520. The Turbulent Situation (2)
It's not just the thousand-year-old Covenant Empire that feels the spatial shock.
Almost the entire Southern Continent could feel an extremely obvious sense of spatial shock, as if a gate that had been sealed in the dust had suddenly been broken open by brute force, so everyone behind this door was shocked.
The Millennial Covenant Empire was the first to feel such a noticeable change just because it was closest to the Forest of Sighs.
This was followed by the Savage Lands, the Void Principality, the Lane Kingdom, the Fascist Kingdom, and other surrounding regions. Although those small principalities and kingdoms can also feel this sudden sense of shock, but because the country lacks a strong enough town powerhouse, they can't understand what this spatial shock means, after all, the gap in strength levels is too big.
Even if it is the Kingdom of Lane, only Elizabeth can truly understand the meaning of this spatial shock.
It's just that the opening of the door of bones at this moment is not a good thing for the Ryan Kingdom, which is now in turmoil. It's just that the Sighing Forest, the Black Soil Land, and the Canyon Dead Land, which are extremely dangerous, are not too far away from the Ryan Kingdom, especially from Asuna's father, known as the holy wall of the Wall of Ryan. The fortress of St. Dronnes, where Roald was stationed, was the closest.
In the land of black soil, there are two natural barriers, one is the canyon dead land, and the other is the sighing forest.
The reason for the formation of the canyon dead ground can no longer be investigated, but here is the largest number of demonic beasts in the entire Southern Continent, and almost all the varieties that can be seen in the entire Southern Continent can be found here. Moreover, the demonic beasts of the eighth and ninth levels, and the demonic beasts of the first and second levels, can all gather together. It's a rare sight in the world. It's just that this scene is not too beautiful for the thousand-year Covenant Empire, because whenever the death tide of the Sighing Forest breaks out, the demonic beasts in the canyon death will also riot.
Therefore, the meaning of the existence of the East German Grace Territory is to block the tide of demonic beasts in the canyon and prevent the convergence of the tide of demonic beasts and the tide of death - although the convergence of the two will also cause battles, but the battlefield is in the hinterland of the entire thousand-year Covenant Empire, so it is still the Millennial Covenant Empire that suffers heavy losses. For this. The Duke of Dondeen, who is led by Bopocas, is naturally responsible for blocking the tide of Warcraft, and as for the threat on the side of the tide of death, the last few times have been the responsibility of Duke Pusius.
This. It is also the strongest evidence that Pusius is about to become the Duke of Nandern. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the Duke of Pusius was now too old and that his successor could never be chosen, it would have made it impossible for the Empire to see what the successor was capable of. Therefore, the title of Duke of Nandern has never been enthroned. It's just that Duke Pusius didn't get this title. But in reality, the military power of the southern part of the empire was also under its jurisdiction.
It's kind of nameless.
Before, Bopocas originally wanted to give Pusius the great credit for quelling the rebel party, but now with the opening of the door of bones, the army of undead from the bone plane is about to appear, he can no longer be so calm, he must end the civil strife as soon as possible, and then he can let the Millennium Covenant Empire be in a better state to meet the coming danger. In fact, after discovering the news of the invasion of the army of the undead, for the people of the pure White Army Chamber at that time. They all know very well that this is both a huge threat. At the same time, it is a huge opportunity.
As long as it passes, then the separation of the people's hearts and the military's hearts caused by the attrition of the civil war will inevitably be quickly restored in a short period of time, allowing the entire Millennium Covenant Empire to shorten the time to recuperate, which is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for the empire that has experienced the decline in national strength caused by civil strife. But if you can't stop this invasion of the bone plane that followed by the civil strife, the fate of the thousand-year-old Covenant Empire is naturally conceivable.
Even if the country is not destroyed, I am afraid that it will no longer be able to keep the name of the empire.
Therefore, as an imperial veteran one of the ten generals, Bopocas naturally couldn't sit still.
And as the situation in the entire thousand-year Covenant Empire became more turbulent, the fluctuation of the Ryan Kingdom was also not light.
When Asuna learned from Elizabeth about the possible changes in the Forest of Sighs, she immediately reported the matter to the council, and at the same time asked Vivien to go to St. Drone's fortress to find her father as soon as possible. At this moment, there are some things that the pressure on the current Ryan Kingdom is not much smaller than that of the Millennium Covenant Empire, but even if the Millennium Covenant Empire fails, with its accumulation of so many years, even if it regresses into a kingdom, it is definitely in the ranks of super-first-class kingdoms.
And with Budris, who is ambitious and even wants to make his reign more meritorious than the founding emperor of the Millennium Covenant Empire back then, I am afraid that even if he is demoted to a kingdom, he can definitely return to the ranks of the Seven Great Empires.
But the kingdom of Lane is different.
This kingdom, in the eyes of those who have a heart, is already on the verge of extinction.
Even if the country does not die, it is probably a matter of time before it splits. And most importantly, the death of the old king Ingels remains a huge mystery to this day. Although the three successors have all begun to investigate the matter, it is the fourth princess Furcys who should make the fastest progress, after all, among her supporters is the Marquis of Floris, who controls all the information of the entire kingdom.
In the Royal Rose Manor, on the outskirts of the royal capital of Lane, Asuna, Elizabeth, the Marquis of Floris, Princess Fursis and others gathered in a reception room. This is different from the reception room that entertained Sean before, this meeting room is much smaller in scale, and the decoration looks more simple and simple, especially the decoration in many places can show some casual style, I think this should be a more private reception room.
"Grand Duke Sean, now in the territory of the Millennium Covenant Empire?" Asuna frowned and asked the Marquis of Floris, who was next to her.
"Yes, Grand Duke Asuna." Marquis Flores nodded, "Although there is an agreement with the Void Realm under Grand Duke Sean, there are still some intelligence sharing and communication exchanges. Therefore, we have some knowledge of the whereabouts of Grand Duke Sean. …… This time, Grand Duke Sean did not hide his whereabouts, so after analyzing according to our intelligence gathering and understanding. It was deduced that Grand Duke Sean should have passed through the Millennial Covenant Zone of the Savage Lands at this time. ”
Asuna's brows did not stretch because of this, but instead became more sad and distressed: "Sean has also communicated with me privately before, he is worried about Cecilia's safety, so he must rush back to the Void Principality as soon as possible, depending on the situation, Cecilia should have entered the territory of the Millennium Covenant Empire because of something." …… In this way, this time the opening of the door of corpses and bones may have nothing to do with Sean, right? ”
"Judging by the results of the analysis of the intelligence collection from all sides. It should be inseparable. Elizabeth spoke, "William sent his troops to the Savage Lands to intercept a caravan that was about to pass through the Millennium Covenant Zone. A battle broke out on both sides. Although it was not particularly intense, it lasted for a long time, which was obviously the result of William's intentional control, otherwise with the combat power of the two legions of the Thunder Lion and the Cecilia Guard. Plus William's command. I'm afraid the end of the fighting is long overdue. ”
Speaking of this, the Marquis of Flores also nodded secretly.
After all, the title of ten generals is too loud.
"I suspect that William's deliberate prolongation of the war must have something to do with Cecilia and others, and it is even very likely that Cecilia was in danger or trouble at that time. It's just that this kind of danger and trouble is not in the realm that William can solve, so he should be thinking about what solution to solve it at that time. After a slight pause, Elizabeth continued. It's just that later, judging from the action of William leading his army back to the gathering point of the barbarian tribes. It should be that he reached an agreement with Sean, which means that Sean will go to Cecilia in person. …… This is also consistent with the time when Sean left the royal capital. ”
"So the conclusion now can be confirmed?" Princess Fursith asked.
"It's not 100 percent guaranteed, but it's not far from ten." Marquis Floris nodded, "The opening of this door of bones is definitely related to Grand Duke Sean. …… However, although the first to bear the brunt of the Millennium Covenant Empire must have been, in addition to defending against the Millennium Covenant Empire that may attack our country, the other fundamental reason for the establishment of the fortress of St. Droence was to prevent the undead army from flowing from the Black Soil Land. ”
The meaning of the words of the Marquis of Flores is already clear.
The opening of the Gate of Bones this time is naturally a great threat to the Millennium Covenant Empire, but it is also not without any threat to the Ryan Kingdom.
In the history of several deathtide outbreaks, the fortress of St. Droens has not been attacked by the deathtide, but the general direction of the deathtide attack is the thousand-year-old Covenant Empire. However, the invasion of the undead army from the heterotopic plane is certainly not the same as the tide of death in terms of nature and effect, so can the "Ryan Left Portal", which has not been fighting for almost decades, be able to resist it?
And if it can't withstand the attack of the undead army, after breaking through this "left portal", at least one-third of the entire southwest of the Ryan Kingdom will completely fall in less than three days. Because just behind this huge fortress is the almost flat terrain of the Kingdom of Lane - there are no natural hazards, no important places, and no strongholds and fortresses that can be established as a second line of defense.
"Just received the news that Prince Adams and his Legion of Oath have departed." The Marquis of Flores whispered, "Duke Devyn and his legions are also ready to go. It's just that the council can't make up its mind at the moment, whether to let the Duke of Devyn also go out to support the Duke of Roald, or let him go north to temporarily take over the duties of His Royal Highness Prince Adams, to guard against the enemies that are about to move in the Kingdom of Hales and the surrounding area. ”
"At such a time, the Peace Council will definitely intervene, even if it is the Kingdom of Hales or other surrounding jackals, they will never make a move at this time." Princess Vorceth snorted coldly, and her little face also showed a bit of coercion and anger, "Those guys in the council are just giving this huge credit to my brother." After all, we have a 'score' limit now, and my brother is currently in the last place. ”
There are only three people involved in the competition for the throne of the Kingdom of Lane, namely the eldest prince Adams, the third prince Arlan, and the fourth princess Vorceth.
But unlike the diplomatic Arlan and the pro-people Furcis, Adams was a martial artist through and through. Therefore, there is hardly any suspense, in the first rating data release in the recent period, Adams is naturally the bottom of the identity, and is a full five hundred points away from the second-ranked princess Furces. And Arlan, who is temporarily in first place, is only 25 points ahead of Fursis.
Now, the council has sent Adams to lead his Legion of Oaths, making it clear that it is intended to divide the prince.
In fact, it has always been a well-known secret that members of the Military Council are more optimistic about Adams.
The reason is very simple, His Royal Highness the prince is not good at internal affairs, so when the time comes, the military and political council will definitely have the final say in the policy of governing the country - it is impossible for people to be selfless, even the most saintly will definitely take care of their own children and grandchildren. Therefore, in some general directions, the military and political councils will not make mistakes, but in some small details, they will naturally make some inconsequential layouts.
It's like now.
The Legion of Oath can also be regarded as an army of the undead, allowing them to fight against the army of the undead, naturally without worrying about them being "assimilated". Similarly, the ability to never die, to be tired and not to require logistics, allows them to fight for a long time.
On top of these advantages, it was natural for Adams to lead the army into attack, and no one could refute it.
"Princess Vorces, I think it's best for you to return to the Duchy of Garold with me, given the current situation." Suddenly, Asuna spoke, "The situation in the royal capital has become more and more chaotic at present, and I heard that His Highness Adams and His Highness Arlan were also assassinated before, but the news has been suppressed. …… In the recent past, those assassinations have been hidden even deeper, and I fear that they will do something bigger, and that they will be directed at you. ”
Princess Furis was slightly stunned, then turned her head to look at the Marquis of Floris, but saw that the Marquis of Floriss nodded in agreement with Asuna's words.
Seeing this scene, Princess Vorceth's expression was a little ugly: "Can I ...... Let me think about it? Before dinner, I will give you a reply. ”
"Okay." Asuna nodded.
Now, she is completely tied to the same chariot as Princess Vorcis, so naturally she doesn't want to see any problems with Princess Vorces.
……
And as the range of spatial shocks is getting wider and wider, a black cavalry corps is also slowly moving south. (To be continued......)
