816: Zither Emperor Episode 38 Battle Against Faran Chapter 260 Faran, Troops at the Gates (Part 1) 816: Zither Emperor Episode 38 Battle Against Faran Chapter 260 Faran, Troops at the Gates (Part 1) “Yes,” the tribal leaders responded in unison, a battle crucial to the survival of Qin City was about to begin.
An intangible pressure spread across the north of the Milan Empire; this battle was of significance not only for the life and death of Qin City but also affected the overall situation across the entire Ryuzakinus Continent.
If Qin City fell, Milan would be destroyed.
If Qin City could withstand this battle, then there was still a chance for everything.
The war between the Landias Empire and the Milan Empire had now condensed within the Burna Mountain Range in the northern part of the continent.
From any perspective, nobody was optimistic about Qin City’s odds.
Faran—that was the sacred place of Magicians, even the land of faith for the humans of the eight countries on the Ryuzakinus Continent.
For a thousand years, this was the first time Faran had dispatched troops; did that represent a power of faith that Qin City could contend with?
Thor Hammer Fort.
“Report—” A messenger ran in swiftly.
With the rest he had had this while, Guti’s body had long since recovered, but the loss of Thor’s Hammer had hit him hard.
Not only had the offensive and defensive capabilities of Thor Hammer Fort been greatly reduced, but it had also caused his personal strength to drop rapidly.
The power that once made him stand out among the other two chieftains no longer seemed so transcendent.
“What is it?” Guti asked indifferently.
Perhaps because he had endured so many blows recently, his will had bee much more steady than before, no longer easily provoked to anger, but his entire demeanor had bee more somber.
“A letter from Landias,” the messenger said as he quickly came forward, presenting a large envelope sealed with red wax.
Guti’s heart stirred, and his expression became solemn.
He exchanged a glance with Tiger King Jo Cole at his side, then rapidly opened the envelope and began to read intently.
How long does it take to read a letter?
But for Guti and Jo Cole, those moments felt like a century had passed.
“Heaven helps us—” Guti roared with laughter, looking up to the sky as if to vent all the resentment and frustration he had endured, his lion’s eyes ablaze with light, laughing three times wildly.
The aura around his body was no longer that of defeat, but rather an air of domineering power returned.
Jo Cole’s gaze also sharpened.
Without waiting for Guti to speak, he said to the messenger, “Convey mine and Big Brother Guti’s order.
All tribe manders are to gather here immediately, to await our mand.”
“Yes,” the messenger looked at Guti, and seeing no objection, quickly agreed and ran down.
Guti gripped the letter in his hand, turning his eyes to Jo Cole, “Brother, our chance has finally e.
After days of biding our time, this moment we have awaited has arrived.
This time, I want to see how, without the support of Qin City and with the troops called back to the south, the Milan Empire will handle the charge of my one million fierce lions.”
Jo Cole nodded vigorously, “This time, we set out in full force.
Opportunity knocks but once, and if missed, it will not e again.
No matter what, we must seize Holy Light City.
Once we breach the Milan Empire territory, we can then make up for all our previous losses.
When the time es, let the Milanese moan under our feet; kill all the men, and reduce the women to our slaves.
The glory of the Beastman will be unleashed in our hands.
Big Brother Guti, if we succeed in this battle, not even the Amethyst Behemoth will be able to threaten our status among the Beastmen.”
Faran’s movement had entirely influenced the battle situation, just as Ye Yinzhu had predicted before he left Holy Light City.
As the Qin City and Faran were on the verge of battle, the Beastman Army moved, and at this time, Martin, leading the remaining 400,000 elite in Holy Light City, was also fully prepared.
With a flip of roles, Martin knew he was now fighting for perseverance.
Even though the final victory seemed to have slipped away, as one of the famed manders of the continent, Martin would not easily promise.
Even if it meant fighting to the last soldier, the Northern Legion would not retreat one step.
…
“Report, no traces of the Behemoth Beast have been found within Qin City.
The city is extremely calm.
Although it is winter, the various plants inside the Burna Mountain Range are still abundant, obstructing our view, and preventing us from making accurate observations.”
Master Sloan listened quietly to the Pegasus Knight’s report, the cold smile on his face growing even thicker, “No one, huh?”
Standing behind Sloan, An Qi whispered, “Teacher, could it be that Qin City received the news and knew we were ing to attack, so they evacuated everyone?”
Sloan shook his head and said, “That’s impossible.
Qin City’s foundation lies within the Burna Mountain Range.
According to the information we have, there are at least over two million remnants with the Eastern Dragon bloodline inside Qin City, plus those different races supporting Qin City, bringing the total population close to three million.
How could such an enormous number be pletely evacuated within three days?
The reason I rushed here so quickly was to not give them the chance to escape.”
Gerard, the Holy Pegasus Knight, nodded and said, “Master Sloan is correct.
According to our observations, the terrain within the Burna Mountain Range is plex.
It is impossible for millions of people to evacuate from the mountains within three days.
Moreover, judging from those tall walls on the outskirts of the Burna Mountain Range, the construction of Qin City consumed massive amounts of manpower and resources.
The entire Burna Mountain Range has been included within its confines, forming an immense fortress.
It would be foolish to not use such an advantage unless the mander of Qin City is a fool.
Plus, the resources that Qin City possesses are definitely not something they would willingly abandon.
It is said that the Dwarf race and Goblin tribe have appeared in Qin City, and the things these two races create are extremely precious; moving them would also require a lot of time.”
Sloan glanced at An Qi next to him, “All these are still not the most important.
When Qin City was first established, it didn’t yet have the outright support of the Eastern Dragon remnants.
Back then, the backbone of Qin City was the Elf Tribe.
The Elves resettled within this Burna Mountain Range, where the Tree of Life took root again, and that isn’t something that can be moved.
An Qi, don’t you think so?”
An Qi shuddered inwardly and quickly nodded, saying, “Once the Tree of Life has taken root, it would be extremely difficult to move.
I can sense that the ancient Tree of Life has evolved into the Ancient Tree, making it even harder to relocate.
Even with my power, it would take at least a year to move it out of Qin City without harming its essence under the guise of a natural blessing.
However, the Ancient Tree cannot be moved away from the ground, it can only depart based on its own ability to move.
Three days is not enough for it to leave Qin City.
Teacher, your deduction is too accurate.
That wench Anya probably doesn’t wish to abandon the Ancient Tree either.
Inside Qin City, there must be an ambush waiting for us.”
Sloan sneered coldly, “So what if there is an ambush?
Can it possibly stop my Faran Army from flattening this tiny Qin City?
I want to show Ye Yinzhu what real power is.
Be it the Behemoth Beast or the Elf Tribe, they’re all just a group of clowns in front of Faran.
Opposing Faran only leads to one oute.
Sir Gerard, order the entire army to depart, and let’s advance towards Qin City from the front.
During the march, instruct the legions to protect the magicians to guard against surprise attacks from the enemy.”
“Yes, Master Sloan.”
The Faran Army began to move, a total of over 60,000 men, slowly pressing toward the direction of Qin City.
The Legions of Pegasus Knights and Magic Eagle Knight Legion were in the sky, while the remaining four infantry and cavalry legions were positioned at the front, rear, left, and right, sheltering the Magician Corps at the center.
It’s worth mentioning that of the four infantry and cavalry legions, the one at the very front was led by Sir Shaquille, the Mammoth Knight Group, which is ranked even above the Legions of Pegasus Knights, and sits second among all of Faran’s Twelve Legions of Holy Paladins.
Mammoths, among the Magical Beasts, definitely belong to the largest in size.
Each mammoth is over ten meters tall and nearly forty meters long, their bodies covered with thick, dark yellow keratin.
On their huge heads, two winding tusks protrude, and on their foreheads, there is a conical horn around three meters long and incredibly thick.
The Mammoths had only one direct method of attack: the charge.
If they were to charge on the plains, then no ordinary Behemoth Beast could withstand the force of their advance.
Their basic mode of attack is somewhat similar to that of the War Behemoth Glacis, even their size is alike.
If there were only a few, or even dozens of Mammoths, it wouldn’t really matter.
Although they’re like a reduced version of the War Behemoth, their actual bat effectiveness certainly cannot be pared with Glacis, after all, they are only rank seven Magical Beasts.
However, when tens of thousands of Mammoths are gathered together, once they initiate a charge, no land army could withstand them head-on, not the Army of Behemoths, not even the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry of Qin City.
Every year, Faran would receive tributes of various resources from the Eight Continent Countries; aside from Magic Crystal Stones reserved for the mages, the vast majority of the remaining resources were invested in Faran’s Twelve Knight Regiments, with the Mammoth Knight Group consuming the most resources among them.
When Faran first established the Mammoth Knight Group, there was only one goal: to ensure that no enemy could confront Faran head-on.
This shows how high their expectations were for the Mammoth Knight Group.
