Chapter 1197 The Troops Are About to Approach the City

Soon, a group of high priests directly explained the matter.

After the explanation, everyone looked at Nalant again, "Baron Nalant, do we need to do anything else?"

"Everyone, the two things that can be done now have been done. The only thing left... is to assemble the team and go to the Kingdom of the God of Fire!"

Nalant glanced at the high priests of the Kingdom of God and answered in a low tone.

The high priests of the Kingdom of God obviously paused, and then spoke after a moment: "Okay, Baron Nalant!"

Even though he knew that if he and others went there, they might just become meat in the mouths of the invaders.

But everyone has no way out, because sooner or later the invaders will invade their respective kingdoms of God.

Even if you choose to retreat now, it will just be a temporary existence.

Immediately, the allied forces of the Kingdom of God moved and headed towards the Kingdom of the God of Fire with Nalant.

Of course, in addition to this, there are also a large number of messengers heading towards various divine kingdoms.

In addition to mobilizing manpower as much as possible, they also informed the remaining high priests stationed in the Kingdom of God.

Time flies and it's ten days later.

As Nalant and others moved forward, the number of the Kingdom of God's coalition forces became more and more numerous.

At this time, the number of people has reached 1.5 million.

And they are only five or six days away from the Kingdom of the God of Fire.

Five or six days later, Nalant and others finally entered the Kingdom of the God of Fire.

Once again, they encountered the men sent by High Priest Dagmar and others to assist them.

"How is the situation now?"

When Nalant and others and a group of high priests saw the priests from the Fire God Kingdom, they immediately asked.

"Baron Nalant, as well as the high priests, the invader army has launched an attack. They attacked the border fortress just four days ago."

"According to reports from the escort soldiers who escaped from the border fortress, the number of enemies is very large, occupying the entire horizon outside the city."

"It only took them an hour to completely destroy and occupy the border fortress defense line that we had finally rebuilt and rebuilt."

The priest in charge answered with a worried look on his face.

"It only took an hour?" Everyone was a little shocked when they heard this, but they thought it was reasonable.

This time the enemy had a huge army of five invaders.

The fact that the border fortress was able to withstand for an hour was the result of the fierce resistance of the escorts.

Otherwise, with the number and strength of the dragon knights possessed by the invaders, the escort team would be frightened into defeat immediately.

"So where have the invaders arrived now, and how far are they from the Holy City of Fire?"

Another high priest inquired.

"The invader army is still more than five hundred miles away from the Holy City. It will take almost seven or eight days to reach the Holy City."

"Because the enemy is strong, the high priests responsible for defense have evacuated all the escort teams from the small cities along the way and arranged them all to the holy city for guard duty."

This priest had obviously accepted the instructions and answered all the questions asked by Nalant and others.

"Eight or nine days left? And it will take at least three to four days for us to reach the Holy City, so we don't have much time left!"

The high priests of the Kingdom of God briefly calculated and found that they did not have much time left.

It will take about three or four days to get to the Holy Fire City from this border.

"In this case, let's set off immediately!"

Immediately, the Allied Forces of the Kingdom of God immediately set off towards the Holy City of Fire.

But when setting off, Nalant let Xiao Huihui out.

"Little Huihui, remember, let them gather towards the Kingdom of the God of Fire as quickly as possible!"

As Xiao Huihui took off, Nalant warned him again.

"Yes, sir!"

Xiao Huihui responded, then flapped his wings and flew directly into the sky.

…

"Masters of the God Envoys, the spies reported that the main force of the Kingdom of God has moved towards the Kingdom of the God of Fire. If the calculations are correct, then they may have entered the scope of the Kingdom of the God of Fire today."

"What about Nalant? Is he among these coalition forces of the Kingdom of God?"

In a small city more than five hundred miles away from the Holy City of Fire, the invader coalition temporarily stopped to cook.

The small town that could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people was now packed to the brim.

Even so, this small town still cannot fully accommodate all the invader legions.

While several divine envoys were enjoying delicious barbecue, a subordinate immediately brought the latest news.

"Master God Envoy, according to the spies' report, they vaguely saw a foreign team of more than 10,000 people in the team. As for Nalant himself, they cannot be 100% sure because they cannot get too close."

The subordinate immediately answered truthfully.

"Since the alien team of ten thousand people is here, there is a high probability that Nalant is among these coalition forces!"

"Haha, okay, now that this kid is here, don't even think about leaving alive. The inheritor of the God of Glory, I really didn't expect that in such a remote continent, it would be the place where the God of Glory fell."

When several divine envoys heard this, they immediately made inferences.

It was basically confirmed that Nalant was also in the Allied Forces of the Kingdom of God, and these envoys showed joy.

Especially the three divine envoys, the Flame Legion, the Storm Legion, and the War Legion. They were severely wounded by Nalant.

Whether it's out of revenge or wanting to wash away the shame, several people are the ones who most want to kill Nalant.

"Okay, everyone, let's continue eating. We will set off as soon as we finish eating."

Did the invader army come this way? Except for encountering resistance twice, they were basically on their way the rest of the time.

In this way, their offensive journey this time was said to be a battle, but in fact it was more like a tour.

Time soon came four days later, and the team of Nalant and others finally arrived at the Holy City of Fire.

High Priest Dagmar and another high priest who stayed behind led the escort team to personally greet Nalant and others.

"Narant, you are finally here!"

When High Priest Dagmar and another high priest saw them, they couldn't help but show expressions of joy on their faces.

After all, the five invaders formed an alliance, and the pressure this brought them was truly unparalleled.

Even after many members of the escort knew how powerful the enemy was, the atmosphere in the Holy City was extremely depressing during this period.

If it weren't for the high priest Dagmar and another high priest sitting in charge, many members of the escort team would have fled in advance.

"High Priest Dagmar, how is the situation now? There are no surprises, right?"

Nalant immediately took two steps forward and asked the high priest Dagmar.

"There are no other surprises. The invaders are not moving very fast. It is similar to what we calculated before. They will not arrive at the Holy City until three to four days later."

High Priest Dagmar spoke immediately.

"That's good, at least there's still some time for us to set up a defensive line!"

Nalant nodded.

"Let's go, everyone, let's go to the city first!"

At this time, the high priest of the Fire God Kingdom could not wait to enter the city.

This time he followed Nalant on the expedition and found out that the invaders had chosen the Kingdom of Fire God as their first target. He had already become anxious and restless.

If it weren't for knowing that even if he returned alone, it would be useless without the support of the Allied Forces of the Kingdom of God, he might have set off alone to return to the Kingdom of God.

At the invitation of the high priest of the Fire God Kingdom, Nalant and others immediately entered the Fire Holy City.

At this time, the Holy City of Fire has evacuated all civilian believers.

In this way, even if millions of people enter, it still looks extremely empty.

At this time, many stone houses in the city close to the city wall had been demolished, and all the stones were carried up the city wall.

When the coolies and escorts working in the city saw the arrival of Nalant and others, their faces that were originally full of sorrow finally regained a little hope.

After arriving at the Temple of Fire, a group of high priests from the Kingdom of God did not rest, but entered the conference room without stopping.

"This time the invaders should have dispatched 400,000 troops per legion, with a total strength of two million."

"In addition, I heard from the escort soldiers who returned from the border that there are hundreds of dragon knights in these invaders."

"In addition to the Dragon Knight, it is now confirmed that the envoys of the five invader legions have also arrived!"

"So, this time the enemy is out in force, planning to annihilate all the forces of our Kingdom of God Alliance at once?"

After entering the conference room, Dagmar introduced more detailed information about the enemy to everyone.

After hearing this, the high priests frowned even deeper.

"It seems that is indeed the case. Therefore, this battle is directly related to the survival of our kingdom of gods."

"High Priests, we must go all out this time, there is no way out!"

Dagmar nodded, "I have sent messengers and mobilized almost all the escorts in our Kingdom of Talented Goddess. The total number is nearly 400,000. I believe they will arrive in the next two days!"

"We are the same. Except for a few kingdoms that need to continue to guard against the invaders' lair, the rest of the kingdoms have also mobilized all their escort teams. These teams will arrive later."

"We calculated the day before yesterday that the strength of our Kingdom of God coalition forces can be at least twice that of these invaders."

At this time, several other high priests also expressed their opinions.

Four million troops may sound like a lot, but there is a big gap in strength between them and the enemy.

Because almost all the elite guards from the Kingdom of God have arrived in the holy city.

There is nothing left except some of the remaining troops that need to defend the enemy's lair.

After the troops were counted, the conference room fell into a brief silence.

Obviously, the advantage in numbers cannot make up for the gap in strength, which makes everyone still pessimistic about the battle in the next few days.

"Everyone!"

At this time, Narant finally spoke.

"Although we now only have an elite guard force of less than two million, have you forgotten that there are other races in Io continent?"

"I believe that other alien races will arrive soon, so there is no need to worry too much about the strength of the troops."

"Although the enemy is powerful, we and them have come from afar after all."

"After their two million troops are defeated, there will basically be no replenishment."

"So, as long as we rely on the Holy City to defend them and then consume their vitality, then it is not impossible to win despite the ebb and flow of one another."

"In addition, the high priests represent the strongest leaders of your respective kingdoms. If you don't have confidence, then what will happen to the guards under your command after they see this?"

Although Nalant also knew that the chance of winning this battle was really low for the Kingdom of God coalition.

But even if the odds of winning are slim, it's impossible to just surrender.

In this way, regardless of whether we can win or not, what we need most now is enough confidence.

If even the high priests have a negative attitude, then the state of the Kingdom of God's Guards may become even worse.

When Nalant said this, all the high priests of the Kingdom of God suddenly blushed.

Indeed, what they, the high priests, need most at such a critical moment is composure.

But because of the strength of the enemy, they have also developed a fear of the enemy these days. This is definitely a state that they, the high priests, should not be in.

"Baron Nalant is right. Although the enemy is strong, we are not fighting alone. I believe that foreign teams will come in the next few days, and our strength will be strengthened again."

"Yes, no matter what, we have no retreat this time, so we must win this battle and cannot fail!"

After reflecting on this, the high priests of the Kingdom of God immediately changed their attitudes.

In the past, when facing the assassination of the Sun God Kingdom, although everyone was in a desperate situation, their will was not crushed, and they did not have too much fear.

In this way, it was hard for them to say that they were timid before fighting this time.

"Okay, high priests, since you are so confident, let's start arranging defense matters!"

Narant laughed seeing this.

Of course, that's not to say he thinks the odds have improved now.

On the contrary, he felt that even if these high priests of the Kingdom of God changed their mentality, it would not be of any help to the situation this time.

Because there was one thing he didn't make clear, and that was the ordinary invader soldiers. They could indeed rely on the arrival of aliens to relieve their pressure.

But what about the five divine envoys?

A god made him Nalant still able to contend.

But as long as there is one more, Nalant feels that he can't stand it, let alone five.

Therefore, how to fight against these five divine envoys is the key to winning this war.

It's a pity that Narant can't think of any countermeasures.

Because, apart from him, there should be no one else on the continent of Io who can fight against the Divine Envoy alone.

Even if it were the Elf King and others, it would take several people to put up some resistance.

"Oh, the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge. I can't think about that much now!"

In the end, Narant shook his head and didn't think about it again.

Thinking about things that you can't solve even if you scratch your head will only increase your worries.

…

In the next few days, the high priests of the Kingdom of God were busy setting up fortifications.

Not only did the moat be dug deeper and wider, but many deep ditches were also dug outside the city to restrict the enemy's movement.

After digging the deep trench, the high priests of the Kingdom of God felt that it was not enough, so they inserted many pointed wooden stakes diagonally into the ground.

It can also defend against the enemy's army and its siege engines.

In addition, the high priests built a wall more than ten meters high behind the city wall in the Holy City.

Although the thickness of the wall is only half a meter, it can temporarily prevent the enemy's attack in an emergency.

This is to prevent the enemy from being able to advance straight in after the city wall is blown down.

It can also be regarded as a summary of the experience gained by these high priests.
