Chapter 1221 The Eve of the Storm|?˙?˙)?

When a wicked little girl interfered again in the war between the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bajas Empire against the Dragon Kingdom, especially after the Dragon Kingdom openly expressed its willingness to protect the Dragon Kingdom, the Sorcerer King Ainz suffered another disastrous defeat. After Ur Gong escaped in embarrassment, he finally stopped their crazy and bloody expansion and conquest that lasted for nearly three months...

He had to stop, because not long after the Sorcerer King Ainz Ooal Gown was defeated and retreated from the Dragon Kingdom, he learned a big piece of news:

The meeting of anti-dark magicians and their evil allies, led by the Kingdom of Re-Estij, and participating countries including the Holy Kingdom, the Council, and the Dragon Kingdom, was held in the city of E-Rantel and ended successfully. Under the auspices of the third princess of the kingdom where a certain white magister attended the meeting, the four countries formally united and established an anti-black magician alliance and announced to the public that the Sorcerous Kingdom of Sorcerer, who is not planning to have a bigger conflict with a certain white magister for the time being Wang Anzi Ur Gongcai finally stopped their military operations out of anger.

He had to stop, because he found that there was no longer any place on this continent that he could bully for the Sorcerous Kingdom to attack.

At this time, in less than three months, starting from the Lizardman Lake, to the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, and then to the Katz Plain, the former Slan Theocracy, the Great Desert, etc. All the places have been taken into their pockets by the Sorcerous Kingdom, forming a new and huge country! And if you count the territory of the ally (vassal state) Bajas Empire, basically the evil alliance between the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bajas Empire occupies nearly half of the continent, while the other half is temporarily It is still in the hands of the Anti-Dark Mage Alliance.

that's all……

This world, or this continent of this world, has entered a confrontation stage of polarization and alliances.

However, although the possibility of launching a large-scale war has temporarily ceased between the two parties due to various reasons, whether because of fear, or because of being suppressed, the evil Dark Magician King An of the Sorcerous Kingdom Zi Ur Gong has never been peaceful, and has been carrying out various activities frantically in various countries...

In the Kingdom of Ri-Estig, especially in the territory of E-Rantel City, monsters from the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick can often be found appearing in the daytime or at night. No one knows what they are doing, but However, the people of the Kingdom and the Anti-Dark Mage Alliance are not difficult to judge: the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bajas Empire must be planning some kind of terrible action, or are they actively preparing to launch the next war?

So soon, the Anti-Dark Mage Alliance also took action one after another, and began to dispatch troops, dispatched elite troops and powerful heroes to the front line of E-Rantel City, and tried to be in a certain place in the future as soon as possible. One day, launch a military campaign against the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bajas Empire, hoping to completely end the reign of terror carried out by the Dark Sorcerer King on this land?

Of course, no one knows when that day will come... Perhaps one day in the future, it may not be that the Dark Magus King Ainz Ooal Kung will take the lead in launching an all-out war against the Anti-Dark Magus Alliance?

Therefore, at this time, apart from frantic investigations and spying on each other and low-intensity confrontation and probing at certain levels, higher-level confrontation or more intense wars have not erupted for the time being, and the two sides have maintained a tacit understanding. With the kind of peace that everyone knew would be fragile.

For example, right now, in the floating city above E-Rantel City, a group of high-level and important figures from the Anti-Dark Mage Alliance have gathered here and are having a meeting in a secret palace.

Sitting here at this time are the warrior captain Gazef representing the Kingdom of Re-Estij, the kingdom's second prince Zanak, the Platinum Dragon King representing the Yadlange Review Kingdom, and Chain, one of the thirteen heroes. The humanoid Platinum Armor controlled by Dulux Bethion and related representatives, the Holy Kingdom's Holy Queen Calca Bessares and the strongest Holy Knight Remedios Casteldio and others, and the dragon The kingdom's black-scaled queen who turned into a little human lolita is also on the list... In addition to them, a third princess of the kingdom, Lana Tier, has been acting on behalf of the 'White Magician' since she was authorized. Charlton Lyle Verseful has already sat here.

'? ? '

‘Strange, isn’t His Excellency the White Magister here yet? '

"This... It is said that she never participates in this kind of meeting. In fact, she never manages any miscellaneous affairs, so..."

'! ! '

'It's about an important meeting between the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bajas Empire. Is that also a side matter? '

'In fact, for His Excellency the White Magister, it is indeed true! '

'this……'

Seeing that an important person seemed to be absent, he didn't know who whispered something, and soon, he was refuted by the ruthless facts and was speechless for a long time, so he could only sit back in resentment in his seat.

'well……'

"Every time I see the floating city Elune Tiyu floating above the city of E-Rantel, I can't help but think of those things back then..."

'Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, a hundred years have passed! '

‘Nowadays, the Eight Desire Kings no longer exist, but yet another evil black magician king, Ainz Ooal Gong, appeared to bring disaster to the world. I don’t know how long this endless cycle will last? '

After so many years, I was able to set foot on this floating city of Elune Tiyu once again. Looking at the familiar guardians and buildings, the beautiful shell armor controlled by the Platinum Dragon King couldn't help but sighed slightly, and began to cherish the memories of the past. everything of.

It's just that things are different now, and only he and Rigrid are left among the "Thirteen Heroes" back then, and they can no longer shoulder the heavy responsibility of fighting evil... and their powerful captain back then , and is still sleeping under that castle, and even said that he is unwilling to be resurrected by them... So many things, even if he is stronger than the Platinum Dragon King, what else can he do except sigh?

'Lux...'

'Everyone here should know that there will be many passers-by in this world every 100 years on average. This is an unavoidable thing, and we have to get used to it...but fortunately, this time it is black and white. Magic, at least not all bad things, we still have the ability to resist, don't we? '

On the other side, it is also one of the thirteen heroes, but this time it is the captain of the original 'Blue Rose' who participated in this meeting as the entourage of the third princess of the kingdom, that powerful old woman Ligrid smiled Advise the Platinum Dragon King.

'yes! '

"Rigrid, you are right. Fortunately, it is not all bad. Otherwise, the Slan Theocracy may be a role model for us..."

Hearing his old friend's ridicule, the Platinum Dragon King just shook his head lightly, and stopped sighing, just sat silently in his own seat, waiting for the meeting to unfold.

'Ah! '

‘It’s not just the Slan Theocracy? I've heard that in all the places occupied by the Sorcerous Kingdom, such as the Kaz Plains, those cities captured by the Dragon Kingdom, and the tribes in the great desert, which one was not slaughtered by those monsters, and then transformed Became undead? '

'That's right. In our Dragon Kingdom, there are indeed powerful undead monsters left by the black magician everywhere. They are difficult to deal with. There are also some powerful undead wizards who control them. We have not been able to clean them up to now. ...'

'well! Your Majesty the Blackscale Queen, don't worry, there will always be a solution. Compared with the Slan Theocracy, which has been destroyed, at least you have kept the capital and half of the country to the south, right? '

'Yes, then thank you, Second Prince, for your comfort...'

'But everyone! '

'Continuing like this is not an option. So far, millions or more living people have been brutally murdered like that and transformed into undead creatures. The purpose of the black wizard king Ainz Ooal Gown Obviously, he is the enemy of all life, we must find a way to get rid of him and his Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick as soon as possible, otherwise, what awaits us will only be a terrible doomsday! ! '

‘But, Holy Queen, what can you do? What are we going to do? '

‘Proactively attack, we must not let their evil continue to grow in strength! ! '

'attack? '

'What offense can be used? All of our soldiers combined may not have as many undeads as them, and most of the soldiers are not stronger than their terrifying undeads. Those are high-level undeads! '

'But at least we still have the White Magician! ! '

‘Mistress Annie has defeated that evil black wizard Ainz Ooal Gong several times, but the opponent is very cunning, and can escape calmly every time...It can be seen that the opponent is not easy to deal with! Just like the last time, in the capital city of the Dragon Kingdom, the opponent lost an arm and was able to escape... Thinking that the opponent may still have many super-level spells and world-class props, I am afraid it will not be as good as the original Eight Desire King. weaker! '

'What should I do? '

‘Should we just wait and let him continue to act recklessly, transforming all the living people in the Slan Theocracy into undead before attacking us? '

'this……'

'It won't be long to wait, I'm afraid they will attack soon, as you all have seen, they have a way to transform and summon some powerful seventh-order death knights and undead in the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick Lich...that is an enemy like a nightmare, even if there is no Dark Mage King, our soldiers are no match for them at all! '

'call……'

'Then figure it out quickly! '

‘What else can I do? According to me, call the door now, anyway, it’s very close to the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick! '

'snort! We can't easily break through their defenses, but they have built a large number of fortifications on the front line of Ye Lantel City! You all saw those giant war puppets, they used them to build the city walls...'

‘And that Karn village, a small village with less than a hundred people, has five thousand heavily armored goblins stationed there, it’s just insane! ! '

'well……'

Just like that, before the meeting even started, everyone was talking loudly, but after all, no one could think of an effective solution.

'alright! '

'Everyone! Now without further ado, let's start today's meeting! '

At this time, the third princess of the kingdom who presided over the meeting, the acting city lord of Ye Lantel City, that Lana Tier Chardon Lyle Versefer seemed to say no when she saw the crowd arguing for a long time After giving some constructive suggestions, she finally stood up with a smile and started her speech:

'We all know...'

"The Sorcerous Kingdom has been making small moves recently, all kinds of monsters and means of investigation have almost been exhausted, and the actions of war are becoming more and more obvious... Presumably, it must not be far before they launch a new round of attacks. We must act as soon as possible, otherwise, we may be the ones who will be wiped out soon! '

‘We have no time, this is a life-and-death war, if we don’t want to become that ugly monster, we can only use our strongest strength to fight back! ! '

Although she doesn't have any power, the third princess of her kingdom, the agent of Ye Lantel City, still speaks to the powerful professionals or dragon kings present with great momentum.

'Well……'

‘Sounds great, but, Your Highness Lana, what do you want to do? '

At this time, the armor of the Platinum Dragon King asked simply.

Of course, he also knew that the situation was urgent. All the countries and people on this land were threatened by the dark wizard king Ainz Ooal Gown, but how to fight against such a powerful and terrifying army? If it exists, he has nothing to do.

'snort! '

'It's very simple, gather superior forces and powerful hero professionals, gather all the forces we can muster, and raid the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick! '

'Besides, the sooner this matter is the better! '

‘Otherwise, what we will face will definitely be a very embarrassing situation! '

The third princess of the kingdom, Lana, clenched her fists tightly, her face flushed with excitement as she said... She had never dared to imagine that she was Lana Tier Chardon Lyle Versefer There will still be a historic day to lead and gather strong people from various countries to defeat the dark wizard king Ainz Ooal Gown and save the world!

'! ! '

'this……'

"It's feasible, but it's feasible, but around the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick, there are their elite undead army and various guardians, and behind them is the camp of nearly 300,000 troops from the Empire. If we want to raid the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick , they must have a force several times that of theirs, but it is impossible to hide such a big move from the Dark Sorcerer King! '

'really……'

"Ainz Ooal Gown is not a fool, that evil skeleton is very cunning, and those equally powerful demons under him, plus that line of defense, it is not so easy to make a surprise attack..."

‘That’s right, it’s feasible to mobilize troops to attack the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick like a surprise attack. I’m afraid it’s unrealistic to raid the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick. '

'Well……'

‘Your Highness Lana, do you have anything else to add? '

At this time, listening to the discussion of the crowd, the Platinum Dragon King noticed that the third princess of that kingdom, Her Highness Lana, still had a confident expression on her face, as if she had already thought of the things they were discussing? Therefore, he felt that the other party might have a solution, so he hurriedly asked.

'certainly! '

'Everyone, I have considered your concerns before, because it is indeed not an easy task! However, what if we don't need to gather too many troops this time, but only use the troops from the floating city and the city of E-Rantel? '

Like a cunning little fox, Lana slowly expressed her thoughts.

'! ! '

‘Is this a little too much? '

'Nonsense! There are only more than 100,000 elite coalition forces in E-Rantel City. Even if the floating city is counted, it may be a bit dangerous to deal with the huge coalition forces of the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Empire...'

‘That’s right, I’m afraid we will have to retreat if we can’t reach the edge of the Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick at all! '

'no! Absolutely not, it's too messy! ! '

'I object too! '

'This is sending you to death! Although we all know that we must attack the Sorcerous Kingdom and the Bajas Empire as soon as possible, we can't do such nonsense! '

'That's right! '

'...'

Soon, everyone was discussing loudly, and they all agreed that the suggestion of the third princess Lana of that kingdom was not very good. Even the Platinum Dragon King who was very interested just now shook his head in disappointment, and he was also not optimistic. That nonsense plan.

'Everyone...'

'Who said...the army of the Bajas Empire must be on the side of the Sorcerous Kingdom? ! '

Snapped! Snapped!

'Come out! Lenas! '

Seeing that the reaction of the participants was exactly as she expected, Lana, who was still full of confidence, suddenly clapped her hands, indicating that a secret weapon she had prepared for a long time was ready to come out.

'! ! '

'she is……'

'strangeness! Why is she here? '

‘Your Excellency, Warrior Captain, do you know her? '

'certainly! '

'who is she? '

‘Let’s listen to what His Royal Highness Lana said first, what do you think? '

'Well, that's fine too! '

After whispering for a while, they all walked towards the woman who was still smiling and standing there with doubts or surprises, leading the woman who was wearing a hooded blouse and covered one side of her face with a half-covered hairstyle. Princess Lana in the middle of the venue looked over.

'Perhaps some have recognized the messenger...'

'That's right! '

‘She is Lenas Lockbruce, one of the Four Horsemen of the Empire, also known as "Heavy Boom", and this time, she is here on behalf of the Bajas Empire and the Emperor! '

Lana began to introduce the identity of the messenger to some participants present who did not know the messenger.

'! ! '

'is her? '

‘But, isn’t she wanted by the empire and removed from the Four Horsemen? ! '

"Before the appearance of the Dark Sorcerer King, I had heard of her, one of the four knights of the empire, many times. I also knew some information about her. I thought her escape was a normal thing, but I didn't expect the truth to be like this...'

In fact, the empire has issued a wanted report before, and the high-level leaders of the countries present who are more concerned about the intelligence of the empire naturally know about it, but they did not expect that the other party went to the city of Ye? here?

'! ! '

'Well! '

'Then this is a good opportunity! '

'yes……'

'Next, it should be almost time to act, right? '

‘Let’s see what His Royal Highness Lana will say? '

'...'

After staring at each other for a while and discussing, everyone was shocked, but they also guessed some purpose of the other party's presence here, and then they couldn't help but burst into ecstasy in their hearts.

Because they know that some wonderful opportunities have finally begun to appear!

'Everyone! '

‘Mistress Anne is also a little tired of the evil deeds of the Dark Sorcerer King. She doesn’t want him to turn this world into a country where only the dead are left, so everyone, this is our best and last chance! '

‘And this is the reason why I invited you to come here in the Floating Void City! '

‘Here, we can ensure that the content of our conversation will not be leaked out, and we can guarantee the secrecy and suddenness of our actions to the greatest extent! '

'We must not wait any longer! '

After seeing that there seemed to be no objections from the crowd, the third princess of the Kingdom of Re-Estage, who was known as the 'Golden Princess' and at the same time represented a certain 'White Magician' who didn't care, Lana His Royal Highness Tier Chardon Lyle Versefer began her official speech, telling her plan, and made a series of requests to the participants present.

No one knows what the participants in the palace of Elune Tiyu above the Floating Void City said that day, and they never left again, but secretly sent someone to send a powerful professional hero and Reliable high-ranking adventurers are just invited to E-Rantel City...

In this way, a century storm that has not spread began to brew in the city of E-Rantel...

At this time, a certain naughty little girl is still wandering around the world, and as for a certain evil dark wizard king Ainz Ooal Gown, of course, he is also intensively transforming the undead army and Spying on the intelligence of various countries, actively preparing a certain plan of his.
