The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

To the east of Lionheart City, there are a large number of cities that have not been invaded by the war.

Outside a city closest to Lionheart City, a large number of royal griffins are constantly taking off and landing.

One of the ace troops of the Eastern Empire, the Royal Griffin Knights, is deployed at this location at the moment.

The Royal Griffin Knights have a total of 90,000 royal griffins and 10,000 royal griffin knights.

On average, for every royal griffin knight, there are 9 royal griffins responsible for cover and killing.

It is not difficult to tame a royal griffin, but it is extremely difficult to train a royal griffin knight.

The weight of the griffin itself is large, and carrying a knight will almost lose all its combat ability.

Moreover, the knight cannot wear heavy armor, and its combat ability is not as good as that of the knight on the ground, let alone the concept of the dragon knight.

Whether it is air or ground, the dragon knight has extremely strong combat power, while the griffin knight has strong ground output due to its flying ability, and is not even as good as the 6th-level royal griffin in air.

However, it is not easy to train a dragon knight, but it is different for the griffin.

It is easy to find a group of strong and healthy royal griffins by carefully selecting and breeding them from griffin eggs.

But even so, the standard configuration of the 10,000-man griffin legion used for combat is only 300 griffin knights.

The ratio of royal griffin knights to griffins in this royal griffin knights is an exaggerated 10 to 1.

Obviously, this is an ace unit.

Even from the number of this unit, we can know that this was not originally the army of Grand Duke Yuwen.

As an air force, the Royal Griffin Knights should have been the first to arrive at Lionheart City, just like Xu Lai at the beginning.

But unfortunately, Grand Duke Yuwen, who was already fighting the undead in the cemetery, did not want to provoke the devil.

So at the beginning, the Eastern Empire was not very active in Lionheart City.

However, it was different after Xu Lai drove the devil away. The ministers of the Eastern Empire all felt that this was God's help to the Eastern Empire.

The empire was divided. The Eastern Empire had neither a name nor a parliament. It relied entirely on its strength to forcefully call itself the Eastern Empire.

Xu Lai was not valued by the people of the Eastern Empire before, and the Eastern Empire's envoys were even more rude and were directly driven away by Xu Lai.

This behavior made the Eastern Empire hate him even more, and they wanted to find an excuse to send troops to attack Xu Lai immediately.

However, the pressure from the undead was too great, and this was still the case when the undead in the cemetery were fighting on two fronts.

No matter how mobile the Griffin Corps was, it was impossible to cross half of the empire and go to the grassland to cause trouble for Xu Lai.

What's more, although the Eastern Empire had a powerful Griffin Corps.

But among these Griffin Corps, the most core ace Royal Griffin Corps was not in the hands of Grand Duke Yuwen Shaoguang.

The Supreme King Aled moved all the Griffin Corps to the Eastern Empire, and naturally considered the problem of the Eastern Empire's self-reliance.

So, in the name of forming a royal corps, Aled selected the best knights, archers, and the strongest griffins raised in the entire empire.

The Royal Knights have been stationed in the imperial capital, and the Royal Archers were given to his daughter by the 36th Supreme King.

The Royal Griffin Corps, composed of the best griffin knights and the strongest royal griffins from the entire Eastern Empire, is led by the most trusted general of the Supreme King.

If the Supreme King was still there, the hero named Rhea Edrick would only obey the leadership of the Supreme King.

But the Supreme King disappeared inexplicably, so that the entire empire fell apart.

At this time, if Rhea Edrick went against the Yuwen family again, it would be extremely unwise.

After all, strictly speaking, most of the Royal Griffin Knights under his command were recruited from the Eastern Empire.

However, the two sides are not of one mind after all, especially Rhea had the Supreme King's instruction before, and went to the Eastern Empire to suppress the Yuwen family.

If it weren't for the threat of the undead, the Yuwen family and Rhea Edrick might have fought first.

But even so, Rhea was not obedient to orders and was not active in fighting.

However, this time, when Lionheart City was snatched away by Xu Lai, the two sides reached a rare agreement.

Lionheart City is the foundation of the Edelik family, and Rhea is eager to return to Lionheart City.

The Eastern Empire also urgently needs a capital-level city, especially after the Northern Empire was established with the support of the Temple.

You know, the Northern Empire got rid of the threat of demons inexplicably.

Without the threat of demons, the Northern Empire established a country again, and it was the time to exaggerate its power on a large scale.

At that time, the Eastern Empire was not a country, and even if it could defeat the undead, it would not be able to stop the annexation of the Northern Empire.

It is impossible to say that Yuwen Shaoguang has no ambition at all. If he has no ambition, there will be no Eastern Empire.

On the contrary, the group of united nobles in the Western Empire are truly without ambition.

Especially when he learned that there are only a few thousand griffins and hundreds of angels of Xu Lai in the entire Lionheart City, he felt even more itchy.

Yuwen Shaoguang knew very well how powerful the griffins were. The only difficult ones were the angels.

Angels were top-level air forces. There was a huge gap between the 6th-level royal griffins and the angels.

Not to mention, Yuwen Shaoguang also got news that the angels under Xu Lai were at least 8th-level archangels.

Besides the 8th-level Archangels, the largest number were actually the 9th-level Seraphs, as well as more than a hundred strange angels that they had never seen before.

The ordinary griffon army might not even be able to break through the defense against this angel army.

Therefore, the only person Yuwen Shaoguang can count on is Rhea Edric.

The Edric family is a famous griffin family, especially good at raising and commanding griffins.

Under the leadership of the Edric family, the griffins and griffon knights will have stronger attack power, defense power, as well as attack and movement speed.

Edric's talent, the gryphon, can basically be seen as raising the gryphon to a higher level.

As long as we capture this angel force, and with support from within Lionheart City, and with the flying advantage of the gryphons, it will be very simple to capture Lionheart City.

And even if no one responds, given the current level of dilapidation in Lionheart City, it is basically impossible to do any effective defense.

After taking Lion Heart City, Yuwen Shaoguang can establish the real Eastern Empire.

"Legion Commander, all supplies have been replenished and are ready to go at any time."

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Rhea nodded lightly, but did not issue any orders.

About to fly out of the Eastern Empire, the Royal Griffin Legion is making final supplies in this city on the edge.

Rhea's silence made Yuwen Xin, the second son of the Yuwen family, quite dissatisfied.

Yuwen Shaoguang asked Ruiya to bring his direct legion to fight, which must have promised huge benefits.

Under such circumstances, the Yuwen family was naturally not at ease, so they sent Yuwen Xin, who was not the heir, over.

"Your Excellency, Commander of the Legion, the military situation is very good. The army has been prepared. I wonder what you are waiting for?"

"Young Master Xin, don't worry. We'll know what we're waiting for when the scouts I sent out come back."

Yu Wenxin frowned and looked at Rhea in confusion.

Rhea didn't show off and explained:

"I sent out a total of more than a dozen reconnaissance riders. If there are no special circumstances near Lion Heart City, they should be back within half an hour."

"How long have they been flying out?"

Rhea said: "About 40 minutes."

"In other words, they may have been discovered by the angels of Lionheart City?"

Rhea shook his head and said: "The scouts I sent out specifically asked them not to get too close to Lion Heart City.

In addition, the reconnaissance cavalry I sent out went in different directions.

Even if there is an interception along the way, someone should rush back to report it.

The current situation can only explain one thing. "

"What?" Before Yu Wenxin could ask again, several figures of gryphon knights appeared on the horizon.

"Reporting to the commander of the army, a large number of troops have been discovered in the south of Lion Heart City, and they are rapidly approaching the direction of Lion Heart City.

These legions, mainly infantry and archers, number about 200,000 people.

Judging by the numbers, they should be the Royal Archer Regiment and the Infantry Regiment of the Southern Empire. "

As members of the Royal Legion, the Royal Gryphon Knights will never mistake the designation of the Royal Archers Regiment.

However, the Southern Empire is crisscrossed by waterways and is basically developed with infantry as its main focus. There are so many infantry regiments that it is not surprising that they cannot be recognized.

“It seems that we are not the only ones who have the idea of ​​Lion Heart City.

Now there is trouble. The archers of the Royal Archer Group are all at least level 6, and they are also equipped with magic longbows on a large scale.

If there was only the Infantry Corps, we could bully them at will, but with the Royal Archer Corps, we may not be our opponents. "

Yu Wenxin rubbed the space ring on his hand and said:

"If His Majesty Aled does not disappear, Count Jasmine should have a good chance of inheriting the position of High King."

Rhea shook her head and said: "It's hard to say, her two sons both have foreign surnames.

Otherwise, His Majesty Aled would not have to train his nephews. "

While he was talking, several Royal Griffin Knights also appeared in the northern sky.

"Report to the Legion Commander that a large number of Northern Empire troops have been discovered in the north.

There were about 30,000 knights, infantry, and no number of archers, and no air units or siege weapons were found. "

Rhea sighed and said, "Where are their movements?"

The griffon knight said: "We are moving towards Lion Heart City, but the speed is not very fast."

"Why are they rushing over if they are not fast? Do you want to follow behind and take advantage?" Rhea frowned.

Yu Wenxin also said: "I just wanted to advise you that it is better to let the Southern Empire's army meet Xu Lai first, and we will wait and see later."

Rhea didn't dare to let the royal griffon fly over Lionheart City. It would be too far to take a detour, so the scouts he deployed were only in the north and south directions.

Now, all the scouts have returned to the team, but Rhea doesn't know whether to take action or not.

"Now that the capital is out, let's go take a look first."

Ruiya still wants to get back Lionheart City, whether it is the benefits promised by Yuwen Shaoguang or for her family.

The news he received from the family was that Xu Lai, the advent hero, was not very friendly to traditional nobles like them.

"Should we go to Lion Heart City first?" Yu Wenxin asked.

"Of course not. Going to Lion Heart City at this time is clearly letting others take advantage. Let's go south first.

If the people named Xu discover the Southern Empire's army, we'll just sit back and watch the show.

If they don't find it, let's help them. "

"But as soon as we show up, Xu will know that we are also targeting Lionheart City.

Will he fight with the Southern Empire?

Besides, if we bring a large army over, what should we do if the people of the Northern Empire take advantage of us?"

"Hehe, we are all flying troops, so we won't go close.

After Xu finds us, the worst thing he can do is leave first.

Xu can't fly either, so would he dare to let the angels chase us?

Even if he dares, without the angels, how can he defend Lionheart City.

I heard that he didn't get the castle heart of Lionheart City. Once he abandons the city, it will really become someone else's.

As for the Northern Empire, I guess they don't want to go to war with Xu.

Bringing a group of knights over, it doesn't look like they are going to attack the city."

Yuwen Xin nodded and said, "Then let's go south first."

After the plan was settled, Rhea Edrick waved his hand, and large groups of royal griffins took off quickly under the leadership of the griffin knights.

One hundred thousand griffins, even if they landed on the ground, they would be a huge mass. When they flew into the sky, they looked like a huge golden cloud.

Now they were still far from Lionheart City, so maybe others would not notice them.

But if they flew for another ten minutes and were within a hundred kilometers of Lionheart City, others would not be able to ignore them.

However, Rhea did not care, because they were a flying unit, and even the strong angel army would not dare to break away from the heroes to chase them.

The speed of the Royal Griffin Corps was not fast, and they were not heading towards Lionheart City.

Rhea and his men deliberately rushed to the south at the slowest speed, firstly to use themselves as bait to attract Xu Lai's attention to the Southern Empire Army.

Secondly, it was to give both of them time and save their own strength in case they were needed to join the battle.

When they flew slowly towards Nani Port, the Royal Griffin Knights responsible for reconnaissance in front came back to report again.

"Have Xu Lai and the Southern Empire's army already started fighting?

How many angels did Xu send out? What? None?"

The scout's report made Rhea frown.

Rhea attached great importance to reconnaissance work, so the scouts in the Royal Griffin Regiment were the most elite and were trained by him personally.

However, it was this group of elite scouts he trained personally who told him that Xu Lai did not send out any angels, but sent out an army of more than 100,000 knights.

If these people had not said the same thing, Rhea really wanted to ask them if they knew how terrifying an army of more than 100,000 knights was.

"Captain of the Legion, how dare we report false news?

When we arrived, the knights of the Eagle Kingdom had already raised their flags. If you go there now, you will probably be able to see them fighting."

Hearing this, Rhea did not dare to neglect it and immediately ordered to speed up.

However, when he arrived near the battlefield, he was still a step late.

Not only was the battle over, but the Eagle Kingdom had not spent any effort.

Anyway, on the battlefield, where corpses were scattered all over the ground, there were almost no bodies of the Eagle Kingdom, and all that could be seen were the fallen flags and armor of the Southern Empire.

Without a large number of heavily armored spearmen, Rhea racked his brains, but he couldn't figure out how to rely on a group of infantry and archers to resist the charge of the cavalry.

The people of the Southern Empire couldn't imagine it either, so after a charge, the knights were either dead or surrendered.

"Let's go, with so many cavalry and archers on the side, we can't take Lionheart City."

Rhea Edrick had just finished speaking when he heard a voice from above:

"Since we are here, why are you in such a hurry to leave!" (End of this chapter)
