Chapter 372 The Catastrophe of the Jeppen Empire

Just when Clint's magic was about to be completed, a whistling sound suddenly sounded above his head. 【】At this time, the magician is at the critical moment of casting a spell, and has no extra energy to take care of what is happening around him.Instead, the two palace guards standing behind Clint and responsible for protecting him reacted in time, drew their weapons and stabbed fiercely in the air.

It was Roger who jumped down with a roar.Seeing a magician casting magic on Sophia, he certainly wouldn't let it happen, and jumped off the Griffin's back without hesitation.

The two palace guards originally had bronze-level strength, which was enough to deal with ordinary enemies.However, what they were facing was Roger, who was at an advanced silver level, so naturally they could only end up in a sad end.

Roger was already holding the sword in his hand while he was in mid-air, and stabbed down several times with enough fighting spirit, turning the two palace guards into corpses in the blink of an eye.Before his feet hit the ground, Roger flew up and kicked Clint hard on the vest.

Roger exerted all his strength on this kick, how could a weak magician bear it?Clint didn't even yell, and fell headfirst from the high balcony.In a panic, Clint lost control of the magic elements, and a large number of magic elements that had gathered had a terrible explosion in an instant, directly blasting the magician in mid-air to pieces, and even blasted a big hole in the tallest tower of the palace. The balcony that Roger was on was also precarious, and after shaking a few times, it slumped to the ground.

If an ordinary person were on the balcony, he would undoubtedly fall all the way to the ground and be smashed to pieces like the upper part of the tower.However, Roger is definitely not an ordinary person now. Before the balcony hit the ground, he had a chance to jump, and then landed firmly on the stable ground.

At this time, the explosion caused by the out-of-control magic also alarmed other palace guards in the palace, and these heavily armed guys ran out one after another to figure out what happened.However, the palace guards soon discovered that there were a surprising number of unidentified enemies in the palace.These enemies lined up in a neat formation and launched a charge, one of which was difficult to deal with.

The gates and walls of the palace were intact, and the palace guards in charge of sentry did not even have time to raise the alarm.This made the palace guards very puzzled, how did so many enemies sneak into the palace?But the palace guards had no time to think so much, because Roger had ordered his soldiers to attack.

Compared with the heavy spearmen and half-armored swordsmen under Roger, the palace guards of the Jeppen Empire have a slight advantage in strength.However, the advantages of the palace guards in this regard are extremely limited, which is easily offset by the superior numbers and equipment of Roger's soldiers.

A desperate battle soon unfolded in the palace square.Roger is certain to occupy the palace, while the palace guards will defend the king to the death. The two sides refuse to give in to each other, and each wants to destroy the other as soon as possible.

At the same time, the battle outside the palace is also in full swing.Compared with Roger's side, the battle in Yisi City was much smoother.Most of the enemy troops were intimidated by Sophia's dragon power, and there was no way to effectively defend against the attacks of Roger's soldiers.To put it bluntly, there is a one-sided massacre going on in the city of Iss at this time, Roger's soldiers have already wiped out half of the enemy army, and if the current situation continues, the other half of the enemy will be wiped out soon .

During the initial chaos, Roger's forces had managed to take control of the walls and gates of the city of Ith.At this time, all the gates of the city were closed, completely blocking the connection between the inside and outside of the city.The residents of the city never imagined that the city wall that was originally used to protect the city has now become an obstacle to their escape.The residents of the whole city were locked in the city and became lambs to be slaughtered by Roger.

But at present, Roger has no time to deal with the residents of the city, he has more important things to deal with.Now that the general situation of the battle outside the palace had been decided, Roger quickly mobilized a thousand-man team into the palace for reinforcements.

Roger was already on equal footing with the palace guards, and now a thousand new troops have joined, which immediately tilted the balance of victory to Roger's side.The palace guards fell one by one, and Roger's soldiers were getting closer and closer to the majestic building in the center of the palace.In the end, the soldiers under Roger finally rushed into the bedroom where Mubasa IV lived, and began to search for the whereabouts of the opposing king.

At the same time, soldiers outside the palace also took control of the entire city of Yis.Almost all the thousands of soldiers stationed in the city of Yis died in battle, only a few of them threw away their weapons flexibly and mingled among the civilians in the city.Hundreds of people have sneaked into tens of thousands of people, and it is certainly not easy to find them out.However, Roger didn't care about the hundreds of deserters in this area. As long as these guys don't make trouble, it's okay to let them go.

After completing the task, Sophia also changed back into a human form and came to the palace, and said to Roger with some dissatisfaction: "The battle outside the palace has long since ended, why haven't you finished here?"

At this time, Roger's soldiers had already searched the palace of Mubasa IV, and captured many palace servants, princesses and princes, but they had not yet found the real owner.However, I believe that it is only a matter of time before Mubasa IV is caught, so Roger's mood is already very relaxed at this time.

"Hey, the palace guards are quite tricky." Roger replied with a smile on his face: "With you sitting outside, the battle will naturally go much smoother!"

Sophia took advantage of Roger's indeterminate flattery, she gave him a coquettish look and said, "You still have some vision, and you know how powerful I am!"

"That's that, without your help, I wouldn't be able to take down the city of Iss." Roger said with a smile on Sophia's slender waist, "I want to thank you very much tonight!"

"I hate it!" Although the dragon girl said so on the surface, it can be seen from Sophia's pretty face with a rippling smile that she is still very interested in Roger's "thank you" at night.

While the two were chatting and laughing in low voices, a team of half-armored swordsmen had escorted a young man to Roger.This year's man was dressed gorgeously, with a big beard and slightly curly hair. Although he couldn't hide the panic on his face, he still tried his best to straighten his body and maintain the only dignity he had.

"Report your name." Luo Jie put away his smile, and said coldly to the young man: "Undead under my sword!"

"I am Alexander Mubasa IV, the king of the Jeppen Empire!" The man said solemnly this year: "I demand the same treatment as my status!"

"You are Mubasa IV?" Roger sneered while observing the expressions of the other prisoners: "Okay, I will give you the treatment in line with your status, come here, drag him out and chop him up!"

Roger noticed that as soon as he spoke, the faces of all the captives he had captured changed drastically, and his heart was secretly concerned, knowing that this young man was indeed Mubasa IV.The young man didn't expect that the nobleman from the Thorne country would order him to be killed after he had already revealed his identity. His face turned pale, and he wanted to say a few words but couldn't.

Roger's soldiers didn't care about that many, they stepped forward to escort Mubasa IV and walked out.Roger smiled slightly, stopped the soldier's behavior, and said lightly to Mubasa IV: "Your Majesty, I have offended you! I have wronged you these few days, so let my soldiers protect you. There is still something to trouble you in a few days. and you."

Frightened by Roger just now, Mubasa lost his previous courage, but turned his head pale, not daring to meet Roger's gaze again.

To be honest, Roger is not willing to kill Mubasa, the kingdom of the hostile country, if he is brought back to the city of Mandos, what a credit it will be?As a soldier under Roger, all the members of the royal family headed by Mubasa were detained separately, and they must be careful not to let them contact the outside world.

These captives were very valuable in Roger's eyes, and each of them had two big golden characters on their heads: military merit, so Roger was not willing to kill them, and he would never let them go.

In addition to these royal family members, all kinds of rare treasures in the palace have also become Roger's trophies.Biejpen is located in a barren desert, but it is still a country after all. Treasures such as gold, silver and jewelry are naturally indispensable. There are also many magic materials such as magic crystals and mithril, all of which have become Roger's spoils of war.If it weren't for Roger's castle warehouse with a huge capacity, there is really no way to take all these treasures away.

While looting valuables in the palace, Roger's soldiers began looting everything of value throughout the city.Roger divided the city of Iss into several areas, allowing his soldiers to carry out operations in a planned manner, and not to let go of anything of value.As a city with a population of nearly 10, the scale of Yisi City is really not small.Even if Roger's soldiers worked day and night, it took several days to complete this difficult job.

While searching for loot, Roger also urged the citizens of the city to dismantle the palace to pieces, and the removed wood and stones were all necessary materials for the construction of the castle.

But Roger didn't want to waste the space in the castle warehouse for these things, so he simply used these materials to build the castle building.Considering the current needs, Roger decided to build a first-level stable and a first-level alchemy laboratory at the same time.The former can train chain mail cavalry to train more powerful units for Roger's army, while the latter can produce various primary potions, which is a good way to increase income.

As the capital of the Jeppen Empire, Iss is also a very wealthy city. After a few days, Roger's harvest is really amazing.Even if he had a castle warehouse with a huge capacity, he couldn't hold so many spoils.Roger of Nai can only ask the castle hub to count the harvest first, and give priority to keeping those more valuable and useful items, while the less valuable and useless items are all piled up outside the city and set on fire to burn them.

For the Jeppen Empire, this time it was really a terrible catastrophe.The capital was ransacked, and even the imperial palace was demolished, which is not much different from being destroyed.But Roger doesn't want to let it go, he has more ambitious plans to realize.
