CH.96 The Decisive Battle That Came Ahead of Schedule
The two fleets stood majestically on the sea, staring at each other from a distance, and because of the large number of ships, it was impossible to see how many ships there were from one side to the other, and the enemy ships in the rear were all hidden in the fog at sea level. Two breaths of solemnity and desolation diffused from the two fleets.
Anrui stood at the bow of the flagship King's Landing, holding the hilt of the Groundbreaking Sword in his hand, the tip of the scabbard against the ground. He looked across from afar, his brow furrowed slightly, his gaze deep.
Fished from the depths of the Endless Sea, the King's Landing was an epic magical ship with a length of a thousand yards and twelve decks. The entire ship was filled with all kinds of magic cannons and magic weapons, and there were also many magic arrays carved into them, which required more than fifty high-level wizards to start together.
Even the dragon king's calamity blast could not break through the ship's defenses. On the contrary, the ship's attack can injure the dragon king!
When it comes to the strength of special ships, this King's Landing can definitely rank in the top ten in the Seven Seas World, and only a few ships can match it. As for the special ships of the god class, the number is quite rare, and they are mainly in the hands of heaven and hell.
The entire fleet stood by as the King's Landing slowed forward and waved the flag of negotiation. Before the war, I want to talk to the people of the coalition forces. Anrui ordered.
Although Anrui had already made clear his attitude at the roundtable, he could not go to war directly. It is necessary to fight, but the style of play is very important, and Anrui does not want to have a scuffle, which will lead to heavy losses on both sides and a river of blood. He's more inclined to elite battles. Let the elites of both sides fight each other, and use this small number of people to decide the final victory. In this way, no matter who wins or loses, at least those ordinary soldiers will not be reduced to meaningless and worthless cannon fodder.
The coalition fleet quickly responded. He also sent out a terrible ship to meet An Rui's ship.
The ship was massive, no less than the King's Landing, white and glowing with a holy white light, with white wings stretched out on both sides of the hull and huge cross-shaped masts erected on the deck. At the bow of the ship. A statue of God was erected.
"The epic Templar ship Shenguang, it seems that the coalition forces are not small." An Rui smiled slightly and said softly.
The Divine Light's level and strength are on par with the King's Landing. These two ships are worth a thousand or more warships!
Two mighty ships met on the sea, bow to bow, only a hundred yards apart.
Anrui stood at the bow of the ship with many capable men. The leaders of the coalition also stood at the bow of the ship. The two groups of people looked at each other across the sea.
"Who is the leader of your coalition? Stand up and talk to me! Anrui shouted.
A middle-aged man with a white glow came out of the crowd and stood in front of everyone, with a pair of white angel wings stretched behind his back, but he himself was by no means an angel. This man has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, giving people a sense of kindness, and his body exudes vigorous power fluctuations.
At a glance, An Rui recognized the identity of the winged man, a clergyman of the Holy Cross, second only to the Pope. The strength even surpasses that of the Pope, and he specializes in completing some battles for the Holy See.
Men are called the saints of the world. As for his real name, few people have mentioned it anymore.
The Human Sage is definitely the top powerhouse in the world, and in terms of strength, he can even pose a threat to An Rui. When it comes to strength, status, reputation, etc., the human sages are even more than those king-level figures, so it's no wonder that they are entrusted with the important task of being the leader of the alliance.
"Dear King Anrui, I am a human sage, temporarily acting as the commander-in-chief of the Guardian Legion, and I will speak to you on an equal footing on behalf of the entire Legion. It is my sincere hope that you will give up your ambition to unify the world and retreat into the Endless Sea for the sake of those innocent civilians. If you are willing to retreat, everything can be done without blame. This is your last chance to turn back. The human sage spoke softly, but his voice was extraordinarily loud.
"There is no such thing as a last chance, I said last time, no one can change my mind, my will is extremely strong." An Rui immediately vetoed the other party's suggestion, and then said his thoughts, "This battle is inevitable and destined to be fought." In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, I hope that the two sides will have a strong duel here, each with a ship and a thousand people, and use this ship and a thousand people to decide the winner. ”
"What if...... If we win, will you quit? ”
"Of course."
"What if we lose?"
"The coalition forces are disbanded, and all the nations that join the coalition swear to surrender to me and become the territory of the Nova Empire. Note that it is a territory, not a vassal state, and not a colony. ”
"The price we paid was too great, I'm afraid it won't work. Moreover, I represent the Holy See, and you can't make the Holy See submit to you, can you? The Human Sage shook his head.
"If you feel like you're at a loss, I can increase the weight. If we lose, the Nova Empire will not only retreat, but will also be at the disposal of your coalition army, and so will I personally! An Rui said sharply.
In this way, the weight of both sides is equal.
Due to the great involvement, the human sage could not be the master himself, so he asked An Rui to wait for a while, and then had an urgent discussion with the important members of the coalition army.
In the case of unavoidable circumstances, such small-scale battles can try to avoid casualties and shorten the duration of the war. The temptation for these alliance members is very great, and they also want to use a battle to defeat An Rui neatly and end all this. Moreover, the entire Nova Empire and An Rui's submission is definitely an extremely tempting cake.
The final result of the discussion was that most of them agreed to Anrui's proposal, and only a small number of people voted against.
In order to gain an additional advantage, the coalition forces made a request to postpone the battle until three days later. This was done in order to have time to prepare and bring in more strong people from all over the country. Before going to war, the two sides also have to sign a soul agreement to prevent anyone from regretting it afterwards.
The effect of the soul agreement is similar to that of the master-servant contract, which uses words to bind the soul, and once the text is violated, the soul will suffer a heavy blow and lead to death. Such an agreement is a guarantee of the fairness of the outcome of the war.
An Rui happily agreed to these two requests. The Confederates need to prepare early, and so does he. The Confederates are afraid that he will repent, and he is equally afraid that the Confederates will repent!
The two sides signed an agreement on the same day, and the countdown to the big battle began to count at this moment.
……
"Berego, I need your help, come through the portal. When you come, bring a few more strong men under your command who can fight well, pay attention to the noble spirits are not too expensive, and only bring the strongest ones over. An Rui contacted Berego in the distance through the sound transmission stone.
"Okay, I'll leave right away." Berego agreed very simply, without the slightest nonsense.
An Rui put down the sound transmission stone, then picked up another sound transmission stone, contacted another strong man who belonged to Dragon Castle, asked this strong man to come over to help, and promised various benefits.
The Alliance Army can draw strong people from other places, and of course Anrui can too!
When it comes to appeal, An Rui is not much worse than the Alliance Army, and there will be many strong people who are willing to fight for him and stand on his side. For those strong people who can't be contacted, An Rui will release news by arranging for his subordinates in various places to let these people help contact those strong people.
Ordinary powerhouses, of course, An Rui is not eye-catching, only the strong people whose combat power can be among the best in the world are worthy of his invitation. Of course, the Nova Empire can also bring a lot of powerhouses.
With Anrui's current strength and identity, it is not difficult to gather a thousand strong people through various channels.
In the next three days, strong people came to the Blade Sea through various means, either to join the Alliance Army or to join the Nova Empire, forming a grim confrontation. It's been a long time since this world has been so lively, and it's really rare for so many strong people to gather together. With the combat power of these strong men, it is enough to easily capture an entire continent in one day!
Anrui's expansion has only just begun, and it is facing such a big obstacle that this kind of battle is almost like a great battle.
It is true that this battle can be regarded as a major battle, as long as Anrui wins this battle, there will not be much hindrance in the future, and all the countries of the alliance army will submit to him. In the future, the road to conquest will be much smoother.
Three days have passed in a flash, and it seems that the decisive moment is about to be ushered in.
In the illusion created by the mirage, An Rui saw his wife and lover for the last time before going to war.
The three of them stood in a triangular shape in the illusion, with different expressions.
"Ever since I met you, you've always been able to win in a variety of ways, and even if you lose in a short period of time, you'll still find a way to win it back in the future. Anrui, I love, I'm sure you'll be able to win this time! Shafi clenched her fists and stretched out her gaze to Anrui, her eyes blazing.
"I also believe that you will wait for you to return with the newborn child in the Star Empire, you must win, you must win!" Alice also stretched out her fist, touching Sophie's fist.
"This will be the toughest battle I've ever fought in my life, with all the best in the world, but it's nothing compared to the crisis Cthulhu is about to bring. Not even these enemies can be defeated, let alone defeated. Don't worry, I will definitely return triumphantly this time, and I will return triumphantly as the overlord of the seven seas! With a confident smile on his face, An Rui reached out his fist one last and collided with the fists of his two lovers.
The three fists touched for a few seconds, conveying each other's warmth, each other's heartbeat, and each other's faith.
The time was about to come, and An Rui left the illusion and entered reality under the gaze of two pairs of eyes. (To be continued......)
