Chapter 1258, The Opening of the Elven Civil War

The latest website: In 2524 of the Imperial Calendar, thousands of dark elf warships and black arks approached the Ulthuan roundabout from the west, officially announcing the opening of the elf civil war.

This hit the high elves by surprise. As we all know, the high elves have just officially expelled the last invading Chaos demon under the leadership of Tyrion, the regent of Ulthuan, and drove all the enemies out of Ulthuan. On gathered almost all of Ulthuan's troops, and even some dragon princes of Caledor volunteered to join Tyrion's ranks.

After exiling all the Chaos demons, according to the previous agreement of the High Elf War Council, Tyrion only needs to maintain this peaceful state for one year, and he will be crowned as the twelfth Phoenix King, which was Tyrion's dream Ever since the High Elf Warlord gained absolute power, the scene of himself becoming the Phoenix King kept appearing in his mind.

But when this moment really came, Tyrion couldn't feel very happy. On the contrary, there was only emptiness left in his mind.

Alarielle has been missing for a long time, his lover is gone.

His close friends Eltharion and Belannar have been missing for a long time, and so is Etila.

At the beginning, Tyrion kept trying to deceive himself, maybe they were just in trouble, maybe they had rescued Alisara just because of some circumstances they could not return to the old world, maybe Eltharion and the others were already returning to Ulthuan on the way.

However, months passed, and months passed, and now, more than a year later, no matter what trouble Eltharion was in, there should be at least some news.

Tyrion tried his best to block and ignore the news that the great wizards of the White Tower of Hoeth confirmed that the great "Wisdom" Belannar was dead. The magic net has collapsed".

Doesn't Tyrion know what is going on with his daughter Alisara? What happened to Elsa Leon and the other three?

He had already thought about it, but he was unwilling to accept the fact that the guardian of Ulthuan found that he was powerless against everything in front of him. He could solve any enemy in front of him, and he could destroy any obstacle that blocked him. One of the most dazzling heroes of the elves, Tyrion is a well-deserved high-elf hero who soaked "responsibility", "glory" and "duty" deep into his bone marrow. When Ulthuan is in danger, he must stand up Out, which prevented him from saving his daughter again.

But this also led to Nagashza, he only had time to meet Alisara for the last time.

Sitting in the armchair beside the throne of the Phoenix King,

Tyrion closed his eyes tightly: "Is there still no news from Teclis? My brother, what is he doing?!"

Standing next to the regent was Kesier, captain of the White Lion Guard.

Kosir was still mourning the death of Finnuba. On the day of One Piece's funeral, watching Finnuba, whose body had been parked for several months and whose body had stink, was reduced to ashes in the flames. As his best friend, Kohir Hill didn't cry, he just changed the white lion fur on his body to black, and then stood silently in front of Finnuba's fire, pouring down two glasses of fine wine, one to honor the Phoenix King and one to himself.

The captain of the white lion stood alone in front of the fire until the flames were extinguished until dawn. From that day on, the captain of the white lion guard always wore a black robe to mourn his best friend. How did he die, why did he die? He had no choice but to blame himself. The purpose of the White Lion Guard is to protect the Phoenix King. Now that Finnuba is dead, he will bear all the responsibilities.

On the one hand, Tyrion deeply admired Kothier's loyalty and friendship. The regent never punished the loyal and brave White Lion Captain for his mistakes. On the other hand, Tyrion also secretly wondered why Finubar would be slain in the impenetrable Phoenix Court.

At that time, in order to protect the safety of the Phoenix King, the Star Iron Gate of the Phoenix King Court was closed tightly. Dozens of White Tower Archmages set up an indestructible magic circle, and the assassins had to eliminate at least one-third of the White Tower. Only the Archmage can disable the magic circle.

What if someone could sneak in and break in?

It's also impossible, the hinge on the star iron gate is so strong that even if you use the Yangyan sword, you have to hack for three or four hours to break it open.

Then the conclusion is ready to come out.

There is an inner ghost in the Phoenix Royal Court! And it is an inner ghost who is powerful enough to directly affect the guardian magic.

There are only three people in Ulthuan who have the opportunity to quietly crack the magic defense and frontal defense to kill Finubar or at least provide assistance.

Obviously, this person cannot be Tyrion himself. Tyrion knows that he has the idea of ​​replacing Finubar, but he has no need to do so—as the peak powerhouse in the sanctuary, Tyrion can at least survive. More than 2000 years, and Finnuba is already more than 600 years old, he even just needs to wait for a while, is one or two hundred years long for Gao Jing?

This person will not be Kosir, Tyrion knows Kosir's loyalty, as long as he can, Kosir will die for Finuba without hesitation, if he wants to kill Finuba, Finuba Already died ten thousand times.

Since the inner ghost is not Tyrion himself, nor the captain of the White Lion, Kesier, who is left?

"The High Magister Teclis still has no news, and every messenger sent has not seen the Supreme Magister himself, my Regent King." Kosier whispered, Tyrion didn't know he thought of it Where, realizing what, the Regent felt a surge of exasperation, some crazy blood was breaking free of him, and he realized that from the moment he became Regent, many things had left him, love, Family affection, friendship, these things abandoned him or betrayed him one by one.

"Your Majesty?" Kosir's voice continued, and Captain White Lion said worriedly, "Are you listening? Do you need me to send White Lion guards, or go to the White Tower in person?"

"He is my younger brother, and Teclis is my younger brother! Kosier, remember!" Tyrion suddenly erupted, and the regent roared like a beastman: "Not allowed! Except Other than me, no, I don't allow it."

"Yes." Kosier was silent.

It's not over.

In the ten days since Tyrion drove the last Chaos Daemon out of Ulthuan, one bad news after another has reached the Phoenix Court.

The storm fleet of the dark elves attacked the kingdom of Tyrannok, just after the chaos was expelled, the exhausted kingdom of Tyrannok was attacked by the dark elves, and the ancient watchtowers collapsed, destroyed by witchcraft or swallowed by flames. Along the pier, proud dragon boats glisten before sinking peacefully beneath the waves.

In a panic, Prince Mowa of Tyranok summoned all the troops of Tyranok, and fought against the Black Ark pirates led by the legendary dark elf hero, Druzzi navy commander Loxia-Fallen Heart on the coast, which lasted for two days. After a few days of fighting, the Kingdom of Tyranok repelled the Corrupted Heart's Black Ark pirates at an extremely painful price. Prince Mowa was seriously injured in the battle and died three days later.

The Asurs were glad that the dark elves were repelled, but in fact, this was just a cover-up by Malekith. This time, the Witch King's army was unprecedentedly large. Qi Dajun immediately turned to attack Nagares, aiming at the Eagle Gate.

The ratio of the Dark Elf army to the Eagle Gate defenders was thirty to one, and Prince Ivanen, who was in charge of guarding the Eagle Gate, knew he was facing a desperate war.

In normal times, even if it is thirty to one, Eagle Gate is confident that it will be able to support the arrival of reinforcements.

But the current situation is extremely bad. In the war against Chaos for nearly a year before, the high elves suffered large-scale attacks on various fortresses throughout the island, and paid a huge price. The Eagle Gate also suffered from Nurgle Demon 60% of the defenders were either injured or killed, and many people were temporarily recruited, but there were still 40% of the vacancies, and the newcomers were all recruits, without decades of training, how could these recruits be worthy of the heroes? The title of Eagle Gate Guard?

What's more troublesome is that six of the eight city walls that make up the grand pass of Xiongying Gate have been damaged, and the repair work is far from complete. Compared with other passes that are tens of meters high, the most severely damaged part of the city wall is only as tall as three people. A grapple and noose are needed, and the dark elf can jump over it with a single leap.

The battle started at dawn, and Prince Ivanen led the guards of the Eagle Gate to fight for a day and a night. Malekith ordered his champion Marus-Black Blade to be the vanguard, but Marus launched three attacks successively and was defeated by the Eagle Gate. The defenders of the Eagle Gate stubbornly pushed back, and with the arrival of the knights of Erion, the defenders of Chrace and the chariots of Tyranok, the dark elves looked like they were about to face yet another defeat.

Marus was helpless. In order not to bear the terrible punishment of the Witch King, he decided to summon the great demon Zakan in his body. The appearance of Zakan instantly reversed the situation on the battlefield. Just like the restaurant, there are extremely delicious elf souls all around. They kill indiscriminately, and Prince Ivann, the defender's coach, was cut to death after only three rounds of confrontation.

But at this moment, the appearance of the Caledon Legion and hundreds of dragons gave the high elves hope for a while. The Azul burst into cheers, while the dark elves were trembling. The sound of the dragon's horn means why, and every Druzzi knows best.

That is the end.

The defenders of the Eagle Gate were extremely excited, and those young recruits couldn't wait to go up to meet the Dragon Princes from Caledor. They felt honored that a warrior like the Dragon Prince, with a great reputation, participated in the defense with them, They respected Caledon as much as possible, while also giving up the defensive position.

As they refocused their eyes on the dark elves, rune swords from Vaal's anvil pierced their chests from behind.

"Why?" Many young recruits were still asking before dying: "Why?"

"Because Caledon is now serving the Witch King." The dragon princes said with shame on their faces: "Caledor - the order of the dragon trainer, Malekith is the orthodox Phoenix King."

The dragons attacked without warning and without mercy. The number of dragons is very large, more than any dragon army seen after the age of Alario. Hundreds of dragons spread their wings against the sky. On the outer wall of the Eagle Gate, following the dragons The cheers gradually turned to screams as the fire swept through the walls.

By the time the high elf defenders realized that Caledon was not an ally, it was too late. The dragon's claws tore apart the thin armor skirt, the flames engulfed the archers, and the gate of the Eagle Gate was blocked by a group of people. The knights of Ledo opened, and all who tried to stop them were slain, and the dark elves rushed through the gates until all the high elves except Caledon were slaughtered.

As the golden giant eagle at the top of the Eagle Gate fell from the sky and turned into dust on the ground, the Battle of the Eagle Gate officially ended.

In the Witch King's big tent far away from the Eagle Gate, the Witch King Malekith sat on the main seat carelessly, and below were two high-elf lords who had surrendered, they were the Magister Council of the White Tower of Hoth in the Kingdom of Safri. Teclis, the supreme mage, and Imrik, the last direct bloodline of the Caledonian dragon tamer, the prince of Caledor.

It's so easy, so easy, Mom and Dad don't have to worry about my Ulthuan strategy anymore, Malekith is triumphantly spreading his legs and leaning against the backrest, he has never been so happy, Phoenix Court? Asur? The end of these hypocrites and usurpers has come!

Caledon, who symbolizes Ulthuan's oldest glory and strongest combat power, has surrendered to me!

Teclis, who symbolizes the guardian of Ulthuan and the highest magic crystal, has pledged his allegiance to me!

Tyrion? What are you fighting with me? You are surrounded by my people!

Is this why those who have attained the Dao help more than those who lose their way? Looking at the Eagle Gate battle report, Malekith tried his best to contain his joy, and the Witch King almost wanted to write the word "justice" behind him.

No, according to Lilith, this is mine! The Witch King is trying to adjust his thinking. He is still adapting to the change of his identity. He is the orthodox Phoenix King, not a usurper or usurper!

Imrik showed pain and shame, and Prince Caledor realized how disgraceful it was to use the dragon horn of the ancestors and summon the dragon to slaughter his compatriots, which would make Caledor's glorious tome Add a smudge.

But the guidance of the moon goddess Lilith in the dream made Imrik realize that perhaps the Witch King might really be the orthodox Phoenix King, especially after the goddess let Imrik pass through the barrier of the maelstrom and briefly saw When the Patriarch Caledor-Dragon Trainer, the Dragon Trainer told Imrik the origin of all tragedies, and told him that since the second Phoenix King, Beor-Shanar, no Phoenix King has ever received Asuryan Admittedly, that was a curse.

The pride and shame of Prince Caledor were put on the same balance, and the words of Lilith and the dragon trainer for thousands of years could not be echoed in Imrik's mind. It was hard to say that Imrik Whether he hates Tyrion more or Malekith more, after all, it is obviously shameless for Imrik to distinguish between two stinky shits which is more disgusting matter.

In the end, Lilith's promise proved decisive, as a dark elf ship in the mist with the holy symbol of Lilith's moon maiden painted on its sails appeared carrying hundreds of plundered dragon eggs. With the whispers of the goddess sent to Caledor, Imrik finally made up his mind.

I'm not betraying, I'm just trying to make Caledon survive the Battle of Heaven and the Last Hour, I'm not jumping back, I'm just trying to make Caledon great again.

Imrik suddenly felt that he was very noble. He endured humiliation for the fate of the elves and Caledor. He believed that history would give him a fair evaluation.

All for Caledo!

Compared with Imrik's self-hypnosis, Teclis was shrouded in deeper guilt and torment, and his face was paler than ever before. Teclis realized that if Imrik could pass "Caledor's fate This is fate" to hypnotize himself for betraying his people, and as the guardian of Ulthuan, he is responsible for the betrayal and the death of thousands of elves.

I'm sorry, brother!

All of this is Lilith's task, and I am for the fate of the mortal world.

can you understand me elder brother?

"Really, did Lilith tell you that?" Malekith's voice sounded, and the Witch King asked with great interest: "Are you sure? That Moon Goddess is actually on our side? I remember Hasn't she always been Asuryan's licking dog?"

"Please be respectful. Our gods have all descended into the mortal world. As the goddess of the moon, Lilith's ability to predict does not need to be questioned." Although Teclis's heart was turbulent, his face was expressionless: "We all know Isa and Kunos live in Athel Loren, this is a reincarnation, the reincarnation of the Battle of Heaven."

"Since it's reincarnation, why does she still help me? Can't it just wait for everything to restart?" Malekith still has a skeptical attitude towards everything: "We will die, but she won't."

"She escaped the last reincarnation catastrophe, and she plans to escape this time." Teclis said silently: "The only thing that can fight against the four gods of chaos is Asuryan's creation power. As I said before, You are not Kane, never have been, but she is Lilith, always has been, she even chose to marry..."

"A monkey." Imrik interjected. Prince Caledor remembered what Ryan had come to Ulthuan and what the dragon trainer had said. A monkey who knows how to speak human language."

"And the Lord of the Phoenix never said a word." Malekith couldn't help but said, "I didn't get any revelation."

"The Lord of the Phoenix has already been defeated in the subspace and fell into the mortal world. His creative power can do anything, and this is the only chance." Teclis emphasized again: "As the orthodox Phoenix King, Only you can inherit the power of Asuryan, the past disputes will disappear, and an era of great changes is coming. In this era, the friendship and hatred of the past will no longer dominate our destiny. She told us that if we For our people to survive, we must let go of the past and embrace the future."

"The elves will be unified again, and a true Phoenix King will rule the world. As the blood of Alario, this is your destined mission. The ancient war will finally end, and we will control our own destiny. together with God."

"Okay, okay." Malekith was moved by the scene depicted by Teclis.

The unity of the three essences!

The real Phoenix King!

Dominate the world and rebuild the elf empire!

It's on fire!

"So who is Kane's avatar?" Malekith, who had been burning for a while, suddenly remembered something: "It is impossible for Kane not to choose an avatar."

"Kane is the latest to come, but He has already chosen a candidate."

"Who? Who will be the destroyer and the one who will bring the end of the world?"

"he is the one……"
