level stardust-level strength to have any hope of breaking out of the atmosphere of Sumar and entering the sea of stars.
In addition to expanding the space of the secret hall upwards, it is also necessary to expand downwards and parallel expansions. Passageways have been excavated to connect underground plazas, private residences and functional buildings.
In three months, the diameter of the spiritual net had reached 200 kilometers, and the secret hall had become a behemoth with six floors above and below, each of which was more than 10,000 square meters.
Zhuoli and Talisa replanned it and divided it into four functional areas.
The assembly area, used to announce the major decisions of the rebels, announce some latest information, and let people gather and share, there are many large squares, monuments, etc., and the World Tree is the center of the assembly area.
The living quarters, where demon hunters and artisans live, are not easy to make each person or family feel respected.
The military zone is mainly where Farrow and Wen Lei train demon hunters, and as more and more fallen souls are transformed, there are also some people who are originally from military backgrounds and show good strength, Faro promotes these people to officers, and some people are organized into elite squads to carry out field missions to search and rescue blighted souls.
The business district, where there are all kinds of things, those craftsmen, artists, and merchants are gathered here to meet people's needs and do business at the same time, and there is a faint prototype of business.
In addition to these four functional areas, there is also a high headquarters, located in the center of the assembly area, which is actually the location of the original secret hall. There are now five people in the High Command, Talisa, Zhuoli, O'Schiller, Farrow, and Wenlei. Major decisions are made by five people, but most of the time Talisa and Zhuoli make the decision, and if there is a dispute, Talisa has the final say.
O'Schiller fully demonstrated his skills as a teleportation master, using the center of the secret temple as the base point of teleportation, three portals have been opened, one portal is on the ground directly above them, so that it is extremely convenient to go to the ground from the secret temple, the second one is opened in a secret location in the depths of the Asuna Rift, which is where the demon hunters conduct field training, and the third portal is the farthest away, in a meadow 500 kilometers away, which is used as a secret passage for escape, once the demon legion finds the secret temple and kills in, Civilians will escape through this portal.
In the space of three months, the new rebel army formed by Talisa was full of vitality, and unlike the original elite squad route, this time, she had to mobilize the power of the people to fight a protracted war.
Finally, as long as the last spirit net node is ignited, the strength of the spirit net can reach the point where the withered can transform itself into a withered state without the need for a transformer.
Just one day before Zoli decided to set off again and ignite the tenth Spiritual Web node, a newly transformed Demon Hunter arrived at High Command, saying that he had something important to report to Talisa and Zori.
Under one of the branches of the World Tree, there is a relatively comfortable hut, but the room is decorated in a distinctly military style, with a large square table topped by a full-replica sand table of several strategic locations, a few chairs placed at random, and a tactical board hanging on the wall, drawing some of Talisa's and Zhuoli's military plans.
At this time, there were three people in the room, Talisa, Drori, and the newly transformed demon hunter.
"You say that the only son of Grand Duke Farien is still alive!? Trapped in the Evil Fortress? ā
After listening to the report of the demon hunter named 'Loramth', Talisa immediately stood up, her expression full of shock, and if you knew her, you could read a joy in it.
"It's true, Lord Talisa, Lord Valedi is now trapped in the Evil Spirit Fortress, this is my last memory, but according to my speculation, I was discovered and saved by your elite team no more than a week after I became the Blighter." Lorams said.
He was a professional soldier, a former lieutenant colonel in the 'Warblers' under Grand Duke Farryn. After suffering unimaginable ordeals, although he saved his life, he lost his eyes, and now a black cloth wrapped around the original window of his soul added a bit of strange charm to him.
Although he lost his eyes, Lorams's movements were not affected, but he felt more acute, and his grasp of his surroundings was much better than when his eyes were still there. Now, with his former experience as an officer and his outstanding combat prowess, Lorams has been appointed by Farrow as the captain of an elite squad.
"If that's the case, then we need to carry out a raid on the Evil Fortress. Grand Duke Farion is a true hero, and his bloodline deserves to be saved. ā
Talisa groaned, putting all the sand tables on the table into her storage space, and with a wave of her hand, laid down a tactical sand table for the Evil Spirit Fortress.
"Evil Fortress? It sounds weird. Zoli sat in his chair and listened to Lorams's report the whole time, as a foreigner, he did not understand the important information contained in the report, "Who is the Grand Duke of Farion?" ā
"Grand Duke Farion is a hero of my people." Talisa begins to tell the story of Archduke Farion.
Farion-Moonstone, Duke of Moonlight. Since the unexpectedly fall of the last emperor of the Fallen Spirits 5,000 years ago, there was no longer an emperor in the Parliament, and the Duke was the highest title of nobility. The Moonstone family is the top wealthy family second only to the Starlight family in the Fallen Spirit Clan, and in fact, there are inextricable blood ties between the two families.
Formerly known as the Moonlight Fortress, the Evil Fortress was the hereditary fiefdom of Grand Duke Farion and the stronghold of Sumar. After the Legion of the Demon descended on Sumar, Gugalo demonstrated his strength in crushing the beings and gave Lisandro three days to consider whether to surrender.
At the emergency meeting presided over by Lisandro, the great nobles did not support the surrender from the beginning, and a number of the great nobles expressed their firm determination to fight to the death, and Farion, the Duke of Moonlight, was one of the leaders. But overall, the number of the main descendant has a slight upper hand.
The Grand Duke of Farion immediately took the case and angrily rebuked the nobles who advocated surrender, "Pathetic! Shameful! As nobles, where is your noble courage? A frog in the ditch is nobler than you! You are willing to be slaves to the Demon Legion, but once the Well of the Night is taken away, our people will die! The Fallen Soul will be history! ā
However, the Grand Duke's words did not alert many nobles, who behaved indifferently and even insensitively.
Grand Duke Farion immediately left Nightstar City and returned to his fiefdom, the Moonlight Fortress, and as he left, he announced, "Whatever the Council decides, I will fight the Demon Legion to the death!" I'm going to tell Gugallo that no matter how strong he is, he can't let Sumar fall without a fight! ā
From beginning to end, Lisandro didn't say a word, but her palms were bloody.
Back at the Moonlight Fortress, Grand Duke Farion immediately reorganized his army, he had the blood of the ancient royal family, his prestige was extremely high, the people and troops of the entire territory were united with him, and the proud character and dignity of the people of Moonlight City refused to allow the Demon Legion to enter their territory.
However, no one expected that Gugallo's movements would be so fast. The next day, the demon swept through the area, its wings obscuring the sun, and the green fire destroyed the ancient and magnificent castle into ruins.
Gugallo himself led the army to level the place, and Farion's army fought very bravely, although the warriors knew from the beginning that they would die today, but no one retreated, it was a tragic battle, and all the fallen people who followed the Grand Duke of Farion were killed, men and women, young and old, soldiers and civilians. Survivors can also become blighters, which may be even more tragic than death.
Gugallo personally confronted Archduke Farion, and with a single blow he had his head cut off and stuck it on a stake at random.
As the war spreads, the entire land is polluted green, and what was once a moonlit fortress has become what is now a fortress of evil spirits. When night falls, it's like hell.
The current Evil Fortress is garrisoned by one of Gugalo's generals, Maude, the younger brother of Overseer Ricardo, the powerful Anda Demon, and a large army of the Demon Legion.
"If we want to take here, it will be a tough battle, and with our current strength, it will not be an easy thing to do." After telling the story of Grand Duke Farryn, Talisa frowned slightly, the most difficult time as a leader is the moment to make a decision.
"Since you must fight, then don't look ahead!" Zhuo Li stood up suddenly, "Although the first battle is very difficult, it is not good news for our team that still needs to be honed, but once we pass this level, the Demon Hunter Legion will be reborn and become a real elite division." ā
Talisa's eyes lit up.
Zoli asked Lorams again, "Are you sure that Valedi was not captured by the Demon Legion, but was trapped in a crypt in the Evil Fortress?" ā
