Chapter 391: A Warning from the Burning Redhead
In the 98th year of the Age of Magic, a huge conflict suddenly broke out on the continent that had been quiet for many years.
As one of the two major empires on the main plane, Britant suddenly declared war on the Caesar Empire, which had just experienced the turmoil of the monarch change, and announced that the two current generals of the Caesar Empire intended to subvert British, and poisoned the people of Britney in Nanhai Town, demanding that the Caesar Empire hand over the murderer and the way to save him.
The tragedy of the town of Nanhai in Buldian itself attracted the attention of many countries on the mainland, and with the declaration of Buldian being issued, everyone was boiling. According to the words and deeds of King Yusser's father and daughter, the vast majority of people did not question the authenticity of the declaration issued by Britten.
However, out of caution, not many countries have taken a position on this. But then the elves followed suit and became famous, poisoning the people of other countries for the Caesar Empire. The use of the evil plague virus to mutilate civilians expressed strong condemnation, and the elven clan's high ranger general, Varnahis, who chased the wind, even made a high-profile declaration of solidarity with Britain, and even led the Guards to join Britain's crusade army, to advance and retreat together with Britain, until the Caesar Empire handed over the mastermind behind the scenes.
Since then, Britannica has released a lot of evidence, and all of this evidence points to the two imperial generals of the Caesar Empire, and no matter how suspicious people are, they have to believe that the Caesar Empire has really done such a thing to their own leaders.
However, in the face of the stormy public opinion trend in the outside world, the Caesar Empire was very calm. They did not dismiss the two imperial generals as demanded by Britten, and even the voices of opposition and skepticism in the country were gradually silenced.
For Britain's really rapid build-up of troops to the border, the Caesar Empire called on Britain to exercise restraint, but at the same time, it was also quietly mobilizing the country's troops to deal with the war that Britain might start at any time.
By this point, it was clear what the situation was.
Perhaps the incident in Nanhai Town has nothing to do with the Caesar Empire, but this powerful empire that has just changed its national leader can't bear to be lonely. He can't wait to get his hands on his neighbors. Moreover, the kind of coordination shown by Caesar's imperial army in the movement was by no means what should be expected in the event of a sudden emergency.
It is clear that the Caesar Empire has been waiting for this day for a long time. It is estimated that even if the incident in Nanhai Town did not happen, and Liedian did not declare war on the Caesar Empire, it would not be long before the Caesar Empire would take the initiative to provoke a war.
What Artoria, the princess of Britain, did was nothing more than a move that was in line with Caesar's intentions.
And just as the two sides were tense, the border was quickly massed with heavy troops, and the war was on the verge of breaking out, there was disturbing news from within the distant Elven Forest. It is said that the sacred tree of life, which has been passed down from generation to generation by the elves, is undergoing a strange mutation. The entire Elven Forest has been affected by its mutations.
The exact circumstances are unknown, but the Forest of Elves has closed its borders, forbidding any outsiders to set foot in its territory, and quickly summoned all the elves who were left outside to return home. As Artoria's best friend, the High Ranger General of Yongsong City, Varnasis had to say goodbye to his friend and leave Britain.
And the departure of the elves has also turned this war that may break out at any time into a simple battle between the two empires. Many are waiting to see because this war may determine the future direction of the continent.
Regardless of who wins or loses in the Empire of Liberty and Caesar. are closely related to other countries. Some powerful countries that are only weaker than the two empires are ready to move, and they are always planning to grab enough benefits in the war.
However, the opinion of the outside world seems to Artoria at this time, which is a little insignificant, and the resolute princess is haunted by the sadness of parting with her old friend. Because according to the latest news. The mutation of the Elven Sacred Tree is related to the activities of those ancient evil gods.
Even from the seriously injured messenger, fifteen percent of the current Silvermoon Forest has fallen under the evil minions of the Elder God, and this area is still expanding rapidly.
The Elder Gods who descended to the main plane were not the only two in Caesar's Empire!
The news. To the astonishment of all those in the know. The elves benefited from the large number of god guardians in the clan, and they were able to resist the attack of the ancient gods for so long, but it was difficult to hide the decline of the retreat. It is no wonder that the Caesar Empire, one of the two major empires of mankind, is obviously guarded by gods, but it still fell into the evil control of the ancient gods without anyone knowing.
Realizing the urgency of the matter, Varnasis had to say goodbye to Artoria and lead his guards back to the Silvermoon Forest in a hurry. As a good friend, Artoria should have reached out to help her old friend's hometown when it was in danger, but the war with Caesar's empire was imminent, and she couldn't leave at all, and she couldn't help her friend in the slightest.
In the end, she could only run alone in the pouring rain, letting the cold rain wet her body, wanting to let the cold of the rain cool her heart. Merlin had been sent back to the royal city by her, and after learning about the power and evil of the Elder Gods, Artoria began to worry about her father.
She needed Merlin to protect her father in the royal capital instead of herself, and she believed that with the power of the old wizard, even the evil ancient gods would not be able to sneak into the royal court to King Uther quietly.
When the filthy creatures are discovered, Artoria is confident that the kingdom's mightiest guardians will rush to the body and dismember the hateful god. Countless battles in the past have shown that even powerful gods cannot face the terrifying tactics of crowds.
Perhaps those ancient evil gods can easily kill the powerhouses of the one-life holy realm, but when the powerhouses of these holy realms appear in batches, coupled with the powerful defensive artillery fire of the kingdom, as well as the guardian gods of the kingdom, no matter how powerful the evil gods are, they must also retreat.
Galloping through the rain, Artoria's apologetic heart gradually calmed down, and she began to turn her horse's head and prepare to return to the camp. However, the moment she turned around, Artoria was stunned.
In the rain curtain in front of the girl, a figure appeared silently, and an invisible force surrounded her, separating all the rain.
It was a stunningly beautiful woman, with long fiery red hair and beautiful eyes the color of rubies, pure and moving. There was a hint of evil smile on his face, but it was inexplicably chilling, and he subconsciously wanted to take a step back.
And what shocked Artoria was the pile of goose-yellow wings on the girl's back.
Unlike the white wings of ordinary angels, the wings of this red-haired girl with burning eyes looked more beautiful and more inclined to evil, and when combined with her evil smile, there was a sense of harmony.
"Hello, princess of Britain, I think we have to talk. ”
Standing in the rain, the red-haired girl with burning eyes raised her head and smiled wickedly.
Artoria frowned and snorted softly, not impressed by the woman, "Who are you, and why are you in front of me?"
"Listen to me, child," the red-haired woman laughed mysteriously, who looked to be about Artoria's age, but she unceremoniously called Artoria a child, "this world will fall! If you really want to save your people, lead them across the oceans and leave this world. I can guide you to a safe and worry-free world free of charge, so that you will not be troubled by the minions of the ancient gods. ”
Artoria laughed, she shook her head, almost thinking that the woman in front of her was crazy, "Run, you let me lead my people out of their homeland, just because of an inexplicable neurotic warning?ha...... This is my place, and my only duty is to defend my people! I will not abandon them to the so-called ancient evil gods, in fact, I will find that evil creature and destroy him in exchange for true salvation for my people. ”
"Well, it seems that you rejected my kindness," the beautiful burgundy eyes were a little disappointed in surprise, "Originally, I wanted to make a little effort to curb the development of those evil gods. But you have already made up your mind that you will not be moved even by the more far-sighted people...... But it doesn't matter, anyway, the life or death of human beings has nothing to do with me after all. ”
"You call yourself a visionary, but I know what I'm doing. My people need me, and here they are!" said Artoria, looking at the man in front of her in disgust, "and you, who claim to be non-human, please do not try to interfere in our human affairs. ”
The red-haired girl seemed to be laughed angrily, "My pathetic princess, don't you know that many times we don't just see things with our eyes, but also with our wisdom and heart? ”
As she spoke, the mysterious girl shook her head and said with a smirk, "For your poor persistence, I will give you one last warning—remember, the power of the ancient evil gods is not something that even humans can resist. If it weren't for the world barriers of the main plane that restricted their arrival and forced them to appear with crippled power, those evil gods would not need to play conspiracy with you at all, and they could completely crush the entire world of the main plane lightly, and your only hope is to escape from this world, and hope is in the endless sea of sand, where there is a portal to the other world. ”
Artoria frowned and tried to refute, but the mysterious girl's body was already like ripples, fading and disappearing before her eyes, and finally empty.
Looking at the empty front, Artoria shook her head, "You can't fool me, no one can fool me...... The minions of the Elder Gods, who are afraid of my might and want to intimidate me? It is useless, when you extend your vicious claws to my people, you are already doomed to the death of both sides, and you will definitely accept the punishment you deserve!"
"No amount of intimidation can shake my determination!" (To be continued......
