The Duke of Booker has been completely covered by the diffused psychic particles. In such an environment, any fighting spirit, magic, and equipment driven by magic power cannot function normally.

After people lost their accustomed power, there was indeed serious chaos in the Duke's territory - but only three days later, the chaos in various places came to an abrupt end without any signs.

"It's other weapons. Duke Booker's soldiers are equipped with gunpowder weapons that have long been eliminated... Without the protection of fighting spirit and magic shield, human flesh and blood cannot withstand bullets and shells."

When Duke Oufei received the information that his subordinates exchanged their lives for, he finally fully understood Duke Booker's strategy.

In fact, humans invented gunpowder guns and cannons a long time ago - but because such weapons are difficult to hurt strong monsters, and cannot fight against humans with fighting spirit or magic power, they were soon forgotten in the corner of history.

However, now that the diffused spiritual power has completely sealed the abilities of humans, these simple and crude weapons have once again taken the stage.

"If that's the case, then Duke Booker is very wise."

When Xia Ye got the news from Duke Oufei, she immediately made such an evaluation to Claire.

However, Her Royal Highness just sneered at this - because she had already obtained a more powerful weapon.

"That old guy's idea is indeed good, but how long can he last? The people in the territory can endure it for a day or two at home, can they endure it for a month?"

The biggest problem with this strategy is that it will stop all production activities in the territory.

In the short term, it may be supported by the stored materials, but over time, the Duke's territory will begin to collapse from the inside.

So Duke Booker must decide the outcome with his opponent in a short time... But now no one knows who the opponent is.

"According to Duke Oufei's analysis, the person with the greatest suspicion at present is Duke Scott."

"Is that because he himself has a grudge against the Scott family?"

Claire does not think that Duke Scott is a traitor. Because as a magician, she was actually taken care of by the old duke.

"No matter who it is, Duke Booker cannot fall now."

The problem now is that no matter who the potential traitor is, that person has forced Duke Booker to use a strategy that is almost suicidal.

And if Duke Booker falls first, the foundation of the empire will be seriously shaken.

"In short, it is difficult for people here to get news from the outside world... If it weren't for Zhu Ying who can fly out of this ghost place at any time, we can only bump around without a clue."

"So, Your Highness, what are you going to do next?"

"I'm going to--"

Before Claire could express her thoughts, an alien mercenary suddenly ran into her room, and then reported to her loudly with an anxious look.

"Report! The captain... the captain who was out on patrol just discovered that regular troops were entering the Duke's territory from the south! Judging from their equipment, they seem to be... the Twilighters and the Cadians!"

"The Cadians?! How is that possible!?"

"Don't worry. Miss Zhu Ying, please go out and investigate."

After waving to the maid with Ying's hair to verify the situation, Xia Ye's expression became solemn.

Kuran would not joke about such things, so he would probably not be wrong - but the Twilighters were understandable, but what about the Cadians?

Although the Cadia Kingdom and the Twilight Kingdom do border each other... but how could the warlike Twilighters join forces with Cadia?

"My husband said before that the Cadians were preparing to invade... So they went around to the south!"

"Your Highness, calm down for a while. The empire's southern defense line has not collapsed. These people should be just a small infiltration and reconnaissance force."

But being able to pass through the empire's defense line and enter the Duke's territory so easily only means that this unit is the enemy's elite.

If the other side quickly breaks down into small groups and lies dormant, then once the empire reveals a flaw, they can work together from the inside and outside to completely tear open the southern defense line.

"I guess they are here to destroy the supply of magic source stones... I didn't expect the Cadians to intervene from this side."

"Go inform the Duke of this news, and then ask Kuran to come to see Her Royal Highness the Princess immediately."

"No need, Director Xia Ye! I'm here!"

When the handsome mercenary leader ran in breathlessly, the alien mercenary also retreated immediately.

And looking at Kuran's slightly embarrassed appearance, Keliya's mood gradually sank.

Things changed too quickly... and she was completely passive here.

"...I shouldn't haveWrong! That group of people came prepared, they all brought weapons like muskets, and there were at least several hundred people! "

"It's an infiltration unit... someone is secretly cooperating with their actions!"

"Please try to stay calm, otherwise there will be no way to think of countermeasures."

Xia Ye's emotionless exhortation made Keliya and Kuran quickly calm down.

At this time, they should really stay calm as much as possible, otherwise they will lose their composure before the other side starts attacking.

"The Duke's territory is in this state now. It is difficult to find the exact whereabouts of such a small-scale infiltration unit. Even if we spread this news, no one will believe it."

"That's right... No one can come here to verify that the Cadians have invaded the empire."

"I think the traitor should have formulated a plan for infiltration and sabotage for the enemy long ago, and Duke Booker's radical strategy just happened to cover the other side's actions. ”

Because the Duke's territory is full of spiritual power now, if someone wants to come in to investigate the situation or provide support, they must endure the serious weakening of their fighting spirit and magic power.

Under such circumstances, the well-prepared enemy will easily eliminate any external interference.

"So my personal suggestion is that we here should first use our combat power advantage to eliminate these foreign enemies as much as possible, and then find a way to support Duke Booker. ”

"Can't we ask for help from the young master? Does he have a warship over there?"

"No, the Cadians must be eyeing the border territory at this time. If my husband drives the Prison Flower away now, they might launch a frontal attack from there. "

The Prison Flower is the only strategic deterrent in the Border Territory now. Although the Fourth Legion is ready to fight, there are all kinds of people in the Border Territory now. No one knows if someone will stab them in the back when the fight really starts.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, Keliya does not want to ask Aarons for help.

But she has lost her fighting spirit and magic due to the erosion of her spiritual power, and she really feels her powerlessness at this moment.

"... Has my husband always been fighting in this state?"

"Even if the young master has no power, he always wants to stand in the front and point the way for others... It's enough to have one person who is difficult to take care of like this. You must not learn from him."

Why did the princess suddenly think of a man at this time? But Kulan, who secretly complained in his heart, did not say this sentence, but just raised his eyebrows awkwardly.

Anyway... they will soon face a fierce battle.
