Chapter 266 Chaos (Part 1)

Unicorn Empire, Noon, Yutungala City

Compared with the sunshine in the outside world, the city of Yutangala, which buried the entire Snake Man Kingdom, still seems cold and dim, but compared to the past, it is less quiet, because in every corner of this huge city, many players wearing a unicorn badge with a raised front hooves on their chests can often be seen. They are either besieging the Resurrection Snake people crawling out of the tower, collecting some herbs that are only available in the underground world, or digging out treasures hidden in the city. In short, a large number of players have made the entire city feel a little uneven and lively. In addition, camps have been specially built at some major forks in the city for those players to rest.

"Flash! Dark Sword!"

In a deserted garden full of reincarnation snakes in the city, accompanied by a clear and pleasant female voice, a condensed black light suddenly surged out of the air, and then the earth trembled slightly, and then all reincarnation snakes in the garden disappeared, leaving only a deep scar on the ground, as well as a girl with dazzling long golden hair, covered in ink black armor, holding a golden sword engraved with countless complicated patterns, faintly black, and was breathing slightly. When the smoke and dust in the garden slightly dissipated, a knight who was also a girl immediately handed a towel to the black-armored girl. The other party nodded slightly to her, and then gently wiped the fine sweat on his forehead with the towel.

"President, your [Elemental Absorption] is getting more and more powerful. In the past, you could only increase the attack amplitude by about half, but now you can achieve more than twice the attack effect in the past with just one light wave. I think if you only talk about attack ability, the president will be the most powerful spiritual sense on the emperor list."

At the admiring gaze below his face, Artoria smiled faintly, shook her head slightly, and then slowly inserted the sword back into a golden scabbard. At the moment the sword returned to the scabbard, the black on Artoria's body suddenly evaporated, and the armor also revealed its original color.

"Lanna, don't underestimate those emperor-level masters, hundreds of millions of players... Only eighteen people can make it to the Emperor's List. Their power can be imagined. Moreover, even in terms of direct attack ability alone, the number one in the Emperor's List is probably even better. It is said that he once destroyed a legion with just one blow. Although my [Elemental Drawing] can absorb the surrounding elements to increase the attack, it is far from enough compared to him, unless it is in some specific places."

"That also means that the president has the possibility of defeating [Thunder Emperor]."

As soon as Artoria finished speaking, she walked into the Eleventh Girl Knight from outside the garden. These knights Yue Yulou had also seen them. They were the twelve round table guards who Artoria relied the most. But at this time, their appearance was very different from that time. They all vaguely exuded the aura of masters. Obviously, they had also exercised quite hard.

"Culia, there is no problem with the Dead Soul Well?"

After hearing Artoria's inquiry, a tall female knight with brown hair and looked extremely heroic, immediately walked forward a few steps and said loudly:

"President, we have successfully suppressed the crowd of returning snakes and sent additional personnel there. There will be no situation where a large number of snakes suddenly emerged last time."

"Well... that's good. After all, last time, many members were killed by a large number of soul-returning snake people when they were not prepared. This kind of thing cannot happen for the second time... By the way, I remember you seemed to have said that you would give me a report, right?"

"That's right."

After saying that, the tall female knight took out a document and respectfully handed it to Artoria. Artoria glanced slightly and found that most of the data on it were all kinds of data from the guild stage, and the signator of this document was Churchill. Most of the data he wrote on the document were the flow of personnel and funds, as well as the consumption on the battlefield and the wealth retrieved from Yutangaro City.

"I didn't expect that the guild now has more than 1.3 million members. When I first took over the guild, there were only 550,000 people left. I didn't expect that the city of Yutangaluo was so attractive to players."

"This is of course. After all, in this chaotic period, there are not many places where we can level up with no one at all. Moreover, this city has many minerals, crystals and herbs that are not outside. It would be strange if players don't flock to it... You don't know how happy it is when Vice President Churchill knew that our guild completely controlled the city in his hands, he was like a child, jumping constantly."

When he heard the female knight talk about controlling the city, the white figure appeared in Artoria's mind again. In her heart, the greatest significance of this city was not the re-rise of the guild, but the ability to touch his heart and keep up with his footprints, that's all.

"Is Churchill still on the front line now?"

"The vice president left after giving me the information. He is very busy. He has to discuss future strategic deployments with the leaders of [Story of Liberty] and [Borbon] in the future."

"Is that true? He still has to do this kind of thing..."

At this time, Artoria deeply felt how correct Yue Yulou's decision was, because she hated to talk to those cunning guild leaders, and she knew very well that she did not have much talent in this area, or... was not shameless enough, but this was exactly what she had to have in a while.

"President, yesterday the intelligence department handed me a very important piece of information, but... I don't know if I want to tell you."

Seeing the female knight's hesitant look, Artoria was puzzled because she knew her subordinates very well, and had always been known for her decisiveness and determination. She had almost never shown such an expression, but at this time she was hesitant because of a piece of information, which seemed very abnormal, so she instantly became interested in that information.

"Hmm? What kind of information can make you hesitate like this, let me tell you."

"Uh... that, you may also know that recently, some intelligence in our guild will leak out for no reason. After tracking the intelligence department, I finally found several spies, but those spies are all girls, and their positions are quite high, and there is even a deputy minister..."

"Oh!? What's next?"

"then……"

Culia hesitated again, and she even turned her help-seeking gaze to her companions around her, but the female knights avoided her eyes. In desperation, she had to whisper:

"... After long-term tracking by the intelligence department, the origin of those girls was basically understood. They were all from...Bi Yanhua Alliance."

"The Red Riding Flower Alliance...I don't seem to have heard of it? Is it human?"

"No, it's a new guild in the Elf Kingdom, and their president...the president, you should also know that Ouyang Riko."

"Oh... it's her. I said that this name sounds so familiar, but... why did she target us? Although I have had several contacts with her in the academy, that's all. It seems that there is no grudge, right?"

When she heard the four words "Ouyang Riko", Artoria nodded as if she realized it. At the same time, the blond hair on her head also raised slightly, but then she seemed a little confused again.

"That... President, have you forgotten? The last time we met Mr. Safi, she held the head, and it is said that... her relationship with Mr. Safi is very unusual."

Artoria was stunned for a moment. After a while, she came to her senses, but then she did not say a word. Instead, she slowly raised the scabbard in her hand and gently stroked the gorgeous patterns on the scabbard with her right hand. Gradually, her eyes became more and more sharp, and the armor on her body began to slowly be infected by black. Not long after, her hand moved to the hilt of the sword, and the armor on her body also turned completely black...

clang!

boom!

In the blink of an eye, Artoria suddenly drew out the sword and waved it forward. In an instant, a black ripples that had a substantial amount swept everything in front of it to ashes. The female knights were also shocked by Artoria's sudden blow. When they realized it, Artoria had already begun to slowly insert the sword back into the scabbard...

"Hmph! A sword can only be equipped with a pair of sheaths."

Principality of the Bucks, Gulf of Christiania, Oslo

As the largest port city in the Principality of the Bucks, the entire city is completely located on the hills north of the Christian Bay Gorge. Facing the sea and backed by the mountains, the city layout is quite neat. It has always been a famous tourist destination in Asano. It has always been a pleasant climate, unique style and elegant environment. Thanks to the excellent wind shelter and depth of the Bay of Christiania, the economy of the port city of Oslo is also very prosperous. Almost every day, a large number of cargo ships are loaded here, and the fishing industry is also very prosperous. However, the city's biggest source of income is not these, but trade in Naga.

As we all know, although the Naga tribe has considerable wealth, its productivity is not very good, so the demand for human consumer goods has always been very large. An ordinary mirror may only be worth a copper coin in the human world, but in the Naga tribe, it can be exchanged for a large piece of coral, that is, hundreds of gold coins. The huge profits can be imagined. Therefore, countless merchants risk pirates, storms, and monsters to trade with Naga tribe. The same is true for the Naga tribe. So Oslo naturally gained countless wealth from this inequality trade, and even one-third of the taxes of the entire Bucks Guild come from this.

But everything was stopped with the break of the top leaders of the Duchy of Bucks and Naga. Just over a week ago, the famous [Dragon Slaying Prince] Beruwu led the most elite mad axe army in the Principality to join forces with the [Viking Axe] Guild to kill all the nobles and officials who were bribed by Naga, and announced the expulsion of all Naga combat personnel.

Of course, from the fact that Beluwu did not kill all the people, it can be seen that he did not want to completely turn against the Naga tribe, but his concessions did not bring concessions from the other party. On the contrary, less than a day after the incident, the Naga tribe ***ed all the ports of the Bucks Principality. No one knew when the Naga tribe mobilized such a huge army to the coast of the Bucks Principality. But until the incident happened, the entire Bucks Principality realized that the other party had already made preparations for action, and all they needed was an optional excuse and an appropriate time.

So the Duchy of the Bucks immediately released a national mobilization spirit, a large number of troops began to be stationed in various coastal cities, and at the same time, some semi-aborted fortresses and fortresses were re-activated. Everyone smelled the breath of war, especially well-informed merchants, and a large number of caravans and fleets began to evacuate the port, even Oslo was no exception...

"Prince, can we really stop them? It's a slim future to fight against one clan... Damn it! I'd better give us some more time."

At this time, Oslo seemed to have even been affected. The beach, which had been sunny for several days, had been surging waves, and the turbid waves kept hitting the reefs along the coast. The cloudy sky seemed to herald an unprecedented storm. On the high city wall of Oslo, there was a standard western hole, wearing a sky blue swordsman's robe, a black captain's captain's hat, and a thin sword hanging around her waist. The middle-aged man about thirty years old, watching the originally prosperous port become empty, couldn't help but sigh deeply and hammer a magic cannon beside him.
