Chapter 1846: Chapter 1045 Under the Moon Night_2
“I never thought that even such a distinguished personage of the Human Clan would hate those despicable Otherworlders so deeply, even promising the freedom to slaughter at will. It seems that this ti, those despicable people have no chance to turn the tables, hehehe.”
Under the sa tranquil black night, on the Northern Plain outside the Unfallen Fortress, an even larger army was advancing rapidly.
The night wind howled fiercely, and the blood-colored battle flags fluttering above the huge mass of troops, all emblazoned with the pattern of a longsword piercing a shield, were none other than the emblems of the most elite royal legions of Pars Empire.
At the center of the array of royal legion banners flew a battle flag, upon which a giant black dragon spread its fangs and claws, signifying that the commander of this grand army was none other than a mber of the Empire’s most prestigious royalty.
“Antonio, how much longer until we arrive at the base of the Impregnable Fortress Pass?”
A young commander dressed in golden armor and mounted on a robust mutated snow horse inquired of an old magician clad in a white robe, exuding an atmosphere of vast presence.
“Your Highness the Prince, the vanguard has already entered the Snowfield. We will arrive in three days.”
The elderly white-robed magician bowed respectfully with his hand on his chest, replying reverently.
At this point, the identities of the two were crystal clear.
It was none other than Prince Braddon of Pars Empire and Antonio, the chief magic teacher of the royal family.
Both had witnessed the battle at Kael Castle and had brought news back to Pars Empire.
“Are we finally nearing our arrival? When I was in the cave going over the battle, I just couldn’t wait to face off against that guest official princess from another world.”
Braddon licked his dry lips, his handso face brimming with the boiling will to fight, and said coldly, “Now that my Pals Empire has amassed a force of 1.2 million, I suppose that Otherworld guest official and the new young Queen must already be trembling in fear, right?”
Having said that, Braddon burst into unabashed laughter.
“Little brother, never underestimate the enemy.”
A crisp and cool voice rang out, and a female knight enveloped in an imposing aura and brimming with gallant spirit spurred her war horse forward, arriving surrounded by a retinue of guards.
The female knight lifted her visor, her brows knitted together on a face as delicate as the pristine snow: “According to the latest intelligence, Unfallen Fortress has already assembled nearly 300,000 defenders, including troops from the surrounding Otherworldly Lords.”
“Sister, you worry too much. I didn’t expect that even the rabble of Otherworldly Lords would be called upon. It seems that Otherworld guest really has reached the end of the line,” Braddon shrugged his shoulders dismissively, “This ti we have deployed no less than 50 of our main legions, and not just so re 300,000 rabble; even an army of 1 million can’t withstand the iron hooves of the Empire!”
At this point, the identity of the gallant female knight was self-evident—it was the newly promoted Tier 5 Powerhouse, the First Princess, Cecililia.
“Don’t forget about that moving mysterious city; we know absolutely nothing about it.”
Cecililia’s frown deepened as she crossed her arms, “Father has always taught us to be cautious and not to underestimate our enemies.”
“Sister, you are now a National-level Tier 5 Powerhouse, how co you have beco even more hesitant and cautious?”
Braddon gave Cecililia a sidelong glance, his contempt on his face becoming even more pronounced: “Don’t forget we have several secret trump cards that could easily destroy a city.”
“Not just one moving city, even two of them would be unable to shake a single hair on my Pars Empire’s million-strong army!”
“Since our Pars Empire has once conquered the Northern Territory of Coldfla Kingdom, there will undoubtedly be a second ti.”
At this point, a mocking smile surfaced on Braddon’s face again, and he said with a murderous aura, “And this ti, my goal is not just the Northern Territory region; I will thrust directly into the heartland of Coldfla Kingdom and take over its King Capital Lion City, capturing that little Queen!”
“Prince, you are absolutely right. With such a disparity in combat power, there is no possibility of defeat for our Pars Empire!”
The other commanders and staff officers under Braddon’s command also chid in, “This ti, Your Highness the Prince will surely take the lead and expand the territory for His Imperial Majesty!”
“A bunch of sycophants.”
Cecilia glanced at the group of generals, then crossed her arms and said, “Younger brother, don’t you find it strange?”
“This ti not only has our father the Emperor sent an unprecedentedly strong force, weakening the defenses on the other borders of the empire, but even the Grimm Kingdom next door, led by the Saint King himself, has taken action. This is obviously out of the ordinary, after all, the Grimm Kingdom has no deep hatred with the Coldfla Kingdom.”
Cecilia’s eyebrows twisted into knots, and she said with her arms still crossed, “Moreover, the simultaneous attack on Coldfla by the Five Kingdoms is too coincidental in timing. There must be so mysterious force behind this, manipulating everything.”
“Her Highness the Princess is absolutely right; this old minister also has a similar premonition. It seems like my Pars Empire has beco a chess piece on the board, but not the player controlling the ga.”
Antonio stroked his silver beard and said thoughtfully, “However, since His Imperial Majesty has made such a decision, there must be so consideration and balance in mind.”
“Indeed, our father the Emperor has always been one for careful planning; his considerations are not sothing we can easily fathom.”
Braddon gave Cecilia a look, then said fiercely, “Besides, even if there is so mysterious force behind it, so what?”
“Does it create any conflicts with us? Rather, it ans we can ride on the mysterious force’s east wind to better send our old enemy, the Coldfla Kingdom, to its grave.”
“The simultaneous assault by the Five Kingdoms is simply great news for us; this is taking advantage of your illness to claim your life. Even if that Mr. Lane from another world is as capable as soone with three heads and six arms, he won’t be able to withstand the simultaneous attacks of the Five Kingdoms.”
“All we need to do is to fulfill our father’s command, to kill as many of the Coldfla Kingdom’s bastards as possible and to joyfully expand our territory.”
At this point, Braddon raised an eyebrow and added, “Oh right, the only thing we need to worry about is not letting other countries get the jump on us.”
After finishing his words, Braddon’s handso face twisted as he burst into loud, hearty laughter.
Under the sa moonlight, a different atmosphere prevails.
On the vast plains to the west of the Coldfla Kingdom, a grand army glowing with a faint holy light was silently marching with incredible speed.
It was evident from the golden shields on their banners that this was the most elite Royal Knights from the Grimm Kingdom.
Blessed by the holy light, the Royal Knights always brought light and hope wherever they went.
But this ti, their goal was to bring destruction and slaughter to the Coldfla Kingdom.
Holy Knight Commander Jered held the reins in one hand and lifted the visor of his golden-embroidered battle helt with the other, glancing towards the golden carriage surrounded by the Absolute Defense Barrier.
That was where His Majesty the Saint King was resting.
Jered took a deep breath and his resolute face showed a hint of perplexity.
Although he had guessed that His Majesty the Holy King was about to launch an attack on the Coldfla Kingdom while observing the battle at Kael Castle, he had not anticipated that the usually amiable Saint King would not only mobilize the entire nation’s army, recall the majority of the troops guarding against Pars Empire and Ironhand Archipelago but also decide to lead the expedition himself; this was quite illogical.
After all, despite occasional friction, there was no ancestral enmity between the Coldfla Kingdom and the Grimm Kingdom. Such a risky gamble seed rather reckless.
“No, His Majesty the Holy King must have profound insights; he must surely have so deeper purpose.”
Jered retracted his gaze from the golden carriage and lowered the visor on his helt.
According to his knowledge, this ti His Majesty the Holy King even brought out a considerable amount of the terrifying Royal Family’s hidden strength. Combined with the simultaneous assaults by the Five Kingdoms, the Coldfla Kingdom was undoubtedly dood.
“Mr. Lane from another world, no, Prince of the Sacred Lions of the Coldfla Kingdom, although we have no quarrels or grudges, I apologize in advance. I will easily take the Sunset Fortress, then march forward to offer everything to the Supre His Majesty the Holy King.”
With a chilling gaze, Jered’s imnse aura intensified around him.
