Chapter 114: Armistice Declared

Bands of armed men in purple burqas carrying torches walked through the streets, they were the escorts of the three major fleets of Karites, and they were also the more combat-ready beings, because the focus of Kalites was on shipbuilding and maritime trade, so the elite personnel would be inclined to sea power.

As the elite of the Tisiphones marched to attack Calites, and partially blockaded the area north of Hopeland, the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce was emptied.

A group of black-clad crossbow archers set up their guns in the streets, but the landing guards on Calites' side charged quickly with round shields raised.

In the process of charging, although a small number of people were shot down, most of them quickly approached the checkpoint of Tisiphone's defense, and after a knife and axe, Tisiphone's crossbow archers and a small number of gun-wielding guards were immediately cut down and fell in a pool of blood.

The fire flickered, and the blood on the stone brick floor tread on, and the guards of Calites continued on, exhaling hot air in the cold night, and in front of them was the gate of Tisifone's house.

Tisiphone Chamber of Commerce, in the lobby of the main building.

Listening to the sound of shelling and shouting outside, the old man opened his slightly cloudy eyes.

"What do you decide to do now?" He asked his two sons next to him.

At this time, at the headquarters of the Tisiphone Chamber of Commerce, many buildings had been bombarded by shells, some were still on fire, some had collapsed, and there were firefighting and running guards everywhere.

Wick didn't answer, but turned his gaze to Adeley.

Addley leaned back in his chair and tapped his fingers on the table before replying after a moment.

"Karitas's fleet is indeed unexpected, but it is still within our control."

"That master in the organization will make a move, just before Jelder said that he was going to burn the city, giving us a reasonable excuse to interfere."

When Adeley tapped it, the ring on his finger also emitted a faint blue light, and the gem set in the ring had some kind of brilliance flowing inside, as if it was transmitting a message.

With that, he also stood up and picked up the narrow scimitar on the table.

"However, I will also be ready for battle."

"After all, if you want to be the master of Hopeland, you still have to show your strength." Under the short black hair, a bloodthirsty smile is revealed.

As he walked out of the hall, he was followed by two teams of elites on standby in the hall, these two teams of elites were wearing tight soft armor, their bodies were pitch black, and even their heads were wearing black masks with strange red patterns, and they walked extremely fast, like shadows in the firelight and ruins.

Whewβ€”β€”

The scimitar was pulled out of its scabbard, and the cold light was cold, and there were crimson lines on the body of the knife, which seemed to flow faintly like blood in the moonlight.

The walls of Tisiphone's house had long since been blasted open by artillery bombardment, and there were gaps and an influx of purple guards on all sides.

Closely followed by Adley, this group of elites wearing black and red masks were like shadows, quickly and sharply strangling the enemies who entered the Chamber of Commerce, blood splattering.

β€”β€”

At the headquarters of Karitas, Lorain Hill stood on the tower, watching the artillery roar and bombarding the enemy position, and the morale of the chamber of commerce was also greatly boosted, and the enemy was driven out of the wall for a while, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and the huge wind signal above his head slowly dissipated.

After being flanked from the inside and outside, the Nissos team finally decided to retreat, and they broke away to the north and then returned to the defense headquarters.

After seeing the Nissos retreat, Lorain Hill ordered that instead of pursuing, more men should be used to defend against the attack of the Tisiphones, after all, they were the main enemy.

With the guards returning with the fleet, the counterattack of the Karitas headquarters also began, taking advantage of the artillery bombardment, disrupting the opponent's formation, their own cavalry quickly attacked, rushed into the enemy formation, and then the infantry also urgently followed, and the opposite people were entangled, so that the muskets could not exert their power.

The loading of the flintlock pistol requires a relatively stable environment, and at the same time, the accuracy is not high, when the two sides are in close combat, the probability of shooting their own people is very high, so at this time they can't play their own advantages, and they are quickly suppressed. Tisiphone's attacking team was caught in a bitter battle from which it was difficult to escape.

More than half an hour had passed since the ultimatum, and the Helis family, who had not seen the other party for a long time, had gradually spread camellias over the city, like clouds like a sea of yellow flowers, emitting a scorching and dangerous light.

At this time, not only the neutrals in the city, but even the side of Karites began to worry, but they did not dare to provoke this ally too much, for fear that it would get out of control.

Just as the hour was approaching, the bright yellow camellia began to burn and bloom in the sky, and the atmosphere was filled with a dull and hot atmosphere, and the air in the sky seemed to be distorted, as if looking through a colorless flame.

A pillar of blue light shone from the night sky, and then the pillar of light swept across the sky, and the burning camellia instantly fell from the sky into slag and shattered into pieces.

After going back and forth several times, the night sky that was originally full of flowers suddenly cleared, and somewhere in the city stood a 'giant', with a gray granite-like body, there was a faint blue light flowing, and the huge core of its chest slowly dimmed after radiating the pillar of light, returning to the same color as its body.

A black-robed alchemist stood on the shoulders of the 'giant', and its voice spread throughout the city, aided by supernatural power.

"I am Zenep, an alchemist of the country of Rulna, and I should not have interfered in the internal affairs of Verga, but because the actions of the Helis family would threaten the safety of the residents of the city and themselves, I had to take action."

"Now, in line with the concept of preserving strength and unity within the Seven Kingdoms of Snowflower, I declare an immediate truce between the two sides, and the right and wrong of the matter will be adjudicated by the own alliance guild in the future."

"If either side is still stubborn and does not take the initiative to attack, I will join the other side and punish them."

As the words fell, everyone looked up at the giant golem that was more than a dozen stories high, and for a moment the city fell into a short silence.

"Disgusting, phew!"

One of the captains of Karitas snorted disdainfully after hearing the announcement on the other side.

This seemingly fair word is not at all just, why did he not say a word when the headquarters of Karitas was about to be captured before, and now the Tisiphone's family is about to die.

What else is the internal ruling of the alliance guild in the future, now it is a clear person who guesses that there is a problem within the alliance guild, and the ruling in the future does not know whether it is a person or a ghost, what if it is discussed between Siphonene and Eubere? At that time, whether the guild that came to adjudicate was still the original guild or not, it is still two words.

If you don't take advantage of the time to knock the Tisiphone's house down, do you have to wait for it to catch its breath and call a helper?

Although everyone was a little dissatisfied, they gradually stopped, just like the enemy, and both sides were waiting for the decisions and orders of their respective masters.

Thank you for your support and tips, and I'll put together a thank you list later.

There will also be a chapter in the evening.
