Chapter 847: The End Returns
Chapter 847: The End Returns
The battle of Arissanret lasted thirteen days, and the winter of the year was finally over, and the "spring" day of the new year had arrived, but this "spring" day did not seem so rosy to many Erathians. (Keep our iAZaiL in mind.)
Because it was found that even with the leadership of the "empress" Catherine, the war between the Erathian Empire and the so-called Entagre Empire, which dared to advocate racial equality, still had no "color", and the once powerful Erathian army once again disappointed people, because they still failed to eliminate these nasty enemies, and even the intelligence seemed to have become even worse.
Rumors of all kinds began to circulate around the empire.
There is news that the Erathian army has been locked in a bitter battle at Arissanret, there is also news that Arissanret is about to be lost, and there is also news that the Entagrean army has taken advantage of Dowkrud from the western border of the empire and has captured several cities in succession, and the eastern border is also said to be under attack by the Ntagrean army.
There are other rumors such as the southern waters of the empire have also found traces of the Entagre army fleet, the Entagri army has used the magic teleportation "door" to build a secret fortress in the hinterland of the empire, the Entagri empire has joined forces with the "spirit" kingdom and the Bracada kingdom, ready to fight together against the alliance of the Enloth Empire and the Erathia Empire, in short, none of them are good.
There are even rumors that Queen Catherine was killed in the battle of Arissanret, but not many people would like to believe this rumor.
However, there is another rumor that makes many Erathians very uneasy, that is the rumor about the Enlos Empire, the specific Enlos Empire actually has no intention of forming a real alliance with the Erathia Empire, the Enlos Empire is actually fighting the idea of annexing the Erathia Empire, and it is said that Catherine's "Empress" is also aware of this, but because she was "forced" to abdicate and was dissatisfied, coupled with her status as the queen of the Enlos Empire, the "Empress" is actually in favor of this matter.
This is, of course, an unconfirmed rumor, but this rumor is well-known and seems to be quite credible.
All of a sudden, because of these "messes", some of which have been confirmed, and some of which are not true or false, people in all parts of the Erathia Empire are panicking.
Then even God didn't seem to want to make the Erathians feel better, just after the "spring", the winter snow in some places had not completely melted, and the warm sun of the "spring" day hid in the thick clouds again, and one after another heavy rain began to pour on the head and head in the center of the empire.
This unusual weather, in the eyes of the people of Erathia, is a very ominous omen.
However, there are always people who are happy and some people who are sad, and this continuous rain is unlucky in the eyes of the Erathians, but it is a good thing in the eyes of some.
For example, some people hope that the rain will be extended a little more, because in this way, it may be possible to delay the offensive of the Ntagrei army on the border, but it is disappointing that so far, the rain has not further expanded, and many areas on the border are still "bright" and sunny.
Glalando, a merchant who lives in the imperial capital of Standwick, is also secretly overjoyed by the continuous heavy rain.
Because of this kind of weather, it is really convenient for him to secretly carry out some things that are not humane.
The ordinary-looking, stocky Grando was not a native of Standwick, but an out-of-town businessman who had only started his business in Standwick a few years earlier and had settled in the city for convenience.
On the surface, Grando is a businessman who does grain business, and in the past few years, he has also "made" a lot of friends in Standwick City, and many people know that Grando's business is average, but he is very generous, and he is very happy to spend money, and he is polite to others, so he has made some friends.
But none of them knew that Grandor was not actually a businessman, and his true identity was that of the Skynet spy of the Entagri Empire.
Grando is one of the earliest members of Skynet, before Jian Chen left Harmondale to go to the Evermont Islands, he had already begun to lay out, released some Skynet members, lurked in various parts of the Erathian Empire, and created the earliest Skynet spy network, and Grando arrived in Standwick City at that time.
After several years of operation, Grandor has been very successful in taking root in Standwick City, and has become the big leader of Skynet in the local area, he came early, at that time even the Harmondale Race Alliance had not yet appeared, and Chen Jian was just a defected little lord in the eyes of the people of the time, so no one had any doubts about his identity, and no one would have thought that he would become a spy leader of the emerging empire in Standwick City a few years later.
Heavy rain, coupled with the recent period of material shortages caused by the recession, many commercial "trade" in Standwick City have been suspended, but merchants seek profits, some merchants are still busy in this weather, Grando is also one of these merchants, food, no matter when, how bad the weather is, people always have to eat, business still has to do, so on this day, early in the morning, Granddo went out in the rain.
Of course, being busy with business is just a pretense, and Grando is busy with an important task that has been "handed over" by the above.
This is a very important task, and Granddo knows that if he completes this task on his own, his name will also leave a strong mark on the history books of the Entagri Empire.
This mission is to respond to the surprise attack of the Ntagree army on Standwick City.
The surprise attack on Standwick City is also a part of Moriel's entire plan, but due to its huge risky "nature", it was only used as a backup plan and was not implemented immediately, Moriel's plan was to further attack Catherine's prestige in the Erathian Empire by surprise attack on Standwick, and use this to "confuse" and "mess" the situation in the Erathian Empire.
In the last war, the Negan Lord coalition army attacked Standwick by surprise, and as soon as the war began, the Erathian Empire fell into a "chaos" and "chaos", and Morrill just repeated the old trick this time.
Although this is only a backup plan, of course, the preliminary preparation work must be done well, such as the setting of the exit of the magic teleportation "door", etc., otherwise it will be a big deal if it is needed but cannot be implemented immediately.
And the specific "operation" of these tasks in Standwick, of course, fell to Grando.
Granddo was quite excited about this, after all, not everyone could personally participate in such a shocking plan, and every time he thought of this, Grando's blood boiled all over his body.
He rode out of the city in the pouring rain.
According to the above requirements, the exit of the magic teleportation "door" should not be set too close to Standwick, because it is easy to be counterattacked by the defenders during the teleportation, but it must not be too far away from Standwick City, otherwise the attack will lose its sudden "nature".
The final exit was set in a small town near Standwick City, which had no garrisons, no Elassian army camps nearby, and was surrounded by plain terrain, making it an ideal teleportation location.
Such a small town, of course, has long been in Skynet's sight, so as early as two years ago, Grandor built a manor on the edge of this town, ostensibly as a stopover and temporary warehouse for his caravan, but secretly for emergencies.
For such a manor, of course, the basement is indispensable, and Grando has set the exit in the basement according to the requirements of the above, so he must re-widen the basement, and the secret exit to the field must also be re-widened, otherwise it will not be enough for the army and the dragon to enter and exit, and now this secret project has entered the end, with heavy rain as a cover, and the project at the exit of the field is also going well, all this is going on in an unknown way.
In order not to arouse suspicion, Grando did not dare to live in that manor all the time, but today he had to go, because the magic scroll used to set the exit had already been delivered yesterday, and there could be no mistake in such an important matter, so he decided to supervise it himself.
Grandor walked for half a day, and finally walked half the way, no way, the road was muddy in the rain, which made Granddo a little anxious, he hesitated whether to leave the road and walk straight from the field to the town, otherwise, he was afraid that he would only arrive at his destination when it was dark.
As a veteran member of Skynet, Grande was "sexual" and resolute, so he didn't hesitate for too long and left the road.
The wilderness is also difficult to walk, it has rained all these days, and it is muddy everywhere, but Grando doesn't care, and the road is not much better anyway.
There was a lot of rain and fog between the sky and the earth, and his vision was very poor, but Grandor was very experienced, and he was sure that he had not deviated from the right direction, because after walking for a while, he saw a sparse grove in front of him.
Walk through the grove and keep going, and if it goes well, maybe he won't have to get to the town without getting dark.
Grando's mood began to change again, and his thoughts began to drift to several battlefields far away on the border of the Empire.
I didn't expect the Entagri Empire to have such a day, thinking about everything that has happened recently, and then thinking about his hard work in the past few years, Grandor is a little embarrassed.
Just as he was sighing, he suddenly noticed that something seemed to be wrong in front of him.
He didn't know if he was "dazzled", but through the heavy rain curtain, he just seemed to see a figure faintly flashing in front of him.
Is it really just a dazzle?
Grando's nerves tensed all over his body, and he pulled the reins in his left hand to slow down the horse's already slow speed, and with his right hand put away the whip, he instead held down a short sword hidden under the saddle.
He sensed danger, and although he didn't know if it was an illusion, he had always been careful as a secret agent.
"Is anyone there?" He shouted and asked, but there was no reply, and there was no sound in heaven and earth except the sound of rain and the snort of the horses under him.
"Is anyone there? Who's where? He asked aloud again, a pair of eyes searching around him, but there was nothing but a few trees swaying in the wind and rain as far as he could see.
He took a few steps forward on his horse, slowly approaching the place where he had just seen a figure flashing, but still found nothing.
Is it really a mistake? Grandor was shocked.
At this moment, there was a sudden "boom" sound not far away.
Before he could react to what the sound was, he only had time to turn his head when he saw a green object, which had already broken through the heavy rain curtain with this ominous sound, and "shot" at his "door" with lightning speed.
Grando wanted to flash, but it was too late, his head was only slightly off, and the green object had already hit him.
Grando fell off his horse.
Before he could take his last breath, he finally saw the object that had struck his forehead, it was an emerald green feathered arrow.
This kind of feather arrow is only used by one kind of creature on the continent of Erathia, and that creature is the "spirit" spirit, the "spirit" spirit of the forest known for its archery skills.
But how can there be "spirit" spirits in such a place? This is not the Tulaone Forest, nor the Eremien Forest, but the capital of the Erathian Empire, a suburb of Standwick City!
The instinct of the spy made Granddo realize that this matter was not simple, and it was likely that it was related to a certain military plan of the "Spirit" Spirit Kingdom, which definitely had very important intelligence value, and he should report this matter to the head immediately.
But he didn't have a chance, because by the time he figured it out, he was already a dead man, he was just an ordinary human being, and it was impossible not to die if he was caught in the head by a sharp arrow.
There was another loud bang in the heavy rain, and a green "colored" feathered arrow flew out again, and "shot" Granddo's frightened horse that was about to gallop out to the ground, and the man who shot it was "fine" and the arrow hit the horse's head, so that the poor creature fell motionless in the muddy water after a few steps.
Two arrows instantly took the "life" of a man and a horse.
Then, in the midst of the storm, several figures appeared in front of the dead man and horse.
They were wrapped in a special waterproof cloak with a hood and carried a longbow of astonishing size, and if anyone with experience saw them, they would be surprised to find that these people were dressed in the outfit of the Jungle Guardians, the special "color" class of the Spirit Kingdom.
The Jungle Guardian warriors looked at Grando's body and whispered a "crossover".
"It's strange, there is a magic letter teleportation array on this person's body, it seems that this person's identity is not ordinary! I'll just say, even if ordinary people bump into us by mistake, how can they be so alert and can discover our existence! ”
"Hey, there's a magic scroll! It looks like it's still a very high-level magic scroll! ”
"Show me!" One of the Jungle Guardian warriors took the scroll that had been retrieved from Grando's body, looked carefully at some of the signs outside, and then exclaimed, "The spirit god is above, this is a magic teleportation 'door' scroll!" How could there be such a thing in this man! ”
"What? Damn, what exactly is he? This is so suspicious! You, with the scroll, report it to Lord Gru about it immediately! The others spread out in the direction the man came from to investigate to see if there were any other humans around! ”
With the order of one of the "female" and "elven" spirits, these jungle guardian warriors quickly dispersed and disappeared into the wind and rain.
In the grove, Gru was resting with a small army of jungle guardians of a hundred or so people.
Although the weather was very bad, these elite warriors of the Spirit Kingdom didn't care at all, they just wrapped their cloaks in the muddy water, and fell asleep with their backs against the trunk of the tree, and the wind and rain that people couldn't ignore seemed to them to be completely non-existent.
Gru had wanted the team to rest for a while, it was not far from Standwick City, and he planned to wait until the evening to start the operation, but the news and magic scrolls brought back by the Jungle Guardian warrior made him sleepy.
After taking a closer look at the ornaments on the scrolls, Gru realized that it was a magic scroll made by necromancers.
"People from the Entagri Empire?" Gru didn't have to think about it, he guessed the true identity of the human who was "shot" and killed by his men, and now the realm of the undead is no longer there, and the only one on the continent who still has necromancers and some of their resources is the Ntagri Empire.
This discovery surprised Gru a little, he didn't expect that Jian Chen would be the same as himself, and he would hit Standwick City with the same idea.
"Jian Chen, Jian Chen, it turns out that you also have this plan, but it's a pity, this time I took the lead!" Thinking like this in his heart, Gru softly ordered to stop resting and prepare to act, "This time, you just watch my performance, I will do better than you, and then you will find that it is not you who will destroy the Erathia Empire, but I, Gru!" Half-"spirited" Lingglu! ”
About half a day later, some red and black "colored" magic clouds began to appear in the sky above Standwick, among the already "gloomy" rain clouds.
Then the residents of Standwick City were surprised to find that the heavy rain that had just fallen suddenly stopped, and the abnormal weather made people go outside and look up at the sky.
They look forward to seeing the "bright" sun of "spring".
But what appeared before them was the strange magical clouds that were churning endlessly.
The uninformed people were quite curious about this kind of red and black "colored" magic clouds, and they pointed at it one after another, but the "color" of the knowledgeable people changed like dirt in an instant.
"Doomsday Judgment!" Finally, someone broke out and exclaimed.
Panic spread rapidly throughout the city.
The urgent, alarming bells that represented the enemy attack soon rang throughout the imperial capital, and the defenders of Guffenhardt Castle were also in chaos.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! It's the Last Judgment! It's doomsday magic! "Someone panicked.
"Is it the Ntagrean Army?" Someone was furious.
"Take cover and withdraw all the soldiers on the walls inside the castle!" There are also people who are unusually calm.
But no matter how they responded, it was too late, the magic cloud formed at an alarming speed, and then the red and black rain of fire fell overwhelmingly, enveloping the entire city of Standwick, turning this famous city on the continent into a hell on earth.
Soon after, the defenders of Guffenhardt Castle discovered the terrible fact that the rain of fire had been falling, almost without a pause.
This situation represents only one possibility.
"It's the Blade of Doom...... It turned out to be the Blade of Doom......"
The attackers quickly confirmed the defenders' suspicions with actual actions, and after the attack began for a period of time, thousands of "Spirit" Spirit Clan Silver "Colored" Pegasus Knights, bathed in the boundless rain of fire, fell from the sky like divine soldiers, and smashed into the city of Standwick with great momentum.
