Chapter two hundred and twenty eight dark tide surging
The Lord of Sendra looked at the young general sitting on the side of the lord's hall, wearing armor. This was General Loschi, the supreme leader of the Blade Fortress Army.
At this time, the young and promising Loschi looked ugly and carefully checked the thick crossbow arrow more than two meters long in his hand, with dark red blood on the crossbow arrows.
The Lord of Sendra saw the thick crossbow arrow, his eyes shrank, and his forehead was sweating.
Don't let me catch who it is!
The Lord of Sendra was resentful and frightened. If such a thing happened, the superiors would definitely investigate it to the end, and the smuggling caravan was the top priority in the investigation.
By that time, those enemies or those who are jealous of the position of the City Lord will not miss such a good opportunity, and he, the City Lord, will be the end of the day.
Sendra lifted the white cloth and revealed a pale young man's face. He remembered this young man, who was a city guard and a local resident of the Blade Fortress.
This poor soldier's fatal injury was a big hole in his chest, and he could even see the stretcher below through the blood hole.
Sendra frowned and closed the white cloth.
"Please the body out, inform his family and give his family a pension."
Although the Lord of Sendra is greedy for money, he still has no problems in terms of ability and character.
Otherwise, he, the second son of the earl, would not have stood out from many competitors and won the position of city lord of Blade Fortress.
General Loschi handed the crossbow arrow in his hand to the Lord of Sendra who was walking towards him.
The Lord of Sendra took the crossbow arrow. The crossbow arrow was more than two meters long and weighed nearly twenty pounds. The shaft was as thick as an adult's wrist, and the arrow was shining with cold light. You could tell at a glance that it was made of exquisite steel.
Suddenly, the Lord of Sendra's eyes shrank, and he touched the crossbow arrow without any sign of deformation, and a look of incredible expression appeared on his face.
"This! This! This is impossible! This process, even if the crossbow arrows made by the Empire are not intact after impact."
General Loschi took a deep breath. As a soldier, he knew much more about weapons than the civilian position of the City Lord Sendra.
"This is not a weapon created by the empire."
General Loschi's eyes were gloomy and clear.
"Even, this is not a crossbow arrow created by humans. With our human craftsmanship, we cannot create such crossbow arrows."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Sendra was mixed. On the one hand, he didn't have to worry about smuggling from above. On the other hand, he was also very worried about where the orcs got these equipment.
Orcs themselves?
Stop kidding!
These amazing brute force guys, if they had such casting technology, humans would have become extinct long ago!
Lord Sendra spoke.
"General Loschi, have you seen the origin of this crossbow arrow?"
Although the young man in front of him is at the same level as him, his identity is incomparable to the Lord of Sendra. Loschi is the heir of one of the three great dukes of the Empire, and he came to the Blade Fortress just to gilt.
With the background of the Duke family that has been passed down for thousands of years, Loschi has a rich reserve of knowledge, and he expressed his own guesses.
"There are only two races in the entire Madilan world that have such craftsmanship, one is the long-lost dwarf clan, and the other is the legendary Titan giant."
Lord Sendra couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
"Dwarf? Titan Giant? Isn't that legend?"
Loschi shook his head.
"I don't know about the dwarves, but Titans are real. Thousands of years ago, humans were slaves of Titan giants, building palaces for them and grazing livestock. Later, the ancestors could not bear the tyranny of Titans, and rose up to end the Titan's rule."
Loschi thought of the huge Titan skull in the family collection room, and his heart was solemn.
Whether it is a Titan or a Dwarf, now they are all standing on the orc side.
The Lord of Sendra also realized the seriousness of the problem.
"I'll write to His Majesty right away!"
After saying that, the Lord of Sendra quickly walked to the table, picked up the pen and wrote it. Finally, he wrapped the letter paper into a small roll, stuffed it into a small bamboo tube on the legs of the letter eagle beside him, and let the letter eagle be released.
After doing all this, Lord Sendra breathed a sigh of relief.
"His Excellency Loschi, before His Majesty gives orders, please send scouts to investigate the situation. In case of precautions, the city defense battalion also needs the support of the army."
Loschi nodded.
"I'll make arrangements now."
General Loschi went out.
Lord Sendra lowered his head in the room, walked back and forth, and after thinking for a while, he gave orders to the guards beside him.
"Notify the city defense camp and send additional staff to always pay attention to the movements of the orcs. The patrol team on the city wall cannot be cut off, and the same is true at night."
After seeing the blood hole in the soldier's chest, the city wall of the Blade Fortress was as high as 30 meters, but it could not bring any sense of security to the Lord of Sendra. The bed crossbow was created. Do you know if the orcs have other powerful tools?
...
Xinying passed through the white clouds, flew through the towering snow-capped mountains and dense forests, jumped over the villages and green fields with smoke, and came to a prosperous city and fell into a luxurious palace.
The old man with a white-haired man who was raising a letter eagle casually took out the letter paper from the bamboo tube. He saw the dazzling red mark on the letter paper, his pupils shrank, and he turned around and walked quickly towards the center of the kingdom.
The Emperor of the Luonan Empire, Payati Kai, was woken up during his nap. He heard the news of the urgent secret report and quickly got up to the palace. He saw the letter paper on the table, opened the ink and started reading.
The guards on the side found that His Majesty's face suddenly looked ugly, and they couldn't help but feel nervous. The Luonan Empire is already the strongest force in the world in Madilan. What can make this man standing at the top of the world bother!
The imperial emperor put down the letter in his hand and put it in the flame of the candle beside him to light it.
The letter paper turned into ashes, and the imperial emperor fell into deep thought.
Not long after, the Emperor of the Empire turned around and picked up his pen, wrote three letters, and handed them to the waiter beside him.
"Let Xinying deliver these three letters to the kings of the three kingdoms."
The emperor of the Empire turned around and wrote another letter.
"Let the Shin-eagle deliver the letter to the Blade Fortress."
"Tell the Grand Duke of Singeza to be careful of the Eye of the Earth underground. Damn it, are there other Eye of the Earth?!"
"Tell me the order that the commander of Laqian Khan will lead 100,000 troops to the Blade Fortress!"
The messenger walked out of the palace one after another and conveyed the orders of the imperial emperor.
Immediately afterwards, the leader of the Kingdom Alliance, the kings of the three kingdoms, all received letters from the Imperial Emperor.
A certain king reads the contents of the letter paper with the light emitted by the candle.
"The orcs are supported by unknown forces, possess unknown amounts of excellent weapons and large siege equipment,... humans must unite and unite to the outside world."
The king's face was gloomy and calm, he pinched his chin and muttered to himself.
"Is it true? Or is there a fraud?"
Most of the kings of the three kingdoms were skeptical and kept a wait-and-see state.
Subsequently, they confirmed the reliability of the news through their respective channels and took back the army stationed in the Luonan Empire.
In the palace of the Luonan Empire, ministers gathered together.
"Your Majesty, the Kingdom Alliance is clearly a delusion to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, and you must not fall into their tricks."
"However, there are more orcs gathering outside the Blade Fortress. According to information, they are well-equipped and prepared!"
"When we fight with the orcs, the Kingdom Alliance stabs the knife in the back, are you responsible?"
"If you don't draw soldiers, you don't need to play with the Kingdom Alliance, and the orcs will cut off your head first."
“….”
Looking at the ministers who were divided into two factions and quarreled in groups below, the imperial emperor rubbed his temples and spoke.
"I have decided to draw half of my troops from each city and go to Blade Fortress."
The words of the Emperor of the Empire put an end to the quarrel.
Soldiers from all over the Luonan Empire gathered in the Blade Fortress, but they didn't know that what they were about to face was an enemy beyond imagination.
