Chela led an army of orcs to capture the Emerald City without bloodshed, and apart from some casualties caused by the attack on the Ice Temple, their main backbone was barely damaged.

The Emerald City is the capital of Northern Xinjiang Province and one of the most important fortress cities in Northern Xinjiang Province.

Once the Emerald City was occupied, a large part of the entire Northern Frontier Province was exposed to the Orc Peak.

Orcs are brutal creatures, and even if they treat their own kind, they will often engage in large-scale bloody slaughter.

For the human beings who compete with them, they will not be polite, and if they have the slightest opportunity, they will slaughter the humans in the south, using them to destroy the foundation of the human kingdom and reduce the foundation of the human race.

After the orc army broke through the city, except for a few useful craftsmen, the entire human beings in the Emerald City were killed by the orcs one by one, and all of them were slaughtered.

Except for some citizens, the mercenaries reacted super quickly and successfully escaped from the danger. Only Malouda and some of the Templars managed to break through the siege, and by the way, he protected 20,000 civilians and withdrew from the Emerald City safely.

The remaining more than 80,000 ordinary civilians were all killed in the brutal massacre of the orcs. On the very day after their celebration, they all died at the hands of the orcs in two or three days, before they had time to rejoice.

After Malouda broke through the siege, he immediately withdrew to Loya City overnight with the remaining knights and civilians.

Luoya City is located in front of Luoya Canyon, less than 80 miles away from Niujiao Fortress, and is also a relatively important city on the trade route of Northern Xinjiang.

Merchants would restock their supplies and recuperate here as they passed through the Loya Gorge.

The population of Loya City is small, only more than 20,000 people, and even if some supplies are stored, it will not be able to support the 20,000 or 30,000 fleeing civilians under Malouda's command.

After the orc attack, as soon as Malouda broke through, he sent his knights to go through the Loya Gorge and deliver the news back to the imperial capital.

The herald's knights had just entered the Horn Fortress and brought the news of the fall of the Emerald City into the Horn Fortress, which terrified the defenders of the Horn Fortress.

The defenders of the Bullhorn Fortress were two brigades of the City Defense Army, and the commander of the fortress was also the deputy commander of the City Defense Army, George Rhodes.

George was an eleventh level warrior and a member of the city defense team who disagreed with Cowbert. It was because of their disagreement that George and his cronies were ostracized by Corbett and left the Emerald City.

After listening to the Templars' urgent military information, George, with his years of military experience, immediately sensed that something was wrong, and almost immediately closed the Bullhorn Fortress, and took control of Colbert's cronies, throwing them into prison, and firmly controlling the defenders of the fortress.

He then sent his knights to the capital with the Templar knights to report the news.

Just as Malouda was sending the knights to deliver the news, the Imperial Center got the news.

The news came from the Church of the Ice and Snow Goddess, and the reason why the Church was able to know the news for more than ten days was because there was an information transmission array in the Ice and Snow Temple.

This kind of information transmission array is a magic prop refined by the Ice and Snow Goddess, and it is a kind of magic rune array above the legend. It uses the principle of a portal to quickly deliver relatively light letters to the church headquarters.

After Edgar retreated to the Ice Temple, he first passed on the news of the Orc's capture of the Emerald City.

Almost at the same time, the priest of the temple in the national capital got the news.

Because of the suddenness of the message, it was almost unbelievable for the pastor who received it. They immediately sent a confirmation message to Edgar, and it wasn't until Edgar sent letters three times in a row, telling the story clearly, that the temple priest believed the terrible news.

Late that night, while Emperor Philip was still asleep, he was woken up by the Secretary of the Interior to learn the terrible news.

The Orcs launched a surprise attack on the Festival of Celebration, which made the king of the Hadmar Empire and the church very angry, especially the death of Edgar and Burton, two gold-level professionals, in the Northern Frontier Province, which made the center of the empire extremely painful.

In particular, Edgar's letters lashed out at Corbert, the commander of the Emerald City defenses, and even thought he had defected to the orcs.

In Edgar's letters, Colbert's five major crimes are enumerated.

The first of these is the exclusion of dissidents, not only the deputy commander George, but even the former lord of the Emerald City, Ogris, was forced to leave the Emerald City by him.

The second was his recklessness, not only in the city defense army, but also in bribing thieves, assassinating political opponents, sending soldiers, attacking the private territories of nobles, and indiscriminately lynching people.

The third is dereliction of duty, he hardly arranged any work to defend the city, and on the night of celebration, the city defense army was undisciplined, and the orcs easily climbed the city gate.

Fourth, and most importantly, he fled almost without a fight. After the orc attack, he immediately abandoned his duties and left the Emerald City with some of his cronies. If Colbert can play decisively and cooperate with Edgar's Templars, it is very likely that the orc attack will be broken.

Fifth, Corbett behaves secretively and has ambitions to be independent of the Empire.

Edgar's words were polite and courteous, and since he had died in the Emerald City, the knights of the Ice Temple had done their duty.

So Philip, the emperor of the Hadma Empire, chose to believe the contents of Edgar's letters almost immediately.

He sent his attendant overnight and summoned William Sam, Duke of Lion, who was still asleep, to his bedchamber.

Duke Lion's Nest was barely fully clothed, and was hurriedly pulled out of the bed by the attendant and taken into Philip's bedchamber in embarrassment.

Philip threw Edgar's letter on the face of Duke Lion and scolded: "Originally, Colbert has been impeached by many people, and the empire is ready to remove him, but because of your insistence on preserving, I gave him one last chance."

Now you can see what Coubert did?

He actually let the orcs occupy the Emerald City and slaughter 80,000 people of the Hadmar Empire.

The devotees of the Ice Goddess were slaughtered for no reason, and the Day of Celebration was also chosen, the most important holiday for the Empire, which was a naked provocation to the Empire.

Colbert, the sinner of the Empire, whose crimes were enough to put him on the stake with a thousand knives and burned at the stake.

What responsibilities do you have as Cowbart's protector?"
