Beast Throne

Chapter 600

Tianyang border, cold iron fortress.

Hantie was originally a frontier town, and its location was not particularly prominent. Although there were always troops stationed there, compared to other important military towns, the location of Hantie Town was not particularly critical.Not only that, but Hantie Town is also an important place for commercial trade between Tianyang and Baibing.After all, both countries have something that the other side needs, and mutual trade is inevitable. As long as the goods are not officially prohibited, as long as the tax is paid, both sides will turn a blind eye.

But since the demons began to be active on the border between the two countries, Hantie Town has become an important military location heavily guarded by the Tianyang Empire.There is no other reason, the space gap just appeared in the north of Hantie Town.According to past experience, demons usually don't choose to take a detour. If they want to invade Tianyang, the first place to bear the brunt is Hantie Town.

In this premise, a miracle happened.In less than two months, Cold Iron Town, which originally only had some simple defensive buildings, has almost become the strongest fortress in history. The solid walls are engraved with magic circles that can defend against large-scale magic, and the towering mage tower Instead of ordinary sentry towers, the city walls are filled with powerful but terribly expensive magic crystal cannons. Just looking at them will make people feel unbreakable.

Not only that, above the main castle, the mages of the Tianyang Empire even risked being backlashed and summoned an eye of the sun to illuminate it.The Eye of the Sun is a forbidden technique that is not passed on in the Tianyang Empire, and it needs to gather a large number of powerful magicians to complete it.On the surface, it seems that the Sun's Eye is a huge fireball similar to an eyeball. It can not only turn night into day, but also drive away the dark clouds in the sky, so as to maintain a good vision and prevent the opponent from sneaking.

But as a secret technique that is not rumored, the function of the eye of the sun is far more than that.At the critical moment, that eyeball with raging flames can shoot out a powerful and penetrating hot light, and all the creatures in the light will be wiped out in an instant, and no one has been able to resist its attack so far. power.

However, when facing the army of demons, the eyes of the sun also have a more embarrassing side.With such a huge and high-energy fireball, the fire element near Cold Iron Town was extremely active, and other magic elements were suppressed.Under such conditions, the power of a fire magician would be far superior to other magicians.But what is frustrating is that most of the demons are also masters at playing hellfire. No one knows whether the boost effect of the eye of the sun will also have an effect on demons.

The main battle armies of the Tianyang Empire with the strongest combat effectiveness have been stationed around Hantie Town for a long time, and it will make people feel tired after a long time.However, under the strict requirements of the Imperial Marshal Nimitz, everyone from the regiment staff to the small soldiers tensed up, without any slack.Even Nimitz himself would personally take the eldest prince Su Zhen to inspect the camp every day. Even the imperial marshal and the prince were like this, so the soldiers below naturally did not dare to be lazy.

But today, the top military officials seem to be lazy collectively.According to Nimitz's requirements, the officers are not special in the barracks. You can always see senior officers in military uniforms crowded together with ordinary soldiers when eating every day, but now they have disappeared collectively, as if they have opened a small stove Same.This abnormal situation made the soldiers somewhat puzzled, but no one thought about it too much. This situation was mostly due to the delay in holding a military meeting, and it was not unheard of in the past.Everyone still ate and drank enough to continue their inspections and training.

Compared with the fearless soldiers, the officers gathered in the conference room were gloomy.Paper can't keep fire. The news that the demon army suddenly took over the imperial city has reached Nimitz through secret channels. The wise Nimitz didn't deliberately conceal it, and immediately informed the main officers of each legion.

When the front line is under pressure, generally speaking, the fewer people who know about the attack on the rear, the better, but this time the situation is a little different.After all, most of the officers' families live in the imperial city, and their loved ones are likely to have died in Huangquan. If you still keep it from them, no one can accept it calmly if they are found out. It is very likely to cause unnecessary mutiny.

But compared with Nimitz and others, those senior officers are still happy.Nimitz only told them that the imperial city was occupied by demons, but he still held a special order in his hand.Nimitz did not dare to announce this order personally issued by Su Bolai, so he could only choose to keep it a secret for as long as possible.

In a secret room at the back of the conference room, Nimitz was leaning weakly on a back chair, and for the first time, his face that had been determined for decades seemed a little tired and weak.Around him, more than a dozen important military figures gathered either standing or sitting, including Ferros, who represented the court magician.On the other hand, the two princes, Su Zhen and Su Wei, stood side by side for a rare occasion, staring at the military order on the table, as if they wanted to see it disappear with their eyesight.

"Master Fellowes, what do you think, is there such a possibility?" Rubbing his eyes, Nimitz took the initiative to find Fellowes, and the two began to whisper in the corner.Although Ferros is undoubtedly on the side of the third child in the prince's succession, in fact, his relationship with Nimitz is quite good.Ferros also served in the military when he was young, and Nimitz admired his temperament, and he was not "coddled" like other court magicians.

"Master Marshal, hey..." Ferros knew what Nimitz was asking. The imperial city was occupied by demons overnight. Most people would definitely think that a crack in space just happened to appear in the imperial city, which is why people were caught off guard. .But dignitaries such as Nimitz all know that when the imperial city was established, it had originally chosen a place with the most stable space, and there were a large number of magic circles engraved underground.Under this premise, the probability of space cracks appearing is extremely small.

"Although I don't have a deep understanding of the space field, but..." Ferros hesitated to speak, but finally continued: "Actually, when I was at San Siro Academy, I once discussed with people that space cracks generally don't appear in space. Places where magic elements are particularly active, such as colleges or cities where magicians gather."

"So, hey..." Nimitz is not stupid, although Fellowes didn't say it clearly, his meaning couldn't be more obvious.Even if the imperial city is not the city with the most magicians on the mainland, it is enough to rank in the top three, not to mention that there are so many magic circles.If it wasn't for space cracks, then there was only one explanation: those demons were summoned.

To achieve this is definitely not a task that can be accomplished overnight.

"Marshal, do we really want to do that?" Ferros looked out the window, and he could vaguely see the vast prairie in the distance. "With all due respect, I don't believe the devil's words."

"I don't believe it either, but we can't let us not believe it." Nimitz shook his head lightly, the wrinkles on his face had never been so obvious, "Would you bet, I heard that your wife has been pregnant for several months .”

"I..." Ferros was speechless.Nimitz said yes, he didn't dare to bet.Although he is nearly forty years old, he has no heirs so far.In fact, his wife had just conceived just before departure, so Ferros vowed not to let the devil set foot in Tianyang.Unexpectedly, this kind of thing happened. He thought that the safest place on the mainland became a paradise for demons overnight.

But it was very clear on the scroll that the demons did not kill them, and their relatives were under the supervision of the demons for the time being.As for whether they can continue to live, it depends on the reactions of these people.

"Of course we can't really send troops, or we will follow in Baibing's footsteps sooner or later." Nimitz said through gritted teeth, feeling suddenly resentful in his heart.It is clear that Bing's strength is almost the same as that of Tianyang, and the defense power of the White Ice Royal Court is far inferior to the Imperial City, but the devil chose the Imperial City instead of the Baibing Royal Court. This is really a blatant slap in the face.

"Then we stay where we are?" Fellowes asked, which seemed to be the best way.If Nimitz really ordered to invade Baibing with the demons, not to mention the reaction of Baibing and other kingdoms, their soldiers alone would not be able to accept it.

"No way, it's impossible for us alone to resist so many demons." Nimitz has been fighting against Baibing all his life, and he knows the strength of both sides very well. Neither Tianyang nor Baibing can stop such a large number of demons attack.Especially the many demons with the ability to fly, it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to pose a threat to them.

"Then what should we do?" Fellowes was puzzled.

"I can only help, but it can't be too obvious." Nimitz said helplessly, "Let's find a way to send some people there, explain clearly that Bai Bing will understand. If we don't do anything, wait for the devil to turn around If you fight back against us, they won’t help you.”

Nimitz is indeed a figure who has commanded the barracks for decades. At most, others only think that if Tianyang does not help, the White Ice Empire will not be able to resist the demon army by itself.But Nimitz thought of another possibility. If Tianyang did not take action to anger Bai Bing and other forces, and the demons attacked Tianyang in turn, Tianyang would not only be alone and helpless, but would also face the demons before and after. Flanking, it's really over.

Reluctantly making a decision, Nimitz was about to call Su Zhen to execute it himself.But before he could make a move, Ferros on the side suddenly changed his expression, and immediately took out a fiery red crystal ball from his arms to check.

Nimitz stopped and turned around, also staring at the crystal ball.In the red crystal ball, several figures were reflected, flying non-stop at full speed in the air.And the leading one was a character that Nimitz could never have imagined.

Wu Tong, taking Nanna and the others, was flying towards Hantie Town at full speed.
