Warhammer in a box

Chapter 20: Visitors from the Empire
As the celebration came to an end, Zhang Heng felt that it was time for him to show off.

"My loyal believers~"

As Zhang Heng's voice rang out, everyone present actually heard Zhang Heng's voice. This was because their faith in Zhang Heng had reached the standard.

In the dark sky, a golden figure is slowly appearing in the eyes of the believers, as if a god is observing the world they live in from a higher dimension.

Many people who heard Zhang Heng's voice for the first time knelt on the ground excitedly and prayed to Zhang Heng involuntarily. How many people in the entire empire could truly witness the divine manifestation?

"You have done well. You have not been afraid of sacrifice, and you have persisted in fighting and defending the city I gave you. Now, I will give you the rewards you deserve for being outstanding. Ludwig, Gulman, and Bourne, come and accept your rewards!"

Ludwig and Gullmann walked out of the crowd with excitement, while Bourne looked incredulous. How could a new recruit like him be qualified to receive such an honor?

"Hey! Boy! Go quickly! It's the emperor's reward! I'm so envious!" Ferrer said as he pushed Bourne out.

Looking at the three people standing in a row, Zhang Heng continued: "Ludwig, I grant you indestructible power!"

Zhang Heng added Ludwig's skill points to the full body plate armor skill. As the skill points were consumed, Ludwig was once again surrounded by golden light. This power continued to strengthen his physical strength. Until the golden light dissipated, Ludwig felt that his physical strength had doubled!
And the original injuries were recovering quickly.

"Gullman, I grant you unstoppable power!" As a cavalryman, Gullman, Zhang Heng directly added points to the fatal charge. The same golden light flowed. Although he did not have the same intuitive feeling as Ludwig, Gullman knew that if he rode on the warhorse and charged again, the damage he could cause would definitely be much greater than before.

"Bourne, I grant you the power of precision!" The same golden light flashed, and Bourne felt that a lot of shooting knowledge had inexplicably appeared in his mind, as if he had been trained countless times.

After the three of them finished adding points, they said to Zhang Heng together: "Praise you, thank you for your gift!"

Under the envious gazes of the others, Zhang Heng ended his pretense ceremony.

Zhang Heng outside the box also let out a sigh: "I haven't practiced much in normal times, and I always feel that this pretense is a little lacking, it's still not cool and mysterious enough! It seems that I have to find a chance to go somewhere for further study."

"Ludwig, your mission is not yet complete. Countless fellow human beings are still waiting for you to save them. Find out everything around you and unite all the forces that can be united!"

Zhang Heng gave the next order to Ludwig. Now the population of Terra was still too small. The population limited his ability to interfere in the world in the box, and also indirectly restricted the development of Terra City.

The medieval world ended in destruction. When facing those overwhelming and even immortal enemies at the end of the world, Zhang Heng believed that even if he could use his power of dimensionality reduction to crush the enemies infinitely, he could not change the ending of this world.

After all, Shilan, created by the ancient saints, and even the gods native to this world also possessed powerful strength, but they still lost in the end.

He must change the original plot of Warhammer: Medieval Wars and unite or directly control as many forces as possible in the Order camp in order to have a chance of survival.

Zhang Heng began to think about the next direction. He was near Stangat, which was located in the Sol Territory of the empire's twelve electoral territories in the game. To the north was the Ivy Territory, and to the east of the Ivy Territory was Sylvania, the territory of the Undead Vampire Duke.

Vampires and other troublemakers must be killed sooner or later. If it weren't for them, the end of the world might not come so soon. But Zhang Heng doesn't have the guts to fight with endless undead creatures. To the south is the territory of the dwarves. The dwarves, the human allies in the mountains, are also targets that can be won over. Dealing with these dwarves is much more comfortable than scheming against others. These dwarves are definitely objects of trade. Directly obtaining some of the dwarves' advanced war weapons can also temporarily make up for Zhang Heng's lack of faith.

As a human being, the one he needs to deal with most is the Human Empire. In fact, Zhang Heng is still a little nervous. After all, a religion that suddenly emerges is equivalent to stealing faith. The Sigma Sect and the Church of Ulric in the empire probably will not tolerate such a thing.

But fortunately, the empire is now in turmoil, and the electors are still scheming against each other. Although Karl is a powerful emperor, the beastmen and orcs in the countless forests in the empire, as well as the harassment from the Norse in the north make him busy. He probably has no energy to take care of the small town of Terra now.

To the west is Phaidolf, the capital of Sol Territory. This is the human force most likely to come into contact with him. In name, Terra still belongs to the Elector of Phaidolf.

There is also a character that Zhang Heng wants to win over, and that is the current Supreme Grand Master of the Empire's Mage Academy, the Dean of the Golden Academy, the Empire's strongest mage, the metal mage Bayersazar Gelt!

He uses metal spells, and one person can change the situation of the entire battle. Zhang Heng knows his character. He is obsessed with gold, fascinated by spells, and immersed in technology. His Gold Academy is also the research and development center of imperial technology. For example, almost all new gunpowder comes from here.

He also has a high status in the plot. He used terrifying magic to build a high wall, temporarily blocking the later vampires and Norsca.

"Oh, it's difficult. We are still short of people!"

Early the next morning, Gurman's knights and teams of soldiers rushed to different directions of Terra City, one to dispel more war fog, and the other to find refugees hiding in the forest.

You know, there are many villages throughout the entire Thor territory, but whenever orcs or beastmen wreak havoc, they will hide deep in the jungle or go to big cities, so it is certain that there are definitely a large number of refugees hidden in the surrounding forests.

As long as the fog of war dissipates, they will have nowhere to hide no matter where they hide. No matter whether we use soft or hard tactics, we must bring them back first. We will provide them with food, accommodation and assignments. Even if they are reluctant, Zhang Heng doesn't believe that they will not be tempted after they come.

This is a purely high-paying job.

However, what Zhang Heng did not expect was that when he asked the little man to explore the surroundings, Lord Sol actually sent a team of scouts to Terra City.

It turned out that the mayor who had escaped before successfully arrived in Phaidol and told the Elector of Thorland about the attack of the orc army. The Elector was also afraid that the orc clan would develop to an uncontrollable point, so he hurriedly sent troops to check it out.

No one could have imagined that a small town could withstand the attack of the orcs. The Elector was even ready to pay the price and asked Gelt to take action to directly eliminate these orcs.

When the Thor-led scouts arrived at Terra, they were stunned. Where were the orcs? Where was the orc army? They were so cautious and ready to fight at any time.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm not seeing things, am I? Those on the city wall are clearly us humans. Could it be that the mayor is lying?"

"No, no, look, there are still traces of blood on the surrounding land, and there are many arrows stuck on the city wall. This must have been the scene of a battle!"
