Chapter 565: Decision to Retire
Get back.
Gotta go back.
When Aiden sent greetings to the world and named the next target to take the dynasty, Vega understood that the north of the empire could no longer stay, and if he could not return in time, the empty rear would be undefended.
Of course.
Aiden's ultimatum is only a secondary reason, after all, the rabbit is forced to bite people in a hurry, the United Kingdom is a superpower, you want to destroy an entire country with 300,000 troops, and even if they can't beat you, they will bite off a piece of your meat.
Especially the bloody deeds of this army.
Under this premise, the soldiers of the United Kingdom will surely burst into unprecedented combat effectiveness, because there is still a glimmer of life in a desperate battle, and if they do not fight desperately, the final result can only lead to death.
In light of this.
A month is a period of time when the United Kingdom can definitely hold out.
And Vega wants to take the city of Rops, and it will take almost a month before and after, and this time difference is enough for Vega to stabilize the north and then return to the country, and the war on both sides is completely non-conflicting from the perspective of time.
Then why did Vega leave the fat in his mouth and hurry to the country?
In addition to the uncertainty of whether or not we can take Lops City at the estimated time, the real reason is -
Habitat Lis's belated intel.
According to the information she received, the individual quality of this army is very strong, and it is difficult for ordinary swords to kill their soldiers, and the only people who can inflict damage on them are professionals and magicians.
It is worth noting.
Although there are high-level martial arts similar to those of the profession in this army, there is no class similar to that of the mage, and almost all of them rely on melee combat to kill the enemy.
But the only thing that can't be solved is -
Five of the Vanguard are high-level martial arts comparable to those of the Holy Rank Professionals.
And he didn't dare to conclude that the enemy only had 5 people worthy of the Holy Rank Profession, and the most troublesome thing about this army was not only their formidable strength, but also its mystery.
Powerful is not scary.
Even the most powerful enemies must have their own weaknesses, and the reason why senior officers are called senior officers is because they know how to grasp the enemy's weaknesses and then crush the enemy to the ground and never turn over.
So compared to being strong, what Vega is really afraid of is the unknown.
Unknown means variable.
In a war, the more variables you control, the farther you go, and this is known as winning more and not winning less, and the situation is that this army controls their basic information, and the whole continent knows nothing about them.
Luckily.
Grace Rodney always surprises him at a crucial moment.
While the whole continent was speculating about where this force came from and why it was so powerful, along with the basic information, a mythological biography written by an anonymous person was sent.
As everyone knows.
The Holy Dynasty to the east and the Liberty Alliance to the west have always been the two oldest ancient kingdoms, dating back long to before the fault line between civilizations, so the royal library of the Holy Dynasty is filled with countless books.
Mythological biographies alone occupy an entire floor.
This mythological biography called Ragnarok is one of them.
This book is about the battle of the ancient gods, and if you look at it now, most people will only think that it is a fantasy, not to mention anything else, the book mentions that the gods waved their hands and the sky fell apart, so why do ordinary soldiers and magicians need to fight for it?
It turns out.
Most of the information in this book is really not credible, and at best it is a somewhat interesting biography of mythology.
But the page that was bookmarked by Qi Lisi made Vega unable to take his eyes off it anyway, and the title of this page was-
Wurm.
According to mythological biographies, the wurms are the descendants of the crosses of the ancient dragon family, and are born with the magical defense of professionals, although they cannot exert their magic power like professionals, but ordinary swords are difficult to injure in the slightest.
A special subdragon species that can use the magic power in their bodies is called a dragon messenger.
But in ancient times, even the strongest dragon envoys were only as strong as professionals of the same level, whether they were magicians of the human race and elven races, or high-level abilities of the subhuman race, they could not raise their heads.
The book is full of contempt.
As can be seen from the wording, the author does not place them on the same level as humans at all, so that they are recorded in less than two pages.
Then look down.
It is recorded in the book that after Ragnarok.
The dragon kingdom was wiped out, and they were expelled from the continent as a defeated nation.
As for why it was expelled and not exterminated, there is no mention in the book, but in the biography of the Dragon Country, which is introduced in the following large chapter, it can be seen that the Dragon Country once ruled the Jialan Continent for 100,000 years, until the fall of the Dragon God and the rise of the new God.
At the same time, it can be seen that:
The wurms resemble Terrans, but they can be distinguished from humans with the naked eye, and the difference lies in the faint scales on the right side of each wurm's face.
The more scales on the right side of the face and the more pronounced, the stronger the strength.
If the book's description of the wurms is correct, then there's a good chance they're from the depths of the Dragon's Sea.
Considering that Aiden was forced to sail to the sea of dragons with his army in the first place, is it possible to boldly speculate that Aiden provided a route back for these lost wurms?
If you don't guess wrong, these 300,000 ......
Maybe it's just a vanguard corps testing the waters.
There is a high probability that the wurm species wants to use this 300,000 army to see the current situation on the mainland, if the continent is still full of holy positions as before, and the star position is not as good as dogs, it is estimated that they will not dare to give birth to any thoughts of returning to the continent or revenge.
But if you know that the countries of the mainland can't even get a star professional......
The answer is self-evident, the most likely is that the whole country will invade, and it is even possible to follow the example of its own suzerainty to rule the continent again.
So Vega didn't want to waste time here.
The top priority now is to return to the country to arrange a defensive line, otherwise even if you get more land and more resources, it will be the saddest thing to take the life and the lifeless flower.
Behind the eastern shore of the dynasty is the Sea of Dragons.
Now it is necessary to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
If the Argonian race invades the whole country, the first stop is the eastern part of the empire and the United Kingdom, except for the east coast of the Holy Dynasty, and now the best invasion location of the kingdom Dragon City has fallen, and the area near the sea of the empire is less than one-eighth of the Holy Dynasty.
Other words.
In addition to facing the kingdom that the Holy Dynasty has to fight and cannot raise its head to bring up the 300,000 Argonian army, it is also possible that the Argonian will be caught by the Argons from the direction of the Dragon Sea, and there is not much time left for the Holy Dynasty.
