Monarch of Evernight: One hundred to start the war
bsp;The arrival of the imperial envoy sounded the silent horn, and the **** battle officially kicked off. Groups of young heroes came from all over the empire and rushed into the Iron Curtain without hesitation.
The Dark World also regarded this **** battle as a grand event. The Eternal Night Parliament formally resolved and also issued an astonishingly generous reward, including not only various weapons and resources, but also titles, territories and Superior bloodline. Under the huge reward, adult warriors from many tribes came out in full force, and even older children were brought out.
If you have a pair of high-level eyes at this moment, you can see that on the Evernight Continent, the warriors from the Evernight and Dawn camps are approaching like two tide lines.
At the edge of the Iron Curtain, a small city that was originally inconspicuous was now gathering many imperial troops. Suddenly, the number of soldiers was more than the original residents of the city. Most of the buildings in the center of the city were requisitioned, and the entire city lord's palace was turned into a headquarters. This small town was the place chosen by Zhang Boqian and Lin Xitang.
On the sand table that occupies one-third of the room, the undulating hills, winding rivers, and scattered settlements are scattered and meticulous, just like the real thing. If you look closely, you can see that the models of important places such as fortresses, cities, and bases are also engraved with Force arrays on their surfaces, emitting various colors of light, representing different combat strengths and combat readiness states.
A deep black arc passed through the human controlled area, and most of the heavy ground models on the side of the dark territory were lit up, which was a sign of the completion of combat readiness mobilization.
As the last imperial military envoy finished reading his report, the towns in the western region of Mikawa County on the sand table also lit up accordingly.
The special envoy closed the folder in his hand, with a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and his back as straight as a fully drawn bowstring. This is not because there is anything wrong with his report. In fact, in this war room where there are many heads and general stars on the epaulettes, most people are always as nervous as him.
The source of tension came from the man in black and gold royal uniform in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Zhang Boqian never said a word from the beginning to the end, and even kept his gaze outside the window, but invisible pressure always enveloped the entire audience.
Lin Xitang, who was sitting at the head of the long sand table, raised his head from deep thought and said: "In this case, generals, please pay attention to the trends in the dark territory at all times. Dismissal."
The participants left the war room in a hurry. None of these generals from the empire's major legions and expeditionary force headquarters had been killed in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. But when Zhang Boqian and Lin Xitang were present at the same time, They behave like rookies facing instructors on the training field.
Many people dared to breathe a sigh of relief after walking out of the door, muttering secretly in their hearts. They didn't know what the Imperial Military Department was thinking. This time, they assigned these two marshals who had long been opposed to each other to the same battlefield.
The room quickly emptied out. Lin Xitang stood up and walked to the other end of the sand table. He reached out and picked up a mountain model and played with it. He looked at the large mountainous area in front of him as if he was thinking about something.
Zhang Boqian by the window turned around, glanced at the only major general still in the war room, and said calmly: "Get out."
The imperial military uniform of that major general is a little different from others. The golden piping is not a simple line but a cloud pattern, which is the symbol of the Imperial Guard. Under Zhang Boqian's extremely threatening gaze, he actually did not flinch and remained standing upright without moving.
There is a storm about to rise in Zhang Boqian's eyes.
Lin Xitang's gentle voice broke the tense atmosphere, "Wei Sang, I have nothing else to do here. You go and rest first."
The major general performed a military salute and left without saying a word.
There was no emotion in Zhang Boqian's voice, "Your Majesty gave you the Thunder Cavalry Guards to protect you. Are you worried that I will be harmful to you? Or... are you... monitoring you?"
When Lin Xitang came to Yongye Continent, he only brought one battalion of Beifu Army Guards with him. General Leiqiwei of the Guards appeared here, obviously he had just arrived in the past few days.
Lin Xitang frowned and said, "Brother Boqian, please be careful about what you say."
Zhang Boqian walked to Lin Xitang and stood side by side with him beside the sand table. He leaned slightly, glanced at the terrain in front of him, and said: "Although there are first-level mobilizations on Yongye's side, the team entering the Iron Curtain is nothing. With special combat power and powerful people, are the Eternal Night Council not interested in the things of the Sky Ghost? Or do they already know what is behind the Iron Curtain?"
According to the intelligence currently obtained by the empire, the dark camp actively responded to the **** battle. Judging from the level of combat power deployed and the number of giants known to have come to sit in the Eternal Night Parliament so far, it is not even as good as the last Eternal Night War that was inexplicably started. . This is inconsistent with the dark race's consistent style. However, no matter how many spies the empire uses, they can't get more information.
Lin Xitang said: "The empire's original intention is to fight a **** battle. Since the Eternal Night Council does not send out many, we can also relax."
Zhang Boqian pointed to the area in front of him, "Red Scorpion seems to have been on a mission to Yongye Continent some time ago." He drew a circle with his finger, including the western part of Sanhe County and the dark territory on the opposite side, "It seems to be At this location, the White Valve also had a team over there. "
Lin Xitang was silent for a moment, "That's the responsibility of the Seventh Military Division, and I don't know either."
Zhang Boqian didn't ask any further questions, he just raised his hand and brushed it, and the force array on the sand table fluctuated in brightness.
For the upper continent of the empire at this moment, the reaction of the dark world is secondary, and the big shots are all looking at the country. The current situation is delicate, the existing clan structure has been maintained for too long, and everyone wants to make a move. But when to move and how to move are the key. An aristocratic family is the foundation of a country. Which restructuring in history was not a bloodbath?
However, the political situation is a matter for the big shots to consider. For Qianye at this moment, it is more practical to earn his military glory with one sword and one gun. After sending Zhao Yuying to the Zhao Clan's aeroboat, Qianye briefly arranged Dark Fire's military affairs, packed up his luggage, left Black Current City, and entered the wilderness.
The **** battle has begun. Generally speaking, at the beginning of the war, a city with complete defense facilities such as Blackstream City will not be the target of a large-scale attack, so Qianye plans to take this opportunity to go hunting in the surrounding areas first, and So as to grasp first-hand intelligence on the battlefield.
His first target was naturally the territory of his old friend, Earl Nerubian. The Earl of Stuka was seriously injured by Qianye and Zhao Yuying last time, and he should not have fully recovered yet. One-third of his eastern territory was taken away by Qianye, and he lost a lot of resources, which is his vitality. When you are seriously injured.
No matter from which angle you look at it, the Nerubian Earldom is the best target. Of course, such fat meat cannot fall into other people's mouths.
Qianye headed west and soon reached the Silver Stream Fjord. The construction of fortifications was still in full swing, and several light cannons had been set up on the commanding heights, barely controlling the canyon river. He did not stay here longer, crossed the canyon, and entered the territory of Earl Nerubian again.
Qianye bypassed the werewolf settlement and aimed directly at the viscounty called Black Nest in the deep northeast. There is another spider demon entrenched there. He is already a first-class viscount. It is said that he is Stuka's brother.
The Earl of Stuka is also separated between Black Nest and Silverstream Fjord. It was not originally included in Qianye’s recent western expedition plan. Due to geographical reasons, unless the entire Earldom is swallowed up, it can only plunder resources. Occupy land. But it was different in a **** battle. The double rewards from the empire and the Zhao family made it very profitable to simply kill the viscount.
Qianye restrained his aura and walked leisurely through the mountains and forests, always maintaining his best condition to face the enemy. Not long after walking, a fishy wind suddenly blew in the forest, and a huge beast rushed out of the forest and pounced on Qianye.
Of course, this kind of attack could not threaten him. One side of Qianye's body gave way to the frontal attack, and then his crimson fangs penetrated the side of the giant leopard's body, and the blade sank directly into the heart.
A bright light flashed across Qianye's hand, and the rich blood essence rolled into his body along the blade. In the blink of an eye, the giant leopard fell to the ground motionless, and its dark fur also lost its luster.
After easily killing the giant leopard, Qianye frowned. With his current ability to restrain his aura and hide his whereabouts, in most cases, even the count would have difficulty detecting Qianye's whereabouts. However, this giant leopard, whose strength was only level five after its violent rage, actually discovered him from a long way away and rushed towards him. This made Qianye feel a chill in his heart.
Under the influence of the Iron Curtain, in less than half a month, the giant leopard not only became larger in size, but its fur also became darker, and its blood and essence were several times what it was before. This is by no means normal. Qianye inspected the giant leopard's body and found that all the organs in its body showed signs of overgrowth, so he had a vague guess that the giant leopard might have overdrawn its vitality, which resulted in a sudden increase in strength in a short period of time.
The next section of the road was not easy to walk. After just climbing over a mountain ridge, Qianye encountered seven or eight attacks, all of which were violent beasts at levels five to seven after berserk. When they see Qianye, they attack crazily and will not stop until they die.
Of course, the ferocious beast did not pose a threat to Qianye. Instead, it contributed a lot of blood and essence, almost as much as a knight. However, such an attack seriously hindered his speed. Qianye discovered that no matter how he concealed his traces, it seemed to have no effect in the eyes of these ferocious beasts. Whether it was a liger or a mountain crocodile, they could almost always spot him from a thousand meters away, and then they would attack wildly.
There is no military merit in killing ferocious beasts. Qianye really doesn't want to waste time on them, but somehow these ferocious beasts can easily see through Qianye's disguise. In the end, he really had no choice but to adopt the clumsiest but most direct method, which was to walk in a straight line and kill his way out.
The path Qianye chose was through the mountainous area on the edge of Earl Stuka's territory. This area was very barren and there was not even a settlement of the dark race. The journey that was originally planned to be quite smooth ended up being stumbling. It took Qianye two full days to get out of the mountainous area. During this period, he killed nearly a hundred ferocious beasts of all sizes.
However, although there was no military merit, it was not nothing. Qianye harvested a lot of precious materials from ferocious beasts, and absorbed more blood essence than a third-class viscount.
The moment he walked out of the mountainous area, Qianye suddenly felt that the sea and sky were vast, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Even the iron curtain above his head no longer felt so oppressive.
At this moment, a sigh of joy came from not far away, making Qianye startled. He turned around and saw a vampire boy who had just walked out of the forest. The expensive and gorgeous texture could still be seen in the tattered clothes. His skin was covered with scars, either claw marks or teeth marks.
It seems that this boy, like Qianye, suffered from vicious beasts in the forest. Originally, the vampires could make all kinds of ferocious beasts and poisonous insects retreat by releasing blood energy, but now it seems that it has lost its effect.
