Chapter 102: War Has Finally Arrived. [Ask for a subscription, commuter pass]
The war came as scheduled.
Li Qiang sat on the top floor of a watchtower, observing the battlefield north of Goth City from afar.
It was the flattest area on the Plains of Faraz.
The eldest prince William is leading a coalition of the Knights of Gaunt and the nobles on the plains of Faras to engage the armies of the Northern Empire in a head-on battle.
This war, under the command of the eldest prince William.
With the Knights of Gaunt as the core, the aristocratic alliance is used as an opportunity to assist in the battle.
A large number of Gaunt mages of the Knights of Gaunt cast blessing spells to bless all the knights of the Knights of Gaunt.
The Knight of Gaunt is blessed with multiple magical blessings, combined with his own unique tactics of pure white wind.
On the battlefield, there was a head-to-head confrontation with the army group.
Li Qiang could confirm through observation that the general of the Northern Empire had never appeared on the battlefield.
Don't know where to hide.
But even without the command of the general.
It can also be seen that Army Group North has overwhelming combat effectiveness.
It's not just that the other side is strong.
The large number of soldiers of the Northern Group Army generally has the strength of the middle rank and above. Moreover, they will use a variety of war machines to assist in warfare.
In the distance, a specially made magic trebuchet was constantly projecting boulders at the troops of the United Kingdom of the South.
Among the members of the Knights of Gunter, there are special observers, and after seeing the boulder flying over, they will direct the team to evacuate quickly and get out of the way.
It can be said that the war was completely dominated by Army Group North.
Why didn't you defend the city?
Li Qiang once asked the eldest prince William such a question.
The eldest prince William showed a rare wry smile.
The eldest prince William sighed a little sadly, and then said to Li Qiang in a serious voice: "It's not that I don't want to rely on the solidity of Goth City to defend against the opponent's attack. ”
"However, the war machine possessed by the Northern Empire is very powerful."
"There are not only special trebuchets, but also a lot of amazing engineering equipment."
"So..."
Speaking of this, the eldest prince William sighed with some sadness once again and stopped talking.
Li Qiang reacted in an instant, if the defense of the city is carried out now, then it can be said that the war has been lost.
Because the United Kingdom of the South, in defending the city, it is impossible to resist the attack of the Northern Empire.
On this issue, Li Qiang privately consulted the knight of Sain.
After hearing Li Qiang's question, Sain also remembered something, and his brows furrowed tightly.
Knight Sain also sighed helplessly, and said to Li Qiang: "There is no way, the last Civil War, if it wasn't for the Primitive Holy See to stop it, our Southern United Kingdom would have long since ceased to exist." ”
Hearing this answer, Li Qiang was also taken aback, he never thought that the Southern United Kingdom, which had the Divine Blood Family, would not be able to withstand the attack of the Northern Empire.
Seeing Li Qiang's shocked expression, Knight Sain also knew what Li Qiang was thinking.
Sain said to Li Qiang: "Lane! The Kami family may be very strong in combat, but it does not mean that the Kami family's war ability is very strong. ”
"Since ancient times, the opponents of the Kami family have always been not humans but demons."
"So, since the birth of the Northern Empire, we have been under tremendous pressure."
Sain seemed to recall the controversy within the family over the Northern Empire.
"We have the men to resist the attacks of the Southern and Northern Empires, but you know that."
"Most of these inhuman beings are guarding the front line of demons, resisting the attacks of demons."
"Therefore, it is impossible to easily use them to resist the attack of the Northern Empire."
"If it is used lightly, then it is likely to lead to the rout of the demon front."
"That's one of the most difficult things we're going through right now."
Speaking of this, Li Qiang's inner doubts became even deeper.
"So what is it about Army Group North that is stronger than us that we can't defend against?"
When Sain heard Li Qiang's question, he patiently explained to Li Qiang: "The group army of the Northern Empire, first of all, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers will generally be stronger than that of our Southern United Kingdom. ”
"In our aristocratic coalition army in the United Kingdom of the South, many of them are even only at the beginning of the combat effectiveness, but in the Northern Army, it can be guaranteed that a large number of front-line soldiers have mid-level combat effectiveness."
"This is just one thing, and the second is that Army Group North also has a very magical war machine."
"Not only are there all kinds of magical trebuchets, engineering hammers, and other weapons, but they can even change the weather, so that night becomes day, and day turns into night."
Sain seemed to recall the cruelty of war, with strong fluctuations in his tone.
"You know, when you are in the middle of the day, and the other side is fighting, suddenly a bright light shines, and the day suddenly turns into night."
"So, can you imagine how much combat power our army has left?"
Speaking of this, the knight of Thane showed a rare self-deprecating expression, shook his head helplessly, and stopped talking.
Li Qiang looked at the silent Sain, and finally understood in his heart.
It turns out that the Northern Empire had such a powerful fighting power?
So, who exactly created these war machines?
Sain saw Li Qiang's doubts, and then explained to him: "Naturally, it's the Sage of the Stars." ”
"Sage of the Stars?"
"Yes, Sage of the Stars. The Sage of the Stars is said to have been the first person to study in the City of Mages. ”
"Later, I don't know why. Exited from the City of Mages. ”
"Because of the bondage of the mage's law unique to the City of Mages. The Sage of the Stars lost all his magic and returned to wander the Northlands of what time he was. ”
"Later, for unknown reasons, he traveled to the Land of Chaos and was taught by a very famous illusionist."
"This illusionist doesn't know what kind of magic he was taught, but in the end, after this star sage returned to the Northland, he successfully became one of the three pillars of the Northern Empire."
"This is one of the pillars of such a powerful Northern Empire!"
Sage of the Stars...
Li Qiang echoed the name of this person in his heart, so it means that its spell is related to the stars?
Looks like if I'm going to the Northlands, I'll need to pay a visit to the Sage of the Stars.
Li Qiang, who was sitting on the watchtower, had already ended the memories in his heart.
Slowly standing up, a portal returned to his bedroom.
This villa is now only Li Qiang left to live in.
Sain was already accompanying Edith to the fortress of Lord.
They will also lead the Norris Legion in a tug-of-war with the Northern Empire on the Plains of Faras.
The reason why Li Qiang stayed in Goth City was not because he was unwilling to go to Lord's Fortress.
But...
Li Qiang tidied up his bags, and after casting illusion magic on himself, he rushed towards the north with a portal.
That's right, Li Qiang is preparing to go to the side of this legendary imperial general to investigate.
