Realm of Power

Fatty returned from the waterfall behind the top of the mountain. Along the way were Confederate soldiers in black armor. Patrols came and went, tightly blocking the entrances to each road. Confederate patrols holding spears and shields continued from the top of the mountain to the mountainside. , the entire Temple Mount is like a huge golden tower. There are 4 roads spiraling from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Now they are completely controlled by the army. Not to mention a person, even a fly will be caught and looked at several times.

, are you suspected of absconding?

"Please identify yourself! Sir"

A patrol team saw Fatty. Although his eyes paused on the white thorn flower armor on Fatty's body, they continued to walk towards him. The leader was a thirty-year-old veteran with a stern look on his face. He has sharp characteristics, and he knows that the status of every guard is above that of the squadron leader.

"Imperial Guard No. 634!"

Fatty reached out from his pocket and took out a Guards card with a golden edge and handed it over. In the latest military system promulgated by the empire, all officers above the squadron leader will have a military card. The local flag regiment is brown, which means The color of the earth and navy is blue, which means ocean. The main battle flag is red, which is the color of blood. Only the guard's flag is gold.

The veteran took the golden ID badge, glanced at it in surprise, handed it back to Fatty and asked, "I'm sorry, can I ask what the commander is doing here? Because this is a key area, and as usual, we must pay attention to every one." People approaching! ""I'm just here to judge how many people are here!"

Fatty smiled slightly, raised his head, and pretended to glance at the location of the mountain temple. In the middle of the mountain road, the temple grounds that were originally used to house Statunko were already covered with the entire team. The soldiers of the Imperial Southern Army were ready to attack, and the cold light of their spears flashed like a huge forest of light.

Thousands of soldiers are deployed here, with murderous intent rising to the sky. The powerful military appearance brings a sense of desolation like the autumn wind.

Even in this scorching May, people feel extremely cold from the inside. The intervention of the army has completely controlled the situation at this moment. The so-called theocratic advantage of the temple is completely self-entertainment. joke,

Hongyue's death filled Fatty's heart with grief and anger. If it weren't for Palstina's pleading, Fatty wouldn't mind using the entire temple's top brass to bury Hong Yue. Anyway, there are quite a few of these people who have grievances against the empire. Killing them all must be unjust, but if Killing every other one, there will definitely be someone who slips through the net. The temple on the mountainside was originally a residence arranged by the temple for the convenience of surveillance. It is located on the center line of the holy mountain. It can go up or down, just like a pass. Maybe the temple itself never dreamed of it, which also provided the emperor with an excellent entry point.

In the eyes of soldiers, this terrain requires only a small number of troops to achieve the goal of controlling the overall situation.

Hundreds of Guardsmen gathered after the explosion. From here, they quickly divided into two teams. One team was composed of the most elite 20 squadron leaders, sweeping away the fallen leaves with the autumn wind. Like a tiger, it rushed straight up the mountain where the upper levels of the temple were, and controlled the entire upper level of the temple in the shortest time.

The other team quickly set up a defense line at the waist. The road from the top to the bottom of the mountain was completely blocked. The bottom of the mountain had no way of knowing the situation on the mountain. The guards' quick actions were like a huge knife, connecting the entire holy mountain. Cut off from the waist,

The huge explosion in the temple on the top of the mountain shattered the tranquility of the holy land. In panic, the crowd below surged up the mountain road. Some Mamunuk knights living below tried to attack the defense line deployed by the guards, but they were defeated by the strong guards. Under the intensive confrontation with crossbows, these Mamunuks finally stopped.

"What now?"

The number of Mamunuk knights is between one hundred and fifty, and they are crowded together on the mountain road. They wear white holy armor, and carry shields that are wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. There are temples in the sky on their chests and shields. The sign said, "Stop immediately, otherwise we will not be polite!" came the stern voice of the guard from the front. In the black night, it was like the wind blowing across the rocks. Countless torches were quickly lifted up to illuminate the situation of the mountain road ahead. Transparent and bright,

The black-armored guards lined up in several rows, holding infantry pedal crossbows in their hands. The bowstring of the crossbow had been pulled. The cold light of the arrow clusters under the reflection of the torch made it even more chilling. The elite elite of the empire who had conquered the entire continent suddenly felt at this moment. The sharpness displayed made the chaotic Mamunuk knights on the opposite side not sure how to adapt.

"Let's wait until dawn and take a look!" Someone suggested in the chaos, and everyone fell silent. Most of the Mamunuks in the temple came from high-ranking nobles. They were either followers of a priest or followers.

Because they provide their own equipment, the armors they wear are very sophisticated, but the individualism pursued by the Mamunuk knights also makes them lack unified dispatch when facing such emergencies.

expensive

The arrogance and self-righteous style of the tribe made most of them work independently. Compared with the 60 murderous guards who blocked the road, the Mamunuk knights, who looked sad and angry, had a numerical advantage, but because of the lack of support from the top Unify the order, but each one hesitates to move forward,

No one knows what happened in the dark night, but one thing is certain, attacking the imperial guards is tantamount to rebellion.

In such a chaotic situation, even if they are shot on the spot, no one will stand up and say a word. If the rebellion comes down, not only will they die, but the family and relatives behind them will not be spared. , the stalemate for several hours has bought time for the Southern Army who arrived after receiving the signal.

20,000 soldiers arrived in the early morning, leaving the control of the Holy Mountain completely in the hands of the empire. However, this was also a problem that made Fatty feel thorny. He originally hoped to deal with it gently, but in the blink of an eye, he had already drawn his sword and the empire's The sword has been raised, so there is no reason to unsheath it without getting blood!

Seeing the fat man coming from the mountain road in the distance, the Southern Governor Statunko, who was arranging the queue, hurriedly greeted him and said urgently, "Your Majesty, the army has been assembled. They are all Wekeians, and there is absolutely no problem with our loyalty! As long as With His Majesty’s command, we can take action!”

"Do it? Why do you think so?" Fatty frowned slightly. The strong murderous intention here made Fatty, who was thinking about what to do, a little surprised. The southern governor seemed to be too eager. This is not like It's Statunko's usual style. "Your Majesty," Statunko looked around with some hesitation. , said in a low voice, "I have ordered the Southern Army in all parts of Salander to enter a state of combat readiness. Starting today, all within a hundred miles of the Holy Land will be in a state of blockade. The army is ready to go and can cut off these for Your Majesty at any time." It’s a cancer! Even if the temple is wiped off the map, it won’t be a big problem.”

"How to eradicate them? Kill them all without leaving any one behind?" Fatty glanced at the corner of his mouth when he heard this. He found that after the Battle of Normandy, he, the southern governor who used to have a soft personality, seemed to have begun to show his own characteristic iron-bloodedness. style,

Just like in the Black Forest, this subordinate carried out the order of genocide without any hesitation.

"Are we going to stop like this?"

Statunko blinked his eyes in surprise. This was not like Fatty's usual style. The explosion in the temple undoubtedly slapped His Majesty Falcon on the face. According to His Majesty's nature, he did not pounce and kick him hard. A few feet is absolutely impossible

Fatty looked at the top of the mountain road with deep eyes and said, "It is easy to clean out the hundreds of people in the temple, but can you also capture and cut off all the roots that continue from the temple? Everyone here, Behind them are more Salanders. Each sacrifice represents the hearts of Salanders. It only takes one knife to kill people, but to cut off these hearts, how many knives are you going to use? Ten thousand? Ten Ten thousand? Or one million?" "This..."

Statunko's face was embarrassed, and he felt that he was a little confused. From his heart, Salander was also the focus of his efforts. From participating in the Battle of Salander to finally taking over Salander, although With the support of Fatty, a semi-broken island was transformed into To develop into such a prosperous scene, Statunko has invested a huge amount of energy in this area. The explosion of the Sky Temple was indeed beyond his expectation. At present, if he wants to calm down His Majesty Falcon, His anger will inevitably sacrifice some people,

Instead of waiting for the whole incident to expand infinitely, it is better to suppress this crisis directly in the Holy Mountain. After all, there are only five or six hundred people here at most. Compared with millions of Salanders, if the current peaceful and prosperous scene can be continued , he felt it was worth it even if he had to bear the reputation of being a butcher,

As long as the wrath of His Majesty the Falcon does not come to this land, although this may cause Salander to waver, Statunko believes that most Salanders still hope to continue their current living conditions. , no one wants a large-scale war to break out

"This incident is not all bad for us!" To his surprise, Fatty turned his head and looked at the hundreds of temple priests who were forced to kneel there on the top of the mountain. The darkness was overwhelming, and they were suppressed by the army. Like a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered,

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "The situation is already under control. There is no difference whether it is earlier or later.

For an existence like the temple, it must either be immobile or clean and thorough. Isn’t the temple always trying to figure out our bottom line?

Then I will tell them directly and clearly that we have no interest in the temple, but if anyone wants to rely on this to challenge the authority of the empire, they will be asking for death! ""What does Your Majesty mean...?" Statunko looked at Fatty's back and felt a chill. "A list will be handed over to you tomorrow! No one from the above or anyone related to him will be left alive! "The fat man turned around, with a murderous look in his eyes. To be continued.
