346 Internal and external troubles
There are three lines of defense in Grey's Clip, and the defender generals were seriously injured when the first batch of monsters attacked.
In desperation, the deputy had to lead the defenders back to the second line of defense.
He stood aside and looked at the general who was lying on the bed recuperating from his wounds, "Lord Watson, two percent of the defenders lost their combat effectiveness in the first wave of invasion, and the casualties were as high as one percent. With our current strength, I'm afraid we won't last more than a week. ”
Watson slowly opened his eyes, his purple lips trembled slightly, and he responded in a low voice: "The rear is the territory of our Victorian family, I'm afraid the kingdom army won't come." ”
The deputy was shocked, "This, why is this!" Aren't the Victorians on the side of the Vought royal family?! Moreover, the territory of the Victorian family is also the territory of the kingdom of Houliwater! ”
"Huh~" Watson chuckled, "This is the aristocratic struggle." Now that Solomon's family is powerful, where do the kingdom troops who are guarding near the royal city dare to leave? If they send troops to reinforce them, the Solomonic family will definitely take advantage of the situation. ”
The deputy clenched his fist and slammed it on the table, "Damn, those people of the Solomon family know how to fight for power. They also didn't want to think about how much territory the kingdom would lose if Grey's Clamp fell. ”
At this point, the deputy suddenly had an idea, "Then, isn't there still your Victoria family leading the army, they will definitely reinforce it, right?" ”
Watson waved weakly, "Don't count on them. Now that the situation in the kingdom is turbulent, with the character of the head of the family, he must try his best to preserve the family heritage, gather the soldiers and withdraw to the territory of the Sigma fortress. ”
"I don't know from the state of affairs in Victor County. Now the great nobles have retreated to the Sigmar Barrier, where there is an enchantment that was built with all the power of the country hundreds of years ago. It is the bottom line that the great nobles and the royal family cannot touch. ”
"Unless the Demon Beast is likely to break through the Sigma barrier, the great nobles and royal families will not abandon their previous suspicions. As for Gray's Clip...... Hehe, even if the entire province of Gray is falling, they will not send the main force to support. ”
The deputy slowly slumped into his chair, "Then, what's the point of us staying here?" ”
Watson felt his eyelids feel a little heavy, closed his eyes and continued, "Of course it makes sense. We need to buy time for our family until they have completely evacuated their soldiers. ”
The deputy's eyes were blank, "The hundreds of thousands of people in the province of Gregory, and we are all outcasts?" ”
Watson showed a wry smile, "For you and my family, one more moment of guard, and one more chance for them to escape." Okay, don't talk about it. Call in the healer and continue to heal me. ”
The deputy walked out of the house in silence and let the healer in.
……
[Seven Blades Imperial Soul] and others stepped on the dots all the way forward, lighting up all the simple teleportation altars privately made by players along the way for guild members to use.
All of them had silver-level strength, and it only took two days to reach the province of Gray at full speed.
Du Wei, who didn't know that Gray's trap was in danger, did not set a time limit for everyone. He also paved the way for the development of the Hidden Order in Victor County and gave money to three adventurers to promote it, while Althea used the Teleportation Altar to reach the southernmost area that the player had explored.
Began to recruit believers here as the representative of the Divine Hidden Society.
With her gold-level strength, she quickly attracted the attention of the local Holy Church, but the Holy Church could not find out Asya's identity anyway.
After many inquiries, I learned a small amount of information about the Hidden Society.
The local priests only thought it was some small new church. Seeing that the other party had no intention of building a sanctuary or other similar landmark buildings, he only reported the matter to the higher-ups in line with the principle of not taking the initiative to provoke powerful transcendents.
The High Council of the Holy Church made a thorough investigation of it, and learned that the Divine Hidden Society had no roots in the Sigma barriers, so they ignored it as a small church wandering in the countryside.
In this way, the Hidden Society began to take root in the southern provinces.
The followers are mainly adventurers, and as soon as they join the religion, they will be protected by Althea, and receive a powerful blessing that can last for several days, which can not only improve their combat effectiveness, but also defend them against a deadly attack below the silver level.
Although this would consume a small amount of her mental power, it could be used to make Du Wei observe them.
Soura, who has been exercising in another world for a while, returns. The old man who used to cower turned into a black knight with gold-level strength.
Even Du Wei was startled by this change, and Chuangpu's white muscles clumped into pieces. If someone dragged him out of the Secret Law Tower now, unless Du Wei and Althea did it themselves, they wouldn't even be able to move him.
Du Wei was not sure what the consequences would be if he threw the people of this world into another world. After all, the speed of time in that other world is different from that here, and if the old man dies over there, he will really lose his wife and lose his soldiers, so he will test the water with the most slippery chicken thief's Chuangpu.
Now it seems to be a wise move. Using this method, you will definitely be able to cultivate a group of local new forces for yourself that are no less powerful than the players.
With another new force, Du Wei ordered Sopo to go to the west of Houliwater and preach as a substitute for the Hidden Society.
Having seen Du Wei's vast supernatural powers, Chuangpu is now full of loyalty, and he blows up the golden retriever on his forehead and pats his chest to ensure that the task is completed.
Shirley Noel saw the changes in Chuangpu and had a new understanding of Du Wei's abilities, and it was right to choose to follow him.
After Shirley's repeated pleas, she was placed on the second training list, but only if the two parties reached a pact of allegiance at the highest level.
Shirley responded on the spot, and was sent to another world to practice with Gartha, Iris, and Benjeno.
A team of wandering players stumbles into the territory of the kingdom of Fredonel, and arrives at the Gate of Truth in another country.
[Tentacle Surprise Hasta] looked at the Gate of Truth from a walled rampart, "That door can't be said to have nothing to do with the portal we entered, it's exactly the same!" ”
"Look at it! The door is open! The other shouted as he pointed to the door of truth.
Everyone saw a group of strangely shaped creatures slowly walking out of it, all of them wearing masks engraved with mysterious runes, and they looked like people with black bodies.
The gate under the city wall opened, and a large number of captured demonic beasts were expelled into it.
Those strange creatures saw the monster and roared and attacked.
Some pulled out illusory spears from their chests and shot the native demonic beasts, while others cracked their masks and bit the native demonic beasts. There are a variety of attacks, but they are all different from what the player knows from the world.
It's as if these strange creatures have invaded from another world.
