Lord of War

The Miracle Calendar April 1, 1882, on this seemingly ordinary day, something happened that shocked the entire Miracle Continent.

The Peace Council, destroyed.

When the news came out, no one or any organization dared to believe it except for a few people who already knew the inside story. In the eyes of almost everyone, this news is a prank, a joke, and it is still a very bad joke.

The Peace Council has been in development for tens of thousands of years. Since the end of the Age of Ashes, it has been working hard to make the entire Miracle Continent peaceful and stable. Maybe many people don't know, but some people are very clear in their hearts. Without the contribution of the Peace Council, the most chaotic chaotic era after the Age of Ashes may last for thousands of years.

It can be said that although the Peace Council is an organization composed of a group of lunatics, it has also made indelible contributions—he has brought the end of the chaotic era thousands of years earlier. However, it is precisely because of this great contribution that the Peace Council has developed a crazy and domineering organizational style, thinking that they are the real saviors.

At this point, no one can tell whether to be grateful or to resent the Peace Council.

But the only thing that can be determined is that those relatively powerful countries will never like the peace parliament, while those relatively small countries like the peace parliament very much.

The reason is simple.

For those relatively powerful kingdoms and empires, the peace parliament that strives to stabilize its structure is simply a roadblock that hinders its development and progress; but for those small countries, the peace parliament can guarantee their continued survival and stability. cornerstone of development.

But no matter whether it is for those big countries or those small countries, no one believes that the Peace Council has just been destroyed.

In particular, the news came from Deaththorn.

Deaththorn wiped out the Peace Council?

Hahaha, this is probably the funniest joke since the creation of Miracle Continent.

Most people will go to the tavern to buy wine and get drunk after the daily work is over.

But today, many people who have nothing to worry about have started to gather in taverns to drink and have fun since noon. Share the funniest joke they've heard from this Genesis joke today.

A middle-aged man with a full beard is talking loudly in the tavern. He tells the story of when he was an adventurer in an eloquent voice, and occasionally has exaggerated body movements. But not everyone is happy to see his exaggerated body movements, because they appear with his movements. The big wine glass in his hand would always spill some wine, splashing on other people indiscriminately.

"Hey, old Kujier, you're bragging again." Someone laughed and couldn't tell whether it was malicious or kind.

"What bragging. What I said is the truth!" The bearded man's face flushed red, and he didn't know whether he was drunk or angry, "How can you slander me!"

"What slander?" Someone laughed again, and the voice was obviously not the one who was yelling at just now, "I just had a drink with the head of the heroic charge a few days ago, and I heard what he said with my own ears. You are not like what you said If you were injured and retired from the regiment, you can only fool others here. Old man who doesn’t know what’s going on with you.”

The bearded man's face turned redder, this time it should be sure that it was flushed,

Because the blue veins on the forehead are emerging. His face was also extremely grim: "I was shot by an arrow in the knee, why can't it be regarded as an injury? I couldn't walk at that time, why can't it be considered an injury and quit the regiment? I am a ranger, and I couldn't walk when I was shot in the knee. What else can I do!"

Immediately afterwards, there was another burst of incomprehensible words.

What "witnessed the amazing swordsmanship of a young man named Sean", what "had a good drink at the Wine and Sword Tavern", what "also had a good talk with Eli Kate of Evernight", what "had given A man named Ruby led the way" and other words caused everyone present to burst into laughter again. No one would take old Kujier's words to heart, as if he was bragging again, the whole tavern was soon filled with a cheerful atmosphere, even more festive than usual at nightfall.

"I... I also know a big news!" The bearded man yelled, "The Peace Council was wiped out by Deaththorn!"

"Hahaha!"

The laughter in the tavern became even louder, this time regardless of whether it was anyone who participated in the booing of old Kujir just now. All laughed. And the vast majority of people looked at Old Kujir with sympathy in their eyes. Many people who saw Old Kujir for the first time shook their heads, obviously having a more intuitive impression of him: Not reliable.

"Old Kujir, do you think we are fools?" Someone laughed, "What is the dead thorn? We don't know, but such a powerful organization as the Peace Council will be wiped out? Hahaha, old Kujir Jill, you are blowing too much."

"Hahaha, old Kujir is treating us all as fools." Someone laughed again, "Is today a fool's day?"

"Happy April Fool's Day!" Someone raised his glass and shouted, but at least a third of the glass of ale was spilled.

"Happy April Fool's Day!" Soon, a large crowd began to respond.

The people in the tavern began to rejoice and laugh. Many people's brains had already been paralyzed by alcohol, and they couldn't even think normally. They just yelled words like "Happy April Fool's Day", and then drank wine, ate meat, and occasionally said a few words, or they were so confused that others could not understand them at all, or they were confused at the beginning. A story that has completely blown the cowhide.

Soon, the saying of April Fool's Day spread from the tavern and began to spread throughout the city.

Many people began to play some not-so-bad jokes with each other, and even noble women liked this little game spread from the common people they had always looked down upon. Moreover, how many people can be deceived and what kind of panic can be caused is the greatest victory.

However, compared to the commoners who were drinking and having fun, and some nobles who were not in contact with them enough, those big shots who were really qualified to know the inside story were not so relaxed.

In front of many people, there is a more detailed intelligence document.

Perhaps the level of detail of this intelligence document varies, but at least it can better prove that this is not some April Fool's Day joke, but that the Peace Council was officially destroyed two days ago. The one who joined forces to completely eradicate the entire Peace Council was the Void Principality, which united the three forces of Deaththorn and the Chinas Empire. Among them, the war between the Void Principality and the Fascist Kingdom was the trigger for this incident.

In this plotting war. The base camp of the Peace Council was directly captured by Deaththorn. Four of the seven peace saints in the Libra Council died and two were seriously injured. Only one escaped, but the escaped man was also in a critically injured state. Obviously it won't last long. As for the eight envoys of peace who are still active on the Miracle Continent, they were all attacked and killed at the same time, and the biggest loss was the Tianping Guard Group sent to the Fascist Kingdom.

The four peace envoys and twenty gold-cloaked executive officers all fell.

This intelligence document only contains a few short lines of news about the collapse of the Peace Council, but the content revealed inside is definitely enough to be regarded as shocking.

no matter who. It is impossible to ignore the heavy weight on this intelligence document.

Occupying an extremely important position on the Miracle Continent, and having been rampant for tens of thousands of years, the Peace Council was destroyed just like that?

The legendary genius who was placed with high hopes by the entire Peace Council, and even rumored to be one of the seven seats in the Libra, Christina F. Fisher, just died in the Void Grand Duke, Sean Kang. Nali's hand?

Countless people feel unbelievable.

Even more people hope that this is really a joke, an April Fool's joke.

But the big shots who are qualified to look through these intelligence documents know—at least their reason clearly tells them. It's really not a joke.

At least, countless people remember a name today.

Sean Connery, the future king of the Void Empire.

Yes, at this moment, no matter those organizations that are active on the mainland, or those kingdoms and principalities on the mainland, they all know clearly that it is a matter of time before the Principality of the Void is upgraded to an empire, and no one in the southern continent can anymore Block their steps. Because the two empires that are truly qualified and capable of preventing the Void Principality from upgrading to an empire have fallen into different quagmires of war.

Millennium Covenant Empire. At this moment, they are confronting the army of undead from the plane of bones. Although they have the support of many church knights, the battle situation is not as smooth as expected, because there are too many people who fish in troubled waters and do not obey orders. Even the commander of the Millennium Covenant, one of the great empires, can't order these church knights, otherwise it would be impossible to be dragged into the quagmire of war.

Especially as the war lasted longer and the number of deaths increased significantly, this actually strengthened the army of the undead.

As for another empire: the Chinas Empire, it has officially declared war on the Fascist kingdom, and thereafter it did not wait for the official order time to end. Just send troops directly——During the time when the Peace Council still existed, any country had to declare war at least one month in advance to give the enemy country sufficient preparation time, at least to prevent the people from dying in the war.

But now, after the Peace Council was completely and completely destroyed by Deaththorn, the Chinas Empire sent troops directly after issuing a war declaration, without giving the Fascist Kingdom any time to prepare. Of course, it would not give the other party any chance to find diplomatic means, so in just one day, the Chinese army conquered three fortresses on the border of the Fascist Kingdom one after another, taking down a territory close to that of a standard principality.

The enmity between the Chinese Empire and the Fascist Kingdom has a long history, but no one knows exactly what caused it. The only thing we can know is that when the hatred was at its peak, the Chinas Empire directly launched an invasion war against the fascist kingdom. Take a hand.

Therefore, now that the Peace Council has been destroyed, the Chinese Empire finally has no worries—the most important thing is that all the forces sent by the Peace Council to the Fascist Kingdom have all fallen. This also means that the fascist kingdom no longer has a high-end power that can be compared with the Chinas Empire. It may be able to fight the Chinas Empire in terms of military strength, but once the superpowers intervene in the battlefield, there will be no suspense.

This is the real war.

So at this moment, neither the Millennium Covenant Empire nor the Chinas Empire will ever seek trouble with the Duchy of the Void, let alone prevent him from being upgraded to an empire. Of course, it goes without saying that in the intelligence documents of many people, there is also the important information that the Void Principality took the lead to cooperate with Deaththorn and the Chinese Empire to destroy the Peace Council. A great favor from the Void Principality.

Perhaps, in a short time, the Void Principality will be called the Void Empire.

It's just that the only thing that still makes people wonder is how the Duchy of the Void will become an empire, whether it will replace one of the old seven empires, or become the eighth empire.

If it is the former, then according to the general law of the nobility, at least half of the empires—that is, the approval of the four empires must be obtained before they can become the eighth empire. On the contrary, the seats of the Seven Great Empires are still reserved, but the Duchy of the Void will definitely compete with the Poludo Empire or the Xitan Empire for this seat.

In the eyes of many people, the Void Principality will definitely take the latter route, and will definitely pick the Boludo Empire, because this empire is currently the weakest, and the possibility of replacing it is the greatest. It's just that in this way, the Principality of the Void will have to establish a lot of enemies-the big kingdoms aiming at the position of the turbulent Boludo Empire, but there are not many at all, at least they are currently qualified to compete for the seat of this empire There are more than ten super-class kingdoms in China.

But no matter what, the name Sean Connery is destined to truly resound through the entire Miracle Continent at this moment.

Because even if countless people are unwilling to admit it, the Peace Council that has been active on the Miracle Continent since the end of the Age of Ashes has indeed led the development of the entire Miracle Continent, and it can be regarded as a product of an era. And with the destruction of the Peace Council, this also represents the end of the old era and the advent of a new era - the kings of those great empires and kingdoms will thank Sean, because he brought them more hope; And the kings of those small kingdoms and small principalities will hate Xiao En, because what he brings to them is not hope, but deep despair.

Sean Connery, he ended an old era and started a new one.

This is a name destined to be recorded in history.

It is also a name destined to shock the world.

ps: Happy April Fool's Day! Originally this chapter, I wanted to start another volume, but after thinking about it, forget it...
