The stubborn Lady Winter is reluctant to leave, for her, she has lost her homeland and territory one after another, and nothing can stop a person who has lost everything from taking revenge.

But the chief of the guards wanted to save her master.

The best option is to let Lady Winter leave. Annan planned to take the expeditionary force to the Winter Territory after the matter of the old royal capital was settled.

The old royal capital was rejuvenated on this night, and the arrival of the expeditionary force breathed life into the lost city-state.

To cure the plague, the Ranger kills one stone and one rat man.

A mage is like an overheated musket, but the musket can be used after it cools down, and the mage can only meditate or watch others kill. Learn how Michael wields his staff and knocks on the rat man's brain.

The thieves were busy leaping out of the shadows and looting for treasure, but the only thing they could find in the old royal capital where the nezumi had been ravaging for months was the nezumen's ears.

The warriors were like savages, killing the rat-men at sight, and the bards playing the harp were followed behind their butts.

The rats above the elite level in the old royal capital were all cleaned up by Dean Brehim and Mr. Svarro, and the rats outside the city couldn't notice the thousands of humans suddenly appearing in the city for a while, so the carnival of the expeditionary force continued.

From early morning to early morning, and then to noon, they encountered rats that fled in panic and did not attack. When they first arrived, they might have killed them regardless of it, but there were so many rat men in the old royal capital that they didn't bother to pay attention to them.

Annan thought that if there were enemies of his own in the expeditionary force, he would be able to bring them to Maria's mouth, making her status as a "savior" more justified.

After all, there are a few rat people like Maria and Broken Teeth, and Maria is a rat man specially trained to infiltrate human society. Most of the nezumi pounced on the expeditionary force when they saw it, and the Sturne rat would use traps and cover to sneak up on them.

It took a whole day for the expeditionary force to use the dungeon as a base to clear the eastern part of the outer city of the old royal capital.

The next day, the exciting news reached Liberty City, from which it spread in Middle-earth.

Evelyn ran over with the Philosopher's Stone in her arms as a war correspondent to record the expeditionary force's recovery of the old royal capital, and then put it in the new issue of "Voices of Freedom".

This news should cheer up quite a few people. Annan thought.

Because of the new trade routes opened up by the expeditionary force, the magical newspaper also spread in the kingdom of Dimon. As a result, just as Annan had thought, enthusiasm erupted in many places, and newspaper sales, which had been growing close to stagnancy, skyrocketed again.

Unexpectedly, the Tatoon Empire was met with some criticism: they mocked Annan for being carried away by the honor, believing that there was no point in the expeditionary force attacking a lonely city, and that the nezumi would take it again as they retreated.

There are also officials who accuse Annan of harboring evil intentions - the kingdom of Rikaner is a branch of Montreal, and the king is the royal capital of the Montreal family. He dares to fight the small palace garden now, and he will dare to hit the real palace garden in the future!

All I can say is...... The empire is not a monolith, and there will always be some fools among the nobles.

For example, Flamen spent 100,000 gold coins for the magic newspaper and wanted to maintain friendship with Annan, but the envoys were still frantically mocking Liberty City

After the expeditionary force recovered the entire eastern part of the old royal capital, Annan brought Princess Sails from the suburbs.

After months of captivity by the nezumi, Princess Sayles was so weak that she changed from a noble princess to a down-and-out lady. The thinness made her look no longer young.

Princess Sayles needs to rest, but the Old King is full of gunfire and screaming. To avoid Princess Sayles' affection, Annan temporarily placed her in the underground palace.

Late that night, Maria, disguised as a human, came to Annan: the expeditionary force had no enemies of Annan, but the Nezumi survivors had Maria's enemies.

Maria and Annan thought together: to give each other those who did not obey them.

Maria sent the guy who wanted to fight back from the gathered nezumi and let Annan eat it easily. Then she led the remaining nezumi out of the old royal capital and retreated north.

After Maria left, the expeditionary force was no longer afraid and began to speed up the cleaning of the old royal capital. After all the elders and priests in the city were dealt with, there was no decent resistance.

No reinforcements came from outside the city.

The reason is that the main forces of the nezumi are distributed in the south and are fighting against the demons.

Demons want to bring chaos to the main plane, and they don't care who bears the chaos - it just so happens that the nezumi are also creatures of the main plane.

This allowed the expeditionary force to quickly clear out the outer and inner cities, leaving only the "little palace garden" on the "Little Montreal Hill" still resisting.

After months of nezumi rage, there are no survivors in the city. But there are still three survivors in the dungeon. They fell into a coma after they were saved.

Annan asked the mage to find a way to save them, and then visited Princess Sayles.

Annan thought that Princess Sayles had been tortured, but she didn't.

"They draw my blood...... Using my bloodline to study the Montreal Golden Family......"

"It looks like they're plotting against the Empire...... Evelyn! ”

Soon, the guards brought back Evelyn, who was running around outside.

She ran around with the expeditionary force all day long, shooting battle scenes, and didn't seem to be afraid of those bloody scenes at all.

The girl who was carefully cared for by Fast was finally changed by Annan.

"I remember a lot of criticism from within the Empire?" Annan asked.

Evelyn was indignant: "They went too far, hiding in a safe place to say this about the warriors in front. ”

"I've got some new speculation that the nezumi are secretly plotting an attack on the Tatooun Empire......" Annan told her.

"Are they so bold?" Evelyn was surprised.

The strength of the Tatooon Empire is in the eyes of every Middle-earthite, otherwise they would not be given the title of "barbarians". And that emperor was also the king of bones, one of the thirteen supreme kings. Trouble with the Empire...... What's the difference between this and Martin going to split up with Aunt Susan.

According to common sense, there are still so many countries in the east of the north, and the McCain clan should join forces with demons to encroach on the north little by little.

"So the nezumi have more reason. Their attack will also face the union of the human kingdom. But as soon as the most powerful local empire is settled, the surrounding countries themselves will fall apart. ”

"Because of Wilhelm." Princess Sayles also gave a reason.

As soon as the empire is solved, the rat people and the moat of Wilhelm are gone.

Humans, elves, dwarves, orcs...... All of the main races of the main plane came out of Wilhelm, but the nezumi were not.

They obey the will of the Rat God and want to desecrate the origin of this world: Wilhelm.

Annan taught Evelyn: "You just say the Stoone clan...... No, let's just say that the nezumi are plotting the Tatoon Empire, maybe there are already people inside who have been corrupted by the nezumi and bought ......"

Those who attacked Annan are in trouble.
