Chapter 82: Shock
Contact with the Grand Duke Gustav, naturally, was a Baroque affair. To his surprise, Gustav had heard of his name from a friend. And that friend of Gustav is still an old acquaintance of the Baroque...... General Schaumberg of Paddington.
As a young man, Gustav had studied at the Padja Academy in Paddington, where he specialized in fighting and fighting, and happened to be in the same department as Schumberg, and the two met and became good friends. Even after many twists and turns, the friendship between the two was never broken! Even when he was first attacked by the army of darkness, Gustav was ready to ask for help from Schaumberg. It's just that the dark forces are eroding so fast that people can't prepare for defense before they are completely defeated. And Gustav, whose family and relatives were almost dead, could only follow the fleeing crowd to move again and again, and finally came to the city in front of him.
If it weren't for the Holy See Templar Order and the Emperor of Samoa abandoning the commoners and fleeing on their own, Gustav would not have picked himself up. It wasn't until nearly 100,000 civilians fell into despair after learning the truth that he suddenly woke up and began to organize a fight against the massacre of the dark army, and he has persisted for so long!
The Baroque admired this very ordinary-looking middle-aged man, such a person could be called a true hero and leader!
Baroque had nothing to hide from such a man, telling him his thoughts, and solemnly asking him to join the Tri-Clan Alliance! Baroque said: "Archduke Gustavus, with all due respect, the Apocalypse has abandoned you, and the Emperor of Samoa has abandoned you. In fact, you are now useless. Even if you are lucky enough to get out of the crisis and return to the Emperor's rule, you ...... Do you think the Emperor of Samoa will accept you? He has done something shameless, and he will be afraid to face you. And can an emperor who is afraid of facing his abandoned subjects retain his dignity and his throne unless the emperor apologizes to you, begs for forgiveness, and abdicates automatically. Otherwise he won't get your forgiveness, right?"
Gustav nodded. Baroque was right, and even the anger in the hearts of these outcasts was excessive, even if the emperor apologized and abdicated. Nor can they be easily forgiven!
"But do you think the emperor will give up his imperial power? Would the emperor, who did not hesitate to abandon 100,000 civilians in order to flee for his life, be so willing to give up everything? Since he could not do it, then it was still you who were wronged in the end! I can imagine that if you went to the emperor again, you would be angry and ashamed, and at the same time afraid of facing him. Anything can be done!"
Gustav knows the emperor of Samoa too well, and the baroque analysis is penetrating, that majesty is ruthless, and can really do terrible things! As for the Holy See of the Apocalypse, hehe, Gustav knows them too well, a bunch of corrupt and ruthless fellows from above. I'm afraid that all the actions made by the emperor have been secretly promoted by them, how can they help a group of poor civilians?
In fact, there are not many options anymore, in order to survive. With less than 100,000 people left, there is a definite need to find strong allies. Undoubtedly, dragons. Elves, and orcs extending an olive branch are the only hope!
The dragons and orc warriors who joined the defense of the city greatly relieved the pressure on the civilian warriors, and they finally had a chance to breathe for a few days! The attack of the dark army subsided a little, and only then was they able to turn their attention to the dragons, orcs, and elves.
The reality is so dramatic and ironic that they were abandoned by their own emperor and the Holy See, and in the end, when they were in danger, they were rescued by their former enemies. For a time, the human heart is really mixed.
Gustav looked at the civilians around him. Shaking his head and sighing softly, he asked Baroque: "Baroque shaman." What are the conditions for joining the alliance of your three clans? You know, we have nothing. And I'll need to talk to everyone before I can get back to you. ”
"Hehe, you don't need to pay any extra money, if you join the alliance, the status will be equal. From now on, you will have the strong support and support of our three clans. Together, we will fight against the armies of darkness...... And, of course, the Holy See and other enemies. Baroque said happily, he didn't expect Gustav to be so happy. Although Gustav said that he would go and negotiate with others, Baroque already knew from the admiring and adoring eyes of the people around him that Gustav's prestige here was extremely high, and no one would oppose his decision at all.
Baroque said something, and Gustav couldn't hear it! If they wanted to survive, they 100,000 civilians would inevitably need strong support, and the only thing that could support them in front of them was the Tri-Clan Alliance. In Gustav's mind, even if the Samoan Emperor and the Holy See abandoned them once, if they could come back to save them at this time, he would still not hesitate to choose the side of the Holy See, after all, he was a human race.
But the reality is so cruel, they were abandoned, and the Holy See Knights Templar and the Emperor of Samoa went without hesitation and ruthlessly. Even now I am afraid that they will be completely forgotten! The Baroque is right, if they escape and go to the emperor and the Holy See. It is really possible for the embarrassed and shameless emperor and the generals of the Holy See to make some kind of terrifying move and completely destroy them.
There was no choice, there was only one way to go! At some point, Gustav was surrounded by a crowd of warrior leaders he had selected from among the civilian population, and these people were embraced by everyone because they were brave and strong in battle.
"Archduke Gustav, promise them, what way can we go at this moment except to form an alliance with the three tribes? The emperor and the Holy See have abandoned us, so why should we retain our ethereal loyalty and faith? When we are in danger, it is the dragons, elves, and orcs who come to save us, not the emperor, not the Holy See, and the ......gods of light that we worship!" these people shouted in unison, looking eagerly at Gustavus. They were completely heartbroken, and even their faith was shaken!
Gustav sighed again, made his choice, and was just about to say yes, when he heard a sudden roar of beasts in the distance, and the neat 'click, click' sound of steel crashing. I saw the dark army that had just died down and relaunched its offensive. And the power of this attack made them change color!
It was nearly a thousand low, stout dwarven warriors, wrapped in iron cans, and even their eyes covered with a steel net, marching in unison steps, with war hammers in hand, and roaring forward. And around them, nearly a hundred fierce beasts with terrifying and powerful power followed them.
The people suddenly rioted, they knew too well the elite of the dark army in front of them. The fallen Dark Dwarves, and the nearly 100 powerful Dark Phantom Beasts, had inflicted the heaviest casualties on them more than once. Those few times people actually used their lives to fill in, and they barely blocked the attacks of the Iron Dwarves and the Bloodthirsty Phantom Beasts. Now these horrible killing gods are here again, and humanity hasn't even had time to catch their breath.
The beastly warriors were undaunted, flapping their Thunderhawk wings and flying into the air, staring at the approaching dark elite. The dragon is ready to breathe dragon breath, and the elven druids and rangers are ready to rush forward and kill them just for Baroque's orders!
No one dares to underestimate the steel battle array of the fallen dwarves, the dwarves also have their own special battle array strength, if you are not careful, slaying dragons and killing beast armored warriors is not a joke. Baroque smiled, meaningfully. He's just waiting for this moment!
With a wave of his hand, stopping the eager Dragon King Obasekita and his beastly armored warriors, Baroque smiled softly: "Don't worry, let me deal with them!
He walked alone towards the 1,000-man team of dwarves and nearly 100 phantom beasts that had fallen into darkness. The storage rings in his hand flickered one after another, and the black and inconspicuous wooden pillars were thrown out by him, falling far away within a radius of hundreds of meters, faintly occupying nodes in six directions. It was also at this time in the sea of souls that he received a reminder from the totem beast Rak............ At that time, Sylrutius was preparing to break through the protective shield of the Tree of Life in the Misty Forest!
Through Rak, Baroque talks to Syllucius from afar and drinks off the dark elves. Syllucius was forced to abandon his assault on the Misty Forest and turn back to meet Baroque.
Hmph, how could the Baroque let it go so easily after being plotted and suffering such a big loss? Even if you want to talk about it again, let Silrutius pay some price first!
Both elves and dragons have always despised the orcs, after all, the orcs have been in decline for so long that they have forgotten all the special powers of this race that once dominated the entire continent! Today, Baroque shocked them, and they suddenly realized how lucky they were to ally with the orcs!
The totem pole made of the core of the six trees of life was thrown according to the position of the six-pointed star, and the Baroque naturally did not look at the elves with strange and ugly faces, let alone how strange and ugly they were, and took care of themselves to meet the steel dwarves and dark phantom beasts. He began to chant the shaman's incantation, and at the same time as a milky white halo emanated from his body, six black totem poles suddenly underwent a magical change, and a white light suddenly erupted, becoming crystal clear. The six rays of luminous light blended with the white light on Baroque's body, forming a circle in mid-air, with a six-pointed star pattern in the center, completely surrounding the fallen dwarves and phantom beasts within a radius of hundreds of meters!
Whether it is an elf, a human, or a dragon, when they come into contact with the white light, they all feel extremely comfortable and warm, and those with injuries on their bodies magically heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, even if they are not injured, they are also in high spirits. Only the army of darkness retreated in terror, as if the ice and snow had met flames.
The trapped dwarves and phantom beasts let out a terrible roar like a dying beast, and they hated, feared, and resented the damn white light, because it would hurt their souls and make them miserable!
At that moment, everyone was shocked———— Baroque had subdued nearly a thousand fallen dwarves and dark phantom beasts with the power of just one person! Was this just Baroque's own strength, or did all orc shamans have such magical and terrifying powers?
Maybe the orcs aren't as vulnerable as they think!(To be continued.) )
