"Lan Lan!" The first moment Queen Rong Xue saw Jia Linglan, she rushed towards her and hugged her.
¡°Thank you, Great God Mingqiong, for letting you come back to me!¡± Queen Rongxue danced happily.
Jia Lingyao stood nearby and observed that when her mother mentioned the "Great God of Mingqiong", her sister's expression suddenly became complicated and gloomy. Ordinarily she was the most loyal believer of the Great God? What happened to her?
"Lan Mei, how did you come back? Who are the enemies?"
Queen Rongxue glared at her eldest daughter angrily. The second daughter had just come back, exhausted physically and mentally, but asking such a question, wouldn't it reveal the scars in her heart?
Jia Linglan raised her head and said: "Queen mother, sister, with the current strength of the empire, it is impossible to fight against the enemy. The enemies of the empire are composed of undead and wild beasts"
After listening to Jia Linglan¡¯s description, Jia Lingyao shouted out of control: ¡°This is impossible!¡±
The Necron Warriors were once the Empire's most dangerous enemies. But twenty years ago, Emperor Shenhong led the Xilin Legion to uproot all the nomadic tribes in the west. All the magicians were burned to death by the Xuanhuo troops. The magic of controlling the undead warriors has been lost. The only remaining survivors were under imperial surveillance, and numbered only fifty-five households. What's more, the enemy has invested more than 50,000 troops, and it is impossible for so many magicians to control it.
As for the living dead described by Jia Linglan who have both strength and agility, and can swallow flesh and blood to maintain the vitality of the body, this has never been heard of in history. Jia Lingyao and Rong Xue already suspected whether their second daughter was hallucinating.
"Common sense records the known past, but it cannot be used to deny the unknown in the fog. What carries existence is the eternal and unchanging heaven in the universe. The badge of Haitang has been shrouded in shadow. Mother, sister, you must be careful ¡±
Jia Linglan gently broke away from the embrace of Queen Rongxue, and with a gentle step, she retreated to the entrance of the palace. She bowed deeply to Rong Xue and Jia Lingyao and said: "The last time I was sent to the enemy, I had fulfilled my responsibilities as an empire princess. Today's reminder is my obligation as a daughter and sister. From now on, the empire will There is no more Emperor Huayue, there is only the explorer of heaven¡ªJia Linglan.¡±
She looked around the splendid palace and sighed: "I have seen that prosperous cities and peaceful villages will all be reduced to ruins under the iron heel of wild beasts and corpses. The once master of the earth will be deprived of life and dignity. Cherish it. The last happiness"
Jia Linglan turned and left so fast that Rong Xue and Jia Lingyao could hardly see her clearly.
Queen Rongxue seemed to have been drained of all her strength. She fell limply on the chair and looked sadly at the direction Jia Linglan was leaving: "Lanlan, why did you leave your mother"
Jia Lingyao's mood was extremely chaotic, but the expression on his face was very calm. She gently lifted her mother up and comforted her: "Queen Mother, don't worry. My sister's current strength has surpassed the most powerful warrior I have ever seen. She will not be in danger. Perhaps she foresees it. The empire is in danger, so I left the royal family.¡±
Queen Rongxue grabbed her daughter's hand and asked: "If there really is such an enemy, how can the empire stop it?"
Jialingyao said calmly and resolutely: "No matter what kind of enemy he is, he will always have his weaknesses. The Jialing royal family will not surrender in front of the enemy!"
??¡ª¡ª
The return and departure of Emperor Huayue were not known to the outside world. However, the Jialing royal family stopped the search order for Huayue Emperor Ji, which made the government and the public think wildly.
Emperor Wu Fengji accelerated the speed of arms construction. A forest belt two miles wide was built outside the imperial capital to facilitate the Leopard Cavalry to display its strength. The Warlock Guild blessed the forest with various magic circles, turning the entire forest into a terrifying magic fortress.
??¡ª¡ª
It has been more than a year since the first tragedy in the Imperial Capital, and the people of the Empire have returned to a peaceful and peaceful life. At this moment, a merchant brought back a magical video recording the experience of Emperor Huayue from the southern desert area. In the video, Emperor Huayue is dressed like a slave girl and is sold to a desert tribe.
When Queen Rongxue and Jia Lingyao received the information, the magic video had already spread. While they sympathized with Jialinglan's experience, they were also outraged by the humiliation suffered by the Ruitang royal family. Jia Lingyao ordered the Nanxiang Army to dispatch immediately to clean up the entire desert. He also issued an order in the name of the empire, requiring all tribes to move to the north at once. Those who disobeyed were enemies of the empire.
At the same time, Jia Lingyao ordered the destruction of all oases in his personal name as marshal of the legion. As expected, after a month, there was no longer any green in the entire desert in the south, and there was no non-toxic water source. She wants to useThe method of clearing the wilderness makes it impossible for enemies hiding in the desert to survive.
Jia Linglan's most loyal admirer, Kaaba, the commander of the Ten Thousand Cavalry, asked for orders to go to war, but Jia Lingyao flatly refused: "How can a person who can't even control his own emotions fight a successful war? If you dare to go out on your own, Go to the desert, then the Nanxiang Legion will be honored to accept the order: use all means to kill the empire's ten thousand cavalry commanders."
Tribes were driven out from the depths of the desert by heavily armed soldiers, trees were cut down and burned, wells were filled up, and water springs that could not be cut off were poisoned. Wherever the legion passed, the lush oases turned yellow, all life was strangled, and even the birds in the sky couldn't find a place to live, and finally fell on the dead yellow sand.
On the eighth day, the 15th Camel Corps belonging to the Nanxiang Corps arrived in the middle of the desert. The young officer reported: "We found a tribal camp. It's strange that there are no old people and no children here"
Strange ripples appeared on the crystal ball of the communication, the officer's voice disappeared, and the image flashed frequently. Behind the officer, a blur of yellow appeared, like sand and dust blown by a strong wind approaching quickly. The officer turned his head in confusion and saw countless tiny black dots flying across the sky like locusts.
The image in the crystal ball flashed away. Before the image disappeared, the correspondent clearly saw a sharp arrow piercing the soldier's throat - the sharp arrow had no tail feathers! Only the Nanxiang Legion's own crossbows use this kind of crossbow arrow with an astonishing range!
After receiving the report, Jia Lingyao ordered that all units of the Nanxiang Legion must be assigned more than two senior warlocks, and they must always keep in touch with the military headquarters no matter what the situation.
The next day, November 12, an army 200 miles north of the 15th Camel Corps was attacked and the entire army was also wiped out. But the senior warlock sent this time was still on the way and had no information about the battle.
On November 15th, the imperial garrison stationed on the southern border was suddenly attacked by artillery fire. The crystal ball transmitted images for half an hour. However, the attack occurred at night. Apart from the overwhelming artillery fire, no trace of the enemy could be seen at all.
On October 18, a town five hundred miles away from the border was attacked. Two knights with more than a thousand people resisted for only ten minutes before being completely wiped out. But a crystal ball transmitted this image: an enemy soldier over two meters tall and covered in black armor brandished a long knife and split a heavily armored knight into two halves.
On October 22nd, a patrolling knights encountered an enemy army in the wild. This knights was lucky enough to have a Skywalker, who saw with his own eyes an invisible army crossing the mountains and forests - "At least there are Fifty thousand people. All of them are cavalry." The Skywalker shuddered as he spoke, "There are human limbs hanging under their saddles They eat human flesh like wild beasts"
The enemy who had been hiding for a year was finally forced out, but no one was relieved. In just eleven days, the enemy troops had already traveled thousands of miles within the empire, approaching the imperial capital like sharp blades.
