Catherine stood in the center of the royal viewing platform, watching every move of the entire imperial capital, and since the viewing platform was the tallest building in the entire city, Catherine always had a desire to conquer when she looked down on the earth from it. Around the viewing platform, the human soldiers who had already entered the temporary positions did not care about the more than 80,000 warriors that the northern orc army had gathered, but instead focused all their attention on this beautiful woman in royal splendid clothing.

Today is destined to be an extraordinary day, when the Holy Alliance Empire will have its first female ruler, and Catherine will be crowned Queen, the first queen of this vast empire to be born as a commoner and without royal blood.

Although Orlando, Luke, and Catherine had agreed beforehand, Catherine could only become His Majesty the Emperor herself, and her descendants were not allowed to inherit the position, and once Catherine ceased to be His Majesty the Emperor, then the position must be returned to the heir who had Fernando's royal blood.

"Queen Catherine, let's start now. Red whispered in Catherine's ear, and the priest Maia stood beside him with a gold plate in both hands, and a crown and a scepter lay quietly on the plate.

Today, Red is dressed almost exactly like Master Ibel, and he wears a crown full of thorns on his head, which is called "The Faith of the Oracle", which has been handed down by Otto I, the first pope of the Church of Light. The black bishop's robe with gold trim worn by Red, and the pale yellow shawl embroidered with black tulips on his shoulders, were used by Frederick II, the nineteenth pope of the Church of Light and the greatest pope ever seen by the Church of Light. Frederick II was the first pope in the history of the Church of Light to crown the king of the time, marking the Church of Light's influence beyond worldly power.

With the war imminent, Catherine's coronation ceremony was naturally as simple as possible, but a few necessary procedures must be followed, otherwise the coronation ceremony will lose its sacred meaning because it is too child's play.

Red drew mystical magic spells in the air in front of his chest with both hands, and recited aloud verses in praise of the God of the Most High Light, and those magic spells shone with golden light, forming a magic circle in the air. As Red chanted and cast spells, there were more and more magic spells, and the magic circle became more and more complete.

According to the process, Red should release a "Praise of Light" magic, which is the same name as the book, which can make the target full of strength, more agile, and clear mind, bursting with infinite life force, but because Red's strength is really the worst archbishop in the history of the Church of Light, he can release this magic for enough time to make a person doze off.

Finally completed this magic, a white curtain of light rose into the sky, and Maia, who was standing behind Red's back and her hands were almost sore, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and took 2 steps forward with the plate, ready to cooperate with Red to carry out the most important process, bringing the crown and granting the scepter to Her Majesty Catherine, who was about to become the queen.

But at this critical moment, a series of rapid whistling sounds suddenly sounded in the sky in the distance, and soon there was a ** shout: "Enemy attack!"

Red stood there and almost cursed, as long as he waited a few more minutes, he could complete this coronation ceremony with more symbolic meaning than actual meaning, and it didn't matter how many orcs tossed it around. But at this critical moment, the orc's stone-throwing cart attacked, and Red himself was in the center of the attack, but the ceremony could not be interrupted no matter what, so Red had to pretend to be casual and sideways to pick up the Bauhinia crown from the plate.

"Woo!" A stone bullet of more than 100 kilograms fell quickly from the sky, if nothing else, its landing point was where Red and Catherine were standing, Red raised the Bauhinia crown with both hands steadily, but his eyes still involuntarily glanced at the sky.

Seeing that this stone bullet was getting closer and closer to him, Red's heart was about to jump out, but Catherine didn't move, Maiya didn't move, and he, as an archbishop, naturally Red, couldn't move. At this critical moment, a colorful light curtain suddenly appeared in the sky above the royal viewing platform, enveloping everyone on the viewing platform.

Red breathed a sigh of relief, and put the crown on Catherine's head with both hands, and the stone bullet hit the light curtain in the air. The soft light curtain suddenly burst into a strong light, and a powerful magical power emerged without reservation, "Bang!" The stone projectile of more than 100 kilograms made a crisp sound, turned into countless fragments, and disappeared into the air.

"Woo! Woo!" Two more stone bullets flew whizzing, but this time Red was not worried at all, he knew that as long as the magic defense array of this royal viewing platform was activated, let alone a few stone bullets, even level 9 magic could be completely defended. However, Red still felt a little guilty in his heart, after all, he was the most cowardly archbishop in the history of the Church of Light, this matter was simply a shame, I don't know if Iber was still alive, he would teach himself a hard lesson.

Catherine took the "Eternal Morning Light" scepter from Red's hand and held it high, although at this moment the orc catapult began to attack violently, but the human warriors in private still broke out into strong shouts, these shouts came one after another, and soon merged into one sentence: "Long live Your Majesty!"

Catherine looked at the people around her with great ambition, she finally stepped on the peak of the power of this empire, although she did not have much power now, but it marked a new step in Catherine's whole plan, with this queen's identity, Catherine can carry out all her plans without scruples.

Catherine raised a small white hand and shook it slightly in the air, and the cheers in the sky immediately stopped in unison in this gesture. Catherine looked around with her big bright eyes, and then began her coronation speech loudly: "My people, the orcs have attacked again. I believe you can see that the scale of the orc's attack this time is unprecedented. But I'm very pleased, because this will be the last fight of the orcs before they die!"

"Yes, thanks to your efforts, we have repelled the attacks of the orcs again and again, consuming their precious combat power. As we all know, the number of orcs is far inferior to that of us humans, and this time they gave everything they could to attack, although the momentum was huge, and the army exceeded 700,000 at the most, but this was all their strength. ”

"I'm sure your companions who have fought in Thor's Fortress have also told you that when the orcs fought in Thor's Fortress, they used a lot of old people and children. Even in the imperial capital, their army still had a large number of improvised civilians. The orcs use their future to gamble on today's fate, as long as we repel this attack of theirs, the orcs will inevitably retreat, their remaining strength is no longer able to maintain the continuation of the entire race, whether it is hunting, grazing, defense, they need enough orc males, and the future hope of these orcs is consumed by us little by little in the emperor. ”

"Whew!" just as Catherine was speaking loudly, a large number of stone bullets flew whizzing. The human soldiers relied on those temporary bunkers to dodge, and for a while there were heavy casualties, but even if their legs were crushed by stone bullets, no one snorted, and everyone still listened to Catherine's speech in silence. Humanity's own catapults soon began to return fire, and all that could be heard above the central square was the whistling sound and Catherine's crisp feminine voice.

"Fight, my warriors! every orc we kill today will diminish their hopes for tomorrow. This is no longer an ordinary war, but a fight for the future of our humanity. As long as life doesn't stop, the battle never stops. Warriors, fight for our freedom!"

"Fight for freedom!" The entire central square erupted into a terrifying sound at this moment, and the huge sound directly covered the sky over the entire imperial capital, and could not be calmed down for a long time. The orc's stone-throwing attack slowly stopped, of course, this was not the reason for the noise, but because the orc army was dispatched, and the hand-to-hand combat was about to begin.

Of course, the Beast Emperor knows the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, and now the Orcs can't stop in this war of attrition and must fight resolutely, but for the sake of the future of the Barbarian Bear Clan, the Beast Emperor still made some arrangements. The Mammoth Legion, which was originally intended to be used to attack, was transferred out of the city again, because the Beast Emperor and the Prophet Evan reached a consensus that even if the rest of the Brute Bear Clan's armies were exhausted, as long as the 25,000 Mammoth Legion were still there, the Brute Bear Clan could control the Southern Talon Prairie, and they could deter other clans, and they did not have to worry about repeating the footsteps of the Wild Wolf Clan decades ago.

It was precisely with this intention that the Beast Emperor transferred all the troops that could be mobilized at hand. The Wild Bear Clan dispatched a total of 280,000 troops this time, of which 15,000 were left in charge of logistics in the North Talon Grassland, another 15,000 were stationed in Thor's Fortress, and 20,000 were responsible for the logistics support of the South Talon Grassland. During the attack on Thor's Fortress, 10,000 people were lost, almost 20,000 occupied Sunrise City, and the Battle of Fernando was the most devastating, with a total of more than 80,000 people.

Now that the Beast Emperor had left the 25,000 men of the Mammoth Legion and more than 5,000 wolf cavalry outside the city, there were only 80,000 of his descendants who could devote themselves to the battle on the royal viewing platform. However, of course, this is not all of the orc army, the other clans of the orcs have also gathered 100,000 troops under the dual effect of the force of the Barbarian Bear Clan and the wealth accumulated by humans, and the entire 180,000 orc warriors have left 30,000 people to control the Beicheng District, the imperial capital that has been captured so far, and the other 150,000 are all invested in this attack by the Beast Emperor.
