Chapter 02: Two Emperors
Sea Cliff City, the cliff-top palace.
Idir didn't know whether it was excitement or excitement, and his originally pale face was flushed.
"I said a long time ago, I must enter Arantis first, as long as I kill Grantham and that old woman, the other countries will definitely support me as the emperor, but you have chosen to divide your troops, what now?"
As soon as the news of Locke's defeat came back, Idil looked a little angry.
There are also one person sitting on the left and right sides of the throne of Idir, the Norman king Frans on the left, and the old man of the Sea Clan sitting on the right. The old man's scaly face was already wrinkled, with two short horns protruding slightly on his forehead, and a crimson coral staff in his hand.
"It's not that you're too confident that you'll be able to appease Isaac and Kil'dan with a single letter. According to Prime Minister Lu Lan's opinion, before conquering the Terran countries, he should not take the initiative to attack Alandis at all. Frans showed no mercy to Idir.
Idir did not show any weakness, "How much time and troops will it take to conquer the Terran countries one by one? I order the withdrawal of the Sea Tribes and the Kingdom forces of Rouge and attack Alandis with all their might. ”
Frans snorted softly, and the old man of the Sea Clan squinted as if he hadn't heard at all.
Idir was so angry that he suddenly stood up from his seat, blushing and yelling, "You have to understand who is the master of this place, and I am the Bright Emperor of the Human Race!"
"We say you are, you are. If our Sea Clan says that you are not, you can change someone else to be the Emperor of the Terran Race at any time!" Lu Lan still did not open his slightly closed eyes when he said this, and his tone was full of endless arrogance.
Idil looked at the Norman monarch in shock, only to find that Frans had not seen him.
Idill sat back in his chair in dismay. He was so excited about the landing of the Sea Clan that he thought he had finally waited for the opportunity to unify the entire Empire of Light. At this moment, he finally understood that no matter how much victory he achieved on the battlefield outside, it had nothing to do with him Idil, and he, the Emperor of Light, was just a puppet of others.
......
Far away in Arrantis, there is another emperor who is just as tormented as Idir, Grantham.
Although he still has the support of the three kingdoms compared to Idil, but in the Three Kingdoms, Lu Zhi has almost perished, and Holo is also unable to protect himself, but Locke still has a chance to breathe, but he can't take care of him at all.
The dignified Emperor of Light is now only a lonely city of Arantis, and this city does not belong to him yet, and the civil ministers and generals in the main hall have already quarreled, but no one has come to consult him as an emperor.
A cough came from behind Grantham, and the hall fell silent. He always knew that this city belonged to hers, the queen mother who had already arranged everything for him.
The empress's graceful voice then came from the beaded curtain behind the emperor's throne, "Prince, you have heard the opinions of all the ministers, I want to know what the prince plans for the next battle?"
Prince Gallaher muttered, "The Sea Clan army is fierce, but it is not invincible, as evidenced by the battle report that has just been sent back from Locke. Although the imperial army has lost two battles in a row, it is not without the strength to fight again, 200,000 city guards and 100,000 forbidden troops are on standby at any time, the Northland army has also been rebuilt, plus the remnants of the soldiers and noble private troops who retreated into the city, Alantis still has 700,000 Terran elites who can fight at any time; ”
Prince Gallaher's impassioned analysis caused everyone in the hall, including Grantham, to nod their heads.
"With the prince here, the city defense palace of Arantis is not worried at all, but how to drive these foreign armies away and regain the lost territory of the empire?"
This time, Prince Gallah was no longer so confident, and he muttered for a long time before he slowly spoke, "If we lose the geographical advantage of the city defense, we may have a chance of winning with the other party in five or five, if we want to completely defeat the Sea Clan army, we need to have hundreds of thousands of reinforcements to cooperate with the imperial army." ”
Prince Gallaher's words fell, and the atmosphere in the hall became solemn again.
The Bright Emperor's family is now alone, and hundreds of thousands of reinforcements are easy to say, but there is nowhere to find them. The Holo Kingdom is still struggling to deal with the 300,000 orc army, how can there be more troops to aid Alandis? Although the Locke army has won a new battle, it will never dare to draw troops to help at this time. As for Isaac and Kildan, they helped Locke with cold lips and teeth, and for the Bright Emperor's family, they wanted the city of Anantis to be destroyed and consume some more Sea Clan's army?
Prime Minister Gul Noro suddenly spoke, "Actually, we are not without reinforcements, don't forget that the headquarters of the Church of Light is still in the imperial capital?
After Gurnoro finished speaking, the hall was suddenly silent.
After a long time, the emperor's voice came out again from behind the bead curtain, "I know, today's palace discussion is here." ”
......
In the Sanctuary of Light, Pope Cylius V had been praying in front of the statue of Light for a whole afternoon, and the holy white light had been bathing his body.
When the Pope had finished his day's prayers, the old recumbent Viktor stepped forward and whispered.
There was a faint smile on the corner of the Pope's mouth, "Of course, we in the Church of Light can't stay out of the matter, but we have to wait for that woman to take the initiative to speak." This war tore away the last fig leaf of the Bright Imperial Family. ”
"Then I will inform the Bright Sanctuary to prepare in advance, and the several knights who have withdrawn from the Norman and Rouge dioceses have been holding back the fire in their hearts!"
The Pope nodded, "Go, let them prepare to bring the wrath of the gods upon those aliens!
Victor slowly walked down the steps with the Pope in his arms, and said casually: "I heard the Flame Saintess say that a Seal Breaking Stone appeared in the magic array at the foot of the Holy Sword Peak, and it was precisely because of that Seal Breaking Stone that the seal set by the various clans on the Azure Crystal Palace back then was broken, and it gave the Sea Clan the opportunity to break through the shackles of the deep sea and land on the continent. ”
The Pope sighed softly, "That Seal Breaking Stone may be the one that the Imperial Family lost back then, and this can be regarded as retribution, so that the revenge of the Sea Clan will be the first to fall on our human race." ”
"Shall we unite with the other tribes, then?" asked Victor tentatively.
The Pope shook his head helplessly, "It's useless, the internal situation of my human race is already like this, not to mention the other races, I'm afraid that the internal affairs of the Star and Moon Guardian have already quarreled now." ”
Victor stopped talking.
The Pope was still muttering to himself: "The revenge of the Sea Clan, though tricky, is not what I am really worried about, and this continent is not of much value to them compared to the vast ocean. The black hand hidden behind the scenes, the people who let them out are truly terrifying......"
