Two thousand eight hundred years ago, there was a war on the Mulan continent that changed the situation of the entire continent, and the Holy See of Light, which ruled the south, and the dark Holy See state, which ruled the north, fought a crazy war at the junction of the two countries and the surrounding areas.

This war has spread to the entire continent from the beginning, and the two religious kingdoms have mobilized all their forces in the country to try to eliminate each other through this war and make themselves the masters of the entire continent.

From the very beginning, this war was destined to be extraordinary, and as a result, this protracted war was fought for more than 100 years, because this war was a struggle between different beliefs and different gods, so history called this war the war of the gods.

This war gathered almost all the powerhouses of the Light Holy See State and the Dark Holy See State, only there were more than two hundred strong people in the Holy Domain, and there were even more ninth-level powerhouses and eighth-level powerhouses in the other places.

In normal times, these people are god-like beings, and they are looked up to by the world, but now they appear on the battlefield like a small soldier, and their fall has become no longer eye-catching, and it is not too much to call him a battle of the gods in the history books.

The reason for the war is still a mystery, as the powerhouses of the Light and Dark Holy See who participated in the war both fell in this war, including their respective religious emperors.

In this war, the Holy See of Light and the Holy See of Darkness lost nine out of ten of their respective masters, and even the Pope also fell, and hurriedly left the battlefield, and hurriedly elected their new Popes.

Obviously, the weakened Holy See can no longer continue to rule this world of the jungle, and the powerful forces of various races have risen one after another, occupying the throne, first uniting against the two Holy See kingdoms, and then attacking each other after the Holy See's armies withdrew from the competition for the continent.

This is the darkest period in the two thousand years since the Holy See of Light and the Holy See of Darkness ruled the entire continent, and life has become so fragile at this time, and the ugliest side of human nature has been infinitely magnified.

At the beginning, there were more than 800 influential vassal states in the entire continent combined, not to mention those small princes who died day and night, and they did not know how many of them could not be on the stage, so history called this period of time the Warring States Period.

The Warring States period existed for more than 1,000 years, and in the mutual attack, the big forces gradually rose, the small forces gradually perished, and of course, there were those who defeated the strong with the weak and became the big forces.

With the gradual elimination of the vassal states, the major forces on the mainland gradually stabilized, the disputes between various ethnic groups gradually subsided, the mainland tended to be peaceful, and a new continental situation came into being.

The Horqin steppe, an extremely cold land at the northern tip of the continent, was gradually unified by the Orc hero Beamon the King Torre, forming a tribe-based orc kingdom.

The western part of the continent maintains a large number of primeval forests and has become a paradise for the elves, and the forest elves who originally supported the Light Holy See and the night elves who supported the dark papacy merged to form the Elven Elven Elders' Council, which is responsible for the appointment of the elven king and the handling of various affairs of the elven race, thus forming a unified elven kingdom.

The southwestern part of the continent is mostly hilly, rich in mineral deposits, and is a gathering place for dwarves who are good at casting. Before the War of the Gods, it was split in two by the Light and Dark Sees, and became the weapons processing center of the two Holy See States. After the War of the Gods, the freed dwarves gradually united through the war, and under the leadership of Dion, the hero of the dwarven tribe, known as the king of the hill, they repelled the invasion of humans and avoided the fate of being enslaved again, and Dion, the king of the hill, successfully became the first king of the dwarves.

The vast eastern and southern parts of the continent were occupied by humans, and through years of warfare and annexation, eight principalities and four kingdoms were gradually formed, as well as a small number of free cities between principalities and duchies, duchies and kingdoms, and kingdoms and kingdoms.

Although it was not very peaceful for these major forces and races to attack each other, the scope of the war was generally only between the borders of various countries, and the people in the interior lived comfortably.

Our story begins with the Kingdom of Chartres, one of the four great kingdoms of mankind.

The Kingdom of Chartres is located at the northernmost point of the human world, bordering the Orc Kingdom through the vast Lands of the Damned.

This cursed land is a plain with a radius of thousands of miles, a fertile field during the War of the Gods, and the main granary of the Dark Holy See.

However, during the War of the Gods, in order to weaken the strength of the Dark Holy See State, the Pope of Light personally led the main army to attack here.

In order to defend against the invasion of the Holy See of Light, the Pope of the Holy See of Darkness also led the main force here to fight the army of the Holy See of Light in the largest battle ever.

According to historical records, this battle lasted for 68 years, with at least 30 million soldiers killed and countless wounded, and as many as 168 Sacred Domain powerhouses killed on both sides.

This battle not only damaged the vitality of the continent, but also exhausted the elites of the two Holy See states, and in the end, the popes of both sides actually used the magic of Great Prophecy.

The Great Prophecy is a magic used by the gods, and it is a kind of divine art and a forbidden art that can only be learned by the popes of various religions through sincere prayer to the gods.

The power of the Great Prophecy Technique is not something that mortals can bear, even if the two Popes are both realm peak powerhouses who are only one step away from the divine position, they can only turn into a pinch of loess under the attack of the Great Prophecy.

The millions of armies on both sides suffered an unjustified disaster, and all of them were wiped out under the aftermath of the Great Prophecy, and since then this green and green plain has gradually lost its former vitality, and the flowers and trees have gradually withered, and finally become a barren land.

There are two theories about its cause, one of which is that the great prophecy of the two popes made the land lose its vitality, and this theory is not shared by most people, because although the great prophecy is powerful, it has not yet reached the point of being so evil as cutting off life.

The second theory, which is also widely accepted, is that the Dark Pope's scepter artifact, the Cursed Heart, fell on the land, and the evil power of the artifact Cursed Heart made the land a barren land.

The power of the gods is imprisoned in the artifact, and the power of the Great Prophecy Technique used by the two popes is much smaller compared to it, and only the true divine power can achieve the power of this kind of vicissitudes of life.

Even if human beings can't exert one-twelfth of their power, this is already considered an existence against the sky, so for thousands of years, countless powerhouses of all races have come here to explore, trying to find this legendary scepter, but in the end they found nothing, and gradually rumors became legends.

The Cursed Lands are not devoid of other creatures, not only are they very dangerous, but they are also unique to the Cursed Lands.

It is an animal similar to a lizard, the adult is about two meters tall and three meters long, the whole body is covered with scales, it moves quickly, and it can be regarded as a dragon with wings, so it is called the earthly dragon.

This dragon-like species is a new species, appearing more than a hundred years after the desolation of the Cursed Lands, and has been massively bred in the Cursed Lands, becoming the only species in the Cursed Lands.

The adult Earthwalking Dragon is a seventh-level demonic beast, and some Earth-Walking Dragons can reach level eight, but I have never seen a ninth-level Earth-Walking Dragon, maybe level eight is the limit of the Earth-Walking Dragon.

Neither carnivorous nor herbivorous, the Earth Walker feeds on an extremely distinctive black stone that excretes red iron ore instead of feces.

Someone took the black stones and studied them, and found that these stones were actually iron ore, but there was a stream of energy stored in the stones, making the red iron ore black.

No one knows how to use this energy, and only the stomach of the Earth Walking Dragon can convert the energy in the stone into its own energy, so someone risked his life to enter the Cursed Land and suffered heavy losses before he caught a minor Earth Walking Dragon for research.

The researchers eventually found that in every way, the Earth Dragons were amplifications of the lizard, but with an additional core that could digest black iron ore and provide energy.

On the mainland, high-level magical beasts are solitary animals, they live with their spouses and children at most, occupy a place alone, and do not allow other creatures that threaten them to approach their territory.

But as a high-level demonic beast, the Earth Walking Dragon is an exception, they like to live in groups, most of them are seventeen or eighteen for a population, and the large population can reach twenty-seven or eight.

A small population of seventeen or eighteen usually has an eighth-level as its leader, and if a new eighth-level demonic beast is not formed before the old eighth-level demonic beast dies, this population will usually be swallowed up by other populations.

For a large population of twenty-seven or eight, there would usually be two or three Rank 8 Earth Walking Dragons, with the most powerful Earth Walking Dragon as the leader, and the remaining Level 8 Demonic Beasts as their successors.

As a natural barrier between the Kingdom of Chartres and the Orc Kingdom, the characteristics of the Earth Dragons are by no means limited to this.

In the Cursed Lands, although there is fierce internal fighting within the Earthwalking Dragons, they have a high degree of consistency in the face of invading foreign races.

Earthwalkers have a very peculiar function, when a foreign tribe invades their territory, they can call their kind within ten miles of the surrounding area to gather and work together to expel the invaders.

In view of this function of the Earth Walking Dragon, whether the Kingdom of Chartres wants to attack the Orc Kingdom, or the Orc Kingdom wants to attack the Kingdom of Chartres, even if they use the army to open the way, how powerless they will become in the face of more and more high-level demonic beasts.

I don't know if the gods have imprisoned this race against the sky, the earthly dragons of the cursed land cannot leave the cursed land for half a step, even if they are forcibly taken out of the cursed land by humans, these strong earthly dragons will not live for three days.

The Kingdom of Chartres was founded more than 1,300 years ago in the city-state of Chartres, under the leadership of the thirteenth generation successor of the city-state of Chartres, Leighton Chartres, who fought in the north and south, destroyed countless countries, and finally established the Kingdom of Chartres, one of the four kingdoms of the present.

At that time, the Kingdom of Chartres could be regarded as the overlord of the Mullan continent, and wherever the army of the Kingdom of Chartres went, it could be said that the battle must be overcome, the attack must be taken, and it is invincible!

However, the kingdom of Chartres on the continent has begun to decline now, and the king of the kingdom of Chartres this time, Sun Wei Chartres, is even more ambitious and talented, in order to save the decline of the kingdom, he tried to emulate his ancestors and use force to shock his neighbors, but he did not have the eloquence of his ancestors.

First, he sent troops to invade the Kingdom of Orleans from the mountain town of Tulsa in the middle of the Cross Mountains, but was ambushed by the Orleans army in a canyon in the Cross Mountains, and less than 3,000 people of 100,000 troops successfully broke through.

After the Orleans Kingdom hit a wall, King Sun Wei turned to invade the Duchy of Brocknaro located in the Kingdom of Chartres, the Kingdom of Zams, and the Cross Mountains.

The two wars launched by King Sun Wei not only did not open up the territory for the kingdom, but lost the territory, but also made the neighbors see the weak nature of the Chartres Kingdom, and the armies of the countries around the Chartres Kingdom were a little ready to move, trying to get a piece of the declining old kingdom.

After all, it is an ancient country that has been inherited for thousands of years, but its own heritage is quite profound, and in the face of the hungry wolves looking around, the army of the Kingdom of Chartres went all out to finally resist their provocation.

After his defeat in foreign wars, the ambitious King Sun Wei did not want to recuperate, but instead set out to deal with those who held real power but were not very obedient, especially those who had opposed his own kingdom.

The first is that King Sun Wei announced that Marshal Bont Field, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties of the Kingdom of Chartres, the Grand Duke of Finland and the Sword Saint, was temporarily detained by the Soldiers and Horses Division on suspicion of treason and defection to the enemy, and the second was that Marshal Bont Field led the Third Guards Division to besiege the royal palace.

In fact, before starting to arrest Bont Field, in order to prevent Bonth's counterattack, King Sun Wei had already dismissed the commander of the Bont Guards Corps for some reason, and at the same time, the first and second divisions under the four divisions of the Guards Corps, two divisions that were more heavily influenced by Bonthe, were transferred out of Chartres, and the officers of the other two divisions and regiments above the commander of the commander were either transferred or directly dismissed, and they were all rotated.

Who knew that as a veteran of the Three Dynasties, the influence of the Archduke Bont Feld in the army had penetrated into the hearts of the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level, and the 3rd Guards Division stationed in the city was all turned against by Bont Field, except for the division commander and a few officers above the commander of a thousand commanders.
