Chapter 190: Changes in the Battle Situation

From the Elven King's point of view, the war between the Cregans and the Erathian Empire was a good thing for the Elven Kingdom.

For the so-called ally of the Erathia Empire, the Elven Kingdom has long had enough.

What's more, the two countries were not friendly neighbors in the first place, and the war between the two countries went on intermittently for hundreds of years for the sake of Hammondal.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the two countries are feuding.

And from a strategic point of view, after the three countries of the Holy Alliance help the Elven Kingdom recover Diya according to the agreement, the former ally of the Erathia Empire will become the biggest stumbling block to the further expansion of the Elven Kingdom.

With such factors, the Elven King certainly hopes that the Erathian Empire will be as weak as possible.

In fact, the greatest significance of the Holy Alliance for the Elven Kingdom now is to help the Elven Kingdom recover Diya.

As for the recovery of Diya, the Holy Alliance still exists, and it does not mean much in the eyes of the Elf King.

By defending Hammondale and the road leading from Dia's western border to the Erathian Empire and the Tytalia region, the Elven Kingdom will be able to complete its goal of closing off the country and keeping the enemy out of its homeland.

At that time, if the Elven Kingdom wants to continue to expand, it can only attack the Erathia Empire and Titalia.

So now that the war between the Erathia Empire and the Ofer Kingdom is happening, the Elf King is still very happy to see it, he doesn't take advantage of the fire to rob but just claps his hands and says that he is already very merciful, how can he still help the Erathian Empire against the Kregans?

He was quite looking forward to the performance of the Kregans, and the Kregans did not live up to his expectations, and they were unusually on the eastern border of the Erathia Empire, and they fought well, which made the Erathian Empire suffer a lot, and even Catherine's little girl almost died.

After receiving Catherine's request, the Elven King hesitated before deciding to send a small force symbolically, and this force did not set out immediately, but joined the battle at the right time, depending on the development of the battle.

For this reason, the elven king made an excuse for himself - for a period of time, the necromancers of Diya began to move again, for the safety of their own country and the safety of the Holy Alliance, the elven kingdom is now fully guarding against necromancers, and has no energy and extra troops to help the Erathia Empire.

It's not a clever excuse, but it's reasonable, and the necromancers have been doing something unusual for a while, so there's no need to use the ready-made excuse.

In fact, there is another reason why the two countries do not want to join the war, and that is the alarmism of Empress Catherine.

The Kregans want to destroy the world? Project Doomblade? Can a single weapon destroy the world? The Immortal King and the Elven King were rather dismissive of this claim.

And the world is ruined, and the Krigan themselves are finished, and the Krigan are not fools, how could they do such a thing?

They felt that Empress Catherine must be a little unconscious in her desire to avenge her husband, which is why they had such a ridiculous idea, and therefore unexpectedly lost to the Kerrigans, who have always been tactically bitter on the battlefield.

Catherine's request for the two countries to send troops for such a reason was a bit difficult for both the Immortal King and the Elven King to accept.

The prevarication between the two countries made Empress Catherine very angry, but she was helpless.

Today's Erathia Empire is no longer the Erathia Empire that can be proud of the world in the past, it is normal for such a situation to occur, in this world, there has never been a shortage of icing on the cake, but there are few people who send charcoal in the snow.

However, these are not the reasons for the change in the situation of the war between the Erathia Empire and the Ofer Kingdom, what really changes the situation of the war is a new force.

This force calls itself the Elemental Race.

The sudden appearance of this force on the continent of Erathia is quite strange, and their army is made up of a large number of elemental creatures and some strange creatures that have never been known before.

What is a great headache for Empress Catherine is that these eccentric fellows who call themselves elementals are simply a bunch of arrogant guys who go their own way and don't dump anyone, doing what they think is right, fighting the Krigan everywhere, completely ignoring how much trouble their actions will cause to the Erathian Empire, and how much damage they will cause to the environment in the warring area.

As soon as they appeared, they fought a series of battles with the Cregans, not only in Hammondal, but also on the eastern frontier of the Erathian Empire, in the wastelands of Baildus, and even on the borders of Ofer.

At the same time, they began to establish their base in the places they saw fit - unique but sturdy elemental castles.

I don't know what magical method these elemental creatures used, but in just a few days, they have built several such elemental castles in various places, some of these castles are located on the eastern border of the empire, some are located in Baildes, and one is built in the wild of Harmonydale, which is far away from Jian Chen's Harmondale Castle.

This disregard for the sovereignty of the Empire certainly made all the Imperial Captains feel quite indignant, and Empress Catherine was also angry enough.

Because of the appearance of these elemental clans, many of Empress Catherine's strategic plans were completely disrupted, and even her operation to get the Hammondale defenders to conquer Chen Jian and try to rescue Mrak had to be suspended.

Today's Hammondale area, almost half of the world has become the world of the elemental race, the elemental castle they established in Hammondale is just between Hammondale City and Fort Werning, their strong forces make the defenders of Fort Wernings dare not act rashly, after all, the origin of these guys is not clear to everyone, although they are now at war with the Kerrigans, and they have not shown much hostility to the Empire, but no one can guarantee that they will not suddenly attack other countries or forces.

Empress Catherine tried to send emissaries to get in touch with the uninvited guests and find out their true intentions, but without exception, the emissaries were brutally driven back by the elemental creatures before they could get close to the Elemental Castle.

At the same time, she also urged the domestic army to rush to support the eastern defense line, and at the same time ordered General Kendall, who was originally guarding Standwick City, to form another army and rush to Hammondale to reinforce the local emperor * team and take over the defense, ensuring that Hammondale would not be lost due to the appearance of the elemental clan and the betrayal of Jian Chen.

However, the sudden appearance of these elemental creatures also brought certain benefits to the Empire, and the Kerrigan army was caught off guard by these elemental creatures, suffered heavy losses, and had to retreat some distance, so that the Imperial defenders on the eastern border breathed a sigh of relief, and had time to rebuild their defenses and regroup.

This made Empress Catherine a little glad in her anger.

The Krigan were not so lucky, and as soon as the elementals appeared, they showed strong hostility towards them, and they fought without saying anything, and all the plans of the Krigan were messed up by them.

Salx fought hard for a long time, but finally failed to recapture the Fire God Sword from the hands of those elementals, but instead caused the Holy Demon Legion to suffer the heaviest loss since its establishment, under the siege of countless elemental soldiers, although they successfully fought a bloody way to escape back to Baildus, but the number of nearly a thousand Holy Demon Legion soldiers fell on the land of Hammondal.

If it weren't for the fact that Salx himself was seriously injured, if it weren't for the fact that Zeda, who was fighting against the Emperor * team on the other side, also sent back the news that he was attacked by the elemental clan and suffered heavy casualties, which proved the strength of the enemy, if it weren't for the fact that even the Older Native was suddenly attacked by the enemy, which proved that the enemy was elusive, the enraged Serren almost didn't kill Salx, who had lost the whereabouts of the Vulcan Sword, on the spot.

"Serren-sama, they just popped out of all around us like that! We didn't even find out how they appeared! After treating his injuries with magic, Salke, who was still very weak, cautiously reported his fate to Serren, "There are too many of them, each of our warriors has to face the siege of several enemies at the same time, but judging from the situation at the time, they don't seem to have anything to do with the Erathia Empire, I heard that the leading magma elemental man threatened Jian Chen, and Jian Chen was forced to hand over the Vulcan Sword to them!" ”

After listening to Salx's story, Serren frowned: "You mean that after that Chen Jian was threatened, he had to hand over the Vulcan Sword in exchange for his own chance to live?" ”

Salx nodded, "Yes, Lord Serren, and at that time, Jian Chen was also quite shocked by the appearance of these elemental people, so I concluded that the elemental clan has nothing to do with the Erathian Empire!" ”

With a snap, Serren slapped Salx in the face, knocking the badly injured demon to the ground: "Are you an idiot?" Then why didn't you threaten that timid human with death like those elementals did earlier? He can hand over the Vulcan Sword to the Elementals when his life is threatened, and of course he can hand it over to us in the same situation! What exactly were you doing? You've really disappointed me! You still have the face to come back to me! ”

"Serren-sama, it's not what you think!" Salx struggled to his feet on the ground as he defended himself, "As soon as I found out that the Vulcan Sword was in Jian Chen's hand and was about to snatch it, the Elemental Clan suddenly appeared! I simply don't have time! ”

With that, Salx finally stood up: "Lord Serren, please give me another chance, this time I will definitely succeed, the Vulcan Sword is still in Hammondal, in the hands of that magma elemental, they have built a strange castle in Hammondal, I am willing to lead an army to capture this castle, take the Vulcan Sword back from the hands of the enemy and deliver it to you personally!" ”
