A group of richly dressed men stood in a daze in front of the smoke-filled ruins, which seemed to have once been a grand castle, but now reduced to a ruin of tiles, leaving only a pile of shattered stones and foundations in place.
"Your Majesty, are all the giants telling the truth? Are we going to do what they say? ”
A fat man dressed in aristocratic robes walked out of the queue, a look of incredible shock still remaining on his stiff face.
King Ragnar, who was surrounded by all the nobles, smiled bitterly, pointed to the ruins in front of him and the palace maids and royal guards who were driven out around him, and said helplessly.
"My palace has become like this, who can have such divine power except those who are demigods.
Since it has been proved that they are oracles, it also means that our behavior of not submitting the tax on time has annoyed those powerful demigod warriors, whose leaders have sent such powerful warriors to warn us, and now they have made such severe punishments, if we are obsessed, I am afraid that the end will not be good. ”
"But Your Majesty, you know where we are now."
The fat man was in a hurry, as the finance minister of the Nord Kingdom, he was quite aware of what kind of posture the Nord Kingdom was in now.
"Let's not say that we didn't pay the papal tithes in order to accumulate supplies in preparation for war, and if we really pay three times as much supplies and steel to the oracle after the winter according to the punishment of the oracle, I am afraid that it will exhaust the treasury of money, and it will still not be enough!
Not to mention the need to hand over the criminals from all over the country, and then it is also necessary to provide more than 1,000 warriors with a height of more than two brave and good fighters, just enough for more than 1,000 people, it is necessary to pull up a lot of nobles to make up the number.
Your Majesty! If the Nord Kingdom admits the punishment, I am afraid that we will be set back by ten years both economically and manpower, unless ten years later, after the next generation of warriors grows up, we will have enough warriors to fill the army. ”
"What can we do if we don't admit punishment!"
King Ragnar's eyes were blank, his face was pale, and his yellow beard drooped on his face, and he had lost his previous spirit.
"When the Divine Envoy destroyed the castle just now, you also saw that we couldn't stop the Divine Envoy's actions at all, and what else could the Nord Kingdom do except admit punishment?
If we are to blame, it is to blame that we did not pay taxes to the Holy See on time, which led to this punishment. ”
"But Your Majesty!"
A nobleman next to him knelt down and wept bitterly in the icy and snowy environment, and was overwhelmed with grief.
"That's the Holy See's fault, they didn't tell us that this is a tithe paid to the kingdom of God! Let's go to Archbishop Nord and ask him to intercede with the oracle, if he admits punishment, the vitality of the Nord Kingdom will be greatly damaged!
Not to mention the war, I'm afraid that in the next ten years, the Nord Kingdom will have to retreat within the territory to recuperate. ”
"Needless to say."
King Ragnar made a move in line with his identity at this time, and he immediately decided.
"Now the Nord Kingdom suspends all acts of war, and the materials and criminals from all over the country must meet the conditions of the divine envoy's punishment, and the nobles of the Nord Kingdom must also unite and donate materials according to the size of the title and territory, which is related to the survival of the Nord Kingdom, if there is anyone who does not do it, his noble status will be revoked, and his family territory will be recovered, and the Minister of Finance and the Minister of War will be handed over to the Minister of Finance and the Minister of War at this time.
As for the 1,000 warriors with a height of two meters, my eldest son and a lot of Nord royal guards meet this condition, I will personally count them into this thousand, so that I can make up more than 200 people, and the rest of the warriors I will recruit warriors from all over the country to make up the number, I believe that there are many warriors who will be willing to fight side by side with the demigods in the starry sky for the god emperor, as for the shortage after that, let the nobles find a way to make it together, this matter is related to the life and death of the Nord Kingdom, and no nobleman can postpone it!
As for the Foreign Secretary's offer of intercession, we can prepare it and let the Emperor's servants intercede when the Divine Envoy comes, and if it can be successful, it will be fine if it is not hindered. Anyway, get everything ready.
Moreover, the Nord kingdom is punished, and the other three kingdoms that are also preparing for war, I don't believe that they will not be punished. ”
At this, a treacherous smile appeared on the face of the Ragnar Kingdom, and he turned his head to look at the nobles surrounding him and chuckled.
"Everyone, from another point of view, maybe this is still a good thing, if we work hard, maybe the Nord Kingdom can get in touch with those demigod warriors of the God Emperor, and maybe we can get rewards from the God Kingdom in the future."
King Ragnar was right, in addition to the Nord Kingdom, the other three kingdoms that were sharpening their knives and preparing to launch a big war in the season after winter and early summer also encountered warnings from demigod warriors, but those demigods who went out on missions were some hairy recruits, and when they went out on missions, they all directly took the Thunderhawk gunboat and directly landed in the palace, scaring those turtle kings and nobles half to death.
After a flurry of punches and kicks, the three bruised-faced kings quickly recognized the facts, wept bitterly and repented of their sins under the iron fist of the god as big as a clay pot, and at the same time prepared three times the tithes and the criminals of the country, and a thousand of the most valiant warriors in the land, ready to atone for the sins of their kingdom before the end of the winter.
Therefore, under the surprise attack of the four teams of interstellar soldiers, the war preparations of the four kingdoms of Calradia also had to stop, and all the prepared materials were used for other purposes to pay tithes, and the army that had been gathered began to conduct winter competitions, preparing to screen out a thousand warriors who met the conditions of the divine messenger among the warriors in the country.
On the other hand, the bandits and robbers on the Calradia Plains were unlucky, and countless cavalry riding giant wolves roared in the wind and snow, carrying countless hungry wolves, and began a sweep.
In front of these killers, there are only some bandits with leather armor and broken knives and axes, how can they fight with them, the vast majority of them were blinded by the sudden attack, and they were all captured by surprise, and a very small number of unknown guys were also fed to the wolves, and they were obedient one by two.
At this time, the sweeping operation was unprecedented, not only cleared the bandits on the Calradia Plain in one fell swoop, but also some caravans that wanted money and did not want to die also shrank in the town, not daring to trade, who knows if the cavalry riding the giant wolf would capture them all when they met them.
At the same time, in addition to sweeping up the bandits and robbers, Captain Timo also packed up all the refugees who fled everywhere and transported them back to the Calradia Training Canyon by transport plane, together with their families who were captured by those lords and dukes, they all sent the Night Watch and the Wolf Tooth Guard to pick them up, as for the process of pick-up, he took away many urban poor, that is another matter, Captain Teemo in order to complete the goal of 100,000 people, but regardless of the wails and threats of these mortal nobles.
As the saying goes, with a hammer, everyone looks like a nail, and the same is true, Captain Teemo, who will do anything to complete the task, will not pay attention to these guys who eat human flesh and drink human blood, and his mercy will only be released to innocent mortals.
