"Your Excellency Beorandi, what I rely on is the famous general Alexandre, not the archangel Ty Etheron. Recruiting one more archangel or losing one archangel will not be enough to influence the outcome of our army. Strength, do you understand?"
"General Lysander, I have admired your name for a long time. When I saw you today, you are really majestic. I am terrified to disturb your centuries-old sleep. I invite you to come back to the living world. I hope that a famous historical general like you can harvest the fruits of victory with us. .As the founding father, don’t you want to witness with your own eyes the everlasting Pelada Empire?”
Bewitching, unabashedly bewitching. However, in General Alexandre's view, this bewitchment was nothing more than a joke.
"Needless to say, today the relationship between you and me is a king and a minister. If the king wants his minister to live, he must live. If you order me, I will execute it."
"Jie, Jie, Jie, get on the road."
Perhaps it was Alexandre's attitude that made Pope Martin a little dissatisfied. He sneered, gave up the idea of coaxing with words, and instead revealed his plan in detail.
"... Then General Alexandre, please be sure to capture Wayne City, the capital of the Nikolas Empire, as planned, and cooperate with the great demon army in the Nikolas Empire internally and externally. Once the gate of Wayne City is broken, Immortal The legion will be able to march straight in, unlock the seal, and the entire plane will be shrouded in the canopy of the undead. At the same time, this plane will be in our hands."
"The next step is to deploy. The empire will divide its forces into two groups, one to attack and the other to defend. When various countries are about to make big moves, the Griffin Heart Emperor will become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of other countries. Defend the St. Nicholas Church and invade the Negras Empire Equally important.”
…
The brief and direct combat meeting ended quickly. In fact, this combat meeting itself was a show. As the summoner, Pope Martin clearly had countless simple and effective ways to boss Alexandre around, but instead he went to great lengths to invite Alexandre and his entourage to make a special trip to the imperial capital for a meeting.
Instead of pretending to be sending summons, he regarded him as a living legendary general. Pope Martin's behavior seemed to declare everyone's condescension as the pope, and his dignity as the pope. He is sincere and does not take the current war situation where every second counts.
Arrogant and hypocritical.
However, at the end of this battle meeting, the eldest prince Rex clearly sensed that for some reason, Alexandre's eyes drifted towards him and he looked at him for a moment.
At this moment, the heart of the eldest prince Rex became even more shaken.
"Has General Alexandre noticed me? Is it my imagination? He seems to have something to say to me."
Curiosity, or some other emotion, spreads throughout the body like the poison of a poisonous snake. Although I know I shouldn't worry too much, I can't get rid of these and other thoughts. It's like halfway through the march, something suddenly got into my hard-to-take-off boots. Like a pebble, it was extremely torturous.
The secret guard was not allowed to leave his post, and even the three emergencies had to be dealt with with magic. What's more, under the Pope's nose, it was extremely difficult to make a mistake. Therefore, the only way that the eldest prince Rex thought of was to take advantage of Alexander. When Virtue retreated and the Pope closed his eyes to rest, he secretly and quickly let go of a rat familiar and caught up with Lysander's figure.
"Your Highness, the First Prince, you took the risk and came here alone. This means that you are not someone who goes to 'that side', at least not completely."
As expected, before the rat familiar could get even closer, General Alexandre's voice sounded in the familiar's ears——
Pressing the sound into a line is a compulsory course for fighting spirit masters.
"Time is limited, so I will keep my story short. As the orthodox heir of the empire, you are young and promising, and the empire will eventually be handed over to you. You may sneer at my words because of the desperate situation, but remember, time will prove In everything, before the turning point appears, we must stick to our original aspirations and work hard..."
As if to confirm General Lysander's words, the next moment, violent explosions were heard from all directions in the Griffin Heart Imperial City. After a while, multiple heralds arrived one after another, constantly appearing in the sight of the two. While they were running towards the Pope's Hall, they loudly shouted several unexpected battle reports:
"Report! Fires and explosions occurred in many arsenals in the city. The cause is unknown!"
"Report! The western city gate was breached by thieves, and the general leading the team is the defected God of War James!"
"Report! The Crusader barracks was broken through by the Nightmare Knights, and the Pandagon faction troops detained in the barracks were kidnapped!"
"Report! An unknown ship was found south of Guangming Shoal. The city wall is under heavy shelling. The attack range of the city wall trebuchet is insufficient. The fleet is requesting permission to leave the port!"
…
Just as the herald was running around, countless cavalry spears flashed across the sky of St. Nicholas Church without any warning. They struck like meteors, fell like meteors, and hit several people patrolling in mid-air like meteors. The fallen angels, together with their torn bodies, smashed onto the defensive barrier above St. Nicholas Church!
…
"Report! The thieves who attacked the church are the Champion Knights. General Rose...General Rose has also rebelled!"
…
Countless battle reports came in like snowflakes. Unconsciously, General Alexandre whispered once again:
"It seems that the turning point will come earlier. Your Highness Rex, continue to do what you should do. One day, the bright future of the plane will need you to step forward."
The rat familiar hiding in the gap couldn't see General Alexandre's face, but Rex could conclude that at this moment, General Alexandre's face that was pale due to zombification... must be filled with hope. Smile!
…
The Imperial Capital of Griffin Heart, the Crusader Barracks.
This place was once the holy land of all Crusaders. Countless elite soldiers and descendants of nobles came here and drank magic potion to screen talents in order to gain the power to compete with evil spirits.
Needless to say, those with low suitability of the potion would fall into coma in mild cases, and die suddenly in severe cases. Only those with higher suitability would be qualified to be taught secret techniques to strengthen their bodies by the Crusader instructors. As spring passes and autumn comes, day by day, we build up our troops and make progress. When a warrior reaches the standard, he will undergo various trials. Those who succeed will be awarded Crusader armor and sword blades. If they fail the trial, they will be assigned to qualified Crusaders. As a retinue, he protected the Crusaders until the Crusaders died on the battlefield. The retinue took over the armor and continued to write the legend.
Countless young people have entered here and are willing to sacrifice their lives for the country;
Countless soldiers once came out from here and stood on the battlefield to shed their blood;
once……
At this moment, shrouded in conspiracy, the papal faction is in charge here. All recruits joining the Crusade barracks and becoming the Crusaders' first life and death question are not the torture and selection of magic potions, but the making of a soul oath to be absolutely loyal to the pope. , never betray the Pope.
As for the Pandagon family in charge here? There is no doubt that in the past, the three major families restrained and supported each other. At that time, the Pandagon family was in full control of this place. But when the leader of the Taris family, the God of War James Taris, became a traitor, the remaining The relationship between the two families gradually became troubled, and the Crusader camp was gradually intervened by figures from the papal faction. Until the Archangel Michael suffered, the patriarch of the Pandagon family, Arthur Pandagon, took the risk After rescuing Joan of Arc, his rebellion and disappearance became the trigger for the Pope to completely control the Crusader camp and target the Pandagon clan.
Being co-opted, controlled, placed on unfounded charges, arrested, and executed...
Countless soldiers, heroes, battlefield elites, and national protectors died in the hands of their own people because of boring power struggles.
Today, the last group, the most core and most powerful Pandagon elites, are being imprisoned in underground cages in the Crusader barracks. Together with the heavy criminals, they are suffering life worse than death until they let go of their inner beliefs. , until they throw away the gold from their knees, until they swear allegiance to the pope.
Time will destroy people's will. No matter how powerful the warrior is, he cannot resist the destruction of time.
This was the Pope's plan, but he didn't seem to expect that the time hourglass that had been constantly destroying the will of the Pandagon warriors would come to an abrupt end today.
boom!
The door of the dungeon was torn to pieces by the cavalry's javelin, and the dungeon guards who were ambushing behind the door were nailed to the floor deep in the dungeon by the cavalry's javelin.
It was only then that the shocking sound of killing on the ground broke into every corner deep in the dungeon.
"Hurry! If you don't want to die, come with me!"
The older generation of Pandagon warriors naturally recognized the owner of this voice. He was the apex of the Taris family, the once victorious general of the empire, the God of War James.
Almost at the same time as this loud war cry sounded, there were also several streaks of fighting spirit erupting from the cavalry's spears, traversing the dungeon, the magic barrier shattered, and the fine iron prison door was split into two.
In the blink of an eye, the Pandagon warriors are only a few steps away from freedom!
Whether to rot in this dungeon until death, or to break through the siege with another family leader who is also accused of rebellion, the answer is self-evident!
"Come on!"
The horn of charge was deafening. The Pandagon warriors imprisoned in the cage were already battle-hardened veterans. The persecution they suffered in this dungeon day and night finally had a chance to resist. Every warrior burst out with unconcealable murderous intent.
This is the Crusader barracks, the territory of the Pandagon family. For the elites of Pandagon, this is a familiar home ground. They kill enemies, seize horses, and snatch back their own equipment and baggage.
The Pandagon warriors did not keep James waiting for long. In the time it took to warm the wine, every Pandagon warrior was fully armed and quickly followed James and his Nightmare Knights, carving a bloody path and heading east in a straight line.
There is the closest road out of the city,
There, there is the forbidden area of the empire - the shallows of light and darkness.
Suddenly, there was the roar of iron hooves approaching rapidly from the other side of the block. It seemed that another group of heavy cavalry who could not lose to the Nightmare Knights was coming.
An enemy? Is it a friend?
