If a war breaks out, both he and his wife will have to go to the battlefield.
Sandra hugged her husband tightly from behind.
"The Garrison Fort is the gateway to the Principality. Your Excellency the Duke will not sit idly by and watch it be razed to the ground by the demons. Go to the Crystal Temple and do what you must do. We will overcome this crisis as we have in the past!"
With that, Sandra let go of her husband.
Morse took a deep breath.
He stood up and strode out.
"Ma'am, I'll be back soon!"
Looking at her husband's departing back, a trace of helplessness flashed in Sandra's eyes.
If the demons hadn't suddenly occupied the Southern Wasteland.
Marching towards the garrison fort again and again.
She and her husband already have children of their own.
Unlike now, Earl Morse, who is almost forty years old, still has no children of his own.
As a countess, it is her responsibility to expand the family.
She also hopes to give birth to an heir for the family.
The news of the demon attack quickly spread throughout the garrison fort.
For the next few days, the garrison was in an uproar.
The troops at the garrison fort are preparing for battle.
Some businessmen are watching, while others are fleeing.
While the outbreak of war is a great time to make a lot of money, the risks are also great.
Once the garrison fort is breached, there will be no place to bury the dead.
The news that the demons were attacking again soon reached the city of Aobenro.
------
Troll Mountains.
Windward Valley, afternoon.
Dust billows in the Grand Canyon.
It was like a sandstorm blowing up, spreading from east to west.
That was not a sandstorm, but a huge marching army.
The long marching team stretched for more than ten kilometers.
Wherever it passed, dust rolled.
"We'll be able to reach the Garrison Fort tomorrow!"
At the front of the army, more than ten riders were marching slowly.
"This time we will definitely be able to capture the garrison fort in one fell swoop!"
"Lord Douglas, it seems that humans intend to defend to the death this time."
The demon army encountered many human outposts along the way.
The outposts were empty.
All the soldiers originally stationed in the outpost have been evacuated.
Such an action makes people think of something.
Douglas raised his head slightly and looked towards the end of the Windward Valley ahead.
The Windward Valley is not straight.
It's an arch.
Therefore, only the mountain can be seen at the end of the Grand Canyon.
"Humans are truly foolish. How could a mere city wall possibly stop us?"
"That's perfect! Once the city wall is breached, human morale will surely plummet."
"Lord Douglas, is it time?"
Tiemian looked up at Lord Douglas in front of him.
As soon as Tiemian said this, all the ghost beastmen looked at Douglas.
Including Agatha who was by Douglas' side.
Chapter 207 Evil Stone
Douglas smiled as he faced the gazes of all the ghost beastmen.
"The Evil Stone has collected enough souls. It's time to destroy the crystal!"
Upon hearing this, the ghost beastmen looked excited.
As early as ten years ago, the demons had the ability to break through the garrison fort.
The reason why they fight with humans again and again.
Just to allow the evil stone to absorb enough souls.
And now, the evil stone has finally devoured enough souls.
------
The eastern border of the Principality of Ilysis.
Troll Mountains, Windward Valley, Garrison Fort.
The news of the demons' attack cast a murderous aura over the garrison fort.
Early in the morning, the Black Stone City Wall was filled with soldiers wearing blue shirts and armor and holding spears.
In addition to soldiers, there are also a large number of adventurers and temple priests.
At first glance, the figures on the city wall were densely packed.
"Are they really coming?"
"It's really here!"
On a certain section of the city wall, some adventurers were discussing.
This was the first time that the demons came to the city.
In the past, Duke Morse would always take the initiative.
Use the complex terrain of the Troll Mountains to fight against the demons.
But this time, Duke Morse chose to rely on the city walls for defense.
"Why is there no support from the Papal States?"
"In the past, when the demons launched a large-scale attack, the Papal State would send powerful Holy Scripture troops to support them. Why are there no Holy Scripture troops from the Papal State this time?"
The Papal State has six canonical military organizations.
They are the Scripture of Light, the Scripture of Darkness, the Scripture of Water, the Scripture of Fire, the Scripture of Earth, and the Scripture of Whispering Wind.
They correspond to the six elements of darkness, light, wind, fire, water and earth.
Every member of the Holy Scripture is the strongest among the strong.
If the Knights Templar were the regular armed forces of the Papal States.
The six sacred texts are elite organizations.
At this time, on the city wall above the Blackstone City Gate.
Morse was dressed in silver armor and held a sword and shield.
Sandra wore a blue robe and held a staff.
"My dear, is there any news from the Papal States?"
Sandra was a little concerned that the Holy Canon troops from the Papal States had not arrived yet.
The Papal States has never been absent in previous wars with the demons.
The six sacred texts were almost used in turns.
Without the powerful holy book masters of the Papal States, the combat effectiveness of the human side would be reduced by at least half.
The role of elite warriors in war is too important.
And every member of the Temple of the Papal States is an elite and powerful person.
Members at the captain level are even king-level or saint-level.
Morse's face darkened slightly, his eyes fixed on the Grand Canyon in the distance.
"Madam, I'm afraid the Holy Scripture Army of the Papal States won't be coming."
"why?"
Sandra looked puzzled and bewildered.
The Papal State has never been absent from previous wars with the demons.
There is no reason to be absent this time.
"I received news from the Duke that the Papal States is lobbying all nations to launch a holy war against the Outer Realm. They need a defeat to warn the nations and urge them to strengthen their cooperation. The Garrison Fort has become the perfect pawn to sacrifice."
Sandra's heart sank at her husband's answer.
She didn't expect that Garrison Fort would become a pawn in the hands of big men.
What was even more unexpected was that the "Garrison Fort", an important eastern border gateway of the Principality of Isis, would be abandoned.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry, if I could become stronger..."
Sandra tapped her husband's back lightly with the staff in her hand.
"My dear, it is also my responsibility to protect my people. I will always stand by you!"
Morse laughed to himself at his wife's voice behind him.
As a man, he didn't see things as clearly as his wife.
Morse took a deep breath and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Then let them come!"
As soon as Morse finished speaking, dust suddenly rolled up at the end of the Grand Canyon.
It was as if a sandstorm was sweeping in from afar.
"Here they come! It's the demon army!"
There were bursts of exclamations from the city wall.
In the Grand Canyon in the distance.
A long black dragon is rushing towards this side.
The arrival of the demon army made the soldiers on the city wall nervous.
They looked in horror at the overwhelming dark figures in the distant canyon.
Although there is a tall city wall at the foot.
But the dark army of demons still made them feel terrified.
As time passed, the demon army was getting closer and closer to the garrison fort.
The marching team gradually transformed into a horizontal offensive line.
Just when the demon army was at the gates of the city.
Several figures appeared on a hill in the distance.
Standing on the top of the hill, Li Meng looked at the garrison fort in the distance.
