Van Rier's capital, the White City.

The Temple of Freedom.

This is the political center of the Flame Nation and the center of the Flame Nation. But now, everyone walking through the palace was worried, some trotting through the corridors with a large pile of papers in their arms, others talking in whispers, and there was a thick and uneasy atmosphere in the air.

Even in the hallways, you can faintly hear the noisy quarrels in the council.

"It's a nightmare!!"

A councillor slapped the table so hard that he even slapped his own hands red without noticing.

"Fifty thousand troops!! 50,000 troops!! There are less than thirty survivors!! How do you tell us to explain to the people? General Duke?! Tell me, what the hell is going on! It's just to encircle and suppress a group of demonic beasts, and the 50,000-strong army is wiped out? Am I dreaming? Or are you dreaming? ”

Not only him, but most of the parliamentarians present were pale, not only because the 50,000 army was wiped out, but also because among the 50,000 army, there were many noble children.

After all, the Flame Nation is also about seniority and merit, and at this time in the moment, there is no war in the entire continent. Therefore, in order to make meritorious achievements, many families have sent their heirs to this army to rub off on their merits, so as to add a strong stroke to their resumes.

After all, it is rare to develop an unexplored land, which is why the Flame Nation was able to dispatch an army of 50,000 this time. It's really because all parties want to get a piece of the pie from this operation, and with the encirclement and suppression of Warcraft, it doesn't seem to be much dangerous, so many families have sent their future stars or valued successors over.

But what they didn't expect was that this army was almost completely wiped out! Less than thirty people survived, most of them were mages, and a few were nobles who were timid and afraid of death, and wore teleportation props before leaving.

And the others, all killed!!

In the face of the parliamentarian's questioning, General Duke's face was also unpleasant, after all, he was the one who put forward the proposal to eliminate the insect nest and completely occupy the unexplored land, and now that such a big thing has happened, someone must be responsible for taking the blame. Families who have lost their heirs and heirs will not let him go, and the people who have lost their children and husbands will probably tear him to pieces.

That's an army of 50,000!

Since the establishment of the Flame Nation, there has never been a situation where the entire legion has been completely wiped out!

"It's not all my responsibility!!"

General Duke was not going to sit still, and if he didn't say anything, then in a few moments the council would send him directly to court-martial. No need to ask, the ending must be to pull himself out and hang himself to calm the anger of the people, but he doesn't want to carry this pot!!

"This decision was made by the council, and the councillors have read the front-line report in detail before this, at that time, we have never found that this group of demonic beasts has the ability to burrow into the ground, and we don't know that they still have many populations!"

"Isn't this an intelligence-gathering error?"

"Of course not! We've sent scouts to dig deeper, but to be sure, we've never found these monsters with similar traits! The only explanation is ......... They're hiding their abilities! ”

"Hide your abilities?"

Hearing General Duke's explanation, another congressman laughed angrily.

"So General Duke, do you want to say that those demonic beasts have the same intelligence as us humans, and they are deliberately showing weakness, luring us deep into the hinterland, and then annihilating us in one fell swoop?"

"Isn't it?"

At this time, General Duke was also out of the way.

"What does it mean that the soldiers on the front line have fought these monsters so many times, but have never found out that they have the ability to lurk and burrow into the ground? This shows that these monsters have high intelligence and collective combat ability! They are deliberately paralyzing us! If, in the middle of a battle, we find any of them capable of doing so, we will be vigilant! ”

"Then if they are really wise, according to what you said, why would they go out of their way to die?"

Another congressman also raised his own question, and General Duke gritted his teeth.

"I suspect that maybe these monsters have a ruler who will complete whatever task they give orders......... In fact, if we think of these monsters as humans, then what we encounter is a perfect ambush!! ”

Although General Duke tried his best to defend himself, the members of parliament present showed disapproving expressions, which is also a common disease of human beings, and it is easy for them to judge affairs from their appearances. If they look like humans, then they may think that the other person has the same intelligence as themselves, but like the Zerg, it seems to be very ......... What kind of species, they will never think that the other party has the same intelligence as themselves.

It's absolutely impossible! They're just monsters, monsters, and at best cunning monsters!!

They will never be on an equal footing with us humans!!

"Well, now it's not about that."

Seeing that this meeting was about to turn into a quarrel between each other, the president of the council also picked up the hammer at hand and knocked it.

"The next most important question for us is, how do we deal with those monsters? According to the Scout's report, there are now hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts entrenched in the frontier areas of the unexplored lands beyond the northern border, and if they rush into Van Riel, how can we resist them? ”

“…………………”

As soon as they heard this, the faces of everyone present became solemn, hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts! At that time, they all gasped when they saw the image of the border through the magic crystal. You must know that because there is only the Flame Country on this continent, and there are no other countries bordering it, the Flame Country basically does not build any defenses on the border, at most it builds some walls in several cities.

However, if these hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts went directly into the Flame Country, then they would be finished!

Where did these damn monsters come from?!

"There's another very important question."

As if he didn't intend to make everyone feel better, the Speaker looked at them coldly with half-closed eyes.

"About the adult......... How do we report it? ”

“……………………”

Hearing this, many councillors' faces suddenly changed drastically, and they looked at each other, completely speechless for a while.

After "Dragon Slayer" Kara was killed by Black Katy, the prestige of the Fire Nation plummeted, and most importantly, the Fire Nation lost their Patronus, which is a very dangerous sign. In the past, because of Kara's existence, the interior of the Fire Nation was quite stable, but now, Kara is dead, and some forces within it have naturally begun to move.

In this case, the Flame Nation had to spend a lot of money to contact the Red Dragons, and was supported by the genius new stars of the Red Dragons. According to the idea of the Flame Nation, with a red dragon in charge, you should be able to sit back and relax. And even if someone wants to fight the idea of this red dragon, it is equivalent to fighting the entire red dragon clan, and in this situation, even the enemy will not dare to act because of the rat trap.

But no one thought that there were unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and this red dragon was actually killed directly in the first battle when it was supposed to show off its might and show its strength!

Now it's a problem!

How are they going to explain this to the Red Dragons? Could it be that the red dragon was killed by a group of demonic beasts?

Just kidding, they dare to say it, then the other party has to be willing to believe it!!

Besides, even if the other party believes it after taking a hundred steps back, after the Red Dragon Clan destroys the demonic beasts, they will definitely turn around and find trouble in the Flame Country!

So the death of the son of the red dragon has been pressed by the council all the time, and he didn't dare to say it, and now it seems that ......... If you can hide it for a day, it's a day.

"I have a solution!!"

At this moment, one of the young councillors seemed to think of something, and with a twinkle in his eyes, he stood up. He pressed his hands on the table and looked around at the crowd.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this unexplored land used to be the land of chaos, and those monsters were also demonic beasts of the land of chaos, right?"

"This ......... That's right, so what? ”

Listening to the young parliamentarian say this kind of thing that everyone knows, everyone here is a little confused, and they don't know which one is singing. Looking at everyone's puzzled expressions, the young councillor smiled slightly.

"Since they are demonic beasts, then they are accomplices of chaos and enemies of order, since this is the case......... So why don't we reach out to the temple and let them help us deal with this? ”
