Chapter 977, Dissecting the Alchemist, Lilith's Major Discovery!

News of the annihilation of the alchemist army.

Tire City didn't know about it until the orc forwards appeared on the border.

This kind of disastrous defeat is almost unprecedented in the history of Alpha Kingdom.

The city of Tire was instantly shrouded in a cloud of sadness.

"Lord Crow!"

"When will the support from the royal capital arrive?"

The Governor of Tire City looked at the royal chief alchemist.

At this time, he still didn't know that Crowe in front of him was an impostor.

Not to mention him, not even the king's envoy could tell.

Crowe sighed.

"This time the loss is too great."

"The power of the Royal Alchemist is difficult to reach in a short time."

Hear this answer.

The governor of Tire City's face suddenly fell.

"Lord Crow, you are the only alchemist left in Tire City now."

"If we hold on to Tire City."

"I wonder how long I can hold on?"

Crowe shook his head.

"I was sniped by an orc alchemist before."

"All the alchemy puppets were destroyed."

"Even if we refine it now, it's already too late."

This answer made the governor of Tire City break his teeth.

"Damn it."

"You shouldn't have done it before~"

He was getting angry.

The kingdom messenger beside him stood up.

"Your Majesty the Governor."

"Obviously you failed to protect Lord Crowe."

"Your territory was breached by the orc alchemist first."

"This is the result."

"And based on the information I got this time."

"This time the alchemist is chasing the orc alchemist."

"The most secret roadmap was leaked."

"Then our alchemist was sniped."

"And in Tire City, the only one who knows the alchemist's route is Mr. Crow."

"Obviously Lord Crowe will not leak it."

"but!"

"The actions of the alchemists can be discovered by spies in Tire City."

"As long as they squat at the city gate, they can monitor the alchemist's actions."

"So Your Majesty the Governor."

"You are responsible for your words."

Everyone knows that Tire City was infiltrated.

It’s just that no one took it seriously before.

Even indulgent.

Because the orcs and border nobles had maintained relative peace before.

There are spies of each other in each other's territory.

It can keep everyone calm and avoid misjudgment.

But who could have imagined that such a big trap would be revealed.

The face of the Governor of Tire City suddenly turned gloomy.

Once the pot of this matter is covered on himself.

Then his family is beyond redemption.

To know!

That was the most elite alchemist corps cultivated by the kingdom.

"Your Majesty the Messenger, don't talk nonsense without evidence."

"I~"

The words are not finished yet.

Crowe interrupted.

"There's no point in arguing."

"Now you should think about how to deal with it."

"Old Carlo arrived with fifty thousand vanguard troops."

"There are also a large number of alchemist puppets accompanying us."

"Based on their marching speed."

"We can penetrate our frontal defense line and reach the city of Tire in the fastest five days."

This is also what the Governor of Tire City is worried about.

Most of the orcish territories they had just won were not consolidated at all.

We were suddenly attacked and couldn't defend ourselves.

The original plan was to do it during the alchemist showdown.

The kingdom spent its time recruiting knights from all over to the frontier.

Form a legion numbering half a million and engage in a strategic decisive battle between the two sides.

Victory will capture the occupied territory.

But support from the kingdom has not yet arrived.

No!

It should be that they haven't been recruited yet.

Most of the kingdom's nobles were unwilling to come.

So the call-up didn't go well.

It will take three months at the earliest.

But who could have imagined that the war would progress so quickly.

"The territory is gone, we can grab it again!"

"If the person is gone, even if we grab it, it's of no use."

"I am ready to order all nobles to withdraw."

"Then rely on Tire City to resist."

"This is our territory after all."

"At the same time, we also have the support of the Rainbow Land and the Red River Valley."

"In addition, the distance for support from behind is shorter."

"If we plan well, we can hold on until the kingdom's support arrives."

The Governor of Tire City also had no choice but to do this.

Doing so would be equivalent to giving up all previous gains.

Those nobles were just afraid that they would devour his heart.

But for the sake of Tire City, he had to do this.

Neither the kingdom’s envoy nor Crow had any objections.

soon!

Letters of orders were passed to the nobles who had just built the castle.

The reaction of the nobles was almost unanimous.

He scolded the governor for being a traitor to the country.

Retreat without a fight.

Then choose to stick to it.

after all!

They invested heavily in their castle.

Almost bankrupt.

certainly!

Not all are like this.

To the northeast, the Cross Sword Alliance immediately led its troops to retreat.

Entered the Red River Valley.

The border lords in the northwest chose another path.

They gave up their territory.

He took all his belongings and hid in the jungle and became a bandit.

The border lords in these two places are all smart people.

But the border lords in the due north.

Each of them is a blockhead.

They brought their families and stored food, like nails.

They stuck to their own territory.

They neither left the territory nor took the initiative to attack.

But if the orcs attacked these castles.

They would find that they were just a pile of smelly and hard stones.

Even old Carlo was very troubled by these castles.

"Sir."

"We just captured a stone castle."

"Killed 100 defenders inside."

"We lost 400 orc warriors."

"The ratio is 1 to 4."

"Among them, there are officers who awakened magic crystals."

"The loss is too great."

"And after the attack, there is no spoils except corpses."

Old Carlo heard his grandson's words.

He was also a headache.

This is the most annoying thing about human pioneer lords.

As long as they are given a chance.

They can take root in a place.

Then reproduce rapidly.

In just a few decades, they can firmly control the surroundings.

If you want to attack, you will encounter huge resistance and have to pay a terrible price.

"We can't use our own warriors to attack."

Old Carlo made a prompt decision.

"Go find the alchemist."

"Just tell me my request."

"I need them to help clear these fortresses."

"Open the road to Tyre City!"

"Yes!"

The alchemist joined with the puppet.

The speed of the frontal breakthrough suddenly increased.

Those fortresses that are easy to defend and difficult to attack became vulnerable in front of the alchemy puppet.

"No one can break my family."

"For the Bill family."

On a castle.

The man holding the knight's sword, waving the weapon in his hand, constantly attacked the flying puppets that rushed towards his castle.

Although his strength is good.

Each sword can kill one.

But the number of flying puppets is too large.

It didn't take long for the man and his castle to be swallowed up.

And on the hill in the distance.

The two alchemists standing looked at the castle on fire.

A hint of a grim smile appeared at the corners of their mouths.

They are orc alchemists.

The flying puppets they made are relatively basic firebirds.

If it were any other alchemist, they would be able to deal with it easily.

But not an alchemist, facing these cheap alchemical creatures with incendiary agents.

There is almost no resistance at all.

"The sixth seat."

"Where should we go next?"

"Southwest!"

"The bishop's order."

"Go and search for the trace of a man named Fang Yuan."

"Let's go!"

The Beast God has infiltrated the kingdom for so long, and naturally he has absorbed some alchemists under his command.

This time!

In order to find Fang Yuan.

The Beast God awakened these lurking soldiers.

These two are just one of the teams.

In all directions.

There are fifty such teams.

A full one hundred people!

These are all the alchemists that the Beast God has absorbed in this world.

In order to deal with Fang Yuan.

He wants to kill him in one battle.

At the same time.

In the territory of the Red Mill.

The latest battlefield intelligence was delivered to Fang Yuan.

The battlefield intelligence he has.

Even more detailed than the governor of Tyre City.

"The information that Guderian passed on through Kro."

"Now Tyre City has ordered the front-line legion to withdraw."

"Prepare to delay in Tyre City until the support legion arrives."

The messenger soldier just finished speaking.

Christian beside him sneered.

"Stupid decision."

"They probably want to rely on the Red River Valley and the Rainbow Land."

"The orcs will definitely recognize their intentions."

"It will definitely be after clearing the frontal enemy."

"Heavy troops will be deployed on both wings."

"Then the main force will attack Tyre City fiercely."

"Next, it depends on whether Tyre City is strong or the orc siege legion is strong!"

"But I think there is a high probability that Tyre City will be breached!"

After hearing Christian's analysis, Fang Yuan looked at the map.

"That means that we will also be attacked in this direction."

Christian nodded.

"Definitely!"

"Lord, our city is built on the trade route."

"Unless we can block it from the periphery."

"Otherwise, the orcs will certainly have a heavy army to encircle and suppress it."

"We need to be prepared for battle."

Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and looked at the map again.

"Are there any latest news?"

"Border nobles in other directions outside Tyr City."

"I need to know the intelligence there."

"Yes, sir."

"The Cross Sword Alliance has retreated into the Red River Valley."

"Before retreating, they encountered several attacks from alchemical puppets, but fortunately they were all blocked."

"Nobles near the direction of Lehman City."

"All chose to abandon their territory and flee into the mountains and forests."

"From time to time, they will rush out and attack the orcs' legions."

"The orcs are very annoyed by this."

"Elite teams have been sent to encircle and suppress it, but the results are minimal at present."

Hearing the latter news, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up.

"Can we contact them?"

"We can provide intelligence support."

"Lead them deep into the orcs' territory and attack their cities."

"You can try it!"

Fang Yuan looked at Asis.

"I'll leave this matter to you."

"Qingfeng, help him."

“Mainly messaging through Blaney.”

"As you command, Your Excellency."

Then Fang Yuan asked again.

"Send the order to Guderian."

"Let him assist Assis in completing this plan."

"No need to return after that."

"You can follow Assis and the others and go deep into the territory of the Orc Kingdom."

"Look for opportunities to lead these nobles to attack the orcs' rear."

"Remember, fight more orc nobles."

"Stop fighting the beast god's army."

"As you command!"

After this order is issued.

Christian asked confused.

"Your Excellency."

"Then we won't have any blocking force in front of us."

"Once the orc army comes to attack."

“Our city is bearing the brunt of this.”

Fang Yuan looked towards the city on the north bank.

"The purpose of building it here is to be used in actual combat."

"As for exposure!"

"Impossible."

"As long as we use normal human soldiers, we won't be exposed."

"Command the forest giant to retreat."

"Hide in the swamp territory."

"Send someone else to tell the lord of Rainbow Land."

"Tell them all the information we have."

"Let them know that the orcs will not let them go."

"Just say I need their support."

"More or less then."

"The Rainbow Land will send troops."

"What we want is not support, but the use of the Rainbow Land to prove that we are indigenous."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Just when Fang Yuan kept giving orders.

at this time.

The vanguard of the Carlo family has arrived at Lehman City.

this city.

It was captured by the second son of a southeastern duke noble.

The favored second son rebuilt Lehman City with a large amount of gold coins.

Originally, I wanted to rely on this place to accomplish great things.

But before it even started, it suffered a disastrous defeat.

He took his own legion and left Lehman City in despair.

This new fortress fell into the hands of old Carlo.

"Humanity's city-building technology is really high."

Looking at the fortress in front of him, old Carlo seemed to have completely forgotten the death of his son.

Even a little lucky that the city was lost.

The defensive strength after reconstruction is far greater than before.

"Your Mightiness."

"This is the latest intelligence."

The soldier handed over the news.

It shows three days.

All the castles along the way have been annihilated.

The road to Tire City was completely opened.

"finally!"

"My legions can reach Tire City again."

"But this time."

"I will never let what happened last time happen."

Old Carlo turned around sharply.

He looked at his grandson.

"Lehman City belongs to our Carlo family."

"Now, I appoint you as the acting patriarch."

"Lead the main force of five thousand families and garrison here."

"This is a fortress, a legion of five thousand."

"It's enough to block any attack."

Little Carlo clasped his fists.

"Grandpa, please don't worry, I will protect this city."

Old Carlo nodded.

He drew out the long sword from his waist.

"Send the order!"

"The whole army advances."

"Target, Tire City."

This time.

The forwards of the Carlo family returned to Tire City almost without losing any blood.

And at the same time.

Behind the Carlo family.

There are 500,000 troops of the nobles of the Beastman Kingdom, and 80,000 troops of the Temple of the Beast God.

And within the temple army.

A piece of information came from various alchemists.

"The Cross Sword Alliance withdraws and enters the Red River Valley."

"The nobles from the northwest gave up their territories and hid in the mountains."

"The only thing is that the nobles in the southwest are still clinging to their territory."

"Judging from our previous fight with Fang Yuan."

"I think Fang Yuan should be in the Red River Valley. He is too cautious."

"Not necessarily, he prefers adventure."

"Those nobles in the mountains and forests must have traces of Fang Yuan."

For a while, everyone was arguing.

At this time, someone looked at the Holy Son who commanded the legion.

"Your Mightiness."

"what you think?"

The Holy Son looked at the information in his hand.

"I think every one of them is possible."

"This time we brought 80,000 people."

"Then try one by one."

"Let's start with the Red River Valley."

"As for the other two directions."

"Those who got into the forest in Lehman City, tell the alchemist."

"Send puppets to focus on the attack."

"For the nobles of the southwest."

"The news here shows that the two alchemists who went there died in battle."

"Come here, take my letter and give it to old Carlo."

"Just say we need a favor from him."

"Find the missing alchemist"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

On the march to the city of Tire.

"Help~"

Old Carlo was very disgusted with the request of the Beast Divine Son.

But thinking about the previous help, at the same time, if someone in my family is in danger in the future.

I'm afraid I'll need help from the other party.

After thinking for a while.

Old Carlo found his personal guard captain.

"Lucas."

"Take a thousand elite soldiers to the southwest."

"Find the alchemist, alive or dead."

"Yes, sir!"

Moulin Rouge Territory.

Lilith hurriedly found Fang Yuan.

"Sir, sir."

"Just dissected two alchemists."

"I have a major discovery!!!" (End of this chapter)
