Xuanwu Sanctuary, the largest city in the north of the Holy Blade Continent. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the square paved with huge stones, columns of steel soldiers lined up in neat phalanxes, one after another, until they spread into the depths of the mist, and the huge square could only hear the heavy sound of horseshoes trampling on the boulders and the sound of steel armor colliding, and the atmosphere was as cold and heavy as the cold wind of an early winter evening.

From time to time, the knight captain issued a low slogan and led their respective squads into their designated positions, these squads continued to form a new array of knights, and at the entrances around the square, there were still continuous knight squads gathering in the square, seemingly endless.

Whenever there is a big battle, troops must be gathered in the square, which is the practice of the Holy Blade Church, showing strength, gathering confidence, and boosting morale, and its functions are varied.

The closure of shops during the gathering ceremony is also the default practice of the Sanctuary, and for many years, the merchants of the Sanctuary have been silently abiding by this rule.

The shops around the square closed their doors in advance, and the residents of the Sanctuary were silently peeking at this grand pre-war ceremony from the cracks in the window lattices, attic eyes, hidden balconies, and periscopes in the cellar.

Looking down from the high altitude, you can see that the Sanctuary City is operating at full strength under a series of conventional rules, like a sophisticated and complex instrument, the army is gathering, the clergy is mobilizing, the logistics troops are preparing, and the transport convoy is lining up outside the city, while the top brass of the church is silently watching all this happen, their faces like water, their hearts like cold winter......

The Crusaders are about to march west!

This news quickly spread in some circles of the Holy Domain, and after countless circles, it finally spread in the Holy Land, and the movements of the army could not be concealed, and Gabriel did not deliberately hide anything, but no one knew what the goal of the western expedition was, not even the middle and high-ranking officers of the crusaders.

There are no more than five people who really grasp the movement of this march, all of them are sitting on several tall steel beasts in front of the square, these hideous beasts made of pure steel are the image of the holy beasts of the Holy Blade Church, they are five meters high, weigh about 50 tons, and are customized by Langang, eight white high-headed horses are arranged in front of the giant beast, however, its power is not provided by horses, and horses do not have the ability to pull more than 50 tons of carriages, it is driven by a number of internal combustion engine groups, full of power, and condenses the top scientific and technological crystallization of Langang.

Five steel behemoths lined up in front of the square, they represent five of the eight strongest divine envoys under the Dark Emperor's throne, except for the three divine envoys of the Sanctuary Battlefield who were not transferred back, the rest were all dispatched, which shows Gabriel's determination and will to kill, and also shows his importance to the power of Bounty Town, this time the western expedition almost dispatched all the living forces in Gabriel's hands.

The real immobility is the same, and the movement is a blockbuster, which is also Gabriel's philosophy of war.

A complete Knights of the Holy Blade, two Knights of the Blade, more than 15,000 horses, more than 800 complete knight squads, 1,500 infantry teams, and a total number of soldiers of more than 24,000 people, compared to the Knights of Peter, the number is 1.4 times more, and there are nearly 1,500 Knights of the Holy Blade Captains, more than 200 Dark Arbitrators, 5 oracles and dark emperors in person, the strength is really terrifying, this is a force enough to cross the Holy Blade Continent.

Observing these messages, the agents of the various forces lurking in the Sanctuary came to a unified conclusion: Gabriel is determined to launch a decisive battle! The final battle!

Regardless of whether this is logical or not, whether it is in line with the laws of war, seeing is believing, this information has been disseminated by various channels in the Xuanwu Sacred Domain, at different speeds, and under the diligent operation of these channels, the news has spread to all corners of the continent at an astonishing speed.

It was only within three hours after the start of the Western Expedition Gathering Ceremony that the Gothic Sanctuary was alarmed by the alarms sent from various channels, Camus was disturbed, and urgently convened a response meeting, at which several councilors fought for red-facedness, and Camus looked at the team under his command with an iron face, under the chaos of war, Fang showed the true colors of the team, from this point of view, he seemed to be weaker than the Dark Emperor, at least the comparison of the team was like this.

It didn't take long for the Gothic Sanctuary and the Moon Occultation Sanctuary to begin operations as well, and corresponding measures were issued, and first-level orders were transmitted to every level of the princely land.

Overnight, the originally peaceful situation of the Holy Blade Continent suddenly surged, unexpectedly, into an unprecedented state of tension, even the Horn of Salon on the other side of the strait also felt the movement of the Holy Blade Church, cooperatively restrained the hostile behavior, and took a wait-and-see attitude, trying to reap the benefits of the fisherman after the two powers competed for hegemony.

And Bounty Town got the news of the Crusader's expedition to the west on the second night of the departure of Gabriel's army, Catherine urgently convened a meeting of the Xingtian Legion, and a group of people waited in the conference room, and Cen Mu happened to receive Su Ling's request to connect, so he simply put the meeting and Su Ling's joint meeting together, and Qin Yuan maintained the spiritual connection between the two places.

Thus, the most sound meeting of the personnel of the 1st and 2nd regiments was thus promoted.

When Qin Yuan presented the image information of Su Ling's side in front of everyone's eyes in a divine way, Cen Mu began to introduce: "This is called Huo Suling, it is my wife, everyone in the first group should know her identity and origin, and the brothers of the second group can get to know her." The handsome guy next to her is called Huo Qiming, who is the finance minister of the first regiment, and the other two middle-aged uncles are Cheng Bang and Yan Yiwen, who are the commander and marching staff officer of the first regiment respectively, and they are now located in Langang, and the high-level of Langang are negotiating to win potential allies for us......"

Then, Cen Mu made a brief introduction to the people of the second group, and the people on both sides exchanged pleasantries before they began to enter the main topic of the meeting.

All eyes were focused on Cen Mu, in fact, when they heard the news of the Dark Emperor's personal conquest, they were all flustered, especially the people of the second group, because they deeply understood Gabriel's fear, which was like imprinted in the depths of their genes, the result of decades of enslavement by the Holy Blade Church.

Cen Mu spread out his hand and said, "Su Ling, let's talk about the situation over there first!" You take the initiative to connect, and I guess there should be some progress on your side. ”

Su Lingqiao's face was slightly red, and she took over the conversation: "Yes, it can be said that there have been some results!" For this, I will explain in detail later, and now I want to tell you an urgent news, which is from the Langang side, I don't know if you have received similar information from your side......"

Cen Mu replied, "You mean that the Dark Emperor started the crusade westward, right? ”

Su Ling nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you know, it seems that you have been prepared, to be honest, I was frightened by the reaction of the Blue Harbor, after they heard about Gabriel's personal expedition, they collectively fell into a state of panic, and even the Lord of the Blue Harbor was not calm, which caught me off guard."

We had just negotiated the terms, and when we were about to sign the contract, they temporarily reversed themselves and almost caused the negotiations to collapse directly. ”

"And then?"

Su Ling pouted and said: "There is no way, I can only call my father's number, let him intervene in the negotiations, and promise that if the emperor enters the Blue Harbor, he will lead the army of the Federation to personally conquer the Holy Blade Continent, in addition, Mr. Solo said that the aircraft carrier fleet will be temporarily stationed in the Blue Harbor to strengthen the momentum, and with this guarantee, we can continue to talk!" ”

Huo Qiming on the side interjected with a smile: "These people in Langang are also really, don't they know that the strongest Heavenly King of the Federation is already in the Holy Blade Continent?!" If you want to talk about the strength of heads-up, Uncle Huo is not necessarily stronger than Xiao Mu! They are still looking for the near and far! No matter how strong the Dark Emperor is, can he be stronger than the white-clothed dragon?! Stronger than the old monster Zhao Xuan of the Zhao family! ”

Cen Mu smiled: "Brother Qiming, you dare to arrange Master Huo like this!" Of course, Master's presence is even more shocking, he now represents the entire Federation, and his influence is very important, and I am just a thug under his old man's command. ”

Huo Qiming added with a smile: "That's also the number one Heavenly King-level thug in the Federation!" ”

Such a gag made the atmosphere of the meeting a little more relaxed, at least not as serious and dignified as the front meeting.

Cen Mu continued to ask, "Su Ling, then what agreement did you reach with Langang?" ”

Su Ling flipped through some documents in front of him: "In fact, the price is not small, after all, Langang has taken advantage of the time and place, in order to support our group, my father and Mr. Solo have invested some money, I won't say much about the details of the transaction, just understand."

I'll talk about the obligations of the Blue Harbor, after learning the news of the Dark Emperor's personal conquest, the Blue Harbor will gather mercenary groups, and dispatch the living forces in the jurisdiction, send out reinforcements tonight, it is estimated that they will arrive in the Bounty Plains in three days, in addition, the Blue Harbor will declare war on the Dark Emperor tomorrow to support the Bounty Plains, so you still have to hold on for at least three days to get reinforcements. ”

Cen Mu smiled slightly and expressed his understanding: "It's okay, it's much better than I expected, Langang has already expressed his attitude." So, is there any news from your side? ”

Su Ling said faintly: "I don't know if you know the scale of this western expedition, the channel on the Langang side got the news, saying that it was pouring into the nest, I suspect that the target is the Bounty Plains, after all, you just ate Peter's army, it is a 10,000-strong regiment, and it is the strongest combat corps under the command of the Dark Emperor, and it was destroyed so quietly, it is conceivable that this is also a heavy blow to Gabriel!" ”

Catherine couldn't help but interject: "Actually, with my understanding of a group of troops, the biggest problem is whether anyone can face Gabriel directly, as for the others, I believe we can deal with it, at least there is no problem with defense." ”

Cen Mu bowed his head and said: "Catherine is right, although I have fought against the strongest Heavenly King of the Federation, but this continent belongs to a completely new system, and it cannot be measured by the standards of the Federation, so this is a variable!"

In addition, Gabriel's ability to make a decision to conquer in a very short period of time shows that he has a relatively in-depth understanding of the situation in Bounty Town, and it is likely that he has already mastered our secrets, so let the decisive battle break out early.

Now it seems that it is indeed not good for us, just came to the Holy Blade Continent, and before we could gain a firm foothold, we were targeted by the strongest forces in the continent, and poured out, which was really a bit unprepared!

Decisive in killing, this Gabriel really has a bit of a heroic character! ”
