Chapter 255: The Prelude to the War

March 8, 2014 in the New Calendar of the Gods.

It's a special day.

On this day, the Elf Queen, the Sea Emperor, Ran, Ignorance, the Beast Prophet, the Beast King, the three demigods of the Orc, the Dwarf Patriarch, and the two demigods of the Human Race were invited by the Dragon Emperor to drive to Buzhou Mountain.

On the same day, Martin Wig, the king of mercenaries, went up to the cliff.

Also on the same day, Li Xie officially sent troops to neighboring countries, and he was not subject to surrender, but only changed his surname.

On this special day, Buzhou Mountain is covered with a layer of mystery, and the cliff of ten thousand people has attracted countless speculations, and between the south of Sunflower City and the cemetery of the gods, between the Tudor Empire and the Anjou Empire, and between the east of the East Sea and the Endless Forest, countless killings are being carried out.

The evil army has now expanded to 200,000 people, the Wang army has expanded to 400,000, and the tiger army has been added to 100,000.

The 700,000 troops were divided into three routes: Reddy Gaga was the commander-in-chief of the Tiger Army, leading the troops to attack the small countries south of Sunflower City, Kano was the commander-in-chief of the royal army, sending troops to the northern Tudor dynasties, and Jack was the commander of the army, and Fandi was the commander-in-chief of the evil army, and the two led the troops to attack the east of the East China Sea.

In the following time, the three armies continued to attack the city and conquer the city, and the strange phenomenon was that many Kirov airships in the sky continued to shuttle between Sunflower City and various battlefields, and countless prisoners were transported to Sunflower City.

The civil war in the human kingdom initiated by the evil king is still going on, and some people in the human kingdom can no longer sit still.

The inner courtyard of the Royal Palace of the Anjou Empire.

The Emperor of the Anjou Empire, Redice the Great, sat in a pavilion with three other people sitting and several servants standing.

The other three people seated, like Reddis the Great, with dragon robes and crowns, but they were the Texas Great of the Blois Empire, the Hudson Great of the Lancastrian Empire, and the Mossack of the Plantagenet Empire.

The heads of state of the four empires gathered in one pavilion, just for Li Xie.

Emperor Reddis looked at the three of them and said, "Don't hide it from the three, the beast clan is about to move, and there are faint signs of attacking the human race, but at this time, Li Xie is sending troops everywhere, what is the purpose?"

The Texas Emperor said: "His purpose, Brother Reddis, do you really care? It is better to care about the safety of our four countries! Now Li Xie's forces, it seems that it is easy to defeat any of us, only if the four of us join forces, can we have a chance of winning, Brother Reddis called us, isn't that what it means? It is better to get straight to the point." ”

The other two emperors both nodded, what kind of battle between the human race and the beast race, although they cared, where was there a high degree of concern for their own safety?

Li Xie attacked the surrounding small countries this time, and he was not surrendered, he should only have his surname, and he would not leave the royal families, that is, he forced the royal families to fight to the death.

It is precisely because of this that the four empires are so nervous to come to a meeting of the heads of state.

Emperor Reddis sighed and said helplessly, "Do you know how much strength Li Xie has?"

"Brother Reddis, please. ”

"Li Xie has two ninth-order summoners and two tenth-order sword masters, one of whom is said to be about to become a holy sword master, and the number of troops does not need to be said. In addition, Li Xie's own strength, whether he is a demigod or not is still up for debate, but he now has the Holy Beast Nether Bone Dragon! Such a strength, in fact, without the need for an army, he can sweep through our four empires. ”

Emperor Mosak frowned and pondered, and was a little angry: "In this way, he is at least the holy level, hmph, the holy level is competing with us for the world, and he is not afraid of forces outside the country to sanction him?"

Hudson the Great shook his head and said, "This may be the problem. There are unspoken rules in the human realm, and the saint level and above must be separated from the concept of the state, otherwise, if there is a war with a foreign race, it may cause a racial war at any time. Although it is an unspoken rule, there seems to be some force enforcing this unwritten rule. Li Xie's strength, will it not reach the holy level?"

The Emperor of Texas sneered: "He is a saint, since someone will sanction him, before sanctioning him, we have to think about our own safety." It is already a matter of time before Li Xie conquers the central region of the human kingdom, and it is conservatively estimated that it will only take one year to completely change the surname of the central region to evil, and at that time, will he attack Anjou first, or will he attack me Blois first? Could it be that he unifies the central region and does not want to unify the human kingdom? Hmph!"

"What do you mean by Brother Texas?"

"What do I mean? Why should we be so suspicious of each other? Rather than being broken one by one, it is better for us to join forces, and he will send troops to one of them, and the other three will attack from three sides, to see how he can take care of everything. ”

Redice nodded and smiled: "I mean, like all the kings, in this way, we can make an alliance, but there are not only four of us, but one more." ”

"Who?"

"In the next. A person from the inner courtyard walked towards the pavilion and said with a smile: "All the gentlemen are well." ”

Except for Reddis, the other three emperors looked at the visitor in surprise: "Mercedes!"

The person who came was Mercedes VII, which was also the reason why the three emperors were surprised, because Mercedes VII was not with Li Xie?

But the three emperors immediately understood the key, and they all bowed to Mercedes VII, laughing and not saying a word.

Mercedes VII sat down and said, "My situation, you know, so there is no need to say more. The covenant between our five parties still needs to be kept secret, and as for the movements on Li Xie's side, I will inform you as soon as possible. ”

The four nodded, and Texas sighed: "Although you are the emperor, you have raised a white-eyed wolf." ”

Mercedes VII smiled bitterly: "Brother Texas, why should you mock me? That's not a white-eyed wolf, that's a tiger, a tiger that swallows the world." Ladies and gentlemen, let us make a covenant first. ”

"Well, make a covenant. ”

Mercedes VII and the alliance of the four empires, there is indeed something helpless for him, Li Xie attacked the Quartet of Sunflower City, this move was not discussed with Mercedes VII, it seems to show that Li Xie's matter, there is no need or need to go through the approval of Mercedes VII, not to mention the approval, I am afraid that even the opinion, Mercedes VII has no chance or qualification to publish, which sounded the alarm for Mercedes VII.

And Mercedes VII has always thought that Li Xie is a demigod, and in his opinion, he can accept it. But after Li Xie possessed the Nether Bone Dragon, his strength gradually came to the fore - either a saint-level or a demigod.

There is an unspoken rule in the Continent of the Gods, above the saint level must be separated from the concept of the state, that is, it must be outside the country to avoid causing a race war. This unspoken rule has some kind of force to maintain.

And Li Xie's current strength is gradually on the table, but no one has come to sanction him, which makes Mercedes VII, who knows him the most, suddenly wake up to the fact that all kinds of things in the past are his misunderstandings! In fact, Li Xie was a waste man without magic fighting qi fluctuations from the beginning, and it was he Mercedes VII who created Li Xie today.

After waking up, Mercedes VII had to take care of his own existence, and Li Xie attacked Tudor Quartet, and he was not surrendered, only his surname. And the surname changed is not Mercedes, but evil. At that time, Tudor Quartet will be Li Xie's territory, and Tudor will be sandwiched in the middle, so what should I do? I'm afraid I will have to change my surname as well.

In this way, Mercedes VII can only seek a way back for himself, first form an alliance with the four empires, and then compromise and seek perfection, follow Li Xie, wait for Li Xie to attack the four empires, and then stick a knife in the back, so that Li Xie will never recover. Or maybe Li Xie is too strong, and someone finally comes to sanction him, and Mercedes VII can naturally take over Li Xie's territory.

Of course, all of this has to be done behind the scenes.

Li Xie didn't know that Mercedes VII had other ideas in his heart, he was not attacking the Quartet to dominate the world, but only for countless souls. The territory of the Quartet, only attached.

And Li Xie didn't discuss with Mercedes VII, in fact, he planned to lay down the land and give it all to Mercedes VII, he was not an ungrateful person, besides, he didn't bother to manage these lands, it was better to be his king of kings in his one-acre and three-point land.

It's a pity that he didn't make it clear, causing such a misunderstanding, but Li Xie didn't care.

During this time, he was in the right mood.

A steady stream of captives were sent to Sunflower City, and a steady stream of souls were for him to absorb, and the soul of that titan had now reached the level of a yaksha.

The main battle soul is divided into seven levels: evil ghosts, yakshas, heavenly ghosts, yin ghosts, yin demons, heavenly demons, and blood demons, and to advance to evil ghosts, you need to devour a thousand souls, and the brilliance of one moon nourishes ten days, and you need ten thousand souls to advance to yaksha, and you need twenty days to nourish the moon, and you need to advance to the heavenly ghosts, you need one hundred thousand souls, and the moon flowers to nourish forty days, to advance to the yin ghosts, you need one million souls, and the moon flowers to nourish eighty days, to advance to the yin demons, you need ten million souls, and the moon flowers to nourish one hundred and sixty days, and so on.

And for more than a month, the Titan souls absorbed by Li Xie have devoured more than 100,000 souls, and as long as the moonlight is allowed to nourish a few more days, this main battle soul can also be promoted to a heavenly ghost. Li Xie was sure that when he unified the surroundings, this main battle soul would definitely be able to reach the level of heavenly ghosts! As for whether he could reach the level of Yin ghosts, it was a little difficult to say, after all, the number of prisoners was much less than the number of deaths on the battlefield, and whether it could reach the number of millions, Li Xie did not know.

Now that the Titan Soul Sacrifice has been refined to the Yaksha level, the power of the Alegy for Souls trilogy will rise several notches, and how strong it is, it still needs to be tried by people, but now no one has come to trouble Li Xie, and Li Xie is also happy to be comfortable.

The back garden of the Evil King's Palace.

At night, the moonlight shines.

Li Xie sat on a rock next to the lotus pond, quietly enjoying the moonlight.

Under the moonlight, his whole person was a faint silver color, and under the darkness, he looked very gloomy.

For the promotion of the main battle soul, two conditions must be met, one is the absorption of the soul, and the other is the nourishment of the moon. But the order of these two conditions is not hard-and-do.

To put it bluntly, it is actually the absorption of energy, the absorption of the power of the soul, and the absorption of moonlight energy. For example, Li Xie usually stores enough moonlight energy, and once the main battle soul absorbs enough souls, he can directly make the main battle soul advance without so many days of nourishment. In the same way, if the main battle soul absorbs an extremely powerful soul, one soul contains more soul power than tens of millions of ordinary souls, and if the moonlight is sufficient, the main battle soul can also be promoted immediately, or even skip the level.

Therefore, when it is okay, Li Xie has to absorb more moonlight energy, plus during this time, Li Xie has killed too much, and his body is contaminated with too much bloody qi, in fact, without moonlight, the aura he inadvertently emits is enough to make people creepy, and it is precisely because of this that Li Xie did not go to Duke Avril or Lily at night, most of them are cultivating.

And the things to cultivate, in addition to absorbing the light energy of the moon, are mainly the secret book of "Heavenly Knowledge" given to him by the Prophet of Ran.

"Heavenly Knowledge" is divided into three realms, which are the realm of the void spirit, the realm of the void, and the realm of nothingness. At present, Li Xie is cultivating the Void Spirit Realm.

The ethereal realm is mainly based on meditation, so that the spirit produces a kind of fluctuation, resonating with the surrounding things, so that you can "see" everything around you without using your eyes, and under this fluctuation, the spiritual power will naturally increase, the stronger the spiritual power, the larger the area that can be covered, when reaching the peak of the ethereal realm, it can cover an area of 1,000 square meters, and there is no need to meditate to deliberately control, the spirit can be in this fluctuation, which means that the peak of the ethereal spirit realm has been reached.

Li Xie's current spirit is in this kind of fluctuation, and the range that can be "seen" is only ten square meters, which is not as sensitive as hearing. For example, the sound of fast, slight footsteps from a distance of 100 meters.

"Who?" Li Xie stood up, his gaze in the direction where the footsteps came from. The Evil King's Palace has ten steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and specially invited Yat Lei Yao to make some protective traps, ordinary people can't come in quietly, unless the person who comes is a master.
