Declare war!

The Scarlet Empire is founded, war is declared!

This news soon began to spread from Rock City to all parts of the continent, and the Federation was the first to receive the news, and everyone was waiting for the Federation's reaction, after all, it had been a long time since anyone dared to challenge the Holy Federation like this;

In the solemn and solemn hall, an old man with a crown sat on the highest place, and in front of him was a minister dressed in a subordinate confederation, and at this time one of them knelt seriously on the ground, sobbing incessantly;

"Your Majesty, please be my master and avenge the humiliation of the Kim family!"

The person who has been crying is Carol Kim's father, who is the official in charge of the circulation of spiritual sources in the Federation, and his family is also the mining family of the very important spiritual source mines in the Federation.

"Piette, you get up and speak first, I am also very angry about what happened to your son, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation!"

The words that came from the top were heard by everyone present, and not a single person spoke against them, because this was what everyone wanted, after all, after the outbreak of war, they could make more profit from it.

Soon news spread from here that one of the heads of the Federation, the Holy Kingdom, had accepted the declaration of war by the Scarlet Empire, and the next step was to focus on the rest of the forces.

The mechanism of the Holy Federation is not independent, the most radiating in the Federation is the Mercenary Guild, and the absolute power is the Magic Council on the Tower of Truth;

Then there are the other kingdoms that rule everything, and it is the most powerful of all kingdoms in the federal capital, so it is called the Holy Kingdom, and there are many kingdoms on the continent.

Originally, the Holy Federation had been controlled by these three major forces, until the awakening of a new force, the Church!

And peddling a potion called holy water to all races, it seems that there is no decision-making power, but under the influence of this, the church gradually gathers terrible beliefs on the continent and becomes a very important existence;

In the mercenary union, at this time, the presidents of the major mercenary guilds from the mainland gathered, and they gathered here just because of the parchment scroll in front of them;

What is written above is the events of war declared by Marshal Christos Arthur and the Scarlet Empire, as well as the specific restrictions and treaties.

"What do you think?" Kaller, then you speak first!" The warrior at the top of the table is the head of the Mercenary Guild in the Imperial Capital, Fritz Reagan.

All the mercenary leaders here are legendary mercenaries, who have gone through many years of life and death, and they have long ceased to fear life, just to pursue the last beauty of life, and this is especially true of Kalle Kubello.

In addition to being a legendary mercenary, Kalle Kubero has reached the realm of Juggernaut like all the guild leaders present.

In response to Frieze's question, Kaller slowly lifted the wine glass in his hand, "The contents of this parchment roll have been described very clearly;"

"I think it's a trap, if that Scarlet Trial Tower is not in danger and can still have so many opportunities, he Arthur can make such a piece of fat?"

Catching Kalle was Adri AndrΓ© from the Southern Regions, a sword master who specialized in fire-based swordsmanship, and as a result, his temperament was rather irritable.

"Edri, you read it clearly, it is clearly written that this war is not against everyone, but against the kingdom that has long enslaved and sold orcs;

In order to prevent our other forces from joining, this opened the door to the Scarlet Trial Tower for us, which is why we mercenaries were promised not to participate in the war. ”

The one who said this was Skinn Sein from the Eastern Mountains, a very stable president and a very powerful sword master;

"What do you think, Sean?" As Sskin and Edri argued, Frieze looked at the man in the corner, and remained silent, as if awakened by Frieze's question;

"I, I've already told you about the situation in the Northern Snow Realm, it's not suitable for a large-scale war to break out at the moment, if it's just a war between two sides, then maybe it's the best, the Northern Snow Realm mercenaries won't participate in this war!"

Sean Snow simply stated his decision, and this also means that he voted his own and chose to refuse to participate in the war;

Immediately afterwards, Kalle Cubello, who had been holding a red wine glass, drank all the red wine in his hand, then closed his eyes, as if recalling, and slowly said his decision;

"I've been in the Eastern Seas for so long that I've forgotten how passionate I was when I first ventured, and now that I have such an opportunity, why not try it?"

"And what do you mean?"

"I chose to refuse to participate in the battle, agreed to Christos Arthur's request, and at the same time set up the mercenary guild of the orc tribe, and included the orc tribe in the mercenary guild as well!"

"Isn't this just telling the others that we don't dare to fight the Empire?" I don't agree!" to Kalle's suggestion, the first to object was Andrei.

And Frieze didn't answer immediately, as the president of the mercenary guild in the most central part of the continent, his duty was more to deal with the affairs of the mercenary guild than to fight, and he was weighing the interests of the mercenary guild in this matter.

"Frieze, Kalle's suggestion may be the best, at the beginning of the establishment of the Mercenary Guild, I remember that the historical record was that there were orcs joining, but too much time has passed, coupled with the migration of the orc tribe, this has caused the mercenary guild to only have our human race!"

"Besides, don't some of our mercenary branches planted by tribes in various parts of the continent also gather a lot of orcs, which did not cause the mercenaries to be disgusted, but increased the safety of the mercenaries!"

In fact, for this point, there are a large number of orc tribes in the eastern mountains where Sskin Sain is located, and they are not even less than the tribes in the Rock Forest, and he clearly knows how kind and simple these orcs are.

In his opinion, the main reason why Christos Arthur of the Scarlet Empire launched a war challenge is survival, and then there is human greed!

If the orcs on the continent were really twisted into a rope, Sskin believed that the strength of the Terrans would not be enough to withstand the counterattack of one force.

But Andre didn't think so, his interests were related to many people in the kingdom, in fact, he had known about the blood spar for a long time, and had been taking it, and now the source of the blood spar was in front of him, and he didn't want to give up no matter what.

Frieze, on the other hand, couldn't make a choice, although what Skinn said was true, and it was also an extremely beneficial thing for the Mercenary Guild, but Skinby didn't know the impact of those dreams;

Although it is the content of the dream, after the spiritual exploration of the great magician, there are many doubts in it, but in general, this is the truth, so the people in the imperial capital and even near the imperial capital are very repulsive to orcs.

If at this time, the Mercenary Guild is the first to express that it will not participate in the crusade against the Scarlet Empire, and even accept orcs as mercenaries, or even form a mercenary group, then his mercenary guild will be overthrown in the next second.

For a while, all the mercenary presidents in Jaecheng were in a stalemate, and they were waiting for the decision of the other forces.

"What do you think of the things written on these Shadow Stones?"

"I've looked and there's no sign of any changes on it. ”

"No changes? So these are real?"

"Warren, did you perceive everything correctly?"

Unlike the discussion in the Mercenary Guild, the Council on the Tower of Truth is still as mysterious as ever, and in the middle of them, there are some fragments that are constantly flickering, emitted by the light emitted by some stones.

The magician called Warren is a magician who is nearly half a hundred years old, and when he heard the voice of the person in the seat, he actually performed the junior salute.

"Yes, the turbine can guarantee that those dreams are just normal mental imagination, and the interference of the thoughts of the deceased at that time is not artificially controlled!"

"Then that's interesting, two different worlds, there must be a lot of secrets in them!"

"I didn't expect that after being bored for so long, there would be such a fun thing!"

"Who says it's not, if this photo stone is true, then what Warren saw must have been arranged, and there must be someone behind it!"

"So what do we do?"

"It's not easy, the best way to get close to the truth is to find out for himself, since Arthur made this request, then we agree, anyway, it's not us who enslave the orcs!"

"That's right, in the face of truth, nothing else matters!"

"So that's what we've decided?"

"Hmm. ”

"Agreed!"

"I'm the same!"

Soon after, a blue light radiated from the Tower of Truth and sped away into the distance, and many people in the Imperial Capital saw this phenomenon, and they knew that this time the magicians of the Tower of Truth would not be involved in this war.

......

Soon it was the end, and of all the forces, only the last party remained, the church.

At this time the supreme authority of the church, the pope.

In the palatial palace, a naked girl slowly walked out of the pool in the room, his eyes looked extremely empty, and he didn't even know everything that had happened before.

After getting up, a finger as white as jade stretched out from the pool, and under a gesture, the beautiful girl slowly walked out, and only then did she see the appearance of the person in the pool;

It was an old man with wrinkles all over his face, and it was clear from his face that he seemed to be very old, but his hands were as delicate and smooth as a teenager.

Slowly, the old man crawled out of the pool, and in an instant, his appearance actually became younger, until at last, when he put on his clothes, he had become a handsome, sunny man;

I saw him come to a huge smooth wall, through which he could clearly see his appearance, and touching his face, an expression of intoxication appeared on his face;

"The power of the Sacred Pool, how do you feel?"

In the empty palace, an unfamiliar voice came out, and this strangely changed man seemed extremely excited, only to see him half-kneeling on the ground, his hands outstretched;

A light appeared in mid-air, and a pair of perfect feet, stretched out from the light, slowly stood on the man's outstretched hand, and this scene made the man even more excited, with a trembling voice;

"Big ...... Big...... Man, here you go again!"

"Yes, what shall I call you now?" came a teasing word from the light, and as the voice fell, revealing his face, it was Lucifer.

"My lord, I am saved by you, and everything is your gift, no matter what you call it, I will accept it. ”

The person in front of him, the power on the continent, the supreme ruler of the church, His Majesty the Pope is like an old dog wagging his tail and begging for mercy in front of Lucifer.

"This time, I won't stay too long, I have too many things to do, has there been any change in the Scarlet Trial Tower that you sent someone to observe last time?"

"My lord, are you talking about the Scarlet Trial Tower in the Scarlet Empire? It seems to be a little different from what the Lord said, the top light of the tower doesn't seem to be fully lit!"

"That's good, as long as the top is not lit up, everything can be done. ”

"Yes, sir!"

Looking at the Pope's appearance, Lucifer threw him a gem and told him;

"Agree to Christos Arthur's request, arrange for a person to enter the Scarlet Trial Tower, go to the fortieth floor, put this gem in the castle, and you don't have to worry about the rest!"

"My lord, why do you want to arrange other people, I can directly complete this task for adults!"

"No, the space on the 40th floor is no longer for you to enter!"

"Remember, according to my request, choose which sacrifice. ”

"Yes!"

As the words fell, Lucifer turned into light and disappeared into the space, and immediately after, a message came from inside the church;

"The Church, it will not participate in the war between the Scarlet Empire and the Holy Kingdom!"
