Alien world

Chapter 967 Chapter 198. All-out attack
"Did you hear that?"

"Of course, everyone knows that Lord Annan has a new female rat lover..."

"That's not what I'm talking about."

"Who else could it be? Don't keep me in suspense. I still have to go to the pub to drink."

"There was a massacre in the Kingdom of Rekanel. It is said that they couldn't find anyone from Free City, so they killed nearly a thousand civilians."

"Oh my god, are they crazy?!"

"When have they ever been normal?"

"It's terrible... I have to go to the pub to calm down."

"Are you still in the mood to drink?"

"This is to earn military funds for Liberty City! The more alcohol we drink, the more taxes Liberty City will collect, and the more cannons we can build!"

"Okay... that seems to make sense... Let's go, I'll go too!"

Gale watched the two passers-by who were talking walk away, his scarlet eyes flashing slightly, and he came to the door of the orphanage.

The nun in black and white nun's clothes stood in the garden, surrounded by jumping children. She felt something when Gail approached her, and she still had the smile that children loved to see, but her eyes were cold as ice.

"Rat man, this is not the place for you."

"Don't be so defensive. I'm only here to pick up Cathy."

The petite Gail and the tall nun were at loggerheads.

"Aunt Gail!"

A crisp sound was heard, and Cathy, with several fish painted on her face, ran over, stood in front of Gail, and looked at it sharply.

But if Gail hadn't seen Cathy beating a teddy bear for fifty minutes straight, she would have thought Cathy wanted a furry hug.

"Did another kid draw your face?"

"Who dares!" Cathy, the boss of the smartest people in Liberty City, the overlord of the orphanage, and the son of the lord of Liberty City, looked down on him, then softened his tone and said, "Who else dares except Ivana?"

"Are you here to take me to see Annan?"

"Of course!"

"Great!" Cathy jumped up excitedly, turned around to say goodbye to the nun, and held Gail's hand.

The scene looked somewhat heartwarming, with a cute little grey mouse holding the hand of a little girl - if Cathy hadn't been squeezing and kneading her.

……

At this time, the city lord's mansion.

Annan, the deputy lord of Liberty City, and the ministers sat in the conference room to discuss the massacre that had just occurred in Ize Bay.

Annan took a deep breath and said, "I know you are very angry. I only have one request...stay calm."

"I'm calm. Don't worry about the revelations. I've already prepared a draft." said Evelyn, the Minister of Information. "We have to do more than that." Annan looked around at everyone. "We've cornered the Kingdom of Rekanel. I'm worried about the others who are still in the kingdom... The kingdom is getting more and more crazy, and they're getting more and more dangerous."

"You want them to hide?" said Bronzebeard, whose forehead was half above the table.

Annan shook his head: "Then all our previous efforts have been in vain."

The kingdom is a quagmire, and as they sink themselves into it, the intervention of the Free City is inevitable.

The Free Blade is now in full bloom, but the main battlefields are still the West Coast of the Scarlet Witch, the Star City of Francois, and the Ize Bay of Little Smo.

Annan wanted to sell from the most stable place at present: "How is Xinger City?"

"I was just about to tell you," Olmedo said, "After the Green Ivy Knights promised us non-aggression, they spent a period of peace with us, but the new king was very dissatisfied. It is said that the royal family personally sent a prince and a guard to supervise the war."

"Then start with them first."

The Kingdom of Rekanel is brutal, but they never raise their butcher knives to the weaker ones. They will not put away their fangs unless they are hurt once.

Everyone had no objection to launching a formal attack, but there was a new problem: which legion should be sent to fight the Guards head-on?
Currently, the Hellfire Legion is stationed in Xinger City, but it is not enough to fight professionals.

Annan thought for a moment and said, "Send the Punishment Corps to Xing'er City."

A punitive army composed almost entirely of spellcasters can bully warriors just as easily as warriors bully civilians.

After deciding on the action, Annan walked out of the meeting room and saw Cathy and Gail sitting in the living room on the second floor waiting for him. He was stunned for a moment, then put away his serious expression and walked over.

……

《The Ize Bay Massacre!》

The new issue of "Voice of Freedom" blatantly exposes the cruel and ugly deeds of the Kingdom of Rekanel in Ize Bay, and also includes the images of the Jingguan that Free Blade took secretly in Ize Bay at the risk of his life.

At the end of the article, Evelyn said bluntly: I have never hesitated to speculate about the Kingdom of Rekanel with the darkest thoughts: Perhaps this is not the first time it has happened, but it is the first time that outsiders know about it, just like the Jingguan made of thousands of skulls.

Liberty City is considered a semi-opinion leader in Middle-earth: it may not be very powerful, but its voice is the loudest.
In order to avoid public outrage, those nobles who still have ties with the Kingdom of Rekanel have expressed their intention to cut ties with the kingdom and secretly blame the kingdom. How could they let such a thing get out?
The death of some civilians is not a big deal. It is a big deal if people know about it. And it is a huge deal if Liberty City knows about it.

Of course, the Kingdom of Rekanel would not admit it, and argued that it was a trick of Liberty City. However, given the image of "Little Wilhelm" that Liberty City had always established, people were more willing to believe Annan.

However, these lords still only maintained the level of "condemnation" rather than attacking.

From another perspective, this was the battle of the novice village of Liberty City: many forces were watching them, and the final battle would determine the status of Liberty City. Even the Elf King was watching to see how far they could go.

If they win against the Kingdom of Rekanel, they will admit that a new city-state will rise in Middle-earth. If they lose... the commercial streets of Free Cities scattered across Middle-earth, the North, and the South will become fat meat that everyone covets.

So the second version is that Free City took the initiative to start the "Battle of Xing'er City" - they will compete with the Prince's Guards of the Kingdom of Rekaner outside Xing'er City. In addition, Annan also sent a foreign army from the old land of Violet to the Kingdom of Rekaner.

Looking at the map, the Scarlet Witch, Francois, and Little Smoo were like nails driven into the Kingdom of Rekanel, while the alien army was like an army at war: it turned into an arrow, piercing straight into the kingdom's territory from the border... and then was invincible.

It's not that the foreign army is so powerful, but the border of the kingdom has been corrupted to an outrageous extent. Of the 100 supplies delivered by the new capital, 30 were taken out of the warehouse, 20 were left after leaving the city-state, and 10 were left in the hands of the officials, who then distributed this to the soldiers.

So the alien army easily defeated the border guards who had no fighting spirit, impaled the heads of the officials on spears, strung them together like the candied haws, a specialty of Liberty City, and carried them on the backs of the orcs.

The Kingdom of Rek'ar accuses the Free City of barbarity, and ironically, it started the war with a naive fantasy: they can be cruel to others, but others cannot be cruel to them.
