Start a core cabin

Soon, after gathering the soldiers centered on the First, Fourth, and Fifth Legions, the joint army of the Tribunal and King Qin immediately set off and headed towards the royal city.

This time, Sheila did not stay in the guards as before. After all, she is the emperor now. Although there have been no rumors about this matter so far, and only some high-level people know about it, as the emperor of Herman, it is of course impossible to put She puts herself in danger again.

So now Sheila has become Duanmuhuai's follower --- after all, there is no place safer than this.

Soon, with the activation of the emperor-level titan, the entire army began to march towards the royal city.

As expected, the council also reacted.

"They sent out a lot of soldiers."

Duanmuhuai glanced at the video sent back by the Valkyrie gunboat, and at the same time as the army set off, he saw countless soldiers in golden armor appearing from the royal city, blocking the streets and gates. At the same time, a square barrier of light appeared on the royal city, covering the entire inner city.

"This is the royal family's defensive enchantment."

Although she is a puppet emperor, as an emperor, Sheila still knows everything she should know, so she quickly explained to Duanmu Huai.

"I don't know the specific principle. I only know that this is the barrier left by the Holy Demon Religion here long ago to protect the core area. No one can break through this barrier and enter. Once they enter the barrier, their flesh and blood will be destroyed. It will be completely melted, leaving only bones and armor... Only members of the royal family can open it, and from the current point of view, it should be my... Queen Mother."

Speaking of this, Sheila's expression was a little gloomy. After all, she was her mother anyway, but in fact, the other party never regarded her as her daughter since she was a child. Even when she was imprisoned by Stiles, her mother chose that man instead of her...

"So you mean, even if you defeat them, you won't be able to enter the core area?"

Hearing Sheila's introduction, Duanmu Huai frowned.

"Is there any other way? Like a secret passage or something?"

"Of course there is."

"That's all right."

Duanmuhuai made a decisive decision.

"We first surrounded the entire royal city, then entered the palace through a secret passage, and then you go to close the barrier, and then we captured Prime Minister Stiles and the members of the council, and then finished the job smoothly. Is there a problem?"

"……………No."

"Huh? You don't seem too excited?"

Seeing Sheila's depressed expression, Duanmu Huai looked at her curiously, and the latter nodded.

"Yes, I actually regret it... If I had known this would happen, I should have stood up and told everyone about it..."

In fact, the reason why Sheila didn't say it was very simple. After all, at the beginning, she was not sure what the nature of Qin Wangjun was. Although she was a canary locked in a cage, it didn't mean she was stupid. In case the King Qin's army or the trial court had malicious intentions, then he would have stepped out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den.

But along the way, she also saw how the trial court and King Qin's army helped Herman's people, and her inner worries gradually decreased—of course, even so, she couldn't casually reveal her secrets.

until now.

"It's pointless to regret, especially for what has happened."

Duanmu Huai glanced at Sheila, then looked away.

"We don't know what the hell Stiles is doing, and we don't know what he has. We have made a decision based on the information we have and brought the current result, which is enough. As for the result Whether it pleases everyone is another matter."

In fact, Duanmuhuai can understand Sheila's thoughts very well. In fact, many people who desire to foresee the future are like this. But in Duanmuhuai's view, it is meaningless to regret the reality that has become settled. It was as if if they had known that Stether would kill all the residents in the city, they would definitely attack the royal city directly instead of liberating other areas first.

But the problem is that they don't know!

So that's it.

What else can I do?

Of course it’s not about regret, the done deal, regret is useless, all we need to do is to think about new countermeasures based on the current situation.

So, with the ability to foresee the future, can it be avoided?

Maybe.

But there may be a completely different future, perhaps worse.

If they had foreseen the future and went to the royal city with a thunderbolt, they might indeed be able to prevent the future of the royal city from being slaughtered. But maybe in the end that Stiles would run away, triggering a catastrophe that almost plunged the entire Herman Kingdom and even the world into crisis.

At that time, maybe I will start to regret it if I didn't change the future.

After all, the death of a person in a city is completely different from the death of a person in a continent.

So you see, regret is meaningless, even if you load the file and start over, it doesn't mean that you will be able to get the ending you want.

Therefore, foreseeing the future is actually a very stupid thing. In Duanmuhuai's view, any kind of future prediction is like forcing a choice for you in a free sandbox game.

If you don't have this choice, you may be free to do what you want to do according to your own ideas.

But once you are given a direction, then your next choice is to follow the future, prevent the future, or ignore it... these three choices.

"Don't always think about taking shortcuts. What human beings have to do is to do what human beings should do, to know the fate of the world, and to know the fate of the world without slack in human affairs. It is stupid and meaningless to regret the irreparable situation. Now we All you have to do is think about how to deal with it!"

"........."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Sheila was startled, but she quickly pulled herself together and nodded vigorously.

"I see, thank you Lord Judge for your reminder."

"Alright, we've reached our destination."

As Duanmu Huai spoke, he looked forward --- there, the gate of Wangcheng was clearly visible.

"Attack!"

Following Duanmu Huai's order, the battle... thus began.

Tai Tan raised his arm, and the next moment, a blue plasma beam shot out suddenly, hitting the city gate directly. With the earth-shattering explosion, the entire gate and the nearby city walls were completely destroyed. Then, under the leadership of the poisonous sword heavy tank, the Leman Ruth tank army and the Fourth Army also rushed in.

The ground attack adopts an infantry-tank coordinated combat method, that is, a method in which tanks are responsible for covering soldiers for surprise attacks. Considering that this is street fighting in the city, this method is more suitable. Of course, this kind of infantry-tank coordinated operations is not strictly modern. After all, those soldiers are not holding guns, but cold weapons. Only the mages behind them still looked a bit like a modern heavy firepower battalion.

But from Duanmuhuai's point of view, there is nothing wrong with it. Who said that close combat cannot cooperate with tanks? Melee is the bravest, most honorable, and proudest way of fighting. Instead of just daring to hide behind the robot with a gun like the sissy cowards of the Tau tribe, what kind of skill is that?

A bunch of trash! coward! A fish-faced alien without a nose! A vagrant bastard with a weird, wretched face who has no reason to exist!

Duanmuhuai swore that if he was allowed to meet those damn bastards in this world again, he would definitely lead the Tribunal to destroy all the galaxies defiled by these bastards, leaving no one behind.

But for now, let's just look at the battle in front of us.

Facing the powerful firepower of the Tribunal, the soldiers in golden armor did not have the slightest fear. On the contrary, they rushed towards the army in front of them without hesitation! !

Immediately after……………

"Boom boom boom!!!"

A series of explosions sounded, immediately submerging these soldiers in the explosion of flames. But this did not stop the latecomers. They continued to charge forward, passing through the smoke and the corpses of their companions, and rushed forward.

Then……………

"Boom boom boom!!!"

Another series of explosions, but this time, the explosions were not from armored forces.

"We're under attack!"

Soon, Maria's anxious voice appeared in Duanmuhuai's ear.

"what happened?"

"Those soldiers seem to have some kind of special equipment, they will explode!"

Good guy, not only a soldier who is not afraid of death, but even a self-destruct soldier?

so troublesome……………

Duanmu Huai frowned, and immediately gave an order.

"Contact An and Guleya, let them lead the magic troops to find a way to cover the firepower as much as possible, and also, catch a few alive!"

"yes!"

Ann's actions were not dissatisfied, but......

"We couldn't catch any alive."

Standing in front of Duanmu Huai, An looked helpless.

"Because they're all dead!"

Accompanied by An's words, Guleya next to him took out a frozen soldier. Through the ice, everyone could clearly see that there was a rotten and shriveled sheet inside that looked like a mummy or a mummy. Such a face—as An said, this is not a living person at all.

"Have you figured out how they work?"

"a part of it."

Hannah frowned, looking at the soldier in front of her with a bit of disgust.

"According to our research, the other party used a technique of embedding specially made metal into the corpse, and then using magic power to control it within a limited amount...Of course, this is indeed a kind of magic technique ……”

"What's the solution?"

"It's hard, they only accept limited instructions, and the brain only has an attack instinct. They can't think for themselves. If you want to destroy them, you have to destroy the core..."

While talking, Hannah took out a metal ball.

"It's this thing, but it's buried in the bodies of these soldiers, so it's basically hard to destroy."

"That is to say, someone used this thing to control these dead people? Then, as long as we find this thing, we can release the control?"

"Theoretically? Since you can accept the control, you should be able to release the control."

"Very well, I see."

Hearing Hannah's answer, Duanmuhuai nodded, and then he looked at Sheila who was standing aside.

"Okay, His Majesty the Emperor, please lead the way."
