Tana, who was still in the shape of a dragon, let out a roar, her tail was like a steel whip, and she lashed towards the rocky giant in front of her. With the sharp sound of piercing through the air, the giant's arms used to resist were instantly shattered, and then Immediately afterwards, Tana's two hind paws grabbed the stone giant's shoulders, and then the huge magic power gathered in her mouth, turning into dark purple dragon's breath and spitting it towards the huge stone head. The breath instantly melted and penetrated the stone giant. The giant's head, then turned a large swath of land behind him into a lake of lava.

But the magic power reaction in the stone giant's body didn't weaken much. Instead, a khaki magic circle appeared between him and Tana, and then a huge amount of stalagmites flew out of the circle, piercing towards Tana.

"Such a large-scale elemental magic is all generated with magic power?"

Tana was startled, and the dragon wings let go of the stone giant and flew into the sky. The scales on the body surface were filled with magic power. Although the huge stalagmites were strengthened by magic power and doubled in power, they were still difficult to deal with the tough dragon scales. Shaking, only slight scratches were left on it, and then the magic power of Tana gathered in her mouth again, and the black-purple magic light overflowed directly from the gap between the teeth, and the pitch-black dragon opened its mouth. The breath almost lost the form of flames, and turned into a pure release of magic power, turning into a beam of light that engulfed the stone giant, "You really despise your own magic power too much!"

boom!

The dragon's breath engulfed the stone giant and bombarded the ground, instantly flying the surrounding demons. Because the energy of the breath this time was extremely concentrated, its spread was not too large, but the ground directly bearing the blow was only There was a bottomless pit left, but the radius of the spreading depression was still hundreds of meters wide, and the pitch-black crack spread even further. This time, the magical reaction of the stone giant was finally complete. Disappeared.

Tana landed beside the big pit and let out a cold snort, a little flame burst out of her nostrils, "Elemental life is troublesome, and the vitality is so tenacious—hiss, why are these stone bumps disgusting my mother here? I didn't either." Get him to mess with him?"

Tana stretched her neck to look into the bottomless hole, couldn't help stretching out her paws and scratching her head curiously, sparks splashed.

But at this moment, her pupils shrank, and she quickly put away her dragon wings to wrap her body in them, only to see a flash of lightning coming from far away and striking Tana's wings, leaving a scorching mark, and then Tana Tana quickly spread her wings and swung her claws to strike forward. At the same time, a green humanoid creature like a beetle also emerged from the soil, swung two axes and swung at Tana, which happened to strike at Tana. When they landed on Tana's claws, there was a loud sound of metal and iron clanging, and the terrifying force was transmitted to the ground under their feet through the bodies of the two, and the ground cracked inch by inch.

"You...why are you here?"

The dark purple dragon pupil stared at the big bug in front of her, and Tana said coldly: "Elinor, this is obviously not your territory, why did you appear here, you old bug?"

The big bug named Eleanor was silent for a while, and then said in a hoarse voice slowly: "Anyway, we have to fight Keynes, so does it matter where it appears?"

At this moment, another bolt of lightning struck Tana, and she was forced to take a few steps back, then looked at the newly appeared blue energy body that was beating with lightning, "Caron..."

Then came the third figure, the fourth, the fifth...

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen figures exuding powerful fluctuations in magic power have appeared on this battlefield. The weakest among them has the level of the seventh level, and the strongest has reached the ninth level, but the most surprising thing is that their identities.

Eleanor is the demon king far away on the other side of the magic island, while Caron is an elemental life that does not belong to any force, and the rest of the figures are also distributed【%

What brought them together?

A few groups of black shadows are slowly approaching from the sky, they are the army of these dozen or so demon kings.

Tana thumped in her heart, thinking something was wrong. Although she herself would not be timid in the face of the siege of these dozen demon kings and an elemental creature, the army she led was different. Compared with Tana, Those soldiers were too fragile, and the aftermath of the battle of the demon kings alone was enough to threaten their lives, not to mention the terrifying army.

So Tana took a deep breath, and then her loud voice spread throughout the battlefield: "The Cairns Empire belongs! The whole army retreats! Take out the guy who saved your life with the top hair! No one is free to collect your corpses, and my mother has no time either." Thinking about where you all died!"

The loud voice infused with magic power reached everyone's ears very easily. A Balrog belonging to the Cairns Empire froze for a moment, then swung the lava sledgehammer in its hand and smashed the enemy in front of it into the ground. He took out a shining gemstone from his arms and crushed it, and immediately several rays of magic power wrapped around his body, both strength, speed and magic power were strengthened to varying degrees, and then the group of soldiers fought Let's retreat and start trying to gradually leave the battlefield.

At this time, Tana also looked at the black shadows that had surrounded her again, and then the dragon wings wrapped herself, and her figure shrank rapidly. When the wings opened again, what was wrapped in it was no longer a dragon, But a tall woman.

Tana, who had become human again, twisted her neck and stretched her knuckles, her sharp black claws gleamed coldly, and she smiled contemptuously: "Come on, let's go together, don't say that the old lady is bullying, how embarrassing it is if it spreads!" Son."

The other demon kings looked at each other, and then rushed towards Tana together.

Click!

Tana's figure disappeared in an instant, and when she reappeared, she was already in front of a demon king. Her knee was directly embedded in his head, and the sound of bone cracking was clearly recognizable, although this blow would not cause fatal injuries to the tenacious demon. , but it has seriously affected his combat ability, and he will not be able to return to the battlefield in a short time.

Leaning her body back, Tana dodged the oncoming bone blade, then kicked the one with both feet that sunk its head in and kicked back together with the one holding the bone blade, and then looked at her results. Satisfied with [%&

While speaking, Tana turned around and punched a bull-headed demon king head-on. The demon king's arms were thicker than Tana's waist, but the result of the collision of the two very different fists was that the demon king In a complete defeat, the phalanx was broken in an instant!

Immediately afterwards, Tana spit out a mouthful of dragon's breath, roasting the demon king thoroughly. Unfortunately, this mouthful of salt soda did not have time to accumulate magic power, and the demon king happened to be of the rough-skinned and thick-skinned type, so it could not be killed in one gulp. Just let it burn badly.

At the same time, several buckets of lightning struck Tana, but it was a pity that it was perfectly blocked by the dragon wings spread out from her back. Immediately afterwards, Tana grabbed the hand of the bull-headed demon king and threw it violently. To Kalon who was saving the next lightning bolt, Kalon had no choice but to be interrupted, and then opened the electric shield to block him. The Minotaur Demon King was hit by the electric current again, fell to the ground, and took a long time to stand up again.

This is?

Tana frowned immediately, but the current emergency did not allow her to think about it so much. Eleanor had already swung the twin axes and charged at Tana. Tana punched the ax fearlessly, making a loud bang.

Even she, when facing so many demon kings, has to weigh it carefully and treat it with caution.

However, as long as enough time is delayed for the army to retreat, the goal has been achieved.

Chapter 59 Preparations for War

The scuffle between Tana and the demon kings lasted for a long time. After all, Tana had to pay attention to the retreat of her own army. In the end, the demon king had no choice but to let Tana run away after seriously injuring the three and the rest.

After all, even if more than a dozen demon kings join forces, Tana, whose strength has reached the tenth level, is still not afraid of them, who are no higher than the ninth level. The gap between them is not enough to make up with this number—of course, if Tana insists on If it is necessary to decide who is superior or who is not, then the final situation is hard to say.

Tana retreated completely, but many of her legions were left there, and what was even worse was that as the newly arrived demon kings' legions replenished their forces, the soldiers of the Cairns Empire were forced to retreat behind the border. , occupying the castle on the border, and firmly blocked the enemies ten times their number from the border.

Moreover, other demon kings on the island are also coming. Seeing that there have been more than 20 demon kings from more than ten, Tana suspects that there are more demon kings coming, and she doesn't know what is going on between them. After discussing it, the demon kings who originally wanted to fight on their own and wished that others would all die on the street have all united at this moment. It doesn't make sense. Tana has dealt with these guys for nearly a hundred years, and she knows very well that even if Cairns' army suppresses the situation, this group of arrogant The demon kings with a heart higher than the sky will not join forces with others!

But that's how it happened. The demon kings teamed up to invade the Cairns Empire. Tana couldn't maintain the line of defense under the siege of such a large number of demon kings, so she had to ask for help from the Demon King City.

At dinner time, Fatalia stretched her waist and came to the dining room, but she didn't see Ender's figure. She raised her eyebrows and looked at the maid beside her, "Where's the father?"

The maid replied: "His Majesty the Demon King should still be in the study, do you need me to ask?"

Fatalia touched her chin, waved her hand and said, "No, forget it, I'll go by myself—Favna, you wait here for a while, I'll be right back."

"Yes, Master."

Favna's expression remained unchanged, her eyes kept chasing Fatalia's figure until she disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Boom boom boom!

"Father? Are you inside?"

Fatalia knocked on the door of the study, and then heard Ender's voice from inside, "Is it Fatalia? Come in first."

Pushing open the door, Fatalia first saw Ender who was covered by a large pile of documents - those documents belonged to Fatalia, and at this time Ender seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes The brightness of the light was obviously a bit dimmer than usual, "What's the matter? Fatalia."

"It's okay, I'm just a little worried because you're not here at dinner time."

Fatalia stepped forward and lay down on the table, dragging her hands on her cheeks and looking at Ender, "Did something happen?"

Ender rubbed Fatalia's hairy head and sighed, "I just received news from Tana that for unknown reasons, it has been confirmed that more than [-] demon kings are united to attack the western border of the Cairns Empire, and according to reliable According to the intelligence, there are still a large number of demon troops wandering in the southern border wilderness, but their main force should still be the western border."

【|

Fatalia's pupils shrank, and she said hastily, "Wait a minute, father, you mean more than twenty demon kings unite?"

Ender nodded, "Yes, and this number is not the limit. According to Tana's estimation, there will probably be a lot of demon kings in the future. Although I am not sure whether it will be all the remaining demon kings on the island, most of them should be there. gone."

"This is really...unexpectedly bad situation."

Fatalia couldn't help but gritted her teeth. When the great changes occurred in the Cairns Empire, the demon kings on the island who were fighting independently started to unite and invade the Cairns Empire together. This situation couldn't be worse. up.

The internal environment is not stable, and foreign enemies are overwhelming the border. Many countries have collapsed like this. Now, the Cairns Empire is also facing this situation.

However, if it is an empire, it may not be unstoppable, and perhaps this can also be an opportunity.

Fatalia couldn't help but straightened up, bit her thumb subconsciously, frowned, Ender was silent for a while, and continued: "For now, reinforcements have been sent to support Tana, including four of the twelve generals. position, and also strengthened the defense of the southern border, because the northern and eastern borders are close to the sea, it is enough to carry out the necessary vigilance. I remember you mentioned in the notes you gave me that the future Cairns Empire needs to eliminate the existence of nobles, right?"

"This is it!"

Fatalia's eyes lit up, she snapped her fingers a little excitedly, and then said: "We can take advantage of this war and send a large number of nobles to the battlefield to die in order to wear down their strength, but in order to achieve this goal, It is necessary to dismantle the private army of the nobles so that they will not find out that something is wrong, so emergency transfer during war may be a good excuse..."

Seeing that Fatalia came to such an opinion only after being reminded a little, Ender nodded secretly, and then said: "Yes, that's it, in fact, I have sent letters to most of the second-generation border nobles, Get them ready to lead troops to the front."

Hearing this, Fatalia frowned and couldn't help interrupting Ender, "Wait a minute, father, are you only letting the second generation of border nobles go to the battlefield? There are no first generation of border nobles and capital nobles?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Ender was a little puzzled, and then heard Fatalia say: "Father, whether it is the second generation of border nobles or the first generation of border nobles, or the capital nobles who are extremely loyal to you, they are all nobles, even They may become your strength, so you can't just ignore their aristocratic status, they are all targets that need to be wiped out, no matter what their intentions are, the nobles will definitely become an obstacle to the advancement of the empire in the future."

Seeing Fatalia's serious expression, Ender was silent for a while, then nodded, "Okay, I understand, so from this point of view, maybe the purpose of this war no longer needs to be to repel the United Demon kings, let's start an all-out war and wipe out everyone at once."

"Father, just make a plan."

Fatalia nodded, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised a slight arc that no one else could notice.

Although the war is cruel, in a certain aspect, the war will also promote change and divert conflicts. This war may divert the attention of those nobles from the new imperial law that is being implemented, so taking this opportunity can not only weaken the strength of the nobles, By the way, it can also speed up the implementation of imperial laws and dig out their roots in one fell swoop.

Not only that, after 300 years of accumulation, the national power of the Keynesian Empire is almost equivalent to half of the magic island. Even if all the remaining demon kings resist together, their chances of winning are still low. It is foreseeable that there will be only a smooth road left to unify the magic island in the future.

Although it is a bit like a gamble, this is the best arrangement right now. The war, the all-out war that will affect the entire empire and even the magic island is a foregone conclusion, so what you can do now is to let your own strength in this war that has already begun to break out. Maximize the benefits that can be obtained.

Now that the flames of war have been ignited, let the flames help light the way forward for the Cairns Empire.

Afterwards, Fatalia and Ender discussed the pros and cons of this war over and over until late at night after dinner, and made corresponding responses to minimize losses and maximize benefits. For ideal calculations, it is still necessary to wait until the full-scale war breaks out before making a judgment.

Economy, food, people at the bottom, nobility, army, the laws of the new empire... These elements are connected together, and a single trigger will affect the whole body. In this war, it is necessary to grasp the key balance point.

But Ender is still curious about one thing: Why did the group of demon kings unite and travel thousands of miles to attack the empire?You must know that except for the Cairns Empire, almost all the other demon kings on the Demon Island practiced a reign of terror, maintaining their country with great power, and the laws they followed were nothing more than primitive laws. The system is fragile, if the Demon King who is the head of a country leaves the country for a certain period of time, their country is likely to collapse.

That is to say, those demon kings almost completely gave up their country to cause trouble for the Cairns Empire!

Although I don't know what these demon kings are thinking about their brains being kicked by a donkey, but it can be judged that there must be something wrong with their brain circuits. This kind of war that hurts eight hundred enemies and kills them all dares to be bloody Reckless past.

Not right, so wrong.

But Ende didn't have time to go to the front line in person, this kind of thing can only be left to other people to make a preliminary judgment.

And the letter he sent was also under the effect of magic, and it had been delivered to all the targets in just a few days.

"It's so fast, it seems that His Majesty the Demon King is still full of energy."

Sivis Anderson, Grand Duke of the West, was sitting in his study. On the table in front of him was an opened letter. The emblem of the Demon King City had indicated who sent the letter, and the content was very simple. Summarize To put it simply: the western border was attacked, immediately lead troops to support, and prepare for an all-out war.

Regarding the matter of the western border, he, the Grand Duke of the West, only got the news last night, and the letter from the Demon King City had arrived the next day. The speed is simply amazing.

"Oh, it won't work if you don't move around now."

Sivis yawned, his brown mane swayed slightly, his muscles that almost tore his clothes squirmed, eager to be stained with the blood of the enemy, and then he touched it with his furry paws A book on the table.

The book cover is dark, thick and huge, full of weight, and the hot gold font has already told everyone its name - Imperial Code.

To be precise, it is the New Imperial Code. The laws in it have changed greatly from the previous imperial laws. Recently, Sivis has been studying this big book that can be used as a weapon, although he is still not so familiar with the law. Sensitive, but for some reason, Sivis always felt an ominous premonition when looking at the clear and clear rules of the Imperial Code of Law.

Like floating on the surface of the sea, you can feel what seems to be hidden in the endless deep sea, but you can't perceive its true appearance, which gives Sivis a sense of unease that his neck is being clenched.

But it is a pity that although he is not sensitive to the law, he can only choose to seek help from others, such as Gord Walker, who is also in the west and is a second-generation border nobleman. Although their forms and styles are different, Sivis still believes The hound ancient orc will not betray the west.

Under his explanation, Sivis more or less understood part of the knowledge, and thus came to the conclusion that the law would have some impact on him, but it would not hurt his bones.

Compared to this, it seems that it is the holiday time of the colleges again. The colleges scattered all over the empire are about to usher in a unified holiday. Students who have worked hard for a semester can rest.

And the Xinghai Academy opened by Demon King Ende seems to be officially opening at the end of the holiday.

Sivis' eyes couldn't help but squint. According to the previous concept, knowledge is noble and expensive. Ordinary families can't afford to send their children to school, so that books have almost become the exclusive property of the nobles. This, knowledge or books, has been deified and described as a luxury that only those with noble blood are qualified to read, and it is the unique enjoyment of nobles.

As the apex of the nobles of the Cairns Empire, Sivis didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but the Xinghai Academy opened by Ender almost blasphemed the sanctity of knowledge in his eyes. of?When can common people intervene in the enjoyment of nobles?

However, due to Ender's big fist, Sivis only dared to complain in his heart. He believed that there were many nobles who had the same idea as him. It was a pity that in the Cairns Empire, no one could disobey the will of the devil Ender.

"Hey, let's see how many people we have to bring."

Sivis combed his mane, then picked up the information about the Western Front that Ender had given him and the information he had sent a special person to obtain, and then compared them repeatedly to judge how much effort he needed to make—this is It is also the habit of the nobles. After all, as nobles, they rarely have the opportunity to fight in person. Basically, the guards around them are enough to deal with the enemy. For the nobles, the battlefield is a good place to be gilded.

This is still the case for the martial Cairns Empire, but I don't know what happened to the nobles who have been passed down for a long time on the mainland.

"Since it's an all-out war, let's bring more people and try to get as much military exploits and fame as possible."

Sivis pinched the fleshy ball in his palm, his eyes flickering coldly.

Chapter 60 Patty Comes Home

Today's weather is not good, but it is just right for them.

The noisy wind blows from west to east, and thick clouds cover the sky and the double moons. Only occasionally, the moonlight will pass through the gaps in the clouds and give the earth a ray of light. The whole world is almost dark.

And in the endless darkness, a small group of shadow demons was sneaking close to the fortress in front of them. For them who were very adaptable to the dark environment, such an environment without light was just right, and their innate abilities could be brought into full play.

The humanoid creatures, almost covered in black mist, slowly and cautiously pushed aside the grass in front of them, suppressing the fluctuation of magic power in their bodies, in order to sneak into the castle in front of them.

Although the expansion of the Cairns Empire is very fast, the border forts are often built in a hurry, but even so, the fort is still a huge obstacle that cannot be ignored. Relying on it and the many magics imposed on it, Tana and Her army can last so long here.

The damage caused by a frontal breakthrough is too great, that's why they appear here. The shadow fiends want to sneak into the castle and destroy the castle's defenses from the inside. The most important thing is to close the big shield. Without the big shield, they Even if the great magic exerted here is blocked by people of the twelfth general level, it can still cause enough damage to the fortress. After all, it is often easier to destroy than to protect, and there are many people on their side.

1000 meters, 500 meters, 300 meters...

Soon, soon.

Looking at the city wall that was already in front of him, Shadow Demon almost felt his non-existent heart beating, and he took another step forward.

Then a feeling of being electrified made him tremble.

Looking at the flames on the city wall, Shadow Demon was full of despair. He knew very well what it felt like just now: detecting magic.

Fireballs like raindrops quickly covered the plain in front of the fortress. The mages, who were not sure how many enemies there were, chose to wipe out all threats with absolute firepower. For a while, the momentum was comparable to the meteor rain of ninth-level magic.

Boom boom boom!

The fireball exploded beside him, but the Shadow Fiend didn't even dare to release magic to resist it, because once he released magic, it would be equivalent to telling the enemy that there was someone here, and it was undoubtedly an act of courting death, and occasionally there were a few flashes of magic on the plain , and then these shining places were set on fire by more magic, fireballs, stalagmites, lightning, ice guns... a large amount of magic almost gave the land aside.
