A strange world

Chapter 562 Section 219. The final attack

The path leading to the palace gardens is paved with a carpet of petals all year round. Elite soldiers with golden armor shining in the sun stood on both sides of the road...

This is the scene leading to the palace before the old royal capital fell.

But now, the road is littered with blood and fire, death and chaos.

The rat men who rushed down from the palace were retreating steadily, and the expeditionary force with high morale rushed up to kill the rat men.

The warriors stood in front, while the musketeers and rangers were responsible for relieving the pressure on them. The mages continued to release spells to purify, reduce fatigue, and heal injuries. The rat men carried dozens of germs.

If placed in the wild, the warriors would at most eliminate some groups of rats. But in a city-state with streets and alleys everywhere, the status of warriors cannot be replaced.

There are no flowerbeds or vegetation, the sculptures have been knocked down, and the murals have been chipped out. The bare palace has no sense of beauty. The expeditionary force seems to be fighting in a lost ruins. When they stepped onto the steps and formally rushed into the palace garden, the ranger was the first to climb onto the roof of the old palace, raised his longbow and roared.

They are similar to cats. They always like to stay in high places where they can see their surroundings to satisfy their sense of security. Therefore, in addition to the elf pantheon, they will also choose to believe in cats and midnight maidens.

At this time, a white and beautiful cat climbed to the top of the palace, and the surrounding rangers retreated one after another.

They respect spiritual cats and believe that they are the messengers of cats and the Midnight Maid, especially at the end of the first millennium of the Saint Laurent calendar when the gods lost contact.

The silly cat came to the edge of the palace and seemed to have trampled the entire royal city under its feet. Even though the ruined city is not beautiful, it still reminds Him of everything in the Kingdom of God...

I will start from the saint and rekindle the divine fire!

"What are you doing standing so high! Be careful of falling!"

The shouts that came with the wind dragged him back to the world. The silly cat lowered his head, and his angry cat eyes reflected Annan who was standing in front of the palace and shouting anxiously.

So annoying!

The expeditionary force that rushed into the palace showed that the rat people had lost their last support. They were driven deep into the palace and killed one by one... just like they did to the city.

After dozens of minutes, the battle ended.

The expeditionary force conquered the palace mountain.

The soldiers discussed with great interest whether it would be more fulfilling to conquer the palace on Mount Montreal... Annan almost wanted to cover his ears.

Annan took Princess Seles to the palace garden. She wanted to witness the loss of the Montreal family with her own eyes.

There are still some ratmen scattered in the corners of the old royal capital, but Annan is too lazy to look for them anymore. They won't stay here anyway.

In fact, the honor of conquering the old royal capital was greater than the actual gain.

They wiped out hundreds of thousands of ratmen, a dozen priests, and one elder... But these losses were nothing to the ratmen, or even to the Stun clan.

The ratmen had been wreaking havoc in the old capital for several months, and everything of any value was gone.

Just like the old saying: The arrogance of the Skaven is that they have no arrows worth anything.

A ranger met a rat-man on the road, took out an arrow and drew his bow to kill it, and the ranger lost money.

Unless the ranger met three ratmen on the road, took out an arrow and drew the bow to kill them, and the arrow continued to shoot through the second ratman and nailed the third ratman, the cost of the arrows would be recovered.

Even Annan is worried about how to recruit ratmen in the future Free City.

Not to mention elves, exquisite skills, appreciation of art, immortality and beauty... no one minds even if it is a vase; dwarves are natural miners and blacksmiths; orcs at least still have strength, a thousand elite human soldiers and A thousand orcs pulled from the tribe duel, the humans will definitely be defeated;

And the Skaven...they are really good at breeding, and they can also spread plague.

At most, they were working as hard laborers and farmers, but in Liberty City they were replaced by skeletons.

“…the traitor and his minions fled south.”

Princess Sails' words brought Annan back from his thoughts. She was talking about the king who betrayed his people. They ran to the southwest. If Annan lets the New Freedom return to Xingyue Bay, there is a high probability that he will see them on the way.

"Are you talking about the Rekaner Kingdom? They have been doing something strange recently." Evelin appeared and disappeared.

"What's wrong?" Princess Seles's lifeless eyes fell on Evelin.

"Hmm... The "Twin Ministers Weekly" said that they suddenly announced that they would resist the rat tide and the demon tide, and accept the old people... Tsk, you want me to tell you what they did earlier?"

As an old citizen of the Ruikaner Kingdom, Evelin represents the thoughts of all the old people.

They also purchased a large amount of food and weapons, and really started to clean up the rat people and demons.

Annan suddenly remembered the Holy Council a few days ago... Is this what they want?

Annan directly exposed the betrayer's lies because he didn't want Princess Sails to still have hope for those bastards: "When I set out, the Holy Council announced that 'all territories recovered by the monarch will belong to them.' I think this is them. purpose. The old system limited the expansion of the kingdom. But now, they can expand in the official name of regaining the old territory..."

In the western part of the northern border, there are several vacancies equivalent to the Kingdom of Rekaner due to rats and demons. As long as they are recovered, the area of ​​​​the Kingdom of Rekaner will suddenly become as huge as the Tatooine Empire.

It sounds unreasonable for a king to give up his country to others and then take it back, but if it were replaced by "selling his own property and buying it back at a lower price", it would be understandable.

And not many people knew about it. Annan, the King of Gold, the King of Bones, and the people around them...at least ordinary people would never know the viciousness of these nobles.

Maybe they will also support the Kingdom of Rekaner in launching a counterattack.

"Evelin, I need you to do a special edition of "Voice of Freedom."" Annan solemnly said to Evelin: "Make all the dirty, betrayal, betrayal, and current purpose of the Rekaner Kingdom public."

"Making trouble for them? I'm the best at it!" Evelin jumped up and down.

"Annan..."

Princess Sails suddenly stopped Annan weakly. She said it would bring disaster upon him and the Free City.

If nothing else, there are at least a few legends who follow the betrayer...such as Annan's metaphorical Red Devil in "Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone".

The high-altitude wind blew on the palace mountain, taking away Annan's impulse.

This time it was no small fight, and his opponent was no longer a sieve like the Mad Dog Archduke. What Annan has to face is a kingdom with great power and unscrupulous means.

"... Prepare the draft first, and I will ask my ancestors when I go back."

Annan still didn't want to give up.

Let the Kingdom of Rekaner continue to develop... Who knows if a few hundred years later, the traitor will become a hero who "was robbed of his country by the rat men and demons, was unwilling to give up, and finally defeated the rat men and demons"?

That's so disgusting...
