Chapter 173: Open

The news of the total annihilation of the army in the Eastern Regions in the Southern Regions soon spread throughout the Holy Franc Empire, and many rebel forces in all directions were also active, and they spontaneously came to the Southern Regions to assemble over the obstacles.

With Fordshire as the center, and the surrounding four counties have established a quick communication system, magicians did not participate in the construction and maintenance of the city, and the warriors have also lifted boulders to build more solid walls, in just one month, Fordshire seems to be linked with the surrounding counties, forming a large city-state, even larger than the Holy Capital.

In terms of the Holy Capital of the Northern Regions, everyone was shocked when they learned the news of the defeat of the Eastern Regions army, and the Marshal of the Western Regions, Engree, was even more furious and wanted to gather troops to go to the Southern Regions. But their Western Regions sent half of their troops to the Southern Regions at that time, and the number of troops left in the Holy Capital at this time was less than 200,000, if they drew most of their strength and left, then the Holy Capital of the Northern Regions that they had finally conquered would probably change hands, which was not what they wanted to see. After thinking about it for a while, I can only choose to hold my troops first and see what kind of action the Eastern Regions will make.

As for the Eastern Regions, the people who stayed in the Holy Capital at that time were not the main force, and they began to retreat, relying on the snort of the Western Regions, and this time, people were even more panicked. Fortunately, a commander in the Eastern Regions sprung up with absolute strength, subduing all the discordant voices, and reuniting the originally broken military spirit.

But this alone is far from offset, because the fall of the High Lord of the Eastern Regions, Bahaya, has brought low morale to the Eastern Regions. All the Eastern Regions Commanders knew they were in desperate need of a victory to save their morale, which was already on the verge of death.

Just when both regions in the Eastern Regions were in a dilemma because of whether to send troops to attack the Southern Regions, the outbreak of another incident completely alleviated the situation in the Southern Regions and ushered in a difficult period of recuperation.

The three major families of the Holy Capital have completely broken up, and the two ancient families of Heinze and Ferek and the Hogg family are completely on opposite sides.

The richness of the two families is also amazing to the world, and there are actually two secret strongholds hidden in the Takla Forest behind the Northern Regions. After the war began, the strong men under the joint command of the two major families and 200,000 elite soldiers launched a fierce counterattack, which caught the rebels in the Western and Eastern Regions by surprise for a while.

But after the situation gradually stabilized, the rebel armies of the Eastern and Western Regions actually united together, forming a four-way confrontation with the two families, and for a while, the war entered a stalemate of mutual constraints.

But because of the continuous months of conquest, the armies of the Eastern and Western Regions are already very tired, and the two major families are facing them with a heyday posture, which naturally makes it difficult for the Eastern and Western Regions to join forces. After less than half a month of fighting, it had already begun to decline, with more defeats and fewer victories.

And the old patriarch of the Hogg family, Saidigar, made a move at this time, as the strongest person among the human race, cultivating to the 80-level saint-level level, the strong domain power is no longer an opponent that can be won by relying on the advantage of numbers.

Under the suppression of strong strength, even the two major families can only temporarily rest down, but they naturally will not sit still, and continue to send invitations to the remnants of the royal family in the outside world to jointly crusade against the rebellion.

For a time, the entire Saint-Franc Empire was surging, and the war that was originally limited to the northern and southern regions was instantly expanded to the whole country.

Eastern Regions

and in the Western Regions, many of the confidants originally planted by the royal family have risen one after another. The Lyman family has ruled the Saint-Franc Empire for hundreds of years, and no one believes that they really have no backhand, and because the royal family collapsed too quickly, although the forces of all parties wanted to help, they were also powerless.

And now, with the two major families of the Holy Capital taking the lead, many rebel forces have also stood up and responded to the call.

At Ron's suggestion, Leon also returned to the Holy Capital to preside over the overall situation, and the surviving clansmen of the Lyman family at that time also gradually surfaced at this time, and it turned out that these clansmen were protected by the last group of paladins at that time.

The Imperial Princess Jenny did not die, and after being found by the Paladin, they hid together in a temporary shelter for the royal family. After Leon returned, he and his sister Erica regained control of the imperial palace with the help of the two major families.

However, although the Holy Capital of the Northern Regions has returned to the control of the royal Lyman family, the war is still fermenting. A month after the end of the battle in the Southern Regions, a large-scale demonic invasion broke out in many parts of the Western and Eastern Regions, killing tens of thousands of ordinary people and turning tens of thousands of people into ghouls who only knew how to kill.

The generalissimo of the Western Regions, Engree, was killed in the civil strife in the Western Regions, and at the last moment he directly chose to blow himself up to destroy the overwhelming demon ghouls, and at the last moment of his life, he hysterically shouted at the sky: "Ginoarant, you complete liar, I curse you not to die well!"

Compared to the Western Regions, the Eastern Regions are much calmer, but this calmness makes people feel creepy. After the appearance of a large number of ghouls, they did not constantly attack civilians like in the Western Regions, but gathered together neatly, as if they were soldiers ready to go, waiting to be reviewed by the general.

A man in a black cloak stood at the forefront of the ghoul army, looking at the army of four or five hundred thousand ghouls, the corners of his mouth gradually sank, and a faint worry crept up his brow.

A month ago, Meropo followed the traces left by the armies of the Western and Southern Regions to the outskirts of Fort County, and found that the armies of the Eastern Regions had been defeated, not only defeated, but also strangely defeated, and even the corpses could not be left.

This surprised him at the same time, and at the same time, there was a deep fear in his heart.

As a fearful person, he usually feeds on fearful emotions, but he didn't expect that he would be entangled in such emotions in the end.

Because he knew that if he couldn't get the god-slaughtering weapon in Leon's hand, what awaited him would definitely be the monstrous wrath of the Greedy Demon King. It's just that in the current situation, even if he gets the God Butcher weapon, can he really be safe?

Apparently impossible. The reason why those demon kings are reluctant to take action in person is not that they don't have that kind of strength. It's that once these demon king-level powerhouses make a move in this world, they will immediately be discovered by powerful organizations such as the Great Sanctuary, the Shagard United Council, and the Urerdak Wizards Association.

They will definitely not take the lead before they have absolute strength to fight with these organizations, otherwise the death of the doppelganger projected in this world will be small and threaten the demon world

In the end, no one can withstand the monstrous wrath of that one.

At this time, although his strength has not reached the point of attracting the attention of those powerful organizations in the world, he can launch such a large-scale war, and it will inevitably be noticed by those big forces. The Demon Realm has been recuperating for so many years, and now that it has been exposed, he, as a person exposed to the light, will not be able to live no matter what.

It's just that instead of dying at the hands of the Demon King, he would rather die at the hands of humans, which might reduce some of the suffering.

Hula!

A gust of wind blew through him, rattling the two fleshy wings behind him. The yellow sand in the sky rolled up small tornadoes and rolled up real dust on the ground. A pitch-black crack suddenly cracked in the sky, and a human woman strode out of it with a serious expression on her face.

Meropo instantly knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, "My lord!"

"I have asked Ginoarand to cooperate with you, the Western Regions are now in chaos, and even the Western Regions troops originally stationed in the Southern Regions have set off to return to the many counties in the Western Regions, and no one has been able to get out of the quagmire of the Western Regions for a while. That's all I can do, my mirror image will disappear soon, live well, come to me in the Great Rift of Thorns......" The woman finished her words in one breath, and then dissipated directly between heaven and earth, if it weren't for the slowly closing spatial crack, otherwise no one would know that there was a beautiful and moving beauty standing here just now.

"Live well...... Hehe, how can it be so simple. Merobo smiled bitterly, and immediately, a cold expression appeared on his face, and he shouted at the vast army of ghouls in front of him, "Great army, go on the expedition! The era of the Demon Realm is about to begin, so let's make a little contribution to the army as the vanguard of the Demon Realm." ”

Ghouls have a very low IQ and are almost exclusively low-level creatures that know how to eat. But each ghoul also has a combat power close to level 20, and its vitality is extremely tenacious. With a huge number of nearly 500,000, anyone who sees it will have a numb scalp.

Ten days later, outside the Holy Capital, there was no end in sight to the army of black ghouls. And at this time, a tragic war broke out in the Holy Capital.

Today's holy capital has long been devoid of ordinary people, and there are ruins left behind by the collapse of houses everywhere, and the prosperity and glory of the past are like yesterday's yellow flowers, which no longer exist.

"Sedigar, I also feel very guilty about what happened to you before, but believe it or not, what I said is the truth, there is no half-truth, everything is a conspiracy of the demon world!" Leon said as he waved the sword in his hand, resisting a wave of magic thrown by several attendants of the Hogg family.

"Hehe, can this kind of clumsy lie deceive me? In short, if you don't destroy your Lyman family, how can you be worthy of the peerless genius of the family's generation, and how can you be worthy of the huge heritage accumulated by your ancestors. You are the only one left in the Lyman family, as long as you are killed, the Lyman family will naturally perish!hahahaha!" said Saidigal with a crazy laugh.

"No, no, the army of ghouls is coming to attack the city!" said one of the scouts as he sprinted all the way to Leon's side.

This news suddenly made Leon's face pale for a while, and his lips trembled and he actually spoke.
