Hera was slightly stunned when she heard the other party's self-introduction.
It turns out that he is Heiernason.
Although his body is as huge as a hill, even his voice can be controlled so lightly.
It even makes people feel kind and somewhat reassuring.
This old man, who looks to be over fifty, must have been very powerful when he was young.
And Hernerson continued to speak, asking the question that needs to be known most now:
"Now tell me about the current situation."
Listening to the other party's inquiry, Hera lowered her head slightly, her expression a little gloomy:
"Before the eldest prince left, the number of monsters on the front line was still in a balanced state."
After the war in the south stabilized slightly, the eldest prince left the south.
But not long after the eldest prince left, the monster crack suddenly expanded uncontrollably.
A large number of monsters poured out from it, catching the southern front line off guard.
Even support was too late to call for help. Many soldiers and adventurers were mercilessly carved up and cannibalized by monsters during the struggle.
In desperation, they had no choice but to retreat to the second front. The adventurers and soldiers joined forces and launched a desperate struggle against this large tide of beasts.
However, the number of monsters exceeded everyone's imagination, and the second line of defense was almost defeated.
If these waves of Warcraft are allowed to reach the third line of defense, the consequences will be disastrous.
Because it is almost impossible for the third line of defense to stop so many monsters.
Once the defense line is breached, behind the defense line is an area inhabited by hundreds of thousands or even millions of residents.
At that time, the entire city will fall into disaster.
But fortunately, at the moment when the second front was about to collapse.
Cravenna's support arrives.
The group of well-trained demihumans galloped and killed in the battlefield, especially the tiger man, who hunted the wave of monsters like prey.
This also confirms why the guild led by Hera is called [Beast].
Because only beasts that rely on instinct are the most powerful enemies against these monsters.
When humans face monster attacks, they always have to consider casualties, and it is difficult to accurately attack the monster's weaknesses.
But wild beasts will follow their instincts, just like hunting. After a simple attempt, they can catch a sure-win opportunity.
Therefore, demihumans who are most like beasts can restrain monsters very well.
This is an efficiency that is difficult for ordinary armies to match.
"Fortunately, these monsters did not attack the last line of defense."
As she spoke, she felt a little strange.
Logically speaking, if there is no leader, so many monsters should not attack the south of the empire so concentratedly.
They could have entered the barren land to hunt, but instead chose to attack the empire.
It's as if someone is deliberately controlling them.
However, even if you want to control this group of monsters, you should be the strongest among these monsters.
For example...floor master.
However, it seems that the existence leading these monsters has not appeared yet.
While Hera was thinking, she suddenly felt a strong danger approaching.
The hair all over her body exploded, her eyes widened, and even the tips of her floating hair stood up.
The huge flowers blooming in the eyes are changing at a speed that has increased several times.
The tiger man a little further away also felt this ferocious aura.
Its orange hair exploded like burning flames, and it turned its head towards the source of danger for a moment.
Big beads of sweat broke out on Hera's forehead. Regardless of the bandage of the cat girl next to her, she stood up suddenly and shouted to the bear-man in front of her:
"Danger!"
boom!
In an instant, a towering pile of soil stretching into the blood-colored clouds was lifted up from behind Heilnerson, like a brown waterfall rising into the sky.
An extremely huge monster suddenly emerged from the soil, its brown flesh and skin constantly squirming.
Countless purple blood vessels were twitching under the skin, and dark blood flowed rapidly through them.
The dazzling white teeth protruded from the surface of the skin, spinning and breaking through the earth.
An abyssal mouth that seemed capable of swallowing the sky was filled with sharp and long teeth, which opened and closed in the air while spitting out bursts of stench.
The moment it appeared, the flesh and blood of countless monsters were eaten away by it, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.
The soil peeled off from its body and slammed into the bloody earth.
The muddy river of blood spilled from the sky, and the rich smell of blood awakened and spread again on this ferocious land.
Looking at the huge sandworm that was as thick as a castle rising from the ground, the roses in Hera's eyes stopped changing, and her mind went blank.
Because that's...
A monster I have never seen before.
There are many unexplored areas in the Monster Rift.
Even the most powerful Beast Guild among the adventurers, the deepest they have explored is only fifty floors.
So, this behemoth in front of us.
It can only be a super monster below level 50.
If I were to make a bolder guess.
It's very likely——
"The floor master on the sixtieth floor?"
Compared with the huge body of Heernason, he seemed as small as a pebble.
Everyone alive at the scene stared blankly at the huge mouth falling from the sky.
At that moment, their minds were also blank, the blood in their bodies seemed to have solidified, and their limbs were extremely stiff.
Unable to move.
Only those demihumans, as if they were not worried at all, silently pulled the injured back a long distance.
Just like... to prevent them from being accidentally injured.
At this time, the giant sandworm fell from the sky.
It opened its huge mouth of flesh and blood, and seemed to intend to devour Heernassen and everyone present!
but……
Hellnerson didn't look back, just raised an arm behind him.
At that moment, his arm muscles swelled and veins were exposed from the surface of the skin.
boom! ! !
Along with the powerful impact sound, everyone's eyes widened.
One of Haiernason's arms was firmly trapped in the sandworm's huge head.
He firmly resisted the impact of the sandworm.
However this is not the end.
He turned around, leaned forward, stretched out his other hand, and firmly grasped the edge of the sandworm's mouth.
At this moment, Hernarson took a deep breath, and the muscles in his body swelled again.
Even the buttons on his butler's uniform were broken.
His hands supported the sandworm's huge body, and a powerful wave of air erupted from behind him.
Lifting one foot into the air, he suddenly pulled the huge brown sandworm completely out of the ground.
In an instant, terrifying waves of sand and dust rose from the ground, and the flesh and blood of various monster corpses shattered in all directions along with the smell of blood.
And the sandworm's terrifying body flew high into the sky again, passed over the bear man's shoulder, and fell hard toward the earth on the other side.
boom!
There was an explosion, and the vast ground suddenly trembled.
Everyone was awakened from their trance by the strong vibration, and they covered their faces with their hands, trying to avoid the sweeping sandstorm.
A brown storm rolled into the sky, and thick dust hit the earth.
After a long time, the smoke gradually dispersed.
The huge sandworm fell completely upright on the ground, turned its body, and wriggled back and forth on the ground.
It was as thick as dozens of magic trains put together.
And Heilnason just used one hand casually to press the sandworm's body easily.
Just a simple movement made it completely immobile.
Everyone present froze on the spot, staring with wide eyes at Heernerson pressing the sky-holding sandworm.
Their eyes were full of shock and their brains were in a mess. Even now, they feel like they are in a dream.
Even Hera blanked her mind for a moment and raised her head to look at the still dignified Hernason.
What was she thinking just now?
When the other party was young, he must have been very powerful?
Is it too late to take back your previous thoughts?
At the same time, Heilnerson stretched out his hand to straighten his straight butler's clothes and straighten his tie.
Then he slowly turned back and looked at Hera:
"Where were we talking just now?"
…
"So those monsters haven't invaded the city yet."
The eldest prince lowered his head and muttered these words feebly, and his body gradually regained some strength.
He gasped several times.
When he heard the officer reporting to him the news of the fall of the South, he was so nervous and anxious that his heart seemed to have stopped.
There was a trance in front of my eyes, and my consciousness was hazy for a moment.
In such a short period of time, if the beast tide really invaded the city, the army would not even have a chance to disperse the people.
Even if the people are expelled, once the city is breached, the consequences will be equally disastrous.
Three fronts were drawn up in the southern part of the empire.
A front line guarding the monster rift, and a huge battlefield on the second front.
The last line of defense is the city wall front established with Godin Lima as the benchmark.
There are a large number of extremely lethal large-scale weapons stacked there, which are also the last and most important means at the border.
Even if the people are dispersed, as the border, it is still an extremely important strategic point.
Once it is lost, the entire southern region will face catastrophe.
The eldest prince slowly came back to his senses, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and took a deep breath.
He straightened his body, walked solemnly in front of Victor, stretched out his hands and grabbed one of Victor's hands.
Express your gratitude with a respectful ninety-degree bow.
"Thank you very much, Count Victor."
The nobles also fell silent when they saw the scene in front of them.
A ninety-degree bow is already the most respectful etiquette, and the next step is to kneel down on one knee as a sign of allegiance.
But as a prince, Albany naturally cannot do this.
At this time, the nobles could understand the eldest prince's behavior.
Because from the perspective of the eldest prince, Victor's early rescue was equivalent to saving the entire southern part of the empire.
The southern part of the empire is the territory protected by the eldest prince.
And unknowingly, Liya also returned to Kokot's side with a smile.
Kokot sat on the chair with his face propped up and looked at Victor with some dissatisfaction:
"Didn't we agree that I will be the protagonist today?"
Seeing Liya coming back, she muttered a few more words.
"You're really willing to let him steal the show."
Liya sat on the chair again, smiling a little, but shrugging helplessly:
"no way."
"Who made him the head of my family?"
Having said this, she looked at Lipoot on the other side.
Looking at the elegant and noble head of the Reese family, Liya felt a little funny.
Now, Victor had a reason to question this guy.
Sure enough, Liya thought exactly the same.
Victor casually stretched out a hand and gently took off the two palms of the eldest prince on his other hand.
"There is no need to say thank you for now. After all, you asked me for assistance."
The eldest prince straightened up, his eyes widened slightly, his mouth half-opened, with a bit of astonishment on his face.
"Just don't forget to pay."
Immediately, he turned around again and looked at Lipoot:
"Now, I just have one more question to ask."
In the sight of everyone, Victor slowly walked up to Lipoot with crisp steps.
Lipoot raised his head slightly when he felt Victor approaching.
The dazzling eyes of the flowing golden sand and Victor's deep black eyes met each other.
"The south is also the jurisdiction of your Reiser family."
Victor spoke word by word, with a sharp edge flashing in his eyes.
The chill in his tone was like an ice cave:
"Today, if you don't have anything to say."
"I'll make you forced to explain."
