075 Battle of the Two Kings
The San Setstian Empire is one of the three major powers of the "Holy Alliance", but it has always been in an awkward position on the edge.
For a long time, it was not the traditional power of the Church of Light, but a temporary vassal of the Church of Light during the last invasion of the Demon Legion. Although the Church of Light has been trying to naturalize the southeasternmost country of the continent for a long time, the San Setestian Empire has remained at a distance and unwilling to give up its independence.
Among the other two great powers of the Holy Alliance, the "Buyada Empire", which is famous for its culture, art, industry and commerce, has no ambition to resist at all.
The "Ian Empire" was even more straightforward and thorough, they set the "Holy City of Ranken" as the first capital, and were willing to give up the name of their "Empire" and renamed it the "Principality of Ian", and King Ian also gave up his throne and demoted him to the Grand Duke.
This made the Church of Light extremely pleased, and gave it the name of "Holy Duchy of Ian", and enshrined the holy name of Grand Duke Ian as "God's Family".
Compared with these two own sons, the San Setestian Empire is like a rebellious wild child, unable to raise or throw away, giving the Church of Light a headache.
But this wild child has been struggling to survive. Unconsciously, the comprehensive national strength has surpassed the Buyada Empire and gradually approached the Holy Principality of Ian.
The city of Kutu is a new commercial city that emerged in the wave of the empire's vigorous development of industry and commerce.
It was located in the northeast of the San Setestian Empire and was the industrial and commercial center of the entire region. Directly north of it is the southern foothills of the Dawn Mountains, to the east is a vast desert and its nomads, to the northeast across the desert to reach the realm of the mountain dwarves and highland barbarians, and to the north and west to communicate with the highland elf tribes of the Whispering Forest.
Such unique location conditions make it a major trading place for foreign goods.
Therefore, adventurers of all races are common in Kutu City, and the residents are accustomed to it.
It's not often that Allegri stares at two eyes with a look of novelty.
"Be a little more decent," Cyrell snorted, "you're a master of traveling far and wide now. β
Allegri nodded, barely reining in his posture, but then he almost burst his eyeballs.
"Thisβthisβ"
Not far away, there was a handsome highland elf holding a shy female dwarf.
"This ......," Cyryl couldn't help but be dumbfounded, "this...... It's love. β
Having settled down, Allegri rushed directly to the mercenary union in the center of the city.
From the garrison at the gates to the streets, Allegri had not yet seen a wanted warrant for himself, and it was likely that the hunter's tentacles had not yet reached the edge of the Anthropocene realm.
But first, he had to learn about the situation in the Snowton Empire after he left.
In terms of information acquisition and transmission, the mercenary union system covering the entire continent is obviously extremely efficient.
Allegri took an unknown juice drink and looked through the task list cursoryly, finding only one piece of information about himself.
On the hunt mission for the "Church of Light", the name "Allegri the Mage" has been around for a long time. It was discovered a long time ago in Vanuna Allegri that the reward amount is 1,000 gold coins. Until now, the amount of experience has actually become 0, but it is marked with a line of small words "Thank you of the Church of Light".
This priceless reward is enough to prove that the Church of Light has taken action against itself.
Cyrell sat next to her and drank a glass of wine, and couldn't help but be surprised when she saw this, "I'm becoming more and more curious about what evil deeds you have done, the reward of 'Church of Light' means that you have entered the 'hunt list' of the Inquisition." β
Allegri smiled and asked tentatively, "Can the Church of Light directly obtain the information of the Mercenary Guild?"
"No," Cyryl laughed, "the Mercenary Guild is headquartered in the Torm Federation, and remains completely neutral and does not intervene in any power struggle. Even what the Church of Light needs to do, it must also issue tasks through the Mercenary Guild, such as this. She tapped her finger on Alleg's thick list of tasks.
"What do you want to do?" said Cyrell, looking at him curiously.
"I used to have a mercenary group, and now in that name, will I be discovered by the Church of Light?" Allegri asked.
"If you are the head of the group, you can transfer the mercenary group to someone else, and the Church of Light can't find out, hey- why are you going?"
"Let's go and help Alibaba register a mercenary identity first. β
"Are you sure that Flame Slash won't be seen?"
"How can you know if you don't try?" Allegri snorted, full of confidence.
Allegri sat in the hall of the Mercenary Guild, holding a brand new mercenary diary in his hand, which belonged to the mercenary diary of the "high-ranking warrior" Ali Baba.
He just chose to transfer the ownership of the "Sad Mercenary Group" to the "low-level mercenary" Ali Baba. According to the rules of the Mercenary Guild, this decision is to be carried out immediately, and the two deputy heads of the "Sad Mercenary Group", "Dios" and "Illo", will be notified as quickly as possible, and they both have the right to deny it.
That's what Allegri's purpose is, and what channel can pass on the information that he is alive to them faster than the mercenary guild?
And according to the information he and Cyryl have found everywhere in the mercenary union, the current situation of the Snowton Empire can also be basically understood.
The current Snowton Empire has officially fallen into a divided mess.
The eldest prince, Jonas, with the support of the Church of Light, officially proclaimed himself king in the capital city of Vanuna, and with the help of General Finn, he completely controlled the situation in the Vanuna theater, plus the eastern "Wolf Mountain Theater" that he already controlled, as well as most of the secondary theaters and counties in the eastern and southeastern parts of the central empire. Combined, they occupy about half of the empire's territory.
"Thunder Lion" Nacini was crowned in Norman City in the "Holy Blood River War Zone", and he mastered the territory corresponding to the two first-class war zones in the south and southwest of the empire, occupying about 30% of the total area of the empire.
In addition, the northernmost "Snowy Hell Icefield Theater" also declared its independence and supported Prince Nachina, but General Ruberdine had to guard against the invasion of the Aalborg Empire, so he could only contain Jonas to a limited extent.
The rest of the empire's territory is in chaos, some are independent, some are in a dilemma, and some are temporarily wait-and-see, and the Snowton Empire, which is the first in the mainland, has completely fallen into war.
Happily, most of the mobile legions fell to Prince Nachinani. The ratio of territory between the two sides is 3:5, but the ratio of military power is the opposite, 5:3. Even with the addition of the Knights Templar, who had been cut off from the back route, Prince Nacini's military strength was still superior.
Except for the garrison in the "Iron Wall Pass Theater" that needed to resist the attack of the Holy Alliance, the other legions had already moved closer to each other and counterattacked on the spot.
The current situation is that Snowton is in turmoil, Nacini is counterattacking, Jonas is retreating, and the army of the "Holy Alliance" wants to bypass the Iron Wall Pass to open a passage with Jonas.
Nacini wanted to get ahead of that and completely crush Jonas's main force to seal the victory.
War, in full swing.
