Chapter 272: The Eve of the Storm
Just as Xue Hua was returning in the direction of the Barrier Mountain Range on the King Worm, thousands of miles away in the territory of the Kingdom of Kaijistan, in a True God Cult camp hidden in the desert, Alahan Heilin walked out of his tent in a cold sweat.
"Damn! How did that guy suddenly appear in the royal city of Ensdinger? ”
He muttered to himself with a pale face, and there was a look of palpitations in his eyes.
Just now, he suddenly sensed that the teleportation beacon he had placed on the small station in Ensdinger City had been touched, and at first he thought that those brainless monsters had accidentally touched the alarm, because Ensdinger City had now become a place of death that even he could not set foot in.
Those evil blood poisonous fogs can easily corrode even steel, and if creatures are exposed to evil blood poisonous mist, they will quickly be eroded and transformed into hell monsters, even if they are legendary powerhouses, there is no way to stay in the evil blood demon land for a long time, let alone go deep into the city of Ensdinger, the source of the demon land explosion.
But when he was about to adjust the alarm on the beacon a little so that the demonic beasts and undead monsters in the city would not be so easy to touch it by mistake, he unexpectedly saw Xue Hua's figure from the image transmitted by the alarm!
This can frighten Alahan, now Xue Hua is already an extraordinary-level terrifying existence, if he discovers the true secret of this small station, then their plan will not be implemented at all!
So in a hurry, Arahan directly used the evil pact, and after paying a large amount of money, forcibly closed the teleportation beacon on his side, cutting off all means that could trace the source of the beacon.
And after that, he was still not at ease, and personally rushed back to the desert camp where the beacon was stored, and destroyed the beacon itself.
In this way, Xue Hua certainly lost the clue to continue tracking him, but they also lost the positioning coordinates of Ensdinger City, which was very important to the portal they planned to open in Kartim, and without this, they had to find a way to locate Ensdinger again.
And even more critical than this matter is that Alahan now knows that Xue Hua himself is now in Ensdinger, and it seems that he has penetrated into the core of the city, and it is likely that he is heading for the main altar of the Evil Blood Sacrifice.
Fortunately, once the Evil Blood Ritual was activated, those altars would not have much effect, and even if they were all destroyed, they would not be able to stop the continued spread of the demonic soil at all, otherwise they would probably be in big trouble now.
But even so, Xue Hua's appearance in Ensdinger is definitely not good news, this guy has already ruined too many things for them, and now he has been promoted to the only transcendental-level powerhouse in this world, it can be said that they can't have the power to resist him at all.
Once he learns about their plans, they're doomed!
Those terrible insect swarms will definitely make a comeback as soon as possible, and even if he can incarnate thousands of people with the Clone Technique, he won't be able to stop this mountain of defeat at all!
"Someone! Spread the news to His Majesty Beria right away! ”
Thinking of this terrible result, Alahan was suddenly overwhelmed, and he immediately summoned a True God Cult's subordinate and ordered him to immediately pass the information about Xue Hua's appearance in Endinger back to the palace of Kartim.
Immediately after that, he began to personally inspect the preparations of the True God Cultists in the camp, and the next operation was very important to them, especially in this situation, it can be said that they can only succeed and not fail!
......
The conspiracy of the True God Cult is slowly unfolding, and the situation in the Kingdom of Kegistan is becoming more and more chaotic day by day.
The storm of rumors that swept through the kingdom's towns a few days ago has now begun to be accepted by more and more people in Kagestan, because Hakan II has been saying that he is ill, so the ministers of the kingdom do not know how to refute the rumors.
The oppressive atmosphere in the entire kingdom became more and more solemn, and there seemed to be a strange aura brewing in the air.
Sporadic revolts against the city guards and local lords have erupted in the streets and dark corners, and in some cities the walls of the city guards have even been painted with insulting words such as "lackeys" with foul-smelling filth.
The city guards in each city were already barely maintaining law and order in the city under the difficulties of unpaid salaries and insufficient logistics, but now that they were being made like this, a large number of people were suddenly unwilling to do it.
The city guards were generally selected from the local residents, who naturally did not want to be enemies of their relatives and friends, so the city guards in many towns quickly became empty, and the local sheriffs directly became bare-bones commanders.
Originally, the city guards were to be punished as deserters if they left without permission, but all the city guards in the city were gone, do you still want to be the enemy of the whole city at this time?
As a result, the lords and magistrates of the local towns also fell into an embarrassing situation, first, the rumors in the city were full of rumors and needed to be suppressed and cleared by manpower, and second, there was no one available at hand, this dilemma made the lords everywhere cry bitterly, and they could not imagine it, so they could only send messengers to Kartim, hoping to get help from the kingdom's army.
But how can the kingdom's army have time to take care of them now?
Recently, the cultists of the True God Cult have been like a bunch of hateful gophers who have gnashed their teeth, and as soon as they press down on one side, they have sprang out again, and they have all mastered the 16-character strategic principle of "the enemy advances and retreats, the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and we pursue," and they have simply brought the essence of guerrilla warfare into full play.
The vast territory of Kegistan was a matter of great pride for its people and soldiers, but at the moment, this overly vast desert caused many troubles to the kingdom's army.
The Council's three Guardians in Kagestan and the President of the Khaltim Mage Guild have done their best to help, and Kagestan professionals everywhere have responded to the Guardians' call.
However, the cultists of the True God Cult are too proficient in illusion and deception, and their tactics are very effective in this vast sea of sand, so no matter how hard the army and professionals try, they have never been able to protect the entire border.
The cultists of the True God Cult are attacking a supply convoy in the east today, and tomorrow they will go west to shoot a few arrows into the town, and maybe they will suddenly appear on the refugees' escape route that afternoon and take away a few unlucky refugees......
The Kagestan army, which did not have enough manpower, could only run for its life, and there was no way to deal with these gopher spirits.
In this case, where do they have the extra energy to take care of the internal affairs of the town territory?
No city defenses? Let's make do with it! Isn't it really okay for the nobles in the city to still have personal guards? Let's take those guys out and make them up first?
