Chapter 455: The Verge

The Duke of Dans and his son knelt on the ground and saluted loudly.

However, Emilys just stared at them, pursing her lips and not making a sound, her eyes glinting dangerously.

The atmosphere around him became more and more tense, and Duke Danse remained motionless and seemed extremely patient, but his son Koster was a little unable to hold his breath and looked up to meet Emilys' gaze. When Coster first saw her as an adult, he was amazed by her beauty, and even more aware of her malice towards himself and his father.

"She's going to kill us!"

Koster was shocked in his heart, and subconsciously stood up on guard, and then saw everyone around Emilys, the first of whom was Wren.

There are also three personal legendary Scaly Guards, both the legendary high-ranking Duke of Fisher and the Prince of Dylan of the Lauberdire family, as well as a number of legends under the command of the two families, who protect Emilys in the middle.

The two wizards that Coster feared the most were the two wizards, one with white hair and the other a High Elf, who were the Speakers from the Floating City of Wezeland, and each of them was as powerful as Wren Augustus. One Wren can seriously injure himself, and he hasn't healed for half a month, and the three speakers are present, and if he dares to do it, he will kill himself.

The terrifying legendary lineup around the Dragonborn made Coster not dare to act rashly at all, so he could only grit his teeth and bow his head.

He had never suffered such humiliation in his life.

Even if his affair with his sister Lina was exposed, he was pointed out by Qianfu, and he was scolded by Marker when he was negotiating, he was not so embarrassed as he was today, kneeling on the road and being watched by so many people, he lost face.

The oppressed silence lasted three minutes.

Duke Danse was still half-kneeling, like a sculpture not moving, but Koster's body began to tremble, his face was red and white, and just when he was about to lose control of himself and want to explode desperately, he heard a tactful but majestic voice:

"Walter, Your Excellency the Commander, get up. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Duke Danse replied loudly, saluting again before standing up.

There was not the slightest fluctuation on his face, calm and waveless, as if it was not himself who had been kneeling on the ground for a few minutes, and respectfully reported: "Your Majesty, the Golden Lion Regiment under the command of the Danse family, two thousand Lionheart Knights and two thousand Transcendent Armies are all in place and are at the disposal of Your Majesty. ”

"Good. Emily's reaction was flat.

She looked at the duke in front of her, known as the "Lion King", with an old face, his hair had long been gone, leaving only a white mane, and it was also trimmed very short, if it wasn't for the tall material, exuding the aura of a legendary beginner, his eyes were bright, he looked like an ordinary old man, not at all like the number two person who had been the former prime minister of the palace for several years, Congatro.

This person is the enemy who keeps her awake at night, one of the culprits in the fall of the Drogon Castle Dynasty, second only to Marke!

Emily finds it difficult to be friendly, even if she acts like a person for the sake of the bigger picture.

There was another silence, and Duke Dans's eyes fluctuated slightly.

Coster is even more numb in the scalp.

He was afraid that this female dragon descendant would kill himself and his father on the spot with an order, and with the strength of the other party, it would be impossible for the two of them to escape.

"Uh-huh......"

Wren broke the silence and said, "Lord Duke and Captain Coster have worked hard. Your Majesty, please give orders on how to arrange the army of the Dans family. ”

He was reminding Emily not to lose her temper anymore.

Emily nodded, and suddenly a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she said lightly: "Ding Laji, the army under Walter's command is under your command, and all actions must be approved by you." Your orders are my orders, you know?"

Her last words were addressed to Duke Danse.

"Listen to my command?" The diminutive Dinglaj came out of the ranks, and seeing that Emilys was not joking, he stubbornly said, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Unexpectedly, Duke Danse did not react in the slightest fierce manner, and responded respectfully: "Obey Your Majesty's orders." ”

"Dario, Minasan, you bring a hundred Scaly Guards with you and follow Din Raji. Emilys gave Duke Danse a deep look and continued to order: "Brinton, you and your two hundred sturgeon warriors will also go with you, don't let me down." ”

"Yes. Several legends answered in unison.

Duke Dans saluted again and retreated outside the Dragonborn army. Under the protection of more than 300 transcendents, Din Raj entered the Danse family's legion and took over the command.

The army marched on.

Emilys gave Din Raj an order through the voice sheet to clear the way for the Golden Lions to clear the way ahead, followed by the two thousand Transcendents of House Danse, and then the Centaur Army.

The Dragonborn army grew to 17,000 when the Danse family joined.

Walking on the avenue, with no end in sight, the inhabitants of the towns and villages passing through saw the smoke and dust raised by the army from afar, and all hid in their homes.

Wren rode on a phantom and said, "You're going too far. ”

"I know. ”

Emilys looked at the Golden Lions in front of her and said in a deep voice, "Since the Dans family wants to submit to me, they must show enough loyalty, what is this humiliation? ”

Wren can understand her state of mind.

Years of blood feud are not so easy to resolve.

No matter how deep the ruler of the city is, he is a person first, and then a politician, and it is really difficult to squeeze out a hypocritical smile unless he is hard-hearted.

Valogen frowned.

"Your Majesty," he advised, "now our greatest enemy is Marke, don't turn the Duke of Danse against us." Hopefully, you'll be able to overcome some, at least until after defeating Malke. ”

"I just can't help it. Emilys snorted, "If they dare to turn against them again, as they did back then, it gives me a good reason to destroy them." ”

"This ......"

Valrogan was very helpless, and could only hope that Dinkraj would take care of the overall situation and not clash with Duke Dans.

Half an hour later.

The walls of the royal capital of Kingsland became clearer and clearer, and a large river blocked the way. Kingsland is built on a river beach, and two of the rivers converge more than ten miles to the west to form a large river, called the Blackwater River, which flows into Dragon's Tooth Bay along the southern wall.

The third river, on the north side of Kingsland, forms a natural moat, known as the North River.

The eastern side of Kingsland is completely close to the sea and has no entrances and exits.

Only on the west side is there the largest main gate, facing the flat river beach, as far as the eye can see. However, between the south gate of the city and the Heishui River, there is a narrow flat land more than two miles wide, there were originally three bridges connecting the north and south on the Heishui River, and a solid stone bridge was facing the south gate, when the dragonborn army arrived at the river, they found that all three bridges were destroyed.

The army stopped on the south bank of the Blackwater River. All right

Wren looked at the head of Kingsland, and the guards above were also looking down on the Dragonborn army, and the Soul Eye saw panicked faces.

In the sky, the Snow Eagle Guards are constantly reconnoitring the movements of the army.

Emilys' voice sheet sounded, and Din Raj asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to cross the Blackwater River?"

She did not make a decision immediately.

"Valogen, what's going on in the city right now?"

Valrogan has secretly woven an intelligence network in Kangartro for many years, and the royal capital Kingsland is the most important core area, and the most manpower and material resources have been invested. He immediately replied: "Your Majesty, it's still the same as yesterday, nothing has changed, Marke decided to defend the city as early as last week, and it hasn't been a move for a long time. ”

Emilys looked up at the three-headed dragon in the sky.

Ever since she entered the realm, she had the dragon scout the heavens, and at this point, Aegon, Galadros, and Sindara had not noticed anything out of the ordinary.

Wren and the two Speakers were questioned, and there was no ambush in the Blackwater River.

So it was decided to cross the river.

The lack of a bridge is not difficult for the dragonborn army, and the wizard group joined forces to cast a spell, and soon froze the surface of the black water river dozens of meters wide, and a solid ice surface 100 meters wide allowed the army to easily cross the turbulent river, and it only took half an hour to reach the opposite bank.

There was a commotion in Kingsland City, and the guards watched as the enemy crossed the river safely.

Emily issued one order after another.

She asked Din Raj to take the army of the Dans family, leave the Dragonborn army, and go to the west of Kingsland to besiege the main gate, while she took the rest of the army and camped in the narrow area at the foot of the southern wall, but the north gate, which was protected by the moat, was released.

This is a typical circumference, not clever but very useful.

The Dragonborn army has blocked the west and south exits of Kingsland, and if Malk finds that he can't hold it and decides to abandon the city and flee, the only way out is in the north. As soon as Mark leaves the city, Wren will summon the Ethereal Gate to intercept it in the north, and will never let the enemy have a chance to escape back into the city.

When Emilys set up the army, there was no reaction in Kingsland, and Marker did not send anyone to interfere.

Both sides understood that this would be a siege battle.

It was getting dark.

The walls of Kingsland lit up with firelight, and the dragon-shaped towers faintly flickered in the night. The red dragon circle formed by these towers is not only on the city wall, but also arranged such bunkers or stone towers throughout the city of Kingsland to ensure the royal capital.

Wren hovered in the pitch-black sky, flanked by Speakers Cadegar and Cleos.

The three of them took advantage of the black to probe the red dragon array.

"It's kind of interesting. ”

Speaker Cleos said with a smile.

Wren glanced at him, the speaker disguised as a High Elf was none other than a powerful red dragon in the prime of life.

But in front of outsiders, Cleos never revealed his connection to the Red Dragon, and in the eyes of the wizards of Wezeland, he was a legendary high-level elven mage, proficient in shaping spells.

Cleos pointed to Kingsland below and said, "I was shocked to hear that the Red Dragon Circle can protect the entire city, and I thought that the ancestors of the Dragonborn family were unfathomable, and it turned out that it was just a trick to arrange such a huge rune array. ”

Wren and Cadegar also nodded, agreeing.

A large magic circle that can protect the whole city, any Imperial wizard will immediately think of the floating city when they hear it, such as the protective shield of Wezeland, the full name is "Vijestri's Arcane Barrier", which is one of the rare ten rings of magic in the world!

As the name suggests, it is a spell created by the goddess of magic herself, and must rely on the vast energy of the "Core of Eola" to sustain it.

The area of Wezeland Floating City is about ten square miles, and Kingsland is dozens of times larger than Wezeland. A protective shield that can envelop the entire Kingsland, the Red Dragon Circle, how many rings of spells is that?

I'm afraid only the goddess of magic can set it up.

Now that I look at it, I know that the red dragon circle can't hold out the protective shield.

It is actually made up of smaller circles, each based on a dragon-shaped bunker or stone tower, each covering an area, and when attacked, it inspires a large area of "Flame Barrier", the equivalent of a six-ring spell, to fend off enemies from the air, while firing "Flame Torrent", "Scorching Ray", and "Fireball" to counterattack.

These are all natural spells that the red dragon is used to.

On the walls of Kingsland, as well as in the city, there are a total of more than 200 red dragon magic circles, and when needed, several nearby magic circles can be opened at the same time, greatly improving defense and sending out more powerful fire spells.

This is a very clever method, as long as the number of red dragon circles is large enough, even the largest cities can be included in the scope of protection.

But it has too many flaws.

The biggest flaw is that the Red Dragon Circle is not a whole, and it cannot open all the magic circles for a long time and block the space in the city.

Enemies simply enter through a portal in an area where the circle is not activated!

Perhaps the ancestors of the Dragonborn family had taken this into account, a portal is just a few people or a dozen people at most, as long as the city gate is guarded and the invading enemies are eliminated, it will not have much impact on the overall situation of defending the city.

Congatro's class system is melee-skewed, and there are no casters who are good at teleporting, so the Red Dragon Circle has been working well.

However, times have changed.

Wren took a closer look at the layout of Kingsland's castle and saw the "Red Dragon Castle" located in the inner city, which was the castle of the historic King Congatro, tall and sturdy, covering an area of hundreds of acres, and was heavily protected by more than a thousand giant deer warriors and many more transcendents.

He remembered the terrain of the Red Dragon Castle and said, "After dawn, I will open the Ethereal Spirit Gate and teleport people to the Red Dragon Castle and kill Markle directly. ”

Cleos nodded in agreement.

"Watch out for that legendary high-level spellcaster. Kaidejia reminded: "Although I don't know who the other party is, I have a hunch that the strength of the other party is definitely not low, and I can't be careless." ”

Naturally, Wren didn't forget, "Then hand it over to the two speakers." ”

"Good. ”

Cadegar and Cleos glanced at each other, cautious and confident.

The three of them teleported back to the barracks, and had just rested for a moment when there was a commotion outside.

Wren got up and watched, a transcendent army with a total of more than three thousand people, approaching the camp under the cover of night, the dragonborn army did not overreact, Emilys had already been notified, this is the Viper Legion and the transcendent army of the Morth family.

After the meeting between the two sides, the armies were united, and the Dragonborn army numbered more than 20,000 men.

In the middle of the night, only the cold wind howled, and the city of Kingsland fell silent, and when the first rays of sunlight returned to the earth, the battle would begin!
