Chapter 266: The World is Impermanent
"Tired? Is it painful? ”
Leo's voice came from the top of his head, "Actually, you don't need to run away at all, as long as you stop and let my little darling cut off your flesh piece by piece, and when your body bleeds its last drop of blood, you can join them without any more pain." ”
"You devil, don't follow us!"
Leo's words sent the Blackwater bandits to the back, and they screamed in fear as they swam forward desperately.
"Hahaha......"
Leo laughed, the appearance of the Blackwater Bandit made him feel like he was being teased by the dwarf aunt, and he even thought it was cool to bully people with an army of skeletons.
Sometimes it's also very interesting to have a lich dressed as a Scourge legion.
Leo held his chin and thought carefully, it would not be bad if he had an unconventional identity, at least he could use it to solve many problems that he couldn't solve with his current identity, such as erasing the guy from the same camp who dared to stab himself in the back from this world.
That's a great idea, isn't it?
Leo pondered the viability of this idea in Pelicion's head, but the blackwater bandits in the sea were in a race against death, but unfortunately, death is an irresistible law after all, with poor manpower to race against the tireless undead, does it need to be said that the end?
One by one, the exhausted Blackwater bandits were caught up by the skeleton army, and gradually drowned in the sea of white miserable bones in a miserable scream, which frightened their companions in front of them really shivered. The Blackwater bandits, who have completely lost their will to resist, are still fleeing for their lives, and the final result of fleeing is that they have all become trophies of the skeleton army.
After killing all the Blackwater bandits, Leo ordered Pelicion to rush back, and the five ships were still floating silently on the surface, waiting for their new owners to arrive.
With these five sea-going ships, the harbor of Fort Rapids has a certain protective capacity, and it is no longer a backyard for anyone to come and go whenever they want.
It's not that Leo is generous, but these five big ships are all paid, and he won't give them away in vain, even if he doesn't say anything, the Lothar family will send the equivalent reward.
Five 100-meter-long ships of the sea, their value is not low, how many raw materials can I get in exchange for making mechanical chariots?
"Lord Leo, thank you for your generosity, these five sea ships are the sea defense force that Fort Riptide urgently needs, we are willing to provide you with 10,000 copies of the materials you need, as a thank you for your generosity."
An epic powerhouse of the Lothar family said to Leo with a respectful face, and at this time, Riptide Castle was busy because of the five large sea ships brought back by Leo.
If you want to make it work, you have to get it moving, and if you want to drive a ship, you must have a captain, first mate, sailor and other professions, all of which must be screened, and there are many people who are interested in becoming the first sea force of Fort Riptide, and the port is now boiling, with several long queues lining up from the harbor to the castle in the center of Fort Rapids.
Nodding, Leo didn't care too much, these five big ships were snatched by him from the Blackwater bandits, it was a very easy robbery, since it was easy, he naturally didn't care too much. Besides, the price given by the Lothar family did not make him suffer, although the materials he asked for were all raw materials, and the price was not high, but the total value of 10,000 copies was not low, enough for him to make 10,000 copies of the mechanical chariot and the walking tank.
In other words, counting the skeleton mechanical army he has now, as long as the number of skeletons is enough, he can have more than 50,000 mechanical skeleton army.
An army of 50,000 skeleton machines, this is a force to be reckoned with, with them in hand, as long as there are no accidents, Leo alone can sweep away the Alasko coalition army in the Valley of Refuge, and wipe out the power of the Torbair family.
Speaking of life, life is really impermanent, when the relationship with Stormwind City fell to the freezing point, Leo was still thinking about taking refuge in the Alasko coalition in the Valley of Refuge, and when he met with Prince Galen, he still thought that this guy could take refuge, but in less than half a year, he was planning to raze the Valley of Refuge and wipe out the power of the Torbain family.
Life is impermanent, and what about the world?
It is still the highest point of the castle in the center of Fort Riptide, Leo looks down on the entire Fort Riptide, at this time Fort Riptide is a little more prosperous than before he went to sea, except for the harbor under construction, there is no trace of the great battle when the Fort Riptide was recaptured, and the whole city has not only been completely restored, but also built a lot of new buildings.
The population of Fort Riptide has increased a few points, so it seems that the refugees of the Arathi Highlands are more likely to choose between the Valley of Refuge and Fort Riptide.
This may not be in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of some people, it is the will of the people, and between the Torbain family and the Lothar family, the people of the kingdom of Araso still support Scarlett's Lothar family more.
Presumably, Prince Galen, who led the Valley of Refuge, should be in a hurry now, I wonder if he will take action?
As Leo thought, the current form was extremely unfavorable to Prince Galen, he really didn't expect that many years had passed since the rule of the Lothar family, and the subjects of the Kingdom of Arathso still had so much confidence in this family, and the efforts of the Torbain family, who were in charge of the kingdom, had not been truly recognized by the people of the kingdom for many years.
We, the Torbane family, have done so much for the kingdom of Aratho, why can't you people see it? Would you rather believe in the long-lost Lothar family and choose to go to Fort Riptide than to come to the Valley of Refuge, are you so unconfident in the Torbain family?
Prince Galen clenched his fists hatefully, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, ignorant fools, how can you know the strength of the Torbain family, how can you understand my Galen's ability, the fall of Fort Riptide is just a momentary mistake.
Someday, all of you will regret it.
"Your Royal Highness, a large number of people are leaving for Fort Riptide, because our army expansion plan has been seriously hampered by the lack of troops."
A female warrior dressed in the armor of the Commander approached, and this female warrior was none other than Prince Galen's right-hand man, Commander Amaron.
The lack of troops is a very serious problem for any force that wants to expand, and without enough troops, it is impossible to expand the army; If you can't expand your army, you won't get any increase in strength; There is no way to increase strength, how can we expand the territory? If the territory is not expanded, the population will naturally not increase, so it returns to the original point, the population is not enough, the source of soldiers is not enough, which forms a cycle of evil surnames.
With the formation of such a vicious cycle, this force will only become weaker and weaker, and eventually be destroyed by external forces.
Hearing the news brought by Amaren, Prince Galen frowned, he had expected this to happen when the refugees from the Arathi Heights were pouring into Fort Riptide, and sure enough, because not many people were willing to come to the Valley of Refuge, and there were not enough soldiers.
What to do, to forcibly stop the refugees from flocking to Fort Riptide?
This idea was vetoed by Prince Galen as soon as it came to his heart, he was not stupid, and he would never use such a stupid approach, unless the Tolbaine family was at a critical juncture. In the current state of the Refuge Valley, the Tolbain family is nowhere near that.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, the situation we are facing now is very serious, not only is the number of recruited soldiers far from meeting the requirements, but even our existing soldiers are gradually decreasing."
Prince Galen turned suddenly, his eyes full of ferocity.
"Amaron, do you mean that our soldiers have left behind their warrior honor and are heading for Fort Riptide like those refugees?"
What a heavy murderous aura!
Facing Prince Galen, who had obviously been enraged, Amaron was very frightened, it was the first time that Prince Galen showed such a strong murderous aura, he was obviously angered by the defection of his soldiers.
Defected?
Yes, in the eyes of Prince Galen, it was a betrayal for these soldiers to leave the Tolbane's Valley of Refuge and go to Fort Rapids, ruled by the Lothars, they betrayed the Tolbanes.
"These damned traitors!"
Prince Galen gritted his teeth in hatred, he really wanted Amaron to send someone to kill these soldiers who had defected to Fort Riptide, but he knew that he couldn't do it, so he had to be patient.
It was easy to calm the anger in his chest, and before Prince Galen could speak, as if he was trying to test his bottom line, Amaron spoke again.
"The undead of Hammer Town are moving, and the Undercity is showing signs of sending troops to them."
The Undercity has increased its troops to Hammer Town, and that's bad news again!
A succession of bad news left Prince Galen in the face of water, and since the Battle of Fort Riptide, the situation has suddenly turned against the Tolbaine family.
Originally, after the battle of Refuge Valley, the undead army was defeated and retreated, and the situation of the Torbaine family was very good, and the Arathor coalition army was about to usher in a rapid expansion opportunity, and then subdued the entire Arathi Heights, and then marched to the Hillsbrad Hills, captured Talenmir, recaptured Alterac, and then defeated the undead of the Undercity, and realized the revival of the kingdom of Alathor.
Things had always followed Prince Galen's script, but ...... The god of fate played a trick on him, and when the situation was good, Leo came out of nowhere, killing Farkurest and destroying the Syndicate in Riptide Castle with his superior combat power, and defeating the Argus Resuscitation under the command of the Shadow Council, helping Scarlett successfully retake Riptide Castle.
After the recapture of Riptide Castle, the Lothar family suddenly killed, and then Scarlett announced that the Lothar family was back in power in the kingdom of Araso, so everything changed, and more than eighty percent of the subjects fell to the Lothar family of Rapids.
The Tolbain family alone could not reverse the current decline, so they had to rely on external forces. It's just that it's easier to ask God and it's hard to send God, wouldn't doing so lead the wolf into the house? But if they didn't, there was no way out for the Tolbain family.
Thinking of this, a look of determination appeared in Prince Galen's eyes.
"Amaron, you go and contact Commander Link of the Stormwind Expeditionary Force, and say that I have something important to talk to him."
