Start a Core Pod

  Chapter 471 Battle of the Royal City

   Soon, after gathering the soldiers centered on the 1st, 4th, and 5th 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 large number 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 city gates. At the same time, a square barrier of light appeared on the royal city, covering the entire inner city.

   "This is the imperial 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 Duanmuhuai.

"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 bit gloomy. After all, she was her mother anyway, but in fact, the other party never regarded herself 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, Duanmuhuai frowned.

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

   "Of course."

   "Then it's fine."

   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 work 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 Tribunal and King Qin's army helped Herman's people, and her inner worries gradually decreased-of course, even so, she could not casually reveal her secrets.

   Until now.

   “There is no point in regretting, especially for what has happened.”

   Duanmu Huai glanced at Sheila, then looked away.

"We don't know what the **** 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.

  Then what else can I do?

  Of course it’s not about regrets, the done deal, regrets are 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 foresaw the future and went to the royal city with the force of thunder, maybe they could indeed 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 again 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 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 foreseeing the future 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 only options are to follow the future, block the future, or ignore it... these three options.

"Don't always think about taking shortcuts. What human beings have to do is to do what human beings should do, do their best to know the destiny, and know the destiny without slack in human affairs. It is a stupid and meaningless behavior 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."

   "Okay, we have reached our destination."

  Duanmuhuai said while looking forward - where the gate of the royal city is clearly visible.

   "Attack!"

  Accompanied by Duanmuhuai's order, the battle... started like this.

  Titan raised his arm, and the next moment, a blue plasma beam burst out and hit the city gate directly. With an 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 you can't cooperate with tanks in melee combat? Melee is the bravest, most honorable, and proudest way of fighting. Instead of just daring to hide behind the robot with a gun and shoot coldly 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 **** with a weird, wretched face who has no reason to exist!

  Duanmu Huai swore that if he was allowed to meet those damned **** 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 watch the battle in front of us first.

   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, and all these soldiers were submerged 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 units.

   "We are 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 is he a soldier who is not afraid of death, but he is even a self-destruct soldier?

so troublesome………

   Duanmu Huai frowned, and immediately gave the 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!"

  An's actions are not dissatisfied, but......

   "We can'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. A face like that - as An said, this is not a living person at all.

   "Find 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 type of magic technique... ..."

   "What's the solution?"

   "It's difficult, 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 defeat the core..."

   While speaking, 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."

   "Fine, 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."
