When a troubled little girl once again interfered in the war between the Sorcerer Kingdom and the Bahas Empire against the Dragon Kingdom, especially after the Dragon Kingdom openly expressed its intention to protect it, the Sorcerer King Ainz suffered another tragic defeat. After Ur Gong fled in embarrassment, they finally stopped their crazy and bloody pace of external expansion and conquest that lasted for nearly three months...
He had to stop, because not long after the Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown defeated the Dragon Kingdom, he learned a major piece of news:
Led by the Kingdom of E-Rantel, the meeting of anti-dark magicians and their evil allies from the Holy Kingdom, the Council Kingdom, and the Dragon Kingdom was held in E-Rantel City and ended successfully. Under the auspices of the third princess of the kingdom who attended the meeting with a certain white magician, the four countries formally united and established an anti-black magician alliance and announced it to the public. The magicians of the Sorcerous Kingdom were not preparing for a greater conflict with a certain white magician for the time being. King Ainz Ooal Gowncai finally stopped their military operations out of anger.
He had to stop because he found that there was no place on this continent that was easy for him to bully anymore for the Sorcerous Kingdom to attack.
At this time, in less than three months, starting from the Lizardman Lake, to the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, and then to the Kaz Plains, the original Silian Theocracy, the Great Desert, etc., this large area was connected. All the places have been taken over by their Sorcerous Kingdom, forming a new and huge country! And if you include the territory of the ally (vassal state) Bahas Empire, basically the evil alliance between the Sorcerous Kingdom and Bahas Empire occupies nearly half of the land on this continent, while the other half is temporarily Still in the hands of the Anti-Dark Magic Alliance.
that's all……
This world, or rather this continent of this world, has begun to enter a stage of polarization and confrontation between powerful alliances.
However, although the two sides have temporarily suspended the possibility of launching a large-scale war due to various reasons, either because of fear or because of being harassed, the evil Dark Sorcerer King An of the Sorcerous Kingdom has However, Z. Oul Gong has never been at peace, and has been carrying out various activities crazily in various countries...
In the Kingdom of Le Estij, especially in the territory of E-Rantel City, monsters from the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick can often be found wandering around during the day or night. No one knows what they are doing, but , but it is not difficult for people in the Kingdom and the Anti-Black Magic Alliance to judge: The Sorcerer Kingdom and the Bajas Empire must be planning some kind of terrible action, or are they actively preparing to launch the next war?
So soon, the Anti-Dark Magic Alliance also took action and began to mobilize their troops. They dispatched elite troops and powerful heroes to the front line of E-Rantel City, and tried to fight against the enemy as soon as possible in the future. One day, launch a military operation against the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bahas Empire, hoping to completely end the Dark Sorcerer King's reign of terror on this land?
Of course, no one knows when that day will come... Maybe one day in the future, it may be the Dark Magician King Ainz Ooal Gown who takes the lead in launching a full-scale war against the Anti-Dark Magician Alliance?
Therefore, at this time, in addition to frantically spying on each other's intelligence and conducting low-intensity confrontations and tests at certain levels, higher-level confrontations or higher-intensity wars have not broken out for the time being, and the two sides have maintained a tacit understanding. With that kind of peace that everyone knows will be fragile.
For example, right now, in the floating city above E-Rantel City, a group of senior officials and important figures from the Anti-Dark Magic Alliance have gathered here and are meeting in a secret palace.
Sitting here at this time are the warrior captain Gazef, who represents the Kingdom of Re Yestije, the second prince of the kingdom, Zanak, and the Platinum Dragon King, who represents the Adranger Council and one of the Thirteen Heroes, Chain. The humanoid platinum armor controlled by Dulux Baithion and related representatives from the Holy Kingdom include the Holy Queen Calca Besares and the strongest paladin Remedios Castelio, etc., and Dragon The Black Scale Queen of the Kingdom, who turned into a little human lolita, was also among them... In addition to them, there was Lana Tielle, the third princess of the Kingdom who had been authorized to exercise her powers on behalf of the 'White Magician'. ·Charlton, Lyle, and Vanessa have also been sitting here for a long time.
'? ? '
'Strange, your Excellency the White Magister hasn't come yet? '
'Well...it is said that she never attends such meetings. In fact, she never manages any miscellaneous affairs, so...'
'! ! '
'Is it an important meeting between the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bahas Empire? Is that also a side matter? '
'In fact, to Your Excellency the White Magister, it is indeed yes! '
'this……'
Seeing that a certain important person didn't seem to be present, he didn't know who mentioned it in a low voice. Then, he was quickly refuted by the ruthless facts and was speechless for a long time. He could only sit back angrily. On your own seat.
'well……'
'Every time I see the floating city of Eleonteyo suspended above the city of E-Rantel, I can't help but think of those things back then...'
'Time flies so fast, a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye! '
'Nowadays, the Eight Desire Kings no longer exist, but an evil Dark Sorcerer King, Ainz Ooal Gown, has appeared to bring trouble to the world. I don't know how long this endless reincarnation will last? '
After so many years, I was able to set foot on the floating city of Elion Tiyu again. Looking at the familiar guardians and buildings, the beautiful empty shell armor controlled by the Platinum Dragon King couldn't help but sigh slightly, and began to reminisce about those days. everything of.
However, things have changed now, and only he and Rigrid are left among the "Thirteen Heroes" back then, who can no longer shoulder the heavy responsibility of fighting against evil... And their powerful captain back then , is still sleeping under that castle, and says that he is not willing to be resurrected by them... With all these things, even if he is stronger than the Platinum Dragon King, what can he do besides sighing?
'Lux...'
'Everyone here should know that on average, there will be reincarnation once every hundred years, and there will be many passers-by in this world. This is unavoidable, and we have to get used to it... But fortunately, this time the black and white pairs appear. Magic, at least it's not all bad, we still have the ability to resist, right? '
On the other side, there was also one of the Thirteen Heroes, but this time it was the former captain of the Blue Rose who participated in the meeting as a follower of the third princess of the kingdom. The powerful old woman Rigrid smiled. Advised the Platinum Dragon King.
'yes! '
'You're right, Rigrid. Fortunately, it's not all bad. Otherwise, the Slian Theocracy might be an example for us...'
Hearing his old friend's ridicule, the Platinum Dragon King just shook his head slightly and stopped sighing. He just sat silently in his seat, waiting for the meeting to unfold.
'Ah! '
'More than the Slian Theocracy? I have heard that in all the places occupied by the Sorcerous Kingdom, such as the Kaz Plains, the cities captured by the Dragon Kingdom, and the tribes in the desert, all of them were not slaughtered by those monsters and then transformed. Became undead? '
'That's true. Our Dragon Kingdom is indeed full of powerful undead monsters left behind by the black magicians. They are very difficult to deal with, and there are also some powerful undead wizards who control them. We have not been able to clean them up yet. ...'
'well! Her Majesty the Black Scale Queen, don't worry now, there will always be a way. Compared with the destroyed Slian Theocracy, at least you can still keep the capital and half of the country in the south, right? '
'Yes, then thank you, Second Prince, for your comfort...'
'But everyone! '
'There is no way to continue like this. So far, millions or more living people have been brutally murdered and transformed into undead creatures. The purpose of the Dark Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown has been very clear. Obviously, he is the enemy of all life. We must find a way to get rid of him and his Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick as soon as possible, otherwise, what awaits us will only be a terrible doomsday! ! '
'But, Holy Princess, what can you do? What do we do? '
'If we take the initiative to attack, we must not let their evil forces continue to grow in strength! ! '
'attack? '
'What offense can be used? All of our soldiers combined probably don’t have as many undead as they have, and most of the soldiers are not more powerful than their terrifying undead. Those are all high-level undead! '
'But at least we still have the White Magician! ! '
'Lady Anne has defeated the evil black magician Ainz Ooal Gown several times, but the opponent is very cunning and can escape easily every time... This shows that the opponent is not easy to deal with! Just like last time, in the capital of the Dragon Kingdom, the opponent lost an arm and still managed to escape... Thinking about it, the opponent may have many super-level spells and world-class props. I'm afraid it won't be as good as the original Eight Desire Kings. weaker! '
'What then? '
'Are we just going to wait and let him continue to act recklessly and turn all the living people in the Silian Theocracy into undead before attacking us? '
'this……'
'We can't wait long, I'm afraid they will attack soon. As you all have seen, they in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick have a way to transform and summon some powerful seventh-level death knights, as well as the undead. The lich...that is simply a nightmare enemy. Even if there is no Dark Sorcerer King, our soldiers are no match for them! '
'call……'
'Then think of a solution quickly! '
'What else can you do? According to me, just knock on the door now. Anyway, it's very close to the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick! '
'snort! We can't easily break through their defenses. They have built a large number of fortifications along the line of E-Rantel City! You have all seen those giant war puppets, they actually used them to build city walls...'
'And the village of Karn, a small village with less than a hundred people, is actually garrisoned by an army of 5,000 heavily armored goblins. It's simply crazy! ! '
'well……'
In this way, before the meeting started, everyone was discussing loudly, sentence by sentence, but no one could come up with an effective solution despite repeated discussions.
'alright! '
'Everyone! Now back to business, let’s start today’s meeting! '
At this time, the third princess of the kingdom who was presiding over the meeting, the acting city lord of E-Rantel City, Lana Tier Charlton Lyle Vanessa seemed to be unable to say anything after seeing everyone arguing for a long time. After giving some constructive suggestions, she finally stood up with a smile and started her speech:
'We all know...'
'The Sorcerer Kingdom has been making small moves recently, all kinds of monsters and methods of investigation have been almost exhausted, and the war movements are becoming more and more obvious... Presumably, it is not far away from them launching a new round of attacks. We must act as soon as possible, otherwise, we may be the ones who are wiped out soon! '
'We have no time. This is a life-and-death war. If we don't want to turn into that ugly monster, we can only use our most powerful force to fight back! ! '
Although she did not have any power, she, the third princess of the kingdom and the agent of E-Rantel City, still spoke with great momentum to the powerful professionals or dragon kings present.
'Well……'
'Sounds good, but, Your Highness Lana, what do you want to do? '
At this time, the platinum dragon king's armor asked simply.
Of course he also knew that the situation was urgent. All the countries and people on this land were threatened by the Dark Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown. However, how to fight against such a powerful and terrifying army? existence, he has no good solution.
'snort! '
'It's very simple, gather superior troops and powerful hero professionals, gather all the power we can muster, and raid the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick! '
'And the sooner the better! '
'Otherwise, what we will face will definitely be a very embarrassing situation! '
Lana, the third princess of the kingdom, clenched her fists and said with excitement, her face turned red... She had never dared to imagine that she, Lana Tielle Charlton Lyle Versef There will actually be a historic day that leads and assembles strong men from various countries to defeat the Dark Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown and save the world!
'! ! '
'this……'
'It is feasible, but there are their elite undead army and various guardians around the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, and behind them there is a camp of nearly 300,000 troops from the empire. If we want to raid the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick , it would require a force several times theirs, but such a big move would be impossible to hide from the Dark Sorcerer King! '
'really……'
'Ainz Ooal Gown is not a fool. That evil skeleton is very cunning, and there are equally powerful demons under him. Plus that line of defense, it's not that easy to attack...'
'Yes, it's possible to mobilize troops for a frontal attack. It's probably unrealistic to raid the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick like a sneak attack. We definitely can't hide it from those monster spies! '
'Well……'
'Your Highness Lana, do you have anything else to add? '
At this time, listening to everyone's discussion, the Platinum Dragon King noticed that the third princess of that kingdom, Her Royal Highness Lana, still had a confident look on her face. She seemed to have thought of the things they were discussing? Therefore, thinking that the other party might have a solution, he hurriedly asked.
'certainly! '
'Everyone, I have taken your concerns into consideration before, because it is indeed not an easy thing! However, what if we don’t need to gather too many troops this time, and only use the troops from the Floating City and E-Rantel City? '
Like a cunning little fox, Lana slowly spoke out her thoughts.
'! ! '
'W-isn't this a little too forced? '
'Nonsense! There are only more than 100,000 elite coalition forces here in E-Rantel City. Even if you include the floating city, it may be a bit dangerous to deal with the huge coalition forces of the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Empire...'
'Yes, I'm afraid we won't be able to touch the edge of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick and have to retreat! '
'no! This is absolutely not possible, it’s too messy! ! '
'I object too! '
'This is a way to die! Although we all know that we must take action against the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bahas Empire as soon as possible, we cannot act like this! '
'That's right! '
'...'
Soon, everyone was discussing loudly, and they all agreed that the suggestion of the third princess of that kingdom, Lana, was not very good. Even the Platinum Dragon King, who was very interested just now, shook his head in disappointment and was also not optimistic about it. That plan seemed like nonsense.
'Everyone...'
'Who said... that the army of the Bahas Empire must be on the side of the Sorcerous Kingdom? ! '
Snapped! Snapped!
'Come out! Lenas! '
Seeing that the reactions of the attendees were exactly as she expected, Lana, who was still full of confidence, suddenly clapped her hands, indicating that a secret weapon she had been preparing for a long time was ready.
'! ! '
'she is……'
'strangeness! Why is she here? '
'Your Excellency, Warrior Commander, do you know her? '
'certainly! '
'who is she? '
'It's better to listen to what Her Highness Lana has to say first, what do you think? '
'Well, that's fine! '
After everyone whispered for a while, they all turned towards the woman who was still standing there smiling in confusion or surprise, and guided the woman who was wearing a hooded blouse and covering one side of her face with a half-faced hairstyle. Princess Lana looked in the middle of the venue.
'Perhaps some of you have recognized this messenger...'
'That's right! '
'She is Lenas Rockbrus, one of the Four Knights of the Empire, also known as "Heavy Bomb", and this time, she is here on behalf of the Bahas Empire and the Emperor! '
Lana began to introduce the identity of the messenger to some of the attendees who did not know him.
'! ! '
'is her? '
'But wasn't she wanted by the empire and removed from the Four Horsemen? ! '
'Before the Dark Sorcerer King appeared, I had heard of her, one of the Four Knights of the Empire, many times. I also knew some information about her. I thought her escape was a normal thing, but I never thought the truth would be like this...'
In fact, the empire had issued a wanted notice before, and the senior officials of various countries present who were more interested in the empire's intelligence naturally knew about it. However, I didn't expect that the other party actually came to E-Rantel City and was invited to the Floating City. Come here?
'! ! '
'Well! '
'Then this is a good opportunity! '
'yes……'
'Next, it should be almost time to take action, right? '
'Let's see what Her Highness Lana will say first? '
'...'
After looking at each other and discussing for a while, everyone was shocked and guessed some of the purpose of the other party's appearance here, and then they couldn't help but feel bursts of ecstasy in their hearts.
Because they know that some wonderful opportunities are finally starting to appear!
'Everyone! '
'Lady Anne is also a little tired of the evil deeds of the Dark Sorcerer King. She doesn't want him to turn this world into a country where only the dead are left. So everyone, this is our best and last chance! '
'And this is why I invited you to the Floating City! '
'Here, we can ensure that the content of our conversation will not be leaked, and we can ensure the confidentiality and suddenness of our actions to the greatest extent! '
'We must not wait any longer! '
After seeing that no one seemed to have any objections, Lana, the third princess of the Kingdom of Yestije, who was known as the 'Golden Princess' and also represented a certain careless 'White Magician'... Her Highness Thierry Chardon Lyle Versef began her formal speech, telling her plan and making a series of requests to the attendees present.
No one knows what the participants in the palace of Elion Tiyu above the floating city said on that day. They never left, but secretly sent someone to bring a powerful hero professional and We just invited trustworthy high-level adventurers to E-Rantel City...
In this way, a century-old storm that has not yet spread began to brew in E-Rantel City...
At this time, a certain troubled little girl was still wandering around the world, and as for a certain evil Dark Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown, of course he was also busy transforming the undead troops and He was spying on intelligence from various countries and actively preparing for one of his plans.
