2 The struggle for power is justly extinguished
The terrible name of the dead has disappeared for hundreds of years and has reappeared in the field of vision.
Only this time the undead are even more terrifying.
Even the elven kingdom was easily driven to the brink of destruction by the undead.
Like a hurricane, the spirits of the dead caused a great change in the heavens and the earth, and all countries felt a great crisis.
The Elven Kingdom is not a small country, but a powerful force that has a long heritage and has even unified the existence of the entire continent.
Although it has declined a lot now, the foundation is still deep, and it is many times stronger than all the principalities.
On the mainland, I am afraid that only the Griffin Empire and the Silver City-State can win the Elven Kingdom.
Such a terrible undead makes all countries have a consensus that they must gather troops to encircle and suppress the undead.
Therefore, even if the envoys sent by the Elven Kingdom were arrogant, various countries also sent expeditionary forces to support the Elven Kingdom, even the Evil Wolf Duchy, which was located in the far west.
If you can wipe out the undead in the elven kingdom, it is better than in your own country.
You must know that the undead can convert the killed people into undead, and millions of skeletons can be gathered in the sparsely populated elven kingdom, if it is in a densely populated human country, I am afraid that the development of the undead will be even more terrifying, so it is very necessary to defend the undead outside the country.
In addition, the land polluted by the undead will become dead land, and it will not be able to be cultivated normally for decades, and it will become very difficult to even live in people, which can be said to be very fatal to the world of Yashan, where agriculture is not developed. Without land, there is no food, and people will starve to death.
However, although the emperors of various countries agreed on this, the dispatch of troops ran into problems.
There are no big problems with the arrival of the various principalities. It's just a matter of quantity.
For the Griffin Empire, the world's largest empire, it was difficult to choose.
The Emperor of the Griffon Empire, Santos the Great, is dying of old age and has reached the point of being riddled with disease.
You must know that Santos has been holding the throne for nearly forty years. This is already a lot of time for the Human Emperor.
The eldest of the three princes is in his forties, and the other two are also adults.
They had been suppressed by Santos the Great for too long. Ever since Santos the Great fell ill, they have been wrestling with their forces in an attempt to claim the throne of the largest empire of all.
It's a pity that Santos the Great obviously doesn't want to let go yet, especially since he loves his lovely underage son even more.
The old and immortal Santos the Great seemed to be the most annoying existence for the Empire, at least for the nobles.
It is difficult for the thousand-year-old empire to have the opportunity to divide the title, especially since a large number of nobles occupy 90% of the empire's land, which makes the self-proclaimed Santos the Great always strive to weaken the influence of the nobility and strengthen the royal power.
When Santos the Great was young, he did this very well, so he was recognized as another wise and great emperor of the Guffenhardt family.
But the nobles he offended held a grudge against it. They fooled the three princes.
Prepare to become a new nobleman and gain more territories when you ascend to the throne.
Many ambitious nobles have also become ready to move in the face of the decaying Griffin Empire, after all, it is too tempting to reign over the world.
The evil forces of darkness and the crocodiles lurking in the darkness are stirring the muddy waters of the Griffon Empire.
The appearance of the undead may be a great danger to the world, but in the eyes of careerists, it is a good opportunity to eliminate dissent.
After all, sending out to face the terrible undead is an act of death no matter how you look at it.
Even many people encouraged the emperor to send the central army of the empire to the rescue, so that the last guarantee of the imperial family would be gone.
I am afraid that if this is done, the Griffon Empire may immediately enter the era of fierce competition.
Of course, this kind of self-destruction of the city wall His Majesty Santos will naturally not do it, the lion is old, but it does not mean that he can be fooled by mice.
The Central Legion can't go, but who the other legions send will be the key to the bargain.
Most of the legions were actually controlled by the nobles.
These great nobles have a long heritage, and the family talents are numerous and the relationships are intricate.
Those local legions were controlled by the henchmen of the great nobles. Either simply the descendants of the great nobles as the commander of the legion.
Just like Marshall's Bansfateh, who control one-third of the Empire's griffin troops, the Empire's most famous royal elite griffin legion is the Griffon's own home. Of course, they are the three throne families and have always been loyal.
However, it has also been shown that this phenomenon is abundant in the Griffon Empire.
The great nobles had huge territories. A large number of private soldiers and legions that still controlled the localities.
No wonder these great nobles have such ambitions.
The decaying aristocratic knighthood will always collapse in the last days, because the human heart is greedy.
Naturally, the aristocrats, who regarded the place as their own private property, would not let their power suffer, especially at this time when the times of the struggle for royal power were changing. They know better that only the army in their hands is the foundation of their existence. As for the safety of the country, the people or the world, it has nothing to do with them.
Even if the world is destroyed in the end, it only cares about the immediate interests. (Just like the landlords of the late Ming Dynasty.) The family has a lot of money, but they are not willing to support the state. )
Of course, this world is not only a world of intrigues, but also many people who insist on faith and justice.
A leader has emerged among the Knights of Light, who represents light and justice. Known as the "Hand of Justice", the legendary knight Cyberton Everding.
At Cyberton's behest, knights, rangers, warriors, and priests who believed in the light gathered under his command.
They volunteered to fight the undead, and they belonged to the warmest dawn in this world.
Overjoyed upon hearing this, the Griffon Empire immediately dispatched the Imperial Navy to pick them up.
A large number of weapons and other supplies were also provided.
Of course, as a gesture, a large number of cannon fodder characters were drawn from all over the country to join Cyberton's banner.
An expeditionary force of more than 20,000 men was formed to rescue the elven kingdom.
The griffon kingdom is full of praise for this group of knights who stand up to justice.
But behind the scenes, they all disdain to treat them as fools and cannon fodder.
20,000 people against a million undead troops, even if all of them are elites, I am afraid it will be a food delivery.
What's more, in the midst of such fanfare and praise, the Nation of Death has long known the full news of this unit.
On the calm blue sapphire seas, the fleet carrying the expeditionary force was surrounded by a fleet of ghosts more than three times as large.
In the face of the huge disadvantage, this group of expeditionary forces advocating light and justice still resisted desperately.
But the gap was so huge, and it was still above the ocean, there was no doubt that the entire expeditionary force was killed, even by the legendary Just Hand.
The terrible news came, and the support teams of the major principalities all stopped halfway and did not dare to set off.
The Griffon Empire also began to argue about this, after all, there was no one to be cannon fodder anymore, and it was clear that the second batch of reinforcements might be far away.
A group of politicians who claim to be smart have allowed the best way to defend against the enemy before it can be put into bankruptcy.
And the elven kingdom that was looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements did not know that what they were ushering in was despair.
Could it be that the elven kingdom is destroyed like this? (To be continued.) )
PS: How do you feel? Because in fact, I have shrunk a lot of chapters, and there were originally nine volumes of the first half of the journey of destiny, but now there are only seven volumes. I don't know if you like the war in the second half or not, but if you don't, it may really end in this volume.
