There are many stories of the Great Flood in ancient legends throughout the Western continent. And most of these stories are tragic.

When the flood overwhelms everything, it brings death and despair. In all directions, there is no way out, as if the end is coming, this feeling is terrifying to think about.

Of course, legends are legends after all. No one will believe that it is really happening right in front of their eyes. Even people who have experienced river floods in the past few years do not believe that there will be ancient floods in the real world.

The people who lived in the royal city of Persia, whether nobles, warriors, or civilians, never imagined that one day this vast and majestic city would be destroyed. And this kind of disaster is caused by the flood.

In fact, no matter which direction you look at, it is impossible for the Persian royal city to suffer from flooding. It was originally located on a higher ground, and although there were two large rivers nearby, even during the rainstorm season, it would not threaten the safety of the royal city. Moreover, the buildings of the city are made of huge long stones, but the force of the flood cannot break down such walls.

However, the confidence of the royal family and the people of the city that they could hold out to the last had just been re-established, and they thought that the Han army was powerless in the face of a strong city and a united heart. Unexpectedly, a huge accident suddenly came on this dark night.

The nobles gathered in the palace spent almost all these days in deliberations and feasts. A huge sense of crisis stimulated their nerves. Even though it had not been long since the news of the beheading of the Persian king had been heard, everyone had forgotten this grief for a while, or rather, the fear and fear in their hearts had been covered by the noise that had gathered.

What if the Han army cannot be defeated in the end? This is a serious problem, in fact, everyone has thought about it at one time or another. Still, no one spoke.

People are often like this, as long as they do not reach the last moment of despair, they will not easily believe that they are destined for fate. It's like these royal city people who represent the Persian race, who think that in the land where they have lived for generations, there will always be the heavens to protect them. Even if he is defeated in the end, it is impossible to be wiped out.

What's more, the elite warriors led by the prince are about to rush back. In the case of similar strength to the Han army, it is still somewhat certain to use the advantage of fighting at home to defeat or severely damage the Han army. After all, the people of the Han Dynasty should have been exhausted from the battle for thousands of miles, and how much morale would they have in such a rainstorm?

It is precisely because of this luck, or hope, that the people who gathered in the palace tonight for a feast were in a much more relaxed mood than the previous day. When talking to each other, there is a clear sense of lightness in the tone.

"The people of the Han Dynasty came all the way here, didn't they kill themselves? I have never heard of any country in this world that is so powerful and arrogant! ”

"Huh! yes, yes...... Isn't there an old saying that if heaven wants it to perish, it must first make it crazy! It was the army of the Han Dynasty that was talking about it. Judging by their posture a few days ago, it seemed as if they were about to capture our royal city. But who knows, the heavens will be angry, in a short time. It's already a dilemma. For us Persians, this is not God's help, so what can be called God's help? ”

"How dare they kill the great King of kings...... He will be severely punished by God. This rain that does not stop day and night is a clear sign! ”

"In any case, it has rained continuously for such a long time, and it will definitely have a serious impact on the morale of the Han army. If it takes time, when their logistics are cut off, I am afraid that without the desperate efforts of our samurai, they will also collapse without a fight! Hum! ”

"It's very likely! When the time comes, it is ...... to let them all die without a place to be buried. ”

The sound of chaos sounded in the main hall of the palace. In general, of course, it is unanimously agreed that the Han army will not last long. Sooner or later, the final victory will belong to the Persians.

As for defeat or surrender, it was never in their consideration. Even if some people thought about it, their worst prediction was that the war would drag on for a long time and cause some damage to the continent.

In the midst of such self-absorption, there are some sudden situations that are not detected in time. And by the time we knew, it was already too late.

I don't know when it started, but suddenly there was water in the city, and it rose very quickly. Countless people woke up from their dreams, and they began to flee from their homes in a panic. However, when he ran to the street, he found that under the dark night, there was a white expanse, which changed the original appearance of this royal city.

The defenders of the city, who came by trekking through the deep waters with their faces blank. He shouted out a terrible news to all the nobles in the palace.

"It's a big deal! The water in the river outside the city, for unknown reasons, is pouring down from the upper reaches and is flooding the royal city ......! ”

The nobles, who had thrown away their wine glasses, stood up in astonishment, and they listened to the thunderstorm outside, and wondered if their ears had misheard something.

What do you mean by that? How could this be ......! ”

However, the specific news that followed confirmed that what they heard was not an absurd rumor, but a terrible reality.

"The river outside the city has broken upstream! A huge roar can be heard at the top of the city, and the overwhelming flood directly impacts the direction where the royal city is located...... In a short time, even the city gates were flooded. The royal city is already very dangerous, should we consider mobilizing the whole people to go out of the city to take refuge? ”

These guards of the city who came to report the news were pale as they remembered the scene they had just seen, and their hearts were gradually sinking to the bottom. Only when you see it with your own eyes can you feel the horror. Although it was not clear in the darkness of the night, the loud sound of the waves crashing against the city wall was already terrifying.

If the nobles had adopted this most correct opinion at this time, perhaps many would have escaped. It's just that the stubbornness and suspicion that have always been made them make a wrong decision. After all, the best opportunity was missed.

"This must be a trick of the Han army! They wanted to use this method to force the people of the royal city to open the city and go out. Hum! You must not be fooled by them, and let their plans succeed. ”

The nobles with the highest status vetoed the possibility of abandoning the city at the first time. They thought that this was absolutely the Han army that could not support it, so they came up with such a vicious way to seek a quick battle. Of course, this can't get them what they want! And soon, others agreed with them. In their cognition, it is impossible for such a large royal city to be truly submerged by water. At most, the people in the city have suffered some losses. As long as you hold on and don't panic, there is no way for the Han army to attack the city.

The nobles who made the decision, just in case, some of them personally braved the rain to go to the city to see what the situation was. When they had left the palace, they trudged through knee-deep waters to the arches at the top of the city. These people had no idea at the time that they were here, and they were about to become the ...... of the few survivors in the city.

Beyond everyone's expectations, this flood was not an ordinary flood, it was blown open and guided by the excellent terrain, and the roaring surging water, like the legendary great flood that wiped out everything, with the momentum of destroying everything, poured into the Persian royal city!

Overnight, most of the surrounding city walls were flooded. The water in the city was several feet deep, and almost all the streets, houses, and buildings were sunk under water. Countless wailing voices came and went, trying to escape but with nowhere to run. The fortified walls that once protected them have now become a cage to prevent escape.

By the time the sky was gray, the heavy rain finally turned to a drizzle. And many painful struggles have finally stopped. All kinds of miserable voices gradually fell silent. The city of Persia, which had been soaked in the flood, had become a dead city.

The people on the arch tower at the head of the city can finally see what is happening clearly at this time. These royal nobles, who have been frightened and lost their souls, do not know what the point of staying here alive is. If you can choose again, it is better to stay in the palace last night and perish with the people there!

Turning around from here, the former royal palace no longer exists. The tall and wide buildings, as well as the places where the feasts were once held, were all flooded. The only thing that can determine the location of the palace is probably the golden dome of the highest palace. But it has not yet been submerged by the water, and it is left alone on the surface of the water, as if telling of endless misery.

As far as the eye could see, the city was full of floating dead bodies. Of course, more often than not, under the water, in those buildings, or in your own home. There are nearly more than 100,000 people in the city, regardless of their status, and they have become unjust souls under the water when they are buried in the city.

"Han Dynasty people...... Are they all devils!?"

Some of the royal nobles and the defenders of the city here add up to only two or three hundred. They huddled together, trembling and asking the heavens in pain. The thunder was faint, and the sky was deep, but there was no response.

However, someone will answer them in the place of God. Soon after, in their dull gaze, several boats were seen on the surface of the water formed by the flood. The drizzle and breeze, and the brightly coloured flags represent a spirit they have never experienced before, officially unfurled on the continent.
