Chapter 403 The End of the War
Everyone in the Yardley royal family suddenly turned pale. Deep down in their hearts, they still had the final thought of relying on the Redemption Church to counterattack. As long as the strong men of the Redemption Church take action and want to eliminate the Fisher family and the Luomen family, it can be said that It's almost effortless.
But now, the last idea has been completely shattered.
Although the six righteous churches are powerful, to this day, they still abide by the rules set by the gods.
Even though they have begun to interfere a lot behind the scenes, the Zhengshen Church will still not directly intervene in the various battles of the extraordinary nobles in the world without reasonable and legal reasons.
In fact, that's a matter of course.
Because in the long history of ten thousand years, several major orthodox churches have been directly controlled by many gods using "oracles" and other means, as their "hands and feet" in the world of Krad.
Therefore, the vast majority of people who are unwilling to abide by the rules of gods are often eliminated from the beginning, so most of the clergy who remain today have certain beliefs.
Even after the gods completely leave, the belief in some people's hearts will gradually deteriorate sooner or later, but at least as of today, the rules have not truly "collapsed".
The Zhengshen Church is still a force that values face and rules.
Cardinal Albert looked at everyone calmly, condescendingly. No one knew that he actually had a huge concern, which was a certain apocalyptic legend hidden in Siat.
Although he didn't know how that terrifying existence was hidden here and why it was able to violate the laws set by the gods, Cardinal Albert never wanted to challenge him again.
He just said calmly:
"Hurry up, if you don't choose someone to leave, I will leave alone."
In the end, the members of the Yardley royal family were divided into two groups. Most were willing to leave with Cardinal Albert, while a small number expressed their intention to stay.
"Okay, now that you have made your choice, you all can come with me."
Cardinal Albert nodded slightly, then stretched out his seemingly powerless hand and tapped it in front of himself. Everyone saw ripples gradually appearing in the void, and then the space was broken open.
On the other side, the vague shadows of Kernus, the capital of Lorne, the "City of Ten Thousand Domes" and the "City of Stars" are revealed, and even the figures of people walking around in the cathedral can be seen.
That is a "space gate" in the true sense.
Cardinal Albert has the power of blood to control space. He has always been one of the best "free" people on the continent of Siat.
So he just held his other hand, and through invisible power, he instantly brought those who wanted to go with him to Kernas.
They just disappeared.
There were only five members of the Yardley royal family left. They looked at each other. Some of them soon began to regret it, but there was no way to follow them.
The leader of the old man sighed and said with tired eyes:
"Let us wait until the last moment."
——
The rain falls on the ancient and mottled ground in fine and even layers, making a thin and long sound, like light footsteps slowly moving forward in the long river of history.
The sound of horse hooves, footsteps, and vehicles were mixed together in the rain.
Darren, who was riding on a black and red horse, reached out and tugged on his dark coat, staring not far away.
"Finally arrived."
The Northern Kingdom's army finally arrived at the outskirts of the capital of Siat. Many people couldn't help but feel joy deep in their hearts, knowing that this war had finally come to its final moment.
They can completely see the walls of the royal capital!
Under the gentle drizzle, the walls of the royal capital seemed to be covered with a hazy and mysterious veil.
The city wall towers into the clouds and looks even more majestic in the rain. Every stone tells the story of past glory and vicissitudes.
Rainwater flows slowly along the gaps in the city wall, gathering into a trickle, gurgling down the ancient drainage channel, leaving mottled traces, witnessing the royal capital's standing after all the wind and rain.
Outside the city wall is a vast land moistened by drizzle. Fields, villages, and rivers are looming in the rain, like a delicate painting.
An army symbolizing conquest and destruction, like the most discordant element in the painting, suddenly arrived near the royal capital.
Darren remained silent, still staring at the city that symbolized Siyat's supreme power.
It has witnessed the rising and setting of the sun, the passing of spring and the coming of autumn in Siat for more than 170 years. It also carries the dreams and hopes of countless people and has long become an eternal symbol of this country.
Soon, it will be something that belongs to the Fisher family.
An indescribable surge of emotion surged through Darren's heart. It was a mixture of the joy of victory, the desire for power, and the longing for unknown challenges. The extremely complex emotions made his chest seem to be burning with fire, and every time Every drop of blood boils.
"We're finally going to win!"
"Very good!"
"The Yardley royal family in the south will pay a sufficient price!"
Standing on this conquered land, many extraordinary people in the army looked into the distance with light shining in their eyes.
Every inch of Siat has witnessed their bravery and wisdom. Their names will be forever engraved in the history of the country. The sense of achievement comes like a tide, making people feel extremely proud and satisfied.
However, the mood of big men like Darren and Aldridge was not limited to the joy of victory.
They knew that conquest was just the beginning. The real challenge was how to govern this land, how to make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and how to make Siat glow with new vitality.
And in Darren's heart, there was a desire to explore the unknown world. He was eager to move forward, conquer more land, challenge more difficulties, and finally let the name of the Fisher family resound through the sky!
This desire attracted him like a magnet, making him unable to stop and move forward forever.
The barrier had no intention of rising from the beginning, and the city gate was wide open.
Under the capital, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn. Although the drizzle had stopped, there was still an indescribable tension and expectation in the air. The gate of the royal city slowly opened with a heavy creaking sound.
This scene marked the official surrender of the royal city to Darren.
On both sides of the city gate, the defenders who were originally on high alert had laid down their weapons. Their faces were full of helplessness and relief. Their eyes showed both grief for the loss of their homes and worries about their future fate.
Just inside the city gate, an old man in gorgeous clothes walked out slowly. Although his steps were heavy, his eyes revealed an unyielding dignity.
He held the scepter symbolizing royal power and submitted a letter of surrender to Duke Darren Fisher on behalf of the entire royal city.
At this moment, everyone held their breath deeply. The past glory and honor of the Yadley royal family seemed to be condensed in the letter of surrender and became part of the old history.
As the surrender ceremony proceeded, the residents of the Siat capital also walked out of their homes. They bowed their heads in silence, looked up, and felt mixed emotions in their hearts.
Some residents were crying for the loss of their homes, while others were praying for the upcoming peaceful life.
The extraordinary nobles who laid down their weapons also walked out of the city one after another.
Darren looked at the old man calmly. He did not take the surrender letter, but waited silently for the other party to speak.
"..."
The old man of the Yadley royal family, who was in the lead, raised his head, stared at the Duke Darren Fisher who came, and took a deep breath.
He lowered his head, as if he suddenly lost all his dignity and backbone, and finally said the most reluctant words in his heart.
"The Yadley royal family is willing to swear to God, surrender unconditionally, and fully obey all the decisions of Her Majesty Queen Peggy..."
