Chapter 202: Earthshaking
In the wilderness where shouts and screams were everywhere, Canis fought bloody battles and delayed several monsters alone.
He dodged the spear piercing as fast as the wind and swung his sword to cut off the wolf claws that rushed over. At the moment when the enemy's blood dyed the wolf-patterned armor red, he approached the monster sideways, stomped his steel boots on the ground, and jumped high.
He clenched his long sword and slashed it with a sharp blade! With a sound of "puff", the tendons and bones were broken.
The young master of the Wolf family cut the wolf in front of him in half, and the broken body spurted blood and rolled.
Looking at more than one monster as powerful as a knight of military honor, being killed in a few rounds by his hands, and the body rolling on the mud, struggling to crawl with the remaining body, Canis felt more refreshed than ever before.
While experiencing the tyrannical power given to him by the witchcraft, he couldn't help complaining that if he had such an amazing increase in strength and agility last time, he would not have been too late to react to the unexpected turn and attack of the metal giant.
After all, the martial arts learned since childhood and the human opponents he faced never mentioned that the upper body could rotate a full circle.
After suffering a heavy spinning blow from the iron giant and dying in such a shameful manner, Canis vowed never to be careless again.
Hearing the slash coming from behind, he turned around quickly and held the sword horizontally to block the attack.
However, another dangerous evil demon had rushed in front of him and took the opportunity to stab the young master of the Wolf family with his spear.
Before Canis could respond, a steel sword flying in the air suddenly pierced through the weird bald head of the wolf man.
Seeing that Corvis's flying sword twisted the enemy's head with a rotation, Caniston, who was surrounded by heavy siege, felt the pressure reduced.
He stepped back and drew his sword, stabbing into the wolf body of the enemy in front of him, twisting the sword over his back, cutting the enemy's flank while avoiding the slash of the third enemy on the other side.
As soon as he stood firm, the young master of the Wolf family roared, picked up the body of the werewolf that he had cut open on his shoulder, and smashed it directly at the enemy, knocking the monster that tried to backstab him to the ground.
Without making a reckless pursuit and being surrounded again, Canis shook off the broken meat and pus on his sword, jumped back a few times, and retreated to the side of Corvis.
"Is it done? Boy! Is that guy dead or alive?"
Glancing at the young knight who destroyed the witchcraft altar and was dragging the trapped person off the ledge, Canis turned his head and continued to raise his sword towards the increasingly surrounding werewolves, taking a stance.
"He's still alive." Corvis threw the unconscious Aolade to the grass beside him, and then recalled the bloody flying sword, and was about to continue to resist the evil spirits in front of him with Canis.
Suddenly, sensing the rapid fading of the majestic magic flow in the environment, Corvis looked up at the sky with enlightenment.
The sun shone down along the pore that dissipated like a burning hole.
The half-demon who had surrounded the two of them paused in laughter, and the strange human face full of "healthy" smiles showed dissatisfaction and mania.
With a shriek, the twisted half-wolves rushed towards Corvis and the others, trying to kill them with the last time.
But as soon as they were slightly exposed to the light of the scorching sun, the twisted monsters seemed to suddenly lose their vitality, and their huge bodies fell down in vain despite the inertia of the momentum.
And the half-human, half-wolf body that was fused together seemed to melt and dissolve, and blood gushed out from the joints, restoring it to two corpses.
Corvis raised his eyebrows, took a few steps back, and looked at the half-human corpse that rolled to his feet.
The strange smile on the face of the East Border Knight with his hair falling off had disappeared, and his originally smooth skin quickly lost its shiny and lubricated luster.
Suddenly, he heard gusts of wind coming from above his head, and the boy looked up and saw the death claws swooping down.
Leon raised his magic gun. He wanted to support Corvis, but when he saw the stitched monsters die one after another on the spot, he felt relieved.
Carrying the long sword, Canis came forward to discuss with a lingering feeling: "Hey, I say, next time you ask me to help, how about giving me magic support like this?"
He was somewhat addicted to the feeling of power beyond his life.
"Don't you hate witchcraft? Besides, do you think my magic power is endless? There are few people this time and the environment is special. Let's see the situation later."
Feeling that the magic power was becoming more and more exhausted, Leon quickly reached out to him and canceled the magic power supply of the two Neti cards.
The effect of the boiling heart disappeared on everyone. Before the young master of the Wolf family had time to complain more, he turned into light mist and flew back to Leon's hand to condense into a card.
Putting away the two Neti cards, turning over and jumping off the griffin's back, Leon came to Corvis to check on his companions.
After confirming that the little brother's armor was damaged, but he was not seriously injured, he turned to look at the unconscious Aurad at his feet.
"Aurad won't have hidden dangers, right? Will there be a demon that has taken the opportunity to lurk in his body?" Leon asked Laura doubtfully.
".Don't worry, they can't break through the reality curtain so easily. What the succubus wants to do is to remotely control this person's mind in the spirit-like field, go to the outside world to hold a ceremony, and open up a rift from the inside of the world that allows it to appear.
Now that you have driven it back to the spirit world, the influence of the demon spell will not work after it is separated from the caster, and for this person it is equivalent to having a nightmare, or a beautiful dream, that's all."
After hearing this, Leon put aside his worries.
He looked at the headless wolf corpses and the human corpses without lower bodies around him, and couldn't help sympathizing with these warriors who died in twisted postures. Fortunately, they were not completely devoured like Amon. According to Laura, the souls that have not been completely eroded and polluted can at least fall into the Dead Sea for now.
Silently waiting for the spirit-like field to dissipate, seeing the underworld filter around him completely faded, Leon saw the colors and scenery of reality in the distance. Looking around, he didn't know where his feet would be after returning to reality.
He carried Aurad on the ground and took Corvis back to the sky on the griffin to find the place where he entered the spirit-like field.
The scale of this cursed land was not large. After just a slight hover, Leon found the field camp where a large group of dire wolf cavalry was temporarily stationed.
On the high hill, the East Territory knights who had been waiting in rotation naturally saw the griffin in the sky.
Seeing that someone really returned from the mysterious disappearance phenomenon, they cheered and quickly sent people back to the camp to report.
Leon let the Death Claw flap its wings and land on the high hill. After a greeting, he bent down and threw the Duke's son on his shoulder to the panicked Roman leader knight below.
"It's not a big deal. Take him back and take good care of him. He should wake up in a while."
After saying that, Leon reminded: "But other people who encounter danger in the cursed land are not so lucky. Send people to search the wilderness to the west. The bodies of the dead will be found not far from here."
Hearing that their comrades of many years were buried in the cursed land inexplicably, several Roman knights sighed heavily.
"How long have I been away? Is Her Highness Ines still there?" Leon continued to ask.
"My lord, you disappeared for three days. Her Highness's army has set out two days ago." A Dire Wolf Knight replied.
Having known the cursed land, Leon was not too surprised.
But since Ines had already led the army away, he was too lazy to stay.
Anyway, the task entrusted to him was completed, and the princess would definitely not break her promise of eternal ice and molten gold.
"I'm leaving. Remember to tell your lord who saved his life." Leon left a sentence, looking forward to the expression of the arrogant duke's son after waking up, and immediately ordered the death claw to take off and go home.
The knights of the Roman territory who could not stop him had no time to thank him, and could only watch the griffin lord fly away in a hurry.
The wolf riders later sent people to find the bodies of their comrades, and they were shocked by their strange deaths.
However, compared with these Roman knights who died at the hands of the devil, the land of the Kingdom of Cantadar, at this moment, can be seen everywhere with cruel scenes that are thousands of times more bloody than this.
Hundreds of kilometers away, southeast of the town of Rutansan
The capital of Cantadar has long been in a tense and confused atmosphere from top to bottom. Countless nobles who feel the danger of overthrow are afraid that they cannot escape from the right and wrong place under their feet.
In the past few months, Duke Abel suddenly returned to the country from the front line of the attack on Serian and led a large army to knock on the pass.
If the defenders guarding the Usato Mountain City had not received the "secret report" earlier and refused to open the pass gate without seeing the king and the general, I am afraid that Abel's army would have already entered the pass and surrounded the royal city.
Outside the Usato Mountain City, Duke Aberle besieged the mountain pass while taking a detour to attack the city and conquer the land. His posture of forcing the capital to advance to the capital was obvious, even if it meant bloodshed.
The capital's capital was unprepared, and the defense was empty due to the recruitment of soldiers for the previous expedition. After repeated defeats, it was unable to stop the army from advancing to the capital.
In the solemn atmosphere of the palace, Prince Kaso of Kantadar clenched his fingers and paced anxiously in front of the map.
He couldn't understand that his father held great power, and his three leading generals and the nobles of the capital were loyal to the king, like an iron plate.
How could it be so easy for Duke Aberle to take away the military power and his life and death were unknown?
It was ridiculous! Unbelievable!
How did his uncle do it?
Did all the confidants and confidants of his father who controlled the army die overnight?
In his anger, Casso heard the sound of the door opening, and the young prince immediately looked at the old palace minister who came in.
"Did Adak County reply?"
Upon hearing this, the palace minister's old face with white hair and beard showed regret, and he could only shake his head at the prince.
"What about Wadkan County? Novgri? Tudaga?" Casso asked repeatedly in disbelief.
The palace minister sighed helplessly: "Your Highness, most of the nobles in the counties of the king's territory have already followed His Majesty to the east. From the current situation, it seems that they have either turned to Lord Aberle or have been purged.
Not to mention that the surrounding counties can still gather a few soldiers at present, even if the families that control the counties can still recruit soldiers, I am afraid they will not easily choose between you and Lord Aberle at this time."
"The king's capital is in such a crisis, and none of the counties in the king's territory sent troops to support!"
The furious Kaso drew out his long sword and chopped at the tables and chairs on the side. With a loud bang, the huge force chopped the luxurious furnishings into pieces.
"Traitors! They are all traitors who are traitors! Despite the many years of kindness from my father, the royal family has never treated each family unfairly, but they treat me like this in times of crisis! If I ascend to the throne, I will..."
After gritting his teeth and roaring to the end, Kaso barely stopped talking.
Putting the tightly clenched sword back into the sheath, the crown prince regained his sanity with difficulty and sat back in his chair with dejection.
He found it hard to accept that his family's thriving royal power, which was still the scene of the leader of Kantadar half a year ago, was now like a mirror in the water, facing a desperate situation.
"What about the Falcon family? Did the western lords also not respond?"
"Earl Falcon sent an envoy, but distant water cannot quench the thirst. Orland invaded from the south, and the southwestern lords were sending troops to the north to resist the invading troops. They said they were unable to deal with an invasion and a civil war at the same time.
Count Faircamp said that His Highness is also welcome to move to the "Western Port" to temporarily avoid trouble. When the situation stabilizes and the West is freed up, your lords are willing to follow you and launch an attack on the usurper Duke of Arborough. "
"Haha, what a good confession."
Prince Kasuo laughed angrily, raised his hand to cover his forehead and said solemnly: "If I lose the land of Gyeonggi, will that old guy Falcon help me reset it? I'm afraid he wants to wait for Abel to sit firmly in the royal city. , so that I can sell my head at the same price as 'Your Majesty Abel'."
The old palace minister tugged at his beard and felt silent in his heart.
The situation was as cruel as the crown prince had guessed.
The whereabouts of His Majesty and the commanders who originally led the armies were unknown, and Duke Abel pulled back the Eastern Expedition army that Kantadar had assembled with almost all the strength of the country.
The huge army composed of the main force of Kantadar and the mercenaries of Uriya tribes had a terrifying front of more than 100,000 soldiers.
Even if the Kingdom of Orland stops its attack at this moment, the princes in the west, led by the Falcon family, will never be able to seek justice for Prince Kasuo who suddenly lost power in the face of the terrifying military power that Abel currently controls.
Having said that, the old palace minister who should be persuaded still wanted to persuade: "Your Highness, there are less than two thousand palace guards in the royal capital who can fight. In such a short period of time, the thousands of rabble I recruited for you will not be able to face Abo Lord Le's brave army may collapse at the first touch.
Although the capital city is dangerous, the manticores and barbarian giants, and even the city-breaking weapons from distant empires, are all on the expeditionary army's side. The high walls of Rolannar cannot stop them. The citizens and guards in the royal city can't stop them. , we have no chance of winning.”
As he spoke, the old and calm heart of the palace minister also became a little sad. Even though he was used to ups and downs, he never thought that the royal family he served would suddenly encounter such a huge change. Even if he wanted to save Tianqing, he could not. In fact, there is no way to save the day.
"What's more, even if His Highness has the blessing of the gods and blocks Lord Abel's siege, the royal city still has no reinforcements to look forward to.
The Duke does not need to attack. He only needs to lock us in the pass, and the army can crush the territories and wait for the city to turn into a dead place. "
He continued to persuade: "Why don't you be trapped and die in the royal city now? You can flee to the south with the royal bloodline to save your life and try to make a comeback."
Listening to the loyal palace minister's earnest advice, Ka Suo closed his eyes and fell into despair.
The best way to the south is to escape to Uriah, but those nomads who only care about money will definitely be happy to sacrifice him to Abel for reward.
The west side is in dire straits, and the lost power is in their hands, just a bargaining chip to be slaughtered.
The east side has almost fallen into Abel's control.
Now besides the central counties around Gyeonggi, where else can he go? What's the point of going out and surviving?
Is it possible that we can still go north?
Count Mamor in the northeast has been out of contact for a long time, and there are now Orlander armies all over the north.
A thunderbolt passed through Ka Suo's heart.
"Olanders. Yes, Olanders! Haha, yes, there are them too! Hahahahahahaha"
As if grasping a life-saving straw, Ka Suo suddenly laughed horribly, leaning forward and backward with laughter.
That crazy laugh made the hair on the old palace minister's back run wild.
Kasuo suddenly stopped laughing and stared at the palace minister with cold eyes: "Zoltan, I will protect my father's crown at all costs, are you willing to help me?"
"I have naturally entrusted your life to His Majesty for a long time. Now I am only at His Majesty's command." The palace minister endured doubts and lowered his head to show his loyalty.
Ka Suo nodded and immediately ordered: "Okay, I will be crowned king in the royal city soon. In addition, I will call a few dead soldiers immediately. I have a personal secret message to deliver to the north."
".north?"
"Yes, North, I want to ask the old dragon in Orland if he can bear the surrender of a king." Castle looked coldly at the dome in the hall that depicts the history of the kingdom.
Since you are so unfaithful and unjust.
Then don't blame me for smashing this dining table myself and leaving nothing for you rebels.
Chapter 123: Harmony suffered miserably, and I lost a lot of interesting chapter reviews. Wow, I’m not happy.
