Chapter 68 68 Reinforcements

Hook was stunned when he heard Rumback continue to say: "The other soldier has a A fast-firing hand cannon that can attack beyond the range of a bow and arrow... Our soldiers can't get close to the opponent's line, and any counterattack is bring about one's own destruction!"

"It's even worse. The thing is, the other party has a weapon that can fire quickly, which can quickly shoot out countless small 'cannonballs', knocking all our soldiers to the ground!" The more he talked, the more mysterious the content had made Hook's eyes widen.

Are you telling fantasy stories? General Zorn was eager to refute Prince Arrant Lumbach, who was already close to gibberish. But he suppressed this impulse, because he knew that the sane Prince in front of him was definitely not crazy.

If it's not that the prince is crazy, it's that there is some truth to what he says. Zon, who has seen the giant dragon of the Holy Demon Emperor, is now less sensitive to strange things. He felt that the other party might really have such a weapon, which also showed that the rapid fall of Wallavor, guarded by Franky, was not an accidental event.

"Those soldiers of Alanhill can do magic! They can kill magic! It must be so!" Lumbach finally found a theoretical basis for his analysis and said, "They gave their souls to The devil! In exchange for these terrifying magic!"

Hearing him say this, Zon suddenly felt that Lumbach's words seemed to have some truth. If these weapons were related to magic, it would be very easy to explain: after all, what the Holy Demon Emperor has come up with, no matter how profound mystery is, is it as it should be by rights?

"Your Majesty! Could it be that this matter is caused by the Holy Demon Emperor?" Zon stood on Lumbark's side at this time, and opened his mouth to find some reasons for his "defeat" come out.

Anyway, if Your Majesty is really to blame and push everything to the Holy Demon Emperor, which cannot afford to offend, it will be much better than taking the blame on yourself. Thinking of this, Zorn seems to feel that the Prince Rumback around him is really a person with innate talent in terms of shirk responsibility.

As the monarch of a mortal empire, Arrant Hooker had no idea for a while when he heard that his ministers brought these matters to magic. So the whole hall fell into a terrifying silence, which was suffocating.

The two officers who were kneeling on the ground to report the letter did not even dare to express their anger at this time, because they had no right to participate in the decision-making at this level. If given the choice, they would prefer to leave immediately.

"I think...is it..." After a long while, Zon finally broke the silence in the hall and suggested: "Would you like to contact the Holy Demon Emperor country...this is beyond our response? Ability..."

"But! If Alanhill is backed by the Holy Demon Emperor, we will do it, not..." After thinking for so long, Hu Ke also thought a lot, and asked the person in front of him. These ministers said.

"Your Majesty, I think...it's not necessary to think about this now!" Lumbach said at this time: "The Holy Demon Emperor is unlikely to support Alanhill, after all, their tradition is to stand On the side of the weak."

The Holy Demon Emperor has been obstructing the unification of the Mortal World for so many years, so it often interferes in the wars between the mortal empires and chooses the inferior camp— -Those countries that had the hope of unifying the Mortal World were without exception destroyed by the Holy Demon Emperor.

"So, Alanhill, who has advanced weapons, is definitely not a weapon provided by the Holy Demon Emperor! They should have just obtained some magical weapons of the Holy Demon Emperor from some channels!" Zon also Realized that the rise of Alanhill did not match the consistent style of the Holy Demon Emperor.

Although the Holy Demon Emperor has been suppressing the unification of the mortal empire for a long time, it has never increased the strength of the mortal empire. Not to mention advanced weapons of war, it is just some magical products for daily life, and the mortal empire is still rarely seen.

Because of this, whether Rumbach or Zon, they all believed that Alanhill's technology did not come from the Holy Demon Emperor country - even if Alanhill offered more prices, the Holy Demon Emperor country Nor will they be given magic items to help them. The style of the Holy Demon Emperor is that it would rather directly send troops to fight, which is more direct and convenient, without worrying about the rise of the Mortal World and then the magical item.

Hu Ke was sighed in relief, in his opinion, if it wasn't for the support of the Holy Demon Emperor, then everything would be fine. As long as the Holy Demon Emperor is still on the side of the Arrant Empire, Alanhill has nothing to fear.

"Since that's the case! Then I will use the contact crystal of Wangcheng to send an urgent message and let the Holy Demon Emperor send reinforcements!" Through a series of analysis, I guessed that the Holy Demon Emperor did not stand there.

On Alanhill's side, Hooker also had confidence. He looked at his subordinates and said in a long voice.

Then, on the morning of the second day, a more auspicious time was chosen. Arrant Hook took a shower and changed his clothes, made all preparations, and summoned the ministers to hold a ceremony to summon the Holy Demon Emperor for help. .

Although there is no representative of the Holy Demon Emperor to supervise, this grand ceremony should still be retained. After all, this reminds the Imperial Family who use the Messenger Crystals to keep in mind the humility of being able to bridge the gap between magician and mortal.

In a gloomy great hall, Hook pressed his palm on a dusty crystal. moving.

When his hand pressed on the crystal, a burst of energy suddenly rushed towards the patterns on the stone wall, the patterns seemed to be resurrected, like python intertwined, and finally dimmed down.

After doing all this, Hook seemed to have used up all his strength, sighed, and became a little decadent. He stooped and walked step by step to the exit of this dark great hall, with an indescribable loneliness on his face.

A few months ago, he was still a monarch who dreamed of revitalizing the Arrant Empire. Now he is like a clown who has to forget his lofty sentiments and high aspirations, and once again bow down to the power of Magic Empire under.

It's fate...with a sigh of a similar meaning in my heart, involuntarily narrowing his eyes in the sun, Arrant Hook once again stood in front of his minister.

"The contact signal has been sent, and the reinforcements from the Holy Demon Emperor will arrive soon... everyone... remember the shame of today!" He put his hands behind his back and walked down the steps step by step. Coldly said to every minister who passed by.

Clark lowered his head even further. The fall of Naru City was directly related to him. But the war isn't over, and accountability hasn't begun, so he hasn't faced the pressure yet.

Zon's face is also uncomfortable. After all, his strategy has completely failed this year, not to mention the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops, and a large area of territory, so his situation is no better than the opposite. How good is Prime Minister Clark.

The Prince of Imperial Uncle, Arrant Rumbach, who stood beside Zorn, also looked disappointed. Compared to Zon who lost to Saint Demon Emperor, he seemed to lose face even more to Alanhill.

"Yes!" After being stunned for a short time, everyone lowered their heads and replied to Hu Ke, "I will keep in mind today's lesson!"

"Wait. The reinforcements are already on their way! No one can resist the will of the Holy Demon Emperor! Alanhill is doomed to self-destruction! The Arrant Empire will definitely win! It will!" He squeezed his fists, already forgetting his original The aspiring emperor Your Majesty, looking at the blue sky in the west, cried in the heart.

In a magnificent castle on the eastern plain of the Holy Demon Emperor, an apprentice magician folded his hands on his abdomen and paced to a hall of gold and jade in glorious splendor. Standing on the red carpet in the center of the hall, he respectfully reported to the first person: "General Morse...Arrant's SOS crystal lit up..."

"Got it." With a wave of his hand, General Moss, who was sitting in the subordinate position, said that he already knew about this matter, and the apprentice immediately nodded and left, without any intention of staying in the hall.

"It's only been a few days! The emperor of the Arrant Empire has sent out a signal for help. These rotten empires and these useless monarchs can't make people worry?" On the throne, the unceremoniously There was a man sitting, and the clothes on his body were moving slightly like starlight patterns.

He glanced at General Morse and Chief Ildo Knight, and said slowly, "I have to make you two troublesome again... Those mortals are really disgusting. You idiot."

"Don't worry, my lord! We will get things done this time." General Morse stood up from his seat, bowed slightly and said to his immediate superior.

"Go! Destroy the recently famous Alanhill without leaving any trace." A pet climbed up the man's arm, and the man lowered his head and teased the scaly, A pet with sharp claws and a pair of wings.

The little fellow's snake-eyed curiously looked at Moss and Ildo in front of him, as if he was looking at his own lunch. It propped up its teeth and made a slight whistle, and the uncomfortable sound echoed in the hall.

Moss and Ildo knew that the little thing had not been completely tamed, and had no basic awareness of strength or weakness, so they didn't care, they bowed and stepped back until they reached the door of the hall. , then turned around and walked out of the great hall.

"Good child...you haven't grown up yet, you can't eat those mortals, you will have a bad stomach." In the great hall, the man fondly touched the pet's head, and the pet exposed Happy expression: "Alanhill? Very difficult to deal with? Is it more powerful than the dragon...?" 閺
