Throne of the North.

Chapter 315: Changes in the Spiritual Panel, Divine Unit - Taisu

In an instant, all the great terror disappeared, and the world around them became naturally magnificent again.

At the same time, the spiritual panel emerged.

【Spirituality: 38500】

[Spiritual Blessing: Blessing from the Deer Spirit...]

[Divinity: Dusk]

It changed. The divine blessing turned into a spiritual blessing, and at the same time, the title of divinity also appeared. Ryan looked at his spiritual panel and didn't understand why such a change occurred.

It has changed, so has it. Ryan can feel that the blessing is still a blessing. Besides, the power of the blessing before consumed spirituality, so there is nothing strange about it.

The key lies in the new divinity that emerges at the end.

Dusk... Ryan had heard this word from the pagan beliefs of the Andara Kingdom not long ago. Seeing it again now, he naturally associated the two together.

"It should be the same evening."

Ryan looked at the handwriting of dusk and could roughly feel that it contained three parts of Taisu.

Tai Su, he suddenly understood the meaning of this unfamiliar word. It was the unit of divine origin, similar to the units of quantity such as "piece" and "head", but different. Tai Su represented some kind of ultimate origin. For example, the three Tai Su that Ryan now possessed belonged to dusk.

There is also a gap between Tai Su and Tai Su, but now he doesn't know what the specific gap is.

"It seems to be of no use."

Ryan didn't feel how to release and utilize the Divine Twilight, so he could only put it aside.

"But...Surtur, let's use this brief description to describe the great being in the dusk. This should be the one who descended on the Kingdom of Andara."

In that book, Ryan got a series of long names that took a full two minutes to read quickly, but just like a title, a few short words could be used to call out the name, anyway, it was not a real summoning.

Ryan's previous speculation changed again.

If the coming of dusk was caused by the old king, then now, there seems to be a change.

On this land, there were many lives that worshipped and sacrificed to the great existence that fell from heaven, the creatures in the flames, and led the dusk.

He is not alone. Beneath this vast land, there are His believers.

Therefore, there might be some extraordinary creatures under Hernan's command.

Judging from the fact that the brutal goblin had the power to crush the golden knight, the other extraordinary creatures will not be too weak either.

As a result, the situation in the Andara Kingdom...

"If the Holy See doesn't have more means to pay, I'm afraid it will hold on."

If they were really caught by the alien gods, it would definitely be a huge blow to the dignity of the Holy See, and it would even affect the entire south.

Moreover, I am afraid it will not be what the old king wishes.

On this day, Ryan had a new perspective on the situation in the Andara Kingdom. It was also on this day that Grand Duke McReynolds sent a team of griffins here.

"We are here on behalf of the Grand Duke, and we would like to borrow a few magicians and alchemists from the nobles of the empire."

Under the suppression of the Holy See, all life on the extraordinary path, led by magicians, was suppressed. Only in the Empire were there many extraordinary lives.

As for why there is suppression, faith may be only one reason, but more importantly, why don’t you go to the Vatican when something happens, but go to them instead?
If a problem cannot be solved, then the Holy See will not solve it. If it cannot be solved, then that is the will of God, and you cannot ask others to solve it.

But now it’s different. Grand Duke McReynolds needs a large number of military defense facilities in his territory, and those world crossbows from the elven kingdom in the Unicorn Fortress in the south also need to be repaired and maintained.

The Carlos family members could not be used, and since he did not have any, he could only borrow from the nobles of the empire.

As a gesture of sincerity, the Griffin Knight brought a map.

"We have arranged for slaves to connect the roads. Your road can be directly connected to the Fragoso Bridge. From here..."

The Griffin Knight was also somewhat shocked by the scale and neatness of the road, and said:
"There's only a short stretch of about ten miles left."

Ryan said that he would pass the contract to the nobles, and left the Griffin Knight to wait for the result. At the same time, he arranged for a group of people from the Frozen Territory to ask them for advice on the breeding of Warcraft.

The Frozen Territory not only has a griffin, but also some Warcraft cubs, but there is currently no team specifically to deal with these little guys.

Ryan asked his butler Beard to train a group of people, who are now ready for use.

The combination of ten griffins and five knights made Ryan realize that the war in the Andara Kingdom might be imminent.

Sure enough, Legion Commander Farrell, who had been in frequent communication with the emperor recently, came again and urged how long the road would take.

"It will take at least a month. If Commander Farrell is willing to let the Violent Elephant Corps bring a batch of stones to fill the gap, you can go there now."

Ryan suggested that the powerful elephants should drag a large amount of construction materials to fill the potholes ahead. Perhaps because Farrell had received a lot of urgent orders and considered that this road would also bring him some profits, he agreed.

Just like that, on the second day, deafening roars came from the Flying Wing Canyon. The Legion of Violent Elephants, covered with weapons and tetanus-stricken, walked out of the Flying Wing Canyon and stepped on the cold snow of the North Wind Province.

Even the violent elephants became much quieter in the cold ice and snow.

North Wind Avenue, this is the name Ryan gave to this road. It starts from Lingdu City in the North Wind Province and eventually connects to the territory of Viscount Fragoso of the Andara Kingdom.

At this moment, many slaves standing outside the roads on both sides looked at the tall and violent elephants walking on the road in awe. They were ferocious and terrifying, and their casual steps walking on North Wind Avenue brought unimaginable deterrence and oppression to everyone.

They needed to raise their heads to see the knight riding on the back of the elephant, but most of the time, no slave dared to raise his head, so all that was left in front of them was the elephant's belly, which was as thick as a city wall and covered with countless sharp iron weapons.

The footsteps were heavy, and even the Northern war horses were a little afraid of these violent elephants. Every time they got too close, the horses under the soldiers would feel uneasy.

These violent elephants seemed to be born purely for destruction. When they walked on the road and looked at the trees around them, they had cruel eyes and a desire to destroy everything.

However... Master Ryan still let them carry a huge amount of rubble and rolling logs behind them, and they will eventually drop these things in places where roads have not yet been built.

"Captain Farrell, I wish you a triumphant return. I hope that when I see you again, I will be able to address you as Your Excellency."

Farrell laughed and responded to Ryan.

"Baron Ryan, your blessing is equal to the blessing of the gods. I believe I will become a legend."

Looking at the depressions on the ground left by the elephants and the accumulation of water, it is clear that this road is still not built perfectly.

But for now, this is the only way. We really can't treat Chaofan like a beast of burden, right?
"Alchemy and magic technology still need to continue to improve."

the other side.

Traveling through the mountains and forests, the elephants did not feel as uncomfortable as one might imagine. They were already accustomed to this kind of environment, and the camp in the Flying Wing Canyon was not much better.

In addition, since they were no longer within the scope of civilization, the Violent Elephant Riders no longer suppressed their nature and wantonly destroyed the surrounding rocks for a long time before they calmed down.

Farrell knew that this was not satisfaction, but the elephants needed the baptism of blood even more. They longed to bathe in blood and brutally tear apart the struggling and resisting flesh. That was the catharsis that the elephants needed.

It is precisely for this reason that the Violent Elephant Corps is not favored by the Empire, because every war is bloody and there are few spoils to pick up.

The same is true for those who are assigned to the Wing Canyon.

"Baron Enzo, you are the first fifth-class noble in my army in the past thirty years."

Farrell looked at Baron Enzo next to him, who was covered in dark red armor. He couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Farrell's call.

The Violent Elephant Corps is composed of Violent Elephants and Knights. I won't say much about the Violent Elephants, but even the Knights, almost none of them are commoners. They are all of noble blood. Some are children of nobles, and most of them are other people from the nobles' families.

In fact, the composition of the extraordinary legions is mostly like this. Regardless of whether a peasant can become a knight, those who can become a knight will gradually become members of the noble family, such as marrying a distant cousin of a noble.

So among so many noble candidates, there was not even a fifth-class noble, which still surprised Baron Enzo.

"Actually, I also thought before that Baron Enzo, you approached me in order to enter the Dragon Legion through me. I told you so much at that time just to keep you." Farrell said with a smile. He was not ordinary, but quite wise.

"The Violent Elephant Corps now has a fifth-rank noble. When the time comes, you will need to ask the Emperor for the military expenses of the Violent Elephant Corps, so that those cunning guys in the Imperial Capital will not reduce our wealth again and again."

Status is status, identity is identity, and the status of the fifth-class nobles is self-evident everywhere. Even if it is just a baron, that is an aristocrat who can directly meet the emperor.

Farrell's words also made Baron Enzo feel much more at ease. After all, although he had determination and courage, he was still afraid of death.

Legion Commander Farrell assigned him a violent elephant that was more powerful than the Golden Knight. There were only a few of these in the entire legion, so it could be considered a form of protection for him.

"Captain Farrell, when we go to the Andara Kingdom, does that count as declaring war on the kingdom?"

"No, we are not going to war with the Kingdom because we are going to the Unicorn Fortress."

"..."

The forests were wild and there were countless ferocious beasts, but the violent elephants moved freely among them, heading towards their destination.

A day later, the Violent Elephant Corps arrived at the territory of Grand Duke McReynolds. The legendary Grand Duke personally met with the commander of the Violent Elephant Corps and a fifth-rank noble of the Empire.

"You are a noble who dares to become a soldier in the legion. Your courage is no less than that of the original pioneering nobles."

Grand Duke McReynolds said this before looking at Legion Commander Farrell. This was also the etiquette of the nobility and a symbol of status that made him face the weaker Baron Enzo first.

Unless Farrell becomes a legend.

"Farrell, I've heard your name many times."

Farrell responded with a smile, saying:
"Thirty-five years ago, when I was only a silver knight, I also saw you, the Grand Duke, fighting against giants in the cold wind of the north. I still remember it vividly."

Grand Duke McReynolds reminisced, as if recalling some long-lost memory, and couldn't help but express his recognition of the legion commander.

"Not many people dared to watch from the sidelines at that time."

There weren't many, and each one was curious about whether he could defeat the giant legend.

So, Farrell is the only Silver Knight.

This made the Grand Duke look sideways. He thought that the leader of the Violent Elephant Legion in front of him was not as gentle as he appeared to be. He was even more crazy and violent in his heart, which was why he was able to control the Violent Elephant Legion.

The birth of the Extraordinary Legion is a test of wealth, but if there are no suitable candidates, then wealth is meaningless.

This is the case with the Violent Elephants. If Commander Farrell does not have a suitable successor, the Violent Elephants will be forgotten or even become history after his death.

Because the violent elephant's nature and desires were mostly suppressed by him alone.

He is a holy knight, or rather, the king of these five thousand violent elephants.

During the welcome banquet, the Grand Duke of the Griffin and the Commander of the Violent Elephant Legion discussed the current situation of the Andara Kingdom. What could not be avoided was the alien god that now stood between the Grand Duke and the King.

"I have been looking for His identity. If we can know His identity, perhaps we can try to kill Him."

"Kill the body of a god, Farrell, and you might be granted legendary power."

Farrell's eyes lit up and he said:

“Maybe I really did bring His name with me.”

He took out a rotten book from his arms, with only the last page still standing.

"This is a gift that Baron Ryan asked me to give to the Grand Duke. It seems to be a return for a previous gift."

"Surtur..."

The Grand Duke looked at the last page of the book. The power contained in it was not enough to make such a powerful legend like him call out to that existence involuntarily.

After weathering the book, the Duke said with satisfaction:
"Lord Ryan is a friend of McReynolds, and his gift is very appropriate."

He suddenly felt that the belief in foreign gods became much easier to deal with.

Then Farrell said what he really wanted to say.

"According to the order of the Emperor of the Empire, as the commander of the Empire's Extraordinary Legion, I will inform Grand Duke McReynolds, that is, you, that the Violent Elephant Legion will go to the Unicorn Fortress to help Grand Duke McReynolds resist the enemies in the south."

"I will make sure that Unicorn Fortress will not be lost from my hands."

The Grand Duke's face also fell silent and became somewhat cold.

"I invited you here to deal with the Holy See, not those nobles."

"There's no need to worry about the nobles in the south. They can't break through the Unicorn Fortress which is guarded by 50,000 troops."

Farrell shook his head and said:
"This is the order of the Emperor of the Empire. I cannot change it. Similarly, Grand Duke, you cannot change it either."

At this moment, the oppression from the empire fell upon the nobles who did not belong to the empire. Even the legendary Grand Duke, the magician with the title of "Wind Emperor", could not resist the will of the empire.

The Griffin Duke was silent for a long time, took a deep breath and said:

"I will have Otto lead the army back when you arrive at the Unicorn Fortress."

"You must leave 10,000 slave soldiers behind. My Violent Elephant Corps will not defend the fortress. I will help you defeat the four noble territories in the south."

"I see."

Grand Duke McReynolds felt extremely aggrieved at the moment. Before, he was communicating with Farrell as a legendary magician as if he were a servant, but in the blink of an eye, with the support of the empire's background, he was helpless.

The Flor Empire. Even though he had traveled to many dimensions, he could only find the existence of such an empire. Its power was enough to suffocate even legends.

Farrell was no longer strong, and said with a smile:

"I believe that with the help of the Empire, your wish will be fulfilled."

It will be completed, but who knows how many people will die by then, the Grand Duke thought to himself.

"Maybe he is also so frustrated."

The Grand Duke suddenly thought of the king, who had a court priest beside him who represented the Holy See. There were more than 500 churches of all sizes in the kingdom, and every clergyman was not subject to the king's rule.

Early the next morning, the Violent Elephant Corps headed for the Unicorn Fortress with a large amount of food. The fertile land in the Andara Kingdom was still abundant, especially in and around McReynolds' territory. The Griffin Mountains blocked all the cold winds from the north, allowing them to afford to raise so many griffins.

This place is not far from the Unicorn Fortress. Although the speed of the violent elephants is a bit slow, it only takes half a day to arrive.

Of course, the arrival of the Violent Elephant Legion could not be concealed from the kingdom. The arrival of an extraordinary army from the empire finally made the nobles in the kingdom nervous and panic.

So much so that...the army that the king gathered to deal with McReynolds received a second increase.

"The traitor let the wolf in. He actually let the imperial army enter the kingdom's land! This is a betrayal to all the nobles!"

This time, it was not just the king who was clamoring, but also many nobles.

Wars of faith will lead to the transfer of power, but wars between nobles will cause bloodlines and inheritance to wander.

The last thing the kingdom's nobles want to see is the arrival of nobles from outside the kingdom.

But in response to this reaction, Grand Duke McReynolds responded to all the nobles with the same words.

"You think this is a war between the Kingdom and the Empire? Then who betrayed me when Carlos from the south entered my Griffin Mountains?"

Carlos in the south is also a noble outside the kingdom.

For a moment, the nobles were silent.
