Chapter 1,490 The Inevitable War

In the holy city of Estali, there is an attic in the mansion of a certain time-traveling magician.

Where is the crisis that the Lord of Wealth once warned about? Lin feels that this question already has an answer. Moreover, this answer should be something that I had already thought of but had been ignored.

What are the limits to moving to a higher level when attacking the two ancients of the World Tree? From the overall perspective of Lost Land, the series of coincidences is the biggest problem.

The World Tree connects up to eight alien worlds. The Mysterious Land has eight powers. There are eight fixed passages between the Mysterious Land and the Abyss, which are the gates of the Abyss. These eight passages are also guarded by corresponding guardians, making it impossible for both parties to travel freely.

Since it is necessary to help World Tree connect to the ninth and even the tenth alien world in the future to achieve a higher level of results, someone is promoting the Ninth Power Plan. I hope that the birth of the Ninth Power can break through the original limitations of the Lost Land.

And this plan is also supported by the ethereal will of the land. The biggest evidence is the attitude of the Guardian Lord.

Under normal circumstances, if there were any time-travelling people who dared to take risks and cause trouble, they would have been patted into meat patties and died until they could no longer die.

However, someone is still jumping around and even dares to dance in front of the Lord of Guardians. It is definitely not because someone is strong enough that the elder has no choice but to do anything. The only reason was because the backer behind Apollos stopped her behavior.

Then as long as the lost land fulfills its wish, the ninth power will be born. Then the World Trees can theoretically open a connecting channel to the ninth alien world and increase their strength to a large level.

Correspondingly, the emergence of a ninth fixed passage connecting the Mysterious Land and the Abyss is a very reasonable thing.

…

yes. So reasonable! someone thought to himself.

In line with the traditional virtues from the blood of my hometown: Taishan collapses in front of me, but my face does not change. Lin didn't have much emotion about the abyss invasion. Even the emergence of the Ninth Gate of the Abyss was largely due to the consequences of his promotion of the Ninth Power Plan.

Anyway, the door is opened at the southern border of the Sulitang Empire, which is still thousands of kilometers away from where he lives now. According to the standards of my hometown, it seems to be just a few provinces away.

But considering that this is a world where troops march only on their feet, even if the combined forces of demons and orcs can support themselves by fighting without logistical supplies, it will not be so easy to cross such a distance.

As for the mainstream race in Lost Land, the human world has been recuperating for more than two hundred years since the religious wars. As long as you don't collapse and make fatal mistakes, resisting the abyss invasion is not a big problem.

Since no one will come to his door for a while, he has mysterious confidence in several major empires. A certain time traveler covered his head with a pillow as a matter of course, so that he could not hear what was going on.

Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up, and there is no need for him, a short man who is soft-spoken and well-guarded. As for the accusation made by the initiator, we must firmly deny it!

We even have to find ways to prevent some people in the know from making unnecessary associations. Because there is no definite evidence to prove whether the two things that promote the ninth power and the opening of the ninth abyss gate are related or unrelated.

Just because things happen before and after, and there is an intersection, does not mean there is a causal relationship between the two. This could also be due to coincidence.

But for someone who was full of confidence, after seeing the first wave of operations from the official, that inexplicable confidence became not so full.

The Suli Tang Empire gave away the first 100,000 people, which had two major subsequent impacts.

One is that the southern border of the Suli Tang Empire fell in a short period of time. Because all the string masters from various tribes in the southern border were recruited, and they were all killed in one battle. The remaining old, weak, women and children of the tribe were unable to resist the coalition of demons and orcs. They were lucky enough to escape from the coalition's encroachment range. Unfortunately, they became sacrifices to the demons just like the men in their tribe.

Secondly, the war dead not only became food for the orc army, but also became sacrifices to the devil. A large-scale sacrifice of this scale caused a certain Lord of the Abyss to descend directly to the Lost Land!

If the Lord of the Abyss sneaks into the Lost Land, he will be struck by the guardian lord's true form at the first opportunity. Stowaways are already in a weak state, and when they meet the most powerful god in the land, they usually have no choice but to return home. Or just go to the resurrection point.

But this time it came through the gate of the abyss and a large-scale sacrifice was held. The Lord of Guardians has no reason to expel the Lord of the Abyss who descended in this way.

This is like someone traveling back home, holding a passport, obtaining legal visa authorization, and passing through customs legally. What reasons do domestic police units use to forcibly deport someone from the country?

The arrival of the Lord of the Abyss undoubtedly boosted the morale of the demon and orc army, making them more cheerful when killing people.

In addition to the two major impacts of this wave of situation changes, there are of course also numerous smaller impacts. One of them is the attitude of the Adventurer's Guild and adventurers.

Ignoring the tactical advantages of teamwork among the adventurers, they forcibly formed a legion and pushed them to the frontal battlefield. It would be fine if he won the battle, but his sacrifice would be in vain.

Only a few people could escape from that meat grinder-like battlefield. All of these people are rare strong men in the world, and no one has escaped unscathed.

Among those who lost their lives, there were also dragon slayers and demon slayers who could stand alone in other places. However, these people all died carelessly. The actions of the Sulitang Empire certainly aroused the anger of the adventurers.

But even if the Adventurer's Guild is a pan-continental transnational organization, they do not have the confidence to face an empire and file a lawsuit, and they have no way to seek justice for those who died in vain. However, they can stand idly by, not crossing the border, and watch coldly as the abyss and underground coalition forces wreak havoc.

In fact, due to the nature of the Adventurer's Guild's organizational structure, they have no way to force the adventurers to do anything, nor can they restrict them.

Therefore, when the information about the Gate of the Abyss leaked out, the guild could not stop the adventurers from gathering towards the ghost market. Today, the guild is still unable to force adventurers to enter the Suritan Empire and join forces to fight against the evil camp's coalition forces.

As for the mercenary guild...this group of people who are greedy for money realize that they are not as good as the adventurers. As long as no one pays, they won't do anything.

However, the defeat of the Suli Tang Empire and the subsequent changes also caused the mercenary guild to take action. Some small kingdoms or noble lords located in the south of the empire, in addition to mobilizing military forces in their territories, also opened their warehouses, moved out gold, silver, cloth and other items, and hired a large number of private armed forces.

These small kingdoms and nobles planned to build a line of defense south of the southern border of the Sulitang Empire to prevent the evil camp's coalition forces from invading southward.

Adventurers also gather in these places. Those with weak reconnaissance and stealth abilities began to form an army and conduct team training.

Those who are good at team coordination and investigation serve as scouts to constantly gather information. But even if they crossed the border of the Sulitang Empire, they would sneak in and leave secretly. Not only are they afraid of being captured by the evil camp, but they are also afraid of being captured by the Suli Tang Empire.

By the way, after submitting the information about the Gate of the Abyss, the three Ezios evacuated the southern border of the Suritan Empire. Therefore, they did not die in vain in the ensuing war.

The reason why they left was, of course, because the three people who escaped did not escape unscathed, and all of them suffered major or minor injuries. Ezio, who brought back the big demon's head, looked like he was covered in blood. That he could return to the human gathering place alive was like a miracle in the eyes of outsiders.

On the one hand, he needs to rest, and on the other hand, he also needs to change into war equipment against demons and orcs, instead of the original ordinary adventure equipment. So they left the Suritan Empire early and were carried back to the holy city of Estali by the Automobile Center's exclusive fast airship.

Compared with the actions of the countries in the southern border of the empire, the slowness of the people involved in the Suli Tang Empire is simply unbelievable. Except for the death of the first wave of southern Khan kings, there were no other defensive or massing actions.

Like a turtle that had one of its legs bitten off, its head and other three legs had not yet received the pain signal, so they did not move at all. The Suli Tang Empire's silence is like acquiescing to the evil camp alliance to take root in the land of confusion.

For a time, rumors that the Great Khan of the Suritan Empire had reached an agreement with the devil spread loudly both on and outside the forum. And the most frightening thing is that from all the signs, this thing may be true.

If we don't judge this way, there is no way to explain why the Great Khan of the Empire did not take any action in the face of the abyss invasion, as if he was indulging the other party's actions. It's just that rumors are just rumors after all. For now, no one dares to accuse an empire without evidence, which is equivalent to sweating the emperor's head.

Compared with the inaction of the Suli Tang Empire, the reactions of the other four empires are also interesting.

The most likely next target is the Gwana Empire, which is also the closest. As an established empire with heritage from an ancient country, they have the most experience in dealing with demons.

In the past ten years or so, the subjects of the empire, who have become increasingly wealthy thanks to the emerging industries that have emerged around automobile centers and technology guilds, have begun to integrate resources from all aspects to build a new type of army while also expanding their military capabilities. strength.

Although soldiers can fight with swords and armor. But whether you have been trained or not, the effect of fighting is still different. Who wants to waste his life in vain?

Besides, even if you don't play defense, you still have to play offense. Find a way to drive the demon back into the abyss and block the broken door. Therefore, no one is dissatisfied because of being recruited. Everyone has the consciousness to fight this battle.

The Vader Army and the Haider Empire are considered the second group that may encounter an invasion from the evil camp. Of course, a country named after the military is not afraid of war. They have even sent out forward legions, passing through various small countries and heading towards the southern border of the Suli Tang Empire. The military state is also expanding its army and armaments.

The Haider Empire stopped fighting for the Oz Plain at the border with the Karlsruhe Empire, and all its extended tentacles shrank. Although they dare not relax the defense on the fortress, they have shifted their focus north and set their sights on the abyss invasion.

The Karlsruhe Empire did not take advantage of others' danger. The civil war between humans and the cross-dimensional war against the abyss are two different wars.

If you hold back the human side, it will easily lead to public outrage. Although with the dignity of the empire, he is not afraid of being criticized by the smallest countries, but who doesn't want to lose face?

No matter how shameless, as long as there is profit, it is everyone's interest to drive the devil out of the Lost Land. Who could bear to live next door to such a chaotic creature?

So the Karlsruhe Empire also ceased. There are even young people who are eager for military success and are exploring ways to go to the northern border of Lost Land.
