Chapter 130: A War to the Death

Lei sat at the corner of the city wall in great confusion, holding his chin in his hands and pondering there: "Why did Prince Andre go to see His Majesty just after seeing me? Could it be that His Majesty asked him to say those words to me? It doesn't make sense, Your Majesty still trusts me, how can he make such a move? Judging from His Majesty's words, he still trusts me the most... It's really strange ... However, maybe I'm suspicious, after all, the prince is His Majesty's uncle, and it's normal for the two to be together. ”

Ray let out a long sigh of relief and stretched to his feet.

The sky was blue, and the clouds were neatly arranged in the air like ropes, moving rapidly under the blowing of the wind. Ray could even feel that the sun was moving at a speed that a person simply didn't expect. The reason why it seems that the sun is not moving, maybe it is just because the sun is too far away from him, right? Lei took a long breath, feeling the jump of the various lively elemental spirits he inhaled in his body, and his whole body seemed to fly.

Gentle applause came, and Kalin said softly: "It's a miracle, it turns out that the strength of the paladin is like this, with strong martial arts, almost infinite fighting spirit, but you can still feel the existence of magic elements, you can use the power of nature, this is the true face of the paladin." No wonder, it is impossible for ordinary warriors to fight with paladins. ”

Ray turned his head, looked at Carlin who was alone, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty Carlin, there doesn't seem to be anything to say between us, right? I remember that you swore in front of His Highness Bobkat that you would kill me to avenge me." ”

Carlin smiled hesitantly, "Oh, come on, my dear family guardian knight Ray... Oh, come on, come on, I'm just kidding, but General Lei should remember that I once canonized General Lei?。。。 Oh yes, yes, I shouldn't have mentioned these sad things, it hurt our feelings so much, although really, there is no affection between us. Look, I'm still a person who knows the times very well, don't I? ”

Ray sat lazily on the battlements of the city wall and asked, "Enough, Carlin, I know your mouth can say dead as alive, so don't talk too much." Say, what do you want to do? Although you are a top-level magician, but at such a distance, I can smash you to death with a fist, believe it or not? So, you'd better not play any tricks, just be honest about what you want to say, and then please stay away from me. ”

Carlin frowned and said in a slurp, "What an unkind guy, Ray. Of course, I understand that the hatred between the two of us cannot be eliminated so easily. Carlin instinctively smacked his buttocks, and then sat on the city wall with his ass, regardless of his honorable status. The battlements were too tall for Carlin's size to sit on them so easily.

After staring at Ray for a while, Carlin nodded and sighed, "What a pity, I originally wanted General Lei to command the coalition forces and counterattack back after we regathered our forces." You know, our Smart Empire has done a lot of research recently for those damned criminals, but we need a strong general to stab the morale of the soldiers, so that we can maximize the effectiveness of those equipment, but unfortunately, if you follow those guys in the 'God City', if you die, at least now there is no one in the Seven Kingdoms who can be qualified to be the marshal. Carlin sighed in pity.

Ray sneered: "Am I so great? At least my brother Jerry is also a competent general, right? Of course, you Smart Empire can't find such a person." Your generals are busy calculating how to betray their comrades and how to weaken their allies. ”

Karin's face changed, he looked at Ray seriously and said, "Do you believe me? I can seriously swear that this time the garrison of the 'Divine City' was betrayed, and my Smart Empire was just responding to the call of several other countries. I'm not a decent man, and there's no shame in betraying a group of magic guides with less than five hundred people left in exchange for our respite. But I didn't think of taking the opportunity to weaken the power of your Van Empire, even though so many knights of your Knights of Glory have survived. ”

Ray burst out laughing, and the laughter shook the city walls, and Carlin frowned tightly and couldn't help but cover his ears. Ray gasped, looked at Carlin with a smile on his face, and said, "Haha, Your Majesty, thank you so much for the entertainment you brought me, you Smart swear? ”

Carlin shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Yes, our Smart oath is unreliable, but I didn't expect you to believe me. All I can say is that I've been figuring out how to defeat the Sinners ever since they appeared on the mainland. What I do know is that at least we can't defeat the criminals with the garrison of the 'God City' and our current military strength, it is not a problem that can be solved by numbers, we must rely on some powerful weapons. ”

Ray stared at Carlin and nodded, "It turns out that your statement is correct, but what kind of way can you find a way to deal with those criminals?"

Carlin sneered and said, "Don't forget, our Smart Empire is the smartest of the seven empires, and it is also the country that retains the knowledge of the primeval gods during the war. We can do more than all six of you combined ... Didn't you Empire send Bobkat to sneak into our temple and steal our fire recipe? Did he tell you what he saw inside?"

Lei was dumbfounded, and his face was full of shame after being caught as a thief. He whined for a long time, and then said with horizontal eyes: "Your temple has long been destroyed by the heavenly thunder, and what are you talking about the nonsense that we sent someone to steal into the temple? However, I'm really strange, it's the temple of your god of conspiracy, and it's even going to be damned. Ray was ashamed of his history as a thief, so he quickly changed the subject.

Carlin looked at Ray haughtily, his eyes shining. He said proudly: "According to the agreement of the major forces after the War of the Ancient God, in order to ensure the safety of the continent, in order to prevent those high-lethal weapons from appearing on the continent, the human race destroyed all the relevant materials, except for our empire secretly retained a part... Well, let me tell you briefly, the gods will punish those who secretly study that knowledge, so we use the sealing power of the Temple of Wisdom to study what our empire is interested in underground. ”

Ray's eyes widened and he couldn't speak. Carlin said angrily: "However, it is because of you, for a useless recipe for fire, that you actually sent someone to steal into the temple when we held a memorial service, at that time, the power of the god of wisdom will envelop the superstructure of the temple, and you opened the passage between the superstructure and the lower secret room, didn't you force the gods to send a warning? Fortunately, our materials are backed up, but many research results have been destroyed." ”

Remeran, he remembered what Bobkat had told him about the strange things he had seen in the underground vault. Carlin said a little helplessly: "Fortunately, a lot of research results have been transferred, so when the criminals attacked the continent this time, I used the national strength of the entire empire to reluctantly resume the research work." You harmful things are just a recipe for ordinary fire, are you worth stealing like this?。。。 You have destroyed a treasure trove of priceless information for something worth a silver coin. ”

The more Carlin spoke, the more angry he became, and after he had finally calmed down, he said, "However, my teacher has spent ten years of his life asking for a revelation, and the gods seem to have agreed with us to use those dangerous things against the sinners, after all, the sinners have already started to use the 'magic light cannon', haven't they? How can we make so many items without time? We only have more than 4,000 mages who can access those materials, and only more than 2,000 mages who can make related items, so we need a lot of time. ”

Ray jumped up: "So, you insisted on going along with the proposal of the sinners, handing over the garrison of the 'Divine City', and exchanging their lives for time?"

Carlin looked at Lei as a matter of course: "Naturally, in exchange for the lives of their millions of residents for the right to live of hundreds of millions of people on the mainland, I think this business is very cost-effective." You are a soldier, so you pay attention to the affection of the so-called comrades-in-arms and the pride of knights. But what about me? I'm the Emperor of Smart, and I'm going to fuck so many rules, and all I ask for is the end result, the result that our Smart Empire won't be destroyed by the attack of the sinners... For the people of the 'City of God', this is a kind of dedication, so what can't they think of?"

Ray's head was in a state of confusion, and he couldn't argue with Carlin's words, but he knew that it was absolutely contrary to his ideas. He could only keep spinning in place, muttering angrily. Karin snorted and said, "Leave those 'Divine City' armies behind, and then the sinners may regroup their armies to attack us after two or three months of repair." They may even kill all the people of the northern lands of your Van Empire and use them to create Black Knights and zombies. Think about it, tens of millions of necromantic teams rushed over, and Turk Canyon couldn't stop them at all. ”

Carlin let out a long sigh, shook his head and said: "Turk Canyon is not the only passage, those undead who are not afraid of death, they don't care about the snow-capped mountains on both sides, they can even directly rush from the desert and desert in the east of your empire all the way to the Wright Empire, and then sweep the entire continent... The existence of the 'Turk' Canyon defense line is just to stabilize the hearts of the people on the mainland, in fact, we all know that it is useless. So apart from the garrison of the 'Divine City', we only sent less than 200,000 troops to garrison there. ”

Ray froze, he hadn't thought of such a question at all. Yes, the snowy mountains are cold and steep, and it is impossible for human armies to climb them, but what about the necromancy? Are the zombies still afraid of falling to their deaths? They can climb once, twice, three times, in short, they can climb over the snowy mountains. And what difference does it make to the necromantic army that has become a moat because there is no drinking water, no food and grass, and they need to drink water and eat? Each necromancer can also carry a large amount of food, as long as it is enough to feed and drink the sinners, they can appear directly in the northernmost part of Wright's empire.

Lei was dumbfounded, he suddenly realized that what Carlin said made sense, he didn't realize that it was the sinners who had the initiative now, and he didn't think at all that the sinners could destroy the civilization of the entire continent as long as they put their minds together. Even the criminals have long made up their minds, the only problem is that their current wounded have not recovered, or those knights who have died have not all been transformed into black knights.

With a burst of creeping, Ray screamed, "Damn it, those knights we lost, what if... They... Oh, my God... ”

Carlin sneered: "Ray, you have experienced the horror of the black knights yourself, as a paladin, you are a hundred times more powerful than ordinary golden fifth-order knights, but how many black knights have you been knocked down after defeating? If two million black knights appear in the 'Turk' Canyon, they can directly destroy our city walls and drive straight down." At that time, all our nobles committed suicide themselves, and all the men on the continent became slaves, so women became the tools of the sinners to reproduce. ”

Ray sat on the ground weakly, he looked at Carlin with a wry smile, shook his head and said, "So, we will lose this war?" Ray suddenly jumped up and yelled at Carlin: "Fuck, you said it, you have persuaded the dragon clan to ask those reptiles of the dragon group to help us fight, but those damn things, where are they?"

Carlin's face turned pale for a while, and he jumped up in anger and annoyance: "Shut up, don't mention those damn big lizards to me... Wait, wait... When I kill those sinners, I must organize a coalition to destroy the entire Dragon Island, and I will turn those lizards into jerky and feed them to the wild dogs... Damn it, they dare to break my word to Carlin, I'm going to take revenge on them, I swear, I swear in the name of the god of the underworld and the god of death, if I can't clean up those damn treacherous reptiles, I'll... ”

A thunderbolt struck from the sky, and Carlin trembled and crouched on the ground in embarrassment. Ray laughed strangely: "Ha, treachery, this seems to be the most common thing for you Smart nobles, right? Well, you are a believer in the god of conspiracy, and you swear by the gods of the sinful people, I'm afraid he will be unhappy?。。。 Besides, what are you going to do to defeat the criminals? Are you Carlin alone? Of course, maybe the god of conspiracy will give you half of his power, and then you can wave your hand and the criminals will be wiped out?"

Karin ignored Lei's sarcasm, looked at the sky cautiously, and then stood up angrily and said: "You know the power of the 'Magic Light Cannon', right? If, I mean if, we have a thousand 'Nuclear Fusion Cannons' that are 100 times more powerful than the 'Magic Light Cannon', plus 10,000 magic puppets leading the attack in front, plus the ZHA medicine that is 100 times more powerful than the black fire yao, and the artillery researched by your Van Empire, do you think the flesh and blood of the criminals can resist it?"

Lei was stunned, he looked at Carlin blankly, shook his head and said, "You are crazy, you can have so many magic weapons, you should have put them into use a long time ago." "Lei Ke remembers clearly, fifteen magic golems were destroyed after killing thousands of black knights at the 'Senko' pass, if there were ten thousand such powerful magic golems charging in front, what would the million-strong army of criminals count?

Carlin softened like a punctured ball, and said distressedly, "That's right, that's it, we now have the tools, we have a lot of magic crystals to make those items, but we don't have enough time. We can only make one light cannon a day, ten days to make a magic golem, and so far, we have only ... ”

Ray looked at Carlin, nodded, and said, "Hmm, how many of you have now?"

Carlin shook his head quickly, "I'm sorry, this is an internal affair of the Smart Empire, and I can't tell you how much we have now." It's not that I can't trust you, because obviously, if we defeat the sinners, then we will still have to fight each other, and then I can't tell you all the details of us, can I?"

Ray sneered: "Then forget it, I'm used to your Smart style of hiding your head and tail... In that case, you Smart Empire can defeat the Sinners, so I don't need to do anything else. I don't think it has anything to do with me anymore. With that, Ray turned and left.

Carlin was a little anxious, he quickly grabbed Ray and said, "The problem is, these weapons need to be operated by people." Needless to say, the light cannon needs to be operated by people, magic puppets, we can't reach the level of the primeval, we can only reach the general level of control. And those who operate also need the protection of melee forces. But according to the current morale, I am afraid that once the sinners rush closer, those soldiers will have long since fled, so I need a person who can make the soldiers feel that they will win, a person who can act as a symbol of the army, let him lead these soldiers, otherwise, no matter how powerful the weapons are, we will not be able to win. ”

Lei was silent for a while, shook his head and said: "That's right, I admit that you have a point, the current morale has fallen to an incredible level, but I still have to fight." You are an emperor, so you can't understand how humiliating it is for a warrior to watch your comrades go out to die, while standing in a safe place, imagining that you can destroy the enemy and avenge them in the future. ”

Carlin was silent, Lei Chang sighed, nodded and said, "If all the garrisons of the 'Divine City' are killed in battle, and I am not dead, I will come back to command the army." But if I die on the battlefield, Your Majesty Karin, you'll have to look for a new candidate. I'm not the only one who is suitable. With that, Lei strode down the city wall.

Carlin sighed, "You're the only one who fits... Jerry's guy? Hmph, isn't he the same as me in his bones, and he can't arouse the morale of the soldiers... Well, you damn thing, if you go to war, you're going to die. If you kill too many of them, the sinners will take revenge, and maybe they won't care about the so-called agreement, and they will attack us directly ... It's really distressing, we've only made about two dozen magic golems now, and we need a lot of time. ”

The wind blew, and Carlin's robes flew up, making him look so dim. Even if he was covered in the sun, he still looked so dull...
