In this battle, Horay, the Duke of Grey Dove, invested a total of 15,000 elite soldiers! And the Snow Wolf family also sent eight thousand elites into it.

But the black castle is like a human flesh harvester! The soldiers who filled both sides into it were almost strangled ....

But Horay is Horay, and he never fights unprepared!

After the Grand Alchemist ignited the ultimate weapon prepared for him by the Great Alchemist in the center of the Black Tower, the entire Black Castle was reduced to ruins.

And the price that Horay paid was one of his right arms....

But the tenacious Duke of the Grey Dove not only did not say a word, but also endured the pain and calmly commanded the remnants to occupy the various communication arteries in the Melsa Mountains and establish passes. It's like turning this mountain range into your own back garden.

Due to the Snow Wolf family's less contribution in this war, Dorothy, the head of the Wolf family, did not show any dissatisfaction with Horay's behavior. After all, the other side lost nearly 15,000 elite soldiers and an arm. And the 8,000 soldiers sent by the Snow Wolf family were as many as 4,000 when they returned. Although it was also a heavy loss, it was much better than the gray pigeon.

While the Ragnarok alliance is planning for its own future or fighting for survival, the only one who may be free is the wealthy Duke of Hayne in Port Rousseau.

If he can't fight, he also has the advantage of not being able to fight, but in all kinds of big wars, he only needs to do logistics and transportation and other work. Of course, his troops were not looked down upon by others, which caused the guards composed of mercenaries and adventurers under his name to suffer almost no losses.

The Duke of Hayne still spent his days singing and dancing in Port Rousseau, and the great changes that had taken place on the mainland seemed to have forgotten him in the corner.

Of course, while he kept his little bit of wealth, he also missed the perfect opportunity to get a piece of the pie in the new pattern.

Duke Hain didn't have much political ambition as a merchant, and he would be content if you could keep him in the port city and do his business. As for who has more territory and who has less territory in the center of the continent, in fact, there is not much difference to him. The only thing he was interested in now was whether to sell him more of the items produced in Klose Morin!

In such a tense and relatively calm atmosphere, the Lane Continent ushered in a warm May.

Located in the Demon Forest to the south of the continent, the weather is already very warm at this time. Klose trains almost every day in a single shirt and shorts.

He spread his training methods to the entire army, and every morning in the magic grove you can now see groups of soldiers running around the beach.

The lord said that this kind of platoon running is very good for training endurance and discipline.

On top of that, he also made two very interesting competitive games in his territory. He called the game "football" and "rugby".

Klose's idea was simple, that is, to vent the excess energy of these soldiers, and also to enhance the friendship and cohesion between the soldiers.

This kind of team sports not only emphasizes mutual cooperation and trust, but also requires a certain amount of physical confrontation and collision, which can very arouse the blood of men.

However, these two movements soon spread from the Magic Forest to the entire Holger Kingdom.

Holger IV Philip did the same, and also formed such two teams in the royal capital.

They were followed by the Duke of Hain in Port Rousseau, and the Silver Lion City in the Misty Lands, where similar teams appeared.

Further north, the battle was still not over, and everyone had no intention of engaging in these entertainments.

However, after the battle in the Great Desert came to an end, this blood-boiling sport, especially football, also spread to the Snow Wolf Country, the Feiliu Country, and the Great Desert.

At the same time, the strategic core of the Grand Alliance, "Ragnarok", has also been placed from the north of the continent to the south.

At this time, the power of the Holy See had basically gained a foothold in Tahiti, so if they wanted to land in the interior of Lane, the first thing they would have to face was the Duchy of Holger.

That pock-faced emperor lay down for no reason, and was very dissatisfied with this result! Because he did not join the Alliance of the Gods, he did not receive goods and military assistance from other forces.

Klose sat next to him and watched the excitement, and he saw when this pockmarked face would come to beg him.

Sure enough, this day was still waited for by him. But what he was waiting for was not only the pockmarked face king Philip, but also the young sister Yuanzi who was about to become the queen.

"This.... Sister Yuanzi, when did you get together with that guy? ”

Klose looked at Yuanzi, who was Philip's fiancée and came with him to visit the magic forest, and his jaw was about to fall to the ground.

At this time, Yuanzi no longer has the innocence and cuteness of a little girl, she is dressed in a dignified court dress, and shining pearlescent jewelry, which sets off the whole person is graceful and luxurious.

But he saw Yuanzi stretch out his left hand with six rings. Yes, that's right, she wears six rings on one hand!

In his mouth, he said: "Alas~~~ Senior Brother Klose, it is interesting to be a queen~!" All the people in the palace have to listen to me, all the delicious and fun things are used by me, and I can change and wear all the beautiful jewelry~~Beautiful clothes can also be worn at will~~ No one forces me to learn magic, and I don't have to worry about what to eat for the next meal, I think it's very good~~~ Philip is also very obedient, and now I have the final say in the inner courtyard of the palace! ”

Klose wiped his sweat and thought to himself, okay, it seems that the pock-faced king has been completely conquered by his senior sister! It's just that he didn't expect that two people who are so unrelated would also make up a pair? Love is really wonderful.

"Well, my queen Yuanzi, you came with the king's party this time, and don't tell me you're here to play with me."

Yuanzi put away her hand, jumped onto the chair beside Klose with an excited face, and sat directly on the arm of the chair, completely forgetting the set of rules taught to her by the court etiquette master before going out.

Klose looked at her movements with a wry smile, thinking that Sister Yuanzi's heart was still the same Sister Yuanzi, even if her appearance and clothes changed, her personality could no longer change significantly.

"Hey~ Brother, to be honest, I came to you to help this time, so you just say whether you can help or not! I heard Philip say that the southern strait was often harassed by the ships of the Holy See and pirates, and that the fishermen of Holger were afraid to go out to sea. Anyway, you're also the Prince of Holger, and you're my junior, so you can't just sit idly by, can you? ”

Klose shook his head and smiled: "I just said that why did Philip bring you over, I came to be a lobbyist for a long time?" ”

Maruko pursed her lips, stood up abruptly and grabbed Klose's ear.

The latter screamed in pain: "Stop, stop~~~ Let go!" Senior sister~~ You are my own sister! I didn't say I wouldn't help, why did I do it all of a sudden? ”

Yuanzi let go of his hand, immediately put on a smiling face, and reached out to pat Klose's face: "Hehe~~ This is my good junior." ”

Klose laughed and put the ball on the seat next to him.

"Alas... My senior sister! In fact, even if you don't come, I'm ready to send troops to the Holgenan border, and the Holy See is our common enemy anyway. Now the portals elsewhere are under the control of the Alliance, but we can't do anything about it.

Now that the portal in the Northland Desert has been destroyed, the focus of our Alliance's strategy will definitely be to the south. You can tell our king that he doesn't need to worry about that.

However, I still have to say that it would be better for him to join the Ragnarok Alliance, so that Holger can also get a lot of additional benefits and assistance.

As a bridgehead for later resistance to the Holy See, Holger deserves reinforcements, but there must also be a suitable reason, isn't it? ”

Yuanzi put his hands behind his back and nodded thoughtfully, like a little adult: "Well, you're right!" I will bring your words to Philip. He is thin-skinned and embarrassed to come and beg you personally. But no matter what, he is your brother, you are brothers, you have to love each other! Just like me, if I had a younger brother, I would love him well! ”

Klose rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that if you don't torture your brother to death, you will already burn high incense! Will you still love him? This "love" should be put in double quotation marks, right?

In mid-May, the Southern Expeditionary Army, led by Klose's Dark Demon Army and supplemented by the Ragnarok Alliance Army, has been assembled.

Everyone gathered in the south of Holger and began to prepare for an attack on the last stronghold of the Holy See on the continent of Lane and the home of the lizardmen--- Tahitian swamp.

Since this time it was necessary to cross the strait to attack the Tahitian swamps, Klose's navy became the key to transporting troops.

Of course, during this time, his shipyard was constantly rotating for 24 hours. After completing several battleships, several large troop carriers were built for this cross-strait operation.

In addition, five airships from the Dwarf Continent were transported, which could also carry tens of thousands of people.

Then there are the pirates who have come to Klose's aid. They also have more than twenty pirate ships, which can help somewhat.

That's it, on Olivia's strong recommendation! She led the Dark Demon Army as the vanguard, the bureau was dispatched in the center, the gray dove and Sieg served as reinforcements on the left and right wings, Klose was escorted by the navy, the air force of the Feiliu Country was assisted, and the southern annihilation war with logistics provided by the Blood Wolf Country officially began!
