Chaos Crown

Chapter 217, Khorne Festival

Zambia, the newer of the kingdoms.

This country was established after the establishment of the Valley Calendar. At first, it was immigrated by the human Jondas from across the Meteor Sea in the south. The reason why they chose to settle here at first was that there was high-quality wood here, which could be used to manufacture high-quality sailing ships.

But of course, humans’ deforestation of the forest quickly aroused the elves’ vigilance, and the two sides began to confront each other. The elves accused humans of destroying nature and turning the land yellow, while humans believed that these elves had no right to interfere in human internal affairs. Anyway, the forest There are so many, what does it matter if you cut a little?
In this way, human beings went their own way, and the conflict between the two sides became more and more acute. Until 884 of the Valley Calendar, a large-scale conflict between humans and elves in Zambia finally broke out.

Humanity, of course, failed miserably.

After all, the elves are an interstellar-level civilization. They are just unwilling to start a war because of their good nature, which doesn't mean they can't fight.

The defeat of this war caused Jondas to abandon the colony.

However, it was precisely because of the abandonment of the suzerain that Zambia developed instead, losing the control of the suzerain and the requirement of a large amount of logging. Humans in this area relied on farming, grazing and commerce, and the introduction of craftsmen, gradually forming the country's embryonic form.

In the end, in 913 of the Valley Calendar, Raven Duke Saravel successfully unified the territory east of Cormyr and established Zambia.

At this time, a large number of mineral veins in the northern Moon Sea area were discovered. Duke Raven keenly sensed business opportunities. The elves set aside a road in the forest for Zambia, and the route can be chosen by the elves.

After a series of coercion and temptation, coupled with Duke Raven's threat that "our war will never end", the elves were forced to accept this proposal.

As a result, Zambia prospered, and the country began to act as a transfer station for trade between the north and the south of the country. Merchants gradually became the ruling class in Zambia. In Zambia, the political power is for business. They usually abide by commercial contracts, even if they tear up the contract. Compensation for breach of contract will be paid, but only if the business contract is sufficiently complete - Zambians will not let go of any loopholes and ambiguities in the contract.

Zambians are chasing money to a pathological level. Making money, doing business, and buying luxury goods are the meaning of life for most Zambians. Here, regime corruption, bribery, and black gold transactions are not only not a shame, they are even considered is something that is openly encouraged and appreciated (though Zambians have a strong respect for the law and are reluctant to do anything illegal).

This is an expanding commercial country. In recent years, there have been frequent disputes with Cormyr due to border conflicts. Therefore, when Son of God Bane invited the Zambian army to help resolve the "civil strife", Zambia naturally readily went there.

The Zambians are very confident in their army. These soldiers are all professional soldiers with generous salaries and long-term training. They may not have the sense of honor like the Purple Dragon Knights, but they are all cold-blooded killers.

They are ready.

In the dark night, merchant ships entered the port, and the Zambian army in black robes and black armor. The Zambian elite under the command of Grand Duke Samaron skillfully rushed into the port area. According to the agreement, their attack will be launched in the early morning, covering the entire city. The dark clouds and darkness covered everything tightly, and the continuous battles in the city made it impossible for the burning Suzar to notice the secret landing of this group of troops.

There were more than 500 of them, each of whom was well-trained. More than 100 of them rushed to the port first, and their heavy military boots stepped on the wet wooden boards, making creaking noises.

According to intelligence, the city wall of the dock area was built on a stone foundation, made of hardwood, and there were guard towers.

Normally, Cormyr's troops were all standing on the city wall.Hundreds of dock guards patrolled behind the battlements, and any enemy who tried to break through the gates leading to the palace would be caught in the kill zone set by spearmen and archers.

In the slums on the outskirts of Susal, those narrow streets and crowded dilapidated houses constitute a defensive advantage that one man guards the gate and one man cannot open.

The Navy Pier is centered on the fortress built of shining black marble, and the terrain is more open.This meant that the attackers had to withstand crossfire from the archers on the roof.

However, when the Zambians boarded the pier, they found nothing there.

No people, no cargo, no troops, and no alarms.

Nothing at all.

The Zambians didn't understand. They formed an formation under the leadership of the commander and cautiously tested their surroundings.

"There is nothing in the desert." Far away, Aaron stood on a small building, and he murmured expressionlessly: "There is nothing in the desert, and nothing is what people want."

He was about to start a sacrifice, and even though it would kill thousands of people, this was not the time to be merciless!
When the fingertips touched the ground, a large chaotic ritual circle had emerged on the ground of the dock area, and a blood-red giant skull rose from the circle!

"What? What is this?" The Zambian army looked puzzled at the two-meter-diameter skulls rising up in front of them. Some even tried to touch them with their hands.

In the next second, the skull exploded on the spot, and the flames and skull fragments directly blasted the bodies of these curious people into dust!Immediately afterwards, groups of Khorne vampires appeared in the magic circle!

They had ruby-red skin—a color that would please their masters—and they had humanoid bodies, bestial faces, elongated skulls with horns, and pupilless eyes that burned with rage—eyes that would Painful to think of Lord of War.

They and their muscular limbs are notorious for their ferocious aggression and ferocious desire to fight - they are unstoppable, and those who stand in their way will be torn to pieces by their terrible strength.

The Hellblade in the hands of the vampire immediately drank the flesh and blood of the Zambians. These jagged iron swords reflected the will of Khorne. As long as they were injured by the Hellblade, the Zambians' bodies would immediately deflate. These weapons cut gold and iron, and immediately blew a hurricane of death on the Zambians!
This is an enemy that the Zambians have never seen before!Armor is crumbled to pieces at the hands of these Khorne demons, and the vampires grow stronger with every human blood they drink.

"Hold on! Hold on!" the Zambian commander yelled angrily. He ordered the soldiers to join forces. At most, this veteran soldier had only fought against rebel nobles and forest monsters. The enemy in front of him was far beyond his cognition. , They desperately found that the surprise attack that should have stunned the Suzars entangled them instead, and when they saw those three-meter-high armored demons rushing towards them, most of them chose to run for their lives. Anyone who resisted was instantly killed by the blade of hell.

"Shoot!" A group of hardcore crossbowmen gathered under the command of the commander. They lined up and pulled the trigger at the Khorne vampires relying on their physical instincts developed during long training. The attack made the vampires full of energy, and the madness intensified. The elite guards who followed took out black kerosene from the cabin, and the burning fire finally stopped the group of vampires a little.

But before they could recover, new enemies appeared in the magic circle.

Riding a flaming steel bull, wearing heavy armor and bearing the eight-pillar emblem on his head, the Khorne Steel Bull Knight has appeared!
These steel bull knights went straight through the flames as if they were not afraid of pain, and the Zambian soldiers who formed the shield wall with fierce impacts were smashed and fled in a panic.

The bloody battle ax in the steel bull knight's hand cut down all those who tried to stop them. The ferocious steel bull stepped on the roadblock hastily set up to stop them, and rushed into the line of guarding spearmen, continuing to attack.

More and more enemies were involved in the massacre, and those demons who wanted to win the favor of Khorne desperately drove their men to the dock. They tear to shreds.

The fleeing enemies began to trample and crush each other, and the rain of arrows fell like a waterfall, but it couldn't shake the brass armor of the steel bull rider.The archers, seeing their allies being slaughtered helplessly by armored demon riders, panicked and tried to flee.

However, here is the pier, where can they hide?
Soon, the dock area was filled with blood, and the Khorne vampires and steel bull knights who had harvested enough put away their heads and returned with a full load.

The dock area fell into deathly silence again, and a new transport ship appeared on the sea level of Longhu Lake in the distance.

New head!New sacrifice!Fresh blood!

The sacrificial ceremony of Khorne continued, and Aaron was also talking to General Powell in the barracks in the dock area.

"I'm sorry to bother you, General Powell. If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency Mannacorn and His Royal Highness Duke Marelli should have greeted you before, let the Zambians enter the capital."

Aaron, Gordon, and Fiorena stood in the general's office, and said to the commander-in-chief of the dock guard who looked a little flustered.

"Yes... that's right..." General Powell is a middle-aged man about 40 years old. He looked at Gordon behind Aaron and thought to himself, didn't your father inform me of this matter? ?
"As you can see, Suzar is burning. Just at the banquet just now, it is a recognized fact that His Royal Highness Duke Casper conspired to assassinate His Royal Highness, and Her Royal Highness has appointed me to handle all matters on her behalf. "

Aaron took out the ring medal obtained from Alice Searle, and showed it to General Powell: "Now, who should I stand on, needless to say?"

"Now, the evidence that Duke Caspar colluded with the devil to attack the city is conclusive. General Powell, please focus on the overall situation." Aaron pointed to the large Khorne sacrificial circle in the distance outside the window: "All Zambians who landed, you We just need to guide them to the vicinity of the magic circle, and the next thing will naturally be handled by those demons for you, all you have to do is watch, guide, and watch again."

"..." The muscles on General Powell's face kept twitching.

The duke, the princess, the devil, the devil, the Zambians, who is the murderer?Who brought this disaster and plunged the Pearl by the Long Lake into a raging fire?
He couldn't make any judgments, but Duke Marelli had indeed told him before that the Zambians were let in.

Just when General Powell was hesitating, Gordon, the grandson of Duke Marelli, stood up and said, "Bowie, you are not to blame for this incident. This is completely a grandpa's misjudgment of the state of the kingdom."

"Really?" Sure enough, General Powell hesitated. Gordon was the eldest grandson of Duke Marelli, and his words carried too much weight.

"Really, please do help." Gordon continued: "Bowie, have you forgotten our friendship?"

The expression on General Powell's face changed back and forth, and finally nodded slowly: "I...I see."

"Thank you!"

In this way, under the command of the ghost Powell, ship after ship of Zambian foreign troops landed in the dock area. Under the guidance of the dock guards, they stepped into the Khorne circle again and again in the dark night. among.

No life.

…………

In the Dragon Knight Club, Alice Searle was still sitting on the bed, and the Queen Regent's eyes were on fire. She wrapped herself in a quilt and listened to the report of her subordinates.

"It's not good, Your Highness! The marines are dispatched!"

"Your Highness, news from Commander Yuri Bakov that the devil army is besieging the palace!"

"Your Highness, the major churches have responded to our appeal and sent troops, but they are unwilling to participate in this civil strife. At present, the priority is to eliminate the devil."

"Your Highness, the teleportation spell has failed. Kaspar and the others have interfered with the teleportation. We cannot get reinforcements through teleportation!"

Messages were sent in from outside one by one, and Alice Searle calmly issued one order after another.

At this time, the calm, domineering and dictatorial side of the regent princess, who belongs to the soldier, was revealed. She was not frightened by the terrible situation in front of her, even though she was forced to be an enemy of her brother-in-law because of this incident, and was locked by Aaron The brand of soul and body, but the princess regent remained calm all the time.

"Order the palace guards to activate all defensive facilities, and be sure to hold out for enough time."

"Notify Battlemage Academy, Vangda Hester and Charlotte, we need support!"

"Order all the purple dragon knights to dispatch."

"What is Aaron doing, hasn't he come back yet?"

Alice Searle's calmness also greatly affected everyone in the Dragon Knight Club. Everyone was also conquered by the princess's calm look, and gradually calmed down from the panic.

As Alice Searle predicted, as long as they persevere, as long as they persist until dawn, victory will definitely belong to them!
Aaron's cousin Robert came in, and he knelt in front of Alice Searle: "Your Highness, there is an Anaheim private army gathering outside the city. According to Aaron's instructions, the half-orc Doherty has brought Let his people solve this problem."

"Aaron...you guys, how many things are you hiding from me?!" The princess regent's eyes were like blazing steel knives, and Robert was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe out. Under the terrifying dragon's power, his cousin supported him Unable to stop, he desperately lowered his head and told the princess about Aaron's plan.

"Half-orc Doherty leaves the city from Quentin Bridge? But isn't it going to pass through the purple dragon knight's defense zone?" Alice Searle immediately judged the possible result: "Ian Hartson will let a group of half-orcs in the middle of the night through here?"

"It will," said Robert hastily flatteringly.

"why?"

"Because the chief inspector accepted Aaron's gift of 500 gold lion coins."

"...Aaron!!! When this matter is over, you will be locked in a cage and ravaged by me!!!" The princess was furious.

But she couldn't care less at this time, after telling Robert to get out, she raised the purple dragon ring on her right hand.

"Mother? Can you hear me?"

"Something went wrong, brother-in-law... was bewitched by others, colluded with the devil and wanted to rebel."

"Please contact Kelben-His Excellency Black Rod immediately, we need his help."

Queen Mother Phil Farrell sighed softly on the other end of the ring, expressing that she knew about it, and broke off contact.

Five minutes later, the entire Suzar saw a beam of light rise from the palace and shine in the dark clouds.

A dragon emblem pattern emerged from the beam of light.

The kingdom of heaven, the edge of the crystal wall system, the supreme sky, where countless terrifying existences exist.

A super giant dragon with a length of 35 meters suddenly sensed something, he turned around, and behind him was a young dragon with a length of about 8 meters, which obviously had a strong connection with him.

Both giant dragons exude terrifying power, especially the super giant dragons. They are covered with scales that are as shining as tiny diamonds. The difference is that the scales of super giant dragons are not so dazzling and automatically refract light. The scales of the younger dragons are more gorgeous and shining in black and purple.

"It seems that there is an interesting message, an invitation from Black Rod." The super giant dragon spread its wings: "Go and see? Egil?"

"Didn't you say that you want to find your own treasure?"

"Hmph~Of course~" The young giant dragon flicked its tail, its claws circling in the void with great pride: "The weak splash is worthless in front of the huge waves, and it hinders me, Egil, from taking it!" The enemies of my own treasures will all be crushed!"
