Chapter 681: Civilization
While Rhodes was resting in Viernin, meditating deeply, and later returning to Diya, the war in Bracada did not stop at all.
Led by the hero Tanan, the barbarian army continued to penetrate deep into the territory of Bracada, destroying everything they saw and recorded the mage civilization, no matter how prosperous the mage city was, no matter how prosperous the magic academy was, it could only be destroyed by these barbarian creatures, and in the end only a trace remained.
Among them, even the guidance of the Potions Contest Finals, which had just ended, and the Winter City, which had a long history, was also destroyed in the flames of war.
This situation undoubtedly greatly reduced the morale of all the mages who witnessed the grand event of the academy. Even a spell academy of this level could not resist the attacks of savage creatures, let alone other cities.
With the unique power of the artifact and the support of many savage creatures, Tanan carried the wrath of Krulod for countless years, pouring out the land of Bracada as the battle itself.
After repelling the invaders of Bracada, Tanan did not take this opportunity to complete the integration of Krurod and become the true king of the barbarian realm, but led all the barbarian creatures to launch a counterattack against Bracada, not because Tanan peeked into the territory of the mage, or wanted to conquer the whole of Bracada, what he wanted was just to completely destroy Bracada.
As the barbarian army marched forward, feeling the one-sided battle situation on the frontal battlefield and the spreading flames of war, Tanan's heart did not feel any joy.
Tanan noticed that the barbarian army was passing through more and more empty cities without any creatures, and even if there were still other creatures left in them, most of them were only for the purpose of spying on intelligence, rather than fighting themselves.
Tanan noticed that the rest of the savage creatures were undoubtedly extremely excited about the empty city left behind by the mage, and whether it was to occupy the city or destroy everything in it, they would be satisfied.
But for Tanan, it was far from satisfying. Failing to eliminate those mages who have been doing evil for a long time on the battlefield, failing to destroy the things that carry the mage civilization, and just taking over the empty city left by the mage, naturally cannot make Tanan have any satisfaction.
Seeing that the barbarian creatures under his command wasted a lot of useless time when dealing with these empty cities left behind by the mage, even Tanan was also impatient in his heart, and even his attitude towards his subordinates changed.
Unable to disobey his orders, the savage creatures were unable to disobey his orders, and instead of paying attention to the empty city left behind by the mage, they headed for the deepest part of Bracada.
As the barbarian army advanced, Tanan knew that this situation of mages blindly avoiding battle would soon change.
This time, the area that Tanan chose to attack was the deepest city in Bracada, the true center of the whole Bracada, and it had a very special meaning for all mages.
Through the information collected by his subordinates, as well as his own knowledge of Bracada, Tanan knew that the city he was going to attack was the former capital of the mage god in Bracada who was praised by all mages.
If the existence of the mage god only exists a symbolic meaning for the mages of Bracada, there are still reasons in this city that cannot be easily abandoned by the mages of Bracada.
The headquarters of the Magic Guild exists in this city, and this alone is destined to be a position that cannot be easily given up by mages.
Even during Bracada's golden age, the city was already famous, and the books of the Magic Guild Headquarters contain all the magic that has been explored and improved by mages over the years.
It can be said that in the headquarters of the Magic Guild, the carefully studied mages can even explore the trajectory of the development of Bracada's magic, which even contains all the history of Bracada, and the significance of this location to Bracada is naturally self-evident.
Such an area, which symbolizes the entire Bracada civilization, has been in Tanan's sight since the beginning of this war.
In Tanan's view, the significance of the headquarters of the Magical Guild is obviously more than that, while symbolizing the entire history of Bracada, it also means that Bracada has oppressive rule over the surrounding area, especially the enslavement of the Krulord region.
Because of this, this city has also become the target of Tanan's initial decision to destroy, not only because of the history recorded in the headquarters of the Magic Guild, but more importantly, Tanan wants to complete the revenge of the mage for all the creatures of Krulord.
With such a great level of awareness at the headquarters of the Magic Guild, which could even represent the entire Bracada development trajectory to some extent, Tanan did not think that in this case, the mage would be able to reduce the losses in the war by withdrawing early as before.
Tanan believed that it would not be long before the barbarian army marched at full speed to reach this position, where a real great battle would break out. The outcome of this battle can even determine the course of the entire campaign.
If Tanan can win this battle, he will undoubtedly be able to severely demoralize the mages and make them unable to put up decent resistance, even if the legendary mages can only find another way in advance after seeing the irreversible situation of the entire battle.
Tanan couldn't remember how long it had been since he had encountered decent resistance from a mage in this battle. Whenever the barbarian army arrives, all they see is one empty city after another, and even the mages who stay behind to resist are not capable of fighting in the face of the existence of the forbidden orb.
Throughout the battle, even if he was initially in the territory of Krulord, leading the barbarians against the invading mages for a long time, Tanan did not feel any difficulties, let alone the process that followed.
But at this time, in the face of the possible battle next, Tanan did not dare to relax in any way.
Tanan believed that the previous process had been so smooth because the main decision the mage had made in the process was to give up resistance rather than engage the barbarian army.
Once the mages are ready to start the battle head-on, it only means that they are ready to deal with the barbarian army.
